Chapter 410: Shopping

While Mira and Momiji were serving the masses in the mountain village, Charles and Diana left Artoria's house.

Perhaps because of the lazy sleep during the holidays, there are not many people on the streets of the residential areas early in the morning.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Diana noticed that Charles was looking at her with a strange look in her eyes today.

"How old are you?" asked Charles in a low voice, "I don't look like you're wearing makeup at all." ”

Diana turned her head to the side and looked at the sky whistling, pretending not to hear what Charles was saying.

"My grandson is in elementary school, right?" Charles continued, "How much is the pension a month?

"Do you believe me when I say that our square dance is the Pure Land of Bliss?" Diana said viciously as she reached out and pinched Charles's soft underbelly.

Charles nodded, "I do." ”

In his opinion, it is natural for the elderly to square dance with the songs they liked when they were younger.

Not long after, the two walked out of the residential area and came to the vicinity of the commercial area.

There are a number of breakfast shops, from the simplest brown bread with vegetable soup to noodle restaurants and a variety of specialty dishes, making it an early riser.

"Want to eat something?" Charles asked, pulling Diana's hand away from his underbelly.

"Pick a lot of people. Diana looked around to see which shops were doing thriving.

Then they walked into a dumpling shop.

There were a lot of customers in the store, and Charles waited for a while after they entered the store to get a place, which was given to them by other customers who saw their children.

Soon a demon girl waitress came over with the menu, "Are you two coming for the first time?"

Charles nodded, and then the waitress girl pointed to a row on the menu and said, "We have a 'I want all-you-can-eat menu' for new customers, three of each type of dumpling." ”

Charles thought for a moment and said, "Let's have a set of this, four of each." ”

The number of dumplings must be divided equally, otherwise he and Diana may fight because of the uneven distribution of dumplings.

There are many types of dumplings at this shop, in addition to dumplings such as lamb fennel, pork coriander, and chives, there are also dumplings with chicken shiitake mushrooms, fish filling, crayfish kernels, and even dumplings with lard residue mixed with sugar.

After eating enough dumplings and drinking enough noodle soup, Charles looked at the inscription on the wall that read, "This shop is authentic - Victoria", and thought to himself that his ancestors had worked hard in this regard.

After more than an hour, Diana's face darkened, "It's a loss!"

At this time, they came to the outside of the Mausoleum of Our Lady and Child, which is located in the north of Abyss City and on the south bank of Lake Neva, because today is Christmas, there are many demons who come here, and the outside of the cemetery is full of stalls selling snacks and souvenirs.

The smell of barbecue wafts in, and the owner of a stall is baking thin dough cakes, and then the proprietress circles the rotten meat, vegetables and various sauces according to the customer's request into the burrito.

At the stall next to the burrito stall, the owner mixes raisins and other items into a batter and deepens them into thin sweet pancakes on the spot. If the customer wants to eat something salty, the ingredients mixed in the batter are replaced with mashed potatoes.

Two steps further on, the next stall sells finished pies. There are also two types of pies, sweet and savoury, with fresh fruit and beetroot topped and mashed potatoes and mushrooms.

There are even more stalls selling cakes, biscuits, preserves, and Charles even found that Japanese sweets and sushi are sold.

When Charles and Diana walked near the cemetery gate, they both held a cup of hot honey water made with honey mixed with bay leaves, ginger and sage, and looked at the craft stalls with curiosity while burping.

"Do you want to buy something?" said the owner of a stall, beckoning to the two young guests, "we have a blank here, and my son can draw a set for you soon." ”

Charles carefully looked at the nesting dolls on the stall, and then nodded, "Let's each draw a set, we want the best!"

"Okay! I'll give you a 10% discount on the first business in the market!" The owner of the nesting doll stall smiled like the sun when he saw that there was business, and then he shouted to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy sitting there behind the stall with painting tools, "Bryulov, it's business!"

After carefully observing the appearance of Charles and Diana, Bryullov quickly drew a sample drawing with a pencil on a piece of paper.

Charles raised an eyebrow, this was the second time he had seen a pencil in his life. His mother used to have a set of pencils for sketching, and Mira had encouraged Charles several times to help her secretly take them out to play.

Pencils are not high-tech things, and Napoleon used pencils similar to those of modern times. It's just that pencils don't go well with parchment, which is why pencils on the east side are not popular.

The two guests were very satisfied with Bryullov's mockups, but it took a lot of time to finish a set of nesting dolls, so Charles and the boss agreed to come back later to pay for the goods. If they don't pick it up after five days, the boss will sell the two sets of matryoshka dolls as a general commodity.

In addition to matryoshka dolls, there are also a number of unique handicrafts, such as prints made of black, gold and red inlaid with green, gold and red and varnish, brightly colored enamelled porcelain, and headscarves embroidered with large flowers......

All the way down, Diana's hand chopped and chopped. Anyway, Mira's coming to the demon clan couldn't be hidden, so Diana simply chopped her hands frantically, preparing to add some decorations to the house.

Just as Diana had just bought a small vase in enamel and was leaving the stall, Charles reached out and placed his palm in front of her.

"What's the situation?" asked Diana, looking at a pair of delicate amber drop earrings that Charles was holding in the palm of his hand.

"It wasn't your birthday the other day, I was so busy that I forgot about it. "So make up the gifts." ”

"Thank you. Diana reached out and took the earrings, "But I won't be able to wear them in a few years." ”

Charles just smiled.

After killing through the handicraft stall, the two of them had a feeling of visiting domestic scenic spots in their previous lives.

At this time, the pedestrians on the road began to increase, and there were many people who came to the cemetery today to commemorate their ancestors, and most of them were the whole family, and many people also held picnic baskets, which looked like they were going to have a picnic by the way.

The sun had risen and it seemed to be a good day with no wind, so it was a good decision to have a picnic with the whole family.

The two walked into the cemetery, and most of the tourists in the cemetery were demons with horns on their heads, and there were a few people like Charles and Diana who had no horns on their heads.
