Chapter 244: No one is guilty of being a saint or a sage
Let's talk about Linshan County, Lin Mei also greeted Liu Yufei before sneaking away that day, and asked her if she wanted to slip away with her, but Liu Yufei was afraid of Liu County's order and Lin Shi's body, so he said that he still stayed to take care of his father and Lin Shi.
Although Lin Mei was very regretful, she still went with Liu Yufei, after all, after this long journey, if Lin Shi couldn't bear it at that time, there would really be no one to send her back, so it was better to stay in Linshan County with Liu Yufei from the beginning; And Wang Huiyuan went back to the temple and took all the private money she had left, and then followed Lin Mei away.
And Shangguan Guifei's side, she also found out that her son eloped with her daughter-in-law who had not passed the door, and she was very angry, but the emperor still had to hide it, so she had to secretly send someone to Linshan County and gave Qi Xiuchao an ultimatum, saying that Xiao Zijin should go back to the palace no matter what, Qi Xiuchao couldn't help Shangguan Guifei, so he could only send Xiao Zijin to the carriage and return to Beijing with him, as well as Qi Xiuchao's confidante Bai Ji girl.
Now it was Xiao Zijin's turn to be angry, this hasn't passed the door yet, Qi Xiuchao actually let her take the side room back to the palace so grandly, so will she have it in the future?
But Xiao Zijin still promised Qi Xiuchao that he would take good care of Miss Bai Ji on the road, but ...... After returning to the palace, she didn't care how Shangguan Guifei tossed his confidante; How can you say that Shangguan Guifei still has face, she absolutely can't tolerate the existence of Bai Ji, she might as well beg for tricks on both sides, and finally reap the benefits of the fisherman.
So, Xiao Zijin and Bai Ji left. The little snow beaver who also took the concubine, and the remaining princes and Xiao Zihuan stayed in the county seat of Linshan County, and the seven princes originally wanted to stay for a few more days. But he left the palace without telling the emperor this time, so if he stayed outside, he was afraid that the emperor would be furious, so he had no choice but to follow Xiao Zijin and his party's convoy back to the capital. At this moment, there are only Xiao Zihuan, Qi Xiuwu and Qi Xiuchao left in the county mansion.
Since Zhao Tao was ruthlessly rejected by Liu Yufei that day, he mistakenly thought that they hated the poor and loved the rich and invited Xiao Zijin to interfere with it. Now he was angry and angry, and after returning home, he suffered from the wind and cold, and now he really never came to Liu Yufei again.
And Tang Yuanzhi lost his soul every day. But the meal still has to be eaten, the business still has to be done, and the plague in Linshan County has passed, so he used the money left from his family to start a cloth business again. He has a good foundation. Now the business is getting bigger and bigger. There are even quite a few branches in other places.
Mrs. Lin and Marquis An Yuan took Zhou Yanxi back to the capital, but they didn't know that Mrs. Zhou had already secretly approved the marriage and let Zhou Yanting marry Zhang Xiaoxi.
In the county seat of Linshan County, although there are two people missing, Shu Wangjin and Shu Zhou, they are still very lively, in the final analysis, because those two people don't need any service at all, and they are easy to feed, but the rest of the people are more delicate than the other. Liu County is shy and increasingly overstretched. sighing all day long, it's good not to bother.
Liu Yufei is a villain, she knows what her father is worried about, and she doesn't want to draw money from her remaining dowry, thinking that there is also a wronged boss, so she sneaked into the man's room on a dark and windy night.
Xiao Zihuan was about to change clothes and rest, but he heard someone knocking on the door late at night, and couldn't help but ask cautiously, "Who is outside the door?" ”
Liu Yufei was still angry with Xiao Zihuan in his heart, naturally he didn't have a good face, and even the volume was much higher than usual, and he said with resentment, "It's my ......"
Xiao Zihuan hadn't seen Liu Yufei for many days, and he had heard from the people in the house that she hadn't eaten for many days, and he was busy with affairs during the day, so he would go to Liu Yufei every day when he had free time; But I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, every time he has free time, Liu Yufei is very busy, often not in the room, or goes out, and over time, Xiao Zihuan can see that Liu Yufei is hiding from it.
He originally wanted to wait until he married Liu Yufei before telling her about the first time the two of them met, but he didn't expect that he didn't know who said that he had missed the news, and after Xiao Zihuan thought about it, it was estimated that there was only Xiao Zijin, and he originally wanted to give Xiao Zijin a good lecture, but Xiao Zijin seemed to know what he was looking for, so he immediately brought out the princess's shelf, saying that he didn't see him.
