Chapter Ninety-Eight: Once Upon a Time

Li Binghai thought for a while, and then lowered his head decadently: "It's me, it's me who I'm sorry for you." In the past, I didn't know that there was such a place in the world, no matter whether it was honorable or inferior, regardless of each other, the noble lord and prince ate with the people, no one pointed fingers at my disability, and no one despised me because of my legs, but unfortunately I was blessed and did not meet you first. ”

Li Binghai was found and exposed, and the whole person revealed a strong despair and pessimism, as if he really had no hope for life at all, his eyes were empty and expressionless, almost like a dying person.

Ruan Mianmian was very displeased with his appearance, originally left him with his life and entered a pint of incense in the hope that he could reform himself, but he didn't want him to give up himself first, but it seemed that Ruan Mianmian was too much of a move to force people to self-judge, she said coldly: "I repeat, no one wants to kill you, and no one looks at your jokes, you can't stay in Yipinxiang, but we can buy you a house in the suburbs of Beijing, let's go our separate ways, no one owes anyone in the first place, if you say it's ashamed, it's just you to us, A big man, you don't have to do this, people don't look down on it. ”

Ruan Mianmian's fierce words made Li Binghai a little more sober, and even more surprised the friends sitting next to him. Ruan Mianmian is recognized as a good-tempered person, and he is a person who refuses to be angry even if he is bullied by others, but today he is a rare impatient with this Li Binghai, but he thinks about it, Li Binghai is a person sent by King Qi, and King Qi once killed Fang Cannon in the military camp, Ruan Mianmian has never had a good color against King Qi's subordinates, which is normal.

Mu Ruqing was afraid that the stalemate would sweep everyone's interest if the situation was stalemate for too long, so he simply waved his hand: "Li Binghai, although you did something that shouldn't have happened, fortunately, no one died, and we are not the kind of people who punish the calendar, if you want, you will receive a title deed, I will send someone to send you over, and live a good life in the future, just treat these things as if these things do not exist, be a leisurely idler, and make some money with your craft, which is a blessing that many of us can't ask for." ”

Li Binghai originally thought that Yipinxiang's promise was a ploy to temporarily stabilize him, but he didn't want Mu Ruqing to really want to let him go, and generously gave him the title deed of the house, and he felt even more remorse for himself in his heart, but he didn't say that kind of radical words again, but silently got up from the ground, and made a big gift to the people at this table very seriously, and then under the gaze of everyone, he picked up his crutches and followed the little servant who sent him back to the wing room to pack up his baggage and go out the back door.

After a while, the crowd could hear the sound of kicking carriages in the back street, and silence returned.

After experiencing this turmoil, the people at the table still didn't have such a good interest, Mu Ruqing asked people to remove all the dishes made by Li Binghai, leaving only Qin Feng and Long Dafu's dishes.

Qin Feng looked at his nose and nose, and he had no mercy for Li Binghai, the person who almost killed him, and he was not punished for his mistakes, and he really didn't need the mercy of others.

Ruan Mianmian turned his head and saw the puzzled expression on Qin Fengjunxiu's face, and smiled and pinched a phoenix claw for him: "Come, taste some of the dishes you make yourself, and your mood will be a little better, as for other things, other people, there is no need to care too much, and they may not be punished personally, the wicked have their own harvest, we can't dirty our hands." ”

Jiang Xinyue also nodded in agreement: "Yes, you are all highly skilled, and he also won the top spot in the chef competition, but he lost his good future because of his bad mental skills, and he just reported it again." ”

Long Dafu had already learned from their words that it was Li Binghai who framed Qin Feng, and at this time, he was indignant, and his thick big hand slapped on the table in front of him, shaking the bowl in front of him: "I knew that this Li Binghai was not a good person, I couldn't find you this morning, so I wanted to break in, who knew that he blocked it in every way, I should have thought that he was the mastermind behind the scenes!" ”

Qin Feng helped him pick up the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, fortunately, everyone is fine, is it possible that you still want to catch up and stop him and beat him if you don't feel like it's fun now?" ”

"Yes, you still post a notice early tomorrow to explain Li Binghai's affairs clearly, the chef competition is so hot, if the leader disappears without explanation, I'm afraid someone will make a fuss about this and make it difficult to taste the fragrance." Zhu En put one hand on his cheek and brushed the loose blonde hair on the side of his face, reminding.

"Thank you princess for reminding me, I will write a notice and post it early tomorrow morning, so as not to affect us. By the way, I see that the princess and the king of England both prefer Daifuku's dishes, so it's better to wait and let him prepare more, and you can take them back to the plum garden, I think these dishes are not easy to spoil. Mu Ruqing thanked him while looking at King Ying and Princess Zhuen, both of whom seemed to be very interested in bean buns and the pot of stew, and a woman like Zhu En, who did not eat much, ate two or three bean buns and drank a big bowl of soup.

