16. (xvi)
"You're here anyway."
One of Jiang Yuanzhong's feet had already stepped into the backyard, and he shrank back because of this shout. Slowly turning around, what caught my eye was the angry face. He sighed in a complicated mood, his heart was that disaster could not be avoided, and it was necessary to come sooner or later.
"What? Not installed now? Ken admitted? The girl in red stood at the door and asked aggressively, "Think I won't recognize you with a human skin mask?" ”
"Would you like to come in and have a cup of tea?" Jiang Yuan interrupted her questioning slowly, asked as if he was greeting an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time, and really walked to the table and poured himself a cup of tea.
The girl in red was angry for a while, and after thinking that standing in the doorway was indeed very eye-catching, she reluctantly walked in.
Jiang Yuan looked at the bamboo tube containing the tea leaves, stood up and walked to the counter, and said to Su Muxian, who was posing and was about to watch the play: "Get me a can of Longjing, and you will record it on my account when you turn around." ”
Su Muxian was a little unhappy: "It's still on your account, how much is your monthly salary." ”
Having said that, his hand still took out a tea can from under the counter, and handed it to Jiang Yuanzhong with some pain.
"Oh, the best Ming Qian Longjing, go and entertain you...... Friends. ”
She looked over through Jiang Yuan, the girl in red was sitting at the table playing with the small beads on the sword spike, with a faint impatient look on her face, and suppressed her occasional glance that seemed to be casually thrown here.
Su Muxian almost accidentally met her gaze, lowered his head as if he was a thief, and felt that he was doing this as if he had a ghost in his heart, so he stretched out his hand and pressed his eyebrows quite uncomfortably.
Jiang Yuanzhong turned the teapot, didn't notice the actions of the woman in red behind him, lowered his head and said to Su Muxian: "I'm not busy in the morning, borrow your place from the shopkeeper, and I'll deal with some personal matters." ”
"Deal with private matters, don't do it if you don't agree with Tang Yu." Su Muxian meant something.
Jiang Yuan smiled heavily and said lightly: "No." ”
Seeing him say this, Su Muxian nodded with an "um", and didn't know how to answer, so he took the miscellaneous book pressed under the account book and then read it absentmindedly on the previous page. She only wore her hair in a loose bun today, and as soon as her head was lowered, a strand of broken hair fell from her ears to her eyes.
At this time, Jiang Yuanzhong hadn't left yet, and when he saw the light strands of hair, he somehow felt a little obstructive, and his fingers moved, and he pushed it behind her ears before his brain could react.
Su Muxian's body stiffened, and he slowly raised his head: "What are you doing?" ”
The slightly itchy touch still stayed at the fingertips, Jiang Yuan twisted his fingers again, and was also a little surprised by his reflexive actions, frowning secretly, he put his hands behind his back, and there was the lazy smile on his face.
"Handy." He said.
Su Muxian gave him a roll of the eyes, and pushed him from behind: "Go busy with your private affairs, don't pestle me in front of you." ”
If she didn't leave, she felt that the girl in red was going to pick up a sword to cut her.
Jiang Yuanzhong obediently walked away, and as soon as he left, the little fat man who was waiting on the side immediately pounced again.
"Su Shopkeeper ......"
Su Muxian pointed at his head and pushed him away, while cruelly and ruthlessly refusing: "No. ”
Please, where did the shopkeeper of her small inn dare to hire a dignified son as a junior, although his father is only a prince with a different surname, but that is also a prince is not.
The little fat man is young, and he has a figure that develops horizontally, and he is half a head shorter than her in terms of height, so he was easily pushed away by her. It wasn't until he received the vicious eyes of the two guards that Su Muxian pursed his lips and withdrew his fingers.
Huo Fei didn't think there was anything offensive about her behavior, rubbed his slightly red forehead, and said with some grievances: "I didn't mean to say this. ”
"And what do you want to say?"
