Dali Temple Small Dining Room 2

Chapter 74 Rice Cake ([-])
The moment I stepped into the Jiaofang, my eyes suddenly opened up.

Surrounded by curved water, the pavilions and pavilions are well arranged, and the flowers and trees on the path are sparse and swaying in the wind.

Wen Mingtang followed the maidservant across the bluestone slab bridge, and all he could see was a calm lake, on which the lotus leaves were swaying, revealing flowery buds, everywhere.There is also a lotus boat in the middle, and dancers in dance skirts are practicing dancing on the boat.

This situation and the scene did have a unique elegance, Wen Mingtang couldn't help but look in the direction of the lake a few more times.

The maid leading the way turned her head and gave her a sideways glance: "What are you looking at? Why don't you hurry up?"

Wen Mingtang withdrew his gaze, and said calmly, "It's beautiful!"

"It's not something you can look at too much!" The maid looked at her and frowned again, urging, "Why don't you go?"

Wen Mingtang nodded and followed.

Naturally, the head of the Suyue Jiaofang does not have to live with the singers and dancers next to him, but has his own small building.

After entering the building, the maidservant leading the way breathed a sigh of relief visibly. It was luck that he didn't meet anyone along the way.

She turned to look at Wen Mingtang, and said, "Let's go! Miss Xiu is waiting for you on the road!"

Wen Mingtang let out an "oh", followed the maidservant upstairs, stepped into the room, and a voice rang out.

"How did you grow up like this?"

The voice merged with the one in the memory, but compared with the one in the memory, there was an indescribable sense of the world.

Wen Mingtang looked at her feet, the cinnabar red eighteen-pleated skirt was blooming on the carpet, bright and gorgeous, but no matter how gorgeous it was, it couldn't compare to the person wearing the skirt. She raised her eyelids and looked at Wen Mingtang at this moment come over.

Without the cover of the sun hat, the extremely colorful face appeared in sight.

Wen Mingtang looked at the irresistible beauty of the exaggerated hairpin peony, and sighed imperceptibly: It really grew into a blooming peony.

She was moved by Wen Xiutang's exuberant complexion, the "peony flower", oh no, it was Wen Xiutang but frowned, looked at Wen Mingtang, and repeated the words just now: "How did you grow up like this?"

Wen Mingtang was about to speak, but suddenly felt a gaze that could not be ignored looking at him. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that it was the fan fan standing beside Wen Xiutang, who was looking at Wen Mingtang unabashedly. Come on, when she noticed Wen Mingtang's gaze back, she didn't avoid it, and continued to look at him, then shook her head invisibly.

Wen Mingtang withdrew his gaze from the handmaid playing the fan, turned to Wen Xiutang in the middle, touched his face, and said, "I've always looked like this! Two eyes, one nose and one mouth."

Wen Xiutang: "..." The person you are talking about doesn't have two eyes, one nose and one mouth.

She was silent for a while, and she didn't say anything more about Wen Mingtang's "what he looks like", but a glimmer of happiness flashed in her eyes, and she turned to say: "If it wasn't for the sudden desire to eat Sushan that day, I'm afraid I wouldn't know you out of the palace."

Wen Mingtang thought of the look she gave her when she was surrounded by maidservants before going out, nodded and said: "It's also a coincidence, I always feel a little familiar, it seems to be sister. I just thought that sister was withdrawn from the brand, and she has already passed away." No……"

As soon as these words came out, Wen Xiutang frowned again, looked at Wen Mingtang who was dressed in a linen robe and seemed a little out of tune when speaking, and interrupted her words unceremoniously: "I'm very nice, there's nothing wrong with me."

Which good-looking person is happy to be said "people are gone"?

This sister of the clan was fairly well-behaved when she was a child, but she was released after staying in the court for a few years, and she was really like the group of incomprehensible low-level palace maids.

Wen Mingtang said "Oh", looked at Wen Xiutang, and asked with concern: "How did Sister leave the palace?"

"Good luck, the owner of Jiaofang passed by and chose me." Wen Xiutang said with a twinkle in his eyes.

These words are half true and half false, since she was a child, she was well-clothed and well-fed, how could she have suffered such hardships?After entering Ye Ting, the group of palace servants were jealous of her appearance, so they sent her to pour Ye Xiang, and then, that person passed by at that time and took her out of the palace.

Glancing down at the painted nails, Wen Xiutang looked at Wen Mingtang in front of him, and asked, "Where did you go after leaving the palace?"

Wen Mingtang said: "I work as a cook in the public kitchen of Dali Temple."

Wen Xiutang frowned again when she heard this, and said, "What's so good about being a cook? What's more, it's still in Dali Temple and other places. You come out and come to my place. If you really want to be a cook, it's better to solve the three meals for me alone." Already!"

The girl opposite heard the words, but pinched the hem of her clothes, with a reluctant expression on her face: "I... don't really think about it. There is food and shelter..."

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Wen Xiutang, who gave Wen Mingtang a sideways glance, and said, "Is it possible that I won't be able to live here without you?" Before Wen Mingtang could speak, she said, "When you go back, take this Resign, come to me!"

Wen Mingtang lowered his eyes when he heard the words, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Our Wen family ancestors said, if you have no choice, why do you choose to join the teaching workshop?"

Wen Xiutang's face darkened immediately after hearing a word, and she looked at Wen Mingtang with serious eyes: "What do you mean?"

Wen Mingtang shook his head, and said, "Sister has her own difficulties, I know. But I'm doing a good job as a public chef in Dali Temple, so I don't want to leave."

Wen Xiutang sneered with a sullen face, his eyes flickered, and said: "That's all! It's up to you!" He glanced at her and said, "Next time, if there is anything, I will send someone to find you. You first Let's go back!"

Wen Mingtang said "Oh", but didn't stay long, just said "I know that sister is fine, so I feel relieved!", and then followed the maid who led the way out the door.

Just after leaving the back door of Jiaofang, there was a loud sound of closing the door behind him.

Hearing a "bang" at the back, Wen Mingtang turned his head to look at the Suyue Jiaofang behind him, touched his nose, and walked forward.

Not long after Wen Mingtang left, an unexpected visitor came to Wen Xiutang's small building.

The visitor came in a Chinese robe with a golden crown and a fair complexion. He entered the door and said, "That old man Wen Xuance's daughter came to see you today?"

Wen Xiutang, who didn't even stand up to Wen Mingtang before, immediately stood up to greet the person who came up, stretched out his hand to take the cloak off his body, and said softly: "Come here before leaving."

The visitor said "Oh" and asked her, "How is life?"

His tone was slightly raised, and he seemed to be a little interested.Before the Wen family's accident happened, everyone thought that the Wen family's sisters would be well-known in the capital when they grow up.With Wen Xiutang's complexion, he had been curious about Wen Mingtang's appearance for a long time.

Wen Xiutang said: "I don't know how she is born like that now."

This... the visitor heard this, and turned his head to look at the fan-playing maid beside him: "Is she too long?"

The maid said: "Compared to ordinary people, she is pretty, but compared to Miss Xiu, she looks like a willow."

The phrase "Pu Liu's posture" immediately dispelled the visitor's interest, he sighed a little disappointed, then waved his hand, and said: "At first, I thought that if she had a good life like Xiutang, then I would send her away." Get it, and make another pair of sisters with Xiutang! If the old man Wen Xuance knows anything, he will die of anger again! Now that the growth is broken, I am not happy to wrong myself. Find someone and send her on the road! "
