Chapter 235 Disguise
Soon another dish of sugar was delivered. A little more than before, but not much more.
Everyone didn't care. These sweets were all loved by children. Even Xue Ting was considered a child, so it was enough for four people.
Yunchengzi and Ma Daoye both waved their hands and refused to eat the rice dumplings, and began to eat the food and wine that were served.
What they want is the best table in the inn.
Not for anything else, just because we have been traveling for several days and everyone has not eaten or drank well. Now we need to make up for it.
Furthermore, no matter how simple they usually are, compared with ordinary people, they are still well-clothed and well-fed.
Just like the Chang family, every morning, there are staple food, soup, eggs, meat buns and side dishes.
An ordinary family can have a bowl of multi-grain porridge, half a piece of steamed flour cake, and a piece of old pickles, which is considered good.
Anyway, it is dry and thin.
The poor family was just like those in the villages on Long Baoer's fiefdom. Even for dinner, they ate wild vegetables and the like.
So they asked for the best banquet, thinking that it would have vegetables and meat so that the children would be willing to eat.
I didn't expect that when the table arrived, it was really good. There were ten dishes. There is also chicken, duck, and fish.
Looking at this table of delicious food, Ma Daoye ordered two more bottles of wine.
The two Taoist masters were drinking wine, while Long Baoer and Chang Yi each had a rice dumpling, which was delicious when dipped in sugar.
Qinglang looked at his junior brothers and sisters and shouted, "Keep your mouth small and eat slowly. This stuff is sticky!"
Qinglang and Xue Ting were about the same age. One of them looked at his younger brother and sister, the other looked at his junior brother and sister, with similar expressions.
The two masters over there look like their old father.
Seeing his younger brother and sister each eating a rice dumpling, Xue Ting reached out and took the rice dumplings away and put them aside, "Okay, let's have a good meal."
Qinglang took off the chicken legs from the bowl of stewed chicken on the table, and gave each of his junior brothers and sisters one piece.
Xue Ting was busy putting the dishes that his brothers and sisters loved into their bowls. Especially for fish, be careful to remove the spines inside.
The weather here in Yanzhou is warm and there are many mountains and rivers.
So there are a lot of aquatic products here. In addition to the braised fish in the middle, there is also a plate of fried small fish on the table.
The strips are only slightly longer than your fingers. They are fried to a golden color and even the fish bones are crispy. They are the best dish to go with wine.
Long Baoer couldn't hold it properly with chopsticks, so he started eating the small fried fish with his hands.
Fortunately, before eating, Xue Ting had already wiped her hands carefully with a hot towel.
At Long Baoer's feet, there was Ying, who was also eating and drinking on the ground.
Since he met Long Baoer, his ability to shrink has become more and more silky, and now he is as thin as chopsticks.
But when eating, the bowl was not much smaller than the washbasin. It was a bowl of rice that Xue Ting specially asked the waiter to bring. It was poured into Ying's special rice bowl, with broth, stew, and some vegetables.
Sakura's chopstick-thick body was stuck in the rice bowl, and she opened her mouth wide. In an instant, one-third of the rice in the bowl was reduced. I don't know how he swallowed it.
Long Baoer gnawed on a big chicken drumstick, and ate various meats and vegetables that his brother had given him. He put down his chopsticks when his belly was bulging, "Second brother, Long Baoer is full."
"Okay." Xue Ting carefully wiped Long Baoer's face and mouth clean. "When brother finishes eating, I will take you out to play."
"Okay!" Long Baoer was happy.
He slipped out of his chair and watched Sakura eat.
Next to me, Chang Yi hasn't finished eating yet. He is a few years older than Long Baoer, and is now eight years old. Sitting there, chewing slowly, he looked a bit like a young man from an aristocratic family.
Yunchengzi and Ma Daoye only drank wine and ate vegetables. At this time, they had almost eaten. They wiped their mouths and stood up, "You guys can rest if you want. If you want to play, it's up to you. The two of us are going to Huangshi City to find out the news. I’m afraid I’ll have to come back later today.”
Xue Ting and Qing Lang nodded in agreement and sent the two Taoists away.
Long Baoer waited until Ying was full and Chang Yi was almost done eating, then he went to shake Xue Ting's arm, "Second brother, when are we going?"
"Let's go now." Xue Ting stood up and called the waiter from the window on the second floor to come up and clean up the mess on the table. At the same time, he changed Long Baoer into clothes that were convenient for going out.
They took a shower first when they came to the inn, and even Long Baoer was helped by the hostess to take one.
At this time, everyone was completely different from when they first entered the city.
I looked a little down and out before.
At this time, the two young boys, one older and one younger, looked energetic and outstanding in appearance.
Needless to say, Xue Ting can attract the attention of men and women passing by even when he looks down and out.
Qinglang became a monk since childhood and followed Yun Chengzi. He looked upright and handsome, and had a cold temperament unique to cultivators that was not in the world.
Although Chang Yi is young, both his parents have good looks. He himself has the blood of the fox clan, he is young, and there is an indistinguishable beauty between male and female when he turns his eyes.
Not to mention Long Baoer, the little girl is a born beauty. Although she is too young, she looks cute in the ice and snow.
She was too thin before, but now she has flesh on her face, and her arms and legs look chubby. Even her hair, which was originally a little yellow, was given a prescription by Ning's to replenish her body. After washing her hair, it became black and thick, making her look even cuter.
"My sister is so pretty." Xue Ting praised her heartily.
Next to him, Qing Lang and Chang Yi both nodded vigorously with determination.
Sister Long Baoer is so cute.
What should they do if they don't want others to see such a beautiful sister?
The few people had a tacit understanding, looked at each other, and asked the waiter to go to the street and buy them something to cover their appearance.
The waiter looked at them and was a little surprised, "You guys have such outstanding looks, why don't you want people to see them? If I could look like them, my shopkeeper would put me in the inn There are customers at the door."
Xue Ting and others laughed when they heard this.
Although the waiter was puzzled, he went down and bought it for them.
"Guys, what do you think?" The waiter came in with a bunch of things. "Wearing a mask in broad daylight is a bit scary now, so I bought this one that covers half of my face. It just so happens that we have some during the Dragon Boat Festival here. Wearing this half-face mask.”
Xue Ting took it and looked at it carefully, then threw a piece of silver to the waiter with a satisfied smile, "That's it!"
