"No, not what I think. He did it. ”

Mu Xiyuan denied Mu Xiyao's words, turned to look at her, and her eyes were full of seriousness: "I don't want to ask what your name is." However, since your surname is Mu and has the same sound as my surname, I hope that you will not lose the face of this surname. Your heart needs to be practiced more. ”

Mu Xiyao was stunned, and subconsciously asked, "How to practice?" ”

Seeing Mu Xiyi, who was all confident, Mu Xiyao was very envious. I think that at the beginning, among the three children of Mu Fu, Mu Xiyuan was the most silent and easily forgotten.

I thought that her fate should be almost the same as my own. Unexpectedly, her gold, finally shone brightly, and was discovered by someone with a heart and became the wife of the national teacher. Look back at yourself...

Thinking of this, Mu Xiyao's eyes were a little gloomy.

"Okay, do you know if there's a place to eat? I'm a little hungry. Mu Xiyuan's soft words interrupted her train of thought.

Dine? Eating?

Mu Xiyao then remembered that she and Mu Xiyuan didn't eat when they went out, and after chatting for so long, they were a little hungry. But... I have been in the teahouse these days, I haven't gone out to see it, and I don't know where to find a place to eat.

Mu Xiyuan seemed to see her embarrassment, and stroked the bangs on her forehead slightly, "Forget it, let's watch while walking." Looks like you're not familiar with this place either. ”

Mu Xiyao laughed awkwardly.

And behind them, the officers and soldiers who secretly protect them have already dealt with a lot of thieves who follow them.

"Shall we help them find it?"

“... Forget it, we don't know what Madame likes to eat, so let them find it themselves. ”

"But if the second young man asks..."

“...”

"Why don't I try it? Anyway, I know this place. None of them have eaten, and if they go on like this, I'm afraid that Madame won't be able to stand it. ”

“... Okay. ”

...

Mu Xiyi and the others were walking down the street, looking for a place to sit and rest and eat. Suddenly, in the afterglow of her eyes, she caught a glimpse of a somewhat familiar figure.

Isn't that the Ye family's family? What was he doing in such a hurry?

Mu Xiyuan looked around.

Since it is still between midnight and midnight, there are few people on the street now, and there are sparse maids who go to the street to buy vegetables across the vegetable basket, or those vegetable farmers who sell vegetables. Most of the shops were closed, and there was no smoke in sight.

But between the few huts, she saw a few road signs made of wooden signs, pointing to an alley ahead.

The corners of Mu Xi's mouth turned up slightly. Ye Liangbei's people are still quite reliable.

"Follow me." She grabbed Mu Xiyao, who was still thinking, and walked towards the alley.

"Huh?!"

The alleys are paved with green bricks, and the roofs are made of red tiles.

And not far from the alley, there was a light smoke, mixed with a faint aroma, wafting past them.

"This is..."Mu Xiyuan was stunned for a moment.

Mu Xiyao smelled this aroma and seemed to remember something, the corners of her eyes gradually reddened, and tears overflowed.

The two of them were just so stupid, standing in the alley.

It's like a few spring and autumn days...

"Yo, here are the guests? Old woman! Hurry up and start a fire! Someone's coming! ”

"Okay!"

"Two girls, come in and sit?"

An old voice shattered the memories of the two.

"Uncle... You—" Mu Xiyuan asked with some uncertainty.

"Did you say this noodle shop?" The old man smiled and twisted his goatee. "It's been open for so many years, and there are many regular customers here, and everyone likes my old man and my wife's craftsmanship."

"Dead old man! Come in and help! ”

"It's coming. Ahem... That one... Actually, my wife has a very good heart, she is a person, and she speaks a little straighter, don't be surprised. Ahem, you said that I am old and have a lot of recitation. You two haven't had breakfast yet? Come in, come in! The old man was very enthusiastic and welcomed Mu Xikite and them in.

"The dead old man came in and looked at the water! I'll fold the vegetables! ”

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Mu Xiyao and Mu Xiyao both sat down, and then began to look around the shop.

A very simple hut, gray brick and brown wood.

But it's clean, and you can't see a single cobweb. Gently stroke the wooden chair under the seat, it is a little rough. I can feel that these wooden benches are very old.

There were some chickens and ducks behind the curtain, and even a hum or two could be heard.

There were some cracks in the wooden ridge in front of the door. The floor of the shop was clean, and there was a big yellow dog lying on its side, lazily preparing to bask in the rising sun.

"Nice quiet place." Mu Xiyuan sighed.

Mu Xiyao was a little stunned, not knowing what she was thinking.

"What's wrong with you?" Mu Xiyuan asked strangely.

"No... It's nothing, maybe I'm thinking too much..."I don't know why, this place makes Mu Xiyao feel like she is home.

"Huh?" In fact, Mu Xiyuan was also uncertain in her heart, even if she was telling her the answer in her heart, but no matter what, she couldn't connect this small shop with the place that once been.

