Chapter 89
"Shopkeeper, I want two good guest rooms."

Qiu Wanying walked into the inn with Cheng Yao and Tingyu and proudly took some money on the counter.

There is a catering service on the first floor of the inn. Although it is getting late, it is still very lively.

Many people were hungry at this point and went downstairs for some midnight snacks.

When everyone saw several young women coming to stay alone, they just raised their heads and glanced at them without paying much attention.

The merchants who gather here from north to south have traveled a lot and have seen a lot.

There are also gangs and caravans headed by women in this world, and their abilities and courage are not inferior to those of ordinary men.

When I go out, all I want is those yellow and white things.

As long as both parties can benefit, it doesn't matter whether they are male or female. Therefore, businessmen traveling around do not despise women as ordinary people do.

In addition, Qiu Wanying and Cheng Yao are wearing luxurious clothes and have good temperaments. They are presumably respectable people, and I guarantee that they will meet them in the business world in the future.

Naturally, no one would be stupid and cause trouble for themselves.

Just because there is no action on the surface, it does not mean that there is no secret observation. The new face still arouses the curiosity of some people.

"Okay! Two sky-shaped rooms are arranged for the girls!"

"Can you please bring some food to the room?"

Qiu Wanying ate a lot of snacks on the road. She didn't feel it earlier, but she only noticed bloating in the evening.

"I can't eat anymore. I wouldn't be greedy if I had known it. Now my stomach is so bloated."

"Maybe I need to rest for a while before I can sleep."

"Ayao, do you want to eat something more?"

"I heard from my father that the Yangchun noodles here are pretty good. Would you like to try them?"

Cheng Yao hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said.

"I don't have to. I eat more pastries than you."

"Not to mention that I ate a lot of sour dried apricots along the way to avoid nausea."

"Now all the sweet and sour things are in my stomach, going straight to my throat. I'd better drink some warm water."

The two of them recalled the cakes they stuffed into their mouths while chatting along the way, and both felt a little regretful.

Upon seeing this, the shopkeeper did not continue to promote the restaurant's meals, but said considerately.

"Then I'll arrange for the guys to bring some warm water up later."

"Someone over there, take these girls upstairs!"

As soon as the shopkeeper shouted, a skinny little girl squeezed out from the crowd.

Waving his hands, he jogged over excitedly.

"Uncle Lin! I'm coming! I'll take the sisters upstairs!"

Cheng Yao looked at this child who looked like bean sprouts with some surprise, thinking that he might be a relative of the shopkeeper who was more sensible, so he stayed in the store to help.

The shopkeeper was a little helpless. After observing the expressions of Qiu Wanying and Cheng Yao, he saw that neither of them meant to blame, so he smiled and said to the little girl.

"Okay, you take the guests upstairs."

"Be careful, don't hit the guests."

After receiving the permission, the little girl responded crisply and ran up the stairs.

The wooden stairs make a ding-dong sound when you walk on them.

The little girl walked in front, not forgetting to guide her sideways.

"Sisters, your room is on the left. Remember to be careful on the steps and don't fall."

"My name is Xiaoling. From now on, you can leave any errands you need to me to me."

"Even though I am small and my legs are not long, I can run very fast." "Whether it's the candied haws in the east of the village or the maltose in the west of the village, as long as you need it, I can find it for you no matter how small it is. .”

"The errands are not expensive, just give me a few coppers according to your mood!"

After bringing Cheng Yao and Qiu Wanying to the door of the room, Xiaoling raised her head and showed a sweet smile.

Seeing the two of them lovingly and affectionately, Qiu Wanying opened her purse, looking for some money to give to the other party.

It's a handful of broken silver, which is quite a lot. It's enough for an ordinary person to spend more than half a year.

Seeing this, Cheng Yao stretched out her hand to stop Qiu Wanying from handing over the money, and gently shook her head under the confused look in her eyes.

Then he took off the purse hanging from his waist and picked out two copper plates.

Put it in the palm of your hand, lowered your body slightly, handed the copper plate to Xiaoling opposite, and said softly.

"Xiao Ling, thank you for your guidance. I'll give you these two coins."

"It's getting late now. You should go back and rest early."

"Children's sleep is very important. You must sleep well so that you can grow taller quickly."

Xiaoling gratefully accepted the two coins from Cheng Yao's palm, her eyes still shining with sincerity.

"Thank you, sister. Actually, I don't need to pay you to lead the way. I just want to let you know that you can ask me to run errands."

"I'm usually around this inn. If you need anything, call me anytime. This money is considered as your salary being paid to me in advance."

"Also, does going to bed early really make you grow taller faster?"

After Xiaoling explained, she was still curious about the last words Cheng Yao said.

No one had ever told her that going to bed early would help her grow taller faster.

Cheng Yao patted her shoulder and nodded very firmly.

Xiaoling was even more convinced when she saw Cheng Yao, who was much taller than herself, and said happily.

"Then I'd better go back early. There's no work for me to do now, so why not go to bed early."

"Grow taller quickly so you can do more things."

"Then I'm leaving!"

Xiaoling carefully put the copper plate into her arms and happily waved goodbye to Cheng Yao.

After Xiaoling walked away, Qiu Wanying asked with some confusion.

"The child looks quite pitiful. He is thin and small, and he seems to have never had enough to eat."

"I don't know what the relationship between her and the shopkeeper is. Why can't she even have a full meal?"

"I saw that she was sensible and wanted to give her more money. Why did you stop me?"

"This money is not a big deal to the Qiu family, so there is no need to search for it."

Cheng Yao understood that Qiu Wanying had good intentions, but such good intentions could easily lead to bad things.

"Although the little girl is thin, her clothes are clean and tidy, and she is optimistic. It can be seen that she is a serious person."

"It's a good thing for people to earn some money for themselves by relying on their own abilities."

"You are kind-hearted, and it is a good thing that you want to give her more money."

"It's just that there is a mixed bag of people here, and there are so many people coming and going. I don't know how many pairs of eyes are secretly looking at this place. If you rashly give her such a large sum of money, it is very likely to cause trouble for both of you."

"If you really want to help someone, just follow their methods. If you need to run errands, go to her. When paying, it's not a bad idea to give her a little more."

"Besides, it's better to be more careful when it comes to promoting love and fighting against rice."

After hearing this, Qiu Wanying felt that it made sense, so she stopped worrying about the issue, parted at the door and went into their respective rooms.
