Chapter 261: Forest Inn
Before going to bed, Shen Jiahe forgot to tell Pei Yuan that she was living with Bai Ying today, but now that she was asleep, looking at Pei Yuan who walked in, Bai Ying really couldn't open her mouth to let her master go out, so she blessed her body: "Madam is asleep now, and the slave and maid will retire." ”
There was still a light downstairs, but there were no more guests coming to the door, Bai Ying asked the shopkeeper for a pot of tea, and sat in the lobby looking at the moonlight outside the window to taste tea alone.
But the boat was tiring, so it couldn't last long, and after a while, she lay sleepy on the table, and the shopkeeper pushed her in a daze: "Girl? We're going to turn off the lights, so go back to your house and go to sleep. ”
Bai Ying was also embarrassed to tell others that she had nowhere to go, so she could only stand up and go upstairs to walk in the corridor to pass the sleepiness, but after a while, she felt that her legs were soft and her feet were weak, so she simply leaned on the door frame and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, but she didn't expect that she would fall asleep directly like this.
Liuyu waited for Pei Yuan in the house, but he didn't see him come in for a long time, so he simply slept first, and woke up after a short sleep to see that the bed next to him was still empty, so he felt that something was wrong, so he got up and put on his coat and went out to look for it, but he didn't expect to see Bai Ying who was asleep on the ground as soon as he opened the door.
You don't need to ask to know that the master must have slept inside, but this stupid girl didn't say a word, and went to the room with Bai Ying in distress.
He looked at the two beds in the room, and after a long struggle, he still carried his futon out of the room, and spread the futon to the door of the two rooms, which was regarded as a vigil by the way.
The next morning, before dawn, the inn's shopkeeper came out to boil water, and the movement woke up the wanderer who was sleeping outside the house, he quickly put away the bedding again, tiptoed into the house and put the things back in order.
After going out, he couldn't help but sneeze, rubbed his nose, worried about waking Bai Ying and them, so he hurriedly covered his nose and went downstairs to find the shopkeeper to ask for ginger tea.
When Shen Jiahe woke up, it was already dawn, she was awakened by the weight on her body, but when she opened her eyes, she saw that Pei Yuan had pressed her arm on her body.
"How are you sleeping here? What about Bai Ying? Shen Jiahe pushed Pei Yuan and asked, "Shouldn't the two of us sleep in the same room last night?" ”
Pei Yuan turned over and got off the bed, "I forgot that there were only two rooms last night, and I didn't say anything when I saw Bai Ying go out, but I forgot about it at the moment." ”
Shen Jiahe glared at him helplessly, and hurriedly pushed open the door to look, not wanting to see Bai Ying, but seeing Liuyu lying on the table and dozing off downstairs.
Shen Jiahe hurriedly pushed the door next door to look, and saw that Bai Ying had already washed inside, Bai Ying looked at her suspiciously: "What's wrong?" ”
Shen Jiahe didn't want to ask her if she and Liuyu slept in the same room last night, but thinking that the two children were originally intended by Lang Youqing's concubine, he smiled and said, "It's okay, I just called you down for breakfast." ”
Bai Ying was also a little stunned when she woke up, and the bed on the other bed was neatly made, not like someone had slept at all, but she was embarrassed to ask Shen Jiahe.
While eating breakfast, Bai Ying picked up a bowl of black rice porridge, covered her face, and then whispered to Liuyu next to her: "What was the situation last night, where did you sleep last night?" ”
Liuyu looked up and saw that Pei Yuan and the others didn't pay attention to him, so he whispered to Bai Ying honestly: "How can you be cold outside, I'll be fine." ”
Bai Ying only felt that the black rice porridge in this store was so sweet, and it was warm and warm when she drank it, and couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips: "Thank you!" ”
After breakfast, Bai Ying followed Liuyu to settle the bill, and the shopkeeper dialed the abacus and said with a smile: "A total of one or two silver." ”
Then he saw Liuyu take out the silver from the money bag and said: "Little brother, I'm afraid it's not okay to only drink ginger tea for wind and cold, there are some pills for treating wind and cold here, just bring them to you." ”
Liuyu's face turned red and was about to stop the shopkeeper from speaking, but Bai Ying had already opened his mouth to ask, "Wind cold?" When was this? ”
"It's just two sneezes, don't listen to the shopkeeper's exaggeration." Liuyu gave the shopkeeper a look, hoping that he would not dismantle the stage again.
