Chapter 549: The Origin of Master Yue’s Ramen Stall

"I did a lot of bad things when I was young, the mistakes I made, the people I was sorry for..." Uesugi, who was wearing a ramen chef uniform, sighed deeply, "To be honest, I regret it, of course I

I will regret it. Over the years, there is not a single day that I don’t live with regret and remorse." Cheng

"But what can I do except regret? Those mistakes have long passed away with the years. I am the only 'Emperor', but I can't catch up with the passing time even if I run with all my strength, even if I am an 'Emperor'

Things can only be pushed by time, and we have no choice but to move forward." Uesugi said in a low voice, "So I finally decided to become a ramen chef."

Kazama Ruri had been listening quietly to Uesugoshi's narration, and couldn't bear to interrupt. But after Uesugoshi finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head, looked at the old man in white cotton and linen clothes, and asked softly: "Why?

Is it the ramen chef?"

"This is another ridiculous thing from my youth." Uesugoshi's vicissitudes of life filled his eyes with the light of recollection, "That was when I first joined the Snake Qihachi family, and the position of the family heir was vacant at that time.

, they finally found me with the "royal blood", it was like getting a unique blood-blooded pony. They found all kinds of best-quality breeding girls from the family, and let them smear the white face,

She took off her underwear to seduce me, but I can't look down on any of those women."

"At that time, I believed that there was such a thing as love in this world. I grew up in a free and unrestrained France. I looked down upon those rigid and upright Japanese women." Uesugi said fondly, "So I

During that time, I didn't like to stay in the family, and I didn't want to face the same women in the family. I would always sneak out and wander around the streets by myself, looking forward to meeting a woman who I could fall in love with at first sight like I did on the streets of France.

Let’s have a romantic encounter.”

"Then have you met?" Kazama Liuli couldn't help but ask, "That woman who made you fall in love at first sight."

"We met, on the street below us." A smile appeared on Uesugoshi's face, "That was a very chance opportunity. I can't get used to the delicacies prepared by my family for me, and I want to try them even more.

Authentic street food in Japan, I happened to be walking down this street that day, and I also accidentally found a ramen stall here, and accidentally opened the door of the yatai cart...until she caught my eye."

"That was a woman making ramen. At that time, Japanese women regarded whiteness as beauty and would put pale cream on their faces when going out. They thought it was a symbol of beauty. I just felt like they were ugly female ghosts." Uesugi

Yue said, "But this woman is different. She didn't apply any makeup on her face. Her beauty is pure and natural. Her technique of stretching and pulling out noodles is very sophisticated, like a dancer dancing with a sword in her hand, and like a dancer dancing with a sword in her hand."

The calligrapher is scolding the hair in his hand." Cheng

"Are you attracted by that girl's ramen look?" Kazama Ruri asked.

"How could I not be attracted to her? She is so different. When she is approached by rogue diners, she is not afraid or disgusted, but greets them with a smile. She uses her generosity and wisdom to make those who have evil intentions against her

Men feel ashamed, just like the forgiveness of the Statue of Liberty." Uesugi said with emotion, "In that era, only such a unique individual, a free soul, could be found among a thousand Japanese girls!"

"Although I don't know her well, she does sound like a very attractive girl." Kazama Ruri also smiled and looked at Uesugoshi, "So you fell in love with her?"

"Yes, love is such a wonderful thing sometimes, and fate is unstoppable. At that time, I fell hopelessly in love with her." Uesugi admitted generously, "I would patronize her ramen stall every day, but every time She can only order the most ordinary soy sauce ramen. To be honest, compared with the family banquet, the ramen she makes is not that delicious, but I just like to see her serious look. It seems that it is The most beautiful scenery in the world.”

"What happened next?" Kazama Liuli asked, "Are you together?"

"No, at that time I had just come to the family from France, and I hadn't yet understood what the Underworld Supreme was. In my heart, I was still that shy French youth." Uesugi shook his head, "I only think about it every time. I ordered soy sauce ramen because I was just eating ramen to see how she looked. Soy sauce ramen is the food ordered by the most customers at the ramen stall, so it was the most inconspicuous. I didn’t dare to let her notice me. When her eyes came to me, I He would even subconsciously avoid her sight."

