Stage [Republic of China]

I have read the book again, and it is much more useful than us rough guys!If you are willing to stay, it will definitely come in handy. "

"What use can I be for?" Shui Jiu laughed. "I have neither been trained, nor have I been on the battlefield to kill people like you."

"But you can read!" Shuan Zi looked serious. "Those who can read and write are of great use."

Shui Jiu couldn't argue with Shuan Zi, so he could only smile.

Shuan Zi repeatedly persuaded Shui Jiu to stay and enter the city with them, Shui Jiu just smiled.Seeing that Shuanzi was unable to attack, everyone besieged them together, and tried to persuade them: "Mr. Ruohua, the northern city of Jibei has been settled, why don't you come with us? Even if it's an opera, you have to have it." Isn’t it a backer? Our rebel army is the biggest backer.”

Shui Jiu's heart moved, and the fingers that were holding the chopsticks unconsciously twitched for a moment.He hangs out with Xu Jishan, what he relies on is Xu Jishan's love for him.If he really left this land together with Xu Jishan and traveled across the sea to Nanyang... In case that person no longer loves him one day, or the elders of the Xu family don't welcome him in, he will How can a person live alone in Nanyang, who has left his hometown and cannot speak Nanyang dialect?

Everyone watched his words and expressions, and saw that he seemed to be moved, and immediately stepped up to persuade him: "Hey, that's the reason! As the saying goes, even if you go up the mountain to shave your head, you have to deal with people even if you are a monk. We Jiangnan Rebels have no other benefits, only one!"

The person who spoke slapped his chest loudly and said loudly, "There are so many of us!"

"Hahahaha..." Everyone laughed.

Shui Jiu also laughed.But the meal was tasteless to him.He just moved his chopsticks slightly, took a bite of the chicken, and felt that all the food was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't swallow it anymore.

After the meal, Shuanzi sent him out.According to Shuanzi's intention, she had to be sent all the way back to her residence, but Shui Jiu stopped him and said, "It's okay, I'll walk home by myself."

Embolus hesitated. "Mr. Ruohua, do you really not consider working with us?"

Shui Jiu raised her face, closed her eyes slightly, and said quietly after a few seconds: "Let me think about it for two more days."

"Ah, yes, yes." Seeing that he really let go, Shuanzi was overjoyed and said, "Mr. Ruohua, if you figure it out, you will go to the rice shop to look for us when you arrive in Jibei City."

"Which rice shop?"

"It's the house where Zhuzi stayed before."

Shui Jiu nodded knowingly.

The two separated in front of the Facebook booth where they met.The stall selling facial makeup had been closed long ago, Shui Jiu took a look, and the sky was gloomy, as if it was going to rain.

It rains in winter, but it is not easy to walk.Shui Jiu rolled up her sleeves and hurried towards the inn.

Strangely, when he arrived at the inn, he didn't find Xu Jishan.The room was empty, but the quilt had been turned over. Obviously Xu Jishan had come back and lifted the quilt to look for him.

Sooner or later, this person actually ran out.

Shui Jiu hurried downstairs again, and ran into the guy brought by Xu Jishan head-on.When the man saw him, he couldn't help being taken aback. "Sir, my boss is out looking for you."

"Oh," Shui Jiu nodded, "He went out alone?"

"one person."

Rumbling, there seemed to be thunder in the distance.Thunder is rare in winter.Everyone looked outside in surprise.

"Oh, it's raining!"

The inn clerk yelled, and then hurriedly closed the doors and windows in a mess.

Shui Jiu and Xu Guyji looked at each other. "I have to go out and get him an umbrella."

"The boss doesn't know which direction to go." The guy was also anxious, and hurried back to the house while talking, trotted to get two umbrellas, and handed them to Shui Jiu.After handing over the umbrella, he hesitated and said, "Either I should find more people and go find them separately."

"Well, call a few more people." Shui Jiu nodded.

The guy called another five or six people, and together with Shui Jiu, they went out to meet Xu Jishan with a lamp in their hand.

This search took more than half an hour, and when they returned to the inn one after another, they were all downcast, obviously no one was found.

can't you?Xu Jishan didn't have any old friends in Wannian County, and the business in the store had already been cleaned up, so even if he went to the street to find him, it wouldn't take so long.

Shui Jiu's trousers were all wet by the rain, and he felt a little depressed, but he had no choice but to sit under the lamp and wait for Xu Jishan.After a few seconds, he opened the door and asked the waiter to warm the food on the stove.After thinking about it, he asked for a pot of rice wine that had been warmed up, and carried it back to the room in his hand.

Thinking, if Xu Jishan came back from the rain, let him take a hot bath first, and then warm up with this rice wine.

The water in the barrel was steaming hot.

If Xu Jishan doesn't come back, the water will be cold in a while.

Shui Jiu raised her hand and held her head in a daze, leaning halfway on the table to doze off, and unconsciously fell asleep in a daze.There was the sound of wind and rain in his ears, and suddenly a gust of wind lifted the moon-white gown that was close to him, making a crackling sound.

