072: Big cousin
"Who are you? Why are you blocking my young lady's way? ”
Seeing that there was a man blocking their way, Xiangyue immediately stepped forward and protected Shen Niannian behind her, her voice fierce.
Although both of them are dressed up as showmen, the border folk customs are fierce, and Xiucai naturally can't really be weak scholars.
If someone deliberately pretends to be a showman and wants to be unfavorable to Miss Shen, then the two of them will have to protect Miss Shen to the death.
Seeing Xiangyue's defensiveness, Zhang Xiucai and Liu Ziyue suddenly flashed a little embarrassed on their faces.
"This little girl misunderstood, there is no surprise to your young lady's heart, but I just saw this silk handkerchief, and came forward to ask if it is this young lady's thing, if so, it should also be returned to the original owner."
Zhang Xiucai's eyes rolled, and he smiled gently.
Vanilla quietly took the change in the demeanor on this person's face into her eyes, and couldn't help but pout.
These poor talents really do everything, they obviously want to talk to Miss Shen, and they come up with such an excuse, which is really stupid.
These pick-up tricks have long been used badly!
Hearing the whispered complaint of the vanilla girl, Shen Ansu couldn't help but smile, even if he saw Liu Ziyue, he was not as surprised as he was just now.
After all, this kid often lives in the county seat, and if he didn't have the silver taels in his hand, he would never go back to Tuozi Village.
And now that these two are blocking her way, how can she not see what these two people are hiding?
The corners of her mouth hooked up a hint of mockery, she was curious, if this show knew that she was an ugly monster who ruined half of her face, what kind of ugly posture would she show?
It's just that she doesn't want to waste time on this kind of person, so she just said indifferently when she looked at the familiar silk handkerchief in Xiucai's hand. "It's not mine, Childe has found the wrong person."
As he spoke, he didn't pay attention to the stunned faces of Zhang Xiucai and Liu Ziyue, and said lightly to Xiangyue, "Let's go, it's not far away." ”
Xiangyue Vanilla hurriedly answered and hurriedly followed her. Before leaving, he didn't forget to snort heavily.
This kind of goods even wants to dig the corner of the prince's wall. When you go back, let the prince teach you a lesson again!
Therefore, without waiting for Zhang Xiucai and the two to come back to their senses. Shen Niannian, the master and servant, had already reached ten meters away.
Seeing this, Liu Ziyue couldn't help but say, "Strange, how do I feel that girl's voice is very familiar." ”
Zhang Xiucai was disgraced in front of the public, and he only felt that the surroundings were all watching his jokes.
Iron blushed. Holding the handkerchief tightly in his hand, he looked in the direction they were leaving. With a strong look of unwillingness, he turned around and left angrily.
And Liu Ziyue didn't care about where he heard the girl's voice, and immediately chased after Zhang Xiucai.
This stupid boy is his meal ticket during this time, and he can't lose it!
Leave the two behind. Shen Niannian walked directly to the stall set up by Huaixi.
Dressed in a linen-colored frozen jacket, a pair of wool warm shoes with the characteristics of the city, Huaixi's face was deliberately smeared with some pot bottom ash. Covering the original beautiful color, it's just a pair of beautiful eyes that are exposed. But it looks bright.
Waixi's stall business seems to be quite good, and most of the people in front of the stall are some attentive men.
Shen Niannian stepped forward, and Xiangyue and the two of them squeezed out of the way for the courteous men gathered in front of the stall with great eyes.
"Hey, why are you two girls coming to buy my fried rice today?" Seeing that it was Xiangyue, Huaixi was very familiar with them, and smiled enthusiastically.
Xiangyue smiled and said, "Sister Huaixi, it's our girl who wants to come over to buy your fried rice!" ”
As she spoke, she quietly pointed to the woman who was standing in front of the stall, curiously looking at various types of fried rice, and winked mischievously at her.
"Your girl? This young lady is ......" Huaixi was stunned for a moment, holding a handkerchief in his hand, and looked towards Shen Niannian while wiping his hands, with a look of hesitation on his face.
She remembers, there shouldn't be any girls in King Ling's mansion, right?
Of course, the women who were sent to the West Courtyard were directly ignored by her.
"Sister Huaixi, it's me......"
Shen Niannian was also surprised, but she didn't expect that Xiangyue actually recognized Huaixi, and when she saw Huaixi looking towards her, she smiled and spoke.
