Hua Niang said a little sadly: "There was a fire in this Ah Niu's house, and everyone in the family died, leaving him alone, because of the fright, he sometimes remembered the past, and sometimes he couldn't remember." But he still has the strength and skills, and it should be possible to protect his son. “

"That's right. . . Satsuki pretended to be embarrassed.

Hua Niang glanced at Ah Niu, making him close to Xiaoyue.

Ah Niu scratched his neck with his hand, and said a little shyly: "Childe, I... I'll protect you. ”

"Oh, but why should I ask you for protection?" Xiao Yue always felt that this Ah Niu was sometimes shrewd and sometimes stupid, and he couldn't figure out whether this person was really stupid or fake, so he took the opportunity to investigate. "I have silver, and I can invite anyone in the market, what are your advantages?"

"Advantages?" Ah Niu looked at Hua Niang, then at Xiao Yue, and stammered: "I... I am a man who cannot speak ... Will only do things. I... I don't want money... You can eat and drink every day. ”

Ah Niu looked at Yun Yan next to him and frowned, but Xiao Yue still didn't say a word, and didn't add a sentence: "That... It's okay not to drink... I.... Ah Niu lowered his head, looked at the worn shoes on his feet, and didn't know what kind words to say in order for Satsuki to hire him.

"I know that my face is too ugly, if Childe doesn't dislike it, Ah Niu will definitely protect Childe well in the future and not be disheartened. ”

In fact, Xiao Yue just wants to get such a promise, and the person close to her always has to find a reliable one, although she is not sure whether his promise is true or false, but at least he said so, Xiao Yue also felt a lot more relieved, and she was very satisfied with Ah Niu before.

"Well, don't get paid, that sounds good. Xiao Yue smiled and said to Yun Yan, "What do you think?"

Yun Yan looked at Ah Niu with disgust, sighed and said, "It's good if Childe likes it, I don't have any opinion." ”

"You're the head of Ouchi, how can you have no opinions?" Xiao Yue teased.

Yun Yan smiled bitterly and said, "Originally, the mansion really needed to hire a guard, but I can't see if this person can do it!"

Xiaoyue looked at the flower girl who was a little anxious on the side, and Ah Niu with a disappointed face, and said with a smile: "Then let's try it for two months first, Ah Niu, what's your name?"

"Poor cow. No, it's Niu Kelian. Ah Niu remembered the name that the girl had given him last night.

"Well, that's a good name. Xiaoyue herself also felt that this name was very good, "Well, I will still call you Ah Niu in the future, we will try you for two months first, if you are satisfied, you will stay, if you are not satisfied, we still won't want you." How?"

This is close to the end of the year, Niu Kelian is penniless, and he owes the flower girl half a tael of silver for wine, sometimes there are odd jobs and can make some money, but there is no long employer, always eat the last meal without the next meal, if you can go to the house of Wen Gongzi to work, it is the best thing.

Niu Kelian was very happy and nodded, "I will definitely satisfy my son." ”

Hua Niang was also very happy to see it, "Childe, Ah Niu is a sincere person, and he will definitely satisfy Childe." ”

"Well, okay, Ah Niu, you will follow me in the future, and you will go wherever I go. Xiao Yue saw his happy appearance, and also set some rules for him, "I don't like people who talk too much, what will I do in the future, don't ask too much, to the outside world, this is the most basic rule, can you do it?"

"En. Niu Kelian kept nodding.

"Congratulations, Ah Niu, Gongzi Wen is a good person, you will live a good life. Hua Niang patted Ah Niu's arm.

"Okay, I originally came to buy an inn, but I hired a worker first, hahaha, Hua Niang, let's go see the inn. ”

Hua Niang thought to herself that a person like Ah Niu could be accepted by Wen Gongzi, and there was no problem with her inn, so she would be more confident. "Okay, Childe, please come with me. ”

Hua Niang took out a bunch of door keys from under the cabinet, and then took Xiaoyue and them from the first floor to the second floor, and looked at them in a hurry.

Actually, Xiaoyue saw it yesterday, and she was also pretending, and by the way, she asked about the situation of the inn.

"How many rooms does the inn have now?"

"Now there are twenty-four rooms in total. ”

"But I just counted, there are ten rooms downstairs, ten rooms upstairs, where are there twenty-two rooms?"

"There are two more in the backyard, wait and take your son over to have a look. ”

"There's no rush. Xiao Yue walked in the room where she stayed last night, pushed open the door and looked at it, and then walked to a guest room facing the door, "Hua Niang, is there a guest in this room?"

"I just left this morning, and I haven't had time to pack up yet. ”

"It's okay, you open it and show me. ”

Hua Niang smiled and said, "It's inconvenient to let Childe in if you don't clean it." She pointed to a guest room next to her, "This one is the same, it's all a lot room." ”

"Well, okay then, please open the door. Xiao Yue looked at the two central ground houses, a little curious.

Hua Niang took out a bunch of keys in her hand, and soon found the key to this room, opened the door lock, and pushed the door open, "Childe, please come in." ”

Xiao Yue raised her feet and crossed the threshold, and then looked at the guest room, and when she entered the door, she could see a foyer, with a table of eight immortals in the middle, and four stools, and on the right side of the foyer was the bedroom, the room was spotless, and the quilt on the bed was neatly folded.

"How much does it cost to stay here?"

"Three copper plates in one night. ”

"How much is that little room I just looked at for a night?"

"A copper plate. ”

Xiao Yue remembered that Hua Niang said before that the room between the two seemed to be two copper plates, and she wanted to see what the Tianzi room looked like now, especially the room where Empress Mu lived.

"Hua Niang, take me to see the Tianzi room. ”

"Yes, okay. The flower girl led them downstairs, and then walked through a narrow passage to the backyard of the inn.

Xiao Yue looked at this backyard is surrounded by a courtyard wall, although it is very large, but it is not empty, there are a lot of flowers and plants planted in it, just like the back garden of her own house, there is a path paved with bluestone bricks on the ground.

Across a meadow and pond, they saw a lone two-story attic at the innermost end of the backyard.

"This is the Tianzi house, and no one lives in it now. Hua Niang took the key to open the room on the first floor, "Childe can go in and have a look." ”

"Okay. Xiao Yue didn't know if this room had been lived by Empress Mu back then, but she was also very curious.

Crossing the half-high threshold, Xiao Yue entered the guest room, the layout of this room is not at all inn-style, but like his own home, the entrance is the entrance hall, the left side of the entrance hall is the study, the right is the bedroom, and the bedroom is also connected to the clean room.

The backyard is close to the river, it is very convenient to get water, and Xiaoyue also saw that there is a water diversion set made of bamboo pipes, which can be washed and bathed directly in the clean room.

"Aren't there many guests here?" Xiao Yue finished reading downstairs, and then ran upstairs to take a look.
