Chapter 43: Lu Ming's Home
Listening to this kid calling himself one by one, Chen Wen was quite embarrassed.
Perhaps in his opinion, he has a connection with the people of the Hou Mansion, and his status is definitely not ordinary.
But in fact, the Hou Mansion didn't take himself seriously at all, otherwise, how could he just find a beggar to lead the way.
Chen Wen suddenly reacted.
From this point of view, Princess Qingqing may not have any status in the Hou Mansion.
If she wants to use the power of the Hou Mansion to harm herself, it shouldn't be that simple.
And without the help of the Hou Mansion......
Chen Wen really didn't take that little girl in his eyes.
Thinking of this, Chen Wen's heart was also a little calmer.
"My lord, where are you staying tonight?"
"I am very familiar with the inn in Gongsun City, as long as you name it, I can take you to find it. Lu Ming followed behind and said to Chen Wen.
"Just find an inn. ”
Chen Wen didn't have any requirements for where he lived.
Deal with it casually for one night, wait until tomorrow morning, and get out of here.
"Okay!"
Lu Ming took Chen Wen with him, and soon, he came to a five- or six-story building.
Although Gongsun City is extremely prosperous, this building still stands out in the city.
"Spring Rain Building!"
Chen Wen looked at the door number and read it in a low voice.
"This is our Gongsun City...... No, it should be our Datang, the most famous restaurant!" Lu Ming said.
Chen Wen nodded and walked in directly.
The interior of the Spring Rain Building is very quiet and full of antique charm.
"Guest officer, do you want to stay in a hotel or eat?"
At the counter, a beautiful woman asked with a smile.
"Stay. ”
Chen Wen said directly.
"Okay, you can pick these rooms!"
The woman said, gesturing to the small wooden signs behind her.
This spring rain building is really exquisite, and each room has its own signature and is carved on a wooden plaque.
Of course, in addition to the name, there is also the price.
Chen Wen glanced at it.
The cheapest room, for one night, actually costs 1,000 taels of silver......
"That's too expensive, isn't it?"
Chen Wen's face turned dark and he complained in a low voice.
"I'm really sorry, our Chunyu Building, has always been this price, has never changed! If you feel that the price is unacceptable, you can go to the restaurant next door to live, over there, it is cheaper. ”
The counter lady said with a smile.
Chen Wen coughed dryly twice, and reluctantly withdrew from the Spring Rain Building.
It's not that he can't afford it, it's that he doesn't have to.
The body is full of calculations, and it is only a thousand taels of silver.
After that, there are many more places where you need to use money.
Chen Wen can't use all his net worth to live in a restaurant for one night, right?
"My lord?" Lu Ming, who was waiting at the door, couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw Chen Wen walking out.
"Well, I don't like the environment here, so let's change the place. ”
Chen Wen said with a red face and a heartbeat.
Lu Ming nodded: "There are several inns that are also good." ”
Subsequently, Chen Wen followed Lu Ming and visited all the more high-grade restaurants in Gongsun City.
Compared with Chunyu Building, the prices of these restaurants are indeed much lower.
But that's relative to the Spring Rain Building.
It may be that Lu Ming, this kid, really thinks of himself as a big man.
The restaurant that I took myself to, the lowest price, also cost three hundred taels of silver a night.
"It seems that no matter what the world is, if you don't have money, it's all hard. ”
Walking out of a restaurant again, Chen Wen could only sigh helplessly.
At this time, the time has come.
The originally bustling streets have also become deserted.
"Your Excellency...... Aren't these hotels to your liking?"
"Ahem, I don't know what people think now, all the restaurants are decorated with golden, cheesy, too cheesy. ”
The embarrassed Chen Wen could only find a reason.
You can't lose face in front of a child.
"It's hard to find a place that's not glittering. Lu Ming frowned and thought for a long time.
"Where do you stay? Otherwise, I'll go and stay with you for the night, and I'll give you ten taels of silver." Chen Wen asked.
"Ten taels of silver? really?"
Lu Ming's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Chen Wen in disbelief.
"Is it necessary for me to lie to you?" Chen Wen shook his head and asked, after speaking, he took out a silver ticket of ten taels and threw it to Lu Ming.
"But, but I'm a little dirty. ”
"It's fine. ”
Chen Wen waved his hand.
If it weren't for the closure of Gongsun City at night and the ban on leaving, it would have left a long time ago.
He didn't really want to sleep, he just found a place to spend the night.
As for whether it is dirty or not, Chen Wen is not such a particular person.
"Alright, my lord, come with me. ”
Lu Ming carefully put the silver ticket in his pocket and led the way ahead.
I walked for a full hour.
From the center of Gongsun City, walk all the way to the city wall to the south.
Chen Wen arrived at the place.
"My lord, this is where I live. Lu Ming smiled awkwardly and said to Chen Wen.
A house is indeed a house.
But I don't know how long it has been abandoned.
The tiles on the beams of the house fell to pieces, and the walls everywhere were even more damaged.
Lu Ming also knew that sleeping in such a place for one night, let alone giving ten taels of silver, no one would necessarily want to live if he paid for it.
"Yes, that's good. ”
Chen Wen nodded.
Looking at Lu Ming's appearance, he can probably know what the situation of this kid is.
With that, Chen Wen stepped into the house.
Moonlight shone in through the broken roof.
Even late at night, you can see the furnishings in the house.
An old table with a chair next to it.
There is also a bed, which is all the furniture inside.
"Sister, sister, get up quickly, a noble person has arrived at our house!"
After Lu Ming followed Chen Wen in, he opened his mouth and shouted loudly.
"Ahem......"
Two coughs rang out.
Later, Chen Wen saw that there was a girl lying on the bed.
Looking at the age, it should be seventeen or eighteen years old.
It's just that his face is sallow, his mouth is white, and he looks extremely thin.
"Nobleman, Xiao Ming, don't be deceived. The girl's voice was weak.
"How can it be, this is a guest of the Hou Mansion, who gave me ten taels of silver and said that he would stay at our house for one night. ”
"Ten taels of silver?"
When the girl heard this, she was taken aback.
"Give the bed to the nobleman to sleep in, and I will lay the floor for you. ”
As Lu Ming spoke, he familiarly took out a mattress from under the bed and spread it on the ground.
And the girl also got up from the bed with difficulty.
"Don't, you're so sick, just fall asleep. ”
Chen Wen said hurriedly.
"The nobleman gave us silver, and he should let you sleep in a bed. The girl squeezed out a smile.
"Lu Ming, what kind of floor do you kid make, let your sister lie down well, otherwise, the silver will not be given to you. Chen Wen turned his head to Lu Ming and said.
