After hearing the boss lady's question, Zi hesitated and took a bite of the roasted sweet potato.
This bite ate up half of a sweet potato, which made He Yiqi on the side dumbfounded.
Take such a big bite? These are freshly baked sweet potatoes! Won't your mouth be blistered with just one bite?
However, just when He Yiqi thought that if Zi took such a big bite, he would definitely be burned to the point of being unbearable and spit out everything he had eaten, but he found that after chewing it twice in his mouth, he swallowed it directly. Go down.
"What about you? This...this...can't be a sweet potato that hasn't been roasted yet?" He Yiqi asked in surprise.
He seriously suspected that what Zi was eating was a cold sweet potato, so he could just take a bite of it.
As for the steaming sweet potato in Zi's hand...it must be because Zi's nervous hands are hot!
Zi pursed her lips and said, "Well... this tastes pretty good. However, it's still a bit hot to the mouth."
After hearing these words, He Yiqi felt like thousands of horses galloping in his heart. Who eats roasted sweet potatoes as well as you do? It's so true that he didn't even blow on it, but he bit so much in one bite.
How hungry is this? Or is this guy never eaten roasted sweet potatoes...
He Yiqi thought about it for a while and felt that the latter option was more likely.
But this guy's mouth... isn't he afraid of being burned? After taking such a bite, there was no trace of emotion on his face, just like a normal person.
He Yiqi continued to nibble on the roasted sweet potato in his hand while silently observing Zi.
I saw Zi take two more big mouthfuls of sweet potato, and ate the whole big sweet potato cleanly in the blink of an eye.
This scene surprised He Yiqi, "Aren't you afraid of getting burned at all?"
Zi looked back at He Yiqi, chewed the sweet potato in his mouth casually for a few times, then swallowed it and said, "Maybe it's a physical problem. I don't think this sweet potato is very hot."
He Yiqi swallowed hard and looked at the sweet potato in his hand. After hesitating for a moment, he stuck out his tongue to taste the steaming sweet potato, but was so burned that he immediately retracted his tongue.
"Can sweet potatoes taken out of the same stove still be hot or cold?" He Yiqi said to himself suspiciously.
At this time, the boss's wife was also smiling so much that her eyes were narrowed, and Mrs. Biao beside her was also smiling from ear to ear.
At this moment, a carriage pulling an exquisite carriage was racing down the street, causing everyone to avoid it and look at the strange carriage with curious eyes.
The hurried pace of the carriage was in sharp contrast to the slow pace of the pedestrians on the street.
You must know that there are not many people in the small town who can afford such a carriage, and every such person is a famous, rich or noble person in the small town.
However, the coachman driving the carriage wore a shabby straw hat, covering his entire face, and the carriage was also covered tightly with curtains, making it impossible to see what was inside.
"Whose carriage is this? Why is it running so fast on the street? You are so careless!"
"Looking like this, it might be a young man from some town running out! But this carriage looks quite strange, it doesn't look like it's from our town."
"It's possible that they came from other places, but it's almost the Chinese New Year. Why haven't these people gone home yet and are still running around outside?"
"Perhaps they are also people who are rushing home. The Chinese New Year will be the day after tomorrow. Before you know it, the year is coming to an end again."
"Yeah, I've been saying lately that there's going to be a war. There's going to be a war. I don't know how many more days of peace there will be."
…………
After several pedestrians talked for a while, they all sighed and shook their heads.
This peaceful age is just like the snow that is trampled wantonly by horses' hooves. No matter how much the heavy snow last night took care of it, today's pedestrians and horse-drawn carriages will not hesitate at all. They will only go where they have come. The proof is carved in the snow seriously, firmly and selfishly.

"Wait a minute." Zi suddenly called out to everyone.
Unlike He Yiqi who was confused and confused, Aunt Biao and the landlady both looked back at the carriage that was heading towards them.
"What's wrong?" He Yiqi asked.
The landlady said softly, "Someone is coming to see us."
"Who is it?" He Yiqi glanced around and found no one in particular.
At this time, he noticed the carriage that was galloping in the distance. Seeing that everyone was staring at the carriage, he wondered, "Could it be that the carriage is here to find us?"
However, no one answered his question. Aunt Biao just stretched out her hand and pulled him behind her.
The carriage creaked and finally stopped in front of everyone.
Zi then took a step forward and faintly confronted the carriage.
The driver of the carriage turned over and jumped in front of everyone. He smiled and said to the proprietress behind Zi, "This must be the proprietress of Ping'an Restaurant."
