    Chapter 95

    There was no other way, Hua Yue could only go back to the previous restaurant and whispered to the shopkeeper, "Is there any room left?"

    The shopkeeper was clearing the account, and when he heard the words, he flipped through the booklet next to him: "The upper room and the wing room are full."

    Hua Yue frowned upon hearing this, thinking about whether to switch to another family. The shopkeeper, who was thinking about it, smiled when she saw her expression: "I'm going to the market today, and all the inns are full, so don't even think about looking elsewhere."

    How can this be good? Huayue swept towards the lobby and found that the table where Li Jingyun was sitting was empty, and she should have gone upstairs to rest.

    Following her gaze, the shopkeeper also remembered: "Have you been here before, with the guest with two children? Well, the guest is generous, and he is scheduled to go to the room. It's a step bed with two small couches, you can just go and squeeze it."

    The corner of her mouth twitched, Hua Yue shook her head: "It's not a family, it's not suitable."

    "Then there is no other room." The shopkeeper said earnestly, "You are a girl, you should follow your acquaintances, otherwise you don't know what will happen outside."

    Huayue was silent.

    The restaurant is brightly lit, and there are all kinds of three religions and nine styles in the lobby. It is noisy, and the smell of alcohol is fragrant.

    The bonsai upstairs shelters the noise from below.

    Li Jingyun sat in the room and watched the two children play on the stools, but out of the corner of his eyes, he glanced out the window.

    He opened the front window, and could see the movement in the corridor, but this was the upper room, and there were very few people walking around. After waiting for a long time, he did not see that person coming back to look for him.

    At first, he was calm and calm. The town is so big. Once the city gate is closed, there are no vacancies elsewhere in the inn, so she must have come back to him, but seeing the sky outside getting darker, Li Jingyun Unable to sit still, he opened the door and went out to find the guy, and asked, "Where's the man?"

    The guy received the reward. Knowing who he was asking, he said embarrassingly, "Master, I'm asleep."

    His face sank, and Li Jingyun stared at him.

    The man shuddered with fright, and hurriedly explained: "The shopkeeper said as you ordered, there is no room available, let her go upstairs, but the lady refused to do so, so she went to crowd the shop by herself."

    Where is Tongpu? Poor people who have no money are on their way and can't afford to stay in an inn, so they go to the Tongpu, which is dirty and messy. Li Jingyun sneered as soon as he heard it, pinching his sleeve robe and shaking it fiercely.

    The man took a few steps back in panic, and bowed to him: "There is no one else in the shop, the shopkeeper is cleared, only the lady is dirty, but no one will interfere with her, please cool down."

    How do you get rid of this anger? It has been so many years, and this man's bones are still so hard, he would rather be with snakes, worms, rats and ants than bow his head with him.

    "Big brother." Shi Xiang came out holding the pillow, rubbed his eyes and said, "When are we going to sleep?"

    As soon as he heard the child's voice, Li Jingyun suppressed his anger, waved his man away, turned around and said to Youjie, "Being a big brother, you should put your brother to sleep."

    Youjie was also very sleepy, barely opening his eyes and asking, "What about you?"

    "I'll go out for a walk and be back in a moment."

    Youjie nodded, knowing that there must be someone around to protect him, and he was not afraid, so he grabbed Shi Fang's shoulder and pushed him onto the bed.

    Shi Xiang murmured sleepily: "Why is your father unhappy? Every time I see him, he is unhappy."

    Youjie slapped him on the forehead: "That's your father too."

    "My father?" Shi Fang shook his head, "Mother said that my father is dead, and the grass on the grave is so high."

    There are prepositions, and the little head melon can't figure out the reason, so he can only ask: "What is the grave grass?"

    Shi Xiang was dazed for a while, then shook his head, he had never seen it, just heard what his mother said.

    "Then I know." Youjie pulled the quilt to cover the two of them, and said in a milky voice, "Daddy is very tall, and the grass on the grave is also very high, that father is the grass on the grave, and he is still your father, understand. Bar?"

    "Well, I see." Shi Xiang nodded seriously.

    The two little guys huddled together and fell asleep after a while. Li Jingyun stood at the door for a while and rolled his eyes a few times at the word "graveyard grass".

    "General, do you want to go back to the barracks?" Someone asked in the dark.

    Li Jingyun said angrily: "The city gates are closed, what kind of military camp are you going back to?"

    "Then, you won't rest?"

    With a cold snort, Li Jingyun didn't answer.

    Tongpu.

    Hua Yue is very glad that she is the only one in the whole room, but the bedding sheets are covered with a layer of dirt, which is really unbearable. She looked at it, found a relatively clean quilt to spread on the couch, and took off her own. The robe is like a quilt.

    She was really tired today, both physically and mentally, she needed a good night's sleep, so not long after lying down, Huayue's breathing became even and long.

    The lights in the shop are not turned off, the dim candlesticks cast their shadows on the mottled walls, the night wind whistling by twisting the old window sash, making a hoarse sound, there is no place to lean on the left or right of the shop, she huddles in. Above, like a weak shrimp.

