Sheng Siyan's clear phoenix eyes condensed slightly, snatched his hand away, took a step back to the door of the inn, and then smiled all over his face, and said to the woman's head: "This aunt, I see that your Yintang is black, and your face is full of evil, and it is not good to go out today, so hurry home and don't be deceived outside." +++..”

The smile on the woman's white face suddenly choked.

She was holding a white oil-paper umbrella, and at this time, the right hand holding the handle of the umbrella was bruised, staring at Sheng Siyan unkindly, and gradually darkened.

Sheng Siyan was originally standing at the door of the Tongfu Inn and waiting for Zhou Huaixuan to come over. She didn't expect that after just a while, someone would "take a fancy to" her......

Does she look too much, or does she have the words "people are stupid and easy to deceive" engraved on her forehead?

At the door of the inn, one of their guys laughed with his arms crossed, and pointed to the middle-aged woman: "Mrs. Zhu, I think you should go back." You have a lot of skinny horses at home, and you are still kidnapping girls outside, and you are not afraid of retribution? ”

"Retribution? Hehe, she's been punished. Don't you know that she has married several men, but none of them can have children? Don't give birth to sons, you can't even give birth to daughters. This is a bad thing, God can't see it......" Another vendor at the entrance of the inn said disdainfully.

That Zhu Pozi couldn't get up and down by them, and crossed her waist and glared at her eyes: "The old lady is kind enough to talk to this girl, which of your eyes saw me kidnapping her?" - The old lady can't be born or not, it has nothing to do with your fart! Hum! With a flick of the handkerchief, he held the umbrella, twisted the waist of the three-foot-wide bucket and turned to leave.

She walked in a hurry, and the rain on the umbrella threw Sheng Siyan's face.

Sheng Siyan couldn't dodge. Splashed in the eyes by the rain. I couldn't help but scream "hey". Busy rubbed his eyes with his hands.

Zhou Huaixuan went to the stable of the inn to put the carriage and tie the horse, and came over with an umbrella, just in time to see this scene.

He passed by the middle-aged woman with a calm face and walked over to Sheng Siyan's side.

The middle-aged woman only felt that her body was suddenly covered by cold, and there was a slight pain in her legs, as if she had been bitten by mosquitoes, but she didn't pay attention to it.

When she got home, she saw her man standing at the door waiting for her. Seeing that she was back, he hurriedly said: "The second master of the Jiang family sent someone over today to ask how those thin horses are doing, and whether they can be sent to the capital." ”

"What are you anxious about?" Mrs. Zhu took a bite of her man, "These skinny horses in our family are really not outstanding." The girl I saw at the door of the Tongfu Inn today is a beautiful girl, if you can let me train and train, send it to the palace to be a mother. Alas, alas...... It's a pity......" she shook her head.

"So powerful?" The man's eyes lit up, and there was a greedy look in his eyes. "Which one? Do you want us to do it? Get her back? ”

Their family's skinny horses are available from all sorts of sources. Some were sold by their parents, brothers, sisters-in-law and uncles, and some were separated from their families during the temple fair, and were abducted and sold to them by abductors, and of course, there were also those who were optimistic about themselves and abducted back in person.

But the qualifications are really not particularly outstanding.

Mrs. Zhu remembered the beauty of the girl she saw before, and she was also a little moved, thought about it, and said, "Send someone to the Tongfu Inn to keep an eye on it, I'll take a break, and I'll be there tomorrow." ”

As a result, a huge bag swollen from the stinging spot on her left leg that quickly festered and suppurated, and within a few days she had to be sawed off, otherwise it would be life-threatening.

Without her legs, she can no longer go out and sell girls.

This matter was known to the locals, and it was also her retribution, which is not to be mentioned later.

The two people sent by Mrs. Zhu to keep an eye on the Tongfu Inn later died in the river pond outside the town for unknown reasons, and she also got into trouble because of this, if it wasn't for the second master Jiang to protect her, she would have spent her life in prison.

……

Of course, Sheng Siyan didn't know that they traveled once in a while, and they cleaned up a local big family who abducted and sold girls to raise thin horses, she only knew that anyone who bullied her, as long as Zhou Huaixuan knew, would not end well.

