Chapter 33: Gain Weight
Gu Jingyun is a child after all. He has never even visited the market before. He only knows how lively the market is from his uncle and books. Now, seeing with his own eyes, people at the market are connecting with people, and booth after booth. Go to the crowd.
Zhang Liulang seldom came to the county town due to his young age. This was only the third time, so his eyes were glued to the booth and he couldn’t get out.
His face turned pale, and he hurriedly pushed aside the crowd to look for it, while shouting loudly, “Gu Jingyun, sister Baolu!”
Gu Jingyun stood behind him and said quietly: “Stop shouting, turn around and lower your head.”
Zhang Liulang turned around and lowered his head before meeting the two little dots.
“Even if someone is lost, you should look around first, and then rush forward without even glancing at you. You lost what wasn’t lost.” Gu Jingyun taught him a lesson.
Zhang Liulang scratched his head and muttered, “I’m not worried about you yet?”
Gu Jingyun ignored him, looked left and right, and said, “We’re hungry, let’s find a place to have dinner.”
Zhang Liulang immediately said: “I brought dry food. If there is more, I will give you some.”
“I don’t want it,” Gu Jingyun said with a wrinkled nose: “The dry food is so hard that it can smash people to death. It is said that there are many delicious things in the county town. I’m going to eat it.”
Zhang Liulang opened his mouth and said, “You are so rich!”
Gu Jingyun raised his chin proudly, and said arrogantly: “Okay, lead the way, Baolu and I will invite you to eat.”
“But I don’t know where there is a restaurant, and I don’t know which restaurant has delicious food.” Zhang Liulang followed everyone to the county to sell goods directly to the store. Afterwards, he visited the small stalls and ate dry food. Once, the foster father took them to a bowl of wontons on the roadside. If you ask him where there is good food in a restaurant, he really doesn’t know.
Gu Jingyun knew that he couldn’t count on him. Before he came, he made up his mind to try the dishes of the county restaurant. Anyway, their family is not bad for this amount of money, but if they can’t find a place, how can they eat.
Li Baolu couldn’t help but smile when he saw his eyes were gone. A child is a child. No matter how many books he reads, he doesn’t know the tricks if he has never experienced it.
Li Baolu looked around, dragged Gu Jingyun to the store next to her, and directly asked the shop assistant who greeted customers at the door, “Little brother, do you know where the biggest and best restaurant in our county is?”
The shop assistant gave a “yo”, looked down at the three children, and saw that the two leaders had good temperament. Although the clothes were plain, it was rare, and there were jade pendants hanging around their waists. Only this one showed that they were not ordinary people. children.
As for Zhang Liulang, who was following behind, he considered him to be the servant of the two children, and with just a glance, he focused on Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu.
Adhering to the idea of being kind to others, the second shopkeeper raised a smile and said enthusiastically to the two children, “Young Master and Miss are going to Tianxianglou? From here, take the first intersection and turn left, walk to Qianmen Street and follow Come on, as long as you two see two big Pixiu standing in front of the door, it will be Tianxianglou.”
“Then besides Tianxianglou, where else is there any good food in this county?” Li Baolu smiled embarrassedly at him, “My brother and I are in the city for the first time, and we are not very familiar with the city.”
The second shopkeeper looked at their ages, took it for granted, and said kindly: “Then the young lady and the young master can go to Wanfu Building. His family’s dishes are also good. In our county, this is the only place in Tianxianglou. It is not difficult to find, Tianxiang. It’s diagonally opposite the building.”
said again: “That street is full of restaurants and restaurants, so it’s convenient if you want to go to another place to eat.”
Li Baolu thanked him and dragged Gu Jingyun to Qianmen Street.
Zhang Liulang was busy following him, and he persuaded: “It must cost a lot of money to eat in that kind of restaurant. We can just find a stall on the roadside.” He touched the copper plate in his pocket. , This is secretly given to him by the elder brother before going out. Let him follow Gu Jingyun more generously. Don’t lose face of the Zhang family, but I’m afraid that the money can’t even buy a bowl of rice in the restaurant.
Li Baolu saw his blushing face and knew his embarrassment, so he smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter, Brother Jingyun is rich, we will eat the big family today.”
“Big family?” Zhang Liulang was confused.
Gu Jingyun rolled his eyes and said, “I am a rich person like me, can’t I understand the words and still can’t connect the next sentence?”
He has never heard the word “big family”, but this is very simple, shouldn’t he understand it right away?
Zhang Liulang directly skipped Gu Jingyun and led the way, “I’ve been to Qianmen Street, I’ll take you there.”
Gu Jingyun pulled Li Baolu to follow, and whispered, “Let’s try it first, and if it’s delicious, we’ll bring some to my uncle and the others when we come home the day after tomorrow.”
Tianxiang Tower is really easy to recognize. It occupies the best position on Qianmen Street. The front of the building is bustling and many people come in and out.
Gu Jingyun pulled Li Baolu to stand in front of the building to have a look, and decisively pulled her over to Wanfu Building, which was diagonally opposite.
The people queuing to eat in the hall of Tianxianglou have already lined up for two long lines.
