Splendid peasant girl busy farming

He took two stout northern men and asked for a table near the window in the restaurant lobby.

The food and drink hadn't been served yet, and several people were talking in low voices, as if they were deliberating over the menu in their hands.

"Xiaoyu, you go to the backyard to find Bamei first, I'll go over and say hello."

Yang Ruoqing said this to Xiao Yu, handed her the purchased New Year's goods, and walked towards the window over there.

"Uncle Yan!"

Yang Ruoqing walked over and stood by the table with a smile.

Yan Huaian was startled when he saw the little girl in front of him, and then remembered.

"I didn't expect to meet you here, girl. What a coincidence, sit down quickly."

Yan Huai'an pointed to the stool beside him and greeted with a smile.

Yang Ruoqing thanked him, then nodded to the other two men at the same table with a smile, and sat down beside him.

The two men also recognized the girl in front of them, she was the one who helped them out when they entered Wanghai County.

The two rough men also gave Yang Ruoqing a polite smile.

After Yang Ruoqing sat down, she looked back and landed on the menu in Yan Huai'an's hand.

"Old man, the dishes in this restaurant almost cover different dishes and tastes from the north, the south, the east, and the west."

"It's both sweet and bitter. If the old man has any questions, I can answer them for you." She said with a smile.

Yan Huai'an heard this, smiled and said: "It seems that the girl is a regular visitor here?"

Yang Ruoqing smiled without saying a word.

Not only are they regular customers, but I own this restaurant, right?

Yan Huaian then pointed to the names of several dishes on the menu and asked Yang Ruoqing: "The names of the dishes in this restaurant are very interesting."

"I've traveled all over the world for decades, and I've eaten in countless restaurants, but this is the first time I've seen a dish with ingredients that I can't guess."

"Girl, help me see, what kind of dish is this 'whispering'?" He asked curiously.

Yang Ruoqing walked over to have a look and smiled.

"It's pig's ear fried pig's heart, with the unique sharp pepper and fennel in our area, it's a very good appetizer." She said.

Yan Huaian suddenly understood.

"This name really fits the occasion, and the person who chose this name must have a clever heart!" He sighed.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded.

Qiqiao Linglong's heart, don't you just sit in front of you!
Under Yang Ruoqing's explanation, Yan Huai'an ordered six dishes in one go.

While waiting for the food to be served, Yan Huai'an drank tea and said to Yang Ruoqing: "If the old man remembers correctly, the girl seems to have said that she is from Changping Village, right?"

"Well, yes," she said.

Yan Huaian said: "Yesterday, this old man went to your village."

"Because I was in a hurry to do something serious, I just stopped at the Lizheng house in your village for a while and then left."

"It was afternoon at that time, so I didn't ask where the girl lived, and I didn't go to visit."

"I originally planned to enter the village in two days and visit the girl's house."

Yan Huaian said truthfully.

Yang Ruoqing listened with a smile, and felt that the old man spoke very honestly.

No rhetoric.

She said: "Old man, you are polite, you have come from a long way, and you are a guest."

"When will the old man go to our village again, remember to drink tea at my house."

"My family name is Yang, and I'm in the new courtyard on the side of the road into the village."

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's self-report, Yan Huai'an nodded with a smile.

"I saw that new courtyard when I entered the village yesterday. It's really nice," he said.

"Wait a minute...Girl, what did you say your last name was?"

"My surname is Yang!"

"My surname is Yang? Then, what kind of relationship do you have with the elder Yang and the younger Yang in your village?" Yan Huai'an asked again.

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled: "The big old Yangtou is my grandfather, and the little old Yangtou is a relative of our Yang family. He and my grandfather are cousins."

"I see!"

Yan Huai'an raised his hand to caress the gray beard on his chin.

Looking at Yang Ruoqing's gaze again, it was no longer the gratitude just now, but more cordial.

"Old Man Yan, may I ask if you recognize my master?"

Yang Ruoqing continued to ask.

Yesterday, when he entered the village, he was looking for several clan elders in the village, as well as old and small Yangtou.

At noon, Lao Yangtou and the others ate at Lizheng's house.

Among them, there must be something.

Hearing Yang Ruoqing's question, Yan Huai'an laughed heartily a few times.

"I don't know your grandfather and the others, but my child, I have a relationship with your old Yang family!"

"Oh?"

"It's a long story. If you want to hear it, I can tell you."

"Okay, the junior will listen attentively."

Yang Ruoqing quickly straightened her sitting posture and listened to Yan Huaian's talk about the past.

"This matter has to be said decades ago..."

"I am a citizen of Daliao. That year, there was a famine in our area, and many people starved to death."

"At that time, I was about your age. When I was a teenager, I followed the people from our village to flee to the Central Plains."

"After several bumps and bumps, I got separated from them, and I went to Qingshui Town alone, working as a beggar in the town."

"The twelfth lunar month of that year was almost the same as it is now."

"It's freezing cold, I'm dying of hunger on the side of the road, my whole body is covered with chilblains, and my feet are rotten from the cold..."

"Later, a young woman came. She saw me as pitiful, so she took me to a small hospital for treatment."

"She gave the doctor in the hospital a sum of money to help take care of me."

"She herself comes to town to see me every day and brings me food."

"That year, I spent time in the medical center. After the beginning of spring, all my illnesses were cured, and I was able to walk on the ground."

"I kowtowed to her and begged her to take me in, and I will be his cow and horse."

"She didn't, but gave me a token, telling me to go back to a town in the north of Daqi to find a rich family."

"She told me that she is not from this area, but also from the north."

"She said that she would stay here in the future, stay in Changping Village, live a good life, and never go back to the north again."

"She asked me to take the token to the place she said, and someone will take care of me."

"I really went, and with that token, I got a sum of money."

"Later, with that money, I started a small business."

"The heavens are merciful, my business is getting bigger and bigger. In a flash, more than ten years have passed."

"I remembered the girl who was kind to me back then, and I wanted to come back to her and repay her."

"At this time, the two countries are at war, and the frontier is blocked, so they cannot enter."

"But I still sent people to do everything possible to find out about her."

"I just found out that she died four or five years after I left, and it is said that she hanged herself."

"I was so sad, I dreamed of her for several nights, in the ice and snow, she saved me..."

"I haven't had time to repay this kindness before she left..."

When Yan Huai'an said this, the corners of his eyes were filled with tears.

When it comes to the events of that year, the past seems to be vivid.

Just at this time, the food and wine were served, and he picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a sip.

Looking out the window, it is the vicissitudes of time.
