Lu Shiqing opened his face tensely and left Zichen Palace. He followed Yuan Cixian without saying a word. He arrived at Kuanchuo's palace all the way. Seeing her suddenly stop, he turned around and asked with a smile: "Mr. Lu, where are we going?"
He raised his eyelids: "Happy the county lord."
Yuan Cixian pondered for a while: "Would you like to go to your mansion? I'm the happiest way."
“…”
Seeing that his eyes turned a little cold, she quickly said, "I'm joking with you." After that, she continued to walk forward.
Lu Shiqing followed, and after a while, she stopped again. She turned her head and raised her face to his ear and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Lu, there is a question. I want to ask you for advice for a long time, but I have never had a chance. It is rumored outside that you are not good at women and like men. Is it true or false?"
If it is true, tell her early, and she will not waste any effort.
Lu Shiqing turned his head, flew over with a knife, and saw that she was about to touch his chin, and said with silence: "My lord, your makeup seems to be shaking on my shoulder."
He was used to being poisonous and wanted to say something ugly on purpose, so that she could be respectful, but unexpectedly, her face was thicker than the wall, and she would not retreat but advance. However, she was frozen for a moment and said with a smile: "Oh, sorry, I'll blow it clean for you."
As he said that, he blew a few symbolically at his slime-of-white strips on his shoulder.
These breaths accurately sprayed Lu Shiqing's earlobe. His pupils shrank, and he shook his itchy. He subconsciously avoided a step outside, looking embarrassed.
Yuan Cixian was stunned. She was unwilling to be beaten by him for a few words, so she did something shameless, not expecting the effect to be so unexpected. She raised her eyes and stared at his ear with a suspicious blush, and suddenly felt that he didn't need to answer.
She knew the answer.
She clapped her hands in a good mood: "Blow it clean, Mr. Lu, let's go."
...
Yuan Cixian said she wanted to go to the West Market.
In the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was an emperor who stipulated that officials above the fifth rank were not allowed to enter the market in order to prevent collusion between officials and businessmen. Later, the rules gradually became loose, and now there are no clear regulations. It is just that an official ran to the market and was targeted by someone who was interested and sued, which may still cause suspicion.
Although Lu Shiqing was young, he had saved up a basket of political enemies. He couldn't help but suspect that Yuan Cixian wanted to do something bad.
Of course, he was fearless.
The west city of Chang'an is quite prosperous, with lots of ​​travels and strange goods. The streets are crowded with crowds of people. In addition to ordinary people, there are also many business trips, including foreign tourists from afar.
Yuan Cixian hasn't been here for seven years.
When she got nearby, she saw a caravan stopping in front of the gate of the shop, and was stopped by a young gatekeeper and refused to go in. The leader was negotiating with him, and his expression was unhappy when he spoke.
The clerk was also young and energetic, yelling to unbox and inspect the goods.
The two sides were in a stalemate, and the road entrance was blocked to death. She was impatient and called the carriage to stop and ordered the maid to stay here. She walked forward first and leaped into the crowd like a fish.
Lu Shiqing sat in a carriage behind him. Seeing this, he followed her down and walked behind her side, blocking left and right with difficulty to avoid touching the people pushing around.
When the two arrived near the Fangmen, the stalemate in front ended.
An old official rushed over and gave the young man a chestnut: "You dare to stop the people of the Ji family in Wuxing! If you delay the business of noble people, can you afford it?"
After hearing this, Yuan Cixian turned around and asked curiously: "Mr. Lu, what is the origin of the Wuxing Ji family?"
Lu Shiqing sideways to avoid a sweaty vendor and takes the time to answer her: "The famous silk shop in Jiangnan has produced treasures to the palace, and the reputation is good in Chang'an."
He was absent-minded when he said this, and he didn't even look at Yuan Cixian, his eyes were on the caravan's goods.
She looked at him and then the group of people, and asked strangely: "Do you like the silk of the Ji family?"
Lu Shiqing withdrew his gaze and did not answer.
Yuan Cixian didn't care much, so he continued to walk in and went around to a snack shop. There were a few big words about flying dragons and phoenixes on the plaque of the shop: Xiao Ji Wonton.
She first stepped into the store, picked up a small square table next to the window and sat down, waved to Lu Shiqing who was standing there, signaled him to sit opposite him, and then called the waiter and ordered two bowls of wontons.
