Chen Run was slightly stunned: "This, there are some things about people from the same country." ”

"What fellow countryman, what thing?" Ru Xi asked again unceremoniously, when she faced the Pu family, the Yan family, and the Shi family, most of them were dealing with people who were a generation higher than herself, and she had to be cautious everywhere, but she no longer had any need to be cautious about Chen Run, her own little girl.

Chen Run hesitated for a moment: "It's a fellow villager who is sick, so I went to help." If you miss the work of the hour in the store, the owner can deduct my salary, and I will count it when I pay the account to you. ”

Ru Ji didn't answer this: "Is your fellow villager a man or a woman?" ”

Chen Run became more and more embarrassed: "Yes...... It's a woman, and it's a relative of my clan. ”

"Relatives in the clan, is that surname Chen? Where to stay? Ru Ji frowned and said, the ancients had the same surname and did not marry, if this woman was from the same clan as him, then there would be no chance. But what does that lip print Fang Sheng mean? The moment she saw Chen Run come back just now, she tucked Fang Sheng into her sleeve. Could it be that besides this sick clansman, there are other women associated with him?

Before Ru Ji came out, she also asked Xiancao about seeing Chen Run with the woman. According to the fairy grass, it was near the Huaishu Hutong, which is a mixed place, Chen Run had a young woman with a shaved shoulder and a bee's waist, and her appearance was very pretty, and the two walked away with a smile, about the direction of the south of the city, where those snacks gathered.

Chen Run saw that the meaning of Ruxi's question was very detailed, so he had to answer one by one: "That's the adopted daughter of my uncle, called Liniang, so it can also be regarded as a surname Chen, and she lives in the second miscellaneous courtyard on the left hand of Huaishu Hutong." She came to the capital as if it was for a marriage contract, but she was abandoned. I'm a brother, so it's hard to ask too much detail. I just heard the second aunt say that she was very pitiful. Her adoptive father used to be very good to me, but now that Liniang is in trouble, I have more money, and it is not good not to help her. ”

Ru Ji frowned deeper: "Which second aunt?" Could it be Hu Erniang of Jixiang Buzhuang? ”

Chen Run nodded: "She's mean, but it's true that Liniang is sick, and Lang Zhong has been diagnosed, so I don't care about it." ”

Ru Xi picked up the tea bowl and took another sip and began to be silent.

Chen Run lowered his head and waited for a long time, and when he saw that Ruxi still didn't speak, he became more and more nervous: "Owner, I will definitely not go out when the teahouse is not closed in the future." ”

"Although the surname of the clan is Chen, it is not in blood." Ru Ji always thinks that this thing will not be so simple, this kind of surname and no blood, isn't it the childhood sweetheart pseudo-brother and sister model in the most popular Korean idol dramas in the past? "It's good that you do good, but there are many ways to do good. Hu Erniang can't take care of her? You just give some money. ”

"Second Aunt Hu is a little greedy for your money," Chen Run hesitated, "I gave it before, but Liniang said that she only took less than half of it, so I didn't dare to look for Second Aunt Hu anymore." ”

"There's always another way." Ru Ji Zhengse said, "You also said that you are the adopted daughter of your uncle, so if you want to change your surname one day, you can change it at any time." No matter what difficulties she encounters, this girl always has to find a way to survive by herself. Whether it is needlework and washing, small business, or even selling yourself to be a maid for others, there is no reason to ask you to be raised by a distant brother of the same age and no blood relationship. Of course, if your uncle's kindness to you is too great and you want to marry her, then I won't stop you if I don't say it. A family of women asks for a hundred families, and the matter of marriage must be happy with each other. ”

Chen Run saw that Ruji said it bluntly, and he hurriedly waved his hand to explain: "The owner, you misunderstood, I don't have anything to think about." It's just because I see her pitiful that I take care of her a few times. Didn't you save me when you saw me pitiful? I always feel that I can't repay much for your great kindness. Now that my own life is better, I can't stand idly by when I see others in trouble. When it comes to marriage, I ...... I have a bold idea," Chen Run paused, his cheeks seemed to be slightly red, and he hesitated for a moment before he got up and knelt down: "Dongjia, I want to marry a Caiwan girl!" ”

Ru Xi was a little surprised, all the signs and clues in front of her obviously pointed to other directions, why did there suddenly be such a confession at this time? However, the logic and reasoning of "I was favored by others in the past, and now I want to help others" is still very natural. Could it be that he was suspicious of the dark ghost before, and thought about a story of the "moving China" model crookedly?

But what is that win?

The words have come to this point, and there is no need to hide them anymore, Ru Ji took out the Fang Sheng hidden in his sleeve and handed it to Chen Run: "You want to marry Cai Wan, it's not that you can't do it, but you tell me first, what is this?" ”

When Chen Run saw the lip print, his face turned red, as if he wanted to throw it on the ground but felt that it was not appropriate, and looked up in shock and asked Ruji: "Dongjia, what is this?" ”

"This is what I asked you, why did you ask me back?" Ru Xi carefully observed his expression, and saw that even his ears were a little red, his eyebrows were raised, and his eyes were wide, but the element of surprise was very large, and there was no element of shame or fear.

