Chapter 280 - Stove Beds

Bai Rouyun looked around her room and nodded her head approvingly. Although this was a smaller inn, the rooms truly lived up to being called luxurious.

The area was split up into three rooms, there was a washing room on its own, but the main room was parted with folding screens. At the back was a magnificent bed with a great wooden canopy above. Due to the colder weather, the bed had been taking inspiration from the more simple stove beds that were popularly used by the common people, mainly in the countryside.

The lower part of the bed was made from bricks, and there was a small stove in the middle that could be turned on by the guest, in case they wished to stay warm during the night.

On top of the brick bed was a thick and comfortable white mattress, and a wooden frame was built on top. The bed was long, and did resemble the stove bed, so the inn had even placed a Kang table by the side.

Bai Rouyun could not help but raise an eyebrow in approval. The hostess here truly managed to account for all possibilities, and it was easy to guess that these four luxury rooms were often rented by the same group, so they would gather in one room to discuss important matters.

As such, a kang table was indeed important. Bai Rouyun was very pleased, but she did not instantly move to the bed to try out how comfortable it was.

She had been traveling for too long, and she truly wished to clean up as soon as possible. Her clothes were dusty, and she felt weatherbeaten.

The washroom had all necessities that one could need. There was even a lavatory and a bathtub. Although the servants were still required to bring up clean water, the heating would be solved by formations.

Bai Rouyun nodded her head approvingly, and she quickly went to open the door, as she had heard the knocks that requested access.

Outside was a group of servants, and they quickly carried the water inside and calmly poured it into the bathtub. No water was spilled during the entire process, and while the tub they carried the water in was heavy, their actions were skilled as they had clearly done this action multiple times.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Bai Rouyun nodded to the group of servants, expressing her gratitude before she handed over a small tip. Although the tip was not high, it was not everyone who would be willing to give them extra for these chores that were considered part of their jobs, so they all felt happy when they noticed that each one of them had their own share.

"Please call us if you have any needs." The group of servants had a clear leader. It was a young woman who seemed to be only a few years older than Bai Rouyun, but the maturity she exuded was truly admirable, so one could easily forget her young age when interacting with her.

As they left, Bai Rouyun could not help but gaze at the closed door as she kept pondering. A flash of inspiration had rushed past, but it was so swift that she could not grasp the details. She only knew that this inn was not as unimportant as she had initially expected.

When Bai Rouyun asked Mo Chu to find an inn, she had not put out any requirements, other than they should aim for a smaller one, so they did not waste the rooms. However, she also required a certain degree of cleanliness, so he had picked this place right away.

Although it seemed very simple on the surface, Bai Rouyun already knew that the hostess was not as simple as she seemed. It was true that she did not emit any energy fluctuations, but there was clearly something hidden within, and this young woman that had led the group of servants was also hiding deeply.

As for why these two women decided to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger, she did not know. In fact, Bai Rouyun did not care much. Since this inn had been in Xiumeng City for so many years, she had no doubt that the City Lord was already aware of the situation here, and as long as she was not involved in any confrontation involving the City Lord, she was not too bothered.

After the water had reached the right temperature, Bai Rouyun slowly undressed and sank into the water. The water wrapped around her body and gave her a feeling of comfort.

Although she had been traveling in a carriage throughout the entire journey, it was not comfortable as she had been unable to stretch her limbs. The stiff muscles were slowly softening as the warm water kept warming her up, and a sigh of pleasure left her lips as she closed her eyes and leaned backward.

The steam that began to rise from the water contained the pleasant and sweet scent of magnolias.

The warm water managed to calm her mind so much that she almost fell asleep, but just before her consciousness vanished completely, she slowly prepared to dry her body and leave the washroom.

It did not take long for Bai Rouyun to put on a white dress, and she left her room to grab something to eat in the restaurant below.

As she came down, she found that both Mo Chu and Jiang Wei were waiting for her, smiling happily as they found her walking down the stairs.

"We are going to find a good restaurant in the city.. I heard that there are some renowned places that specialize in spiritual cuisine that are perfect for experts."