Lu Shiqing stepped forward, lowered his eyes and looked at the bench in front of him, but he did not move for a long time.
Seeing this, Yuan Cixian pulled out a brocade handkerchief from her sleeve, got up and wiped his bench, and then said, "Mr. Lu, please sit down?"
He glanced at her indifferently, probably not thinking that her veil was so clean, but he still forced himself to sit down.
Yuan Cixian put away the brocade handkerchief and returned to her seat.
After two bowls of wontons were brought up, Lu Shiqing looked down and frowned and said, "I..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted: "I know you don't eat." Yuan Cixian smiled and glanced at the many diners around, "I want to eat two bowls, but I'm sorry, can you cover it up for me?"
Lu Shiqing didn't say anything, looked at the two bowls of wontons on the square table with disgust and turned his head out the window.
Yuan Cixian buried her head and started eating.
The white porcelain bowl was filled with green green green onions, which was fragrant. The wonton skin was smooth and the meat filling was fat but not greasy. She ate it happily in one bite. After a while, she emptied a bowl without even a drop of soup. After a while, she quickly put the empty bowl in front of Lu Shiqing, and adjusted it to his position, and a series of movements were completed in one go.
Lu Shiqing was too lazy to talk, just pretended that he didn't see it, and continued to look out the window to see a guy from a dessert shop steaming buns.
He has been in Chang'an for many years, but he rarely comes to Xishi to avoid suspicion. He has never had time to see such a scene. Now he just used it to pass the time.
A tray of steamed buns was out of the cage, and the heat was filled with mist. One by one, could be seen lying on the tray, soft and tender from a distance.
When Lu Shiqing looked at the steamed buns, Yuan Cixian was watching him. She was slightly full in her belly, and she was much slower to eat the second bowl. She looked at him when she had nothing to do.
The noble girl from the Great Zhou Dynasty looked very picky in her eyes, her face should be handsome and elegant, but not feminine, and her body should be upright and tough, but not rough.
Looking at the man opposite, his face is like a jade crown, his lips are like red vermilion, his facial features are deep and angular. He is tall and solid, but he is definitely not as big as three thick, but as tall as he has measured it. Especially when he is a narrow waist, he is pinched by the golden jade belt, it looks quite thorny.
To be fair, Yuan Cixian felt that Lu Shiqing's skin satisfies all the fantasies of the Chang'an lady.
As for her, it's quite a bit of food anyway.
When Lu Shiqing looked away from the bun shop, he happened to catch a glimpse of Yuan Cixian's straight look.
She actually stared at his waist while drinking soup...and looked at his waist?
A string in his head buzzed, and he was stunned. He felt like an ant slowly crawling across his lower abdomen, it was itchy and numb, and his scalp was about to explode. He couldn't help but straighten his chest and hold his abdomen, and sat upright. After that, he felt something was wrong. He wanted to cover it up, but he was suffering from nothing at hand, so he had to stare at her.
Yuan Cixian was unaware of it, staring at his waist while chewing with relish.
Lu Shiqing couldn't bear it anymore and said, "I dare to ask the county lord, are you eating wontons or..."
Or...eat him!
Yuan Cixian didn't notice the anger in his eyes, and was stunned for a moment when he yelled, and half of the wonton hung on his mouth.
Fortunately, she had a good mentality and didn't choke. Under his burning gaze, she slowly stuffed half of the wonton into her mouth, chewed, swallowed it, and pointed at herself and asked, "Don't I... look like I'm eating wontons?"
Lu Shiqing was choking and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a voice coming from behind: "...Yes, my old lady wants a bowl of wontons, please add more chopped green onions."
He suddenly stiffened all over and turned around subconsciously.
Yuan Cixian was confused, so he followed her and looked over. The so-called "old lady" there noticed their eyes and was also a puzzled person and raised her head.
All the six eyes are facing each other.
The person who came was Xuan.
Yes, Lu Shiqing remembered it. This Xiaoji Wonton is a time-honored brand in Chang'an. It was praised by the Emperor. Not only ordinary people, but also many noble people love their tastes for ten minutes. They often come here to visit or hire masters to come. His mother is also a regular customer of this shop.
