Chapter Seventy-Three: Undercurrent 1

"Little Er, settle the bill. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "When the food is almost finished, Tie Xuan beckoned the shopkeeper to come to settle the bill, put one hand into his arms, and squeezed the money bag tightly, feeling a little nervous, I don't know if the money is enough.

"Master, it's a total of ten taels of silver, whether to settle it now or wait until you check out." The shopkeeper swept the table and said with a smile.

"Uh, what did you say?" The shopkeeper's words made Tie Xuan touch the money bag for a moment, and said with a puzzled face.

"Uh, this master, the little one is to say, the meal money can be settled after the house is returned in the future, of course, the master can also calculate it alone now." Regarding Tie Xuan's question, the shopkeeper didn't dare to slack off, and said busily.

"Oh, that's right, that's okay, let's count it all in the future." Hearing the words of the shopkeeper, Tie Xuan realized that he seemed to have made a mistake, but he didn't plan to say anything in front of the shopkeeper, he just waved his hand and signaled the other party to leave.

Regarding Tie Xuan's somewhat contradictory behavior, the shopkeeper was strange but had no intention of asking, the world of the two was different, in his eyes, no matter what Tie Xuan did, it should have deep meaning.

"This, scholar, let's go out for a walk." Tie Xuan smiled at the scholar beside him, he didn't know if the other party was aware of his predicament, embarrassed in front of a woman, no matter what the other party's attitude was, he felt very ashamed, and secretly vowed in his heart that he would make more money in the future.

"Yes, Childe." Shuxiang said lightly, her face was calm, she didn't have time to pay attention to Tie Xuan's thoughts now, and her mind had already fallen into endless deep thoughts because of the conversation between a few people at the next table just now.

In the crowded inn, all this happened like a splash of a small stone on the rough waves, and no one cared about it.

Walking on the street, the flow of people is endless, busy and tight, and all kinds of novelty are so attractive in the shouting and shouting of the hawkers. It's just that the two people who came out of the inn at this moment have their own thoughts, and they look at everything in front of them casually, and the atmosphere is silent for a while.

Tie Xuan came to Jiulian Mountain for the first time, and he had never seen anything here, although he walked roughly through the village last night, but the excitement at night and during the day was not the same. In addition, Master Mo and the third brother were not by his side at this time, and he only felt like a bird out of the cage, extremely free. Not to mention that he is accompanied by a beautiful girl, even though Tie Xuan does not understand the relationship between men and women, but everyone has a love for beauty, looking at the envious eyes cast around him, he is extremely proud and proud in his heart.

The two walked and strolled, and after a while, they came to a store selling clothes, Tie Xuan glanced at the book fragrance beside him, and then strode inside.

"Childe, do you want to buy clothes?" After shopping for a while, Shuxiang had calmed down and asked with a smile.

"It's not me, it's you, you see that your clothes are torn, shouldn't you buy a new one?" Tie Xuan smiled, glanced at the skin exposed by the torn clothes, and then hurriedly turned his head and said.

"Uh, buy it for me?" Shuxiang was a little surprised when she heard this, glanced at herself, and then came into contact with Tie Xuan's dodging gaze, and instantly understood the other party's unfinished words.

"I'm just a servant he bought, he said before that he wanted to let me go free, and now he wants to buy me clothes, what is this person's intentions, is it possible that he knows my identity?" Shuxiang secretly guessed Tie Xuan's intentions, and forgot to take the other party's words for a while.

"No, he can't know who I am, so why is he so nice to me?" For Tie Xuan's every move, Shuxiang began to be a little puzzled at this time, she came out of that place and couldn't understand Tie Xuan's simple kindness, she only felt that this person's words and deeds were very strange.

"Two guest officers, please inside, the clothes in the small shop are good and cheap, the children are not bullied, and you are satisfied." As soon as the two stepped into the store, a plump middle-aged woman immediately greeted them, smiling like a flower and full of enthusiasm.

Tie Xuan was very useful for the enthusiasm of the people who came, he had always had some inferiority complex in the village before, after all, for him who lived under the glory of his father, he was not strong and had been ridiculed and bullied by his peers. And this caused him to always feel a little inferior in the face of strangers in his bones, as if he was inferior, even if he is now walking with Master Mo and being respected everywhere, this psychology will still be difficult to change for a while.

Therefore, strangers will make him very sensitive in their attitude towards him, and if the other party gives him respect, although he will not say it, he will definitely give the other party more respect in his heart; On the contrary, if it is a combination of evil words, such as Yu Mazi last night, then he will become a stubborn stone again, and if he is added with a knife and axe, he will also compare with the other party.

Now, the other party came with warm and kind words, no matter what his purpose was, Tie Xuan would not raise his own value, be arrogant, and show off his might, but bowed his hand and said, "There is a labor shop, help my friend choose a few sets of clothes that fit." ”

After saying that, Tie Xuan stepped aside, revealing the scent of books behind him.

When the plump woman heard this, she immediately understood the main service object of the two people who entered the store, and immediately took a few steps forward, looked at the scholarly fragrance a few times, and then said with a smile: "This girl looks like a fairy, she is really a rare and lovely person, and you are really blessed with a guest officer." ”

In this sentence, she not only praised the fragrance of the book, but also did not fall behind Tie Xuan, which can be described as a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing.