Startled, Shui Jiu opened her eyes, and Xu Jishan was standing in front of her.

Xu Jishan was wet all over, like a water monkey that just fell into the water.Shui Jiu hurriedly pressed her hands on the table, stood up and said, "Why did you come back at this o'clock? Hurry up, take a hot bath first, and change your clothes."

He turned around and fetched the clean clothes for Xu Jishan, reached into the barrel to test the temperature, and frowned slightly. "The water temperature is just right. Although it's not cold, it's not hot either."

Xu Jishan coughed violently for a while.

Shui Jiu turned her head and saw that Xu Jishan was still coughing with her hands on her lips, so she panicked again: "I'd better drink a cup of hot tea to warm up."

Xu Jishan had always been tall and big, and every time she saw him, she greeted him with a smile. She was so silent like tonight, which had never happened before.Shui Jiu panicked, and suspected that she hadn't woken up, maybe she was still dreaming.Leng Baishang lifted the teapot, but forgot to pour the tea, looking very dazed.

As soon as Xu Jishan stopped coughing, she suppressed the look between her eyebrows and eyes, and asked indifferently, "Where did you go this afternoon?"

"Go out for a stroll." Shui Jiu pursed her lips. "Are you trying to check me?"

Shui Jiu intended to make a joke.Unexpectedly, Xu Jishan's face suddenly darkened, her eyebrows were thick, and she looked as if she was about to run away on the spot.The beeswax-colored big hand suddenly raised, pop!It was slapped heavily on the table, and the teacups jingled and rang.

The tea cup cracked, and the light reflected on it was shattered by Xu Jishan's slap.

Shui Jiu also changed his face in an instant, elbowed off the table, and looked at Xu Jishan coldly. "What are you doing? Are you going to take me as a prisoner for trial?"

"What?" Xu Jishan gritted her teeth and laughed. "You can come whenever you want, and leave whenever you want. Boss Shui, ever since you recognized you, you have to say something from your conscience. When did you say hello to me first when you disappeared?"

Shui Jiu became annoyed by his demeanor, swayed his neck, and his voice was so cold that it could drop ice scum. "What do you mean? I'm not who you are, and I never owe you money..."

When Shui Jiu said this in a fit of anger, she was suddenly startled, so the two Xiu straightened their eyebrows and raised their eyebrows, and their laughter became colder and colder. "That's right, I've been in debt to you ever since you beat Qin Ershao for me at Paramount. Speaking of which, how much money does Mr. Shui owe to Mr. Xu? It's better to write an IOU. Shui will be regarded as a debtor in his life." Beg for food everywhere like a cow or a horse, and I will never owe you a penny."

"You..." Xu Jishan told him that his throat was blocked with words and he couldn't breathe.

He hurried back in the heavy rain, hoping that this person could still wait for him in the inn.Right now, this person is indeed in the inn, but the aggrieved anger in his heart has not gone down, on the contrary, he wants to...! The fire is burning more and more intensely.

This man, this man, has been chasing people from the very beginning.This person always came and left whenever he wanted, without even saying hello.What do you think of him, Xu Jishan!

Xu Jishan closed her eyes forcefully, but the bad breath in her heart could not go away.The palm of his hand that was slapped on the table was painful, probably because the place where he was cut when he was looking for Shui Jiu outside had been split again.

But Xu Jishan didn't want Shui Jiu to know that he was injured, so she quietly clenched her fingers into fists and said bitterly: "I also know that you don't like being mixed up with me. I asked you repeatedly if you want to come with me How do you answer me every time you go to Nanyang? Huh?"

Xu Jishan also raised her thick eyebrows as she spoke, her amber eagle eyes were gloomy under the light, as if the deep sea before the rainstorm was gestating endless storms. "Boss Shui, you just want to pat your conscience and say, what do you think I promised someone?"

"What are you doing?" Shui Jiu was also annoyed.

He waited for Xu Jishan all night, warmed tea and poured wine, and asked someone to prepare a wooden barrel of hot water, thinking that he was thoughtful in everything.Now the two of them are as close as glue, going in and out together all day long, he thought he and Xu Jishan had made it clear enough.Unexpectedly, this guy was still suspicious of him.

"I want to ask Mr. Xu back," Shui Jiu said with a sneer. "I don't know what Mr. Xu thinks of Shuimou? Is it a canary kept in a cage, or is it something that you have to do in the house to serve you whenever and wherever you want?"

"You..." Xu Jishan became angry again. "Being with me makes you so reluctant?"

Xu Jishan stared at Shui Jiu stubbornly, wishing he could break this man into pieces, knead him to pieces, and confuse him into his blood and flesh.No, even if the two broke up and reunited, Xu Jishan still felt uneasy in her heart.He kept clenching his fist under the light, the wound in his palm was completely split open, and blood was dripping.The cold rain on a winter night outside the house was also ticking.

The scene is horrific.

Xu Jishan wants to have a word with the person in front of her
