Chapter 781: Strange Woman
Although the decoration of Moling Inn is a little simple, it is very clean, and the overall look is good, giving people a kind of warmth of home.
The inn was empty, only an old man sitting behind the counter was reading a book, and when he saw Zhou Sen and Lu Axe walking in, he immediately got up to greet him.
"Axe, what are you doing here on the first day of the new year...... Hey, who is this little brother? Something familiar! The old man wore reading glasses and looked Zhou Sen up and down.
"Uncle Shen, he is Zhou Sen. Zhou Sen, this is Uncle Shen! ”
"Uncle Shen." Zhou Sen bowed politely. From the surname of this old man, it is known that he should be an immediate family member of the Shen family.
"Ah...... It's Xiao Zhou, it's Xiao Zhou...... Sit-...... This time, our Shen family is thanks to you...... Come on...... I'll pour you tea...... Dog eggs, dog eggs, get up, hurry, don't sleep, there is a distinguished guest coming, quickly get the tea eggs, and be quick with your hands and feet......"
The old man yelled a few times at the inside, and immediately, he heard a "crackling" sound of getting up with a large range of movements, and then, he saw a little guy rushing out with his pants, nodding to the old man, and after asking for a red envelope, he rushed into the kitchen again.
"On the first day of the new year, take it."
Uncle Shen took out two red envelopes from his pocket and handed them to Zhou Sen and Lu Axe, Zhou Sen and Lu Axe were not polite, took the red envelope and stuffed it into their pockets. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and taking a red envelope is a matter of course, and it will never be condemned by conscience.
Uncle Shen was very enthusiastic about Zhou Sen, and brought the two of them to the table to ask for warmth, and after a long talk, the little guy called Dog Egg came over with four bowls of tea and eggs, and after distributing a bowl to each person, he didn't speak, and gobbled it up by himself.
"Did the lord and the lady go to the East Compound?" After some politeness, Uncle Shen asked.
“…… Not. Lu Axe swallowed two tea eggs in succession, speechless, and shook his head.
"Hey...... At this time in previous years, the Shen family had already sent someone to send red envelopes, and it seemed that the lord and the lady were really tired and forgot such an important matter. Uncle Shen took a sip of tea and sighed.
"Yes." Zhou Sen nodded perfunctorily.
"By the way, what are you doing so early?" Uncle Shen asked.
"I ...... I ......" Lu Axe's face turned red, but he couldn't speak, and looked at Zhou Sen with a pleading expression.
"Do all the girls in the bridge house live here?" Zhou Sen asked directly.
"Yes, I don't know who you're looking for?" Uncle Shen pushed his glasses, and there was a look of ambiguity and understanding on his face.
"Axes?"
"I'm looking for ...... Look for...... Looking for lotus ......."
"Hexiang, she and Miaolan live in the same room, in room 307, at this time, I'm afraid I haven't gotten up yet, well, let's do it, you send red eggs, everyone will be on the first day of junior high school today, they will please a good fortune, and they will open the door." Uncle Shen pondered for a while and came up with an idea.
"Thank you, Uncle Shen."
"Dog eggs, prepare more tea eggs, go and send them to the girls, and ask for some red envelopes. 307 If you want to let the axe and Xiao Zhou send it, huh...... Xiao Zhou, room 305 is empty, this is the key. Miaolan is very good, young man, strong in blood...... Hehe......" Uncle Shen recently appeared with a lewd smile that did not match his age, and said meaningfully.
"Thank you, Uncle Shen." Zhou Sen inexplicably felt more intimate with this obscene old man.
After the three of them chatted for a while, the little guy sent two steaming tea eggs, and Zhou Sen and Lu Axe each picked up the tea eggs and went to the third floor, to the front of room 307.
Zhou Sen...... We...... Let's go back......" Standing at the door of 307, Guo Axe was weak and retreated.
"With me here, what are you afraid of?" Zhou Sen cheered for Lu Axe.
"I ......"
"Don't go in yet, wait for me to take that Miaolan away, and it's not too late for you to go in again."
"Hmm."
"Knock knock......" A rhythmic knock sounded on the door.
"Who?" A faint sound rang out inside.
"Deliver tea eggs."
"Oh...... You wait......"
Then, there was a sound of rustling and dressing, and after a few minutes, the door opened a crack, revealing only one head of a handsome girl.