"The soup is coming!" The old man's forehead was full of wrinkles, but he was always smiling. He put the two bowls of soup in his hand on the table of the two, "Come, try my wife's handiwork!" ”

"Dead old man! The water is boiling! ”

"Wait! I

Ask the two girls what they eat. ”

"Hurry up!"

Mu Xiyuan looked at Mu Xiyao and asked, "What are you eating?" Don't be afraid, I'll pay the bill today. ”

"Somen noodles are fine." Mu Xiyao smiled reluctantly. She smelled the aroma of the noodle soup, and the familiarity in her heart became more and more obvious.

"Okay." Mu Xiyuan nodded and looked at the old man, "Two bowls of somen noodles, I'm sorry for your trouble." ”

"No trouble, no trouble!" The old man jumped away again, and then there was another round of chickens and dogs jumping behind the door curtain.

When she turned around, Mu Xiyao had already taken off the veil covering her face, and with trembling hands, she picked up the noodle soup in front of her and took a small sip.

Mu Xiyuan's eyes widened in surprise when she saw that familiar face. She wanted to exclaim, but she remembered something and covered her lips tightly.

At this time, Mu Xiyao had already put down the noodle soup. She slowly closed her eyes, and a tear flowed from the corner of her eye.

"You... What's wrong? ”

"It's... Mother's taste. Mu Xiyao's voice was a little hoarse.

Mother... Where are you now? You know, I miss you so much...

"What..."Mu Xiyuan looked at the yellow noodle soup in front of her. She thought it was because of the water that made the noodle soup like this, but why...

She took a small sip, too.

This aroma... It's true... So familiar... It's really her...

Mu Xiyuan originally thought that she didn't need to think about the things of the former family anymore. However, I didn't expect that I didn't need to think about it, but I buried this matter deep in my heart and didn't want to face it.

If you really face... Then he will definitely have a problem with Ye Liangbei in the future.

...

"Noodles! Hey? Two girls, what's wrong with you? The old man saw that the corners of the eyes of the two of them were flushed, and asked strangely.

"No... It's nothing..."Mu Xiyuan was a little embarrassed.

"Uncle, your soup... How is chicken soup, moreover, the taste I feel... It's so familiar..."Mu Xiyao gently touched the corners of her tear-stained eyes with her cuffs and asked in a low voice.

"Familiar? This is what everyone in our Xiao family can do..."The old man was a little confused.

"Dead old man! What our Xiao family! Don't mention the Xiao family to me! From behind the curtain came the old woman's scolding.

"Old woman, it's been more than ten years, do you still remember that incident? We couldn't stop the young lady from running away at the beginning..."The old man seemed very distressed. "Besides, it's because we lost Miss, and we're also at fault..."

"What's wrong!" The old woman rushed out from behind the curtain in a hurry, holding a feather duster in her hand. "You talk nonsense! That's her running away from marriage! I have to marry someone surnamed Mu in the northern capital! Now it's good! The head of the person surnamed Mu fell

Grounded! I don't think she's much better! ”

"Shut up!" The old man was also anxious, "You are Miss's nurse!" How can you curse Miss! ”

"Phew!" The old woman took a sip. Suddenly, she saw the face that looked like Miss Xiao, the duster in her hand fell to the ground, and she ran over and hugged Mu Xiyao tightly, "Miss... Miss... You've finally come to see my wife... You... You... I..."For a while, old tears were rampant.

"The old woman... Ahem..."Mu Xiyao was almost not hugged by her.

"Old woman! You are crazy! That's another girl! Not our young lady! The old man said that he was about to pull her away.

"Nope! She's Miss! Miss... You've missed my wife to death..."

"Ahem, cough, cough..."

"You hug again! The girl is going to be suffocated to death by you! ”

"Uh... Oh oh..."The old woman let go of Mu Xiyao's embrace with some reluctance, looking at the cheeks that seemed to be a little younger, her hands trembled slightly, "Miss... You're still like that... But I'm old..."

"The old woman... You're talking about Miss... Is it Xiao Yao? Mu Xiyao asked with some uncertainty.

The old woman was stunned. She quickly wiped her eyes blurred by tears, and the face in her impression overlapped with the person in front of her. "Miss... Have you forgotten your name? ”

"It's not... That..."Mu Xiyao glanced at Mu Xiyuan with some hesitation.

Mu Xiyuan smiled slightly. "Sister, how long are you going to lie to me?"

"So you already knew..."Mu Xiyao sighed.

Sister?

The old woman looked at Mu Xiyao suspiciously, and then glanced at Mu Xiyuan. "You two...?"

"The young lady in your mouth should be the mother of the two of us..."Mu Xiyao was a little depressed.

"That is, you two are the daughters of the young lady?" The old woman asked uncertainly. "What about her? Isn't it nearby? ”
