Chapter 1094: Chapter 1095: Can’t Be So Greedy
So, it was just inappropriate to show affection in front of her.
Chiang Xiao led them toward the train station exit.
"Teacher, Teacher’s wife, I’ll first take you to find a guesthouse. It’s better to stay near the Art Academy, as the teacher will probably be soaking in the exhibition hall every day."
Chiang Xiao hailed a cab and let them get in, then continued, "So, later we’ll go eat together, and I’ll point out some places where the food is good, to prevent the teacher from getting so engrossed that he forgets about you!"
"Haha, there’s really a possibility of that happening!" Cheng Qiulian couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
Liu Guoying glared at Chiang Xiao again.
What does it mean to get engrossed?
There was a rather famous street near the Capital Art Academy. The street was lined with tasteful restaurants, bars, teahouses, as well as some craft shops and even, two or three small galleries.
It must be leveraging the fame of the Capital Art Academy; many people who felt they had an artistic flair hung around this area.
There were also a few snack bars that were quite famous.
Not far from this street was a guesthouse.
Moreover, the guesthouse had quite a few residents, it was clean, and the hostess was especially enthusiastic.
"Staying three days? Okay, we can give you a discount! Ninety for three days, usually it’s thirty-five per day."
"Ninety! This..." Liu Guoying exclaimed suddenly.
He thought a simple one would do, somewhere around fifteen to twenty per night was usual. Now it’s thirty a night! That’s almost a third of his salary in one day!
"Thank you, auntie!" Chiang Xiao immediately paid, took the keys, and dragged the teacher’s wife upstairs.
"Xiao Chiang!" Liu Guoying hesitated for a moment, then sighed helplessly.
He really couldn’t manage this student anymore, he truly couldn’t!
"It’s okay, big brother, your daughter just wants you to live more comfortably, right? She came here before, and she had me show her several rooms to see which had better light and warmer inside!" the hostess told him.
Liu Guoying froze for a moment, not expecting that Chiang Xiao had actually come to check beforehand.
He felt warmed inside, thanked her, and followed upstairs.
His wife had followed Chiang Xiao up quite quickly just now; if not for Chiang Xiao, she wouldn’t have been able to climb even one step. Now his wife’s health was getting better and better, and Liu Guoying knew it was all thanks to Chiang Xiao.
What they owed her was much more than this bit of kindness and the ninety yuan for the room.
"This room is really big," said Liu Guoying as he entered, while Cheng Qiulian excitedly turned to him and said, "Old Liu, come see, this sofa is so soft and cozy!"
Liu Guoying put down the bag in his hand, unzipped it, and took out two large bags, handing them to Chiang Xiao.
"Here, your teacher’s wife made these pumpkin seeds and sugar-coated walnuts herself."
Each of those bags weighed at least about three and a half kilograms.
Chiang Xiao took them, opened them, and saw the walnuts coated with a powdery white sugar. She popped a piece into her mouth; it was sweet at first, then the unique flavor of the walnut came through as she chewed.
"This is so delicious!" Chiang Xiao’s eyes lit up, and she continued to eat several more pieces.
"Your teacher’s wife shelled them one by one, and the seeds are also scooped out of pumpkins and dried for days before being roasted. If you ask me, that’s a lot of effort, why bother? A girl shouldn’t be so greedy." At that point, Liu Guoying sat down beside the sofa and couldn’t help but give it a few bounces.
Hmm, it was quite soft.
