4. Ah Zhen
Ming Yijun didn't know what she was thinking, the mind reading technique was extremely draining, and now his vitality was greatly damaged, so naturally he couldn't use it often. Yesterday, I used mind-reading on her, just to pinch her and make her afraid. Seeing her in a daze, he coughed lightly and reminded:
"It's already time for breakfast. β
Zhan Lu was fierce and agreed. Thinking that Ming Yijun might already know what she was thinking, she couldn't help but be ashamed, and she didn't dare to look at him, so she ran out of the door.
Zhan Lu opened a wine shop, and never sold it early. Originally, she thought that she would leave after the handover today, and there were not many ingredients in the kitchen, so she thought that she would go to a nearby steamed bun shop to buy a few steamed buns.
The early shop was next to her wine shop, and as soon as she went out, the proprietress of the early shop greeted her with a smile:
"It's so early today, where is Miss Zhan Lu going?"
Zhan Lu walked over and smiled at her:
"I'm just here to bring you business. She pondered for a while, and then said, "Please bring me fifty buns." β
The proprietress was taken aback:
"Miss Zhanlu, on weekdays, you and Mrs. Azhen eat five or six buns at most, why do you suddenly want to buy fifty today?"
Zhan Lu couldn't explain it, so she had to be vague. Fortunately, the proprietress was happy to have business to do, and she didn't ask carefully, so she wrapped the bun and gave it to her.
Zhan Lu paid the money, and was about to go back with the bun, when he suddenly heard a smile from behind:
"Alu, why haven't you left yet?"
Zhan Lu looked back and saw that it was Ah Zhen's lady who had returned.
Speaking of which, even Zhan Lu doesn't know the details of this lady. Since the time when Zhan Lu can remember, Ah Zhen has lived in her house. Others call her Ah Zhen, she is considered a junior, so they call her a lady of Ah Zhen. This Ah Zhen is quite ignorant of affairs, and he always looks naΓ―ve when he talks and does things on weekdays, even Zhan Lu, a child. When she spoke, two of the three sentences mentioned her former master, and often said with an obsessive expression that her lord was the most beautiful man in the world, and seemed to have a deep attachment to that master.
Because of this, Zhan Lu felt that she was only afraid of being a maidservant in some big family in the past. Maybe her master's family was in trouble, so she was here alone.
When Zhan Lu was young, she felt that Ah Zhen's age was about the same as her mother's, but more than ten years have passed, and Ah Zhen's appearance is not old at all, and she is still in her twenties. Zhan Lu was used to seeing it, but she didn't think it was strange, as if Ah Zhen's lady should be like this.
This lady lives in her house, and often helps her do chores such as running the hall, but she often leaves without even saying hello, and only comes back after being missing for two or three days, so she can't help much.
If it weren't for Ming Yijun to relieve her siege today, she would have left at this time, and she would have regretted that she wouldn't be able to see the last side of Ah Zhen's lady, but this Ah Zhen lady didn't seem to take this seriously at all, but she still smiled and asked her why she hadn't left.
Zhan Lu was a little angry, so he refused to answer her. When the lady came closer, she saw that she had bought so many buns, she reached out to take them, and asked with a smile on her face:
"These are the ones you want to take to eat on the road, where can you eat so much, or I'll help you eat them!"
Zhan Lu slapped away Ah Zhen's hand and shook her head. Although she refused to tell the truth to the proprietress who sold steamed buns, she couldn't hide it from the lady. She lowered her voice and whispered to Mrs. Aji:
"Mrs. Zhen, you weren't there yesterday, but the store came...... A Lang Jun. That Langjun eats a lot of food, and he ate all the food I prepared yesterday in one meal, and this bun was bought for him. β
As soon as she heard this, she blew up her hair, rolled up her arms and sleeves, and was about to give him a good look:
"Where is this person? Where must it be the mountain spirit and water monster from! Dare to spread wild on the territory of the old lady! The old lady is not powerful, you treat me as a sick cat! My lord looks down on this kind of monster who eats white food the most, Ah Lu, you wait, see that I teach him a good lesson to be angry for you. β
Zhan Lu was afraid that Ah Zhen's lady would make a fuss and annoy the one inside, so she hurriedly stopped her:
"That Lang Jun...... Didn't eat white food. He also gave me money to keep the liquor store. β
When the lady heard her say this, her anger disappeared. But still, she said:
"That's not going to happen! This is my territory, this monster came here without my permission, and I have to teach him a lesson. But look at your face, just be gentle. β
Zhan Lu tried every means to persuade her, but she couldn't stop her. I had to follow Ah Zhen into the wine shop, thinking that it was better to act at the opportunity.
When the lady entered the wine shop, she saw the graceful white-clothed gentleman sitting at the table, and when he heard the voice, he didn't raise his eyes, but just asked:
"But bought breakfast?"
But it was said that Ah Zhen Niangzi was originally coming with great momentum, and when she entered the door and heard Ming Yijun's voice, she was stunned at the door.
