Riding the Wind and Waves Twelve Hairpins

Liu Niang is an old employee of the Shunde porridge shop at No. 55 Daguan Road. She doesn't like to talk, so no one in the shop knows her story.

Liu Niang was beautiful in her previous life, but unfortunately her family was too poor, and she dropped out of high school before finishing high school. Her parents decided to marry her to Liu Gong, an honest man from the neighboring village.The two were still in love, but they had been married for many years, and Liu Niang failed to give birth to a son and a half daughter, which became a headache for both parents.

And that Liugong drives big trucks, earns a living by hauling goods, travels all over the world, wind and rain, and although he doesn’t stay at home all year round, he is loyal to Liu Niang, and he has never heard of any romantic scandals or scandals. Gossip.

It's a pity that Liu Niang is a miserable person. The honest man Liu Gong was dazzled by the high beam headlights on the other side of the highway, kicked the accelerator, and rushed directly into the green belt in the middle of the road.

Most of the goods were scrapped, and LiuGong died. Although it was over, Liu Niang had to bear all the responsibilities for supporting the elderly and the huge compensation demanded by the transportation company.

Luckily, Liu Niang learned a good skill at the Shunde porridge shop. She is the oldest employee in the shop, the latest to get off work, and the best congee cooking skills.

Even though it was the middle of winter this night, Daguan Road was equally lively, with the lights of the shops shining in the dots of remnant snow, and the atmosphere of the world was everywhere.The smell of fireworks from barbecue stalls and stewed vegetable shops is lingering in the wind, and the human voice is mixed with local dialect, with crisp cursing.

In the porridge shop in Shunde at night, there are middle-aged people who are off the night shift wrapping up their jackets and plodding to buy dinner. Strange and novel.

Therefore, when Liu Niang walked into the front hall from the kitchen of the porridge shop and saw a beautiful woman in a red feather cloak and a handsome man in a white fur robe opened the door and walked in side by side, she didn't feel any difference.

Daiyu followed Bei Jingxing Jun, looked around, found a relatively clean table and chair by the door and sat down.

The store is not big, and the decoration is not luxurious. It has a retro rustic taste. The four walls of the store are paved with exquisitely carved wooden boards, or "flowing clouds and a hundred bats", or "Three Friends of Sui Han", or landscape figures, or feathers and flowers , or Jiji, or Bogu, or Wanfu Wanshou, all kinds of tricks are covered with a thin layer of greasy.

"Waiter, order." Bei Jingxing Jun took off his outer robe, raised his hand to Liu Niang, and tilted his head as a gesture.

Liu Niang held the shorthand board between her hands, walked over in silence with no expression on her face, and put the oil-stained menu in her hand on the table in front of Daiyu.

Daiyu was a bit of a clean freak, so naturally she didn't look at the menu in front of her, but raised her head and looked carefully at Liu Niang's face.

The moment she entered the Shunde porridge shop, she felt that Liu Niang's eyes were familiar. Now that she looked at it carefully, she realized that Liu Niang's brows and eyes were really beautiful, and she was somewhat similar to Liu Wu'er.

Mr. Bei Jingxing didn't look at the menu, but raised his head and said to Liu Niang who was holding a shorthand board: "Two pots of porridge, one catty of beef belly, one serving of shrimp slippery, one plate of pork ribs and Chencun noodles, one serving of melon, and a bottle of rice noodles. Moutai, help us get two more clean cups, thank you."

Aunt Liu nodded and returned to the back kitchen.After a while, two alcohol stoves were placed on the table, the flames lit up, and the white porridge in the burning casserole bubbled up.

Daiyu looked carefully at the bottom of the porridge, probably there were red dates, tangerine peel, astragalus and other warming and refreshing herbs.

Liu Niang brought up two more plates of beef slices mixed with eggs, her eyes drooped, and she repeated her lines hundreds of times like an announcement: "Shoot the beef and egg liquid together, rinse as much as you eat, and eat as much as you want. Don’t put all the beef in the pot at once, after the beef and shrimp are slippery, add shredded melon, put it in the porridge and cook for a minute and turn off the fire.”

Bei Jing Xingjun smiled and said "I know", after Liu Niang stepped back, he filled the two cheap white jade porcelain cups in front of him, put one in front of Daiyu, and kept the other in his hand, Then he took the cup in his hand and lightly bumped the cup in front of Daiyu, there was a jingle, and the wine in the cup rippled slightly.

"Slang in the world, beef with Moutai, Xiao Jin will come soon." Bei Jingxing smiled and read the slogan posted on the wall.

Daiyu raised her eyebrows with a startled look on her face, she had never heard this kind of common saying from the crane-like figure in front of her, she was amazed and even found it fresh and funny.

Bei Jing Xingjun took a sip of the wine in his glass, and said: "I often come down to this mortal world alone, drink two glasses of wine and eat some food, but I also feel unique. Sometimes when I get drunk, I can drink Put aside the trivial matters in your mind for the time being, but the alcohol content in this world is quite high, and Fairy Crimson Pearl drinks slowly."

Daiyu also took a sip, put down the cup, and followed what Liu Niang said, and put a piece of beef wrapped in egg liquid into the white porridge in the pot.

For a while there was nothing on the table, only the clinking of cups and chopsticks and the sound of eating congee and powder.

After half a round of drinking, the host and guests were all happy, so Bei Jingxing Jun asked: "Did Fairy Jiangzhu pay attention to the aunt who brought the dishes?"

