Chapter 273 Grandma Yu Wants to Take in a Disciple
Faced with this table full of food without any meat, he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
If he had known that the canteen would only serve these, he would never have come. The braised pork ribs and roasted rabbit legs at home are so delicious! He must be crazy to come here to eat vegetable buns!
As he was muttering, suddenly a white and tender little hand was extended in front of him.
"Here, I'll share your egg yolk mille-feuille." Baoya held two pieces of egg yolk mille-feuille in her hand and handed them to Lin Huarong.
Lin Huarong looked at the two pieces of pastries with yellow egg yolk filling and couldn't help swallowing.
Seems good?
Baoya held up her little hand for a while, and when she saw that he didn't take it, she pouted and looked at him.
What's wrong with this little fat guy? Doesn't he like to eat?
This was what she brought back from the capital. It is Baidouxuan's signature pastry, and it sells for three taels of silver per pound.
Fortunately, she saw that Lin Huarong was big, so she reluctantly gave him an extra piece.
Just as he was about to pull his hand back, Lin Huarong finally came to his senses and took it happily.
He has never eaten this egg yolk mille-feuille!
The taste was soft and refreshing, sweet but not greasy, and better than any snack he had ever eaten before!
Lin Huarong ate up both pieces of cake in an instant. He was originally full of regrets, but now he was satisfied.
Looking at Baoya sitting next to him, eating the vegetable bun obediently, he seemed much more pleasing to the eye.
In fact, when he first came, he also looked down on this little girl.
They are just girls from the village who have never seen the world. It is annoying to see three girls chattering together.
At that time, he felt that Mr. Xiao Qi's academy should not accept children from the village, especially three girls. Wouldn't this lower their value?
Yucai Academy is a place where only children from wealthy and prestigious families like him, Fang Xian, and Xu Jiaojiao can come.
But unexpectedly, what happened afterwards gradually changed his mind.
A young lady like Xu Jiaojiao was defeated by a little girl like Baoya.
And, most importantly, this egg yolk mille-feuille is so delicious. Where did this little girl Baoya get it from?
A man who eats someone's food is soft-hearted, and a man who takes someone's money is grateful.
The little fat boy Lin Huarong now just wants to be friends with Baoya and ask her where she bought such delicious pastries.
Baoya didn't know that after this meal, she had inadvertently gained a foodie friend.
She was listening to Yunyue bragging to her eldest brother's classmate named Wen Caichuan.
If we talk about Xu Jiaojiao being kicked out of the academy, the person who would be happiest would be Yunyue.
Now, whenever she sees someone, she will confront Bao Ya and Xu Jiaojiao, and Qi Mo will bring up the matter of Xu Jiaojiao being kicked out of the academy.
Not only did they say that, they also exaggerated it. They praised Baoya very much, saying that at such a young age, she was brave and knowledgeable, and was not afraid of Xu Jiaojiao's threats, and protected Zhang Shun, who was several years older than her, blah blah.
In the end, even Yun Chengfu was helpless because of what she said. As soon as she opened her mouth, Yun Chengfu knew what she was going to say.
The group finally finished their lunch amidst Yunyue's nonsense. When they returned to the school, Fang Xian's face was completely dark.
Baoya knew that he was annoyed by Yunyue's noise, so she quickly ran after him and asked:
"Are you okay? Fourth sister is straightforward. She was just too happy that Xu Jiaojiao was driven away, that's why she acted like this."
Fang Xian shook his head and said calmly, "I think reading is better than eating."
Baoya: ...
The atmosphere in the afternoon classes was also very good. After class in the evening, Baoya and the other two said goodbye to Yun Chengfu and left the academy, heading straight to their own breakfast shop.
She also wanted to tell her parents about Father Zhang Shun.
As a result, when the three little girls returned to Yunji Breakfast Shop, they saw someone they hadn't seen for a long time, Grandma Yu.
Grandma Yu seemed to be here for afternoon tea. Qianqiong accompanied her, and the two of them sat at a long table in the corner of the shop.
As soon as Baoya entered the room, she saw the two of them and ran over excitedly, calling out, "Grandma Yu! Aunt Qiong!"
"Hey." Qian Qiong heard the voice, looked at them with a smile and responded.
Grandma Yu, however, remained seated, showing no reaction.
Baoya was stunned.
Yunhua and Yunyue beside them also shouted: "Grandma Yu, Aunt Qiong, why are you here?!"
Qian Qiong's face was gentle: "Madam Yu was craving your sweet tofu pudding, but unfortunately I came out late today and there was no sweets for sale in the afternoon, so I asked for some other snacks."
After she answered Baoya and the others, she quickly leaned over to Grandma Yu's ear and said a few words in a loud voice while making gestures.
Grandma Yu seemed to come to her senses and looked at Baoya and the others.
She raised a skinny hand with bulging veins and waved it towards Baoya and the others. Her voice was a little hoarse as she said, "It's you. Why are you here?"
Baoya frowned. Are Grandma Yu’s ears and eyes not working properly?
She remembered that the last time she saw Grandma Yu, her condition didn't seem to be so serious that she couldn't see people or hear sounds.
"Mother-in-law, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?" Baoya came over with some concern.
Yunhua and Yunyue also surrounded Grandma Yu closely.
"If mother-in-law is not well, I will deliver whatever she wants to eat next time." Yunhua said seriously.
Yunyue also said: "Yes, you can ask Aunt Qiong to buy it. If you miss us, we can also come to see you."
Grandma Yu smiled and shook her head, trying to open her eyes wide so that she could see the mouth shapes and expressions of the three little girls when they spoke.
"No need, I've been resting at home for long enough, I just want to go out for a walk."
"Oh well."
Baoya said, but she was inexplicably worried in her heart: "Has grandma seen a doctor? Doctor Sun from Yaoxiantang is very good at medicine."
"Ah," Grandma Yu sighed, "I know my own body. I don't need to see a doctor or anything like that."
Yunhua was puzzled: "Why don't we need to look at it? It will be fine after looking at it."
Granny Yu didn't answer, but said, "Actually, the most important thing I should do now is to take in an apprentice..."
When she said this, Baoya, Yunhua and Yunyue were all stunned. The three little girls subconsciously glanced at Qianqiong who was sitting next to them.
Qian Qiong was helpless and explained, "You don't have to look at me. My hands were crippled when I was young. It's been so many years since I could do embroidery."
"I'm afraid Madam Yu's unique skill in Suzhou embroidery is about to be lost."
Qianqiong looked regretful, but Baoya knew she couldn't agree.
Although she cooks delicious food and can make all kinds of novel and delicious pastries, she is really not good at handicrafts such as embroidery and bracelet weaving.
He looked at Yunyue, and Yunyue also shook her head slightly.
To learn embroidery, one must sit down steadily and learn stitch by stitch. Yunyue felt that she could not persist.
Besides, she really had no interest in embroidery.
The two were exchanging glances, but they didn't notice that Yunhua, who was standing quietly beside them, suddenly had her eyes brightened.
