After turning around for a long time, they didn't find any clues about Li Yixin and them, so Duanmu Doll and Chen Junyi could only go home.
Back to the inn, it was time to finish eating, so the inn was very lively, the guests were busy eating, and the shopkeeper was busy greeting the guests, with a festive face.
The two of them stood at the door of the inn, thinking about where to enter this inn, there were too many people, they couldn't get in, this place was many times more prosperous than the inn in their Xieyang country.
Just as they stood for a while, a shopkeeper hurriedly squeezed out of the customer group, saluted them courteously, smiled all over his face, and asked respectfully: "The two guest officers are back, what do you want to eat for dinner?" Do you eat downstairs or let the little one take you upstairs? ”
was about to answer, but the innkeeper behind the counter suddenly came out of it, and then pushed away the crowd of customers to come to them.
Chen Junyi naturally saw it, so his eyes fell on the shopkeeper.
This man was about forty or fifty years old, about the same height as a Duanmu doll, with a kind face, a round face, and thick earlobes.
Wearing a silk shirt, there is a little bright light at night, and there is a small pearl and jade abacus pinned to the waist, the jade is crystal clear, pure and flawless, and it is the best ancient jade at a glance, and it is carried on the body, in the place of the wallet, which means that the wealth is rolling in, and with the "crackling" sound of the abacus, the gold and silver jewelry fell into the money bag next to him.
Seeing the shopkeeper come out, the shopkeeper immediately nodded and smiled, waiting for the shopkeeper's orders.
The shopkeeper just smiled kindly at Chen Junyi, and then waved his hand to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper naturally understood, and then turned around and went busy, and after a while, he couldn't see him.
When the shopkeeper left, his hand was taken out from behind him, and when they looked at the wooden doll, it turned out to be an account book, and when they were puzzled, the shopkeeper smiled and opened his mouth.
"The girl in white who came with you earlier has had her supper, and she said she had not brought out with her, saying that she was with you, and that she would give it to you when you returned."
As he spoke, he went to the ledger, turned a few pages, and then stopped, Duanmu frowned, and asked, "Didn't we give us the silver before, enough for us to live here for three or five days, why is it so fast?" ”
She subconsciously thought that this was a black shop, and was about to ask something more but saw the shopkeeper pointing to the account book and said seriously: "We have a detailed record of your expenses here, and it is true that your money has been spent, and the store is small and thin." ”
Chen Junyi snorted coldly in his heart, knowing what this shopkeeper meant, if there is no money to give, then let them leave quickly, don't hinder him from doing business.
Thinking in his heart, he looked at this inn seriously, the business here is indeed very good, and he is now puzzled, if it is really a black shop, then how can there be such a good sound.
Then he asked: "We will make up for you how much you need, but we have already said before, how can this silver tael be spent so quickly?" ”
Seeing that they were still puzzled, he took control of them closer, and then pointed to the account book and said, "This is your consumption account, if you are not at ease, you can take a look at it yourself." ”
He was not angry or annoyed, but presented the account book to Chen Junyi with both hands, and then stood quietly aside, waiting for their orders.
Chen Junyi took it suspiciously, this account book is very heavy, wide and yellow, it should be some years.
Both of them glanced at the shopkeeper next to them, and then their eyes fell on the account books.
After a casual glance, both of them were stunned and looked at each other.
There is a page of accounts about them, which is densely filled with the names of the dishes, as well as the prices.
Almond bergamot, dragon and phoenix Chengxiang, imperial tofu, jujube mud cake, mountain delicacies dragon buds, jade rabbit cabbage
I wrote such dishes all night, and I flipped to the front to find the consumption accounts of the two of them.
Chen Junyi asked curiously while returning the account book to the shopkeeper: "We have consumed so much today, and we haven't ordered these dishes yet." ”
As the princesses and concubines of the Xieyang Kingdom, they are naturally not poor, but they can't consume indiscriminately, and for Chen Junyi, he can't rub sand in his eyes, especially a huge pebble like now.
The shopkeeper half-bent his body and respectfully took the account, and then replied: "The two guest officers did not order these dishes, but these dishes are indeed consumed by you. ”
Duanmu Doll didn't speak, but after reading the accounts, she remembered what the shopkeeper said before, and then asked uncertainly: "Do you mean that the girl in white ordered it?" ”
Before the shopkeeper's nod was confirmed, Chen Junyi next to him smiled, and then retorted: "I can't eat so much for a seven-foot man, the girl in white is a weak woman like you, no"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw the shopkeeper nod his head without saying a word and affirmatively, and a very strange look suddenly appeared on his face.
