Chapter 129: The Three Girls Meet
Su Chen returned home and prepared dinner with Ling'er, it was just dark, and when night fell, a figure appeared at the door of Su's house, wearing a cloak to cover his face, as mysterious as an assassin.
"Master Su, are you at home?" A woman's voice came out.
Su Chen walked out when he heard this, looked at the person in a black robe, took two steps back, became vigilant, and said vigilantly: "Who are you looking for?" ”
There was a light laugh from inside the cloak, and after the hat was put down, a beautiful and delicate face was revealed, and it was Liu Monong who came.
Su Chen was surprised: "Miss Liu, why are you here?" Still dressed up like this! ”
Liu Monong smiled and asked, "What, can't I come?" ”
Su Chen changed his words and said: "That's not what I mean, you should be very busy, right, didn't you have a performance tonight?" Don't you have to socialize? ”
Liu Monong stepped forward, a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and said: "I have been rehearsing five or six plays in the afternoon, and they haven't practiced yet, so I asked the sisters of the drama troupe to continue to practice their lines and perform there in the evening, and then pushed off other entertainment, come and see you, have you eaten dinner?" ”
Su Chen shook his head and said, "Not yet, I just want to eat it!" ”
Liu Monong chuckled and said, "It just so happens that I'll eat with you, I just left in a hurry, and I haven't taken care of dinner yet." ”
This time, Liu Monong came to Su's house alone, only a carriage was parked outside, only the coachman followed, and the maid didn't bring it, so she stayed in Xiangyun Pavilion to help her deal with outsiders.
Ling'er saw this beautiful willow girl coming to the house, and she was also worried about Su Chen, in case she was touched by Sister Qinqing, Brother Su Chen was probably going to be cleaned up again.
Su Chen confessed: "Ling'er, take an extra pair of chopsticks, Miss Liu will have dinner with us." ”
"Okay, Brother Su Chen." Ling'er nodded in response.
After a while, the three of them sat around the table to start the meal, and the table was boiled fish, pot-wrapped meat and other dishes, all of which were Su Chen's modern practices.
"In addition to making hot pot, I didn't expect that Su Gongzi's cooking skills are so good, and I will definitely come here to eat more when I have time in the future!"
This time, without Shen Jiaru and Xiaohe by his side, Liu Monong seemed to let go a lot, and did not treat Su Chen and Ling'er as outsiders, talking and laughing while eating, and having a good meal.
Su Chen also has a good impression of her, as a confidante friend, so they get along very well, as for other aspects for the time being, there is no idea, after all, she is only eighteen years old, just an adult, and she is not in a hurry at all!
I thought that this meal would be eaten smoothly like this, but the happy time is always short-lived, and suddenly the footsteps in the courtyard sounded, and Bai Susu and Peng Jingqing actually came to visit together at this moment.
Ling'er's face changed, the chopsticks in her hand almost fell to the ground, what she was most worried about still happened, and she looked at Xiang Su Chen with some nervousness, not knowing how he should deal with this situation of three women.
One monk carried water to drink, two monks carried water to drink, and three monks did not...... No, it's three women in one play!
Although Su Chen was a little trembling, he pretended to get up as if nothing happened, nodded at Bai Susu and Qin Jing who entered the room, and said, "Why are you here so late, don't you say it in advance, have you eaten?" ”
Bai Susu glanced at Liu Monong, who was holding the dishes and chopsticks during the banquet, and then looked at Su Chen with a smile, and said, "Discuss something outside, He Qinqing didn't go back to the restaurant, so he came to you, and he hasn't eaten dinner yet." ”
Peng Jingqing also glanced at him and said, "Why are you eating so early today, are you here?" ”
Su Chen nodded, and generously introduced to the third girl: "This is Liu Monong girl from Xiangyun Pavilion, you also know, I have treated her, and this time the West Chamber is also a script written by me, she came over to ask when the script of the seven-eight-fold drama will come out, and by the way, there are a few character relationship questions and asked me for advice." ”
Bai Susu and Peng Jingqing suddenly realized that this was Hua Dan of Xiangyun Pavilion, and the famous Ji Liu Monong, who has been in the limelight recently.
