Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 447 She Called My Brother

There is actually nothing to do on the street of Jade Warehouse. Wen Shu used this excuse to come out, but he didn't want to sit in the jade ware shop, and he didn't want to give shopkeeper Shan a chance to inquire about other things.

"It's too hot, why don't we go in and have some iced drinks?" When passing by a drink shop, Wen Shu stopped.

Father Wen was thirsty for a long time, and he nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, even Cao Fei and Wang Qi were the same.

When the four of them entered the store, Wen Shu ordered two servings of iced mung bean water. When they arrived at Cao Fei and Wang Qi, Wen Shu laughed and teased, "The two big brothers shouldn't bother me, so order it yourself."

The two knew that she was remembering what Liu Tou said earlier, and she was going to kill them.

However, it doesn't matter, they are subsidized by the imperial court when they travel abroad. Although it is not much, it is still possible to eat enough.

The two glanced at the list in the store, and finally made the same choice as Wen Shu, ice mung bean water.

Nothing less than other, but it is cheap!
In this way, the extra money in the subsidy can be kept to supplement the family or marry a wife.

Father Wen and Wen Shu sat down by the door, while Cao Fei and Wang Qi sat next to them.

After a while, the waiter in the shop brought up the prepared drink, Wen Shu buried his head in thirst, completely disregarding his image, and so did Father Wen.

But while drinking, there was a sudden noise from behind, as if the waiter was yelling at someone.

"We don't invite idle customers in our shop, leave quickly."

"I don't sell anything, I just take a look." An old woman's voice sounded out.

"Look, what's there to see! Leave quickly, don't provoke me."

Wen Shu swallowed the mung bean soup in his mouth, looked back curiously, and saw that Xiao Er was reaching out to block an old woman holding a food basket, and the old woman was stretching her neck to look inside.

Granny Bear!
"Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go." The old woman lowered her head in frustration and said.

At this moment, Wen Shu got up and shouted: "Mother-in-law." She walked up to the old woman and said to Xiaoer: "This mother-in-law is here to look for me, brother-in-law, don't make things difficult." The mother-in-law led to the seat.

"Little lady, why are you here?" Mrs. Xiong's absent-minded eyes lit up when she saw Wen Shu.

"Go shopping with daddy, how is mother-in-law?"

Speaking of which, it has been more than two months since the last time I saw the two elders.

Mrs. Xiong smiled and said, "Okay, okay."

Although she said that, Wen Shu saw that her expression was not good at all.

Wen Shu watched her bring the basket, which was neatly stacked with a basket of cold cakes, "Is this made by my mother-in-law?"

"Yes, it's just out of the pot at noon, little lady, try it." Granny Xiong used bamboo chopsticks to sandwich Wen Shu's cold cake, while looking at Old Man Wen and said, "This is..."

"My father, father, this is Grandma Xiong, that is Shun." Halfway through speaking, Wen Shu suddenly stopped and looked carefully at Grandma Xiong.

Hearing the word "Shun", Grandma Xiong's expression was indeed stagnant. Seeing this, Wen Shu quickly changed the subject, "This cold cake tastes good, and it has a southern flavor. Where did Grandma learn it from?"

Granny Xiong came back to her senses and said with a smile: "When I was young, I had a sister, and she was from the south."

"That's kind, my two elder brothers love to eat cold cakes, especially those from Nankou, mother-in-law, please sell me some." Wen Shu then took out a hundred Wen from the purse.

"What's wrong with it, if you want to eat it, you can just take it, some cold cakes are not worth anything."

Although the ingredients of this cold cake are simple, the process is complicated and time-consuming. Therefore, even though Wen Shu learned the recipe of this cold cake in private school, he seldom makes it.

"Then why am I embarrassed, and I don't eat a little, but a basket." Wen Shu pushed the money to Grandma Xiong with one hand, and pulled the basket in front of herself with the other.

Mrs. Xiong refused again and again, saying: "At this time of year, cold cakes can't last overnight. How can I finish a basket? Don't waste food for nothing just because of my old lady's face."

"No, my two elder brothers have a lot of food. They haven't eaten this cold cake for a long time. I'm afraid they want to eat it now. Let alone a basket, they can eat another basket, right, brother .” Wen Shu looked at Cao Fei and Wang Qi!

elder brother?call them?

The two looked at each other.

When Mrs. Xiong looked over, Wen Shu blinked at the two of them.

Forget it, for the sake of her being called brother
"Yes, we love to eat."

Grandma Xiong said with a smile: "Then give it to the little lady and your brothers, and the money will not be paid."

Seeing that Grandma Xiong wanted to push the money back again, Wen Shu said angrily: "If Grandma doesn't accept the money, I won't eat this cold cake. I really cherish Grandma's craftsmanship, so I want to buy it and share it with my family. If you insist on not accepting money, then I will buy it elsewhere."

As he said that, he made a gesture to put the cold cake in the bowl back.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll take it, I'll take it." Grandma Xiong moved the money back, her tone a little helpless, "You child, I've never seen money pushed out like this."

Wen Shu laughed and said, "I've never seen you push money out like this."

After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other and both laughed.

After a while, Wen Shu asked: "Weng Weng, why didn't you come with me?"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Xiong showed a look of worry on her face again, "He fell a few days ago, and now he is lying at home."

"Ah, is it serious? Have you seen a doctor?"

"I invited a doctor and said that the joint was sprained and I need to rest for a while."

rest?The Xiong family used to make a living from tanning leather, but now that Weng Weng has sprained his leg, this livelihood may be lost, so Grandma Xiong came out to sell food.

Unfortunately, she came to the wrong place.

This drink shop is a regular restaurant, not only selling all kinds of drinks, but also all kinds of pastries and tea matching, so I don't want outsiders like my mother-in-law to grab the business.

Wen Shu analyzed her thoughts to Mrs. Xiong, and told her that it might be better to go to the small restaurants by the river.

"How could these old women not know what the little lady said, but the ones who kidnapped Shunzi were wealthy people, so I thought, why don't we come to these restaurants and teahouses more, just in case we can see Shunzi."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Xiong blinked red.

It has been almost three months since Shunzi was taken away, and she and the old man really lived the past three months.Previously, I had been waiting for news from the government day by day, so I still had something to look forward to.

Later, Wen Shu told them cryptically that Shunzi was picked up by his biological parents, and the other party was from a wealthy family, so the possibility of returning Shunzi was extremely slim.

Even this hope is gone.

Although he knew that it was better for Shunzi to be taken back by his biological parents than to live a hard life with them, but in the end he still couldn't let go of the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren for so many years.

After the old man fell down, he couldn't do his work, so she thought about making some food and selling it, firstly to earn some food money, and secondly, to walk around the street more, maybe God would show mercy and meet Shunzi.

She didn't dare to take Shunzi back, she just wanted to take a look at him from afar to make sure he was doing well.
