Chapter 13 of "Xia Kexing" Chapter 13 Up to 60, down to 6 years old
Following Gongzi to the city at night, Yinxia felt that her mood suddenly brightened.
Different from the solemn and cold on the mountain, the hustle and bustle in Guanhui City is as if you have come to another world. As the shops open to the street, the owners of the shops offer warm smiles to the customers, and the goods from the north and south are gathered here, and the dazzling array of goods is dazzling.
Walking on the street, Yinxia found that Gongzi Ye was very familiar with the people in the city. After walking a few steps, a handsome girl who was buying fruit on the side called out to him, "Night, do you want to taste the fresh lychee?"
"Okay. Childe answered with a smile. The girl threw a large bunch of lychees at him through the crowd.
Raising his hand to catch it chicly, Gongzi leaned to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and happily threw a small silver ingot at the girl, "Thank you Xiaojiu, it's my favorite honey poppy." ”
Hearing his voice, the window on the second floor of the street opened with a "swish", and a beautiful young woman leaned out most of her body, "Night, come up and play." I just made a snack, it's your favorite food. ”
"No, I have guests today. Childe smiled at the woman, peeled a lychee, and handed it to Yinxia. His fingers are extremely dexterous, and with a slight pinch, the lychee shell is split in half.
Yinxia put the peeled flesh into her mouth, and a sweet fragrance that she had never tasted before slid across the tip of her tongue, making her saliva uncontrollably. This lychee really lives up to the praise of Gongzi Ye, not only the flesh is soft and smooth, but also sweet and juicy, and it leaves a fragrance between the teeth after eating.
"Come up with your guests. The young woman smiled sewitchingly at Childe, stroked her sideburns, and peeked at Yinxia.
"Another day, I'm going to walk the streets with her today. Childe said at night, while throwing a peeled lychee and opening his mouth to catch it. Yu Guang saw that Yinxia was looking at Lychee licking her lips, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and peeled another one for her.
"I must come next time. The young woman cried out unwillingly.
Childe raised his arm and waved his hand at her back, leading Yinxia forward along the street.
"Give me a few. Yinxia anxiously asked him for a small bunch of lychees and peeled them to fend for herself. Who would have thought that he would be easy to peel, but she couldn't peel one for half a day. She squeezed it hard, the juice splashed, and the lychee was flattened all at once.
"Give. Childe Ye's slender fingers stretched out, and a lychee with half of the shell removed was perfectly presented in front of Yinxia.
"It's better for you to come. Yinxia depressedly returned the lychee to him.
Childe smiled and squeezed it casually, and the lychee obediently split into two halves. He delicately plucked the top half of the husk, and the juice was still dripping. The round flesh, like a crystal clear gem, is contained in a tailor-made vessel.
It's amazing! Yinxia was stunned, and she couldn't wait to take his hand and take a good look. Not only does the pipa play well, but even the lychee is peeled so beautifully.
"Do you want to learn? I'll teach you. Childe looked at her with a smile on the night, her eyes sparkling, "Do you know that there is a knack for doing everything, and it is the most important thing to do it." ”
Yinxia's heart moved, and she always felt that he meant something.
Just as he was about to think about it, he held up a lychee and explained seriously: "Oh, you look at this place carefully." Is there a red line? In fact, there is such a red line hidden on every lychee shell, which is the weakest point on the shell. Finding this red line is like finding the trap button that breaks through the shell of a lychee. With a little pressure on the red line, the shell can be easily peeled off. He said and demonstrated, and it seemed extremely easy.
Yinxia was overjoyed, took it and gave it a try, and the lychee shell was suddenly pinched in half by her. Unexpectedly, she still used too much force, bursting out a lot/juice, which was splashing on Childe's face. She couldn't help but sneer at the red.
"I didn't expect the princess to be a hidden master. This kung fu of flying juice to take people's heads is really unguardable, and Xiaosheng admires it very much. Removing the juice, Childe Ye arched his hand in awe.
Yinxia glanced at him angrily, unconvinced to practice his elegant shelling method.
Childe Night excitedly proposes a competition. The two of you pinch one and I pinch one, eating and playing around, Yinxia gradually mastered the trick. was pinching up, but Childe Ye spread his hands and said no.
