Chapter 186 The consultation fee has not been paid yet

  Lin Shuo ate breakfast and drank the medicine, then went downstairs and lay on the bed for a day or two. He also needed to move around.

  Lin Shuo paced to Jiang Youzhi's side to watch him teach Gu Chuan and Liu Langhe how to play chess.

   Today is only the seventh day of the first lunar month, and it's still New Year's Eve. Gu Yunjiao and his family live in this inn, as well as Lin Shuo's master and servant. At this moment, everyone is gathered in the lobby.

  The room upstairs was small, and it was suffocating.

  Ahu came down shortly after.

   He also stood next to Lin Shuo, watching a few people play chess.

   At this moment, a man and a woman came in through the door.

  The man is in his thirties and forties, his eyes are empty, and he has no eyeballs. He is carrying a drum on his back and a stand in his hand.

   The girl was only eleven or twelve years old, carrying a burden and holding a small gong in her hand.

   Both of them got wet.

   These two people came in, and as soon as they stood at the door, they set up the drum with a stand. The little girl played the gong, and the blind man played the drum, and sang rhythmically while playing the drum.

  Gu Yunjiao could barely hear what the man was singing, she put down the book in her hand and stared at the two with interest.

  The man only sang a few words, and the innkeeper came out from behind.

   waved his hand as if to chase away flies, "Walk around, don't sing with me, the New Year's Eve, there are not many guests, where can I still have money to send you."

  The little girl looked at the innkeeper in fear, and the blind man begged: "Boss, please do it, we haven't eaten for more than a day, just pass the time."

   "Just leftovers will do."

   The boss raised his eyebrows, "No."

   "You people begging for rice, I don't know how many you will come in a day, how can I have so many leftovers to pass away!"

   "Go and go!"

Gu Yunjiao saw that both of them were wet, she was really pitiful, she took out a few coins, and just as she was about to say something, she heard Ah Hu say: "Boss, you ask Xiao Er to bring out some gruel and steamed buns for them, it counts. on my account."

   The boss gave Ah Hu a flattering smile, "Okay, here we come."

  The boss went in and called Xiao Er.

  Ahu took out a delicate brocade purse from his body, opened it and digged it inside.

   He took out a piece of silver for a long time.

   He was about to throw the silver in his hand to the little girl when his hand suddenly stopped.

   He turned the purse over in disbelief, and there was nothing in it.

  Ahu blinked and looked at Lin Shuo.

  Lin Shuo looked at him helplessly.

  Gu Yunjiao looked at Ah Hu's purse and coughed lightly, "Well, I almost forgot, your medical fees haven't been settled yet."

  Ahu squeezed the more than three taels of silver in his hand, and said a little embarrassedly: "Doctor Gu didn't say that I almost forgot, I'm really sorry, I'll go back to the room to get the silver and give it to the girl."

  Gu Yunjiao said this and didn't say any more, just nodded.

  Xiao Er quickly brought gruel and steamed buns to the two of them.

   The two thanked Ah Hu and sat down at the table and devoured it. It seemed that they were really hungry.

  Chen shi chatted with the little girl next to him, "It's raining and it's New Year's Eve, why don't you stay at home?"

   The blind man sighed, "Isn't this taking advantage of the Chinese New Year to come out and play three drums, hoping to make a few coins?"

   "Who knew it rained two days in a row."

   "Yesterday, our father and daughter spent a day in the ruined temple. If we don't come out in the rain today to earn some money, we will starve to death."

  Chen looked at the man with pity and said nothing.

  Gu Yunjiao handed the little girl a few pennies in her hand, "It sings very nicely, and the words rhyme."

   Lin Shuo winked at Ah Hu, and the two went upstairs.
