Bao Ye

Wangyuelou is the largest and tallest restaurant in Yuecheng. It has a long history and has had four generations of owners.

When you enter the hall and look up, you can see the inscription written by the former emperor. The handwriting is flying and flying, and there is a seal on the lower right. It is the most proud collection of the owner of Wangyuelou.

When the dinner was busy, the sound of cups being pushed and changed in the hall was endless, and the troupe on the stage was singing to the climax, which attracted applause from the audience. From time to time, someone threw money, flowers and some small objects onto the stage to show their support and favorite.

The clerk at the door, with a towel on his shoulder, is bending slightly to carefully lead the guests to the box on the top floor. The stairs are on the side of the door, and you can go up from the left and right sides separately, without going through the hall on the first floor, so no one finds the inside of the restaurant. Someone is here.

The lively applause sounded like thunder, and the child in Chi Yunfei's arms was startled, and sneakily lay on Chi Yunfei's shoulder and poked his head out.

The waiter took a careful look, and said with a smile: "The boss has invited people from the 'Jinfu Class' to sing a new play these two days. The downstairs is so lively, but the upstairs is very quiet, and the young master will never be disturbed."

Chi Yunfei helped Yang Yang pull up the small hood behind the cloak, covering his hairy head, and said with a smile, "It's okay."

Wen Xinyang walked in front with a blank expression on his face. It was rare for him to take his family out for dinner. He only wore casual clothes, and the suit pants were tailored to make his legs look slender. Black delicate dial.

Chi Yunfei often comes here to have dinner with his brothers on weekdays. Because he likes to be lively, he often sits and listens to plays in the hall. When he is interested, he will reward some gold and silver jewelry. Everyone in Wangyuelou knows Master Chi. When he came, everyone greeted him.

When we reached the top of the building, we could hardly hear the movement downstairs in the private room. Looking out from the open window, we could see the night view of Yuecheng, thousands of miles of lights, winding out a galaxy belonging to the ground, and further away we could see The moat to Yuecheng has a little ripple under the moonlight, like a big fish waking up from a deep sleep, drying its scales under the moonlight.

The painting boat turned into one or two small red dots in the distance, and the night wind hit people's faces in the chill, which made people clear their minds. Taking a deep breath made the dull body swell up, and the faint plum fragrance mixed with the fragrance of the building. The taste of selling sugar water with a burden is refreshing.

"Be careful of catching a cold." Wen Xinyang took off his coat and hung it on the hanger behind the door, brought a hot towel over to wipe Yang Yang's face, and closed half of the window.

Yang Yang raised his head and wiped his face obediently, then wiped his hands with a towel, a little girl outside came in to serve tea with a blushing face, brought some sweets and snacks in front of the young master, and said in a gentle voice: "The boss sent this specially , take it easy, young master."

Yangyang picked up a piece of snack, and happily said "ah" to Chi Yunfei.

Chi Yunfei leaned against the window and made a gesture: "What do you want to tell my sister?"

Yang Yang turned back, took another candy and put it in the little girl's hand, and said childishly, "Thank you!"

The little girl was overwhelmed by the flattery, she bent down to thank her, then stepped back, closed the door and left.

Wen Xinyang stood behind Chi Yunfei and looked at the night scene outside—it was actually the first time he went out to eat after returning to China for so long, and he felt that he was taking over official duties and preparing to get married a few days ago. Almost forgot what life was like.

"I asked them to prepare a signature dish." Wen Xinyang said, "If you like it, let them add it."

"No need." Chi Yunfei was sweet in his heart, with a smile on his lips all the time, "The signature dish is very good, have you never been here before?"

"No."

"Then I have to recommend you well..." Chi Yunfei chattered endlessly, from delicious food to delicious wine, to gossip at the boss's house, and all kinds of news about Jin Fuban .

"I heard that they have a new show before." Chi Yunfei said, "I didn't expect it to be played so soon. There is a famous actor in the Jinfu class, who is very famous in the whole three provinces, and he sings very well."

Wen Xinyang said "Oh?": "Do you often listen to it?"

"Occasionally." Chi Yunfei said, "I'll only go when he's around."

Wen Xinyang narrowed his eyes: "Singing what?"

"Danjiao." Chi Yunfei walked to the table and sat down, picked up a peanut and ate it, and said, "The little flower Dan in Jinfu class is Ning Wanxiang, have you heard of it?"

Even if Wen Xinyang doesn't listen to opera and lives abroad all year round, he has indeed heard of this name.

Not to mention, he is quite famous.

"Xiao Tang likes his appearance very much." Chi Yunfei tsk-tsk ate peanuts, "Every time I come back, I give him a bunch of gifts, but they never remember him. But Ning Wanxiang is really good-looking, then Daliu puts it on, and then puts on makeup, hey..."

