Chapter 148 Yearning
"Brother, who should pay for the room?"
After everyone from the Ministry of Rites and the guards who escorted Yan Jing and his group checked into the inn, Xu Laoer finally remembered this key issue.
After all, paying for accommodation is a matter of course.
Boss Xu blinked and said, "We don't have to pay anyway!"
"Oh, that's good!"
Xu Laoer breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong?"
When Boss Xu saw the expressions of his brothers, he immediately knew that something was wrong.
Xu Lao Er lowered his voice and said, "I just heard the Zhao family's steward tell his subordinates that the room rate should be calculated according to the inn in the capital."
"Brother, how much does it cost to stay in this inn in the capital for a day? Will it cost one or two taels of silver?"
"Should be, no need!"
Boss Xu thought for a moment, "The capital is just a city slightly larger than our county town, and the rent should be about the same as in the provincial capital. The third brother has been to the provincial capital, so he should know!"
"Brother, do you think it's possible for us to go to the capital?"
Xu Laoer suddenly wanted to go outside and take a look.
In the past, he had always stayed in Lingshui Village, occasionally going to the county town, and he didn't have any special thoughts. But now, as he interacted with more people, he began to yearn for the outside world.
"If you want our father to break your legs, then keep imagining it!"
Boss Xu kicked Second Xu and said, "Why did our father not recognize our grandfather? Have you forgotten it yet?"
"Also, if you dare to sneak out on your own, be careful that I won't recognize you as my brother!"
Boss Xu issued the warning without any ambiguity.
Xu Lao Er hurriedly said: "Brother, I'm just talking!"
"Don't even think about it!"
Boss Xu kicked him again. "Our family is doing so well now, and the third child is studying hard. He will definitely have a bright future. We must not be too ambitious!"
"You can't get fat in one bite if you can't get on the kang."
"In the future, if our family lives well, you can do whatever you want in the world, not to mention going to the capital."
"I'm afraid that by then, you'll be too lazy to move again!"
"impossible!"
Xu Lao Er glared, "If I can really go all over the sky in the future, I will definitely be willing to move!"
"Really? Do you want to sign a document and make a bet?"
Boss Xu raised his eyebrows and invited Boss Xu to make a bet.
Xu Laoer is just too lazy to think, not stupid.
As soon as he saw his elder brother like this, he knew that something bad was going to happen.
So, it is impossible to bet on it.
I would rather die than make this bet!
…
The two brothers returned to the restaurant from the inn and opened the backyard door. They saw that Old Man Xu, Yan Jing, and Zuo Qiu were already lying beside the table legs, fast asleep.
Xu Lao Er looked at Xu Lao Da and said, "Big brother, can you wake him up?"
"Why wake him up?"
Boss Xu rolled his eyes at his brother.
Three drunkards, even when they wake up they become idiots.
Finally, the two brothers worked together to carry Mr. Xu and the other two into the backyard room and carefully placed them side by side on the kang.
Old Master Xu, Yan Jing, and Zuo Qiu slept for most of the day. When they woke up, it was already dark.
“Boss, Boss!”
Seeing that it was getting late, Mr. Xu shuddered and quickly greeted Boss Xu.
Boss Xu waited for a moment before appearing in front of Old Master Xu. Seeing that Old Master Xu, Yan Jing, and Zuo Qiu were all awake, he immediately said with a smile, "Dad, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, you're all awake now!"
"Headache……"
Yan Jing touched his head and felt a headache.
Zuo Qiu was better off. He waved his hand and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's getting dark!"
"What?"
Hearing that it was getting dark, Zuo Qiu jumped down from the kang and said, "Oh no! Oh no! I've missed the opportunity! I've missed the opportunity!"
