Main Text Chapter 258 Trivial Tricks

As the man said, the business in the store seemed to be really bad. There was no customer in sight. The couple seemed to be the owners of the hotel.

The small hotel had two floors. In addition to the counter and kitchen, there were only three tables downstairs.

Miao Yi looked back and found that the woman called "Honghong" looked a bit like Lin Pingping, and they were about the same age. He couldn't help but ask, "Are you the boss?"

The man replied, "Yes, yes, it's a husband-and-wife store."

"Sir, it's spacious upstairs, please sit up there." Lin Pingping quickly interrupted, as if she was afraid that Miao Yi would ask more questions.

Miao Yi glanced at her, said nothing, nodded, and let her lead everyone up the wooden stairs to the second floor.

The second floor was obviously much more spacious, with six tables, enough for these people.

Miao Yi and his friends sat at the table by the window, and the others sat down.

"Dear guests, what would you like to eat?" The boss nodded and asked.

Miao Yi looked at Lin Pingping on the side, "You are familiar with it, please help us order it."

Lin Pingping immediately said to the couple: "Send up everything you can show in your store."

"Okay, okay, wait a moment." The boss said and went down quickly.

The boss's wife wanted to pour tea and water for everyone, Lin Pingping stood up and walked over, saying: "You go down and do it, I will help you." Turning back, she brought tea and water and worked on each table.

When she sat back next to Miao Yi, Miao Yi asked: "It seems that you are very familiar with the owner of this store?"

"Yes!" Lin Pingping hesitated.

Who knew that the sound of the couple talking downstairs made Lin Pingping's face flushed, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Why is your mother here again?" It was the voice of the boss.

The proprietress muttered, "Didn't she bring so many customers to us?"

"You don't know your mother yet. She did bring customers to us, but she came back to ask for it. We earned money from these customers. If we give it to her again, we've worked in vain."

"For the last time."

"You said it. You can tell your mother later. Honghong, I don't mean anything else. Our business is not good. Our life is not easy. The eldest daughter is also at the age of saving money to marry a wife. We have been supporting her for so many years, but she should also think about us..."

The couple downstairs muttered, thinking that their voices were low, but they didn't think about who was sitting upstairs. The distance between upstairs and downstairs was so close that everyone could hear it clearly.

Everyone upstairs looked at Lin Pingping, and saw that Lin Pingping's neck was red, biting her lips and lowering her head, feeling ashamed.

Miao Yi frowned and asked, "Is that your daughter downstairs?"

The downstairs had said so much, and Lin Pingping knew that she couldn't hide it anymore. He nodded awkwardly and said, "My Lord, it's my daughter and my son-in-law."

Everyone looked at each other. The mother and daughter looked about the same age, and the daughter even looked a little older. They didn't expect that she was Lin Pingping's daughter.

But in the cultivation world, this is nothing. After all, the aging speed of cultivators is much slower than that of normal people. It's understandable.

"I thought that there were not many customers in this restaurant when we entered the door, and the food was probably not very good. But someone said that he knew a small restaurant with good food and drinks and special features, so he brought us here on purpose." Luo Shuangfei was not merciful, and he said sarcastically: "So you are a family. I have a sharp eye and I have seen that you are not a good person. This time you are exposed, right?"

Looking back at Miao Yi, "Sir, you have seen clearly this time, right? It's not that I don't like her. Even her daughter and son-in-law don't like her." After saying that, he stood up, looked around at everyone, rolled up his sleeves, revealing his two white arms, "I don't think there is anything good to eat. Let's just smash this restaurant."

Tian Qingfeng and others were speechless. It was almost as if the cultivator was tired of living when he smashed the believers' hotel in the capital.

Lin Pingping had experienced how stupid Luo Shuangfei was. He was the one who dared to attack her directly in the hall of the Fairyland Chamber of Commerce. He didn't even take the Fairyland Chamber of Commerce seriously, so how could he take this small restaurant seriously?

She hurriedly stood up and begged Luo Shuangfei for mercy, "Mr. Luo, please spare me. They rely on this small shop to make a living. Please don't smash it. I just want to help my daughter's shop to bring some business. I have no other malicious intentions."

Looking back at Miao Yi, she was about to kneel down, "Sir, it's all my fault. Please have mercy and don't make things difficult for them."

Miao Yi held her arm, "It's not wrong to help your daughter's shop to bring business. It's human nature. What's the crime?"

"Hey! Talking is talking, why do you touch her?" Luo Shuangfei flashed over, pushed Lin Pingping away, opened Miao Yi's hand that was holding Lin Pingping's arm, stared at Miao Yi and questioned, "It's like this, you still protect her, tell me the truth, are you interested in her? I've known that you are interested in her for a long time, and now you dare to take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of her, the dagger is revealed!"

This news is too explosive. Tian Qingfeng and others looked at Miao Yi in surprise, wondering why we didn't see it? Could it be that Luo Shuangfei discovered something when he went down the mountain before?

Lin Pingping looked dazed, and looked at Miao Yi in surprise. He fell in love with me?

Miao Yi was angry, and slammed the table and stood up, "Get out! I can't afford to be your subordinate!"