"It sounds like a boy and a girl who first fell in love in junior high school. When the girl who had a crush on her brother was targeted by her brother, she would subconsciously look away, blushing and not daring to look at her brother." Kazama Ruri smiled, " But you can't hide your love for someone. Why haven't you ever been discovered by her every time you come to the ramen stall?" Cheng

"As expected of my child, your intuition in this area is much sharper than mine when I was young." Uesugi Yue looked at Kazama Ruri, his old eyes filled with a smile of relief, "Of course I was discovered, I continued I visited the ramen stall for a month and never missed a day. I arrived at a fixed time every day and only ordered the same bowl of soy sauce ramen. Originally, I thought I was very low-key, but this behavior was very eye-catching in the eyes of the other party. Originally, I always ramened at her Just before the stall closed, I mingled with the diners and left together. She closed early that day, but when I was about to leave, she stopped me."

This time Kazama Ruri didn't ask any more questions, because he was completely attracted by the story. He just listened quietly, waiting for Uesugoshi to tell the story of how he met his beloved girl.

"That day she specially added a poached egg to my soy sauce ramen and said it was a gift for me. Thank you for my tireless patronage. She said she had noticed me a long time ago. My temperament is quite special and she comes here every day. She went to a ramen stall and only ordered one soy sauce ramen every time. I impressed her more than those customers who went out of their way to chat with her." Uesugoshi said, "At that time, when I looked at her eyes and looked at me, there seemed to be something hidden in them. Seeing the gems and sunset, my heart almost jumped out of my chest."

"Have you confessed your love to her?" Fengjian Liuli asked softly.

"How dare I!" Uesugoshi, who is over eighty years old, smiled shyly like a young boy. "She is a ramen stall owner and receives diners coming and going every day, so she is unexpectedly talkative. I listened to her talk The story of her childhood, her love experience, and her future dreams. I told her that I had returned from studying in France. She told me with longing that one of her wishes in this life is to go to France, a romantic and free country. , she doesn’t want to be trapped in a small country like Japan, she wants to see the outside world with her own eyes.”

"Then why does she still stay in Japan and open a ramen stall?" Kazama Ruri asked, "Is it because of money?"

"At that time, I also had this question in my mind. I asked her why she only went to and from such a street monotonously every day. I come here every day, so I knew that the income from her ramen stall was actually considerable, and I was also very curious about her obvious

She looked like she came from a wealthy family. Why would she set up a stall here to sell ramen? But I didn’t ask her this question. I just asked her why she didn’t go to France to see it.” Uesugi said, “

But she seemed to have something to hide, so we skipped the topic, and the conversation that day was still very pleasant, and we talked until late at night." Cheng.

"You still don't dare to confess your feelings to her, do you?" Fengjian Liuli said.

"Yes, but on that day, I had already made a major decision in my heart." Uesugi said, "I returned to the family, pushed away the breeding girls arranged for me by the family, and rushed to the family shrine.

I would like to announce to all the family heads and elders that I no longer want to be a stud for the family, I have met a woman and fallen in love with her, and I want to pursue my own love."

"The head of the family and the elders immediately became furious. They knew who the woman I was talking about was because the family had been sending people to follow me. When they all knew that the head of the Sheqiba family, the contemporary 'emperor' fell in love with a ramen

Girl, they said they didn't agree with this relationship." Uesugi Yue said, "Of course I refused to give in, and I argued with the head of the family and the elders. Finally, we reached an agreement and each made concessions. The priest said that I could have sex with that woman.

We are together, but we are not allowed to have sex with her, let alone have children with her. The priests also said that my bloodline is pure, and all children are precious treasures of the family, and they must be born with the most preferred woman in the family.

His blood cannot be tarnished."

