After hearing what Gui Chaye said, the young man was so scared that he kowtowed and said yes. Seeing this, Gui Chaye no longer bothered with the young man. Instead, he looked at the direction where Qiu Yan and Xiao Nan left and said, "Go! Find out which inn they are staying in for me, and then come back and tell me. I don't believe that a little kid can rebel in this Xichui Town!"

"Yes! Big brother!" After hearing what Gui Chaye said, the young man did not hesitate. He replied and quickly stood up to find out Qiu Yan's whereabouts. But at this time, the young man suddenly thought of something, so he turned around and looked at Gui Ye and asked in a low voice, "Gui Ye, what about this old woman?"

The young man wanted to ask Master Gui what to do with the old woman, which Master Gui could understand, but he had just been beaten because of the old woman, and the person who beat him might be nearby, so even if he wanted to do anything to the old woman at this time, he didn't dare! In addition, he knew the details of this old lady Chen, and he could make trouble for her at any time in the future. But Qiu Yan was different. Qiu Yan was just a passerby, and she might leave tomorrow after staying for a day.

So after thinking for a while, Gui Chaye said to the young man, "Don't worry about the old woman today. I want to get my revenge first!"

Hearing what Gui Chaye said, the young man seemed to understand what Gui Chaye meant, nodded and said yes, and then went to do his own thing. When Gui saw the young man leave, he looked at the direction where Qiu Yan and Xiao Nan left, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, then he turned around and walked directly towards the town government office.

Qiuyan was unaware of what was going on between Gui Chaye and the young man. At this time, Qiuyan and Xiaonan had already found a hotel called Fulai Inn and were asking the owner about the price of the room. "Boss, how much is your room per night?"

The shopkeeper was fiddling with his calculator to calculate the bill. When he heard someone calling him, he knew that a guest had arrived, so he immediately stopped what he was doing, looked up with a smile, and when he saw Qiu Yan and Xiao Nan standing in front of the counter, he smiled and replied, "My two guests, what kind of guest room do you want to stay in? Our rooms are divided into three categories: upper, middle and lower. The lower category is an ordinary double room, which costs one silver coin per person per night. The middle category is an ordinary single room, which costs three silver coins per person per night. The upper category is a private room, which costs one gold coin per person per night." The shopkeeper briefly introduced the types of rooms and their prices. After listening to the shopkeeper's introduction, Qiu Yan didn't waste any words. He took out two gold coins and slapped them in front of the shopkeeper, saying, "Two upper category rooms!"

Seeing Qiuyan directly took out two gold coins, the shopkeeper's smile became even wider. He put away the gold coins and walked out of the counter. He said to Qiuyan and Xiaonan, "You two guests are very straightforward. Please go upstairs. I will take you to your room to rest." After that, the shopkeeper stretched out a hand and pointed to the stairs.

After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Qiuyan nodded and went upstairs without saying anything. Xiaonan followed him. After the two went upstairs, the shopkeeper followed behind. Then, under the guidance of the shopkeeper, Qiuyan and Xiaonan came to the front of a guest room. After arriving in front of the guest room, the shopkeeper opened the door of the room and said to Qiuyan and Xiaonan with a smile, "My two guests, this is Room A. I wonder which of you two would like to stay here?" After the shopkeeper said this, he looked at Qiuyan and Xiaonan.

"Pumpkin, you can stay in this room!" It was Qiu Yan who spoke. After hearing Qiu Yan's words, Xiao Nan looked into the room and nodded. The shopkeeper saw that the owner of this room had been confirmed, so he walked to the next room, opened the door and said to Qiu Yan, "In that case, this young man can stay in this room!"

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, Qiu Yan nodded. He did not worry about which room to stay in. Instead, he looked at the shopkeeper and said, "The room is not important. Please prepare some hot water for us. We want to take a shower first. Prepare a few dishes. Just pick the best dishes in your restaurant. We will go downstairs to eat after taking a shower." Although Qiu Yan was not hungry, he knew that Xiaonan must be hungry after walking for a day, so it was reasonable for him to ask the shopkeeper to prepare food first.

After hearing what Qiu Yan said, the shopkeeper smiled and nodded, agreed very readily, and then went downstairs happily. After the shopkeeper went downstairs, Qiu Yan looked at Xiao Nan standing at the door and continued, "Okay, we have been walking for a day, you should go back to your room and rest for a while. After the shopkeeper prepares the water, we will take a bath first, and then go downstairs to eat."