Wen Xinyang pulled the chair and sat down, leaned on the back of the chair and looked at him: "Hey what?"

Chi Yunfei thought for a while: "Yuan Ling from Nanfeng Pavilion is already famous in Yuecheng, but his appearance is a bit worse than Ning Wanxiang."

The former is a temperament accustomed to wind and dust, while the latter is as clear and meaningful as a lotus flower, making one feel like a spring breeze.Although the beauty in the world has its own advantages, Chi Yunfei prefers the latter.

Wen Xinyang opened his mouth, but didn't say anything - he never had the habit of talking about another man's appearance with others, so he didn't know how to answer the conversation at this time.

But Chi Yunfei changed the subject and flattered him again: "Of course, no one here can compare to Brother Shen! Whether it's Yuan Ling or Ning Wanxiang, they can't even compare to a strand of your hair! Shen Brother is the prettiest!"

Wen Xinyang was immediately amused, and wanted to say, what is better between men?But Chi Yunfei boasted sincerely, his eyes seemed to be full of starlight, making him swallow the words when he reached his mouth.

All right, it looks good.

"Then do you want to go down to listen to the opera?" Wen Xinyang asked, "Is Ning Wanxiang here today?"

"Should I come?" Chi Yunfei said, "I won't go, I want to accompany you and Yangyang."

A meal is enjoyable, Wen Xinyang eats and sleeps without talking, his family education is very good, even the chopsticks don't touch the bowls and chopsticks when eating, Wen Nianyang was also educated and brought up like this since he was a child, a pair of chubby hands holding a spoon He ate very quietly and well-behaved, eating slowly one bite at a time, chewing enough times before swallowing, already at a young age the reserved style of the Wen family.

Only Chi Yunfei ate lively by himself, talking while eating, and helping the two of them at the same time.

"It's delicious! I have to order it every time I come!"

"Yangyang eat this, the meat is tender and delicious!"

"This dish was created by them last year. It's not bad. I'm still discussing with their chef. Try this sweet and sour taste, is it suitable?"

Chi Yunfei's food was so delicious that Wen Xinyang also whetted his appetite. Just looking at Chi Yunfei's mouth can be eaten as a meal.

There's no way, Master Chi's food is so delicious, it makes people enjoy watching it!

After eating and drinking enough, Chi Yunfei drank a few more glasses, his face flushed a little, and he sat by the window with Yang Yang in his arms, eating snacks and watching the night scene.

There was a lot of traffic downstairs, and there was a long queue at the door, all of them wanted to come to listen to the show and eat.

Jinfuban has its own theater on weekdays, but Wangyuelou has a good relationship with their boss, and the prices are reasonable. They are occasionally invited to come on stage, and there are some stand-alone talkers during the breaks. At that time, the peanut melon seed mung bean cake in the hall was selling very well.

A rickshaw ran past under the red lanterns, the bell rang crisply, and the driver yelled at the top of his voice, "Let's make it——!"

The stall selling candied haws and sugar water under the wall surrounded many children. Yang Yang stepped on Chi Yunfei's knee and watched curiously. He had hardly played with his peers. It's like blowing him up and it's about to fall apart.Therefore, I am particularly curious about my peers.

Chi Yunfei hugged his waist to prevent the little guy from falling out of the window, while chatting with Wen Xinyang.

It was rare for them to have such a relaxed chat for a while, it was all trivial and out of tune things, going here and there for a while, jumping very fast.

Wen Xinyang sat on the side, occasionally answering once or twice, but Chi Yunfei could go on talking on his own without feeling embarrassed at all.

Wen Xinyang was tired for a few days. Hearing Chi Yunfei's chattering voice, he gradually became sleepy. He felt very relaxed all over his body, and he didn't remember when he fell asleep.

When he woke up, the restaurant was about to close, and the curfew was almost over, there were few people downstairs, and Chi Yunfei and Yang Yang were not in the box either.

He wiped his face and got up, only to find himself covered with a thin blanket and a soft pillow behind his head.

It was so strange that he didn't notice it.

He poured himself a cup of tea and drank it. The tea was a bit cold, just enough to wake him up.

Then he walked out of the room, borrowed a towel to wipe his face, and asked Chi Yunfei's whereabouts.

"Master Chi is downstairs with the young master." The waiter said respectfully, "Don't worry, general, there is no one downstairs, so you won't bump into the young master."

Wen Xinyang nodded and walked down the stairs, and saw Chi Yunfei who was chatting happily with someone in the hall.

Wen Nianyang was playing with another child at the side, that child looked a few years older than Wen Nianyang, wearing troupe clothes and a hat on his head, and was turning flower ropes with Yangyang.

