Is my wife farming today?

Chapter 153 Drinking to drown one’s sorrows

After walking around the street twice, my original intention was to calm down and relax, but I accidentally came to the door of Yuxiang Tower.

As soon as he raised his head, the red figure upstairs quickly looked away.

Since he annoyed Shen Yiming last time, he didn't even let You Jin come to the General's Mansion. It was really too much.

I was feeling irritable today, so I happened to come to him for a sermon.

Thinking about it, he refused to enter Yuxiang Tower.

"Second Miss, are you here? Come upstairs and invite me. What a coincidence. The shopkeeper is here today."

After going back and forth, the relationship between the waiter in Yuxianglou and her was better than that between her and Shen Yiming.

After not seeing her for a long time, Xiao Er was even a little uncomfortable with it.

No, as soon as she came in, she quickly informed her shopkeeper of her movements.

A few days ago, Chef You, who was in charge of the restaurant, wanted to go to the General's Mansion with a food box to pay a visit to the second lady of the Xie family. Unexpectedly, this matter somehow got to the ears of the owner, and he actually sent someone to stop Chef You halfway. down.

He also warned him not to interact with Miss Xie Er in the future.

Chef You naturally refused, and had a serious conflict with the shopkeeper for several days.

No, the whole building has already known that Shopkeeper Shen had a bad argument with Miss Xie Er recently and was in a bad mood.

I declined the unobstructed route and went straight to the third floor.

I saw that the door was closed tightly, and the surroundings were even more silent and empty.

The first and second floors were full of guests, but I don't know how Shen Yiming designed it. He was able to make the wing on the third floor independent and even soundproof it.

"Dong dong dong." He raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Shen Yiming, open the door."

No one answered, so she declined and took a few steps back. When she heard footsteps, the person inside opened the door very quickly as if she was afraid that she would just leave.

Looking at him who looked a little haggard, he smiled and asked, "Why haven't we seen each other for a few days? You seem to be three to five years older?"

"What did you say?" Shen Yiming turned around and came to the dressing table, picked up a bronze mirror and looked at it.

The son is the one who pleases himself.

He really didn't care to dress up these days. If you look closely, you can see that there are a few fine lines in the corners of his eyes.

"It's all your fault!" He held his cheek, and as he spoke, he stepped forward aggrievedly and slapped twice in rejection. "If it weren't for you bastard, how could I have aged so much all of a sudden! What should I do?"

Even though he refused, he still vented his anger and even shouted in pain a few times in agreement.

Shen Yiming gave her a fierce look, then walked to the round table and sat down.

"Tell me, why are you here today?"

She was stunned and closed the door.

"Can't I come and sit with you if I have nothing to do?" After saying that, she also came to the table and measured the temperature of the teapot with the back of her hand. She said lightly: "I'm in a bad mood today. Go and ask You Jin to give it to me." Cook some delicious dishes and have a few drinks with me."

Shen Yiming knew without thinking that the annoyance caused by the refusal must be related to the changes in the palace in the past few days.

Although Kyoto is a big city, there are rules and methods for people to gather information.

"Do you think that Yuxiang Tower is your own backyard? Are you going to come and sit here if you are not happy? Are you planning to eat and drink for free? Miss Xie Er!" Shen Yiming gritted his teeth and looked at her.

He declined the pretense and sighed, "You and I have some friendship, so what's wrong with you just taking me in?"

He was a sharp-tongued man, but he softened his voice when he heard the refusal, and then stood up and gave orders.

Not long after, You Jin excitedly brought up seven or eight newly developed dishes, along with a bottle of daughter's red that Shen Yiming had treasured for a long time.

Shen Yiming saw it and snorted coldly, "You really kissed her, but I can't bear to drink this wine? Why do you use it to show your courtesy?" You Jin chuckled, "I see the shopkeeper has been buried in the backyard for so long. I don’t know if it’s broken or not, but the master is here today, so what if I ask her to try it?”

Clear wine was poured from a shabby old altar.

Decline sniffed.

Even she, who had never had much taste in wine, could smell the strong aroma of wine.

When I raised my head and drank it, the wine passed through my throat without burning. The aftertaste even had a sweetness, "It really is a good wine!"

Shen Yiming sat down, held up his bamboo chopsticks and put some vegetables into her bowl.

"This wine is very strong. Drink less and eat some food first."

Decline felt warm in his heart, "You still know how cold it is and how hot it is."

As expected of the original owner's old lover, the old one is better, unlike the new one Dugu Xiwei, who doesn't know how to consider herself at all.

Although Shen Yiming had never given her a good look since she entered the house.

"Master, how's it going? Is your onion and vinegar chicken dish good?"

I declined to try it. Isn’t this the shredded chicken of the 21st century? No, this chicken seems to have been marinated in advance and given a flavor?

She used the tip of her bamboo chopsticks to dab the onion vinegar sauce on the plate, with a few oily flowers floating on it.

"The taste is good. The chicken is cooked to the right texture and still retains a fresh and tender texture. Especially the breast of the chicken, which is the most prone to burnt. However, the green onion and vinegar sauce has some flaws."

Listening to the declined comments, You Jin's face alternately felt happy and worried, and his heart also jumped up and down.

"Ah? Is it because my disciple didn't burn the onion oil?" he asked distressedly.

He declined and shook his head, and said seriously: "No, it's just that I like spicy food. It would be better if I could pour some more red oil on it or add two handfuls of spicy millet."

You Jin asked: "Red oil? What is spicy millet?"

"Yes, the breakfast shops here sell noodle soups and pastries that are always very bland. Except for my own hot pot restaurant, this place is not spicy at all, and life is too boring."

The voice of refusing to complain was not loud, and Shen Yiming only heard the last sentence.

He immediately waved his hand to You Jin to stop asking and go down to cook.

No matter how reluctant you were to leave, You Jin didn't dare to openly challenge his shopkeeper, so he had no choice but to close the door and go out.

Quietness returned everywhere.

Shen Yiming stood up and filled both herself and her with drinks, "Drink, a drink will relieve a thousand worries."

The wine cups collided, making a crisp "ding" sound.

She took a small peck and frowned, "Why does it feel like the taste is different from the first bite?"

The corners of Shen Yiming's lips raised, "All wines are only sweet in the first sip. After drinking, they become more and more bitter and astringent."

Decline lowered his eyes, savoring the bitterness between his lips and teeth, and couldn't help but feel a little more in agreement.

"Isn't it true that people are like this? When we first meet, we are astonished by the heavenly beings, pure and beautiful. But after we get along for a long time, they become self-destructive and mediocre..."

"It's better to live life as it is. If you have wine today, you'll be drunk now, and you'll have worries tomorrow, right?"

Raising her head, she quietly stared at the sad and melancholy Shen Yiming in front of her.

It was even more unclear, was he trying to comfort her with these words? Or to comfort myself.

Is it because of yourself? He used to be such a warm and bright person, but now his eyes are full of gloom and melancholy.

"Shen Yiming, actually you don't really like me, do you know?"
