First smoked mind

Chapter 26 Fried Shrimp Cakes

Jing Yi was not too surprised when he heard this, only the smile marks on his lips deepened.Qiao Chuxun carefully finished his speculation, kept looking at this man's expression, and suddenly exhaled softly: "You have thought of it a long time ago!"

Jing Yi's phoenix eyes are slightly curved, and his already handsome face is even more like the breeze and the moon, which makes people's hearts slam: "Chu Xun is also very smart."

He heard what the old doctor in the medical center said yesterday, and he felt a little bit hesitant in his heart. He asked Qiao Chuxun what he said on the road this morning, just to be more sure of his inference.Talking to that person in the medical hall is to get some useful information.I don't want this girl to suddenly become enlightened and improvise such a lie. Although she said it awkwardly and dare not look people in the eye, it seems more real and has more effect than what he said.

Qiao Chuxun was so uncomfortable by his blunt praise, she turned her eyes to the other side, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly uncontrollably: "How could..."

Just now that he was busy with his business, Jing Yi became more interested in teasing her, leaned over and said softly: "Chu Xun is very smart, he can cook delicious dishes, order tea, and check people's pulse. Now..." Jing Yi smiled softly, "I know how to deduce and solve the case!"

Qiao Chuxun only felt a numbness at the base of his ears, warm breath brushed across his cheeks, his trembling hair moved slightly, his heart trembled slightly with that chuckle, and at the same time his face felt hot, he couldn't help but raised his hand and pushed him away. Come on, this man likes to tease her!
Jing Yi covered her hand on his shoulder, with a smile on his face: "Chu Xun, I'm hungry."

Qiao Chuxun really regretted pushing him in a hurry. Not only was his hand firmly held, but he also brought him into his arms, and that sentence...how awkward it sounded, he couldn't help but tilted him angrily. One glance, but I still can't learn to speak harshly: "I just finished eating the morning food."

Jing Yi Snake hit the stick, and the other hand was tied behind the waist to prevent her from struggling: "No matter, the zongzi you made is not very hungry at all. Anyway, it is still early, let's go to the south of the city to eat snacks. I heard that there is a snack over there." The whole street is filled with all kinds of snacks."

Qiao Chuxun was held in his arms by his whole body, and he couldn't move, so he could only clenched his fists and hit him, but he didn't dare to yell, "Let go of me, other people are watching!" High, on a sunny day, the streets are bustling with people coming and going.The two of them stood on the side of the road and didn't move for a long time, just chattering like this, and she was dressed as a girl who hadn't left the court, so she really didn't want to be human!

Jing Yi was beaten by her without pain or itching, and smiled very gracefully: "You promise me first."

Anyway, he just didn't want to go back so early. As soon as Qiao Chuxun returned to the mansion, he ran to the back kitchen, busy cooking for those foodies, and he didn't see anyone until dinner time.If he went to look for it, he would be ridiculed by those little heartless people every time, and there was a little Taoer standing stupidly beside him, who didn't know where to make room.

Qiao Chuxun didn't care about thinking about why he was going crazy at the moment, and replied repeatedly: "I promise, I promise, my lord, stop making trouble soon."

Only then did Jing Yi let go of his embrace, but he still held his hand, and expressed his understanding to Qiao Chuxun with reason and affection: "Let's go and taste those snacks, if they are really good, you can also learn how to do them." Give it to me, and then everyone will have a real treat!"

Qiao Chuxun thought about it, and it was the same reason.Thinking about the medicine hall again, he lowered his head to look at the medicine bag Jing Yi was carrying in his other hand: "My lord, can you let me see the medicine first?"

Jing Yi had been holding his little hand for the whole morning, feeling extremely comfortable, and said calmly, "No hurry. I'll watch it later when I'm eating."

Qiao Chuxun had no choice but to follow him to the south of the city.

It was already half an hour after the two of them walked all the way to the south of the city.Jing Yi glanced at the noisy street not far away, and squeezed her little hand: "Does your foot hurt?" He did have selfish intentions, always thinking about getting more opportunities to get close to the beautiful woman, so he didn't call for a carriage directly as usual.It just so happened that the sun was shining today, and there was no wind, so I simply led the people all the way here.

As a result, my heart was beautiful for a long time, and it was only when I got to the place that I remembered that she used to be a lady from a wealthy family, and she probably rarely had the opportunity to walk such a long distance. I guess my feet would be sore after walking for a long time?

