Chapter 37

When Shen Lie saw that she finally smiled, he was completely relieved, and a big stone fell to the ground in his heart.

Relying on his superb acting skills after working in Hengdian for many years, this gag and pretending to be crazy can be considered as coaxing the chief minister's daughter to retaliate and make him happy.

It’s not easy!

Looking at that bright and charming face, Shen Lie smiled sarcastically, rubbed his hands naively, and secretly wiped away the cold sweat, thinking that the daughter of the prime minister's family had lost her temper, it was really...

It's too terrible.

However, Shen Lie soon felt relieved, as it seemed like it should be the case.

Who called her father Zhang Juzheng?

With Zhang Jingxiu's smile, the atmosphere in the store became harmonious. Several children of the Zhang family sitting nearby looked at their cousin's coquettish look.

Once again messy in the wind.

Several people had no choice but to giggle along with them: "Oh...hehe."

The laughter seemed a little dazed, but it was not impolite.

Not long after, I saw my young lady finally put down her sleeves, her pretty face was no longer cold, but was slightly red, and she picked up the chopsticks with her delicate hands.

She first took a bite of the roasted meat and made a crispy sound. Then she tasted another thin piece of pork belly, as if savoring it, and then she lowered her head and ate in small bites.

On the side, Zhang Kui, who was standing behind her, touched his head and was very puzzled. What is so delicious about such thin pork belly? Is it enough to fit between teeth?

Nothing beats braised pork...

However, although this thin pork belly seems to have no nutrition, it is not enough to fill the gap between the teeth of a strong adult man.

Zhang Jingxiu only tasted one piece and couldn't help but feel an appetite.

As the daughter of the first assistant, she originally didn't like meat, but this thin slice of meat tasted very light, delicious, not greasy, and had a very unique texture.

So, Miss Zhang soon began to feast on the food, grilling the pork belly in one bite and braised the pork belly in another. Although her manner was elegant and dignified, she took down her chopsticks in a leisurely manner.

But before he knew it, fine beads of fragrant sweat broke out on his fair forehead.

Shen Lie was waiting with a smile on her face, bringing tea and water, and watched her eat the delicacies she had carefully prepared with braised ingredients.

Looking at her white neck, bright eyes and white teeth from such a close distance, every part of her was beautiful.

At this time, the Zhang family members at the same table also picked up their chopsticks and tasted them. For a while, there was only a slight sound of swallowing in the shop.

In fact, this is no longer braised, this is Shen Lie's ingenuity.

Speaking of the eldest daughter of the Zhang family, there is nothing delicious that I have never tasted. I have never seen any chicken, duck or fish. This is the wealthy eldest daughter who rinses her mouth with bird's nests and shark's fins.

Shen Lie thought that she probably didn't like greasy food, but it was too light and nutritious, so he came up with this strange trick.

Sure enough, Miss Zhang unknowingly ate a bowl of stewed braised pork, one on fire, and her appetite was whetted...

Shen Lie hurriedly asked softly: "What do you think, Mr. Zhang? Why don't you have another bowl?"

Zhang Jingxiu wiped the corner of his mouth with a white handkerchief. Although he was enjoying the meal, he still said calmly: "No need, this stew... tastes very ordinary."

Shen Lie was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly.

"okay!"

Sir, you have the final say.

After a while.

Eat enough, drink enough.

Zhang Jingxiu sat in the shop with a leisurely look and ignored Shen Lie.

At this moment, she seemed to regard Shen Lie as nothing but air. She just held the position of a young lady, slowly waving the folding fan and eating...

Shen Lie had no choice but to step forward and said with a smile: "Have you eaten, Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Jingxiu wiped his mouth, raised his eyebrows, and said coldly: "Of course I have eaten. Why is a noble person like Brother Shen so arrogant in front and respectful in the back?"

There was still a bit of ridicule in those words.

That charming look seems to be saying, aren't you noble, aren't you unwilling to cling to the powerful, why are you coming here to please me with such a smile on your face?

Shen Lie was stunned for a while and had nothing to say. He had to look ashamed and said sincerely: "In the past, when the young master met Shen, although the young lady was courteous and virtuous, Shen... was impoverished and had the wind on his sleeves. How could he dare to be rude? ?”

When he said this, Shen Lie was distracted.

It's time to put your acting skills to the test.

At this moment, Shen Lie lowered his eyes. There was a bit of melancholy and a bit of hesitation on his honest face. In his clear eyes, there was even a bit of helplessness that he had seen through the world.

That look seemed to be saying, wasn't I down and out? You are so good-looking and the daughter of the chief minister, how could I dare to flatter you?

After all, the status difference is too great...

As Shen Lie narrated, his melancholy eyes and sincere emotions made the store very quiet.

There was silence.

Zhang Kui, several guards, the Zhang family's children, and even the little maid Yun'er at the counter all looked at Shen Lie eagerly.

Don't say anything else.

Let’s just say that the appearance, the acting skills, and the melancholy on the face are so sincere!

a long time.

Zhang Jingxiu seemed to be moved and said softly: "Jingxiu understands, but there is no need to worry about Brother Shen. Jingxiu only acts in a way that is true to his heart and never sticks to the world."

Shen Lie felt at ease as he thought about this sentence.

She is telling the truth.

The real kind.

A woman who was born to be such a beautiful woman is still unmarried in her twenties, and she likes to disguise herself as a man and run around on the streets...

It's really informal.

After all, she is the daughter of the first assistant family, who dares to take care of her?

Hear the words.

Shen Lie clasped his fists again and apologized to her sincerely: "This makes Shen shallow. I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed."

Seeing Miss Zhang's slightly wrinkled eyebrows unfurling, the knot in her heart seemed to be untied, and the slightly depressed atmosphere became lively again.

It was already afternoon.

As the knot in Miss Zhang's heart was relieved and she had finished sitting in the shop, she stood up leisurely and smiled at Shen Lie: "With that, I'll take my leave quietly and see you another day."

Said.

She led a large group of followers and walked out of the store.

Shen Lie hurriedly followed closely, standing under the signboard of Ziyi Fang, and said in a loud voice with some embarrassment: "Master Zhang, please walk slowly... come again."

not far away.

The beauty turned around and waved to him, and her graceful grace made Shen Lie's unsatisfied little heart beat crazily again.

Not long after.

Under Shen Lie's distant gaze, Zhang's family walked slowly to the entrance of the alley and joined the dozen guards and servants waiting at the entrance.

The group got on their horses and were about to continue walking out of the city under the protection of the guards.

But Zhang Jingxiu felt a little bored for a moment, and said angrily: "I won't go, it's getting late... go back home."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, looked at each other a few more times, and quickly agreed: "Yes."

So the guards turned their horses one after another and helped the young ladies onto their horses. The group turned around and headed back home.

Everyone in the Zhang family was riding on horseback, once again being messed up in the wind.

Is it... getting dark soon?

Zhang Kui couldn't help but look up at the sky, looking at the warm March sun in the sky, which was emitting a warm light and shining warmly on people.

Zhang Kui couldn't help but feel a little confused. It was just after noon and it was still early before dark. He felt that the lady was a little strange today.

But it’s hard to say what’s strange about it.
