The farm life of the group pet Xiaoqi

Chapter 197 197. Staying in an Inn (Monthly Pass)
Lu Zhongshou looked at the shopkeeper with an inexplicable expression.

As expected of the shopkeeper of a big restaurant, he was cautious in his work and did not leak water, but what he said just now can be regarded as a reminder to them.

"Tentative one day, Zhuzi No. [-] room, deposit ten taels of silver." After the shopkeeper recorded these, he looked up again at the father and daughter in front of him.

"I don't know if there is anything else needed in the guest room? We have some new fruits here. I don't know if you want to try them after returning to the room? They are all chilled in the well water, which is very refreshing." The shopkeeper glanced at the guest. said the child next to him.

Hearing this, Lu Zhongshou became a little interested.

I can't go away anyway, it's time to buy some novelty things for the child.

There are not many opportunities to eat fruit at home on weekdays. If it is a relatively novel fruit, he is still happy to buy some for his daughter, and even wants to take some back home for his parents and children to taste.

"I don't know what kind of fruit they are." Lu Zhongshou asked with interest.

"We have summer melons, peaches, apples, pineapples, and mangoes from the south. These kinds of fruits are very delicious and juicy. Would you like to have some?"

Lu Zhongshou wasn't very interested in summer melons and peaches. Thanks to Wen's family, he had just eaten these things before.

Lu Zhongshou is somewhat interested in the fruit called mango, which he has never heard of before, let alone eaten.

Lu Zhongshou looked down at his daughter, "Xiao Qi, what fruit do you want to eat?"

Xiao Qi did have a fruit she wanted to eat. She never thought that this dynasty even had mangoes. Thinking of the taste, Xiao Qi felt that she was about to turn into the same as her eldest niece, and she was so greedy.

"Father! I want to eat mango, but I have never eaten this kind of fruit before."

"Okay, dad bought some mangoes for Xiao Qi." Lu Zhongshou looked at his daughter lovingly.

The shopkeeper at the counter watched the interaction between the father and daughter with a smile on his face. The man in front of him was indeed a loving child, and the child agreed immediately when he said he wanted to eat.

Knowing that his daughter wanted to eat it, Lu Zhongshou looked at the shopkeeper and said with a smile, "I wonder if the shopkeeper can tell you the price of this mango."

"One catty of mangoes is one hundred renminbi. How much does the guest officer want? To be honest, there are not many mangoes in our shop."

One hundred cash is indeed a sky-high price. Sure enough, the price of this kind of rare fruit is also very rare. These things are not something ordinary people can eat.

Although Lu Zhongshou felt very distressed when he heard the price, he still gritted his teeth and said, "The shopkeeper will give you six catties of mangoes, a pot of tea, and some more special snacks."

"Okay, I'll deliver it to the guest room in a while." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Then, at the gesture of the shopkeeper, a younger brother wearing a turban came over in a hurry.

"Room No. [-], Zhuzi, it's nice to serve the guests." With that said, the shopkeeper handed the key to the guy.

The second brother took the key respectfully, and with a smile on his face, he asked Lu Zhongshou and his daughter to follow him.

Soon, the two followed the second brother to the third room on the right on the second floor.

Opening the log grid door, the father and daughter followed the second brother into the guest room, and the second brother quickly lit the oil lamps in the inner and outer rooms with the torch he carried with him.

Under the illumination of the two oil lamps, the room gradually lit up, and the furnishings in the room were also reflected in the eyes of the father and daughter.

The guest room is divided into inner and outer rooms. The purpose of entry is a light red Eight Immortals table against the wall, and a few round stools. The table is covered with elegant tablecloths.

Walking in, there is a solid wood carved couch for people to rest, which is enough for three people to sit on, and the top is covered with soft cushions.

There are other ornamental and decorative objects in other parts of the room.

The inner room and the outer room are blocked by a layer of gray curtain gauze, and the curtain ripples layer after layer as the door is opened.

The decoration of the inner room is simpler. There is a screen made of gentleman bamboo near the window lattice. There is also a set of wardrobes for guests to store clothes on the side.

Xiao Qi carefully observed the whole room while watching the house with the second brother, and found nothing wrong.

