Chang Sheng is super hungry, and devoured everything regardless of how it tasted.
Shui Mo picked up his chopsticks and took a long time to eat one strand of noodles. It is hard and salty and the smell is revolting.
Ren Yue continued to sit there without touching the bowl. He did not eat, nor did he move. He just smiled.
"Ren Yue, why didn't you eat? Is the food that your teacher made so hard to eat?" Sir Song Tao finished all the noodles and was black-faced when he saw that Ren Yue did not eat anything.
"Ren Yue dared not! Ren Yue is just marvelling at teacher's skills. Not only is teacher a learned man, he is also skilled in cooking. I was lost in my thoughts, and will immediately try teacher's cooking!" Ren Yue gritted his teeth, and lifted up the bowl of noodles.
He is well known to be very picky about his food, and seek perfection.
But this bowl of noodles - regardless if the taste or quality, is really…. Yuck!
Unfortunately, this bowl of noodles was cooked by his teacher. He had no choice but to try his best to swallow them, however bad they may be.
For a bowl of noodles, Ren Yue took over the time it took to burn a joss stick to finish!
The noodles are so hard, and salty that he finds it a torture just to eat.
Under his calm demeanour, Ren Yue was sobbing in his heart! Ren Yue arh, Ren Yue! He who rather go hungry than to eat food that does not meet his expectations was forced to eat this bowl of noodles. Ren Yue swore that he had never eaten something as disgusting as this bowl of noodles before.
The next morning, they all woke up very early.
You can tell that the noodles Sir Song Tao cooked last night are really horrible. Some of them woke up in hunger after puking the noodles out secretly last night. Some of them could not digest the food and was sleepless all night.
"Teacher, I will go out to purchase some study materials and will be back soon!" As soon as Ren Yue noticed that Sir Song Tao wants to cook and prepare breakfast, he immediately created an excuse to get away from this ordeal.
"Go ahead," Sir Song Tao turned on the fire in the stove.
Shui Mo looked on with fear. Heavens, what kind of breakfast will he cook this time?
Ren Yue rode on Reflect Snow as they gentle made their way to town.
"Ren San!" a familiar voice cried out.
"Shen Yaoshan!" Ren Yue leapt down from his horse.
"Do you know what Sir Song Tao is staying at? Let me know, so that I could report back to the capital!" Shen Yaoshan brought his aides with him, and they were enjoying some soya bean curd (known as soy pudding in US / Europe).
The hot soya bean curd paired with the freshly baked bread. Ren Yue used his hand to rub his empty belly.
"Teacher like peace and quiet, therefore I have arranged for him to live in the North Green Stone Alley. After you have passed these woods, you will reach his adobe. Shen Yaoshan, you better go back! I will inform him of your goodwill on your behalf!" Ren Yue answered simply.
"Since that is the case, thank you very much! When are you going back to the capital?" Shen Yaoshan asked.
"I am free and will be staying with teacher; as a military general, you have a have restrictions. I advise you to go back quickly!" Ren Yue replied.
"Take care!" Shen Yaoshan raised his fist and cupped them in greetings, then he and the rest of his soldiers immediately mounted their horses and left.
“Boss, how much is the soya bean curd?" Ren Yue saw that Shen Yaoshan had left and turned around and asked the boss.
"1 copper coin for 1 bowl! Guest, do you want any bread?" The middle age selling the soya bean curd said. Then he lifted up his head and saw Ren Yue and just stood there unmovingly with his mouth opened.
How come there is such a 'pretty' person? How come he is a man?
Even the other customers in the stall are also stunned and their jaws dropped. All of them forgot to eat the hot soya bean curd in their hands!
Ren Yue sighed. He wanted to sit here and eat a bowl of soya bean curd. But when he saw this situation, he knew that if he sits here, everyone will stand and gawk at him.
He waved his hands and smiled, "It is all right, I am just asking!"
Then he mounted Reflect Snow and headed to the Drunken Immortal restaurant.
"Oh, Sir, you are a bit too early. We open at noon…." Zhu Zi was opening the door, and saw the man in white. This time, he is very early!
Yesterday, didn't he dine with the distinguished guest? Why did he come here so early in the morning?
Ren Yue ignored him, and entered the dining. He did not even pick a VIP room, and just sat at a corner table.
"This gentleman…. You….." Zhu Zi did not know what to do.
"Waiter, this is some money. Go outside and purchase some clean food for me. The rest are tips for you." Ren Yue said this, and took out some silver bits.
"All right! Please wait a moment!" As soon as Zhu Zi heard that are tips for him, he ran faster than a rabbit!
"Ouch, aiya! Zhu Zi, are you being chased by a dog this morning?" Zhu Zi was running as fast as he could and accidentally banged into Wen Shouzhen.
"Chef Wen, Good morning! Good morning, sister Rou Er!" Zhu Zi smiled as he scratched his head, "The man in white from yesterday came back again, and asked me to purchase some breakfast for him."
"Ren Yue!" Wen Rou exclaimed in surprised.
"Rou Er, what did you just say?" Wen Shouzhen was surprised.
"Oh, yesterday when I served the distinguished guest, I found out that the man in the white robes is called Ren Yue." Wen Rou stick out her tongue, and quickly come up with a lie. She was flustered and almost let the cat out of the bag.
"Oh, it is too early! Does this young master Ren wants anything else?" Wen Shouzhen was worried. He thought that this Ren Yue would suddenly request for something strange again.
"Brother Zhu Zi, let me buy it! Manager Li will arrive in a short while. If he could not see you, he will surely raise a ruckus! Father, you better asked and see the reason for young master Ren's visit." Saying this, Wen Rou immediately grabbed the money from Zhu Zi's hands and immediately rushed out.
She knows Ren Yue tastes well. Although she wanted to avoid him, but when she heard that he is hungry, she forgot all about this. All she could think of is buy him something to fill his belly.
"Boss, one portion of sticky rice cake, no sugar, please!" Wen Rou made a beeline for the most famous dim sum stall in Xianyang.
The soft and sticky rice cake is fresh and hot. Although there is no sugar added, it could not hide the fresh smell of the sticky rice cake.
Wen Rou was afraid that the sticky rice cake will become cold. It is winter after all, and she carefully wrapped it and hugged it tight against her chest. She ran and ran, and almost dropped her shoes.
When she reached the doors of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, her demeanour changed. She took out the hot sticky rice cakes, and slowly and leisurely strolled into Drunken Immortal Restaurant.
"Here you go! This is your change!" Wen Rou placed the sticky rice cake in front of Ren Yue, and immediately headed into the kitchen.
Ren Yue did not know how to react.
Just now, Zhu Zi came back and informed him that someone else had been assigned to buy it.
He thought that the breakfast will be You Tiao, Bread Toast, Meat Bun or roast meat. These are the most common breakfast items after all.
But never did he expect that the food in front of him is the sticky rice cake that he loves to eat the most!
Nor did he expect that the one who purchased this is none other than the 12 years old lass called Wen Rou.
This is really a fine lass!
Ren Yue suddenly laughed.
The sticky rice cake was still warm and looks good.
Ren Yue used his slender fingers to pick a piece and placed it into his mouth.
This cake…..
This is the taste that he loves the most - the sugarless variety.
"Here, have some tea!" A cup of hot Pu Er tea that was still steaming hot appeared in front of Ren Yue.
When he turned around, all he could see is the back figure of Wen Rou as she made her way back to the kitchen.
