The dim sum shop's business is so good that the national chef has even limited the supply. Only 100 servings are made a day, and they're gone once they're sold out. If you want to eat, please line up early tomorrow.
At the time, they didn't understand that 100 servings was really too little. They had more people, so they could make 100 more and sell them.
The imperial chef just wouldn't let them do that. He would rather let them sit comfortably in the backyard drinking tea and chatting than satisfy the customers who lined up in front of the shop, craning their necks and eagerly looking forward to buying pastries.
I also told them solemnly: "We can't satisfy their desires. We have to let them see but not eat, so that our snacks will appear precious."
Indeed, many people were anxious because they didn’t buy it.
Some people even want to take advantage of them through the back door.
When going out to buy things, people with good sense will not raise the price they sell to them. They all hope to buy snacks from the snack shop so that they can show off in front of their relatives and friends and earn enough face.
Before the dim sum shop opened, they lived off all their savings, and the old Duke was worried all day long.
I really don't know how long we will have to stay here. Even if the emperor gives us money, it will take too long and the money will not be enough for them to spend.
Later, after opening a shop and making some money, the old Duke felt better. Now the Imperial Master sent him another large bundle of silver, and he finally laughed heartily.
The national teacher is really resourceful. Even when he was captured, he never forgot to get money for his family and make his grandfather happy.
There is no such a good granddaughter in the four countries.
Chu Xiaoxiao, the good granddaughter who was admired by the old soldiers from the bottom of their hearts, followed Li Sizu to open other doors. Not finding anything good, they went to the back room.
There are three rooms here, one is the kitchen and dining room, one is the woodshed, and the last one is where the three children are imprisoned.
When I opened the door, I saw two girls and one boy, both around seven or eight years old.
The two girls were squatting on the ground, wearing tattered clothes, dirty and emitting a bad smell.
The boy lay on the ground motionless, with dried blood on his buttocks and legs. It looked like he had been beaten, and the beating was not light. He bit his lower lip tightly, with a stubborn look on his face.
I struggled to get up, but failed after several attempts. Instead, I was exhausted, panting and sweating.
The two girls saw them coming in the door and showed sympathy on their faces.
One of them asked in a hoarse voice: "Were you also captured?"
Li Sizu nodded: "Yes!"
The little boy ran over, looked at the little boy, and asked in a baby voice, "You are the little great-grandson of the Ye family?"
The little boy did not answer but asked: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Li Sizu followed and protected Naituanzi: "We were captured by the Xizhao people, but they were unlucky and all died. You are safe now and can go back to your families."
After hearing this, the two little girls burst into tears.
The one who was speaking cried particularly hard: "Wuwuwu! I was not captured by them, I was sold to them by my grandmother. My parents are dead, I have no home, and I can't go back. Wuwuwu! What should I do?"
Another one started crying, "I am the second daughter of Liangji Tofu in the west of the city. My name is Liang Youyan. I was deceived by an old woman and came here. I want to go home. My parents can't find me. They must be very sad."
"Sister Tao Huan! You can come to my house." Liang Youyan hugged the crying little girl Tao Huan and comforted her, "My parents are very kind people. It doesn't matter if you have one more mouth to feed at home."
"No! My grandmother is very difficult to deal with. If she knew I was back and a free man, she might go to your house and make trouble."
Tao Huan was older than Liang Youyan and saw things more clearly. She knew her grandmother too well. Although her friends who had shared the same hardships were willing to take her in, she couldn't let herself be entangled by her grandmother, who was like a piece of meat on a rolling knife.
At this time, the little boy spoke: "Sister Tao Huan! You can come to my house. I will ask my mother to keep you here. If you stay with me, I will definitely not let you go hungry or cold."
[Ahaha! The little great-grandson of the Ye family is good, he knows how to sympathize with friends in need. Tao Huan has bright and beautiful facial features, she is a natural beauty. The two of them will surely develop into a poignant love story of a young master and a maid sharing weal and woe, and being childhood sweethearts! ]
Li Sizu: “…”
Sister Xiaoxiao! You think too much. Don't forget that you are still a baby.
"Thank you! Can your mother get past my grandmother?" Tao Huan was embarrassed, lowered his head, and kept wiping tears, "My grandmother is very good at scolding and beating people. If she knew I went to your house, she would definitely go and harass me.
She cursed at me in all kinds of bad ways. My mother was cursed to death by my grandmother. My father was so sad that he caught a cold and died soon after.
My grandmother said I was a jinx who had brought death to my parents, and wanted to sell me off, but they gave me one ounce of silver and bought me.”
Li Sizu comforted Tao Huan: "Don't be afraid, the Ye family spent ten taels of silver to buy you back. If you want to take you away, you can use the silver to redeem you."
Milk ball nodded and said: "Yes, to deal with bad guys, this is the way."
[Li Sizu's idea is good. If ten taels of silver doesn't work, then raise it to one hundred taels, and let the old woman of the Tao family regret it to death. Selling the granddaughter for one tael of silver is too bad.]
Patting Chu Xiaoxiao's head, Li Sizu smiled and comforted her: "Don't be angry, the old lady of the Tao family will definitely regret it."
The young great-grandson of the Ye family looked up at Li Sizu and said, "Thank you! My name is Ye Tuxiao, and I am the young great-grandson of the Ye family. I was not abducted, I was sent here. I tried to escape, so they beat me severely."
The milk ball opened his mouth wide: "Someone, sent it here?"
[Alas! It seems like another bloody melon from a wealthy family. The Ye family is one of the four major families in Nanyun Country. They have to eat this melon.]
Li Sizu let go of Chu Xiaoxiao's hand, walked to Ye Tuxiao's side, and squatted down: "There is a carriage outside. I will carry you out and send Liang Youyan back first."
"Thank you, brother! Who are you? What's your name?"
Yetuxiao raised his upper body and lay on Li Sizu. His legs could no longer bend as it was too painful, so he could only let them hang straight down.
Tao Huan held him back with his hands.
Liang Youyan, holding Chu Xiaoxiao's hand, and the five children staggered out of the back room and walked towards the carriage outside the door.
The charcoal-headed man fell from the roof, scaring the other three people. Milk ball told them: "Don't be afraid, we are one family."
The three fearful people finally breathed a sigh of relief. After a long while, the six of them finally walked out of the Hai family's house. Sure enough, the carriage was at the door, and the horse was dozing with its eyes closed.
When she heard someone coming, she shook her ponytail and tapped her feet.
Li Sizu carried Ye Tuxiao onto the carriage with difficulty and placed him on the couch. The black-haired man volunteered to be the driver. The reason was that he had such a strong pressure that the horse did not dare to kick.
I didn't even dare to go crazy and overturn the car.
The six children left the Hai family's territory in the west of the city in a horse-drawn carriage and went to Liang Youyan's tofu shop.
