Chapter 255
Shaking her body, don't let this wet feeling stick to her body.

Qiao Guxin came back to his senses, and stared at Shen Qiuhe coldly from the side.

Shen Qiuhe was still trembling there with his arms propped up, but after noticing Qiao Guxin's gaze, his face immediately became a little unnatural, and he laughed dryly, "It's raining outside, I'm in a hurry to come out, you can't bear to let me Is it raining outside?"

Qiao Guxin ignored Shen Qiuhe, looked away, and then moved aside, thinking to stay away from Shen Qiuhe.

Shen Qiuhe didn't intend to talk to Qiao intentionally, but lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the pattering rain outside, and a smile appeared on his lips.

I still remember the last time he came here, he could only stand stupidly outside, but now that he can sit in the carriage, it is progress.

Not far away, Chu Hanyin stared at the carriage and closed his eyes slightly.

Then with a chuckle, he raised his whip and left on the mountain road.

It's just that in my heart, just like the rain, it keeps falling.

Even though he knew that Shen Qiuhe would be able to protect Qiao's heart when he came, but he was still worried and wanted to guard it. A glance from a distance was enough.

Because it was raining, the carriage moved extremely slowly, and by the time they crossed the bridge, the water had already swelled.

The coachman reported that it was dangerous to drive in the dark, the tide had already covered the bridge deck, and if he walked directly, he was afraid of accidents.

After hearing this, Shen Qiuhe jumped out of the carriage regardless of the rain. The coachman said that it seemed to be full just now, and it seemed that the water had risen at this very moment.

The sign is wrong, crossing the river is too risky.

Shen Qiu weighed the river for a moment, then ordered to cross the river and go back to the city, and find an inn nearby to stay first.

Taixue also has family members sending their students off. If the weather is bad and Taixue has no place to live, they must stay in an inn, so they came across the inn after walking back.

The inn is not big, but it has everything you need. After getting off the carriage, Xiaoer immediately greeted him with an oil-paper umbrella. There was also a horse-leader below, and he took good care of it.

After entering, there were two or three people who were having dinner, and Shen Qiuhe and his party came in, which made the hall look a lot more lively.

Shen Qiuhe walked to the counter, glanced at Qiao Guxin behind him, "Shopkeeper, how many rooms are there?"

The shopkeeper looked at Shen Qiuhe and then at Qiao Guxin.

After thinking for a moment, "How many rooms are you going to ask for? How many rooms do we want? How many rooms do we have?"

Generally, there are many people living here when Taixue is resting, and there are very few people living here on weekdays. In addition to the bad weather today, the store is extremely deserted.

Shen Qiuhe secretly scolded the shopkeeper in his heart, that he doesn't know how to do business.

But it didn't show on his face, he asked for four rooms in a regular manner, one for the coachman and the servant, one for the rosary and incense, and one for Qiao Guxin and Shen Qiuhe.

After tidying up, everyone simply had dinner below.

Because he didn't bring a change of clothes, Shen Qiuhe returned to the house after dinner.After returning, he took off his clothes to dry, sat under the oil lamp, and listened to the movement outside.

I didn't feel anything before, and I don't know why today. I always feel that the room is spacious and deserted.

In particular, Joe's heart is still living in the next room.

Shen Qiuhe could only listen with his ears upright, but he couldn't hear clearly in this room.

Shen Qiuhe supported the table and stood up slowly, and he couldn't explain why he acted lightly. He was always afraid of being heard, so he tiptoed to the door, opened a crack quietly, and couldn't help looking at Qiao Guxin. look around.

"Is there anything you want?" Just as Rosary Bead brought hot water up, seeing Shen Qiuhe's thug-like appearance, he couldn't help asking.

Shen Qiuhe didn't expect that the rosary would pop out suddenly, so he couldn't help but shivered, "It's okay." He hurriedly left the words and closed the door tightly.

Rosary shook her head, didn't say any more, went in with hot water, and waited for Qiao to wash up first.

After being discovered by the rosary, Shen Qiuhe didn't dare to look at it anymore, so he could only continue to sit.

The candlelight was flickering, three wicks had been trimmed, and the outside became more and more quiet, as if it had entered night.

Shen Qiuhe didn't feel sleepy at all, he just supported his head and stared at the candlelight in a daze.

It's just that he didn't wear a coat, and there was a hint of coolness. Shen Qiuhe pulled the thin quilt over his body and continued to sit there.

Suddenly Shen Qiuhe heard a creaking sound, because the night was very quiet, even the slightest sound could be heard clearly.

This voice obviously came from Qiao Guxin's room.

This turned out to be a black shop?

Shen Qiuhe turned over and jumped out directly.

Then heard a bang, without thinking, Shen Qiuhe slammed into Qiao Guxin's door directly.

Suddenly there was such a loud voice, Qiao Guxin woke up suddenly, holding the pearl hairpin that had been placed under the pillow in his hand, staring at the door tightly, "Who?"

"It's me!" Shen Qiuhe was outside, and replied in a deep voice.

This movement startled the boy awake, he opened the door and saw that Shen Qiuhe was outside Qiao Guxin's room, then he backed away.

Qiao Guxin didn't know what Shen Qiuhe was doing outside his room without sleeping in the middle of the night?Throw the pearl hairpin under the pillow, walk over and open the door.