"You want me to get out for her?" Luo Shuangfei widened his eyes, pointed at Lin Pingping, then pointed at himself, and was also angry. He stretched out his hand and said, "I don't want to serve you anymore, give me Zi'er back, and I'll leave after you give me back."

Miao Yi, who was furious, took off the beast bag from the hem of his clothes, threw it into Luo Shuangfei's hands, pointed back to the window, "Get out!"

He was fed up with this guy's unreasonable troubles. It didn't matter if he didn't want this kind of disobedient subordinate. Anyway, he couldn't control the sable himself, so he just gave it to him.

"Okay! You asked me to get out of here. I won't come back even if you beg me to come back." Luo Shuangfei turned away angrily and ran downstairs.

Everyone looked at Miao Yi with a look of astonishment on their faces, wondering if the Lord really fell in love with this charming woman. Otherwise, why would he even drive away Luo Shuangfei, who had always been conniving, for Lin Pingping?

Lin Pingping was also very embarrassed and at a loss as to what to do.

Unexpectedly, the sound of "dong dong" going upstairs sounded again. Everyone looked back and saw Luo Shuangfei running back again. With a calm look on his face, as if nothing had happened, he sat back in his seat and sat next to Miao Yi.

Everyone's jaws almost dropped to the floor, just like Huo Dacheng did just now. Why did it seem like what happened just now had nothing to do with him in the blink of an eye?

Not to mention others, Miao Yi's anger hadn't even had time to digest, and he looked in shock at Luo Shuangfei, who was sitting next to him and slowly drinking tea.

"Why are you back?" Miao Yi asked in a deep voice.

"Hey, you little kid." Luo Shuangfei held the tea cup in one hand and shook the beast bag in the other. He smiled at Miao Yi and said, "If I don't do this, how can you give me back the things?"

After speaking, he opened the hem of his clothes, tied the beast bag back to his waist, and drank the tea in his hand happily.

Miao Yi was speechless, was he fooled like this? He frowned and said, "Since I've returned the things to you, aren't you just free to get away? Why don't you leave!"

"Hey!" Luo Shuangfei sighed and put down his tea cup. He took Miao Yi's arms with both hands and pulled him to sit down again. He pushed a cup of tea in front of him and said, "Have a cup of tea to calm down the anger. What a big deal. As for making you so angry? Can I be wrong?"

Patting his chest, "I am a person of my word. Since you have returned the things to me, I will abide by my promise and go with you. So, you should have returned the things to me first." , otherwise I don’t trust you, now you see my credibility? Manly man, keep your word!”

After saying that, he nuzzled at Lin Pingping, and then said to Miao Yi: "Look at how miserable the casual cultivator is. In fact, I don't want to be a casual cultivator. Since you gave me the opportunity, I won't miss it."

Miao Yi was stunned. This is really an unexpected surprise. So you don’t have to worry about this guy escaping in the future?

Looking back at Lin Pingping who was staying at the window, Miao Yi pointed to the empty seat next to him, "Tell me, why doesn't your daughter and son-in-law want to see you?"

Lin Pingping walked slowly and sat down. He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Sir, I don't blame them. If I want to blame it, I blame myself. I brought them trouble. I often can't find anything to do and have no source of income. For food and drink, I can go to the mountains to find some game." I'll make do with it, but if I live in the capital, even if I live in a cave, I still have to pay money every month. There will always be expenses in other areas. If I have no choice but to do it, I will ask them and their husbands for their money. Life is also stressful, as you heard just now, and it will naturally annoy me over time.”

Miao Yi frowned and said, "Since you really can't live in the capital, why don't you leave?"

Lin Pingping said bitterly: "After all, there are more opportunities in the capital, but the opportunities are even slimmer outside the capital. I also hope that one day I can turn around and give them better living conditions. Besides, they are my only relatives, and I don't want to leave." It doesn’t matter if they bother me, sometimes it’s nice to just take a look at them from a distance.”

Tian Qingfeng, who was opposite him, muttered: "I heard before that in order to survive, casual cultivators in this city would often find a dual cultivator partner to have a child, and then raise them to be ordinary believers in the capital. When they can't find anything to do, When they are young, their children provide support, after all, their children can find things to do like ordinary people.”

Lin Pingping nodded and said: "It is true that many casual cultivators do this. There are also many casual cultivators who are able to establish themselves in the capital for a long time. In the end, they get the help of noble people. Once they turn over, they enjoy the blessings together with their children, which attracts many people. Few casual cultivators followed suit."

Everyone was sighing after hearing this, saying that he was a monk with magic power, but sometimes this casual cultivator was really inferior to ordinary people.

Miao Yi asked: "Then where is your dual cultivation partner?"

"Sir, although there are many casual cultivators in the capital doing this, I am not just like them who just find someone to make peace with and have children. I fled from Liuyunshahai, and my husband's family originally had a good reputation in Liuyunshahai. Prominent, later we encountered a powerful enemy, and my husband's family was massacred with blood. My husband was killed on the spot. It was an old slave who fought desperately that gave the young woman a chance to escape with her infant child into the sea of ​​drifting clouds and sand. "Lin Pingping looked back with a look of dismay.
