Forced to become his stand-in wife

"Inscriptions on stones, do you know what else is there?"

Qin Muyang held the stone and admired it, when Ling Qiu asked him, he didn't think about it carefully, and said casually, "What else?"

"Tombstone." Ling Qiu said coldly, then threw the stone in his hand to Qin Muyang, "I don't want it."

Qin Muyang looked down at the stone carved with the word Ling Qiu in his hand, let alone the stall owner's craftsmanship is good, the carving is very beautiful.

The stone is golden yellow and somewhat transparent in the sun.

He carefully put it in his clothes bag, thinking, what a tombstone, how unlucky.

Ling Qiu looked at Qin Muyang's cautious movements, Qin Muyang was not superstitious before, and it was the first time he was fooled by the stall owner like this to buy two broken stones in his past and present lives.

There is a temple not far from here. Qin Muyang took his father and daughter to pay the tickets and went in.

Coming to the temple to pray for blessings is nothing more than asking for safety. Qin Muyang donated incense money, held incense in his hand, and prayed very devoutly. He even knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Looking at his series of actions, Ling Qiu was very shocked.

Qin Muyang didn't come here for himself, he had nothing to ask for as a dying person, the only thing he hoped for was that Ling Qiu and Qi Qi would live well and be healthy.

When they were about to leave the temple, the staff inside gave them three blessings of safety, and Qin Muyang gave Ling Qiu his own.

This time, Ling Qiu accepted it, and he even asked Qin Muyang: "I remember that you never believed in this before, and you have never been to this kind of place."

Qin Muyang nodded, "I didn't believe it before, but after you left, a fortune teller said that I was trapped by love in my life and couldn't find it, so I believed it."

— In a word, Ling Qiu has nothing to say.

The scenery of the temple is good. After a few laps, it was five o'clock in the afternoon.

Qin Muyang has been staring at the phone, taking advantage of Ling Qiu's inattention, he clicked on the map to navigate, the address of Ling Qiu's mother's barbecue restaurant.

That place is too remote, in a dark alley, you have to find one by one to get there.

"Are you hungry? Qiqi?" Qin Muyang lowered his head and asked the child.

When Qi Qi heard her being called, she raised her head, with a smile on her pink and tender face.

After playing all day, she looked extremely excited, nodding her head happily, and whispered that she was hungry.

The tall shofar braids flickered with her movements, looking delicate and cute.

"Take Qiqi to eat first." Qin Muyang looked at Ling Qiu.

Ling Qiu nodded, there are many roadside stalls around here, just eat a bowl of noodles.

Ling Qiu thought simply, but he didn't expect Qin Muyang to take them farther and farther, and the roads became more and more remote.

Qin Muyang's behavior had to make him feel suspicious, Ling Qiu stopped: "Do you have to go so far for a meal? And it's still so far away."

Qin Muyang was holding Xiqi's hand, and Qiqi stopped following Ling Qiu's movements, and he naturally stopped too.

"Before I came here, I made a travel guide. As for food, the guide said that the more partial the better, there is a night market not far from here, and it is full of food." Qin Muyang was afraid that Ling Qiu would not believe him. Take out your phone and show it to him.

Sure enough, as Qin Muyang said, on the route showing the alley, there is a row full of food.

"Qiqi, will uncle take you to a barbecue?"

Qiqi has seen barbecue, but he has never even tasted it. The price of C City is high, and it costs about one hundred to eat barbecue.

When she was young, she already knew that it was not easy for her father to make money. Other children as old as her would pester their parents for whatever they wanted, but she couldn't.

Qiqi asked sensiblely, "Dad, can I have barbecue?"

Although she wanted to eat it very much, she asked her father first.

If Dad won't let her eat it, she won't eat it.

The longing on the child's face suddenly broke into Ling Qiu's eyes, and he felt sore in his heart.

"Yes, but not too much."

Children are greedy, and if they eat too much, they may get sick and get gastroenteritis.

"Eat too much, be careful of stomach pain."

Qi Qi nodded obediently: "I'll follow my father's advice, just eat a little bit."

Qin Muyang couldn't help but interjected: "It's okay to have a big meal once in a while..."

Before he finished speaking, he was stared at by Ling Qiu.

Ling Qiu has his own way of educating children, teaching her temperance since childhood, not to be greedy.

Qin Muyang rubbed his nose and found a tricycle on the side of the road. The bluestone road was rickety. After 15 minutes, the tricycle stopped at the entrance of an alley.

"It's not easy to drive here, so I'll send you here. If you want to eat, there are all of them here. Don't look at the fact that there are no people there. After dark, everyone will be seated inside." After they came from other places, they kindly introduced them.

Qin Muyang paid the fare of 30 yuan, and then asked, "Excuse me, sir, is Li Ji's barbecue restaurant far from here?"

"Li Ji." The uncle thought for a while and replied, "It's not far, go inside, and when you meet the second cross alley, turn left, and the third store will be there."

He often sends people here to eat, and he remembers these shops very clearly.

"Thank you."

"No need." The uncle smiled, turned around and left in the tricycle.

Ling Qiu didn't expect that Qin Muyang's strategy was so deep that he even searched for any barbecue restaurants in advance.

Qin Muyang hasn't told Ling Qiu about his mother yet, he thought to see what kind of person his mother is first, if she is not good, he won't take Ling Qiu to recognize her.