Xiao Zihuan was choked by Xiao Zijin this time, and he had no choice, so he squeezed out his free time every day to find Liu Yufei, which is good, and he can't even see Liu Yufei's shadow!
Therefore, on this big night, Liu Yufei was willing to come to see him, which made Xiao Zihuan really surprised.
"Miss Liu......" Xiao Zihuan opened the door bolt, and saw Liu Yufei wearing a thick cloak, his hair was half curled, and there were some droplets of water, looking lazy as if he had just come out of the bath. Ape. Meaning. The horse got up.
Liu Yufei had indeed just bathed, and now he couldn't withstand the cold wind in the autumn night with a cloak, his face was frozen pale, and he almost didn't have a cold war.
However, even like this, Xiao Zihuan didn't mean to let Liu Yufei in, and now Liu Yufei was even more angry, and directly gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "Xiao Zihuan, this is your hospitality?" ”
Xiao Zihuan came back to his senses at this time, saw Liu Yufei's face was pale, knew that she was frozen, and hurriedly let her into the house, "Miss Liu, please come in ......"
"This is deep and cold, why does Miss Liu wear so little, and she is not afraid of freezing......" Seeing Liu Yufei enter the house, Xiao Zihuan also closed the door, but saw that Liu Yufei poured himself a cup of hot tea directly to warm his hands, was slightly stunned, and followed.
Liu Yufei poured himself a cup of hot tea to warm his hands, and didn't want to pay attention to Xiao Zihuan at all, but because of the shortage of funds, the life in the house was getting worse, so he had no choice but to come to Xiao Zihuan to rescue.
"I'm making a beauty trick, can't Xiao Gongzi see it?" After Liu Yufei's body warmed up, he was in the mood to reply to Xiao Zihuan's words. She has never been a person who likes to beat around the bush, and she can't pull her face to beg Xiao Zihuan directly.
“……”
Xiao Zihuan silently looked at Liu Yufei's body wrapped tighter than a zongzi. His face was full of helplessness, but he felt funny, so he asked. "Miss Liu, what do you want Xiaosheng to help with? It is incumbent upon Xiaosheng to ......"
"I don't like to owe favors, so now that you've got my favor, you're going to help me...... Otherwise, if the lonely men and widows spread out this night, you will not be able to explain it clearly, and it will hinder your career. Liu Yufei clearly analyzed one by one with Xiao Zihuan. Finally, he glanced at him meaningfully and unfathomably.
Xiao Zihuan became more and more helpless, just thinking that how could all the women in this world look like this? One Xiao Zijin gave him enough headaches, and there was a Liu Yufei who was more lethal than Xiao Zijin.
It's not that Liu Yufei is much better than Xiao Zijin. The important thing is that Xiao Zijin is just Xiao Zihuan's cousin, and Xiao Zihuan naturally doesn't care much about many things, but Liu Yufei is different. It is Xiao Zihuan's sweetheart who has been thinking about him for ten years. Compared with Xiao Zijin, it is naturally Liu Yufei who has more weight in his heart.
"In that case, I don't know what can help Miss Xiao in the future?" Xiao Zihuan pondered for a moment and asked in a different way.
Liu Yufei was still a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, although he and Xiao Zihuan had a marriage contract, it didn't seem very good to go to him to borrow money like this...... After struggling for a long time, the tea in his hand was cold, so Liu Yufei helped himself add another cup of hot tea.
Xiao Zihuan saw it. Hurriedly reached over and poured Liu Yufei a cup of hot tea.
Liu Yufei took a sip and glanced at him. said softly, "Xiao Zihuan......"
"What does Miss Liu command?" Seeing that Liu Yufei finally spoke again, Xiao Zihuan immediately looked at her with a smile, and his already warm face was full of sincerity.
Liu Yufei looked at Xiao Zihuan's appearance, and felt a little irritable in his heart, and he couldn't open up what he wanted to say, so he had to change the topic and said, "You...... How did you know that the person you were looking for back then was me, not Xiaoxi? ”
Xiao Zihuan was slightly stunned, he had wanted to explain this matter to Liu Yufei for a long time, but Liu Yufei had always refused to see him, but he didn't expect to take the initiative to ask about it today, which really flattered him.
"At that time, I had very little status in the family, and after this incident, it took me a long time to find out that it was the young lady of the Zhang family who saved me that day, but ...... I had seen Miss Zhang from afar, but I found out that it was another person, and then I found out that there was also a Miss Zhang in the Zhang family at that time, and I inquired several times before I found out...... It turned out to be Miss Liu, you. ”
Xiao Zihuan smiled lightly, poured himself a cup of tea for himself, took a sip slightly, and under the steaming mist, his eyebrows and eyes were delicate and brilliant, which made Liu Yufei lose his mind for a while.
