Chapter 800: Inn
(Girls' Literature)
Early the next morning, Chanyi and her party set off.
It takes three days to travel from western Sichuan to southern Sichuan, they walked for a day, and when the sky was just dark, they passed through a small town called Xuejiazhuang, Chu Shaoyuan asked people to stop here and prepare to stay here for one night, and then hurry tomorrow.
Along the way, although it is not considered to be a meal and sleeping, but it is inconvenient to go out in the end, staying in the inn of Xuejiazhuang, people go in and out to move some belongings in and out, which is very eye-catching, but it makes this town a little more lively.
"Princess, the bedding is all laid out, and the hot water is ready, you bathe first, and the slave and maid go to the stove to see if there is anything to eat." Jinping is not there, only Jin Se followed the food, clothing, housing and transportation of Chan Yi, Jin Se knew that this was Chan Yi heavy her, so she was very careful in everything, for fear that something would go wrong.
Chanyi nodded: "Don't worry about this, you go and ask your grandmother to see if she has anything she wants to eat, send some soothing incense over, I don't know if they are used to it, if there is anything wrong, just come and tell me." ”
Jin Se answered "yes" and turned to do it.
After Chu Shaoyuan entered the inn, he went directly to Xia Mingchen to discuss things, and was not in the room, leaving Chanyi and a few maids in the room, he couldn't help but feel that this guest room was unfamiliar, and it was a little uncomfortable, especially in the inn, although it was clean, whether it was a table, chair, bench or bed, there was an unfamiliar smell, which made Chanyi very uncomfortable.
But fortunately, with the futon with him, he asked people to change the bedding he was used to, and smelled the familiar aroma above, and Chanyi's heart gradually calmed down.
After a while, Jin Se came in and said: "Xu is a day's car, Mrs. Yan is a little uncomfortable, the slave maid has asked people to prepare hot water for Mrs. Yan and Miss Yan, and An Shenxiang has also been sent, and Mrs. Yan also asked the slave and maid to thank the princess." ”
Chanyi frowned slightly, Mrs. Yan's body has always been not very good, although she has been recuperating in Yizhou City, but when there are many things, it is inevitable that she will not be able to take care of it, "You let the stove cook a bowl of vegetable porridge and send it to your grandmother to eat, and the two of us will take care of it from here." ”
After speaking, I didn't forget to remind him: "Use the pot we brought to cook, don't use the bowl and chopsticks on the stove after cooking, the ingredients are more careful, my grandmother has always had a weak spleen and stomach, and the food is not suitable, and she will definitely not be able to sleep well at night." ”
Jin Se hurriedly went down to make arrangements.
Chu Shaoyuan entered the guest room in the heavy twilight, and when he came in, Chan Yi had just finished bathing, and he was sitting on the small pestle in the guest room and asked a few maids to take dry towels and twist their hair.
He originally took a step, when he saw Chan Yi sitting on the stool, he involuntarily stopped, only stood so far away and watched her carelessly apply balm to his face, and his voice was softly talking to a few maids, the room was filled with a fragrance after bathing, and some of the balms and grease powder used with him were also neatly placed on the table, and there was a warmth hidden in the mess, so that people didn't feel like they were in an inn after they came in, but like at home.
Jinxin found him as early as Chu Shaoyuan came in, and saluted him with a closed expression, and several maids noticed Chu Shaoyuan and stopped their work to salute him.
"You're back," Chanyi stood up, "but do you want to take a bath?" I asked someone to prepare hot water for you......"
Chu Shaoyuan interrupted her with a smile and said, "Don't worry, you are busy with you, don't worry about me, I'll just wipe it." ”
Chanyi nodded, ignored him anymore, and sat back on the pestle, always feeling uncomfortable if her hair was not wrenched.
When his hair was dried and he found that he was still staring at her, Chanyi couldn't help but smile and asked him, "What do you want to eat?" My grandmother was a little tired after a day's journey, so I asked Jin Se to cook some vegetable porridge on the stove, and I will serve you a bowl when it is ready. ”
Chu Shaoyuan walked up to her and said casually: "I can eat anything, but your body is not very good, but you are tired after a day's journey?" ”
Originally, I went to southern Sichuan to escape the summer because she couldn't stand the heat, so she would have this trip, if she was tired and sick because of the rush on the way, wouldn't she put the cart before the horse!
Chanyi smiled: "I'm so squeamish, aren't we also in a hurry all day when we come?" ”
How can this be the same? When he came, he was in a hurry because he was unprepared, so she was caught by Gu, so she would rush so hard, not to mention that the weather at that time was not as hot as it is now.
"It's all me, tired of you being wronged like this." Chu Shaoyuan looked at her apologetically.
Chanyi glanced at him and understood the meaning of his words, and couldn't help but sneer: "According to what you said, do I have to apologize to you, if it weren't for my poor health and can't stand the heat, you don't have to be so embarrassed." ”
"What are you talking about?" Chu Shaoyuan was busy covering her mouth, and he couldn't hear her being so polite to himself.
