Chapter 38
After finishing the business, Wang Bao asked Jiang Wanbai, "Do you want me to take you to other places to visit, there are actually a lot of interesting places in the capital." ”
Jiang Wanbai looked at the sleepiness on his face that couldn't be hidden, where was he embarrassed to trouble him again, so he said: "There's nothing to go around, why don't we go back!" ”
Wang Bao was indeed a little unable to support it, so he didn't force it anymore, looked at the sky, he found that it was almost time for lunch, so he said: "Why don't I invite you to dinner, there is a restaurant near here that makes delicious food, and the price is not expensive." ”
Wang Bao helped Jiang Wanbai so much, she naturally couldn't let him have a treat, so she insisted that she be the east, and she also mentioned that Tian Lian was still at home, so it was better for them to pack some wine and food from the restaurant and go back to eat together.
Wang Bao couldn't shirk it, so he nodded and agreed, so the two packed meals in the restaurant and went back to meet Tian Lao and his wife.
From a distance, I saw Wang and Tian Lao Er sitting there talking about something, talking and talking, Tian Lao Er pointed to the medicine and smiled, laughing like a tender green seedling, full of hope, and Wang covered his mouth and cried, however, unlike the previous sad crying, she cried with laughter, more relieved and happy.
It seems that the knot between the Wang family and Tian Lao Er has been untied, Jiang Wanbai looked over there and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Actually, this is another reason why she left the two of them here, and fortunately, they lived up to her expectations.
At this time, Tian Lao Er and the others also saw Jiang Wanbai, so they quickly stood up and waited for Jiang Wanbai to order.
Jiang Wanbai briefly told what had just happened, and then everyone went home to eat together. This time I entered Beijing, on the whole, it was quite smooth, so Jiang Wanbai was also very happy, and everyone enjoyed a meal.
After drinking and eating, Wang Bao couldn't help yawning, but he insisted on talking to Jiang Wanbai and them, which made Jiang Wanbai grateful and a little embarrassed at the same time.
"We'll be back in a minute, and now that the sun is setting late, we should be able to get home before it sets." Jiang Wanbai said.
Wang Bao's home is not big, in order to arrange for them to rest, he even sent his own children to a relative's house, Jiang Wanbai didn't want to trouble him so much.
"Why is it so fast, it's not easy to come to such a time." Wang Bao's spirits perked up, "Let's stay a few more days!" ”
Jiang Wanbai shook her head, "There are still a lot of things to do at home, and we can't do without people, and besides, we should come to the capital again after a while, there are some things, but we are not in a hurry to have a while." ”
Jiang Wanbai is telling the truth, Zhang's screen still has to be sold in the city, Tian Lao and his wife have to come to see a doctor, and her river fresh...... All of these events and events indicate that she will inevitably come to the capital in the future.
After this calculation, Jiang Wanbai felt that maybe the family should buy a cow and get an ox cart, so that they would not always have to borrow from the third uncle if they wanted to enter the city in the future, and besides, with cattle, it would be much more convenient to farm.
This thought flashed through her mind, Jiang Wanbai kept it in her heart, and then said goodbye to Wang Bao.
Wang Bao also knew that Jiang Wanbai's family had a lot of people and a lot of things, and seeing that she had made up her mind, he reluctantly sent them to the main road, telling them to follow this road all the way to get out of the city, and finally told them to be careful all the way.
Jiang Wanbai thanked her again, and then everyone got on the ox cart and walked out of the city.
Out of the city gate, Jiang Wanbai looked back at the capital, only to see the huge city gate crawling in the sun like a sleeping dragon.
Through the city gate, the eyes are full of green tiles and red walls, the abrupt horizontal cornices, the fluttering banners, as well as the sparkling carriages and horses and the endless flow of pedestrians, all of which make people shocked and sigh, it turns out that the ancient capital is like this.
"Mother?" Tian Lao Er saw that Jiang Wanbai had been staring at the back, and thought she was waiting for someone, so he stopped the ox cart and asked out loud.
Jiang Wanbai was stunned for a moment, and was just about to retract his gaze, when he saw a purple-robed young man coming on a horse in the distance, disturbing countless pedestrians along the way, and seeing that, he was about to arrive at the city gate.
It's Ouyang Jun, why is he here?
