Chapter 46: Strange
"Bah, what kind of duck soup is this, it's a pit!"
Yichenzi just took a sip, and immediately spit it out, his brows furrowed tightly, and his expression seemed to have eaten something......
"Who's duck soup uses a female duck! It's a complete cheat! ā
Yi Chenzi drank several sips of tea in a row, with a gloomy look on his face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Jiao San took a sip slowly, tasted it carefully, and didn't find that Yi Chenzi said that it was unpleasant, on the contrary, the rich aroma of duck meat made him feel very delicious.
"Indeed, it's a little slippery."
Wei Yuan took a sip, although he didn't say that it was stewed with a female duck, but it was indeed a little different from what he had drunk before.
"You tongues are strange."
Jiao San muttered, poured another bowl and drank it in a big gulp.
Yi Chenzi glanced at Jiao San disdainfully: "If you want to reach my realm, you kid will have a lot of time, I don't see your lady can only drink something wrong."
"Alas, it's still fun with that kid before, I'm going to buy delicious food for the old man all over the city, I knew I would meet you this time, so I brought that kid with me."
Wei Yuan knew that Yi Chenzi was talking about Yun Feng, and suddenly remembered the smart and demonic Yun Qing: "They are still in Yangzhou now?"
This was the first time that Wei Yuan had asked about the news over there.
Yi Chenzi called the shopkeeper and ordered a few signature dishes: "Yes, all of them are waiting for you."
Wei Yuan heard the amazement in Yi Chenzi's tone, a smart person like him would not fail to understand why Wei Yuan had almost no news.
"I said that the things left by your master are really amazing, Yunqing's little girl has a lot of fame in Yangzhou Buyi Alley."
Jiao San heard the two of them talking in a fog, but he also heard that he was talking about someone Wei Yuan had known in Yangzhou before, but he had never heard Wei Yuan mention that there were people he knew in other places before.
"When the time comes, I'll go back to them." Wei Yuan paused and said, "I don't know if Yi Lao has a way to contact Bi Lao and them, I want to write a letter to Ah Xun and them." ā
Yi Chenzi's chin was raised high, and his nostrils were about to rise to the sky: "Although our five sects don't have the special means of the ancient family, it shouldn't be difficult to send a letter." ā
"Girl, if you have anything to send, I'll just go, or arrange for Wang Wu to go......"
Jiao San didn't understand how to make it mysterious just by sending a letter, and as soon as the words fell, he was glanced at by Yi Chenzi.
"Little girl, I said, why are you getting more and more stupid now that you have found these retinues?"
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Jiao San: "Do you think your girl is a fool?"
Jiao San shook his head inexplicably, and secretly glanced at Wei Yuan's face, not knowing how Yi Chenzi could ask such an abrupt question.
"Since it's not, then is she eating too much and insisting that she has to let me deliver the letter?"
Jiao San wanted to say something more, but Huan'er next to him hurriedly pulled his sleeve and signaled him not to say anything more.
"Alas, I said little girl, you should really take that guy from Yunfeng with you, that guy and his sister are not ordinary people......"
"When I came, there were no large and small businesses in Yangzhou, which one was not familiar to him, which one was whose home, and it was clear that the head was the way."
"Why didn't I meet such a smart boy first, you look at their brothers and sisters, they are simply dead set on you, where did you find such a good little guy......"
"In the bridge hole."
"Huh?"
was chattering incessantly, when he suddenly heard Wei Yuan's low voice, and raised his head for some unknown reasons.
"I found them in the bridge."
Wei Yuan came back to his senses and repeated with a smile, "As for finding the second Yun family brother and sister, Yi Lao, you don't have to think about it, because they are definitely geniuses. ā
Yi Chenzi's mouth never stopped after eating a meal, and said that there was too much oil in this dish for a while, and that the dish was too hot for a while, but the chopsticks didn't see him move less, but Wei Yuan didn't finish a small half bowl of rice.
When leaving, Yi Chenzi glared fiercely at the old duck soup store that was busy greeting customers, and shouted in a small voice: "Liar! ā
Wei Yuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Yi Lao, haven't you investigated who likes to come here to drink soup before you came?"
