A few people put their things away, asked for water to wash up, sprinkled a handful of wheat on the table for Mazi to eat, and then went to the lobby on the first floor to eat.

Zhao Wu ordered a plate of braised pork head, a plate of roasted pork, two vegetarian dishes, a small pot of wine and five bowls of rice.

The waiter shouted the name of the dish loudly, then bowed and said, "Sir, please wait a moment, miss. The food and wine will be here soon."

Zhao Wu looked around, his eyes shrank, his head tilted towards Xu Lanyin and he said in a voice that only she could hear, "Why do I feel like something is wrong here?"

Xu Lanyin's heart tightened and she glanced around the lobby unintentionally.

Counting their table, there were seven tables in the lobby, five of which were occupied by men, and two of which had women and children. A few little beggars were walking among them begging for money. The next table offered steamed buns and was unwilling to take them. There was only a three-year-old child.

The beggar seemed to be starving, so he took the steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth quickly. There were two beggars who seemed to be mute, they could only stretch out their hands but not speak.

The waiter cursed, "Get out, get out, don't disturb the guests."

He scolded fiercely, but the beggar didn't seem to be afraid. The little beggar who asked for a few pennies ran out happily, and a new little beggar ran in.

The little beggar who was eating steamed buns also ran out. As soon as he left the inn door, he was slapped on the ground by a man in his forties outside. He didn't dare to cry.

The little beggar's disheveled hair hangs down below his ears. His face and clothes are so dirty that you can't tell the color. He has no shoes on, and his two dirty black feet are exposed. He can only see his beautiful big eyes, which are dark and dark.

His eyelashes were bright, and his eyelashes were very long. Perhaps he was too thin, which made his eyes look bigger and rounder. At this time, there were two bags of tears in his eyes, like black glass soaked in water.

When he got up, the two black glasses accidentally looked towards the lobby, and happened to meet Xu Lanyin's eyes. He saw those eyes full of pity and tenderness looking at him, just like his mother looking at him, the little beggar's eyes.

The tears couldn't help falling anymore, and two curved "white lines" flowed across my face.

The beggar who had just beaten him became even more angry when he saw him crying. He slapped him twice in the mouth and cursed a few times in a low voice. A half-grown beggar came over and dragged the little beggar away like a broom.

Xu Lanyin's heart was in knots. She couldn't bear to see her child being abused at such a young age. But she couldn't help at this time and had to find out the situation here first.

What's more, the shopkeeper behind the counter seems to be thinking about something, but he will glance at their table from time to time, and spend a little more time on Xu Lanyin.

With a master like Zhao Wu around, Xu Lanyin wasn't very scared.

She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and whispered, "Don't eat the food here yet. I'll go and have a word with the shopkeeper to find out what's going on."

When Zhao Wu touched his nose with his hand, he asked in a low voice, "Are you okay? I'd better go."

"No, I'll go."

Xu Lanyin stood up and wanted to follow the chess player, but she pinned her down on the chair.

Xu Lanyin came to the counter, put her hands on the counter, and asked in Qin's southern accent, "Uncle, I heard that the best embroidery studio in Feng County is Wang Sanniang Embroidery Studio. How do I get there?"

The shopkeeper is in his forties, slightly fat, with a goatee and a smiling face. He said with a smile, "Wang Sanniang Embroidery Workshop is indeed the best embroidery workshop in Feng County, comparable to Lanxin Embroidery Workshop in the provincial capital. Wang Sanniang Embroidery Workshop is in

South Street is far away from us. It’s closed now. Girl, go tomorrow..."

Xu Lanyin asked with a smile, "What are the specialties here? I want to take some back home."

The shopkeeper answered the questions very patiently, with a kind, polite and considerate face.

But I was thinking in my heart that I haven't seen such a beautiful little sheep for a long time. Although it is not the most stunning beauty, it makes people want to stop looking at it. Such a good product can be sold to the south for one thousand taels of silver.

, it’s a pity that for the sake of money, I can’t open the package for Xiao Meiyang in person...

He quickly glanced at Zhao Wu's table, and then thought about it. The little skinny lamb was used by the brothers to have fun, and then they drank dumb medicine and sold it to the mountains. The little lamb was mute and begged for food. What about those two rams?

The old one was sold to a private mine. It would have been nice if the young one was not Lian Jiazi. It would be a pity to kill him...

His heart is as evil as a devil, but his face is kind and kind.

Xu Lanyin was shocked. She suppressed her panic, nausea and disgust, and smiled, "Oh, I understand, thank you, shopkeeper."

"No thanks, no thanks." The shopkeeper smiled kindly.

Xu Lanyin returned to the table and sat down. Several dishes were already placed on the wine table.

She wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and whispered, "Don't eat. Find a way to get back to the house."

Zhao Wuwei nodded slightly. He very generously threw a silver dime to a little beggar. The eyes of several other little beggars shone green and they all ran over to him and asked for money.

Zhao Wu was annoyed, frowned and cursed, "No more, no more, get out."

The little beggars finally met a generous "rich man" who was willing to leave. Some pulled his clothes and hugged his arms, shouting, "Master, please have mercy on us, Master, please have mercy on us..."

Xu Lanting was so frightened that he shrank into Zhao Wu's arms.

Zhao Wuqi said, "It's so noisy. There's no way to eat here. Let's go back to the room to eat." After saying that, he picked up Xu Lanting and got up and walked upstairs.

Xu Lanyin and Zhang Qi followed closely behind.

Ding Gu, who was walking behind, said to the waiter, "Can you please bring the wine and food into our room? It's too noisy here and my father doesn't like it."

Several people went directly into Zhao Wu's room.

The waiter put the food and wine on the table and went out.

Zhao Wu listened to the waiter's footsteps gradually walking away before closing the door. He listened again to the door to make sure there was no one outside, and then asked quietly, "Is something wrong here?"

Xu Lanyin whispered, "Well, can we check out and leave now?"

Zhao Wu said, "If something is wrong, they may have tampered with the mule or mule cart. Seeing us insisting on going out, they will guess that we are aware of it and will not let us go easily. It is dark now,

Doing things outside is even more unpredictable."

He is not afraid of those people, but he is afraid that they will hurt the Xu Lanyin siblings when he fights. It would be nice if there were two more helpers.

Then he asked, "What did you find out?"

Xu Lanyin couldn't say that she heard the shopkeeper's thoughts, so she said in a deep voice, "That shopkeeper is not a good person, this inn is probably a den of thieves who kill people and sell goods. I asked him how to get to Wang Sanniang Embroidery Workshop, and he told the inn to Xisantiao Street.

We’re here. Wang Sanniang’s embroidery shop is obviously on South Street, next to the Chengnan Inn where we stayed twice before. Going west won’t it mean that we’re getting further and further out of the way.”

She changed the shopkeeper's words.

Zhao Wu frowned and said, "He told this lie because he probably thinks that we won't survive tomorrow, or that we won't be able to leave this inn or go to the embroidery workshop tomorrow. Those beggars seem to be raised by them. They want money, and they want it."

If you can't find it, steal it. One of my jade pendants was stolen by them."
