Chapter 68: Can’t afford it

Chapter 3443: Can’t afford it

Liu Mingzhi looked at the shy expression on the beauty's pretty face and chuckled, adjusting her clothes on her chest.

"Don't worry, brother, I've just observed it and there are no pedestrians around for the time being."

When Ren Qingrui heard this, she whispered softly with sultry eyes.

"Bah, just because there was no one, it doesn't mean that no one has ever come over to spread the word.

If someone sees our situation just now, my sister, I will not be alive."

As soon as the beautiful woman finished her angry words, she quickly turned her head and looked around, fearing that someone around her was watching the two of them at this moment.

However, she looked around three or four times in a row, but she didn't find anyone around her.

When she was sure that there was really no one around, she immediately raised her jade hand and patted her proud chest a few times, and then let out a long sigh of relief with a relaxed expression.

It's great, it's so great, no one really came over, I'm really lucky.

Otherwise, if someone sees the intimate behavior between you and your sweetheart just now, how can you see others?

Looking at the beauty's behavior, Young Master Liu chuckled and shook his head, happily raised a finger and tapped his ear a few times.

"Girl, if you are so flustered, you are looking down on your brother's ears.

Don't forget, as a brother, I am in the innate realm now.

With my current realm and skill, if there are any footsteps within a hundred steps around me, it will not be hidden by my ears.

Otherwise, why do you think I would be so bold as a brother and kiss you directly on the street without any scruples?"

After hearing Young Master Liu's explanation, the beauty looked at her sweetheart in front of her and pretended to be unhappy, rolled her eyes, and whispered softly to herself again.

"Bah, you bad guy.

Just now you kissed me suddenly without any warning, my sister, my mind was confused.

For a moment, my sister, I was very nervous and scared. In that situation, how could I have time to think about these things?

If you had told me clearly in advance, would I still be nervous and at a loss what to do?

I don’t care, it’s your fault anyway.”

"Hehehe, okay, okay, it's my brother's fault, it's all my brother's fault."

When Ren Qingrui was about to say something, Young Master Liu suddenly raised his eyebrows and raised his finger to point to the street in front of him on the left.

"Girl, someone is coming, let's go."

After receiving the signal from her sweetheart, Ren Qingrui quickly took back the words that had reached her lips and nodded her head a few times with a slight smile.

"Yeah, yeah, here we come."

It took about ten breaths.

At the street entrance ahead, the sound of neat footsteps came first, and then a group of about 20 street patrol officers walked out amidst the neat footsteps.

Soon, Young Master Liu and Ren Qingrui passed by this group of Dalong soldiers who were patrolling the streets.

When the leader of this group of patrolling soldiers passed by Mr. Liu and Mr. Liu, he subconsciously glanced at Mr. Liu, and then immediately withdrew his gaze.

Young Master Liu seemed to feel something, and instinctively turned his head to look at the twenty soldiers walking past him.

Under Young Master Liu's somewhat strange gaze, a group of patrolling soldiers gradually walked away in neat steps.

If what I felt was correct, the look that the leader glanced at me just now was definitely not the kind of look he habitually used to observe passers-by around him.

If it was just out of vigilance and habitual observation of passersby's eyes, he should also observe the Qingrui girl next to him.

However, in his keen perception, the leader's eyes seemed to only fall on himself.

Could it be that this leader recognized himself?

Maybe so.

After all, he had commanded the army for more than ten years, and most of the officers and soldiers in the army were familiar with his appearance.

This leader may have recognized himself, which is indeed not a strange thing.

Ren Qingrui saw her sweetheart staring at the pair of patrolling soldiers who were gradually moving away, and approached Young Master Liu with a curious expression.

"Da Guoguo, what are you looking at?"

Liu Mingzhi withdrew his gaze, chuckled and shook his head.

"Hehehe, it's nothing. I just want to take a look at it."

"Oh fine."

"Girl, let's go, let's go fill your belly first."

"Hmph, it's as if you're not hungry, Daguoguo."

It took about half a stick of incense.

Young Master Liu and Ren Qingrui counted the approximate number of steps they had taken, and stopped outside a brightly lit shop with four or five tables of customers already sitting there.

Ren Qingrui raised her jade neck and looked at the signboard above the shop, then turned and looked towards Young Master Liu with a smile.

"Baiweilou, Daguoguo, this should be the place Shen Qi mentioned."

