Chapter 113: Fucheng Murder
Gu Feng turned his head to look at Su Jiu'er, and saw that her face was a little bad, and knew that she was frightened.
"It's fine." Gu Feng stretched out his hand to hold Su Jiu'er's hand and said softly, "Let's leave here tomorrow." ”
"I'm fine." Su Jiu'er smiled, cold sweat broke out in her palms, for fear that Gu Feng would notice that there was sweat in her palms, so she hurriedly pulled her hand out of his hand.
Habitually about to take Gu Feng's arm, Su Jiu'er inexplicably remembered what Zhao said, and looked at Gu Feng hesitantly, "Xianggong, let's go back to the inn quickly, it's not too early." ”
On the way, Gu Feng looked at a shop selling pastries, bought a few pastries, and then followed Su Jiu'er to the inn.
The two of them ordered some food and asked the shopkeeper to send it directly to the room.
Along the way, Su Jiu'er's heart was tense, for fear that a masked man with a knife would jump out from the side to be unfavorable to them.
Sitting in the inn, Su Jiu'er felt that she was too cautious just now.
Sensei said otherwise, if a few people dare to commit murder in broad daylight, as long as they do it, they will be sent to the government.
Su Jiu'er put the burden she brought on the stool on the side, habitually took off all the bedding from the inn and put it aside, and replaced it with the sheets and quilts she brought herself.
"Knock knock."
"Come in." Gu Feng was rubbing his bow and replied casually.
"This master, the meal you asked for has been delivered." The shopkeeper smiled and put all the food on the table, and when he saw that Gu Feng gave him a reward, the smile on his face became even brighter, "Use it slowly." ”
"Send in a bucket of bathwater!" Out of the corner of Gu Feng's eyes, he glanced at Su Jiu'er, who was making the bed, and beckoned to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper leaned down slightly to Gu Feng's ear and asked cautiously, "This master, what else do you have to order?" ”
Gu Feng glanced at Su Jiu'er, saw that she didn't notice this, and lowered his voice, "There was a recent case of destruction in Shacheng, I heard that it was the Shao family, which Shao family is it?" ”
The shopkeeper smiled knowingly, groveled, and said softly, "There is only one family surnamed Shao in Shacheng, the master of the Shao family is named Shao Ziqiu, and there is only one girl under his knees, and her name seems to be Yan'er." ”
Shao, Shao Ziqiu?
Gu Feng only felt a cold sweat on his back, and his sword eyebrows were tightly locked, "When did it happen to destroy the door?" ”
"A month ago, it was terrible." The shopkeeper's face became more and more ugly, and his expression became more serious, "The Shao family is a big family in our Shacheng, that morning, someone sent water to the Shao family, called for a long time, no one opened the back door for him, he stepped forward to knock on the door, but unexpectedly the door opened, and he saw the corpse lying in the backyard, and the person was directly frightened and fainted. ”
Gu Feng noticed that Su Jiu'er was about to make up the mattress, so he hurriedly waved his hand to the shopkeeper and gave the shopkeeper a few copper plates.
The shopkeeper smiled and took the copper plate into his arms and withdrew with a smile.
Su Jiu'er washed her hands, took the towel on the side and wiped it clean, walked to the table and sat down, looked at the food on the table, and pursed her lips slightly, "It's done so quickly." ”
Gu Feng handed the dishes and chopsticks to Su Jiu'er, his face was gentle, "I see that there are many little ladies in Shacheng who wear hairpins, and you can buy one to wear before you go back tomorrow." ”
Su Jiu'er wears wooden hairpins on weekdays, and on the way back, she also saw that those little ladies were wearing silver hairpins, thinking about the cost of money, she was a little reluctant in her heart.
But men like their women to look better, Gu Feng must have thought that others looked good wearing hairpins like that, so he proposed this.
Su Jiu'er's hand holding the chopsticks clenched involuntarily, and after thinking about it, she looked at Gu Feng with a smile in her eyes, "Okay." ”
Reliving a life, Su Jiu'er naturally knows what kind of dressing men will like.
In the past, An Zeqing liked those little girls who wore bells and whistles and had hairpins and handkerchiefs on their heads.
After the two of them took a bath together, Su Jiu'er nested in Gu Feng's arms full of vigilance, and was so frightened that he couldn't sleep at the thought that Shacheng was unsafe.
There was a sound of beating outside, Su Jiu'er's body trembled, and the hand that grabbed Gu Feng's clothes couldn't help but work harder.
"Scared?"
The back was gently stroked by Gu Feng's right hand, and Su Jiu'er only felt that the goosebumps all over her body had receded a lot, "A little." ”
Su Jiu'er is telling the truth, she has never been very bold, she usually just pretends to be good, so people can't see that she is timid.
"I'm here," Gu Feng said absentmindedly, and the words of the shopkeeper sounded, frowning slightly, "Let's go home tomorrow, don't think so much." ”
Listening to Gu Feng's low and slightly magnetic voice, Su Jiu'er closed her eyes in a daze......
After having breakfast in Piaoxianglou early in the morning, Gu Feng settled the bill, and then led the donkey cart and Su Jiu'er towards the outside of the city.
Passing by a Treasure Pavilion, Gu Feng pulled Su Jiu'er towards the Treasure Pavilion.
The shopkeeper guarding the door to attract customers was very eye-catching, helping Gu Feng and Su Jiu'er lead the donkey cart.
There weren't many people in the Treasure Pavilion, and the other guys in the store saw the two of them coming in and hurriedly greeted them.
