The general is always teased

It was still early, and it was barely past noon. There were not many people eating in the restaurant, and nearly half of the dozen or so tables and chairs placed inside were empty.

Seeing them coming in, the waiter who was lazy at first rushed up to greet them, led them to an empty table, and asked with a smile on his face, "What do you two guests want?"

Silently counting the money in her purse in her heart, Shen Yijin hesitated, then turned to look at Shi Nanyue who was sitting beside her, and asked him, "What do you want to eat?"

Even though he was very reluctant to lose his purse, but Shi Nanyue helped him just now, in return, he shouldn't be too stingy, he should treat the other party to a good meal.

As for the guests, it is natural to order Shi Nanyue's favorite food.

Shi Nanyue is well aware of Shen Yijin's love for money, and after realizing his own intentions, he has been watching Shen Yijin all the time, so naturally he didn't miss his flashing distressed expression at this moment.

With smiles in his eyes, Shi Nanyue raised his lips, smiled at him, and said softly: "I don't like food, brother Shen, you can decide."

He couldn't bear to see Xiao Xiucai showing a melancholy expression.

He just wanted to see Xiao Xiucai happy and cheerful.

Hearing this, Shen Yijin thought for a while and thought it was okay, so she nodded slightly. He remained silent, recalling Shi Nanyue's taboos and his usual favorite tastes, then looked up at the waiter at the side, and asked him: "What signature dishes do you have here?"

"We have a lot of signature dishes in our restaurant, please listen carefully, guest officer." The waiter in the shop smiled, and after speaking, he then announced a series of dish names, speaking very fast but clearly understandable.

After listening to it, Shen Yijin ordered three of the well-named and more homely dishes, thought for a while, and ordered another pot of plum blossom brew.

Seeing that Shen Yijin also ordered wine, Shi Nanyue's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and he asked, "Will Brother Shen drink?"

Shen Yijin shook her head and said with a smile: "I don't know how to do it, but this plum blossom wine is unique to Hangzhou. I don't think you have tasted it before. I want you to taste it." After a pause, he continued: "Since we are friends, you don't have to call me so out of hand, brother Shen. Brother Lin calls me Xiaojin, so you can call me Xiaojin too."

After hearing what Shi Nanyue said, the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but widened. He nodded and said softly, "Okay, I'll call you Xiaojin from now on."

While they were talking, the shop waiter had already brought up the plum blossom wine. After setting up the wine glasses, he placed a few small pieces of plum blossom cakes in front of each of them, topped with a fresh plum blossom.

Shi Nanyue looked at it, a little puzzled.

Seeing Shi Nanyue's doubtful expression and his incomprehensible look, the shop clerk laughed and asked, "Isn't the guest officer from Hangzhou?"

Shi Nanyue nodded, and asked him again, "What is the allusion to this?"

The waiter shook his head and explained: "It's not that there is any allusion, it's just that this plum blossom wine is different from other wines. It tastes very bitter. Only by eating it with this plum blossom cake can you taste the sweetness in it."

After speaking, he was called by a new customer who entered the store.

After the shop waiter left, Shen Yijin blinked at Shi Nanyue, smiled and said: "What he said is wrong, there is actually an allusion to it."

Hearing this, Shi Nanyue became interested, he raised one hand to rest his chin, and looked at Shen Yijin with a smile, his eyes were full of tenderness.

Being watched so intently by Shi Nanyue, Shen Yijin felt a little shy for some reason, and his cheeks became hot. He lowered his head, poured himself a glass of wine and drank it down, and only opened his mouth when the wine was strong. .

"According to legend, this plum blossom brew was brewed by a woman who missed her husband who was far away in the border town. Recalling that when I was with my wife, I felt sweet, and because they met, met, and fell in love all in Meilin, I personally made this pastry to express my emotions."

Tilting her head and smiling at Shi Nanyue, Shen Yijin concluded after a while: "Thus, once the two are combined, it will taste like reunion, and it is sweet, so the bitter plum blossom brew will become delicious and sweet. .”

After he finished speaking, he looked at Shi Nanyue without blinking, with a small smile on his brows, like a child offering treasures.

Looking at the little scholar in front of him, Shi Nanyue found him more and more cute, and his heart was so excited that he just wanted to hug him tightly and kiss him.Thinking of this, Shi Nanyue's eyes gradually became darker.

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Shi Nanyue stretched out his hand, and touched Shen Yijin's head affectionately, then poured a glass of wine for himself and Shen Yijin, and said with a smile in the corner of his eyes, "So, Xiaojin will drink a glass with me."

Shen Yijin didn't refuse, he picked up the wine glass with a smile, and drank with Shi Nanyue.

Seeing Shen Yijin drink the wine, the smile in Shi Nanyue's eyes grew stronger, and at the same time he added in his heart: "For us to meet."

The two sipped the wine and chatted very comfortably. Not long after, the waiter in the shop brought up the three dishes they ordered.

The chef of this restaurant obviously put a lot of thought into cooking the dishes. The color, aroma and taste of these three dishes are all complete. Not only does it look comfortable, it smells delicious, and it is also so delicious that people want to swallow their tongues.

It was rare for Shen Yijin to eat two bowls of rice with vegetables, and after eating, her stomach felt a little full.

Rubbing her stomach uncomfortably, Shen Yijin frowned slightly, feeling that it was really uncomfortable to be full.

Shi Nanyue propped his face with one hand, and looked at Shen Yijin with a smile, although he was rubbing his belly, but his eyes were still on the last piece of ribs, his face was full of reluctance, he couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, picked up the chopsticks and ate it, "Let's go back .”

Seeing that Shi Nanyue had eaten it, Shen Yijin laughed with satisfaction. He called Xiaoer to count the money, and after hearing how much money he wanted, he took out his purse, counted enough copper coins and went out.

Shi Nanyue watched him fascinated from the sidelines, and felt that the more he watched, the more he liked it, and every day he liked it more than the day before.

Coming out of the restaurant, Shen Yijin remembered that there were still things she needed, so she turned around and went to South Street again. He was going to Wenmozhai to buy some rice paper and inkstones, but the ones at home had already been used up.

Naturally, Shi Nanyue also went with him.

South Street and East Street are not far away, and they will arrive soon. Just as soon as he stepped into this street, Shi Nanyue noticed that there were people lurking around, watching them secretly, and there were quite a few of them.

Glancing worriedly at Shen Yijin beside him, Shi Nanyue frowned, stretched out his hand to hold Shen Yijin's hand, leaned into his ear, and told him in a low voice: "Xiaojin, someone is watching us, be careful, you And remember, no matter what happens, you must never leave my side."

Shen Yijin was stunned for a moment when she heard the words. Anyway, after coming here, she also knew that her safety was at stake, so she suppressed her smile, nodded solemnly and said, "I see."

At the same time, in a private room on the second floor of a restaurant not far away, the third master was leaning against the window with a jug in his hand, his eyes were looking down, and it happened to fall on Shi Nanyue and Shen Yijin.

Seeing them, the third master was startled, then narrowed his eyes again.

He first looked at Shen Yijin, but although he was looking at Shen Yijin, his eyes passed through Shen Yijin, as if he saw the person he once loved, unconsciously, his eyes were stained with nostalgia, After a while, it all turned into resentment.

He looked at Shen Yijin with complicated eyes for a while, then looked away, and then looked at Shi Nanyue beside him. After seeing Shi Nanyue's appearance clearly, he frowned.

He felt that Shi Nanyue looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, so he touched his chin and fell into deep thought. The next moment, his eyes suddenly widened, and his face became ugly.

He recognized Shi Nanyue's identity.
