Chapter 167: Some Kidney Nourishment
She really doesn't want to cook by herself.
If you make too much, you can’t finish it; if you make too little, it’s boring.
So she often has to entertain a few people outside.
Even the owners of the nearby Fly Restaurant seemed to know her.
She would strike up a conversation with every household she passed by.
When Ji Lianqi, dressed in military uniform, appeared, passers-by and diners in the Cangfei Restaurant on the street all turned their eyes to him.
Ye Ying stood beside Ji Lianqi, and was "forced" to follow him and accept the baptism of gazes.
She knew very well that the reason why he attracted so much attention was definitely because of the clothes he was wearing.
At this time, the masses of people admired the military more.
Ye Ying couldn't help but whispered, "Brother, can't you change into some casual clothes before coming out?"
"I didn't bring it." Ji Lianqi lowered his head and stared at Ye Ying, who was a head shorter than him. "Besides, it's not shameful."
"No, no, no... I don't mean to embarrass myself." Ye Ying hastily defended herself, "I just think you're too dazzling! Passersby are staring at you."
"Also, you didn't even bring a set of casual clothes with you when you went out."
"Um."
Ye Ying was stunned. Was this man planning to glue the military uniform onto his body?
She thought for a moment and said, "How about this, after we finish eating, I'll take you to buy clothes! I know a place where you can buy clothes at a very low price and of good quality, and they're all from Guangzhou!"
Ji Lianqi was startled: "Buy me clothes?"
"Yeah, you can't walk around the street wearing this eye-catching outfit every day, right?"
Ji Lianqi said nothing, which was considered as his agreement.
Ye Ying walked with Ji Lianqi for a while and finally stopped in front of a restaurant: "Let's eat here."
When the boss and his wife saw Ye Ying, they greeted her warmly. After chatting for a while, they noticed that there was a soldier standing at the door.
"Hey? The person standing at the door is..."
"Oh!" Ye Ying turned her head and glanced at Ji Lianqi, then hesitated for a moment and replied, "This is... um, my husband."
Well...at least for now, she can't say she doesn't know him.
"Oh? So your husband is a military officer!" The restaurant owner was surprised, then smiled and said, "Come in and find a place to sit, don't stand!"
"You seem to be very familiar with them." After finding a seat and sitting down, Ji Lianqi looked at Ye Ying.
Ye Ying picked up the menu and started to study what to eat. Without even looking up, she said, "It's... it's OK. I've come here so many times that I've gotten to know it."
Seeing Ye Ying on the menu, the lady boss came over with an ambiguous look on her face and whispered jokingly, "Xiao Ye, do you want some barbecue?"
"We've recently started doing barbecue here! Why don't you give your man a few skewers of kidneys to help him replenish his body?"
"Puff!" Ye Ying almost couldn't hold back her laughter, but she still responded with a smile: "Boss lady, do you think he needs some nourishment?"
"Let me take a look!" The proprietress suddenly turned her head and stared at Ji Lianqi.
The proprietress claimed that she could read faces and was very keen on helping people. She even read faces for Ye Ying and said that she would not only make a fortune in the future, but would also have many children!
When Ye Ying heard it, she just smiled and passed it by, not taking it seriously.
Of course, she hopes that becoming rich is real.
The proprietress stared at Ji Lianqi for two or three minutes.
Ji Lianqi felt very uncomfortable being stared at, but he happened to hear their conversation.
"Let me see..." The lady boss looked at Ji Lianqi from left to right, nodded and began to make a conclusion: "Well, judging from his face, there is indeed nothing wrong with his waist and kidneys."
"Very good, very good, no need to make up for it."
The lady boss nodded as she spoke: "Sister, you have a good eye! I was definitely right, you are destined to have multiple children."
This not only embarrassed Ji Lianqi, but also embarrassed Ye Ying who was originally waiting to watch the show.
Multiple births? What the hell!
She glanced at Ji Lianqi secretly and found that he was looking down, not knowing what he was thinking about, but it was not difficult to see that his ears were slightly red.
The lady boss saw through their embarrassment and raised her voice: "What? What's going on? Why are you two being shy?"
"Could it be that you just got married not long ago?"
The proprietress looked back and forth between the two of them with a gossipy look, and was about to say something else when she was pulled away by the boss in the back kitchen.
"You are just an idiot. Don't just sit there and watch your food all day long and meddle in other people's business! Hurry up and help in the kitchen."
After saying that, he took the menu Ye Ying ordered and went into the kitchen.
After the proprietress was taken away, only the two of them were left.
Perhaps because of what the proprietress said just now, both of them felt a little awkward at the moment, and no one spoke first.
After sitting there awkwardly for ten minutes, the dishes Ye Ying ordered arrived.
There aren't many people eating here right now, so the food is served very quickly.
but--
When all the dishes Ye Ying ordered were served, she still found a plate of grilled kidneys...
What are you doing?
The lady boss pointed at the plate of kidneys and said, "Oh, this is for free! Don't worry, I won't charge you any money. You two, just help me taste it. If it tastes good, come back for more!"
"Ah... this is embarrassing, boss lady, why don't you just -"
"You're welcome, you're welcome!" The proprietress ignored Ye Ying's objection and said, "Try it quickly, I have to go in and help first!"
After saying that, he ran into the kitchen in a flash.
The two of them stared at the plate of kidneys in front of them, and neither of them picked up their chopsticks.
"Eat, why don't you do anything?" Ye Ying couldn't help but ask, "If you don't want to eat kidneys, you can eat other dishes."
"I spent a huge amount of money to order several dishes to welcome you!"
Ji Lianqi glanced at the three dishes, one soup and one skewered kidney in front of him and frowned, saying, "There's no need to waste so much."
He was used to a life almost isolated from the world and the communal meals in the army. Looking at the delicious meal in front of him, he felt very uncomfortable for the first time.
Seeing that Ji Lianqi still hadn't picked up his chopsticks, Ye Ying hesitated for a moment, then picked up a piece of scrambled eggs with leeks and put it into his bowl.
"Eat it!"
The proprietress came out from the kitchen at the right moment, saw this, and interrupted without any context: "Yeah, leeks will work too!"
Ye Ying: “???”
She quickly realized what the landlady meant.
My goodness, she is omnipresent!
Ye Ying didn't think much about it when she ordered this dish.
I just suddenly didn't know what to click, and I happened to see this, so I wrote it down.
I didn't expect that the boss lady could use it to make an article!
Ji Lianqi stared at the fried eggs with leeks in the bowl, paused for a moment, picked up one piece and ate it.
