Chapter 71

The two rushed to the post station and knocked on the door desperately. The gatekeeper's impatient voice came late, "Sleep..."

With the sound, the gate of the inn was slowly opened. The gatekeeper rubbed his eyes and saw that the two people were dressed plainly and were not officials. He was instantly dissatisfied, "Walk, walk, is this a place where your country people can live?"

Before the words finished, the gatekeeper wanted to close the door. Qin Tie niu's eyes were quick, and he stretched out his foot to block the door. "The room is empty, and we are not living in vain."

As soon as Qin Tieniu finished speaking, Qin Lu began to look for copper coins on her body. Although the purse was taken away by the gangsters, she still had copper coins on her body.

After groping for a while, Qin Lu looked at the guard in embarrassment, and handed him the only copper plate she had left with her little hand.

The gatekeeper weighed the copper plate in his hand, and said sarcastically: "What kind of place is this? This is a post station, and officials usually come to live here. Do you want to use such a small amount of copper plate to live here?"

Faced with the gatekeeper's ridicule, Qin Lu silently endured it. After all, this is the way it is in this era. It is impossible for you to do anything without money.

But she didn't give up, and continued to search in the baggage, and finally let her touch a box of snacks, which she made for Qin Tieniu when he came here, and he was reluctant to eat it.

Thinking of this, she quickly took out the snacks and handed them to the gatekeeper, "My lord, these snacks are worth a lot of money outside, you can try it, it's good for us tonight, we can share a small room .”

Qin Lu's eyes are serious and serious, and the smart eyes give people a very sincere feeling. The gatekeeper is not the kind of person who is very arrogant. Now that he sees the dim sum, although he is displeased, he let go, "If this is delicious, I reluctantly accept."

While speaking, the gatekeeper picked up a piece of dim sum and took a bite, and then a look of surprise appeared on his face, "Where did you buy this dim sum? I haven't eaten such a delicious dim sum before."

"My lord, as long as you think it's delicious, I made it myself. If you want to eat it, I'll make it for you tomorrow."

"You did it?" The gatekeeper looked at Qin Lu in disbelief.

Being looked at by the other party like this, Qin Lu smiled, "Well, I did it, do you think this can be used as a one-night room fee?"

Qin Lu looked at the gatekeeper with expectant eyes. He was silent for a moment, but he made a little gap and waved at them.

Qin Lu quickly pulled Qin Tieniu into the station, and the two went up the stairs. The gatekeeper said while eating snacks, "The one on the far left."

"Thank you." Qin Lu thanked repeatedly, fearing that the other party would repent, she dragged Qin Tieniu up.

As they pushed open the door, facing the moonlight, the two of them also saw the scene inside the room. There was a couch and a soft chair on the far side, which was already very good for them. She looked at it with eyes full of surprise. To Qin Tieniu, "Tie Niu, there is no need to make the floor today."

"Well, daughter-in-law, it's getting late, hurry up and rest." Qin Tieniu softly comforted Qin Lu, made the bed and then lay down to sleep.

Perhaps it was due to the exhaustion of the night, Qin Lu fell into a deep sleep not long after laying down, but Qin Tieniu couldn't fall asleep at all.

Tossing and turning, she looked at the sleeping Qin Lu from time to time, her clear eyes were full of affection and reluctance.

Qin Tieniu looked at Qin Lu for a while, his eyes became darker, as if there was a cold light in the dark night, some images kept flashing in his mind, he had remembered these before, but they were not as clear as now .

He can even clearly see the pictures in his memory, the majestic buildings, the Eastern Palace...

That's right, the palace.

As long as Qin Tieniu closed his eyes, he could see the palace and the maids. Some of the refugees were dressed in the clothes of the palace maids.

He guessed that something must have happened to the palace, but what happened and what it had to do with him, he couldn't think of it for a while, and couldn't figure it out.

But the growing anxiety prevented him from falling asleep at all.

When he realized that his identity was not simple, even related to the palace, Qin Tieniu was really afraid that Qin Lu would be hurt by him.

After thinking about it for most of the night, Qin Tieniu couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep slowly in the early morning.

When Qin Lu woke up and saw that Qin Tieniu was sleeping soundly, she didn't bother her, she got up gently and went outside the station, and saw that the gatekeeper had already got up, she glanced at her, and said disdainfully, "Well, when you get up, didn't you say you can cook? Hurry up and cook some food, I want to see if you really have such a good skill."

Apparently the gatekeeper thought the dim sum was delicious, but he didn't believe that Qin Lu made it.

She wasn't in a hurry, anyway, cooking was just a matter of grasping for her, she smiled slightly, "Alright sir, you rest, I'll cook right away."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Lu hurried to the back kitchen. There were quite a lot of things in the kitchen, including vegetables, rice, noodles, and oil. It seemed that the food in the station was pretty good.

It's just that there are only a few guards in this station, and there is no cook. For a person like the gatekeeper who doesn't know how to cook, these ingredients are useless.

Listening to the gatekeeper's nagging, Qin Lu knew that the inn would only let the cook come over when there were important people from above, and they usually deal with them casually when they eat.

Hearing this, Qin Lu complimented: "My lord, don't worry, I'm here today, and I'm sure I'll let you eat the best food in the world."

Such words did not surprise the gatekeeper, but instead gave her a supercilious look, "Stop talking big, my lord, I have seen too many people say that they are capable, you should do it first and then talk about it."

As the gatekeeper left the kitchen, Qin Lu hurriedly started cooking.

There are a lot of ingredients, she didn't stop the car for a while, she just made a lot, such as cold cucumber, stir-fried rapeseed, braised fish, shredded pork in sauce...

When she finished cooking these meals, Qin Tieniu had already woken up. He didn't see her in the house, so he hurried out to look for her a little worried. It happened that she came out with the food and looked at each other. She smiled slightly, "Tie Niu, you Wake up, just in time to help."

Qin Tieniu was also unambiguous and hurried forward to help Qin Lu serve the food. The gatekeeper smelled the aroma and unconsciously followed him to the table. Looking at the food on the table, he even looked at his companion in disbelief, "That girl made this ?”

"What do you think? Could it be that you thought I did it?" The companion was also amazed at Qin Lu's craftsmanship, let alone whether it tastes good or not, the color alone is enough to attract people.

When Qin Lu brought all the meals to the table, they couldn't believe it, "You really made these."

"My lord, I did make it. You should try it first." Qin Lu called them to eat.

The gatekeeper was also ambiguous, since the dim sum he ate last night was not bad, he felt that the food should be not bad.

After eating, the gatekeeper immediately began to pick up food crazily, and the rest of the people did the same. While eating, they praised Qin Lu, "You little girl, despite your small size, your cooking skills are really good."
