Chapter forty-six simple hands slenderly pulling the curtain to see
Chapter 46: Watching with a simple hand and a slender curtain
Apart from a moat, the imperial city in the east and the many yamen are solemn and solemn, as quiet as if no one is present. The Taipingli in the west stretches to Sanshan Street, which is noisy and noisy.
In the bustling crowd, cars, sedans, mules and horses, they seemed to be a small ripples on the water surface, which would not attract much attention at all. I don’t know if there were court officials who had retired, scholars who had just passed by the most lively street from west to east, and finally stopped at the entrance of the Xu family courtyard. Therefore, when a carriage with no sign in a blue cloth siege passed through the most lively street from west to east, and finally stopped at the entrance of the Xu family courtyard, it was not very noticeable.
Li Qingniang in the car saw Chen Yue pulling the curtain to look over the yard. Although she was still thinking about what she saw last night, she couldn't help but say, "If the eldest lady really wants to see him, I'll go and have a walk."
However, after sitting there hesitating for a while, Chen Yue shook her head vigorously. Just as she was about to put down the curtains, she suddenly saw a figure coming out of the yard. After looking around for a while, she finally walked straight towards her. Seeing this scene, she panicked and threw down the curtains, but the next moment she heard the familiar voice coming from outside.
"Go to the Zhongshan Palace of Xufu Street...it's the Duke of Wei's Palace...ah, aren't you hired to travel? Sorry, I'm wrong with it in a hurry..."
Hearing Xu Xun's voice to his coachman, Chen Yue finally couldn't help but get angry. He actually pushed open the curtain of the car in front of him and said angrily: "What's wrong? You want to hire a car to travel. You can go directly to the carriage. How could you just carry a carriage parked on the side of the road and say where to go? Don't you have an old horse carriage at home? What tricks are you going to do this time?"
Xu Xun went out early in the morning. He heard Jin Liu say that a carriage at the door was parked for a while. When he moved his heart, he thought of a reason to come out and test it. Who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, the curtain of the car was suddenly beaten high, and the familiar pretty face stuck out his head. But just a few days later, when he saw this little girl dressed in a man again, he always felt an indescribable kindness, and when he moved his heart, he grinned at him.
"You say you're playing tricks, so what else can you say? You're just cheating people, cheating people, cheating people."
"You..." Chen Yue's depressed and sadness was completely lost by these words. He burst out laughing immediately. When he came to his senses in a flash, he quickly looked straight, "Can you be serious? When is it now? You still have the heart to talk nonsense! Have you ever inquired about the Zhao family? Have you ever thought about a solution? Don't be idle all day long..."
Speaking of this, her voice suddenly stopped abruptly, and she was regretful and angry for a moment. She simply fell off the curtain and didn't even dare to look back at what Li Qingniang looked like in the car. However, to her surprise, just the next moment, a corner of the curtain was gently lifted up, and then the hateful smile appeared in front of her again.
"Miss, don't be so fierce, otherwise what should I do in the future?" Xu Xun didn't know why he always liked to joke with this little girl when he saw this little girl. So he started to joke a few times before he curled the joke and nodded and smiled, "You asked me to remind me yesterday, right? Thank you for your kindness. I have nothing to repay now. If you have something to do in the future, as long as I can do it, it is unavoidable."
"Ph, I know it sounds nice!"
Chen Yue was upset again as soon as she said the words, but she didn't know how to make a mistake, so she had to bite her lips tightly until she heard the godmother behind her sigh. She realized that her dazed and blushed for a moment. However, what made her both ashamed and annoyed was that Xu Xun on the opposite side did not put down the curtain, but still looked at her with interest.
"I have seen the girl three times, and I haven't asked for my name yet."
This time, even if Li Qingniang gently pulled her clothes behind her, Chen Yue would not dare to act rashly. After a moment of thinking, she said with a stern face: "My name is Ruyi! Let me tell you, if it weren't for my eldest lady, who would be willing to remind you, a little liar! If you know, leave quickly. Don't be content with a little bit of advantage. Your opponent is not that easy to deal with!"
