Rebirth of the Imperial Uncle's Medical Concubine

Chapter 177 Jiangnan Rich Merchant (2)

After both of them left, Xiao Hanqi also got up and left to find Li Yue.

Soon Xiao Hanqi found Liyue. What was Liyue talking about with Limeng?

When Li Meng saw Xiao Hanqi coming, she quickly stood up and said to Xiao Hanqi, "Brother-in-law, you're here!"

Xiao Hanqi nodded, as a greeting to Li Meng, and then said to Li Yue, "Yue'er, let's go out for a walk!"

When Li Yue heard what Xiao Hanqi said, she said excitedly, "Okay!" Li Yue turned to look at Li Meng and said, "Meng'er, let's go together!"

Li Meng looked at Li Yue and then at Xiao Hanqi, shook her head at Li Yue and said, "Sister, forget it. I won't go and ask for trouble. I am more sensible about current affairs!"

Li Yue heard Li Meng's teasing, glanced at Xiao Hanqi who was looking at her with a doting face and said, "Okay! Let's go then!"

After Li Yue finished speaking, she reached out and took Xiao Hanqi's hand and left.

Liyue and Xiao Hanqi did not take a carriage, but strolled leisurely on the street. Liyue looked at the beautiful streets and rivers crisscrossing on both sides of the road. The river water flowed leisurely, reflecting the scenery on both sides.

There are numerous shops on both sides of the street, with various signs hanging at the door. In the silk shop, the gorgeous silks are like clouds and clouds; in the tea house, the faint fragrance of tea hits you; and there are stationery stores and antique shops, all full of strong cultural atmosphere. From time to time, the graceful sound of Pingtan and the melodious sound of flute can be heard from the streets and alleys, adding a bit of charm to this ancient street.

Pedestrians shuttled through the streets, including leisurely old people, hurried merchants, and children playing and fighting. Their figures blended with the ancient streets, forming a vivid picture of the Jiangnan market. At this time, a breeze blew by, blowing off the sycamore leaves, and also bringing the poetry and tenderness of Jiangnan.

Liyue felt the tenderness here and looked at the people around her. She suddenly felt that she was really lucky. Although her previous life was also vulnerable, God was still very good to her.

Xiao Hanqi felt Li Yue's gaze, smiled and said to Li Yue, "What's wrong, Yue'er?"

Liyue smiled and shook her head without saying anything. Liyue let go of Xiao Hanqi's hand and walked through the streets alone. Whatever Xiao Hanqi liked, he would buy it.

The two of them walked around like that until Liyue's stomach made a growling sound.

Li Yue looked at Xiao Hanqi with a blushing face, and Xiao Hanqi then remembered that they seemed to have not had lunch.

Xiao Hanqi looked around and found a steaming noodle stall on the corner of the street, which exuded an enticing aroma. A person was skillfully pulling and boiling noodles, and then adding various delicious condiments, and bowls of delicious noodles were presented to the diners. The noodles were of uniform thickness, soft and chewy, as if telling of the chefs' superb skills. The noodle soup was clear to the bottom, with a little oil floating on it, exuding a rich bone aroma. Coupled with fresh vegetables and mellow meat sauce, every bite was a kind of enjoyment. The diners sat around the table, tasting the delicious noodles while chatting about the world, it was so lively.

Xiao Hanqi pulled Liyue to stand in front of the noodle stall and said to Liyue, "Can I eat this?"

Li Yue nodded and found a place to sit down. Xiao Hanqi also sat down and said to the noodle stall owner, "Boss, two bowls of noodles, please!"

The boss looked at Xiao Hanqi and the other person, and from the way they were dressed, he could tell that they were from good families. The boss hurriedly served them, fearing that he would show any neglect!

Soon the boss gave two bowls of noodles to Xiao Hanqi and the other person. Li Yue looked at the noodles in front of her, swallowed her saliva, picked up the chopsticks and started eating quickly!

Li Yue took the first bite and found the noodles really delicious. When she put it in her mouth, a wheat aroma instantly spread, mixed with a light salty taste. If she tasted it carefully, there was a slight spiciness, which came from the special seasoning, stimulating her taste buds just right.

The noodle soup is rich and delicious, with rich layers, as if all the flavors in the world are integrated into it. Every bite makes people feel the mellow taste, which is endless aftertaste!

Soon a bowl of noodles went into Liyue's stomach. Liyue put down her chopsticks in satisfaction, only to find that Xiao Hanqi had been looking at her and had not eaten the noodles. Liyue looked at Xiao Hanqi in surprise and said, "Why aren't you hungry or do you dislike the environment here?"

Xiao Hanqi said with a doting look on his face, "No, I just think the moon is really beautiful, no matter what time it is."

Li Yue heard what Xiao Hanqi said and said with a smile, "Why is there honey in this noodle? Let His Royal Highness Prince Han say this after we finish eating it."

Xiao Hanqi smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, there is honey!"

Liyue heard Xiao Hanqi's teasing, but ignored it and listened to what the people around them were talking about.

At the table next to Liyue, two men were talking. The man in blue said to the man in black, "Have you heard? The government is hiring now!"

The man in black looked at the man in blue in surprise and said, "Recruiting people, what kind of people?"

The man in blue looked at the surprised man in black and said, "Don't you know? It's the rainy season and we need to repair the dam!"

The man in black said with disdain, "Repair the dike, does his government have the money? We talk about repairing the dike every year, but the court doesn't give us money, so we have to do it for free! I really don't know what the emperor is thinking, sitting in Kyoto all day, not caring about the lives of us here!"

When the man in blue heard what the man in black said, he quickly looked around and said, "Keep your voice down. If someone with ulterior motives hears you, you're done for."

The man in black said disdainfully, "You dare to do it but you dare not let others say it. Bah~!"

The man in blue quickly persuaded, "Yesterday I heard that a big man came here. That man can help us get through the rainy season!"

The man in black looked at the man in blue in surprise and said, "Is this true? Don't tell me he is another one trying to rip off the people."

The man in blue shook his head and said, "I heard it was the God of War, His Royal Highness King Han!"

The man in black reminded Han Wang of the two words, stood up in surprise and said, "Really? That's great, our Jiangnan City is saved!"

The man in blue pulled the man in black down and said, "Are you going or not?"

The man in black thought for a moment and said, "Let me think about it again! I don't know if it's true!"

Li Yue didn't listen to what he said next, and directly said to Xiao Hanqi on the opposite side, "It seems that you have a certain status in the hearts of the people! If you were asked to go find those wealthy businessmen, would they not even take the capital and just give it to you?"

It’s not like Xiao Hanqi didn’t hear Li Yue’s sarcasm, but he finished his noodles even faster.

Xiao Hanqi stood up and said to Li Yue, "Okay, Yue'er, let's go back quickly!"
