Main Text Chapter 528 People Under the Eaves
(If the monthly ticket reaches 100, there will be an extra chapter for 600 tickets!)
Wait and see? Miao Yi was very depressed. He knew that he was outnumbered. As soon as he arrived at the yard, he immediately wrote a letter to Shuixing Palace, saying that he had completed the task and asked to go back again.
After releasing the eagle, he walked to the gate of the yard and was about to step out of the threshold, but he retracted his foot. Where should he go now? Someone outside might want to kill him at any time!
I thought that since I completed the task, they would let me go, so there was no need to ask Shuixing Palace for permission. I could just go back directly. Now they said that the task was not over yet. There was no way to go back without the consent of Shuixing Palace. I could only find a place to wait for Shuixing Palace's reply.
Go to Fengyun Inn? Miao Yi felt a toothache when he thought about it. If he didn't go to Fengyun Inn, his life might be in danger.
Finally, he thought about it and decided to go to Fengyun Inn. It was the safest place in the entire Liuyun Sand Sea, and it was not like he didn't spend money.
The blue-feathered swallow was released and driven away directly. After a while, it landed directly in the earthen wall courtyard of Fengyun Inn, not far from the two sides.
He jumped off the mount, collected the blue-feathered swallow, and just walked to the door of the inn, a familiar body fragrance greeted him.
As luck would have it, it was the time when the proprietress came out for inspection, and they ran into each other on the spot. One of them was inside the threshold, and the other was outside the threshold, staring at each other.
Miao Yi was in a very awkward situation at this time. First, he had a "fierce battle" with a pair of twins, and then he went into the sea for a long time. He had an indescribable smell on his body, his clothes were messy, and his hair was messy.
Miao Yi tried to force a smile and said, "Madam, good morning!"
The proprietress raised her eyebrows, remembering the situation when this guy left the store arrogantly a year ago. At that time, she had no temper with this guy. Now it's finally delivered to the door. He raised his hand to cover his nose and frowned, saying, "Where does the salted fish smell come from? Do we know each other?"
Miao Yi knew that he was going to get his comeuppance, and laughed dryly, "The boss lady is really forgetful. I drank with you before, Niu Er! Do you remember?"
"Oh! Niu Er! You're not dead yet?" The boss lady covered her nose and looked really stinky, and asked, "Where did you come from? Why is it so stinky? Don't suffocate my customers. Don't block the door of my shop if you have nothing to do, get out."
The scholar lying on the counter was already looking at this side and laughing.
Miao Yi pretended not to hear it, and quickly stepped aside to make way, "You are busy, I will stay in the hotel, and deliver the business to the door."
"Stay in the hotel?" The boss lady looked him up and down. She put down her hands, crossed her arms over her chest, twisted her waist, turned back and blinked her eyes and asked: "Boss, are there any rooms?"
The scholar immediately raised his head over the counter and replied: "Boss lady, there are no rooms, we are full."
The boss lady immediately turned back and smiled: "Niu Er. I'm sorry, we are full, please find another place to rest." After that, she raised her proud chin and ignored someone and walked away.
Damn it! It's obvious that you are making fun of me. There are better places to go. Why do I need to come here to suffer from you? Miao Yi's expression twitched, and he quickly took a few steps ahead to stop her, and bowed his hands and said: "Boss lady, you are a big man and don't care about the villain's mistakes. I know there are still rooms, so don't be angry with me."
The boss lady was surprised and said: "Who are you? Why should I bother with you? The shopkeeper said there are no rooms. If you don't believe me, go and ask yourself."
Miao Yi was speechless. If you don't nod, I will ask again. That gloating bastard will definitely say no.
Immediately, he bowed again and said, "Boss, for Yun Feiyang's sake, please don't bother with me."
"What does it have to do with him? I was kicked out of the Yun family, you know that." The boss lady walked away with a disdainful voice.
Miao Yi stepped forward to stop her again, "Boss, I was wrong before. Can you help me think of a way to get a room?"
Say this, it's so aggrieved, I was beaten twice here, and I have to admit that I was wrong. Now I understand why many people would come to this woman to be slaughtered.
The lady boss squinted and teased, "Are you begging me?"
Miao Yi nodded repeatedly and said, "Please, lady boss, please be kind."
"Is that so..." The lady boss thought for a moment, turned around and shouted, "Boss, come here."
"Hey!" The scholar ran out happily and asked, "Madam boss, what do you want?"
The lady boss pouted at Miao Yi and said, "After all, he is a familiar customer. If you can help him, you can squeeze out a room."
The scholar spread his hands and said, "I really can't squeeze out."
The lady boss also looked embarrassed. Under Miao Yi's eager eyes, it seemed that she had made a major decision As if determined, "If I clean up the utility room downstairs a little, I can squeeze out a place, but I'm afraid I'll neglect the guests..." Turning back to Miao Yi, he said, "It's too unreasonable to let you live in the utility room. Why don't you go out and wait for two days, and I'll keep it for you when there's an empty room."
"No! I'm not that particular. It's nice to live in a utility room." Miao Yi forced a smile and said happily, "The utility room."
Who knew that the scholar was embarrassed again: "Boss lady, how is the room fee for this utility room?"
"That's right!" The boss lady hugged her arms on her attractive and plump chest, looked up at the sky, and seemed to be thinking.
