Chapter 28 Chapter 28 This bet is also simple...

This bet is also simple. It is a small game that everyone likes nowadays. It is called "Fighting Grass". Children as young as three years old and old men in their seventies can play it. There are various ways to play, including literary and physical fights. The literary fight is that participants go together to find various flowers and plants. Whoever finds more wins. The physical fight is the simplest. Two people each hold a piece of grass, cross them into a cross, and then try to force each other. Whoever breaks first loses.

The three of them happened to meet while climbing the mountain. They made a bet that whoever found the most flowers and plants at the pier would win. Lin Jie, the leader, found the most, followed by Cen Xuan, and the worst was Wen Lin.

The bet is that the winner designates a task for the loser to do, and the loser cannot refuse. Lin Jie has long been dissatisfied with Wen Lin, the eldest grandson of the Wen family, who always gets the top grade despite hanging out with them. Now that he happened to have defeated him once again, he racked his brains to come up with this method to embarrass him. As long as the other party eats this offal, he will exaggerate it and publicize it in the county school. Wouldn't that relieve years of depression?

"I think this is a good idea! What do you think, Brother Wen? Please come in?" Lin Jie suppressed his discomfort, turned his wrist, folded the folding fan with orchid painted on it, and pointed it directly at Su Li's stall.

When Wen Lin saw this, his eyes moved. He understood what the other party meant. He just wanted to make fun of him. Because of his family background, he could naturally refuse, but he was willing to accept the defeat. Besides, he had been unruly since he was a child. Unlike ordinary people, he was willing to try anything. What was there to be afraid of if it was just a meal made from pig offal?

What's more, when he looked at the two young ladies selling food, although they were dressed in rags and looked a little pale and thin, their nails were neatly trimmed and they looked fresh and not annoying. Most importantly, the food smelled quite fragrant and did not make him feel uncomfortable.

Surely it’s not that bad?

"Can."

"Are you free now, young lady? Give me a portion of this meal."

Wen Lin stepped forward modestly. He was handsome, with a gentle voice. Although he was only 16.7 years old, he had a romantic demeanor and spoke in a mature manner, not at all like a man of his age. Su Tao, who was facing him, blushed at the first sight of him and lowered her head, not knowing what to do.

Su Li, who was standing by, quickly came over and said, "Young Master, wait a moment."

After greeting him, she stopped looking at him and went to get her own meal.

Young Master? Wen Lin was momentarily stunned by the title. This young lady's words were quite interesting. Judging from her appearance, she must be younger than him, right?

Could it be that she looks young, but is actually very old?

Yes, my grandfather said that nowadays poor families even have trouble getting enough to eat, and looking young does not mean anything. It is possible that they already have children.

It was a bit wrong for him to call her "young lady".

So Wen Lin took the food from Su Li and said apologetically, "Thank you, my lady."

? Madam?

Su Li felt something was strange, but she didn't know what was strange. After all, it was not a problem for people in this dynasty to call strangers "wife".

Just like she can call customers "guest" or "official", it is just a pseudonym, and it is not like what we saw on TV before, where only couples can call each other like this.

It was quite messy anyway, but Su Li was used to it.

Forget it, call it whatever you want, as long as you can make money.

"Young Master, a total of 10 coins."

Su Li said with a smile.

Wen Lin saw this and then he remembered that he had not paid the silver. His ears turned red immediately. He quickly freed his hands to untie the purse at his waist, took out a silver ingot from it and handed it to Su Li.

This was the first time Su Li received silver ingots. She was surprised and a little embarrassed. She knew she couldn't afford it without weighing it.

This is over. Is the business going to fail? Just when Su Li decided to ask Aunt Shen if she had a scale and if she could change it, Wen Lin seemed to realize something and suddenly said,

"My lady, there's no need to look for it."

Although Wenlin was born into a wealthy family, he was very sympathetic to the poor people. When he learned from his mother that they worked hard day and night but could not earn enough to feed themselves, he felt sad for a long time. It was only his grandfather's words that cheered him up.

At the same time, from then on, whenever he faced the poor and helpless, he would lend a helping hand and be generous. Although he often met greedy people, he would occasionally meet people who were grateful, which was also a pleasure.

The person in front of him was the one who was grateful. Knowing this made him happier than any other gold and silver. He saw Su Li was about to go to the person next to her to exchange for silver, and quickly stopped her, "My lady, don't mind."

Translated it means, just take it if it's given to you.

This was the first time Su Li encountered such a situation, and she was a little confused for a moment. Finally, she saw that he really didn't want it, and saw that although this person was polite, he was distant in every way, even wiping the chopsticks and the edge of the bowl with a handkerchief. She knew that although the other party didn't say it on the surface, he might actually dislike this environment and this food. Combined with what she had just heard from several people, she roughly reconstructed the matter.

I guess a few people made some kind of bet, and the loser had to eat pig intestines or something.

…

Well, Su Li forgot that this is not the modern era. Nowadays, stir-fried pork intestines are a delicacy that many people love to eat. Here, it is said that rich families only eat mutton and do not eat pork because they dislike it being dirty and smelly. Only poor families eat pork.

Although they didn't want change, Su Li still promised, "Young Master, if you want to eat anything in the future, just come here and you can pay for it here."

It can be considered as another way of saving money for meals, although it is very likely that the other party will never come again.

Wen Lin was stunned for a moment when he heard this and then smiled, "Okay."

After saying that, Wen Lin looked at the rough porcelain bowl in his hand which had a fish painted on it and a chip on it. In addition, Lin Jie and Cen Xuan also gathered around him.

"Are there no stools here?" Lin Jie said with some dissatisfaction. What kind of stall is this? There is not even a place for people to eat.

Su Li felt a little embarrassed when she heard this, and said, "I'm really sorry."

But I made up my mind that I must get the tables, chairs and benches ready when I get home. Fortunately, my grandparents will be home soon, so I will ask my grandfather, Old Man Su, to customize two small tables for me.

“No problem…”

"That's not difficult. Let's just go to the wonton stall and buy two bowls of wontons to eat together." Lin Jie was afraid that Wen Lin would use this as an excuse to refuse to eat the meal, so he spoke quickly. Besides, he was hungry after climbing the mountain for such a long time, so eating the wontons was just right.

"Okay, I'll go order two bowls of wontons."

After saying that, the three of them moved to the wonton stall.

Here, after ordering two bowls of wontons, Lin Jie turned his attention to Wen Lin's meal.

"Eat, Brother Wen."

"Eat it right away." Wen Lin said, and stretched out the clean wooden chopsticks to pick up a piece of pig intestine in the bowl. He had just carefully looked at the pig intestine on the top of the bowl and found it was handled extremely cleanly, without the filth he had imagined. He also didn't know how this woman cooked it, but it smelled good and the color was very tempting. For a moment, he even thought that maybe they had seen it wrong, and this was not actually a pig intestine, but something else, such as vegetarian tofu?
