Chapter 144: Discovering Zhao Quanquan
"Girl, just go in directly, and a maid will lead the way when the time comes."
The inner courtyard is not something that the little maid can enter casually, and the gate of the small courtyard is the dividing line between the small house and the inner courtyard.
Zhao Canniang actually understood this, so she nodded and walked in directly.
The more you go inside, the more orchids there are, and there are really not many other flowers and plants in the garden, but the orchid is surprisingly many.
Zhao Canniang had only taken two steps, and a little girl hurriedly walked up.
The little girl was wearing a pink cardigan skirt with a few beaded flowers on her head.
"Is it Miss Zhao?" The little girl's voice was still a little immature, but her tone was indescribably respectful.
Zhao Canniang nodded and said to the girl, "I am." ”
The little girl smiled slightly, and the smile on her face was even brighter: "My young lady has been looking forward to you for a long time, you can be regarded as coming to see my young lady, Miss Zhao, please." ”
Zhao Canniang followed the little girl and walked slowly.
Maybe it's the spring orchid in the flower bed that has bloomed, and there is a faint scent of orchids in the air.
After a while, he was directly taken into the main hall of this courtyard by the maid.
Zhao Canniang followed the maid into the house when she heard Miss Chen Er's voice.
"Sister, you came to see me, I thought you forgot about me."
When Zhao Canniang heard this, she smiled slightly, the temper of the second miss of the Chen family really suited her appetite.
At this time, the second lady of the Chen family had already walked in front of Zhao Canniang, and her face was a little excited.
Zhao Canniang kept having a faint smile on her face.
I haven't seen Miss Chen Jiaer for about half a year, and Miss Chen Jiaer is wearing a goose yellow embroidered butterfly skirt at this moment. The golden silk hosta with butterflies taking off all the time on her head matches the skirt on her body.
Zhao Canniang looked at Miss Chen Jiaer in a very good mood. Then he handed the small potted plant in his hand to Miss Chen Jiaer: "Sister, I saw that this one was beautiful, so I bought it." If I had known that my sister liked orchids, I would have chosen orchids. ”
Miss Chen Jiaer took the flower and handed it to the little maid next to her, and then stepped forward and gently grabbed Zhao Canniang's arm, and then said: "I'm happy if you can come, don't you know that I have heard that you are back, I have been looking forward to you coming to see me at home, and I know that you are a little conscienceless, and I have never come so that my eyes are about to look through the courtyard wall." ”
As soon as these words came out, the distance between Zhao Canniang and Miss Chen Er was instantly shortened.
Zhao Canniang had a faint smile on her face. sat on a chair next to Miss Chen Er.
Miss Chen Er always had a smile on her face: "Why did you say that you only came to see me now, if the reason does not satisfy me, you will be punished!" ”
Miss Chen Er's face was coquettish.
Zhao Canniang looked at the second miss of the Chen family with some guilt, in fact, she had never remembered this matter, if it weren't for the family matter today, Zhao Canniang would not have remembered it.
In fact, Zhao Canniang felt very guilty about this matter.
But then again, it's not to blame Zhao Canniang, after all, Zhao Canniang has always been here, and her only good friend is Sister Yan. Except for Sister Yan, she really hasn't had contact with other girls, so she naturally doesn't know the etiquette inside.
and the way to get along in between.
Zhao Canniang felt that she still had a lot to learn.
"I'm really sorry, sister, I actually wanted to come to see you for a long time, but I've been very busy at home. I'm just busy arranging everything at home now, so I'm going to come to see you, and I ask my sister not to be angry. If you want to beat or punish, you will listen to your sister. Zhao Canniang looked at the second lady of the Chen family with a guilty face.
But I saw Miss Chen Jia's second miss laughing out loud.
"My sister is really serious! I'm kidding you, but I know you've been busy. But my sister is really good, and she can handle things at home well. I'm really envious of my sister. ”
The second lady of the Chen family really inquired about Zhao Canniang, and knew that Zhao Canniang had been busy directing the people in the village to plant hemp taro, and she was actually very distressed.
Zhao Canniang stuck out her tongue and said mischievously: "Sister-in-law, don't envy me, I was also forced." ”
For the second miss of the Chen family, Zhao Canniang is really relieved now, what she is most afraid of is that Zhao Qingfeng will come in and her daughter-in-law will come back, and when the time comes, she will not be able to get along with her and the Qin family, and Zhao Qingfeng will be in a dilemma in the middle at that time.