Zi's body still firmly blocked the proprietress behind her, staring at the coachman with sharp eyes.
The proprietress smiled and said, "I am the proprietress of Ping'an Restaurant, what? Do you know me?"
The landlady tilted her head slightly, as if she wanted to see the driver's face hidden by his hat, but the driver also tilted his head slightly and didn't want to show it to her.
"Of course the boss lady doesn't know me, but I know you." The coachman sneered, "Your restaurant seems to have received a big business last night. Let me think about it, it seems that there are three men, one woman and a pig. I I want to know when they left and where they went?”
He Yiqi, who was protected by Aunt Biao, was stunned when he heard this.
It seems that this menacing coachman wants to cause trouble for the group of people who came to the store last night. Is the identity of that group of people important? Or did that group of people cause some serious trouble? He was actually being chased like this, and it seemed that this coachman was not an ordinary person. He actually dared to stop so many of them on the street, looking confident and arrogant.
There is also no one in the carriage of his carriage. I don’t know if there is anyone in it. Such a gorgeous carriage is worth a lot of money at first glance. It must be occupied by some powerful person.
Thinking of this, He Yiqi couldn't help but become a little nervous. Ping'an Restaurant was involved in such a big whirlpool this time, and he didn't know if anything would happen! Can the boss lady solve it properly this time? besides……
He Yiqi looked at Zi who was standing at the front of the crowd with some worry. Now he had two female dependents, Aunt Biao and the landlady, plus a young child like himself. The only one who could protect them was this man named Zi. .
For some reason, Ming Ming Zi's body looked so thin and thin when she was changing clothes in the tailor shop, but now standing in front of them, it gave people a sense of security that could withstand all dangers for them.
After hearing the coachman's question, the landlady suddenly laughed, covering her mouth and giggling like a chicken pecking at rice.
The laughter fell on the coachman's ears, it was so harsh and full of ridicule.
"Tell me! Where did they go?!"
The coachman's tone now had a hint of impatience, as well as a faint hint of threat.
But Zi, who had his back to everyone, looked at the coachman with a dangerous light in his eyes.
However, perhaps because of the induction of the warrior's aura, the coachman seemed to think that these people in Ping'an Restaurant were ordinary people with no cultivation, so he did not look at them directly, and naturally he did not see Zi's eyes.
At this time, the surrounding neighbors and passers-by all sensed that there was a lot of excitement to be seen, and began to slowly gather around.
Seeing that the landlady still didn't answer, the coachman showed a trace of regret on his face.
At this time, a male voice, as sweet and sweet as a lark singing, came from the carriage, lingering in the coachman's ears, as if it was just for him to hear.
"I've warned you a long time ago not to be so tough. Although you have hit a wall in other places and suffered a lot of cowardice. But this is not the reason for you to vent here. Look, you can't hold back now. Well. If you keep messing around, you will be a coward again later."
Listening to the instructions from this male voice, the coachman suddenly became a little impatient and said in a deep voice, "If something happens, I will take care of it myself!"
"Haha, can you handle it alone? Although the mission we carried out this time is indeed a bit difficult. Yuzhou, Jingzhou and Yangzhou all sent people to go there. There are too few people in Qingzhou, so we have been bullied. But even so, Miss The young master and the young lady have arrived in Yuzhou safely, and now it’s our turn to feel proud. Now our task is to follow the young lady and the young master and send them back to Qingzhou safely!"
"But...but we have lost so many brothers! They all died at the hands of those sent by the state shepherds! But now look what they said? It was clear that they were still secretly killing people before, and they wanted to He killed the young lady and the young master, but now he pretends to be old-fashioned and warm-hearted, saying that he will send troops to escort the young lady and the young master back. He didn’t take the dirty and dirty things he did before to heart at all!"
The nice male voice in the carriage was silent for a long time this time, and then he said leisurely, "Maybe this is the game between those Zhou Mu adults. You have to understand that we are just pawns in the hands of Zhou Mu adults. He wants to Wherever we go, we have to go, even if we are asked to die, we have no choice but to go."
…………
At this time, more and more people were watching, and He Yiqi looked at the coachman in front of him with some doubts. He didn't know what he was doing. He actually stood there for a long time without making any movement, as if he was distracted.
"What is this man doing? He came to us and didn't tell us what he was going to do. Could it be that he just came to show us that he was in a daze? What a strange man." He Yiqi muttered.
