Chapter 36: Zi'er
Hearing this rough man say this, several people were noncommittal.
Generally, such a crazy person, if it is not a lack of tendons in the brain, then he really has this strength.
Although several people were suspicious, they would not refute him on the spot.
After returning to the inn again, several people sat in the hall on the first floor and got to know each other.
The rough man's name is Li Tieniu, according to him, he is a ranger, and his favorite thing to do on weekdays is to wander the rivers and lakes and act chivalrous.
And the middle-aged man dressed as a businessman is the manager of Dajin Trading Bank, named Jin Fugui. This time I was returning to my hometown and passing through here.
Next are the two men and women in white, the male is called Feng Yichen, and the female is called Mo Xiaoxiao, both of whom are from a small sect, and they are brothers and sisters.
In the end, it was Lin Yan's turn, and everyone was also very curious, after all, such a young child dared to go out alone to explore the rivers and lakes, I have to say that it is very good! Really cow!
In the doubtful, scrutinizing, and playful eyes of several people, Lin Yan's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he said unhurriedly that he was going out to experience and went to relatives in the south by the way.
In fact, not to mention that he has no relatives, he has not even found his parents, and this is the first time he has been here.
But that doesn't mean he's lying, because half of it is true, and sometimes it's more convincing.
Although a few people felt that he must rely on a child who dared to go on the road alone, they were not too relieved to go, after all, how much of a threat can a child have?
They only thought he was ignorant and fearless, and ran out with the courage of a newborn calf, and it was estimated that it was true that he had defected to his relatives. What kind of experienced words, just listen to it, don't take it seriously.
Jin Fugui smiled and exclaimed: "Little brother Lin Yan is really a young hero!"
Lin Yan smiled shyly when he heard this, how innocent and innocent that smile was, if he let Qiu Lao and the little donkey see it, he would definitely despise him fiercely.
This guy is pretending to be pure again!
Feng Yichen smiled kindly.
And Mo Xiaoxiao glanced at him and muttered in a low voice: "I don't believe it!"
Li Tieniu didn't have any special reaction, staring at Lin Yan up and down, as if he was quite interested in him, which made Lin Yan furious.
There was a general understanding between the few people, and the next thing was to discuss a solution to this sudden incident.
"What else is being discussed? This shopkeeper Song still has half a month's rent in my hand, who is he looking for if he runs away? Li Tieniu was the first to speak.
"I was captured!" Lin Yan on the side reminded.
"Hey! It's all the same. Can't let him go anyway. Li Tieniu continued.
"The problem is that he is now in the hands of that immortal master, and I heard that he will be executed immediately, how can this be done?" Jin Fugui said helplessly.
"It's true, I guess those guys aren't good characters." Feng Yichen said lightly.
"I've long seen that the shopkeeper is wrong, I don't think either side is a good person, huh!" Mo Xiaoxiao turned his head and pouted.
"Senior sister, at least the food served by the shopkeeper is still good these days." Feng Yichen turned his head and said.
Mo Xiaoxiao ignored him, and Feng Yichen could only shake his head helplessly, his junior sister is good, but she has been spoiled since she was a child, and she has always done her own thing.
Lin Yan on the side also lowered his head when he heard this, and he couldn't hold back his laughter, thinking: I really served you well, and I was full of sweat and medicine!
A few people are discussing word by word, but there is no result for the time being.
At this time, Jin Fugui suddenly said: "I heard that Shopkeeper Song also has a daughter, we might as well ask her, maybe we can know something."
When the rest of the people heard it, they really made some sense.
However, a few people downstairs have been looking for it before, but no one is there. Immediately, several people moved their eyes upstairs, since they were not below, they could only be upstairs.
It is said that this shopkeeper Song is extremely precious to his daughter, and the latter is seriously ill, so in order to facilitate the care, he must not be too far away from her, and it is very likely that his daughter is in this inn.
The inn was not large, and several people went over to look for it from room to room, and soon found a sleeping girl in a corner room.
The girl lying on the bed looked like she was about five or six years old, a little younger than Lin Yanlai. She had long black hair, and her curved eyebrows hung on her face like crescent moons.
At this time, her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and a faint worry swept out of his delicate little face, which made her already beautiful cheeks even more pity.
It's just that the face is slightly pale, which may be caused by a long illness.
Looking at this little girl's appearance, her mother must have been a rare beauty before.
And at this moment, a few people looked at her, originally wanting to find her to understand the situation, but they couldn't do anything about it, so they couldn't forcibly wake her up!
Whoever does that can be called a beast!
"Okay, okay, what's the matter with you old men all the time in the boudoir of the little girl! Go out first, and I'll come and see, and wake up and call you. Mo Xiaoxiao watched these big and small men staring at a little girl, and he couldn't bear it anymore, and was ready to blast them all out.
When a few big men heard it, it was indeed a little inappropriate, so they planned to go out as they said.
