I give the princess a sip

Chapter 85⑧⑤ Shopping

Qiao Mingyu was dumbfounded as soon as she left the house.

She, yes, a, road, idiot!

Very good, where can I find Ah Lian now?

No matter how smart the charcoal ball is, it is impossible to find Gu Lian out of thin air. It is no problem to let it go to the princess's mansion. Let it go to the street to find someone. There are so many streets, how can it know which one it is.

Fortunately, Sudan also thought of this incident, and hurriedly let a fast-running guard catch up, and told Qiao Mingyu where Gu Lian had gone.

The target location is in the south of the city. Although I don't know the exact location, there are so many interesting markets in the south of the city.Gu Lian definitely wouldn't take Qiao Ancheng to some narrow alleys or places like Caishikou, so he could only go to those few commercial streets.

This charcoal ball recognized him, Qiao Mingyu patted the horse's head, and ran towards the south of the city.

On the other end, Gu Lian took the children to watch the excitement in various shops, and they would buy something symbolically for the eunuch to carry.

People like them are rare in the south of the city.Most of the people in the south of the city are civilians, and those who have money have only a little money. The richer people have all lived in the west of the city. There is a market in the west of the city, where it is very common for young masters and ladies to bring a bunch of servants.

Seeing Gu Lian and the others fighting, the shopkeeper almost couldn't help but laugh from ear to ear.At first glance, it looks like a big customer. It is estimated that they brought their children to the south of the city to watch the excitement, which is generally rare.

Gu Lian didn't like having someone by her side chattering about products, so she waved her hand to tell the shopkeeper and the store waiter to go down, and she and Qiao An presented themselves to see.The shopkeeper tactfully led the people back, not daring to approach him to make trouble.

"What is this?" Qiao Ancheng asked, pointing at the candied haws.

Gu Lian asked someone to buy a bunch for him to taste. This kid has never seen candied haws.Speaking of candied haws, it always reminded her of the activities held in the game on Children's Day, where she would give Uncle Dancha's candied haws.Gu Lian once watched those boring players feed a candied haws when they caught someone, especially like chasing big men to feed them.

"It's not tasty." Qiao Ancheng doesn't like sour food, and even more hates sour and sweet food. After two bites, he doesn't want to eat anymore.

Gu Lian originally wanted to teach him not to waste money, but then he remembered that he was usually quite picky about waste, as if he had no right to criticize others, so he swallowed his words back.Ask Qiao Ancheng to give the palace maids and eunuchs the uneaten candied haws, and then they will go on to buy others.

Many snacks in the civilian area are still very interesting, such as various foods sold on the roadside, some are said to have been passed down from other provinces, and there are some local specialties in Huaijing.Qiao Ancheng had never eaten wontons before, and she couldn't walk when she smelled the fresh aroma.

Huaijing, which is next to the river, is rich in aquatic products on weekdays, and even seafood is actually quite a lot, after all, it is not too far from the seaside.However, most people can't afford seafood, so dignitaries can eat it occasionally.There are seafood dishes in the palace every day, Qiao Ancheng can eat it every day, he doesn't care about that, but the wonton stuffing with river prawn broth aroused his greed.

"It's time to eat." Gu Lian grabbed Qiao Ancheng's back collar.

"I want to eat." Joan said pitifully.

Gu Lian paused and let go.She is not immune to the appearance of a child, thinking that at worst, she will just eat these snacks at noon, and then take him back to the house for dinner at night.

So one of them ordered a bowl of small wontons, and even the maids and eunuchs had enough to eat.

Qiao Ancheng scooped up a wonton with a porcelain spoon, and brought the soup, which was so steaming hot that he couldn't eat it.Seeing that Gu Lian slowly sucked up the soup in the spoon before he started eating wontons, he followed suit.Don't eat wonton too fast, otherwise it will burn your mouth easily.

Gu Lian glanced back, saw that the next door was selling steamed buns, and asked someone to buy a steamed bun.

Xiaolongbao is hotter than this. Usually, it is carefully picked up, and then the small mouth is bitten, and the soup is slowly sucked out before eating, otherwise the soup will definitely burn the tongue.But this food is so delicious that many people ate it with big mouthfuls, ignoring the burning of their mouths, screaming from the heat.

Gu Lian saw that Qiao Ancheng was reaching for the steamed bun with a spoon, and immediately moved the steamer to her hand: "It's too hot, eat it when it cools down."

Although it will lose its taste when it is cold, it is better than a child's greedy mouth being scalded.

"Oh..." Qiao An retracted his paws pitifully, and continued to eat wontons.

Qiao Mingyu walked casually on the street on horseback, aimlessly looking for her family, Ah Lian.However, after searching for a while, I couldn't find anything, and I went shopping in several streets.Ah Lian probably entered the shop, but it might not be easy to find.

She lay on the horse and sighed, her previous courage had almost faded away.She doesn't know how to face Ah Lian at all, Ah Lian is so smart, what if she finds out her little thoughts?Will you find her strange and alienate her?

Qiao Mingyu thought about it, no, she had to test Ah Lian's tone to see if she thought it was weird for a woman to be with a woman.

