The air seemed to freeze, Liu Dadao was silent for a long time, and his face became more and more gloomy. The two looked at each other, one with a calm face and the other with a smug smile.

Fifth sister-in-law Song looked at him, and then looked at her, her heart was pounding,

Liu Dadao is a person whose heart is higher than the sky, how can he make him bow down to a woman? This question hovered in the hearts of Mo Yunxiao, Liu Dadao and Song Wu's sister-in-law at the same time.

"The matter of the big girl, I have taken it on my shoulder." Suddenly, Yuan Lu's words passed through the quiet night like a sharp arrow. The three of them were shocked and looked sideways.

Mo Yunxiao's eyes were filled with layers of suspicion, and she looked him up and down, with a suspicious tone: "Just you?" ”

"I ......" Yuan Lu was a little cramped, he came here with a mortal heart, and he never thought of suddenly being exempted.

His mood was stirring in this fierce storm, so he blurted out the above sentence.

Liu Dadao's head tilted slightly towards him, and he said with a smile: "Yuan Lu is the rich man of our beggar gang, and the reason why the brothers can gain a foothold in this Tokyo city is all due to the favor of the rich man Yuan. ”

"Tuantou, I'm ......" Yuan Lu still wanted to speak, but Liu Dadao raised his hand to stop his words.

"In the city of Tokyo, Yuan Lu has three pharmacies, a medical center, seven or eight tailor shops and a tea stall." Liu Dadao treasured Yuan Lu's belongings: "I am still waiting for the day when I will ascend the throne as an official, and I will be a salt and iron transfer envoy for the rich man Yuan." ”

He walked up to Yuan Lu, patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said, "Miss Mo spared you from dying, and you deserve your share of your dedication." However, this favor is not only owed by you, it is owed by our beggar gang. He turned to Mo Yunxiao again and said, "Miss Mo, in this Tokyo city in the future, you can come to me if you have something difficult." I'll definitely help. ”

"I'm so thankful for the group. My shop ......"

Liu Dadao smiled and said, "Yuan is the rich man, and I don't understand business. He laughed and walked out laughing. Fifth sister-in-law Song shrank to the side and made way for Liu Dadao.

Yuan Lu also gave a formal salute, thanked Mo Yunxiao again for saving his life, and quickly chased after him with the two beggars.

Mo Yunxiao also looked back and saw the backs of several of them and the fifth sister-in-law Song who was standing on the side and was a little timid.

"Fifth sister-in-law, did they scare you?" Mo Yunxiao asked with a smile.

Fifth sister-in-law Song shook her head, and her hanging heart finally let go.

She also smiled and said, "'I'd rather touch Kaifeng Mansion than Mo Yunxiao; I'd rather eat three buckets of vinegar than Mohelu'. Who doesn't know that your big girl is a female demon king of the world. ”

Mo Yunxiao laughed and said, "Okay, okay, fifth sister-in-law, don't make fun of me." I've seen the people you asked me to meet, can you take me to eat fish soup? ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song took Mo Yunxiao's hand with a smile and said, "Let's go, fifth sister-in-law will take you to eat fish." ”

The two of them walked out of the backyard hand in hand, walked through the bustling kitchen, and went upstairs together.

However, Fifth Sister-in-law Song did not take her to the private room of the Mo family, but went in the opposite direction.

They passed through a small corridor and came to the depths of the Fan Tower, but fortunately there were lights on the walls, so that the light and shadow could still be seen in the dark corridor.

At the end of the corridor was still a staircase, and Song Wu's sister-in-law took her up with her, and went straight to the top of the third floor. They stopped at the door of a rather chic room.

Mo Yunxiao took a look, but saw that although the carvings of the doors and windows of this room could not be called carved beams and paintings, they were also very exquisite, with two big red lanterns hanging at the door, and a small incense burner by the window. Mo Yunxiao sniffed the fragrance carefully.

"This room is very different." Mo Yunxiao smiled and asked, "This is the boudoir of the fifth sister-in-law, right?" ”

"Oh, a rough woman who cooks on the fire, how can she be called a boudoir." As she spoke, Fifth Sister-in-law Song gently pushed the door open and took her in.

The layout of the room is also very distinct, with flowers and birds and calligraphy; On the left hand side is a hollow carved screen, on the right hand side is a suite, with gauze curtains hanging on both sides, inside is a long table with delicate tea sets on it, and in the middle is a round table for eating; Directly opposite are two hanging windows, supported by supporting wood, and you can look out over the city.

Because the tower is the tallest building in Tokyo, you can usually look down from here, but you can see the lights and the various crowds of people and cars and horses.

There is also the Nazhou Bridge, where the Taiping cart and the mule cart run in parallel, and the horses and pedestrians are on the wrong shoulder. What a bustling streetscape it was.

