78: Keep thinking back

Xia Ziying, who was upstairs, could see clearly. She didn't expect that these officers and soldiers were still so abiding by the rules and did not come up to arrest her. Thinking about it, they must be Mu Lianlong's subordinates. It seems that he really taught them a lot.

.

I tried my best to avoid his tracking, but I didn't expect that he would still find me. But what I didn't expect was that he would use such a method to force me. I knew that I was a kind-hearted person, but I couldn't bear to hurt the store owner.

It's a bit too much to force yourself to walk down, but when you look at the bitter look on the face of the shop owner downstairs, it's not easy for him to do business. He just wants to make a profit on himself, but he didn't expect to get into such a thing.

, to be honest, I can’t deal with the hotel owner psychologically.

After Xia Ziying secretly returned to the room, her hesitant heart began to struggle again. Can't she go down? At this time, she kept thinking about it in her mind, thinking a lot, but she didn't make up her mind to encourage herself to go downstairs.

Seeing that the shop owner was about to cry, I was embarrassed to think about it, so I simply packed up my clothes, took a deep breath, strode out the door, and looked down, the shop owner

With sharp eyes, he may have been watching the movement in this direction since just now. Once he discovered it, he immediately reacted.

"Hey, look, the girl is out." The shop owner shouted anxiously. After hearing the shop owner's voice, the leading officers and soldiers glanced upstairs, and then saluted naturally: "Excuse me, is this girl like you?"

?”

Xia Ziying did not answer, but continued walking downstairs, slowly walked up the stairs, and asked: "Did your prince ask you to find me?" There was no emotion in her voice, a pure questioning tone.

"Miss Hui Wanru, yes, the prince got the news and knew that the girl was in this inn, so he asked me to lead the troops to find the girl. I hope the girl can go back with me." The leader spoke very respectfully and looked very polite.

Her humble appearance surprised the shop owner and the waiter on the side. It seemed like this girl was not a thief, but an important person of the prince. Their faces suddenly turned pale as they took the prince's things.

, now that I was feeling better, the waiter unconsciously cast a very sympathetic look at the shop owner.

"What if I don't go back? What will you do to me?" Xia Ziying said in a very insistent tone, staring at the officers and soldiers in front of her.

"This? I don't know. I can only stay here until the girl agrees to go back." The leader replied helplessly. When he came, the prince gave many instructions and told him that he must bring someone back, otherwise

I will definitely practice military law. Thinking of that military law makes me shudder.

"Haha, you really dare to stay here." Xia Ziying sneered, then walked down and sat on a stool to the side.

"I don't dare. It's just the order I received. I don't dare to disobey it." The leader continued to reply.

"Okay, I won't make it difficult for you. I'll go back with you." Xia Ziying glanced at the helpless expression of the leader and the irritable look of the store owner, and then said.

After saying this, it was obvious that the leader and the store owner were relieved, and everyone's expressions immediately improved, especially the store owner.

"Then thank you girl." After saying that, she was about to walk towards the door. Xia Ziying took a look, and when she was about to stand up, she suddenly thought of something and asked the leader of the store.

"Brother Bing, do you have any money with you?"

The leader was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the question meant, so he replied: "Well, there is some money."

Xia Ziying smiled and looked at the shop owner, "Boss, calculate the rent for the past few days. If I can get someone to give you money, I can give you back my pair of white jade hairpins!"

When the shop owner heard what Xia Ziying said, he immediately became happy and said, "Okay, girl, I know you are a nice person, so I will pay you the bill right now." He quickly asked the clerk on the counter to settle the bill, and he walked towards the back.

It seemed that he had gone to get the pair of white jade hairpins. He came out after a while, holding a white jade hairpin wrapped in silk.

Xia Ziying took the white jade hairpin handed over by the shop owner, opened it and took a look, then asked with a smile: "Have you figured it out? How much silver?"

The shop owner glanced at the account book on the counter and said with a smile: "The bus fare is ten taels, the girl withdrew ten taels, the rent is another ten taels, plus clothes and food, it is another ten taels, a total of forty taels." After finishing speaking,

He walked up to Xia Ziying with a smile.

After Xia Ziying heard this, she glanced at the leading officer and soldier. He walked over consciously, with a slightly ugly expression on his face. He took out his purse from his waist, opened it, counted it, and looked at it a little embarrassed.

Looking at Xia Ziying, she turned to the others and said, "Whoever has any more money, bring it over!" As soon as he finished speaking, several subordinates handed their wallets to the leader, who collected enough forty taels from it and threw it away.

He stood on the counter and muttered to himself, "It's so damn expensive, profiteer!"

After hearing this, Xia Ziying's face twitched and she almost laughed. The shop owner looked ugly, and she was embarrassed to say it. She lived in a good place, had good food and clothing, and even the drivers were experienced masters.

, the price was already a good deal, but he was called a profiteer, and I felt really aggrieved, but since I could just get the money back, nothing else mattered, so I greeted the girl with a smile and sent the girl off respectfully.