Qiao Chuxun curled her lips and shook her head: "It's okay." She didn't have many opportunities to go out of the house before, but after arriving in Yuezhou, she had to go to the street at least once a day.Jing Yi didn't walk too fast, walking so slowly, and the weather was fine and clear, it felt pretty good.

Jing Yi carefully looked at her expression and saw that she didn't look like she was telling a lie, so he felt relieved and said with a smile: "The Chinese New Year will be in a few days. When the spring is warm next year, let's go to Suzhou and Hangzhou to have fun. Then There are more delicious things here, and the scenery is more beautiful than here.”

When Qiao Chuxun heard this, his eyes widened immediately: "Really?"

Jing Yi looked at her amusedly, and promised slowly: "Of course it's true. Do you want to go?"

Qiao Chuxun nodded, and Shui Xing's eyes sparkled: "In late spring and March, the grass grows in the south of the Yangtze River, the peanut trees are mixed, and the warblers are flying around. The scenery depicted in the book is so beautiful, I have always wanted to see it with my own eyes."

Jing Yi stared at her for a long time, and finally said in a low voice: "As long as you don't leave, I will take you to see whatever you want."

The streets are bustling with people, the sky is high and the clouds are light, the sun is light, Jing Yi speaks slowly but firmly, each word is knocked into her heart, each stroke is clearly engraved, as if it weighs a thousand catties, it gradually settles into her heart the deepest place.

Qiao Chuxun opened his lips, but didn't say a word for a while.It wasn't until Jing Yi showed a slight smile and pulled her forward again that she suddenly felt a slight pain in her chest. His sudden promise just now made her forget to continue breathing.

Jing Yi seems to be very experienced in visiting such places.As soon as they walked into that street, they first bought a bowl of hot strong tea for the two of them.Then he led her to a pastry stall, glanced at the various snacks on the stall, and turned her head to look at her: "Which one do you want? Sweet or salty?"

When Qiao Chuxun was in Bianjing, he rarely had such an experience. For a while, he was dazzled by the colorful cakes in front of the stall, so he looked at Jing Yi helplessly: "I... eat the same cakes as my son. Just fine."

Jing Yi shook her palm, and said to the peddler, "Rose flavored ones, red bean paste, mung bean paste, water honey cake, fragrant honey cake, yam, water chestnut powder, and poria cocos cake are 20 yuan each. Take out one piece of each. Take the rest of the bag together."

The peddler responded, and quickly started wrapping pastries. Jing Yi twisted a piece from the ones he had picked up, and brought it to Qiao Chuxun's lips: "Open your mouth."

Qiao Chuxun stepped back slightly, and looked at him shyly: "Young master."

Jing Yi didn't take it seriously, and continued to pass the cake in his hand forward: "It's not convenient for you to hold things in your hand, open your mouth." Otherwise, why would he let her hold the tea bowl and medicine just now.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the peddler who was busy wrapping things with his head down. Qiao Chuxun opened his lips, took a small bite quickly, chewed a few times and swallowed, not daring to look at Jing Yi's expression again: "Thank you, young master."

Jing Yi watched as her pink lips parted slightly, she bit her snow-white teeth lightly, then quickly closed her mouth, chewing slowly, as if feeding a bunny.Itching in his heart, he raised one corner of his lips, and put the remaining half of the red bean cake into his mouth.

Qiao Chuxun raised his head, and found that the pastry in Jing Yi's hand was gone, and saw him chewing something again, his cheeks became redder and redder as he guessed in his heart, he hurriedly lowered his head to drink his tea, and didn't dare to take another look.

Soon the peddler wrapped up the cakes. One big bag was tied with a rope so that people could carry it in their hands, and the other small bag was left open so that they could eat it at any time.Jing Yi looked very satisfied, gave a few more copper coins, drank the tea in his hand in a few mouthfuls, put down the tea bowl, and led the people to continue walking.

There are all kinds of fried and fried food on both sides of the street, and there are endless shouts with their own characteristics.Qiao Chuxun held the tea bowl in one hand, and Jing Yi took the medicine in the other hand, allowing him to hold hands, looking here and there, with surprise and joy on his face, as if everything he saw was new.Originally, she hadn't gone out to go shopping much before. When she arrived in Yuezhou, she basically went to the market every day, and occasionally went to the grocery store in the east of the city to buy some utensils for the house, but she rarely came here.

