Two handsome and strong horses pulled the carriage and drove slowly through the bustling long street. The horses' hooves hit the ground, splashing up waves of sand and mist, and the bluestone slabs made a soft "squeaking" sound under the wheels.
.
The brilliant sunshine shines on the green tiles and red walls on both sides of the long street, the eaves like flying wings, the shop sign flags fluttering in the wind, the sparkling cars and horses, the endless pedestrians, the
The calm and comfortable smiling faces all represent the people of the capital who are satisfied with the prosperous Ming Dynasty.
"Hey, Zhu Pingan, where is your toad's nest?"
In the carriage, Li Shu glanced at Zhu Pingan, held a handkerchief in her delicate hand and covered her nose, and asked in a low voice.
Toad's Nest? Toad, your sister, this stinky girl is really as vicious as ever, stinky, arrogant, and arrogant! Such a good face is really wasted!
"Inside Chongren Gate, Dongsheng Inn." Zhu Ping'an closed his eyes to rest and calmly replied.
Hearing this, Li Shu glanced at the little maid Baozi, and then the little maid Baozi poked her little head out of the car door and whispered to the driver who was driving the horse outside. The driver of the horse agreed and drove the carriage towards Chongren Gate.
"Dongsheng Inn, it's such a vulgar name, it must be a small inn, but it's enough to be your toad's nest." Li Shu glanced at her small mouth with disdain, and then rolled her eyes.
"This is a humble house, but I am virtuous." Zhu Pingan twitched the corners of his lips lightly.
"Chi~"
Li Shuqiong's nose twitched, her dark eyes glanced at Zhu Ping'an, and she laughed endlessly.
Listening to Li Shu's sneer, Zhu Ping'an opened his eyes slightly, glanced at Li Shu, and closed his eyes again with a smile but not a smile.
After a while, the carriage passed Chongren Gate along the long street and came to the east end of the long street. A towering building suddenly stood in front of the eyes, making people take a second look. In front of the building, there was a long flag with the words Dongsheng
The word inn is four words. It is tall and tall, with outstanding stature. It is the most eye-catching building on this street. The inn is a three-story building, but it occupies a very large area. It occupies the east side of the street, as if this long street has raised its strong arms.
.Warmly welcome guests from afar.
When the carriage stopped outside Dongsheng Inn, Li Shu got off the carriage and looked at the obviously high-end inn in front of her. She couldn't help but open her mouth in surprise.
"Where is this?" Li Shu looked up and down at the inn, full of disbelief.
"A toad's nest in someone's mouth."
Zhu Ping'an slightly raised the corners of his lips, said lightly, and then walked in first.
"Zhu Pingan, wait for me."
Li Shu raised her head and looked at Zhu Pingan entering the inn. She couldn't help but pursed her lips, muttered something about pulling, called Zhu Pingan, and then followed her into the inn.
"Master Zhu, you have finished the exam. I just thought that the master will be back soon and the hot water has been boiled for him. Oh, by the way. I heard the magpie calling at the window of the master for a long time. The magpie announced the good news. The master is here.
The next time I will take an exam at Dingran High School, I thanked the young master in advance."
As soon as Li Shu entered the inn, she saw a waiter who was extremely attentive and bent his waist, saying flattering words in front of Zhu Pingan.
"This is the young madam. Hello, young madam. The young madam is like a fairy descending to earth. The young master is so lucky."
When the waiter saw Li Shu, he immediately said hello to Li Shu in a flattering manner and started complimenting her again.
"You have taken care of me these days. Let's take a look at the paintings."
After hearing the waiter call her young lady, Li Shu's pretty face blushed slightly. She was secretly happy and her eyebrows were raised a little, but her face was calm and calm. She glanced at Hua'er and gave instructions.
"Okay, you go and do your work."
The little maid of Baozi took one of the n number of red envelopes she had prepared earlier. She tipped it to the waiter and then opened it.
"Thank you, Madam, for the reward."
The waiter in the shop weighed the red envelope and smiled like a flower.
Li Shu followed Zhu Pingan upstairs with her little maid Hua'er and asked the others to wait downstairs. When she arrived at Zhu Pingan's room, Li Shu opened her mouth again, surprised by the luxurious decoration in Zhu Pingan's room.
.
"Why are you willing to live here?" Li Shu asked after entering the room.
"A few days ago, there was an event at the inn. If you make friends through literature, you can get free board and lodging for a month if you show all the couplets. Well, that's it, you can stay for more than half a month." Zhu Pingan said lightly, and then
Then he put his luggage on the ground.
"Why are you still holding it? Throw it away. It tastes so bad." Li Shu looked at the luggage Zhu Pingan put down and pinched Qiong's nose, full of disgust.
"Excuse me, please step aside. I need to change clothes." Zhu Pingan glanced at Li Shu and said calmly.
"You bastard, no one would care to look at you!"
Li Shu rolled her eyes and pouted at Zhu Pingan.
Zhu Ping'an ignored Li Shu and walked to the cabinet, opened it and took out a set of clothes.
"Yeah, you want to wear this."
Li Shu looked at the clothes Zhu Ping'an took out, her pretty face was full of disgust, her dark eyes were full of disgust, and she sent Hua'er downstairs to get the clothes. "Hua'er, go downstairs and get the clothes I prepared.
Come up."
Hua'er responded and went downstairs.
After Hua'er went downstairs, Li Shu came to Zhu Pingan and said seriously, "Zhu Pingan, you also know that this birthday party is very important. As long as my father is coaxed, I can go back and ask him to break off the engagement.
And, well, everyone in the house knows that we are engaged, so we have to pretend to be nice, so don’t mess up the act, and don’t think too much about it.”
"As for what?" Zhu Ping'an looked at the serious Li Shu, always feeling that there was something weird somewhere. He was about to break off the engagement, so why did he still act like this?
"Why not? If you perform well at the birthday banquet, dad will be happy; if dad is happy, I can go back and cancel the engagement. You don't like this marriage, right? Then we can make an agreement." Li Shu looked at Zhu
Ping An, with his serious look, makes people look very convincing.
Zhu Ping'an looked at Li Shu for two seconds, and then nodded. When Li Shu saw this, there was a hint of joy on her pretty face, and her brows and eyes were full of excitement.
"I just buy the clothes for random people, don't think too much about it."
When the footsteps of Little Maid Baozi approached, Li Shu said something again, as if she was afraid that Zhu Pingan would misunderstand.
Soon, the little maid Baozi went upstairs with a bundle in her arms. She held the bundle in front of Li Shu as if she were offering a treasure, followed closely by two healthy servants who brought up a bucket of steaming bath water.
After carrying the hot water upstairs and putting it in the bedroom, he went downstairs.
"It's so dirty. Please brush yourself properly."
Li Shu glanced at Zhu Pingan with disdain and led the little maid Baozi to the outside to pack clothes, leaving Zhu Pingan to take a shower in the bedroom. (To be continued.)
