Chapter 774: Almost Recognized
I was thinking of going out early the next morning to find an errand to do, but it rained again in Luoyang City, and the rain stopped suddenly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info [Latest Chapter Reading] trapped Xie Xueya's footsteps, and he couldn't leave this inn for half a step.
One morning, Xue Ya opened the window and saw that the rain in the patio outside was as thin as a cow's hair, but she didn't mean to stop completely, and couldn't help but sigh, she couldn't go out again today.
There are not many guests in this inn, and most of them are businessmen who come to Luoyang for business, and they are in a hurry, often staying overnight and leaving, and no one cares about anyone. Even so, Xue Ya was still afraid of arousing suspicion, so he lived in seclusion, except for going to the tailor shop opposite to retrieve a few of his custom-made clothes, he did not take a step out of the inn.
In the midst of boredom, Xue Ya looked at the birds occasionally passing by on the wet rockery in the patio, and said to himself: "After the rain, the two birds come to occupy the bamboo, and the butterfly looks for flowers in the late autumn......"
Before she finished speaking, she heard a "giggle" laugh from outside the door, and then the proprietress knocked on the door and said, "Miss Xie, the lunch you want has been delivered." ”
Xue Ya's expression was grim, she walked to the door, lowered her head and opened the door, and before she could speak, she saw the proprietress squeeze into the door with a tray in a flash.
Because she didn't expect her to do this at all, Xue Ya was a little at a loss, and said in a low voice: "I'll handle it myself here, and I won't trouble the boss lady." ”
The proprietress didn't hear it at all, she quickly set up the dishes and chopsticks for Xueya, served the meal, and stood by with a smile and looked at Xueya, as if she was ready to serve her at any time.
Xue Ya looked at the look of the proprietress and couldn't help but panic in her heart. She thought secretly: "Why did the proprietress personally serve me to dine today, could it be that my identity has been discovered?" ”
Seeing Xue Ya looking at herself with vigilant eyes, the proprietress laughed heartily first: "Miss Xie, don't be afraid. I don't have any malice, it's not that there are not many people in the store, plus it's raining continuously, I'm also bored in the store alone, so I'll come to talk to you. If you won't let me go. ”
Xue Ya didn't want her to stay in her room, but when she thought that she would have to live in this store for a while, it would be bad to have a stiff relationship with the proprietress, so she smiled faintly and said, "What did my aunt say?" I came to Luoyang from other places to join my relatives, I am not familiar with the place, and I am looking for someone to give me guidance, and my aunt came just in time. ”
When the proprietress heard her say this, her expression was much lighter, and she hurriedly poured a cup of tea for Xue Ya and put it in her hand.
"Why is my aunt so polite? If I want to drink, I will pour it, how embarrassed to bother my aunt. Xue Ya forced a smile on the surface, but her heart became more and more uneasy.
The proprietress patted her on the shoulder: "Don't pretend!" ”
Just this sentence, Xue Ya was so shocked that she almost knocked over the teacup. She said with a trembling voice, "Auntie...... Are you kidding? ”
"Where's the joke?" The proprietress sat on the round stool in front of Xue Ya: "You still said you didn't lie to me?" ”
Xue Ya became more and more frightened - if his identity was discovered by the people here and reported to the government, he would be arrested in the dark palace. But the emperor doesn't take his life seriously at all, if he learns that the concubine has not been found, and he is found, he is afraid that he will take a bad breath out of himself, and the consequences will ......
Just when Xue Ya's heart was overturned, the proprietress said again: "Why is your face so ugly?" But I'm not feeling well, let me see if I have a cold and fever? ”
As she spoke, she reached out to touch Xue Ya's forehead and test her body temperature. Xue Ya looked back at her coldly, and subconsciously avoided her.
The proprietress was stunned for a moment, and then smiled with relief: "You are a big girl, you are alone, and it is right to be more careful." However, you are thinking too much, and I have no ill intentions at all. I say pretending because I can see that you are behaving like you are always being served by your side. It's not like the daughter of an ordinary businessman, but like a young lady from a big official's family, who escaped from the house because of some things. ”
Seeing that Xue Ya's eyes widened and she didn't speak, the proprietress affirmed her judgment even more: "Actually, you don't have to panic, this thing is not uncommon in Luoyang City." Now the ladies of the rich merchant families have ideas, and it is not uncommon for them to run out of the house for a few days.
Speaking of this, she lowered her voice: "When the prime minister of the court, Lord Luo, do you know? ”
Xue Ya nodded.
"The only daughter of his family is right, and she won't return home for three days and two ends, and she has lived in a better inn in Luoyang City. We've been here once, and she's brought a face to her that time! Later, I don't know why I didn't come, maybe I was watched closely by Prime Minister Luo! ”
Xue Ya heard what she said, unheard of it, and couldn't help but open her mouth in surprise.
The proprietress also felt that she was far away, smiled and said, "Of course you are different from Miss Naluo. At first glance, you are a good girl who knows everything, and I am happy to be with people like you. ”
Xue Ya heard that she didn't seem to have any intention of denouncing herself, and her heart gradually returned to her stomach. She smiled lightly and said: "I'm really not the lady that my aunt said, my family is only a well-off family, maybe because my father used to be a lifter, so he taught me to read for a few years." I came to Luoyang this time because I had no choice but to go to Beijing to join my family. Unexpectedly, my relatives moved, and I couldn't find them for a while, so I had to live in the inn first. ”
The proprietress listened to Xue Ya's words, and immediately came to her senses: "Girl, if your relatives can't find it, what are your plans?" Have you ever been married at home......"
As soon as Xue Ya heard the words of the proprietress, she felt guilty in her heart: "Why do I ask someone if I have decided to marry without saying a word, do you love to tell people as soon as you are old?" In my current situation, where is the time to get married? ”
So she said very simply: "Regarding the matter of marriage, it is the purpose of my coming to Luoyang, I came to join my husband's family." ”
As soon as she heard that there was no possibility of talking about the matchmaker, the proprietress immediately darkened.
Xue Ya didn't want her to be too embarrassed, so she was busy and said: "But now my husband's family hasn't been found, and I live here every day, and I'm thinking about whether I can go out to find an errand." I don't know if my aunt has a way? ”
"Let me think about it." When the proprietress saw Xue Ya open her mouth to ask her for help, she immediately came to her senses. She thought for a moment, and then asked, "I wonder what the girl will do?" ”
"I heard that in Luoyang City, the little brokers who trim the cats and dogs of the noble families and cut their claws have received a lot of silver. When I was at home, I also kept a few small things, and I took care of them all by myself, and I felt that I had no difficulty in doing these things, so I wanted to find such an errand. "Snow
Ya said seriously.
