Beijing Xiyuan Inn.

At the front counter, Rong Xian, the attendant of Runzeyu, was checking out with the shopkeeper. Runze Yu stood at the door with a jade fracture fan in his hand, leisurely looking at the passers-by.

After Rong Xian finished settling the account, he went to the backyard of the inn and drove the carriage to the door of the inn.

As soon as the carriage started the wheels, the old man and the girl who had been monitoring Runze Yu8 also got on their horses and followed.

Immediately, the girl raised her eyebrows and said to the old man who was walking side by side, "Father-in-law, even if we don't follow him, we know where that Runzeyu will go, so why bother to follow him so closely to find out?" ”

The old man coughed lightly, as if he was sick, and it was often accompanied by a cough. After coughing, he breathed a sigh of relief before he said, "If it doesn't reach the seventh day of tomorrow, Runzeyu finds that person, do we still have a chance?" ”

The girl sorted out her thoughts, too. Thinking that my stepfather came this time, he was burdened with a great responsibility, and he should not miss this opportunity.

Runzeyu's carriage went straight to Danzhou, north of the capital, and behind him followed the two horses in the distance, and the horses were covered with dust.

On this post road to Danzhou, there are a lot of people who go to the same place today, as if they come from all directions, and the purpose is Danzhou.

Horsemen, sedan chairs, and walkers, there are groups of people at intervals on this road.

The old man and the girl followed like this, so it didn't seem dazzling, and they didn't let the Runzeyu in front of them notice it.

When he arrived in Danzhou, Runzeyu's carriage came directly to the largest wine store in Danzhou City, the July Building.

Why is this restaurant called July Building, because every year July is the most lively month in Danzhou, and it is also the best month for the business of local restaurants and inns. The owner of this sake shop took such a name.

The July House is as its name suggests, the Festival of July.

When Runzeyu entered, it was still a little shocked, the July Building is divided into three floors, the first floor is a place for ordinary people to eat, there are about more than 100 tables.

The first floor is relatively noisy, there are all kinds of three religions and nine streams here, and there are still people making loud noises, Runzeyu frowned slightly, and there are few vacant seats on the first floor, Runzeyu had to walk towards the second floor.

When he reached the second floor, there were relatively few tables, but he was almost sitting, and it was a lot quieter, Runzeyu was still not satisfied, and he didn't want to be on the first and second floors, so he walked directly to the third floor.

"This son, I'm sorry, all the seats on the third floor have been booked, please change places."

Runzeyu was about to go upstairs, but was stopped by a guard guarding the restaurant, the restaurant was wearing a guard, Runzeyu had already heard about it, and it was very clear. So this time, I have already prepared for it.

A few days ago, Runzeyu asked Rong Xian to come and set up a room. Except for the three-story wing, which is quiet and can be treated, the two floors below are not places for people of his status.

"Hanmei is newly blooming." At this time, Rong Xian, who had parked the carriage, had already walked up and hurriedly reported the name of the wing room to the guards of the wine shop.

When the guard heard this, he smiled and saluted, "Childe will please go up when he has booked a room." ”

Runze Yu and Rong Xian were greeted on the third floor.

The old man and the girl who followed could only stay on the second floor, and sat down in a window position on the second floor.

The little two here are all very arrogant, especially when they saw that the old man was dressed ordinarily and looked like he was above the top, looking at the old man and asking casually.

"What do you order?" The shopkeeper was silent and did not have a trace of enthusiasm.

Dog's eyes look at people low!

Ye Xuemian put a certain amount of silver on the table with a "snap", and the silver was not small.

"A few specials."

As soon as the shopkeeper saw Yinzi nodding his head, his face immediately changed, and he greeted with a smile, "Okay, I'll be here soon, the two guest officers will wait a minute." ”

However, the speed of the July Building is still quite fast, but a tea time, two huge Peking ducks were delivered, the aroma is overflowing, its skin is grilled into a charred yellow, the outside is charred and the inside is tender, the oil flows out along the pores, oily but not greasy, and a little crunchy.

"Father-in-law, taste." Ye Xuemian tore off a duck leg and honored his old man first.

Seeing that the righteous father looked melancholy, Ye Xuemian understood, but she could only comfort, "Father-in-law, there will definitely be a clear purpose this time, don't worry too much, that prophecy doesn't mean that it will appear this year, it will definitely appear." ”

The old man was sad, tears fell from his eyes, and he couldn't stop crying.

The father-in-law has never been so sad, he can be so sad in this public, Ye Xuemian also sank his eyes as if he was entangled and heartbroken.

She put down the duck leg in her hand, took a handkerchief from her bosom and handed it to the old man.

The old man felt that he had lost his temper at this time, so he didn't take her handkerchief, but wiped his tears with his sleeve, and then smiled emotionally, looked at Ye Xuemian and said, "The prophecy must be true, she will definitely appear." ”

Ye Xuemian comforted and busy, "Yes, it will definitely appear." ”

Only then did the old man pick up the chopsticks and eat, and only when he was full did he have strength.

～～～～～～～～～

Qingluan Annex.

On the round table of the flower hall, the people set up the dishes, five dishes and one soup, and the color and flavor are complete.

