Chapter 38: The Prodigal Son Doesn't Look Back
Su Ruyu glanced at Jiang An, who was sitting with her, and said with low eyebrows: "It's not easy to invite the ninth girl, and you don't say anything about pouring wine and thanking you, but what are you doing sitting still?" ”
Jiang An glanced at Jiang Li, and said with a dry smile restlessly: "This is my own sister, and the words of thanks have been said countless times." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info You invited me and said I wanted to thank you in person. Now that someone has been invited, can I go out? Besides, it's not convenient for me to sit here and talk to your women's house, is it? ”
"This meal is ready, won't you eat it before leaving?" Su Ruyu lightly browled her eyebrows and said with concern.
Jiang An got up, "No, the brothers outside have also waited for a banquet." ”
Su Ruyu got up, gave him a crown belt, flicked the sleeves of his robe, looked left and right, and asked someone to take Jiang An's mink fur jacket and put it on him personally, and then let him get up.
Jiang An seemed to be burning his buttocks, and he couldn't stop for a moment, so he hurriedly poured Jiang Li a glass of Tusu wine, personally urged her to drink it, and drank it with her neck up.
Hurriedly walked to the door but didn't leave, giving Su Ruyu a look. Jiang Li looked at him as ghostly and reverent, and he wanted to see what kind of moth he was going to come out of.
Seeing Su Ruyu walking over, Jiang An spread out his hand with a hippie smile and stretched out his hand in front of Su Ruyu.
Su Ruyu looked back at Jiang Li embarrassedly, and ordered the little girl who was guarding the door just now to take a heavy bag, and even threw the bag to Jiang An. Jiang An immediately changed his flattering smile and made a compilation to Su Ruyu, and then left with a smile on his face.
No matter how stupid Jiang Li was, he could see that it was a bag of silver.
"If he dares to gamble, come back and slaughter him!" Jiang Li deliberately laughed loudly.
Jiang An had already walked to the door, turned around and squeezed Jiang Li's eyes, and left with a smile.
Su Ruyu walked over, poured wine for Jiang Li again, her face was slightly red, and she said apologetically: "Let the nine girls laugh!" It's not that Yu Niang is not virtuous, and he is deducting your second brother's expenses, but he is spending too much money. ”
Isn't it just that the wife is strict? Jiang Li has seen it in his previous life, and he doesn't know how much. In the era when she came, it was not a shameful thing for a wife to be strict. Jiang Li smiled faintly, "I'm not afraid that Miss Su is not virtuous, but I'm afraid that Xianhui is too much!" ”
Su Ruyu was stunned, looking at Jiang Li's face, she couldn't tell whether Jiang Li's words were positive or negative.
Jiang Li smiled, "I'm telling the truth!" I don't know what my second brother's character is, as soon as he has money in his hand, I'm afraid that he will become addicted to gambling, you shouldn't get used to him! ”
Su Ruyu was relieved at this time, and said with a light smile: "Since ancient times, women have to marry three and four virtues, Yu Niang has lost her virtue before, and now her husband is my god, and everything I have is his." He saw that the silver ran out, and naturally it would converge. Besides, in the past few days, until the Lantern Festival, the imperial court has withdrawn the ban and allowed the people to let go of gambling. Your second brother promised me that once the ban passes, he will never gamble again. ”
Can you believe the words of a gambler? Jiang Li's jaw almost dropped, I can't understand how a woman from a place like Qinglou would be as innocent? Su Ruyu must have suffered from the days when she had no money, just like when she couldn't come with the money to redeem herself.
Teaching her brother's woman to hide her private money is not like what a normal person would do. And even if she wants to be stupid, others won't necessarily listen. Jiang Li was a little depressed.
Su Ruyu said again: "What's more, I may not be able to enter the Jiang family's door, but I'm afraid that the more Jiang Lang is restrained now, the more he will be separated from me." Now I have no relatives in the world except him, and the Jiang family is still you, and you are still willing to come to see me. ”
After eating two bites of dumplings, I don't want to use chopsticks.
Su Ruyu asked someone to remove the dishes and chopsticks, and the two chatted while drinking tea in their hands.
"It's just that you saw your second brother do something, and finally picked you up, and went to play by himself!" When Su Ruyu talked about Jiang An, her eyes were smiling.
"He left his, and I didn't come to see him." Jiang Wei said that he wanted to see how a good Oiran lived an ordinary life. What's more, she is still an Oiran who never forgets to repay other people's money and keeps in mind the benefits of others, which is worth her to see.
Su Ruyu was mistaken, turned around and took out a silver ticket of 1,000 taels from the house.