At that moment, a small voice came.
The little girl on the bed woke up with a "bang" sound.
Seeing this, several people immediately gathered around again.
The little girl had just woken up, rubbing her sleepy eyes, and when she opened her eyes, she suddenly saw a group of unknown people gathered in front of her window, and among them was a man who looked fierce and vicious, and his mouth was flattened, and he was about to cry.
Lin Yan's eyes were quick, and he took a step forward to cover her small mouth, and there was a moment of warmth as far as his hand could reach, after all, it was the first time he had come into contact with a girl, and he couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart.
Mo Xiaoxiao glared at him when he saw this, don't you know if men and women are kissed or not? Even if it's a child, you have to pay attention!
Lin Yan smiled wryly, knowing that this move was a bit inappropriate. But in a hurry, if the little girl cries out and is heard by people outside, these strangers really can't eat and leave.
"Don't cry yet, we're not bad people, we're your father's friends. I'll let you go if you're obedient, understand? Lin Yan looked at the little girl and said.
The little girl nodded lightly when she heard this, and Lin Yan let go of her hand when she saw this.
The latter still had tears in the corners of his eyes, looked aggrieved, and asked, "Who are you?" Where's my dad? Father! ”
Feng Yichen on the side explained: "Little girl, don't worry! We're really not bad guys and won't hurt you! ”
The little girl looked at them suspiciously when she heard this, and suddenly stretched out a finger to point at Li Tieniu, saying, "You let him stay away, I'm afraid!"
Li Tieniu stretched out his hand and pointed to his nose in disbelief when he heard this, with an incredulous expression, thinking: I was disgusted by a little girl?
The rest of the people couldn't hold back their laughter, especially Jin Fugui, whose shoulders couldn't stop shaking, and taking care of Li Tieniu's face, he endured it extremely hard.
But in fact, it's normal, this Li Tieniu is five big and three thick, with a black face and a big beard, which little girl can like this?
Li Tieniu retreated stupidly, but he didn't know the same as the little girl.
Mo Xiaoxiao didn't care about this, he laughed wildly.
After laughing for a while, she finally stopped laughing, she sat down on the side of the little girl's bed and asked, "Little girl, what is your name?"
The little girl looked at this big sister, probably feeling that she had no malice, and replied weakly: "My name is Zi'er, Song Zi'er!"
"Oh, Zi'er! What a nice name! Mo smiled and praised.
A group of old and young masters watched this scene, and couldn't help but secretly pick a thumbs up, women are good at communicating with each other.
Before watching it, seeing that these little girls were about to cry, as soon as Mo Xiaoxiao came on the stage, she was coaxed in a few words, and even asked her name, admiration and admiration!
The little girl listened to the compliment, lowered her head shyly, and her fingers unconsciously twisted the corners of her clothes.
Mo Xiaoxiao continued: "Zi'er! Your father is going to travel far away these days, please ask your brother and sister to take care of you! ”
When Song Zi'er heard this, her mood instantly became depressed. Since the mother's death, it is the father and her who depend on each other, the father and daughter have never been separated for a day, how could the father go out without saying hello to him?
Mo Xiaoxiao saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately added: "Don't worry, your father is suddenly in a bit of a hurry, and he will be back as soon as he finishes his work!"
When Song Zi'er heard this, her face was slightly better.
Mo Xiaoxiao reached out and grabbed the little girl's hand, and said with a smile: "Zi'er, you are so worried about your father, it seems that you like him very much?"
Song Zi'er became interested when she heard this, and said happily: "Of course, my father is amazing!" ”
Mo smiled and said, "Oh? Can you talk to my sister? ”
Song Zi'er said proudly: "My father is a big hero!" He used to be a soldier to fight bad guys and protect me and my mother, but it's amazing! ”
Everyone listened quietly, and it seemed that the experience of the shopkeeper Song in the army was confirmed.
But then ...... Afterward...... My mother is gone, and my father and I are left! Song Zi'er bowed her head and said aggrievedly.
"What about your mother?" Feng Yichen on the side asked.
Mo Xiaoxiao turned her head and glared at him, didn't you see the little girl so sad? How can such a question be asked?
Feng Yichen was also a little embarrassed, but he had to ask this question, I heard the vendor say that this shopkeeper Song also had a happy family before, and the sudden change in temperament may be inseparable from his wife.
The truth may be right in front of you!
Song Zi'er paused when she heard this, and said sadly: "My mother's health has always been poor, but then the gods came, and my father begged for the 'fairy medicine'." But...... But my mother is gone......"
After all, it's a five- or six-year-old child, and he's been sick for so long, and his words aren't so coherent.
After a while, Song Zi'er seemed to be tired. With her current physical condition, she is awake for an hour or two a day, and the rest of the time she is asleep.
After chatting with everyone for a while, she couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Sister, I'm sleepy!"
Then he fell into a deep sleep again.
