Chapter 710 An Old Friend Sighs

The gravel path winds up.

The door of an inn was open, and there were few pedestrians on the road.

There was a small stall in front of the inn, cooking a pot of mutton soup, and three roast chickens hung under the curtains on the side.

The aroma is wafting, and the soup in the pot is simmering. Zhao Shuang was lying on the Taishi chair, holding a fan and taking a nap when a crisp sound came from his ears.

"smell good!"

Zhao Shuang opened his eyes and saw a young man who was dressed neatly and had a nice smile.

"Closed today!"

Zhao Shuang pointed to the board hanging in the concierge and made a hunch.

"Are you the boss? I heard that the owner of an inn has unparalleled cooking skills and is famous throughout Qilu. I haven't been here long, and I came out specially today. Can I have a taste of your cooking? "

"You can eat whatever you want in this stall."

Zhao Shuang waved his hand, looking a little tired, and said nonchalantly.

"Thank you boss, you're welcome then."

The young man was very excited, his eyes shining as he looked at the ingredients and kitchen utensils displayed in the stall.

First I took the roasted chicken off the hook, then cut a few pieces of meat with a knife, spread it on the pancake aside, put some green onions and some sauce, and rolled it up.

Then, he poured some mutton soup from the pot on the side and sprinkled it with a layer of spices and minced green onions.

The boy held the thick broth and pancakes and ate happily.

Zhao Shuang looked at it and was happy.

"I can't tell. You are a little girl who is rich and noble. You should be used to being waited on. You are quite good at what you do."

"You don't know, when I was a kid fleeing, I didn't have much to eat, so I was used to making things by myself..."

The young man who was eating raised his head, a little surprised, with foam still hanging from the corners of his mouth.

"How do you know I'm a girl?"

Zhao Shuang sat up and smiled.

"As people get older, they naturally see more."

"Brother, you look like you are only in your twenties or thirties. You are not much older than me. How old can you be?"

Zhao Shuang waved his fan and looked at the little girl in front of him who was eating enthusiastically.

"I'm almost fifty."

The little girl who was eating happily put a mouthful of green onions into her mouth, her mouth wide open with a look of surprise on her face.

"Fifty?"

As if she had discovered some treasure, the little girl stared at Zhao Shuang and took a good look.

"You didn't lie to me?"

"To tell you the truth, I have never deceived anyone in my entire life. My colleagues in the world have given me the nickname "Immaculate Life"."

The little girl's eyes lit up with curiosity.

"Then can you tell me how you usually take care of yourself?"

Zhao Shuang waved his hand, looked at the girl in front of him, and laughed.

"This has nothing to do with maintenance. The most important thing is not to get close to women."

"Not a womanizer?"

The little girl was confused, a little disbelieving, and questioning.

"I don't believe it. Even the chamberlains in the palace can't get close to women, and they can't do it like you."

"Hahahaha! You little girl is quite smart."

Zhao Shuang smiled and asked instead.

"Do you usually see many servants in the palace?"

"Ah! I've seen some."

The little girl evaded her words and continued to drink soup.

"These are the usual dishes. I'll get you some rare ones."

Zhao Shuang stood up and walked back into the inn. The little girl raised her head and smiled.

"thank you boss!"

All the pancakes in front of her were eaten, and the little girl was not full yet. She was about to get some more when a familiar voice came to her ears.

"I knew you were here."

The little girl turned her head and looked at her sister standing aside angrily, with her hands on her waist.

"elder sister!"

"You are already a king, how can you still act like this?"

"Anyway, I don't have anything to do right now, so I'm just going out for a walk. Don't tell me, it's quite nice here."

"Stop talking, go back immediately before everyone notices."

Mi Lian was a little angry and pulled Mi Xin to leave, but the other party was reluctant.

"No, the boss said he would give me delicious food. No matter what happens, I have to say goodbye to the boss!"

At this moment, Zhao Shuang came out with a plate and saw the two women in front of him.

"Hey, who is this?"

"My sister."

Mi Xin suddenly discovered that her sister's hand that was holding her tightly loosened when she saw the boss.

"Your sister is quite pretty."

Zhao Shuang praised, handed the plate over, and sat down on a small bench.

"This is seafood that has just been fished from the East China Sea. It was transported all the way here on ice. Try it!"

Mi Xin was very curious. She took a bite with a wooden skewer and was very excited.

"Sister, it's delicious, you should try it too!"

Zhao Shuang was very satisfied and introduced.

"This seafood is just for eating fresh. It takes a long time to transport it here from the East China Sea. If you have the chance, you should go to the local area."

Mi Lian looked at everything in front of her as if she were a stranger. Looking at Mi Xin's stretched out hand, she swallowed the seafood.

But when I chewed it in my mouth, there was no taste at all.

"Sister, is it delicious?"

"tasty!"

Mi Xin seemed to be attracted by the food and did not notice anything unusual about her sister. However, Zhao Shuang felt the eyes on him and was a little confused.

"This girl, do you know me?"

Mi Lian suppressed her emotions, turned her head, and took Mi Xin's hand.

"Xin'er, it's getting late, let's go!"

Mi Xin had finished eating almost everything on the plate, stood up and bowed.

"Thank you boss for the hospitality. I will come again if I have the opportunity."

With that said, Mi Xin took out a pearl from her sleeve and handed it over.

"What are you doing? I see that my little friend is nice and I want to entertain you. Why are you so polite?"

Zhao Shuang refused for a moment, and without stopping, he quickly put the pearl into his sleeve.

“Come again next time!”

Zhao Shuang accepted the pearl and watched the two women leave.

Xiaomeng happened to come back, looked at Zhao Shuang's appearance, glanced at the backs of the two women, and asked.

"Who are they?"

"They look familiar, but I can't remember them. But they were quite generous. They probably didn't come from a small family."

…

In the evening, sister Mi Lian returned to her mansion, changed her clothes, and was dressing up in front of the mirror.

Mi Xin looked at her sister and noticed something strange about her sister.

"Why do you, sister, become so weird when you come back from an inn? Do you know the boss?"

"People don't know me, why should I know them?"

Listening to her sister's words, Mi Xin felt strange and muttered.

"Listen, my sister knows that boss!"

"Don't mind my business. You have to meet King Qi tomorrow. Be careful and don't make any mistakes."

Mi Lian was combing her sister's long hair. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and at the same time she was a little worried.

Zhao Dabao, how dare you not recognize me!
