"Boss, two bowls of glutinous rice balls, one bowl of peanut filling, and one bowl of sesame filling," she turned around and asked after ordering, "Big ice cube, what filling do you have?"
"So you ordered those two bowls for yourself?" Xiao Xu didn't understand her enthusiasm for dumplings, "I'll do whatever you want."
"You don't know how much I miss the taste of glutinous rice balls. The articulation is fragrant, creamy and crispy, chi chi chi, my saliva, boss, another bowl of sesame filling!" Chu Qingyan immediately stopped the fantasy and immediately faced the boss. shouted.
"Okay guest officer, the two of you sit down for a while, and they will serve you soon!" The boss sang loudly, and put the glutinous rice balls into the pot.
Chu Qingyan smiled when she heard the words, then turned around and pulled the big ice cube to find a place to sit down, but when she saw the slightly messy table and chairs, she hesitated, eating in this kind of place, a little wronged by the big ice cube .
As if not seeing the little guy's hesitation, Xiao Xuluo sat down generously and poured her a cup of tea by the way, "Drink a cup of water, you have run all the way."
Seeing that he didn't care, Chu Qingyan pursed her lips and smiled mischievously, "Okay, thank you cousin!"
Xiao Xu shook his head helplessly, the little guy became more and more sloppy.
When the steaming glutinous rice balls came up, Chu Qingyan greeted the big ice cube, and immediately took a mouthful of glutinous rice balls and stuffed it into her mouth.
Then Xiao Xu, who was slow, saw her face suddenly wrinkle, and spit out the dumplings with a "wow", "Eat slowly, it's very hot."
Chu Qingyan stuck out her tongue, her eyes were moist like Xiao Wang's, and she said pitifully, "It's scalding me to death!"
Xiao Xu blew the dumplings in the spoon and glanced at her, "I can't eat the hot dumplings in a hurry." After speaking, he put the dumplings into his mouth.
Chu Qingyan fanned the wind to her mouth, and then asked enviously, "Is it delicious?"
"It's okay." The sesame filling is not too sweet, and the taste is really okay. Xiao Xu is honest.
Chu Qingyan felt itchy when she heard the words, she waited for the dumplings to cool down for a while, and immediately took a sip into her mouth, and the moment she bit the skin, her eyes narrowed happily into a line, "It's good, this is better than what I ate before. It is more authentic, without any preservatives added, which makes people feel at ease.”
The intoxicated expression was easily satisfied. Xiao Xu took the spoon in his hand and said, "It's just a bowl of dumplings. It's worth your emotion? If others listened to it, they would think I abused you."
"Hey, this is called contentment and happiness," Chu Qingyan stirred the dumplings in the mixing bowl with a sincere smile on her face, "Of course the big ice cubes are very good to me, no one would think that way, do not worry."
Xiao Xu shook his head and let her go.
Xiao Xu has always eaten with grace but speed. By the time he finished one bowl, the snack shop across the street had already eaten up two bowls.
Chu Qingyan licked the corner of her mouth, and immediately reached out her hand, "Boss, two more bowls!"
Xiao Xu raised his hand, "No need, that's enough."
"Big ice cubes, I'm not full yet!" Chu Qingyan protested.
"The protest is ineffective, it's too late, you eat so much glutinous rice, it's time for a stomach upset at night." Xiao Xu ruthlessly rejected her request.
"Stingy, drink cold water!" Chu Qingyan whispered secretly.
It was quiet here, and the small voice couldn't escape his ears at all, but he didn't care about her, got up and waited for her to pay to leave.
Chu Qingyan, who put down the silver taels, suddenly came back to her senses, and the big ice cube gave her the money bag, did she intend to make her pay? Will call people, uh huh!
How did Xiao Xu know the little Jiujiu in her heart, holding her hand and walking slowly towards the downtown.
"Big ice, why are there so many begging people there?"
When she walked to an alley, Chu Qingyan was amazed by the beggars lying all over the alley. As soon as she finished speaking, those beggars immediately came towards her, surrounded the two of them, stretched out their hands, and held out broken bowls. He begged, "You two sons, give me some money, we haven't eaten for several days, I beg you two."
All faces are yellow and skinny, with a sullen expression, unkempt face, and tattered clothes, some of which are about to be naked, Chu Qingyan glanced at the people beside him.
"The money is on you, you decide." Xiao Xu knew what she was thinking without looking at her.
Chu Qingyan nodded, took out the purse, took out the money inside and distributed it.
"Young Master is a good man, thank you!"
"We can finally eat."
"Guanyin Bodhisattva, bless, thank you!"
"… "
The beggars who received the silver taels thanked them one after another. Just as Chu Qingyan was about to respond, she saw other beggars rushing over to see this scene. She ran in the other direction until she got rid of the people behind her, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
She panted and looked at the man whose face was not blushing or panting, and couldn't help but say, "Why do you look at nobody?"
"Exercise hard, you can too." Xiao Xu replied leisurely.
Chu Qingyan sighed, not wanting to argue with him about this issue, recalling the terrifying army of beggars just now, and realizing that her poor silver tael was just a drop in the bucket for them, she couldn't help but ask, "Big ice cubes. , Pingyang City said that prosperity is also prosperous, and it is normal to have beggars, but why are there so many?"
Basically an alley is occupied, not to mention those begging on the side of the street.
"These people should be from Qi County." Xiao Xu lowered his head to help her straighten her clothes that were messed up by running, looked up to see her doubts, and explained, "People in Qi County like to embroider on the waist. A rose is a custom in their place, which has lasted for a hundred years."
Chu Qingyan suddenly realized that she hadn't noticed it just now. She didn't expect that the big ice cube was carefully observed, and she discovered it all at once, but how profound is it to be able to understand the customs and habits of a small local county
"Qixian County is one of the three districts and seven counties under Liu Ying's jurisdiction, but there was a flood in the past few years, and Qixian County was flooded. The court issued a disaster relief silver tael to survive the disaster, but there must be something strange about these people appearing here. ." Xiao Xu frowned, thinking of the secret report he had received before, and he had already thought of something.
Chu Qingyan also remembered the information on the paper that he had seen before, and couldn't help but think of the missing disaster relief silver tael.
And at this moment, Chu Qingyan felt the body of the people around him suddenly tense up, "What's wrong?"
"We are being followed." Xiao Xu glanced at the figure hiding in the dark, and said in a voice that the two of them could hear.
Chu Qingyan looked around suddenly, "Why are people being targeted? What should we do?"
"I don't know who the other party is, don't look around, pretend nothing happened, and follow me!" Xiao Xu took her hand and said in a clear and calm voice.
"good!"
