After touching the stone monkey, the two were about to go to the snack stalls when they saw folk performers performing lion dances, land boats, and stilt walking at the flower festival. A group of people, dressed in strange costumes, were walking towards Baiyun Temple in a lively manner.
In the middle of the road was a performance troupe, with gong and drum teams in front and behind, beating gongs and drums and blowing suonas. Many people watching the performance followed on both sides of the road. Seeing the crowd moving this way, Gu Chengfeng hurriedly pulled Su Nuan and stepped aside, otherwise they would be squeezed at the door. There were too many people, and it would be easy for something to happen if they rushed in.
The two men stood by the road, waiting for the main force to enter the temple.
Su Nuan: "Are they going in to watch a performance or something?"
Gu Chengfeng "will go to Guanli to burn incense and then start the parade and performance"
Su Nuan: "I see. I'm a little hungry. Let's go to the market stalls and find a snack bar where we can sit down and have a rest. They will go through that side of the parade later, right?"
Gu Chengfeng nodded. "Yes, they will go that way. Let's go eat something first."
The two walked to the market, found a relatively crowded stall, and sat down at an empty table.
After a while, the boss came over with the menu and took their order.
Boss: "Comrades, what would you like to eat?"
Gu Chengfeng: "Nuannuan, is there anything you want to eat?"
Su Nuan took a look at the menu and said, "I want a bowl of tofu pudding, a fried dough stick, and a plate of pea yellow."
After saying that, he handed the menu to Gu Chengfeng.
Gu Chengfeng said to the boss, "A bowl of bean juice, two fried dough sticks, and a plate of pan cake."
The boss said, "Okay, please wait a moment."
Soon the food they ordered was served. Su Nuan watched Gu Chengfeng calmly drinking the gray-green douzhi. In her previous life, when Su Nuan first came to Beijing to study, she followed her classmates to try the famous douzhi. The taste was unforgettable, sour and smelly, and really hard to swallow.
Looking at Gu Chengfeng who was drinking very happily, he couldn't help but ask, "Is it delicious?"
Gu Chengfeng: "It's OK, but it's not sour enough."
Su Nuan said nothing, drinking her own salty tofu pudding and eating pea yellow. The pea yellow melted in her mouth, sweet and refreshing, not too sweet or greasy, very delicious. She also tried the pot cake, which was glutinous with the fragrance of red dates, and sweet, and also very good.
While the two were eating, the boss came over with his family of three and said.
"Comrades, I'm sorry, there are no seats left. Would it be okay for these people to share a table with you two?"
Su Nuan nodded and said, "Okay, you guys take a seat, there's still room here."
As he invited the family of three to sit down, the man spoke first.
"Thank you both, there are too many people at the temple fair today. My child is a little tired, so I brought him here to eat something and rest."
Gu Chengfeng: "Oh, it's okay. There are too many people. It's normal to have no seats. You're welcome."
After nodding to the two men, the woman ordered some food from the boss.
Their child is not very big, a boy, about 4 years old. He is very well-behaved. He looks at the delicious and soft snacks on the table. Although he is a little greedy, he does not make any noise.
Su Nuan thought the little boy was very cute. Although he was obviously a little greedy for snacks, he still stayed obediently beside his mother. So she wanted to tease him.
"Little boy, what's your name and how old are you?"
The little boy replied in a baby voice, "Beautiful class, my name is Congcong, I am 4 and a half years old this year"
Su Nuan: "Cong Cong is so good, sister will give you pea yellow as a reward."
As she spoke, she picked up the pea yellow and handed it to the little boy. The little boy didn't take it and looked at his mother.
The woman took the pea yellow and said, "Cong Cong, what do you want to say?"
The little boy said: "I want to say thank you, thank you beautiful sister"
Su Nuan: "Your children are so well behaved"
The man said happily, "It's all because of his mother's good teaching."
It was obvious that the family of three was very happy. Soon their food was served, and Su Nuan and the others finished eating. After paying the bill, they said goodbye to them and continued to stroll around the temple fair.
