As the two of them whispered, a woman in a cotton dress and an apron came out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles.

Looking at her figure alone, this woman could be considered graceful. Looking further up…

Alright, she had a thick black veil on her face, revealing only her almond-shaped eyes. She couldn’t see anything else.

!!

The woman placed the noodles in front of a guest before turning around to entertain the two of them.

Usually, the people who came here to eat noodles were usually from nearby families. Coupled with the fact that the people living in the south of the city were not rich, Shen Yijia and Shen Yijia’s clothes looked out of place here.

The woman paused and wiped her hands on her apron cautiously before saying, “What would the two of you like to eat?”

The woman’s voice was very gentle.

Xiao Ruoshui frowned and said coldly, “Two bowls of plain noodles.”

She came today to see who could charm Xiao Qirui. She was not here to eat noodles.

Shen Yijia did not say anything. She was not picky about food.

The woman smiled awkwardly. “Please wait a moment.”

“Man, your business is getting better and better. It’s time to consider hiring a companion. Otherwise, how can you handle it alone?” The middle-aged man at the neighboring table slurped a mouthful of noodles and suggested.

She smiled and shook her head. “No need. I can do it alone.”

The middle-aged man sighed. “You’re so stubborn.”

Feng Manman smiled and said, “Uncle Li, eat. I’ll go get busy first.”

“Hey, go ahead. I’ll put the money on this table later.”

“Alright.”

Shen Yijia and Xiao Ruoshui looked at each other and saw that the man called Uncle Li was about to finish eating.

Shen Yijia leaned over and asked, “Uncle, are you familiar with the owner of this shop?”

“We both live in this area. How can we not be familiar with each other?” Uncle Li took a mouthful of noodles and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. He sized up the two of them and continued, “The two of you don’t look like people who would come to such a place to eat noodles.”

Not only were they dressed well, but they were also quite good-looking.

Shen Yijia laughed. “We were passing by and happened to be hungry. I saw that this noodle shop was quite clean, so I came in.”

This was the truth. This noodle shop was clean inside and out, in stark contrast to a messy alley.

Uncle Li did not suspect anything and continued to eat the noodle soup.

Shen Yijia blinked and looked at Xiao Ruoshui, indicating that she should ask her questions. The latter pressed her palms together and mouthed the words “please”.

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes and scratched her head. “I heard you talking to that boss just now. Is she the only one in this shop?”

“That’s right. She is also a pitiful girl. When she heard that her hometown was in trouble, she originally came to the capital with her family to seek refuge with her relatives.”

Unexpectedly, when she arrived in the capital, her family was gone. Not only was she the only one left, but her relatives were also not good people. Seeing that she was good-looking, they actually wanted to sell her to such a despicable place.

Fortunately, she was saved by a passing benefactor. That benefactor was a really good person. After saving her, he even lent money to Man’er to set up a shop here to do business.

“She is beautiful and diligent. Many people came to propose to her. The marriage was about to be arranged, but unfortunately…”

Uncle Li shook his head.

“What happened?” Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. She felt that it would be a pity if this uncle didn’t tell a story.

He spoke in a cadence and fluctuated.

She seemed to be able to imagine this woman’s tortuous life. It made her feel a little sympathetic, but in the end, it whetted her appetite.

Uncle Li looked at Shen Yijia strangely, and Shen Yijia immediately smiled.

He continued, “This isn’t a secret. You saw the veil on Man’s face, right? It’s so hot, but she still brought such a thick thing. She was disfigured because she saved someone.”

Thinking of something, he shivered. “That face has been cut a few times. It’s the kind that children have nightmares about. Because of this, the family who was engaged to her back then changed their minds.”

At this point, he sighed and shook his head. He took out five copper coins and placed them on the table. “My neighbors also feel sorry for her. They come here from time to time to take care of her business.”

Otherwise, it was just a bowl of noodles. It wasn’t like they couldn’t eat it at home.