"Give it to me." The girl didn't look at Zhou Sen, and directly put a red envelope on the tray in Zhou Sen's hand, but her eyes were out of the corner of her eyes and found that there was another person behind Zhou Sen, and she was stunned at first, "You wait first, I'll seal a red envelope for you...... Hey, what are you doing here? ”
The girl who was just about to turn around and seal the red envelope saw Zhou Sen actually take a step forward and squeeze half of her body into the room, and suddenly looked stunned.
"I want to see Miss Lotus."
"She hasn't gotten up yet."
"I'll wait for her."
"Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, early in the morning, what are you doing?!" The delicate-looking Miaolan girl was angry.
"Miaolan, what's wrong?" Inside the room, a faint voice sounded.
"Someone is looking for you."
"Hmm...... I'm going to sleep......"
"Well, you go back to sleep...... It's okay......"
"I'll just say a few words to her."
"No way!" Miao Lan cut the railway.
"If you don't let me say that, I'm not leaving." Zhou Sen said lightly. At this time, Lu Axe stood behind him with a cramped face, rubbing his hands together.
"You...... Get out, you go out...... Get out...... Get me out......" Miao Lan grabbed Zhou Sen's body with both hands and tried to push Zhou Sen out, but unfortunately, Zhou Sen's body was like a mountain, and he didn't move at all.
"Give me five minutes." Zhou Sen looked at Miaolan lightly, at this time, he realized that this girl was actually very beautiful, and without makeup, she was still exciting, especially when she was angry, frowning and pouting, it was even more different.
"It's true that we are prostitutes, but we are also human beings, and we also have dignity!" Miao Lan seemed to be afraid of waking up Hexiang, lowered her voice, and looked at Zhou Sen with a solemn expression.
"I know, but, no matter what, my friend will see Hexiang today." Zhou Sen paused word by word, and his expression was equally serious.
"Aren't you looking for Hexiang?" Miao Lan was stunned.
"My friend." Zhou Sen replied in the affirmative.
"Okay, you go out first, we'll have to clean up."
"Well, five minutes."
"Hmm."
Zhou Sen retreated, and the door closed.
"Let's go." As soon as the door closed, Miao Lan immediately said triumphantly.
"I'll wait for you for five minutes, because I respect you before I come out." Zhou Sen said lightly.
"......" there was silence in the room, "Okay, let's talk about it first, don't be rude, you have to convince Hexiang yourself." ”
"Hmm."
"Zhou Sen, let's go...... Maybe...... Maybe...... Miss Hexiang has forgotten me for a long time......" Lu Axe looked nervous.
"We have the money." Zhou Sen smiled faintly and patted the purse in his arms.
"Oh......"
Five minutes later, the door opened a crack, Miaolan poked out a head, glanced at Zhou Sen, and then at Lu Axe, and said, "Okay, don't be rough." ”
"Hmm."
"Come in."
Miao Lan let Zhou Sen in and immediately closed the door.
The guest room is not very large, at the table, there is a girl sitting at the end looking out the window, from the back, the long green silk is like a waterfall, there is a feeling of quiet and weak.
"Hello." Hexiang turned around and looked Zhou Sen up and down.
"I have a friend who has been in a bad mood lately, and I want you to be able to accompany him." Zhou Sen got straight to the point. Although this girl is not as beautiful as a fairy, she is also dignified and beautiful, and there is a trace of calmness rarely seen in the countryside between her eyebrows.
Lu Axe's vision is not bad.
"Three thousand Imperial Coins." Hexiang said lightly.
"Deal." Zhou Sen took out his wallet and counted out three thousand imperial coins and put them on the table.
"......" on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Hexiang didn't want to pick up customers at all, seeing Zhou Sen wearing workers' clothes, he deliberately doubled the price, hoping that Zhou Sen would be able to retreat in spite of the difficulties, but he didn't think that Zhou Sen didn't want to, so he put the money on the table directly.
Hexiang looked at Miaolan for help, and secretly regretted it in her heart. She saw that Zhou Sen's wallet had become shriveled, and she knew that if she shouted more, the other party would have no money.
Miao Lan shrugged her shoulders and made a helpless expression. She had promised Zhou Sen, so naturally it was not good to interfere in front of her.
"Okay." Hexiang nodded helplessly.
"Axe, come in." Zhou Sen shouted outside the door.
"Oh......" Axe lowered his head and pushed the door in.
