Chapter 50: The Knife Noodles Boy
The closer you get to the noodle shop, the louder the shouting becomes:
"Come on, come and see, come and take a look, authentic knife noodles, authentic Lao Wang knife noodles ......"
Some people gathered at the door of the noodle restaurant, and there was still an empty seat, so Zhao Wanqing squeezed in, and turned around to confirm whether Jiang Chengyuan had followed.
Seeing Jiang Chengyuan standing behind her, Zhao Wanqing turned her head to watch the master of knife cutting noodles perform with confidence.
There is a large cauldron at the door of the noodle restaurant, which is steaming hot, and it is supposed to be a soup stock, and if you stand close, you can still smell the strong aroma of meat.
A young man with a white towel tied to his head and dressed like Song Xiaobao walked out, holding a ball of white noodles in his left hand and a kitchen knife in his right hand.
Looking at it this way, it is almost the same as the knife cutting noodles that Zhao Wanqing knows, it is nothing more than holding the knife and slashing it twice, seeing that the person is still turning the kitchen knife in his hand, it is obviously showing off his skills.
It's just that the knife noodle master stood still in front of the cauldron, and the next "sword light and sword shadow" turned out to be just a moment, and Zhao Wanqing just saw it clearly, and it was over......
During the whole process, I saw the master throw the dough into the air, then raised the knife in his right hand, and flew in the air a few times like a stick, and then the whole dough was dispersed into evenly sized noodles and transferred into the pot.
The people around him began to applaud: "Good! ”
Zhao Wanqing slowed down, and couldn't help but applaud: "Okay, good ......"
It's really nice to have a noodle and watch a juggle by the way.
The shouting boss hurriedly invited people in: "Come on, the guest officers are all inside, please try the authentic knife-cut noodles of our store......"
Zhao Wanqing was impressed by the skill of the knife cutting noodle master, and at this time she couldn't help but look at him more, and she didn't notice that all the passers-by at the door were moving towards the store, and they were accidentally hit by one of them, and they didn't stand firm under their feet, and staggered back two steps.
Fortunately, Jiang Chengyuan was standing behind her, and at this time, Jiang Chengyuan also reached out to help her shoulder, and raised his hand to block the other passers-by who rushed over.
"Thank you......" Zhao Wanqing took the opportunity to stand closer to Jiang Chengyuan's arms, feeling a sense of security in her heart.
Although she can go into battle to kill the enemy herself, this is still different from the feeling of being relied on, and that's what it is...... There is a difference between happiness and a girl's heart.
The two entered the noodle shop, and the last table near the door was empty, and the second child in the store served them free tea, and then spread his hands to collect the money.
Zhao Wanqing reached into her pocket and groped for the copper plate, and asked jokingly: "Why do I see that other places eat first and settle later, but you collect money here first?" ”
The other places she said are, of course, costume dramas that she often watches......
Xiao Er put the rag hanging on his hand on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's all right, then I'll give you a knife and cut the dough first......
Before the others left, Jiang Chengyuan had already raised his hand and gave a silver ingot: "No need to look for it." ”
Xiao Er's face originally had a constant service smile, but when he heard that he didn't need to look for money, his eyes immediately lit up, and his smile became more natural.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
As he spoke, he took off the rag and wiped the table again, and it was almost reflective, so he went to serve them noodles.
Zhao Wanqing's hand that reached into her pocket had actually grabbed a few copper plates, but at this time she had to silently take them back, in front of Jiang Chengyuan's silver ingots, her two copper plates were too unrecognizable.
Jiang Chengyuan seemed to be a little curious about her small movements, so he asked, "What's wrong?" ”
As soon as he asked, Zhao Wanqing's hand that was about to be taken out of her pocket stretched out again, and after a moment of silence, she took out five or six copper plates and put them on the table for Jiang Chengyuan to see.
"......That's it," Zhao Wanqing glanced at the copper plate slightly aggrieved, and then continued: "It's still the ...... that Vice General Gao funded me."
Jiang Chengyuan smiled and said, "You used to be disrespectful in the court and were fined for three years, but now you are indeed poor. ”
And this setting? Zhao Wanqing frowned tightly, silently put away the copper plate, and muttered in a low voice: "It's not 'some'...... It's penniless......"
Jiang Chengyuan kindly told her: "When you return to Beijing to receive the reward this time, the emperor will naturally restore your wealth, and maybe you can also increase the rank of official and reward gold, silver and jewelry." ”
Zhao Wanqing heard this, and couldn't help but say: "I haven't even walked on the road to Luoyang City yet, you promised me so much, I want to go early......
At this time, Xiao Er brought two bowls of hot knife-cut noodles, and the topic naturally ended.
Zhao Wanqing couldn't wait to bow her head and taste a mouthful of noodles, and found that the entrance was firm and smooth, the noodle soup was thick but not greasy, and the aroma was tangy, it was really a bowl of good noodles.
She took a bite and saw that Jiang Chengyuan hadn't moved his chopsticks yet, so she nodded and said, "It tastes good, you taste it." ”
Jiang Chengyuan retracted his gaze to look somewhere, and sure enough, he lowered his head and took a bite.
