"Hey! This young master! Young master!" A woman's voice, slightly full of surprise, called out to Ren Yue.
"Sister-in-law, are you calling me?" Ren Yue felt surprised. The woman who called him was nothing more than an aunt who set up a tea stall by the roadside. Could it be that even an aunt at a tea stall recognized herself as Mr. Wushuang? Ren Yue found it funny and laughed at himself.
At this moment, an old man selling candied haws drove past, Wen Shou was stopping behind Ren Yue, and was about to buy candied haws for his two children to satisfy their hunger.
"My lord, don't you remember me? In Xi'an, you even bought my house!" La Renyue, who was very familiar with the aunt, sat down and quickly handed over a bowl of tea.
"House?..." Ren Yue recalled carefully, "Oh... so you are the one..." Ren Yue remembered that when he bought a house for Mr. Song Tao in the provincial capital, he first took a fancy to a small courtyard, which can be described as love at first sight , I bought it at a price of 600 taels, but after learning that the residence of the four of Wen's family was still unavailable, I asked this aunt to sell it to the Wen family at a price of 500 taels, and I secretly made up the difference , As for Yi Tianxing's small courtyard later, it was entirely because of a reason, if not, he would not have bought Yi Tianxing's courtyard for Mr. Songtao to live in.
However, all that Ren Yue did was done by himself, and no one else knew about it except the farm aunt that day.
However, this is the capital, and meeting this aunt here is really... a coincidence... ah!
There were four members of Wen's family behind him, and Ren Yue suddenly felt his mind went blank.
"Auntie, didn't you go to the countryside? Why did you come to the capital?" Ren Yue began to deliberately avoid the topic of the house.
"Hi! Speaking of which, I really want to thank you son for buying the six hundred taels of silver for my small courtyard!" The aunt opened her mouth and brought the topic back to the house.
Ren Yue frowned and coughed lightly.
"My lord, you don't know! You bought my small courtyard that day, and our family got money. We wanted to go back to the countryside to buy a cheap small courtyard. Whether it is to let the children study, or to save for him to marry a wife in the future , it all needs money. But this money can’t bloom and bear fruit by itself, can it? Coincidentally, a brother of the child’s father said that he would come to the capital to start a small business, and asked us if we would go. We thought about it, at home It’s better to just sit and eat, it’s better to venture out, besides, there are many opportunities in the capital, and there are many rich people. Why don’t you just open a small tea stall here, and the business is pretty good!” The woman’s voice was loud. As he spoke, he attracted gentle attention.
"Oh, that's right! Then I really want to congratulate this aunt." Ren Yue didn't drink tea, but just responded politely.
"Hey, by the way, young master, you have also come to the capital! Then what did you do with the small courtyard that you bought that day and asked me to sell it to the family of four for five hundred taels? That family still doesn't know ? Young Master, you are such a good person! You have done good deeds without leaving a name! You even paid for it yourself!" The aunt was quick to speak, and she was quick to do business, and even if Ren Yue wanted to stop him, he couldn't stop her .
"Cough cough." Ren Yue coughed again softly, intentionally hinting.
"My lord, you are not feeling well! You have to pay attention to your health! It's true that you want to come to that family! You have received such a big favor from your lord, but you have gained a lot of money. You have to take care of your health, lord! A big man like you Good man, but he will live a long life!" The aunt said again with concern.
"Auntie, what did you just say? A house?" Rourou couldn't bear it any longer, and walked up to the tea stand with a few steps, holding a bunch of candied haws that Wen Shouzheng just bought for her.
"Hey! Isn't this girl the one who bought my yard that day? Tsk tsk, I haven't seen you for a few months, and the girl has come out even more gracefully! Why, the girl came to the capital with the young master? What about my house? Are you still there? That house was built by us with every plant and tree. The bamboo and crabapple in front of the house. The pomegranate flowers in the backyard should be bearing fruit now! I really miss it..." The aunt was gentle when she saw it, Unspoken memories of the past.
good. That was exactly the scene of the Wen family's small courtyard in the provincial capital; at this moment, the tea stall lady in front of her. It was the aunt who flashed out of nowhere that day and showed the four of Wen's family around the house! Gentle and careful recollection, not surprised.
"Auntie, you just said that the small courtyard we lived in the provincial capital was bought by this young master at a high price and sold to us at a low price?" Rourou confirmed again.
"That's right! The girl doesn't know yet! Hey! Look at my mouth, I promised the young master not to tell it! But today, I'm in a different place, and I saw the young master at a glance! I'm so happy, my mouth There is no door! Come, come, I am treating you to today's tea, and you can use it as you like, as you like!" The aunt greeted fiercely.
Ren Yue is as elegant as a jade, leaving the world behind, no matter in Xianyang, the provincial capital, or the capital, he is the most eye-catching one among the crowd! It's no wonder that aunt, reunited in a different place, even though it was dusk, she still clearly saw Ren Yue dressed in white!
This is how the scene just happened...
Ren Yue, it turns out that the small courtyard he has been living in has been arranged by Ren Yue; it turns out that he has been secretly helping and protecting himself for a long time; it turns out that he is still silent like in his previous life. Waiting by my side, never revealing; it turns out that I have been kept in the dark like a fool...
