Escort agencies make a living by running escorts around, and it is extremely common for a single transaction to travel hundreds of thousands of miles across mountains and rivers. It is not unusual for escorts to encounter windy and rainy days or pass through remote places, where they eat cold food and live without shelter. Therefore, for an escort, being able to eat and drink well is a pleasure in life.
Yi Qilin has long been famous all over the world and stopped sending escorts more than ten years ago. However, the hard life he has lived as a escort for many years has cultivated his frugal and self-disciplined temperament. Whether in the main office or in the semi-colon, he must abide by the iron rule of "not focusing on meat on daily basis".
A plate of white flour steamed buns, a plate of scallion pancakes, four large bowls of porridge, and four bowls of minced meat soup. This is the breakfast of Yi Qilin, Yun Xiaomeng, Yi Qingxin and Mei Yuanchen.
"Yuanchen, I don't treat you like an outsider. The breakfast is simple, so just eat whatever you want!" Yi Qilin said to Mei Yuanchen with a smile.
Since their acquaintance at the Jinzhou Salt Transport Government, the two of them have gotten to know each other better. Yi Qilin admires this young man from the bottom of his heart. Regardless of Mei Yuanchen's martial arts, virtues, temperament, and insight, they are all top-notch. He has traveled around the world for many years and has never seen anyone who can match him.
"Senior Yi, you are so polite. Although Yuanchen grew up in an official's family, he is not considered pampered. Senior does not treat me as an outsider, and I am very grateful!" Mei Yuanchen stopped holding the ceremony and stretched out his hand to take it. A steamed bun replied with a smile.
Not to mention Yi Qilin's reputation in the world, his actions in Anxian in the past few months were enough to awe Mei Yuanchen. Who cares what to eat when you can have a home-cooked breakfast with such a martial arts master?
In the past few days, Mei Yuanchen has been busy inside and outside, but he has never had a good meal. At this moment, holding the firm white steamed bun in my hand and smelling the unique fragrance of the old noodles, my stomach growled, and my appetite was surprisingly strong.
Yi Qingxin, who was sitting across from him, listened to the movement. He lowered his head and nibbled the steamed buns gently while smiling softly. He felt the spring breeze blowing around him, which made his mind relaxed.
Mei Yuanchen was very hungry and finished the steamed bun in his hand in a few bites.
"Since I'm hungry, I'll eat a few more. It's not like I'm empty. I'll be on my way soon, but I don't have an empty stomach." Seeing that he didn't take another breath after eating the steamed buns in his hand, Yi Qingxin lowered her head and whispered softly. .
Yi Qilin was drinking broth with his head down. After listening to his granddaughter's words, he quickly said: "Yes, that's right. Yuanchen, you can eat more, but don't hold back. The lunch box is at your home."
Yun Xiaomeng raised his head and glanced at Mei Yuanchen on the left, and then at Yi Qingxin on the right. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and laugh. When he saw Yi Qingxin staring at her with her head lowered, she started to eat the scallion pancake.
Mei Yuanchen responded "Alas" and was no longer polite. He took another one from the plate and chewed it with relish.
... ...
Yi Qilin went to the main hall to make final explanations to the semicolon's escort. Yun Xiaomeng also excused himself and left. At this time, only Mei Yuanchen and Yi Qingxin were left in the dining room.
"Are you really full? There are steamed buns in the steamer in the kitchen. If you're not full, I'll get it for you." The two of them stood side by side under the eaves of the dining room, seeing that Mei Yuanchen seemed to have no intention of speaking. , Yi Qingxin asked with a smile.
There were nine steamed buns on a plate, and Mei Yuanchen ate six; there were twelve scallion pancakes on a plate, and Mei Yuanchen also ate six. Although Yi Qingxin lowered her head at the dinner table, she kept counting silently. When she thought of this several times, she found it funny, "His father is a first-class official and has lived in the palace for a long time. He has never eaten anything delicious. Why do you eat so many steamed buns and scallion pancakes?"
"I'm full! I'm full! I'm really full!" Mei Yuanchen replied hurriedly, with a shy look on his face, "I have never eaten so much in one meal since I was a child. I really don't have to go get it. "After saying that, he laughed sheepishly.
