The old shopkeeper came in no hurry.

"What are you doing here with me?"

Liu Xinger is just serious.

"The little woman is Liu Xing'er from Fulai Inn, and she just wanted to talk about a business with the old shopkeeper today!"

The old man chuckled.

"That's ridiculous, these days, there is actually a business that I don't do by myself, and I rush to other people's stores!"

Liu Xing'er saw that the old man did not reject her, and said it unhurriedly.

"I can't hide it, my Fulai Inn has negotiated with Nanyue, Donglai, Caixin, and Da Nan four inns today, and no one is willing to put aside their prejudices and trade with their peers, including Da Nan is also sitting on the ground."

The old man asked, "What is your business?" ”

Liu Xinger said carefully.

"This is a total of 16 students with 50 wen per night, a total of 800 wen, rice and dried vegetables are all free, wine and meat are also priced separately, and 48 wen of this is to give us the return of the Fulai Inn's running expenses, which is 3 wen per person."

The old man laughed again.

"This kind of loss-making business, other companies are not willing to do it, why should I do it?"

Liu Xing'er said very easily.

"We are all unpopular inns in Stone Town, and there are very few customers, and the rooms are empty there, so it is better to earn a little is a little."

The old man snorted coldly.

"It doesn't sound like it's a loss...... But why do you think I'm going to take this unprofitable deal? ”

Liu Xing'er's eyes were fixed.

"Just because this is a group of students who went to Beijing to take the exam, among them, eighty percent of the students have stayed at my Fulai Inn because of the low price of my Fulai Inn, this group of students is thrifty, but the old shopkeeper will not have heard of it."

The old man listened carefully and didn't answer again, Liu Xing'er saw that the old shopkeeper seemed to be attentive, and continued.

"If there are high school students in this group of students, if we treat them well and take care of them more, I don't think I need to say more about the benefits!"

The old man seemed to be looking through the book in his hand and said lightly.

"It's really like what you said, how can you Fulai Inn let go!"

Liu Xing'er smiled.

"Say it and let the old shopkeeper make fun of it, I think you have also heard some things about our Fulai Inn, our Fulai Inn only has seven or eight rooms, and a few people living together only squeezed out more than 20 students, if it is not for the limited conditions, it doesn't matter if I provide free housing for students!"

The old shopkeeper listened to Liu Xing'er's sincerity, seeing her intentions, thinking that she was really planning for that group of students, and after a little consideration, he counted out a hundred yuan and put it in Liu Xing'er's hand.

"My old bones really like your girl's film, you girl doesn't see things simply, come to my inn to drink tea with my sons and grandchildren in the future!"

Liu Xing'er's eyes lit up.

"Old shopkeeper, you have agreed."

The old shopkeeper waved at her, a smile on his lips.

"Little girl, go and bring people here, there will be such work in the future, pull it to my Jinfeng Inn, don't go to those who don't have the eyesight to see."

Liu Xing'er tightly dragged the 100 copper coins, bowed down to the old shopkeeper excitedly, turned around and was about to leave, just about to step out of the door, remembered one thing, turned around and put down the 100 copper coins, and whispered: "I feel guilty about this group of students, I don't want this 100 yuan, you can fold down 100 yuan for that group of students." ”

The old shopkeeper smiled: "This hundred Wen you want to count against me Jin Feng has no loss, if you are willing to fold it to that group of students, you can fold it down." ”

Liu Xing'er nodded, her heart was like a big stone falling, and as soon as she went out, she hugged Su Zhengdi tightly, with tears in her eyes.

"It's done, it's done, I thought I wouldn't have a chance again...... Woowoooooooooo

Speaking of the sore spot, Liu Xinger actually buried herself in Su Zhengdi's arms and cried, Su Zhengdi smiled and patted her head, like coaxing a child: "You woman really said that the wind is rain, and she is still holding a big knife in front of the black-faced shopkeeper to show off her might, why do you cry?" ”

Liu Xing'er wiped her tears and muttered: "Aren't I too happy!" ”

Su Zhengdi gently scratched her nose: "Okay, okay, don't cry, let's go and tell the group of students so that they can rest assured." ”

Liu Xing'er and Su Zhengdi hurried to that end, and sure enough, they saw the group of people in the same place.

They also really believed her, and she didn't let down this group of people.

She waved at the group of students from afar, and only told them when she got closer.

"Jin Feng's old shopkeeper is a very good old man, I have talked to him for a long time, he will take care of you, you can rest assured to go and live there! In addition......"

She was a little embarrassed: "This time, our Fulai Inn didn't take a penny in return, and we also negotiated the room money for you, each of you only needs forty-three yuan is enough, and it can be regarded as some compensation for my Liu Xing'er for today's matter." ”

When this group of students heard Liu Xinger say this, they also felt embarrassed and apologized for some of their impetuous behaviors.

Liu Xing'er and Su Zhengdi sent people to the Jinfeng Inn, and when they saw that they stayed one by one, they left with confidence.

