Chapter 18: A Near-Miss

On the surface, Beidou is very arrogant, but in fact, he is the most careful, and the most important thing is that Xie Jiang treated Wang Jiu's injuries, and this girl has beaten him on the side. If you want to confirm whether the robber Nine Sons is the privy envoy Wang Jinxiu or not, or whether she is the Jinxiu Son who posted the post, Mama Han can only let Beidou go. No wonder she thinks too much, the clan is involved in the whole body, Xie Jiang is Xie Huaijin's beloved daughter, and there is not only the Xie family in Wuyi Lane, but also the Guanjin Cui family behind her, in other words, Han Mama wants to find out if the privy envoy is eyeing the Xie family and the Cui family.

Cui Shi glanced at Beidou, nodded and said, "The soft sedan chair is outside the yard, help your lady to go up."

The two of them sat in a soft sedan chair and went straight to the gate.

As soon as the sedan chair stopped, Mama Cao reached out to help Cui's up: "Madam, is there anything wrong?" ”

"It's alright, A-Jiang? was bitten by an insect" Cui Shi squinted his eyes, for the eldest woman in charge, it is also common to punish slaves, Xie Jiang even has injuries under his ears? It's impossible to slap the insect with such a big force, let alone do it yourself, but now I'm going to go to the house to celebrate my birthday, and I don't have time to get to the bottom of it, Cui's plans to come back and check again.

The two men got into the carriage.

Wang Fu glanced at Xie Jiang, sneered and said, "Grind, a large group of people are waiting for you, it's embarrassing."

Xie Jiang was afraid that if he opened his mouth, the powder on his face would fall down, so when he got into the car, he chose a seat by the window and sat down, lowering his head without making a sound. Ignore it, don't even glance here, Wang Fu raised his eyebrows, and pointed at Xie Jiang: "Isn't there a poster..."

"Ah Zhi..."Cui Shi shouted Wang Fu in a deep voice, and said with a face, "Ah Jiang's face hurts, don't make trouble"

Wang Fu sat back stupidly.

went to the Wang family to celebrate his birthday, Cui's only brought Mama Cao and the personal maids Marigold and Wei Zi, here Xie Jiang brought Beidou, seeing that Cui's had no other instructions, Mama Cao led a few girls into the carriage behind. As soon as the whip sounded, the coachman shouted: "Get up... The two carriages drove out of the alley.

The curtain swayed leisurely, and the outside of the car gradually became lively.

Seeing the two villains, one muttering and sulking, and the other hanging his head to study the patterns on the sleeves, Cui Shi was secretly amused, coughed, and said: "Ah Zhi, when you get to the place later, let Ah Jiang follow you."

Glancing at Xie Jiang, Wang Fu pouted and said, "Don't pay attention to me since the morning, who wants to play with her" The tone was a little aggrieved.

After a while, I went to the palace to have a companion, no one knew it, and I couldn't follow Cui's family, Xie Jiang raised his head and said softly: "Sister Ah Zhi, I am..."

This is even more aggrieved than Wang Fu.

Cui Shi couldn't help but cover his mouth for a while, "card" laughed, Wang Fu was stunned for a long time, moved over to be next to Xie Jiang, sighed: "Okay, it's me who is wrong, if you don't speak, don't speak" twisted his eyebrows and thought about it, pulled Xie Jiang's sleeve and told him, "Wait a while, you follow me, you know, don't run around"

Needless to say, Xie Jiang won't run around, go to Wang's house, one is to figure out why the splendid son gave him a post, and the other is to find out why the splendid son gave him a post... Of course, you have to think of ways to prove that this person has a habit of breaking sleeves, so that Wang Fu can put out his thoughts.

The ancestral house of the Wang family is in the east of the city, looking at it from a distance, the high pavilion eaves are connected with the pavilions and rockeries, which almost occupy half of the place in the east city, so the sixth and seventh masters of the Wang family who are in charge of the shop grange are often called Wang Bancheng secretly. The carriage stopped just after the entrance of Dongjiekou, and Mama Cao said: "Madam, there are too many carriages in front of me, and I can't pass it."

The old house of the Wang family is at the end of East Street, and it is usually on the main road where four or five carriages can be paralleled.

Cui Shi frowned and commanded in a low voice, "What's going on?" Go take a look at the side door, forget it... Presumably several doors are blocked, tell the servant to turn around and go to the back door."

Originally, a few people came late, and if they were delayed any longer, they would definitely miss the time to celebrate their birthday. If others are okay, it's just that Cui's grandson, as Mrs. Wang's grandson, is not there to celebrate her birthday, and outsiders don't know what they will say. After looking around left and right, Mama Cao was embarrassed: "Madam, the back is blocked, I'm afraid I can't turn my head" The two cars came over for only half a moment, and there were already people shouting behind the horses and squeezing a piece, not to mention turning around, I couldn't even move.

Cui Shi has no choice.

Wang Fu squinted at Xie Jiang and muttered: "It's all your mistake, in previous years, I counted the earliest where Ah Niang and I arrived, wait a minute, how can Aunt Qi arrange people?"

"Ah Zhi..."Cui Shi sank his face and reprimanded in a low voice, "It's too late, how can you blame Ah Jiang"

The grandmother's birthday and the absence of the grandson are not just a matter of the long-tongued woman arranging two sentences, but a major event of disrespecting the elders.