Standing in front of Ren Yue tenderly and obsessively, staring blankly at Ren Yue, the expression in her eyes is as complicated as her emotions at the moment, half of which is the reluctance of the previous life, and the other half is the touch of this life.
"At the end of the year, Mr. Qiao will give us a dividend, or next season, Xianyang will send us the banknotes for selling Morning Dew wine. When we have accumulated enough, I will pay you back!" Rourou said a little embarrassed.
"Repay the money?" Ren Yue asked knowingly.
"Well, you are already in debt to you for helping us find a place to live, and you can't let you pay the difference in advance!" Wen Rou was a little embarrassed.
"It's 'you' again! Do you know who I am?" Ren Yue's eyes blurred slightly, and the long and narrow pupils looked even more graceful.
"You are Ren Yue!" Wen Rou was a little confused.
"I'm Mr. Wushuang! Hehe, have you heard that Mr. Wushuang is worried about money? That's not my style!" Ren Yue slightly raised the corners of his mouth, an elegant arc and the blur in his eyes, in this In the hazy dusk, everything is more charming.
"But..." Ruan seemed to have something to say.
"You will return this to me!" Ren Yue gently took the huge, bright red, icing sugar gourd from his gentle hands, even though he doesn't like sweets.
"Young Master Ren..." Rou Rou didn't respond. He lost his voice.
"Let's go, let's go there for a stroll." Ren Yue immediately got up and said goodbye to the lady at the tea stall. With the same astonished and bewildered members of the Wen family, they headed towards the misty and bustling lights of the capital.
All the way, I listened to Ren Yue introducing the customs and various shops in the capital. After wandering around, the four members of Wen's family were basically familiar with the surrounding environment.
However, in Wenrou's heart, there are all familiar scenes here, and everything is no different from the previous life.
"If you get rid of the idea of going to the palace to be a cook, I will be sweeter than eating this." When sending the Wen family back, Ren Yue raised the candied haws that he had been holding in his hand, and whispered in his ear Gentle side.
"Is that why you don't want me to enter the palace?" Rou Rou asked softly.
"It's not you. It's just that I hate the hypocrisy and exaggeration in the palace." Ren Yue said lightly.
"Then, if I really enter the palace and become the imperial cook, will you still abide by your agreement?" Rourou still asked softly.
"Of course, a gentleman promises no jokes!" Ren Yue's deep eyes were staring at the slender girl in front of him. He really didn't understand why this enigmatic girl was so eager to be a cook in the palace? !
"Rou'er, go back!" Mrs. Zhou urged in the courtyard.
"Mom, I'm here!" Gentle replied. He casually bowed his body and said goodbye to Ren Yue.
"I'm leaving, come back tomorrow." Ren Yue's face was calm and composed. Even if you are puzzled in your heart.
"Is the foot injury healed?" After all, Rou Rou asked worriedly.
"En." Ren Yue replied simply, and turned around gracefully, leaving only the back of the flowing white clothes, gradually disappearing from the gentle sight.
That night, the small courtyard of Wen's family seemed peaceful and peaceful, but in fact, everyone had a lot of worries in their hearts.
"Father, why do you think Mr. Ren is so nice to us?" Mrs. Zhou pushed Wen Shouzheng who was sleeping next to him.
"Mr. Ren has high ambitions, and he must have seen our distress that day, so he came to help!" Wen Shouzheng guessed.
"Then you said Mr. Ren's money. Shall we pay it back?" Mrs. Zhou still asked worriedly.
"Repay! Of course we have to pay back! When the money for Chaolujiu arrives in the next quarter, let's pay it back! Mr. Ren is open-minded, we can't be the ones who are greedy for petty gain!" Wen Shouzheng said firmly.
"Alas..." Wen Shouzheng sighed softly.
"His father. Why are you sighing?" Zhou asked again.
"It's nothing, go to sleep... I'm thinking about the game..." Wen Shouzheng replied vaguely, turned over and there was no more movement.
Wen Shouzheng will never forget the scene that happened in Xiangfu during the day today!
No matter how stupid a cook Wen Shouzheng was, he knew the way King Huaide looked at Rou'er!
If Wen Wen was a boy, maybe Wen Shouzheng was just a pity, at worst, he would be taken into the palace to be a cook in the palace, locked up like a bird in a cage for a lifetime; With this superb culinary skill...
Wen Shouzheng didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't want to think about it. The ending that seemed to have been doomed for a long time was right there... It was so cold that it made people despair! At this moment, Wen Shouzheng only thought that Wenrou could join him in the chef selection competition with all his strength, and be selected into the palace in one fell swoop, because even if the word "御" was stained, even his own son would dare not open his mouth to grab something from Lao Tzu!
The simple Wen Shouzheng would never guess that the palace gate he wanted to enter was a steep cliff. His hard work was not to find happiness, but to step up to the palace step by step. cliff top. The scenery at the top is infinitely good, but if you take a step forward, there is already an abyss under your feet.
