Chapter 5 Eat and drink to your heart's content
The ox cart swayed for a while before finally reaching Mingyang Town. It's a town, but it's not a modern town. At most, it only provides a place for the surrounding villagers to catch up and trade.
Because it's not a market day, the town isn't very lively. Li Jinshu helped Ye Shi get out of the carriage, took out four cents from the money bag and gave it to Li Youcai, and said: "Uncle, I'm afraid that my mother and I will have to take your car when we go back to the village in a while, if it's convenient for you, just wait for us here for a while?" ”
If you have money to make money, where will you be dissatisfied? He smiled and took the four coins handed over by Li Jinshu and replied, "No problem, anyway, no one will take the car today, I'll wait for you over there." ”
Li Youcai pointed to a clearing not far away, next to which was a forest, just for people to hide from the hot sun. There are also two ox carts parked in the clearing, which are supposed to belong to other villages.
Watching Li Youcai drive the ox cart over, Li Jinshu took Ye's hand and entered Mingyang Town.
Mingyang Town is not big, but there are shops that should be there. There are also two inns and a restaurant in the town, and although the place is not large, the food can at least fill people's stomachs. Li Jinshu's destination is a restaurant. It's a few minutes' walk from the entrance of the town.
"Xiaojin, why don't we go to the hospital first and find a doctor to check your pulse, otherwise my mother really can't rest assured." The daughter who was dying not long ago is now alive, and Ye can't feel at ease when he says anything.
However, Li Jinshu didn't want to waste money on medical treatment, after all, she really didn't have any problems now.
"Mother, I don't know my body yet. I was so hungry that I fainted. Let's go to the restaurant now for a bite to eat, and I'll be more energetic in a while. ”
Ye couldn't resist her, so he could only follow his daughter to the only restaurant in the town - Yuelai Restaurant. This Yuelai Restaurant looks much more exquisite than the other shops around it from the outside, but after Li Jinshu walked in, he found that it was not so high-end.
It was about time for lunch, so there weren't many customers in the restaurant. Xiao Er was bored, and when he saw a guest coming, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Two guest officers, please come in!" beckoning the guests to sit down, Xiao Er began to ask, "What do you two want to eat?" ”
Li Jinshu looked at the wooden signs hanging on the wall and guessed that the names of the dishes should be written on them. But Li Jinshu can't read, so she doesn't recognize what is written on it. Not to mention the Ye family.
But this didn't stump Li Jinshu. She retracted her gaze, thought for a moment and said, "Just have a meat dish and two vegetarian dishes, just pick the more popular ones in your store." Four more steamed buns. ”
"Okay, you two wait a minute!" Xiao Er smiled and retreated.
Li Jinshu picked up the teapot on the table and poured a glass of water for Ye's family, and poured himself another cup by the way. Just now, she weighed the money bag, estimated it according to the price of goods in Xia Guo, and determined that it should be no problem to eat a meal.
Ye had never come to a restaurant to eat, and the whole person looked a little nervous: "Xiaojin, is it enough to order such dishes?" ”
"Mother, it's no problem, even if the money is not enough, I can think of a way to solve it, you can eat it with confidence in a while!"
The dishes were served quickly, and the portions of each serving were quite sufficient. However, the mother and daughter often went hungry, and in a short time they ate all the food.
Finally full of food and drink, Li Jinshu walked to the counter to check out, three dishes plus four steamed buns, a total of forty-eight yuan. After paying for the meal, she counted the remaining copper plates, and there were still two pennies left in addition to the fare to be paid later.
When Li Jinshu went out, he met a vendor selling sugar gourds, so he used the last two pennies to buy a string of sugar gourds. The mother and daughter separately wiped out the sugar gourd, and then walked out of the town.
