Stepmother Shaoguang

Chapter 35
Since Cong Tianjie ate the similar roasted meat taste in his memory at the Shaoguang restaurant last time, he has been obsessed with it.

No, taking advantage of Xiumu, he sneaked out of the back door of the Imperial College again, trying to relieve the glutton.

He Shaoguang stood behind the counter, and when he looked up, he saw an old man in common clothes with gray hair on his temples, standing at the door of the shop and looking up and down. This person was Cong Tianjie.

The first time he came last time, he felt the handwriting on the plaque was familiar.It's just that he has seen countless people in his life, and the world is full of peaches and plums, so he can't remember which old person it belongs to.

Seeing the young woman behind the counter looking at him, he stepped in and found a seat to sit down.

He Shaoguang went over to greet him.

It was mid-afternoon when he came here, and there was no one eating in the restaurant, only him at the table.

Today, Guan's mother went home to visit relatives, and just now He Shaoguang was still having a headache with the accounts and didn't want to settle them.The appearance of this person can be regarded as temporarily saving her.

He Shaoguang held the food list in his hand, offered it with both hands, and asked the other party to order with a smile.

Cong Tianjie didn't look at anything at first, ordered a piece of broiled mutton, and stroked his beard to flip through the pages.

Looking at it, one can't help wondering: "Why don't you see the staple food, are they all snacks and drinks?"

He Shaoguang pointed to the sky outside, and signaled: "You will come now, I guess you must have had lunch. My restaurant makes some snacks and drinks in the afternoon, so it's not busy right now, if you If you want to eat, I can also fry it for you." As he said that, he was going to get another menu.

Cong Tianjie stopped him: "No need, you guessed right." He just wanted to have another taste of roasted meat.

With the food list, I ordered a sea bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus rice wine glutinous rice balls.

He Shaoguang praised: "Your appetite is really good." It is a blessing to be able to eat, eat a lot, and your health will be good.

Old people like to hear this kind of praise, and if they can still eat it, it proves that they are not that old.

Recently, he was sorting out the poems and travel notes of his youth, reading those words, as if he was much younger.

He Shaoguang praised him to the core.

There is a window connecting the back kitchen and the lobby, and Cong Tianjie could hear the sound of the stove blowing the bellows.

After a while, He Shaoguang came out of the kitchen with a plate.

Cong Tianjie first tasted the grilled mutton with chopsticks.

"Did you bake this roasted meat?"

"I don't have any guests today, so I made it for you myself, but it still suits your taste?" He Shaoguang didn't know Cong Tianjie's identity, but only felt that his face was familiar and friendly.

Cong Tianjie ate the grilled meat, and was even more satisfied than the last time, and the taste was more similar.

After all, He Shaoguang learned it personally from that Xinjiang girl, and He Xing'er was always separated, so he was not that proficient.

Cong Tianjie narrowed his eyes, thinking about it, and took a long time to put down his chopsticks. Perhaps it was the similar sense of taste that made him want to talk.

"The roasted mutton you cook is very similar to an old friend of mine. After all these years, no one can replicate the taste of her cooking."

He Shaoguang smiled and said nothing, she just needs to listen quietly to the story of this kind of old man with a history.

"The wind and sand in the northwest is strong, but the mutton in our capital is not as good as that there. Hey, any herdsman can make roasted mutton." Cong Tianjie recalled that in addition to roasted mutton, he also remembered a curly-haired woman named Mayisa girl.

Just like her name, Maisha has a tenacious vitality, which infects the residents around her, and also infects the lost traveler Cong Tianjie.

Cong Tianjie spent two years there without worries. When a letter from his family called him back to Beijing, he asked Ma Yisha if she would like to be with him. He thought it was the answer he expected, but he didn't expect Ma Yisha Refused.

The two haven't seen each other since.

After hearing this, He Shaoguang smiled slightly: "Perhaps Mayisha, like you, has already started a new life. She must be the same as her name, like a strong seedling, tenacious."

Cong Tianjie understood: Yes, she came out of such a difficult environment.

Some guests came one after another, and He Shaoguang wanted to entertain them, so Cong Tianjie just sat in his seat and waited for the whole afternoon.

Before the evening meal, he left enough silver and left alone.

This shop, if he wants to eat in the future, he will come again.

The business has been really hot recently, and He Xing'er was completely overwhelmed by herself during meal time, so she found He Shaoguang and asked her for advice.

He Shaoguang thought about it, and there is someone in He's mansion who can use him right now.

She borrowed Ana Khan from Haishi's kitchen, the girl from Xinjiang who taught her how to roast meat.In return, she also taught her some Central Plains dishes.

At this time, it also played a role.

Anar Khan and He Shaoguang have a good relationship and are also outspoken, so they agreed without saying a word.

He Shaoguang brought her in front of He Xinger. Anar Khan was in his 20s, a head taller than He Xinger, and had a much stronger body.

Anar Khan looked at his little sister, grinned and showed his white teeth: "My name is Anar Khan, which means pomegranate flower."

With her help, He Xing'er was not so busy, and could come out occasionally to get some fresh air.

It's just that every time Xue Ran saw her, he always seemed hesitant to speak, and his attitude seemed to be even worse than when he first started.

He Xing'er didn't know where he had offended Xiao Jiansheng, so he secretly asked Bai Zikai.

That's right, since that time, Bai Zikai has always rubbed Xue Ran's "meal card", but he didn't always ask him to pay the bill. Most of the time when he rubbed the card, he would help Xue Ran pay for it.

Xue Ran didn't lack the money, but Bai Zikai couldn't drive him away, so he didn't bother to talk to him because he was worried.

Hearing He Xinger's doubts, Bai Zikai smiled mysteriously, and told her quietly: "He already has a crush on a girl, but he doesn't know if she likes him or not."

He Xing'er is ignorant, what does this have to do with her?
Seeing her like this, Bai Zikai sighed, "Think about it, he already has a girl he likes, how can he get too close to other girls?"

It turned out that this was the case, and He Xing'er also felt that it made sense, but he felt a little disappointed in his heart.

She felt that she should have lost a good friend who could be talked about since then, so she was disappointed.

But Jiansheng Xue would still come to eat, and they could just be ordinary friends.

Anar Khan's cheerful humor immediately filled Xue Ran's vacancy, and He Xing'er was not so disappointed. She was like Anar Khan's little follower all day long.

Xue Ran finally wanted to say a few words to her, but he couldn't find her.

Looking at the backs of the two going away, Xue Ran swallowed the words on his lips.His complexion was even more stinky than when he came here, Bai Zikai touched his nose, not daring to be with him anymore.

Hey, anyway, with Xue Ran's broken head, he must not have figured out what he wanted so quickly.If he didn't say anything, then Bai Zi couldn't be blamed for stumbling him.

After all, Bai has no girl he likes yet.

So Xue Jiansheng, who lived for 14 years, was depressed for the first time.