Although she was still covering her face, as soon as she spoke, Wisey recognized who she was.
Suddenly, his eyes widened, and he was a little incredulous, "You...... Sister Shen? ”
"It's me, Sister Huaixi, I didn't expect there to be so many kinds of fried rice in your stall, I can buy more and try it." As she spoke, she pointed to a few of them and said with a smile, "Sister Huaixi, I'll take care of your business today, and give each of these kinds to my sister a catty." ”
Although Huaixi was surprised that her identity had changed suddenly overnight, when she heard this, she put this question aside for the time being, and gave her several different flavors of fried rice.
Shen Niannian handed over the silver, and she didn't accept it politely directly.
"Sister Shen, you wait here for a while, I'll put the stall away first, let's go back and have a good chat first." Wisey put the money in his money bag and began to clean up the stall.
Shen Niannian hurriedly stopped him when he saw it, and said with a smile, "Sister Huaixi, how can I delay your business?" Even if we sisters want to have a good chat, we have to sell these fried rice first, right? Come, I'll help you too. ”
Saying that, Shen Niannian didn't care if the clothes on her body would get dirty, so she squeezed directly to her side and began to help weigh the fried rice.
Seeing that she really intended to help, Huaixi was stunned, then laughed, and did not politely tell her to do something.
Xiangyue and the others saw that their masters had gone to help, so naturally they would not be idle, and they hurried over to help.
In the few months that Shen Niannian has stayed in Tuozi Village, she has completely changed from a pampered lady to a peasant girl who does everything herself.
So it's naturally not difficult to help sell fried rice.
Although some people were curious to see what she looked like under the mask, the half of her ruined face that was deliberately exposed by Shen Niannian was so frightened that she hurriedly fled with her own fried rice.
Shen Niannian covered his mouth and laughed secretly, and when Huaixi saw this, he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.
Saying that the girl is really big-hearted, what woman doesn't care about her own face? But she's fine. I even thought of using that face to scare away those courteous men.
However, this did not prevent Huaixi from having a much better impression of Shen Niannian.
With the help of their master and servant, this fried rice will soon be sold out.
Waisey packed up the rest of his things, and it was already noon, and it was almost time for dinner.
They first went to the next street to buy a few pieces of meat, and then took their things back to the small courtyard together.
Entering this courtyard again, Shen Niannian felt a little complicated in his heart.
When he was first taken away by Ling Moyuan. She thought she would never come back. Thinking of He's arrogant appearance that day, her eyes were slightly cold, her advantage was not so easy to take advantage of!
"I'll get you something to eat first. It's definitely not as good as what you eat now, so don't dislike it. After Wai Xi put his things away, he hurriedly went to the kitchen to wash vegetables and cook.
Shen Niannian stopped her and glanced at Xiangyue. The two maids nodded immediately and snatched all the meat and vegetables from Waixi's hands. He said with a smile, "Miss, madam, the slaves and maids will go down to cook for you first." Please wait a moment. ”
Huaixi couldn't grab it, so he had no choice but to go with the two of them.
However, Shen Niannian asked with some curiosity, "Strange." Why did Xiangyue's girl call Sister Huaixi Madame? ”
"You don't know yet?" Huaixi was stunned, and suddenly remembered what Shen Niannian asked about her husband that day. There was still a little smile on his face, but it gradually faded.
"Sister Waixi?" Seeing that Huaixi seemed to be in a daze, Shen Niannian couldn't help but scream.
Wai Xi suddenly came back to his senses and laughed awkwardly, "I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered something just now." ”
Shen Niannian waved his hand indifferently and said with a smile, "It's okay." ”
Upon entering the courtyard, the veil from her face was removed.
Waihi looked at her with clear eyes, not like the spy.
Then he remembered the respect that Xiangyue and the others had for Shen Niannian, although they were curious about what this woman was about, but they didn't ask rashly.
After all, she and Shen Niannian are not too familiar with each other, but at first they looked at her living as a lonely woman, which was a little pitiful, but who would have thought that this woman would have something to do with her husband.
didn't rush to answer Shen Niannian's question, Huaixi smiled to himself and asked, "By the way, you said that you wanted to ask my husband for help that day, Sister Shen, do you still need it now?" ”
This Shen sister has now lived under the nose of the prince, if there is really any problem, how can she still swagger around with the two maids?
