Bei Yutang tapped his nose lightly, "You are a little girl now."
Xiao Zimo was speechless.
Although it is a twisted logic, I just think what my mother said makes a lot of sense.
After both of them had cleaned up, Bei Yutang packed all the liquid medicine into wooden boxes and loaded them onto the carriage. She led the carriage out of the yard. It was still early, and there were not many pedestrians on the road, but the breakfast stalls were already set up.
When they passed by a pancake shop, Bei Yutang bought a lot of pancakes as dry food for the journey. She could have made them herself, but it was too time-consuming.
Bei Yutang went to the pastry shop again and bought some pastries and snacks for Xiao Zimo to satisfy his cravings on the way.
The carriage quickly left Baiyun Town and headed east.
Xiao Zimo couldn't sit still in the car, so he sat next to Bei Yutang.
"Mom, where are we going?" asked little Zimo.
"Linshui Town."
Xiao Zimo pondered for a moment and whispered, "Linshui Town is over two hundred miles away from Baiyun Town. It takes about four hours to get there by carriage."
Bei Yutang was a little surprised, "You know?"
"Yeah. Mo'er has seen it in books." Little Mo answered truthfully.
The two chatted on the way. Sometimes Bei Yutang asked questions and Xiao Zimo answered them. Sometimes Xiao Zimo asked questions and Bei Yutang answered them.
Seeing that the two people's topic was always about studying, Bei Yutang suddenly felt that Xiao Zimo's life was too monotonous.
"Mom, let me tell you a story. Do you want to listen?" Bei Yutang asked.
Xiao Zimo nodded, but his expression didn't show much interest.
Bei Yutang picked out a children's book she had seen in another dimension, but saw that Xiao Zimo looked indifferent and showed no interest at all. Bei Yutang immediately changed to another one and began to tell a fantastic story.
For example: Investiture of the Gods.
Now, the little Zimo, who had been careless just now, had a gleam in his eyes and listened attentively, completely attracted by the story she told.
The two chatted and laughed along the way, and the four hours were not boring at all.
When we arrived at Linshui Town, it was already dark outside.
Bei Yutang and Xiao Zimo found a medium-sized inn to stay in. After a good night's sleep, they went to the rouge shop under the Lei's Trading Company the next day.
When the guy saw that she was with a beautiful girl, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes, but he soon felt relieved.
"Sir, are you going to buy rouge and powder for your wife? The rouge and powder in our store are the best in the whole Linshui Town." The waiter said with a smile.
Bei Yutang asked, "Do you sell Ice Skin Cream in your store?"
The one who answered her was not the waiter, but the female customer next to her.
"Oh, I didn't realize you love your wife so much, but this Ice Cream is not something that everyone can use."
The waiter was afraid the woman would get upset if she continued, so he quickly said, "Sir, we don't have any Ice Cream left, not even in any other store in Kyoto. We've been out of stock for two weeks."
Bei Yutang nodded in understanding, "Hey guys, I want you to be the shopkeeper."
The guy was stunned and really wanted to refuse.
After all, the owner of their Lei's Trading Company is not someone that anyone can meet.
Before the waiter could refuse, Bei Yutang took something out of his arms.
The clerk glanced at the token and said with a smile, "I can't read, so I don't know what you have in your hand."
