Peasant Woman's True Colors 031: Ghostly Idea

  "The Fragrant Pavilion" was indeed the largest restaurant in Mi Town, as described by An Xiang. It had two floors, with private rooms on both the first and second floors. However, Yang Tao didn't like being cooped up in a small room to eat, so the five of them found a spot by the window on the first floor's main hall to sit down, where they could enjoy the scenery around them as well as the view outside the window.

  Yang Tao had originally planned to eat the food she brought from home when she returned the embroidery to the carriage, which would save her a lot of money on meals. However, since someone wanted to treat her as a host, Yang Tao wouldn't be so polite and also let Lu Dahei and Pei Yifan have a taste.

  "In the Fragrant Pavilion, there is the best chef in Mitown. You can order whatever you want." An Xiang said gently, glancing at Fengzheng, to Yang Tao and the others.

  "I want stir-fried clams, saltwater shrimp, spicy potato noodles and garlic enoki mushrooms." Yang Tao said without thinking, these four dishes are what she always orders when going out with colleagues or girlfriends, the taste is not high-end, but she just loves to eat them.

  After finishing, Yang Tao suddenly realized that something was wrong. Wasn't she supposed to bring Da Hei and Pei Yifan here for a meat-filled meal? How did they end up ordering some dishes without any meat? And besides, although she liked eating, there were still two people who hadn't had their say.

  "Hey, An Xiang sister, we don't understand, why don't you order for us?" Yang Tao secretly stuck out her tongue and smiled slyly at An Xiang, hoping that her previous outburst had not drawn attention.

  Who said that mending the fold after the sheep has been lost is not too late? At least when speaking impulsively, it's hard to take back what you've said. As expected, not only did An Xiang and Feng Zhen show great interest in watching Yang Tao, but even the two people at the next table had their attention drawn over.

  "Taizi, these few dishes you mentioned, even the Fragrant Pavilion doesn't have them. Why don't you change to a few others?"

  Oh dear! Yang Tao has realized that her words might raise suspicions from all sides, fortunately, these "all sides" don't have much to do with her. Most importantly, she is now living in an ordinary civilian family, neither a noble lady in the midst of a palace struggle nor a candidate for selection as a concubine, even if she's a bit unconventional, it shouldn't hurt anything.

  "Alright, sister, you go ahead!" However, Yang Tao still decided to keep a low profile, impulsiveness is the devil! "But don't take too much, okay?" As it happens, Yang Tao has always been a supporter of the "Empty Plate Campaign", taking too much and not being able to finish it would indeed be wasteful.

  An Xiang took the menu from her colleague and ordered stir-fried beef with sauce, pine-seed fish, braised pork, scrambled eggs with mushrooms, and lotus seed porridge with osmanthus.

  Lu Dahei and Pei Yifan indeed ate very deliciously, Yang Tao also hadn't eaten such good dishes for a long time, of course, he didn't hold back either. But unfortunately, his eyes were bigger than his stomach, this small body couldn't hold too much food, making Yang Tao deeply regretful, so he could only eat a little bit of each dish and then put it down.

  Yang Tao is now most worried about how to explain to her grandmother and aunt that she, Lu Dahei and Pei Yifan came to the town.

  Kite obviously didn't want others to know that Road Big Black learned martial arts from him, and Kite's demonic appearance and unreliable behavior were something that couldn't be shown to Grandma and Auntie under any circumstances, or they would definitely worry, extremely worried.

  Yang Tao was thinking while looking around, and accidentally met someone's gaze.

  Yang Tao didn't know what she looked like, but from people's mouths these days, she could imagine a bit. Although it couldn't be said that everyone loved her and flowers bloomed when they saw her, she should still be a pretty little girl. Since she was pretty, it was normal to attract the attention of some people who hadn't seen the world before, let alone being acquaintances.

  "Hey handsome brother, you... are you also here?" Yang Tao greeted the people at the next table with a crisp tone, but quickly came up with another idea in her mind.

  As for the safety index of this white-clothed handsome guy, it's much higher than a kite. At least on the surface, he can barely be considered a good person. He's just too obviously handsome, and although his white clothes are elegant and refined, they also carry a hint of a heroic aura.

  Yang Tao's eyes fell on the man standing next to the white-shirted handsome guy. This gray-clothed man now seems to have the highest safety index, with an ordinary appearance but extraordinary temperament, looking like a young master from a wealthy family. Although he would also make Grandma and others slightly uneasy, he certainly wouldn't evoke the same shock as seeing the white-shirted handsome guy or the thrill of seeing the kite.

  Alright, it's him!

  As she thought so, Yang Tao's face immediately revealed a harmless smile, and walked towards the white-shirted handsome guy and the gray-clothed man. This smile didn't seem to mean anything to others, but Fengzheng and Lu Dahei couldn't help but exchange a glance, using their eyes to convey their mutual understanding - this girl was up to something again.

  "Handsome brother, this brother, what a coincidence to meet you again! It's really fate, haha! Otherwise, come over and eat together!" Yang Tao enthusiastically tried to get close to the man in gray. "Handsome brother, how should I address you? And you! You've known my name for a long time, but I still don't know yours, isn't that a bit unfair? Handsome brother, with your elegant demeanor and exceptional talent, you must feel embarrassed to be unfair to a little kid like me, right?"

  Yang Tao, facing the handsome guy, finally got to show off her strengths, and in one breath, she said a whole bunch of things. Yang Tao felt particularly relieved in her heart. These days, she had been letting Luo Da He be because he was still young, and hadn't provoked Feng Zhi You much because of his sly nature. Anyway, she had been feeling very depressed, but now she finally didn't have to feel that way anymore, it felt really great.

  Yang Tao was so anxious that she forgot that when she caught the thief, she had also been on guard against the handsome man in white.

  The man in white clothes looked at Yang Tao with some astonishment, not understanding why he was being stared at by Yang Tao. He just wanted to have a good meal, what did he do to provoke him?

  But under the watchful eyes of everyone, Xiaoyu spoke eloquently and clearly. If he didn't respond to her or still refused to tell her his name, it would seem like he was really bullying her. The white-clothed handsome guy could only helplessly glance at the person beside him, but saw that the guy wasn't looking at him at all, instead gazing at Yangtao with great interest.

  Okay, just now they were still talking about that pomelo, and it's even more rare for the pomelo to take the initiative to get close to them, he told her it was okay.

  "The handsome guy is called Ling Hongfei." The white-clothed handsome guy smiled and was quite carefree, but intentionally teased Yang Tao. "You can call me Brother Hongfei from now on."

  "Okay, Hongfei brother." Yang Tao immediately called out obediently, but completely insincere, causing the kite that had been watching her to quiver slightly.

  This girl is too fake, can't she act more sincerely?
