Longqing Building is the largest restaurant and inn in Huaxi Town. The front building is used as a restaurant and the back building is used as accommodation.
Zihua entered the restaurant first, and the waiter was stunned for a moment before coming over to greet her, "Girl, please come in."
Although the Daqi Dynasty allowed women to go out alone, the folk customs in Huaxi Town were not as civilized as those in the capital, and it was rare for young women to eat alone in restaurants.
The waiter saw that the clothes Zihua wore were of fine workmanship and that she could afford wine and food, so he invited her in without asking her purpose.
Zi Hua let the waiter kindly lead him upstairs where there were relatively few people, and sat down.
The waiter reported the names of the dishes, and Zihua ordered a few of the restaurant's special dishes. She gave the waiter a small piece of silver and said, "Fetch Ding Jinbao. I have something to ask him."
The silver was saved by Yu Xi. It was not much, about a dozen taels. She threw it into the space casually at that time and now uses it.
Ding Jinbao is the waiter in the guest room and does not work in the hotel.
The guy took advantage of it and agreed immediately.
After a while, a short young waiter came to Zihua's table, smiled and bowed to Zihua, "I am Ding Jinbao, what do you want from me?"
"More than ten days ago, those two strangely dressed foreign men who lived in Longqing Tower, where did they come from?"
The smile on Ding Jinbao's face turned into a bitter smile, "It turns out we were looking for those two men again. They only stayed in our hotel for three days, and they caused a lot of trouble..."
It was a small matter for the two of them to book a carriage and not sit in it.
There is a lot of fuss in the town about picking and tasting the fruits grown by other people without permission, whether they are ripe or not.
In broad daylight, I climbed up on the wall of another house and peeped in. There was a family with a widowed sister who had returned home, and two people climbed up the wall of the backyard. In order to show that they had no connection with the two, the sister of that family almost hanged herself.
Fortunately, it was broad daylight and the two of them did not jump into the yard, but just looked inside for a while. That family was not pedantic, otherwise, their lives would have been lost.
On the fourth day, the two of them left at some point. The money deposited in the store was not enough to pay for the food and drink for the two of them in the restaurant.
In short, it was Longqing Tower that lost some money.
Later I heard that when they were in the county town, they were so bold that they went to the county government office and got into a fight with the government officials. For some reason, the county magistrate told the government officials to leave them alone, and they walked around the county government office before leaving.
.
In the following days, people came to Longqing Tower one after another to inquire about the whereabouts of the two people.
Some Ding Jinbao knew why they were looking for these two people, like the man who had them climb up the wall.
Some people came to see them without telling them why. Ding Jinbao didn't know what they had done, so he could only tell them that they had left long ago.
This was also the reason why he didn't ask Zi Hua why he was looking for the two of them.
When the people who were looking for the two heard about their incident at the county government office, they had no choice but to leave the matter alone.
"The names of the two people registered at the inn are quite strange. One is Ximen Guan and the other is Ximen Chui. It sounds like they are two brothers, but their appearance is completely different, which is also strange."
"Huh?" System 01 said to Zi Hua, "these two people's names are a bit familiar."
Zihua asked Ding Jinbao, "What is the name of the one with the fair face?"
"The one with the pale face is called Ximen Guan, and the other always calls him Guanzi. The two of them said they were from Linzhou, but privately they don't speak Linzhou dialect, and they speak the dialect of Huaxi Town."
Zihua also gave Ding Jinbao a dime of silver, and then gave him a larger dime, "Book a room for me."
"Okay. What's your name, girl? Where are you from? It's good for registration."
Some of the things she did may not be in line with the concepts of this era.
I won’t use Ruan Yinqiao’s name to avoid giving her a bad reputation.
Ruan Yinqiao only wants revenge and does not care about her family members, so there is no need to bear her identity.
The surname Ruan is at least a common surname in Qianzhou Prefecture where Huaxi Town is located. There are many people with the surname Ruan, so there is no need to worry about anyone contacting Ruan Yinqiao.
Fortunately, Huaxi Town is a small town and there is no need for road guidance to get in or out, which saves a lot of trouble.
"I'll help Miss Ruan right now." Ding Jinbao bowed to Zihua again and left quickly.
"Host, these two people didn't travel through time, right? Look at their names, Ximen Guan - Ximen Daguanren, Ximen Chui - Ximen Chuixue.
And their Taoist priests’ hair buns and those things they did. But it doesn’t make sense. After traveling through time in such a public way, aren’t you afraid of being caught and burned as a monster?”
Zi Hua said, "Maybe they are not afraid. I didn't hear what Ding Jinbao said, but the county magistrate didn't care and let the two of them wander around the county government office."
"That's because the two of them traveled through time and have a high status. Why didn't they follow the entourage because of their high status? They were also dressed in nondescript clothes."
After a while, the food arrived. The color, aroma and taste were all good. Wuhua had a full meal.
Ding Jinbao had been waiting aside for a long time. When he saw that Zihua had finished eating, he hurriedly came over and took her to the backyard.
The upper room on the second floor was assigned to Zihua. It is divided into inner and outer rooms and is spacious and bright.
This room is facing the stream, with a wide view outside the window and a great view.
"Miss Ruan, do you have any other instructions?"
"there is none left."
"Then I won't waste Miss Ruan's time. If you have anything to do when you go out, just call me." Ding Jinbao helped Zihua close the door.
"Host, the person who has been watching you quietly while eating just now went upstairs. Maybe he came for the host."
Zihua sat down on the chair by the window, "Yeah."
Her temporary decision to live here had something to do with her discovery of this man. He had no ill intentions towards her and probably wanted to say something to her, but it was not convenient to say it in a restaurant, so she stayed and found him for him.
Chance.
It just so happened that she needed to find a comfortable place to rest. If she didn't want to go into Lychee Space, she should go in as little as possible. Fang Tiandao didn't allow it, so she wouldn't force it.
In other people's territory, you have to respect their rules.
After a while, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened, and a man in his twenties stood at the door.
The man has a heroic figure, with a slender knife hanging from his waist.
The man gave a fist-cup salute to Zhou Hua at the door. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Zhou Hua say, "Come in and say something."
The only person Zihua saw in Huaxi Town who had developed internal strength was this person, so she was very interested in him.
"Thank you." The man walked into the room, and Zi Hua gestured towards the door, "You came all the way here, didn't you want to say something privately? Don't you want to close the door?"
"Miss Ruan, you're too abrupt." The man closed the door.
"Sit down." Zihua pointed to the chair opposite her.
The man sat down without any courtesy, sitting very upright, and hugged Yuhua again, "My surname is Lu, my name is Ting, and I am from Jianyang, Linzhou Prefecture.
I heard some of the conversation between Miss Ruan and the clerk just now, and I am also looking for those two men, so I want to ask Miss Ruan about something."
