11: Transit (2)

"Uncle, are you alright-" Lin Yan pointed to the man who was standing awkwardly in front of him.

"It's fine." The middle-aged man shook his head, waved his hand, and smiled reluctantly.

"Sister, you're too ruthless." Lin Yan looked at the man's face in slight surprise, even in the night, the red slap prints could be seen clearly.

Lin Xiang coughed embarrassedly, didn't she figure it out, thinking it was some kind of outlaw. Besides, if there is anything to talk about in the middle of the night, what has she been doing for so long during the day, can she not be misunderstood.

With a straight face, Lin Xiang looked at the man and said, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Hearing this, the man also became serious, and then said: "Actually, this is the case, I heard that Miss Lin is in the wine shop, a few days ago, the person in charge of the spoon was you-"

Lin Xiang's face paused, he looked up at the other party, and saw that this person was looking at her with burning eyes, and after a while, he nodded and said, "It's me." ”

In an instant, there was a strange smile on the man's face.

Lin Xiang couldn't help but get goosebumps on his body.

"Actually—" The man stopped smiling and began to talk.

After a while, the man opened and closed his mouth before he stopped.

Lin Xiang's eyes widened in disbelief.

Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "You, are you sure it's okay like this?" An ecstasy of surprise ensued.

The man nodded.

"Sister, sister, you promise him-"

Lin Xiang came back to her senses from a moment of surprise, lowered her head and groaned that she was not as disqualified as Lin Yan, after thinking about it, she raised her head and said, "I don't know if you are more ...... than this wine shop" Saying, seeing that the other party's expression stiffened, she suddenly understood in her heart, and said: "It seems that there is a gap." Saying that, Lin Xiang couldn't help but sigh.

Come to think of it, if it was better than a wine store, they would never have thought of such a method.

"I know, but ......" Lin Xiang was a little embarrassed.

Say yes or no?

"Sister, quickly agree." Lin Yan was already starry on the side.

Resisting the urge to burst into foul language, Lin Xiang turned around and gave the other party a roll of his eyes, and then lowered his head in contemplation.

Seeing this, the man also became a little nervous.

The wine shop is a little famous, the business is good, and the income must be very good, so her current monthly silver does not look low, but there are also disadvantages, that is, the shopkeeper does not look at her very well now, and she may be kicked out at any time.

After thinking about it, Lin Xiang raised his head and said, "Okay, I promise you!" ”

Hearing this, the man's face was suddenly happy.

"But—" Lin Xiang said again.

The man's face suddenly tightened again.

"I'll leave the residence of our sister and brother to you." Saying that, Lin Xiang helplessly stretched out his hand and pointed around, and said, "My requirements are not high, as long as there is a room to live in." ”

The man looked around along Lin Xiang's fingers, only to see that there were weeds everywhere, in a dilapidated small temple, there were only two thin quilts on the ground, the walls were broken, the big wooden door was open, even if it was closed, there were several big holes.

If there is a cold wind or heavy snow in winter, the people in the temple will be miserable.

Somewhat embarrassed, the man lowered his head and thought about it, pondered for a moment, and nodded: "I'll try my best to think of a way for you, but the quality of the residence cannot be guaranteed." ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiang smiled lightly: "Is there any worse place than here?" ”

She really didn't have any money, and she thought that she would have to stay in this dilapidated place for a year and a half, and she didn't want to take advantage of the coincidence to get out at this moment.

Looking around, the man said, "That's just as well."

"My name is Feng Ming, and I want Miss Lin to take care of me more in the future-"

Lin Xiang smiled when he heard this, "I'm only eight years old, a poor girl, what do you care?" It's just a mixed meal. But he nodded, and exchanged a friendly look with the other party.

……

"Sister, what are you going to do at the wine store?" Lin Yan asked suspiciously.

Hearing this, Lin Xiang smiled and said, "What should I do, what can I do, anyway, I am not welcome over there, although there is a gap between the two ends, but it is rare that people are willing to help us arrange a place to live, but it is nothing." Besides, I'm more comfortable. After that, seeing that Lin Yan still wanted to say something, she waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, the day after tomorrow it should be paid, and everything will be paid later." ”

……

"Shopkeeper, I calculated the accounts, and this month's income is a little less than last month." The bookkeeper's fingers crackled and he looked up.

The shopkeeper frowned when he heard this: "What's the matter, I remember that there are a lot of wine sales." ”

"But there are fewer customers this month, and many people were scared away when a few big men made trouble last time, and many of them slipped away without paying the bill-" The bookkeeper said helplessly, "Also, the smashed tables, chairs and benches, although those people basically paid for them, but the store still paid a small part of the silver taels." ”

After listening to this, the shopkeeper frowned, lowered his head and thought about it, and his face was not very good.

……

"This is this month's moon silver, and you can check it to see if it's missing—"

Lin Xiang was holding something a little heavy in his hand, and he couldn't help but open it and take a look-

Kindness? Isn't that right?

In an instant, Lin Xiang's brows furrowed, and he squinted his eyes and lowered his head to count them carefully.

That's right! The monthly silver is three coins, but this is obviously four coins!

Before Fang could react, the shopkeeper spoke, "Lin Xiang, come here-"
