Doctor Xianggong, the goddess of poisonous belly

Chapter 71 Miss Ah Nuan, My Hands Are Dirty (4)
Only then did Si Jixia turn around and look at Dong Nuan Gu who had been standing behind him and watching him quietly, and while pulling the hood on his head, he said calmly: "They are just working for money, spare their lives and hope Miss Ah Nuan I don't mind, as for the employer, I will find out, there will be no more trouble, let's go back to the inn."

Dong Nuan didn't say anything, just nodded, walked to his side, and then he walked side by side with her in the direction of the inn.

He didn't ask her questions about how she could talk.

She also didn't ask him about his martial arts skills.

They didn't talk about what just happened.

They just walked silently, walking side by side, but like two strangers.

When they returned to the inn, there were only a few men drinking at the innermost table in the hall on the first floor, and the shopkeeper was making drinks, but the waiter was nowhere to be seen. Seeing Si Jixia, the shopkeeper rushed to greet him, smiled kindly and said, "Guest The officer is back? Do you want dinner?"

The innkeeper saw the injury on his left arm after he finished asking, and asked in surprise, "Oh, guest officer, are you injured!?"

Si Jixia didn't answer him, but said in a deep voice: "Shopkeeper, can someone check out the guest room today?"

"Yes, yes." The shopkeeper nodded hurriedly.

"Open one." Si Jixia said, and the shopkeeper looked as embarrassed as yesterday, "But guest officer, all the servants are leaving today, what do you want?"

"It's okay."

"Okay, let's open it for the guest officer." The shopkeeper said as he took out an oil lamp from under the counter to light it, and then led Si Jixia to the direction of the backyard, "The guest officer comes with me."

Before walking to the backyard with the store, Si Jixia said indifferently to Dongnuangu: "After walking for a day, Ah Nuan must be tired, go upstairs and go back to the room to rest, and come down to call me if you have anything to do."

Dongnuan didn't move, so Si Jixia didn't leave until she went upstairs, and Si Jixia followed the shopkeeper to the backyard after making sure that she had returned to the house.

The so-called lower house is a row of mud-tiled houses with stables next to it. The house is only four feet square, and can only accommodate a single bed. There is no room for other things except a bed. The roof is very low and the roof is very low. There are no windows in the house, and there is still a musty smell in the room, as if no one has slept in it for a long time, and even the air seems clammy and cold.

Si Jixia didn't mind, and put the burden on his shoulders on the bed when he entered the room. This reassured the shopkeeper, who was still worried that he would make a few coppers less tonight, and the bed was turned black when he lifted it. He put the oil lamp in his hand on the corner of the bed, and then said with a smile: "Guest officer is good to have a rest, if you need anything, come to the front and find me."

"Shopkeeper, please slow down." Si Jixia called the storekeeper when he turned around and was about to walk out of the damp and cold room. The storekeeper turned his head, "What else is there for you, sir?"

Si Jixia had already raised his hand to touch his waist, but suddenly lowered his hand, and said politely to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper Lao, bring me a pot of hot water later, and also give some advice to the girl who lives upstairs. A bucket of hot water for her to take a bath, and if it’s convenient, bring me a clean cotton cloth, and the money needed will be paid to the store tomorrow morning, and if the store is inconvenient, I can pay the store now.”

"That's not necessary, that's not necessary." The shopkeeper quickly waved his hand, not a difficult person, but smiled understandingly, "It's not a big deal, the guest officer just needs to rest first. , I will tell the little tiger to fetch water for the guest officer, as for the clean cotton cloth, I need to look for it."

"Thank you for the store." Si Jixia's tone was still polite, and his attitude made the store feel embarrassed to ask him to settle the money now.

After leaving the room where Si Jixia was, the shopkeeper took a deep breath and then took a deep breath, as if the air in the room was so bad that he didn't dare to take a few more breaths.

When the shopkeeper returned to the front lobby, he ordered the second brother, Xiao Huzi, to bring hot water to Si Jixia and Dongnuangu, and was about to go upstairs to find clean cotton cloth for Si Jixia, when Dongnuangu left. When she came down, the storekeeper saw her and hurriedly asked, "Is there something wrong, Miss?"

Dong Nuangu saw the pen and paper on the counter, so he walked over, raised his finger to point to the pen and paper on the counter, the storekeeper looked at her and then at the pen and paper he used for bookkeeping, and after looking at it three times, he said in doubt: " The girl wants to use this pen and paper?"

Dong Nuangu nodded slightly, and the shopkeeper hurriedly said with a smile: "Use it, use it, it doesn't matter."

So Dong Nuangu picked up a pen and wrote a few words on the paper, then moved the book to the front of the store. The shopkeeper took a look and asked, "Miss, do you want to find a medical center?"

Dong Nuangu nodded again, but the shopkeeper was enthusiastic, and immediately walked out of the inn door to show her the way, "Girl, go straight along this road, turn left at the second fork ahead, there is a medical clinic there , very close, but I don’t know if it’s closed at this hour.”

Dong Nuan therefore smiled at the store owner to express his gratitude, and then walked along the road he pointed. The store owner looked at her back for a moment, then shook his head slightly, and said to himself, how can the young couple still return? It's really strange.

Dong Nuan didn't go there for a long time, but returned to the inn after a quarter of an hour, holding a paper bag in his hand, instead of going upstairs, he went straight to the backyard.

The backyard was dark, except for a dilapidated lantern hanging under the barn of the stable. It didn’t look like there was a guest room occupied, but there was a little tiger in the stable feeding the horses with hay, and returning the hay while feeding. The horses talk.

Dong Nuan frowned slightly, and was about to turn around and go back to the front hall to ask where the servant Si Jixia lived, when the little tiger in the stable happened to be coming out after feeding the horse, and when he looked up, he saw him standing by the door. Because of the warmth of winter, he quickly ran up to her and asked her enthusiastically, "Did the young lady come to see your husband? That's where he lives. The row of houses next to the stables is the first one from the south." Two."

Xiao Huzi's enthusiasm is entirely because he thinks Dongnuan is too beautiful and good-looking, and he just wants to say a few more words to her to feast his eyes, and he has no dirty thoughts at all.

Little Huzi pointed to the row of houses next to the stables while talking, Dong Nuan looked in the direction of his finger, only to find that there was another row of houses next to the stables, because it was too dark, she didn't pay attention to it just now When he arrived, the little tiger said again: "Is it too dark for the girl to see the way? It's all right, there is a light in the stable, I'll bring it to the girl to light the way."

The little tiger was about to run to the stables when he said that, when he suddenly heard the voice of the shopkeeper calling him loudly from the front hall, which made him scratch his head in embarrassment, and looked at Dong Nuangu in apology, "I'm sorry, little lady, the shopkeeper Call me, I have to go ahead, if the girl really can't see the way, you can use the lamp in the stable, remember to hang it back after use."
