Chapter Seventy-Four: Love
Rong Jiang packed up the cage and officially embarked on the road north on the second day of the sixth lunar month. In addition to Rongjiang's luggage, the two rooms also gave some gifts for the long room. I packed up a car.
The one in charge of escorting was Luo Liang who brought the two nurses of the Rong family, and he also brought Xiao Lu with him.
And the one who is responsible for personal care is Huiqiu.
Rong Yu took his family members to the gate of Chen Qiao, and saw them go on the official road, so he went back.
Mrs. Liao has been staying at Rong's house for four days, and there is no sign of leaving. The two also made an appointment to go to Daxiangguo Temple to offer incense. The two are as close as sisters.
Liao Qiongying, in order to curry favor with Rong Zheng, asked people to find all kinds of celebrity law posts to send Rong Zheng. Rong Zheng didn't take the same, and let people send it back as it was.
The only thing Rong Zheng is worried about now is that the Ma family made the decision to give her to the Liao family, and she doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of her previous life. However, how he married into the Liao family in the previous life, Rong Zheng still remembers it vividly.
I heard that my father has always been dissatisfied with the Liao family, so when the Liao family just sent a matchmaker to propose marriage, my father refused to do so. Later, after that incident, her reputation in the Bianliang circle was not so good, and her father wanted her to marry far away, and with Ma's pouting, he invited Aunt Ma and Aunt Ma to be matchmakers, and this family affair was brought up again.
Why is the Liao family willing to come to the door again to propose marriage when Rong Zheng's reputation is not so good? Liao Xian is the eldest son of the long house, and it stands to reason that he should pay more attention to the future candidate of the sect woman. This point made Rong Zheng a little confused.
This time, Rong Zheng went to ask Ma for peace, and happened to meet Mrs. Liao in Ma's house, and Liao Qiongying also accompanied Ma to talk.
When Mrs. Liao saw Rong Zheng, she had to boast a few words.
"In the end, it is the children of the Rong family, and the ladies are all Peugeot."
Ma said modestly: "It looks good on the outside, but it is useless on the inside." I look at Sister Ying'er well, her face is full, and she looks blessed. ”
Although Mrs. Liao's compliment to Ma was useful, she felt a little bitter in her heart, shook her head and said, "Now she has been implicated by her family." ”
Rong Zheng sat down and didn't speak, thinking to himself. Liao Qiongying has nothing to worry about now, although Master Liao was implicated in the Liao family, she still married into the He family safely and smoothly. After getting married, Liao Qiongying did not relax for a moment about her mother's affairs, and often came back to interfere in the affairs of the Liao family. Whatever happened after that. Mrs. Liao always discussed with her daughter first, and Liao Qiongying nodded before she did it, and she didn't ask what Rong Zheng meant.
Ma patted the back of Mrs. Liao's hand and smiled: "Don't be afraid, it will get better after a while." ”
Mrs. Liao was a little happier again, and said to Ma's: "Borrow Mrs. Rong's auspicious words." ”
It didn't take long. Du Mu came suddenly.
It's okay now, the house is full of people Rong Zheng hates. She didn't stay long, got up and said goodbye, "Madam, I'll go back to the room first." ”
Ma also wanted Rong Zheng and Liao Qiongying to get along well, so he said: "I heard that Sister Ying also likes calligraphy, and it just so happens that your father's study is idle now, let Sister Ying go to study calligraphy with you." ”
Rong Zheng was reluctant, but in front of a room of people, she still agreed hard.
Liao Qiongying got up with joy on her face and said goodbye to Ma and Mrs. Liao, and nodded to Du Mu before retreating with Rong Zheng.
Liao Qiongying and Rong Zheng walked side by side, having nothing to say.
"How big is Bianliang? I've heard people say it's been an ancient capital for several dynasties. So is the former royal palace still there? Have you ever been? Are there any people living inside? ”
In the face of Liao Qiongying's somewhat noisy questioning, Rong Zheng always seemed a little cold, and only answered ten questions. After a few times, Liao Qiongying also had self-knowledge and knew that Rong Zheng didn't like her, so she also shut up.
The maids and ladies were surrounded, and the two went out of Ma's courtyard, passed through a small courtyard, and passed through a long alley through a hanging flower door, which was Rongjiang's outer study.
Walk in a silent alley. Rong Zheng walked briskly, and Liao Qiongying could barely keep up with her footsteps, and was left behind for a while. Liao Qiongying had no choice but to follow quickly.
