The Story of a Nongmen Girl Chasing Her Husband

Chapter 30 Going to Yujing City
"Boss, let me have a bowl of noodles!" It was still the same small noodle stall, Jing Si was sitting there, and just said goodbye to his seniors, they all wanted to keep him for a while, and he was very reluctant , but, after thinking about it, I still have to go to the capital for a walk first, and wait until the matter in my heart is over, and come back with ease to reunite with my seniors.

"Oh, it's you, little brother!" The noodle stall owner smiled and raised his face and said,

"Boss, let me ask you something, how should we go from Qingshan City to Xincheng?" Jing Si asked,

"Little brother, you are going to the capital city. The road is quite far away. Starting from Qingshan City, we have to go to Yujing City first, then to Fucheng City, and finally to the capital city. The distance is a long way to say the least. Ten days and half a month." The boss said,
"There is still such a long way to go!" Jing Si sighed,
"It's not bad, little brother. If you want to go to the capital, you have to make preparations first. From our Qingshan City to Yujing City, there is no small town in between. This journey is fast, and you have to catch up For the three-day journey, you have to buy all the rations in our Qingshan City." The noodle stall owner kindly reminded,
"Thank you, Boss, I'll go buy some noodles after I finish eating." Jing Si said,

After the meal, Jingsi bought steamed buns, filled two bags of water, and set off on a [-]-liang ride. Although the journey was long, he had a direction in his heart, so he had to walk step by step.

It’s really like what the noodle stall owner said, Jingsi drove the road for three days, and there was really not a small town on the road, but fortunately, I was well prepared. Even so, I suffered a lot. Looking at the majestic From the gate of the city, there are three large characters on the gate: Yujingcheng, finally arrived!

Jing Si leads the horse, ready to enter the city,

"Stop," the guard at the gate stopped him and said, "Come from other places, whoever enters Yujing City will have to pay the city fee."

"City entry fee?" Jing Si heard it for the first time,
"Two pennies per person, one penny for livestock and goods." The gatekeeper said,

Although Jing Si felt that it was unacceptable to charge this fee, but fortunately, he didn't charge much, so he didn't want to cause trouble, so he paid the money and walked into Yujing City with food.

The scenery in Yujing City makes people feel bright. The streets are neatly arranged on both sides, and even the plaques are unified in color and size, giving people a feeling that they are neat and tidy, very comfortable, not messy at all, and look heavy. The management is very good, no wonder there is a city fee!

Pedestrians on Yujingcheng Road also dress differently. In Luoshui Town, most people wear coarse linen clothes. When they arrive at Qingshan City, most of them wear coarse cloth clothes. In Yujingcheng City, they are all wearing fine cotton cloth. Clothes, no matter what, the Zhao family is willing to spend money on Jing Si, and the two bodies made for Jing Si are made of fine cotton, so Jing Si doesn't seem very awkward here.

Yujing City is not as lively as Qingshan City. In other words, every street in it has been well planned. The street where Jingsi is located is not very lively. There are rows of inns, teahouses, taverns and restaurants, large and small. In my own small shop, the plaques at the entrance are all installed uniformly except for the writing, color and size.

"Welcome to the inn." Jing Si looked at the plaque at the door, and thought the name was good, so she prepared to enter the door.

"Hey, guest officer, are you a top player or staying in a hotel?" Xiao Er came out to greet him cleverly.
"How much is your room? And I need to feed this horse well." Jing Si asked,

"A upper room is one tael of silver, and an ordinary room is half a tael. There is also a Datong shop that is cheaper, only [-] renminbi. You need to pay another [-] renminbi to feed the horses. Guest officer, do you want to live~" Xiao Er asked,

Jing Si turned cold, she didn't expect the rent here to be double that of Qingshan City, it seems that the closer to Jincheng, the higher the consumption, "Is this the price in your Yujing City?" Jing Si asked,

"Our Yujing City is one of the best scenic tourist spots in Binhe Country. Most of the people who come here are literati, so the price is relatively high. But our store is a civilian store, you have to go further. , there is one that requires ten taels of silver to go to the house." Xiaoer said,

"A room costs ten taels. Is it inlaid with gold?" Jing Si was a little incredulous,

"That's not true, but you can see that kind of room after you open it. The mountain full of flowers is a very good place to enjoy the scenery!" Xiao Er said,

Jing Si has gained knowledge, she said: "Then I just want an ordinary room, and you have to feed my horse well. By the way, do you provide hot water? Do you need to pay extra?"

"The tea you drink is free, but if you want to take a bath, you need to pay an extra [-] Wen." Xiao Er said,

"Okay, that's it, do I need to pay first?" Jing Si asked,

"How long do you plan to stay?" Xiao Er asked,

"One night." Jing Si said,

"Okay, the deposit is fifty cash," Xiaoer said,

Jing Si followed Xiaoer to the counter and paid the deposit: "Where is my room?"

"You come with my little one!" Xiao Er graciously brought Jing Si to a room,
Jing Si walked in and took a look, the room was not big, there was a bed, a table, and a screen for changing clothes, that was all, it was simple and did not miss anything.

"Second brother, please help me bring up a bucket of hot water, I want to take a bath first." Jing Si said,

"Okay, wait a moment." Xiao Er said,

After a while, the bathtub was brought in, and Xiao Er also brought tea thoughtfully: "Guest officer, if you have anything, call me Xiao Er."

Jing Si thanked her, and when Xiao Er left, Jing Si took off her clothes and soaked in the bathtub, feeling comfortable: "It's still comfortable to soak in hot water!"

At this time, she heard that there seemed to be a scholar next door to her who was reciting poems, cadenced, Jing Si smiled and shook her head: "I didn't expect that the person living next door was actually a scholar."

The meat ball is jumping around in the room, it feels that everything is fresh,
After taking a shower, Jing Si called Xiao Er, poured out the water, and said, "What local specialties does your shop have?"

"Objectively, if you want to try something new, I strongly recommend you to try our shop's hot and sour fish and acacia buns. Of course, our special flower cakes in Yujingcheng are also a must. Guest officer, I think you are alone. These should be That's enough." Xiaoer said thoughtfully, after all, it's shameful to waste it!

Jing Si nodded and asked, "Then how much are these?"

Xiaoer said: "Pickled cabbage fish costs 35 yuan, acacia bag costs 5 yuan for two, and flower cake costs 10 yuan for two."

Jing thought that the price of grain cakes for one penny or two in Luoshui Town was really incomparable. Since he was away from home, he naturally wanted to try it, so he nodded and said, "Okay, that's all."

"Then guest officer, are you going to eat here or go downstairs?" Xiao Er asked,

"Let's eat in the room, please serve it for me." Jing Si said,

"Okay, wait a moment." Xiao Er said,

At this time, I heard the voice of the scholar next door reading, Jing Si asked casually: "You are quite a scholar?"

"This is natural. After all, the scenery of our preview city is also the best in the country. There are many literati and scholars who come here, especially these days, because the scientific examination is approaching, and candidates who are on the way will stay here for one night. After all, It takes three to five days to travel from Yujingcheng to Fucheng. There are no small towns in the middle where you can settle, and everyone rests here before setting off." Xiao Er said,

"Oh, so that's how it is." Jing Si asked again: "You have always said that the scenery in Yujing City is good, so can you introduce to me, what scenery in the city is worth seeing?"

　Do you all like to travel?When you arrive in a new environment, do you first look for a place to eat or a place to live?Or go to see the scenery first?
