Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 491 A familiar figure from behind

"Niannian, I'm going to the pastry shop. You come and close the door."

"Okay, sister."

Afterwards, An Yue walked out of the courtyard gate and went straight to the pastry shop.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival, and the streets are already crowded with people.

There are stalls selling lanterns and masks, as well as performing arts and juggling, and so on.

An Yue came to the pastry shop.

In a trance, I seemed to see a familiar figure in the crowd.

An Yue stood there, rubbing her eyes in disbelief.

Look over again.

The back is still there.

Looks exactly like him, whom I haven't seen for several years.

An Yue ran to catch up to find out what was going on.

After running a few steps, the way was blocked by a child in front of him, and the figure suddenly disappeared.

She stood there, looking for the figure among the crowd.

I looked around, then looked left and right, and saw the passers-by walking by, but I still didn't see that figure.

An Yue lowered her head in disappointment, sighed, and muttered, "Hey! How could it be him?"

She walked away while cursing, "You damn scumbag! You stinky scumbag! Don't let me catch you!"

Before she knew it, she had arrived at the door of the pastry shop.

She walked into the shop and saw Haruji and two employees busy making pastries.

Chunzhi saw An Yue's sad face and asked quickly, "Miss, what happened to you?"

An Yue forced a smile and replied, "I'm just a little hungry, so I came to find something to fill my stomach."

Chunzhi put down the work in her hands and hurried to get a plate to pick up a few pieces of freshly made rice cakes.

He handed it to An Yue and said, "Miss, have some rice cakes first."

An Yue took the plate, picked up the rice cake in the plate and took a bite.

The sweet taste of the rice cake spread in her mouth, but her mood was still low.

Chunzhi saw that An Yue was still listless, so she came over and asked with concern, "Miss, you look a little worried, did you not sleep well?"

An Yue sighed and told Chunzhi about the familiar figure she saw on the street.

After hearing this, Chunzhi comforted her softly, "Miss, maybe there are too many people on the street and you are dazzled and you are seeing things wrong."

"And...Miss, Chunzhi wants to say that it's been so long since this happened, why not just let it go!"

An Yue nodded and ate a few pieces of rice cake absentmindedly.

She sat in the shop drinking tea, watching people coming and going on the street, and her mood gradually calmed down.

She said to herself in her heart: [There are so many people here today, maybe I really made a mistake.]

The streets at this time are much busier than usual.

Various performances and the sounds of hawking lanterns rang out one after another.

An Yue decided to go to the Malatang shop again and relax at the same time.

So she said hello to Chunzhi, walked out of the pastry shop and blended into the crowd on the street.

The feeling of loss in my heart was gradually dispelled by the atmosphere around me.

After a while, he arrived at the door of the Malatang shop.

The waiter standing at the door of the shop saw that it was An Yue, and he quickly greeted her, "Miss."

An Yue nodded slightly and walked into the shop.

I saw customers queuing up in the shop and the employees were busy greeting customers.

Everything in the shop is in perfect order.

An Yue walked towards the kitchen.

Ale in the kitchen is busy cooking spicy hot pot for customers.

She spoke briefly to Ale and then sat in a secluded corner of the shop to rest for a while.

Looking at the guests coming and going, she felt filled with emotion.

These shops carry her hopes and efforts. Now that business is getting better and better, she is very pleased.

At this time, a man in simple clothes walked to the counter and said a few words to the accountant.

Mr. Accountant then walked up to An Yue and said, "Miss, someone from Millennium Building said someone is waiting for you there?"

An Yue nodded and replied, "Yes, okay, I understand."

I guess it’s the person introduced by the two matchmakers.

An Yue stood up, straightened her sleeves slightly, and walked out of the shop.

Walk towards the Millennium Building.

An Yue’s Malatang shop is on the same street as the Millennium Building, not far away from each other.

......

Arrive at the Millennium Building counter.

An Yue was led by the waiter to a private room upstairs.

When she opened the door, she saw a man in a green robe standing in front of the window with his back to her.

After hearing the noise, the man slowly turned around.

The man had single eyelids, strong facial features and thin lips.

When the man saw An Yue, he bowed and asked with a smile, "Excuse me, are you Miss An Yue?"

An Yue returned the greeting and said, "It is indeed me. May I know your name, sir?"

"I am Zhang Yi. I asked Mrs. Zhang to come and mediate."

An Yue smiled faintly, and then the two of them took their seats one by one.

After we sat down, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

After An Yue sat down, she looked at Zhang Yi in front of her with open eyes.

Zhang Yi smiled confidently, but did not dare to look directly at An Yue.

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere, An Yue picked up the teacup on the table, covered her face and took a sip.

Seeing this, Zhang Yi was the first to break the silence and said, "I heard that the girl runs several shops in the county town, and now the business is booming, which is really admirable."

An Yue gently put down the teacup, sat upright and smiled calmly, "It's just to make a living."

Zhang Yi raised his chin slightly, with a hint of confidence in his tone.

"Oh, by the way, I am the most talented scholar in Zhangjia Village, a successful candidate in the imperial examination, and I have a promising future. If Miss Anyue and I marry, we will surely live a life of wealth and splendor in the future."

After hearing this, An Yue was slightly stunned and was extremely disgusted with what Zhang Yi said.

She said calmly, "Mr. Zhang, I don't seek wealth and glory, I just hope to find a good man and live a peaceful life."

Zhang Yi had already noticed An Yue's displeasure, and he said, "Miss An Yue, don't be modest. With your intelligence and ability, if you have my help, your business will definitely be bigger in the future."

An Yue frowned and said, "Mr. Zhang, marriage is not just about benefits. I am not talented, and I think character and feelings are more important."

Zhang Yi smiled disapprovingly and said, "Of course, I don't need to talk about my character. Over the years, I have read a lot of poetry and books, and I am well-versed in literature and reason. As for feelings, I believe that love grows over time."

An Yue looked at the confident man in front of her and couldn't help complaining in her heart: [It's amazing. Although he is a juren, he doesn't even have an official position now, but he speaks wildly. He is really as humble as some ordinary men in the 21st century. ]

Afterwards, An Yue stood up and said, "Mr. Zhang, after meeting you today, I feel that we are not suitable for each other, so let's say goodbye now."

After saying that, An Yue stood up and left.

Zhang Yi quickly stepped forward and asked, "Miss An Yue, Miss An Yue, if we spend more time together, I believe you will change your mind."

An Yue ignored him and went downstairs.
