Chapter 356: Street Dining, No Urgency
Looking at Peng Lu's back as he walked out, after a while, Lu Jie'en sighed deeply.
He filled the glass, drank the wine in one gulp, put the small jar of wine aside, and packed the braised snacks on the table one by one and piled them on the table.
After doing all this, Lu Jie'en stood up with his hands on the table.
As Lu Jie'en was drunk, his body swayed involuntarily as he stood up.
Lu Jie'en held onto the table, steadied himself, and then walked out of the house step by step and returned to his own room next door.
After closing the door, Lu Jie'en walked to the bed and fell on it with his clothes on.
I closed my eyes, and two tears slid down the corners of my eyes and flowed onto the pillow...
"Old Marquis...Old Marquis...Xiao Lu is sorry for you!"
Peng Lu left the mansion and walked along the road in front of the mansion to the street.
Peng Lu stood there for a long time, watching the hustle and bustle of people coming and going on the street.
He looked at the passers-by, and the expressions on everyone's faces...
Some are very relaxing and pleasant;
Some of them seem to have sad faces;
Some of them are obviously young couples affectionate, leaning on each other, happy and loving;
Some are weather-beaten old men, hunched over, walking alone with a blank look on their faces. I don’t know if they are going home or are homeless…
Peng Lu thought that every person in this world has different joys, sorrows, anger and happiness at every moment.
But I don’t know when and at that moment, it will happen to whom!
Standing at the street corner, watching the people coming and going, I wondered whether they were enjoying themselves or in hardship.
Maybe in some unknown corner, there is someone who is also watching like me...
The self he sees is also one of the people he sees in the world.
And what can he tell from his current expression?
Thinking of this, Peng Lu smiled self-deprecatingly, shook his head, and walked onto the street.
The shops on the street still have their doors open, soliciting business.
Some small vendors on the street were also actively hawking their wares.
Some people selling food, such as steamed buns, wontons, pancakes, porridge... are doing good business.
From afar, waves of heat and fragrance wafted over, arousing my appetite just by smelling them.
Looking at the steamer and the big pot emitting steam and fragrance, Peng Lu felt hungry.
I didn’t even have dinner!
I had been planning on having a meal and a drink with Steward Lu, but was interrupted by the Marquis.
I was sent out by the Marquis while I was still hungry. This mission was destined to be in vain!
Thinking of this, Peng Lu walked directly to a wonton stand, found an empty seat and sat down, "Boss, give me a bowl of wontons, with some soup!"
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment, it will be ready!" the boss greeted warmly.
Next to the wonton stall is a stall selling xiaolongbao.
Peng Lu turned around and called out, "Boss, give me two baskets of meat buns!"
"Hey, here they come!" The boss responded happily, and he opened the lid of the steamer swiftly, brought two baskets of buns over, and placed them in front of Peng Lu, "Sir, enjoy your meal!"
"Thank you!" Peng Lu said, took out two chopsticks from the chopstick cage, picked up a bun and put it into his mouth.
The buns tasted good.
After a while, the wontons were cooked.
The wontons are plump and full of meat filling. There are a few green vegetable leaves floating in the soup and a few drops of sesame oil. It smells good.
Peng Lu was not in a hurry. He ate the wontons with the meat buns slowly.
After eating and drinking his fill, Peng Lu stood up and paid for the buns and wontons.
"Thank you very much! Sir, please take care and come again!" The owners of the two stalls thanked him repeatedly.
Peng Lu waved and turned to leave.
Just take a walk!
He didn't even call for a carriage from the palace, let alone spend money to rent one. Peng Lu just walked leisurely towards Prince Yu's palace.
Prince Yu’s Palace.
His Royal Highness Prince Yu was not at home these days, so the butler Lu Ming did not dare to slack off at all.
I just finished inspecting the entire garden from the front yard to the back garden and then returned to my room to rest.
The waiter Anqing brought dinner and placed it on the table.
Lu Ming took out a small jar of wine from the cabinet, took out a wine glass, sat down and drank by himself.
Lingbo and Tayun came back from outside one after the other.
The two of them were staring at the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion. They had been busy all day in the capital city, stirring up trouble and watching the fun.
They came back this time, one carrying a big oil-paper bag and the other carrying a few small oil-paper bags.
When the two met each other, they looked at the oil paper bags in their hands and were both happy.
He instructed the servant An Ping to deliver dinner for both of them to Butler Lu, and then they went to Lu Ming's room together.
Ling Bo and Ta Yun came to Lu Ming's place and knocked on the door twice symbolically. As they knocked, the door was pushed open.
Lu Ming looked up and saw that it was these two people. He smiled and pointed at them and said, "You two guys, knocking on the door is the same as not knocking at all!
Everyone has come in, but the knock on the door hasn't even stopped yet!"
