Chapter 23

Although the old man at the end of the bridge made trouble, the jelly sold very smoothly that day. A bucket had been sold out just after noon.

The old man at the bridgehead was arrogant at first, but Li Hongmei's combat effectiveness was both hot and lasting. The old man could not take advantage of anything at all. He was not only unable to take advantage of it, but also pointed out by passers-by that he was unkind and bullied the widow by selling jelly for a long time.

At noon, the old man at the bridge head went back to the old site at the bridge head.

After noon, the sun was hot, there were fewer pedestrians in the street, and all the creatures seemed to wilt and lazily lost their spirit.

Vendors who set up stalls in the street usually eat at this time. Ye Xiaoxian also said to Li Hongmei, "Mom, what do you want to eat at noon? I'll buy it for you."

Li Hongmei thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea and said, "I heard from my uncle and third uncle that there was a shop selling baked cakes near the Yamen. The baked cakes were very delicious. Several times they secretly bought them back and ate them. They thought I didn't know. Hum, leaves, why don't you go and buy two and let's try them?"

Ye Xiaoxian said with a smile, "OK, I'll go and buy it now."

After walking for a while, ye Xiaoxian realized that Li Hongmei didn't want to eat pancakes at all, but wanted to create opportunities for her and xiaobaoshan.

……

Ye Xiaoxian has been wandering in the county these days. She knows which direction the Yamen is in.

Qinghe County is not big. There are only four or five streets. Now it's hot. The streets are cold and the roads are hot. Ye Xiaoxian sweated after walking for a while.

It was not easy to walk near the yamen, but I saw that the yamen gate was very busy. It seemed that all the pedestrians on the street rushed to the Yamen.

Many trees were planted around the Yamen. The dense branches and leaves covered the sun tightly. The cool wind under the shade of the trees isolated all the heat from the outside.

Ye Xiaoxian also quickly went to the shade of the tree, and then subconsciously looked for the tall figure in the crowd.

People here are in twos and threes. Some chat together, some play dice together, and some sleep in the shade of the tree.

Ye Xiaoxian looked around and finally found the familiar figure under a big banyan tree.

He sat lazily under the tree. He took off his factotum mandarin jacket and put it aside. There were several factotum with him, also lazily leaning against the tree pole.

Although they all have the same posture, ye Xiaoxian just thinks Xiao Baoshan is more outstanding. No matter what kind of posture he has, he can make a picture of a handsome man for appreciation.

Ye Xiaoxian was hesitating whether to go over and say hello. However, a girl came from somewhere. The girl went to xiaobaoshan with a food box.

The girl was sixteen or seventeen years old. She was dressed in a blue skirt, tied a piece of silk cloth on her head, and her hair was braided into a big braid. She was slim and slim, and her little face was red.

When she arrived, all the lazy servants were in high spirits, sitting straight one after another, and some joked:

"Xiaoya, what are you eating today?"

"I thought Xiaoya wouldn't come today. I almost wanted to buy a big steamed stuffed bun just now!"

"Why doesn't Xiaoya come unless it rains, because... We have Baoshan here, hahaha..."

“……”

The girl named xiaoya'er didn't speak, but smiled shyly. At the same time, she opened the food box in her hand with steamed bread and big cakes.

She took out the steamed bread and big cakes, distributed them one by one, and then covered the food box.

But when she was ready to leave, she suddenly stopped to look at xiaobaoshan. She was just opposite xiaobaoshan's eyes. She became more shy and hurriedly took the food box and left.