Chen Run was stunned and said, "Owner, I, I've never seen anything like this. This...... If this is mine, how can I still bring it to the store......"

There is some truth in this sentence, looking at Chen Run's account management and store management, they are all very careful. Putting Fang Sheng's purse on the counter like this is still relatively easy to find, and it is not like his style.

"I found it in that bamboo purse at the counter." Although Ruji's heart was loose, her face was still tense.

Chen Run was even more surprised: "Huh? No, when Cai Wan gave me this purse, there was only wormwood and bay leaves to repel mosquitoes, and there was no such thing. I was hit by a guest with wine this morning, and I took it off and put it on the counter. But...... The bay leaves in this purse have tasted weak for a long time, and I haven't opened them. ”

"You haven't opened it? Have you ever taken it off somewhere? Ru Ji felt more and more that there was something wrong with this so-called clan relatives Li Niang, "Have you taken it off when you went to see Li Niang, and have you given it to her?" ”

Chen Run immediately understood, but was still a little incredulous: "Show it to her." She said that my purse pattern is good, embroidery is good, I want to borrow it to see what it looks like in the future, and I will learn to make ready-to-wear embroidery or something. I showed it to her. But...... But she's my sister, and I don't really think much of her. She, she—" After thinking about some of the details, she suddenly understood, "Then I won't see her again." ”

Only then did Ru Ji ease her expression: "Brother Run, you get up first." ”

Chen Run got up according to his words, and took the initiative to add: "Owner, I really just looked at Liniang's pity, thinking that it was my uncle's daughter who went to help her." Maybe she meant something else, but I didn't, and I won't see her again. After a pause, he was a little embarrassed, "That, the owner, pick the ...... Are you mad at me? ”

Ru Ji glanced at him: "This, you can do it yourself." ”

Back in the house, Ruji asked Xia Yin to go to the picking room to repeat it, she was a little lazy, and she was too lazy to say it from beginning to end.

In less than a cup of tea, Cai Wan came over to speak with a look of embarrassment, and Ru Ji made fun of Cai Wan a few words, and did not make her too much. Because no matter what she thinks, Ru Ji feels that this thing is wrong.

In ancient times, information was blocked, Cai Wan and Chen Run were young, and they didn't think too much about things. But Ruji, who has watched countless TV series from all over the world and all kinds of dog blood, is different, why is it just the adopted daughter of a clan uncle who is in her arms, hasn't Chen Run left his hometown in Chenzhou for many years? Also rouge lip prints? This adopted daughter is going to starve to death and die of illness, where did Rouge and Xue Tao come from?

And that Hu Erniang, who really met an orphan girl from the same township, either stayed in her own store to do chores, or she was introduced to work for others, and actually pulled her to Chen Run for help?

Is this a fairy jump? Or some other trap? Or - Shi Zhonglang?

As soon as she thought of this name, Ru Ji instantly felt a lot more determined, if Shi Zhonglang still wanted to plot Cai Wan and Chen Run in this life, violent injuries would definitely not work. Even if he didn't know that he had found someone to protect him secretly, just looking at the lesson that he almost lost his life in Jingzhao Yamen before, Shi Zhonglang would no longer be so simple and rude to defy the law.

So is the Liniang in front of her out of Shi Zhonglang's instructions?

Xia Yin's investigation soon paid off initially, Li Niang was quite safe every day, her appearance was indeed good, and her voice was very delicate. But to say that she is a poor daughter is not quite like it. Most of the women in Chenzhou are fair-skinned, and there is nothing wrong with this, but this Liniang's hands and feet are too slender. Although she herself explained that her parents loved her and did less clumsy work, it was somewhat far-fetched.

Hu Erniang really has some dealings with Liniang from time to time, but after a few days of observation, there are no too special words and deeds. But I just took some clothing and asked Liniang to cut it into ready-to-wear, and it really didn't look like a problem.

Ru Ji didn't believe that Hu Erniang would be so kind. Some people are cold-faced and warm-hearted, or they are kind and gentle to those close to them, and they are not very patient with outsiders, and that is within a normal range. If Liniang is a fellow countryman, then Chen Run is even more so. Looking at the original in Jixiang Buzhuang, Hu Erniang's beating and scolding of Chen Run is clearly without mercy, and has exceeded a certain moral bottom line.

Thinking of this, Ru Ji suddenly felt that there were several more possibilities, so she simply took some silver and gave it to Xia Yin, asking her to go to the people of the Tianxing Dart Bureau to continue to help, and pay attention to Li Niang and Hu Erniang day and night, there must be other strange things here.
