The Fairy Tale

The fourth round of the competition will be held three days later. Perhaps the organizers do not want this grand event to end soon. The first three rounds of the competition eliminated most of the pharmacists, and the rest are the younger generation of pharmacists. Elites, their duel will of course be more exciting.

After eating lunch in the hotel, Reg hid in the house to refine the elixir, and originally planned to spend the next few days like this, but in the evening, Mrs. Qiangwei knocked on Reg's door.

"You have worked hard these two days." Madam Qiangwei's eyes were gentle, and she stared at Reg with a sense of gratitude: "Don't practice tonight, let's go out and have dinner together."

Reg stared at Madam Qiangwei in surprise, and smiled wryly, "Madam, we are all wearing masks..."

Madam Qiangwei shook her head slightly, and said with a smile: "Let's go, you will know when the time comes."

Reg followed Mrs. Qiangwei out the door, but he was still thinking about what Mrs. Qiangwei said. He suspected that Mrs. Qiangwei today seemed a little strange to her usual, eating, but one thing that Mrs. Qiangwei has always avoided. Eat delicious food, do you watch yourself eat?

Or...she was going to reveal her true colors to herself?

Reg was very apprehensive, but he also had some wonderful expectations. He had always had a strong curiosity about this teacher, whom he didn't know the name, appearance, or origin of until now. .

Mrs. Qiangwei seemed to see through what Reg was thinking, but she didn't say much, and just left the hotel with Reg.

Dongjue City is the largest city close to the King City, with a large scale and developed commerce. Although it was slightly dark at this time, various lanterns have been lit up, and the whole street is still lively.

From the tavern on the side of the street, there was the loud noise of drinking guests, the cries of street vendors, and the sound of customers bargaining... mixed together, it was very lively.

Madam Qiangwei took Reg on the street, but she didn't have any destination, it seemed like she was just wandering around.

Reg was puzzled, but he didn't ask any questions. He just followed Mrs. Qiangwei and walked quietly.

Madam Qiangwei looked at Lei Ge who was slightly behind on her right hand side, with a strange look in her eyes, her footsteps slowed slightly, and she and Lei Ge immediately walked side by side.

Reg raised his head if he felt it, but Madam Qiangwei smiled slightly: "Although I am your teacher, you don't have to be so restrained. At this time, you can treat me as your friend. For many years, I I’ve never walked the streets so leisurely before.”

Reg was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly, but he still didn't speak, but there was an idea in his mind that became clearer.

Today's Mrs. Qiangwei is really different from usual.

Along the avenue in the city, the two walked all the way. When they came to the wide river in the city, Madam Qiangwei stopped and led Reg along the river. go.

The farther you go, the darker it becomes. The brightly lit bustling part of the city is getting farther and farther away, but the houses you can see are getting lower and lower. Mrs. Qiangwei brought Reg into a poor area in the city.

Reg became more and more puzzled, what exactly did Mrs. Qiangwei want to do?

After walking through a long dark path, Mrs. Qiangwei suddenly stopped in her tracks. In front of the two of them, there was a small street shop that didn't look very big. Two lanterns that were not very bright stood in the dark. Shaking gently.

Mrs. Qiangwei looked at the small shop in front of her, her eyes became a little blurred, and she murmured in a low voice: "It's been so many years, things have changed, but this place still hasn't changed..."

Reg looked at this very typical small shop in the slums, and was slightly surprised. Did she say that she had dinner with herself here?

This idea just came to Reg's mind, Madam Qiangwei had already turned her head and looked at Reg with a slight smile: "Is it surprising that I brought you here for dinner?" [

Reg nodded frankly: "I'm a little surprised, here... it seems that Madam is very familiar with it?"

Madam Qiangwei walked slowly towards the small shop, but sighed softly: "Here, I met my teacher and my senior sister Carmena."

Reg was shocked, here?

Madam Qiangwei walked into this small shop slowly, there was no waiter in the small shop, only an old man in his 50s, who was cheerfully moving a pot to the ground.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, the old man hastily turned his head, ready to greet the first wave of guests who came to the door today, when he saw Mrs. Qiangwei clearly under the dim light, the old man's face revealed a bit of surprise.

"Miss Lan Qing...you are back!"

Reg, who had just stepped into the shop, was slightly startled. He had heard the name Lanqing once from Carmena, and knew it was Madam Qiangwei's real name, but he didn't expect that the owner of this small shop also knew her name.

