Chapter 8: Breaking the Secret of the Boudoir

When the time came, Qiao Su opened his mouth and angered him, scolding that you are only worth a few dozen taels and dare to lie to me, doesn't Qiao Su know the true price of the necklace?

If she is lucky, she can still talk to Shopkeeper Ge about going back to Shunzhou to open a restaurant, let him be an investor, and promote Sichuan cuisine!

Thinking like this, Josu seemed to have seen the gold all over the ground and wanted to beckon.

She entered the upper cabin alone, looking for the study where Ge's shopkeeper was looking for him, and suddenly saw a familiar figure appear at the end of the corridor, wearing a cyan robe and a white face, wasn't that Wen Xiaomo!

"Why did this young boy come along?" Thinking of the past when he was pulled into the water by Wen Xiaomo, Qiao Su couldn't help but shudder, and randomly pushed open the door next to him and hid in.

Unfortunately, she heard footsteps getting closer, apparently coming this way.

Qiao Su was flustered for a while, lifted her skirt and hid behind the screen, and the next second the door was pushed open, and Wen Xiaomo and Shopkeeper Ge walked in one after the other.

"You said that you are good at painting landscapes, then you will make a picture of the autumn mountains here, if you paint well, this shopkeeper will be rewarded."

Wen Xiaomo laid out the paper and swore that "Shopkeeper Ge can rest assured, Wen will paint here." ”

Qiao Su hid behind the screen and listened, her heart almost sinking to the bottom. When Wen Xiaomo finishes painting, won't the sun be about to set?

But how can she explain it when she goes out now?

Qiao Su carefully sat in the corner of the floor, holding her chin with her hand, so sad that she fell asleep unconsciously.

When she woke up again, it was late, there was a black hole in the study, a few red waxes were lit, she rubbed her eyes, and suddenly heard the woman's coquettish voice coming from the front of the screen, and she was suddenly stunned.

"Master, lightly, it hurts the slave family!"

After hearing what was happening in the study, Qiao Su was instantly petrified, just now it was Xiucai painting, why did this become a boudoir secret?

She was scrambling to run, and a large hand slowly reached out from the darkness to cover her mouth.

"Hmm-"

"Don't be afraid, it's me." Qin Shen pulled her into his arms and whispered in her ear.

Qiao Su's heart beat to the top of one hundred and two, and he looked back at him in disbelief, "Why are you here?" ”

Qin Shen pulled her back to the window and wrote in the palm of her hand: Looking for you.

Qiao Su breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to explain to him, but the picture behind him was even more inappropriate, and the woman's coquettish laughter was accompanied by belly pockets and socks flying all over the sky, making Qiao Su want to fall headfirst into the floor.

What could be more embarrassing than that!

Qin Shen smiled silently, staring at Qiao Su's burying his head more and more lower, only to think that this woman was extremely cute.

He hugged Qiao Su's waist with his hands, leaned his back against the window, and bowed his head and told Qiao Su, "Hold on to me." ”

"What?"

Qiao Su asked confusedly, and in the next second, Qin Shen actually jumped out of the window with her in her arms, and fell headfirst to the deck, she didn't have time to call for help, and the scene in front of her began to spin rapidly!

Qin Shen pressed her head firmly into his arms, not letting her make the slightest sound, Qiao Su closed her eyes tightly, and the weightless feeling of falling made her heart pound.

At the moment when the two of them landed, Qin Shen suddenly spun her in the air, and landed on the deck lightly, silently like a ghost in the night, and the night watchman was only ten feet away from them, and he didn't even notice it.

Qiao Su almost knelt down for Qin Shen as if he had seen a god.

"Go first, you're going to get into trouble if you're discovered." Qin Shenqiang held back a smile and took her back to the lower cabin with half a drag and half a hug.

The study was on the fourth floor of the ship, and the front and back combined, it was equivalent to her jumping from the third-floor window unharmed, so her legs were even weaker when she thought about it.

"You shouldn't be like the martial arts novels, you can fly the eaves and walk the wall, right?"

Qin Shen helped her sit down and lit the oil lamp, "It's light work, but why are you in the study?" ”

Qiao Su grabbed the straw under him irritably, and finally surrendered and said, "I want to inquire about the situation along the way, and by the way, ask how much the pearl necklace can be sold for, so as not to be deceived." ”

"Why don't you ask me?"

"You don't understand this, besides, you're injured, you have to recuperate in peace-" The words stopped abruptly in the middle of the sentence, Qiao Su looked at him in disbelief, and a voice sounded in her heart: She wasn't riding a donkey looking for a donkey, was she?

Qin Shen stretched out his hand to her, and Qiao Su obediently offered the pearl necklace with both hands.

Qin Shen approached the oil lamp and said: "Most of the colors are round and full, but they are not precious, the precious thing is the milky white snail shell bead in the middle, which is very similar to the precious phoenix snail shell bead, which is worth more than fifty taels." ”

Qiao Su's mouth opened wide in surprise when she heard this, she remembered that Qiao Su's biological mother's family had a champion, and this chain was the ancestral dowry, so it was really worth so much money?

But how does Qin Shen understand this?

"You put it away, the phoenix snail is rare in the world, it is precious wherever you go, with me, the pawnshop will not deceive you."

"You know martial arts, and you know luxury, what is the origin?" Josu was in no hurry to get the necklace back, and climbed up to him from the straw, like a curious kitten, "A rich boy disguised as a refugee?" The rich second generation who ran away from marriage and left home? Or the Jiangyang thief who washed his hands in a golden basinβ€”"

Qin Shen pushed her away expressionlessly, his arm trembled a little, and Qiao Su saw that the wound on his back was cracked, and the red blood seeped through the white cloth, making her heart tremble fiercely.

It's to save her again.

The air in the cramped cabin seemed to stagnate, and Qiao Su covered her heart, and there was an indescribable throbbing.

"I don't have a family, I don't have a past, just you-"

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been joking with you." Qiao Su obediently sat down in front of him, and took the initiative to bow his head and admit his mistake, "Although you are very strange all over your body, I shouldn't doubt you, you have saved me again and again, I said this kind of thing too hurtful." ”

Qin Shen looked at her steadily, this feeling was very strange, as if someone stabbed you with a knife in your scarred heart, and then regretted taking the knife away, and also helped you heal your injuries and apply medicine.

He slowly hooked the corners of his mouth, maybe Qiao Su was really special.

"I won't mention this in the future, if you don't want to say it, I won't ask, anyway, you've saved me so many times, even if-"

"You are my family, I will not harm you." Qin Shen said seriously.

Under the gaze of this burning gaze, Qiao Su blushed for no reason.

"Don't talk about this, I have something important to tell you." Qiao Su held up the oil lamp, shone it on his face, and said, "I saw Wen Xiaomo on the boat, that sticky spirit is too terrible, let's get off the boat as soon as possible, how about settling in Yuzhou, which is not far away, first?" ”

"Yuzhou City is closer to the capital of Dongquan State, but the area is not large, and the trade is not developed, so the situation is more stable."

"That's pretty much what it means, the person in charge told me that Yuzhou is the poorest wharf, the prices are low, the housing prices are low, maybe we can still buy a house."
