Chapter 231 - 223: Small Spring Eye
After finishing with the snails, Han Qiwu felt a bit thirsty too and took a few sips from his water bottle.
Seeing this, Tang Qingying pulled out her own bottle, lightly clinked it against his, and cheerfully said, "Cheers!"
Watching her casual movements, Han Qiwu couldn’t help but recall the time she sneakily took half a glass of wine from Tang Jing.
"Looks like next time I treat Mr. Tang to a meal, I’ll have to bring some wine," Han Qiwu thought to himself, wondering if Egger’s shop was still open. Where had that old man wandered off to this time?
Next time he ran into him, Han Qiwu planned to figure out a way to keep him nearby.
Aunt Hong Mei, watching the two drink water, slapped her forehead and exclaimed, "Oh dear, oh dear, getting old really messes with your memory! I almost forgot there’s a spring nearby. Come on, let me take you there—the water’s so sweet and delicious!"
"There’s a spring around here?" Tang Qingying perked up immediately. "When I was little, my grandpa always took me to Old Niu Mountain to play. The spring water there was so good, but it dried up later on, and I never got to drink it again."
Aunt Hong Mei chuckled. "I’ve drunk from the spring at Old Niu Mountain too. The taste is pretty similar to this one."
Han Qiwu was intrigued. At home, he drank only boiled tap water. He had always wanted to dig a well, but between not having the time and worrying that the water might not taste good, he had never gotten around to it.
If the water here tasted good, he figured he could just have Little Prince bring some back in a big bucket every day.
It wasn’t like a few bottles of honey would break the bank.
