Chapter 18: The future of the teenager is promising
Sheng Zhu was sitting in a grocery store dozens of meters away from the city gate, holding a pepper in his hand, and was asking the proprietress for a price.
"What? This one costs two cents?? ”
She couldn't help but exclaim.
The proprietress smiled: "That's not it, although this thing is not a rare thing, but it has a wide range of uses, it can be seasoned, cured, made spices, and can also be used for alchemy. ”
I see, that's reasonable.
She asked again: "What about chili peppers, this can be grown anywhere, and it won't be expensive, right?" ”
The proprietress was full of doubts: "Sister, what is a chili pepper?" ”
Sheng Zhu was dumbfounded. It's a dog, this dynasty won't be without chili peppers, how much less delicious!
She made a difficult analogy, "It's just like a finger, the tip slowly becomes sharper, and when you bite it, juice will come out, which is irritating, some people like this taste, and some people can't stand it and will vomit." Boss, you're well-informed, you must know this kind of thing, right? ”
The proprietress frowned and thought about it, but she didn't know what she thought, her face suddenly turned red, and she snorted angrily, "The sky is white, what are you talking about, sister, it's so shameless!" ”
Sheng Zhu: "......"
Only then did she realize that she had just accidentally described an incredible object, and was about to add an explanation, when the proprietress snatched the pepper from her hand and waved it away.
Sheng Zhu stood at the door of the grocery store, his face scornful.
It's that this proprietress is too dirty, anyway, she resolutely refuses to admit that she drove the car.
Looking at it from afar, he found that the bustle on the other side of the city gate had almost dispersed, so he hurriedly walked over there to meet Shen Yan and a few others.
Shen Yan was so anxious that he was sweating, the pomp of the Nine Emperor Princes just now was too big, he had always been cautious, and he didn't even raise his head, for fear of getting into trouble. Who knew that when he could look up, he found that his sister-in-law had disappeared out of thin air.
The three of them searched for several laps at the city gate, but they couldn't find anyone, so they had no choice but to ask the soldiers guarding the city gate.
The young soldier was calm and said, "I remember the woman you mentioned. Don't worry, little brother, people can't lose it, and the kidnapper also has eyes. ”
This... Shen Yan was speechless.
was thinking about whether to report to the official, when he saw Sheng Zhu coming out of a corner of the house, he was relieved and hurriedly greeted him.
"Sister-in-law, where have you been, are you alright?"
Sheng Zhu smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry just now, so it's convenient to go to a nearby store." ”
This is true, I drank a big bowl of boiled water at the embankment before, although the original owner's body was weak, but after all, he was young, and it didn't take long for him to feel impatient.
What kind of car of the Nine Emperor Princes refused to move for a long time, she really couldn't help it, so she secretly moved back, a few guards with knives were very alert, and immediately found out, her eyes swept over like knives, she had no choice but to hold her stomach and make an expression that she would pull them on the spot at any time, and this was the only way to slip out of the crowd safely.
In ancient times, there were no public toilets everywhere, she saw that the proprietress of the grocery store was kind, and she wanted to be a good talker, so she went in and borrowed a thatched house, and left directly after coming out, so she planned to buy something in the shop, which was regarded as repaying the proprietress for her "grace of urine".
Considering that money is tight, I picked a pepper that I thought was the cheapest, who knows...... The above scene happened, and En didn't report it, and he annoyed others and was kicked out.
Hey, driving a fake car can also overturn, sad.
Seeing that the hour was not early, several people did not delay any longer, rented a carriage, and hurried to Qingyun Town.
On the way, Sheng Zhu asked his mother-in-law again, and finally confirmed that there was really no such thing as chili pepper in this era, only pepper and mustard, which is what modern people call yellow mustard.
It's better than nothing, Sheng Zhu sighed in his heart.
Her favorite Mao Xuewang, chopped pepper fish head, boiled pork slices, spicy chicken...... Stop! I can't think about it anymore, I want to cry.
Hurried all the way, and finally entered Qingyun Town at noon. Zhu Da Niu's mother and brother were worried about their family, and they couldn't even take care of lunch, so they hurried back, Sheng Zhu and Shen Yan still had to sell recipes to make money, and the two families said goodbye at the intersection.
Sheng Zhu never liked to treat himself badly, so he spent eight cents to buy four meat buns and ate two with Shen Yan. Not to mention, the ancient people were sincere, a meat bun is as big as two modern times, and they are full-fed.
The owner of the steamed bun shop saw that they choked, and kindly gave a bowl of porridge for one person, although it was so rare that it could see the human figure, but the taste was quite fragrant.
Conscientious merchants!
After eating and drinking, the uncle and sister-in-law were ready to do big things, Shen Yan led Sheng Zhu all the way to the east, and after a while, he saw Qingyun Academy at the end of the street.
Qingyun Academy is backed by Xiaoqing Mountain, north and south of Luoxia Lake, from a distance, it looks like the green tiles and red walls of the lake quietly wandering, which has a unique charm.
The academy is in the courtyard style, forming an enclosed space, and the tall door plaque is inscribed with the four big characters of "Qingyun Academy" in golden yellow, shining in the sun.
The porter was a thin old man in his fifties, and when he saw Shen Yan, he asked with a smile, "Shen Gongzi has returned to school?" ”
Shen Yan is handsome, kind to others, and even more attentive to reading, which is deeply loved by the masters. It is said that this year's autumn is going to end, with his results, even if he can't get into the show, Tong Sheng must be a certainty, and the future of the teenager is promising.
Therefore, the old man was very polite to him.
Shen Yan said with a smile: "The family matter is not over, I'm afraid I will have to wait two more days before I can resume school." Can you please ask Uncle Chen to go in and help me shout Pang Tianci Pang Gongzi, and say that I have something important to look for him. ”
This is a gesture, Uncle Chen naturally will not brush his face, and go with a smile, and soon, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy ran out.
Sheng Zhu took a look, this Pang Gongzi is worthy of being the young owner of the restaurant, the oil and water are enough, not tall, and they have developed horizontally, although they are all responsible for the fat world, but she is fat, but Pang Gongzi is really stocky and heavy.
"Zimo, why did you come back, I want to kill you!"
Pang Tianci pounced excitedly and knocked Shen Yan to a stumbling ground.
Zimo is Shen Yan's character, the two live in the same dormitory, although they are not from the same class, but their relationship is very good. Pang Tianci is an outgoing character, love and hate clearly, he can't wait to follow the person he likes and wagging his tail behind each other, if he hates a person, he will stretch his feet and stumble when he passes by, saying that it sounds good is "itchy feet", and if it is ugly, it is "cheap feet".
Fortunately, he has a good father, Master Pang is very fond of these three generations of single seedlings, anyway, the Pang family has a restaurant, and also operates a cloth village and a rice shop, with a lot of money, and is not afraid of losing.
This time, Shen Yan took a few days off for his eldest brother to welcome his relatives, Pang Tianci was bored alone, and he lost money several times, and when he heard that Shen Yan was back, he immediately rushed up with his tail wagging his tail.
Shen Yan hurriedly pushed him away, tidied up his clothes, and said with a solemn face: "How many times have I said it, you and I are both men, pay attention to the distance, don't move your hands and feet!" ”
Pang Tianci didn't mind, and pulled him into the academy with a smile, "Let's go!" My dad sent me a donkey to roll today, you can taste it to see if it tastes, if it's delicious, next time I'll ask him to send another ten catties and eight catties. ”
Shen Yan pulled his paws away from his sleeve with all his might, "What's the hurry, I have something more delicious for you than donkey rolling, so you can roll on the ground comfortably after eating!" ”
