Chapter Forty-Eight: Humiliation
Zhou Kuiruo crossed the spring peach, took out the four treasures of the study from the cage behind him, and put them on the table, seeing that his eyes lit up in September and October, and he was amazed.
October didn't dare to touch them, but just stretched out his hand and moved his hand lightly over them, as if he could touch them in this way.
Chun Tao didn't pay much attention to the behavior of the two children, glanced at the four treasures of the study, and then looked at Zhou Kuiruo who was grinding ink, and asked softly: "This is... Is it for me to write? ”
"Or do you read what I wrote?"
That's definitely not the case! I'll read you to write, at my speed, I guess I will write until tomorrow! Zhou Kuiruo sharpened the ink and left the position.
What is better to write! When it was time to put pen to paper, Chun Tao didn't know what to write again.
Fish-flavored shredded pork, ground three fresh, cold salad shredded lotus root, eggplant pot, peanut sticky.
Chun Tao thought for a long time and wrote five dishes and handed them to Zhou Kuiruo.
"But... OK. Chun Tao looked up at him.
Zhou Kuiruo folded the paper and put it in his arms. "I don't think anyone will buy it today, after lunchtime, just pack up and go to Yonghe Building!"
This Yonghe Building is the largest restaurant in Yuyang County, and the business is very good. Chun Tao has never been in, and naturally she has not been in September and October, and when she heard that she was going to Yonghe Building, the two children were a little excited.
"Brother Zhou, can we go too? You're not going to leave us here, are you? October pouted and looked at Zhou Kuiruo with resentment.
Zhou Kuiruo still minded this matter a little, and smiled far-fetched, but after seeing October's appearance, the smile on his face became much more sincere. "I originally wanted to leave you, but you're so smart that it seems that I can only take you with me."
"Yay!" October jumped and cheered, and asked, "Then will we eat in it!" ”
"No, it won't." Before Zhou Kuiruo and Chun Tao could speak, they stopped their sister in September. "We're going home for dinner! If you don't go back to eat, beware of your mother picking your skin. ”
March Niang's name is a curse, and October is immediately gone. "Alright! Then we must not eat there. ”
Zhou Kuiruo smiled, no longer listened to the fairy tale of October, picked up his own cage, set up his own small table, set up his own small chair, and started his own business next to the spring peach seller.
At lunch time, it was still the man who ate noodles and brought people to patronize Chuntao's business, but there were fewer people today than yesterday. Chun Tao asked September to ask him what was going on while he was eating.
"Uncle, do you think today's rice balls are delicious or yesterday's rice balls are delicious?"
"It's all your rice balls, what difference can the taste be, your little girl wants to trick me!"
"Nope!" September is still too tender, and her intentions will be seen through in a word, but she is young, and men will not mind.
"Not yet, don't you just want to ask me why there are fewer people here today. Am I right? ”
September touched his head embarrassedly and smiled awkwardly. "Hmm!"
"Haha! Your rice balls are really delicious, generous and affordable, but they're too dry. Some brothers were too lazy to bring water, so they went to eat the others. The man who ate the noodles spoke loudly, and Chun Tao also heard it, and secretly remembered it in his heart.
"But I think it's just right, no one loses by eating a rice ball from your family and a bowl of noodles from Li Laosan." Li Laosan is the father of the second pillar.
Chun Tao beckoned to September and let her come to her side. After doing the business of this group of men, there was not much left to eat. Chun Tao divided the rest of the rice into five portions, filled a small half bowl of pickled cucumbers and meat floss, and cut a large bowl of cold skin.
"Go and call... Call the boss... Dine. Chun Tao set up the dishes and chopsticks, and asked October to call Erzhu's father, who also hadn't eaten, to come over.
"Good!" October jumped over and dragged Erzhu's father over. "Sister Chuntao, I called the boss over."
After October forced Erzhu's father to sit down, he also sat next to him obediently. Countrymen don't pay so much attention to it, so girls can also go to the dinner table.
"I'm so embarrassed, I'll just eat some."
After Zhou Kuiruo put away his things, he also sat down at the table. "Brother Li, don't shirk it, it's good to have a lot of appetite."
