Chapter 279: A Chance Encounter at the Inn

Shangguan Rou by the window, looking at the night outside, but the city of Suzhou did not calm down at all, but more people, the night of Suzhou at the beginning of the lanterns was like day, the beautiful eyes swept the streets under the city, the hawkers, the young ladies who traveled, all kinds of different colors, suddenly a figure in the crowd made Shangguan Rou stunned, "Murong Qian? Seeing Murong Qian again, Shangguan Rou didn't know what she felt in her heart, and when she saw Murong Qian's side, she didn't know when there was a young woman, dressed in red, and there seemed to be some kind of sadness in her eyebrows, and there was another charm, Shangguan Rou sneered, "Sure enough, it's a rich child, I'm afraid this female companion is more diligent than clothes." I don't know why I saw Murong Qian again now, Shangguan Rou's heart was inexplicably irritable, and she got up and wanted to drop the paper window.

It has been more than ten days since he came to Suzhou City, if he hadn't persuaded his cousin to go to Murong's house that day, I'm afraid that the two of them are still waiting for Xuanyuan Xiang's figure at the Yuanlai Inn, but although Tang Yue'er is in Murong Mansion, Murong Qian can see that Tang Yue'er is not willing to give up every day, and she stays in the stone pavilion in the garden all day long, and she sits for several hours, worrying that Tang Yue'er will hold back some illness, so she insists on pulling her cousin out to visit the night scene of Suzhou today, but Tang Yue'er can't lift her spirits along the way, Murong Qian is thinking about what way to make her cousin laugh, and she feels as if someone is watching her, looking up, I happened to see Shangguan Rou put down the paper window, although he only saw a side face, but that familiar feeling still shocked Murong Qian's heart, "Shangguan... Is it Shangguan Rou?"

Murong Qian's abnormal behavior attracted Tang Yue'er's attention, and she looked in the direction of Murong Qian's daze, only to see a closed paper window, "Cousin Murong, what are you looking at?"

"It's her!" Murong Qian didn't seem to hear Tang Yue'er's words, but the excitement on his face jumped up, and he grabbed Tang Yue'er's hand and ran in the direction of Piaoxiang Restaurant.

Before he could run a few steps, he was freed by Tang Yue'er, and looked at Murong Qian with a somewhat angry face, "Cousin, what are you doing here?"

Under the surprise, even the anger on Tang Yue'er's face was ignored, and when she saw Tang Yue'er stop, she said in a somewhat anxious tone, "Ah, cousin, I saw her, I saw her, they are in this Piaoxiang Restaurant." ”

"What? You... Do you mean you saw Xuanyuan Xiang?" Tang Yue'er's voice trembled a little when she spoke, she never thought that she had been looking for Xuanyuan Xiang, who had not been seen for a long time, would encounter such a chance opportunity, without thinking, Tang Yue'er was about to rush over, but before she could take a few steps, she stopped, turned to Murong Qian, and asked a little anxiously, "Cousin Murong, take a look, is my sideburns messy?" As he spoke, he kept fiddling with the hair on his forehead with both hands.

Murong Qian looked at Tang Yue'er's somewhat anxious appearance, and couldn't help but feel amused, "Cousin, I see that you have never seen you pay so much attention to this dress when you were in Murong Mansion all day, why? After laughing at Tang Yue'er, she knew that Tang Yue'er was anxious, although she had already let go of her love for Shangguan Rou when she was in the Five Poisons Sect, but now if she could see that Shangguan Rou was safe and sound, Murong Qian was still happy in her heart, "Okay, cousin, you are naturally beautiful and look like a fairy, but you don't dress up, and you don't know how many times better than ordinary women, let's hurry over, if it's too late for a while, if Xuanyuan Xiang rests, you won't be able to see him." Murong Qian's words, Tang Yue'er was also in a hurry, she couldn't care about her outfit anymore, took Murong Qian's hand, and trotted all the way to Piaoxiang Restaurant.

Before the two of them entered the store, they heard the shopkeeper's voice come out, "This... Isn't this Murong Gongzi?I don't know which fragrant wind blew you here?" While speaking, the shopkeeper of Piaoxiang Restaurant looked like he had a big belly, and came to Murong Qian's side in a few steps, and when he smiled, the fat on his face seemed to be piled together.

Murong Qian waved his hand and beckoned the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, I have something to ask you, you have to answer truthfully, you can't hide it." As soon as the two entered the restaurant, they looked around, although there were not a few people eating in the restaurant, but there was no Xuanyuan Xiang.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper looked at Murong Qian, who in Suzhou didn't know about Murong Qian, the son of the Murong family in Gusu? In their opinion, this was their God of Wealth, so he was naturally careful to accompany Murong Qian, and said with a smile on his face, "Where does Murong Gongzi say, as long as it is your word, how can the villain not obey? You just told the villain to go east, and the villain would not dare to look west." ”

The shopkeeper said flattering words, and Murong Qian and Tang Yue'er also felt funny, "You shopkeeper, your mouth is really smart, let me ask you, there is a man and a woman in your inn, and the people dressed in the rivers and lakes live? They all carry weapons with them, and they are very recognizable." ”

"This..."To say that there are too many guests coming and going in this inn all day long, and Suzhou is also a very convenient place for water and land transportation, and there are not a few disciples of various factions who come and go all day long, and the shopkeeper is really a little difficult for a while, I don't know who Murong Qian is asking, "Murong Gongzi, although the small shop is not big, there are also many children of the rivers and lakes who come here to live in the store, there are so many people who come and go, how can the villain remember this." ”

"Ha! I didn't say anything about the past, just said that I live in this inn now, but there is?" Murong Qian knew that he was in a hurry just now and didn't ask clearly, so he smiled apologetically and added.

"This..."The shopkeeper thought for a long time, and the guests staying in the store today were indeed not the man and woman that Murong Gongzi had just described, so he looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Murong Qian just saw Shangguan Rou's figure, naturally he knew that Shangguan Rou lived in the store, and wanted to inquire about the guest room, but now seeing the shopkeeper's embarrassed face, he thought he wanted to ask for silver taels, so he took out five taels of silver from his arms and put them in front of the shopkeeper, "How is it?"

Although he saw five taels of silver, the shopkeeper looked at the silver in Murong Qian's hand with some hot eyes, swallowed his saliva, and said with a smile, "Murong Gongzi, although the small one is greedy for silver taels, but I don't dare to accept your silver taels, so you better take it back." ”

"Oh, why is this?" Murong Qian was really a little curious, how could there be a person who didn't love money, he just thought that five taels of silver was too little, and his face became a little unsightly, "I said that you, the shopkeeper, are really insatiable, no! Add ten taels and tell me where they live in that room?" As he spoke, Murong Qian took out another ten taels of silver from his arms and placed it heavily in front of the shopkeeper.
