43 Chapter 43

Early in the morning of August 13, a girl in a pink light shirt was sent to her in the Tianxiang Building opposite, saying that she was invited to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Moon Appreciation Party in Tianxiang Building.

Xie Ling has lived here for more than 17 years, and she has long been familiar with the name of the Mid-Autumn Festival Moon Appreciation Party in Tianxianglou, but she never thought that she would be invited one day.

"Really...... Is it for me? ”

The girl smiled, "Naturally, it's for you to shopkeeper Xie, but our master has praised you for a long time, and let me find a chance to learn from you." ”

…… When it's over, won't she be the pastry chef in the master's mouth who is not as good as her Tianxianglou pastry master?

Probably because her puzzled expression was too obvious, the girl snorted and laughed, "I have also tasted the pastries made by Miss Xie, it is true that my skills are not as good as others, and the master is not wrong." ”

Xie Ling didn't expect her to admit it so readily, but the other party was so generous, she was hypocritical if she twisted it again, and took the post without hesitation, "I will definitely arrive on time." ”

"Then I'll go back and wait for Shopkeeper Xie."

After sending the girl away, Xie Ling opened the beautifully made post and looked at it, which was written in gold ink to invite the shopkeeper Xie to come and enjoy the light, and there was a seal of Tianxianglou that could not be faked in the lower right corner.

To be honest, she was really a little excited, you must know that the people who can receive this post are all celebrities in Yangzhou City identified by the owner of Tianxianglou, she really never thought that she would receive it one day.

But from this point of view, Hefangzhai's current fame should indeed be very loud and not her illusion.

When Xie Xing came back in the evening, his eyes widened in disbelief when he learned that she had been invited, but his focus was obviously never right, and after being surprised, he asked as if he remembered something: "I heard Zhu stop saying that the person who received the post didn't have to pay no matter how much he ordered that night?" ”

Xie Ling: "...... That is true. ”

"Wow, sister, bring me a crab roe lion head!"

Xie Ling could barely restrain the twitching corners of his mouth, "If you really want to eat, I'll buy it for you later." ”

"It's not that delicious." He looked right.

What doesn't cost money is delicious, this logic, convincing, can't be refuted.

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Hefangzhai closed the door an hour in advance and let a few helpers go back to reunite with their families. Xie Ling prepared dinner in advance for Ximen to blow snow, Xie Xing and the cold-blooded people who were left by her to eat because she came to guide Ximen to blow snow.

Originally, she didn't expect that cold-blooded would come today, so there was a crab roe tofu in the dish she prepared, so she could only tell the two little ghosts to take care of it before going out, and don't let Lord Leng touch this.

Cold-blooded was very embarrassed, and she didn't look up until she went out with the post.

However, she walked in a hurry, and her eyes missed the red ears that the young man had not seen in a long time.

Tianxianglou and Hefangzhai are located in the most central location of Yangzhou, it is the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the streets are full of young men and women coming and going, and there are bold couples even hugging and whispering together on the riverside not far away.

Xie Ling walked through the crowded wide street and went straight to the main entrance of Tianxiang Building, and the maid waiting by the door opened her post and glanced at it, and suddenly smiled, "It turned out to be the shopkeeper Xie, please upstairs." ”

In order to make herself look less cold, Xie Ling specially changed into a bright yellow dress today, she was already fair-skinned, and she was lined with this color, under the bright lights of Tianxiang Building, she looked very delicate, and when she went upstairs, she received a lot of appreciative eyes.

The maid's tone was also very polite, and after taking her to the second floor, she first introduced her, "You are our master's distinguished guest, naturally you are sitting on the best viewing platform, and you need to shake the bell on the side if you have any tea." ”

The viewing platform she said is actually a low pear blossom wood square table, facing a large window that is completely opened, and the scenery and wind are first-class, not to mention that the table has prepared wine and food.

The girl who came to Hefangzhai to deliver the post the day before yesterday was also there, and was sitting there pouring wine, when she saw her coming, she raised the wine glass in her hand at her, "Xie Shopkeeper is here." ”

Sitting opposite her was a middle-aged man with kind eyebrows, who looked very familiar, Xie Ling thought about it, it should be a regular customer of Hefangzhai, but the girl waited for her to sit down and introduced her, "This is our master." ”

"Huh?!" Xie Ling was surprised, but he still reacted instantly and toasted a cup of tea, "It turns out that you are the master of Tianxiang Building." ”

"Shopkeeper Xie can't believe that you actually go to her every day to buy pastries to eat, Master." The girl who changed into a green dress smiled and said: "I didn't officially know the shopkeeper Xie last time, tonight the shopkeeper Xie came, I still have to introduce myself, I am the pastry chef of Tianxianglou, surnamed Lin, if the shopkeeper Xie doesn't mind, how about calling me Sister Lin?" ”

Although Xie Ling is not good at getting along with this kind of self-acquaintance, she is also not good at rejecting people, and when she said it so enthusiastically, she had to respond: "Sister Lin." ”

Master Lin almost immediately smiled when he heard this, causing the master sitting opposite her to laugh too, "You take advantage of other people's little girls again." ”

"Where is this taking advantage, Sister Xie is so beautiful and her craftsmanship is so good, I am happy when I see it."

