In the teahouse, a waiter with a white towel hanging on his shoulders held a wooden tray and delivered a pot of tea to the table with a long tone.
"Three guests, please use it slowly. The store also sells some refreshment fruits. If you need it, you can call me at any time!"
The waiter took advantage of the situation and made a series of sales, then took another look at Pang Xiaodong, who was still nearly a person tall and sitting on the stool, and left quickly with a shock that had not completely dissipated.
There were a total of six tables in the teahouse. The front hall and the back kitchen were separated by a curtain. Even so, the heat wave coming from inside could still be faintly felt.
Apparently, there is more than one stove boiling hot water inside.
The shopkeeper was leaning against the bar, holding a pen in one hand and an abacus in the other, but he didn't move for a long time.
Like other customers, he always peeked at Pang Xiaodong overtly and covertly, with curiosity and shock on his face. It was obvious that he had never seen such a tall and strong person before.
What Shunzi does on weekdays is not a public business. He is used to going out in the dark and making a fortune in silence. Now he is suddenly being watched by so many eyes. Even if he is accompanied by comments, he just feels uncomfortable all over.
.
The buttocks seemed to have hair growing on them, and they were constantly twisting and turning.
Among the three people, only Gao Ning remained calm and composed.
How can I be an unscrupulous time traveler when I can't bear the slightest glance? It's so young!
He picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of jasmine tea.
I don't know if the tea culture in this world is a bit strange, or if it's the sensory enhancement caused by the environment, but Gao Ning felt that today's jasmine tea was unusually sweet.
Diagonally across the street, a woman wearing a coarse cloth skirt stood behind a cloth stall, doing business as usual.
She is quick with her hands and feet and treats people kindly. Regardless of whether she wants to buy something or not, as long as she comes to ask, she will treat her equally.
In addition, her stall has been running for a while and has a certain reputation in the alley, so there are some customers every day.
Next to the stall, the landlord, Mrs. Cai, was guarding a stove and selling some food.
After all, this is the capital, the pace of life is a little faster, and there are not too many people who are too lazy to cook.
Besides, she lives on the land, occupying a room and sleeping on the bed. She did some small business today just to pass the time.
"Here it comes! Your big bowl of catechu!"
At this time, the waiter came over again carrying a wooden tray. Inside the tray were two large black pottery bowls the size of human heads, filled with steaming tea.
Seeing that he was finally served, Shunzi quickly stretched out his hand to bring down the tea.
Pang Xiaodong also breathed a sigh of relief.
His hands were now like bear paws, and he was holding the tea cup as if it were a toy, with less than a sip of water in it.
He also couldn't tolerate jasmine tea or anything like that. Instead, he felt more comfortable with a large bowl of tea.
The waiter bent down and was about to leave when he was suddenly stopped by Gao Ning.
"etc!"
He bought a dozen copper coins, pointed to the vegetable lady selling things opposite, and said: "What is that for sale? It tastes so good. Let's make a toothpaste first!"
The waiter took a look and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you have a good nose. That's Granny Cai, a master at making braised meat. Especially the braised large intestine, which is both chewy and delicious. One bite will leave you with endless aftertaste."
Shunzi's eyes widened at what he said.
Gao Ning and Pang Xiaodong looked at him in surprise: "What you said is so amazing, isn't it?"
"I'm not flattering you, but it's really good. I won't say much more. I'll just buy it and you'll know after you try it!"
The waiter seemed to be very confident in Granny Cai's craftsmanship. After saying this, he collected the coins and trotted all the way to the other side.
I don’t know how to communicate with the old lady. The person on the other side nodded repeatedly, then quickly took out a piece of oil paper, opened the lid of the pot, used a clip made of bamboo, picked out a lot of things inside, and put them away.
After cutting it up on the chopping board, I wrapped it up one after another.
Finally, I took a small hemp rope and tied the paper package with a cross knot.
The waiter ran back and put the things on the table with a smile.
"Guest, you didn't specify, so I just randomly chose some large intestine and pork head meat. It's the most popular food at Grandma Cai's place. Please use it while you are three guests!"
After saying that, the waiter left.
Gao Ning tore open the paper bag with some curiosity, and it turned out to be steaming hot and fragrant. He took the chopsticks from the bamboo tube next to him, poured a piece of fat and thin pig head meat into his mouth.
His teeth closed up and down, and a strange and sweet braised flavor filled his mouth.
This taste was different from any braised food he had tasted before. It seemed to have some kind of local flavor and was surprisingly delicious.
Pang Xiaodong also took a bite out of curiosity. He was now huge, and the large piece of meat in his mouth was just a matter of puckering his lips.
Fortunately, the two of them didn't come here just to fill their stomachs. This little food was enough to taste.
Now I felt that my status was a bit low, and I was embarrassed to use my chopsticks, but these two people ate delicious food, and he was not a rule-abiding person. After swallowing a few times, he couldn't help it anymore and caught him too.
I threw it into my mouth together and immediately smiled.
A few people were eating braised food and drinking tea, killing time little by little.