It was Wen Nianyang's first time playing this game, and it was very strange, his fleshy little hands seemed a little clumsy, but he learned quickly, and Chi Yunfei praised him from time to time.

And standing next to Chi Yunfei was a man with a jade face and a scholarly face, tall and slender, with fairer and more tender skin than Chi Yunfei, with a pair of peach blossom eyes and a little silkworm when he smiled, and he seemed to have a good temper.

"Brother Shen!" Seeing him, Chi Yunfei hurriedly waved, "Are you awake? Did you sleep well?"

Wen Xinyang walked over and rubbed his son's head: "Why don't you wake me up?"

"Seeing that you are very tired, I want you to take a good rest." Chi Yunfei took his hand and introduced, "This is Ning Wanxiang, Master Ning, I'm just listening to him talk about a new play, it's interesting gone."

Ning Wanxiang saluted and said, "General Wen."

Wen Xinyang waved his hands to signal that there is no need to be too polite. Seeing that Chi Yunfei was chatting happily with the other party, he couldn't get in the way for a while, so he sat aside to accompany his son.

He leaned against the table, his legs stretched naturally, he looked a little lazy just after waking up, but his momentum remained undiminished. Chi Yunfei glanced at him while chatting, his eyes almost overflowing with love.

Ning Wanxiang saw it clearly, and said amusedly: "It was said that you didn't want to marry when you made a fuss, but now you like it so much?"

"Some people have certain things. Before you meet them, you always think that you have been right all your life." Chi Yunfei snorted and touched his nose, "So people can't say too much when they say and do things."

"That's a good statement." Ning Wanxiang had a deep meaning, "Master Chi never leaves anyone behind. You should say this to yourself twice more."

Chi Yunfei clicked his tongue: "Tear me down?"

Ning Wanxiang was much taller than Chi Yunfei, she looked down at him and said, "Where's Xiaotang? Why haven't I seen him recently?"

"He's busy. I have something for him to do." Chi Yunfei squinted at him, "Don't you always forget people's names? So it was on purpose? Is it childish?"

"He's so fun to tease." Ning Wanxiang was handsome and handsome, with a dusty temperament, her hair was combed meticulously, she stood there in a suit like some handsome young man, but when she spoke, she had a dark belly. There was a smile in his eyes, "Like a puppy raised in a theater, it's very deceiving."

Chi Yunfei: "..."

Now that Wen Xinyang woke up, Chi Yunfei didn't stay any longer, bid farewell to Ning Wanxiang and left with the general.

After leaving the restaurant, the cool breeze outside made people wake up a lot. The night was quiet, and the bright moon shone on the ground. From a distance, it looked like a large white river beach projected on the stone road.

Tired from playing, Yang Yang fell asleep in Wen Xinyang's arms.

Wen Xinyang took a few steps and said, "I'll go back to the barracks tomorrow, you..."

Chi Yunfei looked at him and smiled: "What's the matter? It's lonely and cold in the barracks alone? Do you want me to continue to accompany you?"

Wen Xinyang turned his head and coughed, and said uncomfortably: "I saw your friends everywhere, and I want you to pay attention..."

"Yes, yes." Chi Yunfei raised his eyebrows, "I'm already married, so I have to maintain a proper relationship, right?"

Wen Xinyang hesitated to speak, passing by the paulownia tree on their wedding day, he still vividly remembered the wedding ceremony.

That day he rode a horse to pick up Chi Yunfei. Chi Yunfei was dressed in a bright red wedding dress, with a bright smile and star-like eyes, but he said a lot of indifferent words to him.

He suddenly said: "I was wrong about what happened before."

Chi Yunfei: "?"

"It's your personal freedom to make friends. I just... care too much about the Wen family's reputation, and I'm afraid you will cause trouble." Wen Xinyang said, "I've been with you for so long, and I know you're not the kind of person that the outside rumors say , you have your own principles."

Wen Xinyang pondered for a moment, and said with some determination, "I won't restrict you like this in the future, you can do what you want. But you must take care of yourself, calm down when things happen, and don't be impulsive..."

After the words were lost, Chi Yunfei jumped on the general's back with a run-up, Wen Xinyang was almost strangled and fell down, Yang Yang also woke up, poked his head out of Wen Xinyang's arms, and met his brother Chi.

"Brother Chi?"

"Hey!" Chi Yunfei's nose was a little sore, and he laughed like he was about to cry, "Brother Chi is tired from walking, can you let Dad carry it?"

Yang Yang was very generous to others, and patted his father on the shoulder: "Okay! Dad can recite it!"

Wen Xinyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he held one in his arms and another on his back, and walked home slowly under the moonlight.

Chi Yunfei whispered in his ear, "Brother Shen, I like you the most."

Wen Xinyang felt his ears itchy and the back of his neck turned red, but he couldn't be seen in the dark.