Liao Qiongying is the eldest daughter of the Liao family, and her grandmother hurts when she is at home. Mother pets, and the maids and daughters-in-law even hold her to the sky. Now that she is here, she has to see Rong Zheng's face everywhere, but no matter what she thinks of coming forward, Rong Zheng really ignores her, and she refuses to even say polite words. Liao Qiongying's previous pride and self-esteem suddenly felt crushed into mud by Rong Zheng.
If it weren't for the fact that I thought that my father would have to rely on the support of the Rong family in the future. Where is she willing to grovel so much.
"Miss Rongsan, forget it. I suddenly felt a little headache, so I didn't go. ”
Rong Zheng walked a few steps ahead, Liao Qiongying's voice was not small, she heard it clearly, nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go back too." "Turn around and leave.
As soon as he turned around, he suddenly heard a man behind him say, "Sister, why are you here, where are you going?" ”
The voice was somewhat familiar, and Rong Zheng couldn't help but glance back. saw Rong Kai, Liao Xian and Du Hong coming together.
They are all people who don't want to see, but Rong Zheng can't avoid them.
"Brother Xian!" Liao Qiongying's face had two smiles.
Liao Xian glanced at Rong Zheng with both eyes, but saw that Rong Zheng was gorgeously dressed and looked good. When I first met him in Jiayin Hall, I was very impressed in my heart, and now such a close contact made Liao Xian's heart ecstatic. Originally, I made an appointment with Du Hong and Rong Kai to go out for a drink, but I never thought that I would meet a beautiful woman here.
Rong Zheng obviously felt that Liao Xian's gaze at her was a little obscene, she felt uncomfortable, and left with the maid on her back.
That Liao Xian's gaze became more and more unrestrained, and he boldly looked at Rong Zheng's figure, until her figure disappeared at the mouth of the alley, and she was still a little stunned.
Liao Xian's mind fell on Liao Qiongying's eyes, and she immediately understood that this stupid brother had fallen in love with the self-respecting and noble Miss Rong San, so she couldn't help pouting, and she didn't care about saving face for him in front of Rong Kai and Du Hong, and scolded: "This is in the guest, you also give me a little restraint." Don't let your mother worry about it. ”
Liao Xian hurriedly said: "I know, don't worry about my sister." ”
Liao Qiongying wanted to say something, but saw Du Hong secretly pull down Liao Xian's clothes. Liao Xiancai and Liao Qiongying said: "Sister, let's go now." ”
Liao Qiongying nodded.
The three of them walked out of the alley and passed through the Hanging Flower Gate.
Rong Zheng's beautiful face still lingered in Liao Xian's mind.
Du Hong's mind is more complicated. Only Rong Kai was completely in the style of the master, and said to Liao Xian: "The wine in Huixianlou is good and magnificent, let's go to Huixianlou to drink today." ”
Du Hong still had some thoughts on drinking at the moment, so he didn't want to go, and made an excuse and said, "I have to go back to Wenshu." I won't go. ”
Rong Kai came over and hooked his shoulder and said, "What kind of book to read, I have a treat today, go to the Xianlou, you still don't give face." Cousin. It's a bit of a stretch. ”
Liao Xian also came over and said to Du Hong: "Yan Sheng, let's have fun together." ”
Du Hong was dragged by the two to Huixian Tower.
Rong Kai's purse is bulging, and he is the most generous and bold. asked for the best private room, ordered the most expensive dishes at a great price, and asked for two stunning singing songs.
Du Hong kept his head down. There are not many words. only poured wine into the stomach one after another, and after three or five glasses, Rong Kai took the wine glass.
"If you get drunk and your aunt blames you, I don't care. I asked you to come, but you didn't come, why did you drink it now? ”
Du Hong took the wine jug and poured wine into the wine glasses in front of Liao Xian and Rong Kai.
"Come, drink, drink!" Du Hong's hand holding the wine glass trembled a little. Drinks poured out, some on the table. Some spilled onto clothes.
Seeing Du Hong like this, Rong Kai frowned and said, "Look at you, what you look like." Isn't it just a woman, as for this? ”
Liao Xian, who was on the side, heard that there was a play, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Yansheng, is there a story?" ”
Rong Kai said all the things about Du Hong in one go.
"Brother Liao just arrived, I don't know. My cousin is bitter. ”
"Oh, what's the bitter method?" Liao Xian looked like he was listening.