Huo Fei pointed his fingers and pursed his mouth and said, "I'm hungry." ”
said that he was hungry, but his eyes involuntarily glanced at the seat where Jiang Yuanzhong and the woman in red were sitting near the window. The gossip in his eyes was so obvious that even Su Muxian could see it.
She glanced over there, Jiang Yuanzhong and the woman in red seemed to be talking about something, but they were far away and couldn't hear anything.
Retracting her gaze, she looked at the little fat man and asked, "What do you want to eat?" The shop is small, I'm afraid there is nothing to eat. ”
The inn is simple, and there are only porridge and steamed buns at most in the early morning, and it is expected that this little young master in fine clothes and jade food will not be used to it.
Huo Fei thought for a while and said, "Red date and ginseng soup, hibiscus flower cake, brocade cake soup, bird's nest white fungus lotus seed porridge...... Just a few of them. ”
Su Muxian: "...... What a coincidence, we don't have any inns as you mentioned. ”
Little Fat Man: "......"
He wondered, "Then how did your inn go down?" ”
Not everyone is as rich as you, so it's okay to be able to eat two steamed buns in the morning.
Su Muxian was about to answer, but saw that he waved his hand indifferently: "Forget it, just go on what you have." "He's not a picky eater anyway.
Shopkeeper Su: "......"
This mouthful of old blood stuck in the throat.
……
They were talking here, and Jiang Yuanzhong was also talking.
"Taste, the shopkeeper's private collection of the Ming Qian Longjing."
The pale green tea gently ripples in the porcelain-white cup, exuding a pleasant fragrance. Jiang Yuanzhong pushed the teacup in front of Shen Ying, saw that she was stiff and didn't speak, and sighed helplessly.
"You shouldn't have come."
Shen Ying said angrily with a cold face: "What do you mean I shouldn't come?" ”
Jiang Yuan changed his sitting posture and said seriously: "This sword conference is not as simple as you think, just your fist and embroidered legs, what really happened, you can only rush to give people heads." ”
Shen Ying, who was described as embroidering legs with fists, silently reached out and held the hilt of the sword: "Jiang Qiguang, you despicable and shameless bastard who hides his head and tail dare to say that I embroider legs with fists?" ”
Jiang Yuanzhong raised his eyes lazily and said, "Is what I said wrong?" If you can make ten moves under me, I'll take it back. ”
Shen Ying choked, and didn't know what to refute.
After a while, she snorted coldly: "It's better to embroider legs with fists than some people running away like cowards." ”
Jiang Yuanzhong didn't like to hear this.
He filled his teacup and said slowly: "First of all, I didn't leave home to escape from marriage, and secondly, I never recognized the marriage contracts of those old men who were about to die. Finally ......"
"Do you just want to marry me?"
"Who wants to marry you! Less self-inflicted and more amorous! The woman in red had a look of disgust at eating an apple and eating half a worm.
She and Jiang Yuanzhong can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, but since they were children, they have hated each other, and their relationship is like water and fire, and there are few opportunities to sit down and talk as calmly as now.
Jiang Yuan spread his hands and said, "That's it, I'm not interested in marrying you anyway." ”
What is going to happen to the marriage contract that both parties are not happy about, it is better to leave early to save those troubles.
Shen Ying frowned and said, "That's not good. ”
"Why not?"
Shen Ying pursed her lips and said bluntly: "Either marry you, or marry those men I haven't even met, and I don't want to." ”
"That's your Shen family's business, what does it have to do with me?"
Although the Shen family is a friend of the Jiang family, he doesn't have to worry about the marriage of other people's daughters.
"How is it irrelevant to you? You learned that you were engaged to run away overnight, and everyone who knew about it was laughing at me, and you still said that it had nothing to do with you? Shen Ying slapped the table angrily.
She gets angry at the mention of this stubble. Although she was also very dissatisfied with this marriage contract, Jiang Yuanzhong directly escaped the marriage and slapped her naked in the face. As the only daughter in the family, she grew up in the palm of her hand since she was a child, but Jiang Yuanzhong caused her to lose face, and she didn't dare to leave the house lightly during that time, for fear of hearing other people's gossip.