"Willing!" Bai Ying glared at him, and hurriedly said to the shopkeeper, "You gave me the pill, thank you shopkeeper, I will keep an eye on him to take the medicine." ”
Bai Ying had to watch Liuyu take the medicine first before letting him go, and Liuying had to ask the shopkeeper for another cup of warm water and obediently used the medicine in front of Bai Ying, he touched his nose and said with a smile: "Now you can rest assured." ”
The four of them finally walked out of the inn, and beyond that was a vast forest, not the miasma forest in front of Yiluo Pavilion.
The shopkeeper said that there was an inn inside, which was built very distinctively, and it could be regarded as a scenic spot in this area, and Shen Jiahe was busy pulling Pei Yuan and them to go in to find out.
Walking in to the imaginary depression, the air inside is fresh, and you can hear the melodious birdsong from time to time, Shen Jiahe got off the carriage, and a few people walked slowly in the forest together.
There were a lot of unknown trees in it, Shen Jiahe looked up at the towering canopy, and said to himself, "They should all be very old." ”
Pei Yuan nodded: "At least it should be more than a hundred years." ”
The sunlight is projected from the gaps in the leaves, the stars are projected on the clothes, and on the grass, like a group of dancing elves, Shen Jiahe has some regrets: "It's a pity that I didn't bring the guqin, otherwise it would be very suitable to play a song here." ”
Seeing that they had been delayed in the forest for most of the day, and it was almost time for lunch, Pei Yuan and the others had to put away their leisure mood and rush to the Forest Inn.
The route was given by the innkeeper last night, according to the instructions it is not difficult to find, there are special receptionists at the door, directly come up to take the reins in the hands of Liuyu, and said with a smile: "A few people are going to live in the hotel, then you have chosen the right place, we not only live here comfortably, the food is also first-class." ”
Shen Jiahe saw that he looked very much like the doorman in a modern hotel, the signboard at the door was in the old style, and it looked different from the inns in other places, and he couldn't help but wonder where the shopkeeper here was sacred.
Entering the lobby of the Forest Inn, everyone seemed to have entered a small forest again, not only surrounded by green plants and flowers, but also the tables, chairs and benches were original.
But there was no popularity, a woman with a gesture full of charm came out with a teapot twisting her waist, and greeted a few people: "You are still the first batch of guests today, and there are not many people staying in the hotel in the past two days, otherwise I really don't have time to entertain a few distinguished guests in person." ”
Shen Jiahe smiled, knowing that this was the proprietress of the house, "You are really chic here, the proprietress is a clever person at a glance." ”
The proprietress smiled and made tea for a few people: "Hey, it's still the light of this forest, if there is no such a good place, we can't think of such a shop." ”
"This tea is so fragrant! Compare...... It's better to drink at home. Liuyu stuck out her tongue, but fortunately she didn't miss her mouth.
Shen Jiahe nodded: "It does taste much better than the brewed at home, the tea is fragrant but not astringent, and the color of the tea soup is also clear, I don't know what kind of tea the proprietress uses?" ”
"It's the common dragon well, yellow buds, melon slices, etc., but this tea is good thanks to the water we have here." The proprietress smiled and explained, "The water here is different from the water outside, and there is a small spring at the very edge of this forest. ”
After drinking tea, Shen Jiahe walked around the lobby, looked up at the branches that came in from the window, and saw that they were all extended outside, and couldn't help but wonder: "Are these all true?" Did it grow on the outside? ”
The proprietress pointed to the thick branches held by a few people under the window, and said with a smile: "You see, these are all branches from the outside, when we chose a site here, we took a fancy to a vacant land here, but there are still some branches and leaves in the way, but we are reluctant to cut them down, so they are retained, the longer they grow, the more lush, but it has become a feature." ”
"There's a nice view up there, I'll take you to see it." The proprietress took a few people upstairs to visit, and by the way, she asked the young man to open a room for a few people.
