They had already started researching other pastries a while ago and had successfully developed them, but were just waiting for the time to launch them.
"So, are you willing?"
Qin Shu looked at the person in front of her, biting her lip, her eyes full of entanglement. After a long while, she said, "Can I think about it again?"
"Okay. But we will leave Tangzhou Prefecture tomorrow morning. If you have made up your mind, you can come find us tomorrow morning." Zhang Xiuyuan told her the name and location of the inn, as well as the time they were leaving.
"Well, I'll remember that. I'll think about it carefully." Qin Shu said, stuffing the remaining cakes in his arms to the two of them. "Thank you, I, I'll go back first."
After saying goodbye, the little girl left, her figure lost in the bustling crowd.
Zhao Chuchu took out another piece of cake from the oil paper and gave it to Zhang Xiuyuan, humming, "How come I didn't know we were still in need of a pastry chef?"
In fact, they did lack pastry chefs some time ago, but they have already found one.
Zhang Xiuyuan said this simply because he was thinking of Qin Shu's current situation and felt sympathy for him.
My little husband is just too soft-hearted.
After visiting the temple fair, the two returned to the inn. After confirming that Zhang Xiulin had returned, they washed up and went to bed.
…
The next day, the carriage stopped outside the inn and the three of them prepared to leave Tangzhou Prefecture.
"You just stay in the carriage. I'll go there to buy some sesame cakes. It's not far away." They heard that the sesame cakes from a He's restaurant in Tangzhou Prefecture were delicious that morning, so the three of them wanted to try it.
Zhao Chuchu originally wanted to buy it, but she didn’t get enough rest last night and was not in a very good mood.
Zhang Xiuyuan asked her to rest in the carriage while he went to buy some sesame cakes.
Thinking that He’s Shaobing was not far away, Zhao Chuchu did not refuse.
Soon Zhang Xiuyuan arrived at He’s Shaobing.
It was a stall run by a father and daughter. Probably because the sesame cakes were delicious, there were a lot of people queuing up.
Zhang Xiuyuan also lined up and when he was bored, he casually glanced around.
Not far away, I saw a person who was dressed in rags and was dirty. It was even hard to tell whether he was a man or a woman. He was kicked out of the restaurant.
"Who are you? How dare you sneak into our kitchen and steal things? I will beat you to death if you dare." The middle-aged woman picked up the broom and hit the man again and again.
The person struggled, but seemed to have little strength and could not resist. She could only shrink back after being beaten. Her legs seemed to be broken, and she was dragging them when she dodged.
The middle-aged woman finally finished fighting, vented her anger, spat, and went back to the restaurant.
The man collapsed on the ground, motionless, as if dead.
People passing by chose to ignore it.
Zhang Xiuyuan hesitated for a while and walked over.
It was not until he got closer that he realized that the man was not only dirty and had messy hair, but his injured leg was still bleeding and there was even a faint foul smell.
He heard the man's stomach growling with hunger.
Zhang Xiuyuan shouted a few times, but the man just moved a little and had no other reaction.
Zhang Xiuyuan thought for a moment, then stood up and left.
Just as he was leaving, the man raised his head. His facial features were unclear, revealing only a pair of dark eyes. He looked at Zhang Xiuyuan's departing back. His eyes were as indifferent as stagnant water. He just glanced at him and collapsed to the ground again.
Until the sound came again from above.
"You must be hungry. This pancake is for you. You can use this change to treat your legs." The boy's voice was clear and clean, like a mountain spring.