It’s just a meal, and he doesn’t know how it tastes. He is so hungry alone, but he doesn’t have the time to wait, and he has to go to the night market.
Wanfu Building is less crowded, and there is no noise from Tianxiang Building. Three people are greeted warmly by the second shopkeeper when they enter the door.
Xiao Er saw the three children, his smile was slightly stiff, but he still enthusiastically led people into the hall, and asked, “Do the guests want to drink tea or eat?”
“Eat,” Gu Jingyun stopped in front of the stairs and pointed to the second floor: “I want to eat there.”
The shop assistant took the opportunity to glance at Gu Jingyun’s clothes and saw that he was wearing plain clothes. Although he was wearing half-old clothes, the material was good, and there was a lustrous white jade hanging around his waist. He invited people upstairs and said with a smile on his face: “It’s a coincidence that there is a seat upstairs by the window, and the little guest officers can enjoy the scenery while eating.”
The second floor has a wide view and fewer people, which is indeed much better than the hall.
The three chose a seat by the window and sat down. When they turned their heads, they could see the market on Qianmen Street, which was very lively.
It was the first time that Gu Jingyun saw so many people. Even if he pretended to be calm, his eyes were still sparkling and excited.
He was in a good mood, and even brought a smile to the shopkeeper, “How many signature dishes do you have here, and what are the prices? If they are suitable, give us a few dishes.”
Li Baolu propped her chin and watched him order food. Although Gu Jingyun was inexperienced, he was very thoughtful. It was almost impossible for the shop assistant to fool him into ordering expensive and unaffordable dishes.
Under Gu Jingyun’s piercing eyes, they ordered four dishes that were considered to be relatively good in Wanfu Lou—except for one tofu, which were all meaty ones.
The dish came up, Zhang Liulang’s eyes straightened, Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu also had high hopes for them.
So the three children brought out the chopsticks together, Zhang Liulang’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t get down when his eyes were glued to the dish. It was really delicious!
Gu Jingyun frowned, tasted it carefully and commented: “It’s only slightly better than Aunt’s craftsmanship.”
Li Baolu shook her head directly, “It’s far worse than my grandmother’s.”
Zhang Liulang couldn’t help but rolled his eyes at them, pulled the vegetable chops directly into his bowl, and said, “If you don’t eat it, let me eat it.”
He had never eaten such a good dish in his life, and they even disliked it.
Li Baolu and Gu Jingyun didn’t dislike it, they just felt that Wanfu Tower was famous, but they only had this ability. No wonder they were crushed by Tianxiang Tower and couldn’t move.
I just don’t know how the dishes in Tianxianglou are.
Gu Jingyun, who has the potential to be a foodie, said directly: “Tomorrow we will go to Tianxianglou to eat and see.”
Li Baolu nodded his head in agreement, Zhang Liulang just buried his head in hard work and couldn’t even speak.
Gu Jingyun didn’t ask him for his opinion, he directly took some chopsticks for Li Baolu and said, “Eat it quickly, otherwise Zhang Liulang will eat it up.”
Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu knew from childhood that “you can’t eat enough”, so after Li Baolu confirmed that she was full, she could only drool while watching the dishes on the table.
Gu Jingyun was only 70% full. He was not in good health, and he couldn’t be hungry or full. Otherwise, he was either weak or had a bloated stomach. Therefore, most of the dishes on the table ended up in Zhang Liulang’s stomach. Straight up his belly round.
Li Baolu looked worried and asked, “Will it explode?”
Gu Jingyun glanced at it and said, “No, but it will break.”
Zhang Liulang patted his stomach and said, “I’m in good health, and I’m not afraid to eat another table. You think it’s like you, and it’s like a cat when you eat a dish.”
After a pause, he pointed at Li Baolu and said, “No, sister Baolu doesn’t count. She eats a lot, so it’s no wonder she’s so fat.”
Li Baolu’s face was full of black lines, she pulled Gu Jingyun and turned around and said angrily, “I’m growing now, it’s not fat, it’s sturdy.”
Gu Jingyun: “It’s even worse.”
Li Baolu:…
Zhang Liulang: “Hahahaha…”
Li Baolu angrily walked in front, Gu Jingyun hurriedly followed after paying the bill, while teasing her: “Even if you want to lose weight, don’t be in a hurry until you’re full, go slow.”
Li Baolu put on his hips and said, “Don’t say I’m fat, I’m so cute.”
The chubby, white and tender three-year-old puppet pinched her waist fiercely in the street and said that she was not fat. Gu Jingyun didn’t feel the fierceness, but found it funny.
The crowd of onlookers will also smile when they see it, and someone kindly said, “Yeah, the little girl looks good when she is fat, but she doesn’t need to lose weight.”
“It’s a blessing to be able to eat, who would say a little girl is fat?”
There was a smile in Gu Jingyun’s eyes, and he stepped forward and took her hand to comfort him: “I won’t say anything, let’s go, I’ll take you to eat roadside snacks, didn’t you say you want to eat candied chestnuts?” It is good to raise people to be white and fat.
