There are many restaurants and restaurants in the West Street. Ordinary people don't come to their small shop to eat.
However, some craftsmen and travelling merchants think that their bamboo tube rice is very good, with mellow taste and fresh and tender gravy.
If you eat it in a shop, you'll get a bowl of bone soup.
Fragrant bone soup, accompanied by a few full peanuts, and some meat foam, this flavor is fragrant, not greasy, many people like it.
When it's time to have a meal, Lian Tiesheng and several officials come to help with the business.
"Brother Lian, you're here. Come and sit in the room." Zhang Man'er warmly greets them and welcomes them into the room.
Lian Tiesheng takes some captors to take care of her business from time to time, which shows his good intentions.
"Let's have eight bamboo tube rice with meat and vegetables." Lian Tiesheng said, four people find two tables to sit separately. There are big tables for four people in this shop, but there will be guests, so we can't rush.
Zhang Man'er put forward that he could put the two tables together. Lian Tiesheng waved his hand and said, "no, that's it. Brother and sister, let's have rice in bamboo tube."
It's troublesome to move the table around. It doesn't matter if you sit separately.
"Good." Zhang Man'er made a bowl of bone soup for everyone.
Xue Yu put the steamed bamboo tube rice on the tray and said, "take your time. If the soup is not enough, I'll give you some later."
"All right."
Xue Chuan took a stool and sat next to the two officials. Zhang Man'er knew that he was quietly asking about Lian Tiesheng in the Yamen.
Thinking that Xue Chuan had been busy all morning and had no dinner, he brought him two bamboo tube rice with a bowl of big bone soup.
At the dinner table, a few people eat soup, but also eat meat on the bones, very satisfied.
Maybe it's the way these men eat that attracts passers-by, or the fragrance of bamboo tube rice floats out to attract guests.
Seeing that several small tables in the shop were full of people, more guests took away with bamboo tube rice.
This is a good start, let Zhang Man'er more confident, occasionally to Xuechuan deep eyes, two people are tacit understanding of silent communication.
Xue Chuan is similar to what the two new captors suggest. He looks at the old brothers after dinner and wants to talk to them more. But as soon as he sees a familiar carriage coming this way, he immediately winks at Lian Tiesheng and others.
Brothers who have been working together for many years are different. They can understand each other's eyes.
Soon, all the officials in the shop left. Xue Chuan opened the door of the shop and entered the backyard.
"Oh, there's a new shop here? What's steamed in this bamboo tube? It smells delicious. " Accompanied by a carriage wheezing stop, stepping on the stool from the carriage is a young man.
He is of medium build and has a wheat complexion. He wears a good silk robe and shakes a folding fan in his hand. He looks very natural and unrestrained.
All the visitors are guests, no matter what class they are, Zhang Man'er naturally welcomes them.
Just now, she felt that bamboo rice could not enter the eyes of these rich people. A rich young man came to her to increase her confidence?
As long as the food is delicious, it can attract people.
This bamboo tube rice is also a special food, not only in this street, but also in the whole Qingshui town.
"Sir, are we really going to eat here?" The attendant frowned and looked at this not luxurious shop.
Although the decoration is very distinctive, it is also clean and tidy, and has a pleasant smell of bamboo.
But his family has a noble status. How can he enter such a small shop and surrender his status?
"What do you know? It's called folk characteristics." The young man shook his head and talked. He looked around the shop and saw that there was no vacancy.
There are three tables full of people, and there are two tables which are obviously just left and have not come yet.
He naturally lifted his robe and chose to sit at Xue Xue's table.
At this time Xue Xue is eating, lift eyes on a pair of strange eyes, four eyes relative, the eyes of the comer flashed a touch of surprise.
Ning Sheng narrowed her small eyes and looked at Xue Xue several times. The girl's complexion was white, her eyes were black and white, her eyes were bright and her teeth were white, and she showed a natural innocence. The slight disdain from the corner of her eyes and the little pride that was difficult to tame made him interested.
Xue Xue is often looked at by the strange eyes, and she has goose bumps in her heart, and she has no appetite to eat.
Clearly there is a vacancy over there, why do you have to sit at her table and look at her with such unbridled eyes, which makes her unable to resist.
The man was dressed in a luxurious Satin Robe, with small eyes and shrewd calculation. His appearance was plain, and his facial features had no characteristics. Compared with sun Junhao, who was a graceful young man, he was just a man from heaven to earth.
This who ah, still use this kind of color squint eyes to look at her, really let her chagrin.
Xue Xue takes the bamboo tube rice and gets up to sit at the back table. This bag is still sitting with sun Junhao.
Isn't that fate? Or sit with him with a sense of security, unlike this strange man, more look, let her feel hairy, for fear of provoking what is wrong.
Zhang Man'er doesn't care about this episode. She doesn't understand Xue Chuan's hiding behavior. When there are fewer people in the meeting, she greets Xue Yu and goes to the backyard.
In the wide backyard, Xue Chuan is sitting on a stone bench, holding a teacup in one hand and tapping on the stone table with the knuckle of his finger, sometimes meditating and sometimes frowning.
He was thinking about how the son of the county magistrate came, when he suddenly felt that his eyes were covered with a pair of warm hands.
Don't guess, it's not difficult for him to distinguish just by the touch of these hands and the unique fragrance that belongs to her.
"Man er." He said.
"How do you know it's me?" Zhang Man'er, standing behind him, walked slowly to him.
It's not fun to guess.
Zhang Man'er has a smile on her delicate face. She has a white skin, a small oval face, a pretty nose and clear eyes.
For the convenience of her work, she wore a simple and elegant purple Ru skirt with a fresh and elegant taste.
A white belt around her waist shows her slender waist, which sets off her graceful posture.
Xue Chuan looked at her and said, "Why are you here?"
The voice is not slow, like with some deep meaning, knuckle clear fingers one by one hit the stone table, dull and powerful.
Zhang Man'er didn't understand how he played a deep role. Staring at his resolute face, he wondered, "Xianggong, how did you suddenly come in? Did you deliberately hide from someone?"
"Smart, you can't hide anything from your eyes." Xue Chuan pursed his thin lips and said, "guess who I saw?"
