Chapter 244： What a beauty

Chapter 244 What a beauty

Qin Ying smiled and said, "I wonder if Mr. Xu has heard that the Protector's Lady is going to hold a poetry party in the newly built garden next month, and she has asked me to invite some talented women on her behalf."

Mr. Xu raised his eyebrows and said, "That's it."

“It’s just that Miss Gu is just a girl from a common family, her status is too low, so I’m afraid she’s not suitable.”

Qin Ying said calmly: "Mrs. Protector has long said that anyone with any status can enter the garden as long as they are talented or beautiful. Since this Miss Gu can be praised by Mr. Su, she must be outstanding. Please let Mr. Xu know.”

When it came to this matter, Mr. Xu could not say anything more, "Miss Gu has opened an inn, which is not far to the east on this street."

Qin Ying blessed him and said, "Thank you very much, sir."

Speaking, he walked out.

A maid standing in the corner quickly followed.

Mr. Xu looked at her back and curled his lips slightly. Who didn't know? He heard that the mountain chief admired Su Chen very much and intended to betroth his granddaughter to him.

Of course, this is a rumor, but looking at Miss Qin's behavior, this rumor is probably 70-80% accurate.

Qin Ying left the book shop, did not get in the car, and walked slowly eastward.

She paid attention to the shop signs on both sides of the street. It didn't take long before she saw a shop with a large front door. A sign with gold characters on a black background hung above the door, "There is an inn."

Qin Ying walked closer, slowed down, turned and looked into the inn.

The furnishings of the inn are novel and exquisite. It is different from the inns I have seen before. There is even a rockery pool in the hotel hall.

Looking again, I saw a girl sitting at the counter.

Only half of her face was visible. Her skin was as white as snow, her bones and flesh were shiny, and she had a head of green silk stockings. The girl was doing embroidery with her head lowered.

At this time, someone came over to talk to her. The girl raised her head and saw a pair of clear autumn eyes shining brightly under her willow eyebrows.

Qin Ying couldn't help but sigh in her heart, what a beauty.

She hesitated for a moment, paused at the door for a few seconds, and then went straight forward.

Lanzhi was sitting at the counter, talking to Lian'er, "Where did Xiao Fei go? This girl's hands are injured and she's restless."

Soon it was noon, and there were more and more guests eating in the inn.

Gu Fei injured her hand today and didn't go to the kitchen to help. She sent Lian'er to keep an eye on the kitchen in case someone took advantage of the chaos and put something into the dishes.

  After Butler Wu said that, she was always a little anxious in her heart, not knowing what means he planned to use to deal with her.

The business in the store is particularly good today, and the lobby is full.

A wave of customers left the store, and another wave came in. It was bustling, and five or six government servants came in and took a look at the store. One of them said loudly: "Who is the shopkeeper in the store?"

Gu Fei hurriedly came out of the counter and said, "This little girl is the shopkeeper. I don't know what the orders are from the bosses."

One of the yamen servants had a mole next to his nose, which looked like the leader of several people. This man raised the sign in his hand at Gu Fei, "We are from the yamen. Someone reported that your shop is harboring criminals from the imperial court. We Search now."

Gu Fei was startled, quickly apologized, and secretly handed over a ten-tael piece of silver to this person, "It's okay for some bad guys. As long as the guests stay in the hotel, the shop has checked the road signs and registered them carefully. Brother, you can read the registration book."

The man waved his hand and did not take the money. He sneered and said, "I'll look at the book later. I'll search it first!"

With a wave of his hand, several government servants following him shouted at the guests who were still eating, "The government is on errands, and idle people should stay away!"
