Chapter 193: Summer Drink (I)
The next day, Ah Yao went out, and when she opened the door, she saw the smiling face of the iceman with heavy makeup.
"Miss Conpoy. β
She had no choice but to show a smile, stepped out of her house, reached out to close the door and lock it, and asked, "Hello, may I ask what is the matter with you?"
The iceman didn't expect A-Yao to even invite her in and sit in, she locked the door directly, and her smile almost broke her face, "I walked from Xicheng to Dongcheng, my feet are tired, I thought that there was something good to discuss with you, and I came over, girl, don't you want to know what's going on?"
"I guessed a little, but I'm sorry, I can't invite you into the house, it's really inseparable from people on the foot shop, yesterday the proprietress sent someone to talk to me, so let's talk while walking?"
The iceman kept a smile and nodded, and secretly warned himself to be calm, that Xiucai said that after the matter was completed, she would give two taels of silver to seal the red, and she also received a deposit of one or two silver, how many wind and waves have not been seen, and she is afraid of a girl's troubles?
ββ¦β¦ Specifically, this Xiucai may not be able to go to high school in one fell swoop in the autumn and become the champion or Tanhua, if you agree to this family business, you will be a proper official wife! I don't know if you have heard of it, those rich and noble families like to catch their sons-in-law the most, if such a good show becomes the husband of someone else's family, you will regret it too late. β
Yao's house is very close to the storefront. Within a distance of two hundred steps, out of the alley, turn into the street of Dongchengxiang, and a few steps further is Sun Niang's foot shop. The iceman struggled to speak along the way, and the words popped out, a series of words without panting, without saying anything else, rushing to this lung capacity, A-Yao admired it, and she stopped before turning out of the street: "You change your breath and rest first, I understand what you mean." β
"What do you mean?" asked the Iceman.
"You're tired after saying so much, please moisten your throat with this money. Ah Yao took out a simple red envelope folded with red paper from her sleeve, and there were ten copper coins inside, and put it in the iceman's hand, "It's just this family business, I don't agree, please go back and tell Xiucai." β
The iceman asked, and at the same time weighed the money given by A-Yao, pursed his lips, and thought to himself that he was really stingy: "Why?
A-Yao said: "I still have a mother and a sister in my family, and don't say anything about my parents' orders, you didn't talk to my mother about family affairs, and directly found where I lived, which is unreasonable; β
She thought about it for a night, all the reasons are not as good as the reason of "she has a fiancΓ©", she is not from the capital, who knows whether she is married or not, with this "husband" as the threshold, there will never be an iceman to come to the door to say goodbye, and when the matter of Mochizuki bird's nest is over, she will leave to return to Nanxun, and people who have little contact will forget her cleanly in less than a month.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the iceman was no longer entangled, "Cheng, I'll go back and tell Xiucai." β
"Thank you. Ah Yao was relieved and took out another thing from her sleeve, this time it was a purse. She handed it to the iceman: "It's a long way from Dongcheng to Xicheng, so you might as well rent a carriage to travel on your behalf." β
The iceman put it in his sleeve, stretched out two fingers and poked into his purse to grope, and immediately smiled and said: "Well said, I wish the girl and your future husband to be white-headed, and the children and grandchildren will be around their knees, free of illness and pain......"
Ah Yao went back to her grandmother's foot shop to start the day's work.
At noon, the sun was scorching, and the street looked twisted and steaming.
There are not many pedestrians on the road, and which flag sign says "ice water", that store must be full of people.
"This ghost weather, it's so hot before the summer heat, how can people live?" Sun Niang fanned her two babies and was busy feeding tea. It was too hot, and there was no wind on the street, so even staying inside felt extremely hot.
Cold melon, pu fan, and mat mat are undoubtedly a three-piece set for summer escape.
But this is far from enough, even if you use lotus leaves as a hat, your throat will smoke when you come back from a walk outside.
"yes. The old diners responded kindly, "Boss, you see that there are many ice water signs hanging outside, and we are really tired of drinking black plum soup, so let's make a few new things to try?"
"Scallop, do you hear me?" said the proprietress herself.
A-Yao asked, "I heard it, I want to think about it...... Whatever you want to drink, I'll do it. β
Now it seems that the gate has been opened, and the diners have shouted:
"Ice, ice!"
"I want to drink something slightly bitter and sweet, preferably with some salt, no tea, and no licorice. β
"Me too! I want to drink sweet and sour, but I don't want black plum drinks. β
"I want to drink something sweet, not too sweet. β
"I want to drink sweet!
What kind of sin did she create, and took the initiative to ask them to order, and see what they ordered!
It's so angry!
Ah Yao huffed back to the kitchen, thinking about how to fulfill their strange requests for the ingredients in the kitchen.
Not long after she returned to the kitchen, a new customer came to the foot shop, with a pockmarked face, wearing an old green robe, and a book in her arms, half of which was exposed, looking like a reader.
He looked into the kitchen as soon as he entered, his eyes wandered the entire lobby, his eyes saw a certain location, frowned, and swaggered in.
Li Gang greeted him and brought him to the empty table: "The guest officer comes with me, there is still an empty table here." β
He pointed to the nearest table in the kitchen and said, "I'm not going over there!
Li Gang turned around his head, this guest was really strange, and then thought that he might want to join in the fun, and said, "If you don't mind sharing a table, I'll help you ask." β
"Anything goes. He waved his hand and told Li Gang to hurry up.
The old diners had no objection and put the two tables together to make room for him, and the man sat down unceremoniously, without thanking him, facing the kitchen, and took out his book as a fan.
What a weirdo.
Whatever.
They made eye contact, and then began to guess what kind of answer sheet A-Yao would hand over for their questions, which was really exciting.
"Hopefully it won't be too bad for me. β
"Haha, it's hard to say, what you order is bitter, and you have to be sweet, and you have to add salt, I originally thought of ice and snow licorice drink, you specially came to say no licorice, then maybe the rest will be...... I'll give you a guess, lotus leaf tea, lotus seed heart, dandelion, bitter gourd, notoginseng, coptis, ginseng tea, ......"
"Hey, don't don't, the more you talk about it, the more terrifying it becomes, but if it's ginseng tea, it seems to be good?"
"Wake up, it's not dark yet, I'm dreaming so early. β
They joked, and the scholar suddenly turned around and shouted, "You guys are arguing to death, can you be quiet!"
The atmosphere was suddenly eerily quiet.
Ah Yao calmed down to make a drink, scooped up the soup and blew off the hot air and was about to taste it, but she was so frightened by the roar that she drank it to the bone, burning her tongue and throat.
