Chapter 226: Reflection

Cen Erniang and his entourage ignored Master An's retention, moved out of An's house collectively, drove a carriage in the rain on the cold and damp street for an hour, and finally stopped in the southern city where there were many travelers, and stayed in the Yunlai Inn.

The environment of Yunlai Inn is quiet, the decoration is elegant, the chef has good skills, there are also the Qing Ling who plays and sings very well and the storyteller who is very eloquent in the building, it is the place where many dignitaries and nobles of Qingzhou Mansion and the rich squire love to go when they feast guests.

It was divided into a plebeian and a noble district. The aristocratic district is naturally a place for dignitaries and wealthy squires to spend their time, and special posts are required to enter.

Cen Erniang and a few of them lived in a civilian area.

Although the environment in the civilian area is a little worse, the guests come and go like a cloud, and the information is very well-informed. The Cen family has no in-laws and acquaintances in Qingzhou Mansion, and the only familiar An family has just collapsed, so Cen Erniang has to squat in the inn and listen to what everyone says about the girls in the city.

The civilian area is also a treasure place for many large families to go to the theater and drink tea and enjoy the mountains.

This is still An Sanshao's sue sΓΉ Cen Erniang.

The day before yesterday, he was afraid that Cen Erniang would be bored in Anfu, so he specially took her out to enjoy the scenery in the streets, and invited Cen Erniang to taste the delicious food of Yunlai Inn.

Cen Erniang thought back to this, and regretted that she was so rough in Anfu before. treated An Sanshao rudely. It was the Huo family and the Qi family who slandered her, and they had nothing to do with An Sanshao.

She shouldn't have been so angry that she overturned a boatload of people with a stick so much that she lost her words and hurt him.

Cen Erniang gritted her teeth with hatred while regretting: However, An Sanshao is not completely innocent.

If it weren't for his brain cramps, he would have forced the An family to go to the Cen family to propose marriage. What kind of male wife do you want to marry her, and she also plays the trick of crying, making trouble, and hanging herself. It will not make the elders of the An family hate her deeply.

Huo's was even more ridiculous, and he actually gave her a "male fox. Raccoon dog. Fine"!

Now that I think about it, I still feel angry!

Cen Erniang drank two cups of tea violently to dissipate her anger, thinking that after a while, when the turmoil of marrying a male wife passed, her anger would disappear. Write another letter of apology to An Sanshao.

Well, I have to send some small gifts to settle down and make amends.

How can I say that the Huo family and the Qi family are both elders, she shouldn't talk to them like that.

Although the Huo family and the Qi family are hateful, they are also a loving heart. And even if Master An and Third Master An were forced by An Sanshao so much, their hearts were full of anger, and they didn't get angry with her. She has always been courteous and warmly caring.

For this point, she should also apologize to Master An and Third Master An.

But. This apologizes to the An family and gives gifts, and it needs to be in the name of her parents. Only by being so solemn can we highlight our sincerity.

Cen Erniang sat alone in the corner of the theater hall on the first floor of the Yunlai Inn, poured a belly of tea, and calmed down her impatience after sorting out her thoughts. Prick up her ears and listen to the small talk of the servants of the big families around her, and try to gather useful information for her.

Most of those servants were bragging or complaining about the master's house, or talking about winning and losing in horse hanging, pushing pai gow, or even huddled together. Meaning. The top girl in the dark alleys of the flower buildings in the lewd city......

They seldom talk about the smallness of their master's house. Sister. First, because these rough servants rarely have contact with the unmarried girls of the master's family, and second, they have all been deliberately told by the master's family not to talk about the ladies outside, which has ruined the reputation of their own girls.

Cen Erniang sat down for a while, listening to the foul words and gossip in her ears, and the sour water in her stomach was surging, and she was very sick to her stomach.

If it weren't for the fact that she used the silver to lure those domestic servants and trap them, she would have gotten some chicken-like information.

This half day has been wasted.

