I walked unhurriedly for more than ten days, and finally arrived at the village near the capital of the country.
Uncle Ning, they plan to settle down in this village. Ah Xiang said that if she wanted to give them some money, it would be considered the passage fee, but Uncle Ning would rather die than accept it, which made her embarrassed. In the end, of course, it was not given, Ah Xiang said that he would definitely come to visit them when he had time in the future, and they would also meet them when they went to the city to sell things, so after waving goodbye, Ah Xiang went to the city.
When I arrived in the city, the people who came and went, and the noisy street market, were not inferior to the capital of Xuanyuan Kingdom.
Ah Xiang found a clothing store, changed into men's clothes and went out to hang out.
There's nothing to restrain her here, she can stretch her limbs freely, it's really chic! It's beautiful to think about, but it's really just thinking about it, because she has to find a job, she doesn't have a lot of money, and some of her jewelry is pawned.
Walking aimlessly on the road, seeking work. Looking at the eager eyes of those vendors looking at her, Ah Xiang said that she was also very poor and had no money to spend.
In and out of a restaurant, I asked a lot of shopkeepers and said that they didn't want to be a man, even if they wanted to, they had to be experienced. Of course, Ah Xiang also tried to say that she has experience, but which of the shopkeepers is not a human spirit, you can tell at a glance.
In the end, after shaking for most of the day, there was still nothing, so Ah Xiang had to find a small inn in despair, planning to deal with it for one night.
The inn is at the end of the street, surrounded by secluded and wooded trees, and the environment is top-notch, but it is too remote. Of course, this will be cheaper. The boss's name is Zhou Xushu, and he is a young man, polite and polite, like a scholar.
This is still the inn that Ah Xiang has been dangling on the street to find, and when I saw that it was an independent inn here, I liked it very much. Go in and push the door to see, the inside is clean and tidy, and the temperament of the boss is very similar. The guy is just a teenager, and he only listens to the boss calling him Xiaofei. Xiao Fei looks handsome, he seems to be only one or two years older than Ah Xiang, and his body is weakened, but his movements are very flexible. When he saw Ah Xiang pushing the door in, he immediately stepped forward to greet him enthusiastically.
led Ah Xiang into the room, and said that if there was something to call him, he was below. Ah Xiang nodded and looked around.
The room was as predicted, it was also very clean and spacious. The most important thing is that the price is very cheap. ax
Ah Xiang put her things down and went out as well.
When I went downstairs, I saw Xiao Fei wiping the already clean tables and chairs, and the shopkeeper was standing in front of the counter, flipping the abacus with one hand, looking at the account book with the other, and taking a few notes from time to time.
This inn is very quiet, and the guests have only seen Ah Xiang so far, so it is estimated that the business is very deserted.
Thinking of something, Ah Xiang decided to ask cheekily again.
Walking in front of Zhou Xu's writing, he was a little hesitant.
"This, that, uh, are you recruiting guys?"
Zhou Xushu raised his head and looked at Ah Xiang with a smile, which made Ah Xiang even more embarrassed.
finally nodded when Ah Xiang wanted to run away. Ah Xiang saw a burning smile, "Can you recruit me?" I'm hard-working. ā
Xiao Fei heard the movement here, turned his head and saw Ah Xiang smiling at his boss, and his face immediately sank. Walked quickly behind Ah Xiang.
"We don't hire guys!"
Ah Xiang was a little embarrassed when she heard this, and the person opposite just now nodded obviously.
"Xiao Fei Mo made trouble" turned his head and said to Ah Xiang with that faint smile, "We are recruiting, if you want, you can come and work tomorrow." ā
Xiaofei was lightly reprimanded by Zhou Xushu, and could only sulk. Ah Xiang nodded hurriedly and said, "I have time." ā
"Okay, are you staying here?" Zhou Xushu didn't go on.
"Can I stay here?"
"Okay, I'll let Xiaofei take you to your room."
"Uh-huh."
Hearing Zhou Xushu's words, Xiaofei had no choice but to reluctantly bring Ah Xiang over.
The room was at the back of the inn. Ah Xiang lived in a room next to Xiao Fei.
