Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 34: Meeting an acquaintance at the wonton stall

This was undoubtedly like a shot of chicken blood for Gu Yan.

But he also knew that catching game depended on luck and was something that could only be encountered by chance.

In the past, the traps he set could only catch three or two wild animals every ten days or half a month. How could he have caught several like this time?

Moreover, he had never caught wild animals like foxes and porcupines before, so he didn't know how he had such good luck this time.

He thought it over several times in his mind and became more determined to consolidate the business with the Zhao family, but he remained calm on the surface.

Gu Qingzhi was getting bored waiting on the ox cart, but soon she saw her brother.

Gu Yan politely said goodbye to the servant of the Zhao Mansion and walked quickly to the ox cart. He carried Gu Qingzhi down from the ox cart and carried one of the large backpacks. He said to Gu Chen, "Uncle, please drive the ox cart to the old tree at the east gate of the county town to rest for a while. I will take my sister to the market first."

Then he opened the paper bag in his hand, and inside were six white flour buns. "This is what Manager Zhao gave me just now. Let's each have two to fill our stomachs first."

Gu Chen didn't expect that he would give him steamed buns, and kept refusing, "No need, Brother Yan, I brought it myself." Who would charter a car and provide food at the same time? It doesn't make sense. People usually bring it themselves.

Gu Qingzhi quickly took two steamed buns and stuffed them into Gu Chen's hands, "Uncle, just take them, we have more."

After saying that, he pulled Gu Yan and ran away quickly.

Gu Chen sighed silently. These two kids are too kind.

But since this was the case, he had no choice but to carefully put the white flour buns into the cloth bag he carried with him, which also contained the black steamed buns made from multi-grains that his wife had made for him early in the morning.

Ordinary people can only afford white flour buns during festivals, but Yan'er and his sister gave him two at once!

Gu Chen had no intention of eating it himself, so he quickly put it away and went back to let his family taste it.

But these brother and sister are really amazing. In just a short time, they took away one third of the things in the car.

It seems that the two children from Gu's family are not just fooling around.

The brother and sister who were being talked about were completely unaware.

The two of them walked along the street towards the market and delayed for a while at Zhao's house to unload the goods. It was now past lunchtime and there were not so many people in the restaurants and eateries on both sides of the street.

"Qingqing, what do you want to eat?" She didn't want the steamed buns just now, so she asked him to put them away first.

Gu Qingzhi looked around as she walked. She finally made it to the county town, so how could she only eat steamed buns?

There were all kinds of shops on both sides of the street, and she felt like she couldn't take it all in with her eyes.

Suddenly, she saw a wonton stall in front of her, so she looked at it a few more times. She could smell the fragrance of the wontons from a long distance away, which vaguely aroused her appetite, and she couldn't help swallowing.

Gu Yan, who had been paying attention to her with his head tilted slightly, naturally noticed this. He couldn't help but curl his lips slightly, "Qingqing, do you want to eat wontons?"

"Yeah." Gu Qingzhi's attention was on the wonton stall in front of her. Alas, why did she feel like she was getting hungrier and hungrier?

Little greedy cat, he couldn't help but rub her head and took her hand to walk towards the wonton stall.

Standing in front of the stall, Gu Yan looked at the prices on the sign. It said that a large bowl of meat wontons was 10 wen, a medium bowl was 7 wen, and a small bowl was 5 wen, while vegetarian wontons were 3 wen cheaper.

After looking at the price, Gu Yan said to the busy woman, "Madam, please give us two large bowls of meat wontons."

"Okay, sir, please find a table and sit down first."

Eh, we don’t need a big bowl. Gu Qingzhi looked at the wontons that the guests were eating and felt that it was a very big bowl. She quickly whispered to Gu Yan, “Brother, I just want a small bowl. I can’t eat the big one.”

Although she was craving for wontons, Gu Qingzhi was aware of her appetite. She glanced at the wonton stall and saw a table of customers sitting in front of a huge bowl. She couldn't finish it all, and a large bowl of meat wontons cost 10 cents. Although they sold a lot of mountain products today, they had to save money and not be so wasteful.

Gu Yan took her hand and walked to an empty table. He wiped the stool with his sleeve and let his sister sit down when he saw that there was no dust. He also sat down next to her. Seeing her greedy look, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's okay. If Qingqing can't finish it, give it to your brother."

Gu Qingzhi recalled that when she was having dinner in the restaurant yesterday, her brother took over the food she couldn't finish.

Her little face couldn't help but blush, but then she thought that he was her brother, so there was nothing to be afraid of, so she nodded in agreement.

The two of them whispered a few words about where to go next, and soon the wontons were served.

All Gu Qingzhi had eyes for were the two big bowls of plump wontons. The plump white wontons were floating in the big bowls, sprinkled with some chopped coriander and green onions, looking very delicious.

She hadn’t eaten wontons for a long time, so she was craving for them. She was planning to go back and ask her mother when she could make some wontons for her. She wanted to eat those stuffed with mushrooms, cabbage, and meat. Oh, by the way, she could go to the butcher shop later to see if there was any meat left…

The woman put down the wontons and stared at them. Suddenly she said, "Hey, aren't these the young man and woman who sold wild fruits yesterday?"

Gu Yan, who was holding the chopsticks and preparing to pass them to his sister, was stunned when he heard the woman's voice. The brother and sister looked up at her together. Sure enough, this lady looked a little familiar.

Gu Qingzhi thought about it and soon remembered that this was the lady who bought them three bunches of grapes and six persimmons at the clinic yesterday.

I didn't expect such a coincidence.

"Yes, ma'am, is this your stall?"

The old lady exclaimed, "Oh, yes, it's a small business. I was wondering why you two look so familiar."

She wanted to say something else, but at this moment, another customer came in, "Boss, give me a big bowl of vegetarian wontons!"

"Hey, here I come." The old lady replied loudly.

She hurriedly said "Enjoy your meal" to Gu Yan and the others and went back to the stove.

Gu Yan waved towards Gu Qingzhi, handed her the clean chopsticks, and looked at her with amusement, "Come back to your senses, Qingqing, eat it while it's hot."

"Oh oh." She came back to her senses after she answered, but she was worried when she saw this. There was really too much food in this big bowl. She looked at her brother and then at the bowl in front of her. She was embarrassed to eat it herself and then give it to her brother.

Seeing her worrying about the big bowl in front of her, Gu Yan shook his head and laughed, moved his bowl over, scooped some wontons from Gu Qingzhi's bowl and put them in his own bowl, "You can eat all of this, right?"

Gu Qingzhi smiled bitterly, picked up the chopsticks reluctantly, and quickly put several wontons into Gu Yan's bowl, until his bowl could no longer hold any more. Then she reluctantly curled her lips and said, "I tried my best."
