From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 320 Cousin, Cousin

After all, it is a century-old store, although it is hidden in a small alley, it is not deserted.On the contrary, there were seven or eight large carriages parked in front of their carriages, and they were all very good carriages. It seemed that they were either rich or expensive.

As soon as he turned into the alley, he smelled the smell of meat, and Luo Qiu's stomach writhed violently, swallowing saliva involuntarily.Mei Xin has never paid much attention to appetite, she feels that the smell of this meat is not fishy, ​​so she feels at ease.

Since getting off the carriage, Zongzheng Mingzhen's eyes have not moved away from Mei Xin's body. Seeing that she is not feeling sick or feeling sick, he smiled slightly and said: "The mutton pot made by his family is the best in the capital. Many dignitaries are regular customers here. However, my mother thinks that eating mutton is too hot, so she only eats other side dishes every time she comes.”

Hearing the sound, she turned her head and glanced at him, Mei Xin said lightly, "Master Hou often comes here?"

Feeling that the title Hou Ye was too unfamiliar, as if he didn't know him, Zongzheng Mingzhen said: "If you don't want to call me by my name, you can call me Mingzhen. I like this place very much, but I always have time. It would be nice to come back once in three months.”

He is telling the truth, but he has not been in the capital for the past two years, and this is the first time he has returned.

Seeing that he seemed to care about the address repeatedly, Mei Xin nodded and said, "I'm not familiar with the capital city, and I don't know that restaurant is delicious. I'll be the host another day, and Mingzhen can choose a place."

She didn't like to owe others, Mei Xin thought that she would invite Bai Yulan to a Suzhou restaurant for dinner when she was free in two days, and it happened to satisfy Luo Qiu and the others.

I don't know how many times my name has been called since I was a child, but I don't know why it seems to be different when it comes out of her mouth.Her voice is different from other women, it is not soft or weak, nor is it like a silver bell, but it is very clear and sweet, like big pearls and small pearls falling on a jade plate: "Okay, then..."

"Cousin, cousin..." Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted, and his cousin Xia Ziyun, whom he had not seen for a long time, trotted all the way to him.

With a face full of joy and shy eyes, Xia Zilin blurted out: "Cousin, it's really you, I thought I misread it just now. Cousin, what have you been up to lately, I'll go..."

"This is Princess Zhen Guo, let's see you!" Zongzheng Mingzhen was very displeased when she didn't know what happened to her and how she came here.Especially now that it's dark and snowing, it's not proper for her to yell in the street.

Perhaps Zongzheng Mingzhen has always been so expressionless in her impression, Xia Zilin happily saluted Mei Xin and said: "The daughter of the people Xia Zilin greets the eldest princess, and the eldest princess is blessed and golden!"

Seeing that Xia Ziyun was full of joy and seemed to have affection for Zongzheng Mingzhen, Mei Xin signaled her to stand up and said, "Hello Miss Xia, since Miss Xia is here to see Mingzhen, then I won't disturb the two of you. Mingzhen, what do you say?" , I went first!"

I have never had any feelings for my cousin Zongzheng Mingzhen, but it is hard to say anything in front of Mei Xin. After all, she is a relative, and the other party is Yunying's unmarried girl, so I still have to save some face: "You go ahead and I Come later. Sixty-nine, you lead the eldest princess to the elegant room."

Because the business here is good and the taste is good, and Magnolia often invites people here to discuss business, the Zongzheng Hou Mansion has reserved a private room here all year round.Therefore, there is no need to line up, let alone wait, you can come anytime you want to eat.

Liu Jiu obeyed the order and led Mei Xin and others into the Mutton Restaurant, and went straight up to the third floor to the private room reserved by the Zongzheng Hou's Mansion.

Xia Zilin wanted to go in for dinner with him, but he didn't dare to make a fuss in front of Zongzheng Mingzhen.So he said: "I haven't seen my cousin for a long time, and my cousin has lost weight. Cousin, I miss you, why don't you visit me?"

After finishing speaking, Xia Zilin's tears came out as he stepped forward to grab Zongzheng Mingzhen's sleeve with a sad face.

One head and two big, Zongzheng Mingzhen regretted not killing his double himself.But two years have caused so many rotten love affairs, is he obsessed and crazy?

The alley was crowded and narrow, so Zongzheng Mingzhen grabbed her arm and took her aside and said, "No matter what I said or did in the past, you will forget everything from now on. You are not young anymore, you should Now that you are married, I will ask my mother to find a good family for you, and after my aunt has seen it, you are ready to get married."

"Zichen, it's getting late, you send her back in person. Also, tell my uncle and aunt what I said. The capital city has not been peaceful recently, so my cousin should not go out until she becomes a monk."

I don't have so much time to deal with them, and I think it's time for my aunt's family to beat them.Even if he dared to calculate, his heart really got bigger and bigger.

After finishing speaking, he left, and when he turned around, Xia Ziyun grabbed him, grabbed his sleeve tightly and said: "No, I don't want to marry, cousin, I am willing to be your concubine. No, being a girl is not enough." Okay, as long as I can look at you every day and be with you, I don't care if I have no name or status. Cousin, I like you, I love you, I can't marry someone else even if I die. "

I liked him since I was a child, and wanted to marry him wholeheartedly.Besides, my mother also said that even if she dies, she has to be the ghost of the Zongzhenghou's family, and she must get him.

He lost his patience with Zongzheng Mingzhen, the white-eyed wolf who made his mother sad. He flicked his sleeves and said, "Pay attention to your words and deeds, you are shameless and your parents want shame. If you want to die, you can die. I will never stop you. But if you want to persecute me or my mother with death, then you should stop thinking about it as soon as possible."

"Zichen, take her back!" After speaking, Zongzheng Mingzhen left without looking back.

Xia Zilin was not reconciled, nor did she believe it, so she opened her mouth and wanted to call her cousin again.Zi Chen had quick eyes and quick hands, sealed her dumb acupoint and took her away regardless of her wishes.

Mei Xin ran into an acquaintance in the mutton restaurant, and when Zongzheng Mingzhen came up, he saw her chatting happily with a man in a purple brocade robe.Since the man's back was facing him, he didn't recognize who it was, but as the distance got closer, he heard his sister yelling heartily.

The smiling face is like a flower and is gentle and picturesque. He has never seen Mei Xin at this moment.Very relaxed, but also very excited, just like seeing my best friend or relative, reunited after a long absence, happy dancing and dancing, with the word "happy" written in my eyes.

"I didn't expect to meet you here. If I knew, I would have brought candied haws. I remember that you and Luoqiu liked to eat them at that time. They saved money and bought more than a dozen at once. Everyone ate their teeth. The sourness is down, and I don’t even have to put effort into biting pancakes.” The man wearing a jade crown and a purple brocade robe was beaming with joy, and couldn’t help gesticulating when he was happy.

Recalling the time when she had no money, Mei Xin also sighed for a while, but it didn't last long. She said: "I guess it was because I ate too much at one time, and it hurt. We ate very little afterwards. However, Luo Qiu still I like it, I just said that there are no candied haws sold on the street."