Chen Junyi stopped his words and opened his mouth wide, and asked in disbelief, "It was really the girl in white who ate it alone." ”
After getting the affirmation of the shopkeeper, Duanmu Doll felt incredible, it stands to reason that these dishes are enough for six or seven people to eat, and the girl in white finished eating alone, and they didn't believe anything.
"Could it be that the girl in white brought someone here?"
The two looked at each other, and when they heard them say this, the shopkeeper still shook his head silently and said slowly, with some incredible meaning in his tone.
"We sent the dishes she ordered directly to her room, and at first I thought it was for that, and I thought you had some kind of friend here.
I didn't care much and sent the food to me, but then I heard the shopkeeper secretly tell me that there was no one else in her room, and you weren't there, so I wondered in my heart, what she was doing with so many dishes by herself, isn't it a waste, so I asked the shopkeeper to take the opportunity to serve the food to keep a snack.
There was no one in her room until the dishes were served, and we didn't want to ask, and you weren't there, but the shopkeeper came back and told me that she was eating alone in the room, and there was no one else in it.
I didn't believe it when I looked at the empty dishes and bowls they received, and I also went to take a sneak look at it when I found an opportunity, ah, she was really the only one eating in the room, and it really thundered me, I have been waiting here for you to come back, just to tell you about it.
I've seen strong men who can eat very well, but I've never seen a weak woman so good at eating. ”
The shopkeeper told them in detail, and the two looked at each other and fell silent, he thought they didn't believe it, and then he said, "If you don't believe it, you can go and ask the girl in white to see if I'm lying."
Halfway through his words, he stopped, and then asked incredulously, "No, you lived in my inn with the girl in white, how could you not know?!" ”
Seeing the shopkeeper's question, Duanmu Doll replied: "The day before yesterday, we met this girl in white on the way to Dong Zheng Guk, and when we saw that she was lonely, we asked her, and it turned out that she also wanted to come to Dong Zheng Guo, so I brought her by the way, and when I saw that she had no place to stay, I asked her to join us." ”
After listening to what she said, the shopkeeper was thoughtful, and only after half a sound did he ask, "You are from the Xieyang Kingdom." ”
Duanmu Doll nodded, and was about to say something when she saw Chen Junyi open her mouth, she hurriedly shut up and listened to him.
"We are indeed from the country of Xieyang, and I heard that Dongzheng country is more prosperous than Xieyang country, so we husband and wife came to take a look. At the same time, there are too many things lacking in the country of Xieyang, and our husband and wife plan to go back to the country of Xieyang with good things after visiting the Dongzheng country, one can leave a souvenir, and the other can also sell some silver taels to make a living. ”
"That's right."
The Duanmu doll next to him agreed, and then said: "We went around for an afternoon, and we couldn't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, and I still asked passers-by when I came back, otherwise I might not be able to find it." ”
"Tomorrow, I'll ask the shopkeeper to bring you a map, you can see at a glance, today is a little busy, you two take care of it."
The words were made clear, and everyone had no burden in their hearts, and the shopkeeper became as kind as before.
Hearing him say this, Duanmu Doll smiled happily, hurriedly bowed her head politely, and said, "Then there is a shopkeeper Lao." ”
After the three of them finished speaking, Chen Junyi took out a silver ingot from his waist, and then said politely: "Just now our husband and wife misunderstood the shopkeeper, and please don't go to the shopkeeper, here the silver two take it first, if it is not enough, our husband and wife will think of a way." ”
When they came out, they changed into the dress of a country couple, and Chen Junyi didn't even bring a long sword, just for fear of attracting attention.
The shopkeeper accepted it, and then said politely: "Then disturb the two, what do you want to eat tonight, I will ask the shopkeeper to send the two of you to the room." ”
"Well, feel free, noon is good, just follow noon, save trouble."
Chen Junyi saluted politely, and now that the words have been spoken, they still think that this shopkeeper is very good.
"Okay, let's go back to the room to rest first, and the food will be delivered in a while."
Chen Junyi pulled the Duanmu doll and was about to leave, and the shopkeeper also went to the counter, walked two steps and suddenly stopped, thought about it and turned back to Chen Junyi and reminded them: "The two guest officers are still careful of the girl in white, this store has been open for decades, and it is the first time to encounter such a strange thing. ”
Facing the shopkeeper's kind reminder, Chen Junyi and Duanmu Doll nodded, and then continued to hold hands and walk upstairs to the inn.
The sound of the reminder drowned out the noise of the inn, but they heard it, and the shopkeeper looked down and shook his head wryly, and then went to the counter, wondering if he was worrying too much. (To be continued.) )
