Pei Yuning led Xiao Tingyun to a small house inside and said, "Sit down."
I ordered a few more dishes, "Stir-fried seasonal vegetables, steamed sea bass, three-fresh soup, and finally a charcoal-grilled beef."
"Granny Yang, please give us another pot of fragrant tea." Pei Yuning said this before entering the door.
Xiao Tingyun was looking around. Although the house was not big, it was very clean and warm.
"Yes, thank you."
"I don't know if you are used to it." Pei Yuning raised his hand and poured her a glass of water.
Xiao Tingyun picked it up and took a sip. It seemed to contain osmanthus flowers, with a sweet taste.
The sore throat after the cold was relieved.
"This is the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers that Grandma Yang dried herself. Honey is added to it. It's good for the throat."
Xiao Tingyun was stunned. She had just recovered from an illness and her throat was still a little dry these two days.
Did he... come across it by accident, or did he mention it on purpose...
Pei Yuning lowered his eyebrows and poured her another cup of tea.
"Your maid has told her, don't worry."
"Thank you very much."
The osmanthus flowers in the teacup kept spinning, creating ripples little by little, and the two of them were quiet.
Fortunately, Granny Yang came in and brought the bowls and chopsticks. "You guys drink first. There are also some crispy candy cakes that I made myself. Girl, try them."
"Thank you." Xiao Tingyun reached out to take it, but Pei Yuning got there first.
When his hand touched hers, Xiao Tingyun was stunned for a second and then quickly let go.
Pei Yuning's breath was slightly restrained and his face looked normal.
"I'll eat it. Her throat is uncomfortable. Let's try next time." Pei Yuning took the candy with a smile.
next time?
Granny Yang understood. "Your throat is uncomfortable. Don't eat this. Eat more mushrooms made by the old man later. I'll ask him to make soup for you."
"Yeah." Pei Yuning pinched the candy and put it in his mouth, smiling, "Not bad, but this time I put a little more sugar."
Granny Yang clapped her hands and blamed him, "It's still the old man. I said enough was enough but he insisted on pouring another spoonful of sugar in when I wasn't paying attention. I said it was sweet, but he insisted it was just right!"
"Mr. Yang still has this problem of liking sweet things."
"Please help me talk about him. He's so sweet that his teeth will fall out!" Granny Yang complained in a low voice, making Xiao Tingyun smile.
Pei Yuning nodded, "Okay, I'll talk to him for you."
"That's the best!"
"Then drink more tea, girl. The food will be ready soon." Granny Yang smiled warmly and was very enthusiastic.
"Just tell me what you like to eat, and I'll ask the old man to prepare it right away."
Xiao Tingyun nodded and said with a relaxed mind, "Very good, thank you for your trouble."
Granny Yang winked at Pei Yuning, then hurried out.
"How did you find this place?"
Pei Yuning helped her put away the dishes and chopsticks. "I discovered this by accident before, and then I thought it tasted good. I'll come here when I'm free."
"Weren't you in Huaizhou before?" Xiao Tingyun remembered that he was a member of the Pei family, so he felt a little strange.
Pei Yuning, "I have been in Kyoto for a few years, and also in Huaizhou for a few years."
"In fact, I am not really a member of the Pei family. I am just a distant relative."
Pei Yuning's voice was faint, with no ups and downs to be heard.
Xiao Tingyun pursed her lips, noticing that he seemed reluctant to bring up this topic, so she didn't ask any more questions.
"It's here! The food is ready!" Granny Yang brought the food up.
"Mr. Pei, would you like to try the peach blossom wine that I just brewed a few days ago?" Granny Yang picked up a pot of wine and poured it for him excitedly.
Before Pei Yuning could refuse, Granny Yang dodged his hand and poured him a glass steadily.
Pei Yuning finally understood what Grandma Yang's look meant.
Xiao Tingyun suddenly said, "Can you give me a cup too?"
