Chapter 20: Nostalgia, the First Taste
Turning around quickly, when he looked at Xu, the expression on Yan Wanyi's face was mostly flattering. Pretending to see her mother Xu, she immediately jumped up and snuggled up to her side, and her small mouth was as sweet as if she had been smeared with honey.
"That? Mother, why did you get up so early today! Mother, I'm hungry and want to eat your dumplings again! Can you make it for me? She grabbed Xu's arm, pushing and shaking.
As usual, Xu Shi had already happily gone to the kitchen to cook rice balls, and she didn't know that she was blinded.
Xu glanced at the sleeves that were tightened by her, and did not move in the slightest, but angrily scolded her: "Don't return all night!" Yan Wanyi, are you really getting bolder? Go and get the penalty yourself!! ”
Hearing that she was going to receive the punishment, Yan Wanyi's flattering smile was immediately erased, and she was replaced with a deputy aggrieved look, "Mother, my stomach hurts, my stomach hurts, can you not punish me to kneel in the ancestral hall!" It's eerie and scary! ”
A trace of distress flashed in Xu's eyes, but thinking that she was doing more and more, her soft heart instantly became firm, "Don't think that if you say that, Mrs. Ben will open one eye and close one eye like the previous few times!" This time it is still Mama Guo who is taking care of you, you are so self-conscious! ”
"Huh? That old lady is very weird, Yi'er don't stay in the ancestral hall, mother! Yan Wanyi thought of the previous few times she saw the old woman, and she wanted to cry without tears.
It's not that she doesn't want to stay in the ancestral hall, but that the old grandmother's smile is very weird!!
Especially when it's dark, the atmosphere inside the ancestral hall!
Feeling her mother silently brushing away her hand that was gripping her clothes, Yan Wanyi's heart instantly fell to the bottom, and the strange feeling of the ancestral hall came to her heart, and even the cold wind around her felt extremely harsh.
The short three days passed quickly, and as Hikoto had expected, they arrived at the imperial city just in time for the eve of the Qiqiao Festival. At this point, King Xuan calculated the time very accurately.
Yu'er lifted the curtain of the carriage, poked her head out, and shouted loudly to Yan Qianqing in the carriage: "Miss, we have finally arrived in Yuncheng, and it is estimated that we will be able to return to the General's Mansion at noon tomorrow!"
"It's so lively outside, I've been walking for a few days in a row, do you want to go down and take a walk? It's stuffy, miss! ”
Hikoasa Kiyoshi could feel the temperature in the city, and it was already high before noon.
Outside, there was a lot of noise, shouting, greetings, and the sound of wheels...... You don't have to go out to see it to know that it won't work!
"Go and ask His Royal Highness King Xuan's opinion to see if you can stop and rest and go back later!" Suddenly came to this unknown world, Yan Qianqing didn't have time to take a look outside because of his body.
The weather outside is so good, and it is so lively, she is in a good mood today, and she can't wait to get off the carriage and go around!
Yu'er lowered the curtain and turned her head to look at Yan Qianqing in disbelief, "Miss, do you mean it really?" ”
Yan Qian glanced at her innocently, and his words were cold and cold, "It's not steamed, it's boiled." ”
Wow! She heard her right, right? Ever since her young lady came back from her disappearance, her temper had become particularly strange, her face didn't have much expression, and occasionally all she could catch was the cold light bursting out of her eyes.
Also, she used to talk to her young lady, and her young lady didn't pay much attention to her! If you agree, you will nod, and if you are not satisfied, you will simply ignore it. I actually had a conversation with her today!
Seeing Yu'er's stunned expression at the moment, the corners of Yan Qianqing's lips curled slightly, and if he didn't pay attention, he really couldn't see it.
With a sigh of relief, Yan Qianqing really ignored the rain directly and gorgeously this time, and reached out to open the curtain of the carriage, wanting to look at the lively area outside.
"It's okay not to ask His Royal Highness King Xuan's opinion! You just go and tell him, it's very lively here today, your young lady and I plan to go down and go around, he is willing to stay, whatever! ”
"Huh? Well, well! Yu'er will go to inform His Royal Highness King Xuan and see if he is willing to stay with Miss! "Yu'er only recovered from Yan Qianqing's changes in a long time, and she was naturally happy.
"Go now, go back! Don't keep me waiting. As he spoke, Yan Qianqing's attention was attracted by the rock sugar gourd carried by the vendors along the road.
The red, crystal clear little Linglong makes people burst out of saliva instantly, and the tip of the tongue is a little sore!
"Sakura-chan, don't cry, don't cry, your crying, my heart is sour!"
She was a three-year-old child that year, and she was "coaxed" out of the welfare home by her rich father with two strings of red rock sugar gourds!
Later, she learned the identity of her father, and also knew that her father was the great benefactor behind the welfare institute who had been supporting her.
I remember that the two strings of rock sugar gourds were thrown away by her after she took a bite, they were too sour!
The reason is that her father won't buy anything! That's still to coax her, the gourd skewer I bought for the first time.
"Uncle, how do you sell this sugar gourd? Is it sour or not? "Some things, when they are within reach, are worthless, just like the gourd strings that she threw away when she took a bite, and no one picked them up when they were dirty.
The vendor boss stopped, turned around, stared directly at Yan Qianqing's ruined face, and replied with a smile: "It's not very sour, a string of three pennies!" I don't know how many skewers do you want to buy, Miss? ”
Yan Qianqing hesitated for a few seconds, and then tunneled: "The people on these three carriages are one person and one string, you can watch it!"
When the vendor boss heard this, he was so happy that he couldn't stop talking, "Okay! ”
"Miss, this string of yours!"
Reaching out to take the rock sugar gourd handed over by the vendor owner, Yan Qianqing suddenly felt a little nostalgic for what her father bought for her! The taste was very sour, very sour.
When you take a bite, the familiar taste hits the palate, but it doesn't have the impulsive sourness that it had at the beginning.
Hikoshiaki pursed her lips lightly and smiled. If she had known that she would be so nostalgic for it today, she should have taken an extra bite in the first place.
"Miss, this rock sugar gourd is so sour that the rain is about to lose your teeth! The old man said it wasn't very sour! Yu'er ran over complaining, crying and laughing.
"What did His Royal Highness King Xuan say?" Hikoto looked at her and asked.
"Hmmm! His Royal Highness King Xuan agreed, saying that it was still early, and he would go back after playing! Yu'er said excitedly.
"It's all so big, and I still eat rock sugar gourds! It seems that General Yan has spoiled you a lot! "Those who can say this to Yan Qianqing are the only ones here, His Royal Highness King Xuan!
Yan Qianqing smiled contentedly, and looked at it, the purple-black robe made him look mature and steady. The corners of the lips are slightly raised, slightly green. Between the eyebrows, there is an innate atmosphere that makes people stay away.
"My son can't get used to eating this kind of thing, if you like it, take it." The tone was tepid, and I couldn't hear half a point of disgust. Nan Xueyi actually gave the string of rock sugar gourds in her hand to the little maid who picked it up next to her.
