Luo Xuyan sighed: "Since I returned to Beijing with the holy driver, I haven't seen the braised head again." ”

Xu Yaoyao said: "So, let's go find your father and find a way to go out for a walk." ”

"Okay." Luo Xuyan replied with a smile.

When the mother and daughter returned to Qingfeng Courtyard, Luo Banghao was sitting in the study, flipping through a thick account book.

When Luo Banghao saw them coming back, he smiled and said, "I'm thinking about going to find you back." ”

Xu Yaoyao said: "That's really heartfelt, I guess...... You came back to us to ...... Take us out for a walk? ”

Luo Banghao smiled deeply and nodded: "That's right." ”

"When I think of going together, it's like a family." Xu Yaoyao took Luo Xuyan's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go and change into more convenient clothes." ”

"Good!" Luo Xuyan responded happily.

The mother and daughter returned to the wing room, changed into a light dress, and the family did not plan to take a sedan chair or carriage, but walked out directly through the side door and walked on the street at will.

The streets of the capital are full of traffic, crowds of people come and go, laughter and noise come and go, and there is no quiet moment.

Luo Xuyan looked at everything around curiously, although the appearance of the people is the same, and the style of the buildings is roughly the same, everything in the capital is new to her, and this time she can put aside her mind for the time being and enjoy all the things in the capital.

Walking and walking, a family of three came to the door of a restaurant.

Luo Banghao said: "I have asked the next person, the taste of this family is very good in Beijing, let's eat here at noon." ”

Xu Yaoyao said: "Order a big bowl of Ayan's favorite braised pork." ”

"Poof." Luo Xuyan covered her mouth and smiled, and said cooperatively: "I will definitely eat it all cleanly." ”

Xu Yaoyao said: "Even if you eat, you must make our Ayan eat happily, that is the most important thing." ”

"Let's go." Luo Banghao said with a smile.

The guy who greeted the customer at the door saw them and greeted them warmly, "Three guest officers, please inside." Have you sent someone to set a location before? ”

Luo Banghao said: "No." ”

The shopkeeper said, "Then do you want to sit in the lobby or a private seat?" Or is it a private room upstairs? ”

Luo Banghao said: "Wherever you can see the good scenery outside, sit there." ”

The shopkeeper readily agreed: "Okay, please come here!" As he spoke, he took the three of them upstairs without hurry, came to the door of a private room, pushed open the door, and said, "Guest officer, what do you think of here?" ”

Luo Banghao looked around, then looked at his wife and daughter.

Xu Yaoyao looked at the layout of the room, facing the floor window, a round table in the center of the room, soft couches and screens on both sides, and Bogu shelves with various vases and antiques, the whole room looked chic and elegant, not like a restaurant, but like a study of a large family.

She nodded, "It's good here." ”

"Lord and lady have a good eye." The shopkeeper walked into the room first, poured three cups of tea neatly, and then pushed open the floor window.

Outside the window was a small platform, and a row of light yarns like smoke hung down, gently swaying with the breeze.

"Sir, madam, miss, you see, from here you can see the most effective stupa in the city." The shopkeeper had already heard from the accent of their speech that they were not local people in the capital, so he enthusiastically introduced: "If you haven't been there yet, you might as well go where to walk, put on a stick of incense, make a wish, I heard that it is very effective, in addition to people from other places, even the local people in the capital like to go to the pagoda on the fifteenth day of the new year to burn incense." ”

Luo Xuyan looked at the pagoda in the distance, which was about a dozen stories high and stood out among the surrounding buildings.

She squinted her eyes again, as if there was someone on the tower, and it seemed that she could go up and look into the distance.

She became a little interested, turned around, waited until her father finished ordering, and said: "After eating, let's go for a walk on the side of the pagoda∪ Randian guy recommends it, it must be a place worth visiting." ”

Xu Yaoyao looked at the pagoda and nodded, "Okay, after dinner, let's go over and have a look." ”

Luo Xuyan sat beside her mother, grabbed her arm, leaned on her body, and said, "I want to make several wishes." ”

Xu Yaoyao touched her daughter's hair and smiled faintly.

At this moment, the door of the private room was pushed open again, and they thought that the shopkeeper had returned, but before they could take a closer look, the door closed again.

Luo Xuyan looked at it, and the person who came in was not a shopkeeper, it was Cui Jingshi!

