Chapter 105: Arrive at Zhengyang City
"Sister Zhou, you are really my sister." Gu Xiaoyou hugged Ms. Zhou gratefully and couldn't wait to lie down on the quilt.
Her waist felt much more comfortable instantly, and Gu Xiaoyou breathed a sigh of relief: "You are still the best to me."
Mrs. Zhou smiled fondly: "You're still not used to it. You can just ride more horse-drawn carriages in the future."
Gu Xiaoyou put his hands behind his head: "I may never get used to it in my lifetime."
How can someone who has ridden in a limousine become accustomed to a horse-drawn carriage?
Zhou shook her head and started to pack her luggage.
Gu Xiaoyou waved to Liang'er: "Come, let's lie down together."
"Thank you, Aunt Gu, I can just sit down." Liang'er said obediently, holding up the textbook and started reading.
Gu Xiaoyou lay bored, listening to the bright sound of reading in his ears, and fell asleep on the slightly bumpy carriage...
Suddenly, the carriage vibrated and stopped abruptly. Gu Xiaoyou rolled from one end of the carriage to the other and suddenly woke up.
Zhou supported Gu Xiaoyou, lifted the car curtain and asked Boss Liu: "What's going on?"
"A man jumped out on horseback. I wanted to avoid him..." Boss Liu's face turned pale and he explained apologetically.
Gu Xiaoyou rubbed his forehead and frowned: "I didn't hit anyone, did I?"
"No." Boss Liu said.
"That's good, where are we?" Gu Xiaoyou looked out of the car and saw a spacious road with green trees on both sides and a tea shed not far away.
"We are almost arriving at Zhengyang City."
The sound sounded familiar to Gu Xiaoyou, and she suddenly remembered that the roasted rabbit legs that Mu Wuchen brought to her seemed to be the food of Zhengyang City.
He asked with a bit of joy in his tone: "Is there a Chunfeng Tower in Zhengyang City?"
"Yes, there is a Chunfeng Tower." Boss Liu recalled it and replied affirmatively.
Gu Xiaoyou looked at the sky and asked Boss Liu: "How long until we arrive?"
Boss Liu estimated: "About an hour."
"Then let's spend the night in Zhengyang City, and I'll invite you to Chunfeng Tower." Gu Xiaoyou said proudly.
"Okay, sit tight, I'll set off soon." Boss Liu grinned and quickly drove the carriage.
Gu Xiaoyou lowered the car curtain, listened to the sound of horse hooves in his ears, and raised the corners of his mouth in anticipation.
An hour later, the carriage got on the stone road and soon arrived at the gate of Zhengyang City.
The carriage was stopped at the gate of the city. Just as Boss Liu was about to take out the guide, he saw a slender hand stretching out from the curtain of the carriage, holding a waist badge, and flashed it in front of the guard.
The guard saw the seal on the belt clearly, immediately put away his spear, and said respectfully: "Please enter the city."
Boss Liu was shocked, admired Gu Xiaoyou even more, and immediately drove into the city.
Gu Xiaoyou took back his badge without any haste, but he didn't expect that what Mu Wuchen gave him was quite useful.
Zhengyang City is a bit more prosperous than Qingcheng County, and you can still hear the faint sounds of hawking on the streets at sunset.
As the carriage pulled over, Gu Xiaoyou curiously lifted the curtain and looked outside, seeing the crowds of people passing through the alleys, restaurants full of guests on both sides of the street, and the lights all over the street, making it very lively.
"Boss Gu, should we go to the hotel first or the Chunfeng Building first?" Boss Liu asked more politely.
Gu Xiaoyou thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the hotel first and put our luggage away first."
"Okay, it's all up to you."
Boss Liu drove forward. He was obviously very familiar with Zhengyang City, and he quickly stopped at a luxurious inn outside.
Gu Xiaoyou opened the car curtain and took a look at the signboard, Laifu Inn.
The waiter came out quickly and said, "Are these guests going to the hotel or staying in the hotel?"
"Stay one night." Gu Xiaoyou replied casually, put his arm on Boss Liu's arm and got out of the carriage.
When Gu Xiaoyou stood firm, Boss Liu turned around with a wink and helped Liang'er and Zhou down.
Gu Xiaoyou noticed Boss Liu's performance and praised: "You are quite clever."
Boss Liu narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "It's all what I should do."
As he said that, he carried the large and small bags of luggage in his hands and followed Gu Xiaoyou and others through the door diligently.
Gu Xiaoyou imitated the actions in the TV series, took out a piece of silver from his wallet, slapped it on the counter, and said loudly: "Shopkeeper, please open two rooms for me."
"Okay, sir, please come upstairs." The shopkeeper accepted the silver ingot and said with a smile.
The waiter helped Boss Liu with his luggage and said enthusiastically: "Guests, please come with me."
"Lead the way." Gu Xiaoyou clasped his hands behind his back and followed the waiter upstairs with his head held high.
Zhou covered her mouth and snickered, leading Liang'er to follow.
"These two rooms are Tianzi Room 5 and Tianzi Room 6. They are the best rooms in our inn." The waiter introduced enthusiastically.
Gu Xiaoyou looked at it for a few times and said, "Sister Zhou, we will live in one room, and Boss Liu and Liang'er will live in the same room."
"Okay." Neither Zhou nor Boss Liu had any objections. They each chose a room and pushed the door open.
The waiter helped put the luggage away and bowed his hand to Gu Xiaoyou: "My guest, your things have been put away for you."
"Okay, thank you." Gu Xiaoyou took out a few coins and put them in the waiter's hand.
The waiter said cheerfully: "If you have anything to do, please call me and I will come right away."
"It's okay for now. You can go down first." Gu Xiaoyou said casually while looking around the room.
"I won't disturb our guest's rest." The waiter opened the door and left quietly.
Gu Xiaoyou stuffed her luggage into the closet and said to Mrs. Zhou, "Sister Zhou, let's go to Chunfeng Tower."
"Okay." Zhou didn't have any objections and agreed happily.
The two sisters went to the door of the next room. Gu Xiaoyou knocked on the door and called: "Liang'er, Boss Liu, let's go, let's go have dinner."
"Come on." Boss Liu responded loudly and took Liang'er's hand to open the door.
Gu Xiaoyou raised a hand in high spirits and waved it in the air like a tour guide: "Everyone, follow me. Let's move towards Chunfeng Tower."
Gu Xiaoyou walked happily through the inn, stopped suddenly at the door, and asked sarcastically: "Boss Liu, where is Chunfeng Tower?"
Boss Liu suppressed his smile and pointed to the left: "It's just to the north, just a few hundred steps away."
Gu Xiaoyou touched his nose, pretended as if nothing had happened, and continued walking forward.
Zhou and Liang'er looked at each other and smiled, and followed quickly. Boss Liu followed at a leisurely pace, looking around and keeping vigilant.
The group of people soon arrived at Chunfeng Tower.
Gu Xiaoyou looked at the building in front of him and praised: "This place is really magnificent."
Zhou and Liang'er nodded in agreement: "It's really impressive."
They all came from small places, and this was the first time they saw such a big restaurant.
