CHAPTER XIV

When I got out of the carriage, it was already past noon, and my stomach was hungry. Everyone stretched their waists, and they didn't know whose stomach was "gurgling", and everyone laughed along.

My brother smiled at me and asked me in a small voice, "Are you hungry?" ”

I touched my stomach and it felt like it was sinking a little bit and I said, "Sort of." ”

There was a wine shop nearby, so Senior Sister Hua proposed to have a meal there. There's a lot more to do, so as for where to stay and what to buy for such a long time, I'll wait until later. I can't eat well, and I don't have the strength.

I thought it was fresh, and the store said, "What to eat?" The wooden sign behind him was full of all kinds of names. What "braised beef", "acacia soup", "tender beef" and so on. There are a lot of snacks, and there are only a few to fill your stomach.

A group of us didn't know what to eat, so we just ordered some and said we didn't want to drink. So they sat separately, each talking about his own thing, and put peanuts on the table.

Looking around, the decoration is also very ordinary, most of them are wooden strips, and you can see that there are two floors. It's just that the place leading to the second floor is sealed, so I guess I usually live on the second floor.

I was looking at it when I heard someone ask, "Is this 'acacia soup' 'red bean soup'?" I thought it was something. ”

The shopkeeper was a beautiful woman, and when she heard this, she replied with a smile, "Aren't red beans acacia beans?" It's not bad if this soup is called 'Acacia', right? ”

I felt strange when I heard this, and secretly asked my senior brother, "But the red beans of this acacia bean are not the red beans that are usually cooked?" Why is 'red bean soup' called 'acacia soup'? ”

"Because it's all red beans." Senior Sister Hua heard my words and said, "It doesn't really matter what kind of red bean it is, you just need to know that it's a red bean." ”

I didn't quite understand, so I turned my eyes to my brother again. The senior brother followed Sister Hua's words and explained to me, "Indeed, the red beans eaten cannot express the meaning of lovesickness. But as long as there is an azuki bean that means acacia, the azuki bean can be equated with acacia. When it means lovesickness, it doesn't matter what kind of red bean it is. ”

The shopkeeper heard the senior brother's answer, smiled and poured tea for us, and told us that her father-in-law, who is now busy with the cook, only knew that red beans meant lovesickness, but when she first expressed her heart, she gave us a bowl of red bean soup.

We laughed, "No wonder!" The chef who came over with the food smiled and scratched his head.

This lovesickness is not the other's lovesickness.

When I was young, I would fantasize about how happy they were: Will I be so happy in the future? Will you find someone who will keep an eye on you? If you can, it seems that it is not so important to walk the rivers and lakes to become a heroine.

His eyes turned to look at the senior brother beside him, and his heart ached.

We still have a lot of places to go, we still have a lot of things to do, and I still have a lot to say to you, brother. Do I have a chance to tell you? I can't find the answer.

The meals were fresh and very fresh. Senior Sister Hua ordered no more and no less dishes, and it was just right for our group to finish eating. According to the original plan, it was divided into several parts, first to calculate how much money it would cost, and then come back to Senior Sister Hua to get the money.

I don't worry about whether someone will lie about embezzling money, so it's good to trust each other.

There are many shops that sell fabrics, but most of them are not ordinary linen, but what kind of dignitaries and nobles, as well as silk used by wealthy merchants, and the real ordinary linen cloth, but there are very few, so you can only ask one by one.

Fortunately, this is not the first time that Sister Hua has purchased, nor is it the first time to purchase fabrics. I also skillfully found the store I had been to before, and discussed with others to buy linen, while I, Senior Brother and Senior Brother Wu could only look at Senior Sister Hua.

Senior Sister Hua skillfully greeted the guys in the store, "Are you okay?" "It's okay, is it still sackcloth this year?" "Well, how many more?" "I'll keep you with a big customer."