As for the other things... She stayed with Ah Lian for so long before, Ah Lian didn't notice her feelings, probably she wouldn't find out, right?

Just as he was thinking about it, the charcoal ball suddenly neighed happily, and ran to a wonton stand with small steps.

Qiao Mingyu was taken aback, sat up straight, and then met Gu Lian's eyes.

"Ah Lian?!" It's really hard to find a place, and it's so easy to find someone!

Qiao Mingyu happily got off the horse, threw the reins to a big eunuch, and leaned over to sit on the other side of Gu Lian.

"Why are you here?" Gu Lian pursed her lips and smiled, and asked the stall owner to order an empty bowl, and gave her some wontons to taste.

Qiao Mingyu didn't dislike that it was Gu Lian who ate the leftovers, so she picked up the chopsticks and ate one, her eyes lit up immediately.The wontons are delicious and delicious, much better than the ones at her house.

Gu Lian chuckled, these small stalls only serve one kind of food, fearing that the signboard will be smashed, naturally they will bother to study the taste.What's more, there are too many delicious foods in the Princess Mansion, and all the delicacies are served together on weekdays. The food is the most afraid of comparison. There are better ones, and others are not so delicious.

After running for a long time now, Qiao Mingyu was also hungry, so I happened to have a bowl of wontons, which naturally felt extremely delicious.

"Eat slowly, there are other things."

Gu Lian picked up a delicate and exquisite steamed bun, tasted it, it was no longer hot, and it was no problem to eat it with the juice.So he pushed the steamer to the middle of the table and let the other two greedy cats hold it by themselves.

There are eight xiao long bao in a basket, Gu Lian ate one and stopped moving, leaving the rest for aunt and nephew to snatch.

"That's all." Qiao Mingyu complained, wanting to buy a few more cages.

Gu Lian took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands in a leisurely manner: "There are other things, don't complain that you can't eat after eating for a while."

Qiao Mingyu shut up immediately, and began to look forward to other delicacies.

Duck blood vermicelli soup, fried crab, mung bean cake, roast duck... After tasting one after another, the three of them were basically full, and this was when most of the snacks were distributed to the maids and eunuchs.Qiao Ancheng supported his stomach, feeling completely unable to walk.

Qiao Mingyu carried him onto the horse, let him ride alone, and led the horse and Gu Lian, walking slowly on the street.

After noon, the sky started to overcast, but there was no sign of rain.Under the breeze blowing, it brings a little coolness, which is also rare.

In Huaijing, generally speaking, even if it rained yesterday, it may be very hot today, unless it rains for several consecutive days or there is a heavy rain.There was still the sun this morning, but it was covered by clouds in the afternoon, and the wind was not so hot. Qiao Ancheng excitedly stretched out his little fleshy claws to scratch around in the void.

"Teacher, where are we going next?"

Gu Lian looked ahead: "There was a tea house at that time, go in and listen to the stories. Didn't you say you want to hear books?"

Qiao Ancheng was immediately happy, nodded again and again, and stared expectantly at the teahouse that was getting closer and closer.

Asked for two private rooms on the second floor, Gu Lian sat in one of them with his aunt and nephew and a few big girls, and the rest rested next door.Gu Lian asked the maids to wait on Qiao Ancheng who was sitting by the inner window, and she dragged Qiao Mingyu to chat at the small table by the outer window facing the street.

The windows are wide open, and the breeze blows in, which is very cool, and there is no sweltering heat in the afternoon.

"You asked me to check the grinding mirror last time, and I found it." Qiao Mingyu hesitated for a moment, and pointed it out directly.

Gu Lian's hand that was pouring the tea paused slightly, then as if there was no pause at all, she poured the tea, returned it to Qiao Mingyu, poured another cup herself, picked it up and took a sip.

"What do you mean?" she asked with a smile.

Qiao Mingyu, who was sitting opposite her, was a little nervous, with sweaty palms.

"The meaning of grinding the mirror is similar to the south wind I told you last time..." Qiao Mingyu felt her mouth dry, took a sip of tea, and suddenly felt the urgency to urinate again, but she still wanted to say something Finished, "It's... the love between two women..."

To her surprise, Gu Lian was very calm.She nodded: "Well, I guessed it."

"..."

WTF!Did you guess it? !

Qiao Mingyu suddenly felt like a fool for concealing things for so long, but thinking about it, Nan Feng and Mo Jing asked together. She explained what Nan Feng meant last time, and anyone who is a little smarter can guess the two. Words should be related to each other.So by analogy, you can guess it.

Well, she was stupid.

But Ah Lian wants to be so calm, how does this make her think about her attitude!

Qiao Mingyu was very depressed, paused, and then asked unwillingly: "Ah Lian, where did you see these two words?"

"In the book." Gu Lian said casually.

"Then..." The content of this book should be very bold. Qiao Mingyu thought it was funny, so she asked directly, "Don't you think that things like grinding mirrors are... shocking? ?”

The author has something to say: Welcome to "Five Poisons on the Bite of the Tongue". Today we are going to introduce local snacks - wontons and steamed buns.