Earlier, she kindly reminded the middle-aged woman that she was "blackened and had seven evils on her face", which was indeed not white.

Zhou Huaixuan came to Sheng Siyan with an oil-paper umbrella and said lightly: "Why don't you go in?" ”

The rain washed away the yellow powder on her face, revealing white and delicate skin, and with the delicate clear light of her eyes, people couldn't take their eyes off it at a glance.

Sheng Siyan raised his head and smiled, "I'm waiting for you." Then, he grabbed Zhou Huaixuan's arm.

The corners of Zhou Huaixuan's lips raised slightly, and he took her into the inn.

The two of them had dinner in the lobby downstairs.

The dishes here are all Jiangnan flavors, and the original flavor of the ingredients is delicious, which is very suitable for Sheng Siyan's appetite.

This inn is the largest inn in the town, and the dining hall downstairs is even livelier than the average restaurant.

At dinnertime, it was simply overcrowded.

On the table next to Zhou Huaixuan and Sheng Siyan, there were two young men and women.

At first they thought it was a couple like them.

Later, I heard the man say to the woman, "A'e, come with me." So what's so good about the butcher's house? Even if his family has money, he is not willing to spend it on you, what is the use? He has ten thousand taels, and he will give you five thousand taels. I only have a hundred taels, but I am willing to give them all to you. In addition, Zeng Butcher had a violent temperament and beat people at every turn. Sister E, you are delicate and weak, how can you stand ......"

The woman seemed to be a little excited, grabbed the man's hand, and called out emotionally: "Brother Huan! You're so good to me! ”

Burst!

Sheng Siyan tilted his head, and a sip of tea squirted out impartially, spraying right on the ground at the man's feet.

The man immediately turned around and roared at Sheng Siyan: "Slut! Spit on your mother's ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, a stone from nowhere slammed into the man's mouth, knocking off his two front teeth.

"Ah——!h The man covered his mouth and screamed, looked around in panic, and ran away with a puff of smoke.

The woman was also startled, and then stood up to leave, but the innkeeper stopped her. "This girl." You haven't paid yet......"

The woman was ashamed and angry. He glared at Sheng Siyan hatefully, put down a dozen copper coins, and then quickly left.

Sheng Siyan sighed and shook his head, looked at Zhou Huaixuan and smiled: "Huaixuan, what about you?" How much silver will you give me? ”

Zhou Huaixuan didn't eat much, just sipped a glass of sake, didn't look at her when he heard the words, and said lightly: "How much do you want?" ”

Sheng Siyan: "......" had to look at him with disgust. Put down the chopsticks, "I'm full." ”

Zhou Huaixuan put down the wine glass and went upstairs with her.

Walking into the guest room where the two lived and closing the door, Zhou Huaixuan looked at her and said, "Even the silver has to be divided between each other, this kind of person, it doesn't matter if you don't marry." ”

Sheng Siyan was overjoyed when she heard this, and couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and kiss him on the face.

The two of them live in the upper room of Tianzi No. 1 in the inn, and all the covers are new. The food is very clean and delicious, and Sheng Siyan is very happy to eat and live.

The next day. The two of them settled the bill from the inn, left the town, and continued westward.

Xu was drenched in the rain in that town yesterday, and Sheng Siyan began to have a fever when it was dark.

Zhou Huaixuan looked at her burnt red cheeks and forced smile, and was anxious, but when he was about to cross the river, he found that the only bridge on the river was washed away by yesterday's heavy rain.

The boat that could cross the river was no longer available at this time, and it had to wait until dawn.

Zhou Huaixuan couldn't, so he had to drive along the road to find a place to stay.

Fortunately, Jiangnan is populated, and it didn't take long to find a village.

Zhou Huaixuan drove Sheng Siyan into the village and found a medium-sized family at the entrance of the village to spend the night.

There are only two old families in the family, no son, and the daughter is married, and there are many houses in the family.

"Alright, come in. Seeing that your daughter-in-law is so sick, is she having a high fever? The old mother of the village said very enthusiastically.

Zhou Huaixuan nodded and said lightly: "There is labor." Then he carried the drowsy Sheng Siyan into the house.

They moved into a wing.

The house was very clean.

