The shopkeeper's stunned expression made Lan Zhi blush a little, although she was used to being calm on weekdays, but she felt very awkward to be stared at by a man with this kind of gaze.

Zhu Yun didn't speak, but she clearly felt Lan Zhi's discomfort. took a slight step forward, just blocking Lan Zhi behind him, and looked at the shopkeeper with an unkind look.

The shopkeeper was shocked, realizing that he had exceeded the rules, and he looked away in a panic, and his face instantly turned red from top to bottom.

"Ahem, do the two sisters have a favorite taste? The smaller ones can introduce you to some. The shopkeeper's eyes drifted to the side, awkwardly pulling the sweat towel around his neck.

"Pick the one that sells well in your store, wrap a little of the same, and go quickly." The bamboo rhyme is concise and to the point, and the tone is not good.

The shopkeeper didn't dare to look at Zhu Yun, nodded, quickly went to get the oil paper, and went to the wooden counter to decorate the snacks.

Lan Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest and looked at Zhu Yun gratefully.

Zhu Yun didn't care, and pulled Lan Zhi to sit down on the circle chair placed in the hall.

Lan Zhi slowed down, calmed down, and realized that she hadn't asked anything after coming in for a long time. Looking at the busy shopkeeper behind the counter, Lan Zhi accosted, "Your dim sum tastes good, I bought it once a few days ago, and everyone who has eaten it praises it." ”

"It's not a small boast, the dim sum in the small shop is made by the boss himself, and the deliciousness is famous. The shopkeeper admires his boss very much. can make dim sum like this, he can't admire it.

Lan Zhi nodded, she was also a person who was used to working on the stove. Needless to say, the craftsmanship is needless to say, but the owner of this shop pù also really thinks the dim sum made is good.

"Since it's so famous, it must be a good business, right?" Lan Zhi was puzzled, only this little two was busy in this store, and she and Zhu Yun had been in for a long time. I didn't see a second guest come in.

Hearing Lan Zhi ask, the shopkeeper paused. said with a wry smile, "Don't hide it from you, although the dim sum in the small shop tastes good, it can't stand the fact that it is newly opened." The original owner didn't know how to run the shop at all. This shop was almost mortgaged to the gambling house by him in his hands, but the current owner bought it with silver, and then began to run the shop carefully. ”

"Oh? Newly opened? Lan Zhi's eyes lit up, and she finally had a clue, "Presumably the current boss is also a kind-hearted person, otherwise he has such superb craftsmanship, why did he buy this shop?" Seriously, looking at the exterior of this shop, it must have been a long time since it was repaired, right? ”

The shopkeeper packed a wooden box. Walked out of the counter and gently placed the wooden box on the table next to Lan Zhi, "No, the boss is indeed a good person." I've always been working in this shop, and the previous boss couldn't pay me anymore, and it was Boss Yun who settled the arrears of wages for him. ”

"Cloud Boss? Is it the current boss? Lan Zhi touched the box containing the snacks, and leaned in to smell it. Through the wooden box, the fragrance of the snacks inside can be heard.

"Yes, Boss Yun is not very old. can be kind to people, and it has only been open for half a month. The neighbors around him are all complimenting him. When the shopkeeper talked about his current boss, he was full of admiration, and his waist was straightened, as if the person he was praised for was himself.

"I think the dim sum made by Boss Yun is more sweet and greasy, it must be a southerner? Came to Tai'an City to do business? Lan Zhi's nose is very sensitive, she had already noticed it when she ate chestnut cake that day, and today she smelled so many dim sum up close, she was even more sure that Boss Yun's craftsmanship was from the south.

The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and scratched his head, smiled stupidly, and returned to the counter to continue his work, "I'm not sure about this little one, I can't hear his accent, but his brothers and sisters have accents everywhere." ”

Sibling? Lan Zhi raised her eyebrows, "Oh? So Boss Yun's craftsmanship is ancestral? The brothers and sisters in the family should have good craftsmanship, right? ”

"I don't know about this little one, and the boss's brother and sister have only met twice, and they don't usually stay here." The shopkeeper shook his head, he didn't know much.

"Second brother is busy in the back again?" As he was talking, from the side door of the shop, a young woman dressed in white walked in, not very beautiful, but rather delicate. But what is special is that her voice is not as crisp as that of young girls, but it is low and hoarse, which makes people feel heavy and tasteful.

Zhu Yun, who had not moved, turned her eyes around, looked at the woman in white who walked in, and then returned to the state of ignoring it.

"Yo, Seventh Girl, are you here? The boss is in the backyard, you can just go there. The shopkeeper bowed to the woman in white and said enthusiastically.

The woman in white hummed lightly, and when she passed by Lan Zhi and Zhu Yun, she didn't even give a look, and walked over without squinting.

Waiting for the figure of the woman in white to disappear into the hall, the shopkeeper said with a smile, "Don't be surprised, this is the boss's seventh sister, and she is usually reluctant to make a sound." ”

Lan Zhi nodded, not caring.