Qin Muyang walked outside holding Ling Qiu's hand, Ling Qiu struggled subconsciously, and let him go without breaking free.

According to the road pointed by the uncle, they arrived in less than 5 minutes.

The store is not big, but it is very clean. The tables and benches are neatly placed. It was less than six o'clock at this time, and there were already two tables seated inside.

The boss who was grilling kebabs stopped when he saw them: "Would you like to eat barbecue? Sit down and order whatever you want."

Qin Muyang nodded, pulled Ling Qiu and the children to sit outside, the barbecue shop was heavy with oily smoke, and the inside was a bit stuffy.

It's April now, it's still a bit cold with the wind blowing in the evening, but it will warm up after eating barbecue later.

After the boss saw them sitting down, he shouted loudly into the room: "Mother, there are customers coming out, take the menu and pour a glass of water."

I only heard a gentle female voice inside responding, and the proprietress came out after a while.

The proprietress came out wearing an apron as she walked, and after a quick glance at the number of people at Ling Qiu's table, she came over with three cups in one hand and a kettle in the other.

After putting the water glass on the table, he put the menu on the table smoothly.

"What would you like to eat?"

The proprietress's voice is very pleasant, gentle and soft, blowing in my ears like warm wind.

Ling Qiu couldn't help but glanced at her, and after just one glance, his body suddenly froze.

He has never seen this woman before, but he just feels so familiar. The dream he had last night unconsciously became clear, his eyes turned red unconsciously, his nose was a little sore, and his heart tightened and contracted. , as if there is a small hand pinching it.

Qin Muyang handed the menu in front of him, "Qiuqiu, you can order whatever you want."

Ling Qiu came back to his senses, and hastily lowered his head to flip through the menu. He was in a hurry, his head was empty.

Ling Qiu pointed at a dish with trembling fingers, "One serving of this, and this... this..."

Taking advantage of Ling Qiu's time to order, Qin Muyang looked up at the proprietress without following any traces.

I have to say that compared to the photos, she looks younger and more beautiful in reality. Standing beside Ling Qiu, the two of them are like carved out of the same mold. No one will doubt the similarity between the two of them.

After randomly ordering ten servings, Ling Qiu stopped. He lowered his head and pushed the menu towards Qin Muyang: "I'm done ordering, let's see what you want to eat?"

The slight tremor in Ling Qiu's voice failed to escape Qin Muyang's ears.

Did he already know something?

Qin Muyang took the menu and took a look, he didn't like any of the dozen or so dishes.

What Ling Qiu selected were all internal organs, what heart and lungs, pig intestines, duck hearts, and brains.

Not to mention that he doesn't eat this kind of food, even Ling Qiu rarely touches it.

It seemed that he was completely out of shape, and Qin Muyang couldn't cross it out, so he picked out a few dishes that Ling Qiu and the child liked to eat, and then ordered a porridge.

"Qiqi, what snack would you like to eat?"

Qi Qi glanced at the menu, and then chose a cheap roasted yam.

Qiqi: "Uncle, I want to eat roasted yam."

Qin Muyang: "Okay, Uncle Ling Qiqi hooks it."

— There are not many yams in one serving, so Qin Muyang wrote a two on it.

thank you uncle. "

The lady proprietress took back the menu, glanced in Ling Qiu's direction, her gaze was slightly startled, she turned around and got the dishes to roast without stopping any longer.

As soon as they finished ordering, more people came, and it didn't take long for all the tables outside to be filled. There were not enough people to grill, so the proprietress did it herself, and Ling Qiu's table was basically grilled by her.

After it was baked, it was delivered to the table, and he said in a gentle voice, "Call me if you need anything, and the three of you can eat slowly."

Ling Qiu was a little out of his mind, and he was a little careless about picking up vegetables for Qi Qi.

Qin Muyang who was sitting opposite took a closer look at the table of dishes that was served, and found that the portions were larger than those of other tables. He looked at the back of the proprietress meaningfully.

Could it be that she also noticed it?

"It's delicious." Ling Qiu ate a piece of meat, the pork belly was roasted very fragrant, golden in color, crispy in skin, fat but not greasy.

He ordered a dry dish, with sesame seeds sprinkled on the chili noodles, and the meat was dipped in the chili noodles and eaten in his mouth, it was fragrant and spicy.

I don't know if it's because it's too spicy, but after Ling Qiu swallowed it, tears fell down with a snap, just dripping on the dry dish.

The store has two floors, halfway through the meal, a young man in his 20s came down from upstairs.

The young man was wearing shorts and shorts, holding a basketball in his hand: "Mom, I'm going out to play basketball for a while, and I'll be back later."

While the proprietress was busy with the work in hand, she turned her head and glanced at her son, "Why are you wearing so little? It's cold outside. What if I catch a cold?"

The young man didn't care about his mother's concern, and didn't take it to heart at all, "It's okay, I sweat all over playing basketball, and I won't be cold at all."

"Then you go, don't come back too late."

"I see."

Talking about the young man running out with the basketball in his arms, Ling Qiu couldn't help following him out.

How happy to have a father and a mother.

Ling Qiu took a sip of the homemade honey pomelo water in the store, obviously added so much honey, but he still felt so sour.
