Half-awake and floating Chapter 38 The proprietress in the inn
The sunset was sparkling on the water, looking at Ninglu City in front of him, Li Mengzhou exhaled slightly.
Ye Sangyu squatted in front of the stream and washed his face, then suddenly stood in front of Li Mengzhou and stretched out his hand.
Li Mengzhou thought that Ye Sangyu wanted to hug her.
Intimate movements like this, which are not particularly intimate, seem to have become commonplace.
Li Mengzhou doesn't care, he doesn't hesitate to embrace himself.
Ye Sangyu's little face was hot, and he said, "No, I'm hungry, you gave me food." ”
Li Mengzhou felt a little embarrassed, retracted his outstretched hands, took out the dim sum he had purchased in another city from the package, and handed it to Ye Sangyu.
He found that Ye Sangyu's food seemed to be very large, and he had to beg for food from time to time, and along the way, Ye Sangyu ate almost all the delicacies in the cities he passed.
This also led to a rapid reduction in Li Mengzhou's travel expenses, and he was originally calculated to be able to reach the capital almost immediately, but now there is not much left.
As if complaining, Li Mengzhou muttered: "I don't have much silver in my pocket anymore, and I guess I can barely eat a dinner, if I save some, it should be enough to stay in the guest house, but tomorrow I will really be penniless." ”
Ye Sangyu didn't seem to hear it, while eating a snack, his mouth bulging and said indistinctly: "Then you can do odd jobs in the inn by the way, wash the dishes and serve the dishes, anyway, I follow you, you have to feed me." ”
Li Mengzhou said in his heart that if you are my daughter-in-law, then it is reasonable, otherwise why should I feed you, the key is that you can eat so much, and I can't afford to raise it.
Looking at Li Mengzhou with a bitter face, Ye Sangyu smiled and stretched out his hand to pinch his face, and said, "Okay, it's a big deal, I'll go to the city to find a job, embroidery or something, and I can earn some silver." ”
Li Mengzhou stretched out his hand to wipe off the dim sum scum that was stained on Ye Sangyu's face, and said seriously: "I'm a man, how can I let you make money, it's good if you have this heart, don't worry, I'll think of a way." ”
Ye Sangyu's family background is not simple, this is what Li Mengzhou can recognize, as a daughter, it would be a bit embarrassing to use embroidery to earn silver, and Li Mengzhou was unwilling to let Ye Sangyu do this.
But Ye Sangyu's words still moved Li Mengzhou very much, ignoring that his embarrassment of not having money now was caused by Ye Sangyu.
Shaking off the non-existent dust on his body, Li Mengzhou also went to the stream to wash his face, the water slapped on his face, and the whole person seemed to be in a lot of energy.
He was still wearing black, but it was no longer the original outfit, after all, when he was in the Flower City Alliance, his clothes were already torn and could not be wanted.
Except for some clothes given to him by Lin Shaoyun, what he is wearing now is the clothes that Ye Sangyu bought for him when he passed through a certain city, although in the end it was the silver that Li Mengzhou paid for himself.
In addition to representing Li Mengzhou's dark past when he was a child, black clothes are also easier to hide when he was a killer, and they are not easy to get dirty, and they can be worn for a long time, so Li Mengzhou doesn't like white clothes very much.
In addition, his complexion is slightly darker, and it is even worse to wear white clothes.
The clothes he is wearing now are quite expensive, and it cost him eight taels of silver, you must know that in ordinary people's homes, one tael of silver is enough to spend a month, and eight taels of silver to buy a piece of clothing, in Li Mengzhou's opinion, is a very unnecessary and idiotic behavior.
However, this is the clothes that Ye Sangyu likes, and he has to wear them, even if he feels awkward, he doesn't dare to say anything, and the expensive clothes are really comfortable to wear.
If his complexion is whiter now, with this eight-tael robe, he will definitely have the style of a rich son, and standing with Ye Sangyu, he can match it.
In response to this, Li Mengzhou is still very happy.
After washing his face and returning to Ye Sangyu's side, the latter stretched out his hand to him again.
Li Mengzhou thought that she was going to eat again, but it turned out that Ye Sangyu said that he was tired of walking and wanted him to carry it.
In the end, of course, Li Mengzhou squatted down obediently, Ye Sangyu happily lay on his back, and the two of them walked towards Ning Lucheng.
The back is pulled far away in the setting sun.
......
It is now the late autumn season, everything is withering, there are few tourists, and the outside of Ninglu City looks even more deserted.
Approaching evening, the remnant sun was like blood, and the fiery red clouds reflected in the sky over Ninglu City, but it added a bit of tranquility.
At this time, Li Mengzhou and Ye Sangyu were already walking side by side on the streets after entering the city.
Because Ye Sangyu didn't let Li Mengzhou carry her when she was at the city gate, the relationship between the two was a little closer, as long as the contact was not too excessive, she wouldn't mind, but this didn't mean that she could be in public.