"That's right! My mother said that things are delicious when you rush to eat. ”
"Haha! But there are a lot of things today, and you may not have a chance to grab them, so it probably won't taste good. "Erzhu's father likes to tease October, and October also likes to talk to Erzhu's father, if the two of them don't say it, others think they are father and daughter!
"No! The things made by Sister Chun Tao are delicious even if you don't grab them. ”
Chun Tao brought the pea yellow to the table, and Zhou Kuiruo picked up the chopsticks and said, "Eat!" ”
Erzhu Dad sandwiched a piece of pickled cucumber and ate it with rice. "The last time I ate my brother and sister's cold skin, I knew that my brother and sister's craftsmanship was good, and today I ate this pickled cucumber to know that my brother and sister's craftsmanship can't be described as good at all. These pickles are all salty and bitter, and the saltiness of my brother and sister is just right, and this spicy taste is also very suitable, not too spicy, and has some appetizing effects. ”
Erzhu's father praised Chun Tao a little embarrassed, lowered his head and stuffed a large mouthful of rice into his mouth.
Zhou Kuiruo saw that Chun Tao didn't speak, and hung Erzhu's father there, so he had to speak by himself: "Brother Li, don't praise anymore, these are not her ideas, they all look from the book, she just made it." ”
"I see, it seems that this reading and literacy can not only gain fame, but also make delicious food!" Erzhu's father sighed with emotion, so he concentrated on eating and stopped talking.
After eating, they put the things at Erzhu's father's place temporarily, and the group set off to Yonghe Building.
In the summer, the weather is hot, and people who have had lunch go home early and no longer hang out. There are still guests in the Yonghe Building.
"Guest, do you want something to eat?" Xiao Er looked at the four people dressed up and asked a little hesitantly.
"I'd like to find your shopkeeper." Zhou Kuiruo still maintained a proper smile under Xiao Er's scrutinizing gaze.
As soon as he heard that the four of them were not here to eat, Xiao Er suddenly lost his patience. "Looking for our shopkeeper? Is there anything wrong with you? Nothing important, just go! Our shopkeeper is very busy. ”
Xiao Er's arrogant tone was very unpleasant, and even October, who was hiding behind Chun Tao, poked his head out and grimaced at him.
"We have something to discuss with your shopkeeper, not to make trouble."
"Discuss with our shopkeeper, what can you discuss with our shopkeeper?" Xiao Er looks like he is watching a good show, so Chun Tao can't stand it, let alone Zhou Kuiruo! Reached out and tugged at the corner of his coat, wanting to leave.
However, Zhou Kuiruo did not leave, and still maintained a smile on his face, but there were faint bruises on his forehead. "We want to talk to the shopkeeper about cooperation, and we're tired..."
Zhou Kuiruo was interrupted by Xiao Er before he finished speaking. "Cooperation? Ha ha! Laughing to death, who do you think you are! A hillbilly still wants to talk to us about cooperation with Yonghelou, go out, go out. Hurry up! ”
"You..."Zhou Kuiruo finally couldn't help it, "It's too much of a bully, let's go." ”
Chun Tao took October's hand and quickly followed the humiliated Zhou Kuruo.
"Phew! Why can everything enter Yonghe Building! Xiao Er spat on the ground.
When Chun Tao turned around to look back, Xiao Er was being taught a lesson by another person. "What are you doing! Did you get the wine upstairs? I know to be lazy all the time. ”
"Go right away, go right away, you are angry." Xiao Er bowed his body and kept apologizing.
"Dogs look down on people." Chun Tao looked at September in surprise, and September noticed Chun Tao's gaze, lowered his head, and raised it again after a while.
"I know it's wrong to scold, but it's not good for him, he said Brother Zhou, I'm scolding."
Chun Tao smiled slightly, looked at Zhou Kuiruo's angry back and said, "Dog eyes... Look at people low, everywhere, the most... And most importantly... It's you who you have to keep in mind... Hearts, let them... Good... Pretty. ”
"I know." Zhou Kuiruo understood that Chun Tao was comforting himself, took a deep breath and said, "Let's go to the next one!" ”
