Chapter 14 Let’s go to Kelaixiang
Baoya took Ronghe's snacks, and it happened that Zhao Zhilan and the coachman had also agreed on it.
She took advantage of the fact that the coachman was drinking tea at the tea stall and not paying attention to this side, and made up a lie, saying that a few country men who were going to the city to do business just passed by and helped to lift the carriage.
The coachman had no suspicions and even felt guilty for hiding here to drink tea.
Zhao Zhilan solved the problem and was about to ask Baoya to go back and take the ox cart into the city, but she saw a little girl in a floral jacket and skirt coming out of the carriage, holding two large paper bags in her hands.
She quickly ran over, caught Baoya and held her in her arms, fearing that she would fall.
After hugging her, he asked, "Baoya, why did you get out of the carriage? What are these two big bags?"
Baoya told the truth: "Grandma, this is the red bean cake that Brother Rong gave me. It's delicious."
"Baoya, when we take things from other people, we can't take them for free." Zhao Zhilan said to Baoya in a serious tone, "When we buy something delicious later, you have to share it with others."
Zhao Zhilan didn't know why Rong He suddenly gave Bao Ya snacks, but she always attached great importance to the upbringing of her children.
As for Baoya, she knew that the snacks were a thank-you gift from Rong He for carrying the cart for her, but she couldn't tell Zhao Zhilan, so she had to agree obediently.
"Grandma, I'll remember that." The little girl nodded seriously. "Brother Rong and I have become friends. We'll sell some morels and buy some delicious food. Baoya will go and thank Brother Rong for the snacks."
"Oh, that's right." Zhao Zhilan pinched the little bun on Baoya's head with satisfaction.
Rong He, who was sitting in the car, originally heard the conversation between the grandfather and grandson outside the car and wanted to speak up for Bao Ya.
But when he heard Zhao Zhilan ask Baoya to buy something delicious to thank her, he didn't want to speak anymore.
He really likes this soft little girl, she loves to eat and is cute.
He himself has a poor appetite and has never liked to eat, but he especially likes to watch Baoya eat.
Its cheeks bulged and it finished a piece of cake in no time, like a cute little rabbit.
He was just worrying about how he would see Baoya next time, and now here is his chance.
Rong He held his chin with one hand, took out an exquisite jade folding fan from his arms, and knocked on the small table in front of him like a little adult, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Here, Zhao Zhilan held Baoya, greeted Li Rongyue, and returned to Qian Dacai's ox cart.
The Rong family's carriage in front moved away quickly, and their ox cart followed.
Yun Chenglu saw Baoya holding two large bags in her arms and asked in surprise, "Baoya, what are those things in your arms?"
"It's a delicious snack. Have some, second brother." Baoya was very generous. She handed one of the paper bags directly to Yun Chenglu and handed the other one to Zhao Zhilan.
"Grandma, Second Aunt, you guys eat too."
There were five or six pieces in one bag. Zhao Zhilan and Li Rongyue were reluctant to give them away and wanted to take them back to feed the other children at home.
Yun Chenglu was still a child after all. He took the paper bag, pinched a piece, put it in his mouth, and chewed it with big mouthfuls.
It’s sweet and sticky, and quite delicious.
"Baoya...where did you get this snack?"
Baoya held her chin with both hands, propped up her knees, and smiled: "Brother Rong gave it to me."
"Who is Long (Rong) Guoguo (Brother)?" Yun Chenglu paused chewing and spoke incoherently.
"That's the little brother sitting in the carriage just now."
Yun Chenglu: ...
The snack in his mouth suddenly didn't taste good anymore.
Baoya saw him stunned and was still wondering: "Second brother, what's wrong with you?"
Yun Chenglu almost choked to death.
I couldn't spit out the snack in my mouth, nor could I swallow it.
He hesitated for a long time before swallowing the snack in his mouth.
Then he stuffed the paper bag back into Baoya's arms.
Baoya was confused: "Why doesn't Second Brother eat it? Is it not delicious?"
Yun Chenglu blushed and said stubbornly, "I don't like sweet things."
"Oh." Baoya felt a little disappointed. Sweet snacks are so delicious, why doesn't her second brother like to eat them?
The group soon arrived at the city gate. Zhao Zhilan paid a copper coin per head to the guards at the gate, and only then were they allowed to pass.
Qian Dacai drove them to the town. He also brought some vegetables to sell. After talking to Zhao Zhilan, he went to the East Market where he often set up a stall. After Zhao Zhilan and the others finished their business, they came here to find him.
Zhao Zhilan and Li Rongyue led Baoya and Yun Chenglu along the bustling Pingkou Street in Anping Town. She actually didn't know where to sell these mushrooms.
It was Yun Chenglu who heard from his elder brother Yun Chengfu that this kind of mushroom was usually only affordable by wealthy families, so he decided to try his luck in a restaurant.
Ping'an County is not particularly big, and there are only two famous restaurants, one called Kelaixiang and the other called Yinkeju.
Zhao Zhilan didn't know which one to go to, so she told Baoya the names and let her choose.
"Ke Lai Xiang attracts guests," Bao Ya licked her fingers and tilted her head to think for a while, "Well, let's go to Ke Lai Xiang!"
"Okay, then let's go to Kelaixiang." Zhao Zhilan agreed readily and took Baoya's short hand.
Li Rongyue, who was standing by, was very curious and asked Baoya, "Baoya, tell my second aunt why you chose Kelaixiang?"
"Because the name has the word 'fragrant' in it, the dishes made here should be more delicious."
Baoya answered very seriously, and Zhao Zhilan, Li Rongyue and Yun Chenglu all laughed.
So the four of them went all the way to Ke Lai Xiang.
It was almost noon at this time, and there were many customers coming to Ke Lai Xiang to eat. Judging from their clothes, they were not ordinary people with nothing.
Li Rongyue was timid standing at the door, so Zhao Zhilan took the lead and walked in, holding the cloth bag containing morels in one hand and Baoya in the other.
The waiter was also very busy. Seeing that the girls were dressed simply and shabbily, he went to greet other customers.
After a long busy period, he came over to ask Zhao Zhilan and the others, "What would you like to eat?"
Li Rongyue was a soft-hearted person to begin with, and now she was standing behind Zhao Zhilan, not daring to speak.
It was Zhao Zhilan who spoke up again: "Hey, young man, we're not eating, we just want to ask if your restaurant will accept any of our food."
When the waiter heard this, he was surprised to see that you were selling things even though you weren’t eating?
He immediately frowned and said, "No, no, go to the east market if you want to sell your things. This is a place for eating, we don't accept anything."
She was rejected as soon as she opened her mouth. Seeing the waiter's impatient look, Zhao Zhilan felt embarrassed to say anything more and decided to take a few people to another restaurant to have a look.
Unexpectedly, when she pulled Baoya, Baoya just stood there without moving.
The little girl blinked and looked at the waiter who had just rejected them with a puzzled look on her face.
"You haven't even seen what it is, and you're saying you don't want it? What if your boss wants it?"