Seeing his embarrassment, Yi Qingxin couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, and said: "How can the food here be so delicious? I don't believe you can't have enough to eat in the palace."
"Of course not." Mei Yuanchen looked a little sad and explained softly, "Four days ago, the news of my adoptive father's death reached the house, and my adoptive mother and sister fell ill. Things in the house, I have to help. My adopted brother cannot leave the capital, so I will go and pick up the coffin of my adopted father. Such a big thing happened in my family. I am away from the capital on this trip. I am afraid that things will not go well for a short time after I come back. Go out. Yesterday, before the trip was done, I said goodbye to all my relatives and friends in the city. After three days of busy work inside and outside, I had no intention of eating. I was really hungry when I got up in the morning. Just now, the dining etiquette was lost on the dining table, which made Miss Yi laugh. !”
"I'm not laughing at you." Yi Qingxin replied sweetly. Before he finished speaking, he couldn't help but smile again.
The two of them looked at me and I looked at you, and both of them laughed unconsciously, one with a delicate smile, and the other with an obviously heavy sneer.
"Grandpa and some of the bodyguards are discussing matters in the main hall, which will take at least half an hour." Yi Qingxin lowered her head and said "carelessly", "It's boring to wait here, why don't you go for a walk in the yard?" , turned her head to the side, afraid that Mei Yuanchen would see the blush on her face.
How to refuse an invitation from a beautiful woman? How can I bear it but refuse?
"Oh...ok." Mei Yuanchen replied in a low voice, "I'm sorry to bother you, Miss Yi."
... ...
Sure enough, autumn is approaching and the sky is turning white late. At this time, it is still difficult to see things in the courtyard. Although a lantern has been hung in the corridor, the light does not illuminate very far. From a few feet away, one can only vaguely see his feet.
The two walked slowly side by side, silent for a while.
"Grandpa and Sister Yun both said that your martial arts are very good." Seeing that Mei Yuanchen didn't speak for a long time, Yi Qingxin looked at him sideways and spoke softly.
Mei Yuanchen pursed his lips and replied: "Senior Yi and Palace Master Yun are so complimentary. I don't know when I will be able to match them." He once had a confrontation with Yi Qilin in the Salt Transportation Government Office in Jinzhou. Palm, knowing that the other party's strength is far stronger than mine. Previously in this semicolon, Yun Xiaomeng also came to test his martial arts, and Mei Yuanchen was forced to flee left and right, with little power to resist.
"You are very high-spirited! My grandfather and sister Yun are both top players who are famous in the world. How old are you to compare with them?" Yi Qingxin said with an angry smile. Seeing that Mei Yuanchen was a little embarrassed, he comforted him: "My grandfather said that there will never be another young master like you in the world. Your future achievements will definitely be no less than theirs."
"Hehe...hehe..." Mei Yuanchen was speechless and could only respond with "hehe".
Although the two walked slowly, the yard was only thirty or forty feet in diameter, and they had already circled around it while talking and laughing.
"That day outside the Yingying Inn on Danzhou Post Road, I slapped you on the ear. You...do you still hate me?" Yi Qingxin asked quietly, with a bit of anxiety on her face.
That day on the official road in the west of Danzhou City, Mei Yuanchen's fast riding horse passed by the escort team of Yufeng Escort Bureau. The horse's hooves splashed mud and fell on Yi Qingxin. Then outside the Yingying Inn, Yufeng Escort's racing car got stuck in the mud, but it was Mei Yuanchen and a group of old and young Taoist priests from Zhenwu Temple who helped push it out. However, Yi Qingxin's horse jumped up in surprise from the thunder and threw her off. Mei Yuanchen caught her with his bare arms. A girl was held in the arms of a strange man. Naturally, she was ashamed and angry. She raised her hand and threw it heavily on Mei Yuanchen's face.
Later, Yi Buyi asked Yi Qingxin to apologize several times but she refused. She finally made up her mind to go and apologize at night when there were few people around. Who would have thought that Mei Yuanchen and his party would have left the inn earlier. After several meetings, she never found a chance to speak.
