Chapter 10.2: The town’s zhuang yuan* cannot be at peace

* Ranked first/top scorer in the imperial official examination

Scholar was totally unaware. Twisting the waist and stretching the tendons, he said, “Alright, finished drawing. On regular days would like to draw flowers and gra.s.s. Can considered to be quite useful.”

Shao Zi has finally approve of Scholar. Although she does not know why he bought the inn with what purpose, but he has helped out and does not show any malice. It is because of wanting to guard the inn? Seeing there was a bit of red ink stuck to his face, [she used] her hand raised up to help wipe it for him. The tip of the finger felt the tactile coolness and saw his eyes lowered. It was the face of solemnness and calmness; truly like someone who stepped out from a ink and wash painting. Shao Zi peered intently to the point of becoming distracted. She quickly withdrew her hands, and climbed down the ladder.

She has definitely become haunted by Mara*! Does not understand just now as within a split-second, [she] felt that Scholar was surprisingly like an immortal. Rubbing the nose, there’s nothing. It must be an illusion.

Tong Fu inn was still like before—opened very early. Shao Zi has tossed and turned for more than half a night and cannot sleep. When it was near noon, [she] cooked for Scholar and Dragon G.o.d each a portion of the super special nouris.h.i.+ng tonic soup. Carrying it into Dragon G.o.d’s room, [she] saw his usual calm expression revealed a bit of seeing death as a home of return. Along with Scholar’s expression, it can be considered really similar.

Shao Zi kept on pondering ah, but cannot find an explanation. This soup is very nouris.h.i.+ng for the body, how can it be scorned by others?

She finished was.h.i.+ng the bowl and stepped out from the kitchen to see Scholar was leisurely watering the flowers. One ladle of water by another ladle of water was poured onto the flower basin, watering a portion of the rainbow.

The demons after several days of being trampled has become calm and collected like before and has went from “You arrogant idler, you younger sister’s husband, you wife’s elder sister man” to “Oh, he has come to water again, can shower for free”etc. Shao Zi stood in front of the door while watching him watered the plants. If Scholar wasn’t a simple person, then cannot have the opportunity to persecute them like this. She silently rubbed the stomach. Each time [she] drank the tea he gave, inside stomach would feel strange and spirit was rather refreshed than before. Perhaps it has a mysterious magic?

Was staring to the point of being enthralled and then heard the sounds of people in the lobby. [She] immediately got up to greet the customers.

The people who came were one male and one female. One short and one tall. Even though their faces were not refined, but the skins were extraordinary and using the description of soft like water for ladies was not in the least bit too much.

Shao Zi smiled brightly and invited them to sit as she asked, “Does the two customers want to lodge or rest and snack?”

The two people glanced at one another, “Bring delicious wine and food here. Money is not a problem.” Do not take translations outside bananachocolatecosmos

Shao Zi was extremely happy. She likes generous, straightforward customers the most. She was about to turn around to go down the kitchen, and then the two people asked, “Asking miss. These past few days have you since one male and one female coming across here? The male is injured and the female is a little lady?”

Shao Zi paused for a bit and then smiled, “We opened th

is inn and cannot count the endless number of customers pa.s.sing by. Really does not notice so much. As for lodging here at the inn, there is none to be seen. Perhaps I can go around and asked for a bit?”

The two people still glanced at one another and nodded, “Okay.”

Shao Zi calmly went in the kitchen and heart was about to jump out of chest from the fear. The real appearance of the two cannot be seen. Their cultivation powers are higher than her. Yet, the people clearly being asked about are Dragon G.o.d and Little White Snake. Is it the mermaids? She furrowed brows and leaned in the window to look outward. At this time Scholar has just finished watering the flowers and left. She beckoned with hands, “Xin niang.”

Xin niang was still sinking into the feeling of soaking in hot spring water and then heard. She shouted in response and then regained her mind, “What is it boss?”

Shao Zi breathed in one long sound and said in a low voice, “You go tell the two people in the Tian (character) room to split as someone is looking for them.”

“Yes.” Xin niang bended body and then poked inside the window to probe.

At that time Shao Zi was rest a.s.sured and returned to the kitchen. She cooked and brought the food outside. She saw that Scholar was at the cas.h.i.+er and using the abacus to calculate with an unchanged expression. [She] looked over toward the direction of the two customers from before and did not see anyone. Shao Zi blinked, “Innkeeper, where did the people sitting here go?”

“When I came out here, did not see anyone.”

Shao Zi looked at him for a bit and then looked at the two bowls of white cut chicken with the pork shoulders in hand. [She] was almost internally injured.

b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Dare to call for a meal of a king. Better not let her meet again or else each time will fight!

Just when she finished her frustrated thoughts, two people, one plump and one thin entered the door. When entered, immediately said, “Bring in the most delicious meal.” Shao Zi had no time to rejoice as she heard that they’ve asked, “Asking, for these past several days has there been one male and one female pa.s.sing by? The male is injured and the female is a little lady?”

Oh man, has come again. Shao Zi’s heart is not good…