Daiyu blinked, and her face was as gorgeous as pearls against the unknown lights of the porridge shop, "I feel a little familiar."

Bei Jing Xingjun shook the chopsticks in his hand, and gently shook the slices of meat between the chopsticks, "Her name is Liu Niang. In her previous life, she was a woman in the kitchen of the Grand View Garden and the mother of Liu Wu'er. In this life, she is also a hard-working person. Nian lost her husband, had no children, and was burdened with a huge amount of compensation. I feel sorry for her, so I often come here to spend money, hoping to give her some financial support in a way she can accept."

Bei Jingxing took a look, saw Liu Niang entered the back kitchen, raised his brows, took a piece of jade from his sleeve, hid it under the plate, and wrote another note "This is a tip for you" , set aside.

Daiyu was slightly surprised, then nodded: "I only thought you were a cold fairy before, but now that I see it, I understand too little."

Bei Jing Xingjun smiled, then picked up Daiyu's chopsticks, put a slice of hot beef into the bowl, and passed it over, "The beef is cooked, let's taste it."

His sleeves stretched out from the opposite side, with the scent of dried herbs in the sleeves, as calm as water, being baked by the steam of the hot porridge, it spread out in all directions, Daiyu only felt that the scent had grown eyes and went straight to her nose drill.

Daiyu reached out to take the bowl, and the quiet aroma seemed to invade the aroma of porridge and meat, making Daiyu feel her blood surging for a moment. She took off the crane cloak inside the white fox with the big red feather veil, put on only a small shirt, and Feeling shy, he covered his reddish face and said, "This anger is so hot, it's so hot."

Bei Jing Xingjun looked at the peach blossom-like fresh and charming face opposite him, and remembered that when he was young in his previous life, he was still the heir who had not been crowned king, and it was also in the middle of winter, sitting in front of a pot of gurgling hot porridge, his mother The concubine sat opposite and served him rice soup that had been whitened overnight.

And that day, he was sitting opposite his mother eating porridge, and he heard people talking about Jia Min, the youngest daughter of Jia Jiarong's mansion, who married Lin Ruhai last year and gave birth to a girl not long ago, whose maiden name is Dai. Jade.

That was the first time the word "Daiyu" appeared in Beijing Xingjun's memory. It was not a refined name, but he remembered it for several years.

Later, when she heard that Jia Min passed away, Lin Ruhai was unable to take care of her daughter, so Daiyu went to live in Jia's mansion.It happened that Qin Keqing was going to mourn, so he set up a special road sacrifice, set up a colorful shed beside the road, held a banquet, played music in harmony, mourned and offered condolences, but he didn't have the chance to see the soul of flowers.

The two of them didn't speak, just lowered their heads to eat meat and porridge. Shrimp paste and shredded cucumbers were poured into the pot, and Moutai also drank half of it.

Daiyu kept nodding while eating shredded melon, Bei Jingxing Jun smiled when she saw this, "Isn't there something sweet?"

Daiyu just nodded, her eyes were as clear as water, but Bei Jingxing Jun suddenly remembered the round fan with the words on it that he had picked up, and asked, "Did you write the words on that fan?"

Daiyu was stunned for a while before realizing that he was referring to the fan with the poem, and swallowed the shrimp in her mouth, "I wrote it myself."

"Words are like a book, muffled like a breeze, and you can articulate and sing sweetly when you read it." Lord Bei Jingxing praised.

"If Xing Jun likes it, I will send someone to give you the fan." Daiyu buried her head in the bowl without looking up.

"Send me?" Bei Jingxing asked suspiciously.

"Yes." Daiyu nodded.

Mr. Bei Jingxing has never received a gift from a woman, let alone that person is the one he loves in his heart. When he came back to his senses for a while, he felt his heart beating wildly, and he was afraid that Daiyu would see his gaffe At this moment, he raised his head and glanced at the opposite side, and saw Daiyu lowered her head, still tasting the porridge in the bowl.

Mr. Bei Jingxing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and scolded himself in his heart: "He just gave you a fan on a sudden idea, what are you thinking about?"

At the end of the meal, Mr. Bei Jingxing paid the money, and the two walked outside the shop, only to hear Liu Niang in the shop behind her go to the table, tidy up the dishes, and found the jade jade hidden under the dishes and the The note, let out an exclamation of joy.

Daiyu burst out laughing, in the sky full of fireworks, she couldn't see the bright starlight in the sky, but Mr. Bei Jingxing felt that the smile on Daiyu's lips was more dazzling than any starlight.

When they arrived outside the courtyard on the bank of the Ling River, the two of them stood side by side on the river bank, chatting casually about the situation of the last round of performances, and they were all lingering, not looking up at the sky above.

Daiyu kicked the broken stones on the bank with the toe of her shoe, and "plopped" into the clear water, causing a circle of ripples.However, the sky is gradually clear, and someone else will come out to take a car to release Chunshan.Bei Jing Xingjun walked in front of Daiyu, she didn't dare to look at him, she felt his white gown move at the corner of her eyes, she thought he was going to leave, she raised her head suddenly, and met his eyes.

Bei Jing Xingjun smiled and said: "I'm leaving, see you in groups later."

Daiyu nodded, and didn't see her off or say goodbye. The sky at dawn was light gray and blue. She stared at the figure of Mr. Bei Jingxing walking out along the river. The shadow was so lonely and long.

To know the end, let's see the decomposition in the next chapter.
