I just want to live a good life

Chapter 220 Don’t Give Me Away

The guy who boils the water is called Wang Er, and he was a new guy hired by the inn yesterday.

A young man gave him two taels of silver and asked him to come to the inn to find a beautiful young lady. He didn't need to send any messages, but just to see if the man was injured and how serious the injury was.

Last night, Wang Er checked every room under the pretext of delivering water, but he didn't find the young lady that person was talking about.

I had originally thought that after I woke up I would report back to the young master and get the remaining one or two taels of silver, and then the job would be done. I could take the two taels of silver and go out for a nice feast.

Who would have thought that the shopkeeper would call me to boil water before I even woke up.

"Wang Er, hurry up, the masters are waiting anxiously."

"I'm coming."

Wang Er fetched some hot water and carried it into Mu Yunting's room.

"Master, the water is here. Can I just add it to your tub?"

"Ah."

"After a tiring night, there's nothing more comfortable than taking a hot bath. Please soak for a while. If there's not enough hot water, call me and I'll add more."

"The change on the table is a reward."

Wang Er happily took the silver on the table, thanked him repeatedly, and left the room.

I ran into the shopkeeper head-on.

"Wang Er, you are a good boy, you are very skillful, work hard, this is a reward for you."

The shopkeeper said this as he stuffed ten copper coins into Wang Er's hand.

Wang Er was so happy. Although the waiters in the inn were a little tired, they made a lot of money.

He turned around and went back to the kitchen to continue chopping wood and boiling water. He wanted to serve those men well, and maybe he could even get a reward.

At this moment, Ying Shu was extremely anxious. He came to Xiaomian County to investigate the power that man had secretly cultivated, but unexpectedly met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the city gate.

So he revealed the news that the prince had come to Xiaomian County to Mei Runian, also wanting to use the prince to eliminate that man's power.

He didn't know what leverage that man had over his sister, he only knew that he couldn't be at ease as the Crown Princess unless he got rid of his sister.

As for Xia Qingyan, he didn't expect that the prince would keep her by his side. He thought that the relationship between the two should be very good.

He thought he didn't have to worry about her anymore, but yesterday he saw Xia Qingyan fall off the horse.

Although he knew that he saw the prince carrying her away with his own eyes, he still felt uneasy.

Yesterday he found someone to apply for the job of waiter at the inn, and wanted to ask the boy to help check whether her injuries were serious. He said he would get news from him this morning at the latest, but it's already this late and the boy hasn't come yet.

No, he couldn't wait any longer. Even if the inn was full of the prince's men, he had to go in and take a look.

With Ye Yin around, he must be careful.

He didn't dare sneak in, so he had to pretend to be a guest staying in the hotel and enter through the main door.

"Sir, do you want to be a top-notch person or stay in a hotel?"

"Stay at the hotel."

"Oh, you have arrived at the right time. There is one room left on the second floor. Please follow me."

Ying Shu followed the shopkeeper up to the second floor, walked to the innermost room, and pushed the door open.

As soon as he stepped into the room, Wang Er came upstairs with a bucket of hot water to bring him hot water.

This is the ninth hot water, I’m so tired!

Wang Er knocked on Falcon's door and poured a full bucket of hot water into the bathtub.

"Sir, I've prepared the water for you. It's just the right temperature. Come in and try it."

Falcon casually threw a string of copper coins to Wang Er and began to take off his clothes.

Liefeng, who lived in the same room with him, could no longer hold back his curiosity. After the waiter left, he pulled a stool and sat next to the bathtub.

Falcon paused as he untied the belt of his underwear, "What are you doing?"

"Tell me, what did you do last night? Why are you all soaked?"

Falcon rolled his eyes at him and replied, "You've forgotten the rules. Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about."

"If I hadn't been waiting for Ying Shu last night, I would have gone with you. We are just this group of people, and the master wouldn't be on guard against me, so why are you on guard against me?"

Liefeng looked at Falcon with a wronged expression.

"Brother, just tell me. If you don't tell me, I won't be able to sleep."

Who wouldn't be curious? Not only were they all soaking wet, but they also looked resentful. They wanted to take a bath as soon as they came back. This was so weird.

The two of them trained together since they were young, and when they grew up, they were sent together to serve as secret guards for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. They were so close that they could even wear the same pants.

But no matter how good a brother Falcon is, he doesn't want to say why he went into the water last night.

"What's there to be curious about? Last night, the masters went boating on the lake. To protect the masters, the brothers all went into the water and hid under the boat. They stayed in the water for half the night and came back today to take a hot bath."

"It's that simple?"

"Yes, it's that simple, go to bed."

Liefeng stood up angrily and walked towards his bed, then he heard Falcon speak again, "By the way, let me tell you something. The master and the mistress consummated their marriage last night. Also, you should stay away from the mistress in the future."

"Hmm? You said that Master and Madam were together last night...how did you know? Did you peek? Did all of you eavesdrop? Did His Highness catch you and punish you to go into the water? Hahaha, I said you all looked unhappy!"

The falcon sank its head into the water and said, "Fuck, why are you talking so much!"

Ying Shu asked the shopkeeper for a pot of hot tea, and the shopkeeper called Wang Er as soon as he went out. Wang Er was happy that he had earned the reward money by delivering hot water today, but when he heard that someone wanted hot water, he hurried back to the kitchen.

The two of them said in unison when a pot of hot water was brought to Ying Shu's room.

"It's you."

"It's you."

"Where is the information I paid you to find out?"

"Hey, sir, I was busy all night last night trying to get some information. Guess what happened?"

Ying Shu frowned slightly, "What's the matter?"

"The woman you mentioned was not in the inn last night. She was carried back by her husband early this morning. Her leg must have been badly injured. Her husband didn't even let her walk and carried her all the way back to her room."

Ying Shu took out a piece of silver from his pocket and slapped it on the table, "Go and see if her husband is there. If not, tell me."

A piece of silver looked like it was worth at least two taels, and Wang Er was delighted. Wasn't this just giving him silver for free? He had just delivered bath water to the young lady's man, and the man was still taking a bath.

"Sir, please wait a moment. I will go check it out."

Wang Er grabbed the silver and ran out.

After pretending to walk around outside for a while, Wang Er brought back the news to Ying Shu that the young lady's man was not in the room.

Ying Shu jumped up from the chair and walked out, but suddenly stopped in front of the door.

He turned to look at Wang Er and said in a deep voice, "Take off your clothes."

Ah? I don't want to earn this money.

Wang Er clutched his clothes tightly and shook his head like a rattle.

Ying Shu seemed not to notice the horror in his eyes. "Change your clothes with me. I'll go serve tea to the guests. You stay in my room."

After his explanation, Wang Er realized that he wanted to pretend to be a waiter at the inn.

"Sir, let's make a deal. If you get caught, don't give me away."
