Chai Yan and his party drove to a place called Fuyuan Town.
Cheng Jiu, who was driving, turned around and said to the car: "Brother, it's getting late. Why don't we stay in this town tonight? Otherwise, if we go further, it will be difficult to find a dormitory."
When Chai Yan heard the sound, he opened the car curtain. After looking at the situation outside, he nodded and said, "Okay, let's find an inn to stay."
"I understand, sir." Cheng Jiu agreed, and then drove the carriage towards Fuyuan Town.
On the way to the town, Jimo Qiao warned: "Brother-in-law, can you find a decent inn to stay in soon? Don't ever look for a place like yesterday again. Look at my hands and my neck.
And my feet and body...are all covered with insect bites. They itch even if I don’t scratch them, and they hurt when I scratch them. It’s so uncomfortable!”
While talking, Jimo Qiao showed Chai Yan the places on his hands and neck where he had bitten out small bumps.
Chai Yan nodded and said: "I know, I know, but there was nothing we could do yesterday. There was only one inn in the village, so where can we stay if we don't want to stay there? I promise you, I will definitely find a clean and high-end inn in the town to stay in today, okay?"
good?"
"Then you have to keep your word, otherwise I won't be done with you." Jimo Qiao looked extremely serious.
At this time, Chai Yan heard Shangguan Peining's voice: "Chai Yan, I have to say that your patience is really good enough. You can endure such a busy sister-in-law. I admire you. I admire you.
....."
Chai Yan's face remained as usual, but he felt helpless in his heart. He sighed secretly: "Oh! Who told her to be my wife's sister? It's a matter of loyalty to someone who has been entrusted by others. According to the current speed, it will be here in two days at most.
Jiezhou will be clean by then."
Along the way, Jimo Qiao would complain about many things. He would complain when the food tasted bad, and he would complain when the place he lived in was not clean. Even when he was bored on the road, he wanted Chai Yan to tell stories to relieve his boredom, but Chai Yan was not in the mood.
While speaking, he also made a lot of complaints.
Chai Yan had always felt relaxed whether he was walking with Yuan or Hang Baiqiu before, but this time with Jimo Qiao, his aunt, by his side, he felt a lot more tired.
However, Chai Yan didn't hate Jimo Qiao too much. Although she had many complaints and opinions, as long as Chai Yan made a decision, Jimo Qiao was still willing to obey it. Generally speaking, she didn't give any advice.
Everyone caused trouble and did not delay the speed of the journey.
After a while, the carriage drove onto the main street of Fuyuan Town.
Jimo Qiao lay beside the car window and kept looking around, hoping to find an inn that looked satisfactory to her.
And their carriage full of Taoist priests also aroused the memories of the people in Fuyuan Town.
Suddenly, Cheng Jiu slowed down his driving speed and asked, "Brother, what do you think of the inn in front of me?"
While he was talking, the carriage had stopped in front of the inn.
Jimo Qiao immediately leaned against the opposite car window, knelt on the seat cushion next to Chai Yan, slightly raised his buttocks and looked out.
Chai Yan then asked: "How is it? Are you satisfied with this place?"
Jimo Qiao shook his head in disgust and said, "This inn looks so small and old. It's not good. Let's look for another inn."
Cheng Jiu just wanted to stay and rest early, so he said: "How about this one? Although it is a bit older, it should look much better than the one yesterday."
Jimo Qiao said: "Don't worry, you have to shop around when buying things, let alone staying in an inn! I think this town is quite big, there must be more than just this inn, I guess there are better ones!"
Cheng Jiu then asked: "Brother, please make up your mind..."
As soon as Cheng Jiu finished asking, Jimo Qiao pushed Chai Yan and winked at him.
Chai Yan had no choice but to say: "Keep walking and take a look. This room is indeed a bit small."
Chai Yan's words immediately made Jimo Qiao grin.
Next, the carriage continued to travel along the street...