Cui Jingshi smiled at her, and then arched his hand to Luo Banghao and Xu Yaoyao, and said, "Xu is in charge, Mr. Luo." ”

Luo Banghao and Xu Yaoyao were also a little surprised, and asked, "You...... How did you get here? ”

Cui Jingshi said with a smile: "I was afraid that there would be no news suddenly, and Ah Yan would be worried, so I heard that you were going out for a stroll, so I hurried over." I'm sorry, shopkeeper Xu, Mr. Luo, I left someone outside Luofu, not intentionally to monitor, but just to find a chance to meet again. ”

Luo Xuyan touched her nose, put on a smiling face, walked quickly to Cui Jingshi's side, grabbed his arm, and said with a smile: "You have a heart." ”

Luo Banghao said: "Your Highness, please take a seat." ”

"Shopkeeper Xu and Mr. Luo should also sit down, you are elders." Cui Jingshi said humbly.

Everyone said a few polite words, and then they all sat down.

Cui Jingshi was still smiling at Luo Xuyan, Luo Xuyan pulled her hand from between his arms and muttered, "You really smile like a fool." ”

Cui Jing said: "Aren't you happy to see you?" ”

If it weren't for her father and mother beside her, Luo Xuyan would really want to stick out her tongue and make a grimace at him.

Cui Jingshi took the initiative to hold Luo Xuyan's hand again and said, "I haven't seen you for two days, shouldn't you be very happy?" ”

Luo Xuyan said: "Do you think I'm such an uncalm person? ”

Cui Jingshi smiled and squeezed her hand, then let go, "It's just right, I haven't eaten lunch yet, I don't know if I can rub your meal." ”

"If Your Highness is there, let's eat together." Luo Banghao said politely.

Cui Jingshi turned his head to look at Luo Xuyan with a calm face, the relationship between them seemed to be a routine, and after doing what he had to do, Luo Xuyan didn't say anything more.

This also shows that in Luo Xuyan's heart, he is just a partner, and there is no more intimate relationship.

Cui Jing was a little melancholy, thinking that if she hadn't seen her for two days, Luo Xuyan's mood would change slightly.

However, looking at Luo Xuyan's appearance, he thought about it again.

He sighed silently, and then said to Luo Banghao and his wife: "Because I just got out of the customs and went to the court, my father hasn't mentioned my marriage with Ayan, and he is currently concerned about political affairs, not to mention the affairs of Xiazhou, who is the paper man behind the scenes, and there is no letter until now." ”

Luo Xuyan listened, frowned slightly, and asked, "Can't you be sure who left the capital during this period?" ”

"Yes." Cui Jingshi nodded, "Before my father went to Xiazhou, everything was arranged, and there were also people monitoring the princes and high-ranking officials who stayed in the capital, but now it seems that no one has left the capital." ”

Luo Xuyan pursed her lips, and the scene before her death in her previous life couldn't help but appear in her mind.

The brocade man who was going to kill her.

However, no matter how hard she tried to recall, she couldn't remember the appearance of the man in brocade, only the similar eyes of his and Cui Jingshi.

Therefore, even if she sees Cui Jingshi's brothers now, I am afraid that she will not be able to recognize who is behind the scenes.

However, this person is very cunning, leaving no clues, and covering up her whereabouts very well, so that people can't find any clues, which makes her revenge plan even more difficult.

"Ahh

Cui Jingshi asked, "Ah Yan, what's wrong?" ”

Luo Xuyan raised her head and looked at each other.

Cui Jingshi's ink-like eyes revealed a bit of concern.

Luo Xuyan covered her stomach and said helplessly: "I'm hungry, why haven't I served the food yet?" ”

Xu Yaoyao smiled: "I'll go and urge." ”

Luo Xuyan waved her hand, "Let's go and take a peek at how this cook's braised pork is doing." ”

Xu Yaoyao said: "Be careful that the cook thinks you are stealing the master and comes to beat you." ”

"Not really." Luo Xuyan stuck out her tongue, and then ran out of the private room with brisk steps.

At this time, it was a meal, and there were more and more people in the restaurant, and Cui Jing was hindered by his identity and couldn't show his face in front of the people for a long time, so he couldn't come out.

Luo Xuyan came out of the private room and took a deep breath.

When Cui Jingshi cared about her just now, she had a strange feeling - Cui Jingshi seemed to be aware of something, and with an identity like him, it was inevitable that she would think more.

Therefore, she still came out to stabilize her mind by urging vegetables......