Ever since entering the room, I have always felt a little uneasy in my heart, which is why Xiaoqi will observe this room carefully.

After turning around again, I really didn't find anything?
Xiao Qi was relieved for the time being. Generally speaking, the room was good. What satisfied her most was that the room was cleaned very neatly and there was no other strange smell.

The second brother took the father and daughter to visit, and then smiled and said: "I wonder if the guest officer is satisfied?"

Lu Zhongshou looked at it and was satisfied. The most important thing was that it was clean. He nodded to the second brother.

When the second brother was about to leave, Lu Zhongshou said: "I will trouble the second brother later to bring some bath water." According to the usual practice, he gave the second brother two copper coins.

"Guest officer, please wait a moment, the little one is going to get water." The second brother who received the copper plate said hurriedly.

Although there are not many copper coins, it is his extra charge, and he can save a lot in one month. If they rely on their monthly silver alone, it is still a bit reluctant to support their family in a place like Fucheng.

Xiao Qi sat on the stool beside the table of the Eight Immortals, watching the conversation between his father and the second brother with a smile on his face.

The way Dad stuffed the money is so handsome, even though it is not much, it can still show enough kindness to others, Xiao Qi doesn't think tipping is a bad thing.

It wasn't until the second brother closed the door and left that Lu Zhongshou turned around and sat down at the Eight Immortals table.

After a day of exhaustion, he was always tense and tense, but when he calmed down, he really felt a little uncomfortable. Lu Zhongshou couldn't help pinching the space between his eyebrows.

He was really tired this time, and the six or seven hour drive was exhausting. Although he also rested in the carriage for a while on the way, he still couldn't recover from his fatigue.

Looking at his daughter with wide-open eyes, Lu Zhongshou smiled enviously, he was still full of energy as a child.

Xiao Qi saw Lu Zhongshou's movement of pinching the center of his eyebrows, and felt distressed in his heart.

Standing up, walked behind Lu Zhongshou, put the middle fingers of both hands on Dad's temples, and began to massage gently.

While massaging, she said: "Father, if you are tired, go to bed and rest first."

Lu Zhongshou enjoyed his daughter's thoughtfulness, and his tense face eased a little.

Patted her daughter's hand, closed her eyes and said in a comfortable voice: "It's okay, Dad will be fine in a while."

Xiaoqi didn't say anything after hearing that, and concentrated on helping Dad massage.

Not long after, the second brother's voice came from outside, "Guest officer, the little one has come in."

Hearing that Xiao Qi stopped what she was doing, and sat back at the table of the Eight Immortals.

Lu Zhongshou opened his eyes and said calmly, "Come in."

I saw two younger brothers walking in carrying a large bucket of steaming water, holding clean face towels and hand towels in their hands.

Then the two younger brothers poured the water into the tub, several times before giving up.

While the two younger brothers were delivering water, Lu Zhongshou also brought up the tea, mangoes and pastries that Lu Zhongshou wanted, and put them on the table of the Eight Immortals.

After everything was ready, the little brothers withdrew.

Xiao Qi looked at the mango on the table with a smile on her face, and it really was the mango she had eaten before.

The mango, which is about the size of her palm, exudes a unique strong fruity fragrance, and the color is golden and lovely.

Xiao Qi couldn't wait to pick up one and nibbled from the top with her small mouth.

Lu Zhongshou saw his daughter's movement, and quickly grabbed the mango that was being bitten by his daughter with his big hand.

Xiao Qi was stunned by this action of her father, she looked at her accusingly with big almond-shaped eyes, she didn't understand why he took away the mango she was biting.

Lu Zhongshou was watched and coughed lightly, "Daughter, it's not that Dad won't let you eat it. Dad took the peel because he watched you eat it. Dad thinks the skin is inedible, just like a fruit I've seen before. It is like planting bananas (bananas), which are eaten peeled."

Since the younger brother quit, Lu Zhongshou has also set his sights on the mango, which has an irregular shape.

The root is elliptical and thick, and the shape becomes smaller and smaller as it goes up, until the top is slightly inclined and hooked.

It is indeed a fruit that he has never seen before, with a very strong fragrance, and it is indeed expensive and valuable.
