Chapter 34 Diligence
In Chang Runzhi's heart, Liu Tong's appearance was mentioned as a candidate for her future husband.
So she was destined to be different from Liu Tong and others from the beginning.
Then when she met Liu Tong, she came into contact with him with a critical and scrutinizing gaze.
First of all, she felt that this man was very old-fashioned and warm-hearted.
And then today, she found that although this man was willing to help people, he was also very measured.
Such a person may not make great achievements, but he will not fall into the dust.
In short, this is an ordinary and not mediocre person.
Chang Runzhi himself came to such a conclusion, and his attitude towards Liu Tong should be closer.
Of course, it is impossible for her to regard Liu Tong as her future husband, after all, this is still a shadowless thing. But she can see Liu Tong as a friend.
So when Liu Tong said that she would also be the housewife in the future, she couldn't help but be stunned.
But why is Liu Tong also stunned?
Chang Runzhi was a little puzzled, and couldn't help but look at Liu Tong.
Then I saw his face, which began to turn red at an observable rate.
"Ahem......"
Liu Tong clenched his hands into fists and coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, but he involuntarily avoided Chang Runzhi's scrutiny.
Chang Runzhi thought about it, and began to wonder if Liu Tong knew the old lady's plans.
After all, the old lady asked the eldest sister to probe the wind, maybe Liu Tong heard something from it?
Otherwise, why would he ...... when facing her? Shy?
It's shy, right?
Chang Runzhi thought of this, and his face was a little unbearable.
She pushed the teacup and said, "Is the Nine Emperors' throat uncomfortable?" Drink some tea to moisten your throat. ”
"Well, Runrun, Runrun......" Liu Tong took the tea in disguise, and then seemed to suddenly remember something, and choked suddenly.
The servant he brought with him immediately came up and patted him on the back.
The name of the three girls of the Chang family is Chang Runzhi, and Liu Tong knows it.
This sound "moistened"...... It was as if he was calling her.
How can you not shame him?
Chang Runzhi didn't know why, blinked his eyes, and waited aside.
It is rumored that the Nine Emperors are in poor health and is a sick seedling, but Chang Runzhi doesn't believe it.
But today, when he saw him choking on a sip of tea, he was a little hesitant - could it be that there was really something wrong with the Nine Emperors' body?
When Liu Tong calmed down his breath and his face became as usual, Chang Runzhi breathed a sigh of relief: "Is the Nine Emperors better?" ”
Liu Tong bowed his head lightly and said embarrassedly: "It's rude." ”
"It's okay if the Nine Emperor Princes are fine...... Chang Runzhi waved his hand and said, "Actually, fragrant tea is far less delicious than clear tea." After all, spices are put in the fragrant tea, which is always a little irritating to the throat. The Nine Emperors can try to drink clear tea. ”
"Clear tea?" Liu Tong was puzzled: "What is clear tea?" Tea without spices? ”
"It's the tea buds that are picked, roasted over fire, fried green, and then brewed with boiling water. This kind of tea only has the fragrance of the tea itself, which can calm the mind. Although the taste is much lighter than fragrant tea, I like it the most. ”
Chang Runzhi is not used to drinking the fragrant tea that is prevalent here, and she doesn't even like many incense products. Therefore, what is drunk on weekdays is soaked in water with tea leaves that are baked. The crown princess also once said that she would not drink good things.
When Liu Tong heard her say this, he seemed to feel the light fragrance, and couldn't help but say, "Where is the tea you said is for sale?" I'll buy some and try some too. ”
Chang Runzhi: "I deliberately asked people to wrap the green into small bags after frying them, and now there are still some left in the prince's mansion." If the Nine Emperors want, I'll have two packs for you. ”
"Okay." Liu Tong's heart moved slightly, and he responded unceremoniously.
Chang Runzhi said with a smile: "If you drink it and think it tastes good, the Nine Emperor Princes can also make people bake...... Black tea, black tea, green tea, different tea leaves, after roasting in different ways, the taste of boiling water is also different. ”
Liu Tong said: "If I think it's good to drink, then I'll ask you again?" It also saves me from having people do these processes. ”
Chang Runzhi choked up at his words, covered his lips and smiled: "Then the Nine Emperor Princes will have to prepare the silver." ”
"Are you so stingy? With the sold? Liu Tong smiled: "When did you get into the eyes of money?" ”
"If you don't make money, you won't make it in vain." Chang Runzhi smiled: "I'm kidding you, it's just some tea, when you want it, the Nine Emperor Princes will send someone to say it." ”
Liu Tong was very satisfied: "Then I won't be polite to you." Money is not saved, and my house is very poor. ”
Chang Runzhi was surprised: "A dignified prince is crying poor in front of the daughter of a subordinate? ”
Liu Tong said seriously: "This is the truth. ”
Chang Runzhi only thought he was joking, and echoed: "Okay, then I will reluctantly save this money for the Nine Emperor Princes." ”
Liu Tong smiled, but his heart was a little gloomy.
He's not kidding, he's really poor.
If you are not poor, if you meet the woman who sold herself to bury her father today, she will not only give five taels of silver.
Ordinary people do funerals, and it costs three or four taels of silver to buy a thin-skinned coffin, not to mention the cost of a series of other funeral rites.
Save some, five taels of silver to complete the funeral, collect the gift money from relatives and friends, and let people live for a while.
But more, where is enough?
He was an out-and-out poor prince.
When Liu Tong thought of this, he piled up a lot of memories of the past in his heart.
Even the ripples in my heart that I had brought to my heart because of the sound of "Runrun" gradually calmed down.
Chang Runzhi saw that his face was not very good, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
The two were silent for a while, and Chang Runzhi spoke: "Nine Emperor Princes, it's been some time since I've been out of the mansion, and it's time to go back." ”
She stood up and said goodbye to Liu Tong.
Liu Tong also stood up, a little disappointed, a little annoyed, but still nodded and said, "Then I'll wait for your tea." ”
Chang Runzhi agreed and called Xiao Er to settle the bill.
Xiao Er said that someone had already paid it, and then looked at a servant beside the Nine Emperor Princes.
"The third girl has a treat, I'll pay the bill." Liu Tong said with a smile.
Chang Runzhi smiled bitterly: "Okay, I invited a guest, how can a guest pay the bill?" ”
"Then the three girls remember to owe me a meal, and pay me back next time?" Liu Tong raised his eyebrows slightly.
The corners of Chang Runzhi's mouth hooked slightly: "I should have invited you, but if I didn't do it, I owed a meal." Now it's you inviting me, and it's another meal. Add up...... But I owe two meals. ”
"Then pay back two meals, and I'll earn it."
Liu Tong smiled heartily, sent Chang Runzhi out of the Drunken Immortal Building all the way, and watched her go far away before coming back to her senses.
"Master." The servant beside him said with some pain: "I spent twenty-three taels of silver in the Drunken Immortal Building today. ”
Liu Tong replied in a low voice and sighed: "I just ordered a cup of tea and a plate of pastries last time, and it was only two taels of silver...... The dishes in the Drunken Immortal Building are really expensive. ”
The servant couldn't help but say, "Master, are you being courteous to that Chang San girl?" ”
"Attentive?" Liu Tong pursed his lips, remembering that he had told Miss Chang San before that she should not offend those who were attentive, and she couldn't cry or laugh for a while.