"Huh? We just saw outside who lives in that little courtyard not far away? ā
Xiao Fei rolled his eyes, "Of course our young master lives." ā
"Young Master?" Ah Xiang is strange, shouldn't she call the shopkeeper? "Our young master came here to open an inn because he wanted to live a peaceful life."
Ah Xiang felt as if she had caught something.
"What kind of life was it before, wasn't it peaceful?"
Xiao Fei obviously reacted that he had leaked his mouth, and said hurriedly: "Why do you care so much?" ā
Sure enough, they are not ordinary people, but as long as they don't involve her.
"So what should I do next?"
"You just need to clean the inn in the future."
This is simple, Ah Xiang said that she has been a maid for so long, and she still has this ability. So he hurriedly nodded in agreement.
I didn't expect the food and housing work to be done so quickly, Ah Xiang was very happy.
The night sky is blue, there are fireflies around, and there are symphonic insect chirpings in the grass, all of which are singing about the beauty of life.
Ah Xiang stood in the courtyard, breathing the unique air under the moonlight and feeling the cool breeze. She thought she could finally get out of there, and that today was the kind of peaceful life she really wanted. Thinking about it like this, my mood is much more relaxed.
When he was still lamenting the beauty of life, there was a sad sound in the night. Ah Xiang turned her head to look at the small courtyard not far away, which was where Zhou Xushu lived.
During the day, Ah Xiang noticed that there was a small bamboo forest behind the courtyard. There is a small flower garden in front of the courtyard, which is bright in color and fiery red. It seems out of place with everything around it, and it is very strange.
And the sad sound came from that piece. Ah Xiang closed her eyes and listened quietly to the sound of Xiao.
She didn't understand this, but she could also hear that there were thousands of strands of sadness in the voice that sounded as indifferent as water. After the song, Ah Xiang also opened her eyes, and her originally happy mood was dyed with melancholy. After standing for a while, she went back to her room.
Everyone has their own secrets, Zhou Xushu has it, and she has it.
Lying on the bed, his eyes were open and looking upward, and it was pitch black.
I wonder what happened to him?
Ah Xiang has been working for more than half a month, and she feels quite fulfilling, calm and stable every day. The inn's business was as cold as it had been when she first arrived. However, her relationship with Xiaofei has eased a lot.
"Ah Xiang, what do you want to eat at noon?"
Ah Xiang smiled and came to Xiao Fei's side, and stammered: "As long as it is made by Brother Xiao Fei, I want to eat it." ā
Every time he heard Ah Xiang call him Brother Xiaofei, Xiaofei felt goosebumps all over his body. Hurriedly rubbing his arms, he frowned and said to Ah Xiang: "Just say what you want to eat, don't shout those who have it or not!" ā
And every time at this time, Ah Xiang would pretend to be confused: "Brother Xiaofei, what are you shouting?" ā
Then Xiao Fei turned around and walked away in frustration. In terms of the thickness of his skin, he is far inferior to Ah Xiang. What is a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, only Ah Xiang is!
"Ah Xiang, don't make trouble with Xiaofei!" Zhou Xushu would also raise his head in his account book at this time and smile and pretend to reprimand Ah Xiang.
Ah Xiang just stuck out her tongue secretly, anyway, she will do it next time.
"Ah Xiang, you go to the street Wang Po to buy some vegetables, and by the way, bring some dried thorn sprouts from Uncle Ning" Xiao Fei came out of the backyard and said to Ah Xiang.
"Haole" Ah Xiang nodded in agreement, and then walked quickly to Zhou Xu and stretched out his hand to ask for money.
Zhou Xushu had to smile helplessly when he saw her like this, but he still took some silver from the drawer and handed it to her.
Ah Xiang took the money and ran out.
The vegetables in the inn are all bought from Wang Po, one is because they are fresh, and the other is not easy for Wang Po alone. Uncle Ning and the others brought some sun-dried thorny old buds from their hometown, although they were not as delicious as fresh, but now it was the end of summer, and there were still tender thorny buds. However, Xiaofei likes to eat it very much, so he often asks Ah Xiang to bring some back.
