Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 246 Salty Tofu Brain (Part [-])
Ji Wuyan looked up at her, and shook his head silently, Jiangnan's tofu nao is sweet.

Qian Momo smiled and rubbed her hands together, "Old slave, I haven't had breakfast yet, and I suddenly feel hungry and want to eat tofu nao, why don't you... Miss go with this old slave?"

Ji Wuyan was about to open his mouth to refuse, but the other party gave another smug smile, and said rather embarrassedly, "Just, just... the last time the dead boy came back, he took all the money away, and my monthly bill hasn't been issued yet, so..." After speaking, thinking of that person, his expression was silent.

Ji Wuyan didn't think about it, but she believed it. Nanny Qian was a human being, if she directly gave her money to go to the street for breakfast, she would definitely not go by herself.

He didn't refuse any more, nodded and said, "Okay."

The two went to Dongshi together.

In the season of early autumn, the air in the morning carries a hint of coolness, not cold, but just right to refresh the heart.

Qian Momo seemed to talk a lot more than usual, and along the way introduced Ji Wuyan a few more affordable food shops, and occasionally the shopkeeper would exchange a few words with Qian Momo, such as, "The Qian family, how about shopping? Daughter-in-law Son?"

Qian Momo smiled sarcastically, "How can that be, my boy is not so lucky! This is the new owner, and when my girl comes in the future, I can give you a discount if it is cheaper!"

"Okay! No problem! Girls come here often!" He said with a smile, "Such a good-looking girl seems to have a good heart. You are really lucky, Qian family!"

Most of them are pleasantries like this.

After several shops came down, Ji Wuyan received a wave of compliments from strangers, and "Qian's" suddenly became a lucky person that everyone envied.

Qian Momo laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth. She sat in front of the tofu nao shop, she was still smiling cheerfully, and said apologetic words to Ji Wuyan, "Girl, don't blame me, it's just old Dude, you don’t pay attention to your words on weekdays..."

This remark is of course an apology for the phrase "daughter-in-law" just now, Ji Wuyan shook his head, "It's okay." There is a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, hidden behind the veil, the kindness between ordinary people is sometimes more real and simple , without too many conflicts of interests, there is not so much hypocrisy.

These real smoke and fire flavors make people feel ironed and warm.

The tofu nao came up soon, and Madam Qian graciously passed chopsticks and ingredients to Ji Wuyan, and explained with a smile, "They are all old neighbors for decades. I used to work as an errand in the East Palace, when I was not on duty. I just like to come here to have a few bites and talk... You know, in the East Palace, after staying for a long time, there is always a feeling of being isolated from the world, and only when I come out for a walk, I feel that I have come back to life."

As he spoke, he handed over the prepared tofu nao, "Young lady, if you try it, it will still taste good."

Ji Wuyan scooped a spoonful of it. It was a taste that he had never tasted before, but it was not bad.She nodded slightly, "Before in Jiangnan, all I ate were sweet tofu nao, but this is the first time I ate salty ones, it's very novel."

The store at the side enthusiastically sent a few steamed buns, "Is the girl coming back first? The one from Lao Qian's has not been here for a while... For you, try it, our signature, crab rice steamed buns! We are the only one in the whole city Only one!"

"Thank you, thank you!" Qian Momo stood up and took it, "I'm sorry to trouble you... I was too busy to take care of it a while ago, no, I'll come as soon as I have free time. This is our host, so we have to entertain you when you come over." !"

The other party responded with a full mouth, and turned to greet others.

There were a lot of guests at breakfast time, there were more than a dozen tables and chairs in total, and they couldn’t sit down. The later guests didn’t care, and just stood there to eat.

There were also some little girls who came and went in a hurry with their hair in a bun. They looked like maids from rich families. They didn't stop after buying breakfast, and hurried back.

The small shop is like the epitome of a small world.

"Girl." Seeing her eating with her chin propped up and watching with great interest, Qianmo said with a smile, "Mommy doesn't understand many principles, and she hasn't read any books... But Mommy knows, this The world is very big, there are all kinds of people in the world, and there are all kinds of things, good and bad, and it is impossible for a life to be smooth for decades."

Ji Wuyan looked up at her, this was the first time she took a serious look at the woman in front of her.In fact, Nanny Qian is not very old, but she has neglected maintenance all year round, making her look rougher and older than other wives of the same age, but her facial features are good. When she said this, she smiled slightly.

Qian Momo put another crab noodle bun in Ji Wuyan's plate, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "This old servant is talking nonsense, don't blame me."

Ji Wuyan shook his head, "No. You continue."

"Then... the old slave continued!" Qian Momo put down the chopsticks in her hand, sat upright, and then said softly, "Look at these people...in fact, they each have their own troubles, and each has their own problems. Suffering is often unspeakable... But, what should I do? Sleep, wake up, eat a delicious breakfast, and a new day will begin... Life still has to go on."

There is no gorgeous rhetoric, no profound relief, and every word sounds extraordinarily simple and earthy.

Looking at her, Ji Wuyan probably realized that this woman who lost her husband when she was young must also have survived a rather long and helpless time, raising her young son to grow up alone.If it is an ordinary person, it is probably now that the hardships should be paid off, and the children and grandchildren are around the knees.

However, Nanny Qian is still alone now... She wants to help, but there are too many people here, so Ji Wuyan thought that she would ask on the way back after finishing her meal.

The taste of crab meat bun spreads in the mouth, and the breath in the morning is slightly cool, but there is the warm smell of fireworks around, making this world extraordinarily real.

Ji Wuyan lowered her eyebrows slightly, and she whispered, "I know...just, I'm a little worried."

"The girl is smart, so she understands a lot of truths." Qian Momo's eyes fell between the other's beautiful eyebrows, her eyes were soft, as if she was looking at her own junior, "When people are in a bad mood, they should eat something good. Food. If the girl wants to eat anything, just tell Mammy, Mammy will help you cook it, and if she doesn’t know how to do it, she must learn to cook it for you.”

"Thank you, ma'am." Ji Wuyan smiled lightly, and handed over a crab noodle bun, "Since it's your girl's treat today, I'll open it up and eat, and I'll bring some back after eating."

Qian Momo's heart that was always on her mind was finally put down lightly, and she responded with a smile, "Okay! That old slave is not as polite as a girl!"
