276 Unintentional faux pas
Wang Shiqiang stiffened in his chair.
The expression on his face changed, and after a while, he finally nodded and sighed:
“…… You're right. I was rude just now, and three or four percent of them unconsciously took out anger on you. ”
He smiled, put his hand on his forehead, and looked sideways at her,
"Master Lou is a favorite of the official family and my in-law, until I can restrain him, I never thought of touching you."
When Ji Qingchen heard him admit his mistake so readily, she didn't have much comfort in her heart, but sank.
This man didn't give up at all.
Although she was not unaware of the current situation.
"Since my grandson is at odds with Lord Wang, it is not convenient for me to conspire with you here, so as not to spoil a major matter and delay your future and my life. I'll go and tell Xiu Wang Sun that Zhao Tuanlian will negotiate with you. ”
The anxiety in her heart deepened, and she quickly finished a few words, made a gesture of invitation, and asked Wang Shiqiang to leave.
"Don't you ask me, what kind of enmity I have with Lou Yun, do I have to be angry with you?"
Wang Shiqiang did not pester her.
He lifted the cloak from the back of his chair with one hand, and took the handkerchief from his sleeve.
He walked to the colored glass window on the south side and carefully wiped the tea leaves from his collar.
She knew that he didn't want to go out and let people see the flaws, and she didn't rush him.
She just glanced at the green tea leaves on his handkerchief, and finally figured out the reason why she was restless for a while.
She's been jealous.
Because it can be seen from the accounts that Lou Yun has been delivering tea to Lou Luanpei.
Start your business at Kwan Kee Warehouse. He's been sending it for more than ten years.
"Lou Yun likes Luan Pei very much."
As she flew away, Wang Shiqiang's voice beckoned her back to the front cabin.
She heard her own heart, and it rang not lightly.
Dry and cold.
He had already fastened his thick brocade cloak. Walked to the hatch curtain.
There was also a bottle of high plums next to the cabin, and he casually folded a small branch in his hand, played with it between his fingers, and said with a smile:
"Last year, Zuo Ping told me that when Luan Pei was chatting with her aunt, she mentioned that she saw an Eastern Zhou Vessel in the Honglong Treasure Workshop in the capital, and she liked it very much. I wanted to give her a birthday present. I forgot about it because I was busy with business. As a result, on her birthday, Zuo Ping said that among the three antiques given to her by Lord Lou, there was a Xiaoding of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. ”
Ji Qingchen knew that he didn't accept any wives and concubines. But she didn't expect her current love either.
She heard Wang Shiqiang talk about this trivial matter, and she intellectually felt that Lou Yun had been taken care of by the Lou family, and if it wasn't for the Mingzhou Lou family, he would not have been able to become a Song person so smoothly and learn Song etiquette.
Not to mention studying for the imperial examination and entering the officialdom.
His reciprocation with such a heart is a sign of his gratitude.
She doesn't need to be jealous at all.
But she felt it clearly. There was a rush of heat from the door of her head to the top of her head.
The hot breath suddenly jumped like a pot of boiling water. Let her head swell.
Tea, Eastern Zhou utensils, and Lou Luanpei.
The last time she had such a relationship, it was a few years ago when Wang Shiqiang repented of marrying and remarried.
"I originally thought that this was the reason why Master Lou knew how to repay his kindness, just like he broke up our marriage for Luan Pei's words, and he didn't care about how you handled yourself."
Wang Shiqiang just smiled and wanted to continue,
"I didn't expect him to be so fond of my wife."
"Lord Wang has nothing to say. Please go back. ”
She urged faintly,
"My grandson didn't force you to marry Mrs. Lou. You're all in charge of it, and if you still hold a grudge against him for this, I don't know what to do. ”
Wang Shiqiang didn't see any change in expression from her face.
But she didn't question him about provoking their husband and wife, and he understood that she herself was already suspicious.
"As long as you know what you know."
He stared at her and smiled:
"I originally thought that I was the only one in the world who would never forget the old love, and only I would have such a disgraceful mind for other people's wives uncontrollably. Now it seems that Lou Yun is not much better than me......"
In her expressionless gaze, he paused and smiled,
"If it weren't for the fact that they were all surnamed Lou, they would be a good match."
"If Lord Wang thinks so, how can you be worthy of the affection you had for your wife in Putuo Temple for a month?"
She finally spoke.
Wang Shiqiang could see her clenched hands under her sleeves, just looking at her with a smile.
