The hero fell for the cannon fodder maid.

The two of them were enjoying their meal, and the atmosphere was harmonious. They were really enjoying the day.

Unexpectedly, a quarrel broke out outside. This was originally Xiao Wanyue's hot pot restaurant. They had always been in contact. The shopkeeper would report the situation to her regularly, and she would also adjust her strategy based on the business conditions of the hot pot restaurant.

The person outside sounds a little familiar. Could this person be Zheng Tiaodi?

Xiao Wanyue glanced at the calm man opposite her, put down her bowl and chopsticks, and said, "He Jingming, do you want to go out and take a look?"

He Jingming seemed unmoved and continued to eat the vegetables in his bowl elegantly.

Seeing that he was not in a hurry at all, Xiao Wanyue picked up the bowl and started eating again.

Today's mutton is delicious, and the tripe is also very good. She thinks she should try making some meatballs or something like that, so that it will feel more like eating hot pot.

But the person outside is his cousin, why does he have such an expression, is it none of his business?

She wanted to go out and see, but their door was opened. The person who came in was He Chuan, holding a girl in his hand, the fair and tender Zheng Tiaodi.

Only then did Xiao Wanyue realize that He Chuan was there too. This was normal. He felt relieved that someone was watching the situation outside. But why did Zheng Tiao tell her that she was here?

As soon as Zheng Tiaodi saw Xiao Wanyue, he struggled hard to break free from He Chuan, ran to her, and then excitedly hugged Xiao Wanyue in his arms.

He Jingming was so angry that he almost laughed when he saw this. He asked He Chuan to help her solve the problem, and this was how she repaid him. Humph!

Zheng Tiaodi had not yet noticed the murderous look in his cousin's eyes. He just felt his hair stand on end, as if he was being stared at by some bad guy.

She turned her head and saw that her cousin was there too. She quickly let go of Xiao Wanyue, stood properly and said, "Cousin."

Then she lowered her head and dared not speak. Her cousin's eyes were so scary. She wanted to comfort him, so she moved closer to Xiao Wanyue.

Xiao Wanyue smiled and said, "Why are you here?"

Zheng Tiaodi: "I want to eat hot pot. This is my first time in Beijing and I haven't eaten hot pot in Beijing yet."

Xiao Wanyue: "That's not right. You've been in the capital for over a month. How is it possible that you haven't come out?"

Zheng Tiaodi pouted and said, "Didn't I run around when I was at the border? They were afraid I'd get lost again, so they wouldn't let me go out. Today, I heard you were back, so I sneaked out. I wanted to eat hot pot and then go find you at the palace, but unfortunately I overslept."

She felt embarrassed as she spoke. She wouldn't be the first one who forgot her friends because of sleeping, and woke up thinking about eating hot pot. As a result, she met her good friend at the hot pot place. She was tired of even saying the word "embarrassment".

Xiao Wanyue: This little liar, doesn’t she know her cunning thoughts? She just came here to eat hotpot, and she didn’t expose her.

"Then sit down and eat something. We're all just getting started."

Zheng Tiaodi: "Okay, but would my cousin mind?"

He Jingming: "I mind."

Xiao Wanyue, Zheng Tiaodi: ……………

Xiao Wanyue coughed and said, "It's rare for us to get together, and I haven't seen Tiaodi for many days." Then she looked at He Jingming expectantly, and He Jingming could only agree with a dark face.

Zheng Tiaodi sat down happily, not daring to face her cousin's expression. She moved closer and closer to Xiao Wanyue, wishing she could stick to her.

Xiao Wanyue smiled and looked at He Jingming and said, "Don't be so serious. Tiaodi is scared."

He Jingming restrained his aura, Zheng Tiaodi breathed a sigh of relief, and then gave himself a dip in the water.

The atmosphere relaxed and the three of them started eating hot pot again. Xiao Wanyue was a little curious about what this person was doing here. Besides, Zheng Tiaodi was almost fifteen years old now, and she had grown a lot taller and became more and more graceful.

He Jingming remained silent and just silently boiled the food for Xiao Wanyue.

Xiao Wanyue also enjoyed her meal.

Xiao Wanyue looked at Zheng Tiaodi, put down her chopsticks and said, "Tiaodi, how have you been lately?"

