Under the gaze of Chu Haoyu and Chu Yuanjing, Sun Yiyang just said lightly: "An old friend." ”

Seeing that his uncle didn't want to say more, Chu Haoyu was curious but didn't ask much, and at this moment, Zhu Zhuangyuan ran out and said with a smile: "Three, the table has been cleaned up, please!" ”

Walking into the noodle shop with his uncle, seeing that Zhu Zhuangyuan even used brocade clothes to wipe the stool for his uncle after running, Chu Haoyu asked Zhu Zhuangyuan: "Fatty, why are you so attentive?" ”

Hehe laughed, Zhu Zhuangyuan opened his mouth and said: "Fat man, I have listened to the story of Master General Sun Lao since I was a child, and I have always admired it. ”

Seeing that Chu Haoyu looked over, Sun Yiyang sat down and said, "His master and I are fox friends and dog friends." When my uncle was young, he was obsessed with Fenghua Xueyue, and it happened that his master was also like this, but he didn't expect him to accept such a fat apprentice. ”

Hearing Sun Yiyang's words, Zhu Zhuangyuan laughed and said: "Although my nephew was not as handsome as the two sons when he was a child, he was not satisfactory, but later he was greedy and became like this. ”

Sun Yiyang didn't take care of Zhu Zhuangyuan anymore, but said lightly: "Three bowls of noodles, one for each of the braised vegetables." ”

At this moment, Zhu Zhuangyuan smiled and said, "Okay, Elder Sun waits!" In the shouting, Zhu Zhuangyuan had already run to the stove.

It didn't take long for Zhu Zhuangyuan to come over with four plates of side dishes, and said with a smile: "Three, you eat first, and the noodles will be ready immediately." ”

The side dishes are very simple, braised tofu, spiced soybeans, dried radish, and a sauce of pork trotters.

nodded, but Sun Yiyang didn't move his chopsticks, seeing this, even if Chu Haoyu wanted to taste it, he could only endure it.

When Zhu Zhuangyuan brought three bowls of noodles, Sun Yiyang picked up the chopsticks and tasted them carefully, and Chu Haoyu couldn't help but taste the four side dishes again.

The taste is really good, definitely not worse than the imperial kitchen, I think this old man is an elder of the Weimen, otherwise, Zhu Zhuangyuan would not hide here to heal. After tasting four side dishes, Chu Haoyu paid attention to his noodles and tasted them.

The taste is good, and the noodles are smooth, but Chu Haoyu didn't find anything special after tasting it, and couldn't help but look at his uncle Sun Yiyang, as if he didn't understand why his uncle didn't taste the side dishes with good color and aroma, but seeing his uncle's demeanor when he was eating, Chu Haoyu couldn't help but be stunned.

Chu Haoyu didn't know how to describe his uncle's demeanor when eating, he didn't seem to be elegant, it seemed a bit too much to say that he was calm, but he ate very seriously, chewing one bite at a time, savoring little by little, extremely focused.

Sensing Chu Haoyu's gaze, Sun Yiyang stopped his chopsticks and opened his mouth to ask, "Xiao Qi, how is it?" ”

Shaking his head, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "I still think this small dish is delicious." ”

Sun Yiyang nodded, but looked at Chu Yuanjing and said, "What about you?" ”

At this moment, Chu Yuanjing had already eaten a bowl of noodles, and when he heard Sun Yiyang's words, Chu Yuanjing shook his head and said, "I just ate it smoothly, and I finished it without a taste." Fat Zhu, bring me another bowl. ”

Glaring at Chu Yuanjing, Chu Haoyu opened his mouth and said, "Foodie." ”

Chu Yuanjing didn't quarrel with Chu Haoyu, picked up a piece of pig's trotter and smiled at Chu Haoyu, and then took a big bite of it.

Seeing this, Chu Haoyu glared at Chu Yuanjing fiercely, and then began to eat noodles again. Without deliberately tasting it, Chu Haoyu quickly finished eating a bowl of noodles.

Seeing that Chu Haoyu finished eating, Sun Yiyang asked again, "How is it?" ”

This time, Chu Haoyu thought for a moment and then said, "It's really good, but I really haven't found anything special except for it." ”

chuckled, Sun Yiyang smiled: "The more ordinary the food, the more subtleties can be revealed, just like those of us who practice martial arts, the higher the martial arts, the more magical it can appear in the ordinary." Seeing Chu Haoyu deep in thought, Sun Yiyang didn't disturb him, just sat quietly.

At this moment, it was already dark, and the diners seemed to notice the extraordinaryness of a few people, and after eating, they got up and left, and it didn't take long for only three people left in the noodle restaurant.

Seeing that the old man put down the group, Sun Yiyang said slowly: "Old friends have been here for so long, and you don't say hello?" ”

Suddenly, Chu Haoyu and Chu Yuanjing both set their eyes on the old man kneading dough. Under the reflection of the red fire, the old man's wrinkles became deeper and deeper, and his gray eyes had no trace of brilliance, as if even the flames could not illuminate him.

The old man didn't speak, but turned around and walked over, and at this moment, Sun Yiyang said again: "Is there any wine?" ”

Nodding, the old man walked slowly to the backyard, and when he reappeared, there was already an extra jar of wine in his hand, and there was mud on the wine jar, thinking that it had just been dug out of the soil.

