Rebirth of Tao Yao

The early summer morning is not yet contaminated by the heat, and the sun is shining on the street, coating everything under the morning light with a layer of golden brilliance.

The proprietress moved a chair and sat at the entrance of the restaurant. The rising sun in the early morning just happened to shine on her head-on, making her feel warm and comfortable.She narrowed her eyes slightly, casually picked up a piece of light yellow steamed cake from the plate she was holding and put it into her mouth.The steamed cake is cut to the right size, and the steamed cake itself is so soft that it almost melts in the mouth. The light sweetness accompanied by the aroma of eggs spreads quickly in the mouth...

It's just an ordinary dim sum, but the proprietress ate it with gusto, and she even fell out of favor with the breakfast steamed buns that she had loved for many years—since she knew that Qin Yunshu's pastries were better than meals, her breakfast I changed it to the pastry brought by Qin Yunshu. Although it was the only one, it was also in the honor of Wen Ziran who was left alone at home.

The business of restaurants in the early morning is deserted, because most people will choose to eat at home, and the rest who can't cook are more willing to settle at roadside stalls.After all, there are steamed stuffed buns, porridge and pancakes on the stalls, but they are more delicious than restaurants.

The second brother came over early in the morning and wiped all the tables and chairs in the restaurant. There are no customers in the restaurant at the moment, so it is rare to have free time.He squatted on the steps in front of the restaurant, turned his head to look at the proprietress... the pastry in his arms, he smacked his lips, and finally couldn't help but leaned forward and said: "Madam proprietress, I haven't had breakfast this morning, you How about sharing this steamed cake with me?"

The proprietress opened her slightly narrowed eyes immediately, and when she turned her head to look at Xiao Er, she even made a gesture of protecting food. She waved her hand impatiently: "Go, go, go to the bun shop next door to buy two buns without eating. , you don’t even have these two coins, do you?”

Xiaoer curled his lips when he heard this, the restaurant paid enough, he didn't need the two cents to buy buns.However, every day he could see the proprietress hugging the pastries brought by Sister Qin and eating happily. He was somewhat curious about how delicious these pastries were?It's a pity that the proprietress is so stingy, and she still likes to eat alone. It's been so many days, and he can't even get a bite of pastry crumbs!

Seeing how stingy the proprietress is, today is a dead end.

Xiao Er patted the hem of his clothes and stood up, just about to obey the proprietress's order and go to the steamed bun shop next door to buy two steamed buns to sacrifice to the Wu Zang Temple, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Qin Yunshu in the shop waving at him.Xiao Er's eyes lit up immediately, and he glanced carefully at the proprietress who was protecting the food, and ran into the shop on tiptoe.

The proprietress was stingy about protecting food, but Qin Yunshu obviously didn't.After all, it's just a few pieces of pastries, and it's not a problem to make more, not to mention that the people in the restaurant have always been very kind to her, and it's a token of appreciation for her to bring them some food.So this morning she woke up a quarter of an hour earlier, made an extra steamed cake, and brought it to the waiter and helpers in the store.

When Xiaoer got the pack of steamed cakes that were no less than the proprietress’s plate, he was so moved that he almost cried, and wanted to show it off in front of the proprietress—of course he was just thinking about it, otherwise he would be so angry because of the gangster in the proprietress’s bones. , he really wants to do this, I believe the proprietress will not even leave him a piece of oil paper to wrap the pastry!

Qin Yunshu was amused by the rich expression on Xiao Er's face, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Wang, if you like these pastries, I will bring some more from now on and share some with you."

Xiaoer smiled resentfully when he heard the words, and hurriedly waved his hands and said, "How can I make Miss Qin spend money? I'm just curious because the proprietress eats so deliciously every day. It's enough to taste this once today, Miss Qin Don't worry about me." In fact, he doesn't like sweets very much, and Qin Yunshu's pastries are almost all sweet, so it's not polite to say that he only tastes them.

Qin Yunshu didn't force himself when he heard the words, the two said a few more words and then dispersed.

The proprietress at the door stared at Qin Yunshu's back until she could no longer see her before she silently looked away.She stuffed another piece of steamed cake into her mouth, but chewed it hard, feeling a little suffocated for some reason, even looking at the mistress who had been employed for many years became unpleasant...

At this moment, the proprietress who sat back on the chair looked at the street in front of the door, and her chewing movement suddenly stopped.

After a while, she blinked her eyes, got up and ran into the restaurant, so frightened that Xiaoer, who was stealing food, almost choked. back kitchen.

***************************************************************************

Now that the words have been spoken, Yan Li has no more worries, and it is not a lie to say that he will take Wen Ziran on a horse for fun-in fact, he has never gotten along with girls, except for taking people to ride horses to satisfy curiosity , I really don't know what to do.

Of course Wen Ziran is aware of Yan Li's clumsiness in this regard, in fact, she doesn't mind what to do, as long as she stays with her elder brother, even if the two of them sit in the yard without saying a word, it's fine.Therefore, Wen Ziran did not refuse the proposal of riding a horse, although she was not suitable for riding a horse because of her blindness... and about the golden horse, she still needed to mention it to her elder brother.

