Chapter 27, Gossip
On the street, the pedestrians are bustling, children running, vegetable farmers carrying fresh vegetables on their backs, and adults and children performing on the streets, it is a lively scene.
Cheng Xinlan was in the middle of it, and her eyes became red because of the urgency.
She's "lively, the more lively, the better, it's time to add some firewood to the excitement." ”
Seeing Cheng Xinlan gritting her teeth and saying this resentfully, Ruyi beside her only felt a chill in her back, although the young lady would be rude on weekdays, but it was definitely not this expression today.
"Miss, what are you trying to do?"
"I don't want to do anything. I just want that woman to be discredited! ”
After Cheng Xinlan sneered a few times, she said thoughtfully: "Go and find me the children who run on the streets every day." ”
Although Ruyi doesn't know what her young lady wants to do, she must do what the young lady ordered.
So, she found more than a dozen children, the oldest of whom was about ten years old, and the youngest one was six or seven years old.
Looking at these children, Cheng Xinlan was very satisfied, and asked them with a smile: "Sister asks you, do you want to eat rock sugar gourd?" ”
"Yes! I want to eat! The children said in unison.
"As long as you do your sister a small favor, each of you can get a string of rock sugar gourds."
"Sister, you say, we will definitely help you!" The ten-year-old boy in the lead stepped forward.
"You all know how to recite ballads, right?"
"Of course!"
"That's going to be easy. Listen, my sister is now teaching you to memorize a ballad, and after you learn it, you just need to sing it on the street all the time. ”
"No problem! This is our forte! "A ten-year-old patted his chest!
In the fragrant building, all the private rooms were overcrowded, and in desperation, Zhou Yu and Qiao Wan'er had to find a slightly quieter and more remote desk in the hall downstairs, and the two sat down cross-legged.
The boss of Xiangmanlou knew Zhou Yu, and he immediately made a move as soon as he came.
"It's the general who came, so I'll go upstairs and find an empty seat."
Qiao Wan'er immediately replied to him: "No need, thank you for the kindness of the boss, I feel that eating here is more appetizing." ”
"This ......" the boss's face was a little embarrassed.
"Listen to Madame." Zhou Yu smiled at the boss.
Qiao Wan'er was already hungry, her mind was full of vegetables, and she asked anxiously, "Boss, what are the good dishes today?" ”
"Today, I just bought a freshly hunted roe deer in the store, as well as pheasants, mandarin fish, and some live prawns......
"Stop, stop, don't list, give me some! Serve eight dishes! ”
The boss's face was a little shocked, even Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, two big men, came to eat, and they had never ordered eight dishes...... This lady's appetite is really extraordinary......
"Listen to Madame." Zhou Yu looked at the boss, still smiling like that, but when he looked at Qiao Wan'er, his face was instantly doting.
Zhou Yu silently said to himself in his heart, it is a blessing to be able to eat well.
With Zhou Yu's VIP face, the dishes of the two were quickly served.
Stuffed roe meat, steamed mandarin fish, pheasant soup, braised prawns, lion's head......
The desk was full, and Zhou Yu ordered another pot of water and wine.
Qiao Wan'er picked up the chopsticks as quickly as she could, sandwiched a piece of each dish, and put a full bowl of it, and then she was satisfied with eating.
In the 21st century, she also wanted to heal herself through food, but after visiting all the top restaurants in the city, she still didn't have any appetite and couldn't eat anything.
Nowadays, what chicken, shrimp, fish and pigs, what tofu and vegetables, as long as they can be eaten, she Qiao Wan'er wants to eat them.
This is a normal person. Qiao Wan'er burst into tears while eating, and after passing through, whenever she ate, she felt extremely happy.
Zhou Yu was not in a hurry to eat. He lifted the jug and poured it into his glass, drinking it while admiring the appearance of the woman across from him, who seemed to have not eaten in hundreds of years.
"It's so delicious?" Zhou Yu reached out to wipe the bit of flesh foam off the corner of Qiao Wan'er's mouth.
Qiao Wan'er didn't have time to reply to his words, just bared her teeth and kept nodding.
"Then, while I haven't gone out these days, I'll take you out to eat a few more times."
"Huh? You're about to go on a campaign? Qiao Wan'er stopped, made a small calculation in her heart, and began to calculate the days.
At this time, it's time for Liu Xun to fight back, and it's time to go on the expedition.
Can...... But they had just come to church......
If there is a newlywed Yan'er, they have to separate, and this expedition does not know when the war will end.
The more Qiao Wan'er thought about it, the more sad she became.
But being sad doesn't affect her eating. Frustrated, she continued to pick up the chopsticks, picked up the fragrant meat, and sent it straight to her mouth.
She's going to pour her grief into food!
"Yes. Liu Xun's squad came back to the rescue. We have to meet him, and we can't wait for him to call. ”
"So, you're going to Xunyang?"
Qiao Wan'er remembered that she beat Liu Xun in Xunyang.
Zhou Yu put down the wine glass a little incredulously, stared at Qiao Wan'er and asked, "How did Madam know that Liu Xun was going to Xunyang?" I don't remember what I told my wife? ”
Oops, embarrassing. Qiao Wan'er pretended to be relaxed and replied: "I heard July say something, and I guess it was Jiu Ge who told her." ”
"That's not right. Since even Xunyang knows about July, then you must know that we are going to go on an expedition? Zhou Yu's face was still full of doubts.
"Anyway, I just knew, probably in July, and she just said it in front of me."
"Oh. By the way, ma'am, if you feel lonely after I go on the expedition, move to your sister's courtyard, and the two of you also have a companion and take care of each other. We will leave heavy troops to guard the General's Palace. ”
Qiao Wan'er breathed a sigh of relief. Finally skipped the topic. It seems that it is better to take a break from rhetoric in the future. lest there be another oolong, and there is no way to explain it to him.
The two of them ate for more than an hour. The people who ate in the hall all left, leaving Qiao Wan'er there touching her stomach while thinking about getting rid of the last two shrimps.
Zhou Yu really couldn't stand it anymore, so he asked cautiously: "Madam, if you eat like this, will you eat to support your stomach?" ”
"No, it won't. I have a big stomach. ”
Perhaps, it is the past few days that have been propped up......
After emptying the plates, Qiao Wan'er finally pulled Zhou Yu away satisfied.
The shopkeeper and the boss came to the desk where they had just eaten, and were stunned.
Actually, I finished eating it all......
This is, the heroine of the female middle school.
The two of them went out the door, and suddenly found someone pointing at them.
However, because of Zhou Yu's identity, he didn't dare to be too obvious.
But the two of them were aware of it.
As they walked, a group of children suddenly ran around them, singing some kind of ballad in their mouths.
After the two of them heard clearly, their faces were dark!
The children sang "Zhou Lang's belly can support the boat, Mrs. will meet a man by the lake, and the two of them are still laughing, laughing and laughing!" ”
No wonder! The people on the road stared at the two of them......
"Cheng Xinlan!" Zhou Yu and Qiao Wan'er shouted her name at the same time.
Qiao Wan'er is really depressed.
That woman actually did such a despicable thing.
I know that for a woman, the most important thing is to have a good reputation, and for a man, such a thing is simply a knife.
"That crazy woman......" Zhou Yu tightened Qiao Wan'er's hand to show her sincerity.
"Oh? Then how do I remember that the general said that she was a virtuous woman? ”
"I said that day because I knew you were eavesdropping, thinking, and angry with you......"
"Humph! But you gave her hope, and now you and I are discredited, see what you do this time! ”
Qiao Wan'er angrily broke free of Zhou Yu's hand and walked forward on her own.
