“Freshly baked yokan soup is here!”
A loud voice came, and Jin Wan was seen carefully carrying a wooden plate and walking into the main hall with small steps.
On the wooden plate, there was a bowl of mutton soup and two pancakes.
Because the mutton soup was too full, Jin Wan didn't have time to look up, and naturally he didn't notice that his grandson was gone.
Ta, ta!
After placing the mutton soup and pancakes in front of Gu Ning'an in turn, Jin Wan made a gesture of invitation and said with a smile: "Mr. Gu, please use it."
Even before eating it, Gu Ning'an could already see the difference between the bowl of mutton soup in front of her and what Granny Sun had made.
Speaking of the knife skills alone, each piece of mutton sliced by Grandma Sun is evenly sized and just right in fatness and leanness. Whether eaten alone or mixed with pancakes, it will not look obtrusive and greasy.
But in the bowl in front of me, some of the mutton slices were hanging on the surface of the soup, while others were sinking at the bottom of the soup. The fat and thinness were even more ridiculous, with some being completely lean and some being completely fatty.
As for the aroma of the pancakes and mutton soup, not to mention, there is almost no aroma wafting out, and the pancakes even look a little raw...
Gu Ning'an was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Jin Wan, no matter what you do, you need to persevere. You can't do it well just by sharpening your skills in battle."
"If you really plan to take over Grandma Sun's yokan stall, you might as well calm down and study hard."
Jin Wan naturally knew that he was doing something wrong, but he clearly remembered that when he was studying at home, he thought it was very simple, but when he actually did it on his own, he was in a hurry.
However, no matter whether the yokan soup is good or not, he did it to elicit the next words: "Sir, you are right, I have been too impetuous these years."
"Now that my mother is older, the craftsmanship of yokan cannot be lost in my hands. I will definitely study hard and strive to make yokan worthy of Sun Kee's signature."
At this point, Jin Wan changed his voice, waved his right hand and said, "My family is prosperous and he has been smart since he was a child. I think he is a material for reading."
"I wonder if you, sir, can accept him as a disciple. Whether it's teaching him how to read or write, or how to be a good person, that's fine."
Noticing that there was no movement behind him, Jin Wan didn't look back. He just smiled and shouted: "Xingwang, come closer and let Mr. Gu take a look at you."
Gu Ning'an cleared her throat and said calmly: "Just now, your grandson ran away with the wine jar."
"What!" With an exclamation, Jin Wan immediately turned around and saw the idiot looking at him with round eyes!
"What happened to my grandson? Why did he suddenly run away?"
"The child is still young and immature. Did he say the wrong thing and hit Mr. Wang?"
While Jin Wan was speaking, he kept bowing his hands and observing Gu Ning'an's expression.
As the saying goes, you can never hit someone with a smiling face.
The "speculative" behavior of the Jin family's grandfather and grandson may be acceptable outside, but it really doesn't work in Gu Ning'an's case.
If it weren't for Granny Sun in the middle, I'm afraid Gu Ning'an would have talked things out at the door and declined the other party's request.
"Jin Xingwang just bumped into Mr.... He insisted that the wine he bought was home-brewed!" Hu Shi responded first.
Upon hearing this, Jin Wan, who reacted very quickly, immediately guessed exactly what happened. Realizing that things had been messed up, he could only apologize continuously.
Gu Ning'an shook his head and said: "It's okay, I won't care about a child, but I won't accept a disciple, so you don't have to bother to please me in the future."
"This... this..." Jin Wan wanted to apologize several times, but didn't know what to say. In desperation, he could only respond: "Then Jin will leave first, Mr. Naonuo. "
"Go ahead and take the six hundred coins from the table." Gu Ning'an said calmly.
Jin Wan said "Hey", grabbed the string of money on the table, and left Ansi's courtyard with the same stride.
It happened that not far after he walked out, Jin Xingwang, who was hiding on the corner of the street, caught up with him.
Looking at Jin Wan with an ugly face, Jin Xingwang pouted and said: "Grandpa, it's okay if we don't worship this master. I've never seen that immortal live in such a shabby place. He eats porridge with pickles in the morning. It's bitter at first glance. .”
"How many immortals have you seen?" Jin Wan frowned and continued: "As you said, even if the matter is exposed, why should you not apologize but insist on contradicting others?"
Jin Xingwang responded angrily: "It's all that idiot's fault. He humiliated me one after another, and I couldn't hold it back!"
"And that Mr. Gu, my wine is obviously better, but he insists on drinking that Chi'er's wine. He obviously thinks that I am not as good as that Hu Chi'er!"
"Hey! You still say that!" Jin Wan raised his hand, lowered it slightly, and said with a long voice: "That's it, that's it, our old Jin family seems to have no such fate."
Bang! Bang!
The sound of dull footsteps came from the corner of the street. The grandfather and grandson of the Jin family looked around and immediately saw a tall man in rough clothes walking towards them.
The tall man's face was pale, and he had an iron weapon and a bamboo basket on his waist. His hawk-like eyes were also looking at the Jin family's grandfather and grandson.
"Snake catcher, you are so damn unlucky!" Jin Wan cursed secretly, pulling his grandson to stand aside, planning to wait for the other party to pass before walking towards home.
However, when the snake catcher walked not far in front of them, he said: "May I ask this old man, does he know where Mr. Gu lives in Ansi Courtyard?"
Hiss~hiss!
The cry of snakes came from the bamboo basket around the snake catcher's waist. Jin Xingwang was so frightened that he hid behind his grandfather and shivered.
Jin Wan swallowed his saliva and said with a smile: "I wonder, brother, why are you looking for Mr. Gu?"
Snake catcher Meng Wu frowned: "Do you know Mr. Gu?"
"We know each other naturally. Just now, I just came out of his courtyard." Jin Wan said with an indifferent expression.
"I see... You have to ask me about the situation. Are you afraid that I will be harmful to my husband?" After Meng Wu finished speaking, Jin Wan's aura changed and he said seriously: "Of course that is the case. After all, you still have With the iron snake, I have to ask clearly before I can show you the way, right?"
Meng Wu looked down at his outfit and smiled: "It makes sense, but I'm afraid I can't hurt you sir..."
"That's all, it doesn't hurt to talk."
"A few days ago, I asked my husband to do a fortune telling... He is really a god. If it weren't for his advice, I would have become a withered skeleton in the forest... Now I I have prepared hundreds of taels of silver just to thank you sir for your life-saving grace..."