Bai Ying and Liuyu took the opportunity to move their salutes upstairs, and then followed Shen Jiahe to wander upstairs.
Shen Jiahe was so carried away that there were not only all kinds of flowers and plants upstairs that she had never seen, but also bird cages hanging everywhere, several of which were varieties she had never seen, and these birds were almost extinct in the next generation.
In addition, the proprietress also raised a lot of small animals, rabbits, monkeys are common, as well as small squirrels and a few foxes with pure fur!
Shen Jiahe was itchy to see, she wanted to expand her own zoo now, and hurriedly asked the proprietress: "Are all the animals you have here for sale?" ”
The proprietress shook her head, and Shen Jiahe suddenly had a bitter face: "Ah, that's a pity, I really like your little animals here." ”
The proprietress smiled: "Although these are not sold, I can give them to you, but there are conditions!" ”
"What conditions? Speak up, talk fast! Shen Jiahe couldn't wait.
The proprietress took Shen Jiahe to her backyard, pointed to the plum blossom pile in the yard and said, "Madame, did you see it?" As long as you win against me on this plum blossom pile, you can take everything here with you. ”
Plum blossom piles of different heights, the gap between each one is quite large, and it takes not only good kung fu to work on it, but also a strong balance.
However, Shen Jiahe was not afraid at all, and immediately responded with all his strengths.
The proprietress took the lead in flying forward and landed steadily on the other side of the plum blossom pile, although Shen Jiahe did not have light skills and couldn't make such a dazzling opening, but he still couldn't lose in momentum.
She approached the end of the plum blossom pile, found the nearest plum blossom pile, raised her foot on the plum blossom pile next to her, and landed on the plum blossom pile with one foot.
The proprietress smiled and praised: "Madame's work is not good. ”
"Each other, each other." Shen Jiahe relaxed and looked at the other side calmly, "Make a move, boss lady." ”
As soon as the words fell, the other party waved over, Shen Jiahe didn't expect the other party to act so fast, and he couldn't backhand for a while, so he could only jump over the plum blossom pile next to him to avoid this move.
The proprietress followed closely, Shen Jiahe began to take the call, her specialty is hand-to-hand combat, this kind of competition on the plum blossom pile is actually a bit of a loss, plus the proprietress also has the blessing of light skills, Shen Jiahe is relatively even more at a loss.
However, she saw the opportunity and did not give the boss a chance to fly, and pressed people directly to the center of the plum blossom pile, giving her a chance to show her hand-to-hand combat skills.
It took a little effort, but in the end she still won, the proprietress fell to the ground first, and arched her hand towards Shen Jiahe: "Madame is very skilled, I am willing to bow down." ”
"It's me who is opportunistic, and the boss lady agrees!" Shen Jiahe jumped down, Pei Yuan was waiting next to him early in the morning, and hugged the person directly at the moment.
The proprietress looked at the picture of the two looking at each other and smiling, and couldn't help but pull the corners of her mouth, it seems that the relationship is very good, otherwise there would not be such a good tacit understanding.
Shen Jiahe likes little squirrels and foxes very much, but he thinks that it is not easy to bring such wild animals back, so he finally picks a yellow bird.
She turned her head to look at the other one, and looked at the proprietress with a blank eye: "Are they a pair?" ”
The proprietress couldn't see her thoughts, and laughed at the moment: "It's a pair, I'll give it to you." ”
Seeing that Shen Jiahe and the proprietress were chatting happily, Pei Yuan took Liuzhen to the room, it was not far from Yiluo Pavilion, it was time to report to Yiluo Pavilion.
