Feeling her face burning, Xing Luxi blushed and incredulously managed to utter, "You pervert!" after a long while.
He should have jumped away immediately, but for some reason, feeling the gentle touch on his head, he didn't move. He just looked at Zhiyin with a resentful gaze.
"Cough... Okay, okay, be good!"
Zhiyin met Xing Luxi's incredulous gaze and listened to his furious words. She belatedly came to her senses and inwardly cried out her sins for actually flirting with such a respectable young man.
But will she admit it?
Of course not!
He only paused for a moment before calmly withdrawing his hand.
Xing Luxi belatedly realized what was happening and prepared to flee.
Halfway there, he suddenly snapped out of his reverie, staring intently at Zhiyin, blinking his big eyes at her, and shrugging, "My potato chips!"
"Okay, okay, go draw and pack the potato chips for your brother."
Zhiyin found it amusing and quickly instructed Zhihua to go, because the fish had already been completely divided up, and even the broth had been used by the guests to make rice porridge.
"Oh...okay, okay!"
Zhihua had been stunned by Zhiyin's actions from the beginning, and only when she heard Zhiyin call her did she finally come back to her senses.
However, those big, round, and strange eyes kept looking between Zhiyin and Xing Luxi, and saw that Zhiyin was not affected by what had just happened at all.
Xing Luxi, however, seemed to be still in an awkward situation, with her head down, looking like a timid wife. I couldn't help but chuckle mischievously.
Not to mention her, even Mu Lin's gaze towards the two of them was a bit off; there was a strange and eerie atmosphere brewing between them.
"Brother Xi, hehehe, were you just playing with Yinyin? When did you two become so close? Are you having a little secret behind my back?"
Seeing that Xing Luxi seemed to be lost in thought and looked a bit dazed, Mu Lin immediately poked his waist, winked at him, and smiled with a suspicious and cheeky expression.
Xing Luxi glanced furtively at Zhiyin, and seeing that she showed no embarrassment whatsoever, she straightened up and gave Mu Lin a dismissive look. "What do you mean?"
After saying that, seeing that Zhihua had given him all the potato chips, he immediately took out a string of copper coins from his bag and handed them all to Zhihua.
Then, as if remembering something, her face flushed red again, and as if something was chasing her, she darted away in a flash.
"Brother, I haven't given you your change yet!"
Zhihua stared in disbelief at the copper coins in her hand, then quickly waved and shouted at Xing Luxi, even preparing to chase after him.
Xing Luxi waved her hand without turning her head, and her voice carried on the wind, "No need to look anymore, consider the extra as payment for the boiled fish and sticky rice."
"Hey, Xi-ge, why are you running so fast? Wait for me!"
Mu Lin was dumbfounded. When he looked up, he saw Xing Luxi's long legs almost leaving a blur. His lips twitched violently. He quickly threw the money to Zhihua and chased after her.
Zhihua: ?
Zhihua looked at the two strings of copper coins in her hand, then turned helplessly to Zhiyin, "Sister, this..."
Should we accept the money or not?
At the same time, he was amazed to himself, thinking that Xing Luxi and Mu Lin were indeed young masters from wealthy families, they were really rich!
Zhiyin took a moment to look at it and inwardly exclaimed that the two were the landlord's foolish sons.
After all, one string of cash is equivalent to 1,000 copper coins! That's about one tael of silver!
That's awesome!
They earned an extra tael of silver!
While inwardly praising the two for being such easy targets, she also decided to reciprocate their kindness. Since they liked chili oil, she would give them a small amount.
Thinking of this, she smiled at Zhihua and said, "Painting? It's alright, keep it!"
Then, looking at the last person in front of him, he scooped the last small clump of sticky rice for him, clapped his hands, and said with a smile, "Done! Come back tomorrow if you want more!"
"Oh, is that all? Not even enough to fill a tooth gap!"
The man looked at the small lump of glutinous rice in the bowl, barely enough for two mouthfuls, and shook his head in disappointment.
Zhiyin didn't care about his complaints, just smiled and poured all the remaining side dishes into its bowl. "Make do with this, come again tomorrow!"
"Okay... thank you, boss!"
Seeing that his confidant was smiling, the man didn't press the matter further.
Immediately afterwards, Zhiyin and Zhihua busied themselves packing potato chips and delivering them to others.
Many of the potato chip buyers are regular customers who bought them yesterday, and they were the biggest buyers, with each person buying at least five packs.
Many people, seeing the large crowd, came out of curiosity and reluctantly bought a pack to try it out.
The queue was so long that it was incredibly busy.
Later, the man who sold donkey rolls, who had been watching them in awe of their booming business, came to help pack the rolls when he saw that he had no customers.
After working for about half an hour, all the potato chips were sold out.
"My goodness, I've never seen such a crazy crowd in my life! Is it really that delicious?"
Recalling the grand scene of the densely packed queue just now, the man wiping the fine sweat from his forehead asked with a look of envy and curiosity.
Zhiyin smiled and said, "I'll come and let you try it tomorrow! Thank you for your help, brother."
Suddenly, she slapped her forehead and quickly handed the bowl of glutinous rice that she had hidden earlier to her older brother.
A little embarrassed, he said, "Brother, this is the sticky rice I promised you to try. It's a pity I didn't have time to pack the fish. I'll definitely let you try it tomorrow!"
Wow, girl, you actually kept a bowl!
The man who had been rolling in the donkey roll was surprised to receive it, laughing heartily with gratitude in his eyes.
After all, he had just witnessed the customers' frenzy; they hadn't even spared a single grain of rice or a drop of soup.
Unexpectedly, even under these circumstances, his confidant still left him a bowl of glutinous rice. This is so touching!
After he finished speaking, he smelled the delicious aroma of the glutinous rice, couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and couldn't wait to start chewing it.
Wow, it smells so good!!!
As he ate, he kept giving a thumbs up, his eyes filled with amazement. At the same time, he finally understood why so many people flocked to it.
It smells so good!
Zhiyin smiled and began to enjoy the donkey roll with Zhihua.
This is authentic handmade donkey roll, soft and chewy, and not too sweet overall. Anyway, she loves it.
After finishing their meal, the two quickly cleaned up the table and all the dishes and utensils, put them in the mule cart, and then prepared to leave.
"Let's go draw, let's go get the peeler first."
Zhiyin looked at Zhihua and said with a smile.
"Okay, sister."
