After traveling through time, I married a male princess

Chapter 151 Why Do You Call Me Uncle?

Ye Yanxing doesn't like to be disturbed by others, but he likes to sit quietly and watch the bustling atmosphere of life.

The hawkers' cries, the buyers' bargaining, the shops full of people, and the children's laughter...

This bustling and lively scene always makes people feel at ease.

To be honest, the Bishui City is not as lively as the Fufeng City.

But each place has its own unique flavor.

This place is close to the sea, and the air feels wet and salty. Maybe it's not very obvious to most people, but for people with a keen sense of smell, the difference is huge.

For example, Ye Yanxing.

Downstairs on the street, there was an old lady with a little boy about three years old selling beautiful shells.

But people here have seen many of these shells, and very few come forward to ask about them. Most just take a glance and walk away.

Ye Yanxing sat here for almost an hour, but they didn't sell a single shell.

"Grandma, I'm so hungry." The little boy said in a low voice.

"Be good, baby. After we sell these shells we can buy some delicious food." Grandma comforted him softly.

"Yeah!" The little boy nodded. Although he was very hungry, he was very well behaved and didn't make any noise. "When I grow up, I will make lots and lots of money and buy lots and lots of delicious food for grandma!"

When the little boy said this, his eyes were full of determination. He firmly believed that he could do it.

"Okay, okay, the baby is the most sensible." Grandma's eyes were full of relief, and then sadness.

I guess she felt that she wouldn't live long enough to see the little boy grow up.

She stroked the little boy's head with her wrinkled hands and continued to sell her shells in a weathered voice.

Ye Yanxing could clearly hear the protests from their stomachs due to hunger.

"Grandma, if you give me the shells, I'll treat you to a meal, okay?"

The old lady looked up when she heard the voice and saw Ye Yanxing leaning on the windowsill.

"Sir, please don't tease me." The old lady gave him a bitter smile. These shells were worthless and not worthy of this young man treating them to a meal. It would be good if they could be exchanged for a few steamed buns.

After all, these shells are everywhere on the seashore, and she really couldn't do anything else, so she just picked them up and tried her luck.

"These shells are beautiful and I can use them," Ye Yanxing continued.

The old lady hesitated when she heard this.

She was afraid that this elegantly dressed young man was deceiving her. After all, there were too many naughty young men who liked to make fun of ordinary people like them.

But now that she finally had the chance to sell it, she wavered again.

Her grandchildren were hungry.

Finally, she decided to take a gamble. Whether it was good or bad, it was their fate, and she would accept whatever the result was.

"Okay, I'll take it to you, young master." The old lady nodded and glanced at the little boy.

"Well, send it to the first floor."

"Okay." They thought the shopkeeper wouldn't let them go to the second floor, and maybe not even the first floor. It would be best if the distinguished person could go downstairs to get it.

Ye Yanxing went downstairs and waited for them in an empty seat in the lobby on the first floor.

"Hey, hey, hey, you are not allowed to sell things here." The waiter stopped the grandmother and granddaughter who were about to enter the store.

"It was that young man who wanted it, and he asked us to deliver it." The old lady pointed at Ye Yanxing and explained to the waiter.

The waiter looked at Ye Yanxing and asked him to nod before letting him in.

The waiter wasn't looking down on people, but the shop had a rule that people were not allowed to come in to sell things. They were allowed to eat, and no matter how shabby their clothes were, as long as they could afford it, he was happy to receive them.

But he knew the grandmother and granddaughter, they often went around this area, if he rashly let them in, he would definitely be fined by the shopkeeper.

Now that he has a guest to back him up, he is no longer afraid. After all, the room for this distinguished guest was booked by the people from the county magistrate's office.

"Young Master." The old lady came over with the little boy and stood awkwardly.

She didn’t feel scared at first because of the distance, but now that they were face to face, the old lady felt the man’s oppression.

"Please sit down." Ye Yanxing said lightly.

"Hey," the old lady looked up. Was this young man going to invite them to dinner? Or did he have some other intention?

The little boy, on the other hand, happily sat in the empty seat, "Thank you, big brother!"

The innocence in the little boy's eyes was not erased by the hardships of life. He thanked Ye Yanxing with clear eyes.

Ye Yanxing smiled and said, "You're welcome. We are doing business."

"What is a transaction?"

"I buy your shells, and the price I pay is to treat you to a meal."

"Oh!" The little boy nodded as if he had suddenly realized something, and then sat down with peace of mind, "Then it's not like we're eating and drinking for free."

"You're quite smart."

"Hehe, my parents both praise me like this! So does my grandma!"

The old lady then sat down tremblingly, and then smiled apologetically at Ye Yanxing, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, young master."

Ye Yanxing did not answer, but called the waiter to take the order.

He didn't ask the two people opposite him what they wanted to eat, but ordered directly.

The dishes ordered include home-cooked dishes and signature dishes, most of which are suitable for the elderly and children.

"Young Master..." Seeing that he ordered so many things, the old lady became nervous again, as if she was afraid that Ye Yanxing would sell her out after she finished eating. People's hearts are really treacherous, and she couldn't help but think more about it.

“Just order these for now, and hurry up.” Ye Yanxing instructed the waiter.

"Okay!" The waiter ran to the kitchen to place the order.

"Thank you, big brother." The little boy blinked and looked at Ye Yanxing.

"no need thank me?"

The little boy shook his head. He didn't know how to express it. He only knew that if it weren't for Ye Yanxing, they probably wouldn't be able to get in here.

Ye Yanxing poured them each a cup of tea, "Drink tea first, the food will take a while."

"Thank you very much." The old lady took the tea bowl tremblingly and took a sip.

The little boy didn't need any care. When Ye Yanxing pushed the tea bowl in front of him, he picked it up and drank it.

The food wasn't served yet, but Ye Beiting arrived first.

He dozed off for a while and was awakened by the noise downstairs. Since he couldn't sleep, he simply gave up. Then he got up and knocked on Ye Yanxing's door, but there was no sound from the room. Thinking that Ye Yanxing was still sleeping, he went downstairs first.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I went downstairs, I saw Ye Yanxing sitting in the hall.

Ye Yanxing was actually eating secretly downstairs behind his back!

"My little nephew, why didn't you call me for dinner?" Ye Beiting automatically ignored the old lady and the little boy opposite Ye Yanxing.

"Uncle, sit down." Ye Yanxing pointed to the empty seat next to him without answering his question.

"Have you ordered the food? Actually, I'm not hungry yet, but I can eat a little more! By the way, nephew, didn't you eat enough tonight?" Ye Beiting sat down and started chattering non-stop.

"By the way, why do you call me uncle?" Ye Beiting poured himself some tea.

"No reason. I ordered a lot of dishes. Do you think there is anything you want to eat?" Ye Yanxing changed the subject.

"Oh, okay." Ye Beiting picked up the handwritten recipe and looked at it slowly.
