Chapter 003: Buns (3)

The smell of dead bodies is special!

Some people say that it's about the same as a stinky fart, but it's a little more stinky than a stinky fart.

Some say, like rotten eggs.

Others say it's a disgusting, smelly smell of stinking dog poop mixed with rotting meat.

But what Xing Ruyi smelled was not a stench, but a cold breath.

She stood in the inn and watched the team of officials hurrying away, and the leading catcher reminded her of the former Chang Tai.

"Are there dead people in this town?"

Xing Ruyi turned around and looked into the young man's eyes.

The young man scratched his head, "It's normal for such a big town to die." ”

"So, someone is really dead?"

"I don't know if I'm dead or not. But a few months ago, someone did die. The dead are all that kind of drunkards, and they were found dead in the corners of the middle of the night. ”

Xing Ruyi sighed softly and pointed outside: "It's so late, is the bun shop still open?" ”

"There is still some time before closing, and there should still be steamed buns to sell. Madame is from outside, and she doesn't know what we're doing here. This Yingniang's bun shop is not open during the day, and it is only open at night. I'm going to go now, just in time. ”

The steamed bun shop, which is only open at night, sounds interesting.

Xing Ruyi pressed his stomach and found that his belly was soft, and if he listened carefully, he could hear a shallow grunt. She was really hungry, so she turned around and followed the scent in the direction of the bun shop.

Standing in front of the bun shop, my stomach rang very angrily. Xing Ruyi hurriedly covered his stomach with his hands, and stared at the small steamed buns that had just been baked on the cage drawer.

The bun was very white and chubby, with a small grin on top and wisps of white smoke coming out of the small mouth. Through the wisps of white smoke, she could smell the scent of tofu.

The seller of the buns was a young woman, who heard the sound and set her eyes on her stomach. Xing Ruyi smiled embarrassedly, turned around, pressed his stomach hard, and stomped his feet.

When she was at the inn just now, she gave all the money to the shopkeeper. Now, penniless, looking at the buns, I can't buy them. This feeling is really a bit depressing.

Gollum......

There was another bang, and it was louder than before. Xing Ruyi felt more and more embarrassed, so he had to press his stomach hard and move in the direction of the inn. She thought about whether the shopkeeper would give her some money if she asked the shopkeeper for some money back.

As soon as she took a small step, she heard a soft voice calling behind her.

"Girl."

Xing Ruyi turned around and saw the proprietress walking out of the bun shop. I don't know if it's because she's hungry and panicked, but when she looks at the boss's lady, she feels a little ghosted.

"But the girl wants to buy buns?"

A hand reached out to her, holding a basket of steamed buns in the palm of his hand.

Xing Ruyi shook his head and replied with some embarrassment: "I'm in a hurry to go out, I seem to have forgotten to bring silver." ”

"It's okay, the girl eats first, and the silver will be the same later. Besides, it's just a basket of steamed buns made of tofu, and it's not worth a few dollars. The hand was handed forward again: "Girl, go on, it's dark outside, girl can go into the store and sit down." ”

"Aren't you afraid that I will eat the buns and not pay?"

"Afraid! But no matter how Yingniang looked, she felt that the girl was not that kind of person. Not to mention the side, just the girl's dress, casually, you can resist Yingniang's entire bun shop. The girl only encountered temporary difficulties, not like someone who couldn't afford to eat these buns. ”

Xing Ruyi looked at himself. This time she went out, she had tried her best to choose a more inconspicuous outfit, but compared with the proprietress in front of her, she did not look like the kind of person who had no money.

It's rare to meet such a considerate and kind-hearted proprietor. Xing Ruyi no longer shirked, took the bun with one hand, pulled out the hosta on his head with the other hand, and handed it to the proprietress.

"Yingniang is kind-hearted, and Ruyi is full of gratitude, but this bun Ruyi can't be eaten in vain. This hairpin, although it is not a very precious thing, is very cherished by Ruyi himself. Arrive here at Yingniang first, and when my husband returns, Ruyi will exchange the money for the bun. ”

"It turned out to be a lady, and she was clumsy, and she actually regarded her as a girl who had not left the cabinet."

Yingniang said, bowing her head slightly, with an apologetic smile on her face. For the hairpin handed over by Xing Ruyi, he didn't shirk it, and accepted it directly. It's just that when she took the hairpin, Yingniang's expression was a little strange, and her eyes sank when she looked at Xing Ruyi.

At this time, Xing Ruyi's attention was all on the body of the steamed bun, and he didn't see Yingniang's expression at all. Yingniang returned to the bun shop with the hairpin of Xingruyi, and when she tucked the hairpin into the cuff, she turned a smiling face to another person.

"Miss Qing is here again? Do you want to buy buns today, or do you just buy some bun wrappers as usual? ”

As he spoke, a girl in a green shirt with a nice posture but a taut face walked out of the shadows.

Hearing Yingniang's question, she didn't raise her head, but only said one word: "Pi!" ”
