Chapter 71: Observing words and colors, observing customs and asking customs
Ling Shiqing is a woman with outstanding appearance. Coupled with Ling Shiqing's unique clothes, such a fairy-like woman appeared on the streets of Bingshu City and instantly attracted a lot of attention.
However, when the group of people secretly looked at Ling Shiqing, they would inevitably glance at Li Longqian next to them, but maybe it was because the clothes on Li Longqian were too shabby, and they were simply different from Ling Shiqing.
, so most people think that Ling Shiqing is a young lady who comes out to play, and the person next to her is probably a servant in the mansion.
"Can you change your clothes later? It looks too eye-catching." Li Longqian walked beside Ling Shiqing and said speechlessly while looking at the pedestrians on both sides of the street.
Ling Shiqing smiled, then turned around in a circle charmingly, then looked at Li Longqian and asked: "What's wrong with my clothes? Doesn't it look good?"
"Unruly women!" Li Longqian gritted his teeth and cursed, then turned his head and stopped looking at Ling Shiqing.
Ling Shiqing was extremely happy when she saw Li Longqian like this. After all, Li Longqian was usually a cheeky person and it was hard to see him being shy, so Ling Shiqing couldn't help but the girl's playful temperament.
He actually walked slowly in front of Li Longqian, then curved his eyes into a crescent moon, looked at Li Longqian with a smile and said: "Oh, so you are shy too?"
"Do you believe that I will strip you naked and throw you on the street?" Li Longqian couldn't bear it and asked in a vicious low voice.
"How dare you!" Ling Shiqing glared at Li Longqian.
"If you don't believe it, you can try it." At this time, Li Longqian returned to his usual relaxed and casual look.
"Humph!" Ling Shiqing was silent for a moment, and then snorted coldly. She stopped talking to Li Longqian and focused her attention on the street, which was still lively even though it was almost evening.
After entering the city, Ling Shiqing and Li Longqian both got off the carriage. Naturally, Lu Zhengyang had no reason to sit on the horse, so he also got off the horse. When Lu Zhengyang came down, the guards also held their hands.
War horses were walking on the street. With such a large group of people and Ling Shiqing at the front, people on both sides of the street began to speculate that it was the daughter of the rich family who was able to put up such a big battle.
Lu Zhengyang carried his seventy-kilogram wave hammer and strode quickly to catch up with Ling Shiqing and Li Longqian. He first saluted and then whispered: "Miss, Mr. Li, we are resting at the inn.
Just ahead, the city lord has made arrangements."
"How far is it?" Li Longqian looked at Lu Zhengyang and asked. After all, he had been hungry all the way. At this time, Li Longqian wished he could go to the inn and have a big meal right away.
"This street used to be..." Lu Zhengyang replied sternly.
"Hurry up, I'm going to starve to death." After finishing speaking, Li Longqian subconsciously quickened his pace.
"Oh, I've had enough shopping, I finally came out once." Ling Shiqing curled her small mouth and shouted to Li Longqian in front of her.
"When did you change your clothes? I'm walking around with you, and Chief Lu, you should quickly put away the hammer in your hand. Look at what people think of you two." Li Longqian has long been affected by this.
Enough with the strange looks from the outsider between these two people, I wish I could go to the inn right away.
"I won't change." Ling Shiqing rolled her eyes at Li Longqian, while Lu Zhengyang looked down at the hammer in his hand, smiled helplessly, and then stepped forward to give Li Longqian and Ling Shi
The two lovers lead the way.
…
"Master Li, Miss Ling, we are here!" Lu Zhengyang stood in front of an inn and said to the two of them with a smile.
Li Longqian raised his head and looked at this inn. Although it was much grander and grander than the inn where he worked as a waiter in the small town, for some reason, it was not as comfortable as the Fuyuan Inn. Maybe it was because he looked at it.
I'm used to it, so I can't stand it any more.
"Qiyuan Inn." Ling Shiqing stood in front of the inn and looked up at the four gold characters on the inn's plaque, and recited softly.
"The blessings of heaven and earth are bound to make friends from all over the world. The person who named this inn has some background." Li Longqian replied softly, and then directly handed the reins of the carriage to the waiter who came out of the inn. After all, he was so famous
Having been a waiter for many years, Li Longqian still understands the rules of leading and feeding horses for guests.
Lu Zhengyang and the guards settled down their horses and followed Li Longqian, Ling Shiqing and the others into the inn. The appearance of this group of people instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the inn. One of them was
The beautiful woman who is dazzling the whole country and the other is a big man with a wave hammer in his hand. These two people are enough to make people look at them for a while, plus the group of impressive-looking guards behind them,
That makes it even more attractive. Only Li Longqian stood in the middle of Lu Zhengyang's poetry, looking a little embarrassed.
