Six-Year-Old Child, Baojiao, is Busy with Kingdom-Building

  Chapter 31 Staying at the Inn

   "Hey, come right now, come right now."

Liu Zhihua hurriedly took out the silver coins, picked one of them up and gave it to her son, and said: "Qiu Sheng, you save this silver coin and buy some paper, pens and books. You can study in school without worrying about money. Remember to read it for your future future." Your aunt is good."

   "Mother, the weather is getting windy, and it will definitely be cold halfway in the bullock cart, why don't you go back tomorrow."

   Qiusheng looked at the gloomy weather, worried that it would change soon, and it was getting dark, so it was not safe to ride an ox cart at night.

Liu Zhihua looked at the sky, and felt that she should be able to go back, but seeing the baby in her arms, she was afraid of the cold on the road, and she was a little entangled in her heart, but the hotel cost about 100 yuan, and she felt that it was a bit difficult to stay for one night. Not worth it.

  At this time, there was a muffled thunder in the sky.

  Boom!

  Jiaojiao hugged her mother's neck in fright, and buried her little face in her arms.

   "Don't be afraid, baby~ Mother is here..." Liu Zhihua hugged her daughter and patted her back to comfort her softly.

   "Go, go, it's going to rain..."

  Pedestrians passing by couldn't help but quicken their pace, and small stalls and shops on the side of the road also took out their rain-shielding tools and began to move.

  The old man who was waiting on the bullock cart opposite cursed a few words unhappily, and shouted at Liu Zhihua: "I can't leave today."

   Without waiting for Liu Zhihua to answer, he drove the ox cart away in a hurry.

Liu Zhihua sighed, hugged Jiaojiao and looked at the sky that was about to turn black, and said helplessly: "Forget it, it seems that I can't go back today, when your father comes over, I will find an inn for the night, and I will come back tomorrow." Bar."

   "That's fine." Qiu Sheng also heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was a thunderstorm before he was on his way.

  By the time Wang Zhuangzhi led Xiao Li and Erya back with the big and small bags, there were already tiny raindrops in the sky.

  The family went to two inns to compare, and the prices were the same, so they chose the cleaner one to rest and asked for two rooms.

   After settling down in the inn, Qiu Sheng went back to the school to live, otherwise he would be crowded with his father and younger brother and couldn't rest well.

  Wang Zhuangzhi sent his son to the school, and just after he returned, there were several roars outside, "Boom! Boom..."

  It was raining heavily, and the windows were rattling with raindrops.

  In the guest room,

  Liu Zhihua hugged Jiaojiao and fed water, smiled and said with emotion: "Fortunately, I didn't come back, otherwise I would be drowned on the road, and the money for staying in this hotel is not wasted."

   "Yes, taking medicine for getting sick in the rain is more expensive than staying in a hotel."

Wang Zhuangzhi nodded in agreement, heard the sound of raindrops falling outside, and said again: "It's so big, I guess the small stalls outside have closed down, I'll go downstairs and ask the innkeeper if there is anything to eat. Why don't you be hungry tonight."

   "Then go quickly, try to pick some hot food, if it's not Jiaojiao, it's not easy to digest." Liu Zhihua instructed.

Xiao Li was rolling on the bed in the inn. He had never lived in such a soft bed. When he heard his father talking about eating, he hurriedly got up from the bed, put on his shoes and threw himself on his father. go."

   "You are gluttonous, you are gluttonous again."

  Wang Zhuangzhi shook his head with a smile, and pulled Xiao Li out together.

   "Mother, it's better to be in the town, look at how magnificent these furniture are."

   Erya ran around the room looking, touched the cabinet, touched the tea table, her little face was full of envy.

   "How can ordinary people afford to live in an inn every day? It's all for the rich, so I can't envy you." Liu Zhihua shook his head and sighed.

