174: Pick a day

When the news of the court reached Xia Ruan's ears, it was already the second day.

Although Li An is now a four-rank idle official, he still has to go to court every day according to the rules.

When Li An said these words, he still had some helplessness: "What do you think my grandfather is thinking?" If you want to put the mud on the wall, you don't have to ask if the wall is willing. ”

After Xia Ruan heard this, he just smiled faintly.

In fact, Li Ang knows much better than her.

Li An now seems to have to learn to grow up, and the relationship between the Jiang family and the Li family has slowly cracked.

Who is the one standing behind the Jiang family?

Xia Ruan rubbed his eyebrows, and thought of the homeless people he met on the street when he came back that night. Now the situation in Los Angeles is not optimistic, and the people over there have begun to flock to Kyoto, but no one has noticed the abnormality and told Emperor Jianguang about these situations, which is too weird.

She bit her lower lip, could it be that the third uncle was going to go in person this time?

No, the third uncle can't leave Kyoto at this time.

Thinking of this, Xia Ruan quickly stood up and said to Chongli outside the door: "Go and prepare a carriage for me, I want to go to the Chengguo Mansion." ”

Chongli also felt a little uneasy these days, and after hearing Xia Ruan's words, he nodded: "The little one will go immediately." ”

Xia Ruan clenched his palms tightly, this matter seemed to be in advance.

The distance from Dayang Hutong to Li's house is not far, but Xia Ruan feels that this journey seems to be longer than in the past.

She sat in the carriage and lifted the curtains to look outside, only to see many soldiers driving away the homeless. Those people were skinny. Among them was a teenager, dressed in tatters, but he dared to glare at the soldiers: "Don't beat my mother, don't, if you want to beat me, just beat me." ”

After saying that, the young man rushed forward, grabbed the soldier's hand and bit it.

The boy probably hadn't eaten for a long time, but he was gently pushed and fell to the ground.

Xia Ruan was slightly stunned, and there was an unwilling look in this child's eyes...... It's like she used to be.

"Stop." Xia Ruan said to Chong Li.

Chongli quickly stopped the carriage, and he was a little puzzled: "Miss? There are too many displaced people here, so let's get out quickly? ”

Chongli has not yet spoken. Xia Ruan got out of the carriage. The frightened Duran hurriedly followed.

The soldier had already swung the whip in his hand and whipped the boy several times, and the boy threw himself on a dirty woman and helped her block all the whippings. The soldier couldn't help but take a sip when he saw this, as if he was puzzled. I wanted to stab the boy a few times from the sword.

"Stop."

Xia Ruan walked over slowly. His brows furrowed slightly.

The boy seemed to be a little unconscious after being beaten. He looked at Xia Ruan's eyes, and he no longer had the look of a living person.

The soldiers glanced at Xia Ruan, and then laughed like ruffians: "Yo." Which lady is this?,If you want to be a living bodhisattva, you have to look at your own weight.。 We're doing what we're told, and if we don't want to die, we'll get away. ”

"Bold." Duran hurriedly defended, "You know that my young lady is ......"

Xia Ruan glanced at Duran and interrupted Duran's words.

Xia Ruan usually brings some silver when she goes out, even if she doesn't bring cash silver, she will bring some silver tickets, she took out a hundred taels of silver tickets from her cuffs and handed them to the soldiers: "Can this kid let me take it, buy some wine and drink this silver?" ”

The people who served in Kyoto, whether they were imperial court officials or ordinary soldiers, were not short of silver. Therefore, if you want to send them away with a few taels of silver, it is in vain.

Since you want to save people, you should simply take out more.

"Huh?" The soldier glanced at Xia Ruan, then at Chongli who was standing behind Xia Ruan, and hesitated for a while before taking the silver ticket, "Take him with you, beggars are not allowed here, hurry up." ”

Xia Ruan nodded, then turned his head to look at the young man: "Come with me, I'll find you a doctor." ”

The young man looked at Xia Ruan with some unwillingness, only to feel that the girl in front of him with a skin like jade and a kind face was extremely dazzling. He opened his mouth before he said, "I...... I'm not a beggar. ”

"yes, I know." Xia Ruan smiled and looked at the young man with a pure face, "Let's go, your mother seems to be very sick." ”

The young man heard Xia Ruan talk about his mother, and then quickly nodded.

Xia Ruan first took the boy and the boy's mother to the hospital, let Du Ruo guard on the side, and then went to the Chengguo Mansion again.

The young man watched Xia Ruan's carriage gradually disappear, still a little in a dream, he glanced at Du Ruo beside him, thoughtfully.

……

Chongli didn't understand why Xia Ruan did this, there are too many homeless people now, and saving a child named Huazi is a complete waste of silver. And although a hundred taels of silver is just a small amount of money for Xia Ruan, it is too expensive.

However, Chongli did not say these words, because he was just a subordinate.

In fact, Xia Ruan himself didn't know why, so he would save that child.

Maybe it's because it feels so familiar......

In her previous life, she was also miserable like this.

When she and Xia Wen first entered Beijing, they had too little silver, and they saved money every day. It was cold that year, Xia Wen was seriously ill, and she could only drag Xia Wen to the hospital, but the snow was too big, and she was thin and walked slowly.