Hearing Qiuyan's words, Xiaonan nodded obediently, then she looked at Qiuyan, thought about what happened just now, and said to Qiuyan again, "Brother, thank you so much today. If it weren't for you, I would have..." Xiaonan didn't say anything more because she didn't know how to say it, but Qiuyan understood what she meant, so when she heard Xiaonan say this, Qiuyan smiled and said to Xiaonan, "What are you thanking me for? You are my little pumpkin. These are what I should do!"

After Qiu Yan finished speaking, Xiao Nan did not say anything more, but nodded with satisfaction, and then went back to the room. Seeing Xiao Nan return to the room, Qiu Yan also returned to the room. Since he did not know when the hot water would be delivered, after returning to the room, Qiu Yan sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice.

After Qiu Yan returned to her room, she started to practice without thinking about anything. After Xiao Nan returned to her room, she leaned against the door, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and began to think about what happened today. Today, Qiu Yan beat Gui Chaye without saying a word for her, which touched Xiao Nan very much.

In fact, when Xiaonan first came out with Qiuyan, she was a little worried that she couldn't get along with this brother, and was even more worried that her brother would have some bad thoughts about her, but now it seems that he was just overthinking. Although Qiuyan is not her biological brother, and they have only known each other for less than a day, Qiuyan really treats her like a biological sister, which Xiaonan really didn't expect. Although Qiuyan promised to take good care of her from the beginning, the feeling between saying and doing is different. What you do is always more convincing and more touching than what you say.

So after what happened just now, Xiaonan now completely trusts her brother, believes that he can take good care of herself, and believes that he is selfless to her. Thinking of this, Xiaonan couldn't help but think of what Aunt Yang said to her before she left. Aunt Yang told Xiaonan before she left that she should not regard Qiuyan as her brother after she turned 18, but as her future man. Although she was very opposed to Aunt Yang's words at that time, because she felt that this kind of thing was too early for her, she didn't want to think about it now. Besides, she hadn't had contact with Qiuyan at that time and didn't understand Qiuyan's character, so she refused at that time. However, due to the insistence of Aunt Yang and her mother, Xiaonan could only temporarily agree to what Aunt Yang said. But now when Xiaonan thinks of what Aunt Yang said to her before, Xiaonan is no longer so resistant, because she now has some understanding of Qiuyan and knows Qiuyan's general character. Although it's hard to say whether she likes or not, at least she doesn't hate Qiuyan's character.

Qiu Yan practiced in the room for about half an hour, and then he heard someone knocking on the door. Then he heard a man's voice coming in, "Sir, the hot water is ready. Would you mind opening the door?"

This voice was not the voice of the shopkeeper just now. This voice sounded very young, probably from the shop assistant. So after hearing what the assistant said, Qiu Yan stopped practicing and said to the door, "Okay, please wait a moment, I will open the door now." After saying that, Qiu Yan got off the bed, walked towards the door and opened it. After opening the door, Qiu Yan saw a young man standing at the door who looked only a few dozen years old. The young man had a smile on his face. When he saw Qiu Yan open the door, he said directly, "Sir, one cool and one hot, it's just right for taking a bath!"

After hearing what the waiter said, Qiu Yan looked at the two wooden barrels in his hands. The barrels were filled with water, one of which was steaming, while the other was not. Seeing this, Qiu Yan smiled and said to the waiter, "Thank you! Just give me the water!"

"Okay, sir!" After hearing what Qiu Yan said, the waiter handed over two buckets of water to Qiu Yan. Seeing this, Qiu Yan didn't say much and took the water. After taking the water, Qiu Yan turned to the waiter and asked, "Has the hot water for Room A been delivered?"

Hearing Qiu Yan's question, the waiter smiled and nodded, then said, "Yes! The one in Room A has been delivered just now, and it was also delivered by me!"

"Oh! OK, thank you then!" Qiu Yan's tone was very polite, which made the waiter feel comfortable. He scratched his head, smiled and asked Qiu Yan, "Excuse me, sir. This is what I should do." After that, the waiter continued, "Does the sir have anything else to say? If not, I'll go down first."

"Not for now. I'll call you if I need you." Qiu Yan said in a flat tone.

"Okay, sir. If you need anything, call me. I'll go down first!" After saying that, the waiter turned and left. After the waiter left, Qiu Yan closed the door of the room, then poured the two buckets of water into a large wooden barrel behind the screen in the room, and then took off his clothes and prepared to take a bath!
