Adorable Food Goddess

Chapter 34 Lost Money

"Boatman, is there a silk shop or a tailor shop on the island?" Your son asked.

The boatman said: "There are none of these, but there is a good man on the island who has set up a rescue station. Usually, if someone swims in the lake and falls into the water, they can go to him to change clothes or something."

After the boat docked, your young master went straight to the rescue station that the boatman said, Ye Jiayao followed him, and her food plan fell on him, so naturally he had to follow closely.

After a stick of incense, the nobleman turned into a commoner boy, dressed in a khaki-colored bunt, and because he was tall and long-legged, his trousers were shortened a lot and turned into cropped trousers. His appearance was very funny. I can't help but want to laugh.

The young master was extremely disgusted, and said depressedly: "What kind of shabby rescue station, it costs two taels of silver for just such a tattered clothes."

Ye Jiayao gloated and said, "Who told you to wear a cloud and water green suit, and who else will you beat if you don't take advantage of the rich?"

Now that I think about it, I only have a hundred coppers, which is too cheap, and I suddenly feel psychologically balanced.

"It's all you, if you didn't tear my clothes, why would I wear this?" Your son complained, his groom's clothes were better than this.

Ye Jiayao sneered and said, "How can you be such a big man, don't you think it's annoying to talk about some shit?"

"You young masters are coquettish, hypocritical, spoiled, and feel like the sky is falling over a trivial matter. If one day the family becomes unreliable, I'll see what you will do." Ye Jiayao taught me old-fashionedly. She is much taller, but her face is still childish, and her beard has not yet grown out. She must be younger than her, so she naturally puts on her elder sister's demeanor.

"If a man wants to be able to bend and stretch, what's wrong with wearing homemade clothes? He can't live? There are still many people in the world who can't even wear common clothes. The whole family only has one pair of trousers, and only one belt for hanging themselves, and they have to wait in line. , compared with them, you are extremely lucky, so stop whining about it."

This is the first time your young master heard about this situation, and he found it incredible: "The whole family only has one pair of pants, so how do you wear them?"

Ye Jiayao raised her eyebrows and said, "How to wear it? Those who need to go out wear it, and those who don't have to wear it hide under the blanket."

"You must be lying." Your son couldn't imagine that kind of situation at all.

Ye Jiayao sneered: "It means that you have been to few places and haven't seen the world. What you haven't seen doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

Your son's pretty Danfeng eyes narrowed again, and he said dissatisfied: "It seems like you have seen so many worlds, and you are about the same age as me, how much experience do you have?"

Ye Jiayao curled her lips: "I'm sure you don't know as much about the things in the rich and noble houses, but I know more about the poor people than you do."

As the two talked, they came to a grand and elegant pavilion with octagonal double eaves. Ye Jiayao looked up and saw the words "Lixia Pavilion" written on the pavilion. Here, I had a banquet with Li Yong, the prefect of Beihai, and left a poem that has been passed down through the ages... Haiyou has an ancient pavilion, and there are many famous people in Jinan. It's just that I don't know if there is any old Du in this time and space.

Standing in the pavilion and overlooking it is another scene. The lake is open, surrounded by fields of lotus leaves and green willows, and you can have a panoramic view of the entire Daming Lake.

"The scenery here is very good, not worse than the Qinhuai River." After all, the young master no longer entangled with the matter of clothes, praised. Sure enough, mountains and rivers can cultivate people's sentiments and broaden their minds.

"Are you from Jinling?" Ye Jiayao asked.

Your son raised his eyebrows: "Do you know Qinhuai River?"

Ye Jiayao said disapprovingly, "I've been there before!"

But in another time and space, thousands of years later.

"Where else have you been to?" Your son asked lightly.

"Too many, all over the world." Ye Jiayao said.

The noble young master snorted lightly: "How old are you? You're still far and wide, you're bragging."

Ye Jiayao resentfully said, "If you don't believe me, I will pull you down."

He has been to a foreign country, the other continent, and it scares you to death.

"Buy rock sugar lotus seed soup, sweet and delicious rock sugar lotus seed soup, a bowl of five coppers, cool and quench your thirst..." There was a cry of selling not far away.

Ye Jiayao was overjoyed. This rock sugar lotus seed soup can be regarded as one of Minghu delicacies. The lotus seeds produced here are large and round, plump and fleshy, white and tender, especially delicious.

"Let's go, it's agreed to treat me to something delicious, let's eat lotus seed soup with rock sugar." Ye Jiayao pulled the noble son out of the Lixia Pavilion.

On the side of the road, I found a stall selling lotus seeds in rock sugar, Ye Jiayao said: "Ma'am, here are two bowls of lotus seed soup in rock sugar."

The aunt cheerfully served two bowls.

The young master was at a loss holding the bowl, should he stand by the roadside to eat?

"Hurry up! This is delicious. The lotus seeds here are only comparable to Wuyi Xuanlian in Jinhua Prefecture, and you can't eat them anywhere else." Ye Jiayao has already started, and the meat is crispy and delicious in the mouth, and the cheeks are fragrant. .

