Chu Qingcheng handed the menu to Qin Luo, resting her chin on her hand, "Junior Brother, order whatever you like."
Qin Luo handed the menu to the little dumpling, coughing as he clenched his fist, "Don't order too much."
"no problem!"
The little girl flipped through the menu, which had colorful pictures. Pointing to the dishes, she said, "Sister, this one, and this one..."
The maid quickly wrote down the names of the dishes.
That's enough.
"All right."
Qin Luo reminded her to stop, as she had originally wanted to order two more dishes.
The maid quickly brought out a table full of sumptuous dishes. Qin Luo picked up his chopsticks and tasted each dish one by one, but he didn't eat a second bite of any of the dishes he had tasted.
Chu Qingcheng looked at Qin Luo and said softly, "Junior Brother, do these dishes not suit your taste?"
"The food is delicious, as expected of a grand restaurant in the capital." Qin Luo praised generously, noting that the dishes he had eaten before were far inferior to those served in this restaurant.
"Then why don't you eat more?"
"Master said..."
"Stop."
Chu Qingcheng knew what Qin Luo was going to say.
"However, Master is right. When I first went to Longhu Temple, I was very weak. But since I started drinking peach blossom tea made with morning dew, I was able to punch Liang Yuan and kick Gu Changsheng in less than half a year."
Qin Luo held back his laughter.
Chu Qingcheng suddenly remembered something, "Did Liang Yuan and Gu Changsheng take any treasures with them when they ran away?"
Qin Luo didn't hide anything, "My two senior brothers almost demolished the Dragon Tiger Temple. They were expelled from the temple by our master. When Senior Brother Gu left, he took the only remaining command flag in the temple, and Senior Brother Liang took the decorative mythical beasts from the eaves. A brick was also missing from the temple, and we don't know who took it."
"A brick?"
Chu Qingcheng almost burst out laughing.
The little dumpling ate the food silently, and the dishes on the table disappeared at a visible speed.
After finishing the meal.
Chu Qingcheng bid farewell to Qin Luo.
Qin Luo took the little dumpling and bought some tools for making wishing lanterns on the street, mainly thin paper, which was very cheap. They took the tools back to Tiangan Academy.
Old Gao was waiting for them in the yard.
Seeing the little dumpling return, Old Gao came over carrying a pair of little red shoes. He bent over, his old face covered with wrinkles, his eyes full of joy. "Little fairy, I saw you weren't wearing shoes, so I bought you a pair. Do you think they fit?"
The little dumpling stared blankly at the little red shoes that Lao Gao was holding, not knowing what to say.
Seeing the little girl's expression, Lao Gao thought she didn't like the shoes. "I know Little Fairy likes to eat chestnuts, but I thought a pair of shoes can last a long time, which is more cost-effective than eating chestnuts, so I bought the shoes. I'll go exchange them for chestnuts now."
"I don't like chestnuts!"
"I want these shoes!"
The little girl took the little red shoes from Lao Gao's hand, and tears welled up in her eyes and dripped down her cheeks.
Qin Luo was somewhat surprised to see this scene. The little dumpling hadn't cried even after being beaten so badly. Last time, when he planned to send her back to the Purple Cloud Mountains, she ran back but only pretended to cry. Now, however, she was moved to tears by Lao Gao's pair of shoes.
When Lao Gao saw the little girl crying, he was at a loss. "Little fairy, don't cry. You can tell Lao Gao if you're unhappy about anything."
"Grandpa, I'm happy."
The little girl wiped away her tears with her sleeve. She felt ashamed because she hadn't thought of Lao Gao while eating delicacies at Juxianlou, but Lao Gao bought her shoes.
Little Dumpling knew that Lao Gao was very poor, and that buying these shoes must have cost him a lot of money.
Qin Luo looked at the little girl's tears and nodded with relief, knowing that she was very sensible now.
The little dumpling put on her little red shoes, grinned, and said, "Thank you, Grandpa, these shoes fit perfectly."
"Boss, do my shoes look good?"
"nice!"
Qin Luo nodded with a smile.
The little dumpling was wearing her newly bought red shoes. She walked lightly and quietly, like a sloth. Her adorable appearance made Lao Gao's eyes crinkle into slits with laughter.
