Chapter 287: Out of Reach

"What the prince said is right, let's wait until tomorrow."

Xue Ping has already found an inn, and he doesn't know why. There is only one inn in this village, I don't know if it's a monopoly.

Mu Li went in, but he felt that this inn was not like an inn, there was not even a busy servant, and the shopkeeper loved to ignore it.

"Shopkeeper, do you remember me? I've booked a few rooms before, and now I'm coming to stay there? Xue Ping had already come earlier, and he came to inquire about the news, but the store said that he would only answer questions if he was staying at the hotel, so Xue Ping had no choice but to book a few rooms first. But what the shopkeeper said was the news that Xue Ping had already known, and it was useless at all.

The shopkeeper casually raised his head and glanced at Xue Ping. "I have so many people coming and going here, how do I know who you are, if you want to live, go and live quickly."

Mu Li has never seen such a casual shopkeeper, and he is not kind to the guests who come to stay at all. "I said, what's the matter with you old man, I have to be angry with you if I spend money to live in a hotel?" Mu Li raised his head and directly coaxed over.

"You spend money, and others spend money. If you don't like to live, naturally there are people who want to live. The shopkeeper turned his back to Mu Li, picked up the kettle on the back shelf and replaced it for Mu Li. Give, drink water at night, don't go out if you have nothing to do. ”

What the heck? Mu Li glanced at Chu Lingyi and felt that there must be something wrong with this inn, how could there be such hospitality. You must know that Mu Li did not hesitate to sell her pastries at a loss in order to retain guests. Good guy, the shopkeeper in front of him has become a Buddhist boss, and the feeling is that there is a mine at home.

Chu Lingyi wants Mu to say goodbye, but it is still important to deal with the affairs of the villagers at the moment. "Thank you, shopkeeper." Chu Lingyi took the kettle and pulled Mu Li to the second floor.

Xue Ping didn't know that the princess was coming, so the room he set was not considered Mu Li's share.

"You can live in this room, and I'll go and squeeze with Liuyun in a while." Chu Lingyi knew that Mu Li was used to sleeping alone, so he gave his room to Mu Li and went to Liuyun to sleep by himself.

This inn is not as good as the palace, Mu Li feels unsteady in his heart. "Don't go, you sleep on the ground, I don't dare to sleep alone." Mu Li didn't bring the green kite with him this time, so no one guarded Mu Li to sleep.

Chu Lingyi crooked his lips and smiled, "It's good that the princess doesn't mind." ”

Mu Li immediately clasped his hands in front of his chest and stared at Chu Lingyi with wide eyes. "Why, don't think about it." Mu Li threw the quilt on the bed to Chu Lingyi.

According to the shopkeeper's words, the business of this inn should be excellent, but why only Chu Lingyi and them stayed. Mu Li lay on his stomach at the door, observing everything outside through the crack in the door.

"Don't look at it, this inn is fine."

Mu Li turned around, "How do you know?" ”

Of course Chu Lingyi knows, because he lived here when he used to do things, and the shopkeeper's temper has always been so weird, but people are good.

"That was when you were still the original Mu Li, and this king used to live here."

Mu Li was relieved, "Why didn't you say it earlier, I was worried to death." "But Mu Li has already left Chu Lingyi to sleep, if he opens his mouth to drive him out now, will it be a little unkind.

Mu Li slowly made his bed, then glanced at Chu Lingyi, who was sleeping on the ground, and quickly turned around.

Chu Lingyi smiled and turned to face Mu Li. "The princess has something on her mind?"

"Nonsense, what can I have on my mind. Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and go to bed, there are still things to be busy tomorrow. Mu Li went into the quilt without taking off his clothes, and then covered the quilt to sleep.

"Don't worry, if this king wants to touch you, he will do it a long time ago." Chu Lingyi knew that Mu Li had concerns, so he had always followed Mu Li's rhythm, and never thought of forcing Mu Li.

This guy, I don't know I'm a girl, it's a shame to say it so clearly. Mu Li turned around and ignored Chu Lingyi.

It was cold at night, and Mu Li's futon was given to Chu Lingyi, and he kept turning over. Chu Lingyi noticed it, and immediately got up and covered Mu Li with his quilt.

"Since it's cold, don't force it."

Mu Li looked at Chu Lingyi with half-open eyes and hugged his neck. "Let's sleep together."

The next day, when Mu Li woke up, Chu Lingyi was no longer by her side. After asking the shopkeeper, I found out that they had already gone out early in the morning, and they were embarrassed to disturb Mu Li when he was asleep.

Chu Lingyi was afraid that Mu Li would not be suitable for a person, so he asked people to pick up the green kite overnight, and then the green kite went to the street to buy breakfast for Mu Li.

"Shopkeeper, did they say where to go?" said that she would go together, but she left Mu Li behind, Mu Li was unwilling, she had to go and see it.

The shopkeeper made a gesture to ask for money, which stumped Mu Li, and he didn't bring silver when he went out. "Shopkeeper, you didn't answer my words just now, why are you asking for money now."

"Girl, someone has already paid for my words."

I have to say that this boss is really good at doing business, don't look at his attitude towards customers, but he has made a lot of money, and he has earned it from these small places. In the future, this person must be a good person who can do business.

Mu Li spread his hands, "I don't have money, I love to talk about it." ”

"Give." The green kite happened to come and took out the silver and gave it to the shopkeeper. "Princess, this is a bun that has just come out of the pot, and it's hot."

"Why are you here?"

"Isn't this the prince who sent someone to pick me up, doesn't the princess know?"

A burst of warmth welled up in Mu Li's heart, this Chu Lingyi counted him as having a little conscience, and he knew that it was inconvenient for me to be a woman.

Out of the silver, the shopkeeper's mouth was much faster, and he told Chu Lingyi where they went. Mu Li didn't care about eating breakfast, so he immediately called a carriage over.

Chu Lingyi and the others are now helping the villagers to draw water from the large well at the entrance of the village for irrigation, so as not to cause greater losses due to long-term water shortages.

Mu Li looked at it, "You can't do this, you won't be able to irrigate much water until the Year of the Monkey." ”

Because the well was some distance from the ground, Chu Lingyi irrigated it by carrying water. Even if all the people helped, there would not be much irrigation at all this day, and it would also take up a lot of manpower, which would bring inconvenience to Chu Lingyi's investigation of the case.

Mu Li beckoned Chu Lingyi over, "It's also troublesome for the prince to gather everyone and go to the mountain in front to cut some bamboo." ”

The future world has water pipes, but after all, this is ancient times, and there is no such high-tech thing. It is necessary not only to save manpower, but also to divert water from the well into the ground. Mu Li thought of a way to solve the current problem of difficult irrigation.

"What do you mean, princess?" Chu Lingyi didn't know what Mu Li's idea was in this little head, but if he gave up artificial irrigation to cut bamboo, obviously no one wanted to go.

"Why, you still can't trust me, just let you go." Mu Li pushed Chu Lingyi and asked him to gather everyone quickly, Mu Li's mind was full of some future knowledge, which was out of reach for the people here.