Putting the wine jar on the table, the old man sat down opposite Sun Yiyang, and then opened his mouth and said, "How did you enter Beijing?" ”

The weak voice was a little hoarse and a little harsh, and with the appearance of the old man, it really looked like an old man who was about to die.

Looking at the old man, Sun Yiyang opened his mouth and said: "When I am old, I want to come out for a walk and see my old friends, at our age, maybe one day it will be gone." ”

This time, before the old man could speak, Chu Haoyu shouted, "Uncle, how can you say that?" After a pause, Chu Haoyu continued: "Uncle, your martial arts are so good, and you have health skills, now you look like you are only in your thirties, I think you can live to be at least 100 years old, uncle." ”

Sun Yiyang didn't pay attention to Chu Haoyu, but looked at the old man and asked, "You have been selling noodles for thirty years, and you haven't been able to take that step?" ”

The old man did not answer immediately, and after a long silence, he suddenly let out a sigh and said, "There is no chance in this life." As he spoke, the old man waved his hand to open the wine jar, poured five glasses of wine, and said, "Sit down, have a drink with the old man." ”

Smelling the rich aroma of wine, Chu Yuanjing had already recognized what kind of wine it was, and blurted out: "Fifty-year-old daughter red? I'll taste it. At the end of the words, Chu Yuanjing had already picked up the wine glass and poured it down, with a look of enjoyment on his face.

Sun Yiyang's expression was calm, but there was a trace of indescribable sadness in his eyes, and he picked up the wine glass and slowly tasted the wine.

At this moment, the old man also picked up the wine glass, although his wrinkled face was calm, there was indescribable loneliness and helplessness in his eyes.

For this kind of wine, Zhu Zhuangyuan's eyes had already shining, and at this moment, he couldn't help but sit down and pick up the wine glass. For a moment, there was silence!

Chu Haoyu is not good at drinking, he glanced at his uncle and the old man, especially when he saw the looks of the two of them, he showed an interesting look on his face, and then picked up his wine glass.

It is indeed a good wine, the color of the wine is not the usual clear and light, but slightly yellow and viscous, the flavor is fragrant but not dispersed, the entrance is luscious and the throat is clean, as if swallowing a sweet grape with a round, delicate and long aftertaste. Although the wine is good, Chu Haoyu is not a good wine person after all, after tasting it for a while, he began to look at the expressions of several people under the rotation of the beads.

Chu Yuanjing's face no longer had the previous arrogance, but a look of enjoyment, so that his eyes narrowed slightly. I don't know if it's because he's laughing or tasting wine, Zhu Zhuangyuan's already small eyes are almost gone, and his demeanor is a little unbearable. chuckled, but Chu Haoyu set his eyes on his uncle Sun Yiyang's face.

Sun Yiyang's face has not changed much, and he is still calm, but there is a bit of nostalgia in his eyes, as if he is enjoying the wine and reminiscing about the past years. Sensing Chu Haoyu's gaze, especially the mischievous smile in his eyes, a hint of a smile finally appeared in Sun Yiyang's eyes.

After smiling at Uncle Chong, Chu Haoyu looked at the old man. The old man's face did not change at all, and his gray eyes did not show any brilliance, as if for him, he had just drunk a cup of ordinary boiled water.

Although the wine was down, the atmosphere was not lively, even when Chu Haoyu saw that his uncle and Old Man Liu did not gnaw, he obediently closed his mouth.

Soon, a jar of daughter red saw the bottom, at this moment, Sun Yiyang looked at the old man Liu for a moment, and said: "If you are full of wine and food, you should also leave, and say goodbye." After finishing speaking, Sun Yiyang got up and left, without a word of nonsense, without the slightest nostalgia.

Old man Liu didn't speak, and he didn't even look up, but there was an indescribable sadness in his gray eyes, and his rickety body seemed to melt into the darkness.

Following his uncle Sun Yiyang's side, seeing that although his uncle's posture was free and easy, Chu Haoyu could feel a sense of sadness, even downfall.

After a moment of silence, Chu Haoyu finally couldn't help it, and opened his mouth to ask: "Uncle, who is that old man, and, also, what does it matter if you fall to the ground, you don't look like old friends at all?" ”

Sun Yiyang didn't answer immediately, and walked slowly in the deep alley, the moonlight stretched a long shadow, like the loneliness in his heart. In the silence, Sun Yiyang suddenly spoke: "I told you when I came that my uncle was infatuated with a girl who was his daughter. ”

Suddenly, Chu Haoyu couldn't help but be stunned, his face was full of shock, and Sun Yiyang continued: "After Qing'er Xiangxiao Yu died, I returned home to retreat, and he also retired to the rivers and lakes without a trace, and I also found out that he was hidden in the capital after many inquiries. Speaking of this, Sun Yiyang had undisguised helplessness on his face, shook his head and sighed: "I have been reluctant to enter Beijing for several years, but I never thought that I still couldn't hide." ”

At the end of the words, Sun Yiyang shook his head, then looked at Chu Haoyu and said, "Xiao Qi, the world is impermanent, grasp the present dynasty." ”
