The sun was shining brightly, the wind was warm and smooth, and an inconspicuous carriage was driving smoothly on the empty official road. The carriage driver driving the horse was dressed in coarse linen and wore a torn straw hat. His body was stooped. From time to time, he raised his weak arms and waved his whip.
Driving two gray horses, they ran leisurely on the empty and deserted official road.
The simple and inconspicuous carriage is so rough that people can ignore it. However, who would have thought that the carriage is equipped with soft couches, tables, tea, tea and cakes. Xue Xichen is lazily leaning on the soft couch with her eyes closed and concentrating, with Feng Qingge leaning on her back.
The carriage driver was holding a scroll, while Leng Junyi sat quietly and meditated with breathless concentration. Xiao Liuyue bent her left leg and leaned against the window with one hand supporting her chin, admiring the scenery along the way, silently lost in thought.
Suddenly, Xue Xichen turned over and sat up. With sleepy eyes, she mumbled in a daze, "I'm hungry!"
The three people who were doing their own things came to their senses at the same time. Xiao Liuyue approached Xue Xichen, Feng Qingge took out the delicate cakes from the lunch box, and Leng Junyi picked up the teapot and poured a cup of fragrant tea and handed it to her.
Xiao Liuyue said softly: "Xichen, if you are hungry, just eat some pastries to cushion your stomach. Once you get out of the official road, there should be a store not far ahead."
Gulu...
Xue Xichen touched her hungry, flat belly, pursed her red lips, and mumbled dissatisfiedly, "I want to eat hot and fragrant steamed buns..."
Feng Qingge was slightly absent-minded after hearing this. He couldn't help but remember that Xue Meitong used to like to eat Xiao Long Bao. She always said that the fragrant and hot Xiao Long Bao was small, exquisite and beautiful. When eaten, the lingering fragrance left an endless aftertaste in the mouth, which was better than any delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Both are a hundred times more delicious.
Unexpectedly, Xue Xichen also likes to eat Xiao Long Bao...
Leng Junyi said: "There will be a store ten miles away from the official road. Let's take a rest and have lunch before we hit the road."
"Yes!" Xiao Liuyue nodded and said to Xue Xichen with concern, "Xichen, please bear with me. When you get out of the official road, senior brother will buy you hot and fragrant steamed buns to eat!"
“Xiao Long Bao…delicious Xiao Long Bao…”
Xue Xi was already three feet tall as she thought about it. She nodded vigorously and said excitedly with bright eyes: "Yes! I want to eat hot and fragrant Xiao Long Bao!"
"If you are hungry, eat some pastries first to satisfy your hunger."
Xue Xichen refused Feng Qingge’s kindness, “I want to save my stomach for hot and fragrant steamed buns!”
Xiao Liuyue couldn't help but laugh at Xue Xichen's answer. In fact, he had never been able to understand Xue Xichen's love for Xiao Long Bao. There were countless delicacies in the world, but Xue Xichen believed that apart from Xiao Long Bao, there was nothing worthy of her attention.
In eyes.
…
Sure enough, as Leng Junyi said, after driving for ten miles and leaving the official road, a simple shop owner could be seen with the flag fluttering in the wind. Feng Bi stopped the carriage, Leng Junyi jumped out from the curtain, followed closely by Feng Qing.
Ge and Xiao Liuyue. Xiao Liuyue got off the carriage, turned around and reached out to help Xue Xichen down. Xue Xichen was so hungry that she was dizzy, her whole body was limp and weak, her head was twitching, she had a confused expression as if she hadn't woken up, and her eyes were blurred.
He muttered, "Xiao Long Bao... my Xiao Long Bao..."
"Okay! Your xiaolongbao is here!"
Xiao Liuyue shook her head with fondness in her eyes. He held Xue Xichen's arm, followed Feng Qingge and Leng Junyi, walked into the store, and found a clean place to sit down. Immediately, a store owner came to greet him.
With a smile as bright as a flower, he asked: "Guests, what would you like to eat?"
“Xiao Long Bao!”