Zheng Tiaodi's face turned red and she didn't know what to say. In fact, she came out to look for Meng Yinzhou. She heard that he was also going to Laiyun Hotpot Restaurant, so she wanted to meet him by chance.

Meng Yinzhou was the man she fell in love with at first sight, and she had never been in love in both of her lives.

She also wants to pursue her own love, but she doesn't know whether Meng Yinzhou is interested in her.

Xiao Wanyue naturally had no idea what was going on in her mind, but she felt that something was wrong with her so she asked this question.

Zheng Tiaodi thought for a moment before saying, "I came here to look for someone."

Xiao Wanyue: "Who are you looking for?"

Zheng Tiaodi: "I'm looking for Meng Yinzhou."

Xiao Wanyue:???

She is looking for Meng Yinzhou. Could it be that this girl likes Meng Yinzhou?

Come to think of it, not long ago when she was in Qingluan Village, she was interested in Meng Yinzhou, but was she serious?

Xiao Wanyue: "Meng Yinzhou is a good person."

As soon as she said that, He Jingming on the opposite side became unhappy. What do you mean Meng Yinzhou is a good person? Is he not good? Really, what's so good about Meng Yinzhou? He is just a scholar now, and the imperial examination will start in a few days. Yet they are praising him like this.

He's just a young boy, what's there to praise about him?

Xiao Wanyue still doesn't know the complicated thoughts of the man opposite her!

Xiao Wanyue ate several pieces of tripe before putting down her chopsticks in satisfaction.

Zheng Tiaodi was still eating, but He Jingming had already put down his chopsticks.

The more He Jingming looked at his cousin, the more he disliked her. Why did he meet her everywhere?

He didn't know how his grandfather and others looked at her. They let her run around all day long and she became more and more ignorant of the seriousness of the matter. He would definitely tell his grandfather when he had the chance and ask his uncle to take care of her.

After Zheng Tiaodi finished eating hot pot, they left the hot pot restaurant.

He Jingming held Xiao Wanyue's hand and strolled casually on the street. Zheng Tiaodi followed them. She had nothing to do anyway. She hadn't seen Xiao Wanyue for a long time and she was bored at home.

Now Xiao Wanyue will have no problem finding friends in the capital. She didn't have any friends in the capital for more than a month, except for Zhao Jingyu, of course.

Only Zhao Jingyu came to find her. She was so pitiful. But as she walked, she felt something was wrong. Why did this road seem so familiar to her? She had just passed here not long ago.

He Jingming took Xiao Wanyue to the direction of the General's Mansion. He had two things to do there. The first was to bring Zheng Tiaodi back. Of course, this was all done conveniently.

The other thing is the most important. He wants to take the woman he likes to meet his grandfather, hoping that they will like her.

Xiao Wanyue had no idea what He Jingming was thinking. Her whole mind was on shopping. The streets of the capital were very prosperous, with traffic everywhere. From time to time, she would look at the things sold by the street vendors. If they looked good, she would stop to look at them. If she smelled something delicious, she would ask He Jingming to pay for it.

I bought a lot of food and toys along the way.

Xiao Wanyue inadvertently saw that He Jingming's hands were full of various things. She looked at these things for a few more times, but she didn't expect that he bought all of them.

Xiao Wanyue felt a little embarrassed holding the candied haws in her hand. She and Zheng Tiaodi were the ones eating them all the way while others were holding the food.

She handed the candied haws in her hand to He Jingming's mouth. He Jingming was stunned. Yue'er asked him to eat candied haws, but he didn't like it very much. How could a grown man like him eat something for a child?

Xiao Wanyue looked at He Jingming pitifully. She would cry in front of him if he didn't eat it. He thought that Yue'er had eaten it anyway, so it would be okay for him to have a bite.

Then he lowered his head and took a bite of a candied haws, which Xiao Wanyue had already eaten half of.

Only then did Xiao Wanyue realize that this candied haws was the one she had eaten before, and her face turned red in an instant.

Zheng Tiaodi was happily eating watermelon on the side, but a roar from a distance interrupted her mood and suddenly her beauty was no longer there.

Xiao Wanyue and He Jingming also looked towards the source of the sound.
