Chapter 124 Flying Sesame Ball
"Of course something's wrong, otherwise why would I take your picture!" Lin Chunyi turned around and saw a very familiar person smiling at her inexplicably.
"...Brother Zhengyong, don't laugh like that, it's kind of scary. After all, it's winter now, and the peach blossoms aren't blooming." The person who knocked her sesame ball away was none other than Lin Zhengyong.
"Pfft..."
"And who is this?" Lin Chunyi then noticed that a girl next to Lin Zhengyong couldn't help but cover her face with her sleeve and let out a soft laugh.
No wonder Zhengyong was smiling so brightly...
She was about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a single braid on one side, wearing a pink long dress, and her fair face exuded gentleness and grace.
The girl blushed slightly and said softly, "Hello, sisters. My surname is Ning, and my given name is Linlan. My brother is... is..."
"This is your second sister-in-law," Lin Zhengyong blurted out, grinning without the slightest hint of embarrassment.
Ning Linlan neither refuted nor nodded, but lowered her head, her face turning even redder.
Lin Lanshan leaned closer and said speechlessly, "Zhengyong, aren't you ashamed?"
If Aunt Zhang knew how tactless you were talking outside, she'd definitely grab your ear and spin you around a few times!
She smiled and said to Ning Linlan, "Sister Ning, I am Lin Lanshan. I am this silly brother's sister. You can just call me Lanshan."
Lin Chunyi added, "Hello, Sister Ning. I'm this silly brother's sister, Lin Chunyi. You can just call me Xiaoyi."
"Xiaoyi, Lanshan." She looked up and called out to them, smiling gently.
Lin Zhengyong stood alone on the side, seemingly ignored by his fiancée and sisters.
He interjected, "I saw your mule cart from afar and it looked familiar. It really is. Why did you come into town today? Why didn't you come in and sit down at my house first?"
Lin Lanshan took a bite of the golden sesame dumpling inside the leaf.
"I caught a few small game animals yesterday and quickly brought them to the county town to sell. I just happened to pass by here and bought some sesame balls to eat."
She then said, "This is delicious! It's soft and chewy, and has sweet red bean paste inside. Sister Ning, please have some." Then she handed her another one.
Ning Linlan declined softly, "Thank you, Lanshan. It's our first meeting, how can I accept food from my younger sister? It should be me, the older sister, treating you."
It's almost lunchtime. If you don't mind, why don't you join us for lunch at a restaurant?
"Why didn't you treat me to a sesame ball? I haven't had one yet," Lin Zhengyong muttered to himself.
Hearing this made Lin Chunyi even angrier! She bit off half of the only sesame ball, raised an eyebrow, and said:
"Brother Zhengyong has even seen flying sesame balls, yet he eats the sesame balls that ordinary people like us eat?"
?
"What flying sesame balls? When did he ever see that before?" Lin Zhengyong looked completely bewildered.
Ning Linlan looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Only Lin Lanshan thought of that. She was overjoyed, turning to the side and pointing to the ground not far away.
"That's it! I saw it with my own eyes." Zhengyong patted his sister's shoulder...
The sesame ball flew from her hand, bounced once on the ground, and then left her, hahahaha.
The round, plump ball of sesame seeds was in front of me, having been stepped on countless times. It had been flattened and crushed.
It was snatched away by a stray dog and disappeared without a trace.
Ning Linlan listened to her two younger sisters' words and then saw the stray dog carry away Tuanzi.
Even her most refined demeanor couldn't be maintained. She made a final attempt to cover herself, bending slightly to cover her mouth, laughing until tears streamed down her face.
Lin Zhengyong now understood why Xiao Yi had been squinting at him, looking like she wanted to make a move.
He scratched the back of his head and said ingratiatingly, "Xiaoyi, it was my fault. I'll make you two. Just don't go back and tell Mom and Dad, okay? Hehe."
That's just how he is—careless and reckless. His parents have scolded him countless times; if they scold him again, they'll definitely hit him.
Lin Chunyi was speechless.
It's not just about the sesame ball; you were just lucky to get patted on the right shoulder.
If the photo shows the injury on the left side, then who knows how many people you've kicked today.
Although they'll probably get a lecture from Uncle Lin and Aunt Zhang when the time comes...
"Brother Zhengyong, what's the value of two sesame balls?" She rolled her eyes. "If you're going to compensate, it should be with a big meal! Otherwise, how can you have the nerve to ask Sister Ning to pay for your sister's meal?"
Money is worthless; we can earn more after we've spent it.
Lin Zhengyong patted his chest and said, "How could I let Lin Lan pay? My money is her money, so if I treat her, she's treating!"
"Come on, I'll treat you to Shiweilou Restaurant. I'll make sure you eat your fill!" The money bag in his arms was still warm.
The two sisters were genuinely surprised. They had simply planned to go to any restaurant and order a few dishes.
I never expected that Brother Zhengyong would suggest going to Shiweilou to eat...
The biggest restaurant in the county town isn't cheap. For four people, it would cost at least a tael of silver, which isn't something you can just treat anyone to.
Besides, he's getting married, and his future wife is right here. What if Sister Ning gets upset about him spending so much money?
The two of them didn't know how to express it tactfully.
Ning Linlan hesitated. The food at Shiweilou was so expensive; where would Lin Zhengyong get so much money?
Then I thought, this is the first time I'm meeting my two younger sisters, I can't go to a bad place and make a bad impression...
Never mind, she'll quietly pay the money later.
Having made up her mind, she said to the two sisters, "This is how you treat your younger sister. Let's go." Then she took the initiative to step forward and tug at their sleeves.
Lin Zhengyong said lavishly, "I'm rich now! I can afford to treat you to a whole day's worth of food at Shiweilou, let alone just one meal. Come on, come on, there won't be any good seats if we go late."
The two suppressed their suspicions, deciding to order the cheapest option later. The four of them, in a mule cart, headed towards Shiweilou.
At the end of the Si hour (9-11 AM), they arrived at Shiweilou, the central location of Yuanfeng County.
It's quite normal to have an early lunch at this time of year, so there are quite a few people coming and going at the entrance.
The two sisters skillfully took three coins, called the waiter at the door, and came to take away their mule cart.
Then, following the carefree Lin Zhengyong and Ning Linlan, who had gained a new understanding of them, they entered the lobby.
"How many guests are there? Main hall or private room? What kind of dishes would you like to order?" An unfamiliar waiter bent down and asked Lin Zhengyong, who was leading the group.
It was his first time here, and the first time he had ever been treated this way. He said somewhat stiffly, "Find us a seat and bring us some of our signature dishes."
Several signature dishes! He's really daring. After eating this, he might not be able to eat again when he gets home…
The faces of the two sisters and Ning Linlan were now even more frozen than his.
I have to remind her now. Lin Chunyi racked her brains and said to Lin Zhengyong, "Brother Zhengyong, I'm a bit picky about food. I'll only order dishes I like after I've looked at the menu."
Then, smiling, he said to the waiter, "Hey buddy, find us a less crowded spot nearby. Let's look at the order first."
