Chapter 735 Am I a bit of a chapter procrastinator?
The little insect had a feeling that the human man in front of it was plotting something it couldn't detect, but for now, it could only choose to remain silent.
A new body must be made so that it can defend itself should anyone try to harm His Majesty!
"I was just joking," Ye Sanqing explained. "Making androids and making weapons are two different things. I have that much common sense."
“Yes, but we could also collaborate with the military on research… but that’s a matter for later; we need to be able to produce it first,” Sheng Hanyu agreed.
He refused to believe that the little insect wouldn't be tempted by a body capable of fighting.
"Alright, are we almost there?" Ye Sanqing looked out the window.
She was surprised to find that the main road leading into the town was somewhat crowded on both sides.
“It seems like it’s market day,” Sheng Hanyu followed her gaze. “The roads are a bit congested. I’ll go tell the driver to take a detour.”
"So you can set up a stall on the street like this?" Ye Sanqing's memories resurfaced. "Go ahead."
Although this was rare in her previous world, she only occasionally saw small vendors setting up stalls in the square during local festivals, but she had never seen them set up directly on the road.
“I’ve already said it,” Sheng Hanyu returned. “It’s a good idea. We can come and take a look around later.”
"Okay, then tell everyone that we're ready."
They had booked a campsite in advance on their way here; it was a large farmhouse.
There aren't any dedicated RV campsites here, but there are farmhouses. Actually, any open space would suffice, but they all felt that since they weren't camping out in the wild, they wanted to make things as convenient as possible.
Moreover, although they can cook for themselves, the drivers, bodyguards, and others who accompany them still need a place to eat and sleep, so this method is more convenient and less strenuous.
"Atai, go and make the arrangements..." After getting out of the car, Ye Sanqing said a few words to Atai, and then nodded to the boss who came to greet him.
The owner was a cheerful, middle-aged woman who looked very capable. "Welcome! Oh dear, so many of you? There might not be enough room. I'll go to the place next door and make some accommodations right away!"
“Sister, don’t worry,” Sheng Hanyu said, “We can stay in the car, there’s enough room here.”
"Okay! How many people are having dinner?" the boss asked immediately.
“Just those people,” Sheng Hanyu pointed, “about a dozen or so, thanks for your help, sister.”
"That young man has a sweet tongue! Oh my!" The shopkeeper exclaimed when he saw Sheng Luoxin getting out of the car. "Isn't this...?"
“Look, my dad has more fans than either of us,” Sheng Hanyu whispered to Ye Sanqing.
"Isn't this just common sense?" Ye Sanqing said with a smile.
"Hello, boss..." Sheng Luoxin looked a little sleepy, but seeing the boss's warm smile, he immediately switched into business mode. "You know me?"
"Of course I know you! How could I not know someone as famous as you!" The boss wiped his hands on the apron tied around his waist and warmly shook hands with Sheng Luoxin. "I really didn't know we had such a distinguished guest today, I didn't prepare anything in advance!"
"Ah, I've been on hiatus for so many years, and you still remember me." Sheng Luoxin smiled and shook her boss's hand. "I'm so happy. Shall we take a picture together later?"
"Okay! Oh, I can't disturb you, you should rest first! Once you've rested, we'll come back to take photos tonight when we have time!" the owner continued enthusiastically.
"Okay, then you can go ahead and get busy."
After confirming the dishes and portions they needed for dinner, the boss told them to make themselves at home and went back to the kitchen to get busy.
"Dad, when will I be as famous as you? People remember you wherever you go! That's the treatment of an award-winning actor!" Sheng Hanyu said, feigning envy.
"If I could, I'd rather you weren't as famous as me... The pressure must be too much." Sheng Luoxin knew he was joking and replied with a smile.
"I'm not afraid," Sheng Hanyu said. "We're planning to go to the market. Do you want to come along? Or should we rest first?"
"You guys go ahead, I think I'm a little tired from the long drive. I'll wait for you to come back for dinner," Sheng Luoxin replied.
"Then we'll head out first," Ye Sanqing said.
After making arrangements for the others, Atai followed.
"Well, Xiaoze and Xiaoyou can stay here and help the boss out..." Sheng Hanyu instructed. "I feel like they've never hosted so many people at once before, so help them out if you can."
"Ok."
“Let’s go,” Ye Sanqing glanced at Atai and said, “Your job for a while will be to help us carry things, is that alright?”
The reason for bringing Atai along is that he is the most suitable and can also act as a bodyguard, while taking care of people and helping in the kitchen are things he is not very good at.
“Yes,” Atai replied briefly.
“Atai’s Chinese seems to have improved a lot now,” Sheng Hanyu asked as they left the courtyard.
"I'm studying. I'm here." Atai was suddenly asked a question, and his poor Chinese became apparent again.
"Don't talk to him," Ye Sanqing said with a smile. "He'll forget everything he just learned in a moment if he gets nervous."
"It's my fault," Sheng Hanyu smiled. "Am I a bit of a chatterbox?"
"It's alright, at least I don't feel upset," Ye Sanqing said. "Where's your mask?"
"Oh, here it is." Sheng Hanyu took out the mask he always kept ready and handed it to the two of them.
“Actually, I originally thought I wouldn’t need to wear it in this town,” Ye Sanqing said as he put it on, “but since some people might recognize me, it’s better to wear it. It wouldn’t be good if there was any disturbance.”
"It's alright. Look, there are mostly middle-aged and elderly people here, so it's fine. They probably only recognize my dad. But it's dusty now, so it's better to wear it."
"Okay." Ye Sanqing nodded.
They were wearing sportswear, so they weren't particularly noticeable, but there were very few young people here, so it had absolutely no effect.
Ye Sanqing didn't care. After all, people probably only glanced at them because there were young people, and then they would recognize them as tourists and stop paying attention.
“This is special, what is it?” Ye Sanqing asked, pointing to the handicrafts at the stall next to him.
“These are embroidered insoles, and children’s clothes and such,” Sheng Hanyu explained. “This is a straw-woven handicraft…”
"These insoles are so beautiful, let's buy some." Ye Sanqing squatted down and began to select some.
Sheng Hanyu thought to herself, she didn't think these things were tacky at all. But putting aside the "flowers blooming and wealth" pattern, the embroidery was actually quite good.
The stall owner was an elderly woman who, upon seeing someone approach, immediately introduced the shoes enthusiastically, "Young lady, these insoles are very breathable! They won't make your feet sweat! I embroidered them myself!"
"They look really nice. How much are they?"
"Six yuan a pair, ten yuan for two pairs."
Ye Sanqing was shocked!
