Chapter 10: Beautiful and Weird
When Xiaozhu saw his master like this, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out. But after thinking about it, she leaned over a little flatteringly and said, "Auntie, you see that Chen Gang is just not interesting." I know that you don't like him as an errand, so you have to ask the housekeeper for an errand to drive for you for a few small dollars. ”
"Oh, you know a lot." Wu still had his eyes closed, and said as if with some praise.
When Xiaozhu heard this, he was overjoyed. Suddenly forgot the advice of his good sister when he went out. Leaned over to Wu and gently tapped her on the back with his hand.
"But isn't it, this Chen Gang is a fellow villager of Madame, and he knows that Madame and you are now a nobleman. But I'm still scratching my face, counting on you to carry it. If you want the maid to say, it is a typical power villain. Xiaozhu served the Wu family diligently, but she had been jealous of the big girl beside the Wu family for a long time.
"Since you know so much about a little maid, then you must know why the Zhihong around me was sold." Wu continued indifferently.
Xiaozhu was struck by lightning, and suddenly paused, and suddenly remembered that her sister had told her that the Wu family hated the most disgusting maid in her life. For the three or four maids who had already been sold, the lord indulged her again, so the eldest lady didn't care about the life or death of those maids.
Thinking of those maids who didn't know where they were sold, Xiaozhu hurriedly retreated a little and kowtowed like Wu: "Auntie spare your life, aunt spare your life!" The maid didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. ”
The Wu family went out to incense today, because most of the people in Wuzhou County who should not have there were them, but there was no decent temple. So she went to a temple in a neighboring county where incense was strong. When I went out this time, I played the Li family's brand, so the carriage I took naturally couldn't be underestimated.
Although there were already various regulations in the time of Gaozu, including the carriage. But the world has changed over time, and now, it is basically in name only. In today's era, laughing at poverty is not laughing at prostitutes. As long as you have money, it's not like you can fix it as you want. For example, the Li family's car, with a two-entry pattern, is three feet wide with a light door. There were a few cushions and a small table in the front room, and a soft couch in the back room, specially prepared for the nobles who went out, and the floor of the carriage was covered with cushions that were said to have come from Persia, which were of great value.
Xiaozhu was in the middle room, kneeling in front of the soft couch and kowtowing, colliding with the soft couch and making a muffled sound. Wu Shi kept silent, the more she thought about it, the more afraid she became, and her head knocked quickly and urgently. At first, he said some nice words in his mouth, but then he was dizzy and only knew to say: "Spare your life, spare your life." ”
Wu Shi slowly opened her eyes, her eyes were amazing, big and bright. When you open it, the waves are sparkling, like a deep lake. There is a hint of blue in the black, mixed together, like a silent temptation.
She looked at the small bamboo on the ground and hooked the corners of her mouth: "Spare your life?" ”
Xiaozhu was overjoyed when she heard that she finally spoke, and quickly raised her head, opened her mouth and was about to say something. Seeing Wu's smiling eyes, he paused for a moment. She shook involuntarily, lowered her head again, and didn't dare to say a word.
Wu picked up a bunch of grapes placed in the depression on the side wall of the soft couch, picked one, and slowly peeled it off.
"Spare your life, is it that important? In this world, isn't the simplest thing to live than to die. ”
Qianqian's plain hands reflect the clear grapes, which is very beautiful. But with the words that came out of the thin red lips, there was a strangeness full of beauty.
Xiaozhu trembled even more, she knelt on the ground, biting her lip, unable to say a word.
"Say, 'This man'. It's just a cheap life, why are so many people reluctant to do it. Wu peeled off the grapes and scratched them with his fingernails, "Then I will fulfill you, isn't it fatal." When you go back, you just pack up your things and go to Aunt Wu's to find a cover. ”
Before Wu's words fell, Xiaozhu's eyes widened in horror and he collapsed to the ground. Who is Aunt Wu, she is the lady who specializes in training in Luofang Academy. And Luofangyuan is the largest Goolan in Wuzhou.
Wu looked at the expressions of the people on the ground interestingly, and enjoyed the pleasure of manipulating other people's lives and deaths. Feeling that even the irritability in her heart had been eliminated, she leaned on the cushion on the soft couch, turned her head to the window, and said like a dream: "This person, it's just a cheap life......
The scenery outside the window is infinitely good, but the old things are easy to get old.
Suddenly, the carriage, which was moving steadily, suddenly stopped.
Facing the sun, Chen Gang squinted, frowned and looked at the person in front of him with some hesitation, and opened his mouth to say, "Is this show dead?" ”
The scholar in Tsing Yi, who stood tall in front of the carriage, smiled loudly: "It's not that you don't want to die, it's just that there are no kind-hearted people to carry a halfway road, and if you think about it, you will die." ”
The horse pulling the frame was tossing and turning with its hooves, Chen Gang couldn't stop soothing it with his hands, it was just frightened by Xie Xiang who suddenly rushed out, and couldn't stop raising its head and shouting.
After hearing Xie Xiang's words, Chen Gang looked at the scholar in front of him with some surprise.