But today, Mo Yunxiao stood at the window and looked out, only to see the empty street, the black hole of the Wuzhan River, as if the sound of the surging river water lapping on the riverbed she could hear with her own ears.

"It's too cold today, so close the window." Fifth Sister-in-law Song's voice came from behind her.

Mo Yunxiao looked back and saw Cao's mother and two little maids holding trays standing in front of the table. Cao's mother set up a small stove on the dining table, and the fire was blazing, roasting the fish in the tray. The smell of fish is overflowing. "Yo! There are fish to eat. Mo Yunxiao walked over happily.

"Miss Mo, not only do you have fish to eat today, but you also have good wine to drink." Mother Cao took out a pot of wine and two small cups from the tray of the first little girl behind her, put them on the table, and said with a smile: "This is the chalcedony of Changfeng Building, which is never taken out, it is Changfeng Lou who is willing to sell these taels because he looks at the face of our fifth sister-in-law." And ......"

Mother Cao turned around and brought a small cage drawer from the tray of the second servant and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "This is the soup dumplings of Yulou, but it is too late, so I can only buy these few, and I have the right to give Miss Mo a taste." ”

After finishing speaking, Cao's mother took the little maid to the inner room and said, "There is good tea here, I will ask the little maid to sit on the water, and I will also invite the girl to taste a good tea later." ”

"Okay, I'll talk to Helu alone, Mother Cao, you guys go out first." Fifth sister-in-law Song said gently, and Cao's mother answered, and went out with the little girl, not forgetting to close the door.

Mo Yunxiao's stomach was already growling.

She was not polite, she sat down and picked up the chopsticks and ate the fish. Fifth sister-in-law Song sat opposite her and said, "Helu, sister-in-law, I am really impressed with you, I didn't expect you to go deep into the tiger's den and bring down King Jian, a swinger." ”

Mo Yunxiao's chopsticks suddenly paused, and her good mood was immediately discounted. She thought of the beautiful and short-lived relationship between herself and Zhao Ru, and couldn't help but feel sad.

She didn't speak, just poured herself a glass of wine, then threw her neck up and drank it all. This wine is mellow and fragrant, indescribably smooth, fragrant but not greasy, spicy but not strong, and a cup of belly makes Mo Yunxiao's spirit shocked.

She wiped the corners of her mouth and said, "I'd rather not bring him down." ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song nodded with a smile and said with emotion: "Yes." King Jian is suave and suave, and he is a good man. Alas, marriage has been difficult to determine since ancient times, and there are many confusing ones, Helu, you are kind-hearted, and you have the style of being chivalrous, the Buddha must also bless you to find a good marriage. ”

Mo Yunxiao's chopsticks poked around on the fried fish and asked, "Did the fifth sister-in-law call me to save me to give me relief?" ”

"Not really." Fifth sister-in-law Song smiled and said, "I invited you to come, first, I admire you for doing such a big thing as a daughter, sister-in-law, I am envious." I'll toast you with this glass of wine. As she spoke, she filled both of her cups with wine, and then raised her glasses and drank them.

"It's a good wine, indeed." Mo Yunxiao praised.

Fifth sister-in-law Song was even happier, opened the small cage drawer, picked up a small soup bag with chopsticks and handed it to Mo Yunxiao in the bowl, and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, try the craftsmanship of the soup dumpling master in Yulou." ”

Mo Yunxiao took the small bowl, picked up the soup bag and took a bite gently. Just one bite, the juice of the soup bag splashed everywhere and almost squirted out.

Mo Yunxiao was a little embarrassed, and suddenly thought of the 'peeing cow pills' in Stephen Chow's movie "God of Food".

Fifth sister-in-law Song couldn't help but laugh and said, "Eat slowly, the soup dumplings in this Yulou are like this, you have to chew and swallow slowly." ”

Taste this soup, the meat flavor is mixed with the aroma of osmanthus, and the meat filling of the bun has the strength of beef, and can taste the delicacy of mutton, and it is even more rare to have the umami of river fish.

These textures and flavors blend together without giving a sense of intricacies, but rather with an eclectic mixture. Mo Yunxiao tasted it again and again, and couldn't help nodding and praised: "Yulou soup dumplings are worthy of their reputation." ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song nodded with a smile and said, "The wine in Changfeng Building, the soup dumplings in Yulou, the fish in our Fan Mansion and the tea in your tea building are all known to everyone in this Tokyo city. Let's get together these four famous foods and drinks, but I'm afraid that the official family has not done this. ”

Mo Yunxiao looked at the good wine and food on this table, and then looked at the kind smile of Song Wu's sister-in-law opposite.

