Chapter 40: Watching the moon from the rooftop

Views:

After Bai Xi withdrew his moon-admiring gaze, he turned around and looked at a stall behind him. The stall owners were an old couple. Although their clothes were simpler, they had happy smiles on their faces.

"It's filled with egg yolk and it's delicious." The old woman said with a smile, her eyes full of kindness.

When Bai Xi was about to take out the silver, the old woman said again, "I don't need any more money. Master, just take it and eat it." After saying that, the old woman directly stuffed the mooncake in Bai Xi's hand.

"Young master, you are so lucky. This old lady of mine is usually stingy. It's rare to see her generous, so please help her." The old man on the side agreed with a smile and said, "Don't think that my old lady is bragging. She made it with her own hands. The mooncakes are the best in the city."

"You old man, you're bragging again." The old woman glared at her, but her eyes were full of smiles, without a trace of displeasure. Instead, she gave people a very happy feeling.

Bai Xi smiled lightly and was infected by their happiness. He took a bite of the mooncake and chewed it carefully. Indeed, the old man was right. This mooncake is indeed delicious. Although the appearance is not good, the taste is good. Rich, especially after entering the mouth, you can still feel the happy taste when they make mooncakes.

"delicious."

"Young Master is not from Huashan?"

"That's right." This person is from Huashan, but she is not.

"That's it, then you should have more fun tonight." The two old men did not continue to ask, "Young Master, please go to the next street. There are many beautiful lanterns there. You can go and take a look."

"Yes, the old woman is right, and there will be a fire dragon dance tonight. Young Master can have fun and leave beautiful memories for himself."

"Okay, thank you both, and happy Mid-Autumn Festival!" Bai Xi did not think deeply about the old man's words, but just smiled and said goodbye.

"What a handsome young man. If I were 40 years younger, I would definitely marry him."

"Yeah, if I were forty years younger, I would marry him too."

"Old man, if you want to marry, it depends on whether the young master wants you."

The old man grinned, looked at each other, and laughed.

"Huh? This is... This young man is not only handsome, but also very generous. It's a pity that I am old."

When the old man saw the one hundred taels of silver notes in the old woman's hand, he was startled for a moment, and then sighed, "I just saw that the young man was going to be bloody. I hope God can bless him and be safe."

"Old man, why didn't you say anything just now?"

"Hey, it's useless to say it. It's all fate. But I also saw that he was destined to have a noble person to help him. Now I can only hope that the young master can meet his destined noble person."

"I hope the Bodhisattva will bless that young man to be safe and sound." The old woman also sighed and did not blame the old man, because she knew that the reason why the old man refused to say it was because of her. Otherwise, he would not have done it. I swore in front of the Bodhisattva that I would never tell anyone else’s fortune again in my life, and even if I accidentally saw it, I would never tell that person. Otherwise, there will be thunder and lightning, and life will be worse than death.

Before Bai Xi reached the street the two old men were talking about, she heard the sound of firecrackers and cheers coming from there. Not long after, she saw giant dragons in the distance. "Flying in the air", accompanied by ten gongs and drums, the suona played various tunes such as "General's Order" and "Victory Order". Following the rhythm of gongs, drums and suona, the dragon dancers danced the dragon lanterns in unison, like a line A fire dragon flying in the air is truly spectacular.

There were crowds on both sides of the street, and the crowd almost formed a human wall. It was impossible to squeeze in to watch the fire dragon dance. Bai Xi did not go forward to watch the fire dragon dance, but walked to a noodle stall on the street.

"What kind of face do you want, Master?"

"I can knead it myself, okay?" She prefers making dough to dancing with fire dragons. She remembers that the first dough making she received was given to her by that cold old man. No, to be precise, it was thrown to Hers, but also the only gift he gave himself. After that, she fell in love with the face man.

"Of course." The vendor readily agreed.

Bai Xi concentrated on pinching the face figures, not noticing that she had attracted the attention of the surrounding people. Under her skillful hands, the three face figures were quickly completed.

"Young Master is really good at your craftsmanship." The vendor sincerely praised him, showing no trace of jealousy and a smile from the bottom of his heart.

"Thank you." After Bai Xi gave the vendor money, he took the three-faced men and left without paying attention to the different expressions of the people. However, she had just walked a few steps when a figure blocked her way, "Sir, , my young master wants to buy the noodles you have?"

"It will be sold later." Bai Xi frowned and walked directly past the figure and continued walking forward.

"Sir, this is one thousand taels."

“…”

"Two thousand taels."

There was a sound of gasping all around. Can they not be frightened that a small-faced man can be sold for two thousand silver taels

"If I say I won't sell it, will you continue to increase the price?" Bai Xi smiled.

"yes."

"In order to avoid wasting time, just tell me what is the highest price your young master can offer?" She wanted to see how much the noodle in her hand was worth.

"Ten thousand taels."

Wow, the exclamations from the surroundings got even louder, buying a three-faced man for ten thousand taels? Did they hear it right

"Where is your young master?" A prodigal, this is definitely a prodigal.

"This is 10,000 taels. Please give me the face directly, sir." The other party was as cold as ever, as if he didn't hear the reactions from around him.

"If your young master really wants to buy the noodle in my hand, let him come to me in person." What she wants to know is whether the buyer is really after the noodle in her hand or on her

As soon as he finished speaking, the other party's expression darkened, and at the moment he hesitated, Bai Xi had disappeared from his sight.

The man did not chase after him, but went directly to a private room in Piaoxiang Restaurant not far from the restaurant where he met. He saw a man sitting by the window of the private room, "Subordinate I neglected my duty and let that person go."

"It doesn't matter."

"My subordinates don't know why the young master must buy the noodle from that person's hand?"

The man looked straight at the figure outside the window, and finally locked his eyes on a white figure, and smiled softly, "Didn't you see the portrait in his hand?"

"Huh? That's..."

"Since he wants to see me, then go and see me." After saying this, a gust of wind blew up, and the man's figure had disappeared into the private room.

Wearing gorgeous clothes, fair complexion, beautiful forehead, strong nose, sharp and clear eyes showing extremely high intelligence, sexy thin lips slightly raised, the whole person has quite aura.