Midsummer has arrived, and the sun is yellowing. Beside the trees there are clumps of rocks and weeds, and this one is ...... It looks like the kind of family children in the teahouse who the storyteller said are like crowns of jade. Chen Gang has also been a long-term follower in the Li family for several years, and has met many so-called sons-in-law, students and doctors. But none of them are like the scholar in front of them, which makes people feel that they have infinite knowledge at a glance.
Chen Gang tried to soften his facial expression, and said gently: "This scholar! There are always inconvenient times when you go out, I will help you ask Mrs., just wait, you be careful not to collide. ”
Nodding, Xie Xiang gave up his hand, took a step back, and stood up straight. Zhengse said: "This is natural. Then I simply straightened my hair with my hands and straightened my appearance.
Chen Gang looked at him and felt very satisfied with his eyes. Some scholars, thinking that they have a bit of ink, began to pretend to be high, but they don't know that when they go out, how can so many people hold a person who is not named except for a few lines of poetry.
Chen Gang tilted his head into the carriage and shouted in a low voice: "Third lady? ”
Xiao Zhu in the carriage was very scared, and when he heard Chen Gang's voice, it was like grasping a straw to save the people. For the first time, she felt that the rough man was still a little useful, and she desperately hoped that something would make the Wu family forget what had just happened.
Wu was lying on the soft couch, hearing Chen Gang's shout, the corners of his mouth were playful.
"Three...... Madam...... Sneer......" she laughed, but her eyes were as cold as ice.
He raised his hand and motioned with his eyes to Xiaozhu to ask what was going on. Xiaozhu quickly got up and walked to the car door, but because he was too nervous, his legs and feet were not good, and he almost fell down several times. Wu couldn't help sneering when he saw it, useless guy, it's better to send it away early.
Xiaozhu lifted the curtain, swallowed his saliva, and asked reluctantly, "What's the matter, my wife is still in the car!" Don't want to get better? Chen Gang smiled at Xiaozhu honestly, "How dare you collide, it's just that this gentleman wants to take a ride." The villain didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he wanted to ask his wife. ”
Xiaozhu frowned, and said coldly: "Do you want to die!" I don't know where the disciple came from, and he dares to offend the carriage of the Li Mansion? ”
Chen Gang was anxious when he heard this: "It's really a scholar, and he looks like an unruly person there." ”
Xiaozhu impatiently poked his head out a little more and glanced under the car casually. At this time, it was a good time in the suburbs of Wujiang, and a breeze touched Xie Xiang's face head-on, and a few strands of hair floated up, covering his eyes. He lifted the wide sleeves of his coat and opened them with his hand, and then smiled at Xiaozhu who was looking at him.
Xiaozhu felt that his heartbeat was a little fast, and his face was still a little feverish, and he turned red in an instant.
Arching his hand, Xie Xiang said towards the carriage Qingyue: "Here is a scholar in Linhuai, Yingtianfu, who intends to study and never expect to encounter an accident. Therefore, today I would like to ask my wife to allow me to take a ride on the wheel, I will not dare to offend, and I will be grateful. ”
Wu stroked the nail of the little finger of his right hand with his left hand and smiled slightly. This scholar's voice is good, and the wording is polite enough. After thinking about it, she called lightly: "Xiaozhu." ”
"Yes,...... Madam, this scholar doesn't look like a bad person. ”
"Snort," Wu laughed disdainfully when he heard the maid say this, "You tell Chen Gang to take that scholar all the way." ”
"Yes."
After Xiaozhu turned around and lowered his face, he turned out of the car with some joy, and his mood was not as panicked as before. She looked at the scholar in green clothes: "Mrs. agreed to give you a ride." ”
Hearing this, Chen Gang opened his mouth and said to Xie Xiang: "Our wife is the most kind-hearted, you can be regarded as running into us far away." ”
Xie Xiang, who was in the car, smiled and didn't say anything, just nodded. Chen Gang didn't care, sat on the wheel and pointed to him and said, "You sit over there." ”
Xiaozhu watched the scholar in Tsing Yi get into the carriage and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say. The scholar only smiled at her and then stopped talking, she bit her lip with her mouth, and lowered the curtain a little angrily.
Wu sat in the car, closed his eyes and recuperated, and he was not summoning Xiaozhu. Xiaozhu didn't dare to get too close to her, and was afraid that the Wu family would find her later, so she picked up a position not far away and sat down slightly.
The carriage swayed along the mountain road, and the mountain wind paved the way, startling the birds all the way from afar. Xie Xiang sat on the wheel, holding the package in one hand and holding the carriage tightly in the other, his face a little stiff.
Chen Gang turned his head to see his expression, and laughed out loud: "Scholars are weak, so I can't stand it." ”
Xie Xiang twitched the corners of his mouth and opened his mouth to speak, but he was poured a mouthful of cold wind, he coughed suddenly, and said intermittently: "Ashamed, ashamed." ”
Chen Gang didn't continue to make fun of him, but slowed down the car a bit. Xie Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and said to Chen Gang sincerely: "Thank you, big brother." ”
Listening to the loud laughter outside the car, Wu was a little dazed, and suddenly he didn't know where he was now, was he still in that mountain village. Suddenly, she pinched herself fiercely, her eyes widened, and her face was a little hideous. But it's also fleeting, and it's so fast that people think it's an illusion.