Shen Niannian blinked, and then remembered that when she asked Huaixi for help that day, her face seemed to be a little wrong, and even when she knocked on the door the next day, she didn't pay attention to it, but now...... But he took the initiative to talk about it.
Thinking about it like this, the original meaning of being a little close faded a little, but he just hooked his lips and said, "No need, thanks to the blessing of the prince, I have already recognized my cousin." ”
When Huaixi heard this, his eyes widened suddenly, he was a little surprised, and suddenly said eagerly, "The cousin you are talking about is that Du Gongzi?" ”
Shen Niannian nodded, seeing Huaixi's appearance, she thought that she wanted to help herself, but she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and she had the idea of leaving.
But the next moment, what Wai Xi said shocked her.
"Sister Shen...... The Du Gongzi you are talking about, but my husband......"
Waishi was still in a trance.
I really don't understand, why did my husband clearly say that his only cousin should have died of illness, but how did he come out with a Shen sister, who is also his cousin?
Wait a minute...... This Shen girl, isn't her surname Shen?
Huaixi was dizzy by herself, and she didn't even see Shen Niannian's eyes changing a few times when she looked at her.
"Xiangyue's name is Sister Huaixi, your wife...... In other words, Sister Huaixi is actually the wife of her eldest cousin? ”
Shen Niannian came to this conclusion with some surprise.
Huaixi is indeed very capable, and her temperament is also very good, she may set up a stall outside, just to earn that little hard-earned money, you can see that this Huaixi sister's background is not high.
It's not that she has the opinion of the family and looks down on Wise.
But with the identity of her eldest cousin Du Shengnian, it is impossible for her aunt and uncle-in-law to let him marry a woman from an ordinary family!
What's more, doesn't the eldest cousin have a wife? She still remembers that the eldest cousin and his wife are very loving and harmonious......
Shen Niannian thought wildly, but looking at Huaixi's appearance, he didn't look like a master who would be a concubine.
What the hell is going on?
For a while, the atmosphere in the room was a little condensed.
Both of them were overwhelmed by their own messy thoughts.
It wasn't until there was a sudden knock on the door that the two of them woke up, and they all looked towards the door.
I saw Du Shengnian dressed in military uniform, standing outside the house, walking in with his feet raised with a smile on his face, "Yo, why haven't I introduced you yet, you already know each other?" ”
"Husband, are you back? Have you ever eaten? ”
When Huaixi saw that her husband was back, she immediately stood up and stepped forward to ask with concern.
Du Shengnian grabbed her little hand, touched a few handfuls, looked at it again, and saw that there were many scars on the white and tender hands, and immediately frowned, "Didn't you say that you can stay at home, why did you hurt your hands again?" ”
Huaixi was a little uncomfortable and wanted to withdraw his hand, but he was caught by his husband, and when he saw his displeasure, he didn't dare to refute, so he had to whisper, "Husband...... Sister Shen is still here. ”
As she spoke, there were already two blushes floating on her face, and she seemed to be a little shy.
Du Shengnian took her hand with a smile and sat down at the table.
Shen Niannian looked at the interaction between the two of them with a calm face, and confirmed his guess.
She knew very well who her eldest cousin was, and looking at the appearance of this couple, she could also know that Huaixi was not a concubine.
"How did you remember to come here? Tired of living in the Snow Garden? Du Shengnian drank the tea directly from Huaixi's cup.
Shen Niannian nodded, "I heard that Xueyuan didn't have anything to do, so I walked around the street and came to play with Sister Huaixi by the way." ”
"What Sister Huaixi, you have to call the eldest cousin." Du Shengnian said with a smile, seeing that she wanted to speak and stopped, and she didn't say anything, she showed a bad heart and looked like she was coming to ask me.
Shen Niannian glared at him angrily.
I haven't seen him for a few years, and my eldest cousin is still as bad as ever.
And Huaixi was like a good wife, serving beside Du Shengnian, smiling and watching their brother and sister chat.
is no longer entangled in Shen Niannian's identity.
That big cousin is enough to explain a lot of things.
Shen Niannian looked at the two of them in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he drank several sips of tea depressedly, and finally waited until Huaixi said that he was going to the kitchen to have a look, and then he couldn't help but speak, "Big cousin, why did Sister Huaixi suddenly become a big cousin?" What about Guan Mingyue? (To be continued.) )
