The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 213 Tasting Town
"Wife, what happened to those two people?"

Shang Jingyu was holding a bucket of popcorn, a bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts, a bag of grilled skewers, and bags of different sizes in his hands. He followed Qu Si Ning and asked, "Should we wait for them?"

Qu Si Ning was eating barbecue skewers. She turned around when she heard the sound and saw from afar that Xia Yu and Luo Fan were finally holding hands.

"You're so stupid." Qu Si Ning said, stuffing a piece of barbecue into Shang Jingyu's mouth, pulling him in another direction, and said seriously: "The couple is having a quarrel, now is a good time to make peace, why should we go over and join in the fun?"

"Oh oh..."

Shang Jingyu nodded twice and quickly followed Qu Si Ning away.

There was a long banner at the entrance of the town, with the words "Seeking Taste Food Culture Festival" written on it. The food street was very large, with a circular shape, and a long line of stalls, selling all kinds of food.

There were families, foreigners and most of them were young couples. Almost every vendor's stall was full, with festive music and delicious food, people were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Although Xia Yu and Luo Fan were holding hands, it was always Luo Fan who was finding topics to talk about. Xia Yu rarely spoke in return, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

"Little fairy, what do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you." Luo Fan said with a flattering smile.

"I don't want to eat." Xia Yu said no, but his eyes were fixed on a certain stall.

Luo Fan followed her gaze and saw that the stall was selling barbecue.

In fact, there were many barbecue stalls, and there were two next to theirs. Why did she choose that one?

It seems that the boss is not here yet, and a foreign lady is watching the stall...

"I'll go by myself." Xia Yu said, leaving Luo Fan behind and going to the barbecue stall.

Luo Fan had no choice but to follow her slowly and watched Xia Yu walk to the stall from a distance.

In front of Xia Yu were a few foreigners who spoke a language that Xia Yu couldn't understand. She was just busy queuing and didn't talk to them.

"Oh, my God! There is such a beautiful girl!"

The foreign waitress had a braid, dark skin, big bright eyes, and when she smiled she showed two rows of neat and white teeth.

It was the first time she had seen such a beautiful girl. She stared blankly at Xia Yu who was queuing behind her. She forgot to turn the skewers in her hand because they were burnt.

The foreigners in the queue in front of her saw that the skewers were burnt and got angry, so they hurriedly reminded her. Everyone didn't understand who she was looking at so intently, so they turned around to look.

It wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't looked at it, but when he did, Xia Yu was scared.

A tall, strong foreign man with a black beard turned to Xia Yu and said, "WOW! Nice to meet you, pretty girl! Hello, my name is David. What's your name?"

"Do you like kebabs, too? Why don't we eat together!" said another foreign man.

Several foreigners looked at Xia Yu in unison, but Xia Yu could not understand a word of their conversation.

They seemed to realize that Xia Yu didn't understand what they were saying. They looked at each other and laughed awkwardly.

Finally, a handsome foreign boy said, "OK, ladies first", and then they all stepped aside and made a "please" gesture.

I couldn't understand what they were saying was true, but Xia Yu could still understand the "please" gesture.

The problem is that……

Xia Yu walked to the front and was about to order some skewers when she saw a foreign lady smiling and saying to her, "Hello! What would you like to eat?"

cough cough...

Xia Yu knew this language, it was called "English", she just couldn't understand it.

When Senior Brother Bai Yu was conducting the "Mortal Language Training Course" in Heaven, she felt that since she would not have the chance to descend to the mortal world, it would not be of much use, so she spent all the training time playing games with a few fairies.

It is true that "one only regrets not having enough knowledge when one needs it", Xia Yu regrets it so much!
The foreign girl had no choice as her boss was away on business and her job was to serve foreign guests who did not understand Chinese.

So, Xia Yu stopped talking and just took a plate, put all her favorite skewers on it and handed it to the waitress.

The problem was solved temporarily, but when it came to paying... More than ten minutes later, Xia Yu came back with a bag of grilled skewers with a bright smile on his face, but he accepted the money as soon as he saw Luo Fan.

Seeing that Xia Yu didn't understand English, Luo Fan was secretly happy and waited for Xia Yu to ask him for help. Who knew that Xia Yu solved all the problems without even saying a word.

Looking closely at Xia Yu's lit mobile phone screen, Luo Fan realized that someone had taught her to use "online translation".

"Is it delicious?" Luo Fan asked with pretended curiosity.

Xia Yu started eating without answering Luo Fan.

Her WeChat messages kept ringing, but she couldn't read them because she was holding a skewer. Seeing this, Luo Fan snatched her phone and found that she had added a foreigner, who told her in English, "We can chat through a translator in the future."

Luo Fan was unhappy, but he didn't show it. He just blocked the new friend silently.

"Just enjoy the food with peace of mind. I'll keep your phone for you. What if you encounter a thief again?" Luo Fan said seriously.

So, Xia Yu turned off his cell phone and went into Luo Fan's bag, occasionally snatching a few skewers of grilled food.

At first, Xia Yu didn't pay much attention to Luo Fan, but as they ate, he forgot about it and actually started talking about food with Luo Fan.

The two of them ate and walked around, and unknowingly arrived at "Tofu Lane".

All the stalls in this alley sell stinky tofu, so the alley is filled with a strong stench.

When they were at the entrance of the alley, Xia Yu smelled the stench and refused, but was dragged into the alley by Luo Fan.

"What are these? They stink!" Xia Yu said while pinching his nose with his hand, with a look of disgust on his face.

Luo Fan smiled and replied, "Stinky tofu."

"Tofu?" Xia Yu looked at it for a while, remembering the tofu she had eaten before, and asked in confusion: "The tofu I ate last time was white and not smelly!"

In order to attract customers, vendors selling stinky tofu introduced how delicious their own stinky tofu tasted, and praised the couple as "a talented man and a beautiful woman, a match made in heaven."

Most of the vendors were young or middle-aged people. Luo Fan pulled Xia Yu into an old man's stall.

To be precise, the old man was not alone. His wife was sitting next to him, but she couldn't help much and was just there to keep him company.

Luo Fan ordered a plate of stinky tofu, and seeing that the old man was too busy, he went to help.

"Little girl, this young man is very hardworking! He is suitable for living a good life, so you should seize the opportunity!" The old lady said to Xia Yu with a smile.

Xia Yu looked at Luo Fan's busy back and felt even more conflicted.

She didn't know what the meaning of this last meeting was. She was about to return to heaven, so it would be better to separate now and let Luo Fan meet his destined person as soon as possible - get married and have children.

“Stinky tofu is here!”

Luo Fan picked up a piece of roasted stinky tofu with chopsticks and said it was the first piece for Xia Yu to eat.

"I won't eat it, it stinks!"

"Try it, it won't taste bad anymore."

“No…”

"Try it! If it doesn't taste good, spit it out."

"don't want……"

The old lady watched the two of them pushing each other and suddenly said, "Little girl, it's not easy for my old man to bake a piece of stinky tofu, please don't drop it on the ground and waste it! It's okay to eat a few more pieces, but if you waste one piece, I will fine you!"

Whether it is a deity or a mortal, hearing the word "fine" is always sensitive. Xia Yu looked at the serious old lady, hesitated for a moment, and finally twisted his nose, closed his eyes, and ate the first piece of stinky tofu.
