898. Even if we meet again, we should not know each other
"Come on, I didn't expect to meet you here. When I walked in, I looked familiar, but I didn't dare to recognize you... After all, everyone is old!" Tao Yuanyuan greeted Meng Sanniang with a mysterious smile.
Come in.
Wen Ranran twitched the corner of her mouth, "You two... know each other?"
Tao Yuanyuan smiled and nodded, with a hint of emotion on her face, "You can say you know each other, or you can say you don't know each other. After all...it's been thirty years, who still knows each other? I thought the other person was buried long ago."
"Bah! You just died! I lived a good life. Who is like you, being raised as a canary by the emperor? When I saw you just now, for a moment I thought you had seen a ghost! I was afraid of admitting my mistake!"
Meng Sanniang laughed and cursed.
There was no scene where the two of them were holding each other's arms and crying as their relatives met each other, but no one who saw this scene would question the friendship between them.
"This is... the prime minister's third daughter, Meng Shu, when An Guo was still there." Tao Yuanyuan pulled Wen Ranran and introduced Meng Shu to Wen Ranran.
"This is Wen Ranran, my default daughter-in-law!" Tao Yuanyuan had a look of pride on her face.
Wen Ranran was stunned for a moment, but still put on a polite smile.
"Aunt Meng!"
Meng Shu looked Wen Ranran up and down, her charming almond eyes narrowed.
"This girl in your family looks very much like you back then!"
"I think so too!"
"Okay, okay, let's eat rice dumplings. I know you love glutinous rice dumplings the most, so I even got the password right!" Meng Shu pushed her, looking at the wrinkles at the corners of Queen Tao's eyes, she also sighed silently.
Wen Ranran stood aside, obediently and silently, watching the two of them chatting.
The two ladies, who are no longer young anymore, suddenly met each other, and it felt like they were meeting close friends again.
Back then, when Tao Yuanyuan was a maid serving His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Anguo, Meng Shu was her only playmate. Later, when Anguo was in danger, Tao Yuanyuan put on armor and took command, but in the end she was defeated.
As for Miss Meng San, because she had some talent in numerology since she was a child, she had been sent to a master in the world to learn the Five Elements and Bagua, and she barely escaped death.
We haven't seen each other for nearly twenty years.
Even if we meet each other, we should not know each other, our face is covered with dust and our temples are like frost.
Wen Ranran sighed slightly and just silently refilled the tea for the two old sisters who couldn't finish talking.
Tao Yuanyuan held the bowl and ate the glutinous rice dumplings with big mouthfuls. Her tears fell into the bowl along with the dumplings, but there was still a smile in her eyes.
"Later... I got married, but within two years, the old man raised a little one outside. Unfortunately, no one could survive in the end. I inherited the old man's property and wandered all the way to Youyou.
Zhou, thinking that when you were young, your dream was to be a general stationed on the border, so I opened this inn here, always looking forward to meeting you..." Meng Shu, Tao Yuanyuan's hands, the face has the ups and downs of time.
"I didn't expect...to actually meet...but I don't know what to say..."
Tao Yuanyuan shook her head, "It's all over. If it hadn't been for the crisis in the court, I wouldn't have taken the risk..."
Meng Shu smiled.
Wen Ranran was silent for a while, and quietly closed the door on the excuse that she was feeling suffocated inside.
Outside the door, Qian Yu has not slept and is still guarding. Even Gu Qian Dao is on guard.
"Don't rest tonight. Be vigilant. If you find something wrong with this inn, leave immediately!" Wen Ranran said in a deep tone as she handed over several thunderbolts and poisonous powder in her hands to the two of them.