"I didn't care about so much at that time. I just felt that I could finally pursue my love without any worries. I happily ran to her ramen stall. She asked me why I looked so happy today. I didn't tell her that I

Regarding family matters, it’s just a good thing that happened today.” Uesugoshi said, “That day, I not only ordered soy sauce ramen in the store, but also ordered everything I could order from the ramen stall, because I was really happy, she

Seeing me happy, she was also happy for me and said she would only charge me for one serving of ramen, but I insisted on giving the money to her. It seemed like we had endless topics to talk about when we were together, and we had a great time chatting that day.

, everything seems to be developing in a good direction.”

"But there seems to be a hint of gloom in your tone." Kazama Liuli said.

"Because every time we think that good things are about to arrive as expected, the reality always gives us a wake-up call, and things go against our expectations." Uesugoshi's eyes hid deep sinisterness.

"One day I returned to the family from her ramen stall, and I was invited to the family shrine by the long-awaited priest." Uesugoshi said, "The family heads and elders were waiting in the main hall of the shrine, watching my arrival.

Everyone looked solemn, and I had a premonition that something was about to happen." Cheng

"An elder asked me if I knew the details of the woman selling ramen." Uesugi said, "I was stunned, then shook my head and said, I don't need to know these meaningless things, because true love is regardless of poverty and poverty.

Rich and noble, one’s origin is not a matter at all.”

"At that time, the elder asked me a question, which made me stunned on the spot." Uesugi said in a low voice, "He asked me if I knew that the woman selling ramen had been engaged for a long time."

"Engagement? Engagement? What kind of engagement? At that time, my mind was full of questions." Uesugi Yue said, "The elder explained to me that the woman did come from a wealthy family and had made an appointment with a man from another family.

However, their family fell into trouble a few years ago. The elder of the family was hacked to death because of debts. The woman's fiancé has been depressed and alcoholic since then, and the woman has shouldered the burden of repaying the debt.

Set up a stall selling ramen on that street."

"This..." Kazama Liuli couldn't help but open her mouth.

"When I heard the news, I was more surprised than you. It was like a thunderbolt. How could she have an engagement? How could she have a fiancé?" Uesugi couldn't help but clenched the fence in his hand, "I understand in my heart, elder

Maybe it was right, but at that time I still said that I didn't believe it, pushed the elder away, and rushed out of the door. I wanted to find her on a rainy night to find out, ask her if she had a fiancé, and ask her to stay in Japan and sell ramen.

Whether it is for that so-called fiancé, I have to ask clearly, because I can clearly feel... there is also a faint love in her eyes when she looks at me."

"I met her in front of her ramen stall. She was standing in the pouring rain. I wanted to question her, but looking at her in the rain, I felt a little distressed for no reason, so I hesitated for a while. After I asked

Before she spoke, she asked me a question first." Uesugoshi said, "She asked me, did I do all this?"

"I didn't understand the question, I didn't understand, what did I do?" Uesugoshi said, "until she opened the curtain of the ramen stall, and the scene inside shocked me. A man's body was hanging upside down.

On the roof of the ramen stall, the corpse had lost its head, and the head was floating in the hot ramen pot." Cheng

"That man is..." Kazama Liuli said in a daze.

"It was that woman's fiancé. When I saw it, I realized that this must have been done by someone in the family. They felt that if the head of the family fell in love with an engaged woman, the family would lose face, so they used this cruelty to

He killed that woman's fiancé in the same way." Yue Uesugi said, "At that moment, I saw the look in her eyes when she looked at me. It was simply the most complicated look I had ever seen in my life. Those eyes I once thought were gems and sunset.

Her eyes were full of confusion, resentment, emotion and regret... I wanted to explain something to her, but I found that I couldn't say anything, because all this was indeed done by my tribe, although it was not based on my orders.

, but it is an indisputable fact that her fiancé died because of me."

"We stood in the rain that darkened the world, and were silent for a long, long time, as if a century had passed." Uesugoshi said in a mournful tone, "In the end, the look in her eyes when she looked at me turned into relief, and she

Tell me it's not my fault, it's her fault..."
