Chapter 44: Home
This cannot be blamed on Master Wang. When the small snack shop was selling new products, his students were more enthusiastic than each other. After seeing it many times, he guessed it. However, seeing that they were studying hard, he turned a blind eye. It seems that after school, he will have to ask Wang Guier to buy some for him. He doesn't know what will be made today, and he is a little greedy.
When the teacher said get out of class was over, the students rushed out with their things. Bao Ge'er and Ting Ge'er ran the fastest.
"elder sister!"
"Sister Zheng! What's going on today?"
"Look at the small blackboard yourself." Looking at these two, they probably ran away as soon as the get out of class was over.
Li Lei Ting saw what was written on the small blackboard: duck neck is six cents, duck wings are eight cents a pair, big duck legs are fifteen cents each, duck heads are two cents each, duck offal is ten cents a pound, and other duck meat is twenty cents a pound.
"Sister, I want duck legs and duck necks." He still likes to eat meat, but he knows that duck necks are more addictive.
"Okay, here you go. Brother Ting, have you made up your mind?" He was still struggling. "Well, how about trying duck neck and duck wings? I quite like them."
"Well, then I want a duck neck and duck wings."
"Okay, here you go."
Soon after, students arrived one after another. "Alright, you two, eat first. I'm busy now. Just walk around and don't stray too far."
"Yeah, I understand, sister."
"I understand, Sister Zheng."
Bao Ge'er and Li Leiting planned to walk around the neighborhood and solicit business for her sister. "Bao Ge'er, why don't you come to my house and play for a while?" Li Leiting thought that he often came to Bao Ge'er's house, but Bao Ge'er had never been to his house! And his parents also wanted to meet Bao Ge'er!
"Forget it, let's wait until the official ceremony. It seems a bit abrupt today, and I haven't brought any gifts yet!"
"Okay then, come to my house after you've rested."
"Yeah. Oh." Bao Ge'er touched his head and saw that he had bumped into someone. He quickly said, "I'm sorry, brother." Looking at the other person's white robe, he thought that it was fortunate that it was not dirty, otherwise it would be a big disaster.
"It's okay, be more careful next time." The man said in a gentle voice, indicating that everything was fine.
Bao Ge'er looked up at the man in front of him. Huh? Isn't this the person my sister saved before? "Thank you, brother." He didn't say much and left with Ting Ge'er.
The man did not miss the boy's puzzled expression. He looked at the small shop in front that was doing good business. However, it was a little strange compared to other shops. The shop opened a hole in the wall to buy things. When he saw the girl packing up in front, he knew he had come to the right place.
The subordinate next to him looked worried and said, "Master, your injury has not healed yet. You should go back and recuperate." Seeing that the master didn't say anything, he didn't dare to persuade him anymore.
"Okay, do you understand, Ayue?"
"Got it, girl."
"Okay, you do it. I'll go back." This A Yue is capable, but she needs some time to adapt. Suddenly, she felt a gaze, and it was obviously someone staring at her. When she turned around, it was the man in white that day. She didn't care and turned back.
The man retracted his gaze and said, "Let's go."
"yes."
Back at the mansion, "Young Master, it's time to take your medicine." The servant brought over a bowl of medicine. The man took it with his bony hands and drank it all in one gulp. "Maybe the Madam doesn't know yet."
"Sir, I don't know yet."
"Well, just keep it a secret. By the way, do you know who can use stones to penetrate people?"
"Sir, this..."
"Just tell me straight."
"Sir, most people in this world learn external martial arts. Only a very small number of people can use internal martial arts. And the internal martial arts that I know of can only make people faster, more agile, and jump higher than those who learn external martial arts. I have never heard of anyone being able to pierce people with stones."
"Well, go down." Is there no one?
Li Zheng looked back and thought, "This guy showed up so quickly today. He's definitely not an ordinary person." It seems like if this happens again, I'd better not care. If he shows up, I'll just deny it.
The shop has seen an unprecedented increase in visitors these days due to the duck products it sells. However, Li Zheng has handed over the duck product business to A-Yue, and has also introduced egg cakes, which are very popular with children. However, making egg cakes is a bit laborious, so they can only be sold in limited quantities each day.
These days, Li Zheng has been thinking about what snacks are popular among students. Of course, it is spicy strips. Cut the prepared noodles into long strips, steam them, and then mix them with the prepared secret sauce to make them more fragrant. Sugar is also added. Spicy strips are best when they are sweet and spicy.
Unexpectedly, these spicy noodles became a favorite among the neighborhood kids right after they launched. If their parents hadn't worried they wouldn't be able to handle it, they would have been eating them every day. Even Bao Ge'er, relying on the fact that they had them at home, would sneak in a few times. Although her recipe wasn't overly spicy, just a little spicy, she couldn't resist treating it like a meal. After that, she started strictly controlling their consumption.
During this time, she had received requests for egg cakes, but she declined. After all, she wasn't looking to profit from them just yet. Furthermore, the situation had become increasingly tense, with the city gates now restricted to only caravans and other groups. She'd therefore reduced her food offerings over the past few days, as she didn't want to stand out. The city was expected to be under martial law in a few days, and she had already seen a convoy transporting medicinal herbs. It seemed the lockdown was a good idea; the situation would be healed soon, otherwise there wouldn't have been any more rumors.
That day, Li Zheng was lying on a recliner when she heard A Yue's hurried footsteps, "Girl! Girl! Someone is coming."
"What's wrong? Why are you so scared?" I was lying there comfortably!
"Miss, there's a young man outside who's here! He's very handsome!" Could he be here to propose marriage? I'm so excited.
"Sir?" She didn't have any guests coming to her house. "Please come in first."
"Hey!" He ran over quickly.
A Yue opened the door and said, "Sir, please come in."
The man nodded and saw a wall in front of him as he entered the door. However, it was painted with plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, which was quite interesting. He walked into the small courtyard and saw a girl sitting on a stone table.
Li Zheng saw that this was the person she had saved before. He had come to her house. No, she couldn't admit it. If he dared to say it, she would give him amnesia drugs!
"Hello, girl."
"Hello, sir. I wonder what brings you here?" Li Zheng was not used to this tone of voice at this moment! It was so awkward!
"Miss, my last name is Wang Lang. I came here for the mint water that you gave my mother before. Today my mother is feeling depressed and out of spirits, so I came here specifically to ask how to make the mint water." He clasped his hands together and bowed.
She quickly dodged, this was unbearable, "Master Wang, there is no need for this, I will write you a prescription right away."