  Today is also the first time for their family to stay in an inn, so it’s okay, but it hurts to pay for it. The money for one night’s stay in the inn can buy a basket of good eggs.

  Erya was still excited, and said loudly: "I want to dig a lot of herbs, and then we will build such a nice house to live in."

  Liu Zhihua smiled and shook her head when she heard the words, "You girl dare to think about anything."

She is naturally envious of seeing other people's houses built, but if their yellow mud house is to be built into a similar house, at least it needs to be dozens of taels larger. Living a tight life, how can there be more money from the rich.

  Because I can't see hope, I dare not think about it.

   "My sister is right. Digging medicinal materials can sell a lot of money. The earthen house is hard. In the future, we will buy wooden beds with soft cushions to sleep on."

   As she spoke, Jiaojiao touched the soft cushion on the bed while helping her sister to speak. This wooden bed is softer than the kang at home, and ginseng essence always likes a soft place to live.

   "Oh, you two little girls." Liu Zhihua touched Guaibao's feet with a smile, and coaxed: "Okay, I will buy soft wooden beds for Guaibao and sister."

  …

  It rained all night, and it was a little cool in the morning.

  I slept very well last night, but since Liu Zhihua got up, she started to worry again. It rained non-stop that night, and the earth house at home probably turned into yellow muddy water again.

  She said to the head of the house: "Because it's not raining, let's pack up our things and hire a carriage to go home. Otherwise, we are afraid that the weather will change. There is no one at home, and I don't know if some weasels are going to eat the hen that lays eggs."

  Wang Zhuangzhi was also worried about the family, so he nodded and said: "Listen, let's hire a carriage to go back, there is a shelter to keep the children from blowing."

  Liu Zhihua took the children to pack up, while Wang Zhuangzhi went out to look for a carriage.

  Wang Zhuangzhi wandered the street for half an hour before he found a carriage. He was a bit reluctant to hear that it was a coachman going to the countryside.

   "I bought a new carriage, the road to the country is full of muddy ditches, and I was appointed to make it dirty."

  Wang Zhuangzhi had no choice but to add another ten coins, and then led the groom back to the inn.

  The family moved their things into the carriage, and the coachman drove all the way towards the road.

  The carriage is much faster than the ox cart, the children are still asleep, Wang Zhuangzhi hugs the sleeping Xiao Li, Erya dozes off on his mother, and Liu Zhihua hugs the sleeping Jiaojiao in his arms.

Halfway through the carriage, Jiaojiao, who was in a drowsy sleep, was woken up by the urge to urinate, opened her eyes and found herself in the carriage, grabbed Mother's sleeve and shook it, Nuo Nuo shouted: "Mother, can the carriage stop for a while. "

  Liu Zhihua tidied Guaibao's messy hair and asked with a smile, "Does Guaibao need to go to the toilet?"

  Jiaojiao rubbed her eyes, nodded obediently and said, "Yes."

  The bed in the inn was too soft, she fell asleep and couldn't wake up.

  Liu Zhihua opened the curtain and said to the coachman outside: "Coachman, stop the carriage for a while, let me take the children for convenience."

"okay."

  The driver was also tired. He drove the carriage to the open space by the road, took off the water bag and started drinking water.

  Liu Zhihua took Jiaojiao to the jungle to relieve herself first.

  Wang Zhuangzhi called Xiao Li and Er Ya, and asked them if they wanted to relieve themselves: "Wake up soon, the carriage will stop right now, if you leave after a while, it won't stop."

  Hearing this, Xiao Li got up from his father's arms in a daze, muttering: "Dad, I want to pee."

  Wang Zhuangzhi hugged him and got out of the carriage, Xiao Li shook off his father and ran to a tree to pee directly.

  Erya was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, she raised her hand and waved at her father, "Father, just take Xiao Li with you, I won't go."

   After finishing speaking, she leaned against the carriage baffle to sleep, and woke up several times in the middle of the night last night, and now she is very sleepy.