There was a common saying in her heart: "Nothing to be courteous or a thief." However, as soon as the thought came to her, she shook her head irritably, and let it dissipate into the air.

Song Wu's sister-in-law and herself are very good friends, even if there has been an unhappiness in retiring from marriage and merging stores, but after all, it is all in the past, and now that she is in trouble, Song Wu's sister-in-law is generous to help, if she guesses others again, wouldn't it really be the heart of a villain.

"Fifth sister-in-law, this table of good dishes is too rich." Mo Yunxiao said: "I have no merit, and I am really a little uneasy to eat your good things for nothing." ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song glanced at her eyebrows, patted her arm lightly, and scolded with a smile: "You little fox is also poor, who doesn't know that you Mo Yunxiao is a guy who is only willing to take advantage of others and never suffers." Why did you suddenly change your sex today? ’

Mo Yunxiao smiled faintly and said, "That's not true. It's just that sister-in-law, you are an understanding person. Don't speak secret words in front of the bright. Today, my sister-in-law invited me to this big meal, but it was not just for me to be scared and washed. ”

"What? Do you think it's a Hongmen feast? Fifth sister-in-law Song smiled.

Mo Yunxiao was startled, slapped her chopsticks on the table, stood up and said, "No, no, no, sister-in-law, don't be careful, I have never thought about it like this." ”

Song Wu's sister-in-law Gege laughed. She took Mo Yunxiao's hand and sat down, and said, "I'm just telling a joke, don't be serious." Actually, sister-in-law, I also have a big gift for you. In the face of this big gift, these wines, vegetables, fish and meat are nothing. ”

"Oh?" Mo Yunxiao's eyes flashed with a strange light.

Fifth sister-in-law Song got up calmly, walked around behind the screen, picked up a small box in front of the dresser and folded it back. She put the small box in Mo Yunxiao's hand and said, "You open it and take a look for yourself." ”

Mo Yunxiao was stunned for a moment, and then opened the box as she said. Inside was a folded piece of paper, like some kind of paperwork. She still didn't know what to do, so she opened the document and took a look, only to see the two big characters "house deed" on the book.

Mo Yunxiao was taken aback, and looked at Fifth Sister-in-law Song with wide eyes. Fifth sister-in-law Song smiled slightly, took the contract, and said, "Look, this is the deed of your tea house." I redeemed it for you. ”

"Fifth sister-in-law, what are you doing here?" Mo Yunxiao asked in a trembling voice.

Fifth sister-in-law Song smiled and said, "Silly girl, what else can I do." The tea house is your father's property, and it must not be destroyed so easily. I will return this deed to you, and Minglou's surname is still Mo. ”

Mo Yunxiao was stunned for a moment, then Huo Di stood up and said, "The fifth sister-in-law is so gracious, how can our Mo family afford it." ”

"Well, there's nothing you can't afford to afford." Song Wu's sister-in-law sighed and said, "Jiaxing was sorry for you and hurt your reputation before, and I ...... as a sister-in-law."

"Fifth sister-in-law, let's not mention this matter." Mo Yunxiao paused for a moment before saying, "I'm not good either, Jiaxing is a well-informed son, but I'm ...... Alas, I only know how to dance knives and guns, I am a man, people call me a female Yama, but I am called Jiaxing Xiao Pan'an. We are unworthy. ”

Tears rolled in her eyes when she said this, and I didn't know whether she was moved or sentimental.

"Helu, don't say this, don't say this." Fifth sister-in-law Song was also moved, wiped a handful of tears heavily, and continued to choke and said: "I know that you are a good boy, what little Pan An, what female Yama, are all boring talk of prodigal children. I have always regarded you as my own sister, and I really hope that you and my family will prosper him...... Alas, that's it, it's all our family that is not prosperous and has failed you. ”

Mo Yunxiao also wiped a handful of tears and said, "I have no love for Jiaxing, so how can I live up to it." ”

"But you have a marriage contract." Fifth sister-in-law Song said so.

Mo Yunxiao lowered her head and smiled bitterly, and said, "Even if you are married, if you don't have love, you will always have to separate." ”

"Alas, the past will not be mentioned at all." Mo Yunxiao also poured wine for the two of them and said, "But I won't forget your great kindness, sister-in-law." ”

Fifth sister-in-law Song also smiled bitterly and said, "Helu, you mentioned the joint operation with me before, do you remember?" ”

"Remember, Co., Ltd., what's wrong?"

Song Wu's sister-in-law smiled and said, "I want to take the lead and unite Changfeng Building, Jade Building, Fan Building and Ming Building to set up a joint-stock limited liability company." ”

The tears in the corners of Mo Yunxiao's eyes hadn't finished yet, but when she heard this, she completely dried up in an instant.