But now that I see Miss Chen Jiaer, I feel that such a thing will not happen.
Miss Chen Jiaer is sensible.
Zhao Canniang saw that Miss Chen Jiaer wanted to speak several times, and knew that Miss Chen Jiaer should want to ask Zhao Qingfeng about it, and Zhao Canniang was not an ignorant person.
Seeing this, he smiled and said, "My brother often talks about you!" He's hard-mouthed, but I know that I'm nagging for you in my heart, sister, I can't wait for you to marry into my family and become my sister-in-law! ”
Zhao Canniang's words are to convey a message to Miss Chen Jiaer, Zhao Qingfeng misses her.
Sure enough, as soon as the second miss of the Chen family heard Zhao Canniang say this, her face instantly turned red.
The red face looked like a ripe apple, and it was very cute.
"Did he really think about me?" Miss Chen Jiaer's voice was very small, and her face was also very shy.
Zhao Canniang hurriedly nodded and said: "This is naturally true, I won't lie to my sister, but my brother should have been working hard recently, by the way, my sister hasn't seen Mr. Chen for a long time, and I don't know what Mr. Chen is doing?" ”
The eldest son of Chen in Zhao Canniang's mouth is naturally Chen Zhongqiu.
Since the last time she said goodbye in Yucheng, Zhao Canniang has not seen Chen Zhongqiu.
Zhao Canniang has few friends, so she naturally wants to know the latest situation of the other party.
Miss Chen Er knew that the relationship between Zhao Canniang and Chen Zhongqiu was very good, and she didn't hide it at this time and said: "My brother didn't know what he did wrong and was thrown outside by my father to practice, this should have happened a year ago, but he came back in a hurry and left directly, and even I didn't see my brother." ”
When Miss Chen Jiaer said this. He looked a little worried.
Zhao Canniang suddenly realized.
"By the way, what did my sister do when she asked my brother about it?" Miss Chen Jiaer asked more suspiciously.
Zhao Canniang smiled and replied, "Just ask." The eldest prince helped us a lot last time in Yucheng, and if it weren't for his brother's restaurant, he might not have been able to open it. ”
Miss Chen Jiaer understood. Maybe Zhao Canniang wanted to say thank you to Chen Zhongqiu.
Miss Chen Jiaer said: "It turned out to be this matter, my brother estimated that it would take some time to come back this time, and this time my brother seemed to really provoke my father and mother." ”
Zhao Canniang couldn't help but think in her heart, because Chen Zhongqiu should have made some big mistake!
"Sister, why do you have so many orchids in your yard, do you like orchids very much?"
This yard is basically full of orchids, which is enough to see the owner's love for orchids.
Miss Zhao Jiaer smiled and explained: "I like orchids very much, I like the elegant temperament of orchids very much. Does my sister like flowers? ”
Being asked like this, Zhao Canniang was stunned, and she seemed to be getting farther and farther away from the lady's route after being reborn. Instead, she became more and more female.
I really don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
Zhao Canniang nodded stubbornly.
Miss Chen Jiaer seems to be very knowledgeable about orchids, and then she will explain to Zhao Canniang one after another.
In the blink of an eye, the sun was setting in the west from the afternoon.
Because Zhao Canniang has been watching the yard at home for a while recently, she plans to go out of the city directly tonight and go home.
Under the reluctance of the second miss of the Chen family, Zhao Canniang left directly.
In fact, Zhao Canniang also wanted to stay with Miss Chen Jiaer.
went straight back to the restaurant, and at this time the restaurant had already started business.
Zhao Bingniang's face has been helping in the front hall since she got better, and it is really Zhao Bingniang who has reformed herself, and she usually rushes to do things. Aunt Liao and the Qin family are also becoming more and more satisfied with Zhao Bingniang.
When Zhao Canniang entered the store, she saw Zhao Bingniang wiping the table, nodded to Zhao Bingniang, and Zhao Canniang went directly to the back kitchen.
Qin was chopping vegetables in the back.
"Mother, I'm back." Zhao Canniang walked in front of the Qin family with a smile on her face, and then handed a box to the Qin family: "This is a gift from your future daughter-in-law." You must take it. ”
Zhao Canniang's face was cunning.
Zhao Canniang's eyes made the Qin family helpless: "How can you accept other people's gifts casually." ”
Zhao Canniang was very dissatisfied: "Mother, the second miss of the Chen family is no one else, it is your daughter-in-law."