In this way, the carriage drove from the entrance to the end of the street. Jimo Qiao made several selections and finally decided on an inn that suited his eyes.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Jimo Qiao said to Cheng Jiu: "Don't move yet. I'll go in and have a look. If the room is clean enough, we'll live here."
After saying that, Jimo Qiao jumped off the carriage and quickly entered the inn.
Cheng Jiu looked at Jimo Qiao's back and couldn't help but shook his head and muttered: "It's really troublesome..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the car curtain opened, and Chai Yan stuck his head out and said, "Forget it, let her go. After all, girls will be picky because they don't go out often."
Cheng Jiu said, "But Madam and Chief Hang are also women, so they are not like this."
Chai Yan curled his lips and said: "Can it be compared? This one grew up in a honey pot..."
Yu Tie on the side smiled after hearing this.
Chai Yan said: "Be patient and hold on for two more days. It will be fine when we get to Gan's house in Jiezhou."
Cheng Jiu nodded, thinking that this was the only way.
After waiting for a short while, Jimo Qiao came out of the inn.
Seeing the smile on Jimo Qiao's face, Chai Yan guessed that she must be satisfied with this inn, so he said to Cheng Jiu and Yu Tiedao: "Okay, you can go to the back and park the horse to feed the horses..."
After that, Chai Yan got out of the car, carrying his big gourd behind him.
"Senior brother, I've seen the room inside. It's very clean. I'm quite satisfied." Jimo Qiao said.
Chai Yan smiled and nodded: "As long as you are satisfied."
Then, Chai Yan and Jimo Qiao walked to the inn.
Jimo Qiao said as he walked: "Brother, just like last time, I asked for three upper rooms, one for you, one for me, and one for them."
Chai Yan nodded and said, "Yes."
As soon as he entered the inn, he was greeted by the innkeeper. He had observed Chai Yan a long time ago and found that he had a handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament. Coupled with the rare big gourd behind him, he immediately felt that this man was definitely not
Ordinary Taoist priest.
The innkeeper bowed his hands and asked in a respectful tone: "I am the innkeeper here. What should I call the Immortal?"
Chai Yan immediately entered the scene, naturally put on his airs, and said slowly: "I am a poor Taoist... a long-lasting son."
The Taoist name Changshengzi was given by Chai Yan. He believed that this name was more in line with the aesthetics of the people of the Sheng Dynasty and was quite impressive. As for the name "Calabash Immortal Chang", it was fine as a nickname. If it was really that
Yelling, that would be too funny.
"It turns out to be the immortal son, the immortal, who I have admired for a long time... Come, come, come, please come to the immortal, please come to the immortal..."
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
Under the warm greeting of the shopkeeper, Chai Yan and Jimo Qiao came and sat down at an empty table in the hall.
At this time, because of the appearance of Chai Yan and Jimo Qiao, everyone in the inn focused their attention on them.
However, this did not have any impact on the two of them. After all, they had been playing Taoist priests for three days and were used to scenes like this.
While the shopkeeper asked the waiter to bring hot tea, he asked politely: "Excuse me, Immortal Master, where are you from and which Taoist temple did you become a monk?"
"Huaidu, Red Sand Temple!" Chai Yan said calmly.
"Oh, it turns out to be Hongsha Temple..." In fact, the shopkeeper didn't know Hongsha Temple at all, but as soon as he heard that it was a Taoist temple in the capital, he didn't dare to be disrespectful.
The shopkeeper asked again: "I would like to ask the immortal, are you going to Jiezhou City?"
"Not bad." Chai Yan did not deny it.
The shopkeeper burst into laughter and asked curiously: "When the immortals go to Jiezhou, are they meeting friends, or are they preaching and promoting the Dharma?"
"Meiyou." Chai Yan was patient and behaved very steadily, but he was saying in his heart, you have so many problems.
Jimo Qiao couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw Chai Yan's playful manner, but she also knew that she couldn't reveal her secrets in front of others, so she turned her eyes away and looked away, suppressing the laughter that came up.