I looked at the various silk satins in the store, and the colors were also different, there were also green and yellow silk threads, and yellow silk threads were also yellow and white silk threads, and the most eye-catching was indeed the red wedding dress that had been made and hung in the store.

"This is the treasure of our town." The guy looked at me staring at the wedding dress and said, "That's the best silk we've got in the store, it's a pretty red, isn't it?" It's beautiful to make a wedding dress, isn't it? When you can get married in the future, you can come here to buy it, and I can give you a little silver. ”

"You don't have to think about it so much, she's still a child, right?" The senior brother smiled, "But it's really gorgeous." ”

"It's really a beautiful cloth." Senior Sister Hua also said, and went to talk about the fabric with her buddy.

Senior Brother Wu walked around the store idly, and from time to time he used the fabrics that he was secretly putting away, and he was beaten by the guys, and Senior Sister Hua also glared at him. My brother and I laughed at him, but he grabbed him and slapped him one by one.

When we left, Sister Hua told us that there was still less fabric in the store, and we had to go to other stores to look around to see if there were any fabrics in other places that could be filled.

Senior Brother Wu felt bored, and before he could say "I can ......" and the words came out, he was killed by Senior Sister Hua with a look, and hurriedly snorted, "I can help run errands, I can run fast." ”

I was actually about to ask the same question, and when I saw Senior Brother Wu being glared at by Senior Sister Hua, I didn't ask, I just thought it was a little funny.

The senior brother looked around, but he didn't know what to look at anymore, so he turned his head indefinitely and didn't know what to look at again, and he was about to disappear several times, and he turned around and warned me, "Follow me well, don't get lost." ”

Waiting to walk into a shop again, Senior Sister Hua went to discuss with the guys in the store again, Senior Brother Wu sat next to him and yawned, Senior Brother suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly asked, "Can I go out for a while?" ”

Although the senior brother is not very old, he is also the senior brother hand-picked by the head, and Senior Sister Hua didn't say anything, just frowned and said, "Come back early, don't go out for too long." ”

I was about to follow and say, 'I want to go too', but I was glared at by Senior Sister Hua, "You don't allow it, who knows if there are kidnappers around here?" What if you lose it? You are not allowed to go. ”

I cast my longing gaze on my brother, who patted me on the shoulder very unjustly, "Stay here." Then he ran away. I was left sitting beside Brother Wu dejectedly and listening to him, "It's okay, we can play rock-paper-scissors to pass the time." ”

I nodded, and Senior Brother Wu happily continued, "If I win, I'll give you a slap, and if you win, you'll give me a slap, okay?" ”

"You're big!" Senior Sister Hua slapped him on the head mercilessly, "Give me a good seat." ”

I secretly glanced at Senior Brother Wu twice, and sat here with him.

The senior brother never came back, and he didn't know where he went. I was in the middle of a broken thought, and I saw that my brother had returned. He seemed to be walking in a hurry, still panting, and carrying something in his hand.

"Senior brother, you're back!"

"Hmm." The senior brother handed me the things in his hand, and I was wondering what it was, when I opened it and saw that it was osmanthus cake.

"When I came here just now, I saw that osmanthus cakes were being sold over there, so I went to buy them."

It's just that before Senior Brother finished speaking, he and I were kicked out by Senior Sister Hua, because the fabric in the store is easy to get contaminated with the smell of food, and it is best not to eat in the store. We were pushed to the door by Senior Sister Hua and sat together.

There was a strange feeling, and then I looked at my brother, who blinked and handed over the osmanthus cake, "Do you want to eat?" ”

I took the osmanthus cake and took a bite. I like the delicate texture of osmanthus cake. The senior brother also took a piece and took a bite. The two of them sat on the ground and ate osmanthus cake, always feeling a little funny, and the last one looked at each other, and we laughed together.

In the store, Senior Brother Wu could still be heard saying, "Senior Sister Hua! You see that Yan'er's senior brother bought her osmanthus cake, and I want it too! I want to eat osmanthus cake too! ”

"Buy it yourself!"
