Chapter 46: Chapter 46

When he arrived at Yuan City, Guan Chibei first went to the restaurant to sell the goat. Then, he went to the docks that were bustling with people and ships sailing back and forth. He looked for about two hours before turning around and leaving. He wandered around the city again and entered the best pastry shop in the city, ‘Yuan Cake Shop.’ He bought two boxes of the best-selling pastries, which were sweet wine rice cakes and osmanthus cakes. Then, he made his way back.

In the house, Ye Lulu tasted the highlight pastry of ‘Yuan Cake Shop.’ After eating it, her expression changed slightly, and she said with an indescribable expression, “It’s alright.”

As the name implied, sweet wine rice cake was made from sticky rice. There was a slight fragrance of wine inside. It was soft and sticky to the teeth when eaten. The taste was alright and the texture was average. The osmanthus cake was a little more delicious. The ancient authentic osmanthus cake was different from the ones sold in chain stores in modern tourist attractions. This still had a handmade charm. The osmanthus flavor was strong and the soft and slightly sweet texture was pleasing.

However, it was no wonder that in the days that she was here, she felt that the staple food was very mixed and there wasn’t any uniformity. There were rice, wheat, sorghum, and corn bean noodles. It turned out that this place was mountainous and food cultivation wasn’t ideal. There were also docks in Yuan City, so food transported from all directions was convenient and sufficient. Therefore, the food that the people here ate was very mixed.

“How’s the situation at the stall?” Ye Lulu asked Guan Chibei.

“There are many people setting up stalls at the docks to do business. Sixty percent of the people live in the city while thirty percent are farmers. There aren’t many villagers from the mountains. Most of the things sold are food, and most of the people in the city sell it. Farmers sell more miscellaneous goods such as straw shoes and baskets. There are also many merchants who come and go. Most of them only stay within the day. Some stay for a few days, and very few stay for a month.”

Guan Chibei’s expression was calm as he spoke.

Ye Lulu revealed an expression of approval when she heard that. It was very detailed! She knew everything that she wanted to know.

“Then what are the food items usually sold in the city?” Ye Lulu asked.

“When I was at the docks, I saw a lot of food such as soup noodles, steamed buns, and rice. Some of them were accompanied by vegetables. They were sold in portions. That business was the best. The local merchants also bought some. Even the boatmen who stopped the ships would come down to buy a portion. Oh, right. Many stalls that sell braised food were also bustling with activity. Most of the people who buy them are crew members who have been on the ship for many days. There are also people who specialize in selling dry rations such as white flour pancakes.”

Guan Chibei stood there. This scene was too strange. He looked like he was being punished. Hence, he pulled a chair and sat down. It happened that the babies had woken up. The second son, who was the most active, looked at Guan Chibei and started to wave his little hands and legs.

He looked like he wanted to move.

Guan Chibei’s expression was calm. He stretched out his long arm and picked up his second son.

Ye Lulu was surprised that Guan Chibei would carry a child. He had fulfilled his duty to provide for his wife and children recently, but he did not seem to be too close to the children. She thought that he had that kind of ancient chauvinism.

She did not expect Guan Chibei to carry the child in the correct manner. Moreover, he held the child in his arms and looked down.

The second son opened his innocent eyes and stayed in his father’s embrace for a while. Suddenly, he relaxed.

Oh ~

The second son was overjoyed as he paddled his arms and legs. He felt relaxed! There was no more burden on him!

Guan Chibei’s expression froze. He looked down and saw that his rough clothes were quickly dyed a dark color. At the same time, they were wet.

Ye Lulu saw this and laughed.

Her second son peed!
