Chapter 238 So this is what Goubuli steamed buns are like!

When you poke open a bun, you see that the white skin is filled with ordinary meat.

It turns out that the so-called Goubuli steamed buns in Haijin are just much larger than ordinary steamed buns, nothing more.

This bun is bigger than my face. At first glance, it looks pretty good, but apart from being big, it looks exactly like a regular meat bun!

Even if they are big, they don't cost a tael of silver each.

Just because it's a "Goubuli steamed bun," it can be sold for one or two taels of silver each, which is extremely profitable.

Only then did Sheng Sheng truly understand the meaning behind the boss's smile.

No wonder the steamed bun shop owner is smiling so happily; with such exorbitant profits, anyone would be happy.

Sheng Sheng and Xie Yunqi looked at each other, feeling that they had been deceived.

They'd been looking forward to delicious food all the way here, and this was it?

Xie Yunqi was furious: "This is called 'Goubuli Baozi'? Then if I make a baozi bigger than a tiger, can I call it 'Hubuli Baozi'?"

Xie Yunqi was both amused and exasperated. A nearby diner overheard his complaints and kindly comforted him, "Young master, don't be sad. Every year, many first-time visitors to Haijin come here only to be deceived. You are not the only ones who have been cheated."

Xie Yunqi: "...Thank you for comforting me."

The diners waved their hands warmly, saying, "You're welcome, you're welcome. We people of Haijin are just that kind-hearted."

Xie Yunqi: "..."

Sheng Sheng laughed uncontrollably, but seeing Xie Yunqi's gloomy face, she quickly put some meat filling from a bun on his plate and fed it to him.

"Brother, eat meat. Actually, this minced meat smells pretty good."

"oh."

Frustrated, Xie Yunqi poked at the minced meat with her chopsticks, unable to extricate herself from the disillusionment of her cherished food illusion shattered.

Sheng Sheng took a few bites and found the meat filling quite fragrant. Perhaps it was because of the untreated sea salt smell that lingered in the air, but Sheng Sheng also felt that the meat filling had a peculiar salty taste, which was quite delicious.

It got a bit greasy after a few bites, and Sheng Sheng couldn't eat anymore after a few bites.

Xie Yunqi also lost her appetite. The two of them finally managed to finish one, and Chunhua took the rest back to the inn to share with Lao Mao and the others.

The two sat at the steamed bun shop for a while, watching the people coming and going on the street. Thirteen came over and delivered a message to them, saying that Xie Yunchuan and Xie Yunyang were meeting with Doctor Shen at the inn where he was staying and would not be joining them for the time being. They were told to go back to the inn to rest or go out and have some fun.

Given such a great opportunity, the two children naturally chose to go out and play.

So Shengsheng and Xie Yunqi strolled around the streets of Haijin. The east side of Haijin is the sea, and Shengsheng even pulled Xie Yunqi to the beach. The two children lingered until sunset before reluctantly heading back.

Zijuan and Qiuyue followed behind the two, carrying many new trinkets they had chosen and bought. Shengsheng and Xie Yunqi also carried several small toys themselves.

The two of them spent the whole afternoon shopping, finally making up for the disappointment they suffered at Goubuli steamed buns.

Sheng Sheng was a little tired from shopping, while Xie Yunqi looked refreshed and energetic, holding the little trinkets in her hands with great affection, and could even play with them until late at night.

Xie Yunqi asked her, "So, little sister, shall we go anywhere else?"

After walking all afternoon, Sheng Sheng was tired, so she shook her head and said, "I'm not going anymore, brother. Let's go tomorrow. I'm so tired today."

Xie Yunqi was used to being mischievous and always jumping around, so this level of intensity was nothing to him. But since his sister was tired, he decided to stop playing.

"Alright, tomorrow I'll take you to a great place! I've heard the storyteller at the No. 1 Teahouse in Haijin is really interesting, let's go check it out tomorrow!"

"Okay, okay."

Sheng Sheng had long heard that many teahouses had storytellers to entertain the tea drinkers. Some storytellers would even interact with the tea drinkers, which was quite interesting. Sheng Sheng had been wanting to go to a teahouse for a long time.

The two had planned their activities for tomorrow. Seeing that Sheng Sheng looked tired, Zijuan asked, "Miss, should I go and call someone to bring a carriage over?"

Haijin is a small place, and it only takes them fifteen minutes to walk back to the inn from where they are now, so Shengsheng didn't want to go through that trouble.

Sheng Sheng shook her head: "No need, let's walk back."

Then he said to Xie Yunqi, "Fifth Brother, let's buy some snacks on our way back to bring to my brother and the others."

"I'll do whatever my sister says!"

Sheng Sheng was still thinking about her two older brothers who were discussing serious matters. Although the Goubuli steamed buns they had been looking forward to did not meet their expectations, they had eaten a lot of unique snacks. It would be good to buy some to take back for her brothers who had worked hard all day.

Since they wanted to buy snacks, the two walked down the busiest street.

In the afternoon, the two of them strolled along this street, stopping frequently to buy lots of snacks and interesting little gadgets. It was so much fun!

Sheng Sheng dragged Xie Yunqi to buy fried chicken frames from the street vendor, which she thought were the best.

"I'd like a fried chicken rack!"

"One serving of fried chicken racks."

Sheng Sheng and another person's voice rang out at the same time. Sheng Sheng didn't think much of it. After all, this chicken frame was so delicious that it was normal for many people to buy it.

But the next second, Sheng Sheng heard the shopkeeper say, "I'm so sorry, esteemed customers, our waiter is sick and on leave today. We're just too busy to fry enough chicken frames. This is the last order of fried chicken frames we have left. Please see..."

What? She only has one serving of chicken frame left?

Sheng Sheng and the person next to her turned their heads at the same time, and the two looked at each other.

The person next to Sheng Sheng was a handsome man with a refined and calm demeanor, dressed in pure white clothes.

Judging by his appearance alone, he doesn't seem like the kind of person who would eat greasy chicken frames.

Moreover, this person looks quite old, at least close to thirty. Fried chicken frames are usually something children like to eat. Could this young master be buying them for his own child?

Shen Jiaqing also looked down at the little dumpling beside him. The little dumpling had red lips and white teeth and was very cute. Suddenly, it reminded him of his own younger sister when she was a child, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of closeness.

With a few blinks, Sheng Sheng was already convinced that the uncle next to her was going to buy chicken frames for his children.

Since it was bought for his children, they must be really looking forward to it. Not wanting to disappoint them, he smiled and said, "Uncle, you can have this chicken frame."

Shen Jiaqing paused for a moment, then asked, "Huh? Uncle?"

Shen Jiaqing pointed at herself, her face full of disbelief: "Who are you calling? Are you calling me uncle?"
