Chapter Twenty-Two: Dressing Up as a Man

Women disguising themselves as men is really an ancient plot. Situ Xi always found it a bit unbelievable when he saw this kind of plot in story books.

Because if a woman puts on men's clothing, she can easily be distinguished by her appearance, not to mention her voice and living habits. In addition, people in ancient times were relatively conservative. Anyway, they didn't really believe that there was such a thing.

Many examples of disguise.

But it wasn't until this moment that Situ Xi understood what it means that art comes from life.

This face...this voice...move your eyes slightly, this...

Cough, such poor disguise skills!

But she is quite tall, even taller than Qingyu.

"Ah, secret books on mental techniques. They are mostly methods for training the body. I also read them in story books. It is said that if you practice to high and deep levels, you can move mountains, fill seas, and become flying immortals... But they are all fairy tales and monsters.

The anecdotes cannot be taken seriously.”

"Moving mountains and filling seas, transforming into flying immortals..." The woman murmured for a moment.

"Brother, please don't believe what this old Taoist says. The so-called 'fate' is mostly an illusion caused by the combination of probability and human factors." Situ Xi looked at the woman on the table again and asked.

If you wish to sign a lucky draw, remind him verbally so that he will not be deceived in the future.

"Probability? Factor?" The woman became even more confused.

"Anyway, brother, don't believe this liar again." Situ Xi thought that today's meeting was interesting, so he got up and chatted with her, "I wonder what your name is, brother? And why did you come to him to ask for an autograph?"

"I'm Chen Zhi." This person is Chen Zhisu.

Chen Zhi? Situ Xi recited it in his mind, it seemed like the name of a drink.

"My brother-in-law felt cold and wanted to eat some pastries, so I went out for a walk and brought some back to him. I was stopped by this Taoist priest when I was passing by this alleyway. I thought I could ask him what delicious food was nearby, so I paid him the price.

After receiving the money, I asked for a sign."

This was her nonsense. If Chen Pu wanted to eat some cakes, he would have a lot of servants to buy them for him. Chen Zhisu was just too boring to stay in the palace, and he only finished shopping yesterday.

city, so I came to the West Market today to have a look.

So that's it. I think the old Taoist priest saw the gorgeous brocade robe on this girl and decided to make a fortune from her. She was disguised as a man and dressed in brocade, and she wasn't very familiar with the shops in the West Market.

, maybe the daughter of some family came here to experience life.

"Brother, you can go to Yupan Street and have a look. Most of the nearby famous restaurants are there." Situ Xi didn't invite her to the sake restaurant. Firstly, he didn't know this person very well and wanted to chat with her.

Simply because I thought it was a bit novel for her to dress up as a man, and secondly, the sake restaurant was most likely closed to customers, and they were preparing for a competition recently.

"I don't know how to get to Yupan Street. Brother, can you show me the way?"

"That's...ok, actually that's where I'm going."



When he arrived at Yupan Street, Situ Xi said goodbye to Chen Zhisu, but he suddenly found that the girl didn't go to any store, and just followed him from a distance. What did she want to do?

I don't understand, and I'm too lazy to think about it. I'd better ask Lao Zhangtou if he has any good news.

The door of the sake restaurant has been closed. The restaurant is actually not small, with two floors high, but now it seems a bit deserted. Situ Xi knew that there was someone there, so he rolled up his sleeves and gently opened the door with his right hand.

There's a knock on the door.

"Old Zhangtou, it's me, what's the result of the pre-selection?"

"Yu'er, hurry up, hurry up, open the door for Brother Xi, Brother Xi, wait a moment, Lao Zhuo will come down right away."

As soon as Situ Xi finished speaking, the familiar voice of shopkeeper Zhang came from the railing on the second floor above the restaurant. His voice was full of joy at this moment. After he finished shouting, Situ Xi heard the sound of rapid footsteps coming from upstairs.

He should be running downstairs quickly.

The door of the restaurant was opened for Situ Xi. Zhang Yu'er saw that Situ Xi was alone and hurriedly waved him into the store.

"Sir, dad was still talking about you just now. Today we have prepared some new snacks. You are here to taste them for us. Brother Feng also happened to be in the restaurant. He also helped us yesterday.

"

"I've met you, sir." Upon hearing Situ Xi's arrival, Mu Feng also came out to greet him and saluted him.

"Oh? So it seems that you have successfully entered the main meeting?" Nodding towards Mu Feng, Situ Xi asked Zhang Yu'er again. Since they are preparing new dishes, they should have passed the pre-selection.

"Brother Xi, thanks to you, Lao Zhuo's restaurant not only entered the Zhenghui, but also won the first place in the nearby street!" After hearing this, Lao Zhangtou, who ran downstairs, hurriedly ran to Situ with joy.

In front of Xi, when he walked to the door, he felt sorry for himself and said: "Brother Xi, I am a bit stupid. I didn't ask you for your address last time. When I asked this boy Mu, he refused to reveal your address.

News, you are finally here today, and I have prepared a lot of sumptuous dishes for you, which will definitely make you enjoy your meal."

He glanced at Mu Feng standing aside again. This child was really sensible, filial, polite, and quite intelligent.

"First place? Spring food party?"

An unexpected and unfamiliar voice suddenly interrupted, and Lao Zhangtou was startled. He turned around and saw that there was another young man standing next to Situ Xi at some point.

"Brother Xi, who is this?"

"Why are you following me? This restaurant is closed." Situ Xi found that the girl named Chen Zhi was still following him, and he was a little confused. Wasn't she going to buy pastries?

"Brother, I actually have something to ask you." Chen Zhisu was a little interested in Situ Xi, and wanted to know where he heard the story of "moving mountains and filling seas" he just mentioned.

of.

"Brother Xi, since we are acquaintances, if you have any questions, why don't we all go to the restaurant to discuss it later? One more person can help us taste it. It's a little cold outside later, so it's much warmer in the store."

Zhang Tou asked the two of them to come to the store first, and it was not polite to let the distinguished guests wait at the door.

"That's okay, she actually wants some desserts, and when it comes to pastries, yours is the most delicious restaurant nearby."

"Brother Xi is so complimentary."

"Brother, how about we go into the store and talk for a while? You heard me too, this old Zhangtou's craftsmanship is guaranteed." Situ Xi turned to Chen Zhisu and asked.

"What I wish for."

In fact, Situ Xi was still a little surprised. Didn't anyone else realize that this young master was a girl except himself? Isn't this a little too slow?