Liu Mingzhi raised his eyes and casually glanced at the signboard written in Dashiguo characters and Dalong characters above, and then looked at the steamer inside the store that was steaming with heat and exuding a rich fragrance, and nodded with a slight smile.

"If there is a steamer, it should be here."

"Daguoguo, let's go in and spread it?"

Liu Mingzhi nodded with a faint smile and walked directly towards the store.

"Hehehe, go in, go in."

Ren Qingrui took a deep breath of the rich fragrance in the air and quickly followed.

As soon as Young Master Liu and Ren Qingrui walked into the store, they were immediately greeted by a middle-aged man with a beard, about forty or fifty, and a smile on his face.

Although the middle-aged man has a full beard, his beard is trimmed very neatly, and he does not look like a very slovenly person.

He wiped his hands on the apron around his waist and gave Liu and Young Master a fist in the face with a smile on his face.

"You two military masters, what do you want to eat today?"

When the middle-aged man opens his mouth, he speaks fluently in Dalong.

When Liu Mingzhi heard this person's question, he raised his eyebrows strangely.

He probably understood in his heart that this man should regard himself as a soldier in the army.

Liu Mingzhi put down the lantern in his hand, roughly estimated the boss's age, and returned the gift happily.

"Brother, are you the owner of this store?"

When the middle-aged man heard Mr. Liu's rhetorical question, he looked stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.

The two people in front of them didn't know that they were the owners of this store, which meant that they were not regular customers of the store.

"Two soldiers... two distinguished guests from Dalong, I am the owner of this shop.

Two distinguished guests, is this your first time coming to our store?"

Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly, nodded, and pointed in the direction of Tianzhu.

"Hehehe, brother, we two brothers were just transferred from Tianzhu."

"It turns out that you two are military masters who have just been transferred from Tianzhu. I'm really sorry. I thought you were regular customers of the store.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please don't be offended by your two distinguished guests."

"Hehehe, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I don't mind being surprised. I'm being serious.

We two brothers heard from brothers in the city that the food at your house has the taste of our Dalong side.

No, it just so happens that we two brothers are not on duty today.

So, we two brothers came over to take a look."

"That's it, that's it. The two military masters please come in quickly."

"Okay, okay, you're welcome, you're welcome."

"Two military masters, what do you two want to eat?"

After Liu Mingzhi sat down, he turned his head and glanced at the steaming steamer not far away. He smiled lightly and looked up at the shop owner who was following him.

"Brother, what do you have to eat here?"

"Back to you two military masters, our breakfast here includes various kinds of steamed buns, various kinds of porridge, tofu curd and other foods.

Of course, if you want to eat all kinds of wine and food, I can arrange it for you right away.

It’s just that I need you two military masters to wait a little longer.”

When Liu Mingzhi heard what the store owner said, he chuckled and waved his hand.

"Brother, no need, no need. Just have breakfast in the morning. No need for food or wine."

"Okay, two military masters, our little shop has pork, beef, mutton, camel meat, leek and eggs, mushrooms and tofu... and other big buns with various fillings.

Porridge includes eight-treasure porridge, rice porridge, corn porridge, tofu curd, and other types of porridge.

I wonder, you two military masters, what kind of stuffed buns do you want to eat and what kind of porridge do you want to drink?"

After hearing what the boss said, Young Master Liu couldn't help but look stunned.

"What? Do you still have pork buns?"

The shop owner saw the expression on Mr. Liu's face and immediately knew what he was thinking.

"Hehehe, this military master, our family does not believe in Allah."

Young Master Liu nodded with a clear expression, chuckled and said: "Hehehe, so that's how it is.

Brother, let's do this, give us five meat buns and five vegetarian buns first.

We brothers don't have any dietary restrictions and can eat any kind of buns with any kind of fillings, just watch them.

Then, serve us two bowls..."

Young Master Liu paused and turned to look at Ren Qingrui.

"Girl, what kind of porridge do you want to drink?"

"Daguoguo, sister, I want to drink eight-treasure porridge."

Liu Mingzhi smiled lightly and nodded, then turned to look at the shop owner again.

"Brother, here's a bowl each of tofu nao and eight-treasure porridge."

"Okay, okay, two military masters, wait a moment, I will make arrangements for you right away."

The shop owner nodded with a smile on his face and hurriedly walked towards the steamer that was exuding a rich aroma.

"You two military masters, please wait a moment, I will prepare it for you immediately."

