Jiaohua

Chapter 791
The wind and snow were blowing away the broken hair on her forehead. Under the broken hair, her face was clear and beautiful, with a pair of moist and black eyes that seemed to be full of tears.

She opened her eyes slightly, staring blankly at Shen Lie.

Xia Zhaoyi recognized her, she was Chen Yongming's daughter who secretly went to find her father outside the city that day.

Regarding her name, Xia Zhaoyi had never tried to find out.Speaking of which, he wrote a letter to Bai Qingyuan at that time, mentioning this matter.

Following her slightly dazed gaze, Xia Zhaoyi looked sideways at Shen Lie as he walked, and bumped into his black eyes.

Xia Zhaoyi twitched his brows slightly, rolled his eyes slightly, and asked if he knew him.

Shen Lie shook his head slightly.

Xia Zhaoyi nodded.

During this process, Chen Yunqi, who realized that she had lost her composure, retracted her gaze and left at a faster speed.

But after walking more than 20 steps, she couldn't help but turn her head again, looking at the back of the man and woman.

They are all tall and straight people, the man is much taller than the girl, the clothes of the two of them, one black and the other plain, do not match, and they walk side by side, with a few steps between them, but even so, it can still be seen They have a great relationship.

friend?lover?loved ones?

The girl's hair was not in a bun, so she should not be a husband and wife.

Chen Yunqi frowned slightly, and looked away.

The heartbeat is still chaotic, like a little rabbit running around, the so-called glimpse, this dark night with the first snow, and the river bank with a strong wind, it is really amazing to see it suddenly, the heartbeat is so strong that you forget to breathe.It seems that the poems and essays I have read for a long time come true, like fireworks are in full bloom, like the bright moon and the other branches startle the magpie.

"Master, Miss Ali." A voice came from behind at this moment.

Chen Yunqi paused slightly, then turned around.

Passing by the Tai'an restaurant just now, someone mistook her and called her exactly the four characters "A Li girl". It turned out to be this woman, but the name sounded familiar.

Forget it, both of them are just passers-by.

·
Including Shen Lie, there were only five people in Youzhou this time.

Ji Xiahe, who wanted to join in the fun, and the remaining three were hidden guards, Di Jinsheng, Xu Li, and Wei Dongyou.

The figure that Kang Jian saw just now was Wei Dongyou, who had been waiting at the door for Xia Zhaoyi and Shen Lie to come back.

Xia Zhaoyi heard his voice and looked at him a few more times.

With bright eyes, Wei Dongyou pointed at himself, full of expectation.

"It's you." Xia Zhaoyi said.

"Let me just say, Miss Ali must still remember me!" Wei Dongyou said to Xu Li.

Xia Zhaoyi smiled, but his voice was sad: "I was in the capital back then, thank you very much."

"Back then in the capital..." Wei Dongyou raised his eyebrows and didn't continue.

He was one of Shen Lie's hidden guards who stayed in the capital back then. Later, the guards in Beijing rebelled, Zhu Xian died, and the capital was in chaos. They stayed by her side all the time, and Wei Dongyou carried Zhu Xian's body back. .

"Miss Ali, I haven't eaten for a day, come and eat something to warm up." Kang Jian said in the inn.

As soon as he made a sound, Xia Zhaoyi smelled the aroma of wine and meat, as well as the sweetness of pastries, and said with a smile, "I'm really hungry."

The middle of the hall was full of food, and the delicious dishes were still emitting white smoke. While talking, several more dishes were served. Xia Zhaoyi remembered well, and at a glance, he could tell that these people were not from Tai'an Restaurant.

She was wary of fraud and was about to speak, but she heard Ji Xiahe say: "A Li, what do you think it would be good to change the name of this Tai'an Building?"

"Change name?"

Ji Xia and Xiao Sa opened the folding fan in his hand, and fanned it coquettishly in the snowy winter: "Brother Du Xuan heard from Zhi Changle that Tai'an Restaurant has a unique river view, quite humanistic and poetic, thinking that Youzhou Congxin should have It’s a place to stay, so I’ll buy it.”