He certainly wasn't here to see him off. Could it be that he was caught and regretted buying that pot of orchids? But he is a little marquis, so he shouldn't be so stingy! Jiang Wanbai's thoughts turned sharply in her heart, but none of them were good, so she hurriedly urged Tian Er, "Let's go, let's go home." ”
Tian Lao Er also saw Ouyang Jun at this time, plus he thought Jiang Wanbai was waiting for someone just now, so he immediately understood that Jiang Wanbai was waiting for Ouyang Jun, so after hearing Jiang Wanbai's urging, he not only didn't leave, but also pointed at Ouyang Jun and said, "Mother, wait a while, he will be there soon." ”
Of course she knew that he was coming soon, Jiang Wanbai was speechless for a while, and was about to urge Tian Lao Er again, but saw Ouyang Jun flick his horse's head and intercept in front of their ox cart, and now, they couldn't leave if they wanted to.
"Do you still have orchids?" Ouyang Jun said with an anxious face.
"Huh?" Jiang Wanbai didn't expect him to ask about this matter, which was completely different from her imagination.
"Ahh Ouyang Jun's tone was a little bad.
Jiang Wanbai's face sank, "What is the little marquis asking for?" Zeng Taifu's flowers, haven't you already returned them? ”
"Why do you ask so much, you just say whether you still have flowers, just do it." Ouyang Jun wiped the sweat from his face and said impatiently.
"Nope." Jiang Wanbai said lightly, and she didn't have a second answer to him.
"You...... I don't believe it. Ouyang Jun was making the last struggle. If there were no flowers, thinking of his father's big stick, he felt that he was basically loveless.
"If you don't believe it, you can go home with me to see, why am I lying to you." Saying that, Jiang Wanbai said to Tian Lao Er, "Let's go." ”
Jiang Wanbai still has three pots of orchids at home, but they are all hens used to lay eggs, and she won't do such a stupid thing as killing chickens and taking eggs. What's more, she has already promised Old Man Zhang that she will not sell those three pots of flowers.
Ouyang Jun was so rude to Jiang Wanbai, and Tian Lao Er also hated him a little, so when he heard Jiang Wanbai say this, he quickly snorted lightly, drove the ox cart around Ouyang Jun, and went forward.
They left so simply, Ouyang Jun was a little dumbfounded, they left, what should he do, "Don't go." He shouted.
However, Tian Lao Er continued to drive the ox cart to the front as if he hadn't heard it.
Ouyang Jun scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and turned around to look at the capital again, he only felt that the huge city gate was like a monster that chose people to devour, and he was the innocent, righteous, smart and brave who was going to be swallowed...... of people.
How can you be so restrained, as soon as he gritted his teeth, Ouyang Jun urged the horse to catch up with Jiang Wanbai, "I'll go to your house with you to see if you are lying." ”
Jiang Wanbai only felt that this Ouyang Jun was a little too strange, and he wanted to go home with her for the sake of the orchid, "My home is far away from here." Jiang Wanbai said as she looked at Ouyang Jun's expression.
As soon as Ouyang Jun heard about "far", his face was full of joy, "I'm not afraid of far." ”
Jiang Wan's eyes rolled, "I suddenly remembered one thing, Steward Li said that he still had something to tell me, let me go and see him before leaving, I forgot about it." Second, let's go, let's go back to the city. ”
After Jiang Wanbai finished speaking, she said to Ouyang Jun again, "Little Marquis will wait for me for a while, I will go to see Steward Li, and I will be back immediately." ”
Ouyang Jun immediately became anxious, "Don't go to see Steward Li, and don't go back." ”
"Why?" Jiang Wanbai pretended to be puzzled.
"No, it's just not allowed to go back."
At this time, still not telling the truth, Jiang Wan glanced at Ouyang Jun, and then motioned to Tian Lao Er to rush back.
Tian Lao Er also saw the doorway at this time, and hurriedly turned the ox cart and cooperated with Jiang Wanbai.
"If you go back, I'll have you arrested." Ouyang Jun stalked his neck and threatened.
Bluffing, Jiang Wanbai pretended to be scared and said, "I'm so scared, but I'll just take you back like this, I'm afraid that your father will find out, and I'll be even more unlucky." Jiang Wanbai emphasized the question of "your father", and if Ouyang Jun was still so stubborn, she really didn't mind going back to report to Steward Li.
Ouyang Jun was like a punctured ball, out of breath, "What do you have to do to take me to your house?" ”
"Tell me what happened!" Jiang Wan said with a white color.
Ouyang Jun's eyes were a little wandering, "It's not that old man Zeng, I obviously gave him the flowers back, but he actually said that I intended to hide from the world, knew my mistakes and was stubborn, not only wanted to punish me, but also said that he would sue my father."
You said how could there be such a person in the world, I was obviously good for him, and he treated me like this, which was tolerable and unbearable, so in a fit of anger, I smashed all his flowers, and then ......" Speaking of this, Ouyang Jun didn't want to say anything.
It's really good to hit a rake, "And then what, what about Mrs. Zeng?" Jiang Wanbai asked.
"I don't know, anyway, when I left, he was still lying on the ground." Ouyang Jun said a little stupidly.
