The young man, who was bloated and whose buttocks covered the Huden beneath him, quickly withdrew his gaze and focused on the young woman, the fried mutton with green onions and shaved noodles that had just been delivered.
He said politely to the middle-aged man opposite him and picked up the chopsticks. He seemed to be very satisfied with the food in front of him. He squinted his eyes from time to time while eating, with a look of enjoyment on his face. Although he seemed to be eating slowly, he was not slow at all.
On the contrary, the middle-aged man seemed to have encountered some puzzling problem. He even hesitated with his chopsticks. He looked at Wang Zi'an's back, frowned, and stopped talking several times.
If you are too handsome, you will be in trouble. People will spy on you wherever you go.
Wang Zi'an was already somewhat accustomed to these looks.
He was calm and calm, minding his own business teasing this cute little girl.
Seeing the little girl happily counting the maltose candies in her hands while talking to him, Wang Zi'an couldn't help but feel slightly happy and asked casually.
"Ying'er, you're so awesome. Can you count?"
"Hmph - big brother, don't look down on Nini. Nini can not only count, but also do arithmetic - my mother even praised me for being good at math -"
Seeing that Wang Zi'an "looked down" on her, the little girl suddenly became unhappy. She raised her nose, straightened her withered body, and gave Wang Zi'an a somewhat arrogant look.
Looking at the little girl's airy posture, Wang Zi'an couldn't help but feel happy and teased her.
"Then let me give you an arithmetic test within thirty, okay?"
"good!"
The little girl pouted her chubby little face and nodded seriously.
"Three people came to buy your mother's biscuits. Each of them paid ten cents, making a total of thirty cents. When your mother saw that they bought more, she gave them five cents cheaper and asked you to give it to them. You secretly Hidden two coins..."
"Hmph - Ying'er is a good child, she wouldn't hide her mother's money..."
Wang Zi’an:……
Is this a question of whether you hide or not?
"This is a hypothesis. Do you know what the hypothesis is?"
Wang Zi'an pinched his eyebrows speechlessly, regretting teasing her with this topic.
"Suppose Ying'er won't steal mother's money!"
The little girl stared at her big eyes and angrily corrected Wang Zi'an, who had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender.
"Well, Ying'er doesn't know how to hide money secretly. It was your mother who asked her brother to help her find five cents. My brother secretly hid two cents and gave each of the three of them one cent. So each of the three of them spent it. Nine coins, so how many coins did they spend in total?"
The little girl blinked her eyes and raised her baby-fat chin proudly.
"I know this. Thirty-nine and twenty-seven. They spent a total of twenty-seven cents..."
The prince said happily.
"Then adding the two cents I hid just now, brother, the total is twenty-nine cents. So where did the remaining cent go?"
"Yeah, where did the rest of the article go?"
The little girl counted on her fingers for a long time, but she still couldn't figure out where the remaining article had gone. Her face turned red with anxiety and she almost cried.
The prince was so happy that he laughed.
"Then I dare to ask this brother, where did the penny go just now?"
Prince An was enjoying himself when he suddenly heard a puzzled voice coming from behind him. Wang Zi'an turned around and saw the middle-aged man in Taoist robes, smiling and nodding at him.
When the fat young man next to him saw him looking over, he forced a smile on his face and nodded slightly at him.
"Brother, please clarify my doubts..."
The middle-aged Taoist priest bowed his hand politely to Wang Zi'an.
"The little tricks to coax the children made you both laugh."
It was just to amuse the children. Wang Zian was not in the mood to play math problems with them, so he simply said politely. Just as he was about to point out the key points for them, he saw a young woman bringing sliced noodles to him, and quickly thanked him. , stood up and took it.
"I am stupid and have not learned the essence of the master's craftsmanship. Please try it first and see if you can still eat it..."
Not knowing that Wang Zi'an was talking to someone, the young woman smiled gratefully at Wang Zi'an.
After learning how to cook noodles and stir-fried mutton with green onions, my business quickly became popular. Not to mention some of the scholars from the Imperial College, even some of the nobles on duty in the palace would occasionally come to her place to have a bite of freshly baked noodles.
The family's originally tight financial situation was immediately changed. Not only could they have enough food and clothing, but they even had a surplus to buy new clothes for their children.
With Wang Zi'an's current perspective, he only needed to take a glance and smell it, and he already understood it. He smiled and nodded.
"It's not bad. It already has a three-point taste. It's just that the cooking time is a little long and it's a little old. You can slowly explore it in the future. When you have the opportunity, I will pass you a few side dishes and you can plate them. In the store, you don’t have to work so hard with your children..."
"What, you passed this shaved noodles to her..."
Before the young woman could speak, the young man with a fat face who was firmly pressed there suddenly stood up in confusion.
The range is a bit big, um, mainly because my belly is a bit big and I feel like I'm in a hurry.
Turn the table over and beat the bowl.
The soup splashed all over the crotch of a middle-aged man in Taoist attire...
The middle-aged man wiped it with a wry smile and shook his head.
"When I went out today, I knew that I was going to encounter an unreasonable disaster today, but I didn't expect that it would come true here——"
Wang Zi’an:……
It’s already this time, why don’t you forget to pretend to be a magic stick!
The obese-looking man did not expect this to happen. His fat face turned red. He apologized to the middle-aged Taoist priest with some embarrassment. Then he took out a bunch of copper coins from his arms and shook his hands to rush into the scene. The young woman, who was stunned by the situation, threw it over.
"This is to compensate you——"
The young woman subconsciously reached out to take it. Then she woke up and asked in a panic.
"I'm sorry, sir, I didn't burn you just now -"
As he spoke, he wanted to return the money.
The people who come and go here are either high-ranking officials or nobles, or they are the young masters of these families. If something like this happens, you will be lucky if you don't cause trouble for yourself. How can you dare to accept compensation from others?
"Keep it—"
The fat young man waved his hand casually.
Then, this guy squeezed onto the table next to Wang Zi'an regardless, looking at Wang Zi'an eagerly.
"Did you pass this knife-shaped noodles to her? Just now I heard you said that the knife-shaped noodles only have a third-level taste?"
As he said this, the guy couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
Wang Zi’an:……
Sure enough, every fat man is a devout gourmet.
For the sake of everyone being foodies!
Wang Zi'an's attitude became much better, and he nodded with a smile.
"real!"
Seeing Wang Zi'an admit it, he immediately beamed with joy.
"I wonder if I can ask the young master to make a bowl with his own hands - the money is easy to talk about -"
