"Get up quickly, let's go somewhere." The two of them got up in a daze and walked outside. There were only scattered shops selling breakfast. "Miss, are you sure that I have already gotten up if you go so early?"
She packed a few steamed buns and bowls of porridge from the shop. "How will you know if you don't try it?" Since the lady said so, they had no choice but to follow.
The old man’s home is in a small town a few miles away. It is a simple bungalow made of clay tiles. It has a tile-roofed house and a chicken coop with vegetables planted in the fence. “Old man, old man, I brought you breakfast.”
The old man had just woken up and hadn't made breakfast yet. He was standing outside in a daze and unexpectedly saw her shouting outside. He reluctantly asked her to come in. "I said, girl, why are you so stubborn? I am an old man with no companions and no offspring.
You don’t need that much money, and my family’s secret recipe will not be passed on to others.”
"Old man, I brought you breakfast specially today." She neatly set the dishes for him. Previously, she wanted to use the old man's secret recipe to achieve her wish. The moment she saw the old man in a daze just now made her think of parenting.
My grandma grew up. Every time I go back from school, I see my grandma stretching her neck to look at her return from a distance.
"Girl, I won't agree to your matter. I'll take your breakfast back too."
Lan'er couldn't stand it anymore. The young lady was already so humble. How could this old man be like this? "Why are you talking to our young lady like this?"
"Lan'er, don't be rude to your elders."
"I am just such an old man. If you can't stand it, just don't bother me." The old man was dressed in a patched cloth, and his expression was neither humble nor arrogant. This made Zhan Meixiang even more determined to get him. She now feels that he is better than the secret recipe.
It is even more precious. A person who is not tempted by money and is not afraid of power will definitely not go wrong if you leave the matter to him.
"Old man, don't be angry. The little girl can't speak. Come, sit down and try to see if these things suit your appetite. I don't know what you like to eat. I thought some porridge would be good for the elderly's stomach, so I bought it.
If you like something to eat, I will bring it to you next time." She carefully placed the things in front of him and let the porridge cool for a while before bringing it to him.
Xi Lan and Xi Zi were dumbfounded. This was the first time they saw a young lady being so attentive to a person.
The old man didn't change his expression because of her kindness, and his face was still lifeless. "I say, girl, don't work on me, an old man who is about to die. I will never pass on the secret recipe. The ancestral precepts cannot be violated.
."
"Old man, I admit that when I first came here, I wanted to be courteous and ask for the secret recipe, but now I just want to have a meal with you. Don't worry too much, come and see if it suits your taste, Lan'er and Zi'er are not here either
Outsiders, please sit down and eat together!"
Ya'er woke up early to see if Xiang'er was really okay. "Xiang'er, Xiang'er, have you gotten up? Can I come in?" But after knocking for a long time, no one answered, and the door was opened violently.
, there was no one inside. "Brother, brother is not good. Xiang'er is gone again."
Yu Xuan, who was still half asleep, suddenly woke up when he heard this sentence. "Speak more clearly and slowly."
"I...I just wanted to see if Xiang'er was okay, but I found that there was no one inside."
