Chapter 66
It was the end of June, when the heat was unbearable, and no amount of bounty was given in the inn in the border town, and the cooling was all about a little bit of talk that was better than nothing. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Shao Suhui tossed and turned on the bed for a while to cook "pancakes", and finally turned over and sat up amid the deafening sound of cicadas, and decided to ask the shopkeeper to ask the back kitchen if he could make two bowls of freezing to cool off.
By the way, shouldn't I go and meet Liu Jiayao...... Slowly putting on his clothes, Shao Suhui picked up the hat and turned it twice, and then silently put it back. It stands to reason that if there is any news about Xuzhou Lianxuan Restaurant, Qin Xi at the headquarters of Jingyao Club will not fail to pass on the news to himself. But if something didn't happen, why would Liu Jiayao leave her business behind and travel thousands of miles to the border between the two countries...... Could it be that what happened to Zhou Bo, who led the caravan to do business in Wenyun Kingdom?
Although he and Zhou Bo have known each other for two or three years, they are real friends of wine and meat, but occasionally when Shao Suyi goes out of the valley to check the accounts and Zhou Bo happens to not go to Wenyunguo to do business, they drink together and chat about some unnutritious topics. As for what Zhou Bo did and what his identity background was, since he was reluctant to mention it, Shao Suyi never asked much. After all, everyone has secrets, just like Zhou Bo and his wife, although they knew that he was inseparable from Jing Yaohui, they always thought that he was just a member of Jingyao's branch in the Northern Xinjiang Branch.
In this world, it is not easy for everyone to live...... Shao Suyi picked the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile of unknown meaning, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were naturally a little confused and frivolous, which made his somewhat indifferent eyes at this time also look affectionate. "It's so upsetting." Stirring up the reflection reflected in the basin, Shao Suhui stretched casually, put away the unprovoked cynicism, grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the table, and prepared to go out for a swing.
Because of the hot weather, the windows in the corridor outside the guest room were wide open, and the leafy tree trunks were about to extend into the house. Shao Suyi swayed out of his room with melon seeds in his mouth, and just happened to meet the culprit who taught people to be uneasy.
"Yo, it's quite fat." Breaking a branch to suppress the fat cicada and not giving it a chance to fly away, Shao Suhui listened to the rough croaking of the cicada as if it was protesting, and thought of the playmates in the orphanage in the previous life, who caught what they saw, caught what they ate, and almost didn't eat the backyard hills bald, as well as Ah Ran, who was obviously afraid of hating insects but wanted to put on a casual appearance, and couldn't help laughing. "Don't worry, sir, I'm not interested in insects, and I won't eat you."
Duan Ziyi, who heard the voice and came out to check, pushed open the door, and saw Shao Suyi poking a branch and playing with it, and a small handful of melon seed skins were piled up on the windowsill next to him, talking to himself and not knowing what he was laughing at. The veil of the hat was blocked in front of Duan Ziyi's eyes, making him look at anything as if it was covered with a layer of haze. Only Shao Suyi, who was standing by the window, seemed to have crossed a layer of light, smiling wantonly and dazzlingly, which made people feel warm.
Shao Suhui teased the poor fat man a few times, and felt a little tired, so he took a branch and pulled it off the branch, which was a kind way to let it live. He threw away the branch and just straightened up, and when he turned around, he saw Duan Ziyi leaning against the door, his hat covering his face, and he didn't know where to look.
"Quarreling with you?" Shao Suyi patted the dust on his hands and smiled at Duan Ziyi. He had been paying attention to the movements in Duan Ziyi's room behind him, so he had long known that Duan Ziyi was watching him from behind. "I'm going to ask if the kitchen sells freezing pastry, do you want to bring you a copy too?"
Unexpectedly, he actually saw that Shao Suyi could see his god, Duan Ziyi snorted unnaturally, and was just about to say something, but saw the door of the guest room at the end of the corridor suddenly open, and two people came out one after the other.
The head was a woman with a woman's hair in a bun, and she was wearing an ankle-length cloak on a hot day. Half a step away from the young woman, a man in a scholarly shirt grabbed her arm with one hand and rested on the woman's waist with the other, as if he was nervous about every step she took.
"Watch your step."
The scholar whispered softly in the young woman's ear, like a very considerate and competent husband. The young woman's eyes were blank and empty, and she did not respond to the scholar's concern. Seeing that this somewhat strange loving couple was about to walk to his door, Duan Ziyi took half a step back into the room, and was about to make way for them, but saw Shao Suyi, who was standing by the window, quickly gave him a look.
