Chapter 235: Crying
She didn't have the heart to eat, and when she was about to go upstairs, the shopkeeper came over, and saw that the dishes on the table had not been touched, and asked with some doubts: "Is this dish unappetizing?" β
Xi Muyun was shocked, it would be bad if others saw the flaws, after thinking about it, he covered up his smile and said: "It's nothing, I'm a little unaccustomed to the food outside, these vegetable oil and salt are relatively heavy, I have no appetite when I look at it." β
"Then ......" The shopkeeper frowned, wanting to ask something else.
Xi Muyun smiled and replied first: "Don't worry, I will pay you the money, it's not bad, if it's convenient, can I use it for my maid?" She has always been able to cook, and she is more in line with my appetite. β
The shopkeeper nodded, looking at her attitude, she didn't seem to be suspicious, so she immediately said: "Of course it's okay, the kitchen has been cleaned up, a few guest officers, please take care of yourself, if you don't eat this table, then I'll take it down." β
"Withdraw." After Xi Muyun finished speaking, he walked upstairs.
Cuiyun vaguely felt that something was wrong, but this was not the time to ask too much, so she immediately followed Xi Murong upstairs, and when she arrived at the room, she asked, "Miss, why are you a little weird?" β
Xi Muyun put his index finger to his mouth and sighed, Cuiyun immediately stopped talking, Xi Duyun walked to the door and looked out of the door, but found no figure, and then said to Cuiyun: "Don't you feel that something is wrong?" This place. β
Cuiyun looked around, it was no different from other places, and he didn't find anything wrong, so he asked Xi Muyun suspiciously, "What's wrong with Miss?" β
Xi Muyun sighed, "I always feel that these people are weird, maybe it has something to do with Childe's affairs." β
"Childe's whereabouts are secretive, not to mention that he went out in the name of a caravan, no one will think of Miss, you can rest assured, not to mention that if all the people in this inn are bad people, then they can't help Childe, after all, there are many people with strong martial arts around Childe." Cuiyun smiled and said with relief.
"If their target is really Qi Lichen, it doesn't mean that they must know Qi Lichen's identity, and they have already made ten thousand preparations, how can there be only those people in this inn?" Xi Muyun said a little anxiously: "It is precisely because of this that I am worried. β
Cuiyun knew that what she said was not unreasonable, but she still had a lot of doubts, "Miss, I heard that this inn has been open on this road for several years, how could they predict the next few years in advance, a small innkeeper should not have such great courage to be able to find someone to fight against Qingyu Pavilion." β
"We came last night and there was something wrong with them." Xi Muyun frowned slightly, and told everything he saw and heard last night and his own guesses, Cuiyun was shocked, if it was really such outlaws, then wouldn't they be extremely dangerous here?
Thinking of this, she immediately wanted to go back to the room, but Xi Muyun grabbed her, "What are you doing in a hurry?" β
"Pack up your things and leave this place." Cuiyun said: "Miss, you wait here for a while, I have packed my things, let's go down together." β
"Now that they know my identity and know that I am Qi Lichen's fiancΓ©e, I'm afraid they think I'm a strange commodity and won't let me go so easily, and they are not idle people, they must all have martial arts, we can't leave, and now we can only pretend that nothing has happened, and take one step at a time." Xi Muyun said in a deep voice.
Cuiyun was panicked to death, but at this time, she could only try to calm herself down, so she nodded slightly and said, "Okay." β
"You have to be extra vigilant anyway, don't eat what they give you anyway." Xi Muyun said calmly.
In fact, since she came here, there have been many winds and rains, and she has come all the way, but she has not felt very panicked, but has been a little calmer when encountering things, and now panicking is useless, but will give the enemy an opportunity.
Cuiyun also slowly calmed down, "Miss, then I'll go to the kitchen and get something to eat." β
"Go ahead, and remember not to let them see the flaws." Xi Muyun still felt that if there was no conclusive evidence, it was best not to be too sure, although there were many doubts now, especially the ubiquitous eyes, which made her feel very uncomfortable, but what did the two of them do in the wasteland that night, it was still the biggest doubt in his heart, could it be that he was dealing with the corpse of the real shopkeeper?
Cuiyun soon came up, and according to his instructions, he got him a little simple white porridge and boiled wild vegetables, and it smelled fragrant when it was served.
Before you know it, it's dark, and there is a world of difference between day and night here.
During the day, because there is a road outside, pedestrians on the road are in a hurry, and at night, there are naturally no people walking on this road near the city gate, and at night, the branches and leaves are spread, like countless ghosts with teeth and claws, which makes people shiver when they look at it.
Before Xi Muyun went downstairs and walked to the door, the shopkeeper was like a ghost, and he didn't know where he came out, "Girl, where are you going so late?" β
"Why do you look like a ghost?" Xi Muyun was startled, but he still tried to calm down, turned his head and said.
"I just came out of the kitchen and saw the girl scared the girl, I'm really sorry, girl, do you still go out so late?" The shopkeeper asked.
Xi Muyun shook his head, "It's just that tonight is a sunny day, and I can't sleep when I think I'm going to see him tomorrow, so I came out for a walk, the stars are really bright tonight, and the moon is so big, so I want to come out to enjoy the moon and pass the time, I really hope to come sooner tomorrow." β
The shopkeeper smiled and teased: "Do you have a good relationship with the leading son?" β
"Actually, I'm not afraid of you laughing." Xi Muyun lowered his head and said with a little sadness: "My father has the grace to save his father's life, so the two adults have decided this marriage, he has always been dissatisfied with me, I remember when he left home before, he also hated and said, I hope to come back and never see me again, I am really hurt in my heart, so this time I plan to surprise him, I hope he can understand my heart, don't dislike me so much." β
"Girl." The shopkeeper sighed, not knowing what to say.
Xi Muyun wiped a handful of tears, "If I can't succeed this time, I'm afraid he will have to cancel his marriage contract with me, the adults in the family are gone, and there is no restraint on him, and I will be abandoned like a shoe." β
The shopkeeper was stunned, "Your feelings, such a difference?" β
"Who says it's not, don't look at me now as the owner of a shop, my identity is much more decent, but I was just a peasant girl before, doing farm work in the field every day, dirty, who will like it when you see it, he is a scholar, and he took the Xiucai exam, and he has nothing to talk about with me, I think he just doesn't think about my father's life-saving grace to his father, so he will keep dragging this marriage contract, and he won't marry me for a long time, I'm also old, if I got married two years earlier, I'm afraid I will have children at this time, shop Xiaoer, you say, this time I can......" After Xi Muyun finished speaking, he waved his hand again, "That's it, you are all men, naturally you won't understand my thoughts, you go and get me a bottle of wine." β
The shopkeeper didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to go and bring the wine and put it in front of Xi Muyun, and then said cautiously: "What else does the girl have to say?" Tell me about it. β
