Qiao Xiaomai spoke with an air of confidence that left Qiao Changshun somewhat dubious.
Qiao Dami, being younger, hadn’t thought much. He believed whatever Qiao Xiaomai said. He took the melon seeds from Qiao Xiaomai’s hand and began nibbling them one by one, he loved this salty snack!
“Dad, let’s go, let’s buy some soybeans first,” Qiao Xiaomai suggested.
He didn’t seem to believe her now, but once she actually produced the goods, he surely would.
Qiao Changshun paused for a moment, then slowly drove the donkey cart towards the grain shop.
After buying two hundred catties of soybeans, rice, and flour, the cart was half full. Then they bought a variety of seasonings: oils, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and finally visited the pork stand.
Bones had to be bought; bone soup was nutritious and delicious.
Pig intestines, she also craved a bit of this. Buy it.
Pork belly – she hadn’t realy indulged in meat since they arrived. Buy it. Make braised pork when they get home.
And of course, pig’s feet were also necessary.
Seeing the live chickens being sold, Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t help but salivate; suddenly, she had a strong craving for braised chicken feet, duck neck, and chicken wings.
Unfortunately, the town didn’t sell these separately, only entire chickens, so she gave up on that idea.
When all was said and done, several taels of silver were gone and the donkey cart was filled up.
By this time it was noon, and Qiao Xiaomai felt a bit hungry, so she suggested, “Shall we go to the Zuixian Building for lunch?”
After eating, they could rest there, and then she would teach them how to make tofu.
After buying a cart full of things, Qiao Changshun was somewhat numbed. Upon hearing Xiaomai’s suggestion, he hesitated for a moment and then headed the cart towards the Zuixian Building.
They parked the cart behind the Zuixian Building. Qiao Xiaomai went ahead to knock on the door that was opened by a new waiter. After she explained her intentions, he promptly went to call the shopkeeper Zhou.
Shopkeeper Zhou still wore his warm smile, “Come in, come in.”
Upon seeing this, the young waiter ran to fetch the donkey.
Once the cart was brought into the courtyard, Shopkeeper Zhou said, “You are our honored guests. We have a private room upstairs, please come this way.”
Qiao Xiaomai blinked, “Shopkeeper Zhou, any seat on the first floor will do for us.”
“How could that be?” Shopkeeper Zhou intentionally feigned displeasure, “We at the Zuixian Building can surely afford to offer a meal, follow me upstairs. When the young master returns from the academy, 1 will send someone to inform you.”
Shopkeeper Zhou persisted in his invitation, and Qiao Xiaomai no longer declined. She followed him to the second floor and into a private room.
The private room here was similar to one at the Extreme Flavor House, mainly designed for scholars from the academy. Upon entering, one felt as if they were gaining the air of literacy. The coarse cloth outfit she wore almost seemed to gain some dignity from the refined atmosphere.
Shopkeeper Zhou was not at all stingy; he had all the restaurant’s signature dishes brought up to fill the table.
The sight of the beautifully made, great tasting dishes set before them made the eyes of Qiao Changshun and Qiao Dami stare in fascination.
KQiao Xiaomai picked up her chopsticks and invited them, “Eat all you want. Whatever we can’t finish, we’ll take it to go.”
After having traveled so long, at this moment, she truly felt as if she had returned to the future.
This was how her life should be.
“How much does this meal cost…” Qiao Changshun muttered under his breath.
He was shocked into numbness once again.
Following his daughter, he’d seen and experienced more in these few days than in his thirty-plus years of life.
“Eat up. This meal is on the Zuixian Building,” Qiao Xiaomai said as she picked up an enticing rib with her chopsticks and placed it on Qiao Dami’s plate, “Go ahead.”
It was just a meal, she could simply reduce the price of the tofu skin she was selling later on..