When the innkeeper saw so many people coming in, he hurriedly ran out of the counter. Although only Li Longqian looked the least conspicuous among the three people in front of him, there were many big shots and ordinary people who had been innkeepers for so many years.
, he still has the ability to recognize the owner of people, so he looked directly at Li Longqian and asked: "Sir, are we staying in a hotel?"
"After we talk about staying in the hotel, let's bring out the good wine and meat from your inn first, and then we can talk about staying in the hotel after eating." Li Longqian found a stool and sat down casually, and shouted to the shopkeeper carelessly.
Ling Shiqing glanced at Li Longqian and knew that she must be hungry after a busy day, so she didn't stop her and sat quietly next to Li Longqian.
"Master Li, you can drink, but we can't. After all, drinking will delay things." Lu Zhengyang heard this and quickly reminded him in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter, why don't you just drink some wine? What can I do to delay anything? Let the brothers sit down, eat as much meat as you want, and drink as much wine as you can." Li Long replied with a slight smile.
"But..." Lu Zhengyang looked a little embarrassed.
"Leader Lu, do as he says." At this moment, Ling Shiqing took the initiative to say a word for Li Longqian. In fact, she was not saying it for Li Longqian, but for the guards who had worked hard all day.
of.
"Yes, Miss." Lu Zhengyang saw that Ling Shiqing had already spoken, so it was hard for him to continue.
"Then I will serve wine and food to the guests now?" the shopkeeper asked Li Longqian with a smile.
"Go ahead, go ahead and get more beef." Li Longqian waved his hand at the shopkeeper.
"Okay."
The shopkeeper agreed with a smile, then bent down and retreated. After the shopkeeper left, Lu Zhengyang also quickly called the guards to find a place to sit down. The guards were obviously in a better mood after knowing that they could drink today.
Quite a few, and the voices they spoke were also louder. The originally deserted inn instantly became lively due to the arrival of this group of people. Originally, Lu Zhengyang wanted to ask these guards to speak lower down so as not to disturb Ling Shi.
Qing Shiqing and Li Longqian were resting, but when they turned around and saw that the two of them were laughing and chatting, Lu Zhengyang did not say this. After all, Ling Shiqing and Li Longqian both had easy-going personalities.
"You turned out to be the waiter in the shop?" Ling Shiqing looked at Li Longqian and asked.
"Yes." Li Longqian nodded perfunctorily while fiddling with the chopsticks in his hand.
"Is this an inn?" Ling Shiqing asked curiously, her big watery eyes glaring.
"A little smaller than this." Li Longqian turned to look at the inn, whispered back, and then continued: "We don't have such a big inn over there, even if it's a small inn, it's just that one."
"It's really a small place." Ling Shiqing curled her lips.
"It can't be compared with this Bingshu City, and it can't even be compared with your Le'an City, but small places also have their advantages."
"What's the benefit?"
"Humanity is more important than yours."
"Why did you say that?" Ling Shiqing asked with some dissatisfaction.
"You can tell by looking at the waiters and shopkeepers in this store." Li Longqian lowered his voice subconsciously, after all, it was better not to let others hear him.
Ling Shiqing was stunned for a moment after hearing Li Longqian's words. Then she turned to look at the waiter in the store and then at the shopkeeper at the counter. She didn't seem to find anything wrong, so she still looked at Li Longqian in confusion.
Long Qian asked: "I don't understand what you mean."
"After we came in, the waiters in the store looked very disappointed." Li Longqian replied in a low voice, and then continued: "They are disappointed because we delayed their time to go back to rest, so they were very reluctant.
Stayed here."
When Ling Shiqing heard this, she quickly turned around and looked at the waiter. The waiter seemed to have a hint of displeasure in his eyes at this time. Although he couldn't say that he hated them, he certainly wasn't happy either.
performance.
"Look at the shopkeeper. From the time we came in until now, he came out of the counter once. Most of the rest of the time, he was at the counter without talking to other customers at all."
Ling Shiqing turned around again. Apart from them, there were indeed some other guests in the inn. However, most of these guests just lowered their heads to eat and had no intention of talking at all.
"But what if the shopkeeper doesn't know these people?" Ling Shiqing looked at Li Longqian and asked.
"Do you think they dress like outsiders?" Li Longqian asked.
Ling Shiqing observed secretly and found that it was exactly as Li Longqian said, that group of people did not look like outsiders.
"Even if you are a foreigner, in my old inn, the landlady will take the initiative to talk. It has nothing to do with whether you are a local or not. This inn is just not as humane as my old inn, whether it is the shopkeeper or the waiter, they are just
Treat us as tools to make money, not friends." Li Longqian explained.
"I didn't expect you were observing very carefully." Ling Shiqing nodded her head as if she understood.
"For a waiter who has been there for so many years, he should have the ability to observe people's words, look at people's moods, observe people's appearance, and identify people."
