Chapter 47: East Street
After Song Bo, the clerk of Shuofang County, and his granddaughter Song Niang left Shuofang, they also traveled south along the Qin Straight Road. Because he was reluctant to spend, he came all the way, rested at the post station with the help of the talisman, slept under the porch covered with wheat straw, and ate onion soup and wheat rice.
However, they don't feel bitter, but they have a hard time and are worried that they will miss the time limit, so they get up early and sleep late every day. It took ten days to get to Pingding County, Xihe County.
After entering the county seat, it was almost noon, and Song Bo still wanted to go to the county prison and use the talisman to make do with something.
Song Niang felt sorry for her grandfather, and felt that she had been sleeping in the open for so many days, and she should improve it when she arrived in the county, otherwise she would not have arrived in Chang'an, but people would be dragged down, so she insisted on finding a better restaurant to eat.
Song Bo couldn't resist her, and he didn't spend much these days, and it was enough to entangle, so he responded to her.
Song Niang was so happy that she jumped up, and heard that the East Street in Pingding County was a lively place, so she took her grandfather over.
In the past ten days, it was the first time that Song Bo saw Song Niang so happy, and he felt a little sad in his heart, but he immediately made a happy look and followed Song Niang to East Street.
East Street was built on the cliff bank of the Yellow River, Song Niang was curious, shouting to see the Yellow River, people were still far away, and they were shrouded in the diffuse mist.
She wiped a handful of water droplets from her face and ran to the edge of the cliff, only to see the rushing river crashing down here, splashing water droplets tumbling like an avalanche, and the sun spilled in, reflecting a curved rainbow.
The little girl jumped and jumped with excitement, and after a while she quieted down, stared at the misty waterfall, turned her head and asked, "Ah Gong, can I shout?" ”
Song Bo smiled and nodded. Song Niang put her hands in front of her mouth, shouted loudly, "Ahh——,h
Song Bo burst into tears when he heard this.
East Street is very lively, wine houses, restaurants are full of guests, Song Bo led Song Niang to find a neat restaurant to enter, and the guys came to greet and sit.
It was the first time for Song Niang to eat in a restaurant, and she looked around curiously, and suddenly saw a familiar figure. She pulled down Uncle Song's sleeve, pointed to the door, and said, "It's Sister Lingyue." ”
Song Bo turned his head to look, and it was really Xu Fei, Ling Yue and Zhao Wuxian, who were standing at the door of the store discussing something. Xu Yu and Ling Yue seemed to be a little hesitant, but Zhao Wuyin tried his best to persuade them.
Song Niang got up and ran over, hugged Ling Yue's arm, and called out affectionately, "Sister Ling Yue." ”
Ling Yue turned around and saw that it was Song Niang, she was surprised and delighted, hugged her and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Song Niang smiled: "My grandfather and I came here for dinner." ”
Xu Yu said: "How expensive it is to eat here." Song Niang smiled but did not speak. The little girl saw that Zhao wanted to persuade them to eat in the restaurant for no reason, but Xu Yu seemed reluctant.
Sure enough, Zhao said for no reason: "When you go out, you can't be too frugal." In the past ten days, there was no vegetable Ru, and now I came to the county seat, why not even serve it as a feast. ”
Xu Yu said angrily: "What do you mean, I don't understand." ”
Zhao replied for no reason: "This is what the ancients said. ”
Xu Yu said angrily: "What the ancients said." The ancients are all dead, why don't you die? ”
Zhao looked embarrassed for no reason, opened his mouth and wanted to reply. Song Bo also came out at this time, and when he saw this, he pulled him away and signaled him not to talk anymore, which made Xu Yu unhappy.
Xu Yu muttered: "It's not easy to speak, it's not a good thing." ”
Ling Yue explained softly on the side: "He said that we have been walking very hard these days, and we haven't eaten properly. Now that I have arrived in the county seat, I can eat some good food and have the strength to walk. ”
Xu Yu turned her face, looked her up and down, and choked: "You guys are heart-to-heart." Ling Yue blushed with shame from what she said, and she didn't dare to make a sound.