What "it must be that Miss Shen is too ugly to look down on Jiang Gongzi", "Miss Shen is too spicy and not a good wife", etc., she just wants to draw her sword and cut people.
Jiang Yuanzhong was helpless: "I said that I didn't leave the Jiang family because of the marriage contract." ”
After a pause, he added: "Of course, this is part of the reason. ”
"I don't care, you have to go back with me." She really couldn't swallow the humiliating breath, and besides......
She looked at Jiang Yuanzhong's silent face and added: "Moreover, the old lady is also sick, don't you really go back to see her?" ”
Mrs. Jiang is Jiang Yuanzhong's grandmother, and she is now the leader of Shenjian Villa. Jiang Yuanzhong has been sluggish since childhood, and he has no mother at the age of ten, and he is all raised by the old lady herself, and the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren is a little closer than that of ordinary people, and now that she is sick, it is impossible for Jiang Yuanzhong not to return if he still has a little filial piety.
Sure enough, as soon as her words fell, Jiang Yuanzhong lowered his eyes.
"I ......" He was just about to speak, when a wisp of fresh wind blew in from the window, and the faint fragrance on Shen Ying's body instantly rushed in front of him by taking advantage of the wind.
Caught off guard and took a few breaths, Jiang Yuanzhong's face suddenly became difficult to look at.
"Ahh
He sneezed and quickly took a dozen or so steps back, making sure he had a safe distance from Shen Ying.
"You still have those damn orchids? It's a shame that you can smoke such a bad smell on your clothes. ”
Shen Ying is a nymphomaniac, the kind of who loves flowers like her life, and her favorite is orchids. Hearing Jiang Yuanzhong say this at this time, and remembering the incident he did before leaving home, Shen Ying couldn't help but be angry.
"I smell that you smashed those pots of Whelan in the flower building?"
Jiang Yuanzhong wrote lightly: "The wind blows." ”
With such a perfunctory answer, he knew the correct answer as soon as he heard it, Shen Ying drew his long sword, swung his sword and slashed at Jiang Yuan.
"Jiang Qiguang, you bastard, dare to touch my flowers! Believe it or not, I'll kill you! ”
……
Huo Fei and the three of them sat at a table not far from the two of them to eat breakfast, this scene came suddenly, and the little fat man didn't have time to react when he saw Shen Ying pull out his sword to cut people, and he was so shocked that the fritters in his hand fell off.
The guard Ajia threw away the scallion pancake in his hand, and the long sword was unsheathed and protected in front of the little fat man.
"Protect the Son!"
"Sure enough, the people in the rivers and lakes are powerful, if they don't agree with each other, they will fight when they say so." Huo Fei muttered, completely unaware of the guard's nervous state of mind.
Guardian Ajia: ......
Escort Ayi: ......
Young master, you are a little panicked, okay?
……
Jiang Yuan was able to ridicule Shen Ying for only embroidering her legs, and her own level was naturally beyond doubt.
Without giving her a second chance to swing the sword, he saw the opportunity and went directly behind Shen Ying and clicked on her acupoint.
Shen Ying: "......"
She scolded angrily: "Jiang Qiguang, you have the ability to let me go and fight to the death!" You're not going to win! You...... Woowoo woo ......"
Seeing that she was too noisy and casually clicked on her acupoint and didn't let her make a sound, Jiang Yuanzhong slowly straightened his sleeves and said, "Let go of you, even if you do it again, it will be the same ending." ”
He turned his head and raised his eyebrows: "This is called strength suppression." ”
After speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, turned his head to look in the direction of the counter, and sure enough, Su Muxian had already been attracted by the movement here, and stood up at this time and was looking at it blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Jiang Yuanzhong hesitated for a moment, and finally smiled at her.
"Shopkeeper, I didn't do anything."