The old shopkeeper carefully counted the number of people, only to find that there was one person missing, standing at the door to see, there was another person sitting against the door with a package on his back, the old shopkeeper asked him.

"Why don't you come in, young man!"

The man whispered: "Today I and everyone found Fulai from the entrance of the town, from Fulai to Da Nan, and finally to this Jinfeng, just now I found that my purse fell off on this road, I! Is there no place to live...... Just sit here and wait for everyone, let's go again tomorrow! ”

The old shopkeeper didn't have any distractions, but he was a little unbearable.

"It's freezing this day, you freeze outside here for a night, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter the examination room, you will go to my Jinfeng tonight to stay overnight, and if you get famous, you will make up for me."

The student had tears in his eyes.

"Old gentleman, under the surname Bai, the name is neutral, if he can really go to high school, he will definitely beat the gong and drum to give the old shopkeeper a plaque."

The old shopkeeper smiled.

"Bai Zhongli, remember what you said today."

As for Liu Xing'er and Su Zhengdi, they also returned to the Fulai Inn, Su Huagu didn't know when they were released from the firewood room, they had already prepared a table of meals, and the family sat around and waited for them, and no one moved their chopsticks.

As soon as Old Man Su saw people, he said, "Today - you are also tired for a day, sit down and eat." ”

Brother Su Zhengdi patted Liu Xing'er, motioned for her to sit down, and went to the side to hang up the big knife sent by Li Biao.

As soon as Liu Xing'er sat down, Mrs. Su asked lukewarmly, "Where did you take people today?" ”

Liu Xing'er took a bite of the dish with chopsticks, and sighed while eating: "I went to Da Nan first and then went to Jinfeng." ”

Mrs. Su was anxious: "I just want to ask, did you bring back the money after running for a day today?" ”

"No, it's all discounted to the students."

Brother Su Zhengdi sat beside Liu Xing'er calmly and answered this question for her.

Mrs. Su was furious, and scolded as soon as the chopsticks fell: "The store is busy, you haven't taken a penny back, just wandered around outside for a day, the key Hua Gu did her best for this family, and you also locked her up in the firewood room!" I'll tell you! If you don't give an explanation today! I'll get Liu Xing'er, the vixen, out! ”

When Su Huagu heard this, she cried aggrievedly.

Old Man Su lost his temper and put the chopsticks down: "Okay! You drive the apricots out, then you just wait to drink the northwest wind! ”

But after Liu Xing'er finished eating the last bite of rice in the bowl, she smiled at Mrs. Su: "Mother, I, Liu Xing'er, called you today, and I want to know if I, Liu Xing'er, am the daughter-in-law of the Su family?" Or is it the Su family's chores? ”

Mrs. Su didn't think about it: "You haven't given birth to a son and a half daughter to our Su family until now, so you are not the daughter-in-law of our Su family!" ”

Su Huagu also nodded again and again: "That's it, that's it, but it was bought back by our Su family, saying that she was still not convinced, and now it is her heart that is dead." ”

Liu Xing'er just wiped her mouth, neither angry nor annoyed: "In this case, before the shopkeeper drives me out, shouldn't I settle all my wages in the Fulai Inn?" In addition, I have made a lot of money for the Fulai Inn in the past two months, and this remuneration must not be calculated according to miscellaneous work, right? And a few days ago, I helped Fulai Inn pay off the one-year protection fee owed, how should the shopkeeper clear this favor? ”

Mrs. Su faced Liu Xing'er's question, and couldn't answer a word with her mouth half open.

She hated it in her heart, and felt that she looked down on this yellow-haired girl too much on weekdays, and she dared to ask her for money in a reasonable manner.

Su Huagu slapped the table and accused her: "You are a stinky and shameless person, our Su family hasn't asked you to take money to redeem yourself, but you have settled accounts with our Su family!" ”

Liu Xing'er was very calm, and said slowly: "Miss Su family, you said that I bought it from your Su family, but there is a deed of sale?" If I didn't sell the deed, then I would have to go to the government to find the county magistrate to complain! ”

Su Huagu was also dumbfounded, although they were chosen by thousands of people to fall in love with Liu Xing'er, an orphan girl, and gave some money to the distant relatives who introduced her, but after all, it was the daughter-in-law of the Su family who was brought in by their big red sedan chair, where is there any deed of sale!

Su Zhengdi's head was buzzing, and he felt that this family was really noisy.

"Xing'er is my Su Zhengdi's wife, even if she didn't give birth to a son and a half daughter, I recognize her, she is the daughter-in-law of the Su family, and she is the future shopkeeper of the Fulai Inn, to slander her is to slander me, and to drive her away is to drive me away!"

He took Liu Xinger to the town street angrily, because he met the student scientific examination, there were colored lights on the road, which made Liu Xinger's face look particularly good, Su Zhengdi looked at Liu Xinger seriously, full of guilt.

"I've really wronged you."

Liu Xing'er didn't care.

"I don't feel wronged! Do you think I look like a wronged person? ”