Zhan Lu agreed repeatedly, and when she saw that Ah Zhen was stunned there, she didn't care about her anymore, but hurriedly put the bun in front of Ming Yijun, opened the oil paper and invited him to eat. Ming Yijun was already hungry, and when he saw that there were buns, he was not picky, so he reached out and took one, broke it in half, tasted it, and praised:
"It's a good bun, with a soft skin and a fragrant filling, but it's much better than what you cook. β
Zhan Lu laughed twice to hide her embarrassment, but when she raised her eyes, she saw that Ah Zhen's eyes were red.
Zhan Lu had never seen Mrs. Ah Yi make such a look: she was timid, her eyes were fixed on Ming Yijun, and she looked like she wanted to speak and stopped.
Ming Yijun also seemed to feel her special gaze, looked up and saw Ah Zhen Niangzi, saw her true appearance at a glance, and asked:
"Is that the one who lives here?"
Ah Zhen ran to Ming Yijun in a few steps, with tears in her eyes:
"Yes, Ah Zhen has been taken in by this family since he was transformed thirty years ago, and he has been living here. β
Ming Yijun nodded, I see, this is easy to explain. Yesterday he was pursued by the heavenly soldiers, escaped by the rain, and was not knowing where to go, when he suddenly noticed a familiar aura that seemed to come from himself, and instinctively felt that this place was safer, so he followed this trace of aura.
He arrived at the wine. Originally, I was still a little puzzled about why there was a smell of his aura here, but I only understood what happened when I saw Ah Zhen.
Ming Yijun's favorite thing is to travel around the world and visit various places to eat. A hundred years ago, he also went to this small county town and had a meal here, which was originally accidental, but he did not pay attention to leaving a pair of tooth braces that he was used to here. When I returned to the cave, I found out, but I didn't take it to heart. Now that I see her, I remember this old incident.
When Mrs. Ah Zhen saw her master, she told her about her experience over the years. It turned out that this toothcuff was originally an antiquity, and it had been carried by him for more than a thousand years, and it had long been contaminated with aura and had divine sense, but it was usually lazy and rarely cultivated, so it had not yet been transformed. Since she was lost in this wine shop by the owner, she was picked up by the owner of the wine shop at the time, and knew that it was a valuable item lost by the customer, so he kept her well. This brace has never lived like this, and under all kinds of loneliness and boredom, he cultivates every day, and after a few decades, he actually cultivates into a spirit body.
Although she was a girl in her twenties, she was ignorant, not even a three-year-old child, and she only said that her name was Ah Zhen, and she was separated from the Lord. Although the people in the wine shop did not know her details, they saw that she was pitiful, so they took her in.
This lady learned some sophistication in the wine shop, and her wisdom gradually opened, and she missed her master. She was originally an ignorant and ignorant brace, but because she followed her master to open her senses, she was particularly attached to her master.
She knew that the Lord had lost her here, and she was so obsessed with the idea that the Lord would one day come here to look for her, so she refused to go too far from the liquor store no matter what. But after all, she is a spirit, and in a noisy place like a wine shop, she will always feel a little uncomfortable after a long time. Therefore, every once in a while, she would go to the nearby mountains to live for a few days, absorb the moonlight, and breathe well.
Although she has a short time to transform into a shape, she has a long time to cultivate. There is not much aura in this vicinity, there are not many monsters, and a few little demons see that she is powerful, so they all serve her as a leader, which is a meaning of seeking shade, and often find spiritual objects to honor her. Therefore, she has been here all these years, but she doesn't feel that it is so hard.
After waiting for 30 years, he finally saw the Lord again, and his infinite joy was indescribable.
Zhan Lu and Ah Zhen eat and live together, like sisters, and have long been vaguely aware that she is different from ordinary people, but now although she knows that she is an alien, Zhan Lu does not feel so surprised and afraid. It's just that...... Is the lord she is talking about the same as the Mingyi Jun in front of her?
Zhan Lu raised his eyes and peeked at Ming Yijun. His people are as glamorous as peaches and plums, cold as frost, and they are indeed overwhelming. If he were human......
She was in a trance, and suddenly Ah Zhen Niangzi pushed her on the side and pushed her in front of Ming Yijun.
Zhan Lu didn't know what Ah Zhen was going to do, and looked at Ah Zhen and Ming Yijun, but she was very confused.
I only heard Ah Zhen Niangzi say to Ming Yijun:
"This child's name is Ye Zhanlu, and he is the owner of this wine shop, so he must have seen it before. Ah Zhen watched her grow up and had a great friendship with her. β
Ming Yijun couldn't help laughing:
"You are just a pair of ignorant teeth, but you also know how to friendship. What do you want to say when you bring this child to me?"
Ah Zhen's face turned red, nudged Zhan Lu, and whispered in her ear:
"Don't you often say that if your sense of taste is the same as that of ordinary people, you must not be inferior to anyone else in cooking? β
Zhan Lu was stunned for a moment when she heard Ah Zhen say this, and she didn't understand what she meant for a while. It took a while for her to come to her senses.
On the day when Zhan Lu had just found out that she had lost her sense of taste, she cried and overturned the dinner table. But after so many years, she has come to terms with this reality. Despite this, when he heard such news suddenly, Zhan Lu was shaken violently.
This Langjun in front of him...... Can it really cure her?
