Qin Nian'an and the three of them followed Meng Nanpu's footsteps, walked out of Tianji City, and walked towards the outskirts of Tianji City.

Meng Nanpu walked in front, and Qin Nian'an and the three followed, during which Xu Ziyue asked Meng seniors many times where he wanted to take them, but he didn't get a response.

The little fat man was no longer bored with himself and kept silent.

In the face of a long journey, Gu Qingyue couldn't bear the loneliness, and from time to time she played and made trouble, and her temperament was very jumpy.

Qin Nianan didn't take the initiative to speak, but he wouldn't deliberately avoid Gu Qingyue's words.

Meng Nanpu just walked by himself, his expression was not serious, but a relaxed attitude, like walking on the way home.

Qin Nian'an didn't know how long he had been walking, and finally waited for Meng Nanpu's footsteps to stop.

Qin Nian'an had always been very curious about where Senior Meng wanted to take them, and his attention was naturally very concentrated, and the moment his footsteps stopped, Qin Nian'an noticed a house not far ahead.

Qin Nian'an was puzzled: "There are people living in this kind of uninhabited place?" Isn't Mo a master who lives in seclusion? ”

Saying that, Qin Nian'an looked at Meng Nanpu again, and asked tentatively, "Senior Meng, is this your residence?" ”

From the moment he walked out of Tianji City, this was the first time Meng Nanpu spoke, "It's not a residence, it's an inn." ”

"The inn?"

Qin Nian'an couldn't understand why he would build an inn here, this didn't seem like a place where someone would come at all, could it be that someone would come here for this inn?

Meng Nanpu could see Qin Nian'an's doubts, but he didn't go to solve his doubts, but continued to walk in the direction where the inn was located.

Qin Nianan didn't get an answer, didn't ask too much, and continued to follow Meng Nanpu's footsteps.

The true face of the inn gradually appeared in front of Qin Nian'an's eyes, and a simple and quiet taste rushed to his face.

The inn is carved with traces of time, and an inn stands alone, with no other buildings around it, giving people a sense of loneliness and melancholy.

Its exterior walls are painted beige, with a circle of gray-white glazed tiles underneath, a few slender wooden pillars supporting a hanging cornice, and a few small wood carvings on the top of a narrow eaves, and a few traces of chrysanthemums on the forehead, which is particularly delicate.

Qin Nian'an was very curious about this inn, and no longer followed Meng Nanpu's steps, but walked straight to the door of the inn, the bluestone steps in front of the door had been ground a little uneven, not at all like an inaccessible place.

A pair of thick and wide copper rings hung on the door, and the door leaf and door frame were of noble mahogany, screwed together by iron nails, giving off a rich woody fragrance.

Qin Nian'an raised his head and saw a simple wooden signboard hanging on the lintel of the inn, with the four big characters "melancholy in the world" written on it, the ink was mottled, and a deep sense of loneliness poured into his heart.

"Two taels of silver, two taels of wine?"

Gu Qingyue also walked behind Qin Nian'an at this time, not knowing what she was talking about.

Qin Nian'an followed Gu Qingyue's gaze and found that the "two taels of silver, two taels of wine" that Gu Qingyue was talking about was the couplet posted next to the door of the inn, and this couplet once again aroused Qin Nian'an's curiosity.

He turned his head to look at the other side of the door, and whispered along, "Two two gentle, two two sorrowful." ”

Qin Nian'an couldn't tell what the flavor of this couplet was, but he felt that it was a bit mysterious, and there seemed to be a wonderful deep meaning hidden in it.

Before he had time to experience it in detail, Meng Nanpu stepped forward and opened the door of the inn, and the inside of the inn was the same as the outside of the inn, shrouded in a simple and quiet atmosphere, and the friction sound of the copper ring at the door was as if it was generated from the battlefield where swords collided, which was particularly harsh.

Following Meng Nanpu into the inn, Qin Nian'an's eyes were instantly attracted by the decoration inside, and they all looked up at the room surrounded by tattered wood carvings and calligraphy and painting decorations.

The first feeling for Qin Nian'an and the three of them was that it was rotten, it couldn't be rotten anymore, would anyone really like this kind of inn?

Xu Ziyue squeaked and wanted to ask, but he was worried that he would be ignored by Meng Nanpu again, wouldn't that be very faceless?

In the end, Gu Qingyue, who still had no scruples, opened her mouth and asked, "Grandpa Meng, is the decoration here a little too bad?" Doesn't that affect the mood of the guests? ”

Meng Nanpu said with a smile: "The guests who can come here to drink, no one will care about this, what they think in their hearts, this inn is what it is." ”

Gu Qingyue didn't understand, she shook her head suspiciously and looked at Qin Nian'an, Qin Nian'an couldn't understand what Senior Meng wanted to express, so she could only shake her head helplessly.

When Gu Qingyue turned her gaze back to Meng Nanpu, she saw Meng Nanpu stretch her waist, turned her head and walked towards the second floor, and suddenly turned around again halfway through, "You help me take a look at the inn, I want to rest for a while now." ”

Meng Nanpu didn't care whether Qin Nianan and the three of them agreed, and walked directly to the second floor after speaking, and his figure gradually disappeared from the sight of the three of them.

