Wen Tian wanted to ask anything else, but Nan Nan had already taken his hand and walked outside.
The group of people took the carriage again to the restaurant where they went to Nannan for dinner last night. It was not yet time for lunch, and there were few customers in the restaurant. Only a few people who seemed to be relatively leisurely were sitting in twos and threes. Chatting while munching on melon seeds and peanuts.
Nannan walked quietly against the wall and chose an inconspicuous corner to sit down.
Although he was unusually low-key, he still attracted the attention of other guests, who pointed at him and made some remarks.
Nan Nan didn't care. He ordered a pot of tea and a plate of snacks, then took Yu Bao'er and Wen Tian to sit down together and ate slowly.
Wen Tian was a little frightened. It was rare for him to see Nan Nan look so...gentle and reserved when he was eating.
As the saying goes, if something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Nannan's behavior made him very uneasy.
But he didn't say anything, just stared at the door.
Gradually, it was approaching noon, and it was not far from the Four Nations Competition. It was considered a relatively central location. We had just arrived at the meal time, and the entire restaurant was already slowly filling up with people.
The gentleman who was preparing to tell the story at the table in front also touched his beard, slowly unfolded the fan in his hand, coughed slightly, and slightly raised his deep eyes towards the noisy hall.
"Hey, storyteller, is what I'm going to say today a continuation of the joke from last night? We came here specially to wait for you today, so hurry up and start."
Some guests already stood up from their seats, shouting and laughing.
"Yes, yes, let's start quickly. Tell me quickly, why did that prince abandon his female doctor?"
The prince abandoned his female doctor? Wen Tian paused slightly while holding the cup to drink tea, frowned and looked at the person who had just spoken.
When did this storyteller become so good at making up stories? Instead of talking about the deeds of those ancient generals and literati, he started talking about the love between children, and... the heroine is a doctor
Wen Tian still heard a little about what happened in the hall yesterday. Although it was not very detailed, he knew almost everything.
The story told by this storyteller... seems a bit like the story about their prince and Miss Qing.
Wen Tian suddenly turned his head to look at Nan Nan. Seeing the little guy's bright eyes, he suddenly understood.
Before he could think too deeply, the storyteller over there had already begun to raise his chin proudly, "Why are you so anxious? Isn't this about to start? Everyone, please keep your ears open, don't miss it."
"Okay, stop being pretentious and hurry up."
The restaurant owner looked at the guests in the hall, and even the private rooms with open doors were already overcrowded, and he was so happy that he opened his mouth from ear to ear.
At this moment, he happened to walk in front of Nannan. He had already eaten a plate of braised chicken feet, a plate of osmanthus cake, a plate of spicy peanuts, a plate of beef slices, and a plate of crystal meatballs. Now he was not ambiguous at all. He ordered a lot of expensive and exquisite delicacies. He looked like a noble son, but he liked them very much. He wished that guests like him would come to his door every day to take care of his voice.
Therefore, he deliberately tried to trick him, "The young master looks familiar."
"Ah? Oh, I was here last night, too." Nan Nan replied casually, took the chopsticks and put a piece of fish into his mouth.
The restaurant owner immediately smiled and said, "No wonder, young master, are you satisfied with the dishes in my restaurant?"
"Satisfied." Why did this man keep standing in front of him and nagging, blocking him from seeing the storyteller.
"Haha, the young master is so cute. Since he likes the dishes in the shop, I will give him another crystal shrimp dumpling."
With a "ding", Nannan's eyes immediately lit up, and she finally turned her absent-minded gaze to the boss. You don't have to pay for some food? That's a good feeling. He waved his little hand immediately, "Okay, but I have to give away two sets. You see, I'm not the only child here."
"That's that." The boss's face stiffened for a moment, but seeing that he was wearing extraordinary clothes and being guarded by a strict-looking guard like Wen Tian, he could only nodded with a dry smile.
When Nannan was satisfied, she turned to look at the storyteller beside her.
The restaurant owner finally realized the purpose of his trip. It turns out that this young man also came for the story he just started telling last night.
His eyes rolled around twice, he said another word to Nan Nan, then turned and left.
Just turning a corner, he ran behind the storyteller again and whispered a few words in his ear, "Try to tell this story as long and detailed as possible. You can also add something else in the middle. Wage." I’ll give you another layer.”
The storyteller was stunned for a moment, then smiled happily, "Don't worry, I know how to do it."
The restaurant owner glanced at Nannan again, then turned and walked away.
The guests below were already impatient with waiting, and all of them clamored for the storyteller to start quickly.
Nan Nan looked at the door anxiously and asked Bao'er, "Why hasn't anyone come yet?"
"Nan Nan, printing is not that fast, and you ask for so much printing."
"Oh, those people are so stupid, can't you print and bind some first and bring them over?"
Yu Baoer touched his nose. In fact, he asked the printing workshop to take his time and not print too much. He was really worried that his sister would be furious when she found out, so it was better to be safe.
Nannan took a hard bite of the smooth tofu and stared at the storyteller's mouth angrily.
"By the way, yesterday we talked about the part where the prince abandoned the female doctor and left alone. Today, we will talk about the second stage."
The storyteller finally spoke. As soon as he spoke, the noisy hall suddenly became quiet. Everyone craned their necks to wait for his next story.
"After the female doctor left, she felt very depressed. She missed the prince, but hated him for abandoning him. She once wanted to abort the child in her belly. It's a pity that the child was so lucky that he shouldn't be aborted. No matter what she did, the female doctor was fine. She jumped into the river and was rescued. She was dying, but the baby was still in her stomach and nothing happened. She also tried hanging. Although it took a long time, the baby was still stable. Sure enough. In the end, the female doctor was so filled with hatred that she even prepared a pair of abortion pills for herself. But after drinking it, the blood flowed all over the floor, but the baby was still saved."
One of the guests frowned and said, "This female doctor is too cruel. I'm a storyteller. In the story you told yesterday, you said that the female doctor was affectionate and righteous. She even ignored her own innocence in order to save the prince." ?"
