When they arrived at the Wangyou Inn, the old snake seller took the money with a wide smile on his face and carefully wrapped it in a red cloth bag. Hu Ying warned the old man repeatedly. In the future, if there were any more of these medicinal herbs, he would send them here first. The price here would definitely be higher than the ones outside.

The old man thanked him profusely and took the empty basket with him.

The new employees were busy in the front hall. It was already afternoon, and there were a lot of people drinking. Hu Ying carried her basket and walked towards the back of the hall. Along the way, quite a few customers greeted her and Gu Ye also followed in.

"Bro, you came to drink?" Hu Ying smiled politely, but between her words, she invited him out. After saying that, he couldn't help but turn around and move the snake in the basket to the jar.

"What did the girl want with the snakes?" Gu Ye acted as if he didn't hear her, and curiously looked at Hu Ying, who was picking at the white snakes.

"Wine, Fragrance Snake Wine." As she answered, Hu Ying picked up a snake, pried open her mouth to look at it, stretched it, and said to herself: "This snake is a bit young, and can be molted more cicadas. "However, the scorpions and centipedes aren't enough. It seems like I'll have to search elsewhere …"

"Miss, what's the use of this kind of wine? How can we brew it?" Gu Ye was still asking shamelessly. Hu Ying threw the snake into the jar, turned around and smiled at Gu Ye, "This is a secret." "If this little brother wants to drink, then go outside and wait. If he doesn't, then come visit me another time."

"I …" Gu Ye hesitated. He wanted to talk more with Hu Ying, but didn't know what to say. Suddenly, he remembered her saying that the scorpion and centipede were not enough, hence he was spirited and laughed, "Miss is lacking the scorpion and centipede, aren't you? I have one here. "

"Oh, really?" Hu Ying's eyes also lit up. She put away the jar and then led Gu Ye to the front hall counter.

"How much do you have?"

"Ugh …" Two hundred scorpions, and a hundred centipedes. " Gu Ye thought for a moment before replying.

"Alright, I want all of them." Hu Ying paused before adding, "But I want to see how the goods are priced first. However, the price in the ordinary market is twenty gold for a scorpion and thirty gold for a centipede. "

"Alright, I'll bring it over in the afternoon." Gu Ye was very happy. He stared at Hu Ying with a burning gaze. Just then, the waiter happened to bring the wine list of the new customers over. Hu Ying hurriedly went over to look through it and instructed the waiter to go to the cellar to fetch the wine list.

She lowered her head slightly, revealing her forehead that was as smooth as jade. Her exquisite nose was covered with sparkling lines that extended all the way down to her neck, revealing the part of her neck that was as white as a swan's neck. The small and round earlobes were adorned with amethyst pendant, slightly swaying along with Hu Ying's movements.

Gu Ye was a little dazed. It wasn't that he had never seen a beauty before, but the feeling that Hu Ying gave him was very different.

"..." Are you all right? " After Hu Ying was done with the wine list, she saw Gu Ye standing at the side without moving. On the contrary, he was in a daze. Hu Ying couldn't help but worry if he was sick.

"This humble one is Gu Ye. May I know young lady's name?"

"Hu Ying." Is there anything else? "

"No, it's fine." Gu Ye retracted his gaze. Seeing that Hu Ying had no intention of talking to him, he reluctantly walked outside.

As soon as he stepped out of the restaurant, someone came in and brushed past him.

That person was dressed in a long robe of dark flower curls and grass patterns. He wore a plum red embroidered belt and had a jade crown in his hair. Two strands of tasseled hair floated down from his waist.

Gu Ye's footsteps paused, and he turned around and walked out of the tavern.

The man in black also turned his head to look at his back as he left. He frowned slightly as if he was thinking about something.

"Ling Mo!" When Hu Ying raised his head and saw Prime Minister Qin walking in, he immediately raised his hand to greet him. By now, the entire Bai Dan City knew that the Prime Minister would come to the Wangyou Restaurant when he was free. People had gotten used to his uneasiness from the beginning, but now, he didn't pass out when they saw him. However, the crowd could not help but shut up. The entire wine shop was as quiet as a grave.

It just so happened that there was a little girl who came to help her father with the wine. She had a double bun and wore a bright red turtleneck shirt. Her green pants were very cute and delicate. Just as he was carrying the bamboo tube out, he accidentally bumped into Qin Lingmo.

The little girl did not hold the bamboo tube, and the wine spilled onto Qin Ling's clothes, soaking them. When the child saw that he was in trouble, he immediately held the bamboo tube tightly. His small face creased, as if he was about to cry.

Qin Lingmo did not leave. He did not say that it was alright, nor did he have any reaction. He merely stood in front of the little girl with a calm expression. That child was only in his golden year. Although she didn't know Qin Ling Mo, she was still quite scared when she bumped into him and even spilled wine all over his body.

The surrounding people began to discuss among themselves, worried that the little girl had gotten into big trouble this time.

Seeing the tears in the little girl's eyes, Qin Lingmo did not show any reaction. Hu Ying walked over, bent down and patted the girl's shoulder, gently smiled and comforted, "It's alright, I'll give you another bottle. Next time, be careful …"

"Mm, thank you big sister …" The little girl rubbed her eyes and finally smiled.

The little girl finally left with the bamboo tube in her arms. Qin Lingmo followed her through the front hall and headed for the back. He lifted the curtain of the reeds, cutting off the crowd's discussion.

After a while, Hu Ying also lifted the curtain and walked in. When she lifted her head, she saw Qin Lingmo standing by the white peach tree that was already covered with green leaves, with his hands behind his back.

"What are you thinking about?" Hu Ying walked to his side and tilted her head as she asked.

