Chapter 62
"It's been three days, and you haven't reconciled with Shopkeeper Tong yet?"

Li Xin understood what was going on.

Because Tong Xiangyu is hostile to Jin Xiangyu, who has never met before, she has a very bad temper these two days.

Especially the dialogue with Bai Zhantang, Li Dazui, and Yan Xiaoliu.

The first two are because they both went to Yunlai Inn, and the last Xiaoliu is because he said something wrong.

Among the three, Bai Zhantang faced the most and fiercest firepower.

Most of Tong Xiangyu's anger was directed at him.

It is worth mentioning that although Li Xin was also one of the parties involved, she was greeted by her with a smile.

The reason is that Li Xin won the gold inlaid jade by drinking, which suppressed his prestige.

"Brother, you don't know how I survived these three days! Once Xiangyu's petty temper came up, nine cows couldn't move it! I told you that day, I was with that big mouth to save you. Jin Xiangyu acted on every occasion and explained it several times, but she just refused to believe it!"

When Bai Zhantang heard Li Xin's words, his face was full of bitterness.

He wasn't afraid of embarrassment, so he directly told Lei Li and the stranger Chai Jiu about his family affairs.

"Then you have endured it for three days, and shopkeeper Tong didn't drive you out. Why did you drive him out today?"

Li Xin pouted at the bedding.

"What, not long after dinner today, the Goddess Tiefeihua came to investigate. I just took a normal look at him, and Xiangyu knocked over the vinegar jar and threw my bedding on the ground. Look, it was all dirty. Already!"

Bai Zhantang flipped over some parts of the quilt and showed them, and they were all stained with gray and black.

"This……"

Li Xin wanted to ask if this was a bit too much, but he still chose not to speak.

How can outsiders judge and talk about things between men and women?

So I had no choice but to change the subject: "Brother Bai, you mean that Goddess Catcher has come to town?"

Bai Zhantang said: "Yeah, I just came back this afternoon and started investigating the case immediately. I was going to come to your side as well, but it's a pity that you're not here, so she gave up."

Li Xin nodded after listening, feeling relaxed.

Now that the Goddess has given up on arresting her, it means that she came to investigate him, and it was really just a matter of chance.

In his heart, he also hoped that the Jia family's case would be solved quickly, so as not to be disturbed by door-to-door visits from time to time.

Among those involved in the all-cause case is Yang Huilan.

And she lived in the Tongfu Inn before, and Li Xin also lived there at the time.

Otherwise, he would definitely not even come to check him by the way.

"In that case, Brother Bai, you will stay with me tonight."

"In my house, only the main room has a bed, and the other places are still vacant. You can go to bed with Lei Li."

Li Xin pointed upwards.

It happened that there were two beds on the second floor, and besides Lei Li's, an extra room was prepared in advance.

Because he originally planned to hire two guys.

As he spoke, he turned to Chai Jiu and said, "There are not enough beds, you should go back to your original place tonight. It just so happens that you have to deal with the problems of your last job first, and then come to my place after everything is settled."

"I see, master!"

Chai Jiu was actually working at the rice shop, and had never signed any contract at all.

Who told him to work without wages?

So he is in a state where he can leave at any time.

But in the face of Li Xin, he didn't say anything, so he went back and dealt with it as if it was true.

After speaking, he left the restaurant.

Li Xin didn't talk much with Bai Zhantang, and went back to the house to sleep.

……

Early the next morning, Li Xin went out early as usual, and when he passed through the lobby of the restaurant, he saw that Lei Li was already sweeping the floor.

Bai Zhantang might still be sleeping.

Thinking so, he pushed the door open, but just in time to see Bai Zhantang walking out quickly from the opposite door, holding the quilt.

what's the situation?
Li Xin didn't understand for a while, and was dumbfounded.

But Bai Zhantang said: "Brother, hurry up! Let me in!"

Li Xin moved away subconsciously.