Seeing Yi Chenzi's unknown appearance, Wei Yuan pointed to the crowd of people: "You see, most of the people who come here are ordinary people, this old duck soup tastes good, and it only costs two pennies a bowl, and you can eat two bowls of rice with rice, and because there is a lot of oil and water, you can eat two bowls of rice." ā
"You also said before, the authentic duck soup is to be stewed with a male duck, it is best to stew the chicken soup under the pot for a few days, both the deliciousness of the duck and the taste of chicken soup, do you think the duck soup made according to this procedure can be cheaper than two pennies a bowl?"
Yi Chenzi, who had been carried away by the food before, reacted instantly, remembering Wei Yuan's calm expression at that time, and hummed a little embarrassedly: "Did you already know?"
"No, I just figured it out."
Wei Yuan shook his head and denied it, Yi Chenzi glanced at her sideways, and snorted twice: "You girl is so clever, who believes it." ā
"Forget it, let's go, old man, I'm not happy to eat today, I'm going to go to the market."
Jiao San looked at Wei Yuan and still followed with a smile, a little anxious, this old man didn't want to be a good person no matter how he looked at it.
The hair is messy, only fixed with a wooden hairpin, the clothes on the body are wide and large, I don't know where they were stolen, the straw sandals on the feet are of different colors, and I feel worn out and mended.
Jiao San's mind came to the image of Yi Chenzi holding straw sandals to make up, and the whole person couldn't help but shudder, that appearance was really terrifying.
Normal people who can make straw sandals a lot, and they can make two more pairs of sewing skills.
"In search of food."
Huan'er's voice suddenly sounded next to Jiao San, and Jiao San turned his head a little inexplicably. I don't seem to think there's anything wrong with it.
"This old gentleman should be a lover of food, and I haven't tasted it to my liking today. I was unhappy, so I wanted to go to the market to see if there was anything good to eat. ā
Huan'er explained Yi Chenzi's behavior of going to the market, but Jiao San always felt that it was not so simple, and this old man looked like such a simple person.
He said just now, although they are five......
Five doors.
Five Doors !!
Jiao San, who reacted suddenly, looked up at Yichenzi walking with straw sandals, and asked Huan'er in disbelief: "Did he just say that he was from the Five Gates?" ā
"yes."
Huan'er nodded a little inexplicably, not understanding why Jiao San was so excited.
Wumen's power in Jizhou is not strong, to be precise, because a few decades ago, a large number of wizards from the western Hu people entered Jizhou, destroying the inheritance of Wumen in Jizhou, so now the people in Jizhou do not feel too strong about Wumen, on the contrary, most of the people believe in the wizards from the Xiongnu.
"What are the people from Wumen doing here?"
Jiao San frowned, and quickly followed, occasionally hearing the conversation between Wei Yuan and Yi Chenzi in his ears, the more he listened, the more irritated he became, the two of them actually discussed the food seriously for an afternoon, and they usually didn't see Wei Yuan have anything to pick up, why does it seem to make sense now.
"I just like you little girl, just like me, you know how to eat! Although some people can eat, but he can't say why, that kind of person is the most boring......"
Wei Yuan listened to Yi Chenzi talk about some people, but his expression was obviously disgusted, obviously there was someone who was specifically referring to him.
"Girl, look, the color of the syrup used to make the candy man ......"
Wei Yuan was here to talk with Yichenzi, but Wang Wu woke up with a splitting headache just after a hangover.
Although Wang Wu has money now, he is still not used to being waited by others, and he basically doesn't bring any maids and maids around him, so no one can help him wash yesterday, and when he gets up today, his whole body is still filled with a smell of rotting grain.
"This wine is strong......"
Wang Wu rubbed his head and looked at the beams and pillars on the beams in a daze, his whole thinking was divergent.
He didn't realize that it was too late.
"It's over! My wood carving! ā
Wang Wu, who was slowly recovering his thoughts little by little, suddenly remembered that he was drunk yesterday, and the wood carving that he had planned to take away was completely forgotten in the Ren family, but now it is not good to take it deliberately, that practice is too obvious.
Wang Wu knocked his head a few times, and quickly got out of bed and called the young man to bring water to wash, his face was full of chagrin, drinking and making a mistake!
Wang Wu was worried here, but Ren Xingyi and Huang were looking forward to it.