"Axe...... It's you! Hexiang stood up suddenly.
"Yes...... Be...... It's me ......" The axe didn't dare to look into Hexiang's eyes, and Ai Ai said.
"Why are you here?" Hexiang's face is not good.
"I ...... I don't have any money......"
"Looks like you're getting rich now!" Hexiang is coldly sarcastic.
"I didn't ...... Not...... That's Zhou Sen's money......" Lu Axe glanced at the money on the table, shaking it like a rattle.
"Take the money away, I don't want to see you." Hexiang glared at Lu Axe.
"......" Lu Axe stopped talking, blushed, walked to the table, put away the imperial coins on the table and walked out.
"You, you ......" Seeing that Lu Axe didn't say a word, he actually took the money and left, and suddenly sat on the chair with a dejected face.
"Fool, you're really gone!"
Miaolan and Hexiang get along day and night, where can they not see Hexiang's thoughts, immediately grabbed Lu Axe, pushed Lu Axe in front of Hexiang, and then pulled Zhou Sen out of the door, and closed the door by the way.
"You friend, you're stupid enough!" Miao Lan had an expression of hatred on her face.
Zhou Sen glanced at the hidden door, he had a very strange feeling, he found that Na Hexiang seemed to really like Lu Axe, which is extremely rare in the land of wind and moon, after all, Lu Axe is poor and white, and people are still a little straightforward, and they don't like women.
Of course, the Wind Dust Woman will also have a long-term relationship with the guest, but, according to the axe, he and Hexiang are only one side.
Zhou Sen, who has gone through vicissitudes, will not believe in love at first sight.
"Let's go to room 305." Zhou Sen was stunned for a few seconds, and then raised the key in his hand towards Miaolan.
"Do you still have any money on you?" Miaolan had a hint of mockery on her face.
"I don't mind if you're willing to stay here and blow the wind."
Zhou Sen said lightly, walked straight to room 305, opened the door and walked in. Miao Lan was stunned in the deserted corridor for a few seconds, and followed Zhou Sen into the room.
"Knock knock ......"
As soon as the two entered the room, there was a knock on the door, and when they opened the door, they saw that it was the little guy named Dogan carrying a heavy charcoal stove, and the charcoal stove was burning with red charcoal fire. Goudan put the charcoal fire away, laughed a few times at Zhou Sen's ambiguous "hehe", turned around and closed the door and went out.
The two of them sat down in front of the charcoal stove and did not speak, and there was silence in the room.
It was a long silence.
Miao Lan thought that this young man would take advantage of him, but she didn't expect that the other party didn't say a word at all, and she didn't even move her eyelids, which made the vicious and mean language that she had prepared a long time ago nowhere to vent, and it was very uncomfortable.
Suddenly, Miao Lan remembered something.
The Lu axe of Namu said that this young man's name is Zhou Sen.
Zhou Sen.
Zhou Sen.
What a familiar name......
Zhou Sen, the Zhou Sen of the Shen family!
Miaolan's delicate body was shocked, and she looked at the taciturn young man in front of her with a surprised face, she never dreamed that this young man was Zhou Sen, who was in the limelight for a while.
"Are you Zhou Sen of the Shen family?" Miao Lan couldn't help but have a strong curiosity after all, and asked.
"You know me?" Zhou Sen raised his head and looked at the lovely woman in front of him with a frown.
"In Nie Jiaqiao, if anyone doesn't know Zhou Sen, they will definitely be laughed at." Miao Lan felt her heart pounding. When a man has a certain kind of aura, he will always exude a fascinating charm.
"You all know me?"
Zhou Sen's heart sank inexplicably. If it is forgivable that Uncle Shen of the Moling Inn knows him, then a woman in a green house has heard of him, which is not good news for Zhou Sen, who is bent on hiding his identity.
"I know that you drove away those mobs, and you are the hero of Nie Jiaqiao." Miao Lan's voice was a little excited, she didn't expect to be able to meet the legendary character so soon.
"Thank you."
Zhou Sen looked at the ice picks hanging from the eaves outside the window, a little absent-minded. Miao Lan ushered in the send-off on the Fengyue Field, how smart she was, she immediately felt Zhou Sen's indifference that rejected people thousands of miles away, and she didn't make a sound, and the room fell into silence again.
"I'm going to get something." Miao Lan suddenly got up.