"So you came to me and wanted to buy flowers from me and use them to compensate Mrs. Zeng?" At this point, Jiang Wanbai understood the whole thing, and also held a tear of sympathy for the Zeng Taifu who had never met before, it was really painful for him to meet an unlucky child like Ouyang Jun.
"Originally, yes, but now that I've changed my mind, I'm going with you. No, I'm going out for a while. Ouyang Jun said happily, obviously, he felt that his idea was very good.
He has long been tired of life at home, his mother nagged him every day, and his father would only say that he was not allowed to be like this, not to be like that, and that old man Zeng looked at him unpleasantly every day, and scolded him either by punishment or scolding.
Jiang Wan gave him a blank look, and went out to wander, just like him, he didn't know how to die when he died, it was really a typical person who didn't know how to be blessed.
I really want to give him two mouths and wake him up. However, Jiang Wanbai just thought about it, if she really beat her, not to mention Ouyang Jun, it is estimated that Ouyang Jun is the father who is afraid every day, and he will not let her go.
His own child, he can teach him any lesson, if outsiders interfere, especially if the outsider is still a person with an unusually humble status in their eyes, hehe......
"If you want to have a good life in the future, I advise you to go back immediately and apologize to Mrs. Zeng, and then use it all whether it is a bitter meat plan or a mourning strategy, and when Mrs. Zeng forgives you, you will go home to find your father again, and do it again like Mrs. Zeng, it is estimated that it will be about the same.
Then, change your ways, listen to your father, and be a good child. Don't worry, your father and mother won't harm you. Jiang Wanbai said her own feelings.
She actually regrets that she didn't listen to her parents when she was young, she always thought that she was so powerful, and she loved to work against her parents, as if only that way could she show how capable she was, but unfortunately, the limelight was gone, and there were a lot of detours.
If she could do it all over again, she would definitely listen to her parents.
Jiang Wanbai said very sincerely, but she didn't listen to it at the beginning, and now Ouyang Jun, a person like Ouyang Jun who wants stars and no one else dares to give the moon, how can he listen to it!
"What is the bitter meat plan, and the mourning plan?" Ouyang Jun was more interested in this kind of trickery.
Dare to love her most of the words in vain, he heard this...... "I don't know." Go back and think for yourself, we'll go first. ”
As soon as Jiang Wanbai's words fell, Tian Lao Er immediately drove the ox cart forward, and this time, Ouyang Jun did not stop them again, which made Jiang Wanbai's heart relax, but it was only for a while, and soon, she was a little anxious.
"Hey, what are you doing with us?" Jiang Wanbai doesn't call Ouyang Jun the little marquis now, and directly uses "hey".
Ouyang Jun was not angry at all, although he felt that what Jiang Wanbai said was very unreasonable, but he felt that Jiang Wanbai would not harm him, "I said, I will go to your house to see if you have lied to me."
In case you have an orchid at home, can't I compensate Mrs. Zeng! Ouyang Jun said confidently.
"Then you can go by yourself, I'll go back to the capital." Jiang Wanbai made a gesture to go back.
"Anyway, I asked Wang Bao where your house is, you go back, I'll go to your house myself." As he spoke, Ouyang Jun pinched the horse's belly, and the white pony swooped out, throwing Jiang Wanbai behind.
This unlucky kid, with this thought, you can't use it in the right place! Jiang Wanbai cursed in a low voice, and hurriedly asked Tian Lao Er to follow Ouyang Jun, if he was really allowed to go to Tian's house like this, he didn't know how much chaos he would make.
Ouyang Jun felt that Jiang Wanbai and them were following, and his face was about to rise to the sky, so he knew that his wisdom was unstoppable.
Ouyang Jun was happy, and the little white horse he was riding was also very happy, and he ran forward with joy, and after a while, this person threw Jiang Wanbai and them far away.
In the end, Ouyang Jun found that Jiang Wanbai and the others really couldn't catch up, so he reluctantly restrained the little white horse, sat there and waited for Jiang Wanbai and them to catch up, and said with a disgusted face: "Why are you so slow?" ”
Jiang Wanbai glared at him and ignored him.
Ouyang Jun didn't feel annoyed, he walked around to the ox cart, "By the way, I haven't eaten at noon, do you have anything to eat?" I want to eat crystal elbows, duck slices, and lotus root with honey sauce. ”
"Nothing, do you look at us like this, like the things you said?" Jiang Wanbai now only hoped that the people of the Hou Mansion would chase Ouyang Jun back as soon as possible.
According to common sense, Ouyang Jun's whereabouts should be easy to investigate, and they are walking so slowly now, they should be caught up before they reach Tianjia Village.