Xue Xichen answered without hesitation, with a fierce expression on her face, "If you don't give me the dumplings, I will fight you to the death."
"Yes yes yes yes! Xiao Long Bao! Xiao Long Bao!"
Xiao Liuyue rubbed Xue Xichen's hair and said helplessly to the store owner: "Bring two cages of xiaolongbao and let her eat them all at once!"
"Okay, okay!" The store owner responded quickly and asked with a smile: "Do you guys want anything else?"
"A bowl of braised noodles and a plate of braised beef with soy sauce."
Xiao Liuyue turned to Feng Qingge, Leng Junyi and Feng Bi who followed, "What do you want?"
Leng Junyi said: "Here is a bowl of pork rib noodles and add two eggs."
Feng Qingge said: "Bring me a bowl of scallion-flavored mutton noodles."
Feng Bi said: "A bowl of roasted goose."
"Okay! Wait a minute, everyone!"
The shop owner turned to the kitchen and was busy. Xue Xichen lay limply on the table, looking like she was about to die, and kept muttering, "My Xiao Long Bao... Xiao Long Bao... Xiao Long Bao..."
Xiao Liuyue had no choice but to rub Xue Xichen's hair, "Get up! Your steamed dumplings are here!"
Before she finished speaking, the store owner indeed brought two baskets of hot and fragrant steamed dumplings. Xue Xichen instantly came back to life as if she had been given a shot of chicken blood. She widened her eyes, sat up, and looked at the steaming steamed buns.
Longbao's eyes were shining, as if he had picked up a rare treasure, and his body was trembling with excitement, "Wow - you're welcome! Let's start first!"
As soon as her fingertips touched the steamed dumplings, they were immediately so hot that she flinched and swung her fingers wildly, moaning in pain, "Wow! It's so hot! It's so hot! It's so hot!"
Xiao Liuyue grabbed Xue Xichen's red-hot fingers and said distressedly: "Of course freshly baked ones are hot, don't be so anxious, wait until they are cold before eating!"
"Well..." Xue Xichen felt aggrieved and let out a dissatisfied groan like a cat. She continued to lie on the table and stare at the steamed dumplings in a daze, with a bitter and resentful expression of "I won't be allowed to eat them."
Seeing Xue Xichen's childish temperament, Xiao Liuyue was helpless and helpless.
Braised noodles, pork ribs noodles, mutton noodles and roasted goose were served one after another. The heat of the steamed buns gradually dropped, and Xue Xichen was finally able to eat them. Xue Xichen happily grabbed the steamed buns and bit them happily,
With an expression of great enjoyment, the people eating the noodles seemed to think that these xiaolongbao were really the best in the world and a delicacy in the world.
"Yeah! It's delicious! It's delicious! It's so delicious!"
Xue Xichen bit her xiaolongbao happily, feeling that the future in her life was so beautiful. She unceremoniously took the two xiaolongbao into her belly, and the other men couldn't help but sigh, this girl
It looks small and exquisite, but I didn’t expect it to eat so much.
After eating and drinking enough, Xue Xichen touched her round belly, roared happily, and moaned a little, "I'm so full... ugh... I don't want to move anymore..."
"I blame you for being greedy. Who made you eat so much!"
Xiao Liuyue scratched Xue Xichen's little nose lovingly, her eyes filled with helplessness.
Xue Xichen pursed her red lips and muttered in reply: "It's delicious...it's delicious, so just eat a little more..." Her voice gradually became lower, her eyes flickered, and she remembered that she didn't seem to have eaten too much.
A little bit.……
"Really?"
Xiao Liuyue narrowed her eyes, revealing a dangerous light.
"Ahem!" Xue Xichen coughed in embarrassment and raised her hand to swear, "It's really just a little bit... Then I accidentally added a little bit more..."
"Um?"
Dangerous light is better.
Xue Xichen slumped her shoulders and had to admit, "Okay! I admit, I ate too much!"
Seeing Xiao Liuyue and Xue Xichen going back and forth, laughing and talking, which was almost like flirting, Feng Qingge's chest felt tight, her face was as heavy as water, and she didn't say a word.
