Poor family mother and son

Chapter 496
The sales at the street stalls were really good today. Apart from Ying Jinger's lotus and lotus root-shaped accessories, many things that were slow to sell in the shops were also sold out.

People’s mentality is very strange. The same things are put in the shop, polished and neatly arranged, and no one cares about "fifteen cents a piece", but they are piled up in a messy pile, shouting "fifty cents a piece". Three", but it has attracted everyone's flock.

Even Little Treasure bought a lot, and planned to bring them back to win prizes in various small competitions in the academy.

All the children helped carry things with empty hands, and they were happier than buying them delicious food.

Xiaobao buys daily necessities, even tableware, kitchen utensils, and soap.

There is no way, there are too many shops in my family, no matter who the brothers follow to protect him, no matter where he goes, they must invest in opening one or two shops for him as "payment"-in case there is no money to go home to find his mother , These shops are travel expenses.

Since my brothers are so powerful, it is also appropriate to take care of my business from time to time.

The students all like these things as prizes, because this kind of not-so-expensive things can be obtained in daily small competitions, and they will save face, and their parents will be happy when they bring them home.

They are still quite afraid of those big competitions. The bonus of 50 taels of silver ingots is not easy to get. It must be achieved after hard work, reaching the level of the husband, or having a major invention to have a chance to get it.

Walking all the way, it was noon, Shui Xiaomao whispered into Xiaobao's ear and said that Shui Maomao had reserved a seat at a restaurant called "Shi Shi Shi" in the west of the city.

Xiaobao was surprised that Shui Xiaomao had been following him all the time, how did he know the news, Shui Xiaomao covered his mouth pretending to be mysterious, and didn't tell him.

When I entered "Shi Shi Shi", I found that this place is different-it used several screens to divide the first floor into nine "lattice houses".

The middle one has a stage, on which storytellers or singers perform on weekdays, and the surrounding eight lattice rooms only need to fold up the screens to watch.

Standing by the fence on the second floor, you can also see the performance below.

This design not only isolates part of the hustle and bustle, but also has a relatively private space - as long as you don't stand up, you can't see other tables.

But Xiaobao followed Shui Xiaomao straight up to the private room on the second floor, where Shui Maomao was already waiting with the seven Maomaos.

"This restaurant is interesting," Xiaobao said as soon as he entered the door, "but what does the name 'Shi Shi Shi' mean?"

"This 'timely food' means fresh, affordable, and edible. The last time my mother came here to eat was when your uncle brought me here last year." Li explained to Meng Yueyue while passing by Xiaobao's private room. .

The door of Xiaobao's private room was ajar. When he heard the answer, he felt that the voice was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he heard it.

The dishes of "Timely Food" are really extraordinary. Just a stewed pine mushroom with bacon makes Xiaobao want to eat it, and the stir-fried chicken fir mushroom makes his little mouth oily.

Originally, he was already full and hungry after eating the roadside stalls along the way, but these mushrooms whetted his appetite.

It's really seasonal vegetables. This season is a good season for all kinds of fungus; the quantity is also large, and it is served in a large soup pot or a large plate, not a flat plate, which is really affordable; it is impossible to eat it.

It's just that the price is also impressive. After all, they are fresh seasonal vegetables, especially these wild mushrooms, which are even more rare.

"Master, the eldest lady took the girl to 'Shi Shishi', and the girl seemed much happier; coincidentally, the kid surnamed Chu also went there for dinner." Lei Xiaopao reported to Meng Yonghui.

"God help me! Just watch and create some opportunities for them at any time!" Meng Yong was holding a chopstick of green vegetables, and was about to send them to Yanluo girl's mouth. When he was happy, he slapped his chopsticks on the table.

Poor girl Yanluo opened her mouth slightly, her pose was beautiful, it was a waste of expression.

Lei Xiaopao regretted a bit in his heart, and went out.

*********
Xiaobao ate deliciously, and planned to continue shopping. There were still many students outside waiting for him to "teach".

Leave all the maomaos to Shui Maomao, for the holidays, at least let the family reunite, avoid the bright sun at noon, and make an appointment to put the river lanterns together at night.

When Xiaobao was about to go downstairs, it happened that Meng Yueyue had finished eating with Mrs. Li and came out.

Halfway down the stairs, Meng Yueyue also walked to the first step of the stairs, and couldn't help but glance at the person in front—"Ah!"

With a soft cry, Meng Yueyue stepped on the ground and fell down.

That big lotus bone!That ruby ​​dragonfly!It's too eye-catching!I didn't see my feet clearly!

The stairs are facing the store door, and Lei Xiaopao was holding the door frame and looking around, when he saw this scene, he slapped his thigh: "You are really blessed, don't worry, look, the big girl fell down the stairs by herself, and the boy was right in front of her." Isn't it just right at the five or six steps!

Little Treasure heard a "gudong" sound from the wooden stairs behind him, and jumped out towards the door without even thinking about it!
No matter what it is, there is movement behind it, let's run first to respect it!Safety!

Poor Meng Yueyue is a little girl who hasn't exercised her body and is not quick enough, so she fell down before she could grab the guardrail.

On the other hand, Mrs. Li kept her eyes on her daughter, so she stretched out her hand to pull her daughter as soon as she stepped into the air. She grabbed two nails and managed to control her daughter from rolling down.

Unsurprisingly.

Meng Yueyue's face turned pale with fright: "Mother, are you okay? I'm all to blame, I didn't see the steps clearly."

Mrs. Li covered her hand with broken nails with a handkerchief, fearing that her daughter's good mood would be lost again, so she walked slowly downstairs with her on his arm.

Lei Xiaopao stared at the red dragonfly dangling on Xiaobao's head, and cursed in his heart for a long time.

Diagonally across the street, Gan Lai, who led the children to eat at the Longxu noodle stall, stared at Lei Xiaopao's figure thoughtfully.

"What's wrong?" Chu Yuan asked.

Gan Lai: "That man has been wandering around the entrance of the restaurant for a long time, and just now he stared at Xiaobao's back."

Chu Yuan also looked over, and Lei Xiaopao had returned to normal, looking around as if looking at the street scene.

Xiaobao walked across the street, but found that neither Gan Lai nor Chu Yuan looked at him, he was quite puzzled: "I'm such a big man, can't you see it?"

As he spoke, he shook his head, making the red dragonfly on his head sway even more.

Chu Yuan stared at Lei Xiaopao's figure until he saw a guard following him before turning his eyes back: "You are being watched."

Xiaobao said, "That girl? It's weird too. I met her twice in one morning."

"What girl?" Chu Yuan and Gan Lai asked together, and they saw Mrs. Li helping her daughter into the carriage.

Some of the college kids who were slurping the noodle soup next to him said, "Young Master Shanzhang, I'm afraid it's your destiny. Isn't this the girl who stumbled?"

But someone immediately objected: "Master Shan! You have to protect yourself!"

Uh... oh!
