Chapter 25: Shen Qiuyuan
Chasing the shadow for several streets along the way, she was so tired that she was almost fluttering.
At first, I chased it out without thinking much about it, but then I suddenly found that the shadow was very familiar, very similar to Dabao's figure.
She grabbed a man who sold pastries and asked if he had seen a child, and the man was still smiling at first, and after knowing that she was not buying something, he shook his head with an indifferent look and hunger, and sent her away impatiently.
She continued to ask the two people, and both of them said that they didn't see the child, so she was even more sure that the person just now was Dabao.
There must have been something wrong with him coming to her, but why did he suddenly disappear again, she didn't understand, she was confused!
So, she walked aimlessly down the street, waiting for Dabao to come back to her.
Walk to a small inn, the inn is not big, but the decoration is extremely good, the food inside is a must, but there are not many people, because the price is more expensive, stay here for a night, you can live in other places for a few days.
She looked at the plaque with some wistfulness, she had lived here since she was kicked out by Gu Changqing last time.
The smell wafted out of it, and she regretted that she hadn't eaten something and came out again.
Looking at the sky helplessly, the last bit of light was about to be swallowed up by snowflakes, the small shops on the street had already turned on the lights, all kinds of lanterns hung on the door beams, and the snowflakes were also colorful!
"Is that you?"
A cool voice like spring rain sounded in his ears, Xie Ling looked over, looked at the person in front of him and said excitedly, "Why are you here?" ”
The words are full of surprise that can't be hidden.
This man's name is Shen Qiuyuan, that is, after she was kicked out by Gu Changqing, she also walked and came to the front of this small inn, just like just now Standing at the door for a long time, homeless, the loneliness and desolation of the four seas for home were infinitely magnified at that moment!
She stood in the doorway, sniffed, and strode in.
When the shopkeeper saw her, he greeted her, "Guest officer, are you eating or staying in the hotel?" ”
Although Xie Ling has no money, he has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and he has never done all kinds of things and seen a lot.
Although he was shy, he still said with a lot of energy, "I eat and stay at the hotel." As he spoke, he reached out and shook his pocket to show the shopkeeper, "Everything has to be the best." ”
Under the bold words, the shopkeeper also believed it, and he didn't expect that Xie Ling's pocket was full of deceitful gadgets. All of them were small round pebbles, which she had packed in before, but she didn't expect them to come in handy at this time.
The shopkeeper found an empty seat for her to sit down as requested, but as everyone knows, all this was seen by a person sitting in a secluded corner.
The guards beside Shen Qiuyuan also stared at Xie Ling, and then said to their master, "Do you need me to do anything?"
He just shook his head, "I just thought it was interesting." ”
In fact, they had already seen that Xie Ling was tired of the cat in his pocket, but when they went out, they had to treat everything they saw as if they didn't know what was done by a wise man.
They are also happy to see the excitement.
Xie Ling ate enough wine and food, and sat there bored, not saying anything about leaving or paying the money.
Although there are not many people staying at this restaurant, there is a lot of people eating. From time to time, the shopkeeper also found that she had eaten almost enough.
walked over slowly, looking at her with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Guest officer, you see that there are so many of us, why don't we settle the bill first, so that others can also have a hot meal!" ”
Although Xie Ling didn't raise his head, he had already looked at the direction, and he had already thought about how to run for a while, and the route was already figured out.
The shopkeeper saw that she didn't answer, and continued, "Guest officer, according to your requirements, we will serve you all the best wine and food, a total of three taels of silver, you see ......"
Xie Ling was taken aback, and couldn't help but raise his voice to interrupt the shopkeeper's words, "What? These cost three taels of silver? ”
You must know that she has never taken so much money except for a purse of five taels of silver by chance.
The shopkeeper was not annoyed, and still said good-naturedly, "You eat the best snowflake beef and farmhouse stupid chicken, and that bottle of wine, which is the best Shili Hong." ”
Xie Ling cursed in his heart, he was simply eating people without spitting out bones.
The hand stretched out by the shopkeeper has not been taken back, he is waiting for Xie Ling, a big family, to get the silver, Xie Ling looked at him and smiled embarrassedly, she knew how many catties and taels she had, three taels of silver, I was afraid that it would not be worth the price to sell herself to him.
The shopkeeper also noticed that something was wrong at this time, he had been in business for so many years, and he had never seen anyone, so he changed his tone and said, "Are you out of money?" ”
Seeing that Xie Ling was about to run, he hurriedly shouted loudly, "Come on, there are people here who don't give money for dinner." ”
At this moment, Shen Qiuyuan, who had been watching the play in his feet, got up and said lightly, "I think this girl's money can be owed, I just saw that her purse was stolen, and it is estimated that it can be delivered when someone else sends the money?" ”
Then he looked at Xie Ling and smiled lightly, "Girl, but so?" ”
Being forced up the slope, she had to nod her head, "That's the case, my relatives will send me money in a few days, and I will hand it over to you when the time comes." ”
The shopkeeper looked at the man who spoke, and said respectfully, "Since Shen Gongzi has spoken, then this meal will be waived, and it will be treated as if we invited it!" ”
Xie Ling smiled, "Thank you." ”
The man also smiled at him and said something that made Xie Ling especially want to retract what he had just said.
