Su Che suddenly looked back when he heard the voice, and saw a beauty in palace dress with skin as white as snow looking at him with a smile.

There was a smile on her lips, and her clear eyes were like a deep pool, and it was impossible to tell what was hidden in her heart.

Is it a hidden longing or a carefully disguised lie?

Suche didn't know.

Do we know each other?

Listening to these familiar words, Su Che didn't take over many memories of his predecessor, and he really didn't have much impression of this lady in his mind.

It just feels inexplicably familiar.

Deja vu.

"Come here and let me take a look at you."

As she said this, she walked forward without any explanation, stretched out a pair of catkins and took his hand, which Suche couldn't refuse.

"Why are there so many calluses on your hands?"

Her eyes looked at her tiger's mouth and fingers, and she raised them to look at the sun that had not completely faded away.

"It's been very hard lately."

"fine."

Suche turned to look at the maid on the other side.

This Mrs. Wang, as she should be called, must be from a wealthy family. Marriage between wealthy families has always been about being well-matched. However, the behavior in front of her was a bit beyond the normal ethics.

But the maid in front of me seemed to be not surprised.

This Zhu Yan was not raised by the Langya Wang family.

"Look at me, why are you talking outside?"

She smiled and took Suche's hand.

"I made some of your favorite dishes."

The furnishings in this small Bajiao building are very elegant. There is a picture of plum trees hanging on the wall, several gorgeous bird feathers inserted in the ice-cracked celadon vase, and a light sandalwood incense burns in the copper furnace of the beast's foot.

In the center is a dining table with several dishes placed on it.

Sweet and sour fish, braised tofu with vegetables, diced chicken with mushrooms, shredded bamboo shoots and bacon, shredded tofu in chicken soup, and a bowl of winter melon ball soup.

In addition to these dishes, there is also a small bottle of rice wine and two wine glasses.

She pulled Su Che and refused to sit down. Instead, she stood in front of the door, turned around and raised her head to look at Su Che.

"Our Archer has really grown up, and we all have stubble. Speaking of which, my sister saw you riding a horse and holding a sword in the car that day, and she didn't even recognize you..."

She finally let go of Suche's hand and covered her mouth with a secret smile.

"I originally thought of going to Cizhou to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect to encounter many things in Tian'an County."

She looked at Su Che for a long time, causing Su Che to subconsciously avoid those eyes.

"Do you think this is fate? When I heard that Tiqi came to seal the city, I felt inexplicably happy."

"Oh, after talking so much, I didn't even ask you to eat, Archer."

She patted Suche's shoulder gently.

"Sister makes everything you like. I brought the vinegar for this sweet and sour fish from Xie's family. I added tangerine peel and mountain fruits when brewing it, so it has a fruity aroma."

"I didn't put much oil when frying the tofu. You like the burnt aroma of fried tofu and don't like the greasiness, so I spent a lot of effort."

"You like to eat thin mushrooms, so sister will tear them all into pieces. And this shredded bamboo shoots and bacon, don't you like to eat fatter ones? It's strange to say that you like to eat fatter bacon, but tofu doesn't.

I don’t like it.”

She walked over and gently opened the mud seal of the rice wine and poured the mellow wine into the cup.

"You like to eat winter melon and meatball soup. You said it goes with rice." She hesitated and her voice became softer: "This chicken soup with shredded tofu is my new recipe. I don't know if you like it or not."

silence.

Suche didn't know what to say for a moment.

This woman is married, does she still remember her own taste?

"Sit down quickly."

The lady took the rice bowl, filled a full bowl of rice for Suche and put it on the table.

Su Che suddenly discovered that there was a book with rough edges on the table: The Legend of the Dragon Girl.

"This book was the one you originally gave me."

The lady smiled and walked over to put the book away.

"In the past few years, I've been doing it whenever I have nothing to do."

Suche sat down at the dining table and looked at the steaming food on the table.

"Aren't you going to eat?"

She held her chin in her hands.

"I'll watch you eat."

Suche picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of sweet and sour fish, put it in his mouth and chewed it.

It tastes very good.

"Don't worry, eat it. There are no thorns. It won't hurt you like before. I asked Zhuer to use magic to remove all the fish bones."

The vinegar used in this sweet and sour fish dish is made by Xie Jia Brewing.

Su Che looked at her. This lady should be from the Xie family in Chen County.

The Wang family of Langya and the Xie family of Chenjun are quite right.

"I still remember the first time your eldest brother took you to my house." She watched Suche slowly eating vegetables there: "My cooking skills were terrible at that time, and they didn't want to eat. Only you were willing to eat."

"I thought you liked me at that time..."

This sentence was too suspenseful to send Suche away.

Are there any other stories like this?

But what he said next made Suche feel relieved.

"But you said that a real man is on an expedition and has to eat snow and drink ice. He can't even eat a few mouthfuls of rice. How can he conquer China?"

"They all laugh at you, but I know you are serious." She looked into Su Che's eyes: "So I am also serious. We little girls can't travel north to the Central Plains, but we can work hard to cook. Later, I always look for you.

Come and eat the food I cook, and no matter how unpalatable it is, you will be willing to eat it."

"It's all in the past."

"Yes, some time has passed."

She looked at Suche.

"Archer, you have grown up."

Suche lowered his head and looked at the bowl, wondering how to answer such a question.

"Yeah?"

"Well, that day I was sitting in the car and saw you kill six good horses that had transformed into hungry ghosts with one sword stroke. You are very good at swordsmanship."

"Perhaps in a few days, a matchmaker will come to propose marriage to our Archer and a very beautiful wife. By then, if Archer comes to eat the food cooked by his sister, he may have to look at other people's faces.

"

Suche picked up a piece of bacon and put it in his mouth to chew.

"I don't know which young lady is so lucky..."

"No one will come to me to propose marriage."

Suche put a mouthful of rice into his mouth.

"My reputation is already like that..."

Snap.

Suche raised his head and found tears rolling down the lady's face.

"You still hate me, right?"

Her tears were like rain on a sultry night in the long summer of June, silent and fierce.

Where does this start?

"Tell sister, Archer, I want to hear it from your own mouth..."

What are you talking about, saying I'm a thief?

"It's all over..."

"Some things never go away."

She took out a silk handkerchief from her sleeve and slowly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Sometimes you think it's gone, but you don't know when it will come out quietly and prick the softest place in your heart."

"Look at me, I'm still like this. I didn't scare you, did I?"

"No."

Suche filled a bowl of meatball soup and gently placed it in front of her.

"I have always told myself that life is long and fleeting, and everything must be looked forward to."