Luo Xuyan walked down the stairs and looked at the lobby of the restaurant, where the shop guys were busy shuttling through the crowd, and exquisite dishes were steaming in through the back door.

A guy from the shop came upstairs with steady steps, saw Luo Xuyan, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Miss let you wait, the dishes you ordered will be delivered." ”

"Ours?" Luo Xuyan glanced at the wooden plate and said with a smile: "Looking at the dishes and smelling the fragrance, you know that your food is delicious." ”

"Thank you, Miss, for the compliment." The shopkeeper said happily.

Luo Xuyan didn't continue to go down, turned around, and walked towards the private room.

Back in the private room, the shopkeeper put the plates on the table, "Sir, madam, this is the dish you ordered, please use it slowly, if you have any orders, just call us." ”

He glanced at the extra young men in the private room, and only felt that the instrument was lofty, but there were many such noble sons in the capital, so he didn't think it was an unusual thing, and after setting the plates, he withdrew from the private room and closed the door gently.

Cui Jingshi saw the big bowl of braised pork and asked, "Did Ah Yan miss the braised pork I made?" ”

As soon as she heard Cui Jing mention this matter, Luo Xuyan couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and the emotions that had just calmed down were flooded with some waves, and then sighed.

Xu Yaoyao sandwiched a piece of braised pork to her and asked, "Ayan's favorite braised pork is here, is there anything else to dissatisfaction with?" ”

Luo Xuyan immediately grabbed Cui Jingshi's arm again and said, "I, I miss the braised pork that Jing Shi made for me when I was in Xiazhou, it is very delicious." ”

"Oh?" Xu Yaoyao smiled: "Ayan is blessed. ”

Luo Xuyan smiled sweetly, then let go of her hand, picked up the chopsticks, and ate the braised pork that her mother had given her in one bite.

It is worthy of being a famous restaurant in Beijing, the taste of this braised pork is definitely not worse than that of any chef in Xiazhou, and it is even more delicious, because this pork is carefully selected, the meat is soft and fragrant, and the fat part is slightly sipped, and it melts, making people want to eat several pieces in one go.

Cui Jingshi asked in a low voice, "How is it, how does it compare to what I did?" ”

"......" Luo Xuyan glanced at him and said coldly, "You still need to improve." ”

"Oh?" Cui Jingshi touched his chin, as if he was seriously thinking about what needed to be improved in his own practice.

Xu Yaoyao said: "Your Highness, you can eat it too." ”

"yes, yes." Luo Xuyan was a little annoyed by his staring, and echoed: "Eat quickly, if you starve, what can I do." ”

Although he knew that Luo Xuyan was talking about the scene, Cui Jingshi happily responded: "Okay." ”

The gaze that fell on him finally turned away, Luo Xuyan exhaled, picked up another piece of braised pork and stuffed it into her mouth, and then tasted a few other dishes.

The happiest thing about eating with my parents is that the dishes are what they like to eat.

There is also the joy and comfort of being with the family.

After eating, the shopkeeper brought tea, preserves and snacks, and they sat by the floor window and looked at the scenery outside.

Xu Yaoyao said: "Later, we are going to go to the pagoda for a walk." ”

"Oh?" Cui Jingshi looked at the pagoda in the distance, "I remember that when I was young, I passed by the pagoda with my provincial mother, and my mother took me to make a wish. At that time, I made a wish. He turned his head to look at Luo Xuyan, "Ah Yan wants to know what his wish is?" ”

Luo Xuyan patted the back of his hand and said helplessly: "I heard that people say that if you say your wish, it won't work." ”

"However, this wish has been fulfilled, and I think I can already say it." Cui Jingshi said with a smile.

Luo Xuyan looked at him and felt that this guy was talking nonsense again, but the words were all said and done, and it would not work if he didn't continue, so he had to ask stubbornly, "What is that?" ”

Cui Jingshi said: "My wish will meet the woman I love." ”

Xu Yaoyao listened, and Luo Banghao looked at each other and smiled.

"......" Luo Xuyan secretly pinched Cui Jingshi's arm, this guy is really getting more and more outrageous, has he forgotten that the relationship between them is maintained by a contract? What's the point of always saying these love words?

She pursed her lips and said, "This wish is too easy to come true. As you are, you've seen all kinds of girls, and you'll always meet your beloved. ”

"No, it's not easy." Cui Jingshi said seriously.
