Shao Shao struggled with his strange emotions, not knowing what to say, what to ask, thinking about what he wanted to confirm. The tangled was a quagmire, and after she finished drinking, she felt dizzy and dizzy, and her head was more dizzy and heavier. She forced herself to prop herself up, as if she were walking on her own skeleton, slow and stiff. She moved herself from the restaurant to the inn step by step. She lay her body down, her heart lay down, and she slept completely unconscious for an afternoon, a night. When she opened her eyes in the early morning, she felt that she didn't know whether she was asleep or awake, she walked to the window, and looked out of the window, just in time to see Meiyue Mountain standing in the west of Qianmen Town, black, a behemoth. The light in the early hours of the morning was faint and could not penetrate the fog that hung over the mountains.

"Now that I have time, it's better to go to the restaurant and get to know it clearly. Shao Shao walked to the front of the Red Fire Restaurant, and it was still early to see him, and the door was closed. Shao Shao knew that there was a back door behind the restaurant, and the restaurant had to buy vegetables and wash vegetables early in the morning to prepare ingredients, so Shao Shao bypassed, and sure enough, the side door was open, and several domestic servants were washing vegetables and cutting kelp shreds there. She dodged in. There is no change in the restaurant, the side door is in front of the restaurant, and to the right is the residence of his family in the past. She tiptoed down the familiar path. The bedroom door in the main hall was closed, and the window panes were replaced with covered window paper, and light was shining through the window paper. "Why haven't you slept yet?" Shao Shao couldn't help but poke through the window paper, and looked inside, it was the "butcher", lit a candle and didn't know who to talk to, the man was wearing a red dress, sitting there, and there was a small guy standing next to him. Shaoshao always felt that this person was very familiar, and when she turned around, she was startled, and Shaoshao covered her mouth, isn't this person Hongling?

Why?

Why is Hongling here? Why does Hongling know the "butcher"? Why is Hongling here in the early morning? How did they meet and what did they say? Shaoshao had too many questions in his heart, but he couldn't ask them.

"Who?" Hongling was very alert, and motioned with her eyes for the little guy to check it. Shao Shao dodged sideways to the side, avoiding the sight of the little guy. The little guy came out and looked around, then shrank back and closed the door gently.

"Boss, I have already handed over the income of the restaurant to Elder Yu this month, except for paying staff expenses and some daily expenses, there are account books, and the head can take them back for careful inspection. He showed his loyalty to Hongling.

"I trust Elder Yu very much, and I also want to see the backbone of the Meiyue Sect alone, I have never doubted it, and Chief Zou doesn't have to think about it. Hongling smiled faintly.

When Lao Zou heard this, he straightened up and bowed to Hongling: "Thank you for your trust." ”

Hongling didn't pick up the account and leave, but asked lightly and slightly: "This restaurant used to be a young man's family?" The butcher was stunned for a moment, and said: "That's true, at that time, every envoy of the Meiyue Sect needed a monthly payment. Nine out of ten of the large and small shops in this Qianmen Town are among our Meiyue Sect Chief. This Honghuo Restaurant was an accident, when Lu Chang made it to this shop in the gambling house, it was we who included this restaurant in the Meiyue Sect. ”

Hongling sighed deeply, "That being the case, Wu Dao, you bring these accounts back." Zou Chang envoy, don't send it. Hongling stood up, avoided everyone and walked out of the restaurant with Wu Dao. Shaoshao was already ignorant in her heart, she didn't know how she brought herself back to the inn, she just felt that life was a wine, drunk is naturally better than sober, what to say to forgive, what to say, life is a comedy face, painted as a dan, that is a sword and horse, full of disputes, swords and swords. Turning into a life, he is an old student, full of worries, and a person who is about to die. Life is a voice, singing is babbling, listening to haha, talking a lot, but it is meaningful and meaningless. Make it in tune, draw it into a score. What is the name in my heart, but a pool of blood is dripping, what kind of pain. Eat and drink, live a good life, and enjoy pure happiness.

Shao Shao returned to the inn and packed up the affairs left to her by the master before his death, it turned out that the person who should have wandered the world a long time ago was herself, not the master.

She didn't go to Meiyue Mountain, and lived the rest of her life undisturbed, with the portrait of her master, thinking about the old days, and using the skills taught by her master to feed her life. Just alive!

After so many years, I didn't want to think about Hongling but suddenly wanted to recruit apprentices in Niuxi Town, and I was also old, thinking that I still had to find someone to talk to. So he called Luoluo to participate in the food competition. When I saw Hongling, I didn't ask, but I saw Yuebai, with a little girl, and told myself that the chili pepper was dead and the wonderful fragrance was gone. She didn't know how to face the news, and in the face of Yuebai, she had to ask Luoluo to take Yuebai and the child to rest, but she was basking in the sun there, basking in the sun until the sun turned west, until the sun could no longer shine on her.

She walked slowly into the room, it was an old woman, no longer a young woman, the corners of her eyes were already fine, but the black hair was a hood, and when she took it off, her hair was thin, some were white, and some of the silver threads were still a little black. She lit a kerosene lamp, in front of the portrait of the Master, on the table, next to the mat. He also lit a few incense sticks, knelt in front of the portrait, and said nothing. She didn't speak, and she didn't think about talking to Yuebai.

Yuebai and Du Juan followed Luo Luo around and around, and when they arrived in front of a small building, Luo Luo said: "Senior sister, this is where I live with Orange Orange, there are many rooms, you and Du Juan can choose one to live in at will." Yuebai casually entered a house and asked Luoluo: "Senior sister, the master has been in good health in the past few years. Luoluo was veiled and never took it off, with a smile in the corner of his eyes: "Senior sister, you see that Master is not old at all, many people think that he is about the same age as us." "Also, Master has not changed much from more than ten years ago. Yuebai laughed. "Senior sister, you and Du Juan have a good rest, if you need anything, you can tell the maid, I am also in the next room. Luoluo turned around, walked out, and brought the door. Yuebai sat there, always thinking about the master's expression, and after a long time, he didn't see the master coming to look for him, "Could it be that the things in the store are too busy?" Yuebai shook his head, "There are masters in the store who are busy." Or I'll go find Master. Yuebai thought about it, and walked out, but he didn't know where the master was, so he wanted to ask Luoluo, raised his hand, but didn't knock on the door, and put it down again. "Let's wait for Master to come to me, maybe Master is grieving the death of Chili. Yuebai thought about it, and went back to his room.