Du Hong didn't have much alcohol, so he suddenly poured a few glasses of wine and couldn't help but feel a little dizzy, and he heard Rong Kai say in a trance in his ears: "My cousin came to study in our school's school six years ago. My third sister and I grew up together. There is a poem that doesn't say, 'Lang rode a bamboo horse and went around the bed to make green plums', which is about the situation of my cousin and third sister. The cousin has the blue eyes of the second uncle, and everyone thinks that the cousin and the third sister are a pair of golden boys and girls. I didn't know that my aunt asked me to go to the second uncle to propose marriage, but I never thought that the second uncle refused this family business. Brother Liao. Why do you say that? My cousin is not worthy of character, or is he not worthy of learning? ”
Liao Xian's mind was like a paste, and it had long been sticky, where could he hear what Rong Kai asked clearly, and he also poured wine with a wine glass.
Now it's okay, Rong Kai persuaded one. The other one drank again.
This time the wine was drunk to the end, except for Rong Kai, Du Hong and Liao Xian were all drunk. It took a lot of effort for Rong Kai to send the two home.
Seeing Du Hong coming back full of alcohol, Si Qin couldn't help frowning and said, "Why did Uncle drink like this." If my wife knew, it would be another reprimand. ”
Du's mother cherishes her son, even if she reprimands, she often reprimands her for being inconsiderate.
Si Qin hurriedly asked people to cook a bowl of decanting soup.
Du Hong fell asleep with his head covered until Si Qin brought the sobering soup, Du Hong ate half a bowl, and then his stomach couldn't stand it, so he vomited Si Qin's whole body.
Si Qin didn't have time to clean up, and he had to take care of Du Hong.
With this vomit, people seem to be much more awake. When Si Qin changed his clothes and came in to serve, he saw Du Hong taking a book and leaning on the side of the bed to read.
Si Qin shook his head and said, "Don't work hard today, let's rest early." I have to go to school tomorrow. Can't stay up late. ”
Du Hong's eyes never took his eyes off the book, and he said slowly: "If you don't work, there will be no way out, and if you don't have a way out, you will be looked down upon." What other way can people like us have besides hard work? ”
Si Qin was a little sad when he heard this, stepped forward to light up the candle flame a little, and said with concern: "But you have to take care of your body, there are still some days before you end." ”
Perhaps because of something in his heart, Du Hong could not study without distractions as usual. He looked at the words on the page, but his thoughts were back to the scene when he saw Rong Zheng in the alley during the day.
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had seen her, and she was a few more beautiful than he remembered, like a flower blooming in spring, blooming so well, just in time. He had thought about plucking the flower from the branch, but it turned out to be a big blow to him.
Her eyes have long lost the affection for him in the past, and there is only alienation and indifference.
The friendship she had been with over the years, could she really erase it in her heart, and there was no nostalgia left at all? Or is she a loversome person herself?
Thinking of this, Du Hong was a little annoyed, he had been infatuated with her, and in the end he just went with the flow. He wanted to see what kind of rich family she would marry in the future, he clenched his fists, and secretly decided that one day he would make her regret it and make Rong Jiang regret it.
"Uncle! Uncle! Si Qin shouted several times on the side, and Du Hong came back to his senses, turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Si Qin said: "What does the uncle think." ”
"It's fine."
Si Qin took a fan and gently fanned Du Hong.
Even though it was night, it was still a little muggy. Du Hong was in an irritable mood, and he threw the book away. He lay down on his back.
Siqin was still fanning him. Du Hong saw Si Qin standing by the bed, and the candle flame reflected half of her face, which added a bit of gentleness and charm to her not very outstanding appearance. I smelled the faint fragrance wafting from her body, and I couldn't help but pay attention to the inconspicuous maid in front of me.
Siqin looks a little good, and combs his beard. The blue dress made her skin fairer. He looked closely, and when Si Qin's side face was sideways, her slightly raised chin was very similar to hers. Even the nose looks similar.
As if he was enchanted, Du Hong couldn't help but reach out to Si Qin's nose and finally touch his chin.
Si Qin was caught off guard, the fan fell to the ground, and he called out in surprise: "Master, you are ......"
Later, as soon as Du Hong exerted his strength, he dragged Siqin forward, causing her whole body to fall to her body. In his arms, where did he still have the heart to think about anything else, one hand tightly clasped her waist, and the other hand leaned into her clothes.
Siqin immediately understood. When she was sent by Du's mother to serve Du Hong closely, she understood Du's mother's intentions. She also knows the path she has to take in the future.
At this moment, her face seemed to be burning, her heart was pounding, and her breathing was flustered. Shy and afraid, his body even trembled.
Until Du Hong pressed her under him, a little rusty and tough entered her body. Si Qin was so painful that she almost shed tears, she looked at the shaking tent with some weakness, and finally she clearly heard the dull "Ah Zheng" overflowing from Du Hong's mouth! She turned her face away, and tears rolled silently into the pile of flowers. (To be continued.) )
