Arriving in the city before noon, Xiao Xingyu helped Xie Rulan out of the bullock cart and bid farewell to Ding Yong.Looking at the bustling streets, Xie Rulan felt as if she had passed away, probably because she survived the catastrophe, so she remembered to ask Xiao Xingyu at this time.

"Where are we going now?"

Xiao Xingyu supported him to walk, holding the opponent's long sword in one hand, it really didn't match the coarse clothes, and this person also had a handsome appearance.After asking someone on the street, and knowing the location of the medical clinic, Xiao Xingyu carefully helped Xie Rulan walk to the medical clinic while talking about his own arrangements.

"Although the medicine I gave you last time was very good, but the wound opened again yesterday. Let's go to the doctor first and give you the best medicine. I guarantee that there will be no scars!"

Xie Rulan was amused.

"Where there are scars, there will be scars. It's a big deal. But are you sure you still have money?"

This man gave the Ding family the only valuable things he had on him, so there is no money left on him now.

Xiao Xingyu also smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll take you to see a doctor first."

Xie Rulan heard the words but was unwilling, and said that her injury was much better. Xiao Xingyu realized that Xie Rulan didn't want others to see the tattoo on her back.After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Xingyu helped him to another place, which should be a pawnshop, with a few large characters written on the plaque on the door.

Cuihan Hall.

Xiao Xingyu helped Xie Rulan go in. The pawn shop was not big, the light inside was insufficient, and it was a little dim. In front of the tall counter, there was only a young man with a pen and an abacus quietly doing the calculations, which seemed very deserted.

The sound of knocking on the abacus kept echoing in the small pawn shop, and it came to Xie Rulan's ears. Xie Rulan looked at Xiao Xingyu in puzzlement, and asked in a low voice: "Why did you bring me here?"

Could it be that you want to exchange things for money?Xie Rulan quickly vetoed it, because Xiao Xingyu's face was solemn, as if he had made a lot of determination to come here, not as simple as just being a thing.

Xiao Xingyu gave him a relieved smile, and comforted him: "It's okay, I'll do some things first, and it will be fine soon."

After saying that, he let go of Xie Rulan, and went to the counter to look for the young man who settled the accounts.

"Shopkeeper, I'll be something."

Xie Rulan stood aside and watched. The young shopkeeper seemed to have just seen someone coming in. He glanced at Xiao Xingyu and his eyes without any fluctuation because of Xie Rulan's appearance. Then he quickly lowered his head and continued to draw something on the account book What, the tone is drawn very long casually.

"What is it, take it out and have a look? It's agreed, we don't accept live animals in the pawnshop, if you want to be the little brother next to you, then forget it, although it looks better than others, but we don't accept living people here."

Xiao Xingyu suddenly laughed, and hurriedly said: "Of course I don't want to be him."

Looking back at Xie Rulan with bent eyebrows, Xie Rulan gave him an angry look, and Xiao Xingyu immediately continued: "I don't know if the boss accepts calligraphy and paintings here?"

The shopkeeper burst out laughing, put down the penholder, sat up straight and looked up at the two of them. Only then did Xiao Xingyu notice that this young man was very smart, with slender eyebrows and eyes that seemed to have aura, which was very cute. happiness.

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand in front of the counter and said with a smile: "What calligraphy and painting, take it out and have a look?"

Xiao Xingyu said: "Actually, it's not considered calligraphy and painting, it's just an IOU."

The shopkeeper frowned slightly, feeling that Xiao Xingyu was teasing him, Xiao Xingyu said again: "The IOU written by the head of the Duanmu family."

"Homeowner?"

The shopkeeper's eyes widened when he heard the words, Xiao Xingyu took out something from his bosom, and handed it to the young man, Xiao Xingyu said: "If you don't believe the shopkeeper, you might as well take a look, it is indeed written by your patriarch."

The young man was even more surprised, "How did you know that Cuihantang is owned by the Duanmu family?"

