Half-awake and floating Chapter 39 October Dynasty, two bowls of noodles

His state of thinking was quickly interrupted because he heard Ye Sangyu's voice.

Looking up, I saw Ye Sangyu and the proprietress talking at the counter, smiling, and the relationship seemed to be very good.

There seemed to be a fire flickering outside the inn, and Li Mengzhou found that the shopkeeper was also tidying up the stove in the lobby.

Standing in the lobby and looking out, the field of vision instantly became colorful, and there happened to be a beam of fireworks in the sky above the deep alley, and the fireworks were like thousands of trees and flowers blown away by the east wind, falling like rain.

There were many people in Ninglu City setting off fireworks, and the whole city seemed to be covered in brilliant colors and firelight.

Li Mengzhou was puzzled.

But I heard the voice of the proprietress coming: "Tomorrow is the October Dynasty, it is also the Ghost Festival, it is the day of ancestor worship, in addition to the customs and habits, the residents of the city will also be lively." This means that every day is getting colder and colder, so it is necessary to send winter clothes to the deceased for the winter, and the living should also have some symbolic activities to hope for smooth heating when the weather is cold, and it is auspicious. ”

The October Dynasty is a traditional festival, on which women take out their cotton clothes and let their children and husbands change seasons.

If the weather is still warm at this time and it is not suitable to wear cotton, you should also urge your children and husband to try it on and be auspicious.

Men used to tidy up stoves and chimneys on this day. After installation, try to light a fire to ensure smooth heating in cold weather.

In addition to general offerings such as food, incense, candles, and paper money, there is also an indispensable offering - the garment.

During the sacrifice, people burned the clothes to their ancestors, which was called 'sending winter clothes'.

Li Mengzhou knew about this festival, but he didn't realize that it was tomorrow.

Ancestor worship......

Li Mengzhou sighed slightly, and his mood was suddenly a little not too high, although he had always been very indifferent, and he had never been high.

Ye Sangyu was inevitably a little homesick at this moment, and glanced at Li Mengzhou, feeling sympathetic.

Although she didn't know all about Li Mengzhou, she heard from Li Mengzhou that he was an orphan, compared to it, Ye Sangyu felt that she was too happy, she shouldn't be so willful, she ran away from home without saying hello, how worried the family should be.

The proprietress should have been about the same age as Ye Sangyu's mother, but holding Ye Sangyu's little hand at this moment gave her a little warmth.

Although the proprietress didn't know what Ye Sangyu was thinking, she didn't hold her hand because of this.

Li Mengzhou felt that something was not right, why did he see the cunning meaning in the eyes of the proprietress in the eyes, as if he was deliberately taking advantage of Ye Sangyu......

Two women?

He seemed to understand something, but he didn't quite understand it.

The meal was ready, and there were no guests in this inn, so the proprietress ate at the same table with Li Mengzhou, and the shopkeeper was alone.

Li Mengzhou faintly remembered something and said, "Did you have another guest just now, why didn't you ask him to come down and eat together?"

The proprietress said: "That person is quite strange, when he stayed in the hotel, he said that no one could disturb him, and he should not be called for dinner, I don't know what the hell he is doing." ”

Li Mengzhou frowned slightly, and didn't say anything more.

Of course, the food on the table was not a delicacy, there was a plate of peanuts, a plate of fennel beans, and a plate of roasted eggplant, all vegetarian, and the only meat was the braised fish, but it didn't seem to look very good.

But Li Mengzhou thought that since he was opening an inn, it shouldn't be too unpalatable, so he picked up a piece of fish meat with chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

Then his face turned blue.

Originally, it was a black face, but after it turned blue, it looked ...... Indescribable.

His whole face was wrinkled, he looked at the proprietress opposite, swallowed the fish with difficulty, and said, "How much salt did you put in it?"

The proprietress asked a little apprehensively, "Is it salty?"

Li Mengzhou said with a dark face: "Please remove the word." ”

The proprietress sighed and said casually: "Then let's eat it as salted fish." ”

Although the braised fish is not good, and the roasted eggplant is not good, but fortunately, peanuts and fennel beans can be eaten, but this obviously cannot fill the stomach, and Li Mengzhou is very uncomfortable.

The proprietress seemed to only target peanuts and fennel beans, and in order to ensure that this was the only food that could be eaten, Li Mengzhou decisively grabbed it.

Therefore, this dinner was quite lively.

Ye Sangyu basically didn't eat much, although she was delicious, but it didn't include unpalatable food, so she was also in pain.

When I returned to my room, I was tossing and turning on the bed with my stomach clutched.

Li Mengzhou could only take out the remaining dim sum and let Ye Sangyu take it.

Ye Sangyu lay on the bed, eating snacks while looking at Li Mengzhou, who was standing in front of the window and didn't know what he was thinking, and said, "Do you think there will be snow geese in the capital?"

Li Mengzhou had never been to the capital, but he still thought about it for a while and said, "Although snow goose flowers are rare, there should be everything in the capital of Jiang Kingdom. ”

Ye Sangyu seems to have a soft spot for snow goose flowers, but Li Mengzhou has only heard of snow goose flowers, and he has never seen them, but the flowers that Ye Sangyu misses should be very beautiful.

The two of them whispered something about what they didn't have, and soon the room was quiet, because Ye Sangyu fell asleep unconsciously.