Holding the silver ticket in both hands, Su Ruyu bowed again, "Yu Niang, thank you for the help of the nine girls." The nine girls borrowed not silver, but an opportunity for Yu Niang to be reborn. Thank you, Miss Nine! ”
Jiang Li did not hesitate, although she also saw that this small family was a little shabby and may not be rich, but she was not at ease with the excess silver falling into the hands of such two people. So I took it neatly.
After the tea, the two moved to the wing room, Jiang Li looked at Su Ruyu's embroidered calligraphy and paintings, and listened to her chirp about Jiang An's interesting stories, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of happiness.
May a lover eventually become a family! Jiang Li could only think like this.
It was said that Jiang An went straight out of the alley and immediately went to the casino non-stop. After a while, he drank six and lost his body again. A few fox friends and dog friends in the same company didn't let him go, and dragged him to a restaurant near the casino to drink.
Jiang An was thinking about picking up Jiang Li at first, but as soon as she sat down, she wanted her to go back by herself. After three cups, he even forgot who Su Ruyu was for the time being.
There was a person sitting in the corner of the restaurant, drinking sullenly.
Hearing the noise of Jiang An's table, he raised his head and glanced at it, beckoned Xiao Er, and invited Jiang An over.
Jiang Anjiu was drinking to the end, and he was still a little unhappy. After seeing the person in front of him clearly, he laughed loudly, "It turned out to be Brother Sicheng!" It's a big holiday, why is it hiding here alone to drink? ”
Fan Sicheng is wearing a new azure cloud brocade robe today, his hair is not messy, his white face is calm and composed, his eyes are lowered, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow on his face, which looks a little deep. It doesn't seem to be the same person as Fan Sicheng, who was simple and childish in front of Jiang Li that day.
But Fan Sicheng, whom Jiang An knows, has always been like this. Since the Fan family came to the capital, the two have become friends. Although Jiang An knew that Fan Sicheng had another purpose in playing with him, he didn't mind. Especially after knowing that he was going to pursue Jiang Li, Jiang An raised his hands and feet in approval. After all, the Fan family is now an official who has done that part, and even Jiang An wants to tie up a few points.
"The person who made the appointment didn't come, so I had to drink here alone." Fan Sicheng didn't hide it from him, and just wanted to ask Jiang Li if he was really out of the house.
Jiang An smiled, "Look at your soulless appearance, is it a woman who missed the appointment?" ”
"You still said," Fan Sicheng said angrily, "Last time you promised me to meet Jiang Li, but it didn't work out." She said she was going to come to the appointment today, but she didn't come! ”
"Ahh Jiang An screamed, and the wine woke up for three minutes, "I personally picked her up and went to my house today, why didn't I hear her mention that she wanted to date you?" ”
Fan Sicheng pointed his finger at Jiang An's head, snorting angrily.
Jiang Angu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "You see I'm afraid it's too late today, why don't I personally bring her to see you another day?" ”
Fan Sicheng looked at Jiang An with a smile or not, and pouted, "Can I still trust you?" ”
"Believe it again!" Jiang An patted his chest and promised, "Before the Lantern Festival, it is the season to enjoy the lanterns, and I will definitely find a way to let you meet." ”
"Eh, I'm going to trick her out, where can I find you? It should be very busy, right? Jiang An temporarily remembered that Fan Sicheng had a new military position in Beijing, and there should be a lot of entertainment under the festival.
"I've been socializing in Taibaiju for the past few days, and I should still be there in a few days."
Taibaiju is the daily gathering place of celebrities and dignitaries in Beijing, and everyone in Beijing knows it. Jiang An nodded and wrote it down.
Fan Sicheng didn't say much, poured Jiang An a glass of wine, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Lost it again today?" ”
"How do you know?" Jiang An is very angry.
Fan Sicheng smiled very slippery: "The love scene is proud!" married the Oiran of Tianxianglou home, what is it to lose some money. As he spoke, he put a gold coin on the table and pushed it in front of Jiang An, "Count me as sponsored, and invite me to drink if you win." ”
Jiang An's eyes were green, the corners of his mouth were grinning, and he grabbed gold with one hand and raised his glass with the other, "You kid is interesting enough!" If you want to choose a brother-in-law, I, Jiang An, will definitely choose you. ”
The pig friends who came with him are leaving, so they are waiting over there. Jiang An glanced over there, turned back and smiled at Fan Sicheng: "Let's play?" You're going to win. "Don't forget to return it.
Fan Sicheng glared at him.
"It's okay if you don't gamble," Jiang An laughed as he walked, "You don't know, when I went out, my ninth sister said, if you know that if I gamble with money, go home and slaughter my hand!" Listen, how ruthless! So, it's better for you not to gamble. ”