Jing Yi watched from the side, and saw that she was almost only looking at it, and forgot to drink the tea in her hand, and didn't know how to buy or taste it.Recalling Gao Ling's story about her family earlier, the softest part of her heart ached slightly, and her voice added a little tenderness: "Which one do you want to try?"

Qiao Chuxun was looking at an old man on the side of the street. There was a big iron pot in front of the man, a pair of wooden chopsticks more than a foot long, and a thick stack of light yellow cut paper on the table beside him. , obviously selling fried food.Hearing Jing Yi ask her, Qiao Chuxun hurriedly turned around, hesitated for a moment, and said, "That's fried food..."

Jing Yi smiled slightly, and led her forward: "I also like fried food. You usually don't make it for me, saying that it's better to eat less for my health."

Qiao Chuxun opened his eyes wide, and said sternly, "It's not good to eat too much." Seeing Jing Yi's half-smile expression, Qiao Chuxun pursed the corners of her lips, feeling a little embarrassed, "Well, occasionally eat Once is fine." She also kind of wanted to try that.There are a lot of people queuing up to buy, and it smells so good!

The two of them lined up at the end of the line, and Jing Yi glanced at the tea bowl in her hand: "It's a little cold. I'll buy it for you later if I want to drink it." After speaking, he couldn't help but take the bowl over and gave it to the teacup sitting on the road. A little beggar sitting beside him.

Just as Qiao Chuxun was about to call him to stop, seeing that he didn't just throw away the thing, but gave it to someone else, he swallowed the words again, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

The team moved forward slowly, and Qiao Chuxun finally saw what was in the pot when he got to the front: "It's shrimp cakes!"

Jing Yi had seen it a long time ago, looked at her profile and asked, "Don't you like it?"

Qiao Chuxun shook his head hurriedly, then turned to look at him: "I've heard people say that there are fried shrimp cakes sold in the south of the Yangtze River. They are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and have a unique taste. We don't have them there."

When Qiao Chuxun said "we", she meant that both of them were from Bianjing, and Jing Yi heard it, but felt that she was not alien to him as much as before.The usually indifferent eyebrows and eyes are slightly pale, like a cool breeze blowing through a cold spring, with little ripples and splashes of light and clear water droplets: "Try it later, if you like it, I will buy it for you every day in the future."

Qiao Chuxun looked at him with a playful smile: "I just said that if I tasted the delicious food, I'll go back and figure it out for you."

Jing Yi's eyes became warmer, and he bent his lips and said, "Okay. Let me taste the first one after you make it."

The two came to the front while talking and laughing. The shrimp cakes were not too big. Jing Yi ordered five, paid the copper coin, and led the people to continue walking.

It was almost noon, Jing Yi looked around, picked a restaurant that looked more elegant, and brought Qiao Chuxun into it.Sitting in the private seat on the second floor, I took out the shrimp cakes wrapped in paper, which were still quite hot.Qiao Chuxun blew on it lightly, took a bite, and just after taking two bites, his eyes lit up, and he said happily, "Master, it's really delicious."

When Jing Yi heard that thought-provoking emotion, he almost didn't laugh outright.Picking up the teacup and taking a sip of strong tea, suppressing the burst of laughter, looking at the man's rosy and tender cheeks: "Huh?"

Qiao Chuxun hurriedly took one out of the paper bag at hand, wrapped it in paper, and sent it to Jing Yi: "This one is best eaten while it's hot." The fried golden crisp on the outside almost melted in your mouth, but the inside was tender and dripping. It is tender and chewy, with a hint of chopped green onion and wine aroma. It is obvious that the sauce used for seasoning also took a lot of effort.

Jing Yi took it, and although he didn't eat fast, he still finished a shrimp cake in two or three bites.Qiao Chuxun finished eating by himself, quickly picked up the paper and passed another one to Jing Yi.The waiter who came over and waited to order was staring at her teeth. These two, after buying these old food, it would be more appropriate to go directly to the teahouse!

Jing Yi took a bite of the shrimp cake and glanced at it lightly.Xiao Er was shocked, immediately straightened his back, smiled and continued to wait by the side.

While Jing Yi and Xiao Er were ordering food, Qiao Chuxun took out the handkerchief and wiped his hands, took the medicine bag and opened it, and separated the medicinal materials inside one by one with his fingertips, but the frown became tighter and tighter.

Jing Yi ordered a few special meals in the store, and ordered a pot of wine. Turning his head, he saw Qiao Chuxun biting his lip with a gloomy expression on his face, as if he was still a little angry, and hurriedly asked: What's wrong? "