"Nothing." Qin Lingmo lowered his gaze. His expression was a little gloomy. Hu Ying smiled and straightened her body. Following his example, she also clasped her hands behind her back and said, "I know that you are not trying to make a fuss about the child's apology. Rather, rather than smiling and forgiving whenever you make a mistake, it is better for the child to learn to be responsible for his or her mistakes first and not only hide behind an adult while crying, but also stand up and say that he or she is sorry. Right? "

Qin Lingmo's thoughts had been punctured right in front of his face. He was a little shy and his face was slightly red. Just as he wanted to turn his head away, a pair of white, jade-like hands held his hand. Immediately afterwards, a warm and soft touch came over and sealed Qin Lingmo's lips.

A few white peach blossoms floated slowly between the two of them. Qin Lingmo saw Hu Ying close her eyes. Her thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and his heart trembled as well. He hugged Hu Ying and deepened the kiss. His lips were entwined, and the warmth and coolness of the kiss spread through their stifling breaths.

Suddenly, Hu Ying pushed Qin Lingmo away and shouted loudly while clapping her hands, "My snake!"

The Qin Prime Minister, who was still immersed in his love, was caught off guard. He staggered and bumped into a peach blossom tree. Hu Ying, on the other hand, had already rushed to the side of the altar and lifted the lid. Although these Heaven Burning White Snakes were the best raw materials for the Fragrant Serpent Wine, they had to be soaked in the yellow water beforehand.

"Just wait for half an hour." Hu Ying closed the lid again with satisfaction. Turning around, he saw Qin Lingmo clutching his head as he moaned.

"You have a headache?"

"..." "It's fine." Prime Minister Qin stroked his crown and asked Hu Ying, "You just said what happened to the snake?"

Hu Ying recounted the incident of the old snake seller and Gu Ye. In the end, she expressed her extreme excitement at how easy it was to accept the Heavenly Flame Seal's white snake.

"The Gu Ye you're talking about is the person I passed?"

"Yes, that's right." Hu Ying nodded.

When Qin Lingmo heard this, he pinched his chin and fell into deep thought. Even though it was only for a split-second, he could still feel that Gu Ye's bearing was extraordinary. However, he didn't know the specifics. After all, it was just a quick glance.

When Hu Ying saw him frowning and deep in thought, she asked, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, nothing. It was just that the relationship between the North Tang and Lan Jin had been a little awkward recently, which resulted in the relationship with other foreign clans becoming more subtle, as two of the four routes of business had been closed. "Right now, many of the foreign merchants that have stayed in the capital are starting to return. He is different from the others …"

"I also met them in the front of the small rainy house. I didn't ask for the specifics, but I think he's definitely a rich person!" Hu Ying's words were very convincing.

"Why?"

"The smell of silver is all over my body!"

"…" A drop of sweat rolled down Qin Lingmo's forehead. He should have known earlier on that to Hu Ying, people were only separated into rich and poor.

"Wrong, there is another type of person." Hu Ying seemed to know the meaning behind his words. She stretched out her slender fingers and waved them in front of Qin Lingmo's eyes.

"Who is it?" Prime Minister Qin was baffled.

"The one I like." Hu Ying's pinkish cheeks curled up into a faint smile. With a hint of mischievousness, she launched another sneak attack on Qin Lingmo's face. She discovered that she really enjoyed seeing Qin Lingmo blush. Perhaps the monsters that fell in love with humans in ancient books were moved by Qin Lingmo's sometimes shy and sometimes persistent expression.

This time, Prime Minister Qin was silent for a moment before his gaze fell upon Hu Ying, a faint fire flickering in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he slowly opened his mouth and asked, "Why do you like me? "I, I mean, my salary isn't that much …"

"I say you're really stupid, how can you confuse yourself with silver?" Hu Ying started laughing before she finished listening. She knocked on Qin Lingmo's head, "Do you think I'm stupid!? People can't be separated from silver? Money is money, and people are people. Who made the rule that if you like money, you can't be a lover? "

These words rendered Qin Lingmo speechless. The heat on his face continued to increase as his eyes lit up.

"To be specific, why would I like you? I think you're pretty good, but I'm not human, so there's no need to consider all those moral opinions. It's fine if you're black-hearted or eat people, I just think you're good. Moreover, when I meditate and cultivate, your appearance would appear from a pile of gold, silver, and jewelry. Since that was the case, why hesitate and probe? I like you, that's all. "

Hu Ying explained in detail. To her, this was a very simple matter. I like you, and if my heart is like yours, then we shall be together forever. If you do not wish it, you will cross your path, and I will walk my own path.

All sorts of thoughts gathered together before finally turning into a hug.

Qin Lingmo held Hu Ying in his arms, his forehead pressed against her neck. The faint aroma of medicine and the faint smell of wine wafted through his nose.

"Take your son's hand and stay together forever." His soft whisper resounded in Hu Ying's ears, carrying a sense of warmth and solemnity.

Hu Ying blinked and asked, "What do you mean?"

"..." It means that I will give you half of my salary in the future. "

"Only half! "You're so stingy!"

"..." Two-thirds of the way. "

"Two out of three and five."

"..." "Fine." Qin Lingmo closed his eyes and temporarily tossed aside the possibility that his future would be even better than that of a two sleeves cool breeze. Lowering his head, he gently pecked Hu Ying's lips. This was the first time he took the initiative to kiss a girl.

Of course, to be exact, it was a weird, greedy little fox …

Under the peach blossom tree, a sudden gust of wind lifted up a rain of petals, covering the two's figures in a hazy veil of light. They also dispersed the whispers of love between the two.