Zhou Huaixuan put Sheng Siyan on the bed, took out the herbs they brought, borrowed a medicine hanger and a stove from the old couple who stayed overnight, lit a fire in the wing, and personally decocted Sheng Siyan.

After a meal, three bowls of water were finally fried into one bowl of water.

Sheng Siyan was so confused that Zhou Huaixuan tried to feed her medicine several times, but he couldn't feed her, and then he couldn't do it, so he drank a sip of medicine by himself, and then hugged Sheng Siyan and fed her mouth to mouth.

Sheng Siyan only opened his mouth slightly when his lips came together.

After tossing like this for a long time, I fed a bowl of medicine.

Zhou Huaixuan wiped the sweat from his forehead, put the bowl aside, and probed Sheng Siyan's forehead with his hand, waiting for her fever to subside.

"This son, my wife made you a meal and put it at the door." The voice of the old man of the family who was staying overnight came from outside the door.

Zhou Huaixuan stood up, opened the door, and saw a tray at the door, on which were placed a bowl of yellow and clear rice, a bowl of vegetarian fried vegetables, a bowl of fried bacon with white sauce, and a bowl of egg soup with cabbage, all of which were typical farmhouse dishes in Jiangnan.

Zhou Huaixuan smiled, bent down and took the tray in.

This night, Zhou Huaixuan didn't sleep, he kept sitting on the edge of the bed, and kept changing the handkerchief on Sheng Siyan's forehead.

The cold water was changed one basin after another, and when it was dawn, Sheng Siyan finally sweated profusely, and the burning was receded.

She opened her eyes and saw Zhou Huaixuan's concerned eyes, as well as his big hand with a faint warmth, which was on her forehead to test her temperature.

She remembered that no matter when she used to, Zhou Huaixuan's palms were cold and cold. Now that she has a faint temperature, it can be regarded as her credit......

Sheng Siyan smiled weakly at him, saw the bloodshot in his eyes, and said in a low voice, "You can sleep for a while." ”

Zhou Huaixuan smiled, "I'm not sleepy." Then, he put his hand down and touched her back, "It's all sweaty, wash it." ”

Sheng Siyan also felt sweaty on his body, so he answered and got up to wash.

There is no bath room here, it was Zhou Huaixuan who went out to boil hot water for her and brought it back, put it in the center of the wing, and sat next to it with a wooden barrel to wipe her body.

Sheng Siyan was a person who had just subsided from the fever, his body was weak, and he was so tired and out of breath after taking a bath that he went back to bed and fell asleep.

She slept until the evening.

When I opened my eyes, I saw Zhou Huaixuan sitting on the edge of the bed silently.

Sheng Siyan hurriedly said: "Huaixuan, you can't hold on any longer, go to sleep." I'm all cured. ”

Zhou Huaixuan smiled faintly, shook his head and said, "I'm not tired." He asked Sheng Siyan again: "What do you want to eat?" ”

From yesterday to today, Sheng Siyan has not eaten for two days.

Yesterday I was sick and I don't feel it yet.

Today's fever subsided, and after another day of rest, she felt that she couldn't stand being hungry, and subconsciously said, "...... Egg fried rice. After a little stumbling, he said, "Other meals are fine." ”

Zhou Huaixuan headed, "You rest for a while." And walked out.

Sheng Siyan waited on the bed for a meal, and seeing that Zhou Huaixuan hadn't come back yet, he was worried about whether something had happened to him, so he hurriedly got dressed and got up, and pushed open the door with a thick velvet cloak to take a look.

The old couple who stayed at the house seemed to have slept, and there was no light in the main room.

However, there is a house in the northeast corner of the courtyard that shines through.

Sheng Siyan looked at it, it was the direction of the kitchen, and walked over curiously.

She stood at the door of the kitchen and saw Zhou Huaixuan, who had always been in a light robe and seemed to have a habit of cleanliness, sitting in front of the stove, and was taking a blowtorch to blow fire into the stove.

He looked a little clumsy, as if it was the first time he had gone to the kitchen, with a few traces of soot on his cheeks, and a trace of sideburns hanging down from his ears, which made his side face as handsome as a heavenly man.

On the kitchen table, there are several plates of fried egg fried rice......
