The two of them walked home, and Zhao Ling'er asked Ayao to take her to the Wenda Bookstore. After making sure that Ayao would not get lost, the two returned to their home.
Zhao Ling'er lit the fuel-saving lamp she bought today and placed it on the table in the main room.
Ayao sat down to read a book. Zhao Ling'er wanted to record today's expenses.
Today’s income:
Yingbin Building 680 Wen;
Borrow Mu Yunqing 50 taels;
Including yesterday's balance, the total is 87 taels and 131 cents.
Today’s expenses:
The room and board fee at Junpeng Inn is 4 taels and 580 yuan;
The carriage fee is 2 000 and 50 cents;
The coachman’s medical expenses were 2 taels;
Rent a house for 23 taels and 560 cents;
The coachman’s compensation is 10 taels;
Purchase daily necessities 3 taels, 086 yuan;
Dinner 42 articles.
Today’s total expenditure is 45 taels and 318 yuan.
The remaining cash now totals 41 taels, 813 Wen.
After settling the accounts, Zhao Ling'er saw that Ayao had fallen asleep on the table.
At this time, I vaguely heard a watchman beating a gong on the street outside: "Second watch at midnight, close the doors and windows to prevent theft and theft!"
It's past nine o'clock, it's time to go to bed!
She quickly went to the bedroom to make the mattress, then returned to the living room to carry Ayao back to bed, but she couldn't carry her. Then she remembered that she was just a little girl who looked only nine years old.
Zhao Ling'er shook Ayao awake and called her back to bed to sleep.
Then Zhao Ling'er also went to bed.
Lying on the bed, although she was very tired, Zhao Ling'er felt itchy all over.
I sweated today and didn't take a shower at night. Thinking about it, I must have gotten dust all over myself when cleaning, and I feel uncomfortable just thinking about it.
Hey, I must remember to buy a big bathtub tomorrow!
Zhao Ling'er lay on the bed and thought about everything. After a while, she finally fell asleep in a daze.
Time passes quietly in sleep.
Suddenly, Ayao turned over and woke up Zhao Ling'er from her sleep!
The watchman's voice came from the street: It's five o'clock in the morning, go to bed early and get up early, take care of yourself!
It's 3 o'clock.
I can sleep a little longer.
Zhao Ling'er was in a daze and just about to fall asleep when she suddenly remembered that it was her first time to go to the Yingbin Building from here today. She didn't know if there was a carriage nearby, so it would be better to get up early!
It seems that if you have money, you should buy a carriage and hire a driver to drive you, otherwise it will be too troublesome to always find someone!
I don’t know if Zhou You’s anger has subsided, but I still want to treat him to hot pot tonight!
Zhao Ling'er thought while washing.
After cleaning up, Zhao Ling'er put 10 coins on the table and left a note for A Yao: You can buy breakfast by yourself and I'll leave first.
Looking around, everything was normal, Zhao Linger gently opened the door.
It was still dark all around.
Zhao Ling'er followed the night through the small streets and came to the main road.
Standing at the entrance of Wenda Bookstore, looking forward, the straight road was empty and there was not a single carriage.
Oops, I forgot to make an appointment for a carriage yesterday! Zhao Ling'er complained to herself as she walked forward along the road.
At the end of this road there is a crossroads.
Which way to go?
Zhao Ling'er vaguely felt that she came back from the left side yesterday, so she should be walking to the right now.
The Yingbin Building is in the south, and the Wenda Bookstore is a little to the west. So I just need to go out and go to the right and keep walking forward. Zhao Ling'er silently planned the route.
She was a road fool in modern times, but she didn't expect that she would not change her nature after traveling through time.
There was no one on the road.
Zhao Ling'er walked quickly.
Suddenly, she saw smoke coming from a shop in front of her. It must also be a breakfast shop, and she ran over.
It is indeed a breakfast shop!
A slightly fat middle-aged woman was bending over to carry a steamer.
"Hello, aunt, how can I get to Yingbin Building?" Zhao Ling'er asked.
The middle-aged woman slowly stopped what she was doing, wiped her hands, glanced at Zhao Ling'er, then turned to call the person inside: "Dad, someone is asking for directions."
At this time, a thin, middle-aged man wearing a slit jacket came out, looked at Zhao Ling'er, and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Oh, uncle, how to get to Yingbin Building?" Zhao Ling'er asked hurriedly.
"You're going in the opposite direction! Where did you come from?"
"Wenda Bookstore."
"When you reach the intersection, you should turn left and go to Songyang Avenue, go all the way to the end, then take Yunding Lane, cross Yunding Lane and then go to Nijia Village, go through Nijia Village and go eastward until you reach
Luoping Road, just keep walking along Luoping Road and you will arrive.”
Zhao Ling'er looked at the uncle making gestures and directing his fingers back and forth. She had long since lost track of what he was talking about.
After the uncle finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Ling'er with a look like "Do you understand?"
Zhao Ling'er forced a smile and said, "Okay, I understand, thank you!" Then she bent down and bowed, turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
Zhao Ling'er wanted to cry but had no tears. She walked along this road and reached the end. What next?
What village? What alley?
She didn't remember it at all.
Let's go first and ask as we go.
Zhao Ling'er walked along the road until she reached the intersection at the end, when she suddenly saw an inn in front of her called Yongchang Inn.
Eh? I can ask if there is a carriage here! Zhao Linger suddenly remembered.
She ran in happily.
The breakfast place in the lobby of this inn is exactly the same as the one she had in Junpeng Inn before!
Is this also the breakfast business of Asan Alley?
Without any time to think about it, Zhao Ling'er walked to the front desk and asked the waiter: "Do you have any coachmen here who can hit the road right now?"
The waiter said, "Wait a minute, I'll call someone." He walked towards the backyard.
Zhao Ling'er finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked around the hall.
The furnishings here are indeed exactly the same as her previous furnishings. However, the person responsible for the management and management is not Ah San, but another guy wearing coarse cloth.
Zhao Ling'er walked over and asked, "Is your shopkeeper's name Ah San?"
The man turned around, frowned and said, "Our shopkeeper's name is Zhou Yongchang."
Zhao Linger suddenly remembered that the name of this inn was Yongchang.
oh!
Zhao Ling'er nodded slightly. Could it be that Ah San's business can't continue?
After a while, a man wearing a headscarf came out of the backyard, glanced at Zhao Ling'er, and asked, "Miss, where are you going in the carriage?"
"Yingbin Building." Zhao Ling'er replied.
Perhaps because the destination was too high-end, the coachman suddenly became more energetic, cupping his hands and saying, "Girl, please wait a moment."
After that, I went to the backyard.
Not long after, he drove a carriage and appeared at the main entrance, shouting inside: "Girl, come out!"
Zhao Ling'er looked back and saw it, and hurriedly walked out and got into the carriage.
The carriage trotted all the way and took Zhao Ling'er to the Yingbin Building smoothly.
After getting off the carriage, Zhao Ling'er saw Zhou You moving bowls out.
Zhao Ling'er hurriedly ran in to work.
Neither of them spoke, each was busy with his own business.
After a while, a guest came.
When Zhou You received guests, Zhao Ling'er hurriedly put the pickles in.