    Li Jingyun stood by the door, staring at the shrimp for a long time with cold eyes.

    From the moment the late emperor died, he had become a powerful minister over ten thousand people in the capital. She had never seen so many people bowing down to please him, nor had she ever seen the beautiful hairpins who guarded near his mansion every day. As many as E has, as long as she is willing to stay in Jinghua, some have high beds and soft pillows.

    Xu Changyi got drunk once, and dared to say that she didn't love him anymore, didn't like anything, didn't want to see it, so she was willing to go to Jinghua.

    He doesn't believe it.

    She had put down all her guards to accept him sincerely, she had also sacrificed her life to protect him, stitched wounds for him, and kept lights for him. The most dangerous days have come together. How could she not like him when he was most famous? absurd.

    Besides, look, he is actually doing pretty well without her by his side, but she, without him by his side, will be bullied and slept in a bed. No matter how you look at it, she is more inseparable from him.

    Proudly pursing his lips, Li Jingyun hugged the quilt in his hand, climbed up onto the bunk lightly, spread a small space behind her, and then slowly lay down.

    In front of him was the back of his head that he hadn't seen for a long time. In addition to the rotten and unpleasant smell, there was also a hint of the fragrance of magnolia. Li Jingyun raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, bent his knees sideways, and became a little shrimp.

    He hadn't slept well in two years.

    The night wind outside the window was still whistling, the candlesticks were jumping, the walls were mottled with light and shadows, and there was still no place to rely on the shop, but the shrimp and rice became a pair.

    For some reason, Hua Yue's dream was full of shrimp, one after another, twisting her body and lining up in front of her, she knew she was hungry, and she reached out to grab it, but when she lifted her hand, she woke up.

    The sky outside was a little pale, and there were sounds of people walking in the inn. Hua Yue rubbed her eyes and looked down to find that she had a quilt on her body at some point. Looking around, there was still no one in the shop, but there was nothing on the table. Put a few dishes of side dishes and a bowl of porridge.

    "Are you awake?" Shopkeeper Zhao stood at the door and said with his back to her, "Yesterday I heard that the access control was closed early, I knew that you might not be able to make it back, and I told you to come to the humble house to rest for a while. I want to feel wronged here."

    Hua Yue was surprised, she quickly got up and put on her robe, washed her face in the basin next to her, and cleaned up.

    Seeing that she was not rude, she said embarrassedly, "Why did you come here?"

    "The shopkeeper here is my friend, who just came over for breakfast. He mentioned something." Shopkeeper Zhao turned to look at her and smiled, "Let's have dinner."

    Looking at the quilt on the bed, and the food on the table, Huayue was very moved: "I'm sorry to bother you."

    "You didn't treat me as a friend." Shopkeeper Zhao shook his head, "Next time you have nowhere to go, just come to me directly."

    "it is good."

    This person relies on loyalty to do business, and Huayue is not polite, smiling and agreeing, then sits at the table and devours it.

    She didn't eat dinner yesterday, and now she's hungry. The breakfast on the table was especially delicious, and she was moved: "It's really a blessing for me to meet such a noble person as the shopkeeper Zhao when I go out."

    Shopkeeper Zhao didn't know why. He just heard that she was here, so he came over to take a look, but he didn't do anything, but he had to flatter her.

    But a businessman, when people flatter him, he nods his head, and doesn't say much.

    This breakfast is very delicate, Huayue knows that she didn't give too much money, the inn is absolutely impossible to give it for free, most of it is the order of the shopkeeper Zhao, so he complimented him while eating: "You are such a considerate and meticulous person, it is rare in the world. Even if they get married a few years later, there are still girls who are willing to marry, so there is no need to worry about it."

    "Where is it?" The shopkeeper Zhao was so embarrassed that he took out the handkerchief and handed it to her, "Wipe your mouth."

    Huayue took it with a smile.

    Light-white fingers, brown-green silk handkerchiefs, and affectionate eyebrows. If this scene wasn't in the Tongpu room, what kind of love and concubines would have treated each other like a guest?

    Li Jingyun led the two children and stood at the door watching, one couldn't hold back and sneered.

    Hua Yue paused, looked up, and the smile on her face disappeared.

    "My lord got up early." Putting down the bowl, she got up and touched Youjie's head, then brought Shi Xiang back and saluted, "Thank you for taking care of me."

    Li Jingyun stepped into the door and glanced at the shopkeeper Zhao: "Meet again."

    Shopkeeper Zhao nodded very politely: "Fate."

    Who wants to have a relationship with you? Li Jingyun is such an annoyance. After he got up early to coax the children, there was a wild man in the house when he came back. Wasn't he intentional to respond. Especially Yin Huayue, she looks forward to seeing others, looking at the shy and timid eyes, she doesn't know what's so good about this person.

    "Go back to town." He said coldly, "Wen Guzhi drove the carriage outside."

    Hua Yue shook her head: "No need, I'll drive the car myself."

    "It costs money to drive." The shopkeeper Zhao said with a smile, "It just so happens that I'm going to the town, so I'll take you all the way."

    Li Jingyun: "..." This is what he wants to say.