The street was very lively, Ah Xiang was walking on the road so happily, if she didn't feel that she was old, she really wanted to jump and walk. I bought vegetables from Mrs. Wang, and I bought some thorny old sprouts from Uncle Ning, Ah Xiang's hands were already full of things, and her fingers hurt. But these are the little things. Just walking on the road so slowly, she is not in a hurry to go back, and Xiaofei is in a hurry.
But sometimes fate is so naughty, and from time to time it gives you a little stumbling block to let you know which will make you live a peaceful life, and you have to be prepared for danger in times of peace!
There was a sudden commotion in the middle of the city, and the crowd consciously parted to both sides of the street. Of course, Ah Xiang also followed them as they stood on the side of the road, looking sideways behind them.
I saw a woman in a fiery red Luo skirt with a long whip in her hand and fighting with a man. The tiger with a long whip in one hand is vigorous, and he has a sense of being a heroine among women. And the man only used a folding fan to counteract, although the woman left no room for it, but he was still at ease. They moved quickly, although they couldn't see clearly, but the handle was dark gray, and it should not be an ordinary folding fan.
Looking at the people on the street twice, in addition to some good shows, but still within the normal range, it seems to be used to it. This makes Ah Xiang very strange, could it be that these two people often appear here? She's been living there for nearly half a month, so she hasn't seen them. But maybe she just missed it, she rarely came out in the first place.
The two men fought along the street, the woman approaching, and the man kept falling backwards. Looking at the man's leisurely demeanor, it seems that he is still enjoying it!
It's almost time to come to Ah Xiang's side, Ah Xiang leans back slightly, for fear that they will hurt herself. Although it seems that they didn't hurt anyone else along the way, of course, it was just to be on the safe side!
But it's really the kind of unlucky constitution that will stuff your teeth when you drink water.
The woman swung the whip, and the man dodged. But the whip that was used was obviously not going to be taken back. Ah Xiang was surrounded by crowds, and she couldn't move at all. Hurriedly used his arm to stop, the whip was indeed made of steel, and the body of the whip was cast with barbs. That's what people's ** can stop?
Immediately, the steel thorn pierced into the flesh, and the woman reacted and subconsciously pulled out the whip, but now the flesh was blurred, and the flesh turned out. The things in my hand loosened from the pain and fell apart.
The surroundings are still so conscious, and there is some space around Ah Xiang. I really don't know if they have a good quality or something, Nima didn't move her sister earlier, or she would have avoided it.
Therefore, the two who were still fighting stopped and walked to Ah Xiang's side.
"Hey, are you alright?" Although the woman was hurtful, she didn't feel guilty at all, and her tone was extremely casual.
"Pearl, why do you ask so much? Wouldn't it be enough to see her give some money like that! The man also walked up to the woman.
Ah Xiang also saw the appearance of the two clearly at this time. The woman's facial features are exquisite, with willow eyebrows, and peach blossom eyes like water waves. The lip flap is neither thick nor thin, with a goose egg face, delicate and moving. The man was also dignified and behaved.
Listening to what they said, I can only say that it's a pity that the two of them look.
"You think I look like you?" The woman looked up at the man beside her.
"And what are you going to do?" The man was not angry, but watched the show yes and asked.
"Hey, what the hell is wrong with you?"
Ah Xiang wanted to sneer, but held back. just said in a faint tone: "Do you think I'm okay?" As he spoke, he stretched out his bloody arm to her.
Apparently the woman was disgusted, and her face was full of disgust.
"Hurry up and get it away, it's disgusting!"
Ah Xiang thought she was very well-behaved, so she put her arm down.
"Ah, here you go. I, Nangong Zhu, am not the kind of person who kills innocents indiscriminately, you treat this thing as a thing, and the money in exchange for it is enough for you to live for a lifetime. After speaking, he plucked a pearl hairpin from his head and threw it at Ah Xiang, and the bead hairpin smashed into Ah Xiang's front placket and fell.
"Haha, in the end, it's not about money!" The man laughed.
The eyes of the people around him gradually turned from sympathy at the beginning to envy.