…… Just now, I was still the shopkeeper Xie this sister!

After chatting for a while, the singing troupe that Tianxianglou must invite every year also became active.

The master probably liked it very much, and he was very fascinated by it, but Xie Ling couldn't raise any interest, and if she couldn't appreciate it, she couldn't appreciate it, and she couldn't help it.

Seeing this, Master Lin poured her a glass of wine and pushed it over to her, "Sister Xie doesn't like to listen to the play, so let's drink a few glasses with me." ”

The wine she pushed over had a very nice sweet aroma, like the smell of peaches, Xie Ling liked it almost as soon as he smelled it, he picked it up and drank a glass without thinking about it, and his eyes lit up when he finished drinking, "This wine is so sweet!" ”

"If Sister Xie likes it, I'll give you an altar."

Xie Ling hurriedly waved his hand, "Sister Lin doesn't need to be so polite, I don't usually drink." ”

"It's okay to have a drink or two once in a while." As she spoke, she poured it for Xie Ling again, "A moonlight like tonight, drinking a little is considered appropriate." ”

The moonlight is indeed very good, and the position where she is sitting happens to have a gentle cool breeze, coupled with the wine and food in front of her, which makes her feel a little drunk and not drunk.

Maybe the atmosphere was too good, or maybe she hadn't been so relaxed for a long time, under Master Lin's gentle voice, Xie Ling drank half a pot of wine unconsciously.

She really didn't know how much she was drinking, and she felt that she was still very sober, so she didn't plan to stop at all, one cup after another, and she drank so refreshingly that the master who was drunk with the concubine on the stage was also stunned when he looked back.

It's also a shame that Xie Ling looked no different from usual when she was drunk, and until the end of the moon viewing party, no one could tell whether she was drunk or not.

Xie Ling actually still had some consciousness, at least when Master Lin asked about the secret recipe of the pastry, she realized that something was wrong, but she couldn't hear it clearly when she was drunk, and she didn't say anything.

When the wine came up, she felt that there was no need to stay any longer, and tried to maintain her figure and went downstairs.

When she went downstairs, she caught a glimpse of the beautiful woman she had been thinking of in the crowd, and when she reached the first floor, her head was already very dizzy, and without thinking about it, she staggered over to say hello.

The beauty is still dressed in white today, and her temperament is like a fairy, Xie Ling subconsciously showed a smile after walking in front of her.

Obviously, the other party still remembered her, and her expression was even a little surprised, "Ah, it's the shopkeeper of Hefangzhai, have you also come to the moon viewing party?" ”

The man standing beside her also glanced at Xie Ling when he heard this, and with that glance alone, he was sure that the shopkeeper was drunk, "She's drunk." ”

"But ...... she looks?"

"It's just looking." The man smiled, "Doesn't this shopkeeper live across the street, and since you love her pastries so much, you might as well send her back." ”

People come and go, and this street is really a bit difficult to wear, especially with a person who is not drunk but is indeed drunk.

When they squeezed to the door of Hefangzhai, both of them were sweating, but fortunately they only knocked on the door twice, and someone inside opened it.

Cold-blooded was also a little surprised when he saw this man and woman, and then looked at Xie Ling, who was standing quietly on the side, and before he could speak, he heard the woman in white say with a smile: "This shopkeeper was probably drunk at the moon viewing party, and the two of us will send her back." ”

It didn't look like she was drunk, but if she wasn't drunk, she wouldn't just keep her head down and not speak at this time.

Cold-blooded nodded and whispered thanks to them.

Just as he was about to close the door, the man who had not spoken suddenly asked, "Your Excellency is cold-blooded?" ”

Not many people could identify him so easily, and most of them were thieves. So when he heard this, he almost instantly grasped the hilt of his soft sword.

The other party also noticed his action and laughed, "Lord Leng doesn't need to be nervous, I just heard about Lord Leng from a senior." ”

The woman in white was also a little surprised as if she remembered something.

Cold-blooded frowned, "Which one?" ”

"Shangguan Amano."

He really couldn't forget the name.

