Chapter 27

Cheng Xue and the two arrived at Shushan Town, but they couldn't reach Maozheng, but there was a long queue in front of the gate of Dongcheng.

They all came from Shushan Town, and some went to Fucheng.Some also went to the county seat.

Without a guarantee, you can only drive here for five days, and if you exceed five days, you have to be guaranteed by Lizheng or someone else.Patriarchs and scholars are not qualified.

After a series of cumbersome procedures have been completed, it is already time.

As the old saying goes, "get up early to catch the evening show", they are talking about it now.

Cheng Xue looked at Lu Yin speechlessly, sighed and complained softly:
"Fortunately, I came here early, otherwise I wouldn't be able to leave at noon. This would be too tedious and a waste of effort."

Li Hui thought so too, and told her to pack Lu Yin and hire a car to the west.All the trips out of the town must be in horse-drawn carriages. Although the price is high, they are safe and guaranteed.The wheels are high, and the official road will not be bumpy.

Li Hui found a relatively cheap carriage, settled Cheng Xue, and sat outside to chat with the driver.She looked at the eye-catching "five days" in cinnabar, which was obviously different from the Lu Yin that Xiao Qinglin had seen before.

He yawned and leaned on the carriage to rest his eyes and close his eyes.

To be honest, having this teammate is so worry-free, she doesn't have to worry about it at all.

It's just that he keeps changing his face, which is very worrying!
Drowsy and wobbly, when she opened her eyes again, Li Hui was drinking water.

"What, are you thirsty?"

Faced with her jokes, Li Hui was not to be outdone.

"It's amazing, sleeping for so long."

Cheng Xue took a sip from the water bag he handed over, and asked:
"Are you in Pingyang County?"

"Just entered the city." Li Hui nodded, "Master Gong will take us to the inn now. We will take his car when we get back. I've made an appointment with him."

"Okay, you can arrange it." She had no objection.

"Just trust me like that? Are you afraid that I'll sell you?" Li Hui teased with raised eyebrows.

Cheng Xue shrugged indifferently, curled her lips and said:

"If you want to raise two sons and two daughters alone, just sell it, I didn't say anything."

Li Hui chuckled twice, moved his position, sat next to her and said:
"It's impossible for me to sell you, but will you lose me?"

What?
Before Cheng Xue could ask him what he meant, the carriage stopped suddenly.

"Huizi, the inn is here."

"Ah, here we come."

Li Hui went out in response, and Cheng Xue once again admired his communication skills.

During the three-hour drive, the coachman already affectionately called him "Huizi".

Standing in front of the car, looking up at the plaque - Penglai Inn.

The name is easy to understand, and the price should not be cheap.

Li Hui pulled her clothes and went in, feeling sad.

This is the place where the original owner lived with his father during his first scientific examination. After all these years, the door has been widened, the plaque has been changed, and everything has changed.The people who come here again have also changed.

"Old Hao, this is my regular customer. If you are troubled, help find a better house. The price should not be too expensive."

"Don't worry, old Gong, I have neglected the person you lead before."

After Hao shopkeeper finished speaking, he cupped his hands at Li Hui and said with a smile:
"The guest officer, please show me the way to get off. I'll take you upstairs to see the room after I've seen it."

Cheng Xue handed Lu Yin to Li Hui, complaining about the web articles she had read in her heart again.Those heroines who run away at every turn can only survive in the Internet.

Looking at the inn in front of you, there is a row of water signs above the counter, and the price is below the name of the dish, which is clear at a glance.

They are all home-cooked dishes, the vegetarian ones cost more than a dozen cents a plate, and the ones with meat can’t be seen, they are too expensive and outrageous.

The stairs are on the right, and the guest room is on the second floor.It's fine to live now, I'm afraid it will be cold if I live in winter.

Could it be that the earth dragon of the Liangyan Dynasty can reach the second floor?
Shopkeeper Hao looked at Lu Yin, took the key and led them upstairs.Master Gong is quite responsible and has been by the side.

The room is at the end of the corridor. When the door is opened, there is a bed that can sleep two people, a table, and two chairs.

Shopkeeper Hao closed the window, rubbed his hands and asked:
"What do you guys think of this room? Normally, this room costs 150 Wen for one night. You are introduced by Lao Gong, so I will charge you [-] Wen. There is enough hot water and charcoal fire to ensure that you will not sleep cold at night. "

Cheng Xue knew that the prices in the county would be high, but it cost 150 Wen for one night, which was really too expensive.But she didn't say a word. When she was away from home, the man called the shots, so she just listened.

Seeing that Li Hui was silent, Master Gong clicked his tongue and said:

"Old Hao, this is my regular customer. Why don't you have to provide breakfast for their husband and wife. It's not the busy season for scientific examinations, so show some face, okay?"

Shopkeeper Hao looked embarrassed, so Li Hui simply gave him a step up.

"If you can provide me and my wife with breakfast as Master Gong said, then we will tentatively book for three nights. If we stay on the fourth day, we will tell you the night before."

"Okay, that's okay. I'll ask the guy to bring the charcoal basin up now, let's go downstairs and make a record?"

Li Hui smiled and said "Okay", then turned around and told Cheng Xue to say:
"Rest in the house for a while, and I will come up later."

"understood."

After Cheng Xue sent them out, she hung up the door and began to check the room.

Knock, knock, check, can the windows be hung, is there a hidden compartment under the bed...

In modern times, she has to check the hotel room every time she travels on business, which has become a habit.

After making sure that there was nothing unusual under the bed, she let out a long sigh of relief as she touched the mattress.

Fortunately, it's quite thick, so I won't sleep well at night.There are two quilts so that there is no embarrassment.

Just as she was thinking, footsteps came from outside, she got up and opened the door latch.

Seeing Li Hui enter the room with the quilt in his arms, he wondered:

"Where did it come from?"

"I asked for it from shopkeeper Hao. I think the quilt is too thin, so I put it on it to keep warm when I sleep at night."

"You are really careful." Cheng Xue said as she took the quilt and put it on the bed.

The staff brought the charcoal basin and kettle, Li Hui hung up the door and looked around the room.Just like Cheng Xue's inspection just now, she knocked eastward and looked westward, even under the bed.

After reading everything, I sat down next to her and said:
"I asked just now that Sheng Ren Tang is the best place to see a doctor. We'll go there after we finish eating. Yaxing is on the street behind the inn. We'll go there after breakfast tomorrow.

Shopkeeper Hao said that the housing prices here have dropped recently, and if the owner of a five-room house catches up with the owner and is anxious to sell it, he can buy it for 200 taels. "

Not only did they bring the exchanged bank notes, they also brought the one that Xiao Qinglin gave.

"It's really so cheap. If you have a surplus after buying the house, buy a shop. Rent it out and eat the rent first, and give Tangtang a dowry later."

"Okay, let's go now?"

"Let's go." Cheng Xue smiled and pulled his sleeve out.

The keys have been given to them, the windows are closed and the door is locked, and the money is kept close to the body, so they are not afraid of losing things.

When I went downstairs, I happened to meet shopkeeper Hao. He was very talkative. After asking them where to go, he enthusiastically recommended the wonton stall diagonally opposite.

"...His wontons are big and affordable. There are ten in a bowl. You can add noodles if you don't have enough. Adding noodles is only ten yuan, which is cheaper than going to a restaurant."