Madam Qiangwei's voice was actually very gentle, and she even said with a bit of respect: "Uncle Firth, I have already said that you can just call me by my name..."

uncle?

Reg stared at the old shop owner with wide eyes. Facing Mrs. Qiangwei's words, the old man smiled honestly, rubbed his hands together awkwardly and said, "I'm just an ordinary little old man, you..."

Madam Qiangwei shook her head, interrupted the old man's words, and said softly: "Uncle Firth, you are always so polite..."

The owner, the old man Phils, obviously saw that Mrs. Qiangwei was very happy, and his face was also full of smiles. His eyes fell on Reg who was standing beside Mrs. Qiangwei, and there was a bit of joy in his eyes: "Miss Lan Qing, Is this your friend? Is this the first time I've seen you bring a friend?"

Reg just wanted to say that he is a student of Mrs. Qiangwei, but who knows that Mrs. Qiangwei has already nodded and said: "Well, he is a friend of mine. He is here to do something in Dongjue City this time, so he will come to visit you, uncle. Do you know you are in good health?"

Phils rubbed his calloused hands, opened his mouth and smiled, "I'm in good health, but if I'm sick, sit down, sit down."

The old tables and chairs were not known how many years old, but they were wiped clean. Madam Qiangwei straightened her robe and sat down on a table next to the wall.

"Regg, sit down."

Lei Ge sat opposite Mrs. Qiangwei according to his words, but he was still thinking about what Mrs. Qiangwei said to Fiers just now. She actually told him that she was her friend?

Reg looked at this old shop, I don't know how many years old it is, and on the small red stove, I don't know what is stewed, but it is very fragrant.

Reg saw that Phils actually closed the door of the small shop that was originally open, and Reg could not help being a little surprised. Did he stop doing business?

Madam Qiangwei looked at Reg's surprised gaze, and smiled softly: "Every time I come back here, I will ask him to suspend his business for a day, because I don't want others to disturb you."

Reg groaned, seeing that Phils closed the door naturally, obviously Madam Qiangwei came here more than once or twice.

After closing the door, Phils quickly ran to the pot to tinker with it, brought over a large wooden plate, and put all the dishes on the table. [

A large bowl of rotten stewed radish and beef, a large bowl of what looked like animal offal, I don't know what it is, but it smells delicious, a plate of salted beans, a plate of spicy cabbage... and a jug of wine.

"Miss Lan Qing, eat slowly, I'm right next door, if you need anything, just call me."

Phils put down all his things, and after speaking with a simple and honest smile, he entered the small room inside, which seemed to be his usual resting place, but Reg noticed that before Phils entered the room, He looked at himself a few more times, and there was a strange joy in his eyes.

"How about it? It smells delicious. Uncle Firth's craftsmanship is no worse than that of the chefs in those restaurants..." Mrs. Qiangwei looked at Reg, with a bit of nostalgia in her eyes: "Back then, if my family could return home , wandering the streets, if Uncle Phils didn’t often give me some food, I would have starved to death, and I wouldn’t have met Teacher and the others here…”

Reg was shocked. Mrs. Qiangwei seldom mentioned her past, but now it was the first time she mentioned it. It was unexpected that her past was so tragic...

"Take off your mask, here, don't keep it secret."

Reg was wondering how to eat while wearing a mask, Madam Qiangwei sighed lightly, and said faintly, there was a strange sense of exhaustion in her words.

Reg gently took off the mask on his face, gently picked up a piece of beef, put it in his mouth, took a few bites, tasted it, then swallowed it, raised his eyes, and looked at Qiangwei Madam chuckled and praised in anticipation: "It's really delicious."

Hearing Reg's praise, Mrs. Qiangwei jumped up with childish joy, and said with a light smile, "I told you to take you to eat delicious food, so I definitely won't lie to you."

Reg looked at Mrs. Qiangwei's happy appearance, but suddenly there was an impulse in his heart, he stared at Mrs. Qiangwei and asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"

Madam Qiangwei smiled lightly: "You came here on a special trip, why don't you eat? Are you going to let me watch you eat alone?"

Madam Qiangwei stretched out her slender and white right hand, and clasped her mask.

She wants to take off her mask?

Reg's heart jumped uncontrollably, and there was a faint hope in his heart.

What kind of face is there under the purple rose mask?
