Chapter 93 What a big show

The next morning!
Before the hazy moonlight dissipated in the sky, there was a crackling sound in the inn, waking up everyone who was resting in the house.

Everyone yawned and gathered in the lobby and looked up at Tong Xiangyu's room, the sound was obviously coming from there.

Looking at the sky with a big mouth, he said:

"What is the shopkeeper doing here? It's too early!"

The scholar dozed off while hugging the pillar and echoed:
"That's right! That's right! After a while, the next door will come to us and say they're disturbing the people."

Bai Zhantang waved his hand to stop everyone from talking and motioned Guo Furong to ask. Guo Furong pointed to himself with a puzzled expression and said:
"why me?"

Bai Zhantang explained from the side:

"You have a good relationship with the shopkeeper. If Xiaochen is not here, of course you will go."

This sentence hit Guo Furong's heart, she said proudly:
"That's a must! Wait for the news of my victory!"

After that, go upstairs!

In front of Tong Xiangyu's door, Guo Furong patted on the door and said:
"The shopkeeper! The shopkeeper!"

The violent knock on the door woke Tong Xiangyu inside the room, and he quickly opened the door and asked:
"What's wrong? Xiao Guo"

Seeing that Tong Xiangyu didn't know how loud she was making, Guo Furong had no choice but to slap Tong Xiangyu on the forehead and bring Tong Xiangyu to the hall. She didn't realize that she was making such a loud voice when everyone was chattering.

Then he apologized to everyone and said:

"Sorry! I didn't know this thing was so loud"

When everyone heard this, they looked curiously at what Tong Xiangyu was doing so early. Seeing that everyone was curious, she had to change the subject and let everyone continue to rest. It will be closed today.

Hearing that Tong Xiangyu gave everyone a holiday, everyone's attention was really attracted by the sudden holiday, and they all left the hall and went back to rest. They didn't care what Tong Xiangyu was doing, but reminded her to pay attention to her voice.

Bai Zhantang looked at Tong Xiangyu worriedly, fearing that something might happen to her, he walked up to her and wanted to ask what she was doing?
Tong Xiangyu was a little embarrassed when she saw Bai Zhantang, but she couldn't say it clearly. This incident really made Tong Xiangyu a little embarrassed. She made her think too much. If Bai Zhantang knew about it, she would not be ashamed to death.

Tong Xiangyu hadn't figured out how to answer Bai Zhantang yet, looking around, she suddenly found that there were only the two of them in the hall, and suddenly she had a flash of inspiration and said with a smile:

"I'm fine! I'm just thinking about Hu Shiniang's affairs. After all, it's the entrustment of shopkeeper Sai, we still have to take it seriously. I'm a little irritable in the room."

After finishing speaking, Tong Xiangyu stared at Bai Zhantang to observe his reaction, and Bai Zhantang knew that this was the reason for her behavior, so he said with a relaxed expression:

"I thought there was something wrong. At worst, we won't take this order!"

Tong Xiangyu's eyes lit up when he heard the words and said tentatively:

"Then Hu Shiniang can't come to our inn? Weren't you very excited before?"

Bai Zhantang said indifferently:

"If you don't come, don't come! She is not a big shot"

Seeing that Bai Zhantang really didn't care about this matter, Tong Xiangyu confirmed that Zhang Chen's guess last night was correct.

Then he looked at him with a smile. After staring at Bai Zhantang with bright eyes, he was a little apprehensive, and Tong Xiangyu said with a smile:

"How can you not earn money?

After hearing Tong Xiangyu's familiar words, Bai Zhantang was sure that she was really fine. After all, such a money-loving person is the real Tong Xiangyu.

There was a knock on the door between the two of them talking!

Seeing that there was no answer, another strong voice came, "The lady of the Hu family is here, and she hasn't opened the door to greet her yet."

The deep voice spread throughout the inn, so everyone had to gather in the lobby again, looking at Tong Xiangyu with resentment.

Seeing this, Tong Xiangyu could only smile awkwardly. Who knew that Hu Shiniang and his group would come today, but now is not the time to talk, so he quickly asked the exhibition hall to open the door to welcome them.

I didn't expect to see only a middle-aged man standing outside the door as soon as I opened the door, but I didn't see anyone else.

The middle-aged man saw him looking past him to the street, so he could only speak again:
"My surname is Liu, and I'm Lady Hu's bodyguard."

"I came here in advance this time to confirm with the shopkeeper the welcome process for Mrs. Hu's arrival. I wonder who is the shopkeeper?"

Everyone in the house heard the words and went to the door to look at Liu Shiwei in surprise, while Tong Xiangyu walked up to him with a round fan and said with a smile:
"And this store is the shopkeeper, so why tell me anything?"

Seeing the appearance of the shopkeeper of the inn, Liu Shiwei clasped his fists and saluted and said:
"I hope you can forgive me! My tenth mother is waiting in the gazebo ten miles away. Some details have been negotiated with the shopkeeper. Please take a look at the shopkeeper."

After finishing speaking, he handed a long letter to Tong Xiangyu from his bosom. Tong Xiangyu took the long letter and glanced at it before saying dumbfounded:
"No way!"

Unexpectedly, the guard Liu who disagreed stretched out his hand to express his disapproval, and then said:
"My wife is weak and needs to be served carefully, so these are things that must be done. Didn't shopkeeper Sai tell you?"

Only then did Tong Xiangyu know why Sai Diaochan had to give a large sum of money, and Hu Shiniang was not easy to serve as the co-author.

After Tong Xiangyu read the request carefully, he forced a smile and said:
"We will do our best, please rest assured Liu Shiwei"

Seeing that Tong Xiangyu agreed to come down, Liu Shiwei clasped his fists and left.

After Liu Shiwei left, everyone went to Tong Xiangyu's side to see what was required to make the shopkeeper's expression.

The scholar took the long letter and glanced at it, then began to calculate crazily in his heart, and said in surprise after a while:
"So expensive!"

Everyone was attracted by Xiucai's broken voice and motioned him to explain in detail. Xiucai coughed and explained:

"This Hu Shiniang is so ostentatious! The standard in this letter alone costs thousands of taels of silver, and the three meals a day are comparable to a princess! This is definitely not a good master to serve"

Everyone agrees with what Xiucai said, after all, he sent someone to order to arrange these ostentations before he came to the inn, and if this person came, he wouldn't necessarily bother everyone.

But it's a bit late to say these things now, people are already going to the inn, and in the end Tong Xiangyu decided to keep Hu Shiniang, after all, he couldn't lose the signboard of Tongfu Inn.

Immediately Tong Xiangyu asked everyone to prepare things according to the requirements on the list in order to welcome Hu Shiniang's arrival.

After everyone prepared the welcome tools and cleaned the inn and room, they stood outside the door and waited for Hu Shiniang's arrival.

This wait is an hour in the past!
Seeing that they hadn't come to the inn for such a long time, everyone couldn't help complaining that they were playing tricks!
The rest of the journey would take an hour to reach the inn, not to mention that they were riding horses and sedan chairs, how could it be so slow.

Amidst the complaints from the crowd, a long pink sedan chair finally appeared at the corner of the street, slowly driving towards the inn.

 Thanks for the support!
