Chapter 83 Chapter 83 "The steamed buns are fragrant and hot...
"Baozi, baozi, fragrant and hot baozi, freshly-baked baozi, baozi with fresh meat filling, delicious baozi!" A roadside vendor was fanning his steaming cage, waving his arms happily and shouting to the customers passing by.
The buns smelled good to begin with, and he waved the fan so hard that the fragrance spread. People around him smelled it and felt a little hungry. Some people walked up and lined up to pay for the buns, while others took a closer look before leaving even if they didn't buy anything. The bun business was booming.
Li Hanshuang rummaged through his pockets and pulled Li Baihe over to line up. He bought two of each filling, one for himself and the other for himself. He was extremely happy.
Fortunately, this bun stall does not have many kinds of buns with different fillings, only beef, pork and red bean paste fillings, which are slightly smaller than a fist.
The surface is white and tender, with a slight oil seeping out from the bottom. It is a little yellow and a little burnt. It makes a crunching sound when you bite it. It has a hard shell and tastes very delicious and fragrant.
It tastes better when mixed with meat. It has all the necessary fillings and is well seasoned, but it doesn't overshadow the main ingredients, so there is no chance that the guests will accidentally eat something they hate.
Li Baili first took a small bite of each of the three kinds of buns, chewed them for a while, and her face turned slightly red, not sure if it was from the steam or the heat of the buns. Her eyebrows were slightly curved, and she looked happy and satisfied. She nodded slowly and said, "Not bad."
Li Hanshuang was jumping around beside him with a bun in her hand, like a lively and clever rabbit that had been locked up in a cage for a long time. Today, she was let out for the first time and wanted to run around happily. She agreed very much, her face flushed, she was a little excited and very happy, and nodded and said, "Isn't it?"
As he spoke, he took a big bite of the soft bun in his hand. The bun had a thin skin and a large filling. The surface was soft and slightly sweet, while the inside was fresh and fragrant with a strong meaty flavor. When you chew it, it feels grainy and full, and it is delicious.
A happy look appeared on Li Hanshuang's face, and his jumping speed gradually slowed down, and finally stopped next to Li Baili, like a German Shepherd that was led by a leash and stayed obediently beside its owner.
He bit the bun hard, and as if he remembered something, he suddenly stretched out a hand and grabbed Li Baili.
Li Baili was eating a bun slowly. When he pulled her, she didn't react in any special way. She just looked at him, as if to say, I won't run away. She shook her head gently, with a subtle smile flashing across her face. Then she lowered her head to eat the bun, as if nothing had happened just now.
All is calm, peaceful and harmonious.
Li Hanshuang quickly finished the bun in his hand, but there was still a little red bean paste left, which she was slowly stuffing into her throat. Her face was red, and she didn't know if it was because of the choking or because she was a little too full, so she couldn't eat any more, but she didn't want to waste it.
Li Baili still had a red bean paste bun in his hand. Except for a small bite on the top, the rest of the bun was untouched. He looked at Li Hanshuang with a smile, and a hint of mischief suddenly flashed in his eyes. He handed the bun to Li Hanshuang and whispered, "If you can't finish it, what should I do?"
Li Hanshuang took a look and saw that his cheeks were already bulging with stuffing, looking like a hamster storing food. The redness on his face had not yet faded, and he mumbled in a low voice: "Wait a minute, I'll eat it all!"
Not sure whether he was sighing or feeling relieved, he quietly looked away while swallowing, rolled his eyes, and said to himself: "If you hadn't taken a bite, it would have been a complete bun, and I could have thrown it to the cat next to me.
I think it can eat a lot. If it is willing to only eat these ordinary foods from now on, it won’t matter if it is kept for two more days. However, I don’t know what it thinks. ”
After hearing what Li Hanshuang said, Li Baili tugged at the willow branch in her hand, looked at the white cat that followed her like a real pet, and asked with a smile, "Did you hear that?"
Although he was smiling, there seemed to be a thin layer of flowing ice floating in his eyes, and all his emotions were frozen in the depths of the distant darkness. No matter how turbulent the emotions were, they had nothing to do with outsiders, which made them even colder.
The white cat shivered, raised its head, and blinked, trying to act cute to get away with it. Li Baili just looked at it with a smile without saying a word, obviously not satisfied with this reaction.
The white cat trembled as it straightened its upper body and put its two paws together to bow to Li Baili: "I already know I was wrong, don't hit me anymore! I will eat if you let me eat, and I won't eat if you don't let me eat! I won't mess around! Really!"
Li Baili shook her head, not making any comment. It was unclear whether she was satisfied or not, but the half-smile on her face did not disappear, and it seemed that she was more inclined to be dissatisfied.