Chanyi pursed her lips and smiled, looking at him with disgust, and her expression was a little charming.
Chu Shaoyuan's heart fluttered, his eyes became a little dark, and he leaned over, wanting to hug her, but was pushed away by her disgust.
"Look at the dust on your body, it's not dirty, hurry up and wash up!"
Chu Shaoyuan knew that she had always loved to be clean, and if she carried a body of dust, she would definitely not let herself get close, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she said with a smile: "Ask someone to cook a bowl of noodles for me in a while, and today I have been gnawing dry food with my eldest brother for a day, and I already want to eat a mouthful of hot food." ”
Chan Yi responded, "Keep that you will have noodles to eat after bathing." ”
She asked Xiaolan to ask Xia Mingchen if they wanted to eat noodles, these little gentlemen talked together all day long, and the taste must be similar, since they all have to make it, they simply did it together.
Xiaolan came back and replied: "The eldest prince of Xia said that the princess didn't bother, they had already used it at the bottom of the inn, and asked the slave maid to reply to you, let you settle early tonight, and you will have to travel for a day tomorrow, it will be very hard, tell you to pay attention to your body, don't get tired." ”
Since the eldest brother said so, he must have dealt with a few of them.
Chanyi sighed in her heart, Chu Shaoyuan is in charge of her, and he will never be wronged in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, but the eldest brother is away all the year round, he is always alone, and there are a few hairy little guys around him to serve, and I don't know what hardships he has suffered in Fujian.
Xia Mingchen and Xiao Pei were not in their room at the moment, but in the backyard of the inn, each wearing a black skit, they were quietly lurking on the roof, like a wolf waiting for the prey to enter, motionless and silent, almost blending in with the night behind them.
Today happens to be the first quarter of the moon, although the stars are very bright, but they do not shine the shadow of ordinary people, so people who walk at night will inevitably carry a lantern to illuminate, in the inn that is gradually quieting down, like fireflies flickering and flickering, flashing in the dark aisle.
After a long time, probably out of patience, Xia Mingchen glanced sideways at Xiao Pei: "Why haven't you seen anyone yet?" ”
Obviously, it was found out that it was done tonight, why did he squat for two hours without seeing half a figure, could it be that the information was fake?
Xiao Pei's voice was lowered: "Don't be impatient, the information that the prince has heard has always been accurate, wait a minute." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Jian Anli, who was lying on the other side, immediately gestured to them.
People are coming, don't talk!
The surroundings immediately fell silent, except for the sound of crickets sounding from time to time in the dark night.
A horse-drawn carriage appeared at the back door of the inn, a very ordinary carriage, without any decoration around it, and it looked half-old and not new, and if it was seen on the street, it would hardly be noticed.
At this moment a woman slowly walked down from the carriage, holding a package in her hand.
Xia Mingchen was happy in his heart, it was her!
Watching the woman walk into the inn step by step, he was just about to get up, but he was immediately grabbed by Xiao Pei.
Xia Mingchen couldn't help but glare at him.
Xiao Pei looked in the direction of the woman, snorted at him, and motioned for him to look.
I saw that the woman was standing at the door of the inn, and did not enter the inn directly, but looked around a few times, and then walked in cautiously, with a solemn expression on her face, with a bit of secrecy.
Xia Mingchen's eyes widened slightly in surprise, the woman had obviously stepped into the inn just now, he was watching, but when did he retreat again?
The carriage did not mean to go until the woman had entered the inn, and the coachman sat and dozed off on the wheels of the carriage, and the night breeze was breezy and a little cooler than the room, and in a short time the even voice of the coachman reached the ears of the four little gentlemen.
Seeing that the woman was hidden in the inn, the four little Langjun jumped down from the roof.
The four of them looked at each other, Xiao Pei gestured, the other three nodded at him, and the figures of the four disappeared into the dark aisle in an instant.
Chanyi slept in a daze, always felt as if someone was staring outside the window, and felt uncomfortable, plus the room was a little hot, she turned over, and wanted to get closer to Chu Shaoyuan, but as soon as she touched the bed, she found that it was empty, and she woke up suddenly.
It was dark in the room, there was not a single light left at home as usual, and it was pitch black everywhere.
Because she had to go in a hurry the next day, and Chu Shaoyuan was by her side, she didn't deliberately arrange a maid for the night vigil, but she was really shocked to find that Chu Shaoyuan was not by her side halfway through sleep.
"Yi, Yishu......" she couldn't help but call softly.
Chu Shaoyuan didn't answer her as usual, the room was dark, and he could barely see his five fingers.
In such a strange inn, this room is like a monster that eats people, Chanyi immediately sat still, she groped to light the lamp, but there was no light in the room at all, she just got out of bed and didn't take two steps, she hit the pestle, making a loud sound.
The door was pushed open, and in the faint starlight of the hallway, only a tall silhouette could be seen standing in the doorway, looking in her direction.
Chanyi's heart suddenly tightened like a full bowstring, as if it would burst open in the next moment.
