Chapter 54: The Passing Years

The first round of guests who participated in the flower tour banquet was coming to an end, and Mingyi was a little in a hurry. She and Lianshan were busy with Shi Mi, and they couldn't spare their hands to take care of the sales of new products. I was worried, and the savior was coming.

Two tall and well-dressed men stood out from the crowd waiting to be seated, and along the way, people first smelled their fragrance, then saw their shapes, and then marveled at the delicacy of their appearance, which was not inferior to the eight oiran ladies.

The comers were naturally Xin Wulang and Jia Qilang, Ming Yi sighed deeply, these two were responsible for selling new products, and they were liberated. At the same time, I thought of the relationship between the Zhujun Teaching Workshop and the Xinglu Academy, the owner of this workshop must be Yin's mother herself, the eight Oiran, the upper, middle and lower Hachilang, all of them should be the number of gossip, she is really fascinated by the study of the five elements of yin and yang.

The affairs at hand are explained, Ming Yi wants to relax, first go to Chang'an Ju to see, it is best to meet Xia Huanfeng, if not, go to Yin's mother to help, see if he can seize the opportunity to test the affairs of the teaching workshop.

In addition to the small houses in and out of the kitchen, Chang'an Curie is particularly lively, and the rest of the place is bleak. Tables and chairs were lifted, wall decorations were removed, and plaques in the lobby were skewed to the floor. It seems that Xia Huanfeng is preparing to completely renovate this place and create an extraordinary Rongyi Fang.

Ming Yi looked at the entrance of the kitchen, among the small houses where the fish came in and out, the cyan ones were responsible for putting the used tableware in, the earthy ones were responsible for serving the dishes, and the clean tableware was delivered, there were as many as twenty or thirty people.

When you enter the kitchen, there is also a hole in it. In addition to the original kitchen, the wall leading to the backyard has been knocked open and doubled. There are nearly 10 chefs and helpers, each performing their own duties, and they are like a modern assembly line, washing and cutting vegetables and making vegetables and cloth vegetables, which are in good order.

In the kitchen, she saw Yin's mother, who was also standing silent.

"This Xia Niang's methods are really extraordinary, I originally wanted to come in and dispatch, but I don't have to worry about it at all." Mother Yin was not surprised when she came, "You and I should really ask her for more advice." ”

"Mother Yin is too humble. Although Xia Niangzi is well-managed, Yin's mother supports the largest Qinglou and teaching workshop in Chang'an, and I am afraid that all women in the world are impressed. Mingyi only lightly brought the word "Jiaofang", waiting for Yin's mother to pick up, she was stunned for a while and smiled.

"It's not easy to talk here." Yin's mother took Mingyi out of the kitchen and walked to the second floor, admitting calmly: "I know that there will be a day when I can't hide it from you, but I didn't expect it to be so fast." Mingyi is really smart, but I don't know where I went wrong? ”

Mingyi was also open and honest: "You wrote me a letterhead, and the contract signed by the owner of the workshop has a word, and the handwriting is difficult to hide." ”

Yin's mother suddenly realized and laughed twice: "It seems that I am still old and not careful enough. Fortunately, I didn't want to hide it from Mingyi, but I didn't want to be too ostentatious, after all, the teaching workshop was not an open business. ”

Ming Yi respectfully bowed to Yin's mother, and Yin's mother was so frightened that she hurriedly held her arm: "What does this mean?" ”

Mingyi Zhengse said: "The owner of the workshop has helped Mingyi many times, regardless of gains and losses, Mingyi is ashamed. Cause and effect follow each other in the world, and grace will be rewarded, and I have been treated well by Yin's mother again and again, and I am afraid in my heart, hoping to inform cause and effect. ”

Mother Yin's face sank like water, she turned her back to look at the bustling crowd downstairs, and sighed for a long time: "It's all an old thing from more than 20 years ago, I didn't want to mention it." But if you don't say it, I'm afraid you won't be able to let go of it in your heart, and you won't accept the kindness I should give. ”

Ming Yi was relieved when he heard it more than 20 years ago, at that time, Ming Niangzi was still a child, and it was all the entanglement of the previous generation.

Yin's mother said that at that time, as a prostitute in the army, she had fallen in love with a military general, and the other party had a prominent status, and it was impossible to include her in the mansion, but she had the ability to give her freedom, change her name and surname and raise her in a foreign house. Before the year came, a fire broke out in the backyard, and the military general happened to be out to fight, and his wife came to him and sold her into the Qinglou.

It was there that she met Feng Sihai, who often came to socialize.

When Yin's mother said this, she showed a girlish look: "Your grandfather was still young at that time, quite handsome, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and extraordinary momentum. You are only four or five years old, and you have no mother since birth, and he is alone with his daughter, although the family is rich, it is inevitable that he will be lonely. After going back and forth, we fell in love, and he ransomed me back to the house, ready to renew the strings at another day. ”

Ming Yi stood up, and already roughly understood that this Yin's mother was good to her because she had feelings for his dead grandfather: "Then in this way, I knew Yin's mother when I was a child?" ”

"You probably won't remember." Yin's mother was worried, "I have only been with you for twenty days, and it is all fate." The military general returned to Chang'an, and kept chasing after me, begging for me with your grandfather, and I was in a dilemma. ”

Mingyi listened to the play: "You still like that military general in your heart, but he can't give you a stable life." ”

Mother Yin nodded: "You have also experienced bitter love and hate, or you can understand my feelings." No matter how attractive a stable life is, if you love someone, you can destroy all reason. I chose to leave your grandfather. ”

Of course, Mingyi knows that this is the ending, otherwise, Yin's mother is already her aunt: "Then why are you still ......?"

"You're still living in a green building, aren't you?" Yin's mother's eyes were empty, "He said that he has ambitions heavier than life, and he must use the power of his father-in-law's family to climb up, but he will not abandon me." He helped me buy the Hanglu Courtyard, so that I could avoid his wife's eyes and ears here, and I would not have to be wronged. ”

"Did he achieve his ambitions? Are you still waiting for him? Mingyi felt sad for the seemingly powerful and calm woman in front of him.

The smile on the corner of Yin's mother's mouth was very far-fetched: "He has probably achieved it, and I don't wait anymore." It is long since we could no longer cross paths. ”

Ming Yi was speechless, so he had to go up and pat Yin's mother's arm gently: "If there is no expectation, there is no disappointment." ”

Mother Yin patted the back of her hand: "I have already let go of that man, but I have always felt very guilty about you and your grandfather." Your grandfather is deeply resentful, and will never see me again. And you could have had a mother, but I made you lose this opportunity. So now I can help you, I will not be stingy, you must not refuse. ”

After Ming Yi suddenly solved the doubts in his heart, he was very relaxed and comforted: "This can't be blamed on Mother Yin, in the face of love, you can't be forced, you and I didn't have the fate of mother and daughter more than 20 years ago, and now we can be so deed, it's another fate." ”

Mother Yin said with a smile: "You also know that our Xinglu Courtyard never forcibly forces the little ladies to pick up guests, the face is bright, but in fact, the income is not much, and it has to support such a big pomp, as well as the cost of this flower banquet." So another Zhujun workshop was opened to subsidize the deficit here. ”

Ming Yi originally still had questions about the Zhujun Sect, but now Yin's mother also explained it simply, and she had nothing to say. But I always felt that there was something strange in my heart.