The white cat was terrified, but did not dare to expose its strangeness in the crowd, so it lay down again, moved on all fours, pretending to be an ordinary cat, and took much lighter steps than before, for fear that it would accidentally step on the bomb and be blown to death without knowing what happened.
As the white cat walked, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: The Demon Lord is really moody! It's really shocking that someone can show such pure happiness around him!
If it were me, I wouldn't be able to pretend! I don't know whether I should admire him first or mourn for him first!
Although I really want to curse him to death, since he seems to be able to appease the Demon Lord with strange methods, I reluctantly hope that he can live for two more days.
Li Hanshuang finished eating his bun and reached out to take Li Baili's bun. Li Baili suddenly moved her hand away, taking the bun with her.
Li Hanshuang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Baili and blinked. There was confusion and doubt in his eyes, but no anger or dissatisfaction.
Li Baili stared at him for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "I was just joking with you, don't take it to heart, I can finish it, I don't need your help."
As she spoke, Li Baili took a big bite of the bun to prove that she was telling the truth. She showed Li Hanshuang the filling and the teeth marks she had left on the bun.
Li Hanshuang stretched out his hand and grabbed Li Baili's wrist with a half-smile, as if he was a little unhappy, or as if he was just looking for trouble. He pulled Li Baili's bun back and took two big bites out of it, so that only a little bit of the bun was left in Li Baili's hand, not even as much as two fingers.
Li Hanshuang chewed and swallowed hard, straightening her neck, staring at Li Baihe with eyes that had turned red at some point, and said, "I want to eat it! What can you do to me?"
Li Baili was stunned for a moment, half smiling, as if she was shocked, or caught off guard, but still with a hint of teasing, her true feelings were unclear, and she handed him the bun: "There are only a few left, if you want, eat them all."
Li Hanshuang stared at Li Baili, unable to tell for a moment whether he said that on purpose or was just fishing. He raised his eyebrows slightly, took another bite as if to show off, and then pretended to be disgusted and returned the rest of the bun to Li Baili: "You eat it! I can't eat any more!"
Li Baili raised his eyebrows and was about to open his mouth with a smile, but Li Hanshuang suddenly snatched his wrist and swallowed the whole bun. He chewed it twice and pulled him away. As if the prank was successful, he slowly smiled and explained, "I'm suddenly hungry again."
"Okay," Li Baili lowered her eyes and looked at the empty oil paper in her hand. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and felt helpless. She sighed slightly, but finally smiled. She was obviously happy, but her happiness was a little complicated. She murmured to herself, "Whatever you want."
Li Hanshuang groaned, pulled Li Baihe to the side, pointed at a clothing store, and said in a bossy but straightforward manner: "I want to go in and take a look, you accompany me."
Li Baili took a look at the shop's sign. It was magnificent and beautiful, showing great wealth and honor. The sign was huge and the font was elegant. It looked like a famous shop. She nodded and said, "Okay."
Li Hanshuang happily pulled him in.
As soon as I entered, a man who was not sure whether he was the boss, the housekeeper or the tailor, came out wearing a fine indigo-blue shirt with a golden "Fu" character on it, bending over with a warm smile on his face.
"What do you two want to buy? I'm one of the bosses here. We have ready-made cloth clothes, small gold and silver jewelry, and tailors. We can make custom orders, or you can just look around and buy something that everyone can wear. We also sell shoes, but they are all cloth shoes. There are fewer of them than clothes, but they are definitely genuine and of good quality. They are very respectable and durable." The boss said with a smile.
"Take me to see the ready-made clothes first?" Li Hanshuang glanced inside the store and said with his chin raised.
The boss nodded, showing no surprise, flattery, or contempt, and just said, "Please follow me."
He took Li Hanshuang and Li Baili to the second floor. This floor was filled with all kinds of ready-made clothes hanging on hangers, lined up in rows and crowded together, making it very lively.
"On the left are women's clothing, on the right are men's clothing, and the cabinets at the bottom are filled with shoes and socks," the boss smiled, "You have to pay for everything, so please don't touch them casually. If you accidentally damage them, the store staff can't afford to compensate you, so you can only let the customer buy it. If you run away with the order, we won't be polite either."
Li Hanshuang nodded, and slowly scanned the clothes with his eyes. He squinted his eyes and suddenly asked, "Do you have any recommendations for the best winter moon cloak?"
The boss was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashing with a desire for money, with a little excitement and respect, he slowly smiled and said: "I have a recommendation, it's at the back, in case the customer accidentally damages it, there is only one here, it's priceless, do you want to take a look?"
