Chapter 250 Sweet and Sour
after dinner.

Gu Yingying carried the food box given by the waiter in the shop, so that she could bring the pastry and roast chicken to the room for sister Xinlan to eat.

But after going upstairs, I heard the second brother walking behind say:

"Sister, you bring me the food box. Wait a moment, and I will ask your second sister-in-law to deliver the sesame seed cakes and other food to Sister Xinlan. It is the first time you have come back to the imperial city, so you can take advantage of it. , just wander around the neighborhood, and enjoy the scenery. Along the way, Zhao Xun will protect you."

Gu Yingying looked embarrassed, if she went out to see the scenery, it would be a pity not to bring sister Xinlan with her, wouldn't it?

"Second Brother, why don't we all go out to see the scenery? You see, Sister Xinlan, I haven't visited for quite a while."

Although Gu Yingying said so, she handed the food box to Gu Rongjie's hands with both hands.

As soon as she handed over the food box, Gu Yingying felt a lot more relaxed, and quickly went downstairs, walked out of the hall, and went to see the night view of West Street.

As soon as she came out, Gu Yingying saw a restaurant on the opposite side, many people were queuing at the door of the store, but they didn't talk about anything.

When she was in Jinxia Prefecture, she and Sister Xinlan went to buy pastries at the restaurants on the East Street, and they also queued up.But like the people waiting in line on the imperial city side, it is rare to stand there without speaking.

So I stopped and watched for a while.

A deep and magnetic male voice came from behind Gu Yingying:
"Yingying, the mung bean soup in the restaurant opposite is delicious, do you want to try it?"

"Okay." Gu Yingying was also curious about how delicious the food would be with so many people queuing up to buy it.I also want to try it.

"Come with me." When Zhao Xun spoke, he had already come to Gu Yingying's side, thinking that only in this way could he protect her properly.

Before dinner, he suggested to Gu Rongjie that if he wanted to, he would take the big guys out for a stroll.
When I saw something delicious, I bought some and went back to try it.

After hearing this, Gu Rongjie said to him very sincerely:
"Tonight, don't let the big guys go out to play. Think about it, on the passenger ship a few days ago, you could only walk around on the ship, and it was a bit restricted. Everyone else has been to the imperial city, so it's okay Get used to it. It’s my younger sister’s first visit to the imperial city, so I don’t know if she’s tired or not, but do you still want to come out to see the scenery?”

"Second brother, as long as Yingying wants to see the scenery, no matter where it is, I will take her to see it." Zhao Xun has already noticed that Gu's second brother is intentionally hinting at him:

As long as you are willing, you can protect my sister and take her to see the night scene.

I am grateful to Brother Gu in my heart.

But after the meal, seeing Gu Yingying carrying a food box, she walked out of the private room without saying a word to him, and her heart immediately felt cold.

Gu Rongjie, who was sitting beside him, patted him on the shoulder before standing up, and told him with his eyes:
Come on, I'll help you.

Zhao Xun thanked Gu Rongjie with his eyes, and had great confidence in this friend.With the help of friends, I believe that Yingying, who is reluctant to come out to see the night scene, will come out after listening to Gu Erge's persuasion.

In fact, it would not be good for the stomach if you went to take a bath and rest just after dinner.Didn't Yingying tell his mother about this when she was still in Jinxia Prefecture?

Zhao Xun thought to himself, if Yingying doesn't want to go to see the night scene, she should go to Gu Rongjie and tell Second Brother Gu what Gu Yingying said.

"Heh, I want to know, why don't the guest officials who come here to line up to buy food not speak?"

Gu Yingying's pleasant voice came, interrupting Zhao Xun's thoughts.

Within two seconds, he regained his composure and answered Gu Yingying:

"Perhaps everyone knows that there are a few restaurants on West Street, not as many as bookstores. The guest officials who go to buy food may not all be from the imperial city. Even if they want to Communication, I'm afraid it's hard to understand, their respective native dialects..."

Although this answer may not be the correct answer in the eyes of others.

But in his opinion, it was already the real answer.

"In the past, I mean, before I got a strange disease, I also studied in the academy near Mohu Lake. After school, I would come to West Street with my classmates and friends to line up, buy some pastries and even try it. .To be honest, the shopkeeper of this store is not bad, and the herbal tea and pastries are good, and they are not expensive.”

After hearing this, Gu Yingying asked curiously:
"When you say it's not expensive, do you mean it's compared with the price of pastries in Jinxia Prefecture, or compared with other places?"

1 Logically speaking, in Dajingyouguo, the cakes in the imperial city should be the most expensive.

There are both expensive and cheap pastries in Jinxia Prefecture.It depends on how you choose.

Zhao Xun felt embarrassed in his heart.

How can Yingying answer this question?
For a long time, he thought that the pastries sold in the restaurants near the Lanjiang port in Jinxia Prefecture were even more expensive than those in the imperial city.

But Yingying carried the burden and went out to sell tea, and sister Xinlan went to sell pastries, but they were not too expensive.

"When I say not expensive, I mean that the cakes sold in the restaurant across from Liangcheng, the entire imperial city, are considered cheap. At least the cakes sold in the restaurants in the port are even worse. Much cheaper."

Zhao Xun answered truthfully.

After hearing this, Gu Yingying nodded knowingly.

Knowing the implication of Zhao Xun's words, it is still said that the food in Jinxia Land is not cheap.

It's no wonder that she and sister Xinlan went out to sell pastries with the burden.Whether it is in the port or on the East Street, it is not as easy to sell as tea.

She thought to herself, after she tasted the mung bean soup from the restaurant opposite, when she and sister Xinlan went back, she would make some cheap and good food to eat and sell.

Gu Yingying followed Zhao Xun, keeping half an arm's width away from him, and went to the restaurant opposite.

Zhao Xun went to line up, and she was waiting by the side.

I saw the lanterns hanging on the eaves of the ancient building, and the light emitted was red.

Gu Yingying looked at it and felt very happy.

Looking up at the inn opposite, there were also lanterns hanging from the eaves.Standing where she was and looking over there, the lanterns she saw looked like big candied haws.

After watching for a while, Gu Yingying's mind came up with a bunch of candied haws, and she couldn't help asking Zhao Xun:
"In this restaurant, do you sell candied haws? I want to eat it."

Those people standing beside Zhao Xun, after hearing the pleasant female voice, looked at Gu Yingying in unison.

This person speaks the imperial dialect.

But this person doesn't know that there are many kinds of delicacies that can be bought in this restaurant.Not only can you buy some cakes from the imperial city, but you can also buy lotus seed soup from Yizhou, and sour jujube cake from Nanxingzhou, etc.

Several "enthusiastic" men scrambled to answer Gu Yingying's answer, saying that in this restaurant, all kinds of delicacies from all over the world can be tasted.

Zhao Xun looked at them with displeasure, and was about to speak, but the man standing in front gave way very actively.This meant that he wanted him to go forward and buy food for Yingying earlier.

He also wanted to buy candied haws quickly, but he raised his hand and made a gesture to let the man know that he didn't need others to help him.

The man standing in front looked embarrassed, so he had no choice but to return to his previous position and stand still.

After seeing this scene, Gu Yingying felt her cheeks burning instantly.

That's right, when the other guest officials didn't speak, why did I ask Zhao Xun, is there any candied haws for sale here?

When I was at home, I knew how to make candied haws, haven’t I eaten them yet?
