The old city is naturally inferior to the bustling modern new city.
As far as I could see, there was no building with more than seven floors. The tallest building was only a six-story tenement building.
However, although it is not as prosperous as the new city, most people who have lived here their whole life are not willing to leave.
Probably because it has more human touch compared to the cold and tall stone forest.
Miss the bun shop.
Basically every morning it is full of people. The customers are naturally old neighbors and are familiar with the boss. Inside the shop, the relationship is between customers and the boss, and outside the shop, it is that of old friends.
"Little girl! Here's a pot of tea!"
An old man who was still full of energy shouted at this time.
In front of the hall, a little girl who was bending over to clean up the leftovers after the guests left quickly responded and hurriedly went to give the old man tea.
"Old Chen, where did you hire this little girl? She works hard! And she's pretty! Today's young girls, some pretty ones, look down on these hard workers!"
is not that right?
She is probably around 20 years old. Shui Lingling is like a hibiscus in clear water. When she smiles, she can make people feel at ease unconsciously.
It was obviously still a hot morning, but in this old shop with no air conditioning and the door open, I felt a burst of coolness while sitting there.
The little girl walked among the Taiwanese customers, her body as light as a butterfly.
"If I were thirty years younger, I would definitely pursue him! Oh no...forty years!"
"me too!"
"Hahahaha!! A bunch of old immortals!" the aunt in the corner immediately spat, "Look at you bunch of dead guys! If my family's Jiaming is still the same!"
"This fat woman is promoting her son again!"
"What's going on?!"
The diners began to quarrel half seriously and half jokingly. The boss, Lao Chen, just smiled and buried his head in kneading the dough.
At this time, my wife took out a handkerchief and began to wipe it on Lao Chen’s forehead. At this time, Lao Chen smiled slightly. Although the bun shop is not big, it has been doing it for decades. As for my wife, I only wiped sweat like this a few times.
ten years.
"Pianqing, the buns for the guests at the first table have been packed." Lao Chen called to the little girl who was pouring tea.
"OK."
The little girl responded and quickly sent the packed things over.
At this time, new customers came to the store.
A relatively fair young man, the young man, looked at the little girl with a little surprise, and the little girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "We meet again."
"Yes, it's a bit surprising." Luo Qiu nodded.
He never expected to see this feathered butterfly demon here, and it seemed to be working in this bun shop. The little butterfly demon was dressed very plainly, like a girl from the mountains.
But these did not cover up Pian Ying's beauty - seeing this butterfly demon again, what Boss Luo thought of was that it seemed that she had been quite successful in shaping her body when she emerged from the pupa and was reborn.
"You... came to see me specifically?" Pian Ting looked at Luo Qiu curiously.
Due to the accidental encounter, Die Yao easily had the feeling that Luo Qiu came specifically for her - besides, the club itself is a mysterious place, and it doesn't seem to be difficult to know where she is.
.
Luo Qiu shook his head and said, "I should be such a regular customer."
Pianying tilted her head in confusion.
The boss, Lao Chen, shouted at this moment: "Luo Qiu! I haven't seen you for several days, and you come all the way to buy steamed buns to eat?"
Luo Qiu nodded towards the boss and his wife, then looked at the butterfly demon and said, "I lived here when I was a child."
"Then sit down."
Butterfly Pianqing seemed to feel relieved, and greeted Luo Qiu and sat down. Lao Chen said at this moment: "Luo Qiu, I will make you buns right away, the same way!"
"Okay." Luo Qiu responded.
He sat alone in the corner, as if he was in his own world, took out a thick book from his backpack, and started reading.
When the steamed buns came, Luo Qiu ate one while it was hot, and then continued reading. It took about half an hour to eat the three steamed buns in this basket.
The butterfly demon thought Luo Qiu would leave after eating, but he didn't expect him to just sit there, drinking tea and reading a book, just like an old man.
"He's like this, he'll leave whenever he wants. It doesn't matter." Lao Chen said to Pian Ting, "I've seen this kid since I was a kid. He's a very quiet person."
"Is he really the one you watched growing up?" Pian Ting asked curiously.
The club she knew... had always been rumored among the monster circles.
Some puzzled butterfly demons were doing their work silently, but they would also peek at Luo Qiu, who had been studying quietly.
After some time, almost all the customers left, and it was almost 10:30 in the morning. Lao Chen shouted at this time: "Pianqing, clean up and prepare to close the door!"
"Okay, but..." Pian Ting glanced at Luo Qiu, who had not left yet, and seemed to hesitate.
Old Chen chuckled and asked Pianying to continue working. He walked to Luo Qiu and sat down in front of Luo Qiu with a small teapot.
"Uncle, why is there an extra person in the store?" Luo Qiu suddenly asked.
Old Chen laughed and said: "Are you talking about Pian Ning? This child is so pitiful. When she was cleaning up that morning, my wife watched her picking up food from the back door to eat. She was also wearing rags. The old woman asked her something.
Many of them didn’t understand, and they asked her if she had any family members, and she said no, and she also said she couldn’t remember what happened in the past.”
Lao Chen blew a sip from the teapot and said, "I think she has nothing on her. She is natural and simple. She doesn't understand many things. She also has amnesia. I'm afraid she was tricked out of the mountains or something, so I took her in temporarily.
This girl is also hard-working, and she didn’t want to live in vain, so she came down to help.”
"But it's a coincidence that this baby's surname is also Luo." Old Chen shook his head and said: "Luo Pian Ting, Luo Pian Ting, there is a special flavor to this name as you recite it. Girls in the mountains will never choose such a good name.
Her name is, I wonder if she might be the daughter of a wealthy family."
Hearing that the butterfly demon used Luo's surname, Luo Qiu subconsciously looked towards the butterfly demon who was wiping the glass outside the door, and found that the butterfly demon had been peeking over. When he looked into Luo Qiu's eyes, he
He was hurriedly wiping the glass on the other side. He must have heard the conversation here.
Youkai's hearing... is probably pretty good, right?
"By the way, Luo Qiu, do you think there is any way to help Pian Ping?" Old Chen smiled and said, "You young people, your brains work much faster than us old guys."
Luo Qiu thought for a while and suddenly said: "Uncle, can I have a few words with you alone?"
Old Chen was stunned, but at this moment he saw Luo Qiu opening the thick book in his hand, and there was a dark card sandwiched in one of the pages.
When Lao Chen saw it, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and he looked in disbelief at this old neighbor he had grown up with.
His lips trembled slightly, "You..."
Luo Qiu said softly: "Uncle, close the door."

PS1: There are two chapters left in the evening. One chapter is about eight o'clock in the evening. As for the other chapter, it is not actually today, but after early morning, about 05 or 06 minutes, right?
PS2: Since it’s Monday...so I’m asking for votes for the update.
PS3: Do you think the name "Luo Pianqing" sounds good? Does it sound good? Does it sound good?
PS4: If it doesn’t sound good, I’ve changed it (looking at the sky), so... you can just say ‘You are the author, you’re happy’ =.=
