Putting away his thoughts, Qiao Mei suddenly found that his memories of his past life began to slowly blur.

And Lin Xueyi continued to say angrily, "Today is her birthday, my father doesn't know what kind of ecstasy soup she poured into her, but he wants to do something for her!" ”

Qiao Mei was a little puzzled, General Dingyuan was a well-known beloved wife and daughter, and when he married his wife Xu, he cleared all the servant girls around him, in order to please her.

Not to mention Lin Xueyi's little daughter, her delicate and out-of-the-box temperament has been spoiled by General Dingyuan since she was a child.

Even if Xu died of dystocia later, he never remarried Xu Xian. Although this cousin is also Xu's mother's family, she is not very familiar with it in the end, and compared with her own daughter, she is not so biased towards an "outsider".

Seeing Qiao Mei's doubts, Lin Xueyi said reluctantly: "It's not that she has a bit of a look, like my mother." ”

Ling Er retreated with worship and moon worship, closed the door and let the two of them talk.

Although Qiao Mei didn't have much contact with her before, but now she feels very close to her, so she can't see her cowardly appearance, thinks about it, and quipped: "So you called me today, didn't you want to run with me and embarrass your cousin?" ”

Hearing this, Lin Xueyi tilted her head and smiled, looking at her in surprise, "You ladies would have this kind of thought......

Yes.

Qiao Mei recalled that although Xu was also a dignified and generous daughter, she died after giving birth to Lin Xueyi. General Dingyuan refused to continue the string, so he used to use his own methods to raise his children.

Therefore, Lin Xueyi has the strength to not lose to men, and she is a little unrestrained by ordinary people.

"In that case," Lin Xueyi got up, her eyebrows stretched and she smiled, "Then let's go." ”

"Just let Ling Er take the two girls you brought, don't worry, my father won't embarrass them."

Qiao Mei looked at her smile again, and smiled.

The two of them walked from the main gate, and they walked too openly, and the guards who came to guard the door under the order of General Dingyuan touched their heads and got out of the way.

The street is very lively, the paper people and the sugar gourd sellers are always surrounded by children, and there are slightly inferior rouge gouaches on the side of the stalls.

Qiao Mei picked up a crested hairpin with some curiosity, the wooden hairpin was a little poorly made, but the texture of the hairpin was surprisingly good, Lin Xueyi also probed over, sighed, and said, "You have a good eye." ”

Qiao smiled and asked how much silver the stall was.

The stall owner looked at the clothes and ornaments on their bodies, rolled his eyes twice, picked up another one, and said with a smile: "Miss, you picked too skillfully, the one in your hand is sold with this, so you will be counted as ten taels of silver." ”

Qiao Mei looked at the wooden hairpin in his hand, which was obviously worn by a man, and looked at the crested hairpin in her hand as a pair. Somehow, she suddenly remembered the arrogant and cold figure, and her fingertips couldn't help curling up.

Lin Xueyi next to her snorted coldly twice, and the dagger on her waist somehow reached her hand, only to see her throw it heavily on the table.

The dagger stood straight in front of the stall owner, making a "buzzing" sound.

The stall owner stepped back, trembling with fright, he touched the sweat on his head, and smiled bitterly, "One, one or two silver." ”

Qiao's eyebrows curled, and he handed over a piece of broken silver.

Walking on the street, there are ordinary women's chatters in your ears, taking your children home for dinner, the eyebrows and eyes of street vendors, and the comfortable sitting posture in the teahouse.

"Let's go," Lin Xueyi took her shoulder and said with a smile: "Miss Ben invites you to dinner, but most of the restaurants in the capital are the same." ”

"I'll take you to a good place!"

Walking into the alley with twists and turns, there was some slippery moss under his feet, Qiao Mei tugged at Lin Xueyi's sleeve and looked around.

The alley was dark and damp, but after a few steps, the light ahead seemed to be as bright as willows.

Rounding the corner, you will find a low-key restaurant. But...... It's low-key, but it's more down-and-out.

The black paint of "Huanxi Building" on the plaque outside the restaurant has fallen a lot, the plaque is crumbling as if it is about to fall down at any time, and the two red lanterns hanging under the eaves have also faded, and there are some cobwebs hidden on them.

Qiao Mei glanced at Lin Xueyi with some difficulty.

Lin Xueyi dragged her straight into the gate.

As soon as I entered, it was as Qiao Mei imagined, cold and deserted, and there was no guest.

"Miss Lin," it was a graceful woman who lifted the curtain and came out to speak, she smiled with her eyebrows, looked at Qiao Mei without leaving a trace, and said to Lin Xueyi with a smile, "Are you bringing a friend today?" ”

Lin Xueyi pulled Qiao's eyebrows and smiled: "Yes, Aunt Zhen, today is still the same, and then there is a pot of plum blossom stuffing." ”

The woman named Aunt Zhen responded, handed her a small wooden card, and said, "Tianzi room." ”

Lin Xueyi took it, looked at it herself, put it in Qiao Mei's hand to show her, and took her upstairs.

Qiao Mei took it and looked at it carefully, the purple and red wooden plaque was engraved with a delicate "two" character, and the feel was also turbulent, it seemed to be fragrant sandalwood. She couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, this restaurant really can't look at its appearance.

went up to the second floor, Lin Xueyi found the "Tianzi Room" and pushed open the door.

After the two went in, they sat down, and they were placed here in an antique manner, and the brocade silk used for the curved fan screen was embroidered with a noble and lazy peacock, and the tail of the finch was lazily lying on the ground, gorgeous and extravagant.

Lin Xueyi said: "Don't worry, the food here is much better than those outside." ”

Qiao Mei nodded, and then the door was knocked twice, Lin Xueyi thought it was Xiao Er, and shouted: "Come in." ”

The man who came in was dressed in a crescent white robe, his face was like jade, and the light scattered in his phoenix eyes was extremely warm, and the whole person responded to the sentence "The gentleman is restrained and bright, and he is as beautiful as jade".

Only he took the jar of wine in his hand inappropriately, and said to Lin Xueyi: "I don't know if you brought a guest, the food will have to wait for a while." He smiled at Qiao Mei again.

is obviously someone who knows Lin Xueyi.

Qiao Mei stood up.

Lin Xueyi was stunned, put down her sitting leg without a trace, and coughed: "Come and let me introduce you, this is Miss Qiao Si from Jingguo Mansion, call Qiao Mei." ”

"This is the son of Master Qin, Qin Chu."

Qiao Mei saluted and said, "Young Master Qin." ”

"Miss Qiao, you don't have to be polite, thank you for accompanying Ah Xue out today." Qin Chu smiled warmly, asked her to sit down, and put the jar of plum blossom wine on the table.
