Unless it's rain pouring into their heads, no one wants to be up to the patrol.

This feeling is like swimming up from the sea with the wind and waves, not taking a few steps, but being drowned by a small puddle, not a loss, of course, so you have to desperately go to Bo in the sea, and you have to bypass a small puddle when you encounter it.

Shen Tong ran faster and faster, the stagnant water on the street reflected her shadow, her people and shadows were connected, and her figure could not be seen in the night, only vaguely that it was a person wearing a dark suit.

In the middle of the night, people dressed like this can only be bandits.

The horse's hooves stepped on the rain, splashing patches of water, and Shen Tong was like a flat boat struggling to move forward in the water, and he was about to be overtaken.

It was still a long way from College Street, and she was caught halfway through the run.

There was an intersection in front, Shen Tong shook the rain on her face, she recognized it, and from here to the south is Qingshui Lane!

Clear Water Lane?

Shen Tong didn't have time to think about it, so his feet involuntarily ran towards the southern intersection.

She could feel the sound of the horses' hooves behind her pause, and heard the neighing of the horses as they were slammed to the reins.

Walking south from this intersection, it is called Nine Alleys and One Street, not only Qingshui Lane, but also Qin Wangfu, most of the families and eunuchs in Xi'an City live here.

There are special people patrolling the first street of Nine Alleys, and it is not for these people to go.

Shen Tong was overjoyed, she almost forgot that these soldiers and horses were not allowed to enter the first street of Nine Alleys.

She was happy in her heart and ran faster on her feet.

But she was too early to be happy, and as soon as she ran through the mouth of an alley, she saw the patrol.

Fortunately, this time Shen Tong had a lesson from the past, and instead of running unrestrainedly in the middle of the road with the least amount of water, she ran by the side, so when this patrol guard walked by, she dodged and hid behind a dismounting stone.

She had not yet grown in size, and it was a rainy night, and the patrol guards did not see her curled up behind the dismounted stones in the alley as they walked along the main road.

When this group of people walked over, Shen Tong immediately got up and left, she had to go quickly, this team of guards was going in the direction of the intersection, the team of people who found her earlier must still be there, and they would tell this team of guards about seeing her, and then it would be another chase.

Taking advantage of the fact that the team had not returned, she ran faster and faster, and finally she saw the three words Qingshui Lane.

Shen Tong didn't think about it, so he ran into Qingshui Lane.

There are only two families in Qingshui Lane, Jiang Shuangliu's house in front and Xiao Ren's house in the back.

Although it was raining heavily, the whole alley was illuminated by glass-covered air lamps hanging in front of the doors of these two households.

At this time, Shen Tong felt that the orange in his arms was struggling.

Along the way, Orange seemed to know the danger, and he had always been very well-behaved, and his two front paws were tightly hooked to Shen Tong's clothes, as if he was afraid that he would fall into the water and drown.

But now, it waved its claws hooked on its clothes, trying to break free from Shen Tong's arms.

The cat is such a small thing with aura, it has been away from this place for a long time, but it can only recognize this place from the gap in its coat that it has been taken away.

Shen Tong muttered quietly: "You took the initiative to let me take it away, but I didn't come to be strong." ”

The door of the Xiao Mansion was closed, and Shen Tong knocked on the knocker.

The door opened a crack just enough to poke its head out.

Menzi was startled when he saw the wet black-clothed man standing at the door, and was about to close the door, when he suddenly rubbed his eyes again, and then he said in surprise: "It's Miss Shen, why are you here, come in quickly, and take shelter from the rain here." ”

As he spoke, the door opened and Shen Tong was let in.

Shen Tong didn't expect her to come in easily, and she didn't expect that this sect would be able to recognize herself at a glance.

She'd been here before, but now she'd been so drenched that she almost didn't know herself.

She had just been invited to the porter's room, and the little maid on night duty in the porter immediately rushed to the court.

Xiao Ren came with that little guy, he was holding an umbrella, the clothes on his body were half wet, although he was wearing an outer robe, but the placket had not been buttoned yet, revealing the middle coat inside, obviously sleeping, and he hurried over after being woken up.

At that moment, there was another knock on the door, and the door went out to answer the door, and then the door closed again.

Menzi walked into the gatehouse and looked at Shen Tong, his face hesitant.

Xiao Ren asked in a deep voice, "Who is knocking on the door?" ”

Menzi hurriedly said: "It's the Jiao Qi officer who patrols the defense, he asked......"

Before Menzi finished speaking, Xiao Ren's face sank, and he said, "Let him go!" ”

When Menzi was commanded, he went out at once.

Xiao Ren didn't care about these things anymore, he said to the little chestnut who ran behind him: "Ask the stove to boil hot water, boil some ginger soup, and let the two mothers-in-law replace the bedding in the guest room with new ones." ””

At this time, a cat meow came from Shen Tong.

Then, a small round head came out of Shen Tong's coat.

Xiao Ren blinked, he had already found that Shen Tong was bulging, but he didn't expect her to hide a cat.

Little Chestnut's eyes lit up, and he involuntarily said, "A cat? ”

"Meow~"

"It's really a cat!"

"Meow~"

Well, the cat that has been stolen for a long time is back.

The little chestnut wanted to reach out and hug it, but he remembered that Ah Mao was still in Miss Shen's clothes, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Shen Tong was helpless, she pulled the orange out of her arms and held it up in front of the little chestnut: "Help wash and dry it, don't let it get sick." ”

When the orange was here, it was the little chestnut who was taking care of it, and after the orange was lost, the little chestnut secretly cried for several days, and now when he saw the orange, his tears flowed out again, and he was worried about being seen by Qishao, so he hurriedly picked up the orange and ran out.

Xiao Ren was stunned, he knew from Mrs. Jiang that the Shen family had a cat, but he didn't care.

Could it be that this cat is the cat?

No, Shen Tong is dressed like this, she doesn't need to ask to know what she is going to do, she brought a cat out of the house?

Xiao Ren didn't ask, so he personally took Shen Tong to the guest room.

Shen Tong soaked in the bathtub for half an hour, and she fell asleep in the middle, and she didn't wake up until her stomach growled.

She was so tired that night.

There are clean clothes in the house, they are new, and she is very suitable for them, looking at the fabric and style, they should be the newly sewn clothes of the little maid in the house.

She changed her clothes and walked out with her half-dried hair, wanting to ask if she had anything to eat, but saw Xiao Ren standing under the corridor.

I don't know when, the rain has stopped, Xiao Ren seems to have been freshened up, neatly dressed, wearing a home-style robe with dark lines of lake blue silver filigree, black hair with silver hairpins The carving of the silver hairpin and the dark pattern of the robe are the same fancy, at first glance, it is carefully matched, and his face is even more radiant, without a trace of sleepiness, not like he was woken up in the middle of the night.
