Chapter 258 The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment
"Pah~, shopkeeper.
Serve three large bowls of Shaodaozi, two pounds of braised beef, and twenty large white steamed buns. "
It was a small group, but full of heroic spirit, just like the bandits entering the city.
"Three big bowls of Shaodaozi, two pounds of braised beef, and twenty big white steamed buns."
The shopkeeper roared loudly at the top of his throat, and then fell silent.
Where does the braised beef in the store come from?
There is not even a hair of cow to be found in the market, where can one get braised beef?
Isn't this just destroying your own reputation?
The shopkeeper slapped his lips lightly, wondering when he would be able to change this habit of talking nonsense.
Not to mention braised beef, even pork is hard to find.
It can be said that anything related to meat is hard to buy. If you open an inn without meat to sell, wouldn’t that be destroying your own reputation?
The shopkeeper stepped forward with a brave face and apologized to the imposing little man with a smile.
"My dear customer, our store currently does not have braised beef for sale.
Please change the menu and order two catties of mutton soup steamed buns, how about that? "
Lin Shu touched her smooth little chin and turned her head to stare at the shopkeeper.
I thought, isn’t braised beef a standard feature of this inn?
How come it disappeared when it came to her?
There were also two kilograms of mutton soup with steamed buns. It was not like she had not eaten it before.
"Two pounds of braised pork head would be fine, or a roast chicken or goose."
A string of cold sweat dripped down the shopkeeper's forehead. He didn't have any of these things.
Even the big white steamed buns are in limited supply, so don’t mention it in front of this little ancestor.
The shopkeeper's face instantly turned bitter, and he looked pitifully at the person standing on the stool.
"My dear guest, I'll give you as much steamed buns and Shaodaozi as you want. How about that?"
"Not really, I'm not interested anymore."
Lin Shu waved her hands, sat back on the stool in frustration, and said with a look of despair on her face.
"You are a guest, why are you so ordinary?
These four words were really wasted. I thought it was related to the love and hatred in the underworld.
Tell me the story of Qingwei Town and Qingwei Peak.
Well said, let’s stay here for a few more days.
How are your kitchen skills? Can you cook meat dishes? "
Lin Shu's jumping thoughts made the shopkeeper unable to keep up for a while, and he dared not to refute.
The old man and the young boy talked nonsense about all sorts of things, and the shopkeeper realized that they surprisingly got along well.
He smacked his dry lips twice and said with a smile.
"Old Hu has no other hobbies except cooking.
The problem is that we can’t buy meat and vegetables now, so he has no mood to cook, and I can’t persuade him to do anything!”
"Leave the ingredients to me. Good dishes must have a good story. What do you think, shopkeeper?" Lin Shu emphasized again.
"Hey, leave it to me. I will find a few good stories for you." The shopkeeper responded with a smile.
There are always hundreds of pounds of trivial things.
Just pick it up casually, and you don't have to bother to ask around.
Good stories for good food, no one loses.
The shopkeeper was already smiling from ear to ear as the long-lost stomach was finally replenished.
...
When Lin Hongyi came back, six large bowls of clear soup noodles were served.
The so-called clear noodle soup only has a few drops of oil in it.
It has a plain taste, without any meat sauce, fried eggs or vegetables.
There wasn't even any chopped green onions.
This is the clear soup noodle that is famous throughout the ages.
Three big bowls of Shaodaozi, but it’s not as strong as the glutinous rice wine of later generations.
Lin Shu held the Shaodaozi and took a sip.
It reminds me of the story of three big bowls of milk. With the taste of water in my mouth, I can drink three big buckets of milk without any problem.
This also shows that the wine in the two time and space is different.
Wu Chuntao also picked up the bowl and took a big sip, and her little face immediately wrinkled.
After a long while, he finally uttered two words.
"so spicy!"
Lin Hongyi took another big sip, but the taste was a little lighter than before.
Of course, the taste of the shaodaozi will be bland if water is added.
The three people had different expressions, which were noticed by the shopkeeper.
The bland lunch ended quickly, and hot water was prepared for everyone to wash up in their rooms.
Lin Shu threw the dirty clothes she had taken off into the hot water bucket.
Leaving two to guard the gate, he slipped into the space.
A bowl of clear soup noodles and two steamed buns.
She was only three-quarters full, so of course she had to take this opportunity to fill her stomach.
Half an hour later, her face felt slightly smokey.
Wearing the same blue shorts that never change, and a thin cotton coat that is 80% new.
Put out a large bowl of dog food and a large bowl of bear meat.
As soon as Baozi and Heizi smelled the scent, they rushed to her like the wind and stared at the basin intently.
"Eat slowly. There's more after you finish. There's no limit today." Lin Shu touched the two heads and said gently.
The two responded by devouring her like crazy.
The two are both used to eating food from space, so of course they can tell the good from the bad.
Especially the quality of the meat, the meat in the space does not have any smell.
The meat outside not only had a strong smell, but was also dry, hard and thin with only bones.
The two of them each added a fish weighing more than ten pounds, and then they jumped onto the chair and licked their fur in satisfaction.
There was no trace of blood or scales left on the spot, but there was a hint of blood in the air.
...
When I woke up, there was a drizzle outside the window.
It was already dark, and the cold wind was blowing straight into the room through the window that was never closed tightly.
Lin Shu got off the kang wrapped in a quilt and found that she had not taken off her thin cotton coat.
She didn't know when she fell asleep.
The two lay quietly on the chairs, looking at her with wide eyes.
"Rustle, rustle~", and the tail swings high.
The dirty clothes in the wooden barrel have been taken away and the toiletries in the corner have been cleared away.
Lin Shu shook her head. Apart from Wu Chuntao, no one else dared to come in.
Because there were no signs of fighting, especially the fur of the two cats was not messy.
She sat cross-legged next to Baozi and stroked the dog's head that came to her door.
"Hulu~Hulu~"
Baozi was so comfortable that he kept shouting, and Heizi stopped working again.
He jumped onto the chair and dropped half of his body onto the dog.
He squeezed away Baozi's little puppy head and put his own big tiger head on top.
The tiger's eyes blink...
"Hahaha, you two are still so jealous."
Lin Shu hugged the two of them and fell on the chair laughing.
One person and two pets played together, and the laughter drove away the drizzle.
...
Lin Hongyi slowly opened his eyes, and when he heard the laughter from next door, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but widen.
I haven't had such a relaxing rest for a long time. I felt refreshed when I woke up.
Days like this are so happy.
Dinner was still clear soup noodles, which was the best food in the inn.
The original guests had checked out and left, and Lin Shu and two others were the only ones left in the inn.
On the streets where smoke from cooking fires rises, lights can be seen peeking out from shops that are closed during the day.
There was a low voice, accompanied by a rustling sound.
The smell of wild vegetable soup floats over the entire town.
Lin Shu sniffed and closed the window helplessly.
I know that the people in Qingwei Town are not having a good time either, all because of famine and late spring cold.
When I entered the town during the day, I thought there were not many residents.
Unexpectedly, as night fell, those who were busy outside went home one after another.
What are people who go out busy with?
When they entered the town, there were not many people in the fields.
Could it be that he is doing some side job?
Lin Shu shook off the thoughts in her mind. The entire Daqi Kingdom was in dire straits.
Where can I find a side job?