Li Mengzhou helped her fold the quilt and stood in front of the window again.

The night rain in Fengjiang County is coming, especially in Ninglu, which is a common thing, first the wind rises, the river is rumbling, and then there is a thunderstorm.

Thunder and lightning strikes, if you live alone, and you have a sneaky heart, you will probably be very scared.

Li Mengzhou thought of the person who lived in the West Wing and wrapped himself in an airtight airtight room.

He was just a little hungry, so he had some cranky thoughts.

The dinner just now was not enough for him to eat, and he even felt like he hadn't eaten.

He suddenly felt that it was a miracle that this inn could be opened.

If you're hungry, you won't be able to get a good night's sleep.

He wondered if he was going to the back kitchen of the inn to find out if there were any ingredients, whether the proprietress was reluctant to cook with ingredients and deliberately made those things that could not be eaten.

It's true that the proprietress didn't have good cooking skills, the amount of peanuts and fennel beans was also very small, and the only fish she made was broken, and she was finally eaten by the shopkeeper, but the proprietress didn't feel sorry for this fish, Li Mengzhou felt that there must be a lot of ingredients in the back kitchen.

It's really a black shop here, and the proprietress is too dark.

He cautiously pushed open the door and made his way to the back kitchen.

The inn was very quiet, there was not a trace of light, but fortunately, Li Mengzhou's eyesight was very good and he would not bump into anything.

The proprietress and the shopkeeper both live in the store, and there are not many houses on the second floor, and the proprietress has to occupy one, and the shopkeeper is directly in the lobby to lay the floor.

Li Mengzhou went down the stairs and tried not to disturb the shopkeeper, like a thief.

As expected, there were melons, fruits, vegetables and meat in the back kitchen, grabbing a tomato and nibbling on it, Li Mengzhou found the prepared noodles and simply made two bowls of noodles with the ingredients.

Ye Sangyu hadn't eaten much, but now she must be hungry, and she may wake up hungry soon, so Li Mengzhou helped her prepare a bowl of noodles.

Returning to the east wing on the second floor with two bowls of noodles, Ye Sangyu really didn't fall asleep completely, smelled the fragrance of noodles, and was awakened subconsciously.

"What is it?"

Ye Sangyu was very excited, although there were no candles burning in the room, she couldn't see anything.

Li Mengzhou put two bowls of noodles on the table, lit a candle by the way, and then replied: "I made two bowls of noodles casually, if you feel hungry, eat a little." ”

Ye Sangyu said with some hesitation: "You won't get fat this way." ”

Li Mengzhou couldn't help but roll his eyes, you have eaten so much along the way, why are you not afraid of gaining weight, but now you are hypocritical.

After Li Mengzhou's persuasion against his will, Ye Sangyu decisively gave up the question of whether he would gain weight, after all, only food in the world cannot be disappointed.

Just like when Li Mengzhou made egg fried rice for Ye Sangyu for the first time, no matter what he ate when he was hungry, it was fragrant, and Li Mengzhou thought that his cooking skills were not bad, at least much better than the proprietress.

So Ye Sangyu quickly ate a bowl of noodles, and Li Mengzhou also added minced meat to the noodles, which made this bowl of noodles a little more delicious.

Patting her little belly with satisfaction, Ye Sangyu yawned and looked teary-eyed.

Li Mengzhou sent the two empty bowls back into the kitchen, put them in a pile of dirty dishes that had not been washed at all, and then slowly returned to the room.

Ye Sangyu was lying on the table, as if he had fallen asleep.

Li Mengzhou closed the door and was stunned for a moment, as if reminiscing about the empty state after a full meal, and only then thought about carrying Ye Sangyu back to the bed.

However, after laying Ye Sangyu flat on the bed, he suddenly felt that something was not quite right.

Ye Sangyu's face was covered with beads of sweat, and his face was a little too pale, which was obviously not as simple as falling asleep.

Reaching out to her forehead, it was hot.

And it's not an ordinary hot, Li Mengzhou subconsciously thought that if he put an egg on it, it should be cooked soon.

Suddenly, this kind of thinking is a little inappropriate, Ye Sangyu is obviously sick, and it is not a minor illness.

Li Mengzhou was a little at a loss, although he had been with Long Lao, who was a pharmacist, for three years, he didn't know medicine at all, and he was not familiar with life in Ninglu City at night, and he didn't know who to go to.

The only one who could ask for help was the proprietress, and Li Mengzhou ran out of the room and rushed towards the room where the proprietress lived.

The proprietress 's room was not far from the east wing, only two rooms apart, because she was anxious, so Li Mengzhou didn't knock on the door, and broke in directly.

Then he looked ahead and froze.

The proprietress looked back at him silently, and the atmosphere seemed more and more eerie.

There was no candlelight in the room, but the door opened loud and the hostess certainly knew what had happened to her.

Of course, this is not the main thing.

She is now half-dressed, and it is a very shameful thing whether the person who opens the door and breaks in can see it or not.

Maybe the proprietress can also comfort herself by dimming her vision and the other party can't see it.

But Li Mengzhou really saw it.

And everything that can be seen has been seen.

Not to mention that his eyesight is amazing, the window of the room is also open, and although the moonlight outside is very faint, it can always illuminate some vision.

This is the first time Li Mengzhou has seen a woman...... So his head was a little confused.