It may be very romantic for a man to walk with a woman on his back, but it is also a matter of immorality in front of people, and it is a small matter to be talked about, especially in terms of the reputation of the girl's family, it will be a very serious problem.
Maybe in the world of cultivators, these are not unacceptable, but in the world, it is a rule for men and women not to give or receive kisses, if they are not husband and wife, or if they are related by blood, if they are too close, although it is not an unforgivable sin, but the girl's family is also shameless.
Jiang Guo's atmosphere is not too traditional, but it is also moderate, if in other feudal dynasties, a man and a woman make intimate actions in public, even if they are husband and wife, they are not recognized.
Ye Sangyu was shy and nervous, which was understandable.
Although Li Mengzhou didn't care much about this, he couldn't really carry Ye Sangyu into the city.
The two walked forward in silence.
Xu was too tired from the journey, and the silver was almost gone, so they had no idea of enjoying the scenery of Ninglu City, and the sky was already dark, and there were no interesting things on the streets.
In addition to finding a way to earn some money, the first thing to do is to find an inn to live in.
And try to find a cheaper inn, otherwise although you have accommodation, you will definitely be hungry at night.
There will be cheap inns, but they are not destined to be very large, and the location will not be very good, so they turned left and right, and finally chose an inn.
Li Mengzhou looked up, the four big characters were very eye-catching, and it was indeed 'an inn'.
The inn is in the deep alley, and if you are not familiar with it, it is really difficult to find.
The shopkeeper in the inn walked out, with a rag on his shoulder, and stepped forward with a smile on his face: "Does the guest officer want to play the tip or stay in the hotel?"
Li Mengzhou glanced around the environment in the inn, which was a little messy, but he could barely say it, so he replied casually: "Stay in the hotel." ”
The shopkeeper has always been a person who can speak well, and basically he is broken-mouthed, he said with great interest: "The guest officer came to us to find the right place, in the whole Ninglu, our inn is definitely the best choice, don't look at our shop is small, but the so-called sparrows are small and have all kinds of organs."
The guest officer saw it, the flag in front of our store, that is the inscription of Ninglu's famous talent, a guest officer, as warm as home, when he arrives here, he is like his own home, absolutely comfortable, and the talented man has also been admitted to the fame, these words are valuable. ”
Li Mengzhou couldn't help but be a little disdainful when he heard the shopkeeper's verbosity, don't say what kind of name this small broken shop can have, just the so-called big talent inscription, it seems that he is uneducated, and what kind of fame he has obtained, it is nonsense when he hears it.
But seeing that the shopkeeper seemed to be very interested, he rarely made a joke and said, "This won't be a black shop." ”
The shopkeeper said suddenly: "Where is the guest officer, we are a serious business here, you can see my hospitality, how can you receive such treatment elsewhere, not to mention that there is a great talent who personally inscribes it, this can't prove everything." ”
Li Mengzhou was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, smacked his mouth, and said, "Just find a room." ”
The shopkeeper glanced at Ye Sangyu, and when he heard that there was only one room, he thought that the two were a young couple, so he just smiled, said nothing more, and led the two into the lobby.
The reason for opening a room is not only to save money, but also because the two of them have been together for half a month, and they have lived in Huacheng for a few days, so they will not have any other ideas.
The inn has two floors, in addition to the counter in the lobby on the first floor, there are only four or five tables and supporting benches, the second floor is a place to live, and there are not many rooms, there are no guests in the lobby at the moment, Li Mengzhou guessed that there may be no guests in this inn at all.
There was a person sitting in the counter, a woman, about thirty years old, bored eating melon seeds, she was wearing pothos satin, tightly clinging to her body, her body was plump, coupled with the face of the, there was a temptation that could not be ignored.
The proprietress heard the footsteps, raised her head very casually, and saw that the girl who was looking left and right was extremely handsome, and her eyes couldn't help but light up slightly.
Compared with the white little boy, Li Mengzhou is of course not very handsome, but his temperament is sometimes much more useful than his face, and his angular face, except for his dark complexion, is not ugly in any aspect, but much stronger than those weak scholars who can't lift it.
The proprietress was not attracted by Li Mengzhou, but faintly felt a vague aura from him.
It's not a Jianghu gas, but a kind of murderous aura that makes people feel cold.
The proprietress thinks that she will never be wrong, in addition to the fact that she has seen many murderers with murderous aura, she herself is also a person in the rivers and lakes, and she is the most sensitive to this kind of atmosphere.
But when such a murderous aura appeared on a young man, it was a little terrifying.
There will be a murderous aura on the butcher's body, that is because it is stained with blood all year round, but it is only inferior, if it is a real murderous thief and horse bandit, the murderous aura will be stronger, and a little restrained, but not easy to detect.
From this point of view, this young man is not a novice who has just entered the rivers and lakes, but should be the momentum that only the old rivers and lakes will have.
