Nangong Li's heart is now like knocking over the five-flavor bottle, she thinks of a person, who is her master, and she can now completely experience that feeling.

The sour feeling in my heart is like this bowl of sour plum soup.

It's not jealousy, it's sadness.

Nangong Li looked at Lou Yun in front of her, and she didn't know what to say.

Maybe such an infatuated man has already passed by her, and now everything is like his distant figure, you can only watch from a distance, when you turn around and try to run back to the intersection where you met, there are already others standing next to him.

And that person was never himself.

Nangong Li picked up the big wrist and drank the sour plum soup, and as the soup went down, tears also flowed from the corners of her eyes, I don't know if it was because the sour taste of the sour plum soup was too strong, or because her heart was too sour.

Lou Yun doesn't know what to say now, maybe he has broken her heart and betrayed her friendship, but this may be the best ending, this is the best for her or for herself.

Lou Yun didn't want to delay her, let alone wronged her. In the same way, he didn't want to live up to Lin Luoyao, who had always been by his side.

Since you are promised a lifetime, it is a lifetime, and a year, a month, a day, or an hour is not a lifetime.

If Lin Luoyao heard this, she would be very moved at first, but in the end, she would be angry with Lou Yun.

Lou Yun saw the tears that slipped from Nangong Lixiang's cheeks.

The owner of the tavern, looking at the young man and woman with a sigh and a shake of his head, took two thick bowls of sour plum soup and put them on their table.

Both Lou Yun and Nangong Li were taken aback by this sudden person.

The boss was an old man with gray hair.

The boss asked with a smile, "I wonder if the two of you are satisfied with the sour plum soup in the shop?"

Nangong Li wiped her tears with her hands and didn't speak, Lou Yun said with a bitter face: "It tastes good." ”

The boss smiled and said, "Since it tastes good, let's invite the guest officer to drink another bowl." ”

Lou Yun stood up and thanked: "Boss, you don't have to, it's okay to have a bowl." ”

The boss said: "Since the guest officer doesn't want to drink, it must be that the small shop is not doing well?"

Lou Yun waved his hand and shook his head and said, "No! ”

The boss still smiled and said, "Since it's not the guest officer, what if you taste it?"

Lou Yun couldn't resist the boss, so he tasted it gently. The boss nodded with satisfaction.

The boss pushed another bowl in front of Nangong Li, and then said, "Little Lao'er also invite this girl to take a sip." ”

Nangong Li looked at him, and then looked at the sour plum soup in the bowl, she didn't hesitate, picked up the bowl and took another big sip.

A smile tugged at the corner of the boss's mouth.

The boss's hand was propped up on the table, and then he asked, "I don't know the two guest officers, is there any difference between this bowl of sour plum soup and the one you just drank?"

Lou Yun shook his head and said, "There is no difference. ”

Then the boss looked at Nangong Li. He was waiting for Nangong Li's answer.

Nangong Li said: "There is no difference. ”

The boss said, "Then please ask the two guest officers to taste it again." ”

Lou Yun picked up the bowl and took another sip, and then Nangong Li also took a sip.

The boss asked again, "How does it taste?"

Lou Yun shook his head, and Nangong Li also shook his head.

The boss moved a bamboo chair at this time and sat there.

Then without saying a word, he crossed Erlang's legs and looked at the two of them.

Lou Yun and Nangong Li glanced at each other, and the two of them took another sip, the taste of this sour plum soup was no different from the one just now.

And the boss sat there and watched them without saying a word, until the two of them drank all the sour plum soup in the bowl, and they didn't taste any strange taste. I felt that my stomach was a little swollen.

Lou Yun asked at this time, "I wonder what is the difference between this bowl of sour plum soup and the bowl just now?"

The boss laughed at this time, and he said, "There is no difference in the first place. ”

"Huh!?" Nangong Li and Lou Yun exclaimed at the same time.

The boss smiled: "Don't be angry first, Xiao Lao'er has no other meaning, I heard your conversation just now, this girl likes you little brother, what about this little brother because he doesn't want to live up to other girls, and rejected this girl, is what Xiao Lao'er said right?"

Nangong Li nodded silently.

The boss said: "Sometimes life is like this bowl of sour plum soup, first it is sour, then it tastes sweet, and finally it is cool in the stomach." And no matter where this sour plum soup goes, it is still this bowl of sour plum soup, and he has never changed. ”

"It's just the person who makes the soup and the bowl that serves it, and the person who drinks it. ”

"But no matter how it changes, the sour plum soup is still the sour plum soup. It always tastes like that. It's just the bowl of soup. ”

After the boss finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the stove to do his own thing. Lou Yun and Nangong Li looked at each other, not knowing what the boss meant.

Lou Yun looked at the thick bowl in front of him, and then at the thin bowl where the two of them had just drunk soup.

A flash of inspiration flashed in my mind and I suddenly understood what the boss meant, that's right, the sour plum soup is still sour plum soup, nothing has changed, it has just changed the bowl of soup. Nangong Li looked at the empty bowl in front of her, she was still thinking about what the boss meant.

Lou Yun stood up, then stepped forward and bowed to the boss and said, "Thank you, old man, for your advice." As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver and placed it in front of him.

After that, he took Nangong Li's hand.

When his hand touched Nangong Li's hand, Nangong Li was full of cleverness, and that feeling was like an electric shock.

This is the first time that Lou Yun has taken the initiative to grab her hand.

Lou Yun took her hand, and Nangong Li didn't know what it meant. He could only follow Lou Yun and leave. She smiled, though she didn't know why.

The boss looked at the back of Lou Yun and Nangong Li leaving, and smiled slightly.

Since Lou Yun left, Lin Luoyao also started to prepare.

The businessmen were right, Lou Yun bought all the rice, and the market was out of stock. Not only the people of Yangzhou have been affected, but even the people in the surrounding areas and even the people in Qilu have been affected.

After the large-scale buyout of Louyun here, the price of rice began to rise everywhere.

The original price of 500 wen and one stone of rice has now become 600 wen, and in some places it is even 700 wen or 800 wen.

The price of rice had risen sharply, and these merchants should have been the happiest, but now they were not happy.

That is, they look at such a high price of rice, but there is no rice to sell. Because all the rice in their hands was bought by Lou Yun. Except for what was left in the rice bowl at home, they didn't have a single grain of extra food.

Some of the big inns don't have rice to steam rice, and some have started to make northern baked cakes and steamed buns to satisfy their customers.

Have you ever understood what the boss meant?
