Chapter 90: Being Exquisite Is a Style (4)
Huo An got out of the carriage, took a gray light velvet cloak from the hood, shook it out, put it on Su Chang, and tied Dada and Xiao Er with two tendon dog ropes, signaling Su Huan to lead Da Da Da Xiaoer, go into the shop and wait for him.

Su Chang pulled on his cloak and hat, and whispered, "Come back soon."

Huo An smiled and shook her hand.

Dada and Xiao Er jumped out of the car, scared the guy who had just stepped out of the door and hid back, "Oh, what a big dog." He said, but glanced at the girl leading the dog, who lowered her head. His head was bowed, and his face was hidden in a gray velvet cloak hat.

As soon as Su Huan walked into the door of the inn, he wrinkled his nose, and there was a strange musty smell in the air.Also, this inn is really disgusting. When you walk in, you will find a hall with an old taupe wooden floor, with many cracks and rough edges, and it is covered with dust.On the right side of the hall is a curved cabinet, presumably it is the place where the shopkeeper settles accounts and collects money.There were four or five square tables crookedly arranged in the middle of the hall, and a thick layer of putty formed on the bumpy tabletops.

On the opposite side of the hall is a thick wooden screen, showing a mottled dark red color, engraved with simple patterns, or it has been so long that the veins can no longer be seen clearly.

At this time, a lame shopkeeper in a black-brown double-breasted shirt and a dark green jacket limped out from behind the screen. He was about 50 or [-] years old, with a goat mustache, and he stretched out his right hand with a smile on his face. Guest officer, this way please this way."

Bai Qingxun turned his head and waved to Su Huan who was stunned at the door, "Fourth Miss, come and sit here."

Su Huan hurriedly led Dada Xiaoer and walked over.

The lame shopkeeper took a look at her, then stared at the two black dogs beside her, but said with a smile, "Yo, the girl took two big dogs with her when she went out."

Bai Chun picked up a slightly clean table to sit on, shook his hand, "Shopkeeper, pour some pots of hot tea." After speaking, he took out a green handkerchief, wiped the bench, and said courteously, "Come here, young master, four Sit down, girl."

The lame shopkeeper smiled and shouted back, "Maotou, come out quickly and pour water for the customers."

After a while, a man in his 30s and [-]s ran out from behind the screen with a copper teapot in his hand. He was short and tall, wearing a gray coat, with his hair piled on his head like a mess of grass. He came over to pour tea with a silly smile.

Bai Qingxun glanced at his black nails in distaste, and waved his hand, "No, no more. Bai Chun, when Lord Kun and the others come, you lead Bai Zhong and Bai Yi to the backyard and bring the tea set to make tea. By the way, remember to take Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots, the fourth girl likes them."

Bai Chun nodded, and was about to respond when Master Kun's hoarse voice came from behind the screen, "No need, Master, the tea set has been brought."

After finishing the words, Master Kun, wearing a bamboo hat, came out steadily from behind the screen, holding a clay water jar in his hand, followed by the two brothers Bai Zhong and Bai Yi.Bai Zhong held a small stove and a tea set with tea leaves in his hands, and Bai Yi held a few oil-soaked yellow paper bags in his arms.Huo An walked last, wearing a black shirt and black trousers, with a calm face.

Bai Qingxun smiled and nodded, "Master Kun is still thoughtful."

The lame shopkeeper looked at the elegant young master with a smile on his face, waved his hand, and Mao Tou, who was standing beside him holding the teapot, turned around the screen without making a sound, and went back to the backyard.

Su Huan looked sideways, and it turned out that there was a hallway behind the screen, and after walking through the hallway, it was the backyard.

Huo An came over and sat beside her, and she immediately felt at ease.

Master Kun came over and sat down, without taking the bamboo hat, he said in a low voice, "Master, don't be busy, my young master is particular about going out, and he has always prepared his own food and drink. Tonight, I will just borrow a treasure to rest for the night."

The lame shopkeeper named Da Dong's nodded and smiled, "That's that, the masters don't think the small shop is vulgar, that's the blessing of the small shop."

Bai Zhong was busy with the tea set, Bai Yi put the oil paper bag on the table.Bai Chun turned his head, and politely said to Dadong's family, "Dadong's family, you rest and prepare four rooms for us, just clean them."

Huo An looked around and found that the shop was very deserted, and they were the only ones at the table.

The big boss looked at Master Kun, then at Huo An, then at Su Huan beside Huo An, nodded and smiled and backed away.

At this time, Su Huan had pulled off his bamboo hat, his black hair was loose, and he stretched his head to look at the oil paper bags, wondering what the fastidious Young Master Bai prepared for himself when he went out.Oh, shortbread, white steamed buns, salt and pepper noodle naan, spicy dried pickles, three-finger-wide jerky, and a large bag of shelled five-spice peanuts.

Bai Qingxun fiddled with the oiled paper bag, "Huh, no fruit?"

The boy Bai Chun had a headache, "Young master, you ate up all the fresh fruits you bought in Liucheng yesterday morning. Your old man is so condescending, will you find another place to buy them tomorrow?"

Young Master Bai nodded aggrievedly, and directed, "Bai Chun, make tea."

Then, he pushed the greased paper bag in front of Su Huan, "Fourth Miss, you're away from home, and your food is rough, so give in."

Su Huan glanced at Huo An, feeling a little embarrassed, "Mr. Bai, what a shame, why don't we..."

Bai Qingxun accepted her words with a smile, "Would you like some money? Miss Si, do I seem to be short of money? Xiangfeng is a friend, but there are only a few pancakes, noodles, and naan. I still accept money. Liuyichun of our Bai family is closed. Come on, shameless. Also, with the appearance of this small shop, the fourth girl can swallow the food they make?"

The good intentions were hard to come by, Su Huan couldn't help but smiled, and without coyness, he generously took a shortbread and gnawed it.

Bai Qingxun smiled, "The fourth girl smiles like a peach blossom."

Bai Chun quickly coughed.Young master, can you control it a bit, the husband of the fourth girl is still sitting aside.

It's a pity that his young master didn't hold back at all, he looked at Huo An enviously, and said enviously, "Ah An, you are lucky."

Huo An smiled slightly.

Su Huan greeted cheerfully, "Master Bai, Master Kun, you can eat too."

So a table of people began to eat with relish.

Bai Chun was busy making tea while eating, Master Kun and Bai Zhong and Bai Yi just ate and didn't speak, Huo An didn't know how to speak originally, so at the same table, only Su Huan and Bai Qingxun could be heard talking, and after a while they said, In addition to Guzhu purple bamboo shoots, Taihu Biluochun is also good. After a while, I said, this five-spice peanut is quite delicious, is it marinated and then fried?

It was getting darker and darker, and the gloomy wind was blowing in from the door.The boy who was carrying the teapot just now ran out again, carrying two oil lamps with copper gauze nets, and nodded and bowed to light the lamps.When he put down the lamp, he heard Su Huan giggling softly, couldn't help but take a sneak peek, then turned around and left.

The guy in the melon skin hat also came in from the backyard, ran to the back of the music cabinet, and sat there dozing off.

Just after eating, there was a sound like crackling and pouring beans on the roof, very sudden, dense, crisp and loud.

Su Huan tilted his head to look, and shook Huo An's arm, "Oh, it's really raining heavily, really heavy rain."
