Chapter 193 Unhealthy Delicacies!

As he spoke, Grandpa took out several red hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and handed them to Chen Mo.

“This is what your dad transferred this month. He transfers 10,000 yuan to the two of us old folks every month. We can’t possibly spend it all. You guys can help us out.”

Chen Mo knew that his parents would transfer money to his grandparents every month, so he accepted the money his grandfather handed him without paying any attention.

This time, Grandpa gave Chen Mo a full 1000 yuan.

For high school students, this amount of money is a considerable sum if used as pocket money.

"I'm giving you this money so you can take Yuqing to eat good food. Don't you dare embezzle it." Grandpa reached out and tapped Chen Mo's forehead.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll pay you back any extra later."

Grandpa smiled casually and didn't take it to heart.

He never worried about money; he only controlled the money to prevent Chen Mo from developing bad habits.

Therefore, Chen Mo has always been rather stingy when it comes to spending money on him since he was a child.

The main focus is on controlling his spending habits.

Now that the kids are older and have brought their girlfriends along, it really won't be enough if I don't give them more money.

That's why he gave so much at once.

"Isn't Grandma going?" Su Yuqing asked curiously as she saw Grandpa preparing to leave with the two of them.

"Your grandma doesn't really like crowded places, so she won't go," Grandpa replied with a smile.

"Wouldn't it be bad to leave Grandma alone at home?" Su Yuqing was a little worried about her grandmother.

Because she had experienced loneliness deeply since she was a child.

So when she hears that her grandmother is home alone, she inexplicably feels the loneliness she once felt.

"Don't worry, she's fine. She needs to catch up on her sleep this afternoon, so she's probably asleep right now," Chen Mo said with a smile to Su Yuqing.

Hearing Chen Mo say this, Su Yuqing nodded in understanding.

At this moment, Grandpa couldn't help but take another look at Su Yuqing. This child had an unexpected gentleness and thoughtfulness.

They noticed that their grandmother was not there and worried that she might be lonely.

This is something that not everyone can easily notice or care about.

Especially at this very self-centered age.

Many people think about problems from a self-centered perspective and rarely consider how others might feel.

At this point, the grandfather was becoming more and more satisfied with his granddaughter-in-law.

I also hope that the two of them can get together.

After leaving home, the three walked for about a mile before arriving near the stage.

Before they even got close, Su Yuqing could already feel the excitement around them.

Because you can hear the bustling noise from a great distance.

At the same time, the sound system on the stage continuously emitted powerful sounds, impacting the surrounding area.

"Looks like it's about to start, I'll go watch the show first. Momo, you take Yuqing and have a good stroll around the neighborhood."

Upon arriving, they saw that the performance had already begun on the stage. After giving Chen Mo some instructions, Grandpa quickly walked to the front.

"I don't understand this play at all, and I don't know why the old folks like it so much," Chen Mo said with a laugh.

"Actually, I don't understand it either. When I used to watch plays with my grandma, I would fall asleep in her arms until the end. It's almost become my lullaby," Su Yuqing joked.

Since the two people knew nothing about opera, they naturally weren't very interested in the performance on stage and simply strolled around the vicinity of the stage.

Whether the performance on stage is good or not, or whether it's captivating, is unimportant. What's truly captivating are the stalls surrounding the stage.

Stalls selling Sun Wukong and Ultraman masks attracted many children, while stalls selling various small toys and accessories attracted young men and women.

There are also some old objects that attract older people to linger.

However, the most bustling area was the one selling food.

Here you can find almost all kinds of snacks in Jiangcheng.

Chen Mo glanced at Su Yuqing's stomach and said with a slight smile, "How's your digestion going? We have an even more important task to complete later."

"It's all digested," Su Yuqing replied with a smile. "It's rare for me to eat so much today, thanks to Grandma for cooking so many dishes."

"If you eat happily and enjoy your meal, that's the most satisfying thing for her, and all the hard work will be worth it."

Hearing this, Su Yuqing was once again moved by her grandmother's attitude towards her.

Soon, Chen Mo led Su Yuqing to the snack street.

There are so many snacks here.

Chen Mo led Su Yuqing to a fried food stall.

"Let's eat some unhealthy food today."

This stall is filled with all kinds of skewered food, such as rice cake skewers, tofu skewers, cauliflower skewers, chicken skewers, pork chop skewers, and so on.

After you select your food using the small square box, the owner will put all the food into the oil pot next to you for deep-frying.

Then, place the fried food on the charcoal grill and start seasoning with the pile of bottles and jars in front of you.

Although it's true that eating too much fried food isn't good, it's just so delicious!

This was Chen Mo's favorite food when he was a child.

Whenever there's a show to watch, he'll crave this taste.

This fried food, seasoned with a variety of flavorful spices, has a unique and delicious taste.

It was a flavor that Chen Mo couldn't find at the city's barbecue stalls later on.

Su Yuqing had basically never eaten this kind of thing before, because her grandmother was quite health-conscious, so she didn't buy her these things to eat when she took her to see plays.

At this moment, just smelling the aroma of fried food and the fragrance of various seasonings, Su Yuqing could tell that these things must be delicious.

Before long, the owner had prepared all the food and packed it into bags.

The area around the stage is all roads, and there are so many stalls that there's no room to set up tables and chairs for people to sit and eat. But at the individual stalls, people eat what they're selling by hand.

Chen Mo carried the bag, took out a skewer of fried rice cakes sprinkled with various seasonings and coated with jam, and handed it to Su Yuqing.

Su Yuqing looked at the tempting-looking string of rice cakes and immediately felt her appetite whetted. She took it and took a bite.

Instantly, a soft, sweet, and savory flavor exploded in her mouth, while the aroma of the seasonings filled her nasal cavity, elevating the entire dish to a whole new level.

It's amazing how delicious the food is from such a small street food stall.

This was something Su Yuqing hadn't anticipated at all.

Seeing the light in Su Yuqing's eyes after she finished a bite of fried rice cake, Chen Mo smiled and said, "How is it? It's delicious, isn't it?"

"Mmm." Su Yuqing smiled happily and nodded as she ate the delicious food.

"If you haven't had enough, we can walk around for a bit and then come back to buy more later." Seeing Su Yuqing's happy smile, Chen Mo was also filled with joy.

He smiled and led Su Yuqing on a continued stroll forward.
