Chapter 12 Buying a dagger without looking at a kitchen knife
"Shhh The shopkeeper really didn't expect that Qiu Se, who was dressed in coarse linen, would be able to take out so much silver at once, and he would have known that he would not let those reckless men say those meaty words, but anyone who sees a single woman living in a hotel will be itchy.
"Ouch girl, I'm the one behind my ears, don't be like me." The shopkeeper immediately put on a smiling face, and quickly put the silver into his hand, "Girl, we have a private room on the second floor here, the conditions are good to the south, free hot water and breakfast, eighty wen a night, you see ......"
Qiu Se raised his head, couldn't help but look at the corner of silver in the shopkeeper's hand, and said deliberately indifferently: "Then come to a private room, but in front of you, if the room is not clean, be careful I will demolish your shop!" ”
"Oh, how can that? Girl, don't worry! My shop is the cleanest in the entire marina. Come, I'll take you up myself. ”
The shopkeeper moved his fat body and panted to lead the way in front, and Qiu Shi followed behind, and before going upstairs, he also cast a 'murderous intent' look at the gossiping people in the hall.
"Heh, that little lady is fierce enough?" The people who watched the autumn colors go upstairs saw the "fierce" eyes, turned their heads and whispered.
"No, it scared me!"
"Hey, I don't have the ability to protect myself these days, what young woman dares to go on the road alone?" A slightly older guest said.
Many of the people in the hall nodded yes when they heard this, and a few people scoffed, "Didn't you just stare at it!" You're thinking too much. ”
I don't know what the guests downstairs said about the autumn colors, but she was very satisfied with the room in this private room.
This is a suite, there is a beaded curtain hanging between the inside and outside, the shadow is too dark to see the inside, the quilt is neat and clean, the bed is hung with a light cyan gauze tent, there is a large bath bucket behind the screen in the corner, the square table and round stools are all there are even bookcases and the four treasures of the study.
"How about the girl? This is the best room in our Ping An Inn! The shopkeeper was a little proud.
"Okay, that's it, get me the bath water in." Autumn nods.
"Okay, I'll be right here." The shopkeeper went downstairs with a smile.
Seeing that the shopkeeper had gone out, he walked to the window and opened the window, and saw that the sun was really shining in the sun, and it was not far from the dock, and there was a market below.
Closing the window, Qiu Shi reclined on the edge of the bed to rest, and after two days of nervous tension, she suddenly felt very tired, and just when she was about to fall asleep, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Who?" An agitated spirit stood up in the autumn colors.
Before she could open the door, the door was automatically pushed open from the outside, and Xiao Er came in with a bucket of steaming water, "Guest officer, the little one is here to bring you hot water." ”
Although he was a little dissatisfied with Xiao Er's action of entering the door by himself, Qiu Shi still instructed Xiao Er to pour water into the bath tub. Xiao Er ran three more times to add water to the bucket, "Guest officer, you use it slowly, what do you call me again." ”
"Wait, let me ask you, do you know if there's a blacksmith shop on this dock?" Autumn color called Xiao Er.
Xiao Er was a little strange why a woman in Qiu Se asked the blacksmith shop, but she still replied honestly: "Yes, go out of our inn and go to the right, there is a Zhao Ji blacksmith shop, and that Master Zhao has good skills." At the end, he was puzzled and asked, "The girl asked what this blacksmith shop does?" Isn't it looking for someone? ”
Qiu Se glanced at him, and deliberately said with a straight face: "My weapon is broken, and I want to fight again." ”
Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "It turns out that you are a chivalrous woman!" Disrespectful, disrespectful! Then you're busy, I'll go down first. "The attitude is much more flattering than just now.
Qiu Se listened to the sound of the shopkeeper going downstairs, bolted the door, moved a few more stools to block the door, and then went around the back of the screen, took off his clothes, and took a comfortable hot shower.
After taking a bath, Qiu Se found a cyan long skirt to wear from the baggage, removed the oilcloth bag and put it close to his body, washed the clothes he took off and put them on the window, and then put the stool at the door back in place and went downstairs.
"Shopkeeper!" Autumn Colors knocked on the counter in front of him.
"Hey, guest officer, are you sharpening or ...... Hey, aren't you the girl who just went upstairs? The fat shopkeeper looked up in response, and when he saw that the counter was standing in front of the autumn color, he immediately stared at the mung bean eyes in surprise, "The girl is really energetic." ”
This blue long skirt in autumn color was made by herself when she was in Chen's house, shorter than other skirts in the house that were ankle-length, and longer than the long placket worn by some old women, just above the knee, the skirt was placed larger, the waist was tightened, the collar was edged with a three-inch wide dark blue, which was extended to the waistband, and a row of same-color buckles were embroidered on the placket, the sleeves were shorter and wider, and the narrow sleeves and narrow pants lined with the middle coat looked extremely neat.
This set of clothes was made after Qiu Shi picked up the original owner's female red skills and integrated modern elements for three months, but at that time, the eldest lady disliked the clothes 'not in accordance with the rules', and Qiu Shi has not been worn, and now she is not afraid of acquaintances seeing it.
"Shopkeeper, I'm going to go out, you ask Xiao Er to clean up the room, prepare some meals by the way, and I'll come back and use it later." Autumn Colors commanded directly.
"Hey, got it." The fat shopkeeper stopped Qiu Se who turned around and was about to leave, "Girl, where are you going?" Do you need someone to take you there? ”
"No need." Qiu Se hated the fat shopkeeper's gaze glued to him, and turned around and walked out of the inn.
But what Qiu Se didn't know was that there was also a person in the hall who was staring at her like a fat shopkeeper, and his eyes were even more evil.
Qiu Se is now wearing a skirt with a cinched waist, and the upper body is thinner, plus when she walks, she is not like the ordinary Daliang towards the woman's chest and bows her head, the girl's better curves are undoubtedly revealed, which naturally attracts a lot of voyeur eyes.
Qiu Shi came to the blacksmith shop according to Xiao Er's words, and as soon as he stood at the door, he felt that the heat wave was hitting people, and a shirtless man was standing in front of the extremely strong stove and beating the iron piece, presumably Master Zhao.
Master Zhao saw that a customer came to the door and put down the hammer in his hand and wanted to come over to greet him, and later saw that the visitor was a woman who was busy and put on a Han shirt, "Girl, are you here to see the kitchen knife?" In his mind, the woman's blacksmith shop was nothing more than a kitchen knife or farm implement, and the autumn clothes were fresh and neat, and it didn't look like doing farm work, so only the kitchen knife remained.
"I don't want to look at kitchen knives, I want to buy a dagger for self-defense." Autumn replied as she glanced over his iron shelf.
