C40 (1/2)

That night, the Xiaowan made a wish with her Jade Ring. She wanted to ask the heavens what the two guests were like, but in the end she fell asleep and woke up with a blank mind. She could not remember if the heavens had told her or not.

Therefore, he thought to himself, although Jade Ring were intelligent, they could not be used to do unreliable things.

Oh right, there was one more thing that Ling Chaofeng had said they had met before, it was at the riverside outside the Qingling Village. But no matter what, the Xiaowan couldn't remember it.

Today, during the day, Lord Tang and Ling Chaofeng still brought the two of them out for a walk. Xiaowan did not follow them, and when they returned in the evening, the Madam actually gave them a present. The female servants chatted and laughed together, but no deep hatred could be seen.

On the morning of the third day, Lord Tang and his friends were about to leave. Xiaowan did not send them off, but instead followed Ling Chaofeng to the edge of the wharf.

Xiaowan and Ershan watched as Uncle Biao wandered to the front of the tavern from time to time. He even clenched his fists, a tall and big man covered in an uneasy aura.

”Ershan, is the Lord Tang a big official?” Xiaowan could not help but ask Ershan out of curiosity.

”Lord Tang is a first rank official.” Ershan explained, ”Other than the royalty, the strongest official in the imperial court.”

The Xiaowan was even more curious, ”Such a big official, why is he in contact with us? Furthermore, when we were outside, they did not even bring a follower. Lord Sun had followed a large group of imperial guards and maids on this trip. ”

Ershan laughed: ”Why don't you ask the shopkeeper? Actually, I don't know much, and I don't want to talk about what I know.”

The Xiaowan sighed and said, ”You guys know everything. Only I don't know anything.”

When Uncle Biao entered the room, he heard these words and comforted her, ”A muddleheaded person has luck. Evening, people know everything in their life. If you live, you'll be tired.”

Uncle Biao immediately ran out, and Xiaowan and Ershan followed. Seeing that it was their own carriage, Ershan went forward to lead it.

When the wheels stopped, Aunt Zhang revealed her head and ran to the front of the carriage to carry her.

When Aunt Zhang saw the man looking at her so emotionally, as if he was afraid that she would leave and not return, his eyes became hot as he scolded, ”Idiot, why aren't you letting go?”

Ershan laughed from the side: ”Uncle, carry my wife in. We'll cover our eyes.”

Aunt Zhang opened her eyes wide and rolled up her sleeves: ”Brat, your skin is itchy isn't it?”

They were playing around when Ling Chaofeng walked over to say to his wife: ”Late at night, go back to your room, I have something to tell you.”

Xiaowan originally thought that no one would explain the relationship between Lord Tang and the inn to her, but unexpectedly, her husband still told her.

Unlike the Lord Sun he met when he was in a daze, this Lord Tang of the first rank had been fated to be an inn since the previous generation. Back in the generation of the Xiaowan's father and mother-in-law, the Lord Tang relied on the inn to connect to the martial arts world. In the generation of the Xiaowan's father and mother-in-law, the Lord Tang relied on the inn to connect to the martial arts world.

In truth, Ershan and the Aunt Zhang were also not clear about this. Ling Chaofeng then said to the Xiaowan: ”Go to the town and meet Susu and the others, don't just mention that the shop has entertained any guests. This is a form of respect to customers, it is also the rule of the inn.”

Xiaowan nodded her head again and again. She promised her husband that she wouldn't casually mention the inn to anyone else.

Now that she had heard the story, her heart was at ease. She was not stupid. If she thought about it, a person who could cause even a top official to be so respectful, could it be a prince or an emperor? Of course, she didn't dare to believe that the one who came was the empress. How could the empress of the emperor run out of the palace so easily?

Not to mention that after the Heavy Sun Festival, after a few autumn rains, the weather had turned cold. The Ling Xiao Inn was originally located in the wilderness, and under the autumn colors, the scenery was even more desolate.

Seeing the trees behind the front gate wilting and turning into a grey field, with the strong wind blowing the dried leaves into the air, even Xiaowan herself felt that if she were to meet such a shop outside, she would not have the guts to knock on the door and live there.

On this day, there was no business in the shop, Xiaowan followed Ling Chaofeng to read the [Thousand Character Classic], the cool autumn wind blew in, bringing with it a burst of fragrance. Before long, a beautiful young lady appeared in front of the door, and said joyously, ”Xiaowan, I've come to see you.”

The one who came was Susu, she was no longer that frail and pitiful looking person she was before. Her clothes were clean and clean, her hair tied into a bun, and a jade hairpin. She moved to the side and smiled, ”Our young mistress is here as well.”

Yue Huaiyin leisurely walked over. The sky had turned cold, and her silk dress had become green and tender, a color that didn't match with the season and was exceptionally eye-catching. But on her body, it just so happened that it was just right.

The beautiful lady came over and started to smell the fragrance step by step. Xiaowan asked: ”Miss Yue, what type of powder did you use? Why do you smell so nice?”

Huai Yin replied: ”My newest powder, when you say it tastes good, I'll be relieved. If you want to go out with Susu for a few days, you should go to the dock to wait for the boat.

Susu put down her backpack and took out an exquisite box to place on the table. Xiaowan touched it and laughed: I do not need powder.

Ling Chaofeng said from the side: ”Miss Yue, all of you chat slowly.”

The man seemed to be unwilling to participate in the women's gossip and directly went upstairs. Yue Huaiyin's gaze followed his retreating back, but since this was someone else's house, she didn't dare look too closely at it.

Even if Xiaowan saw him, he did not think too much about it. Instead, he said, ”Miss Yue, do you want me to show you our inn?”

Huaiyin tactfully declined, ”It's not good to be in a hurry to reach the dock and miss the boat.”

Glancing at the table, he saw that there was a book on the table, and on it was written, ”One must not forget to change what one knows.” ”Talk is short, talk is long …” It was' Thousand Words'. It was a child's book.

She asked, ”Who's studying?”
