Chapter 21: The Boy Who Missed His Appointment
Wen Sheng actually didn't like or get used to Li's slimy dependence on her, but when Li Rong said this, she still changed her face slightly, and after a pause, she discussed: "Then don't arrange any marriage for me, the matter they want to blackmail me will be handled by me, if I can handle this matter properly, uncle, should you also consider my thoughts?" โp>
Anyway, it is indeed a bit shocking for a girl's family to wander out alone, and Wen Sheng can only tell the people of the Li family to believe that she has such an ability, and then talk about the rest slowly. p>
I also have to find a way to leave a pension silver for the Li family. p>
But where does the money come from? You can't make a living by selling paintings in the future. p>
Thinking about it like this, it is really complicated, unlike when Miss Gu Jiajiu wanted to go where she had her own servants to check before and after, just leave, but it was inconvenient to have an accident at hand, with the gold-lettered signboard of the Gu family, she would be warmly welcomed wherever she went, Wen Sheng frowned and said goodbye to Li Rong. p>
Leaving Li Rong to sit alone, the more he thought about it, the more wrong he became, so he found his son Li Congwu and asked Wen Sheng what he had been doing these days. p>
Li Congwu was uneasy, and he didn't know whether to tell his cousin's amazing cousins to the family, Li Rong specifically asked, he only thought that his father had found something, and he didn't care about being afraid of being scolded, and he explained all the contacts between his cousin and the young master of the Bai family. p>
After Li Congwu finished speaking, the father and son stared at each other, and it took a while for Li Rong to come back to his senses and say, "How is it possible?" Could it be that your sister scribbled and happened to make the young master Bai happy? โp>
Judging from the rumors in the market and the story of his son, the young master surnamed Bai is obsessed with painting, and he doesn't know much about the world, and his level of painting is also very average, so he can be coaxed by Sheng'er, otherwise how to explain that a little girl who has never learned to paint suddenly has amazing skills? It's not a ghost possession, a fairy dream! p>
For no reason, the screams of Gu's wife Jiang that day seemed to suddenly sound in Li Rong's ears: "I don't know which fox spirit I am possessed, and I won't have the face to see my in-laws after I die......" p >
"No, Dad, didn't you see the painting painted by your cousin, and the words she wrote, although I don't understand it, I can see that it's good, Master Yun from our dart game was also there that day, and even he couldn't pull out his eyes, by the way, she kept the painting." p>
Li Rong only felt a chill surging from the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't help but shiver. p>
He raised his voice and hurriedly interrupted his son: "Okay, don't say it. You...... Don't tell anyone about these things first, remember, don't tell your mother or your sister. โp>
"Oh." Li Congwu thought that his father was thinking about his cousin's reputation, and said humbly: "I know." โp>
Li Rong waved his hand and signaled that his son could go, Li Congwu was surprised that he was not scolded, he walked to the door in a daze and touched it back, and asked timidly: "Cousin will ask me to accompany her out in two days......" p >
Li Rong was distraught and muttered: "You go and watch her, don't make trouble, and don't be in danger." It's so big that you have a long look, come back and tell me. โp>
Li Congwu responded, and he didn't know if he understood the meaning of this advice. p>
Li Rong looked at his son's generous back when he came out of the house, but his heart tightened: "Sheng'er pulls Congwu every time she goes out, I'm afraid I'm worried about encountering dangerous accidents, she is young, and she wants to be thoughtful." โp>
Not to mention that the more Li Rong thought about it, the more restless she became, just talking about Wen Sheng's side, although Li Rong told her not to go out, but how could she make money if she didn't go out, let alone abide by her agreement with Bai Linyuan, so she decided to take her uncle's words as a deaf ear, and when she saw that the outside guard was not so strict on the nineteenth day of the winter month, she changed her clothes as usual, and asked Li Congwu to accompany her to the Chen family's old store. p>
It was very smooth to go out, as if Li Rong had suddenly figured it out, and no longer cared where she was going and what she was doing. p>
Wen Sheng was just puzzled for a moment and didn't think much about it. p>
Suddenly, there was a light rain in the sky, and the rain was mixed with ice particles, and it was wet and cold when it fell on the body, which made people's mood less pleasant. p>
There were still officers and bands of soldiers on the street checking passers-by, but people like the brother and sister were no longer stopped for questioning. p>
After a few street corners, Wen Sheng just casually glanced at it and was almost sure that the assassin had not been caught for so many days, and the government no longer pinned its hopes on the other party's self-surrender net, Lishui had been locked down for ten days, and it was impossible to seal it forever, and the best time to capture him was about to pass. p>
It is likely that the assassination of Mr. Shouyang will become an unsolved case. p>
The old store of the Chen family is obviously affected by the lockdown, the business is cold, the door of the inn in broad daylight is actually hidden, even if those unlucky outsiders are fine at this time, who knows if they will be moved to the prison to stay in the next moment, one by one, they are worried, where is there still leisure ** fun, the locals are honest to stay at home, let alone come to drink tea and listen to books. p>
However, this kind of weather should not be able to stop Bai Linyuan. p>
Wen Sheng stepped forward and stretched out his hand to push open the hidden door. p>
The shop was quiet, and Li Congwu said "Huh" and greeted, "Where's the guy?" What about people? โp>
Wen Sheng walked in, stood at the bottom of the platform and looked upstairs. On a rainy day, the house was dark, and it was almost upstairs to Cheng Dรน, who needed to light the lamp, but her eyes were very good, and the table they had sat at that day was empty, to be exact, there were no idlers upstairs and downstairs in the old Chen family's old store at this time. p>
After a while, the shopkeeper who was that day poked his head out of the back kitchen when he heard the sound, and when he saw that it was the two of them, he smiled and said, "Why did the two masters come here at this time?" Please sit down, what are you going to do? โp>
Since he is a person he knows, it is better to speak, Wen Sheng said in a deep voice: "Young Master Bai is here?" โp>
On that day, the people in the yamen came to the store to check and talked to Lin Bo in front of the shopkeepers, in fact, Hongjian felt that with the ability of these guys to look at people, there was no such thing, and he should also recognize the precious son of such a famous Bai Dian Shi. p>
The guy immediately smiled flatteringly: "The two of you have an appointment with Young Master Bai?" He hasn't arrived yet. Oh, on the thirteenth, Young Master Bai stayed with us for most of the day. Sit down first, I'll light the lamp for the two of you, and I'll have something to eat. โp>
Wen Sheng frowned when he heard this, and looked at the weather outside. p>
Li Congwu also said: "Could it be that it is raining and not ready to come?" โp>
Wen Sheng felt that Bai Linyuan was a very reasonable person, since he said that it was still the day he set, he should not miss the appointment because of the rain. She sat down and said, "Wait. โp>
The shopkeeper lit the lamp, and the business was deserted for days, and he couldn't help but keep complaining while cleaning up. p>
But this time, Wen Sheng waited in Chen's old store until the rain stopped at noon, but Bai Linyuan did not come. p>