Xiao Xingyu raised his hand and pointed to a mahogany plaque hanging in front of the counter, which seemed to be engraved with patterns of auspicious clouds. Xiao Xingyu said firmly: "Isn't this the family emblem of Duanmu's family? What's more, Cuihantang is spread all over the place. Jiangnan, who doesn't know that this is the property of the Duanmu family?"

The shopkeeper accepted the item with half-belief. It was a somewhat old embroidered handkerchief. Just looking at the material, it was indeed a high-quality product. There seemed to be words written on it.The eyebrows that were originally tensed were instantly relaxed, and he picked up the object and looked at it in the palm of his hand for a long time, and the shopkeeper showed a ghost-like expression on his face.

After a long time, he asked Xiao Xingyu with a sullen face: "Where did you get this handkerchief?"

Xiao Xingyu seemed to be relieved, and then smiled and said: "A friend of mine gave it to me. He said it was a gift from the head of the Duanmu family. Just take it to any store under the name of the Duanmu family. No matter what I want How much money can be withdrawn immediately.”

The shopkeeper thought for a while, and finally raised his eyelids and stared at the two of them, one of them was wearing coarse clothes, but his body was elegant and elegant.And the other person is even more beautiful, the shopkeeper just made fun of him, he is wearing an expensive brocade apricot robe, but he looks sick, his complexion is pale, and he looks very weak.

The shopkeeper frowned and said: "The Cuihantang is indeed in Duanmu's house, and this item belongs to the owner of the family, but I don't have much silver in this cabinet. I don't know how much you want to take?"

Hearing this, Xie Rulan, who had been on the sidelines for a long time, suddenly widened her eyes, wanting to see what was written on the handkerchief.

Xie Rulan had heard of the Duanmu family, who in Jiangnan didn't know about the Duanmu family?

This Duanmu family has been in business for several generations, and now it has monopolized the entire Jiangnan business, whether it is inns, restaurants, brothels, casinos, medical halls, rice shops and other industries.The Duanmu family's family is in Yunzhou, and this place is not far from Yunzhou.

From this, Xie Rulan guessed that Xiao Xingyu knew the head of the Duanmu family, but he didn't know the relationship, and was given a fragrant handkerchief.

Xiao Xingyu was not polite, and said to the shopkeeper: "Give me some money first, and my friend and I will go to the inn next door to stay in a while, and you will send a thousand taels of silver notes over here. Also, my friend has accepted it." Knife wound, please hurry up and call a doctor with superb medical skills, remember to be tight-lipped, and my friend's wound medicine must also be the best, and you can't be sloppy."

Xie Rulan was even more surprised when she heard Xiao Xingyu's words, and her heart throbbed slightly.

The shopkeeper, who had been sluggish just now, seemed to be a different person. He handed the embroidered handkerchief back to Xiao Xingyu with both hands, nodded eagerly, and responded one by one: "Yes! I will do it myself, I don’t know what this master’s name is?”

Xiao Xingyu took back the handkerchief and happened to see Xie Rulan curiously looking over it, thought for a while before putting it away, and babbled nonsense to the shopkeeper.

"My last name is Xie."

Xie Rulan immediately frowned, wondering why Xiao Xingyu still had his surname?

The shopkeeper directly took off the money bag from his waist and handed it to Xiao Xingyu, and then said respectfully: "It turns out to be Mr. Xie, He Jiang, the shopkeeper of No. 30 No. [-] Branch of Villain Cuihantang, Mr. Xie, please rest assured, the two villains are all ready." Immediately send it over, and then go to the doctor to treat this young master."

The money bag was heavy, probably more than 20 taels of silver, Xiao Xingyu took the money bag directly and took Xie Rulan out, and actually walked towards the opposite inn, Xie Rulan asked him suspiciously.

"Do you know the head of the Duanmu family?"

Xiao Xingyu's calm air just now disappeared as soon as he left the pawn shop, and he honestly handed the embroidered handkerchief to Xie Rulan, explaining: "I have known her since I was a child, and she owed me money, so she immediately gave me money." I got the IOU, look at it."

