Chapter 104: Chen Kee Tea Shop
Chapter 104: Chen Ji Tea Shop
Meng Zhize was about to step into the tea shop, but was blocked by the woman leading the way at the door. He was stunned and then stared at the woman with a puzzled look on his face.
The woman thought for a moment, then looked at Meng Zhize carefully, then her red lips moved slightly, and she said with a serious look: "Well... not bad, not bad..."
Meng Zhize stared at the woman for no reason, and suddenly heard her say the word "yes", and he was confused when he heard it.
After a moment of stunned , Meng Zhize looked at the woman in front of him with a blank expression , suddenly coughed lightly , and said to the woman , "Girl, what's wrong with you ?"
The woman smiled and said, "I said the young master looks good, but he is quite compatible with my cousin."
Meng Zhize's heart trembled when he heard this, and stood there for a moment, then said to the woman with a puzzled look on his face: "Who is your cousin? Do I know your cousin?"
After hearing Meng Zhize's words, the smile on her cheeks suddenly froze. She looked at Meng Zhize and then said coldly: "My cousin is the owner of this Chenji Tea Shop. Aren't you muttering the name of my cousin just now? Why do you say you don't know my cousin now? Could it be that you are really a dissatisfied man?"
Meng Zhize was amused and laughed when he heard the woman's words. He hurriedly explained to the woman: "It's true that I know your cousin Chen Bing, but that happened twenty-two years ago."
"Ah..." The woman opened her mouth wide when she heard this. She immediately said, "Twenty-two years ago, my cousin was just a little baby of four or five years old."
Meng Zhize nodded and said, "Yes, at that time we were all just children, and we often played with playmates together."
After saying this, Meng Zhize suddenly sighed, then shook his head gently, muttering to himself: "It's great to be carefree when I was a child..."
After Meng Zhize said this, a hint of sadness suddenly surged into his heart.
...
"Xiaoyu, why are you running to be lazy again?" The voice of another woman suddenly sounded in the inner room of the tea shop, and then a light footsteps sounded.
A woman in a light green dress slowly walked out of the inner room.
But she saw a square wooden plate holding in her hand, and some steaming pastries piled up on the wooden plate.
After leaving the door of the inner room, the woman in a light green dress saw Yue Ye standing at the door of the tea shop at a glance. Her bright and fair face suddenly showed a look of surprise.
After a moment of silence, the woman in the light green dress suddenly smiled and shook her head, and then continued to do her own work. However, she said to herself slightly, "Huh? Is it a guest here?"
The woman in the light green long dress placed the square wooden plate in her hand on the counter, then looked up at Meng Zhize, and said to the woman who was called Xiaoyu: "Xiaoyu, the guests have been standing at the door for a long time, so why don't you invite the guests in and sit down. Uh... Xiaoyu is really ignorant."
The woman in the light green long dress suddenly turned her eyes to Meng Zhize, then smiled and said, "It's a coincidence that I just prepared a piece of pastry for this guest to taste as well."
Upon hearing this, Meng Zhize nodded to the woman in the light green dress and smiled and said, "Thank you, the shopkeeper, please make a pot of Cangshan Longjing tea."
Xiaoyu recovered at this time, hurriedly gave in, and led Meng Zhize into the tea shop. He immediately pointed at the woman in the light green long skirt at Meng Zhize and said, "That is my cousin Chen Bing. She made the pastry, but our Ronger City is famous. There are countless rich daughters, masters, and noble ladies in the city. Every day, I send my servants to book in advance."
"Xiaoyu is really talking too much, so why don't you arrange a seat for the guests and bring the pastry up first. I keep this account in mind and go to make tea."
The woman in a light green dress was standing next to the counter, holding a brush in her hand, slowly writing something on the book. She suddenly heard Xiaoyu constantly praising her, and suddenly smiled, but instead of looking up at Xiaoyu and the others, she lowered her head and kept busy with her own affairs.
"elder sister……"
"Chen Bing, do you still remember me?"
Xiaoyu was about to say something, but was interrupted by Meng Zhize's sudden interruption. She turned her head and glared at Meng Zhize, and stopped talking.
"Well..." Chen Bing, a woman in a light green long skirt, raised her red lips, and suddenly she paused the brush in her hand. The woman in a light green long skirt immediately looked up at Meng Zhize with surprise, but after a long time, she could not find this person in her memory.
Seeing that Chen Bing stared at him for a long time, but he kept silent, Meng Zhize couldn't help asking again: "Don't you remember me?"
Chen Bing, a woman in a light green long dress, frowned, hesitated for a moment, and finally shook her head gently.
"Sister, the person in front of me said that he was your childhood playmate. Do you really don't know him?" Xiaoyu pointed at Meng Zhize, but her eyes fell on Chen Bing next to the counter.
Facing Xiaoyu's re-inquiry, Chen Bing still shook his head slowly, but his eyes remained on Meng Zhize. She immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Do you really know me?"
Meng Zhize nodded, suddenly shook his head again, then smiled bitterly, and said, "To be precise, Chen Bing, I knew, was only four or five years old at that time."
After hearing Meng Zhize's words, Chen Bing's heart suddenly trembled, and the brush tightly held in his hand suddenly slid from his hand, and the ink on the tip of the pen dyed the account book.
Xiaoyu widened her eyes, looked at Chen Bing's sudden abnormal appearance, and then turned her head and glanced at Meng Zhize with a look of surprise.
Seeing Chen Bing suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at him, Meng Zhize immediately smiled at Chen Bing awkwardly, and whispered indifferently: "Do you remember who I am?"
Chen Bing nodded silently, with tears in his eyes and said, "You are...you are us... Meng Zhize, a famous young genius in our country of Cyan?"
Xiaoyu was stunned. She suddenly heard the seven words "Young genius Meng Zhize" from Chen Bing, and was shocked. Xiaoyu couldn't help but look at Meng Zhize a few more times, and a bit of envy and admiration immediately appeared on her face.
Meng Zhize nodded and said, "Well, yes. Since I suddenly left Ronger City when I was seven years old, I rarely see you again."
After saying this, Meng Zhize suddenly raised his head and sighed deeply, and then said deeply: "This farewell has been twenty-two years. In these twenty-two years, everything around him has changed too much."
Chen Bing also sighed: "Yes, in this blink of an eye, it has been twenty-two years..."
There are too many things happening around Chen Bing in these twenty-two miles, so until today, Chen Bing, who is 26 or 7 years old, is still waiting to marry into the boudoir. Therefore, she is often pointed and said something from the neighbors behind her back.
Chen Bing supported the tea shop alone, which really made her feel a little overwhelmed.
Fortunately, her cousin Xiaoyu, who was far away, learned about her cousin's current situation from her parents, worked tirelessly to Ronger City from Jiao County, which was far away, and came to help her manage the tea shop.
...
Meng Zhize naturally didn't know the story of Chen Bing. After all, in these long twenty-two years, it was enough to change many things.
Meng Zhize saw Chen Bing suddenly standing in front of the counter, staring at him, looking worried.
He was silent for a moment, unable to help but change the topic and said, "By the way, Su Jie from the bun shop, Su Fang's brother and sister, and Qin Yu from the pork shop, are they okay now?"
When Chen Bing heard this, his heart trembled. After pondering for a moment, she slowly said: "They... are not bad..."