Xia Zhaoyi blinked and looked around the lobby. The layout has not changed, but there is a sense of emptiness behind the counter. The vases and wine jars with excellent quality that were originally used for decoration are gone.

"Where's the original shopkeeper?" Xia Zhaoyi asked subconsciously.

"This is out of our control..." Ji Xiahe said.

That's right, Xia Zhaoyi withdrew his gaze.

I just feel a little surprised, because Hong Zhuming has always claimed that this inn is important to him, and it is still a ancestral property, so he is willing to sell it.

As one can imagine, the price is definitely not cheap.

Everyone didn't eat, and they were waiting for them to come back to eat together.

After being seated, Xu Li came from the backyard holding a jug of warm wine, and the sweet fruity fragrance overflowed with his steps.

Seeing Xia Zhaoyi turn his eyes to look, Shen Lie said softly: "This is Tanzhou's Green Plum Sherry Wine."

"You brought them here." Xia Zhaoyi was pleased.

"It's more than that!" Ji Xiahe said, "If it weren't for the limited things we can bring, I think this Mr. Shen would wish to move all of Tanzhou to you."

Xia Zhaoyi looked at Ji Xiahe.

"...Don't listen to his nonsense." Shen Lie said.

Ji Xiahe frowned, and kicked the leg under the table towards Shen Lie lightly, but Shen Lie stepped on the back of his foot.

He was trampled on for helping him out of his kindness, Ji Xiahe immediately glared at him, but saw him turn sideways to pick up Xu Li's hip flask, he didn't feel ashamed at all for being sorry for him.

Pour Lingling sake into the cup, the aroma of the wine is refreshing.

Xia Zhaoyi is not a person who is good at drinking, so he dared not drink too much, so he took a sip and couldn't help but praise.

"This wine is not very intoxicating," Ji Xiahe said, "However, if the wine is not intoxicating, everyone gets drunk."

Xia Zhaoyi looked at him, looked down at the wine in the cup, and then looked at Shen Lie.

"He drank a lot of wine after he came," Shen Lie said lightly, "I don't know what he was thinking."

The voice was suddenly cold, as if there was something displeased, Xia Zhaoyi nodded, with a smile on his lips: "Then ignore him, let's drink ours."

When she smiled, he smiled too: "Yeah."

In addition to the wine, the bacon and fruit cakes on the table were all brought from Tanzhou, as well as the glutinous rice cakes made in different ways from Tanzhou, with the aroma after being dipped in brown sugar.

Ji Xiahe was sulking over there with his chopsticks, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, and suddenly he felt blessed and said, "A Li, brother Shen wants to be your matchmaker."

"Ahem!" Shen Lie almost choked.

Xia Zhaoyi: "Huh?"

"Master Ji, are you drunk!" Zhai Jinsheng shouted.

"It's not this brother Shen!" Ji Xiahe hurriedly said, "Yes, it's Shen Fan! Shen Fan, that brother Shen!"

Xia Zhaoyi was even more shocked: "Huh?"

Shen Lie almost broke the chopsticks, calmed down, Shen Lie said: "He really drank too much."

"Hmph!" Ji Xiahe snorted, "I think you only need a few drinks."

Di Jinsheng got up suddenly and grabbed Ji Xiahe's wrist: "Come here!"

Di Jinsheng was always very polite to Ji Xiahe, but this time he was suddenly rude, Ji Xiahe didn't react at all.

Watching them go to the backyard, Xia Zhaoyi didn't know what happened.

Shen Lie looked down at her, paused, and said in a deep voice, "Ali, my elder brother, he is not dead."

Xia Zhaoyi raised his eyes to meet his gaze.

The man's eyes are deep and focused.

"He wrote me some letters, but I couldn't understand them. He always likes to play tricks." Shen Lie said.

Recalling the eerie situation under His Highness Qianqiu, Xia Zhaoyi's mood became depressed and gloomy, but seeing Shen Lie also became depressed, Xia Zhaoyi smiled again, his clear and bright eyes were bright and black: "It's good that he didn't die. Yes, so you will have an older brother just like me."

　Thank you for your reward~~~
