Chapter 6 6. Kitten
“Fragrant and crispy fried fruit!”
Yuyao has not yet deployed a soundproof array, and the yard is close to the bridge, so the cries of the vendors on the bridge can be heard.
Today is the Lantern Festival. When the sky is slightly bright, the lanterns made a day in advance have been hung in the streets and alleys. The fiery red color provides a touch of warmth to the cold streets.
Although it's still dark, some shops have already gotten up early to prepare breakfast, and some are even about to open their stalls.
In a long day for mortals, the first time the smoke of human beings appears is in the morning.
When Yuyao turned his consciousness outside, he found that passers-by had already flocked from the streets extending in all directions to the small carts of the breakfast vendors in the streets and alleys. The lively people coming and going selling food brought a lot of life to the cold streets.
Mortal food has no effect other than satisfying the desire to take it orally. It is really troublesome to take body tempering pills to remove impurities from the body after eating mortal food.
Impurities in the body will affect the speed of practice, but who doesn't like a steaming bowl of hot porridge in the morning to soothe a hungry stomach all night long? Especially today, there will be many more vendors than usual, so there is more to choose from.
A few more points, too.
Yuyao has not eaten ordinary food for many years. One reason is that the food in the mountains is really unpalatable.
The old mortal man with a load on the other street from where she lived seemed to have a very good breakfast, and many people went there early in the morning.
Yuyao didn't use magic, and walked along the river outside the house.
There are many rivers and bridges in Dongshan Town, and the creatures carved on the bridges are also diverse. No one will know what is carved on the bridges unless you look closely.
Yuyao walked across a small stone bridge with koi carvings on it, and suddenly felt a curious and obscure gaze from the bridge. Yuyao looked up and saw a chubby and chubby kitten carved on a stone pillar at the head of the bridge.
.
The kitten's head is facing her direction, or towards the bridge. The craftsman who carved the kitten is very skilled and made the kitten's expression vivid.
Yu Yao glanced at the kitten for a few times, then looked back at the stone pillars around the kitten. He found that there was only such a strange kitten on the bridge. The other forms were normal, and he was immediately confused.
When she was about to leave, a child passing by the bridge saw her paused gaze, and a soft voice came out vaguely from her mouth full of red bean paste buns, "Sister, you also come to see the kitten."
Son?"
Yu Yao glanced at the chubby little girl who looked like a child with two small bags on her head and said, "Mao'er?"
The child was innocent and innocent, only three or four years old. He couldn't tell the difference between immortals. He only thought that the elder sister in plain clothes looked dull.
After the little baby swallowed the bean bun in his mouth, he pointed to the kitten on the bridge with his little finger like a little lotus root, "My father said that there is a fat cat on the bridge. It is Maoer Bridge, and it is this fat little cat."
"
The child looked at the round kitten on the bridge again and seemed to have thought of something. Then he pursed his lips and said angrily, "This kitten is so fat. It doesn't look like me at all. Dad lied."
people!"
Yu Yao took a look at the little girl who looked like a doll in the New Year paintings, and then looked at the little chubby cat on the bridge who looked a bit amused now, and suddenly felt that she looked quite similar.
At least, they are all chubby.
But when Yuyao saw the child's unconvinced look, he couldn't help but smile.
Before the little girl could say a few words to her, her family found this naughty little guy.
Not far from the little girl, a woman with the same round figure appeared. She was carrying a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables in her hands. When she saw the child, she scolded her, "You are a kitten, right? You run so fast.
If you know how, you will be thrown into the cat's nest, and the monkey spirit next door will take you away and make you his child."
The little girl seemed unconvinced. She squeezed the bean bun with only one mouthful left, pointed at the uncle selling tofu cakes at the bridge, and said, "But didn't grandma say yesterday that she wanted to buy tofu cakes from me? I clearly saw this.
It’s over there, you have to go that way!”
The child still had an aggrieved look on his face, as if you didn't want to buy it for me, so you just lied to me.
The woman looked at the child who was bent on getting into the tofu cake and was speechless. "Eat this sweet tofu cake this morning. Be careful that you will have a toothache later. Who had a toothache yesterday so much that he wanted to see Dr. Zhang?"
.”
The child also remembered that she had a toothache yesterday, and immediately covered her chubby little face. The bean bag that she had not finished eating was also pressed to her face with her paw, turning into a little cat, but the little kid didn't feel anything at all.
Something feels wrong.
The little guy glanced at the old man who was watching the show on the bridge with a troubled look, then looked at his mother-in-law, hesitated for a while and then said tentatively, "Well, are you going to eat something salty today?"
"Pfft~" This was the kind laughter coming from the old men around who couldn't hold back their melons.
Yuyao, who was watching on the sidelines, soon saw the woman choked and speechless. Then the chubby child very skillfully handed a few coins to the old man selling tofu cakes.
The little boy shouted for more chili oil, but was scolded by the woman on the side. In the end, he only added a little side dish similar to shredded pickles.
The child seemed to have an inexplicable obsession with the bean curd. Yuyao, who didn't know what to eat in the morning, became more interested, and then walked to the old man selling bean curd at the other end of the bridge.
The old man who sells bean curd has been making tofu for fifteen years, and most people in the city have seen him. When he saw Yuyao for the first time, he knew that Yuyao was not an ordinary person. In a world where immortals and mortals are mixed, and at this time, the old man also
Guess Yuyao’s identity.
"What flavor of beancurd would you like, girl? I made this freshly made bean curd this morning and it tastes great."
The old man sat on the pony of his cart and pointed at the two large vats in front of him, "On the left is sweet cold bean curd, which can be added with honey water. On the right is still warm salty bean curd, with string beans, chili, pickled cabbage and shredded vegetables."
"
Generally, early-rising customers will choose the warm salted tofu pudding, paired with his exclusive shredded sour beans and coriander. If you like spicy food, add a little more spiciness. The tofu pudding is tender and delicious, and the accompanying side dishes are also refreshing and tasty. Eat this bowl on a slightly cold day.
It’s a lot more comfortable to go down there. But there are also people who buy sweet tofu pudding in the morning, just like half-grown children. Even though the salty tofu pudding is delicious, they have an irresistible love for sweets.
Yu Yao touched the money bag she changed, and then ordered a bowl of sweet bean curd. The bean curd was not expensive, only two yuan.
At this time, the little girl hadn't gone far, so when she saw the little beast with black and white eyes on Yu Yao's money bag, she thought it was quite cute, so she shouted that the woman wanted one too.
"Yes, you want everything. I'll buy you some more arithmetic books, do you want it!" the woman cursed, "Why can't I see how active you are in doing math? You're everywhere when it's time to eat!"
The child wasn't angry either, and went back stubbornly, "Dad doesn't learn arithmetic either, so why should I learn it? I also want to be a physical practitioner, not arithmetic!"
The woman suddenly choked when she thought of her husband-in-law, "Don't imitate your useless father! He only knows how to fight. Isn't it good for a girl to use a whip?"
The woman's words made the little girl angry, and she cried out miserably, "I don't want to learn the whip! Oh, oh, oh, oh, it hurts when you spank me! When I learn Daddy's golden body, you can spank me."
It doesn’t hurt anymore!”
"Pfft..."
For a while, there were friendly laughter all around, and many old men tried to persuade the woman. The woman was so angry that she picked up the little girl and rushed home regardless of her image.
Hey, if you have time, treasure~ invest a little bit... eh