Not knowing where Xiao Xingyu's trust in him came from, Xie Rulan was puzzled, but she unceremoniously unfolded the snow-white embroidered handkerchief to take a look, and immediately twitched the corners of her mouth.

There are two rows of big crooked characters on it, and there are some typos. It looks more like it was written by a child of a few years old. It seems that the head of the Duanmu family owed Xiao Xingyu a bunch of candied haws. How much will Xiao Xingyu want her in the future? The meaning is given.

If it wasn't for the Duanmu family's red stamp on the back, Xie Rulan would never have believed it was true.

No wonder the shopkeeper looked at Xiao Xingyu like that just now, Xiao Xingyu put the handkerchief in his arms, smiled embarrassedly and said: "That girl used to be annoying, so I asked her to write this, but she is so childish. It's all from childhood!"

Is the head of the Duanmu family a woman?Xie Rulan was slightly surprised, and then thought that he didn't know what the other princes were doing when they were young, but it was certain that Xiao Xingyu must have been bullying girls when he was young, so he was a little dumbfounded, so he returned the embroidered handkerchief to Xiao Xingyu. Ask more.

The two went to the inn to ask for a room, but because they looked poorly dressed, if they hadn't taken out the silver taels, how could the waiter in the largest inn in the city guide them to the room.Xiao Xingyu supported Xie Rulan all the way, with a completely cautious look. Xie Rulan didn't miss it, and she trusted him a little bit more in her heart.

Not long after settling down, there was a knock on the door, and the person who came was the young shopkeeper He Jiang, behind him was a young doctor with a medicine box on his back, and a small wooden box in his hand.

"Thank you, sir, the doctor is here."

Xiao Xingyu glanced at the doctor, he looked honest and honest, nodded immediately, and led the two of them into the room.

Seeing Xiao Xingyu's nervousness towards Xie Rulan, He Jiang entered the room and urged the doctor to see Xie Rulan who was sitting at the table, but Xiao Xingyu shook his head and said: "My friend's injury is very serious, please come inside first Time to look at the wound."

When He Jiang came here, he told the doctor that it was a trauma, the doctor nodded, followed Xiao Xingyu and Xie Rulan into the screen, He Jiang knew that Xiao Xingyu didn't want him to see him, so he also waited quietly outside.

Xie Rulan was very nervous, he never promised to let other people to help him heal his injuries, he held Xiao Xingyu's wrist tightly, and lowered his voice with a cold face, it happened that only the two of them could hear him, as if annoyed: " I don't want him to watch, tell him to go!"

Xiao Xingyu didn't want to accommodate him anymore, raised his eyebrows and said: "I don't know how to do medicine, you have to ask the doctor to see your injury, besides, the old doctor saw it last night, don't worry, don't worry. I won't let them see what they should see, be good, let him see."

Not to mention that Xiao Xingyu confessed that someone had already looked at his back last night, but Xie Rulan was frightened by his gentle and gentle voice, and she silently acquiesced.

When Xiao Xingyu asked him to sit on the edge of the bed and pulled his clothes away, Xie Rulan realized that she was a little aggressive to protect her skirt, with a little fear in her eyes.Xiao Xingyu knew what he was worried about, and said softly: "You promised me just now, let him look at the wound, and it will heal soon."

The young doctor was unloading the medicine box at this time, and when he saw the two sticky and still biting their ears, he couldn't help coughing lightly, and reminded him: "I don't know how the young master's injury is, what was it hurt by?"

There were other people around, Xie Rulan was a little embarrassed, struggled for a while, then bit her lips and stared slightly at Xiao Xingyu, telling Xiao Xingyu seriously: "Just watch it once, let him go immediately after watching it!"

There seemed to be some water in the eyes, because the thin face was puffed up because of anger, and the lips were slightly pouting, looking very cute, Xiao Xingyu swallowed his throat, and was so anxious that he was about to swear to the sky.

"I promise, I won't let him see too much!"