His face suddenly became subtle. The expression of Xuan's opposite was also very complicated. He was shocked first, then suddenly realized, and then showed a little...exciting?
What's exciting?
Yuan Cixian was confused. After thinking about the appearance of the two of them, he finally got back to the taste.
Lu Shiqing glanced at Yuan Cixian, stood up and walked towards Xuan, and whispered: "My grandma, you just want to eat wontons and ask the servants to come, why are you still...?"
Xuan was here to buy autumn clothes for him, and after that, she came here to eat a bowl of wontons. But she didn't want to answer him at this moment. Seeing him standing in front of him blocking Yuan Cixian, she waved her hand to signal him not to the eye and said, "Go away and what are you doing when you block my mother!"
Lu Shiqing said with a headache: "Don't get me wrong..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard a crisp voice behind him: "Mrs. Lu, are you looking for me?" Yuan Cixian tilted her body and poked her head out from behind and looked at Xuan with a smile.
Lu Shiqing moved and blocked her again: "My grandma, please go back to your house first."
Yuan Cixian stood up, walked around him and came to Xuan's family: "Mrs. Lu, you probably don't recognize me, I am Cixian of the Yuan family."
She claimed that she had no airs. When Xuan saw someone, her eyes lit up and nodded, "I have seen the Lord of Lancang County."
She waved her hand and said, "Just call me Cixian." After that, she reached out and pointed her hand and said, "Are you here to sit with me and Mr. Lu?"
Xuan nodded and glanced at his son who was despised: "That old man is not polite."
She followed Yuan Cixian and sat down on a bench, her eyes swept the empty bowl on the table, her face showed surprise, and she looked back at her son.
Of course Lu Shiqing knew what she was wondering. He had never used the dishes and chopsticks outside, so naturally he could not make an exception because of Yuan Cixian. He hurriedly came forward and explained: "No... mother, these are all..."
"Mr. Lu accompanied me around the streets and alleys, and I was so hungry." Yuan Cixian explained in a black and white way.
Lu Shiqing looked at her with her back teeth, knowing that she felt embarrassed to eat two bowls of wontons in one breath. After enduring it, she would not expose her in person. She took a deep breath and left her alone.
Xuan looked at his son and then at Yuan Cixian, and his smile became even stronger.
Yuan Cixian didn't take off her chopsticks first, and waited for Xuan's wontons to be brought up before she said to her: "Mrs. Lu, do you also like chopped green onions?"
Lu Shiqing glanced at her in a bad way. This was almost too obvious. She coaxed Emperor Huining with a clever mouth, and was still going to coax his mother?
The Bian Xuan family was like Emperor Huining. She didn't realize that she was deliberately talking to each other and nodded with a smile: "Yes, this soup must be combined with the chopped green onion to make it fragrant."
Yuan Cixian wrinkled her nose, as if she was sniffing something, and asked afterwards: "But you don't seem to eat ginger?"
Xuan was a little surprised: "How does the county lord know?"
"I smelled it, there was no ginger in your wonton filling."
Lu Shiqing turned his head, looked down at the bowl of wontons, and frowned. Xuan did not touch ginger. But the wontons were covered so tightly and the scent of scallions was also covered with strong smell. She had never come close to smell it, so how could she smell what was missing in the filling?
Could it be that he had secretly investigated his mother?
Xuan smiled: "The county lord is so inspiring."
Yuan Cixian smiled back to her: "You eat while it's hot." After that, he was probably afraid that she would be restrained, so he moved the chopsticks first.
Lu Shiqing sat silently, waiting for them to eat the wontons and say goodbye eagerly, then said, "My grandma, I still have a toll on my side, so I can't send you home."
When he said the word "tolerance", he glanced at Yuan Cixian with a heavy glance.
But Xuan didn't seem to understand, and looked at his son with a look of relief, looking like "My mother is a person who has experienced it, understand it."
Lu Shiqing held her forehead and sent her away. He turned around and saw Yuan Cixian smiling at her, showing impatience on her face.
But she said indifferently: "Mr. Lu, I'm so full that I'm so full. Can you accompany me to the streets and stroll?"
He wanted to say that she had eaten twenty-four wontons, how could she not hold on? Due to the sacred order, she still endured it and signaled her to invite her first, and then followed her.
Chapter completed!