Yinxia was still unsatisfied, "Aren't you going to have a treat, go buy more and come back." ”
Childe Ye shook his head and said, "You can't do everything, otherwise fate will end early." You've perfected your secret weapon kung fu, so we might as well play something else. ”
"What does this have to do with doing things, are you afraid that I will surpass you?" Yinxia was very dissatisfied, "If you have a treat, you have to make the guests happy." If you are a guest in Yidu Castle, I will do my best to meet all your requests. ”
"Lychee is delicious but easy to catch fire, so you can't eat too much at one time. If you like it, I'll treat you to it next time. Seeing her gluttony for lychees, Childe tried her best to hold back her laughter.
"You're not lying?" Yinxia stared at him suspiciously.
"Absolutely not. Gongzi raised his hand to reassure, and pointed to the stall not far away, "The ring cake made by Granny Wang is also delicious, I'll take you to taste it." ”
Yinxia was suspicious and followed him to the stall.
Behind a steaming pan of oil, an energetic, gray-haired old woman was frying, and an enticing aroma wafted out of the pan.
"Granny Wang, come with two ring cakes, and ask for mung bean flour and milk vetch. Childe yelled at the mother-in-law at night, and threw a few pennies into the small rattan basket next to him.
"Yo, the night is coming. Wang Po raised her eyes and smiled kindly at him, and quickly picked out two yellow, orange and orange ring cakes from the big basket next to her, put them on bamboo skin, and handed them to him. And advised: "Just done, be careful of scalding." ”
Childe handed one to Yinxia at night. The two of them blew and ate separately.
Yinxia took a bite, and the cake broke into several pieces. She couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so sweet and crispy!"
"That's!" said Wang Po with a proud face, "I have added the best milk vetch honey to this cake." ”
Gongzi Ye smiled at Yinxia and said, "This mung bean milk vetch ring cake is cremated and eaten, and it doesn't hurt to eat a little more." However, this street is still very long, and there are many delicious things. I'll take you all the way over, and I'm afraid that someone will not have a big stomach when the time comes. ”
Yinxia ignored his jokes and watched Wang Po make cakes while eating.
But after seeing that the princess had made good noodles with honey water, she kneaded the noodles into thin strips. Then twist several sticks together into rings and put them in a pan to fry. When it is browned, quickly scoop it up and put it in a colander to cool on the side.
Yinxia watched it with relish. Wang Po made the cake in an orderly manner, and the heat was controlled very accurately. The ring cake just out of the pot is golden and crispy, with bursts of aroma, just looking at it makes people particularly appetizing. There is an endless stream of guests next to it. No matter what kind of request the guest has, Wang Po can quickly pick out the cake she wants.
Childe sighed at night: "Every time I watch my mother-in-law make and sell cakes, I feel like I am enjoying a silent dance. In my eyes, it is even comparable to the song and dance of the Spring Rain Qingge Workshop in the capital. People always use a generation of grandmasters to describe peerless masters, and in my opinion, my mother-in-law is a generation of grandmasters hidden in the market. ”
One sentence made the wrinkles on Wang Po's face melt with laughter, "I said that when you open your mouth at night, it's sweeter than my wife's honey." If I'm thirty or forty years younger, I'm afraid I'll be abducted by you. ”
The three of them laughed a few words, and Yinxia wanted to serve a ring cake with corn noodles and flower sauce, so she reluctantly left.
"Brother Night, Brother Night!" A crisp and delicate cry came from far and near.
Looking at the sound, a little girl of six or seven years old was carrying a basket of flowers, like a butterfly wearing flowers, and deftly came out of the crowd.
Running closer, the little girl held up the flower basket high, "Brother Night, I only picked these flowers this morning, and they are still carrying dew." This sister is so beautiful, send her a flower. "She is articulate, her words are crisp, and she looks very cute.
"Yo, that's a lot. Xiaolan is so capable!" Childe Ye touched her head and asked funny, "Since this sister is so beautiful, Xiaolan, what flowers do you think I should give her?"
Xiaolan looked at Yinxia carefully for a while, picked out a bouquet from the basket, and held it in front of Yinxia, "This flower is the most flattering to this sister." ”
It is a flower that Yinxia has never seen before, and it is composed of simple three petals, as if three small hands are put together. The stamens are pale yellow, the petals are transparent like paper, and the most peculiar thing is that there are two colors of pure white and purple red on the branches of seven or eight flowers in full bloom.
