Chapter Nineteen

Shen Lin didn't want to be in the limelight.

Tonight was just a catch up.

Unfortunately, I couldn't control my little temper.

To be honest, if you have a lovely wife at home, how about making some money and living your own life?

Of course, if you say these words, others will definitely not understand them.

"Don't leave, just this inn!"

The two stopped outside a wooden building.

There are two wind lanterns hanging on the gate.

The red candlelight is quite eye-catching.

Welcoming guests.

“Tuk-tuk-tuk!”

Shen Lin raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Hey, stop knocking, come on, come on!"

A fat shopkeeper with a moustache rubbed his sleepy eyes and opened the door a crack.

"Huh? It's already midnight, why are there still waves of people coming to stay?"

Tian Wenqing squeezed the door open angrily.

"How do you do business? I wonder if tonight is the annual Splendid Poetry Fair?"

"There are so many talented people and beauties coming from all over the world. They are sleepy and tired, and they can't find a place to sleep?"

Talented and beautiful?

Just you two?

The fat shopkeeper narrowed his eyes and looked up and down at the uninvited guest outside the door.

A dry, thin old man.

A young man dressed in ordinary clothes.

Do you have a relationship worth half a copper to a talented man and a beautiful woman?

At the Jinxiulou Poetry Club, which one was not an all-nighter?

You two probably couldn't get through the gate and were listening outside with your ears open, right?

Hmm, it must be!

Not long ago, my shopkeeper received a wave of "talented and beautiful ladies" who came to stay here.

Their dressing style is much better than yours.

Shen Lin was impatient.

"Hey, what are you looking for? Are there any vacancies? How about a squeak?"

The fat shopkeeper said quickly: "Yes, yes, there are many vacant rooms!"

"What do you want?"

"We have the best rooms in our hotel. They are all large suites. They include three meals a day and a bathing pool for one tael of silver per night!"

“The middle room includes breakfast, hot water for bathing, and it costs 200 yuan a night. It’s so cheap!”

"Let's go downstairs..."

This price is no longer low.

Ordinary people work hard for a day and only earn thirty or fifty cents!

Shen Lin followed the fat shopkeeper into the lobby, took out a silver coin and threw it on the counter.

"Don't be impatient. Open the two middle rooms first. Find someone to lead the way. Hot water? Bring it too!"

"Damn, I'm so sleepy!"

The guests were very happy.

Don't even negotiate the price?

"Okay!"

The fat shopkeeper is happy...

"Erdan, don't sleep. Take the guest to Room 1 and 2, hurry up!"

From the shadows of the lobby, a tall and thick young man walked out.

He picked up two thermos bottles from the table, mumbling.

"It's so late at night, why don't you let people sleep?"

"Intermittently...three groups of people came? Bad luck!"

Shen Lin and Tian Wenqing looked at each other, smiled bitterly and shook their heads.

There's no need to care.

Whoever was woken up would not be in a good mood.

After exiting the back door, there is a small courtyard shrouded in darkness, with lush flowers and trees.

There are two-story wooden buildings on three sides of the courtyard, which are quite large.

Shen Lin and Tian Wenqing followed the boy named Erdan to the second floor on the right.

If you start first, the second room will be empty!

It seems that the business of welcoming guests is not good.

No wonder the service attitude is so poor.

After Erdan put down the kettle and went downstairs, Tian Wenqing complained sadly.

"Boy, are you rich now? You are lavish."

"It's just a half-night stay, and a room worth tens of renminbi, isn't it good..."

Shen Lin yawned and pushed the old man out.

"Aren't you nagging? Just go out and turn right. I won't see you off..."

At this time, the lights downstairs came on.

A clear female voice sounded.

"Hey, little brother, didn't you say there is no hot water?"

Erdan said in a gruff voice: "You're offering a half-day price to live in a lower room, but there's no hot water. What's wrong?"

The female voice said angrily: "Why are you like this? At first, the shopkeeper promised to give it to me!"

It turns out that the shopkeeper promised to have everything.

Unfortunately, the waiter got a discount here!

"No, just no!"

Erdan walked out quickly and muttered something.

The female voice below suddenly became louder.

"Hey, why are you scolding people? Who do you think is the poor guy?"

Shen Lin was so sleepy that he thought the female voice was somewhat familiar.

This time I finally heard it clearly.

oops?

Isn't this our Chu'er?

After working on it for a long time, you and your second uncle also live here?

Shen Lin suddenly lost all sleep, opened the door and ran downstairs.

That Erdan looked like he was being arrogant and unreasonable, so he put his hands on his hips and cursed.

"You are a poor man, as are your whole family! The house price is fifty cents a night, but you have to pay it down to thirty cents. I have never seen you like this. You have no money, so you sleep on the street?"

"A mud-legged guy from the country can't afford to stay in an inn, so he's just pretending..."

Suddenly, a big ear-scraper fanned over.

"Crack!"

Erdan was stunned for a while after being beaten!

"You...you dare to hit me?"

Shen Lin flew up with another kick, causing the guy to stumble.

"Who is Clay Legs? What's wrong with Clay Legs? If there are no Clay Legs farming, are you going to eat shit?"

"Who is the poor man?"

"How dare you bully my Chu'er, a dog who looks down upon others?"

"I'll beat you to death!"

The lower room with the light on made a "squeak" sound.

The door opened.

A petite person, with a familiar body fragrance, fell into Shen Lin's arms.

"Ms. sir? So it turns out that the person who just went upstairs is really you?"

At this time, downstairs and upstairs.

The lights in many rooms were on.

Such a quarrel and a fight.

There's quite a bit of movement.

The little boy Erdan was a little scared.

He is a handyman, but he has no ability to mess with customers.

But this guy was quick-witted and simply took advantage of the situation.

He shouted at the top of his lungs.

"The shopkeeper is here to beat someone!"

This is the time to stir up trouble!

Don't be alarmed by Tian Wenqing upstairs and second uncle Shen Zhonghe next door on the first floor.

"Shen Lin, what's wrong?"

Tian Wenqing was a little out of breath.

"Yo? Zhonghe? Chu'er? You two live here too? No wonder the voice sounds familiar to me?"

Shen Zhonghe rubbed his hands and said, "What about Lao Shizi... is the poetry conference over? Brother Lin, the boy in this shabby shop has a bad attitude."

"Boy, are you tired of living?"

The fat shopkeeper hurried in, followed by the two waiters who were also sleepy-eyed.

"What? What are you doing? You're not sleeping in the middle of the night? Don't the other guests need to rest?"

That dick was lying on the ground, deliberately staring at his legs and acting mischievously.

"The shopkeeper lives in a Chinese-style room, and this guy...he beat me!"

"What?" The fat shopkeeper grasped his whiskers and rolled his little eyes.

"It's you two again? This is your fault. How can you hit someone casually? If you report to the government, you will be punished?"

Yo?

Are you still protecting your family?

Don't you ask?

Who is right and wrong?

Sure enough, he trained such an overbearing waiter.

As a shopkeeper, you are probably not a good person.

Shen Lin sneered and said: "The attitude is extremely bad. He promised to provide hot water to others but deliberately refused to do so!"

"The most hateful thing is that this bastard dares to insult my wife!"

"It's just looking for death!"

Your wife? Do you want such a coincidence?

The fat shopkeeper glared at Erdan fiercely.

You're a tough guy.

Don't cause any trouble for me!

"Guest, I'm staying in an inn. It's normal to have some quarrels. How can I be comprehensive?"

"Anyway, you hit someone? It's just wrong!"

Shen Lin couldn't help grinding his teeth. He was already very angry today, but he didn't expect people to hit him one by one.
