Reborn to raise a baby, Princess Heng has become stronger

Lu Chenxiao's brows turned cold, and the words he spoke were chilling and piercing.

"This is an inn. We came here first and you came later. We chose this location first. It's our kindness to give it up. It's our bottom line not to give it up."

The woman in red asked back aggressively, "What if I insist that you give way?"

Qian Laosi immediately rushed forward as if he had a backer, rolling up his sleeves and saying, "Our wife must sit here today, so you two must get out of here right now, or I will be rude to you."

Lu Chenxiao waved his hand without fear, "Come, let me see how rude you are!"

Qian Lao Si paused, feeling a bit stuck, when he heard Meng Yunshang speak faintly, "If I were you, I wouldn't choose to eat in such a cold wind."

The air fell silent.

The woman in red looked in the direction of Meng Yunshang's finger, only to see that the window was not closed tightly, and the biting cold wind was pouring in through the window...

Hiss, it’s cold to the bone.

"Idiot!" The woman in red cursed in the direction of Qian Laosi.

Qian Laosi's neck shrank, and he stammered, "I'm sorry, Madam. I was just thinking about the quiet here, and forgot that you can't stand the cold now."

The woman in red snorted and ordered the boss, "Go upstairs and eat in the room."

The eldest brother nodded and ran off to find the shopkeeper to book a room.

The woman in red followed him with her men.

Qian Laosi walked at the end and turned around to glare at Lu Chenxiao angrily.

The space near the window became quiet. Lu Chenxiao closed the window tightly, and Meng Yunshang took Huai'an to sit down.

I lowered my head and asked him, "Baby, do you feel cold?"

Huai'an shook his head and whispered in Meng Yunshang's ear, "I am a martial artist like my mother, so I am not afraid of the cold."

Meng Yunshang scratched his nose lightly, "My baby is so great."

"Of course," Huai'an raised his chin proudly.

That look was very strange.

Lu Chenxiao called the waiter and ordered a few hot dishes.

After the family of three had a simple meal, they prepared to go back to their room to rest.

But when they asked for a room upstairs, the shopkeeper looked embarrassed.

"I'm so sorry, sir. All the upper rooms in our inn have been reserved by the lady just now. Now there is only one ordinary guest room in our inn that has not been booked. If you don't mind..."

Lu Chenxiao frowned and was about to ask the shopkeeper if there were other inns in the town when Meng Yunshang had already spoken to the shopkeeper.

"Don't mind. We don't have much money to begin with. We originally wanted a room upstairs because it's cold so the kids can sleep better. But now there's no room upstairs, so give us the ordinary guest room. This way we can save some money."

Huai'an immediately understood and agreed, "Yes, if I save more money I can go to school earlier."

It’s the perfect image of a poor student who is unable to enroll in school on time due to his poor family financial situation.

The shopkeeper sighed after hearing this, "You... Well, how about this, you just pay half the room rate for the ordinary rooms."

The corners of Lu Chenxiao's mouth twitched slightly.

He never dreamed that there would come a day when he would be so poor that people would waive half of his rent.

Meng Yunshang was worried that he would be exposed, so she winked at him where the shopkeeper couldn't see.

At the same time, he pointed in a direction and asked him to look.

Lu Chenxiao looked over and found that the boss next to the woman in red was standing on the second floor staring at them.

So, the show has to go on.

"Thank you," Lu Chenxiao thanked the shopkeeper in a deep voice.

Meng Yunshang gave the shopkeeper a thumbs up and said, "You are such a good person."

Huai'an also looked up and said to the shopkeeper, "Grandpa shopkeeper, you will surely live a long life."

The shopkeeper, who was originally a little bit hurt, raised his head proudly after hearing this, "Well, you're welcome, this is what I should do."

When he asked the waiter to lead them to their room, he took out a piece of candy from the cabinet and handed it to Huai'an, "Eat it, good boy."

Huai'an thanked him politely, "Thank you, shopkeeper grandpa."

The shopkeeper waved his hand, "You're welcome."

The eldest brother returned to the room and reported to the woman in red, "Madam, that couple doesn't look like they come from a wealthy family."

"Ok?"

The eldest brother told the story that not only did they not dislike the ordinary rooms, but they cried poor and asked the shopkeeper to reduce the room rate.

"You even take advantage of half a tael of silver. This is not the behavior of a rich family in Beijing."

"And I checked. Apart from us, there is only one blue cloth carriage in the entire inn, and they don't have any maids or servants with them."

"So, it's really not them?"

The woman in red leaned lazily against the head of the bed, with the veil on her head taken off.

Revealing a well-maintained and delicate face.

If Lu Chenxiao and Meng Yunshang were present, they would be able to tell at a glance that this was an old acquaintance of theirs.

"I don't think so," the boss nodded firmly.

Qian Lao Si was completely confused. "Madam, what are you talking about, brother? Why can't I understand a word?"

The woman in red glanced at him with disdain, "Is your brain full of grass?"

Qian Laosi felt a little aggrieved, "I don't want this to happen, but my brain is really only capable of this much."

The boss rolled his eyes speechlessly and ignored him.

The woman in red also withdrew her gaze, and propped up her forehead with one hand in deep thought, "It's better to be safe than sorry. So we have to think of a way to try again."

The eldest brother bowed and said, "What instructions does Madam have?"

"Come here," the woman in red hooked her finger at him.

The boss immediately put his ear close.

After the woman in red whispered a few words in his ear, the boss immediately understood what she meant.

"Madam, rest assured, I will do my best to handle this matter properly."

The woman in red raised her fingers slightly, hooked them under his chin, and her eyes were so charming that they could draw silk threads out.

"Don't worry, Madam Shi Ben will definitely reward you well."

As the words fell, the slender white jade hand slowly slid across the boss's chin, Adam's apple, and then to the skin under the collar...

When Qian Laosi saw it, he came over eagerly and said, "Madam, I want one too."

The red-dressed woman glanced at him and ordered indifferently, "Go find out where Yuan Ji is and tell him. If you don't hurry up, I will die in front of him."

Qian Laosi had no choice but to stand up with his head down, "Okay, I'll go right away."

Standing in the ordinary room, Huai'an felt a little cramped.

From the time he was born till now, he had never seen such a small room.

It was even smaller and more dilapidated than the houses where the servants in the palace lived.

He twisted his hands together nervously, and his little face was full of confusion.

"Mom, do we have to sleep here tonight?"

Meng Yunshang squatted down and asked him, "Baby, don't you like it here?"

Huai'an nodded honestly, "The bed is too small. I'm afraid it won't be enough for our family of three."

Lu Chenxiao glanced around the room and replied, "You sleep with your mother, and I'll stay at the table for the night."

"This isn't good," Huai'an's eyes widened, his face looking a little conflicted.

"When you are out and about, it is common to just go with the flow. You can't just enjoy yourself all the time."

Huai'an pouted and defended, "I'm not greedy for enjoyment, I just feel sorry for my mother's suffering."

Meng Yunshang laughed, stroked the little guy's head, and comforted him softly, "Thank you, baby, for thinking about mother, but mother will not feel bitter as long as she can be with you."

"Baby, sleep next to mommy in a while. You will be fine with mommy by your side."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, mother."

With his mother's assurance, the little guy fell asleep quickly.

But Meng Yunshang still couldn't fall asleep.
