Chapter 175: Is It a Black Shop?
readx;
The shopkeeper looked flustered and asked, "What's wrong with the girl?"
Ling Caiwei eased her mind and changed the topic: "I want to write a letter to my family, do you have pen and ink in your store?"
"Yes, yes. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" shopkeeper wiped the sweat on his face with the towel on his shoulder and said: "Girl, just write, our inn has a special little boy who is responsible for delivering letters, and it is guaranteed to be delivered on time." If the girl is in a hurry, she can send an urgent letter, but ......" he wanted to stop talking
"But what, it doesn't hurt to be straight. Ling Caiwei looked at the quilt folded on the bed and frowned.
The shopkeeper smiled: "But the price is more expensive than other places." I wonder what the girl wants?"
Ling Caiwei didn't have much silver on her, and she refused the burden that Xiaoxing was entrusted to her by Nan Ronglie. She didn't want to be favored by him anymore.
Therefore, it is better to be frugal when you go out.
"I don't think so, you can pay for five days with urgent money. But if you hurry, the letter will be delivered a day sooner at most. Ling Caiwei summed it up, if they received the letter at the normal time, if there was no delay, it would be no problem to arrive here in two days. There are also five days of back and forth. If she saves money, she can do something else, she has other plans.
She has nothing to do these days, just enough to make a few iron balls, the road to Qin is far away, I don't know what will happen on the way, it is always good to have an extra weapon for self-defense.
Moreover, she didn't bring out the fat powder of her disguise, and she couldn't easily go out and walk around with her true face. There were a lot of people staring at her along the way, and she didn't want to get into trouble for herself. So, I have to go to the fat powder shop to buy some disguised things and come back.
These are not small expenses that must be spent.
The shopkeeper prepared the four treasures of the study room for writing the letter according to her instructions, and went down to prepare dinner for Ling Caiwei.
When Ling Caiwei finished writing and sealing the letter, the shopkeeper knocked on the door again.
He stood at the door with an embarrassed face, and discussed with Ling Caiwei embarrassedly: "Girl, there is something to trouble you." ”
Ling Caiwei glanced at him and motioned for him to continue.
"This room was originally booked. I, I, I forgot for a while, and now people come to live in it, and they ask to live in this room. You see?"
Ling Caiwei glanced at this room and couldn't see anything special, except for the window against the back garden, there was nothing worth fighting about. Still, she asked, "What if I don't let me?"
The shopkeeper immediately collapsed his face and was about to cry: "Auntie, if you don't let me, I will pay double the money to others, and the shopkeeper may have to fire me." I have an eighty-year-old mother, a doll waiting to be fed, and my mother-in-law has run away with someone, and the whole family will rely on me to support me, if I ...... again."
He wanted to continue, but Ling Caiwei made a gesture in time to stop him.
No matter how she looked at him, he was a young doll, and he came out with a bunch of lies just to think that she pitied him and didn't embarrass him.
Anyway, she doesn't like the bed in this house, I really don't know why an inn has to bring a happy quilt to the guests.
It doesn't hurt to do it with the water.
"Then how are you going to place me?" Ling Caiwei asked him with an eyebrow.
When the shopkeeper heard that there was room for negotiation, he immediately smiled: "The girl is kind and kind-eyed, and the fairy is descending to earth, and she has the heart of a bodhisattva at a glance." I arranged a room for the girl that was better than that. Please come with me. ”
Ling Caiwei had nothing to do, took a letter she had just written, and followed her out of the room and walked to the other side of the corridor.
The more she walked, the more she felt that something was wrong, and the decoration here was obviously more luxurious than the other side. On the wall next to the door is a wooden sign with black letters on a red background, and it is full of Tianzi rooms.
"Wait
。 "She must have lived in a black shop. The price of the room here must also be "Tianzi". She can't afford it.
"Shopkeeper, you brought the wrong place, right? Just pick one with the same price as that room. I don't have the money to let me live here. "It's not so easy to pit my aunt and grandmother, if it's really a black shop, I will smash it for Tianxingdao.
The shopkeeper hurriedly explained: "Girl, don't worry, the price here is the same as the price over there, and I won't charge you a penny." There are also free meals. ”
Can there be such a good thing in the world? Ling Caiwei muttered even more in her heart.
"Are you shopkeepers planning to lose money and make money?" Ling Caiwei's tone was no longer the temperature just now, and it was all cold questioning.
The shopkeeper walked in front, his body trembled obviously, wiped his sweat again, and replied to her: "Don't make fun of the girl, our store is located in a remote location, and there are few people who come to stay in the store. You caught up today. Didn't you notice that there have been very few guests since you entered our inn?"
Ling Caiwei thought about it slightly, and sure enough, she didn't meet a few guests, and it was deserted everywhere. Only the figure she saw under the window surprised her.
She was hesitating to leave here, when the shopkeeper pushed open the door of a room at the end of the corridor, bowed his waist and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please: "Girl, please." ”
Ling Caiwei looked inside, and suddenly felt extremely warm and comfortable.
The Tianzi room is different. In the inner and outer suites, there is a small hall first, and there is a table of eight immortals in the middle of the hall. A large bouquet of gardenias is inserted in a jar of blue and white porcelain on the table, and the fragrance hits people.
Further inside is a bedroom, the sheets and quilts are all uniform sky blue satin, without any ornamentation, which makes people feel very refreshing at a glance.
There is also a small suite at the back of the bedroom, Ling Caiwei opened the curtain and saw that there was a screen with a beautiful bathing picture in front of her, and there was a bath bucket behind the screen, and next to the bath bucket was a clothes hanger, which was really meticulous and thoughtful.
She wanted to leave, but after looking at the tub she changed her mind. She hadn't taken a hot bath in a long time, and she really wanted to jump in and soak in a hot bath right now.
The shopkeeper saw her thoughts, and hurriedly asked, "Do you want hot water, girl?"
Ling Caiwei calmly stayed in the No. 1 room of Tianzi. Since the price remains the same, there are three meals a day, and the most important thing is that she can take a hot shower every day, what else is she not satisfied with.
With her current martial arts, no kind of black shop can hurt her in the slightest. She lived here and waited for her uncle to come.
However, the only thing she was worried about was the whereabouts of Master Mo Chenyan. In the letter, she roughly described what had happened in these days, especially begging Uncle Shi to find a way to find Mo Chenyan, if he didn't go back, leave a letter to him, the house was rented for a year, and he might go back to find her.
She handed the letter to the shopkeeper, and in addition to the cost of delivering the letter to him, she specially gave him a penny and told him to deliver it. The shopkeeper only charged the fee for delivering the letter, and confiscated the hanging money.
He brought the rice, which consisted of four dishes and one soup, duck strips, pigeon eggs, eight treasures of green vegetables, candied longan stuffing, and a bowl of bird's nest porridge. Ling Caiwei was shocked, these dishes were not something that ordinary people could eat.
Isn't this free dinner too luxurious? The shopkeeper doesn't want to make money?
Or is there something else going on in this matter?