Qin Nianan didn't expect Meng Nanpu to throw such a stall at them, how should they be good, they can't just run away, right?

The three of them exchanged glances with each other, but none of them spoke, Qin Nianan sullenly found a table and sat down, accepting this less-than-ideal reality.

Xu Ziyue and Gu Qingyue were also on the left and right, sitting on both sides of Qin Nian'an.

Gu Qingyue's face was a little blushing, and she seemed to say something to Qin Nian'an, but her voice was too quiet, and Qin Nian'an didn't hear it clearly.

Gu Qingyue pulled the corner of Qin Nian'an's clothes, and he immediately turned his head and looked at Gu Qingyue.

She muttered quietly, "I ...... I am hungry. ”

Qin Nian'an then remembered that she had only eaten a little bit in the restaurant in Tianji City since she ran out of the house.

Qin Nian'an smiled apologetically at Gu Qingyue, "I'll go find out where the food in the inn is." ”

So saying, he stood up and prepared to go to the back of the inn to see where the food was kept.

He was just about to leave, but found that the corner of his clothes was pulled again, and he turned back in confusion and saw the same hand that had held the corner of his clothes before.

Gu Qingyue hurriedly let go of her hand, stuck out her tongue mischievously at him, and looked at him with a smile, without the slightest shyness from before.

Qin Nian'an understood this little girl's mind very well, so she didn't stay any longer, and set off again towards her previous destination.

Gu Qingyue sat on the chair, shaking her legs happily, not caring about her image at all.

Xu Ziyue looked at her puzzled, he didn't know what happened to make this girl so excited, and just wanted to ask, but was stared back by Gu Qingyue's pretended fierce look.

Gu Qingyue waited for a while, but she still didn't wait for Qin Nian'an to come back, she didn't know how many times she looked back, but she still couldn't see him.

She couldn't sit still, stood up and walked straight to the place where Qin Nian'an had gone before.

Xu Ziyue didn't know what was going on with the girl who was still happy just now, so he suddenly stood up and left, and he also stood up in a hurry, trying to keep up with her.

Gu Qingyue walked briskly, but the little fat man couldn't keep up with her pace, so he could only trot and follow.

It didn't take long for Gu Qingyue to walk to the door behind the inn, and without the slightest hesitation, she suddenly pushed the door open.

happened to be opposite to Qin Nian'an, who was holding a plate in his hand, Qin Nian'an was just about to open the door when he saw the poor Gu Qingyue, originally he thought she was hungry and couldn't wait, so he looked for it himself.

When he noticed the condensed water droplets in the corners of Gu Qingyue's eyes, he instantly dispelled his previous thoughts, and asked Xu Ziyue, who had just arrived, "Little fat man, what good things have you done?" Let my sister Qingyue be sad like this? ”

Xu Ziyue was speechless when questioned, he just wanted to ask her why she was so happy, and she didn't ask later, why did it suddenly become like this, what went wrong?

My Qingyue sister?

Gu Qingyue didn't care about tears at this time, but she didn't speak, just stared at Qin Nian'an angrily.

Qin Nian'an saw that Gu Qingyue's posture was obviously coming at him, and he already knew it in his heart, wiped the tears in his eyes for Gu Qingyue, and pretended to say: "What can you tell your big brother, what did this little fat man do, I will definitely help you teach him a good lesson." ”

Gu Qingyue ignored Qin Nian'an's words, "Why haven't you come back for so long?" ”

Gu Qingyue's question was indeed as Qin Nian'an expected, he replied truthfully: "This broken inn is really too cold, in addition to wine or wine, I searched for a long time to find so much food." ”

Qin Nianan said and pointed to the plate in his hand, Gu Qingyue only now realized that she was a little out of shape, and stood there embarrassed, not knowing what to do.

Qin Nianan took the opportunity to hand her the plate, "You take this plate back first, and I'll help you teach this little fat man a good lesson." ”

Gu Qingyue nodded slightly, took the plate and turned around directly, and walked back to the original position, not daring to look back on the way.

Xu Ziyue noticed Qin Nian'an's gaze, and his body couldn't help but tremble and said, "Brother Dong, you're wronged!" I really didn't do anything! ”

"It's okay, I understand."

Qin Nianan looked at him meaningfully, "Do you think I look like someone who doesn't believe in my brother?" ”

Xu Ziyue nodded subconsciously, suddenly felt a cold body, and hurriedly shook his fat little head.

The little fat man looked at Brother Dong's softened eyes, and finally let go of his hanging heart, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Without waiting for Xu Ziyue to let go of that breath, Qin Nianan said again: "But I have already promised Sister Qingyue to teach you a good lesson." ”

Xu Ziyue's hanging heart was brought back again, crying with a sad face, "Brother Dong, the first time I saw you, I thought you were a righteous person, you can't destroy the relationship between our brothers because of a woman!" ”