However, it is estimated that it is not enough to say "delicious" from his mouth, so he did not make a food review.
After eating quietly for a while, when the two were alone, it was basically Zhao Wanqing who took the initiative to start the topic, so once she indulged in food, the atmosphere between the two was only silent.
Finally Zhao Wanqing raised her head from the noodle bowl, she first glanced at Jiang Chengyuan, who was eating noodles elegantly, and it was rare to see him at this low-eyed angle, so Zhao Wanqing couldn't help but look at him seriously - the first beautiful man in this map.
He really didn't have any imperfections from his eyebrows to his lips, from the shape of his face to his skin, as if he had calculated the best results using human visual data......
Of course, the system may be set up like this, but when he sits in front of Zhao Wanqing, his chest will have normal ups and downs when breathing, he is a living person, and he is not controlled by the system and Zhao Wanqing, and his personality is not too good, but it is too real, so that Zhao Wanqing understands a little:
It's no wonder that some girls are addicted to love games and can't extricate themselves!
Zhao Wanqing stared at Jiang Chengyuan unabashedly, and then when Jiang Chengyuan looked up at him, he praised him very calmly: "You look so good......
Jiang Chengyuan lukewarmly spit out two words: "superficial." ”
"Uh."
Zhao Wanqing felt as if she had been hit in the back, she hurriedly lowered her head and supported her forehead, thinking, it turns out that her problem is here?
I like it just by looking at my face, but it's still too superficial!
But Jiang Chengyuan's occasional kindness to her also moved her very much, and even the way he spoke coldly, and the way he refused to be able to revive her girl's heart......
Does she ...... Is it mild masochism?
As soon as she associated her behavior with this term, Zhao Wanqing felt suddenly enlightened, yes, who would like a hot face to stick a cold ass? Who would take the initiative to kiss from the position of a girl? Who has managed to go on a first date as a girl?
Of course there is in modern society, but this is the ancient world, and she is afraid that she has lost all the reserve that a woman who has not left the cabinet, right?
Thinking of this, Zhao Wanqing silently opened her mouth and bit her lower lip, regretting it!
But it's useless to regret it, her image in Jiang Chengyuan's heart is probably a superficial level......
Zhao Wanqing looked away like a self-abandonment, which happened to be the place where the knife noodles were performed at the entrance of the noodle restaurant, at this time, the knife cutting noodle master, the white towel brother was standing there with a dough, his right hand was unconsciously playing with a flower knife, but his eyes kept looking in the direction of Zhao Wanqing.
Zhao Wanqing looked at him suspiciously for a moment, confirmed that he was looking at herself, and waved her hand at him inexplicably.
The little brother's expression was a little complicated, and suddenly his gaze moved from Zhao Wanqing's face to Jiang Chengyuan, and then quickly turned around to face the street, as if nothing had happened.
Zhao Wanqing reacted quickly and looked at Jiang Chengyuan, just as Jiang Chengyuan didn't pick up his slightly threatening cold eyes, although this look was fleeting, and he returned to his usual indifferent appearance, but Zhao Wanqing still understood that the little brother was "glared" at Jiang Chengyuan, and then turned around in fright.
Zhao Wanqing couldn't help laughing, and asked her corny question that was comparable to a famous saying: "Childe...... Do you love me? ”
It's just that she asked a different question this time.
Jiang Chengyuan's gaze swept over Zhao Wanqing's face and landed on the noodle bowl in front of her: "Have you finished eating?" ”
Another straight ball hit the copper wall and was bounced back, Zhao Wanqing pursed her lips and said, "It's not ...... yet."
After saying that, she lowered her head and took two more bites, because she saw the knife-cut noodle brother walking towards them in the afterglow, so she couldn't help but roll her eyes to look over.
At this time, the system prompted in her ear: "Please note that the current behavior may open the hidden plot in advance, resulting in confusion of game data, please terminate it in time." ”
Zhao Wanqing said in her heart: "Why is this sentence again?" Can I turn on No More Reminders? ”
System: "The current game data reception has been overloaded, if the hidden plot is opened in advance, the game world may collapse, and in order for the game to continue to run, NPC characters will be forced to unlock the autonomous consciousness ...... by default"
Zhao Wanqing said in her heart: "No wonder you keep reminding me...... Why didn't you say such a serious consequence earlier? ”
The system said a lot, Zhao Wanqing naturally defaulted to "serious consequences", and when the system continued to explain the problems of "data reception" and "timely repair", Zhao Wanqing asked again: "What is the forced unlocking of autonomous consciousness?" ”
System: "......"
In the time of systematically organizing the language, Zhao Wanqing, who was single-minded and dual-minded, was successfully choked by the noodle soup.
"Ahem...... It's so spicy......"
Zhao Wanqing still lowered her head, so she first reached out and fished it out on the table, wanting to find her own tea to drink and relieve it.
Unexpectedly, the knife-cut noodle brother who had already walked to the table suddenly rushed up, grabbed Zhao Wanqing's right hand, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Sir? Is it unappetizing? Too spicy? Are you choking? Can you still speak? ”