Miao Yi was so angry that his teeth itched. These two birds, a man and a woman, were obviously singing the same tune and deliberately making fun of me. Let you be proud first, and then I'll burn down this broken inn when I have the chance.
It's not worth losing your life for this little grievance. Miao Yi naturally said generously and generously, "No need to be so troublesome, just charge the normal room price!"
I added in my heart, your other rooms are simple enough, just a few boards in an empty room, what's the difference between them and the utility room, my Shuiyun Mansion is a paradise on earth, any room is better than the best room here.
"Ah!" The proprietress sighed helplessly and said to the scholar: "Since they have said this, considering their sincerity, let's clean up the utility room first and try living in it. If it is really not suitable... we will talk about it later."
This clearly means that if you are obedient, you can live there, and if you are not obedient, you will be driven out on the pretext that it is not suitable for people to live in the utility room.
"Okay!" The scholar nodded happily and left.
Miao Yi wanted to sell this woman to a brothel, but on the surface he had to bow and say: "Thank you, boss lady, thank you, boss lady!"
"No thanks, it's my duty to take care of repeat customers. I'm going to be busy. If it's not suitable, tell the shopkeeper. It's embarrassing to let guests stay in the utility room!" The boss lady threw down a sentence, deliberately flirted and left, and when she turned her back, her silver teeth bit her red lips hard to hold back a smile. It was comfortable to breathe out.
"Boss lady, take care!" Miao Yi had to flatter her before entering the inn. There was no way, if she was unhappy, she would have an excuse to drive you out at any time.
"How many days will you stay?" The scholar behind the counter asked with a smile.
"Stay for ten days first." Miao Yi smiled stiffly and took out 100,000 gold crystals and put them on the counter.
After counting, the scholar put them away and nodded, saying: "Stay here first, and when there is an empty room, I will change it for you."
"Sorry for the trouble." Miao Yi laughed politely.
"You sit here for a while." The scholar turned around and called to a waiter, "Clean up the utility room upstairs and put up a bed."
The utility room was cleaned up, and the proprietress came back from a tour outside, "It's just on the way, Niu Er, let's go up and take a look."
Miao Yi had nothing to say except yes. However, what annoyed him was that this woman made him look like he crawled out of a cesspool and covered his nose when he went upstairs.
The utility room was quite large, enough to be three ordinary guest rooms. The reason why it was made into a utility room may also be related to the fact that the proprietress lived upstairs.
The messy things have been cleared aside. The bed has also been set up. It can be seen that it has always been quite clean, probably because the proprietress herself has always loved cleanliness. The remaining space is also much larger than that of ordinary guest rooms. Miao Yi is quite satisfied. The most unsatisfactory thing is that the proprietress lives above his head.
"What's that smell on you? It stinks!" The lady boss told the waiter who was accompanying her before leaving: "Get him some water to wash, don't let me upstairs stink."
Miao Yi forced a smile and said: "Wash, I'll wash right away."
It was indeed time to wash, the big bathtub was dragged out and filled with clean water. After undressing, Miao Yi soaked in it comfortably, slowly closed his eyes, and his face was full of comfort.
Wandering in the desert for more than a year, he has always been vigilant, and today he finally relaxed.
When he was almost done washing. Suddenly, there was a muffled "bang" sound upstairs, and a piece of sand fell down.
The roof was made of pieced-together logs, and then a layer of clay was laid on it. The sand fell from the gaps in the wood above. I don't know how heavy the object was that fell to the ground, and so much sand fell down.
Miao Yi quickly cast a spell to force away the falling dust, quickly put on his clothes and ran to the corridor outside. It can be said that he fled in a hurry, and he had just washed himself!
Looking back, I saw smoke and dust in the house. The head of the house Miao Yi slowly raised his head to look at the roof. He could guess with his butt that it was the bitch upstairs who was deliberately pitting him.
People have to bow their heads under the eaves. Who told him to ask for help! He walked to the door and spread out his five fingers, cast a spell to open the window, and swung his two big sleeves, rolling up the sand and dust in the house and clearing it out of the window.
After finally cleaning it up, Miao Yi, who closed the doors and windows, sighed and lay on the wooden bed. He was thinking about how to go back to Shuiyun Mansion, but there was a sudden "bang" above, and another piece of sand and dust fell down.
Miao Yi jumped up reflexively, quickly left the room, looked at the dusty house, and then looked up at the roof, cursing someone's ancestors in his heart.
The proprietress in the upstairs house had already covered her mouth and fell on the bed. She was laughing so hard that she was shaking and twitching.
"Do you really think I'm made of mud? If you're unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" Miao Yi snorted and sneered, and walked to the other end of the corridor for a while, sat cross-legged, and didn't return to the room for a day and a night.
The next morning, the proprietress came down with a charming manner. Seeing Miao Yi sitting outside in the corridor, she couldn't help but exclaimed from afar, "Niu Er, what are you doing sitting there?"
Miao Yi immediately came over to greet good morning, followed her downstairs, and asked curiously, "Madam, why is there always sand falling down from the upper floor of my house?"
The proprietress sighed, "It's an old problem. It may have been in disrepair for a long time, so it was made into a utility room. If you are not used to living here, I think you should just forget it, or you..."
Miao Yi showed a sly smile at the corner of his mouth, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's a small matter, you can get used to it."