After sitting quietly in Xiao Zihuan's house for a while, Liu Yufei got up and left, and when he went out, Xiao Zihuan said that he wanted to send her, but she also refused.
Let's talk about Lin Mei's side, although she was very unwell, but in order to let Shu Wangjin and his party rush to Los Angeles as soon as possible, Lin Mei asked Shu Wangjin to change strings and go directly down the river to Los Angeles. Shu Wangjin naturally disagreed, Lin Mei was already unwell, if she got to the boat, she wouldn't be able to stop the boat if she really didn't arrive in Los Angeles.
After several arguments between the two, Lin Mei finally forced her on a hunger strike, and finally let Shu Wangjin change the merchant ship, and the journey, which was only seven or eight days, was suddenly shortened by two or three days.
Lin Mei was still seasick, but after getting used to it, she found that it was much more interesting than riding in a carriage, and it didn't take long for her to stop getting dizzy, but to stay at the bow of the boat every day and fish with those fishermen with fishing rods; She didn't have any surprise in fishing on the boat, so she didn't catch a few fish in the morning, but she boasted in front of Shu Wangjin, and it didn't end well, so she was busy asking those fishermen for fishing experience, and on the second day, she could catch a few small fish.
Since then, Lin Mei has been sitting on the bow of the boat every day, which has relieved Shu Zhou, at least he doesn't have to toss around for this aunt anymore.
Five days later, the merchant ship arrived at the wharf in Los Angeles, and Shu Wangjin and his party got off the bus and went straight to Ding's house; This place is close to the sea, and there are often merchants from overseas countries who come here to do business, so it is very prosperous, and even many strange foods are something that Lin Mei has never seen, and she almost can't even walk after getting out of the car.
Since Shu Wangjin changed ships halfway, Qing Yan and the others didn't know that Shu Wangjin was coming, and they didn't order someone to come to the dock to greet them, which was in line with Shu Wangjin's intentions, and after getting off the car, they directly invited a few carriages to transport the goods, and went straight to Ding's house.
After arriving at Ding's Mansion, the porter heard that Shu Dangjia was coming, and immediately opened the door to let him go, Shu Wangjin asked Shu Zhou to wait here to unload, and he led Lin Mei to follow a delicate maid to the courtyard where Shu Yanjin and others lived.
Before she arrived at the courtyard, Lin Mei saw Qing Yan, and almost didn't react for a while, but Qing Yan, holding a basin of water in her hand, saw Shu Wangjin's eyes turned red, and she knelt down in an instant.
"Young Master...... Can you come......" Qing Yan wiped her tears, ignored Lin Mei, and said heartbrokenly, "You have to call the shots for Young Master Yan Jin!" ”
When Shu Wangjin saw Qing Yan's appearance, he also knew that something was wrong, otherwise, Qing Yan rarely had such a serious posture, and it was about Shu Yanjin, which could not let him relax, otherwise, not to mention Shu Yanjin's father and mother and the Shu family, even Master Shu, he would have to take half of his skin.
"Yan Jin? What happened? Shu Wangjin also had a bad premonition in her heart, and seeing that there were still blood stains in the basin in Qing Yan's hand, she felt that this matter could not be good.
Qing Yan bit her lip, tears rippled, and when she was about to tell, Shu Wangjin said, "What kind of body is it to cry here, enter the house and talk about ......it" There are people coming and going in this courtyard, and there are many people from the Ding family, so Shu Wangjin will ask Qing Yan to restrain his emotions first, and then talk to him when he enters the house.
Lin Meike had never seen Qingyan cry, and she was also concerned for a while, but Shu Yanjin was not very arrogant, how could she let Shu Wangjin help him make the decision?
After entering the house, Qing Yan knelt directly in front of Shu Wangjin and sobbed, "This matter is also related to the slave maid, if it weren't for the slave maid to let the two of them out, I'm afraid that Young Master Yan Jin would not have been subjected to such torture...... Young Master, Young Master Yan Jin asked me to hide it from you, but ...... But the slave and maid really can't stand it! ”
"What the hell is going on?" Shu Wangjin had already prepared for the worst in his heart, but he didn't expect that what Qing Yan said still made him shudder.
“…… Since then, Young Master Yan Jin has not been able to sleep well every night, and his wounds are bleeding nonstop...... The injury is private. In the secret place, the slave maid wanted to help him change the medicine, but the young master of the eyes had to do it himself, and resolutely did not let the slave and maid call the doctor ......"
