Chapter 499

The group of three people arrived at the town full of joy, but they didn't expect to encounter the strange weather in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was raining heavily from the town.

"It's really strange, it's still a sunny day in Gusu, but it's raining heavily in the town not far from Gusu." It's been a long time, and anything can happen, Qian Xishun said in surprise.

"My mother said, this is called local rain, don't worry, it will stop in a while."

Sure enough, when they had a cup of tea at the inn, the rain gradually became lighter, and when the sun finally came out under the clouds, everything was shining in the sun.

The air was filled with moisture, and at the same time there was a hint of sweetness, Doubao decisively ran to the street corner, he smelled the smell of peach blossom cake, he didn't eat it last time he came to Suzhou, and he went back with regret.

Qian Xishun and Jiang Jue are both adults, and they don't like sweet and greasy peach blossom cakes at all, so they have to stand on the street and wait for Doubao to be satisfied before leaving.

"Mother-in-law, have you been making peach blossom cake here?" Doubao wiped his mouth and stood up and shouted to the old woman who had always had her back to them.

Xu is old lady is ear, and the little second brother who is in charge of greeting guests on the side said with a smile, "No one can disturb her when she is doing things, and the flower mother-in-law has been making peach blossom cakes on this street for nearly 30 years, and many people in the capital are admiring her pastries here." ”

"Yes, I just heard that the peach blossom cake from the town is delicious, so I made a special trip here."

Behind him, Qian Xishun and Jiang Jue both blushed for Doubao, the little master didn't have to make a draft to lie, they obviously came to find the eldest lady of the Cai family, when did it become a journey of seeking taste?

"Little second brother, are you also a local from the town?"

"Yes, I'm Granny Hua's neighbor, and I've been helping her sell peach blossom cakes."

Doubao's eyes lit up, and he glanced at the two people standing behind him, and the two of them understood and each found a stool to sit down.

"Let's take a break here and not disturb your business, shall we?"

The little second brother was very good at talking, he shook his head and said, "It's okay, you can sit for as long as you want, I rarely have someone here like the little young master who sits down and eats enough before leaving, they all buy it back and eat it slowly." ”

The peach blossom cake was very expensive, Doubao ate a total of six yuan, and Jiang decided to pay the little second brother a tael of silver, even if they were sitting idle, several groups of people came to buy it one after another.

The little second brother was finally busy, and smiled apologetically at Doubao and the others, "I'm often like this here, always busy for a while." ”

He glanced into the house, and suddenly ran in quickly, pulled away the flower mother-in-law who was adding fire, and quickly stepped on the charcoal sparks that popped out.

"Mother-in-law, you go outside to cool off, I'll light the fire."

The three of them had to endure the hot sun, waiting for the little second brother to ask him some words.

Jiang Jue was afraid that Doubao would suffer from heat stroke, so he went to the paper umbrella shop and bought a green cloth umbrella for him to cover the top of his head.

"Tea, please!" Granny Hua's voice was very old, because her name was similar to the name of Aunt Hua, the cook in Doubao's family, he deliberately looked at her a few more times.

Doubao found that the old woman was not very willing to look at people, and kept her head down and did not collide with any of them.

"Mother-in-law, have you been living away from the town?" Doubao seized the opportunity and asked obediently.

"Yes."

"Mother-in-law, can I ask you something?"

Granny Hua raised her head, but in the end she didn't look at Doubao, she returned coldly, "What do you want to ask?" ”

"Twenty years ago, did anyone with the surname Cai come to live in the town?"

The mother-in-law sneered, "It's so big away from the town, how do I know?" ”

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to embarrass my mother-in-law, it's just that we came from other provinces to look for people, and we don't know each other well, and I heard that you have lived here for thirty years, so I thought you knew some local anecdotes."

When Granny Hua turned around to leave, Qian Xishun suddenly stood up and blocked her way, and he said, "Big sister, do you know a teacher surnamed Qian?" Thirty years ago, he once rescued a young lady surnamed Cai at a temple fair outside Gusu City. ”

Doubao looked at Qian Xishun in surprise, his bold remarks, did he recognize that the Hua mother-in-law in front of him was the eldest lady of the Cai family he was looking for?

Unexpectedly, Granny Hua was furious and shouted to the little second brother who was burning the fire in the house, "Where did you provoke the disciple?" Talk to me?"

Hehe, I didn't expect a mother-in-law who can make peach blossom cakes to be able to export chapters?

Qian Xishun chased after him, stopped Granny Hua's way and bowed deeply, "Under Qian Xishun, you are a timid and fearful poor scholar back then, I know that you have a relationship with the Cai family, but I am not sure if you are Miss Cai, Qian is deeply sorry for the injustice of the year, and has been tortured by the soul for many years, I'm sorry, please tell Miss Cai, I'm sorry for her." ”

Granny Hua suddenly grabbed the broom on the side and slapped it fiercely on Qian Xishun, "Get out, don't make trouble with me, I don't care who you are, I don't know you, get out of here." ”

The little second brother rushed out and hugged Granny Hua, he glanced at Qian Xishun, and said anxiously, "Go sit down, you recognize the wrong person, Granny Hua has no one and no daughter, and I don't know the person you said." ”

Qian Xishun stared blankly at the flower mother-in-law who was brought into the backyard.

Dou Bao walked over and tugged at his sleeve, and asked worriedly, "Money shopkeeper, are you sure she is the Cai family?" ”

Qian Xishun sighed heavily, "I'm sure she's the eldest lady of the Cai family, because... The hooligan who teased her back then just saw her beauty, the eldest lady's chin, there was a beauty mole, and the beauty mole of this flower mother-in-law was in the same position. ”

Soon, the little second brother ran out sweating profusely, and he said to the three of them, "Please leave, Granny Hua is angry, she doesn't want to see you." ”

Qian Xishun asked unrelentingly, "Little second brother, is Granny Hua really no one and no daughter?" ”

The second brother nodded, "She has never been married in her life, where did she come from?"

"Then little second brother, let me ask again, is Granny Hua's surname Cai?"

Seeing his persistent appearance, the second brother hesitated for a moment and said, "This uncle, Granny Hua's surname is Hua, not Cai, don't ask, let's go." ”

Doubao looked at the freshly baked peach blossom cake with regret, and pulled Qian Xishun away.

"Let's stay in town, what do you say?"

Qian Xishun couldn't ask for it, he was now very sure that Granny Hua was the eldest lady of the Cai family he was looking for, otherwise her reaction would not be so fierce.

If the eldest lady of the Cai family who he harmed has never married in his life, then he is really a sinner through the ages, just like Doubao said, if he doesn't untie the knot, he can't blind himself until he dies, and he must not go to another world with regrets.

The next day, Qian Xishun came to Granny Hua's stall again, and the strange thing was that they didn't come out.

There were a few customers who came to buy peach blossom cake at the door, and several people whispered, saying that they had never seen Granny Hua close her door, even if she was not feeling well, she would bake a pot of peach blossom cake, like today, it was really abnormal.
