"Madam Xia." Cui Wendong bowed politely.

"Master Cui?" Xia Mingyue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Why is Master Cui here?"

"This is probably Madam Xia's fault." Cui Wendong said and laughed.

There was a hint of flattery and coquettishness in the smile, which seemed quite ambiguous.

This made everyone present slightly stunned, and they couldn't help but look at Cui Wendong, and even Xia Mingyue frowned.

Seeing this, Cui Wendong's smile deepened.

Ordinary women usually work hard at home, dealing with pots and pans all day long. When their husbands come home, they have to take care of them and serve them attentively. They have no self at all.

I probably haven't heard any sweet words or soft talk.

Such subtle and silent words are most likely to touch people's hearts and make their hearts beat faster.

As for Xia Mingyue's silence at this time, it was probably because she was surprised and a little happy when she heard these words for the first time, so she didn't know how to respond.

Cui Wendong smiled and continued, "It's because the hot pot that Madam Xia opened tastes so good, so I came here specially to taste it again."

After having lunch at Yipin Guo yesterday, Cui Wendong felt that the copper pot mutton hotpot tasted really good and he really wanted to try it again.

More importantly, after dinner yesterday, Cui Wendong deliberately gave some extra silver when paying the bill, in order to gain enough favor in front of Xia Mingyue, and also take the opportunity to talk to her more and get in touch with her a little.

Unexpectedly, when he came out, the mooncake stall was still there, but Xia Mingyue had already left because of something.

Cui Wendong thought about it and decided to come again today in the name of delicious food.

It would also be a good opportunity to make his presence felt in front of Xia Mingyue.

Just as Cui Wendong was immersed in his plan, Xia Mingyue's expression became playful.

This Mr. Cui...

If you say he's not smart, he does seem to have some brains that can think of something.

But if you talk about intelligence, it seems that the brain has been kicked by a donkey, and the kick was very hard.

Just as Xia Mingyue was thinking about what words to use to respond, An Yunji on the side opened his eyes wide and looked at Cui Wendong, and said, "I think what Mr. Cui said just now is wrong."

Cui Wendong was stunned by these words. "Why do you say that?"

"Mr. Cui said that the Yipin Hotpot opened by my sister is delicious. He came here yesterday and is coming again today. It can be seen that he likes this copper pot mutton hotpot very much. If he likes it, he should also praise my sister for her good cooking skills. Why do you say that it is all my sister's fault? Is it wrong to be a good cook?"

Cui Wendong, "..."

When did he ever say that he really wanted to blame Xia Mingyue, and when did he ever say that being a good cook was wrong?
This is just a joke!

How could someone be so serious!
Cui Wendong was very displeased with the other party's sabotage, but An Yunji's eyes were clear and his face was full of doubts at this moment, as if he really felt something was strange and was not deliberately making trouble.

Moreover, the other party calls Xia Mingyue "sister". If you look closely, he looks somewhat similar to Xia Mingyue. Maybe he is her younger brother?
Cui Wendong suppressed his displeasure and coughed lightly, "I didn't mean it that way, I was just joking."

"I see." An Yunji suddenly realized and nodded, "But joking is mostly only allowed between acquaintances. Master Cui and my sister don't seem to be that familiar..."

"No, no, I said that wrongly. I heard from my sister yesterday that Master Cui helped and drove away the ruffians who were making trouble here. If this can be considered as being familiar with my sister, it doesn't seem impossible."

“This…” Cui Wendong was speechless again.

Although the young man was still serious when he spoke, why did he sound as if he was saying that he was repaying a favor?
Cui Wendong's face darkened, and after thinking for a moment, he bowed to Xia Mingyue, "I am sorry for being rude, please forgive me, Madam Xia." "It's okay, it's good that Mr. Cui admits his mistakes." An Yunji replied with a smile, "As the saying goes, it is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them. Mr. Cui seems to understand this principle and will definitely correct it."

Cui Wendong, "..."

The way this person speaks is really a bit choking.

Unfortunately, he couldn't find any fault with the other party and didn't know how to respond.

It's so annoying!

"I heard this young man call Madam Xia 'sister', but is he Madam Xia's brother?" Cui Wendong spoke again.

"That's right." Xia Mingyue nodded, "My younger brother An Yunji."

"I wonder where your brother is doing now?" Cui Wendong asked.

Being able to sell mooncakes with Xia Mingyue and speaking so harshly, I guess he has no future.

"It can't be said to be a high position, but it's just a job to make a living." An Yunji chuckled and scratched his ear, showing his simple and childish look.

really.

Cui Wendong raised his chin slightly, "I am not very talented, but I have a few properties, why not..."

"It's just leading troops to fight in the army and being a general." An Yunji said with a smile, "I was young and thought the position of general was a bit high, but my adoptive father said that I had many military achievements and was worthy of this position, so he told me not to worry too much."

The words "I'll help your brother find a job" were suddenly stuck in his throat. Cui Wendong was choked and coughed violently several times, his face turning red from coughing.

After his breathing stabilized, he stood up straight and looked at An Yunji with disbelief.

This young man who looks naive and honest, and offends people with his words, is actually a young general in the army?

How could this be?

He just said that his adoptive father told him not to think too much about it, and his surname is An, and the commander of the garrison is An Leiting. Could it be that this An Yunji is An Leiting's adopted son?
In a turbulent time, it was common for military families to adopt sons. Those who were adopted as sons and entrusted with important tasks were all people of great ability.

With such status, even his father had to show some respect to him, so he naturally couldn't offend him.

No wonder Xia Mingyue said her brother's surname was An when she introduced him...

Cui Wendong put aside his desire to show off his family background and assets in front of An Yunji, and put on a respectful expression, "I never thought that it was General Ji who was here. I am so sorry for my disrespect."

Then he added a polite compliment, "I've heard that General Ji is brave and good at fighting. Today I see that he is indeed outstanding and impressive. I am in awe of him."

"But when my sister said my name just now, you didn't recognize me. It's wrong that you must have heard it before. If you had heard it before, you should know my name."

An Yunji smiled and said, "But I'm not a serious person, so I won't blame you."

Cui Wendong, "..."

Do we have to make everything so clear?
Moreover, if you, An Yunji, are not a person who likes to be serious, is there anyone in this world who is more serious than you?

……

The conversation ended with Cui Wendong fleeing in panic.

But Cui Wendong had mentioned that he came for Yipin Guo when he came, and he felt that it would be inappropriate to leave immediately, so he had to bite the bullet and go into Yipin Guo again to patronize the business. (End of this chapter)