Speaking of this, she snatched the curtain from Xu Xun's hand, then shouted at the coachman outside, "Go away!"
After driving for a while, Chen Yue finally couldn't help but lift the corner of the curtain and looked back, but he happened to see Xu Xun standing there facing her. Seeing her turning back, she almost lay on the window, but fortunately she was pulled back by Li Qingniang. She sat down again and tidied up her clothes for a while, then she looked up embarrassedly and glanced at the opposite side, and said softly: "Godmother, I know I'm wrong..."
"I shouldn't have been pestered by you, and I will take you out for this round!" Li Qingniang looked at Chen Yue with a reproach for a while, then suddenly moved two steps behind the curtain of the car, and whispered a few words with the driver who was driving outside. He heard that he was just hurried and repeatedly apologized. She taught a lesson casually, then turned around and sat down, and said earnestly, "Miss, it's not that I'm talking about you, I have a way to make it happen, why should I bring out Ruyi's name? And the few words that were exposed at the beginning shouldn't be said. Alas, if I knew I would see him today, I would never take you away!"
"Godmother..."
"At this point, what's the use of calling my godmother again!" Although Li Qingniang had a stern face, she saw Chen Yue holding her arm and acting coquettishly. Thinking of the years she had brought her up, she gradually felt soft. But last night's incident was like a fish bone in her heart, so she could only hold the person in her arms and whisper, "In short, don't see the Xu family again. He is now unable to protect himself, and there are too many corpses in contact with her. If one is not good, it will ruin your reputation!"
"Yes, I know, can't it be okay..." Chen Yue lowered her head guiltily, then smiled, "Okay, let's go and see our three rice shops. There was no movement after the rain a few days ago. The drought in Yingtian County seems to be a foregone conclusion. Judging from this situation, don't rush to release the rice we stockpiled first. First, others may be able to get a rare item and raise the price of rice. At that time, we can see if we release the situation and make greater profits; second, the government may try to calm the price of grain, so we can see if we can hand over the government..."
Xu Xunyuan, who was standing at the gate, looked at the carriage gradually moving away, and the last turn disappeared completely. Then he withdrew his gaze and walked back. The relaxed smile just now gradually turned into muttering in his heart.
I don’t know how this little girl is so impatient and can be treated as a person nowadays. If she also pushes her back when she talks to the young lady in her mouth, then how can she be better?
Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped and an idea came to his mind - there was a person who had been with the West Factory before. When he got through this difficulty, he rushed him to inquire tomorrow. If it was really the person around the eldest lady of the Shen family, he would redeem the person so that this little girl would not be the end of the end? This thought like a tongue twister would not be able to be cured in one's life. Until he touched his head when he entered the door absent-mindedly, he finally drove this random thought that had nothing to do with the matter out of his mind.
He glanced at Jin Liusao, who was busy alone in the vegetable garden. He kept walking inside until he entered the main room and saw Ruisheng sitting blankly on the little mat, and then he shouted softly: "Come in, I have something to ask you!"
Last night, Xu Xun and Huitong chatted for most of the night. Ruisheng, who couldn't sleep, heard everything without falling asleep. However, less than 30% of the ones they could understand were the imperial edict. At this moment, he followed Xu Xun into the east room. He gritted his teeth and was about to kneel down and talk. Who knew that before his knee was bent down, a sentence came from his ears.
"Don't think about anything that can never die. It's much easier to die than live!" Seeing Ruisheng raised his head in a daze, Xu Xun suddenly became stronger, "If you die, you really have no concern? Okay, wake me up, I'll ask you, skating, sumo wrestling, fishing drum, shadow puppet, trolling, fire spitting, juggling, where would you do?"
"I...I..." Ruisheng saw Xu Xun's eyes looking at him with bright eyes, and felt his mind was completely blank, so he blurted out, "I can learn from women!"
