Chapter 76 Sugar-fried chestnuts

"What's wrong?"

Liu Ruiying approached and asked.

Zhao Mingming just shook his head and did not tell Liu Ruiying.

Tangfried Lizi told her that she had just seen the figure of the lover by the window. Although it was a vague shadow that could not be seen clearly, the unique lonely and cold aura on his body made her speechless in that moment, and even her breathing stopped subconsciously, as if she could avoid the terrifying aura.

This one-armed weirdo left a deep fear when she first saw him in Sugar Fried Chestnut. Then she kept following her and the lady in a dim mood, which made Sugar Fried Chestnut feel deeply uneasy.

However, she also knew what reason was to break up her lover, and this reason was the biggest secret between her and her daughter Zhao Mingming.

I think Zhao Mingming didn't tell Liu Ruiying because of this kind of concern.

There are some things that cannot be said even to the closest people.

When Liu Ruiying saw that Zhao Mingming didn't want to say anything, he stopped asking questions.

Although I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, everyone has their own space, and they will more or less keep some secrets in such a space.

He himself had a lot of things Zhao Mingming didn't know, so he could understand Zhao Mingming's feelings. She must have her own reasons for doing this.

When I thought about it this way, I felt much more comfortable immediately.

Only in a way that is comfortable for each other can last for a long time.

"Don't you want to eat fried chestnuts with candy? Now there is still some time left before the rice mouth, so you can buy it!"

Zhao Mingming said to the candy fried chestnuts.

She was also confused, but it was not because of the appearance of her lover, but because of Liu Ruiying. His failure to ask does not mean that he could really be calm in his heart.

Their relationship is already awkward. They have more than half of their friends and their lovers have not yet pointed out. Even if they are tacit, they still feel that they are a bit bad.

She doesn't like this hazy feeling, which makes people always know what to do next. She has experienced this for the first time, and she doesn't know whether she is right or not, whether this method will hurt his heart, and whether it will bring the distance between them further.

But her mind wanted to break the deadlock, but her mouth was rationally stopped her, which made her unable to say anything, so she could only lead the topic to the candy-fried chestnuts.

The candy fried chestnuts really want to eat the candy fried chestnuts, but I just saw the figure of the lover who broke up, so I was a little timid about walking out of Xiangteng Inn. But Zhao Mingming gave her a reassuring look and handed the Ou Jiajian called "If I Are Me" that Liu Ruiying just gave her to the candy fried chestnuts.

"Miss, don't you go?"

Asked the Sugar-fried Chestnut.

The lady didn't go, and her desire to eat chestnuts was mostly relieved.

"I won't go. When our Liu Shengqi has time later, we will take me to visit Zhongdu City!"

Zhao Mingming said.

After saying that, he smiled slightly at Liu Ruiying.

"You go and call Huanong, let's buy it now!"

Liu Ruiying said to the candy fried chestnuts.

After a while, Huanong came to Zhao Mingming's house. Liu Ruiying gave him the last Ou family sword and asked him to give him a name. Unexpectedly, Huanong shook his head and said:

"Sword is a sword, no name is needed."

Liu Ruiying and Zhao Mingming looked at each other and felt helpless. However, they had to admit that Huanong was right. Swords are swords, different from people, and they did not need to be distinguished by names. Such titles often become a burden. Although it is extremely interesting to give their swords a satisfactory name, Huanong obviously did not think so.

Huanong loves the sword but will not give it a name. In his eyes, he is the same as the sword. He is neither the master nor the sword is nor the slave. Only the slaves ask the master to give it a name. Perhaps every sword has a name that he likes at the moment he makes it. But people don’t understand the name of the sword and just impose their own thoughts for granted on it. That would be unfair.

He held the sword and kept rubbing the scabbard with his hands. The scabbard of the sword was very smooth, without any bulge, and without any carved patterns. When he touched it, it was as warm as a spring water, and it felt as clear as a feeling.

"Why don't you pull it out and see?"

Liu Ruiying asked.

"The first time I set out the sword, you must have an excellent reason, you can't just waste it!"

Huanong shook his head and said.

His entire spirit was on this sword at this moment, and it was obvious that he liked it very much.

Liu Ruiying and Zhao Mingming have long been accustomed to Huanong's strange ideas and remarks. Now this sword is his own thing, so of course it is time to draw the sword.

"Thank you, uncle!"

Huanong pulled the sword for a cup of tea before turning around, clasped his fists solemnly, thanking Liu Ruiying.

But Liu Ruiying turned his body, stretched out his right hand, held his arm, and made Huanong's worship fail to take shape. The reason is very simple. This sword is Liu Ruiying's compensation for his nephew, and it cannot be considered a gift. After returning to Zhongdu Inspection and Quezhu, Liu Ruiying planned to prepare well. One was to welcome Huanong to join Zhongdu Inspection and Quezhu, and the other was that he, the uncle of his master, had to give his nephew a decent meeting gift. In the final analysis, Huanong was still Xiao Jinkan's apprentice, the supreme Onmyoji, the successor of Taibai. If Xiao Jinkan did not accept disciples in this life, then Huanong would inherit all his mantle and become the new Screaming Onmyoji, Taibai.

"Then we'll go first and we'll be back before dinner."

Liu Ruiying said to Zhao Mingming.

Then he walked out of the room with Huanong and the fried chestnuts.

Ou Xiaoe, Deng Pengfei and Bi Xiangyu were standing in the corridor chatting. It is not difficult to see from Ou Xiaoe's relaxed expression and occasional laughter that these three people should have had a good conversation. She was careless and had some prejudice against Deng Pengfei because of the porridge pan before, but now it should have been completely resolved.

"Where are you going?"

Ou Xiaoe turned around and saw Liu Ruiying and her party and asked.