Because of this, the two "hit it off", and Yan Li was so happy that he went to help Wen Ziran mount the horse, but found that the golden horse was too tall and Wen Ziran was blind and couldn't see.And because the golden horse was newly tamed by him, it was obviously untamed towards others, so it was impossible for it to bend its knees for people to ride. Maybe it would do something while Wen Ziran climbed on the horse, so that the little girl would not be surprised again. alright.

Thinking of this, Yan Li hesitated for a moment and did not move.

Wen Ziran obviously noticed it, so he turned his head and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"

Yan Lishen still wanted to get close to Wen Ziran, so he shook his head and said, "It's okay."

After saying this, he had an idea in his mind.Turning his head and looking around, seeing that there were no pedestrians on the street at the moment, he felt relieved—although he said before that he didn’t care about gossip, but such things can still be avoided—then suddenly bent down and put his arms around On the girl's back, one hand hooked the girl's knees, and just hugged her horizontally.

Wen Ziran obviously did not expect this encounter, and had never experienced such an experience in two lifetimes. The sudden sense of weightlessness made her let out a low exclamation.Then the girl quickly touched the boy's neck, and wrapped her arms around it.

The corners of Yan Li's lips were rarely curved, and a smile flashed across his cold eyes, and he couldn't explain why he liked Wen Ziran's calm appearance at this moment.It seemed that even that little exclamation seemed to become cute in his ears, unlike other girls who would make a fuss and scream at every turn, making people's ears hurt from the noise.

Because of selfishness that he didn't realize, Yan Li paused for a moment before explaining: "Zi Ran, don't panic. It's just that my new golden horse is taller than ordinary horses, and you can't see it..."

Speaking of this, Yan Li's words stopped abruptly, realizing that he might have poked someone's scar by a slip of the tongue.

The little general seemed quite cautious, but Wen Ziran didn't seem to notice it.Her hands tightly around Yan Li's neck hadn't loosened yet, but the body held in Yan Li's arms had actually relaxed.In fact, she doesn't need Yan Li's consolation, as long as she smells the familiar scent of this man, all anxiety and confusion will fade away, and she even misses this hug a little bit.

Yan Li secretly observed Wen Ziran's expression, and seeing that she was indeed not displeased by what she said, she continued: "This horse is too tall and wild, I'm afraid you might startle when you get on the horse, so I might as well hug you Go up." After he finished speaking, he paused, and then asked belatedly: "You, am I being a bit rude like this, you won't be angry, will you?"

The little general, who hadn't gotten along with girls much since he was a child, looked a little edgy, and he was a little silly when he spoke, which was a look Wen Ziran had never seen before.

The girl is delighted to discover a new side of her brother, and she will not reject her closeness.She would not pretend to be reserved, and secretly leaned her head on Yan Li's shoulder, saying: "No." After speaking, she emphasized: "Brother, I won't be angry at anything."

Yan Li blinked, feeling that the little girl had something to say, but he didn't go into it.After all, it's not good to stand on the street with someone in your arms all the time. Who knows if someone will open the door at this time, or come from the corner of the street?So he walked steadily to the golden horse with Wen Ziran in his arms, and then carefully lifted the little girl up, reminding her to get on the horse.

The golden horse was really dishonest, even though it had just been beaten once, it was obvious that the weak little girl was riding on its back, but she still couldn't help shaking her head in dissatisfaction, as if she had the tendency to throw people off her back - at this moment The naive Jinma doesn't know that sometimes the hostess is less offending than the master, even if the hostess is the future.

After Yan Li noticed it, he decisively raised his hand and grabbed the horse's mane, and repaired the horse in a serious manner.

The reason why it was neither serious nor serious was because he was afraid that the horse's disturbance would startle Wen Ziran on the horseback.But the reason why the golden horse succumbed was because the mane fell into the hands of this ruthless man again - the mane that was plucked bald before it hadn't grown back yet. I was bald again, so I had to wrong myself.

The golden horse was pitiful, with watery eyes, but no one cared.

Seeing that the golden horse was honest, the little general didn't get on the horse to ride with him. He grabbed the bridle and led the horse, then raised his head and asked the girl on the horseback, "Zi Ran, is there anywhere you want to go?"

Although Wen Ziran was blind, it was not his first time riding a horse, so he didn't seem panicked when the horse was walking around.With a comfortable smile on her face, she said: "My mother and I have been in the border town for a long time, but in fact, we rarely go out. Today, thanks to my elder brother, I can go out for a walk, wherever I want All good."

When Yan Li heard this, he felt that Wen Ziran was pitiful, with his unrestrained temperament, it was completely unimaginable for him to be locked up in the courtyard for a year.So he suggested: "Then let me take you for a walk around the city first."

Wen Ziran naturally agreed, but asked Yan Li to take her to the restaurant first, and tell Aunt about going out, so that the other party would not worry about it after knowing.

So under the morning light, the boy led the golden steed, and carried the beautiful girl slowly towards the restaurant in the west of the city.
