Chapter 126: Sleep in one room
Chu Tiankuo took the incense of cigarettes and walked to the north of Sioux City. If nothing else, we will be able to rush to Matsuyama tomorrow.
Matsuyama was only a few dozen miles away from where they were. If you get on your horse and whip it up, you will arrive in less than two hours. However, in order to communicate more with Yanxiang so that she could recover her memory as soon as possible, Chu Tiankuo specially chose to walk. It also bypassed the official road of pedestrians and took the small road.
The two of them walked on the sparsely populated path, and as far as the eye could see, there was a field of green grass and flowers. Stopping and stopping along the way, it is as pleasant as a tour of the mountains and rivers.
Yanxiang secretly admired the strength of the senior brother's heart in his heart. When ordinary people encounter unjust murder and rumors are flying all over the sky, they have long been furious, and they are so panicked that the six gods have no owner. He was like no one, talking and laughing along the way.
She has a good impression of the senior brother in her heart.
After the sun went down, they stopped at an inn called 'Yuanlai Inn'. This inn has the same name as the inn where Yanxiang Chu stayed in the mountains. It's just that this is Sioux City, and the inn where I lived before was in Fengcheng. It is said that the owner of both inns is the same person. The dΓ©cor and layout of the two inns are the same.
Yanxiang stood at the door of the inn, and when he looked up, he saw that the plaque read, 'Yuanlai Inn', and there was a sense of dΓ©jΓ vu.
The two walked into the inn, and a bloated woman saw that their eyes lit up, put down the abacus in their hands, ran over, and greeted warmly: "Are a few guest officers staying in the hotel?"
"Give us a normal room." Chu Tiankuo coughed dryly and said softly.
The female shopkeeper looked at them with disdain, and looked at them meaningfully, and that gaze was extremely complicated. She couldn't understand why the old man and young man in front of her, who didn't look like a couple, only booked a room. The two of them were brightly dressed, and they didn't look like lords with no money, but they booked an ordinary room as soon as they opened their mouths. It's incredible.
Of course, Chu Tiankuo didn't have no silver, let alone save some silver. The reason why he chose to book an ordinary room was because of the incense of cigarettes. A few months ago, he had lived in the same ordinary room as Yanxiang. Hopefully, the familiar scene will awaken her memory soon.
However, Yanxiang did not understand the good intentions of the senior brother. She raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper." Is there still a room? β
The shopkeeper's face shone again, and he flattered, "Yes." Some. There was so much room. There are several more good rooms, and many of the empty rooms are adjacent. Her shrewd brain turned quickly, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Chu Tiankuo's slightly moved face, and coughed lightly: "Of course, there are still many ordinary rooms left." β
"Then I need another upper room." Smoke shouted. Anyway, the elder brother who paid the bill, what he had was silver, and he didn't spend it in vain. Smoke doesn't want to be harsh on itself.
As soon as the cigarette incense fell, Chu Tiankuo immediately came to her side and whispered in her ear: "The silver is not enough." β
Smoke opened his mouth wide, and a pair of big watery eyes stared at him with a surprised expression. Doesn't seem to want to believe what he's saying is true.
Chu Tiankuo pretended to be embarrassed and embarrassed, and Yanxiang was deceived by his acting skills.
Yanxiang smiled embarrassedly at the shopkeeper, and waved his hands: "No." Shopkeeper's. Just one room is good. In order to hide her embarrassment, she pointed at Chu Tiankuo and added somehow: "My father has no money." β
The shopkeeper glanced at Chu Tiankuo.
Chu Tiankuo's face instantly stiffened. His face twitched slightly, a little displeased. Yanxiang not only called him his father, but also said that he had no money. He had a disgraced feeling.
Yan Xiang looked at the senior brother's slightly moved appearance, pursed his lips and snickered.
The shopkeeper called the shopkeeper over and said lightly: "Take these two guest officers to see the ordinary room." With that, he turned and walked away.
The shopkeeper led them to see the ordinary room. The room is still furnished like Fengcheng's 'Yuanlai Inn'. The shopkeeper cleaned up the table in the room, closed the door, and withdrew.
Chu Tiankuo sat down around the table.
Smoke was stunned and walked over to the edge of the bed and sat down.
There was silence in the room.
Chu Tiankuo wanted to open his mouth to talk to Yanxiang, but he didn't know where to start.
Smoke was silent, sitting on the edge of the bed, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong. How could the elder brother not have money? He is the young owner of Bixiang Villa, with a family fortune of millions, how can he be so stingy and save money for a house?
She looked at the ground with her eyes and asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, why don't you book more rooms?" β
Chu Tiankuo laughed and said, "I didn't tell you, the silver is not enough." β
"No money is just your excuse!" Smoke paused for a moment, rolled his eyes, bent the corners of his mouth, and suddenly said, "Oh." I understand. Do you want to insult me while I'm asleep? β
Chu Tiankuo's face flushed slightly: "You...... What nonsense are you talking about? He glanced at the cigarette with a soft gaze, but said no more.
The smoke is becoming more and more unscrupulous. She only knew that the senior brother was magnanimous, but she didn't know how big he was. She deliberately provoked him in words and deeds, but she didn't think about it, he was as tall as Mount Tai, as quiet as a general who dispatched thousands of troops.
Yan Xiang thought, there should be a reason why the senior brother did this. He didn't want to say it, forget it. However, it is too embarrassing for a lonely man and a widow to be in the same room.
She pondered for a long time, but still asked, "Senior brother, we live in the same room, how can I sleep?" β
"What how to sleep? Didn't we often sleep in the same room before? Chu Tiankuo wrote lightly.
He must have done it on purpose. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the shyness of the cigarette incense. I couldn't help but secretly laugh in my heart. The smoke is crazy, and it looks more and more cute. He just couldn't help but want to tease her.
Smoke Xiang's face turned red, and his heart was extremely chaotic. How could she have slept in the same room with her brother before? It is said that men and women can't kiss, how can she? Could it be that she used to be so indecent?
She sat on the edge of the bed, her head bowed, and was silent.
Chu Tiankuo brought up the old words again: "Smoke." How's that, do you remember anything now? β
Smoke Xiang suddenly realized. It turns out that the elder brother's intentions are here. He was trying to get her back to her memory quickly.
However, she looked at this place, and it was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember anything.
She laughed and said, "No." β
Chu Tiankuo's eyes darkened, and he said softly, "Okay." Go to bed early. β
The bed is small and the quilt is not big. The cigarette consciously moved to the side of the bed against the wall, making room for a large area.
Chu Tiankuo looked at her small movement, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a slight smile. Yanxiang really believed him, and was going to reserve a bed for him. He pretended not to be aware and said nothing. He sat down, his chin resting on one palm, and dozing off with his elbow against the table.