Shunzi didn't know what was going on. She was eating, drinking and looking great.
Gao Ning was calm and composed. He did not hide anything. While killing time, drinking tea, he looked at the cloth seller opposite him from time to time.
In the end, Pang Xiaodong couldn't bear it anymore.
"Lu Ren, are we just waiting like this? Shouldn't we take the initiative to contact the people we can find?"
"Don't worry! Everyone has found you, why are you anxious?"
Gao Ning picked up the tea and took a sip: "Do you think she is married now?"
Pang Xiaodong reacted.
That's right! I almost forgot that Zeng Jing is not necessarily alone, but behind her there is an actress husband, Zhang Renfeng.
That's an old cunt.
Zeng Jing's disguise is not bad. She has changed her appearance and even become a completely different person.
But Zhang Renfeng still found her, and even used various means to increase her favor and even married her.
This move is simply amazing.
The undercover agent went to bed, and then used various disguises to test. The suicide of the enemy who killed his father was entirely up to his whim.
This is his brilliance.
Throughout the entire plot of Jianyu, Zhang Renfeng can be described as the master manipulator behind the scenes.
If it wasn't for his deliberate mischief, how could Xiao Yu be exposed?
Putting his wife on the bright side attracted the attention of the whole Black Rock, while he was observing secretly, ready to take action at any time.
Use your small power to destroy the entire Black Stone, and finally complete your revenge.
From the moment the so-called Moro's body arrived in the capital, Black Stone's every move was part of his calculations.
Naturally, it is better to be more cautious with such people.
The three of them were eating casually and drinking tea for a while, when suddenly it started raining heavily.
Pedestrians on the street were deserted and the bustling streets soon became deserted.
Zeng Jing was hurriedly packing her things. At this moment, a figure ran quickly from a distance. When he approached, without saying a word, he helped pack up the cloth and carry it into the house.
Zeng Jing showed no signs of surprise, but naturally ordered the people to carry it.
The man obeyed the order, and the two of them cooperated very well. Soon the stall was packed up and disappeared from the sight of Gao Ning and the others.
"You're married!" Gao Ning said calmly.
Pang Xiaodong nodded and said nothing.
He doesn't think it's a big deal if the hero and heroine get married. He's not Black Stone. He doesn't want their lives. He just wants to get information about Li Guishou from them. What does it matter if they don't get married?
Shunzi looked at Gao Ning in confusion, obviously not knowing where he came from.
Seeing that no one explained, Shunzi didn't care, scratched his head and continued eating meat.
Nothing smells like meat!
"Boy! Bring me some umbrellas!"
Gao Ning greeted the waiter and threw out a small piece of broken silver.
The waiter responded quickly and ran over holding three brand new bamboo umbrellas.
Gao Ning curiously looked at the bamboo umbrella with a grease cover. It looked exactly like the one in the costume drama.
"Let's go, it's time to pay a visit!"
The three of them got up, each holding an umbrella, walked out of the teahouse, and walked directly to the small courtyard diagonally opposite.
…
In the room, Zeng Jing was busy with her head down.
Today's fabrics are afraid of water. After being exposed to rain, they must be dried as soon as possible, otherwise all subsequent problems will easily occur.
It's just wrinkles, just iron it and it'll be fine.
If mold spots accidentally develop, I have to cut up the whole piece of fabric and sell it retail, and the price will be much different.
Half a year ago, Zeng Jing didn't know anything about this. She had never even touched a copper plate.
Every time I make a move, it's either silver or gold, and I achieve the true heroic demeanor.
Unlike now, every penny must be calculated carefully.
Zhang Renfeng was also wiping his head with a towel.
He turned his back to Zeng Jing, facing a rough bronze mirror, and seemed not to notice his wife behind him.
However, he had already secretly sensed that something was wrong with her.
what happened?
Or did he discover something?
Zhang Renfeng made some calculations in her mind and continued to review her recent actions to check whether she had made any omissions.
On the surface, he remains calm and maintains his persona of Jiang Asheng.
He was careless, as if he didn't notice anything.
And Zeng Jing was really thinking about something, not because of her ordinary and overly honest husband, but because of the three people who were almost blatantly observing her in the teahouse before.
On the surface, she remained calm and pretended that nothing happened, but in fact, her heart gradually sank.
She had a vague premonition that it might be difficult to maintain her peaceful life.
Dang Dang Dang!
There was a knock on the door, and the two people paused at the same time.
Zhang Renfeng looked at the courtyard door strangely: "Strange, who could it be at this time?"
Zeng Jing said: "Maybe it was blown by the wind!"
Zhang Renfeng said: "It doesn't sound like it!"
Dang Dang Dang!
The knock on the door sounded again.
"Sure enough, there is someone knocking on the door. I'm going to open the door right now!"
Zhang Renfeng clapped his hands and ran all the way to open the door.
Zeng Jing opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything to stop her. She was still lucky.
Glancing at the dripping eaves, she slowly exhaled, calmed down her somewhat confused mood, and returned to the original Gujing Wubo.
Since you can't hide, the only thing left is to face it!
