Chapter 12 Staying at a homestay in Lao Cai

The window of her room can be locked from the inside, and when you push it open, you can see the alley outside, except for a wooden bed and bedside table, there is only a TV, and even the clothes are hung with wooden sticks hung by hemp rope, and the corners and corners are unobstructed. Because the first floor is a bar and a common area, and there is a small alley along the street, the sound insulation of this old building is not very good, and the special room does not have a separate bathroom. Correspondingly, there are toilets and shower rooms in the southeast corner of the first floor for male residents, and on the second floor for female residents, both of which are two rooms, the outer room is a toilet and a row of tiled sinks, and the inner room is a shower with four partitions.

Wei Xiaoyu checked in at the front desk, and the young man at the cashier was the youngest son of the owner of the yard and helped her carry her suitcase to the second floor. She put the backpack and luggage in the room, tied the bag given by Ah Qi to the pants loop, stuffed it in her right hand pocket, and then took the little gentleman and the round cage out to find a place to have dinner.

Most of the hotels in the scenic area are tourists traveling together, and it is rare for her to be alone. Because it was already half past nine in the evening, and the shops were closing one after another, so when he saw a restaurant that was still open, Wei Xiaoyu walked in. She ordered a dish of shredded pork noodles and a side dish of shredded potatoes according to the menu on the wall, and in order to avoid another noon situation, she also took a special look, there was no dish made with pigeon meat here.

The guy at the store was a warm and talkative young man in his thirties, with a red towel around his neck, and when he was serving, he asked, "Girl, if you don't tie up this pigeon, won't it run on its own?"

Wei Xiaoyu said: "It's okay, it won't run." ”

At this time, she was hungry, and she didn't care about any image, so she devoured it, and no one in the local area knew her anyway. When I came out with my stomach filled, there were not too many people on the street, and most of the shops were closed. Returning to a ceramic shop passing by the B&B, there are two bamboo baskets at the door, which contain all kinds of small cups, small bowls and small plates, with a variety of shapes and colors, and a cardboard with "two 15 yuan" written next to it.

The boss saw Wei Xiaoyu stop, and shouted through the counter: "Girl, see if there is anything you like, it's about to close, give you ten yuan or two!"

Thinking that Mr. Xiao didn't have his own food utensils and water cups, Wei Xiaoyu bent down and picked two small porcelain cups: one emerald green with ice cracks, and one with a treasure pattern on a white background.

The old street where the tourists have dispersed can be seen at this moment, and the buildings on both sides are no more than two stories high, continuing the unique structural characteristics of ancient buildings. Either white walls and black tiles, or wood decoration, the style is the same but not the same. Wei Xiaoyu was walking towards the B&B in the evening breeze blowing from the surrounding mountains, but Mr. Xiao said that he was going to find his brothers to "collect information", flapped his wings and flew away.

Wei Xiaoyu was going to walk around the street, but after thinking about it, he was not familiar with life at this time, and the stories of missing people he had heard also came to mind, so he took the steps of preparing to wander around and returned directly to the homestay. After turning on the air conditioner in her room, she packed up her things and went to the shower room at the end of the hallway to wash up.

There were already people in the shower room, it sounded like a mother and daughter, and the little girl was talking some fairy tales, and she sounded like she was only three or four years old. Halfway through the show, the sound of water and talking next door stopped, and the mother coaxed the little girl out of the shower room. After a while, two more girls came in, talking through the partition while washing, and it sounded like they should be female college students living next door to her, which made her reminisce about her college life.

After taking a bath, the little fish was refreshed and lay on the railing for a while, and the breeze in this yard was somewhat similar to that in the old yard of his hometown. When she returned to the room, the little gentleman had not come back, she turned on the TV, and lay on the bed in large characters to watch TV, at this time, under the effect of the air conditioner, the room was cool and comfortable, and soon she fell asleep unconsciously.

After about an hour, she was woken up by the sound of a motorcycle passing by on the street, fumbled to find the remote control and turned off the TV, but what made her feel furious was that the voice from the gas station in the morning sounded again: "Kill that pigeon, kill that pigeon......"

She opened her eyes and tried to wake herself up, but the voice disappeared, and she couldn't tell if it was a dream or reality. She got up from the bed and opened half the window to get some air. At this time, the noise from outside made her less depressed.

It wasn't until about eight o'clock the next morning that the little gentleman flew back from outside, squeezed in through the half window, and shouted, "Room 322, Building 14, roar!"

Wei Xiaoyu was woken up from his dream and said, "Why have you been gone for so long and only come back now?"

The little gentleman rolled his eyes and said, "The brothers are so enthusiastic, we have a good time playing and getting along! You are talking like an aggrieved girl! No...... You're a!"

Wei Xiaoyu was a little unacceptable to the roughness of its words, and said, "You can't call me that, you can call me by my name." ”

The little gentleman said, "Yes, I remember that Lao Wei was talking about his wife outside!"

Wei Xiaoyu said: "Why do I think you have known him for a long time, does it seem to be very familiar?"

The little gentleman stood in place as if he had been clicked, and said, "Uh...... Of course not, it's just that Lingpo said all this. And the fact that he had abused the pigeons! it was so real! I was so angry!" it explained as it grunted as it fluttered its wings and wrestled with the air.

Wei Xiaoyu had no way to deal with its nonsense and flickering words, so she could only shake her head helplessly, there were too many strange things she encountered along the way, as for whether Mr. Xiao and Lao Wei had known each other for a long time, they could only rely on its words for the time being. As for what will happen in the future, there is a hunch that tells her that maybe even Ah Qi doesn't know.

At this time, Mr. Xiao stepped on the remote control and turned on the TV, switched to the drama library, flipped through the latest releases, European and American films, and finally opened a Hong Kong-made police and gangster film, spread his wings and leaned on the pillow, and watched it with relish.

Only then did Wei Xiaoyu understand where he learned his "famous sayings and aphorisms" that popped up from time to time. She drank a few sips of mineral water, took toiletries and the porcelain cup she bought last night and went to the bathroom, and when she came back from washing, she added corn and mineral water to the porcelain cup and said, "How did those pigeons find me yesterday afternoon?"

The little gentleman dragged out his voice and said, "Hehe, there are twenty or thirty pigeons in that house, but the others don't know where to fly!"

Wei Xiaoyu said: "Do you let them all come to me, some may not know the way!"

The little gentleman said, "Hmph, some of them just fly out and forget about it!"

Wei Xiaoyu asked, "Why do they all ask my name?"

The little gentleman said, "So you know if these guys have found you!"

Wei Xiaoyu said, "But, you can come back by yourself, right?"

The little gentleman said, "Why are you so annoyed, isn't it cool to have brothers running errands for me?"

At this time, the corridor outside sounded laughter and the sound of suitcases dragging on the ground, and the female college students next door were ready to check out. Wei Xiaoyu unplugged the mobile phone that was charging on the bedside table, connected to the wireless network of the homestay, and opened the mailbox to confirm whether there was a reply email from a recruitment company, but only received a few advertisements.
