Chapter 689: Where Did the Pears Go?

Walking on the streets of Wushuang City, although there are few players in Wushuang City, there are not many aborigines at all, from outside the city a pair of caravans into Wushuang City, the streets are constantly pedestrians, the shouts of hawkers, the sound of horses' hooves and the conversation of pedestrians passing by, making Wushuang City full of life.

Passing by a street stall, Richard was suddenly attracted by a food item sold at the stall and stopped. I saw a large oil pot on the side of the stall, and there were golden things like egg rolls in the oil pot, and a sweet smell wafted out of the oil pot.

Seeing the stall owner skillfully using a pair of long chopsticks to pick out the "egg rolls", Richard couldn't help but ask: "Excuse me, what is this?" ”

The stall owner glanced at Richard and said with a smile: "It's the first time for a guest to come to our Wushuang City, this is a bean paste roll, a unique food in our Wushuang City." My bean paste rolls here are different from other places, the outside is wrapped in this layer and eggs are added inside, which is more crispy, do you want to come and try a few? ”

Richard nodded, the stall owner picked up a bean paste roll and handed it to him, after taking it, Richard took a bite, the skin is a bit like an egg roll, the bean paste in it is not too hot because of the frying time and not long ago, the crispy skin and soft and glutinous bean paste are mixed together with a unique flavor.

When you leave Wushuang City, you can bring a few back to Jiaxiang. Richard immediately remembered Jiaxiang, that Nizi loves sweets the most, and she must like this bean paste roll.

Seeing that Richard ate with relish, Dugu Jian smiled, turned his head to the stall owner and said, "Wrap me twenty, it should be hot." ”

"Gotcha." The stall owner answered, and slashed several bean paste rolls made on the board into the oil pot along the edge of the oil pot, only to hear a sizzling sound, and the oil pot suddenly began to boil.

Richard glanced at Dugu Jian in surprise, "Senior Dugu, are you so sweet?" ”

Dugu Jian shook his head and said with a smile: "This is not for me to eat, you will know later." ”

After wrapping twenty bean paste rolls, Dugu Jian took the silver and took Richard to continue walking, walking through a few bustling streets, the two turned into a remote alley, and came to the small courtyard at the end of the alley.

Pushing open the courtyard gate and walking in, I saw more than a dozen children chasing and playing in the small courtyard, and several boys ran to the gate of the courtyard and bumped into Dugu Jian, and when they looked up, they shouted in surprise: "Grandpa!" ”

Grandfather?!

Richard was taken aback by the boys' name for Dugu Jian, choked on saliva and coughed, and looked at Dugu Jian's eyes also changed, he originally thought that Dugu Jian had no queen, but he never expected that the grandchildren in this courtyard would add up to form two teams of gourd babies.

Dugu Jian glanced at Richard and understood what he was thinking from his eyes, and said angrily: "Don't get me wrong, you kid, these are not my own grandchildren." ”

Richard was stunned for a moment, puzzled: "Then who are?" ”

Dugu Jian explained: "These are the children of nearby people, this yard is originally an old woman's, the parents of these children are running around for a living on weekdays, she helps take care of them during the day, I also heard someone mention it by chance to know about it." When the old woman passed away half a year ago, I instructed the city lord's mansion to send a private school gentleman pretending to be her son to teach them to read and write every day, and I would sometimes come to see them. ”

"I see." Richard nodded and said with a smile: "I didn't expect my predecessors to have such a humane side." ”

Dugu Jian said angrily: "What is this called, I am originally a person, inhumane, am I still the same as those beasts with scales and armor?" ”

"Senior Mingjian, I definitely didn't mean that." Richard smiled and shook his head repeatedly, in the hearts of the world, the Dugu Sword Saint of Wushuang City is high, when he is an existence that is not close to people, just like the gods in the sky, who would have thought that he would care so much about these more than ten children at the lowest end of Wushuang City.

Dugu Jian glared at Richard and stopped pestering, walked to the middle of the courtyard and said with a smile: "Your husband has something to do today, ask me to test your homework for him, if you answer well, I will invite you to eat this." ”

As he spoke, Dugu Jian took out a steaming bean paste roll from his back, and the sweet smell of the bean paste roll wafted into every child's nose, and all the children sniffed greedily and secretly swallowed their saliva.

An impatient boy asked Dugu Jian, "Grandpa, what are you going to test?" ”

"Today's test is arithmetic, a total of three questions, and the answer to this bean paste roll is yours. Listen, this question is, there are three people, each with two pears, how many pears are there? ”

"Six!" All the children spoke in unison.

Dugu Jian smiled and said: "Very good, second question, one of these three people left, how many people are left, how many pears are there?" ”

The children pondered for a while with their fingers, and then they all raised their heads and said, "There are two left, and there are four pears." ”

"Not bad, not bad. Finally, if you take three pears and add them to them, how many pears are there? ”

Looking at Dugu Jian and his soft words, Richard couldn't help but have a smile on his face, Dugu Jian at this time really looked like those old teachers who have worked in teaching positions for decades in reality and are good at seducing students in the classroom.

"Seven!"

"Four!"

The children replied one after another, and among the seven answers, a different answer seemed extremely abrupt, and Richard subconsciously glanced at the child who said four, and saw that it was a little chubby, about four or five years old, with thick and white arms like a lotus root.

Dugu Jian hurriedly said towards Little Fat Dun: "Little Fatty, how can it be four?" The previous two people each have two pears in their hands, and you have another one in your hand, and you can count how many they add up to in total. ”

Fatty thought for a while and snapped his fingers for a while, then raised his head and said to himself: "Four! ”

"No, you listen to me carefully, those two already have two pears in each hand, how many does this add up?"

"Four."

"That's right, then how many do you take it again?"

"Four."

Dugu Jian was about to collapse, "What about the pears in your hand?" ”

Chubby said with a natural face: "I ate it." ”

A little girl pointed at Xiaopang at this time and said, "Grandpa, no matter what you eat, as long as it is eaten in Xiaopang's hands, it will definitely be eaten by him immediately." ”

"Eaten by you..."Dugu Jian laughed angrily, looked at Xiaopang and said with a crying face: "Then can't you stop eating first?" Let's forget about this question first. ”

Little Chubby shook his head and said seriously; "No, grandpa, my mother said that the food in her hand had to be eaten quickly, otherwise it would be snatched away."

Dugu Jianxin was so speechless that he was completely out of control, and helplessly patted the little fat head and said, "Okay, your mother is right." ”

Richard on the side couldn't hold back and laughed: "Hahahahahahaha ”
