Zhao Yi is handsome, no one can stand out, she has said more than once that she is used to seeing his face, and it is difficult for others to amaze her. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
But just now, Chu Li's appearance is like the top of the sky, the snow that does not melt all year round is bathed in the sun, the beauty is gorgeous, but if you look closely, I am ashamed that I should not use beautiful words to describe him, his face is handsome, looking like a general standing on the city wall, commanding thousands of troops and horses, his beauty is not in handsomeness, and then in the heavy, calm, restrained, inexplicably let people trust him.
She didn't know why she suddenly called out to him, Minglan lowered her head, and she was annoyed.
"Is the girl okay?" he asked.
Minglan didn't speak.
The man looked at her hand and grabbed the hem of her skirt, obviously there was something, but it was not easy to open her mouth, this was not like the second girl Gu who happily said that she would save him yesterday.
When she didn't speak, the man stared at her and didn't rush her.
Bizhu was in a hurry, and couldn't help but tug at Minglan's cloud sleeves, and shouted, "Girl, Young Master Chu is still waiting for you to speak." ”
Minglan blushed, annoyed Bizhu, she didn't speak, he could go.
"If the girl has something to say, she might as well say it directly," the man's voice was fierce.
Minglan raised his head, glanced at him quickly, and said, "I, can I borrow some silver from you?"
Bizhu, "....... ”
Bizhu's eyes didn't almost pop out, and the girl just said what to borrow?
She must have misheard!
How can she open her mouth, she is everyone's lady, this is Jingningbo Mansion, borrowing money is such a thing, not a close person, who will lend it to her, when she says this, Young Master Chu will look down on her a little, and she will definitely feel that she is an unfavored girl in the mansion, lacking food and clothing......
No, the girl is rich, more than 6,000 taels.
The man was also shocked by Minglan opening his mouth to borrow money, he grew so big, and no one had ever borrowed money from him, he felt that Minglan trusted him inexplicably, it seems that it is.
After Minglan opened her mouth, her regretful intestines turned blue inch by inch, but after saying all the words, she couldn't take it back, she was about to say that if she didn't borrow it, she heard his nice voice come over, "How much do you want to borrow?"
Asking this, it is obvious that he intends to borrow her.
Minglan looked up at him, only glanced at him, and then lowered his eyes and landed on his waist, and said, "Borrow...... Borrow thirty thousand taels. ”
The man raised his eyebrows, and Bizhu came back to her senses in shock, "Girl, what are you borrowing so much silver for?"
"Don't ask so much," Minglan said annoyedly.
Can she not ask?
Bizhu slandered in her heart, she was thinking, such a big matter, she must tell her wife to know, but as soon as she said it, Young Master Chu couldn't hide the matter of breaking into the girl's study.
Minglan was annoyed by Bizhu, and felt that this would be misunderstood by the man, so he borrowed his silver, and he was not allowed to ask more, so he looked at him boldly, and when it came to his mouth, he couldn't say it.
The man looked at her with surprise in his eyes, and just when Minglan felt that there was little hope, he nodded, "I have something to do today, and I don't have time to come again, so I'll send it to you tomorrow." ”
"Do you believe me?" Minglan couldn't suppress his ecstasy, and his eyes were full of brilliance.
The man stood by the window, the sun shining on him, and a warm halo around him, he smiled, "The girl believes me, why don't I believe the girl?"
It's just that she has seen it in a dream, and she trusts him so much, giving him a child who is less than two years old, and helping him detoxify it with her own blood, telling her that her blood can cure all kinds of poisons, and he has no reason not to believe her.
However, he was more curious, what happened in her dreams that made her trust him so much?
Minglan was overjoyed, she turned around and brought the red silk inkstone, handed it to the man and said, "Here you go." ”
The man was stunned, and instead of taking the inkstone, he looked at Minglan, "You want to marry me?"
This red silk inkstone, the maid said to the future uncle.
Minglan blushed so much that she could drip blood, and she almost didn't drop the red silk inkstone, she hurriedly said, "You, don't get me wrong, you borrowed me 30,000 taels of silver, and the most valuable thing around me is the red silk inkstone, which will be used as collateral for you." ”
She's just a mortgage, and she doesn't mean anything else.
Because of a misunderstanding, the man's ears were slightly red, "The mortgage is not needed, I will go first." ”
Before the words fell, the man was gone.
Minglan hurriedly put down the red silk inkstone, covering her face with both hands, she only felt that she could bake an egg on her head, and she had never been so embarrassed in her two lives combined!
Waiting for the others to leave, Bizhu couldn't help but say, "Girl, how can you casually ask someone to borrow silver, and borrow so much." ”
Minglan covered her face and said, "What do you think I think, my mother won't borrow me, she might as well trust me as an outsider." ”
Seeing him, she flashed the idea of borrowing money at that time, but before she could make up her mind to speak, she shouted to stop the person first, but she didn't expect him to borrow it without asking.
Bi Zhu did not deny this, "Young Master Chu is really generous, 30,000 taels of silver, he said that he borrowed the girl, and he was not afraid that the girl would have no money to repay him." ”
"Am I the one who borrowed money and didn't pay it back?" Minglan said angrily.
Bizhu, "....... ”
She didn't think so!
Seeing that Minglan had been covering her face, and the flush on her face had never disappeared, Bizhu asked again, "What is the girl borrowing so much money for?"
Minglan glanced at Bizhu and didn't answer, but advised, "Don't tell your mother about this." ”
Bizhu hesitated, but nodded.
Young Master Chu is by no means a bad person, and it's okay if he doesn't say it.
"Tomorrow, call Steward Liu from Zhuangzi in the west of the city, I have something to do with him. ”
Bizhu nodded like pounded garlic.
When her face recovered, Bizhu hid the red silk inkstone, and Minglan opened the letter that Chu Li had given her.
After reading the letter, Minglan's face bloomed with a smile like a spring flower and autumn moon.
The smile is clean and clear, like the moon in the sky, quiet and flawless, like the willows in May, graceful, dancing and flying, looking at the blue beads can not open her eyes, she has never seen the girl so happy, what is written in the letter, it is not a love letter, right?
She leaned up to take a look, Minglan glared at her, and hurriedly packed the letter.
Bizhu pouted, if you want to say that the girl doesn't trust her, she knows about Young Master Chu's coming to the study, if you want to say that she trusts her, why don't you give her a glance, she is not a maid with a broken mouth.
At this time, the maid Qingmei knocked on the door and said, "Girl, the second aunt and grandmother went to the Ministry of Shangshu Mansion and came back, and the conditions mentioned by the wife were agreed to by the Hou Mansion of Yi'an." ”
Promised?
Minglan frowned, the condition of the mother's parents was that Miss Zhou could not be pregnant for half a year after entering the door, and if she agreed, she could not be counted, did they want to kill the fetus in Miss Zhou's womb?
Mu Shi mentioned this condition, but she didn't like the second aunt and grandmother to accept it without authorization, and deliberately embarrassed her, so that she could have a longer memory in the future, so as not to have two again, and besides, she didn't like the Yi'an Hou Mansion to be honest and deceitful, she just wanted to force the Yi'an Hou Mansion to admit that the girl Zhou Biao was pregnant and had to marry.