When I finally went to the hospital, I was driven out with a look of disdain.

Xia Ruan was frightened at that time, if Xia Wen died, then she would be alone in the future.

Later, someone rescued her and Xia Wen.

That person just said to the shopkeeper of the medical hall: "Saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, why should the shopkeeper insist on this?" ”

She was already frozen stupid at the time, and she didn't see the person's face clearly.

It's just the girl's voice that makes her remember it vividly.

Saving this teenager now is just a gesture for her.

Why should your heart be so hardened?

After arriving at Li's house, Chongli stopped the carriage: "Miss, it's here." ”

"Hmm." Xia Ruan gathered his mind and slowly got out of the carriage.

This time she didn't have a maid with her. Therefore, the Li family's maid consciously followed Xia Ruan's side.

Xia Ruan didn't care, just let Yahuan lead the way.

My grandfather and my third uncle had a conflict recently, and Xia Ruan naturally knew why the two had a conflict.

His grandfather was thinking about the future of the Li family, so sacrificing the happiness of his children was right in his eyes. The third uncle is not like this, the third uncle interferes in her family affairs because he wants her to choose the happiness that belongs to her.

Because back then, whether it was the grandfather who forced his mother to the Xia family and the Song family, or let the third uncle marry the Jiang family, all this seemed to be for the happiness of the children. But in reality, it was a mistake.

"The third lady has arrived." Yahuan said softly.

Soon someone came in. Li Changfeng waited inside for a long time before saying, "Let her in." ”

There are also a lot of camellia planted outside Li Changfeng's study, and Xia Ruan was actually a little curious when he first came, why Li Changfeng likes camellias. But later, inadvertently, Xia Ruan heard her mother say: "When I was a child, the third brother always liked to do bad things. He knocked over a lot of his grandfather's camellias. He said he wanted to make room for his mother to plant pear trees. ”

Great-grandfather seems to be different from maternal grandfather. It's just that Xia Ruan rarely heard her mother mention these things.

Thinking of this, Xia Ruan slowly walked in.

It's just that after she went in, she was a little dumbfounded.

Xiao Jiu sat on the side and looked at her with a smile on his face.

How did he end up here?

Xia Ruan was suddenly a little at a loss. But he pretended to be calm and glanced at the third uncle, opened his mouth and did not speak.

Li Changfeng smiled: "Sit down, I was talking to Xiao Jiu about something, I didn't expect you to come." Ah Ruan will choose the time, but the third uncle also wants to ask you what you mean, this day of marriage, I see that the fifth day of the sixth month is good, everything is suitable, what do you think? ”

Xia Ruan just sat down, and was stunned by Li Changfeng's words.

What are they talking about?

Aren't you talking about L.A.?

And isn't it a little too strange to ask her these things?

At this time, Yahuan sent a tea cup, and Xia Ruan quickly took it without thinking about it. Her actions like this made Xiao Jiu's gaze change from plain to hot, and the focused Xia Ruan almost couldn't hold the teacup in his hand.

Xiao Jiu looked at it for a while, and only after looking away did Xia Ruan feel that his chest was not so stuffy.

"Master Li will be fine." Xiao Jiu's voice was very good, Xia Ruan quickly took a sip of tea, and felt that today's tea was really good.

Seeing that Xia Ruan didn't speak, Li Changfeng thought that she agreed, and then happily picked up the pen and wrote something on the desk before saying, "Although the days are a little tighter, this can also allow Xiao Jiu to go to Los Angeles with peace of mind." This time, if it is done, it will be easy to speak when you come back to the emperor. ”

"Hmm." Xiao Jiuqingjun's eyebrows carried an innate sense of alienation, which had long disappeared at this time, "I won't wronged Ah Ruan." ”

When Xia Ruan looked at Xiao Jiu, he couldn't say half a sentence.

Xiao Jiu is the same as in his previous life, whether he is Xiao Jiu or Xiao Shaocheng, he seems to be cold and indifferent to everyone. Even when he laughed, although it made people feel comfortable, they could clearly feel that there was actually a distance from talking to this person.

But Xia Ruan knew that as long as Xiao Jiu was a little attentive, his smile could make people feel like a spring breeze.

Now Xiao Jiu laughed, which made her feel very comfortable.

Li Changfeng laughed: "You have to be careful this time, I think Los Angeles is not as simple as you think, but I still want Ang Li to go with you." Although this kid is not serious on weekdays, he is still very useful when it is critical, you know I won't talk nonsense. Moreover, over there in Los Angeles, the little general of the Song family has a little friendship with Li An, and he can help you ......"

"Nope." After Xia Ruan entered the room for so long, he finally spoke, and quickly interrupted Li Changfeng's words.

At this time, Xiao Jiu's eyes flashed slightly, looking at Xia Ruan's expression, as if he was smiling.

Li Changfeng was also a little surprised, his niece was usually a calm person, why would she say anything at this time.

Li Changfeng didn't wait for Xia Ruan to explain, "Why? Don't you believe your cousin? ”

"It's not." Xia Ruan thought of those things in his previous life, and firmly rejected Li Changfeng's proposal, "I believe in my cousin, but ......"

She believed in Ang Lee's ability in her heart, but she was more afraid that the events of her previous life would happen again. (To be continued......)
