The Peach Blossom Village of the Cat Boss

Chapter 187
Xin Sheng lowered the brim of his hat, and quickly left the station with his suitcase.

She had an appearance of not being approached by strangers, and she refused everyone's approach with the low pressure around her body.

She was in a good mood after witty avoiding the routine of being tricked.

Holding up her mobile phone to check the house number by herself, she planned to find the reserved homestay by herself.

Xinsheng knew that no matter what he did in tourist attractions, he had to spend money!And it costs a lot of money, which is a heartache.

In some places, even some children and old people take the initiative to take photos with tourists.

After the tourists who mistakenly thought that they were warmly received took a group photo, they would open their mouths and ask the tourists for the photo fee!
And most of the places where this kind of thing happens are the kind of remote areas far away from the city!
Xinsheng felt that a backward place like the countryside was just a petri dish for greed and ignorance.

It is impossible for this kind of place to be as beautiful as the photo taken by the cat boss!

It is a little troublesome to find the way by house number in an unfamiliar place by yourself, but it is just a matter of spending more time.

About 10 minutes later, Xinsheng finally found his destination with her suitcase.

Looking at the scenery in front of her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The house in front of her is a bungalow with a small yard.

A big pagoda tree was planted in the yard, there was a swing under the tree, and a few small benches were placed.

Fairly chic.

It is not much different from the pictures on the Internet.

But to her surprise, she actually saw a familiar face here.

The person behind her was the aunt who sat next to her on the bus just now.

Unmistakable, it was her.

She was wearing a flowered gown with a gardenia on her head.

On the feet are a pair of poor-quality crystal slippers.

The aunt was also surprised to see her, and wanted to get closer to her with a happy and excited look.

Xin Sheng frowned vigilantly, and lowered the brim of his hat again:

"What do you mean, why follow me?"

"Just now in the car, you moved too much and hit me several times... But I didn't do anything."

Her voice trembled a little:

"If you want to find fault, I won't be afraid of you."

The aunt froze for a moment, showing a hesitant and embarrassed expression.

She stopped approaching Xinsheng, neither advancing nor retreating.

"Little girl, you misunderstood, I actually live here."

"This is my house."

The suspicion on Xin Sheng's face didn't fade away:

"If you lived here, why did you arrive later than me, and why did you come back from behind me?"

"Also, when I called to book a room, a man answered the phone."

The aunt fumbled in her trouser pocket for a long time, and finally found a bunch of keys.

She hastily took the key and opened the door, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and then explained to Xinsheng:

"I met an acquaintance on the way back just now, so I went to sit at her house for a while and chatted a few words."

"You should be Xiaojin, the little girl who called to book the house? I was not at home a few days ago and went to play with my son and daughter-in-law in the city. It was my brother who answered your call."

After listening to the explanation, Xin Sheng finally relaxed his vigilance.

Although the other party called her by the wrong surname, she still nodded and silently followed the aunt into the house.

While walking in, her eyes looked around.

The house of this family is very special. There are two gates connected by a large courtyard. One of the gates is lived by the aunt herself, and the other one has been renovated into a homestay.

Although the two portals are close to each other, they can avoid disturbing each other.

Tenants don’t have to worry about sharing the space with the landlord at all.

This made Xinsheng heave a sigh of relief, and his face softened a lot.

She doesn't like to have too much involvement with strangers, which can easily lead to conflicts.

Especially with this kind of rural aunt, don't worry too much.

Of course, there is only one yard, and as a tenant, she can't let other landlords not come to the yard.

It seems that you can only avoid it yourself.

Xin Sheng raised his head and looked at the tall pagoda tree in the yard.

It is really big, and the canopy is like an umbrella, which is greatly opened, casting a lot of shade in the yard.

Now it is July, which is the time when the Sophora japonica just blooms.

Bunches of pure white Sophora japonica flowers hung all over the branches like bells. They shook gently with the wind. Although they didn't make a clear and crisp sound like bells, the rustling sound that seemed to be absent was also very pleasant.

Moreover, gusts of wind in the yard blew the sweet scent of Sophora japonica flowers to the tip of Xin Sheng's nose.

Let her restless mood calm down for a long time.

Xinsheng remembered that when she was a child, there was such a big pagoda tree in front of her house.

At that time, the great grandmother who loved her was still alive, and the great grandmother would always hold her in the hot afternoon under the locust tree to enjoy the cool and coax her to sleep.

"My poor grandson."

Grandma would always sigh like this at that time.

She still remembers that Grandma would pat her body with a broken fan to drive away mosquitoes.

Sometimes she would hum songs that she didn't understand, humming for a long, long time.

Pity.

Xin Sheng looked away silently.

She never thought that she would suddenly remember the fragmented picture buried deep in her memory.

Long after she decided to cut ties with that place completely, she had forgotten all about it.

All that is left is hatred and joy.

But such hatred did not make her life any better.

On the contrary, she often fell into inexplicable pain, her heart seemed to be burning, and she could never calm down.

Her subconscious mind seemed to be yelling at her all the time, this matter is not over yet, don't even think about it!
The pain will be forever!
But at this moment, her heart suddenly became calmer.

Following in the footsteps of his aunt, Xinsheng walked into his rented house.

Not very high-end, but still neat and clean.

Much better than she expected.

"Tell me, how much do you want to add?"

"I want to live in this house."

Xinsheng knows that in many tourist attractions, the prices of homestays listed on the Internet are very cheap.

But after arriving at the scene, the landlord will use various reasons to temporarily increase the price.

Anyway, the renter has already arrived, so I can't run away.

Auntie's fully furnished big house, with a courtyard, costs only 80 yuan a night online.

Obviously just an attractive gimmick.

The B&Bs here have no formal software and are not under control.

All kinds of details made Xinsheng keenly aware that the landlord wanted to increase the price on the spot.

But because of the moment of tranquility that he felt in the yard just now, Xinsheng now felt very tired, and she didn't want to fight anymore.

For this big locust tree, it doesn't hurt to be tricked once.

Thinking of this, she showed the expression of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water.

However, when she spoke, the aunt was taken aback:
"Oh, little girl, you can't talk nonsense."

"Didn't you agree? 80 yuan. I won't accept a dime more! You don't know how strict our village committee is!"

"If anyone destroys the image of our Lanhu people for a little money, they will be looked down upon."

"Besides, what can I do if I charge you a few extra dollars? My son and daughter-in-law earn a lot in the city, and I don't have to worry about food and clothing."
