On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle

After watching Yun You walk into the examination room, Song Xile took his second brother away.

At this moment, the sky was slightly bright and most of the shops on the street were not open yet. Only a few roadside food stalls were open for business.

Since they had already had breakfast before going out, there was nothing to see at this time.

So Song Xile said to his second brother, "Second brother, let's go back first. We can come out again in the afternoon."

Song An nodded, and the two walked forward for a while, then saw Chang'an waiting at the corner of an alley.

The three of them drove the carriage back to their residence. Song Xile informed his second brother and went back to their room to rest first.

It was still early before the provincial examination ended, and Song Xile had nothing to do, so he took a travel book from the desk and started reading.

Song Xile had already gotten up early today, and as she watched, she felt sleepy. Since she had nothing to do, she simply took another nap.

She slept very soundly until Song Anxun came and woke her up.

Song An looked at his sister who was half asleep, shook his head and laughed, "Get up quickly, it's time for lunch. If you sleep until noon like this, I'm afraid you won't even know what time it is."

Song Xile sat up dazedly, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and asked in surprise: "I slept for so long?"

Song An poured a glass of water from the table and handed it to his sister. "Spring makes you sleepy and autumn makes you tired. This is the law of nature. Since you have nothing to do, it doesn't hurt to sleep a little longer. Come, drink some water to wake yourself up."

Song Xile took the cup of water and drank it all in one gulp. The cool liquid slid down her throat, making her feel comfortable.

She stood up, stretched her limbs, and felt a little more refreshed.

The two went to the front hall to eat together.

Chang'an had already been waiting at the door. When he saw the brother and sister coming, he smiled and said, "The food has been prepared for you two. You can enjoy it first. If you need anything, just call me or the cook."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Song Xile hurriedly said, "Today, there are only three of us, so there are no so many rules. Let's eat together!"

Song An nodded repeatedly, “Yes, yes, your master is not here, our family doesn’t have so many taboos!”

In Chang'an's eyes, the other person was a guest invited by the master, who was also the host, and he was a servant in the family, so it was not appropriate for him to eat at the same table with the master.

However, the two siblings of the Song family didn't care about these taboos at all. Song Ping pulled them to sit next to him.

Changan had no choice but to sit on half of the stool and have dinner with them.

Although there were only three of them eating today, the meal was very rich. There was not only meat, but also fish, and two stir-fried seasonal vegetables.

Seeing that the other party had prepared so much food, Song Xile suggested, "Now that your young master is not here, there is no need for the three of us to prepare so much food. I think one meat dish every day is enough."

"You two are the distinguished guests invited by the young master. How can you treat us so poorly..."

Song Xile interrupted, "Even though we have a close relationship, we don't need to care about so many empty formalities. If you continue to be so generous, we will feel uneasy if we continue to live here..."

Song An nodded repeatedly in agreement with his sister's words.

Chang'an felt a little upset when he saw the two people's attitudes.

The young master is now studying with Master Chen. He can see that the young master's mentality is much calmer than before. It is for this reason that he entertains them more wholeheartedly.

But if his hospitality made the other person feel burdened, that was not his intention.

Chang'an immediately understood and said that he had taken note of it and would do as Song Xile suggested next time.

Seeing that Chang'an looked a little uneasy, Song Xile changed the subject and asked Chang'an, "Where are the fun places in the city? Where are the delicious foods?" She planned to take her second brother out for a walk after the hottest time of the sun.

She has been in the city for so long, but she has not yet had a good look around the city.

Song Xile asked the right people all these questions, because most of them were asked when Qian Feng was in the provincial capital before he went to Yunshan Academy to study.

He also knew very well where the good things were near the city.

He thought for a moment and said, "If you like quietness, you can go to Cuiyun Mountain on the outskirts of the city. It is a good place to climb and see the distant view with beautiful scenery. There is also a peach blossom forest on the mountain. If you are lucky, you can see peach blossoms blooming all over the mountain."

"If you ask where the food is the best, then Zui Xiang Lou in the east of the city has the best barbecue and sweet and sour spare ribs. Many wealthy families in the city like them. There is also the rice cake shop in the south of the city. Their rice cakes are soft, glutinous, sweet, and have an excellent taste. They are the favorites of many rich girls."

"In addition to these, there are also inconspicuous small stalls on the streets of the city, selling fried cakes, tofu pudding, and fragrant meat patties."

"Although it doesn't sound unusual, it is the most popular among the people in the city."

"For example, the 'Lao Li Fried Skewers' in the north corner of the city. Their secret sauce is rich and mellow, and each skewer of ingredients is fried to perfection. It's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making you want to eat more." After saying this, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

"Also, there is 'Wang's Tofu Pudding' at Chengnan Bridge. Their tofu pudding has a delicate and tender texture, and paired with their own special syrup, it is sweet but not greasy, refreshing and delicious. Paired with a crispy fried dough stick, it is a perfect match."

Chang'an's eyes were shining as he spoke, and he didn't even realize that he was getting more and more excited the more he spoke. Song Xile saw full of joy in his eyes.

Song Xile immediately decided, "For breakfast tomorrow, let's go to the south of the city to try the tofu pudding."

"No need to bother. I'll tell the cook to buy the things back tomorrow morning."

Song Xile waved his hand, "Looking for delicious food, looking for delicious food, the fun lies in the word 'looking'. The food you buy will taste different from the food you have found before!"

Chang'an scratched his head. He didn't agree with what Song Xile said, but he no longer insisted on asking the cook to buy the food back.

After noon, Song Xile did not rush out, but went back to his room to rest for a while. When the sun was not so hot, he took his second brother out.

They turned out of Liu'er Hutong and walked onto the main street, walking aimlessly along the street lined with shops.

The streets in the afternoon were not as busy as those in the early morning, but there were still more people than when people in their county went to market.

Song An looked around curiously and couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's worthy of being a capital city. There are many shops and people. It's really prosperous!"

Song Xile also nodded in agreement, his eyes sweeping over the various shops on both sides of the street.

From the grain store to the inn, from the pharmacy to the cloth shop, going down the street, there is no end in sight.

Song An followed his sister for a stroll for a while and was about to go back.

Song Xile stopped in front of the Zheng family's medicine shop and said, "Let's go in first."

Song An didn't know what her sister was doing in the clinic, but she knew that her sister understood medical knowledge, so she didn't ask anything and followed her sister into the pharmacy.