Jian Xiu, Liu Piao, and Xing Ruchen sat at the table and ate quietly.

Jian Xiu glanced at Xing Ruchen and said expressionlessly: "I may not come back in the next two days, you take care of memories." ”

Again.

Xingruchen chuckled in his heart. Yesterday, I didn't say that I wanted him to take care of him, and I would return in the evening.

"Okay." Walking like dust can only be done in this way.

Liu Piaoyi blinked her eyelashes lightly and asked lightly, "Can't I go back yet?" ”

Early this morning, didn't he say that the Zhao family didn't make an accident. She planned with her heart, and it just passed?

If nothing happened, why couldn't she go back?

Jian Xiu paused slightly, hooked his thin lips slightly, and said, "I told my mother that you had smallpox, and you stayed in this courtyard to let Lang Zhong be treated, so you can't go back for the time being." ”

He thought that Zhao Xuhao's matter would be moved, so he had to explain it to his family.

Smallpox?

Liu Piaoyi frowned slightly, feeling very funny in his heart.

Xing Ruchen sneered even more, and after Jian Xiu glared at him, he hurriedly tightened his mouth.

Liu Piaoyi was slightly stunned, and then smiled quietly: "Where are you going?" ”

She didn't know how she wanted to know what he was going to do.

Jian Xiu looked at her clear eyes, thin lips smiled faintly, not wanting to hide her, "It may take two days to go to Danzhou." ”

Xing Ruchen's face was slightly stunned, but the look of doubtful Jian Xiu only disappeared in a flash.

Miss Liu wanted to ask him what he was doing in Danzhou, but thinking that Xing Ruchen was also present, Jian Xiu would not tell him about the official trip of the imperial court, so he didn't ask any more.

When Jian Xiu left, Miss Liu stood under the corridor and watched his back slowly disappear in front of him.

When he said to leave, she was a little reluctant.

She smiled stunned in her heart, laughing at herself for being ......

"Miss Liu can play chess?" A warm voice came from behind him.

Liu Piaoyi came back to her senses, turned to look at Xing Ruchen, she shook her head, thinking that he would be disappointed, but who knew that he actually said: "It's better for me to teach you how to play chess, otherwise I will be very bored to see Miss Liu." ”

Liu Piao was stunned for a moment, but nodded and responded, "Okay." ”

After sitting down in the pavilion in the garden, a few low tables, the chess was set up like dust.

He told her how to play chess while playing chess, which was very similar to how Luo Yange felt when she was lonely and bored with Luo Yange, and Luo Yange taught her to play chess......

Liu Piaoyi didn't say anything, didn't ask anything, and just played chess with him. Her face was calm and calm, but her heart turned a thousand times.

The scene of that day and Luo Yan came back to her mind again. At that time, she didn't, she always lost, she always asked Brother Luo Yan to let her, but Brother Luo Yan never let her win.

Luo Yan wanted to tell her where she lost and why she lost, and he always broke it down to her. And she also listened very carefully, studied seriously, and only thought about winning Brother Luo Yan one day.

However, there was never such an opportunity again.

Xing Ruchen narrowed his eyes and looked at her beautiful face fixedly, he didn't want to win her chess, he played chess purely to talk to her closely.

Liu Piaoyi didn't notice his look.

Xing Ruchen pondered for a moment, his eyes inadvertently swept over Liu Piao's eyes, and said casually, "Miss Liu, do you know what day Danzhou will be tomorrow?" ”

There is a faint aroma in the air, which seems to linger on the tip of the nose, making people unconsciously trance.

She looked up at him and shook her head lightly, "I don't know." ”

Xingruchen's eyes were half-narrowed, and the corners of his mouth were smiling, "On the seventh day of the seventh month of July, the birthday of the old man who has no life." ”

No Child?

Liu Piao's brows furrowed, she had heard it before, as if Brother Luo Yan had told her about it.

The childless mother is both the creator and the savior. She is the ancestor of mankind, who created the universe and mankind, and at the same time saved the descendants who had sunk in the sea of suffering, sending gods and Buddhas to the earth, or personally going down to the earth to save sentient beings.

The belief of "no mother, vacuum hometown" has become a mantra enshrined by many believers.

She remembered that Luo Yan also believed in lifeless old men.

In this way, tomorrow will be the birthday of the childless old man.

At this moment, time seemed to stand still. Xing Ruchen was suspicious of Liu Piao's expression, and she was silent for a while before raising her eyes to look at him, "So, what grand event will be held in Danzhou tomorrow?" ”

Xingruchen smiled back at her in a low voice, "Yes, Miss Liu, do you want to go?" ”

Will she be able to go?

Jian Xiu didn't ask her to stay in this Qingluan Courtyard and not go anywhere.

"Just don't let him know." Xing Ruchen's voice was clear, her smile was pure, and she could already see what she was worried about.

The look in Liu Piaoyi's eyes was clear and calm, and he didn't think much about it, and responded to him, "Okay, you go with me." ”

Hearing this, Xing Ruchen felt as if he had received a release order, and his mood was very happy, but he tried his best to control the joy on his face.

"When are you leaving?"

Liu Piaoyi stood up, and he didn't want to play chess anymore, so he couldn't wait.
