(330) Accommodation issues



Everything that should be in the house was there. After Zhang Xiao agreed, Hong Baobao handed the money to Zhang Xiao and then went out to call Chen Yong and Li Qing.

Chen Yong and Li Qing waited outside for a long time, but Hong Baobao didn't return, which made them a little worried. Fortunately, Hong Baobao finally came out.

When Hong Baobao came out, she brought them good news, saying that they could go to Zhang Xiao's house for dinner.

Chen Yong asked, "Baby, how much did lunch cost in total?"

Chen Yong's family is from the countryside. When he was a child, his family was very poor. Now, although he is rich and his living conditions are better, he is still quite frugal.

Upon hearing Chen Yong's words, Hong Baobao smiled slyly and said, "It cost a total of three hundred yuan."

When Hong Baobao said this, Li Qing felt that it was a bit high, but not too outrageous. After all, she usually spent about the same amount when she went out to eat.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yong felt that Hong Baobao had been deceived.

After all, judging from Hong Baobao's appearance, she is not very old, so it is very likely that she has encountered someone who is making exorbitant demands on her.

Chen Yong's expression immediately changed. He said to Hong Baobao, "Baobao, that person must have lied to you. Let's go and get the money back."

They only had 1,000 yuan in total. It was only the first day, and they had already spent 300 yuan on just one lunch. If this continued, they would probably go hungry by tomorrow.

Honestly, it's his fault too. Why didn't he go with Hong Baobao? If he had gone with her, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

Seeing Hong Baobao secretly smiling, and glancing at Chen Yong, Li Qing suddenly had a guess.

“Baby, are you lying to us? Actually, it didn’t cost three hundred yuan, right?” Li Qing said.

When Hong Baobao heard Li Qing say that, she chuckled and said, "Yes, it cost a total of thirty yuan."

It was only at this moment that Chen Yong realized that he had been deceived by Hong Baobao.

He couldn't help but find it a little funny; he had actually been fooled by Hong Baobao.

"Baby, you really fooled me completely." Chen Yong wasn't angry that Hong Baobao had lied to him; on the contrary, he breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it didn't cost 300 yuan, it would be fine; otherwise, he was really afraid he would burst into tears.

After all, three hundred yuan is a very important amount to them these days.

"Okay, Yong-ge, Qing-jie, let's go quickly, I'm starving." Hong Baobao rubbed her stomach pitifully, looking like a kitten waiting to be fed.

This made Li Qing's hands itch; she really wanted to pat Hong Baobao's head.

Thinking this, Li Qing actually reached out and rubbed Hong Baobao's head.

Li Qing especially loves cats. She has a cat at home, and she feels that Hong Baobao looks just like her cat right now. She is very cute.

Hong Baobao had gotten used to Jing Pei rubbing her head, so when Li Qing reached out to touch her head, she didn't dodge.

Even Chen Yong couldn't help but clench his fist. Actually, he really wanted to pat Hong Baobao's head, but he held back. After all, he wasn't a woman, and doing so would be a bit awkward.

Hong Baobao brought Chen Yong and Li Qing to Zhang Xiao's house. Zhang Xiao was always quick in everything she did.

When they arrived at Zhang Xiao's house, Zhang Xiao had already made most of the preparations.

Zhang Xiao was steaming rice, and now she was preparing to stir-fry some dishes.

Hong Baobao and Li Qing were also busy. They helped Zhang Xiao whenever they could, but they could only assist Hong Baobao.

An hour later, the food was ready, and the group sat down together for lunch before saying their goodbyes.

Before leaving, each of the three women wrote an autograph for Zhang Xiao.

After they had lunch, they went out and wandered around the village for a while to get a general understanding of it.

This was the first time anyone in the village had ever seen a celebrity. Many people would stroll along the roadside after dinner, and when they saw Hong Baobao and the others, they would gather together to talk about it.

Chen Yong and Li Qing were too far away to hear what they were saying, but Hong Baobao could hear it.

They were all praising them, and although they were speaking in dialect, the meaning was still easy to understand.

Hong Baobao felt that the people here were very nice.

She'll be spending the entire month here, and she's really looking forward to it.

In the afternoon, they weren't in a hurry to make money; instead, they thought they should find a place to stay first.

There are quite a few families in the village with many houses, but they all ask for too high prices.

Finally, Chen Yong spoke up: "Baby, Xiaoqing, I see that Zhang Xiao's house has quite a few rooms. How about we go ask Zhang Xiao and rent one to live in? What do you think?"

The main reason is that the people in this village all charge high prices. He felt that Zhang Xiao was a kind-hearted child, so he figured she wouldn't charge too much.

Hong Baobao asked Li Qing for his opinion, and Li Qing also thought it was a good idea, so he agreed.

Moreover, Zhang Xiao's family currently consists of only her, a young girl, and the family size is small, so they don't need to worry about anything else happening.

Besides, they had lunch at Zhang Xiao's house at noon. Compared to the other people in the village, they were more familiar with Zhang Xiao.

After the three of them discussed it, they headed straight for Zhang Xiao's house.

Zhang Xiao's house was right by the roadside, but all the houses here were similar, and Chen Yong and Li Qing didn't remember the way, so they didn't know which house was Zhang Xiao's.

Li Qing said with some annoyance, "Do you two remember which family Zhang Xiao's family is? I forgot."

Li Qing has a poor sense of direction. She wasn't very familiar with the area to begin with, and besides, the houses here all looked pretty much the same. So, for a moment, Li Qing couldn't tell which house Zhang Xiao's was.

Chen Yong scratched his head sheepishly and said, "I don't remember either."

After Chen Yong finished speaking, he and Li Qing both looked at Hong Baobao. Now, they could only place their hopes on Hong Baobao, hoping that she could remember where Zhang Xiao's house was.

Hong Baobao said, "Let's go, I remember Zhang Xiao's family."

When Chen Yong and Li Qing heard Hong Baobao say that she remembered those words, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