Seeing that Shen Qiuhe's face was not right, Qiao Guxin didn't reprimand him, "What's the matter?"

Shen Qiuhe turned around and immediately closed the door, strode to Qiao Guxin's desk, lit the candle, looked around, there was nothing suspicious.

"I just heard creaking noises in your room, and I thought there was a murderer." After confirming that the room was safe, Shen Qiuhe was relieved.

The tone also eased.

Qiao Guxin heard that it was nothing serious, because he still had a headache at the moment, his brows were furrowed unconsciously, he stretched out his hand to rub it, and said impatiently, "Master Shen's hearing is really good."

You can hear the movements in your own room clearly.

Just at this time, there was another creaking sound.

Shen Qiuhe immediately looked vigilant, and looked towards the place where the sound came from based on his feeling.

It was obviously coming from the window, Shen Qiuhe took a few steps quickly, and suddenly opened the window, there was a louder squeak, he looked down and saw that the night was just right, and there was no one there.

Qiao Gu pointed to the window angrily, "Master Shen, is this stupid?"

Obviously, after the rain, there was a wind, and Qiao intentionally left a gap in the window because he was afraid of the heat. When the wind came, the window lattice made a creaking sound.

Shen Qiuhe was a little bit embarrassed, and said awkwardly, "I misunderstood."

Qiao intentionally yelled, and didn't bother to pursue these things. She just raised her hand as a gesture of invitation. In the middle of the night, she still wanted to sleep.

Shen Qiuhe didn't dare to say much, and hurriedly bowed his head and went out.

As soon as Shen Qiuhe left, Qiao Guxin locked the door inward again.

I closed my eyes and moved towards the collapse. I seemed to be dreaming just now. It was a good dream. If I was lucky, I might be able to connect the dream.

He collapsed on the ground and stretched his arms comfortably. It's dark and it's better to sleep.

Shen Qiuhe went outside, but didn't go back to his room, and he couldn't say why, Shen Qiuhe suddenly didn't want to leave, curled up, and sat down by Qiao Guxin's door frame, "Xin girl."

Shen Qiuhe thought about it. In the past, he called Qiao Guxin his wife, and later Miss Qiao and the county magistrate, but these titles felt a bit unfamiliar, so he might as well call Qiao Guxin like an elder.

Qiao Guxin was closing her eyes and trying to recall the dream just now. She actually heard the movement, but she didn't want to pay attention to it.

After a while, hearing Qiao Guxin not agreeing to himself, Shen Qiuhe continued, "Xin girl, are you asleep?"

Qiao Gu got up from the collapse, "Shen Qiuhe, have you been kicked?"

It's like calling the soul at night, how can it make people sleep?

It's fine to call him, but he deliberately took advantage of him, and called him a girl, so that he knew he had seen him, and called him Qiuhe's son!
Because it was night, Qiao intentionally lowered his voice deliberately, and when he woke up, his voice was a little waxy.

Shen Qiuhe couldn't help curling his lips outside the door, "I just want to tell you, I'll watch for you outside the door, you can sleep peacefully."

Although it was just the wind just now, what if some gangsters come, this is not the mansion after all, there are so many people patrolling.

Thinking of that possibility, Shen Qiuhe felt uncomfortable all over his body. It would be better to keep vigil at Qiao's old heart. Being closer to Qiao's old heart would give him some peace of mind.

Hearing that there was no movement inside again, Shen Qiuhe put his hands on his lap naturally, and moved a position to make himself as comfortable as possible.

"Xin girl, I suddenly remembered a gossip. It was an incident that happened in the military camp. The name is called, good brothers want to back to back." Shen Qiuhe's voice was deliberately low and elongated, with a bit of mystery.

This is actually a gossip he read, it was about hauntings in the military camp, and it really fit the occasion with this pitch-black night.

Qiao Guxin originally wanted to ignore him, waiting for Shen Qiuhe to get tired of chattering, there will always be a time to shut up.

However, Shen Qiuhe's story is so attractive, Qiao Guxin still listened to it, waiting for the last sentence, the good brothers will end back to back, Qiao Guxin only felt that there were eyes all around, staring at her and waiting for an opportunity.

Qiao deliberately curled up in the quilt, thinking that the quilt would wrap him tightly, but he couldn't explain why, the quilt was rolled up tighter, as if a pair of big hands were pinching him tightly.

Qiao sat up with a thump, and looked for a fire book to light the candle.

However, Shen Qiuhe heard the commotion inside the house, and said outside, "Don't be afraid, it's all fake."

Can you still use Shen Qiuhe to say this?Of course Qiao Guxin knew it was all fake.

But even if he knew, he would still be terrified in the middle of the night!
Qiao Guxin kicked the door from the inside, "If you talk again, I will sew your mouth shut!"

Perhaps Qiao's intentional threat had worked, and it sounded much quieter outside.

However, this time he woke up completely, Qiao deliberately couldn't fall asleep because of tossing and turning, but Shen Qiuhe outside, listening to the movement in the house, gradually fell asleep.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep quickly, but I didn't sleep well. This sleep seemed to be a long dream.

In the dream, he saw the weeping Qiao Guxin, making a wish to the moon, wishing that her husband would die early due to misfortune, or that she herself would suffer from a long-term illness.
