Chapter 56: The little girl at the bun shop

Views:

The old city is naturally inferior to the bustling modern new city.

Looking up, there are no buildings with more than seven floors. The tallest building is only a six-story tenement building.

However, although it is not as prosperous as the new urban area, most of the people who have lived here all their lives are unwilling to leave.

Probably because it has more human touch than the indifferent and tall stone forest.

Miss Baozi Shop.

Basically every morning it is full of people. The guests are naturally old neighbors and know the boss well. Inside the store is the relationship between customers and the boss, and outside the store is the relationship between old friends.

"Little girl! Add a pot of tea here!"

An old man who was still full of spirit shouted at this time.

In front of the hall, a little girl who was bending over to clean up the leftovers after the guests left quickly responded and hurried to give the old man tea.

"Old Chen, where did you invite this little girl back? She works diligently! And she is also beautiful! The young girls nowadays, even those who are pretty look down on these hard workers!"

is not that right

It is about the grade of twenties, and the water is like a lotus in clear water. When you smile, you can feel at ease unconsciously.

It was still a very hot morning, but sitting in this kind of old shop with no air conditioner and the door open, I felt a burst of coolness.

The little girl walked among the table guests with a light figure, like a butterfly.

"If I were thirty years younger, I would definitely chase after her! Oh no...forty years!"

"me too!"

"Hahahaha!! A group of old men!" The aunt in the corner spat immediately, "Look at you bunch of dead bastards! If only my family's Jiaming was more or less the same!"

"This fat woman is selling her son again!"

"What's the matter?!"

The diners started bickering half-seriously and half-jokingly. The boss Lao Chen just smiled and buried himself in kneading the dough.

At this time, my wife took out a handkerchief and began to wipe Lao Chen's forehead. At this time, Lao Chen smiled slightly. Although the bun shop is not big, it has been in business for decades. As for wiping sweat like his wife, it has been wiping for decades.

"Pianchu, the buns for the guests at the first table have been packed." Lao Chen called to stop the little girl who was pouring tea.

"OK."

The little girl responded and quickly sent the packed things over.

At this time, a new customer came to the store.

A relatively fair young man—a young man, looked at the little girl with a little surprise, and the little girl also smiled slightly after being taken aback, "We meet again."

"Yeah, I was a little surprised." Luo Qiu nodded.

He didn't expect to see this feathered butterfly demon here, and it seemed to be working in this steamed stuffed bun shop. Xiaodie Yao's dress is very simple, like a girl in the mountain.

But these did not conceal the beauty of Flying Plump—seeing this butterfly demon again, what Boss Luo thought was that it seemed that when she was reborn from the chrysalis, she was quite successful in shaping her shape.

"You... just came to see me?" Pian Chuan looked at Luo Qiu curiously.

Due to the occasional encounter, Die Yao easily had the feeling that Luo Qiu came here just for her—besides, the club itself is a mysterious place, and it didn't seem difficult to know where she was.

Luo Qiu shook his head and said, "I should be such a regular customer."

Pianli tilted her head in bewilderment.

The boss, Old Chen, shouted at this moment: "Luo Qiu! I haven't seen you for a few days, and you came all the way to buy buns?"

Luo Qiu nodded towards the boss and his wife, then looked at Die Yao and said, "I lived here when I was young."

"Then sit down."

Butterfly Yao seemed to feel a sense of relief, and greeted Luo Qiu to sit down. Old Chen said at this moment: "Luo Qiu, I'll make you steamed stuffed buns right away, as usual!"

"Okay." Luo Qiu replied.

He sat alone in a corner, as if he was in his own world, took out a thick book from his backpack, and began to read.

When the buns came up, Luo Qiu ate one while it was hot, and then continued to read. The three buns in this basket took about half an hour to eat.

The butterfly demon thought that Luo Qiu would leave after eating, but he didn't expect him to just sit like that, drinking tea and reading a book by himself, just like an old man.

"He's like this, he will leave whenever he wants to. It's okay." Old Chen said lightly, "I've grown up with this kid, he's a very quiet person."

"Did you really watch him grow up?" Pian Chu asked curiously.

The club she knew... But it has always been circulated in the circle of monsters.

The somewhat perplexed Butterfly Demon was doing her work silently, but she would also peek at Luo Qiu who had been studying quietly.

After some time, almost all the guests were gone, and it was almost half past ten in the morning. Old Chen shouted at this moment: "Pianli, tidy up and prepare to close the door!"

"Okay, but..." Pian Che glanced at Luo Qiu who hadn't left yet, and seemed to be a little hesitant.

Old Chen chuckled, let Pianli continue to work, walked up to Luo Qiu with a small teapot and sat down.

"Master, why is there an extra person in the store?" Luo Qiu asked suddenly.

Old Chen smiled and said: "You mean Pianju? This child is so pitiful. When I was cleaning up that morning, my wife watched her pick up the things at the back door to eat, and the clothes on her body were also in tatters. The old woman asked her about it. Many don't understand, and asked her if she has any family members, she said no, and said she couldn't remember the past."

Old Chen took a sip of the small teapot, "I don't think she has anything on her. She is natural and simple. She doesn't understand many things and has amnesia. I'm afraid she was tricked out of the mountains or something, so I'll keep her temporarily. This girl is also hardworking, and she didn't want to live in vain, so she came down to help."

"But it's a coincidence that this baby is also named Luo." Lao Chen shook his head and said: "Luo Pian, Luo Pian, this name has a special taste when you read it. Girls in the mountains will never choose such a nice name. I'm afraid it might be the daughter of a rich family."

Hearing that the butterfly demon used Luo's surname, Luo Qiu subconsciously turned towards the butterfly demon who was cleaning the glass outside the door, and found that the butterfly demon had been peeking over. Now that he saw Luo Qiu's eyes, he hurriedly wiped the glass on the other side, presumably he heard the conversation here.

Youkai's hearing... probably not bad, right

"By the way, Luo Qiu, do you think there is any way to help Pianiao?" Old Chen smiled and said, "You young people, your brains are much faster than us old guys."

Luo Qiu thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Master, can I have a few words with you alone?"

Old Chen was taken aback, but at this moment he saw Luo Qiu flipping open the thick book in his hand, and on a certain page, there was a black lacquered card.

When Lao Chen saw it, his face suddenly changed slightly, and he looked at this old neighbor who had been raised since he was a child in disbelief.

His lips trembled slightly, "You..."

Luo Qiu said softly: "Master, close the door."
