Chapter 20: Failure of Courtship
After dinner, An Cheng secretly left the village and entered the capital, and when he walked to the Narcissus Residence, he didn't dare to ask, he stood silently next to him, and glanced in from time to time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The man came out to see him off, and walked over and said, "You're a friend of Miss Ping'er, aren't you?" He nodded, "She and Childe went out, you come in and wait, it's weird cold outside." ”
An Cheng was surprised, he didn't expect the guy to be so enthusiastic, he subconsciously looked at his clothes and didn't dare to move.
The guy smiled and said, "It's okay, waiting in Childe's private room won't affect the business." You're Miss Apple's friend, you're Childe's friend, and we'll be scolded by Miss Apple's if you're frozen outside. After saying that, he put on a posture of please, and An Cheng was embarrassed to refuse to follow in.
After entering, my head kept turning, and I looked at the layout inside at 360 degrees. After entering the private room, the guy poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, he took the tea and thought for a while and said sorry, the guy was stunned.
"Ping'er has a bit of a strong personality, but she treats people very well, if she does something wrong, I apologize to you on her behalf." After An Cheng finished speaking, the guy quickly shook his hand.
He smiled and said, "Although Miss Ping'er's temper is not good, she is really good to us guys, so we all hope that she can become a proprietress soon." But looking at her and her son's daily relationship, even if she doesn't get married, she looks like the default boss. ”
An Cheng stood up suddenly, his face expressionless, and the guy was startled. "Boss?" An Cheng muttered, and the guy realized that he might have said the wrong thing, nodded his head and immediately ran out.
Ancheng clenched the teacup tightly, thinking of the first time he met Ping'er. Narcissus's interaction with her is indeed very natural, not at all like the feeling of a son and a maid. But Ping'er doesn't feel alienated from herself, has she forgotten her oath and only thinks of herself as a fellow who hasn't seen her for years.
Just as he was thinking, the door suddenly opened, and Narcissus and Ping'er walked in smiling at each other, very intimate indeed. An Cheng stared at him and coughed twice, and both of them subconsciously took a step back.
"Brother An Cheng", Ping'er shouted excitedly when she saw him. Narcissus was just about to turn around and leave when he stopped him, "Narcissus stays, and I am not afraid of you listening to what Ping'er and I have to say." He turned to Apple, looked at her, and said, "Apple, remember our oath?" ”
Ping'er nodded subconsciously, and he continued: "In a few days, I will take my salary and buy a house in the north of the city, and we will get married, okay?" ”
Narcissus frowned, wondering if he was going to risk stealing a few of the wages he was talking about. Without waiting for Ping'er to answer, he shouted no. Ping'er turned her head to look at him together. "I don't agree with that." Again, he emphasized.
After a few seconds of silence and no one spoke, An Cheng stared at Narcissus, and Narcissus looked at Ping'er. Ping'er pointed to Narcissus and stumbled and said, "Childe, he ......, I ......, the north of the city is a little far from here, so it is inconvenient for me to come to take care of Childe." ”
An Cheng held Ping'er's arm and looked at her and said, "Ping'er, after you get married, you don't have to come to this Narcissus Residence to serve him again." If you owe him money, I will pay it back, if you don't, we will live our own lives in the future, you and him are not related, and it has nothing to do with here. ”
Ping'er's mind suddenly became a little messy, she had indeed been missing An Cheng, hoping that he would suddenly appear and have a home for the rest of her life. I didn't think that I would leave Daffodil behind because of marriage, one of these two people appeared in the first fourteen years, and the other appeared in the last ten years, which is equally important to himself. Especially what Narcissus is doing now, coupled with his stomach pain, he can't do without himself at all.
Just as she was thinking that An Cheng shook her and called out to Ping'er, she looked at Narcissus, who was pursing her lips and shaking her head. She took a deep breath and said, "Brother An Cheng, give me a few more days to think about it, okay?" I'll send you back first. After saying that, he walked out, and An Cheng glared at Narcissus and followed.
After sending An Cheng away, back in the room, Narcissus looked at her and said, "I don't agree that I don't want to keep you by my side to take care of me, it's because of ......," "I know." Apple's interrupted.
"I went out with Brother An Cheng that day and found out that after he saw the rich son, his eyes would unconsciously stare at the money bag or the accessories on his waist, and that expression was exactly the same as when you were back." Narcissus coughed uncomfortably and cleared her throat.
"But I don't care, haven't you already broken this habit, I'm sure Brother An Cheng can too." Ping'er sat down weakly as she spoke, and Narcissus put her arm around her and patted her in fear. "But I can't rest assured about your current situation."
Narcissus patted her and wanted to say thank you, but the word was no longer weighty, and she didn't say anything.
Early the next morning, Yiyun was about to go out when he was stopped by Uncle Guo, and he said with a smile: "Yiyun, this matter is good, the letter was handed over to the emperor yesterday." Although the emperor hated Guanyin to the core, he still believed his denunciation, and it was confirmed that the batch of military jackets sent was not manufactured in accordance with the regulations. Tomorrow morning, after the dynasty, he will confront Cheng, no matter how the old fox quibbles this time, the emperor's trust in him will be affected. ”
Yiyun knew that his father and the prime minister were not dealing with each other, but he didn't care about their intrigues, but he just didn't want his father to misunderstand that he had a relationship with Guanyin. He quickly explained: "Father, I don't understand why Guanyin gave me the letter, and we don't have a selfish correspondence with each other. ”
Uncle Guo patted him and said, "Don't take it to heart, it's just Guanyin taking advantage of you." Yiyun glanced up at him in surprise, "Mainly because of your position as the head catcher and your identity as the young master of the National Uncle's Mansion, it is also your ability to be used." However, Guanyin has never reported anyone in the past few years, and this time it is really strange. ”
Yiyun kept his head down and didn't dare to raise it, "That's fine, you can also use Guanyin to provide you with news in the future, and our father and son will work together to keep our Wei family's position in the court." After speaking, Uncle Guo walked towards the carriage.
Yiyun smiled bitterly, he couldn't understand his father's words for a while, and he was stunned when he watched him walk away. A question flashed through his mind, and he immediately ran to the side of the carriage, but stopped but did not ask.
Uncle Guo stretched out his hand and said, "Come up, I'll send you to the mansion, and we'll talk." Yiyun sat down and looked at Uncle Guo, plucked up his courage and said, "Father, I don't understand a little bit about Guanyin. Uncle Guo raised his hand and asked him to continue asking.
"Guanyin was a thief, he did not kill anyone, he was not put to death according to the law, and he did not touch anyone or anything in the court, and he was no different from ordinary thieves. But why did the emperor hate him to the core, and ordered him to be arrested and dealt with in half. ”
Uncle Guo's expression suddenly became serious, "What do you think?" Let's start with that. Yiyun subconsciously shook his head, and there was a vague answer in his heart, but he still wanted to hear his father or other people who had access to the emperor say it in person, so that he could know if his thoughts were appropriate.
