Chapter 28 Do you think he's too old?
Jiang Youning was about to say she wanted to go back, but she paused when she heard that. "In the alley, the fifth one from the front is where I live."
Xie Jing: "Let's go."
Jiang Youning understood now that Xie Jing was going to her house to sit down.
She brought Xie Jing to the gate of the yard, which was open. When they walked in, they saw Yuanbao sweeping the yellowed leaves on the ground with a broom.
Xie Jing walked in with a grand stride, and his dark eyes swept the yard. The house was old but very clean.
There were hawthorns drying in the yard, strung together with bamboo sticks.
"Miss, you're back." Yuanbao was sweeping the fallen leaves, and when he saw Jiang Youning coming back, he walked over with a broom in his hand, excited.
Xie Jing retracted his gaze and looked at the man who was walking towards Jiang Youning. It was a strange face, and his dark eyes looked at her with doubt, "Who is he?"
Jiang Youning briefly told her about how she picked up the ingots, "He is now working here to support himself and earn money for travel expenses."
Xie Jing instinctively looked up and down at the ingots. Although he was wearing gray coarse cloth clothes, he did not look like an ordinary citizen.
He retracted his gaze and looked at Jiang Youning, his voice a little deep, "You dare to stay with a man of unknown origin?"
"He lost his memory, and he just happened to be in need of a servant to do the heavy work, so he stayed..." Jiang Youning's voice weakened at the end because she felt guilty.
[Xie Jing's words make sense. He is worthy of being a cavalry general, and he is so vigilant. 】
Xie Jing's unhappy mood eased a little after hearing this. He knew right from wrong and was not too stupid.
When Yuan Bao saw the man next to Jiang Youning, his eyes were alert, "Miss, who is he?"
Jiang Youning introduced generously, "He is General Xie, my fiancé."
Yuan Bao was stunned for a moment. Being an amnesiac does not mean he is a fool. He quickly realized that the man in front of him was Jiang Youning's future husband.
Jiang Youning felt that since they had come in, it was natural to ask, "General, do you want to come in and sit down?"
Xie Jing said "hmm".
When he walked into the house, Xie Jing found that the outside was old and simple, and the furnishings inside were equally simple. There was only a round table and two chairs in the main room, and a desk was gone.
Jiang Youning remembered that her grandfather loved to drink. Every time he drank, her father would ask someone to cook a hangover soup for him, so that he would not have a headache when he woke up the next day.
She ordered: "Chun Tao, go and cook a bowl of hangover soup."
"Yes." Chun Tao responded and turned and walked out.
Not long after, Chun Tao brought the hangover soup and placed it in front of Xie Jing, then retreated behind Jiang Youning.
Jiang Youning said: "General, this is hangover soup. Drink it and you won't have a headache when you wake up tomorrow."
Xie Jing spent most of his time in the barracks. When he was happy after winning a battle, he would raise a glass and drink with the soldiers.
When he was drunk, he would fall asleep directly. How could he drink hangover soup?
However, it was common to wake up with a headache after a hangover.
He drank a lot of wine today and was a little drunk, but he was still very sober.
He looked at the steaming hangover soup in front of him. He didn't expect her to be so thoughtful. He
picked it up and blew on it, then took two sips. It was a little hot.
[Xie Jing is much more obedient than his grandfather. He doesn't need to be coaxed. He just drinks from the bowl.]
Xie Jing: "..." Are you saying he's old?
Jiang Youning stared at Xie Jing drinking the hangover soup for a long time. Maybe it was because he had been fighting on the battlefield for many years, and there was always a calm and cold look between his eyebrows.
He has a high nose bridge and black and curly eyelashes that even women envy.
Xie Jing has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so his senses are more sensitive than ordinary people. He couldn't ignore Jiang Youning's carefree eyes even if he wanted to.
Just when he was about to finish the hangover soup as quickly as possible, he heard her sigh,
"As expected, a handsome man is still handsome even if he drinks from a bowl. With this look, he is definitely a national male god in the entertainment industry."
Xie Jing didn't quite understand what Jiang Youning meant. He raised his head and looked at her calmly, only to see her watery almond eyes staring at him without blinking.
Jiang Youning was admiring the handsome man's face without distraction, but suddenly met a pair of dark eyes and was stunned for a long time.
After she reacted, she immediately showed a look of affection, "General."
[The general is so handsome, no matter how much I look at him, it's not enough. I have been separated from the general for so many days, and I look forward to the general's early return every day. I want to see the face that makes me crazy. If I can marry the general, I will have no regrets in my life.]
She imitated the delicate and artificial tone, and lowered her eyelids shyly after speaking, feeling goosebumps all over the floor,
[No, no, it's so disgusting, I feel disgusted, Xie Jing must be disgusted too, I'm afraid he will vomit the overnight meal.]
Xie Jing's mouth twitched twice fiercely, you still have self-awareness.
Jiang Youning rubbed the goose bumps on her arms, raised her head again, and looked at Xie Jing shyly, "General, are you free tomorrow?"
[After being separated from the general for so long, we should go to the Fujiang Restaurant for a tryst to cultivate our relationship, otherwise we will become estranged.]
A tryst at the Fujiang Restaurant?
Xie Jing said, "I have to go to the palace tomorrow."
"Oh, that's a pity."
Jiang Youning looked at Xie Jing with regret, [The general is so busy that he has no time to accompany me. I am so sad.]
Xie Jing's dark eyes looked at Jiang Youniang, only to see her lower her head. As expected, she heard her say,
[General, go ahead and be busy, don't worry about me. Winter is the best time to stay in bed. I want to sleep until I wake up naturally, hehe. 】
"I'll pick you up the day after tomorrow."
Jiang Youning: "..."
What does Xie Jing mean?
Does he really want to date me?
When Xie Jing left, Jiang Youning personally saw him out. Seeing Xie Jing get on the carriage, she suddenly understood why he went out in a carriage instead of riding a horse.
If he rode a horse on the street, it would be like a modern star appearing on the street, and there would probably be a traffic jam.
Jiang Youning returned to the yard and saw Yuanbao coming out with the freshly boiled syrup.
During this time, Yuanbao was the one who went out to set up the stall. He always came back earlier than Chuntao, and most importantly, everything was sold out.
The next day, Jiang Youning and Chuntao went to the street with curiosity, and saw their own signboard Ruyi from a distance.
The stall was full of people, men, women, old and young, but mostly girls.
She walked over with curiosity.
The matchmaker twisted her waist, swung her handkerchief, and had her signature smile on her face.
"I am the most famous matchmaker in Jinling. I see that you have good conditions. How about introducing you to a girl?"
Yuanbao said without raising his head: "Not very good."
Matchmaker, "..."
"The new thousand-layer cakes in your house are really delicious. It's too busy to be alone. It would be great if you could find a wife to help you."
"No need."
"..."
"Why don't you make more stuffed cakes in your house? If you come late, you won't be able to eat them."
"Then you should come earlier."
"..."
Jiang Youning: "..." Yuanbao's attitude seems a bit arrogant~
Chuntao: "..." You said you would be enthusiastic? Why are you so fierce?
