The monk left the town, the rain stopped, and the sky was clear. The spoon removed the shed in the backyard, and all the monsters stretched their waists, wishing to stuff the whole sun into their mouths and eat it to warm up.
In the afternoon, she calculated the days and was about to leave for the hot springs. During dinner at night, Shaozi said, "Shopkeeper, I want to ask for five days off."
The scholar paused: "Hot spring?"
"Ok."
"Ah... I don't know what happened recently. My bones are sore and soft. It must be because of the rainy weather. I think I'm going to take a bubble bath to relax my muscles."
Shaozi didn't even think about it: "If we all go, whoever will watch at the inn can't do it."
The scholar who was rejected because of the intervention of the third party inn was very, very unhappy! I can only watch Shaozi happily go to Lingquan, and wait at the inn. Thinking of the white and white spoon swimming around in the steaming hot spring alone, wiping his nose... Ah, I'm even more unhappy!
Five days later, in the morning, the sun first appeared.
The scholar came back from collecting dew outside, and prepared to make "big tonic soup" for the spoon. As soon as he entered the inn, he could smell the faint fragrance of flowers. There was a pause in the steps, and the spoon came back.
He walked towards the backyard step by step, and as soon as he entered, he saw peonies blooming.
Green leaves hang from the morning dew, and the ambiguous warm sun pours in, like crystals of colored glaze. The large flowers have overlapping layers of petals, and clusters of pink and white like butterflies. It is as white as snow on a capped mountain, pink is better than peach blossoms and enchanting, and the golden stamens in the central ring, the three colors complement each other, making people intoxicated.
He approached lightly, leaned over to take a closer look, it was really as beautiful as coming from the sky, where can you find it in the world. The early summer breeze blew by, raising a green leaf, slightly imprinted on the lips, he couldn't help but pause, and his heartstrings rippling. At the end, he smiled lightly: "Yanyanjin is not as good as Yaoyao Tao."
Hearing someone knocking on the door in the front hall, he was very reluctant to leave, but if a guest came and refused to go by himself, she would probably stare at him again later. The scholar smiled helplessly, then got up and left.
As soon as he left, a bunch of monsters jumped out of the yard and continued to stretch their waists to absorb the warm sunlight.
Climbing on the wall, he asked: "What does 'Yanyan Jin is not as good as Yaoyao Tao' mean?"
All the demons who have never studied... Then collectively sighed with emotion: "I don't know."
After sighing, all the monsters saw Shaozi sitting on the edge of the flower bed in a daze, and they approached and said, "Boss, don't think about the meaning of this so seriously, you are not such a studious monster."
The spoon touched his face, and asked them seriously: "Just now... did that stupid scholar kiss my forehead?"
Climbing and raising his hand: "Boss, the scholar kissed your forehead, why are you touching your face?"
The spoon loosened for a moment, that's right... why is she touching her face... it seems... her face is a little hot
Du Juan looked at her suspiciously: "Boss, don't you like scholars?"
Shaozi was furious: "I like the tall, handsome and hearty Gaoren! The scholar runs away when the wind blows! It's not reliable at all."
She just got up and patted the dust on her butt, and went to work, these ruthless monsters! How can she understand her admiration for an expert!
When he was almost in the front hall, he heard the beating of the abacus, and he stopped. She was lying behind the door, looking forward with her head. The scholar lowered his head and concentrated, his slender fingers fiddling with the black beads. The spoon retracted his head and shook his head vigorously. What's the matter with this feeling of enjoyment just looking at it. She touched her chin. Could it be that planning can really make a person look more handsome
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard a female voice from Yingying: "The shopkeeper's abacus calculation is really good, but unfortunately the inn is not full of people, so I can only do some small calculations every day."
The spoon probed to look again, and saw a big girl standing in front of the cash drawer, shaking with laughter. Take a closer look, isn't this woman Lin Shuixian, the daughter of the fat shopkeeper of the Jinxiu Inn opposite, is she here to spy on the enemy
Lin Shuixian moved her head together, mysteriously: "Hey, let me tell you, my father wants to buy your inn, decorate it, and change it to No. 2 Splendid Inn. You are still the shopkeeper, and you will get half of the profit. Forget about my father, there is no risk and no pressure at all."
When Shaozi heard it, he was about to have a fit, but saw the scholar smiled slightly: "Thank you for your kindness, miss, I have no such plan."
Lin Shuixian stared: "Why? It's such a good deal."
The scholar didn't even think about it: "The name is too ugly."
"..."