After rolling his eyes a few times, Xie Jiang lifted the curtain and shouted softly: "Mama" took out the splendid post from her sleeve and handed it over, "Try it, can you use this to open a way"

"Use this?" Looking at the carriage on the left and right, Mama Cao couldn't wait to jump her feet, where could she take care of anything else at this time, took the post in one fell swoop, and said loudly: "The guests invited by the splendid prince, can you let go?" ”

There was a sudden silence all around.

Close to the Wang family is a four-wheeled two-horse car, Mama Cao shouted loudly, the two people in the car heard most clearly, the old woman lifted the curtain, carefully looked at the post in Mama Cao's hand, and then turned her face and ordered the guard: "Idea to the side to let go"

The young woman was puzzled: "Wang Jiajiulang is just a privy envoy, and the husband is a doctor, what are you afraid of him doing?" ”

"You know what?" The old woman stared at the young woman with straight eyes, and her tone was full of disdain and impatience, "I only know which Ji person I am worried about all day long, and I don't know at all..." Forget it, I don't know how the Zhao family taught the lady" Seeing the young woman's stupid face, the old woman was too lazy to say any further, and snorted the car wall and instructed the entourage, "Hurry up, if others don't let me, hang up my Gaoyang family's family"

Every clan has a sign that shows its noble status, and a person with a low status must avoid it when he sees it.

"Old lady, Wang Qiye bought rare birds and beasts from thousands of miles away, and now he is busy making things in the house" paused, and lowered his voice, "Even if you hang up the family signs, these people let them, and the seventh master's subordinates... I'm afraid I won't let it", the seventh master's subordinates are used to being arrogant, it is usual, and others make way for them, not to mention that they are busy transporting birthday gifts to the mansion.

Old Madam Gaoyang snorted coldly: "Others are afraid of him, how can the people of my Gaoyang family be afraid of him?" Tell the two of them to come over and have a look, if you don't want to..."After a pause, a hint of mockery suddenly appeared on her wrinkled face, "The old woman will turn around and go home"

From here to the gate of the royal family, one side is a high wall that extends to the entrance of the street, and on the other side there is a wine shop near the entrance of the street, the restaurant is three stories high, and the wooden door at the bottom is closed, and it has been closed.

In the private room on the second floor, several windows were open, and Yuan Shan glanced out the window, and said in a deep voice: "Childe, Gongzi's family is also blocked here, and the slave woman took the master's post to make way."

Wang Jiugang brought the tea to drink, and when he heard the words, he put down the cup and said, "Why did you come so late, did anyone let you?" ”

Yuanshan looked downstairs carefully, and said: "It seems that the old lady of the Gaoyang family wants to let it, and there are people from other families who move the carriage" said this, glanced at the gate of the palace, and summed up the sentence "The beasts brought by the seventh master have not been unloaded yet, and they can't get by"

Seeing that the sun is already noon, everyone will be seated after the birthday, there are so many guests blocked outside the house gate, not only does it seem that the Wang family is not entertained properly, but more importantly, the great-grandfather of Mrs. Wang is Pingyang Hou Cao Shen, the mother's family is illustrious, and the husband's family is as expensive as Wang Hou, the old lady's personality is not only hard, but also very irritable.

Remembering that as soon as the old lady got on fire, she would lift the table and smash the bench, and let a junior kneel in the ancestral hall, Wang Jiu raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and instructed Yuanshan to "call Tie Jian and Feng Guan to go..." Help, hurry up and get the way out" There was a slight pause behind the word, which seemed to be a little hesitant to others, but Wang Jiu said it from his mouth... It has the meaning that you can do whatever it takes.

Yuan Shan bowed his head and bowed, and said solemnly: "Yes, the servant will call Tie Sui to escort the two past" As soon as the words fell, he turned around and walked out of the private room.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Jiu asked in a deep voice, "Who is outside the door?" As he spoke, the teapot in his hand tilted, and the bright tea soup poured into the cup, and the water vapor wrapped around the man's white jade-like cheeks, as if there was a bit of obscurity.

Someone outside the door replied in a deep voice: "Servant Dongcheng, does the son have any orders?" ”

"Bring the son-in-law's family into the house" Wang Jiu took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "Go through the wine shop, don't alarm others"

This wine shop, on the surface, is the property of a wealthy businessman surnamed Chen, but in fact the owner is Wang Jiu, and the backyard of the wine shop is separated by a wall from the Wang family's old house, and there is a small door in the corner.

"Yes" After listening to no more noise in the room, Dongcheng turned and went downstairs.

Mama Cao raised the post and shouted twice, and the carriages around her gradually moved, but they were originally crowded tightly, and the gate was blocked, so it was obviously extremely difficult to drive the carriage over, Xie Jiang lifted the curtain to look outside, and said softly: "Auntie, why don't we get out of the car and squeeze over"

The ladies of the family squeezed around among the groom servants who were driving the car, not to mention the loss of face, it was very inconvenient to just have a wide robe with wide sleeves and a skirt that mopped the floor, Cui wiped the fine sweat on the tip of his nose and did not answer.

Dongcheng flashed to the carriage, and without waiting for Mama Cao to ask, he said in a low voice: "The prince asked the servant to lead the lady into the house, please get the lady off."

This person was dressed in a short fight, with a bronze finch card the size of half a palm hanging on his waist, obviously which master's side was the escort, Mama Cao couldn't help but lower her voice and asked: "Dare to ask... Which son is it? ”p; Nalan would like to thank all the book friends for their support and thank you very much