Su Chen introduced Liu Monong again: "These two girls are also my friends, Miss Bai Susu is the eldest lady of the Bai family, and she currently has business dealings with me; This Peng Jingqing girl is the daughter of the prefect, and she loves to act chivalrous and righteous the most, and she also has a bookstore cooperation with me. ”
After clearly explaining the relationship between the third daughter and him, he is a pure business partner, at least that's what Su Chen thinks!
There is no need to be weak at all, and there is no need to be afraid of anyone, although the people who do business with Su Chen are all young and beautiful character women, but what's wrong with this, it's not illegal, right? It's not moral, right? Are you still afraid that others will call him a scumbag? Inexistent!
However, Su Chen found that Bai Susu, Peng Jingqing, and Liu Monong looked at him with a sense of strangeness, with a sense of complaint, as if he blamed him for being too simple when he introduced the relationship to him.
Bai Susu smiled faintly, sat down on the bench, pulled Peng Jingqing's shirt, and let the barbarian woman sit down obediently before losing her temper.
"Well, the amount of food is not enough, so I'm going to get an assorted casserole." Su Chen exited the lobby a little unnaturally and went to the kitchen to add a dish.
After half a pillar of incense, he came back with a casserole, and found that the women at the table were talking very harmoniously, which seemed to be more harmonious than when Su Chen was here.
"What a hypocrisy a woman is!" Su Chen slandered in his heart, put a new dish in a casserole, and then continued to eat.
Bai Susu had heard about the annual Oiran Competition, so he asked curiously: "Miss Liu became famous in one fell swoop with the Legend of the West Chamber this time, is she going to win the championship in the Oiran Competition during the Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”
Liu Monong hesitated, glanced at Su Chen secretly, and explained: "I won't force the position of Oiran, I just want to perform a few more plays, consolidate the reputation of Xiangyun Pavilion, repay the kindness of Sang's mother, and repay the favor, so I want to quit the land of fireworks......"
"Oh, Miss Liu wants to redeem herself and leave, should there be someone she likes, so she is willing to quit for him, right?" Bai Susu teased.
When Peng Jingjing heard this, his face was slightly gloomy, and his eyes glared at Su Chen like a sharp sword.
What does it have to do with me, she didn't say that the person she liked was me, in fact, she and Liu Monong were pure friends, and they didn't go beyond the norms, Su Chen felt that Peng Jingqing's eyes were a little inexplicable!
Liu Monong saw Su Chen's unconscious stunned look, and was slightly disappointed in his heart, and said with a faint smile: "That's not true, I just feel that I am not suitable for this profession, I just want to live simply, I don't have to show my head, no one disturbs me, and I am satisfied with being clean and comfortable." ”
After she said this, she had a look of self-pity and self-pity, which made people feel pitiful, but she saw that Bai Susu and Peng Jingqing were a little sympathetic.
"Eat the vegetables, eat the vegetables!" Su Chen rounded the scene in time, let the girls eat, don't try to talk about it.
Yang Ling'er lowered her head, actively responded to Su Chen's call, sandwiched the vegetables and ate them quickly, even at the age of twelve, she could see that the atmosphere was not right, and sweated for her brother.
After dinner, Liu Monong took the seven-eight-fold script and left with a sigh.
Peng Jingqing snorted softly at Su Chen: "It's okay to go to Hualou to eat and drink, why did you bring it home?" ”
Su Chen said with an innocent face: "Didn't Fang Cai explain, people came to get the script, and by the way, they asked for questions." ”
"Do you think I believe it?" Peng Jingqing took a sip and turned to Ling'er to talk.
"Believe it or not, I believe it anyway." Su Chen shrugged [ ] and said.
Bai Susu walked over at this time, stood beside him, his eyes were opposite to him, and suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that you praise me for being generous, and I am a conscientious partner?" ”
"......" Su Chen stood in place and smiled awkwardly.