"I was confused for a moment. You always refuse to forgive me. ”
“……”
Before she could barely control herself and wanted to drive him straight out of the riverboat, he stepped out of the hatch.
The dark blue cotton curtain hangs behind him.
Wang Shiqiang smiled slightly, walked in front of the frowning Ji Mo, and walked off the river boat quickly.
"Sir. Huang Dongzhu wrote to say that Master Lou had appeased Li Quan in Shandong. In order to contain the movement of the Jin army in the southwest, the official family ordered Lou to be stationed in Jeju. He didn't have time to come over to pick up Ji Niangzi back for the time being. ”
"Why bother him to come, I can naturally calm down the situation in the southwest."
He went back to his courtyard, and was invited by Wu Bai to speak in front of the courtyard gate.
He turned around, and Wang Xin whispered after him.
"Sir, Madame heard the news that my lord was safe and wrote a letter. Two winter coats were also delivered. ”
“……”
The mountain surrounds the river bank, the river diversion canal crosses through the post house, and there is a small building with stilts between the mountains and rivers in the distance.
The small piece of wax plum blossom branch he broke off was thrown into the river by him.
Why did she write again? I don't have to read Madame's letters in the future. It's not like I'm out of clothes. ”
Wang Xin didn't dare to speak out.
Wang Shiqiang walked forward with a faint expression.
He remembered Ji Qingchen's ridicule of him again:
He was resentful of Lou Yun instead of his wife, Ji Qingchen.
Over the years, he has checked and checked, and Lou Yun is the only man who has correspondence with Lou Luanpei.
Although Lou Luanpei writes a letter every month, although it has never been sent out and has been pressed at the bottom of the makeup box, he has seen a few letters, and the content of the letters is to complain to his old lover and complain about all kinds of trivial things in life.
Now he knows that the old lover is Lou Yun.
The sun in the depths of winter was neither cool nor warm, and he stopped by the plum tree in the pool.
The spring plums on the edge of the post house pool have not yet arrived, and there are only a little green bones, revealing a slight red heart.
He stepped forward and folded a few unopened red spring plums.
"Take it and give it to Ji Niangzi. I don't mean to say that I was rude today. ”
Wang Xin hurriedly responded, but hesitated.
"If Mrs. Ji asks, what is the intention of the master to send this flower that has not bloomed, how will the villain answer......
On the banks of the river, the wind blew harder.
Ji Qingchen sat alone in the cabin.
The fire crackled, and the spring plum sent by Wang Xin burned in the charcoal basin in front of her feet, jumping out of the open flame, but also oozing the faint fragrance of plants and trees.
Wang Xin's laughing voice still sounded in her ears.
"Ji Niangzi, your master said that in addition to apologies, there is also a word for you. He said that although Lamei is blooming well now. But after the spring, I thanked him. Although the spring plum has not bloomed yet, his is his, and when the time comes, the flowers will bloom. ”
She closed her eyes slightly.
She still remembers the night flowers when the red plums are in full bloom.
It was in Qinglong Temple that year that she and Lou Yun held hands for the first time and walked by the flower wall of Hongchunmei.
The Buddha lamp is clear, and Erbai and Sibai are still sprinkling joy on her skirt......
She didn't forget the smile of Lou Yun at that time, and the joy overflowing in her heart.
"Big lady."
Lao Siniang walked in quietly and whispered, "The woman has gone to inquire clearly." Lord Wang raised a very pampered outer room in Qinzhou. I heard that the outer room is the daughter of the Tusi Guan family. ”
“…… Did he want to take advantage of this time to quell the rebellion in the southwest and establish his own foundation in Sichuan? ”
She opened her eyes and frowned slightly,
"Toast Guan's family? Is it Guan He and Guan Suo's sisters? ”
"I heard it's not. There are hundreds of villages under the name of Guanjia Tusi, and there are many villages that are not subject to Wang Hua in the old deep mountains. Toast didn't dare to care. The woman heard that Lord Lou ......"
Lao Siniang also inquired about other news, but she didn't dare to say it for a while.
"What's wrong with Lord Lou?"
Ji Qingchen was now suspicious, and asked her in a deep voice.
Lao Siniang didn't dare to hide it, and whispered:
"Ji Mo, they occasionally heard from the mouths of the Guan brothers that before Lord Lou went out of Nanyi, there was a good friend who was a person from the old deep mountain village over there." (To be continued......)