At that time, he voluntarily let go of Shangguan Amano, just because he knew that the case was planted by someone else, although he was innocent in the end, he was still not concluded, but he no longer took action, and others naturally couldn't move Shangguan Amano.

This person doesn't care about fame, and he doesn't bother to explain it to the world, so there are still people who use his name to do evil things, and in the past few years, cold-blooded people have also arrested a lot of such people, although they have never seen Shangguan Tianye again, but the two can also be called a sentence of mutual appreciation.

"It's really a hero out of a teenager." The smile on the man's face was even deeper, his face was like a crown of jade, and this smile made him even more handsome, "I've heard him mention Lord Leng many times, and I've always wanted to see Lord Leng, but I didn't expect to see him here." ”

Cold-blooded also remembered at this time, Shangguan Tianye once said that he had a very close relationship with the New Year's friend, and also said that he would definitely introduce the two of them to each other if he had the opportunity in the future.

He hesitated for a moment and nodded at the two.

"Under Zhang Danfeng." The man paused, and then introduced the woman in white to him, "This is my wife Yunlei." ”

The cold-blooded expression finally had obvious surprise, of course he knew these two names, but the mood at the moment was similar to what Zhang Danfeng had just said, and he never thought that they would be the first time they met here.

Before they could go on, Xie Ling, who was still quiet, suddenly moved.

Yun Lei was the first to grab her, "Hey! ”

Only then did Cold-Blooded react and stop in front of her.

"It's so late, let's not go in and disturb it, Lord Leng should hurry up and bring this shopkeeper in, she should have drunk a lot." Zhang Danfeng said.

Xie Ling really drank a lot, and the cold-blooded could even smell a very sweet smell of wine on her.

He originally planned to wait until she came back and leave, but with her current appearance, he really couldn't throw someone at the door and turn around and leave.

However, it was really difficult for him to let him help a girl.

Fortunately, Xie Ling was drunk, and he walked quite steadily, and he could even be called a wind in his steps.

But the direction she went all the way was not her room, and she followed cold-blooded and looked behind for a while, still a little worried.

Xie Ling has only moved here for less than half a year, and he is not as familiar with the terrain as the original Xie family's one-third of an acre, plus this house is really big, and he even hit the pillars several times when he passed through the corridors.

Cold-blooded wanted to candle her, but often before she could finish hesitating to stretch out her hand, she had already gone forward again, all the way to the pool where Ximen Fuxue usually practiced swords, and she stopped.

To be honest, Cold-Blooded was still a little worried about whether she would plunge into it, so she hurriedly got closer.

She didn't go forward, but she crouched down.

Cold-blooded didn't understand what she was trying to do for a while, so he could only stand beside her and prevent her from falling into it at any time.

Although it was only early autumn, the night breeze was still a little cool, and he looked at Xie Ling's hunched back, and for some reason suddenly remembered the picture of splashing her all over the water when she split a tree by the pool.

…… She must be very afraid of the cold, he couldn't help but think.

Xie Ling, who was afraid of the cold, was getting hot all over his body after drinking at this time, his mind was in chaos, and he was almost hungry and uncomfortable after drinking all night, and when he saw something in front of him that looked like a cake, he subconsciously wanted to reach out and take it.

Cold-blooded: "......"

As soon as his fingertips touched the water, he quickly grabbed her and stopped her from leaning over to catch the moon, but one stood and one squatted, and if the strength was not well controlled, she might fall down, and she was facing the water, if she fell, it was estimated that she would not be far from falling in.

Whether it was out of worry or out of not wanting to deal with a more troublesome situation, Cold-Blooded didn't want to see this happen, so he also half-squatted down and pulled the person up with force.

Xie Ling was very obedient, and he didn't want to touch the water moon again when he was stopped.

But as soon as he stood up straight, he turned to look at him, his eyes seemed to be full of complaints, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he said with grievances, "I'm hungry." ”

Cold-blooded didn't have anything to give her to eat, but he couldn't put his mind at ease if he wanted to throw someone here to find him, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

"Mooncakes......" she grabbed his sleeve and shook it, the action was a bit like being coquettish.

…… This made him even more overwhelmed.

The moon is like practice, and the sweet fragrance on the girl's body comes to her nose, she is obviously drunk, but her eyes are unexpectedly bright, and she looks at her in cold blood staring at herself motionlessly, and she is a little nervous for no reason.

Just as he was about to try to say how about I send you back to the room, she moved again, and the distance that was already close was instantly pulled closer.

Presumably to see his eyes better, she stood on tiptoe.

It was so close that he even thought that if she blinked, her eyelashes might touch him.

"You have the moon in your eyes, too." Xie Ling's tone seemed to have discovered some big surprise. 166 Reading Network
