"Miss He, are you going to check out?" The inn shopkeeper was stunned for a moment. He had put the abacus bead in his hand wrong, but now he didn't care about settlement and looked outside with caution.
The shopkeeper deliberately lowered his voice, "Miss He, I'm saying that I'm heartbroken. Liu County is not far from the capital city, and the carriage is only half a day. But there are mountains on both sides of the official road, so the road will not be peaceful."
"Thank you for your reminder." He Nuan thanked with a gentle smile. She understood the meaning of the shopkeeper's words. The matter in Liu County was not finished. If he left like this, the shopkeeper was afraid that something would happen halfway.
"Brother He is very skilled in martial arts, but as the saying goes, the strong dragon cannot defeat the local snake." If the shopkeeper hadn't had some kinship with Mr. Zhao, he wouldn't have said this to He Nuan. If he said it, it would be equivalent to offending Cheng
County lieutenant.
Especially Captain Wang and his team are now resting at home with their legs broken. If he knows, it will be not easy for the shopkeeper to run the inn with a simple simplicity.
"I will tell the lady." He Nuan thanked again, but still retired the three rooms. He lived there for only ten days, but spent thirty taels of silver. No wonder the people in Liu County said that
Those who live here are either rich or noble. Ordinary people only save ten taels of silver a year, and they will be gone for ten days after three years of deposit.
In the room on the second floor, Zhan Feiyu had just revised the Cewen he wrote yesterday. When he heard the door opening, he asked without raising his head: "All have been done?"
"My brother is checking the carriage, what do you have to explain to you?" He Nuan checked the house, packed up his luggage and put it in the box. It was more than half an hour before departure. He Nuan planned to go out and buy some first.
Put the ingredients on the carriage.
Liu County is close to the city and can be arrived before dark, so He Nuan just plans to buy a little bit, and this meal at noon will probably be solved in the carriage.
The weather is hot, and fresh vegetables, fruits and melons can still be kept for two days. As for meat, there are mountains on all sides of Liu County. You can go to the forest to hunt a rabbit or pheasant.
"Go out together." Zhan Feiyu stood up and moved his shoulders hard because he was at the desk. "These two days have been quiet and I just can go out for a walk."
Zhan Feiyu originally thought that County Magistrate Zhu or Master Zhao would take action, but his wife was just like nothing had happened before. Zhan Feiyu didn't plan to stay in Liu County anymore.
Whether someone will intercept it halfway depends on who has great ability.
Two quarters of an hour later.
In the bustling street market, He Nuan pointed to the shop diagonally opposite, "Miss, that's Zhao's pastry shop. Do you need to buy some to eat on the road?"
Zhan Feiyu continued to walk forward along the flow of people, "The people in Liu County are indeed richer than other places. Before Siyu, the shops are full of people."
If it is other places, the most people go to the morning market to buy vegetables at this time, and then there are shops selling buns and steamed buns and other breakfasts, and people will come and go.
But Liu County is different. Looking around, there are customers entering and leaving the shops along the street, and there are all kinds of selling, which also shows that the people are not short of money.
"Please come from the two guests. The cold cakes I just made today will clear the heat and relieve the heat." The guy at the pastry shop greeted him diligently, and there were cold cakes for guests to try on the plates on the counter.
"Madam, can you try it?"
"No." He Nuan refused and signaled that the guy didn't need to greet him anymore. Then he said: "Miss cold cake is made of lotus leaves and lotus seeds. It is not sweet and has a sweet taste. Here is
Mung bean cake, next to it is horseshoe cake..."
The inn's kitchen is simple, so He Nuankong has the skill of making pastries but can't make it. Besides, the weather is hot every day, and the pastries he made for a few hours will be broken in less than two days.
So it's more convenient to buy it at the shop.
Just when Zhan Feiyu was planning to buy a few pieces of pastry, there was a sudden curse and howling outside the shop.
"Your black-hearted shop almost killed my mother. There is no kingly law in this Liu County. The pastries in this shop cannot be eaten..."
The sudden howling sound, not to mention Zhan Feiyu was shocked, several women who were planning to buy pastries were also scared and took two steps back. When they heard that the pastries were almost eaten to death, who would dare to buy them?