When Mu Ruqing said this, Lu Gui puffed out his two cheeks and kept chewing the bean buns in his mouth, and gave Mu Ruqing a thumbs up with crooked eyebrows, and he couldn't even speak, which shows how much he loves this kind of food.

"Oh, you eat slowly, Ming'er choked to death, wouldn't I be widowed before I got married, drink some water and press it." Zhu En also saw Lu Gui's embarrassment, hurriedly brought his own water cup to him, and reached out to pat him on the back a few times, so that Lu Gui swallowed the bean bag in his mouth.

"I have to say, the bean buns are really delicious, I remember when I was a child to travel to the extremely cold places in the north, I didn't bring enough cold clothes, my father-in-law you all know, is the old king, he took me to a small village on the mountainside with half a piece of jade pendant for me to wear, there is an old woman in that family is very kind, left us for a night, and steamed a lot of bean bags overnight for us to stuff into the baggage, just don't take a penny." The king took another bite of the bean bag, and his eyes turned slightly red.

"And then?" Ruan Mianmian has a lively mind, and likes to listen to this kind of interesting story the most, not to mention the unknown experience of the British king.

"The jade pendant we left for her before we left, promised that if one day his descendants came to the capital to join the British King's Mansion, no matter what the situation was, he would do his best to help, and he would never break his word. Now more than ten years have passed, but no one has come to them, so I guess they are living a good life on their own. The King's eyes lit up and he smiled to himself.

Everyone listened to the story quietly, but unexpectedly, Long Dafu, who was sitting on the side, suddenly probed over, and asked with some excitement: "Lord Wang, what is the jade pendant you left that day?" ”

The king only thought that he was curious about the royal jade pendant, so he reached out and groped in his arms for a while, and took out a yellow jade pendant: "That's it, it's nothing unusual, but it was rewarded by the palace for my father-in-law, and the craftsman carved a black eagle with wings ready to fly, so it's quite unique." ”

Ruan Mianmian wiped his hands on his clothes and took it, only to see that there was indeed an eagle with wings ready to fly in the corner of the semicircular jade pendant, but there was only one head and half of the body, and the other half was on the other half of the jade pendant. What's even more ingenious is that there is not a word on the jade pendant, but the feather lines on the eagle's body can vaguely distinguish the word "English", which seems to have put a lot of thought into it.

Everyone looked at the jade pendant in Ruan Mianmian's hand, but Long Dafu on the side trembled his hands very excitedly, pulled the string around his neck, pulled out a semicircular jade from his chest, carefully untied it, took it down, and put it in Ruan Mianmian's hand.

In everyone's surprised eyes, the two jade pendants were combined into one, and the shapes and patterns were so tightly knit that they couldn't see any flaws.

"You... Who are you? How do you have my jade pendant? The King of England also intently moved along Long Dafu's arm to his face, I don't know if it is a psychological effect or the influence of speculation, the more he looks, the more he feels that Long Dafu's chubby and thick face, facial features and the face of the old woman with memory are somewhat similar, plus his accent and background are all from the far north, it can almost be concluded that Long Dafu and the family where the British King and his son stayed in the past have an inseparable relationship.

"Lord Wang, the old woman you are talking about may be my grandmother." The tears in Long Dafu's eyes were already rolling, and he held the jade pendant tightly in his hand and said slowly.

"That year, I went to the mountains with my father and mother and the hunter team in the village to hunt for winter, who knew that there was a heavy snowstorm just after entering the mountain, and the heavy snow collapsed the path into the mountain, and more than a dozen of us were trapped inside, and we couldn't find the way out for a while, so we had to rely on catching some rabbits in the snow to maintain life, and hid in the mountain col for more than half a month. Later, when the snow melted and we found our way, our people had already died or disappeared due to various accidents, and by the time we returned, there were less than half of them. ”

Long Dafu wiped his tears with his big hands, and his voice was choked: "We went home with a trace of breath, and my grandmother kept chanting Buddha and kneeling, saying that it was all her blessings that appeared, and when we were uncertain about life and death in the mountains, she did good deeds to prepare bags and food for a noble person with a beautiful son, so the mountain god moved and let our family come back for reunion." Unexpectedly, the son-in-law that my grandmother saw that day turned out to be His Royal Highness the King of England. ”

"It can be seen that fate dictates, you can also have dinner at the same table from all over the world, who knows that there will be love for the day." Ruan Mianmian looked at a burly man like Long Dafu with some amusement and wiped his tears.

After getting along for this day, Ruan Mianmian felt more and more that Long Dafu's cuteness was different from others, although he looked like a martial artist, he didn't look like a cook but like a martial artist, who knew that he attached great importance and sensitivity to feelings in his heart, and his brotherly affection for Qin Feng was so excited, and he was also so excited about the accidental acquaintance with King Ying, although it was a little funny, but it was also sincere.