"What kind of flower is this?" Yinxia liked it very much.
Xiao Lan replied vividly: "The name of this flower is Triangle Plum." ”
Gongzi Ye stopped Yinxia's outstretched hand, and asked Xiaolan with a smile, "You said that this flower lined her, so you have to make sense." You can't make sense, I don't buy it. ”
Xiaolan put the flower basket beside her and replied seriously: "The name of this flower is Triangle Plum, also known as bougainvillea, which represents enthusiasm and perseverance. The branch I picked is the most precious, the flowers are bicolored, pure white as the moon, purple and red like flames, only my family has it in this city. This rare and rare flower is most suitable for a beauty with a temperament like my sister. Brother Night, you know people and flowers, so I especially recommend it to you. ”
Childe Ye smiled and nodded, "Hearing you say that, I really have to give her a branch." ”
"It must be sent!" Xiaolan's eyes lit up, handed the flower to Yinxia's hand, and reminded her, "There are thorns here, be careful not to get pricked." ”
"Xiaolan, she is getting better at business. Childe pinched Xiaolan's face and paid with a smile.
"That's not all Brother Ye taught well. Xiaolan collected the money and stuck her tongue out at him.
"What did he teach you?" Yinxia happily took the flower, and the more she looked at Xiaolan, the more cute she felt.
"Brother Ye said, what kind of flowers match what kind of beauty, don't be mistaken. Xiaolan looked at her and blinked, "He also said that each flower has a different temper and should be sold to someone who knows how to appreciate it." If you meet someone who doesn't know how to appreciate a beautiful flower, the flower will secretly cry. ”
"It's withering. Yinxia corrected.
"No, it's going to cry!" Xiaolan pursed her mouth high, "That's what Brother Night said. ”
"Okay, you're right. Yinxia smiled and hooked her little mouth, not caring like a child.
"Tell my sister a secret!" Xiao Lan pulled her down and whispered, "Brother Night is my big customer, and I have a different beauty by my side every time. ”
"Every time, a different beauty is by your side?" Yinxia looked at Childe Ye in surprise.
"Yes, the sisters around Brother Night are all big beauties, and I want to be a beauty next to Brother Night when I grow up. Lan grimaced at her and ran away with the basket.
Yinxia was stunned for a moment, pointed at Gongzi Ye and laughed, "That little girl likes you." ”
Childe was embarrassed in the night's eyes, and then returned to normal. He shook his head and sighed: "Xiaolan used to wilt and didn't like to talk, but now she has become so naughty, I really don't know who she learned from." ...... Actually, she's turning around and praising you for being a great beauty. ”
He's really popular with women. Yinxia looked at him, and her heart skipped a beat for no reason.
He has a soft and handsome face, dark eyes like stars, and thin and well-defined lips. When I laugh, there seems to be a sparkling lake in the depths of my eyes, which makes people sink unconsciously. With him, no matter how annoying you are, he always has a way of making you laugh. Around him, there is a kind of warm and indescribable comfort, like the spring sun shining on his body.
In the past, she always felt that the Central Plains people were too beautiful and less heroic, but he had another unique kind of ease. It's a kind of easy-going with people, and it's naturally intimate.
She suddenly remembered Zheng Mingxiu's evaluation of him: he has countless confidants. From a 60-year-old woman to a 6-year-old girl, he never refused. ...... Now it seems that these words are not wronged by him.
Thinking of this, she smiled and asked, "How do you know so many women?"
"What's so strange about this, knowing is knowing. Childe smiled lazily at night, and his right hand wrapped his arms around her slender waist very naturally, "It's like you and me, we didn't know each other before, aren't we very familiar now?"
"Who's got to know you well. Yinxia's face sank, and she slapped his restless paws away with a wave of her palm.
"Ouch, can't you just do something to me?" Childe shook his hands in pain and puffed out his mouth and blew his red hand.
Hmph, this person really can't give a good look. Yinxia glanced at him and looked forward to himself.
Childe secretly had fun at night and chased after him with a smile. As soon as she teases her, she will open her teeth and claws like a little beast, which is so fun!
