The casual life of the flat space

"Let's go, uncle. Look at me. I've lost another pound!" Bai Tieying didn't respond. She put on the backpack and half-supported and half-helped her uncle out. She only had two days in total. This would delay her for at least half a day, right?

After leaving the room, I took my uncle and ran straight through the yard to the shop in front, but my uncle suddenly stopped...

"Have you been here?"

"I haven't been here before! The last time I came to the county town was when I was five years old!"

"How come you are so familiar with my yard if you have never been here?"

"Ah? Oh, don't all houses look like that? At that time, my mother took me to the grocery store and the grain store to buy things, and I went to play in other people's yards. The first time, my mother thought I was lost. After she found me, she cried and wiped tears. But the second time, she slapped me twice."

Bai Tieying realized that she had seen the space model so she knew the structure and had forgotten that it was her first time here. But she was not lying about sneaking into someone else's shop. In her original body's memory, it was the first time her mother beat her.

"Haha, didn't you say that when your family got beaten up, they went to Tiexiong?"

"Wasn't he still a tadpole at that time?"

"What is it?"

"Oh, it's nothing, let's go! Uncle, please don't be stingy! I'm so hungry now."

Uncle asked Dafu to watch the door, and he led Bai Tieying to the southwest. Bai Tieying didn't show it on her face, but her legs were actually shaking. Because she found that as more and more space models appeared, her body seemed to be sucked by a monster, and she felt very empty.

"Uncle, is this place to eat so far? How about we just find a random place to eat? I feel like I can't walk anymore."

Bai Tieying felt that she could not hold on any longer, just like when her cell phone had only 1% of battery left, it was at risk of shutting down at any time. In order not to faint and cause trouble to her uncle again, she generously decided not to have a big meal!

"Okay, let's go to this wonton shop. It's from Huayue Prefecture, and the flavor is different from that in the north. Do you want to try it and see if you like it?"

The uncle turned his head and saw that Bai Tieying looked unhappy. He knew that the child was not being polite to him, so he quickly took her to sit down at a roadside stall.

"Boss, give me two bowls of wontons with less soup and more dried shrimps!" the uncle said to the boss.

"Okay, please wait a moment. Two bowls of wontons with less soup and more dried shrimps..." The boss called out in a leisurely voice, and his way of speaking was indeed different from that in the north.

After a while, two bowls of steaming wontons were served, with chopped green onions and coriander floating on top, and two drops of sesame oil dripping on them. Bai Tieying was really hungry, so he moved one bowl to his uncle, took the other bowl and started eating.

My uncle first mixed the seasoning and wontons with a spoon, and then ate them slowly, taking a sip of soup and a mouthful of wontons.

Bai Tieying finished the bowl of wontons quickly, but still felt hungry, so she asked her uncle if she could have another bowl.

"What's wrong with that, boss? Another bowl please."

"Okay, a bowl of wontons with less soup and more shrimp skin"...

But what Uncle didn't expect was that Bai Tieying had finished her second bowl when he had only eaten half a bowl. Seeing her hesitant look, Uncle reached out to feel her pulse and asked the boss for another bowl.

"Uncle, I don't eat much normally." Bai Tieying explained a little embarrassedly.

Although wontons are not expensive, eating one bowl after another is ridiculous. But she is really hungry now. The two bowls she has already eaten seem to be just a formality in her mouth and are empty before they reach her stomach.

Uncle glared at her and said, "Can eating wontons make me go bankrupt? If you hadn't said you were hungry, I would have taken you to a restaurant to eat!"

Bai Tieying smiled awkwardly and repeatedly praised his uncle for his generosity. When the third bowl of wontons arrived, he started eating quickly.

After Uncle finished his bowl of wontons, Bai Tieying also finished her fourth bowl of wontons. She patted her stomach which was finally full, and felt a little worried.

"What should I do? Is that space model going to consume my nutrients? No, I'm so poor... No, I have to sell the ginseng quickly, otherwise I won't be able to walk to the north of the city!"

Just when I was thinking of asking my uncle to find a familiar herbal medicine shop to sell the ginseng, I saw Dafu running over, panting, carrying a medicine box on his back.

"Master, the commander has sent someone to look for you. I'm here to see you. Bring your medicine box!" Dafu explained the purpose of his visit breathlessly. Bai Tieying was so happy that she was about to go crazy. This was really like finding a pillow when she was sleepy! She turned her head to look at her uncle, and her uncle nodded at her. The three of them said nothing and went straight to the military headquarters of the Northern Route Army.

The Northern Army Headquarters was near the north gate of the city, and the three of them walked along the central axis through the entire county to get there.

Bai Tieying breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this was the place she had passed by on the way here. Otherwise, she was afraid that she would get dizzy and delay things. She turned to Dafu and said, "Uncle Dafu, you can go back and just give me the medicine box."

"What can I do for you? Do you know how to treat illnesses? Besides, who are you calling uncle? I don't know you well, and you haven't paid the master for the medicine yet!"

Bai Tieying didn't say much to him and turned to look at his uncle.

"She is my brother's granddaughter, so she has to call you uncle. Give her the medicine box and go back!"

Dafu scratched his head, not understanding how two people who didn't know each other in the morning became relatives in the afternoon. "She calls me uncle, so what should I call her?"

"You idiot, if I tell you to leave, just leave now. If anything is lost in the clinic, you'll be held responsible!"

"Then why did you two ask me to come here? I just went back on my way!" Dafu seemed to realize what was going on.

"Haha, thank you Uncle Dafu for helping me carry the medicine box!" Bai Tieying said as she took the medicine box and put it on the ground, then took off her backpack and reached to the bottom to dig.

It seemed like he used some effort, but in fact he took out a Ganoderma lucidum that was nearly one foot long from the space, then wrapped it with the cloth on the backpack and handed it to his uncle.

The uncle took it carefully, lifted the corner of the cloth to take a look, then quickly wrapped it up and said, "Your piece is not a hundred years old, maybe about forty or fifty years!"

"Oh, then it must be more than twice as big as this, at least a hundred years?"

"what?"

"I didn't say I only have one Ganoderma lucidum!" Bai Tieying said and winked at his uncle.

"Nonsense!" The uncle was so angry that his beard twitched as he spoke.

"Think carefully about how you got the Ganoderma. This one can be said to be a favor brought by the Gyrfalcon to you. It's twice as big as this one, and there's still some left. Can you imagine how heavy it is?"

Bai Tieying thought to herself, this lie was not told well, she was careless! But she didn't say anything more, she quickly put on the medicine box, signaled Uncle Dafu to take her backpack back, trotted a few steps to catch up with the uncle, and after reporting at the door, they were taken in together.

As they walked through the courtyards, Uncle kept his head down, following the footsteps of the soldiers in front of him. However, Bai Tieying looked around, matching the scenes in front of him with the models in the space one by one.
