"If I want you to lead the way, how much do you charge?
Ye Chuqiu asked, having a guide to lead the way would save her from taking unnecessary steps. However, when she came to a place she was unfamiliar with, she still had to put on a show for fear of being deceived by others.
Ye Chuqiu stretched out her hand, and the clever four tigers immediately ran to the oxcart, took a long wooden stick from it and handed it to her hand. Ye Chuqiu took the wooden stick and folded it into
Two paragraphs, and then smiled at the guide named Shouhou, "I am old and my legs and feet are not good, so I need to make a crutch."
Seeing Ye Chuqiu's move, Thin Monkey was stunned for a moment. He really wanted to take a closer look at the piece of wood to see if it was fake, but he didn't dare to speak.
In fact, he was very close to Ye Chuqiu, and he could clearly see the fracture after the stick was broken. The texture was unique to the wood and could not be faked.
He didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly said to Ye Chuqiu: "Old lady, how can an idle guy like me who is running errands dare to talk about whether there is a fee or not? If you feel satisfied later, you can send a few pennies as you please.
I’ll just have a cup of tea."
"Okay." Ye Chuqiu nodded and said, "Then find us an inn. Food and accommodation will be included."
"Okay, madam, don't worry, I will definitely find you a good inn. I wonder if you want a more luxurious inn or a more affordable one?"
"I like peace and quiet. I have limited money, so I want a clean and affordable place." Ye Chuqiu answered.
"Okay, no problem." After hearing Ye Chuqiu's words, Shouhou thought for a moment and said, "I happen to know an inn. Although the place is a little remote, it is quiet and the price is affordable. The inn is run by a couple.
Yes, the people are very nice.”
"Then take us to have a look." Ye Chuqiu motioned for him to lead the way.
Shouhou walked forward, and Ye Chuqiu and the others followed. This place was indeed remote, far away from the main street. No wonder it was quiet.
After following Shouhou and turning into a small alley, they finally arrived at Fulai Inn.
"Shopkeeper Tian, come out to greet the guests soon."
Skinny Monkey walked to the door first and shouted inside.
"Hey, here we come." Following the voice, a woman in her thirties walked out.
This woman is wearing a lotus-colored top, a cyan skirt underneath, a dark red apron around her waist, and a lotus-colored scarf on her head. She has an almond-shaped face and is quite pretty.
Very kind-looking.
"I've seen a few guests, please come in and invite them."
The woman wiped her hands on the apron around her waist, then stretched out her hands and bent down in a gesture of invitation.
When Ye Chuqiu and the others entered the yard, she shouted inside again: "Master, come and lead the horse quickly."
"Hey, here we come."
Following her words, a middle-aged man in his thirties walked out. He was wearing blue clothes, a sweat towel tied around his waist, his trouser legs and sleeves were rolled up, and there were some beads of sweat on his forehead, as if he had just been there.
Work.
"Guests, please come in and let me help you lead this horse to the backyard." He came over and said to Ye Chuqiu and the others.
"This is Shopkeeper Tian." Shou Hou introduced from the side: "These are guests from far away. You must treat them well."
The woman entered the shop, picked up the rag hanging under the table and wiped the table clean, while greeting a few people. As she spoke, she wiped her hand on the apron around her waist, then picked up the teapot and poured tea for everyone.
.
Ye Chuqiu walked towards the lobby, but Dahu and the others had not yet followed because they did not want shopkeeper Sheng Tian to take away their horses and oxen.
This horse can earn dozens of taels of silver, and the cow is also a big buffalo that they have raised since childhood, and they finally recovered it after losing it. What if the shopkeeper takes it away and sells it?
They should be careful.
"Big Tiger, Second Tiger, Big Leopard, you follow the shopkeeper and go to the back to place the carriages and horses." Ye Chuqiu said when he saw this.
Although the shopkeeper may not necessarily value this thing about her, but since everyone is not at ease, just be generous and let a few children follow.
"Yes, mother/uncle mother."
Ye Chuqiu's proposal was in line with everyone's expectations. Dahu and the others followed the shopkeeper to arrange the carriages and horses, while the others followed Ye Chuqiu to the lobby.
The lobby of the inn was very clean, and the tables and chairs were painted and looked new, which made Li Youmei and the others a little cautious.
After all, they had eaten and slept in the open all the way. Who would have thought that they could enter the city and enter such a good inn?
"Come, have tea." the landlady greeted.
Ye Chuqiu took a long sip of tea, then raised his head and said, "Arrange seven rooms for us. How much will it cost?"
"Seven upper-class rooms? Our family only has one upper-class room left, and the others are second-class rooms. Is that feasible?" said the landlady.
"Okay." Ye Chuqiu nodded.
"One upper-class room costs one hundred cents per night; second-class room costs sixty cents per night; six rooms cost three hundred and sixty cents, a total of four hundred and sixty cents." The landlady calculated quickly.
"Okay, give us another table of good food." Ye Chuqiu took out another piece of broken silver from his arms and threw it to the proprietress.
"Okay." The landlady received the silver, and her smile became even happier. She walked behind the counter and weighed the silver with a small scale, "Sir, your silver is five hundred and three cents in total, which can be worth five hundred and three cents."
Ten articles."
"Okay, this money is considered a deposit, and the rest of the rent and food will be settled after we leave." Ye Chuqiu replied.
"No problem." The landlady nodded. After collecting the money, shopkeeper Tian and Lin Dahu walked in. She asked shopkeeper Tian to lead them upstairs to view the room, while she went to the kitchen and ordered the kitchen to cook.
.
Shopkeeper Tian took Ye Chuqiu and the others upstairs and quickly looked around the house. The upper room was the most spacious, so of course Ye Chuqiu left it to himself.
As for the six medium-sized rooms, two are for second-bedrooms; two are for three-bedrooms. In the remaining two, she asked Zhao Hehua to take Wufeng, Qiaoer to live in one, and Lin Dahu to take his three brothers to live in one.
After arranging the house and putting away the luggage, Ye Chuqiu and the others went downstairs, and the landlady also arranged some food and came out.
Because the dining table was not big, the landlady kindly helped them put three tables together so that they could eat together.