"Oh, no, no, no! It's my fault, it's my fault!" Seeing Yi Qingxin talking about this, Mei Yuanchen hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I shouldn't have hugged you like that..." At this point, suddenly I felt like I had made another mistake.
At that time, Yi Qingxin's clothes were completely wet, and Mei Yuanchen hugged her to him with her chest and back exposed, and it was like a skin-to-skin kiss.
It was because of this hug that Mei Yuanchen left an indelible mark on her mind, and even became deeply embedded in the girl's heart.
"It's me...I'm too rude. If you don't blame me, just don't remember my evildoings." At this time, the two of them were only a few feet away from each other. When they talked about the past, the atmosphere was a bit charming. Yi Qingxin felt ashamed and happy at the same time. Zhen Zhen nodded slightly and spoke softly to Mei Yuanchen.
"How could I blame you!" The beauty whispered softly. Although she knew she shouldn't, Mei Yuanchen couldn't help but feel her heart swaying, "Miss Yi, I know you have always been very kind to me."
Boys and girls are the most quick-thinking. Ever since the last time Yi Qingxin followed Yi Buyi to visit the Yanyun Government Office, Mei Yuanchen had a vague feeling that she was quite fond of him. Now that the two of them are alone, they feel this feeling even more intense. However, he was already engaged to Haitang and Xia Chengyi, how could he do what he wanted again?
Thinking of this, Mei Yuanchen secretly complained and was caught in a dilemma. He couldn't live up to Haitang and Xia Chengyi, but he was also afraid of hurting Yi Qingxin.
Just when I was feeling irritated and unstoppable, I heard her whispering softly next to me: "You...grandpa, brother and sister Yun all call me 'Qingxin'. You...don't call me 'Miss Yi' either." "
Yes, Miss Yi! "Mei Yuanchen replied slowly.
Before he could finish his words, Yi Qingxin scolded softly: "You just told me not to call me 'Miss Yi', why do you still call me like that? It's not like I don't have a name, and I'm not called 'Miss Yi'." "
"Oh, I'm stupid!" Mei Yuanchen's face turned bitter, and he called out softly, "Qingxin!"
"Well, you can call me that from now on." Yi Qingxin ran away with a smile like a child who got a sweet fruit.
Although Yi Qingxin is talented and intelligent, she has no intention of practicing martial arts. Therefore, her kung fu is very ordinary. At this moment, my heart was filled with joy and my steps were jumping for joy. I had already strayed off the path and was about to hit a short tree branch without paying any attention.
"Miss Yi, be careful!" Mei Yuanchen had already mastered the immortality skill. With his eyes like a falcon, he could see the broken tree branch from a distance. Seeing that Yi Qingxin was about to be stabbed in the face by the broken branch as sharp as a wooden blade, he hurriedly rushed over with "Twenty-Three Diagonal Steps".
Yi Qingxin heard the shouting, but before she could turn around, she felt a shadow passing by, and Mei Yuanchen came to her side, holding her waist with one hand and stroking her face with the other, so ambiguous.
When he arrived at Yi Qingxin's side, the tree branch was only half a foot away from her face. Mei Yuanchen was worried that it would be too late, so he quickly stretched out his right hand to protect her face, then stretched out his left hand to hug her waist, and twisted twice before getting out of danger. .
"You, why did you call me 'Miss Yi' again?" Yi Qingxin was held in his arms, her heart pounding like a deer, she felt the world was spinning and her whole body was hot. After a few breaths, she softly scolded .
Just now, Mei Yuanchen's feet were spinning very fast, and Yi Qingxin was so frightened that she hugged his neck tightly. At this time, the four eyes are facing each other, the breaths from the mouth and nose are communicating with each other, one is smiling like a fool, and the other is dumbfounded.
Yi Qingxin's eyes were like stars and her skin was like cream. Mei Yuanchen's right hand caressing her face actually trembled slightly.
"Qing...qingxin." Mei Yuanchen struggled to call out these two words as if his throat was being choked.
"Haha!" He was in a daze when he suddenly felt an emptiness in his arms. Yi Qingxin had gently pushed away and ran towards the path, smiling sweetly along the way, "Brother Yuanchen, let me go see Sister Yun..."