As soon as he said this. Aunt Liao, who had just come in to serve the food, also said with a smile: "Canniang is right, your daughter-in-law wants to honor you as soon as possible." You're still there to disgust, if I were you. I had already happily accepted the things. ”
Qin glanced at Aunt Liao helplessly, but saw that Aunt Liao had already arrived at the stove and put the two dishes that had just been prepared in the tray.
"I don't think it's good to take things like this!" Qin felt that it was a bit unruly for the second miss of the Chen family to accept other people's gifts just before she entered the door.
Aunt Liao smiled: "What's so bad, if you really feel bad, just go back another day." ”
After speaking, Aunt Liao took the dishes out.
"Mother, I'll put my things here, and I'll go back first."
On the third day, Zhao Canniang packed up a little thing and went directly to the town.
After a day's journey, when she finally arrived at the town, Zhao Canniang couldn't help but sigh, the distance between this town and the county seat is not very far, but because the road is too winding, so it is delayed for so long every time.
In the evening, when she arrived in the town, Zhao Canniang paid for the car and went directly to the inn.
After settling down the room, Zhao Canniang went out to eat.
The town is still the same as before, the merchants from Baiyun County, as well as the merchants who come to Baiyun County to do business are gathered in this town, and the town is very lively.
Zhao Canniang was in a very good mood walking on the streets of the town.
Now the business in the restaurant is full, and there may not be a place to go.
On the streets, the makeshift vendors are packing up their things and preparing to go home.
Zhao Canniang is just simply strolling around to kill time.
Just when Zhao Canniang was about to go to find a restaurant to eat, an emaciated figure passed in front of Zhao Canniang.
"Zhao Quanquan?" Zhao Canniang looked at Zhao Quanquan in front of her in surprise.
That Zhao Quanquan was wearing a cyan patch long coat, his hair was messy, and his figure had lost a lot of weight.
It seems that Zhao Quanquan didn't find Zhao Canniang, and after Zhao Quanquan walked forward for a while, he went directly to a relatively hidden shop on the street.
Although the door of the store was not written in a font such as a casino, Zhao Canniang knew in her heart that the store in front of her should be a casino.
After such a long time of accumulation, Zhao Canniang no longer hates Zhao Quanquan so much.
Zhao Bingnong's health is not good, and he can drag it all the time, also because Zhao Bingniang's willpower is relatively firm, otherwise I am afraid that it would have ...... a long time ago.
Now seeing that the escaped Zhao Quanquan is in a small town not very far from the county seat, Zhao Canniang can't help but sigh, this Zhao Quanquan's courage is really not a little big.
After Zhao Quanquan went in, he was kicked out soon after.
Zhao Canniang sat diagonally opposite the casino and drank tea, Zhao Canniang specially chose a position that could be observed by the window, and could see the situation in the casino.
Zhao Quanquan was pushed out by the people in the casino, and then several thug-looking people came out and punched and kicked Zhao Quanquan.
It just so happened that at this time, Xiao Er in Chaliao was pouring tea for Zhao Canniang.
Seeing Zhao Canniang looking at things outside, she said helplessly: "That person is a gambling stick who died, not only a gambling stick, but also a casino horseman, who often abducts past businessmen to gamble, this person is not a thing, just the restaurant in front of the closed door, the previous boss was deceived by him to gamble, and now the family is ruined." ”
The words of the shopkeeper made Zhao Canniang "chuckle" in her heart, but she didn't expect that Zhao Quanquan was still doing the previous business, which was really a little bad.
"This person will not be so miserable according to reason, isn't it a trick to go to a gambling casino and give money!" This is similar to the modern intermediary fee, it stands to reason that Zhao Quanquan deceived so many people into gambling, and the casino must give money.
But what's going on with beating Zhao Quanquan now?
The shopkeeper glanced at Zhao Quanquan, who was crawling on the ground, and continued: "It's not because of gambling, just now that person is very addicted to gambling, not only is he addicted to gambling but also spends money lavishly, you don't know that he has only been in town for about a year, and there are many women around him." After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he went down directly.
Zhao Canniang looked at Zhao Quanquan, who had climbed under the eaves of the street, and looked at Zhao Quanquan's emaciated appearance, and her heart was calm.
She didn't expect Zhao Quanquan to end up like this, so she gambled that there were still many women around her.
Why did Zhao Canniang think of such a thing, and all that was left in Zhao Canniang's heart was sadness?
Seeing that Zhao Quanquan rested for a while and then limped away, Zhao Canniang settled the account and left. (To be continued......)
