Chapter 173: The Taste of Winter

Could it be that the shadow in the courtyard just now was morning dew? You can't! Obviously, the direction of the shadow is to enter the restaurant! As if thinking of something, Du Dongyan held her breath in her heart, her crescent-shaped nails pinched into the flesh, she took off a silk flower sandwiched in her hair and pinched it in the palm of her hand.

Chaolu is not like Du Dongyan who squatted on purpose, so naturally he didn't see her. The mood that should have become happy because of four hundred taels was not interesting because of Xu Du's gossip. For Li Yan, after the age of fifteen, she deliberately did not understand him, and later she never confronted him in order to avoid suspicion, and now to understand him, she can only get a few words from the mouths of the people of the land he has guarded.

"Sister, sugar gourd!" Chaoyang patted Chaolu's arm and pointed to the stall not far away that bought sugar gourds, and there was a crystal clear rock sugar gourd next to him, and he couldn't turn his eyes.

Chaolu looked at the plump hawthorn fruit in the hands of the stall owner was worn into a bunch, and there was a thick layer of sugar on it, only to feel that the mouth was full of relish, there were people around the stall one after another, it can be seen that the business is very good, she stopped the car and walked to the front of the stall, although the stall owner is old, but the ears and eyes are clear, seeing that Chaolu is a customer, immediately smiled and sold, "The girl wants a string, my sugar gourd is this one in Tianxiang Town!" He gave a thumbs up, "A big sugar is thick, and two pennies can buy a whole bunch of miles!" ”

"Yes!" Without waiting for Chaolu to say, Chaoyang began to answer, Chaolu directly handed him a purse, which contained more than a dozen copper plates, "Go pick it yourself." Chaoyang took the money, and naturally ran to the pole with joy.

The stall owner handed the newly made sugar gourd in his hand to Chaolu, "Girl, try it, this winter is indispensable for this taste!" ”

Chaolu thanked her, took it and took a bite, this bite down, her brows stretched, this sweet and sour, the taste is really good.

"The sugar gourd sold by the old man is really good, much better than what I have eaten before!" Chaolu chuckled and praised a few words, "No wonder I used to see people holding poles and shouting, but the old man has a fixed stall, and he does have the ability to do it inside!" ”

The old man was a little embarrassed by her praise, "If the girl likes it, if she likes it, if she likes it!" ”

At this time, Chaoyang hugged six in one go, and he couldn't take it down.

Chaolu deliberately kept a straight face, "Chaoyang don't be greedy, otherwise you won't be able to eat!" ”

"No, no!" Chaoyang originally wanted to wave his hand, but both hands were occupied, so he could only shake his head and tell Chaolu one by one, "Dad, Mother, Chaoyang, Brother Shunzi, Feng Feng, and Gu Yan!" ”

From, at least the number is not wrong, but ...... Chaolu stared at Chaoyang, "Why did Gu Yan count me in?" "This is my brother.

"You're already eating!" Chaoyang muttered dissatisfiedly, "I've seen it all!" ”

Chaolu: "......" She took out the hand behind her back, but she didn't expect his eyes to be quite sharp and couldn't be blindfolded. Thinking of this, Chaolu took another bite on the sugar gourd.

The old man wrapped the remaining five strings in Chaoyang's hands one by one, Chaoyang paid, and returned to the car with one hand and one hand biting the fart, Chaolu returned to the shop in a click sound, Chaoyang went to divide the sugar gourd, she returned to the side of the cabinet, planned the schedule of the shop, after Mrs. Zhao came in the morning, in addition to ordering a red dress, when the next person sent the size, he ordered a hundred sets of new clothes for the people in the house, although the number is large, but it is not cumbersome, because it is the designated embroidery sample, So these only need to be handed over to ordinary embroiderers to do, and they can definitely be made before the end of the year.

She wrote down a whole full planning sheet, and took it to explain it to the relevant people, as long as she could complete these tasks without delay, they could return when they were finished. This is Chaolu's habit, those guys know it in their hearts, and they won't have any rejection reactions, so after dividing it in this way, the efficiency is higher.

In the afternoon, Du Junyan came with Du Wanfeng as scheduled, if he didn't come, Chaolu was really afraid that Chaoyang would not finish sitting at the door. The little girl bit the sugar gourd given by Chaoyang, and her small mouth was also very sweet, and she didn't look like Du Junyan was depressed and dull at all. But remembering that he heard the conversation between the two of them, Chaolu's heart became even more sour, it is impossible for Feng Yu's death to visit Feng without being sad, but this child is too sensible, he only shares joy with others, but he does not easily show sadness in front of others.

"Have you finished eating such a big bunch?" Chaoyang and Yu Feng sat on the threshold together, looking at her mouthful full of sugar residue, Chaoyang blinked his eyes and asked her kindly.

Wan Feng looked at him with a pair of innocent eyes, thought about it, handed the sugar gourd to his mouth Raised a smile, and said crisply, "Brother Chaoyang also eats." ”

Chao Lu glanced at Du Junyan embarrassedly, and covered her face with a book, she really couldn't see this kind of thing like snatching food from a little girl's mouth. She pressed the cabinet, thinking that there was a string of sugar gourds that he had carefully locked in, and she had an even more headache, this Gu Yan's return date is uncertain, if this is kept unchecked, it will attract insects!

"Chaoyang, don't you still have a bunch?" Chaolu pointed to the cabinet.

"That's Gu Yan's!" Chaoyang said: "I can't eat it!" ”

"He doesn't care so much about you! Good children don't waste food! ”

"He'll be back!" Chaoyang bit his lip and didn't look at Chaolu, "It's not a waste." ”

"It's really ......" Chao Lu couldn't cry or laugh, he couldn't wait to drive people away when he was there, and he wanted to leave him a copy of everything when he wasn't there, I really don't know how this Gu Yan would feel if he knew. Chao Lu Na he can't help it, but this kid essence, she can't throw it away secretly, she can only have a headache by herself.

Chaolu was moving the abacus for a while, and Du Junyan had already closed the drawings over there, looking at Chaolu's rare and weak depressed appearance, he said: "If Miss Chaolu trusts, I can actually help the girl settle accounts or something." It should make up for the previous absence. ”

"Huh?" Chaolu was stunned for a moment, sat up straight, and cheered up, "If I even push out such a thing as settling accounts, then I will really be an idler." ”

"How could the girl be an idler." Du Junyan said this, but he still didn't mention the matter of helping Chaolu settle the account, and when Du Junyan said this, Chaolu cheered up and calculated the account well.

……

The sun was already in the west, although Song Wenyin was holding the book, his eyes were looking straight out, and the little boy on the side saw it and asked, "Sir, is there something wrong?" ”

Song Wenyin shook his head, changed the book in his other hand, but his eyes just caught a glimpse of a corner of dark yellow, he put the book down, sighed, and was about to stand up with his hands on his knees, and the little boy on the side hurriedly went up to help.

He took out the envelope and found the crumpled letter again, thought about it, but still didn't put them together, one to the left and the other to the right, and said to the scholar behind him: "Accompany the old man to go out." ”

The scholar looked at the sky outside, hesitated and tried to persuade, "Mr. Song, it's not early outside, if there is something, let's go every day." Otherwise, it would be freezing on this day, and he was really afraid that something would happen to him.

"It's because it's getting late."

Song Wenyin didn't say much, walked straight out, and ran into Chen Yuze, who said with concern: "Brother-in-law, where are you going, but be careful of your body!" ”
