Chapter 11: Reflecting the Moon (End)
On the day of leaving Jinliang City, in order to render the atmosphere of parting, it rained lightly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Beiqi left yesterday evening, thinking that the only people who saw us off were Yu Wenyao and Mingyue. Oh, and Tinghe and Grandpa Hong. Gonggong Hong was forced because he had to wait by Yu Wenyao's side at all times. Although Tinghe is also because of Queen Mingyue, I know that she still has this heart.
I specially inquired about Su Yan's situation with Tinghe, Yuwenyao and Mingyue had a happy ending, and I hope she can also have a good home. I heard that Su Yan quietly left Jinliang City on the sixteenth, and she didn't even say goodbye to the Su family. However, the people of the Su family are not too worried, Su Yan is away all the year round, and they are also used to it. I don't know if Su Yan has let go of her heart, but I think at least I won't pester Mingyue again.
The road was a little muddy with a light rain, so I held a paper umbrella and walked deep and shallow, trying to avoid potholes. Compared with my crookedness, Murong Chong and Song Yunjing still walk leisurely, the key is that the corners of their robes are not stained with any mud, which is also a kind of ability. I wanted to learn from them, but I didn't know how to speak.
Given that I am a woman, Murong Chuan and Song Yunjing deliberately slowed down their pace. I'm even more embarrassed to drag on and on, it's just that I want to walk with them with a dead face, how can I still let them accommodate me everywhere?
Just as he was thinking about it, a warm voice came from the front: "Is Miss Dongge tired of walking?" ā
I didn't react, and looked up at him for no apparent reason. Thinking that he shouldn't have slowed them down, and he didn't complain, why did Murong Chuan say this?
Murong Chuan slowed down and walked parallel to me, and said with a smile: "The two big men and I may have walked a little fast, and I didn't take care of Dongge girl's footsteps, the girl should be very tired, right?" Later, when you find a resting place, you can stop and rest. ā
I wondered, "I don't feel tired." ā
Murong Chuan wanted to say something more, but was interrupted impatiently by Song Yunjing on the side: "Senior brother, why do you mean that you are sad all the way and sigh with a long face?" It's as if we have done you a wrong. ā
I suddenly realized: "Ah~~ I'm lamenting that I am not a lady when I meet someone." ā
Song Yunjing leaned over with great interest, looking at me with bright eyes: "Why are you unladylike?" ā
I think he seems to be very gossip about everything, which is really not the demeanor of a man. In his heart, he silently controlled himself not to slap his round head away. I tilted my head back a little and said quietly: "It's Yu Wenyao, he is the king of a country." I helped him so much, he didn't say that he was crowned an official and knighted, why didn't he even give us a little bit of hurrying? ā
I saw Murong Chuan's sassy gait obviously stumbling and looked at me in disbelief.
Song Yunjing said: "You have been depressed for a long time about this? Hey, I'm surprised, you're a little demon, what are you asking for money? Could it be that you demons also buy and sell goods? ā
I shook my head: "That's not true, but I'm in the world now, and I need money to eat, drink, and wear." I've already bothered you like this, and if I rely on your food and drink for free, it seems that I am so shameless and skinless. ā
Murong Chuan chuckled: "The girl doesn't have to worry about this, my junior brother and I have also earned some silver taels by collecting demons all the way, which is enough for the livelihood of the girl and us." Even if my brother and I are penniless, as two men, we will never let the girl be thirsty and hungry. ā
I was surprised: "Do you still need to collect money for collecting demons for people?" Isn't it your Taoist's duty to collect demons? I've heard that you pay attention to the unevenness of the road and draw your sword to help. It's chivalrous and doesn't ask for reward. ā
Song Yunjing shook his head and pretended to be profound: "This is going to divide people, the words of the poor people will naturally not take a penny, if it is a rich businessman, he will take the opportunity to extort a sum of money." He paused: "Of course, meeting people is an exception. ā
Me: "......"
I don't know how long I continued walking, but I really felt tired when I finally saw a tea house in an unknown place, which means that this place should not be far from the market.
We stopped on our way, and were going to stop and rest and ask what it was.
Murong Chuan and Song Yunjing came out to practice, I don't know if it's better for them to encounter more monsters or less, but I hope there will be less. So I secretly prayed in my heart that there would be no strange things happening in this area, and there would be no strange rumors.
We looked for an empty half-new wooden table and sat down, the guy in the tea house had sharp eyes, and almost as soon as we sat down, he trotted over and said with a smile: "What do the three guest officers want?" Our store is a small and remote place, and there are few types of food, only noodles and steamed buns. ā
Song Yunjing said: "Come three bowls of noodles and add us a pot of tea." ā
I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "Two bowls of noodles, one steamed bun." ā
Song Yunjing took a sip of tea: "It's good not to learn, learn to be picky eaters." ā
I stuck out my tongue and asked you to take care of it.
"Ho." A disdainful laugh suddenly came from the next table: "Are you talking about the jealous woman of the Shen family in Huaiyang?" ā
The porter on the other side of the table sneered, "Who else but that Hedong lion?" If I were the son of the Shen family, I would definitely divorce her. It's really embarrassing, the son of the Shen family just exalted her too much, so she got carried away. ā
The porter who spoke first chimed in: "That is, this kind of woman must divorce her." ā
I said that the topic of gossip has always been Song Yunjing's favorite, and the conversation between the two porters next door successfully aroused Song Yunjing's interest. Catch the tea house guy who delivered the noodles, and give full play to the tireless spirit of curiosity. Raising an eyebrow, he asked, "Alas, man." Is this called Huaiyang? What's the matter with the jealous woman that the two guest officers are talking about? ā
The guy put down the bowl and said with the same disdain: "This is the outskirts of Huaiyang, and it is still four or five miles away from the city." As for the jealous woman, she refers to the young lady Shen of the Shen family in Huaiyang. This matter is making a fuss in Huaiyang, and several guest officials are from outside, right?
Song Yunjing took a sip and nodded honestly.
Gossip is the best way to shorten the distance between strangers, and gossip alone is not as good as gossip in public, and everyone gossips together and slowly becomes familiar. The guy also expressed his interest, and his mouth was like a river: "The Shen family is the first family in Huaiyang, and the family has a big business. Being able to marry into the Shen family is simply a blessing that Mrs. Shen has cultivated for several lifetimes. It's a pity that this Young Mrs. Shen is unlucky, and she has not been pregnant for four years. Old Madam Shen was anxious to hug her grandson, and Zhang Luo wanted to give her son a concubine, which made Young Madam Shen furious, threatening that if any girl dared to step into the Shen family, she would break her legs. Look, isn't this a jealous woman? It is understandable for a man to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that this is the first time that the son of the Shen family has taken a concubine, and Mrs. Shen has thrown out such vicious words. According to me, Young Master Shen should divorce this wicked woman and remarry a sensible ......"
He looked at me in shock: "Girl, what are you doing here?" ā
I broke the steamed buns into small pieces and threw them into the bowl in anger. This is so unfair, why is it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and a woman who doesn't let a man take a concubine becomes a wicked woman and a jealous woman?
Song Yunjing waved his hand: "This is a unique way to eat in her hometown, refreshing and delicious." ā
The guy nodded incredulously: "Okay, the boss is calling me." A few people eat slowly, and the small ones don't bother. ā
I brought the tea bowl full of steamed bun crumbs to Song Yunjing.
Song Yunjing was puzzled: "What are you doing?" ā
I smiled: "The unique way of eating in my hometown is refreshing and delicious, you can taste it." ā
Murong Chuan ate the noodles silently.
Song Yunjing: "......"