Although it is just an ordinary bowl of lotus seed soup with rock sugar, it is also very particular about making it well. The shriveled and yellow lotus seeds bought in the supermarket will not taste good even if they are made delicately. You must choose High-quality lotus seeds, the bitter core inside has been removed, soaked in water overnight, then add rock sugar, white fungus and wolfberry, and cook slowly over a steady fire until the meat is crispy and rotten.

Seeing that he was eating with gusto, the nobleman couldn't help but swallowed, and took a small sip. It was sweet but not greasy, fragrant and refreshing. He happened to be thirsty again. He thought it was very delicious, not worse than the cooks in the palace.

Ye Jiayao saw him sip and sip like a woman, and said: "No one here knows you, why are you still putting on airs and learning from me, you have to drink big gulps to be happy."

The young master looked around, and sure enough no one was thinking of him, so he took a big mouthful.

Cool! happy!

"It's pretty good." The young master laughed, revealing two deep dimples.

Ye Jiayao stared blankly, damn, the man has dimples, his smile is so ecstatic.

The two quickly finished a bowl of lotus seed soup.

Ye Jiayao put down the bowl and wiped her mouth: "You pay."

The nobleman went to touch the money bag, touched it, and was stunned, touched left, right, up, and down.

Ye Jiayao's brain twitched, and she felt a bad rush.

"What's wrong?"

Your young master looked blank: "My purse is gone, but it was there before."

Ye Jiayao: Uh...

"Did you forget to take the purse when you changed your clothes just now?"

Young Master frowned and thought back: "It's possible."

"Hey, I told you to pay quickly after drinking my lotus seed soup. You can't eat for free, and my old lady is also a small business." Seeing that they lost their wallets, the lady who sold the lotus seed soup urged them not to pay.

The young master was embarrassed and said: "You put it on the pad first, and I will find the money bag later and return it to you."

Ye Jiayao said in her heart: If I lost my purse, can I still get it back? She has never encountered such a good thing. It's really unlucky. She originally wanted to find someone to treat her, but now she pays for it. Her poor purse is getting flatter and flatter.

Although reluctant, Ye Jiayao still paid ten coppers.

The two of them searched all the way back, and when they arrived at the aid station, your young master asked the waiter, "Where are the clothes I lost earlier?"

"I don't know, you go and look through the pile of old clothes." The man pointed to a basket with a cold attitude.

Your son doesn't feel dirty or messy anymore, he bent down to search in the basket.

Ye Jiayao leaned on the counter with her arms folded and looked, she guessed he couldn't find it, she had seen his money bag when he paid for the homespun clothes, there were gold leaves and silver bills in it, such a huge fortune , whoever picks it up will not be happy to bloom, can it be returned to you?

The young master turned the basket upside down, but couldn't find his original clothes.

"Didn't you say that they are all thrown here? Why are there none?" Your son asked the buddy.

The clerk said: "I don't know, the people in this store are looking for clothes. Your clothes are not bad, maybe they have been picked up by someone."

Ye Jiayao was observing the guy's expression, and saw that he was very calm, with a frank expression, and you can't just say that he took the money bag.

"Then did you see my purse, maybe it was left in your store when I was changing clothes." Your son still didn't give up.

The clerk said displeased: "What do you mean? We hid your purse? We are a relief station here, and we specialize in doing good deeds. Can we take your purse?"

"I can't ask. What are you doing? You are doing good deeds. A piece of shabby clothes costs five hundred coppers. I think your place is a den of bandits who are just here to steal money." The young master choked back.

"What? You say we are a den of bandits?" The man rolled his sleeves and shouted loudly, "Brothers, someone is here to find trouble."

Immediately, a few guys lifted the curtain and came out from the back hall, all gearing up, aggressively: "Who, who is looking for fault?"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Ye Jiayao stepped forward and said: "Everyone, please be safe and don't be impatient. My brother just changed his clothes and the money bag disappeared. I was anxious. I came back to ask, but he didn't say anything, just asked if you saw it. This is normal, right? If you didn’t see it, you didn’t see it. You don’t have to say that people find fault, right? You are doing good deeds, so it seems that you have a guilty conscience. This guy, I think you are too angry , It is important to maintain the reputation of the store, but if you don't handle it properly, won't it discredit your shopkeeper's face?"

The guy blushed, pointed at the young master and said, "He said that we are a den of bandits."

Ye Jiayao said: "When did he say such a thing? I can hear it clearly from the side. Don't bully people because of how many people there are! Do you know who he is? It can scare you to pee."

While they were in a daze, Ye Jiayao dragged the young master away and said, "Let's go, we don't have the same knowledge as them. If you lose money, you will lose it. It's no big deal."

The young master was dragged out by her, and he shook his hand as soon as he went out: "Why are you stopping me? What can they do to me? The young master punched them so hard that they didn't even know their mother."

Ye Jiayao stared straight at her eyes and scolded: "Do you have any brains? Do you understand that a good man doesn't take advantage of his immediate losses? Besides, do you have evidence to prove that the money bag is in the store? What if the shop is smashed and the money bag can't be found?" , even if you are reasonable, it becomes unreasonable."