Bai Zhantang rushed into the restaurant, put the quilt on the table, breathed heavily through his nose, took a deep breath and said, "Huh! It's killing me!"

"What's the matter? You went back early in the morning, and then you were kicked out by Shopkeeper Tong?"

Li Xin also stepped into the door again and asked.

"No, I just went there, and I was smoked before I saw the shopkeeper. I can still hold my breath, but the bedding is not good! I have to go back!"

Bai Zhantang was extremely depressed.

He purposely got up early, trying to appear sincere, and apologized to Tong Xiangyu again.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the Tongfu Inn, he was stinked out by a guest inside.

"Then take it easy with me, I won't accompany you anymore, and I have to go to business."

Seeing that there was nothing serious, Li Xin didn't ask any more questions.

I left the restaurant and went to North Street.

"Brother Li, although what he did was a good thing, why is it a bit strange..."

Bai Zhantang has gradually become suspicious.

But he didn't want to explore, and he didn't want to focus on Li Xin. His focus was to coax Tong Xiangyu well first.

He paused for a moment, said something to Lei Li, left the quilt on the table temporarily, and walked to the opposite side.

This time he held his breath beforehand.

In the lobby, the foul-smelling guest was still standing, arguing with Guo Furong.

"I come to your inn, and I am a guest, so I can't even take a shower?"

The guest was a middle-aged man in his 50s and [-]s, his body was dirty and messy, his hair was like a chicken coop, and his face was ashen.

There was a bulging bag on his body, and he didn't know what was in it.

"Guest officer, our store really doesn't provide bathing services. The bathhouse is at the end of the East Street. You should go there."

Guo Furong held her nose while talking.

At most, the inn would give people a basin of water to wipe their bodies, which was the case when Li Xin first came.

And the guest in front of him asked for a large wooden basin and a lot of hot water.

"I don't want to go that far, really?"

The guest said.

"Your request is indeed difficult for us."

Guo Furong's eyes were full of disgust, she hoped that this person would leave quickly, she didn't want to serve him at all.

Snapped!
Unexpectedly, the guest casually threw a jade wrench and landed on the nearest table.

Guo Furong's eyes widened in an instant, and she quickly stepped forward to take the jade wrench away.

Whoosh!
But he saw a faster figure passing by, grabbing the jade wrench in his hand first.

It was Bai Zhantang.

"Old Bai, you... return it to me quickly! This is given to me by a guest!"

Guo Furong was so short of money, her eyes were red, and she rushed to grab it with both hands.

She pretended that her arm was not in good condition these two days, and escaped Tong Xiangyu's anger these two days.

In fact, it is completely fine, and now it is exposed.

"This thing is the real thing. Although the quality is a bit poor, let alone take a bath, you can wrap it in the bathhouse and wash it for seven days and seven nights."

Bai Zhantang raised his hand high, out of Guo Furong's reach, and ignored her words.

At the same time, he looked carefully with his eyes a few times, and he could tell if something was true or false.

He looked at the guest and suddenly felt familiar.

After thinking about it for a while, I asked, "Friend, did we meet on the black market?"

"Hehe, I didn't expect you to remember me. Are you the owner of this inn?"

The guest smiled and recognized Bai Zhantang.

When going to the black market, some people will disguise themselves and cover their faces. Bai Zhantang and Li Xin just bought two third-rate cheat books, so they don't have to be so cautious.

If he happened to have a good martial arts cheat book at that time, he would definitely remind Li Xin to leave temporarily and return to the black market in disguise.

Of course, the main reason is that the black market is strictly controlled and has a deep background, so they are not afraid of accidents on the spot.

"I'm just a waiter."

Bai Zhantang smiled slightly, but he was secretly vigilant.

He knew that this guest was a tomb robber, not a righteous person, so he had to be careful.

"You are very capable, but you are just a waiter?"

The guest raised his eyebrows, and went upstairs without saying much.

This time Guo Furong didn't stop him, after all, the jade fingers were taken away.
