Ji Mo looked at the jianbing guozi in his hand, perhaps still a little groggy from just waking up, and blurted out, "A jianbing wrapped around poop is even more delicious."
Chu Yang and the others: ...(?_?|||)
Cao Bin sighed, took out his cigarette case, distributed some cigarettes, lit one for himself, and his calm tone betrayed his inner turmoil: "Her husband is a gambler, an alcoholic, and abusive. Every day I see her setting up her stall with her weak body, morning and evening, and I want to drag that bastard out and beat him up!"
He gritted his teeth as he spoke: "Such a good woman, how could that son of a bitch have the heart to ruin her!"
Jiang Chao shrugged: "Boss, look, this guy's completely hooked."
Chu Yang smiled and said, "I'm quite interested in what that woman with the hand-pulled pancake looks like that has Cao Cao so infatuated with her."
"It's jianbing guozi," Cao Bin corrected again.
"Alright, go to class first. I'll go with you tonight," Chu Yang said.
"Really?" Cao Bin was overjoyed. With his boss's help, the success rate of this matter had greatly increased.
"Thanks in advance, boss. I'll treat you to dinner out tonight!"
“Then let’s go too!” Ji Mo and Jiang Chao said at the same time.
"On the condition that you don't eat jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes)."
"Yes, even if it's just a scallion pancake, that would be fine."
The four of them packed up, grabbed their textbooks, left the dormitory, headed to the teaching building, and began their day's classes.
At noon, Chu Yang went to the main campus to check on the renovation of the milk tea shop, had lunch with Li Qingshu, and then returned to the south campus to have lunch with Shen Li.
Li Qingshu and Shen Li were both puzzled; Chu Yang's appetite was only half of what it usually was...
After school in the afternoon, Cao Bin couldn't wait to urge Chu Yang to go see the young woman making jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes).
Ji Mo and Jiang Chao followed along.
Thus, the four of them, like the Four Great Talents of Jiangnan, made a dazzling appearance on the food street opposite the school.
"That's the stall?"
At the street corner, Chu Yang pointed.
"Yes, it's her!" Cao Bin's eyes were filled with infatuation, his DNA was restless.
Chu Yang picked up his camera, adjusted the focus, and secretly snapped a picture.
Then I looked at the preview image and zoomed in for a closer look.
A simply dressed young woman in her early twenties was seen setting up her stall.
She wore no makeup and her hair was casually tied back, yet it couldn't hide her fair skin and beautiful features.
The stall wasn't set up yet, but several boys were already queuing up next to it.
Whether a jianbing guozi tastes good or not is not important; what matters is watching the process of making it.
"Tsk tsk, Cao Cao, you have a good eye." Chu Yang praised.
Cao Bin chuckled: "Right? Otherwise, why would she be called the Pancake Beauty?"
Chu Yang pondered for a moment and said, "Given your current relationship with her, if she didn't have a husband, you could have made your move. So now there's only one problem left to solve."
As he spoke, he raised one hand, his expression cold, and made a throat-slitting gesture.
Cao Bin, Ji Mo, and Jiang Chao were all startled.
Ji Mo: "No way, it just shut down?"
Cao Bin: "Boss, this is my first time killing someone, I'm a little scared, but I can give it a try!"
Jiang Chao: "How about we just cripple his third leg and make him wish he were dead?"
Chu Yang said, both amused and exasperated, "What? I mean, sever their relationship, not take his life."
"So that's how it is, you scared me to death, boss." Jiang Chao patted his chest.
"Old Cao was just about to grab his knife and start hacking people to pieces," Ji Mo said.
Cao Bin chuckled and scratched the back of his head: "Just kidding, how could that be?"
Chu Yang smiled helplessly and said, "But the premise is that you have to respect the wishes of the hand-pulled pancake beauty. If she doesn't want to leave that man and is willing to endure it, then no matter how impatient you are, you can't go and provoke her again."
"It's a jianbing guozi, boss," Cao Bin reminded him.
Chu Yang nodded: "Okay, I need to get more information, such as the places that man frequents, his job, hobbies, and so on."
“He has no job, his hobbies include gambling and drinking, and all the money he spends is earned by Sister Junjun through hard work. There’s only one place he frequents: the Chengnan Seafood Market,” Cao Bin said.
"Seafood market?" Chu Yang didn't understand and asked in confusion, "What are you doing there, selling seafood?"
"Gambling on fish, shrimp, and crabs at the seafood market!" Cao Bin said.
"So that's what it is." Chu Yang immediately understood.
Fish, shrimp, and crab gambling, also known as Fish, Shrimp, and Crab Sic Bo, works on the same principle as Sic Bo, except that the numbers on the three dice are replaced with images of fish, shrimp, gourds, coins, crabs, and chickens. All bets are based on odds.
Chu Yang remembered that this type of gambling was once very popular among the people, and it was also a type of betting in casinos in Macau.
Of course, bookmakers rely on tricks and shills; gamblers who go there are basically just throwing money away.
“I understand. Let’s find some time to go there and take a look. Cao Laosan, have you seen that man?” Chu Yang asked again.
"I saw him once. He came to the stall and asked Sister Junjun for money, taking all of her daily earnings," Cao Bin sneered.
"Okay, let's go." Chu Yang walked out of the street corner.
"Where are you going?" Cao Bin was taken aback.
"Of course we'll go see what kind of person this scallion pancake beauty is, and whether she's worth our effort to save," Chu Yang said.
“Yes, what’s the use of being beautiful if you’re not good-looking?” Jiang Chao agreed.
Ji Mo spoke softly, "Actually, being this beautiful is quite useful."
"Get lost, you only ever think that way!" Cao Bin laughed and scolded, then said firmly, "Sister Junjun is kind-hearted, gentle and considerate, she's definitely my ideal type!"