Granny Yang was stunned for a moment, then she smiled, "Okay, I'll pour you a glass too, but don't drink too much, this wine has a strong aftereffect!"
"Don't drink it!" Pei Yuning frowned, "Granny Yang, don't pour it for her."
Xiao Tingyun immediately begged, "Just one cup, I'll try it, it will definitely be fine."
Granny Yang looked around and saw that although Pei Yuning tried to stop her, the girl still didn't say anything harsh when she acted coquettishly, right? !
Granny Yang wisely listened to Xiao Tingyun and even patted her chest and said, "One cup is fine. My old man and I can drink four or five cups!"
He smiled secretly, thinking that Mr. Pei was finally softened.
Xiao Tingyun was like a cat stealing fish, quietly mouthing to Granny Yang, "Thank you!"
Granny Yang found it funny. She was even lip-syncing. Didn’t she notice that Master Pei on the opposite side saw it?
Still laughing!
This little girl is really interesting, but she is a little thin. She needs to ask the old man to stew a chicken for her to replenish her body.
Grandma Yang understood the thoughts of young people and left space for them.
Pei Yuning picked up a spoon and served her a bowl of soup. "Try the three-fresh soup made by Old Yang. It contains several kinds of fresh mushrooms picked from the mountains. It is very delicious."
The mushrooms were garnished with some chopped green onions and some chopped meat, which looked really delicious.
Xiao Tingyun picked up a bowl. The bowl was a very ordinary wooden bowl without any patterns on it. He blew on it, took a sip, and his eyes lit up instantly.
“It’s delicious!”
Pei Yuning observed her reaction and saw that she really liked it, so he raised his lips slightly and said, "If you like it, drink more."
Xiao Tingyun's eyes were full of smiles, and he raised his glass, "Mr. Pei, I toast to you!"
Pei Yuning put down his chopsticks, and Ruyu raised his wine glass, "Why?"
Cheers to your presence...
"Cheers... for bringing me to such a delicious restaurant today. Cheers..." Xiao Tingyun changed the subject again and again, raised his eyes to look at him, "Cheers to our reunion!"
Pei Yuning's eyes were fixed on her, as clear as ink and water, and he understood what she meant.
Xiao Tingyun did not back down either, and the quiet little restaurant suddenly became turbulent.
After a while, Pei Yuning slowly brought the wine glass closer to her, "Ding!"
The cups collided with each other, making a crisp sound. Pei Yuning said softly, "To you, too."
Xiao Tingyun smiled silently, covered the wine glass with his sleeves, and took a sip of Peach Blossom Wine.
It was full of mellow aroma, with a light fragrance and the aroma of wine at the entrance. Xiao Tingyun thought this wine was wonderful.
Pei Yuning drank it all in one gulp, his Adam's apple rising and falling slightly, the wine soaked the corners of his mouth, and a few drops of water fell between his lips, giving him an inexplicable sense of abstinence and sexiness.
Perhaps it was the effect of the alcohol, Xiao Tingyun made a quick decision in his heart.
"Mr. Pei, you..."
"Have some of this sea bass, it's the most delicious in this season." Pei Yuning interrupted her for the first time, still smiling.
Xiao Tingyun's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over her head, chilling her to the core.
Xiao Tingyun didn't respond, he just picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp, "Cough cough cough..."
The spiciness of the wine swept through his entire heart, and the violent coughing made Xiao Tingyun's eyes red.
Pei Yuning's tea was handed to her just right.
The tea was just 70% full, not overflowing, just like him, polite yet cold, attractive yet hurtful.
Their relationship is like this too, it will never get any closer, she doesn't want to be his friend!
Xiao Tingyun did not appreciate it and quickly grabbed the pot of wine and wanted to pour another glass.
A warm hand rested on hers, and both of their hearts trembled.
Xiao Tingyun pouted angrily and cried, "What are you doing?!"