Seeing that these two did not react with dissatisfaction, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and continued to decorate the snacks.

Lan Zhi turned her head slightly, looked at Zhu Yun and raised her eyebrows. Zhu Yun nodded lightly and didn't say anything.

After the dim sum was loaded, the shopkeeper personally sent Lan Zhi and the others out, beckoning the two to come back next time.

Lan Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, although she didn't ask anything valuable, she still knew a rough idea, and she didn't know anything when she asked when she went back.

After completing the task, the two returned home with a full load of snacks.

"Coming back?" In the early autumn, he commanded a few girls in the courtyard to beat the bedding that was drying outside, and when he saw the appearance of the two of them with large bags and small bags, he asked with a smile.

"Sister Early Autumn." Lan Zhi and Zhu Yun both bowed and nodded yes.

Chuqiu stepped forward and took some of the boxes in Lan Zhi's arms, "Miss just took a nap for a while, I just woke up at this time, and it's time for the two of you to come back, just send the snacks to see which one Miss likes." ”

When the three of them entered the hall and went upstairs, they saw that the carved door of Shu Jinhua's bedroom was wide open, and Shu Jinhua was half-leaning on the warm kang near the window outside, holding a cloth tiger embroidered with pink face and gold silk in his arms, and was eating tea. Hatsuyuki and Juqing are holding a dustpan and sewing clothes and socks on the other side.

"Bought so much? There are a lot of shops on Qisheng Street. Shu Jinhua's eyes were sharp, and when she saw the box full of three people in their arms in early autumn, her smiling eyes narrowed.

"It's really, after careful calculation, there are actually five dim sum shops on Qisheng Street." Lan Zhi placed the boxes on the kang table next to the warm kang, "What flavor does the young lady want to try, the slave has calculated, there are about thirty flavors of dim sum." ”

"So much?" Hatsuyuki, who was curious on the side, exclaimed, "I've never tasted so many kinds of dim sum." ”

Shu Jinhua smiled and said dotingly, "Look at your greedy cat, put down the needle and thread first, come and taste it, so much, how can I eat alone." ”

Chu Xue's eyes lit up, and she was not restrained, she threw down the needle and thread, and quickly rushed to the side of the kang, looking at the box in front of her and couldn't start, "Lan Zhi, come and tell me, which ones are usually eaten less, I am already hungry when I smell the taste." ”

Lan Zhi always had a smile on her face, but her attitude was still respectful, she hadn't been with Shu Jinhua for a long time, so she was not as open as the early autumn and early snow. Seeing that Chu Xue had already rushed to the side, she almost made the first move, but she still stood aside and waited for Shu Jinhua's instructions.

Shu Jinhua smiled and said, "Lan Zhi is about to say to Chu Xue, seeing that she is almost drooling." ”

After getting Shu Jin's order to paint, Lan Zhi stepped forward, but the first few delicate boxes she picked out let her put aside. Among the rest, she took out a box of peach cakes and opened them in front of Chu Xue, "Sister Chu Xue is biased towards sweets, this peach cake is sweet and soft, and it is okay to eat more, which is just right for Sister Chu Xue." ”

Chu Xue's eyes lit up, and she picked up a round and flat peach cake and put it in her mouth.

Everyone else also chose the snacks that suited them under Lan Zhi's recommendation, and after tasting them, they were full of praise.

Shu Jinhua deliberately asked Lan Zhi to pick out some to leave for the little maids who were not in the room, and the rest of those that were taken out by Lan Zhi early in the morning were ordered to be sent to her grandmother and others in early autumn.

Shu Jinhua only left some of her favorite chestnut cakes and sugar steamed cheese, and when she saw that the girls were happily eating the snacks they were given, her mood was inexplicably much better.

The afternoon tea ended happily, Shu Jinhua took a sip of tea, and motioned to Lan Zhi to talk about the harvest of this trip.

Lan Zhi sorted out her thoughts and explained in detail the situation in the Founder Pastry Shop that Shu Jinhua had specially advised.

When Lan Zhi talked about the seventh sister of the owner of the shop, Shu Jinhua's heart jumped, she loved to wear white, and her voice was low and hoarse, which was so similar to the man in black she was following. Shu Jinhua secretly thought, this seventh sister is very likely to be that person.

"And the slave found out that the woman was kung fu." Zhu Yun on the side interjected.

"Oh? Did you find out? Shu asked.

Zhu Yun nodded and said, "She didn't deliberately hide it, and she could tell from her steps and breathing that she was a practitioner." ”

After listening to Zhu Yun's words, Shu Jinhua was more affirmed. This square pastry shop is the hiding place of the gang, and presumably Muhagen or Ayan Moye, who have dealings with them, are in that shop.

Now that you know the other party's nest, all that remains is to fish out the leader of this gang, or figure out the purpose of the other party. Shu Jinhua was eager to try, and his heart gradually became hot. (To be continued)
