Chapter 420: "West Garden World"

Liu Man and Ma Chao felt very strange and followed him in. After entering, Ma Chao saw that this was a small noodle restaurant, with seven or eight tables, five or six customers were eating soup cakes, and a slightly chubby guy was wiping an empty table with his back to them. Ma Chao was a little surprised that the tables and chairs he "invented" had been passed on to Jingshi. When he was still sitting in the seat when he went to court, Ma Chao thought that Jingshi didn't have a table or chair yet. Ma Chao looked in and saw that the innermost part was the kitchen, and he could clearly see that the cooks inside were skillfully pulling off the dough piece by piece with his hands and throwing it into the boiling water piece by piece to cook it. The cooked dough flakes will gradually rise to the surface, and the cook will use a wooden colander to remove them and pour them into the steaming soup.

Jian Shuo walked in, found an empty table and sat down, and motioned for Ma Chao and Liu Man to sit down as well. Liu Man sat down generously, and Ma Chao also sat next to Liu Man with a little apprehension. Jian Shuo shouted: "Shop, shop? ”

The fellow quickly put the rag that wiped the table on his shoulder, turned and ran, and shouted cheerfully as he ran: "Eh! Come on~"

Ma Chao was originally wandering in the world, but suddenly heard this guy's voice a little familiar, and followed the sound to look over, and the guy was running over with a smile on his face. Seeing the guy's face, Ma Chao was stunned. When Liu Man came in, she could see who that person was when she looked at her back, she turned her head slightly and looked at Ma Chao's wonderful expression. Before Ma Chao could react, the guy came to the table and asked with a spring breeze on his face: "I don't know what kind of soup and cakes do you want to eat for the three guests?" ”

I saw the guy running the hall, it was Liu Hong today. At this moment he removed the tiara, and did not wear a wide-sleeved tiara; His hair was tied up with strips of cloth, and a musty-smelling rag hung down from his shoulders, and he was dressed in a cloth garment worn by the poor, with several patches on it. He was looking at Ma Chao with a smile and interest.

Ma Chao just wanted to stand up and salute, but Jian Shuo, who was sitting opposite, and Liu Man, who was sitting next to him, stretched out their hands and put their hands on Ma Chao's shoulders and stopped Ma Chao. Ma Chao then understood that in this "Westworld", oh no, it should be called "Westpark World" to be precise, he is an ordinary patron who eats soup cakes, and he can't get out of his role.

Ma Chao sat down again, his face calm. Ma Chao looked at Jian Shuo, then at Liu Man, and smiled at Liu Hong, who was dressed as a running boy and dressed in a short brown cloth: "Give us three bowls of soup cakes, sprinkle some pepper in the soup, and put more mutton." ”

Liu Hong, who was running the hall, nodded and said happily: "Okay, the three guests, please wait for a while, put three bowls of soup cakes with pepper and large pieces of mutton, and come soon!" ”

As he spoke, Liu Hong ran to the back kitchen again, shouting, "Three bowls of soup cakes!" Add pepper and lamb! ”

Ma Chao was surprised and fresh when he saw that Liu Hong was so skilled, even better than the average running buddy. Liu Man laughed in a low voice: "Hehe, I didn't expect it, right?" ”

Ma Chao shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that Your Majesty is really unique." ”

Jian Shuo, who was sitting opposite, also smiled in a low voice: "Not only is the guy in the soup and cake shop, Your Majesty has also played the role of various vendors, and even drank and played with people in the wine shop. ”

Ma Chao was even more surprised when he heard it.

At this time, Liu Hong's high-pitched shouting sounded again: "Eh! The hot, fragrant lamb and pepper soup cakes are here! ”

Ma Chao looked forward and saw Liu Hong put three bowls of soup cakes on the tray one by one from the cook, and then skillfully held up the heavy tray with one hand, shouting happily, while walking over with steady steps, and steadily put the tray on the table. Ma Chao looked down and saw that there was no soup spilled on the tray; The soft white soup cakes, the red pieces of mutton, and a little green green onion are all lying obediently in the clear soup.

"A few guests are in a hurry, the soup cake is coming!" Liu Hong said happily as he put three bowls of soup cakes in front of the three of them one by one. Then Liu Hong smiled and said to Ma Chao: "Three bowls of soup cakes with mutton, a total of twenty yuan." ”

Ma Chao looked at Liu Hong's deep pupils, and after thinking about it, he said, "I came out in a hurry, and I didn't bring enough money." ”

Liu Hong smiled with folds and crow's feet on his face, and he smiled: "Look at what the guest said, the guest is dressed in brocade, how can he have no money?" ”

Ma Chao smiled: "There is no money, but maybe this can be used to deduct the soup cake money." ”

As he spoke, Ma Chao untied a dagger from his waist. Ma Chao pulled out the dagger, and a white light flashed on the smooth blade, and Liu Hong couldn't help but squint.

Ma Chao put the dagger in the tray and said, "This dagger is unusually sharp, the store can use it to slaughter sheep and cut mutton." I don't know if this dagger can still enter the eyes of the store? ”

Liu Hong looked at the smile on Ma Chao's face, immediately reached out and picked up the dagger, and said, "Since that's the case, the small shop will accept it." ”

Ma Chao and Liu Hong looked at each other and smiled.

Jian Shuo quickly understood the wit of the two and smiled with them. Only Liu Man on the side was puzzled, and looked at the smiling three people in confusion.

Liu Hong put away the dagger, and said with a smile on his face: "Then the guests eat slowly, and the small shop will not be disturbed." With that, Liu Hong walked away, walked into the back kitchen, opened another door and walked in and closed it.

Jian Shuo picked up the chopsticks and said to Ma Chao: "Guest, eat soup cakes." ”

Ma Chao nodded, he also wanted to taste the soup cakes in the emperor's shop. Now it's past noon, and Ma Chao is also a little hungry. Picking up chopsticks and holding a piece of dough, Ma Chao immediately felt that the taste was very familiar. Thinking about it carefully, the taste of this bowl of soup cakes was very similar to what he had eaten in Yongle Palace.

Liu Man, who shared a bench with Ma Chao, smiled: "Hehe, have you eaten it?" ”

Ma Chao asked while eating, "Your Majesty taught you to do this?" ”

Liu Man also said while eating: "Yes, when Princess Ben was young, my father often brought Princess Ben to the West Garden to play. The father taught Princess Ben how to make soup cakes. ”

"Oh, I see." Ma Chao stuffed mutton in his mouth and said vaguely.

Liu Man took small bites and asked, "Hey, what is the flying saucer you said before?" Why hasn't Princess Ben heard of it? ”

Ma Chao said while eating: "It's a long story, I'm eating, it's better not to say it." ”

Liu Man hugged Ma Chao's arm and shook it again, and said coquettishly: "Hmm~, Brother Ma Chao, just tell people, people really want to know ......"

Not only because he reacted again, but also because he couldn't stand Liu Man's contrived expression and hypocritical voice when he was coquettish, which made Ma Chao get goosebumps all over the place. Ma Chao couldn't stand it, so he broke free of Liu Man's hand and said impatiently: "Okay, good!" I said, I said it's not enough? ”

Liu Man was very happy when she succeeded, she said: "Okay, okay, then you can say it quickly, this princess listens!" ”
