Lin Shuo ate breakfast, drank the medicine, and went downstairs. He had been lying in bed for a day or two, and he also needed to be active.

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

Today is only the seventh day of the first lunar year, 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.

Ah Hu also came down shortly after.

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

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

The man was in his thirties and forties, with empty eye sockets and no eyeballs. He carried a drum on his back and a shelf in his hand.

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

Both were wet.

The two came in, stood at the door, and set up the drum with a stand. The little girl beat 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.

When he came out, he waved his hand, as if to chase away flies, "Walk around, don't sing with me, it's a big New Year's day, there are not many guests, where can I still have money to send you."

The little girl looked at the innkeeper terrified, and the blind man begged, "Boss, do well, we haven't eaten in more than a day, so let's pass it by."

"Just leftovers will do."

The boss raised his eyebrows, "No."

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

"Let's 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. on my account."

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

The boss went in and called Xiao Er.

Ah Hu took out a delicate brocade purse from his body, opened it, and digged into it.

After a long time, he took out a piece of broken silver.

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, but there was nothing in it.

Ah Hu 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 bills have not been settled yet."

Ah Hu squeezed the 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 it again, just nodded.

Xiao Er quickly took gruel and steamed buns and gave them to the two.

The two thanked Ah Hu, sat 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 play three drums, hoping to make a few coins?"

"Who knew it would rain for 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 shi 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."

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