That glance full of deep meaning was so fast that Duan Ziyi almost thought that he had an illusion. Before he could think about the meaning of Shao Suyi's glance at him, the young couple had already helped each other and came to them. In an instant, Shao Suyi grabbed the melon seed skin on the windowsill violently, and sprinkled it all over the scholar's head, taking advantage of the moment when the other party's vision was blocked, he bullied the young woman forward and pushed the young woman in the direction of Duan Ziyi, "Save people!" ”
The space in the corridor was narrow, and Shao Suyi knew that his long whip could not be used, so he simply abandoned it, and took out the hand-to-hand combat trick to greet the scholar. The man dressed as a scholar was obviously also well-trained, and after leaning back to avoid the non-threatening melon seed skin, he took out a dagger and turned around and stabbed it towards Shao Suyi's waist and abdomen, and with his other hand, he didn't forget to shoot a few quenched darts in the direction of Duan Ziyi.
"Beware of hidden weapons!"
There was no need for Shao Suyi to give special orders, Duan Ziyi had already caught the woman who was turning towards him, and while retreating, the ice blade fan in his hand opened with a bang, and the dart was easily blocked with a fan that seemed to be like ordinary paper. In the face of the sudden change, the young woman always looked indifferent, like a puppet with a broken thread, without blinking her eyes, and let Duan Ziyi half-help and half-hold her into the house.
Seeing that the young woman was taken away, the scholar was anxious and angry, as if he was going to die with Shao Suyi, and threw himself on Shao Suyi with a dagger regardless of the situation. Seeing that the pale scholar with red eyes and acting like a rabbit, Shao Suxuan was amused, twisted his body like a nimble swimming fish, took a step forward and slid to his back with the scholar's blade, and slashed his palm like a knife on the back of the scholar's neck, knocking people unconscious.
Unexpectedly, this scholar looked thin and weak, and it was quite heavy in his hands. Shao Suyi didn't hold it for a while, and the unconscious scholar fell headlong, slamming the old floor and groaning. The movement was too big this time, and Shao Suyi couldn't care about the dust flying all over the sky at the moment, so he hurriedly kicked the scholar into Duan Ziyi's room, and as soon as he closed the door, he saw the shopkeeper trotting upstairs, and looked over here.
"You, you, you, just in time!" beckoned the shopkeeper over, Shao Suyi made an angry look, pointed to the branch that stretched into the corridor window less than half an inch and asked, "Look at it, look at it, this branch has grown into the house!" almost scratched the master's clothes, and caused the master to trip and almost fall! He said as he shook the clothes on his body that were hard to find an inch of shark yarn, "Do you recognize what kind of material this is?" If it's really scratched, you can't afford to sell your broken shop. ”
"The guest officer is angry, angry!" Looking at the branch that was one more leaf length than the windowsill, although the shopkeeper knew that the rich young master in front of him was afraid that he was using the topic to play, he still had to politely reassure, "Don't worry, the little one will find someone to saw this fork!" Sawed! ”
"Hmph, that's pretty much it." Shao Suyi snorted, straightened his clothes and wanted to educate the shopkeeper, but heard Duan Ziyi calling him in the house: "Shao Suyi, have you had enough?" ”
With the loud reprimand in the room, which was not yet loud with the sound of cicadas, the shopkeeper was surprised to find that the eldest young master, who was still losing his temper just now, suddenly changed his face, and smiled as if he had changed someone. "I'll come now." Shao Suyi responded with a smile, turned around and looked at the dumbfounded shopkeeper and said, "Okay, it's none of your business, let's leave quickly." ”
Dare to love, this man's temper just now was for the one in the house? The shopkeeper wiped his sweat, these two people are extraordinary and generous, and they really do things differently from ordinary people, and they are unpredictable. "The guest officer has a good rest, and the little one will look for a saw."
"Hey, wait."
The shopkeeper had just taken two steps out of the house with trepidation, and was called back by Shao Suxuan. "Get two copies of freezing point, and send them to this room in a while to relieve the heat for you."
"Gotcha! Wait a minute. "With the reward silver thrown by Shao Suxuan, the shopkeeper who was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth and eyes almost didn't offer this uncle as a fortune boy." The little one will be sent to you in a moment! ”
Seeing the shopkeeper leave happily, the expression on Shao Suyi's face suddenly became solemn, and he hurriedly pushed the door and dodged into Duan Ziyi's room.
