Chapter 465: Night Tour of Jiangnan
Moreover, eating radish in winter is as good as ginseng, very nutritious!
The two are a perfect match!
Jiang Fubao gave Meng Bujiu a thumbs up.
He is a good baby who knows how to order food.
"Puchi." Jiang Fubao was so mischievous that Meng Bujiu couldn't help but laughed out loud.
"Try this vinegar fish again. I know you don't like sour food, so I asked the waiter to put less vinegar. It should be more to your taste." Meng Bujiu picked up another piece of vinegar fish with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.
Jiang Fubao was somewhat resistant. Although she had never eaten vinegar fish, she had been online before.
Netizens all said that even dogs wouldn’t eat this stuff.
It is the kind of dish you would regret not eating, but would regret even more if you eat it.
How dare she pick up her chopsticks?
But seeing that Meng Bujiu was staring at her, she had no choice but to pick it up and eat it.
"Huh? It's not bad?" Jiang Fubao was stunned.
The vinegar fish has tender meat and no earthy smell at all. The sweet and sour sauce is a perfect match, not too sour or too sweet. The cut fish meat is soaked in the soup, and the sour and sweet taste in her mouth hits her tongue back and forth with every chew.
Very amazing taste.
Not only is it not bad, I even want to have another bite.
Sure enough, rumors cannot be believed.
You have to experience everything yourself.
Jiang Fubao was inspired.
After tasting all the dishes on the table, her stomach was full.
Even burped.
There was still half left, and Meng Bujiu and Lingshan bought it all.
Fortunately, I didn’t have any rice, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to finish it.
After all the food on the table was eaten up, Meng Bujiu took them to settle the bill and leave.
"Let's go for a walk around Jiangnan City at night. It will help us digest our food." Meng Bujiu said.
"Okay~" Jiang Fubao responded quickly.
The four left the restaurant.
Walk into the streets of the main city.
There are lanterns hanging everywhere, of all kinds and colors. Although the candles in the lanterns are a little dim, there are so many of them that it's like there are street lights on both sides of the street.
Extra bright.
Even though it was already dark, the number of vendors did not decrease, but increased instead, and all the shops on the street were open.
At this time in Lianshan Town, there was basically no one on the streets except for officials and night watchmen.
It really is Jiangnan!
"Selling soup, hot soup——"
"Ceramic jars, big and small. Buy two big ones and get a small one for free~"
"Rice cakes, steaming hot rice cakes, fresh out of the pot, come and buy some!"
"Tanghulu, delicious Tanghulu——"
"Just made the sugar figurines, selling them cheaply."
"Mom, there are performances ahead, let's go and see them, or we won't be able to get a good seat."
"Sir, you didn't pay for the noodles you just had."
"......"
The small stalls on the street were full of people.
The voices of vendors mixed in, making the place chaotic and noisy.
The four of them walked in the opposite direction.
There was a huge crowd of people, all going to watch the circus.
Jiang Fubao didn't dare to look. After the last experience and Xue Huan still had a psychological trauma from this incident, they decided to go somewhere with fewer people.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the crowd finally became less crowded.
Jiang Fubao scratched his nose which was itchy from being brushed by the broken hair.
"Brother Bujiu, is today a holiday?" she asked.
"Even if it's not a holiday, Jiangnan is always so lively every night. People here are used to going to bed late." Meng Bujiu answered her.
"No wonder, if I were to encounter a lantern festival, I'm afraid my trouser crotch would be squeezed out." Jiang Fubao complained in a low voice.
Meng Bujiu didn't hear it.
The four of them came to a shop with peach pink lanterns hanging.
It has three floors in total, and the sign reads "Yi Ren Building".
There were seven or eight beautiful girls standing at the door, greeting customers.
Jiang Fubao understood immediately.
It seems like this is a brothel.
She had passed by the brothel in Lianshan Town several times. The girls there were simply incomparable to those here. Take her mother for example, one was getting old, while the other looked mature and charming despite her age. The fine lines at the corners of her eyes could not hide her charm at all.
Every frown and smile is very attractive.
No wonder she could be a brothel's mother, she must have been an oiran in the past.
After walking about a hundred steps, I passed by at least five brothels.
There are teahouses and kilns dedicated to listening to music. It seems that this place is the red-light district of Jiangnan City.
Jiang Fubao thought.
Another quarter of an hour passed.
The surrounding area became filled with people selling jewelry and clothes.
Jiang Fubao's attention was attracted by a jewelry shop.
Meng Bujiu simply took her in.
The name of this shop is very nice, called Silver Bell Exploring the Mysterious Place. The sign is also very beautiful, with the font painted in light pink instead of black lacquer or hot-stamped gold.
I don't know what it was dyed with.
The font is somewhat similar to regular script, but it is also quite rounded.
Look at the cute one.
The display of jewellery was something I had never seen before.
Unlike other jewelry shops, the jewelry is placed on the table for customers to choose.
All of Yinling Tanyou's jewelry is hung on the wall.
Even standing on the street outside the shop, you can see rows of jewelry from a distance, which is so tempting.
But women can't move at all.
Including Jiang Fubao.
"Please feel free to look around. If you like anything, tell me and I'll get it for you." There was only one woman in the jewelry shop, and she was neither fat nor thin.
There is a small mole on the tip of his nose. He looks generous and is probably a shopkeeper.
Seeing Jiang Fubao and three others coming in, she did not move from the counter, but just concentrated on rubbing the silver bars under the candlelight.
"Can I try on this dragonfly shackle?" Jiang Fubao was dazzled by the sight. Finally, she pointed at the shackle that was the size of two fingers and said.
These two steps are exactly the same.
It is probably worn on the left or right side of the bun.
Made of silver and gold sheets stacked together, the middle of the dragonfly's wings are hollowed out and covered with silver wire. In the middle is placed a very small ruby, only as big as a booger.
There is also a tassel of gold and silver under the dragonfly's wings.
I also made a spring.
As the shopkeeper took it down, it shook.
Jiang Fubao couldn't let it go even before he put it on.
"Okay, take a look, do you like it?" The jewelry shop owner brought a bronze mirror and asked Jiang Fubao to look at himself.
Two small dragonflies appeared above her head. As she shook her head, the dragonflies spread their wings and flew.
The tassels sway back and forth.
It's so beautiful that it makes me cry.
Where can you find such good stuff in the jewelry shops in Lianshan Town?
Jiang Fubao was truly eye-opening.
She wanted to buy it on the spot, but then she thought that since the workmanship was so good, the price must be very expensive.
She just asked cautiously.
"Excuse me, how much do these two shaking hands cost?" The shopkeeper replied immediately after he finished speaking.
"This step-shake was originally sold separately. There are only two of these. If you buy them together, I will give you a discount of two taels. The total is eighty-four. Oh, no, no, no, that doesn't sound good. Then, eighty-three taels."
People here seem to be very concerned about the number four.
I would rather earn less than bring bad luck to my customers.