Ren Qingrui looked at the store owner who was running away, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed and she leaned towards Young Master Liu's side.

Then, she lowered her voice and whispered softly: "Da Guoguo, you are the king of our country in the Great Dragon Heavenly Dynasty, and your status is so noble.

Now, you actually call an outsider brother...

Daguoguo, your behavior seems inappropriate, right?"

When Liu Mingzhi heard this, he quickly winked at the beautiful lady.

"Silly girl, don't you understand the principle of doing as the Romans do when you're in the countryside?"

"Da Guoguo, sister, I'm not stupid, of course I know how to do as the Romans do.

But, after all, you are the king of our country, the Great Dragon Kingdom.

No matter how hard you try to do as the locals do, you still can't call an alienated person brother."

"Hehehe, silly girl, there is no historian here to record every word and deed of my brother and me, so you don't have to think so much."

"Daguoguo, but..."

Just as the beauty was halfway through her words, Young Master Liu interrupted her.

"Girl, there is no but.

The store owner has already come over and you are not allowed to talk about this anymore."

Ren Qingrui glanced sideways at the shop owner who was coming with a bamboo basket, immediately sat up straight and nodded gently.

"Oh, sister understands."

"Two military masters, these are the buns you want. You eat them first. I will bring you porridge and water right away."

"Brother, you're done."

"It should, it should."

Liu Mingzhi first picked up a plate of pickles for the beautiful lady, then picked up a fragrant steamed bun and put it on the plate in front of the beautiful lady.

"Girl, come on, come on, let's have a taste."

"Hmm, Daguoguo, you can eat it too."

Young Master Liu nodded happily, picked up a bun, blew on it, and took a bite.

"Yeah, authentic, authentic."

After Ren Qingrui took a bite of the bun in his hand, he immediately looked at Young Master Liu with a surprised expression.

"Woo hoo hoo, hoo hoo hoo, Daguoguo tastes really good. It's almost the same as the buns sold in Dalongjing."

"Hehehe, didn't you hear what Shen Qi said? The cooking skills in this shop were learned from the brothers in the Huitou Army.

The cooking skills I learned from the Huo Tou Army brothers are naturally not much different in taste."

"Yeah, yeah, Daguoguo, eat it quickly."

"Okay, you eat too."

After half a day.

Young Master Liu rolled his eyes slightly, took out five silver coins that had been exchanged half a month ago from his sleeves, and put them on the table with a smile.

"Brother, pay the bill."

"I'm coming."

The shop owner trotted to Mr. Liu's side. When he saw the five silver coins on the table, his face suddenly froze.

"Two military masters, this, this, this, this, this.

You two military masters, you two ordered a total of ten steamed buns and two bowls of porridge, not to mention five silver coins, even half a silver coin is useless."

Immediately, the shop owner looked nervously and raised his hands to Mr. and Mrs. Liu.

"Master Jun, if you don't have any copper coins with you, I'll treat you to this breakfast."

Young Master Liu looked at the nervous look on the shop owner's face, chuckled and raised his eyebrows.

"Brother, what do you mean by this? Do you think we two brothers don't want to pay?"

The shop owner looked panicked and shook his head hurriedly.

"No, no, I don't dare, I don't dare."

“Brother, what do you mean by not daring?

Could it be that among the soldiers in our dragon army, are there any people who eat breakfast at your place without paying?"

"No, no, Master Jun, you misunderstood.

Over the years, for the sake of my son-in-law, all the Dalongjunye who have come to our restaurant to eat have never failed to pay."

Liu Mingzhi smiled calmly, raised his hand and pushed the silver coins on the table forward.

"Hehehe, brother, in that case, I'll pay the bill for you, why don't you just put it away?"

The shop owner looked at the silver coins that Mr. Liu pushed over and waved his hand quickly.

"No, no, I won't hide it from you two military masters. My son-in-law, like you, is also a military master from the Great Dragon Celestial Dynasty.

Ever since he left the big woman, he has warned our family more than once that as long as a guest with a big dragon appearance comes to eat, we must operate with integrity.

Otherwise, he will be the first to spare me.

You two military masters, you two have eaten ten steamed buns and two bowls of porridge in total. You can give me thirty copper coins.

You gave me five silver coins right now, how dare you accept it?

If my son-in-law finds out about this, I really can't afford it."

"Is it that serious?"

"Yes, yes, you two military masters, I really can't afford it."