"Brother Wang said yesterday, his girl is a bodhisattva, and there is nothing important to stay in Yuecheng during this time, as long as he goes back and carefully explains our Ting'er's situation, then Miss Wei will definitely sympathize with Ting'er's experience."
"But, that's all now, he probably won't be here today."
Huang glanced at the sun, which was a little westerly, and the expectation in his heart had fallen little by little, and his speech was not as bright as in the morning.
Ren Xingyi's face was full of joy with a smile, his eyes were deeply hidden with a little anxiety, and his eyes inadvertently crossed the window, but he saw the two small wood carvings.
"Oh, why did you forget to give the wood carving to Brother Wang!"
Ren Xingyi patted his head, as if he had thought of a reason, and explained in Huang's strange eyes that Wang Wu was very interested in his wood carving yesterday.
"He didn't bring the wood carving back, so he can't give it to Miss Wei, so it must be difficult to talk about our family."
The more Ren Xingyi spoke, the more he felt that what he said made sense, and he began to wander around the yard alone, thinking about how to make up for it.
"Why don't you send it to him?"
Huang Ai Ai's mention, Ren Xingyi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded violently: "That's right, Brother Wang gave us something yesterday, and we didn't return the gift......"
"Baby, you go and see what is in the box sent by Brother Wang yesterday, let's find something to send it, I remember that we still have a piece of cloth at home, it seems to be some kind of silk yarn......"
After Ren Xingyi mentioned this, the Huang family also remembered that the thing sent by Wang Wu yesterday had not yet seen what it was.
Ren Ting stood in the courtyard, looking at the anxious and busy appearance of the two, and the bridge of her nose was a little sour.
In this era, it is rare to have only one girl like her in the family, but she is still a minor illness, and there are almost no people like the Ren family who put all their thoughts on her.
She had thought about getting something to tinker with, but every time the thought came to her, she would get seriously ill and not get better for months.
Once she thought it was a coincidence, twice she was a little hesitant, and three times she didn't dare to change the Ren family, because the Ren family collapsed little by little in her serious illness.
"Dad, mother, don't be busy."
Ren Ting has seen too many people who call them brothers and sisters before, and when you mention it behind your back, you spit on the ground, for Wang Wu, she doesn't particularly believe in those rhetorical words.
"Think about it, Uncle Wang drank so much wine at our house yesterday, and the road was unstable, and now I'm afraid he hasn't woken up yet! Dad, you are so reckless and lose and run, maybe people don't see it, but it leaves the impression of impatience and unsteadiness on people. ā
Although Ren Ting didn't believe it, she couldn't directly puncture the couple's hope, after all, the two of them didn't do this for others.
Ren Xingyi, who was about to pack up his things, was stunned, and faintly felt that what Ren Ting said was very reasonable, but he was a little reluctant to let him just do it and wait.
"Daddy! Come and see. ā
Huang, who went to the house to get the box, never came out, and when Ren Xingyi was hesitating, he heard Huang's shout, so he had to go back to the house to have a look.
Ren Ting followed Ren Xingyi behind.
On the kang was the gift box given by Wang Wu yesterday, which had been opened by the Huang family at this time.
Twenty taels of snowflakes of silver, a small wooden box containing tea, and a foot of cloth specially used to make a fan.
"That's a lot of money."
Ren Xingyi was also stunned when he saw the twenty taels of silver, that is the money of four or five acres of land, one or two or five dollars of silver can buy a calf, and another five dollars can help you match everything.
"This, what can I do?"
Ren Xingyi stammered, and subconsciously looked at Ren Ting.
"This shouldn't be specially prepared for our family, it's a gift box that their merchants often prepare, and the things inside are fixed, so there's no problem."
"Since it's not specially prepared for us, let's take it, then Miss Wei likes wood carving, Dad, you can make a few more and send them over......"
Between the lightning and flint, Ren Ting seemed to suddenly think of something, and immediately changed her words halfway through the conversation: "Dad, did Uncle Wang say why you want to make that wood carving?" Is Miss Wei fond of wood carving? ā
That's not right, Ren Xingyi's level can only be regarded as average, but he can't be so worried about by a big shopkeeper, and he sent it to his own lady.
"No, I mean Miss Wei likes strange things."