"What do you want?" A young man who was about fourteen years old approached Gu Feng and Su Jiu'er with a smile on his face, and said flatteringly, "This little lady is so beautiful, and I think that the little lady will definitely look better if she wears our hairpin." ”
Su Jiu'er pursed her lips slightly, but did not speak.
Gu Feng listened to the words of the shop guy very much, and looked at Su Jiu'er with a smile in his eyes, "What do you like?" ”
Su Jiu'er raised her face with a smile, and her voice was pleasant, "It's simpler, I don't really like the complexity of the style." ”
"The style is simple and elegant."
As soon as Gu Feng's words fell, the shopkeeper took out four boxes from the shelf, placed them on the cabinet, and looked at Gu Feng and Su Jiu'er flatteringly, "Look, two of you, these are good-looking?" ”
Su Jiu'er's eyes fell on the hairpins in the box, which were only carved with simple patterns, which were really simple and generous.
Su Jiu'er likes this kind of thing.
Picking out a jade-inlaid silver hairpin from it, Su Jiu'er turned her head to look at Gu Feng on the side, her eyes shining, "Xianggong, what do you think of this?" ”
Gu Feng nodded, this was the one he had just taken a fancy to.
"The two of you are really good eyes, this hairpin is very suitable for this little lady, five taels of silver, it is already very cheap." The shopkeeper's mouth was talking quickly, and he looked at the two people with a smile.
"Can it be cheaper?" Su Jiu'er slowly put the hairpin back and asked lightly.
"It really can't be cheaper, we never bargain in the Treasure Pavilion." The shopkeeper said with some embarrassment, silently closing the other boxes.
"Five taels of silver is five taels of silver." Gu Feng paid the money and took Su Jiu'er's hand and came out of the Treasure Pavilion.
Su Jiu'er held the box nervously with her other hand, thinking that this little thing would cost five taels of silver, and the things in Fucheng were really expensive.
The two of them went out of Shacheng, and then they got on the donkey cart and drove outside.
Li Jiabuzhuang gave Su Jiu'er two silver tickets of one thousand taels, and Su Jiu'er didn't dare to take so much money at all, so he let Gu Feng put it on his body.
It was also the first time that Gu Feng had loaded so much money, and he couldn't help but be nervous.
No matter where you are, it's not as comfortable as your own home.
Gu Feng and Su Jiu'er stayed at the inn at night and hurried away, and this time it only took more than a day and a half to return to Zhaojia Village.
There were still many people grinding wheat on the threshing floor, and Su Jiu'er sat outside the donkey cart with Gu Feng, hurrying towards home.
A donkey cart was added to the house, and Su Jiu'er pondered about building a shed for the donkey, Gu Feng knew Su Jiu'er's thoughts, and pondered about building one next to the chicken coop.
The Zhao family heard that Gu Feng and Su Jiu'er had returned, and they didn't work anymore, so they hurriedly walked towards the Gu family.
Before he walked in, he saw a donkey cart parked at the door, Zhao's eyes lit up, he smiled in front of the donkey, reached out and touched the donkey's hair.
The donkey turned around arrogantly and ignored Zhao, bowing his head to graze.
"Gu Feng, wine." Zhao walked to the gate, looked inside, and saw the two people cleaning up the yard.
"Mother-in-law."
"Hey." The Zhao family looked at Gu Feng now, and the more they looked at it, the more satisfied they became, thinking in their hearts that it would be good if Gu Feng could also be an official, so that the wine would not have to work.
After Gu Feng finished saying hello, he lowered his head and continued to clean up the yard.
"Mother, you're just in time." Su Jiu'er's sleeves were rolled up, revealing a small half of his white and tender arms, which was particularly eye-catching.
Zhao hurriedly took out the key and was about to hand it to Su Jiu'er, looking at the dirty hands on her hands, "What are you busy with?" ”
Stuffing the key into the money bag on Su Jiu'er's waist, Zhao's sharp eyes saw the silver hairpin in Su Jiu'er's hair, and the corners of his lips hooked, "This hairpin is really beautiful." ”
Su Jiu'er tilted her head sideways, so that the Zhao family could see more clearly, "This is what Xianggong bought in Fucheng with me." ”
"Take care of yourself on weekdays, so that it looks good." Zhao couldn't help but admonish, many men said I don't care how you look, but in the bottom of my heart, I still hope that my woman will clean up better.
"Mother, I'm thinking about going to you for a while!" Su Jiu'er didn't have much interest in picking up herself, if she and Gu Feng had been in the village, I was afraid that there would be few people who looked better than her, "I thought I would ask you to help us collect the old grain." ”
Su Jiu'er's words made Zhao stunned.
Zhao had heard of receiving new grain, but he had never heard of anyone still wanting to collect old grain.
Zhao wondered if Gu Feng and Su Jiu'er had no money, so they thought about collecting old grain.
When Su Jiu'er got married, the Gu family should not have much money, but now the two of them have built this big house with blue bricks and red tiles, bought such a big donkey cart, and bought a hairpin, and the Zhao family has such a total in their hearts, these must add up to hundreds of taels of silver.
"Hey, what kind of old food do you receive, if you and Gu Feng don't have food to eat, I'll send you some later," Zhao shook his head with a helpless smile, "You two are really, what is there to be polite to your father and mother about this kind of thing!" ”
Su Jiu'er heard Zhao say this, understood that Zhao had misunderstood her, and hurriedly explained, "I want to stock up on grain with Xianggong!" ”