"Come with me inside, a batch of new goods have been imported in the past few days, Miss Bao, you are satisfied." Without waiting for the scholar to answer, the plump woman said again, her arm skillfully pulled over the still somewhat stunned scholar, and walked inside, not giving her the slightest chance to refuse to shirk, and this is her shrewdness as a businessman.

At this time, Shuxiang was like a marionette and had to be pulled away with the other party, although she was from an extraordinary background, she had never experienced such a battle, and with the presence of Tie Xuan on the side, she was not easy to disobey the other party, so she could only pretend to be deaf and dumb and silent.

However, the doubts in her heart are getting bigger and bigger, and she doesn't understand why Tie Xuan is so good to her, you must know that now she is just a slave girl bought by the other party, not to mention beating and scolding, she has never even said a word of heavy words, which really makes her more and more confused.

"Could it be that he has a crush on me?"

For some reason, this thought suddenly popped up in Shuxiang's mind, and together with this thought, it grew like a weed, and the more she didn't think about it, the more her mind was full of the shadow of the other party.

Not long after, under the courteous hospitality of the plump woman, the freshly dressed scholarly fragrance reappeared in front of Tie Xuan. I saw a moon-white dress that fit her body very well, which more and more reflected the fairness of her skin, her eyebrows were slightly wrinkled on her delicate face, her eyes flashed from time to time, her head was lowered, and she didn't know what was on her mind.

"Scholar, you are really beautiful." Looking at the girl in front of him, Tie Xuan really liked it the more he looked at it, and he didn't know if it was a liking, but he felt that his heart was full of joy.

"Hey, you fell with your hair on your shoulder, don't move, I'll take it for you." Before Shuxiang looked up, Tie Xuan saw a strand of hair on the other party's shoulder at a glance, and immediately stretched out his hand to step forward.

"Ugh." Tie Xuan's action made Shuxiang, who was already a little cranky, blushed immediately, and wanted to stop the person in a panic, but for some reason, his body seemed to be under some immobilization spell, and he couldn't move.

"Childe, the status of the servant is humble, why is the son so good to me?" After the other party took out the hair for herself, Shuxiang only felt that the doubts in her heart were like a fish in her throat, and she didn't feel unhappy, and her eyes looked directly at Tie Xuan Dao at the moment.

She hoped that Tie Xuan could give her an answer, but whether this answer could satisfy her or not, she couldn't get an idea, and she kept thinking about it.

"Well, this, I just bought a dress to wear with you, what is that?" Hearing Shuxiang's words, Tie Xuan looked calm and said disapprerovitically.

"Uh, that's the case, does Childe mean that he just did a small thing?" Tie Xuan's words made Shuxiang feel inexplicably relieved, as long as the other party didn't covet her beauty, but then a sour feeling hit her heart, disturbing her upset, and she asked in a somewhat sour tone at the moment.

"Yes ... Oh no, this ... The scholarly words made Tie Xuan speechless for a while, and he blurted out the "yes" before he finished speaking, and quickly changed his words, but then he felt that it was inappropriate, so he could only lower his head and look at the ground.

"This son, a total of fifteen taels and seven taels of silver, the first time you come to the shop, the seven coins will be free, just give a whole number of fifteen taels." Just as the two were in an awkward moment of silence, it was the plump woman who stepped forward with a smile like a flower.

"Ah, that's embarrassing, shop." Hearing this, Tie Xuan was like Zhang Tingyu, and hurriedly picked up the money bag in his arms in a hurry.

After paying the bill, Tie Xuan saw that there was something wrong with Shuxiang beside him, and he really didn't want to continue shopping, so he proposed to go back to the inn, Shuxiang nodded silently, and couldn't say that he agreed or objected.

"Childe, I feel like we're being targeted." After the two walked back for a while, Shuxiang suddenly walked to Tie Xuan's side and whispered in a low voice.

"Uh, is there one?" Scholar's words caught Tie Xuan a little off guard, his mind was still a little confused at the moment, he didn't know how to deal with the lovely person beside him, and his vigilance dropped to the lowest.

"Yes, Childe, have you forgotten that your maid also practices martial arts?" Shuxiang frowned and pouted, showing strong dissatisfaction with Tie Xuan's distrust.

"Well, that's fine, but who will follow us, Master Mo and I only arrived here last night." As soon as he said business, Tie Xuan's face immediately became serious, and he muttered in a low voice.

"Let's go, let's hurry back to the inn, it's safe there." After thinking for a moment, Tie Xuan changed his topic, and he couldn't see the slightest emotional fluctuation in his calm eyes, but the hand holding the knife tightened unconsciously.

"Hmm." Shuxiang replied lightly, and didn't say anything more, he believed that Gongzi should have a plan in his heart.

"This guy has improved a lot compared to when he was in Tiejia Village, and his temperament has changed a little, and he seems to have started to practice knife skills, and he really looks more and more like that person." Looking at the figures of Tie Xuan and the others, Tie Fan, who was mixed in the crowd, muttered, his eyes were full of joy.

"Wait a minute, it's a little early to meet it now, and don't mention that powerful character, I'm not an opponent, I can't be in a hurry." After thinking about it secretly, Tie Fan immediately turned around and left, and in the flow of people, no one paid attention to such a sloppy middle-aged man.