Song Niang is also clever, stepped forward to hold Xu Fei's arm, and said with a smile: "Grandma, they are for your good." That's how I persuaded my grandfather, didn't he also enter the store to order? As he spoke, he turned his head and pursed his chin, motioning for Ling Yue to go in. Before Xu Yu could speak, she was dragged in by Song Niang, and Ling Yue followed behind. Song Bo took the opportunity to push Zhao into the store for no reason.
When the man saw that there were guests again, and knew that they were together, he moved a few tables, beckoned everyone to sit down, and asked what dishes they wanted, and Zhao replied for no reason to discuss it again.
Zhao picked up the wooden cake with the name of the dish written on it for no reason, looked at it carefully a few times, and said in a tone of soliciting opinions: "The two old men order a soup cake, which is soft and edible, and I will order some Hu cake later." Dishes, such as boiled pork liver, sliced sauce meat, and skewered grilled crucian carp, are good. ”
Xu Yu hesitated: "It's too much." ”
Song Bo thought about it and persuaded: "These days of trekking through mountains and rivers, the children are bitter and tired, and they should have a good meal." ”
Although Xu Yu was a little painful, she nodded after all.
Zhao called the guy for no reason to report the menu. Song Niang's childish temperament, she is looking forward to delicious food, and while talking quietly to Ling Yue, she can't help but look at the kitchen. Ling Yue embarrassed her and said, "Look at your gluttony, saliva is dripping down." Song Niang was stunned.
Zhao looked funny for no reason, and before he was about to speak, Xu Yu glared at him fiercely and quickly swallowed back.
After a while, the guy handed over the dishes with the table, and sent a few bowls of green onion soup, which was suddenly full of aroma, Song Bo greeted, and everyone raised the spoon together and started eating.
Song Niang had never eaten such a delicacy, and she didn't speak, just stuffed it into her mouth, her little face flushed, and she looked satisfied.
Song Bo turned his face to look at her from time to time, his eyes were full of pity, and after a while, he was a little sad, so he moved his slices of sauced meat over.
Song Niang was still chewing the meat in her mouth, and said inarticulately: "Ah Gong, you can eat it yourself." ”
Song Bo smiled: "Ah Gong is old and can't eat so much." ”
Xu Yu snorted and drank the soup cakes, and said enviously: "It's good that I have such a well-behaved granddaughter." He touched his heart again, and glared at Zhao Wuzhi fiercely.
Zhao pretended not to know for no reason, lowered his head, and ate the grilled fish slowly.
Everyone was eating delicious food and enjoying the roaring waterfall outside the window, in such a long-lost comfort, Song Niang's small face was filled with a satisfied smile, Ling Yue also forgot her troubles, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Zhao said for no reason: "Have you eaten everything?" I'll go and get the money. Song Bo took out the money bag and handed it over.
Zhao excused himself for no reason: "Uncle Song, I have money here, it's enough." ”
Song Bodao: "There is still a long way to go, and there are many places to use money." ”
Zhao said for no reason: "Then your old man should keep the money." When Uncle Song heard him say this, his heart warmed, and he sighed: "You are really a good boy." Xu Yu was displeased when she heard this, and her face sank.
Song Bo insisted on giving money, but Zhao couldn't help it for no reason, so he had to accept it. At this time, the guy came over to settle the account, and when he saw that the five people were happy, he smiled and said, "Your family is really harmonious."
Xu Yu heard Uncle Song praise Zhao Wureason just now, and her heart was angry, and when she heard the guy say this, she couldn't help jumping up and yelled loudly: "What a family, they are adulterers and adulteresses." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked, and everyone's eyes in the restaurant were turned to this place. Ling Yue was so ashamed that she raised her sleeves to cover her face, and Zhao was at a loss for no reason, so she was stunned for a while.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Uncle Song immediately stood up and said loudly: "Grandma's drunken nonsense disturbed you, sorry, sorry." He turned around and motioned for Zhao Wuyin to hurry out.
