Enter the city

Shuang Zihua saw that it was already late in the afternoon. She hurriedly found an inn suitable for her current condition to reserve a room and eat before breastfeeding. She was long past the time to breastfeed him. It's good that he knows so he doesn't cry.

 Shuang Zihua walked for a short while and saw a sign for an inn not far away. She hurriedly walked all the way there and immediately talked with Xiao Er.

" Miss, do you want to eat or stay the night? " This Xiao Er did not intend to look down on the customer. His boss had long ordered that no matter who came here, everyone should be treated the same. This inn is always crowded with locals and people with money.

" Both staying the night and eating food. Can you help me find a nice room for me and my child? If it's a ground floor room, it doesn't matter. I'd like to bring the cart with me. My child's things are too many to carry up to the room above. " Shuang Zihua was afraid that her treasure box would be ransacked. So she hurriedly told Xiao Er first.

" Then please follow me in the cart to the side door. Merchants often stayed here, and they also liked to keep watch over their carriages and goods. My inn has several rooms in the back, " Xiao Er explained to Shuang Zihua. He looked and saw that this woman had probably never stayed anywhere before. So she asked him something strange like this.

 Shuang Zihua nodded his thanks to Xiao Er and followed him into the side door. She got a corner room close to the exit. Shuang Zihua also asked Xiao Er for the price of food and lodging.

" For the price of food, you have to look at what you order. If you order a few famous dishes and one bowl of rice, it will be around 400 ypae. As for the room here, it's only 200 ypae per night. " Xiao Er hurriedly answered the lady in front of him. He definitely didn't dare to overcharge. If his boss found out, he would probably be fired.

" Then I would like to order two famous dishes. One type of curry and one cup of rice. Can you please bring some hot water for me to take a shower with? " Shuang Zihua really wanted to take a shower.

" Yes, sir, please wait a moment. I will bring it to you after you finish eating. "

" Thank you very much. "

 After Xiao Er left Shuang Zihua turned her gaze to the medium sized room in front of her. This room was actually not bad, wider than her entire hut. Soon the food arrived. Shuang Zihua doesn't have any money. So she gave him one tael. And tell him that for tomorrow's food, you can use the remaining money. She will eat the same amount of breakfast as this meal. As for the change, she gave him as a reward.

 Xiao'er didn't expect that this guest who didn't seem to have much money would give him change in the first place. Yes, he is very greedy. But ordinary people had never given it to him before. He smiled and said he would take good care of her and the child during her stay.

 Shuang Zihua rested comfortably in the inn with his son. He looked happy to be staying in such a clean place. Shuang Zihua sat and thought about whether she should hire a horse-drawn carriage tomorrow or not. She felt sorry for her son, who must be exhausted with her. However, there was still a lot of money left over. But on the other hand, she was still afraid of strangers. What if she meets another bad person? What will she do?

 Shuang Zihua was thinking too much. By the time I could sleep it was already very late. She would rather wait until tomorrow to inquire with Xiao Er. She saw that he seemed quite an honest person. He shouldn't have tricked her into anything.

 The next morning, the same Xiao Er was bringing food to Shuang Zihua. She hurriedly asked him what she wanted to know.

" Brother, are there any reliable hired carriages in this city? My son and I are going to a border town together. "

" Oh, Mother, are you going on a long journey? There is a safety bureau in this city that I have often seen merchants employ. Would you like to ask about it first? "

" Um, then wait for me to finish eating first. I'll go out and ask for directions to the bodyguard office you said. "

" Yes, sir. I work in the inn all the time. Or you can wait while I come to collect the table. Then I will tell you the way again. "

" Thank you very much, brother. So now I won't bother you with your work. "

 Shuang Zihua smiled, thanking him for helping her in many ways this time. If the security bureau was really trustworthy, she would probably be better off hiring them to escort her and her child there. She didn't know how long she would have to travel before reaching the border city with the Xiongnu Clan.

 Not even half an hour The same old Xiao Er also knocked on the door and called for her to collect the food. He also gave her detailed directions to the Safety Bureau. Shuang Zihua thanked Xiao Er before sending him out of the room first. She had to pick up another dozen taels just in case before leaving. Because she was afraid that if the price of wages was so high that the ten taels she had would not be enough, she would be in trouble. She didn't want to open the box for outsiders to see for the safety of the mother and daughter.

 Shuang Zihua walked out of the inn through the side door with her cart. As for her son, he now sat comfortably at her breast. She tied him to her body before leaving the room. Knowing that he often likes to look at strange things.

 Shuang Zihua saw a clothing store that was not very large. And there were a few villagers walking in and out. She looked at her own clothes and her son's and sighed. She hurriedly pushed the cart to the front of the store and asked if she could park the cart inside before picking up clothes and changing them before leaving the store.

 The store employee took a long look at the face and manners of the woman in front of her who was wearing an old dress but the fabric looked good. She thought that she might get quite a bit of money from selling things to her. She immediately led Shuang Zihua and the little child into the side door of the store.

 Shuang Zihua inquired about the nearby fitting room, which she immediately saw as if there was a room below. The employee saw that she really didn't want to go inside the store, so she took Shuang Zihua and the cart to the nearby room that Shuang Zihua had asked about earlier.

" Sister, can I ask you to bring me and my son's sized clothes here to choose from? I'm considerate of the other customers, so I don't want to bring him in and get in the way of you. " Shuang Zihua found an excuse to stay away from her treasure cart.

" Yes, ma'am, wait for me here for a moment. But what kind of fabric do you want? I will bring them to make the right choice. "

" Give me and my son two or three outfits each that are soft and comfortable to wear. You don't have to worry about the price. I can pay for it. " Shuang Zihua was afraid that she would look down on her and her son and bring bad clothes, so he hurriedly told her to leave.