The guy who was greeting the guest was stunned for a moment, then yelled in anger, "What are you talking nonsense here? Our Zhao family pastry shop is a ancestral craft. It has been open in Liu County for decades, and there has never been a piece of pastry.
He's badly eaten!"
It’s not that the guy is angry. This is what the shop that makes food is afraid of. This is what is spread to you. Who would dare to come to the shop to buy pastries in the future?
The woman with a round face on the left also spoke with help: "Brother, have you made a mistake? My family lives in this alley. My mother and her mother started buying pastries in this shop, and they will be there during festivals.
I bought a few kilograms during the Chinese New Year, but I haven’t eaten a broken piece of pastry in so many years.”
"Thank you, Sister Liu, for speaking up for justice." Zhao Ling, who heard the quarrel, hurried over from the backyard, bowed to Sister Liu with gratitude, and then walked to the door of the shop and spoke loudly.
"My Zhao family's pastry shop has been opened in Liu County for three generations. Not only Liu County, but also in several adjacent counties, including Fucheng, have my Zhao family's pastry shop. The ingredients used by Zhao family to make pastries are all
The best thing is, if you don’t believe it, you can go to Huangji rice shop in front to ask Boss Huang. All the rice, beans and sugar used for pastries were bought from Boss Huang’s shop.”
Standing at the door of the shop, an old woman holding a basket to buy groceries, nodded in agreement, "Old woman, I'll say fairness. Zhao will never do a bad business. Every month and at the end of the month, the shopkeeper Zhao will be almost broken.
The lost pastries were sold at a low price. My old woman and my family were poor. A few grandchildren and granddaughters relied on the pastries sold by Zhao. "
It’s fine if the weather is hot in summer, but in autumn and winter, the pastries will not break even after being left for a month, at most they will have a much worse taste.
But the Zhao family pastry shop has been like this since its ancestors. Once the taste of the pastries becomes worse, they will be sold at a cost price.
In this way, many poor people are willing to buy a few pieces of pastries. After all, the price is much cheaper, and the taste is just a little worse.
If you make some pastries and food at home, you will keep them for more than a month and eat them slowly. Poor families are not as particular as those nobles, but they will be grateful if they have stuttering.
The people watching the shop also said that the pastries sold by Zhao are indeed cheap and cheap. They buy more during the holidays and get more gifts. They have eaten so many pastries from Zhao's shop.
I have never heard of anyone suffering from a stomachache.
The middle-aged man standing at the door was now angry, and he suddenly walked up the steps and grabbed Zhao Ling's clothes, questioning with a slight slight question: "My mother is still lying in the clinic now, and the doctor said that I'm lucky.
The delivery is timely, otherwise my mother will die. She ate your pastry in the morning and then started vomiting and diarrhea. Could it be that the pastry in your shop is broken?"
The voice became louder and louder. When the man thought of lying in the clinic, he had less breath and more breathing, his eyes turned red. He suddenly raised his fists and smashed him into Zhao Ling's face, and his roar was exhausted.
At the same time, "If my mother has a few things, I will burn your shop with a fire!"
"How do you hit someone? Let go of my shopkeeper!" The young man rushed over in a hurry, but unfortunately the man pushed the young man away with just a wave of strength.
Zhao Ling, who was punched, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and he didn't care about the pain. No matter whether the person was saying true or not, he had to control the situation first.
In the shop, Zhan Feiyu walked out from behind He Nuan, looked at the two people confronting at the door, and observed for a while, "A Nuan, is that a Jianjiazi?"
"The breath is heavy, the punches are not organized, and the downward movement is not stable. I guess I often do heavy work, so I have great strength." He Nuan shook his head. This man looked like an ordinary person.
Zhan Feiyu didn't speak anymore.
Zhao Ling finally broke free from the man's clamping, and there was no anger on his red and swollen face. Instead, Chen Ken said: "Brother, I can guarantee that the pastries in Zhao's shop are fresh, but the old lady has a pastry disease.
It’s over, let’s not talk about the other things. I’ll accompany you to Yi Guan. No matter how you treat the old lady, we will talk about the others later.”