"Let's go buy some sweet chestnuts."

Liu Ruiying said.

"Why did you suddenly want to eat candy fried chestnuts?"

Ou Xiaoe asked in surprise.

Liu Ruiying did not make a sound, but pointed to the candy-fried chestnuts beside her.

Ou Xiao'e looked at the tender face of Candy Fried Chestnut and felt that the little girl was familiar, but after thinking about it, she couldn't remember where she had seen her, so she could only look at Liu Ruiying with doubts.

"Bogu Tower."

Liu Ruiying said in a short cut.

"I remember you just called the sugar-fried chestnuts, right?"

Ou Xiao'e asked.

The candy fried chestnuts were not familiar with her, so she just nodded timidly.

"Haha, it's really fun to eat the sweet-fried chestnuts! Let's go, my sister will take you to eat the best sweet-fried chestnuts."

As Ou Xiao'e said that, she was going to pull up the hand of the candy-fried chestnuts, but she didn't want to be held by Ou Xiao'e. Her hand slipped out like a loach.

In order to avoid embarrassing Ou Xiao'e, Liu Ruiying walked downstairs with the two of them. Deng Pengfei and Bi Xiangyu found an empty house for a while, and they still had a lot to discuss.

"Do you know which one of the best candy stir-fried chestnuts in Zhongdu City?"

Walking out of Xiangteng Inn, Ou Xiaoe asked Liu Ruiying.

"Of course it's Xu Ji!"

Liu Ruiying said.

Xu Ji's roasted goods are the best in Zhongdu City, which is well-known. During the Chinese New Year and the holidays, whether it is the nobles or ordinary people, they will come to Xu Ji Zhong to buy some roasted goods such as melon seeds, peanuts, chestnuts, etc. However, ordinary people need to queue for an hour or two, and those nobles will send servants to book early, and just wait for it to be taken out of the pot and then directly use a carriage to take it away.

Since Liu Ruiying became sensible until now, Xu Ji’s status as a roasted man is no other store that can match him. When he told Tangfried Chestnut that he wanted to treat her to the best sugar fried chestnuts, this one in his mind was the first thing he thought of.

"wrong!"

Ou Xiao'e said firmly.

Liu Ruiying couldn't help but frown.

Ou Xiaoe has only been to Zhongdu City for a few days, and where can she force her native people to understand? Besides, Xu Ji’s reputation for roasted goods is there. Although the price has increased year by year in recent years, the quality has not changed at all. It is not a store that is not worthy of its name. Why does Ou Xiaoe dare to assert that it is not the best?

"A person like you probably squats in the courtyard of the Zhongkou Quarantine Department every day, and rarely goes out to walk around the streets... Although I haven't been here for a long time, I have gone in and walked through every dead end in Zhongdu City."

Ou Xiao'e said.

Liu Ruiying curled his lips. He admitted that what Ou Xiao'e said was correct, but he could not accept her tone and tone that belittled her.

"The Zhongdu Investigation and Inspection Department is naturally very familiar with Zhongdu City! Even if you go out for a few, you won't be able to find a delicious candy-fried chestnut."

Liu Ruiying said.

Ou Xiaoe no longer argued with Liu Ruiying. She shook her hands and two extra handfuls of candy fried chestnuts appeared in her palms from somewhere.

"These two handfuls of candy fried chestnuts are from Xu Ji on one hand and from other families. Try it and see which one is delicious."

Ou Xiao'e said.

Liu Ruiying was not picky. He took a candy and stir-fried chestnut, opened the shell, and put it in his mouth, but there was no difference. But he was wondering why Ou Xiao'e actually had so many candy and stir-fried chestnuts.

Compared to Liu Ruiying's unsatisfactory taste, the sweet chestnuts lit up after eating them. The one on Ou Xiao'e's left hand is obviously much better than the one in her right hand. Whether it is the size or the softness of the chestnuts, it is much better than the one in her left hand. The chestnuts in her left hand have a sweet taste on the surface. After biting the chestnuts in her mouth, it becomes a bit chewy. However, the sweetness of the syrup in her right hand penetrates into all aspects of the chestnuts, and the fragrance remains on the lips and teeth until it is swallowed into her stomach.

"This is not Xu Ji!"

Ou Xiao'e said proudly.

"Since you think it's delicious, then go to this store to buy it."

Liu Ruiying spread her hands at the candy fried chestnuts and said.

The so-called best taste, the standard for the word "most" is still determined by people who know how to eat it. If it is famous, Xu Ji's fried meat is naturally more famous. But when Liu Ruiying saw the appearance of the candy fried chestnuts just now, she knew that she had completely denied Xu Ji. However, Liu Ruiying was still very curious where Ou Xiao'e found this candy fried chestnut that can make the candy fried chestnuts very satisfied.

“What’s the name of this store?”

Liu Ruiying asked.

"Mrs. Xiong's candy fried chestnuts."

Ou Xiao'e said.

Liu Ruiying reiterated the name of the store again, thinking that it was really concise. Most of the stores in Zhongdu City pursue elegance. If the name is just literal, they don’t know what the store is doing. Putting his name together with the goods sold and turning it into the store name directly is rare. However, Liu Ruiying also became a little interested in this "Grandma Xiong's Candy Fried Chestnuts".

Following Ou Xiao'e, she walked into an alley. A tall red-bottomed yellow trick was hung at the entrance of the alley, with the words "Mrs. Xiong's candy fried chestnuts."

"After eating these chestnuts, wouldn't we all become the grandsons of Grandma Bear?"

Liu Ruiying said jokingly.

"As long as it is delicious, it doesn't matter! Besides, this grandma Xiong is indeed old and is not considered as taking advantage of us."

Ou Xiao'e said.
