Chapter 147: Sharing a Bed? (a)
If the carriage is at the speed of the morning, it will be able to reach Laogu Town around dark, but because Bai Yi ordered that he could not travel quickly in the afternoon, it was already the middle of the moon when he really arrived at the town. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The night in the town is not as bright as the capital, it is as bright as day, the merchants on both sides of the street have closed early, and Jian Ping drove the car for a while to find an inn.
The innkeeper was dozing off on the counter, and was pushed, and he raised his head a little unhappily after arguing with a sweet dream, and saw that the two sons led by him were outstanding, brightly dressed, and they woke up at once.
Jian Ping saw people wake up and said, "Shopkeeper, we want a few upper rooms, and some wine and food, do you have a place to place a carriage in this inn?" Someone go and bring in the carriage at the door. So saying, he gave him a mina.
"A few guest officers are really embarrassed, there is only a shop left in the small shop at the moment, and there is no room left." When the shopkeeper saw that the man was richly dressed and generous, he wanted to do their business, and then said, "But I can make room for you, I wonder what you think?" ”
It doesn't matter if Jian Ping and Changge sleep in the bunk, there is only one upper room, and Lin Bining and Bai Yi can only live in one room.
Bai Yi thought that this was arranged by Xiyun, and felt that this was a bit too much, and his face did not show it at all, he still looked at Lin Bining with a smile, and said, "It's okay for me, what do you think, Changru?" ”
Changge knew Lin Bining's identity, looked at Bai Yi, remembered Lin Changru's earlier explanation, pulled her sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Young master, you live in a room with Bai Gongzi, isn't it good?" ”
Lin Bining also knew that it was not good for a lonely man and a widow to live in the same room, and she was afraid that no one would dare to marry her in the future, but it seemed that there was only one inn in the town, and it would not be possible if she didn't live here. She whispered to Changge: "Needless to say, I have my own measure." ”
Then he looked at Bai Yi casually and said with a smile: "You and I are both men, so it's okay to live in one room." ”
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly smiled and said, "Those few will go to the room with me first, and the wine and food will be good later." Then he turned and ordered one of the runners to set up their wagon.
As soon as Lin Bining entered the room, she saw the big bed, and suddenly remembered that she had forgotten a very important thing, she had to take off her shoes when she slept, and she was still wearing embroidered shoes on her feet, so she had to show her stuffing!
Bai Yi asked Jian Ping and Changge to rest by themselves, and told the shopkeeper to deliver the food to the room. When they were all gone, he closed the door and saw Lin Bining sitting on a stool, her hand constantly turning the cup, and she didn't even know that the tea was spilled on the table.
Bai Yi knew that she was worried about waiting to sleep, after all, she was a woman, and it was really difficult for her to let her live in the same room and sleep in a bed with her. This time is different from the last time she couldn't move at the bottom of the well, she must be scared, right?
Lin Bining was absent-minded when she was eating, and after eating, she cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and said, "I'll return these to the shopkeeper, Yunxian, you can sleep first." Without waiting for Bai Yi to speak, he fled in a hurry.
Bai Yi sighed, he prides himself on being a decent gentleman, even if he sleeps in a bed, he won't do anything to her, he didn't expect the other party to be so afraid of him.
Seeing that Lin Bining had personally sent the dishes and chopsticks back, the shopkeeper hurriedly took them and said with a smile: "Oh, how can these be sent down by the guest officer!" ”
"It's okay, it's a gesture." Lin Bining smiled and asked again without giving up, "The shopkeeper, in addition to the upper room, is there another single room, it doesn't matter if the condition is almost there." ”
"I'm sorry, this time is the time to cut paulownia wood, and there are many foreign luthiers in the town, and there are really no spare rooms. It was your upper room, which was also let out by a talkative guest who shared it with his companions. The shopkeeper said.
Although this answer was expected by Lin Bining, she was still disappointed.
After taking one step at a time, Lin Bining decided to go back and pretended to be extremely tired, without washing her feet or taking off her shoes, she lay down directly on the bed and wrapped herself in a quilt, so that she should be able to fool the past.
When Lin Bining rubbed back to the room, opened the door and found that Bai Yi was not in the house, he touched his chin strangely, and found a note on the table, which read, "If you have something to leave for a while, you don't have to wait for me to sleep first", before he let out a long spit. Tied the door, took advantage of Bai Yi's absence to quickly wash his feet, put on his shoes again, and then pulled out the door bolt.
Knowing that it was two people living, the shopkeeper kindly sent another quilt. In this way, she can also justifiably occupy a quilt. Before going to bed, Lin Bining wiped her shoes with a wet handkerchief, did not take off any of her clothes, and then wrapped herself tightly with a quilt. After closing her eyes and lying down for a while, still uneasy, she got up again, took out two headbands from the package, and tied her shoes firmly to her feet in a twisting and winding way, and then she lay down again satisfied.
Bai Yi couldn't help but be angry and funny when he saw Lin Bi avoiding him like a beast, and when he went out and heard the conversation between the shopkeeper and her, he didn't know how much silver Xiyun gave the shopkeeper, and his tone was really tight. Afraid that Lin Bining would not sleep at night, she went back and wrote a note, saw her in the dark and went back to her room, planning to go down and ask the shopkeeper to arrange another room.
The shopkeeper listened to his question, and said helplessly: "Guest officer, I have already told you that there is no extra room in the shop, why don't you believe it?" I've asked this for the third time! ”
Bai Yi saw that he didn't look like he was lying, and asked, "Then have you ever seen a man in red before, who is extremely good-looking, but a little cold." ”
The shopkeeper recalled it carefully and shook his head: "I have never seen it." ”
It turned out to be a coincidence, not an arrangement by Xiyun.
There was no extra room, so Bai Yi could only go back. The lights in the room were not extinguished, Bai Yi thought that Lin Bining had not rested, and pushed the door in, only to find that she had fallen asleep.
The whole person shrunk in the quilt, only one face was exposed, and her face was flushed, Bai Yi was worried that she would lose her breath if she was wrapped too tightly, so she gently spread the quilt for her. After a day in the carriage, she was so tired that Lin Bining slept very hard and was not woken up. When Bai Yi loosened the quilt on her lap, Lin Bining's shoes were exposed.
Bai Yi shook his head amusedly, and said softly: "No matter how tired you are, you should take off your shoes and sleep." ”
He grabbed his shoes and was about to take them off, but found that the shoes were strangely wrapped around the headbands.
Bai Yi's heart beat fiercely, he intuitively felt that this matter was unusual, should he untie the belt?
Since Lin Bining tied a headband, she naturally didn't want to be taken off her shoes. Even if she wouldn't know, if he untied his belt and took off her shoes, it would be against Lin Bining's wishes.
He couldn't untie the headband.
Bai Yi stuffed her feet back into the quilt, tucked the corners of the quilt and got up, standing motionless on the edge of the bed, unable to move her feet.