She was especially glad that she also sent Ning Laoqi and Yumo and a few attendants to go out and walk the streets. Deliberately approached the concierge of those large families, and quietly inquired about the appearance, conduct, and talents of the girls in those families.

When dusk came, Cen Erniang called the shopkeeper and gave him a silver ingot. Let him go to the back kitchen and ask the cook to buy a sumptuous banquet and send it to the private room upstairs, and wait for Yumo to come back and treat them.

At three o'clock, Yumo and other talents returned one after another.

They were out for a long time, tired and hungry, and Cen Erniang ran out of food with them. After they were full of wine and food, they asked them what they had heard.

Ning Laoqi was the first to frown and speak: "Second Shao, we went out to more than a dozen families, and a lot of silver was stuffed out, but the result was not very ideal. ”

"I don't know if it's our luck, I asked more than a dozen large families in the vicinity, and half of the families have no unmarried daughters of school age. The rest of the small part, those girls' plain zhΓ¬ are not very good, I don't think they are worthy of our adults. ”

Cen Erniang sighed, "I also know that for a while, we are not familiar with each other, so it is difficult to inquire, and it is inconvenient to find a suitable partner......"

Yumo is more than a round older than Cen Erniang, he has been following Cen Erniang, taking Cen Erniang as his junior, Ning Laoqi and the few guards left by the sixth prince are not good to ask Cen Erniang why she left the An family in anger, for fear of frowning Cen Erniang's moldy head.

You don't need such a good help, come out and ask around outside, isn't it nonsense.

Only he dared to ask Cen Erniang: "Second Shao, why don't we let An Jia come forward, we have to come out by myself?" The information inquired in this way is difficult to distinguish between true and false, and it is not comprehensive. If one is not careful, he will lead the wrong line to Libai and find a loser daughter-in-law. Wouldn't it hurt him for the rest of his life! ”

"I had a falling out with the An family." Cen Erniang blushed slightly and said, "I can't say the reason for this." You just have to remember that you are not allowed to go to the house and post people's cold faces. Let's work hard for another ten days, if there is no result after ten days, we will turn around and go to Lin'an County to find Uncle Jing and Aunt Jing for help. ”

"That's fine." Ning Laoqi said: "Today. We've walked half of the south of the city, and tomorrow we'll finish the south of the city. Then go to the east, north and west of the city. ”

"Let's be faster, and we will probably be able to ask all the big families in the entire Qingzhou Mansion in ten days. I don't believe it, I can't find a few girls worthy of adults! ”

"That's right!" Yumo also excitedly said: "Where there is a will, there is a way." ”

After shouting the inspirational quote, he was a little annoyed: "It's just that we can find someone, how can we make those girls and their elders willing to marry them to Libai?" Ershao, you said that time is pressing, this ......"

"I'll talk about that later, let's find someone first." Cen Erniang was so worried that her head was big: "After I find someone, I'll find a way." Come on the same. ”

Ning Laoqi saw Cen Erniang's sad face, and smiled and comforted her: "Second Shao, don't worry." The boat is naturally straight when it reaches the bridge, and you can't eat a big fat man in one breath. Remember, you are not alone, and we will do our best to help you. ”

"Yes, Ershao." Yumo and the others shouted in unison.

Cen Erniang smiled with relief and emotion: "Thank you." You're all tired today, so go back to your room and rest. ”

After Ning Laoqi said goodbye to Cen Erniang, he yawned and left.

Cen Erniang was in a heavy mood and did not feel sleepy. Stroll out of the inn alone and go outside to the night market.

She was very upset in her heart, and from time to time An Sanshao's sad and ruthless face when he smashed the chair flashed in her mind, as well as his tearful tiger eyes that wanted to speak, which made Cen Erniang feel that she owed him.

She was inexplicably flustered, always thinking that something was going to happen. I was a little worried about An Sanshao, and planned to go out for a walk first, wait for a while until it was late at night, and then visit An's house at night to see how he was doing. (To be continued.) )
