Underworld messenger

A restaurant stands beside the street, with a signboard of "Qufeng Restaurant", the business is booming and many people come and go.

I don't know what happened to that idiot, Ruya straightened his clothes and wanted to go in and ask the boss, a carriage stopped in front of Qufeng restaurant, the boy who drove the carriage jumped down, lifted the curtain of the carriage with a slender hand, a man in a The girl in brocade was helped out of the carriage by a servant.

However, what attracted Ru Ye's attention was that the woman was wearing a jade pendant around her neck, the shape and color of which looked like the one worn by the young man.

The servant respectfully helped the woman into the restaurant. When the woman walked, she stretched out her hand to support her lower back slightly. If she also noticed that her lower abdomen was slightly protruding, she must be pregnant.

The servant helped the girl to sit down carefully, and then ran back to the carriage to get her things. If she also took the opportunity to take a closer look at the jade pendant, the girl panicked at first, but then she saw that he was not a villain, so she asked, "What's the matter with this young man?"

If he can also be sure that the jade pendant worn by this woman is the same as that of the young man, he said politely, "I see Madam's jade pendant is exquisitely carved, I would like to ask where I bought it, and I also want to buy a piece."

Holding the jade pendant around her neck, the woman said with a reddish face, "This is a gift from my husband. It is a family heirloom. Outside... it is not for sale."

Ru also held the Liangyu in his hand, thinking of Xiao Guan's pair of peach blossom eyes full of love, he could only sigh in his heart, "Excuse me, ma'am."

The woman smiled and said, "It's okay."

Ru also squeezed the jade pendant and wanted to leave Qufeng Restaurant, but when he turned around, he saw a familiar person sitting at a table pouring wine for himself.

"Rong Jing?" Ru Ye went over in surprise, and the person sitting at the table was Rong Jing.

Rong Jing heard his voice, put down the jug and turned his head to see him, raised his eyebrows and said, "Ru Ye—"

If you can see him here, you are still very happy. After all, he becomes a ghost after death and has no friends. Rong Jing motioned him to sit down, "Last time you left without saying goodbye, I thought you didn't want to see me anymore."

It was a little embarrassing to mention this matter, and he couldn't tell Rong Jing that he was a ghost messenger, so he could only say, "I was in a hurry last time, so I'm really sorry for leaving without saying goodbye."

Rong Jing didn't mean to care about him sincerely, "Try the food from this restaurant, it tastes good."

Ruye was absent-minded during the meal, and then a man came to the main restaurant, about 20 years old, tall and handsome, but with a vague childish look, as soon as he entered the restaurant, he went straight to the woman, calling his wife in his mouth.

The woman also responded to him softly. When the man saw her, he raised his hand and stroked her upper abdomen.

The more Ru Ye watched, the more he felt sad for Xiao Guan, the idiot he was thinking of was healed, and he had another sweetheart, the two were happy, and even gave him the jade pendant.

Seeing that he was always staring at the couple at the table, Rong Jing followed his gaze and said, "If you wait for me, I'll be back soon."

Ru also nodded, "Go and do your work."

Rong Jing got up and left the restaurant, and walked to an empty corner, with no smile on his face, swaying his sleeves with a cold face, a gust of wind swept by, and a ghost servant knelt in front of him, "Yan Wang, what do you want?" .”

Rong Jing leaned down and whispered a few words at him, and the ghost said that Baibai disappeared.

Ru also caressed the jade pendant under his sleeve, and wanted to ask the man if he still remembered a young lady, and was afraid of hurting the feelings of their husband and wife, Rong Jing came back while hesitating.

When Rong Jing saw him, he immediately raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes were full of tenderness, "I think you always look at that couple, don't you really like the food in this restaurant?"

"What?" Ruo didn't understand the relationship between the food in the restaurant and the couple.

Rong Jing sat down and poured himself another glass of wine, "I heard people say that this restaurant is owned by this couple. I heard that this place used to be a red restaurant. Half a year ago, the man's father bought the red restaurant and opened this restaurant. , and passed it on to their young couple, if you like the food here, you might as well go and ask for the secret recipe..."

How could the secret recipe of the restaurant be spread to the outside world? What he said was just to encourage Ru Ye to find out the truth.

Ru also made up his mind after hearing what he said, no matter what the result was, he would ask for Xiao Guan, so he got up holding the jade pendant and went to their table again.

The woman recognized him as the person who came to ask about the jade pendant just now, and quietly tugged at the man's sleeve, "Sir, this young master is the one who came to ask about the jade pendant just now."

The man raised his head and glanced at Ru Ye, "This young man is quite unfamiliar, should you come back here?"

"I came here just because of the fame, but I actually have something to ask you two." Ru Ye smiled and spread out his palm, on which was the jade pendant, "I don't know if this jade pendant is..."

When the man saw the jade pendant, he was surprised, and quickly groped around his neck to pull out a red string, under which was hanging an identical jade pendant, he heaved a sigh of relief, "I was scared to death, I thought my jade pendant was lost .”

Ru also froze for a moment, "Isn't this yours?"

The man smiled and said, "No..."

Immediately afterwards, he seemed to remember something again, looked Ru Ye up and down, "May I ask, son... what do you do?"

As soon as Ru Ye felt that there was something to this matter, he said, "This jade pendant belongs to an old friend of mine, please ask me to inquire about the whereabouts of the person who gave him the jade pendant."

The man sighed and asked, "I wonder if your old friend is still there?"

Ru Ye hesitated and said slowly, "He is no longer here..."

The man wanted to take the jade pendant to have a look, but if he passed it directly, he took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully, "Yes, this jade pendant should belong to my brother."

Ru was also a little surprised, "Your brother?"

"It's a family scandal. This jade pendant was originally given to us as a pair by my mother. She told us to give her one if we meet someone we like in the future. Later, my uncle was a gambler. In order to cheat money from my mother, He actually collaborated with bandits and kidnapped my brother for a ransom, but the bandits were later caught and my brother disappeared."

Ru also thinks that this elder brother must have hurt his head while escaping, that's why he became stupid.

The man continued, "My father sent people around to find my brother's whereabouts, but he found it in Jinling City. My brother was no different from a six-year-old child at the time. My father hurried to find a doctor, but fortunately, he didn't know who the nobleman was. , I went to a doctor to treat my brother earlier, and the doctor said that my brother can still be saved."

Ru also hurriedly asked, "Brother Ling..."

The man shook his head, as if regretting, "After bringing it home, my mother found that one of my brother's jade pendants was missing. She wondered if the nobleman took it, but didn't think much about it. Saying a person's name all day long."

Ru Ye's heart skipped a beat when he heard the man say, "Qu Feng, my elder brother keeps chanting these two words all day long. Sometimes he says Qu Feng, I want to marry you, and sometimes he says Qu Feng, don't go with him. That girl Feng, after careful inquiring, I found out that this song Feng turned out to be a young lady from the Red Pavilion, who died a year ago."

"Someone said that they saw Qu Feng often take care of my elder brother, and found out that Qu Feng had a miserable life experience, so my father sold the Red House and opened a Qu Feng Restaurant, thinking of his benefactor for my elder brother. Brother stumbled at home and fell into the water and drowned..."