The spoon is secretly happy, the shopkeeper is so good! Or Tongfu Inn sounds good! Immediately, I was in a very happy mood, humming a tune and went to the kitchen to pick up the vegetable basket, ready to buy ingredients. When I entered the kitchen, I saw everyone outside chatting together, as if they saw something interesting. She jumped out of the window, opened a mouth, and also wanted to watch the excitement. In the end, I saw a little girl squatting on the ground, trembling with her head in her arms. If you look closely, it's a little monster.
She put her hands on her hips and said, "Tell me honestly, where did you catch the little monster again?"
Climbing and raising his hand again: "Report to the boss, just now a shiny thing floated from the river behind, I fished it out, it's a lotus lantern, I was thinking about drying it and lighting it up, and then I saw it transformed into a person."
The spoon tilted his head to look at her, the lotus lantern... Isn't that the lantern that carries people missing their relatives and exiles to the river during the Lantern Festival? Such a weak demonic energy can actually transform people. Seeing that she is in a good mood, she said softly, "Where are you going? May I carry you back to the river?"
The lantern trembled and didn't answer, just as the spoon touched her head, she suddenly raised her head, her eyes widened, her little face turned pale, and she fainted from fright!
There was chaos in the backyard:
"It's not good! Boss scared people to death!"
"That's enough of you! She fainted, okay?"
"The boss is so fierce, he won't be able to get married."
"..."
Hearing the bustle and bustle in the backyard, the scholar smiled, and finally sighed, there are so many monsters coming and going in this inn, why don't you change the name to Monster Inn
The scholar had just come up with the idea of changing the Tongfu Inn into a monster inn, when he saw the spoon coming out with a palm-sized lotus lantern in his hand, he couldn't help laughing and said: "The Ghost Festival hasn't come yet, why did you turn it out?" .”
It is said that it was dug out because the lamp is already a bit dilapidated. It's just that the evil spirit is extremely weak, and it must have just formed.
The spoon put the lamp on the table and wiped it with a clean cloth: "This is clearly a little monster, but a cowardly monster. I just touched her finger and she fainted from fright." Finally, she looked up at him, "Shopkeeper, I look fierce?"
The scholar tilted his face, unable to meet the burning gaze in his bright eyes: "No, not fierce."
The spoon nodded reassuringly, and carefully wiped the lamp clean. This lotus lantern is made of bamboo, the workmanship is not very fine, and the thickness of the bamboo surface is different, and the petals formed are not neat and not very attractive. It's just that the thin wire hoop is very serious at the junction of the thin slices, and the lamp maker should be a novice. She could understand why the lotus lantern turned into a little monster, because it was full of longing. When longing is brought to the extreme, it is very easy to become a demon. Thinking of this, Shaozi wondered how did he become a spirit? She only knew that when she had a perception, she was already in the valley.
From the corner of the eye, he caught sight of two people walking in from the outside. The spoon hurriedly put down the rag, and stepped forward to ask, "Is the guest staying at the hotel or playing the tip?"
The man was tall, and Shao Qiao had to look up to see him. Fortunately, there were quite a few monsters this tall, so the height of this mortal didn't seem surprising. The man frowned, glanced around the store, and asked: "Girl, ask someone, have you ever met a man who always wears green shirts, doesn't look like a good person at first glance, and is surprisingly lazy?"
Spoon shook his head: "No."
She loves to wear blue shirts, but she knows a... expert, who always wears bamboo green clothes, which looks like a fairy. But the expert was so lazy, he made it clear that he was not.
The man frowned, muttered, "Why didn't I feel it clearly?", and then left. Shao Shao shook his head and turned to face the cash drawer, "Shopkeeper, we really want to put up a sign asking for directions and collecting money... Shopkeeper?"
After calling out, the scholar straightened up from the back of the cabinet, took a copper coin in his hand, and sighed: "When did this drop, it was too careless."
As he spoke, he looked at the departing man in black, his face twitched slightly, he didn't look like a good person... he was so lazy, don't slander his image in front of the spoon, okay? He looked at himself again, the aura was clearly well hidden... A moment later he remembered that Yue Mo had appeared too frequently as an expert recently, and it seemed that he would continue to be a scholar.
"The treasurer."
The scholar came back to his senses and smiled lightly: "Huh?"
The spoon asked: "What if she is no longer incarnated? I have to ask her clearly whether she should be sent back to the river or not. I can't stay in the inn all the time."
The scholar looked at it for a while, took the paper, drew a circle with a pen, and handed it to her: "Paste it on the lamp."