"Whatever you want." Zhou Sen nodded.
Miao Lan bowed to Zhou Sen and walked out of the room, Zhou Sen heard her knocking on 307's room, and then, there was a sound of thin footsteps.
Miaolan, who came back, was holding a guzheng in her hand.
"How's it going over there?" Zhou Sen couldn't help but ask.
"What do you think of them?" Miao Lan looked at Zhou Sen with a strange look and asked rhetorically, "Do you think that if you help your friends pay for it, they must go to bed?" Otherwise, it will be a loss? ”
“……”
"I know, you must think, can a prostitute have feelings too? Aren't prostitutes just for money? Prostitutes, as long as they have money, from princes and princes to peddlers and pawns, anyone can go to bed. ”
"I didn't say it."
"You didn't say it, but you thought it this way, when a big man knocked on the room of two big girls in the early morning of the first day of the new year, and then tried to go in unreasonably, you already thought like this. When you put three thousand Imperial Coins on the table, you have put your inner thoughts into action. ”
"......" Zhou Sen didn't argue, this kind of argument didn't make any sense, not to mention, this woman said what he was thinking.
"Needless to explain, we are a lowly people, we sometimes look down on ourselves, let alone let others respect us. Today, you are my guest, and you are the hero of our Nie Jiaqiao, presumably you will not be uncommon for the little woman to be in this willow posture, and the little woman will not recommend herself to the pillow. However, in order to thank you for saving the lives of Nie Jiaqiao and some of our sisters, the little girl is willing to play a song for you. ”
Miao Lan didn't wait for Zhou Sen to speak, walked to the table, put the guzheng flat, reached out a pair of slender jade hands, and gently flicked on the guzheng, and immediately, a beautiful sound like a mountain stream flowing in the room.
The uplifting melody of the piece transports Zhou Sen into a chivalrous world full of adventure.
As the main technique, Miaolan's finger shaking runs through the whole song in one go, adding a little tenderness to the music, which makes people can't help but think of the love affair between heroes and beauties.
Finally, the blood-boiling piano sound stopped, and Zhou Sen's body seemed to have a fierce beast struggling wildly, as if it might break out at any time.
Zhou Sen lost his mind for a while.
The song "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has been popular in the Han Empire for decades, and it is not the first time Zhou Sen has heard it, but he has never had the feeling of blood rushing now.
When Zhou Sen woke up from the aftertaste, Miaolan had already left, leaving only the guqin lying there quietly, which was inexplicably sad.
Sure enough, there are strange women in the dust!
Zhou Sen let out a long sigh.
About ten minutes after Miao Lan left, Lu Axe walked in with a serious expression.
"Let's go." Lu Axe gestured to Zhou Sen, turned around and walked out.
"How does it feel?" Zhou Sen sensed that something was wrong with Lu Axe, and asked pretending to be relaxed.
"Hmm."
Lu Axe just nodded noncommittally and strode away.
After the two went downstairs, they said hello to Uncle Shen and left in a hurry, along the way, Zhou Sen asked a few words on the side, and Lu Axe just nodded and replied with "uh-huh" from beginning to end, and did not speak.
Zhou Sen realized that Lu Axe had a very heavy heart, because his expression was too serious, even when his fiancée was killed by the mob a few days ago, Lu Axe had never been so cold, this kind of coldness was completely different from the loss of his fiancée's death.
Zhou Sen had no other way.
Although Zhou Sen has only been with Lu Axe for three months, he understands Lu Axe's character, if he doesn't want to say it, no one can force him to say that there is an incredible persistence in this strong and wooden man.
The two returned to the Shen Jiadong compound and did not say anything for a day.
Most of the time, Lu Axe bowed his head in contemplation, and occasionally stood up and walked around, with an anxious look on his face.
In the evening, Lu Axe went out for a trip, came back to the East Compound, and went to the West Courtyard again, and it was dark when he returned to the East Compound.
"Zhou Sen, this is the money I owe you." Lu Axe took out a large pile of imperial coins from his pocket, at least tens of thousands.
"What are you doing here?" Zhou Sen looked at the Lu axe of ten imperial coins, frowned and asked.
"I'm leaving." Lu Axe looked at Zhou Sen.
"Where to go?" Zhou Sen's body was shocked, he knew that Lu Axe had made up his mind, and he could feel his determination from the time he went to the West Courtyard to settle his wages for several years.
