Chapter 266: Hua Xu's dream is short
"Your new owner is really a strange person," Zhu Zhiqing blinked, revealing a hint of admiration, "I really want to meet him." ”
"Our new owner is not here," the shopkeeper explained, "The owner of his family has a big business, this Feihongju restaurant is just a property below him, how can he personally keep an eye on here, besides, our owner's husband is an official in Beijing, and he will not let the owner show his head everywhere." ”
"Your host's husband?" Zhu Zhiqing said curiously: "Could it be that your owner is a woman?" ”
"Yes!" The shopkeeper scratched his head, "The little one didn't seem to say that the owner was a man, right?" ”
"Then she is really amazing," Zhu Zhiqing praised: "A mere female stream, able to go south and north, based on the business world, vertical and horizontal, this vision and courage even the bearded man is ashamed!" ”
"That's," the shopkeeper echoed, "to be able to marry a woman like our owner, and her husband doesn't know how many lifetimes of blessings ...... cultivated" As he was talking, he heard someone outside shouting: "Ah Si, Qi Ah Si...... This kid doesn't know where to hide again. ”
The shopkeeper stuck out his tongue and confessed to Zhu Zhiqing: "The shopkeeper is calling me, it must be Miss Ning who came out to inspect, son, you use it slowly, the little one should be busy." With that, he bowed and prepared to retreat.
"Who is Miss Ning?" Zhu Zhiqing asked.
"She is our host's personal maid, and she is also the person who is really in charge here......" Before he finished speaking, his name was called outside again, Qi Ah Si agreed, and hurriedly went.
"It's Miss Wei Ning who is in charge, it won't have anything to do with you, right?" Zhu Zhiqing glanced at Ning Zuer.
"The county lord laughed, how can the person in charge here have anything to do with me?" Ning Zuer said with a smile.
"Her surname is Ning, and your surname is Ning, do you say it's a coincidence?" Zhu Zhiqing's beautiful eyes flickered, "If it weren't for you being by my side, I would have thought that you had changed into a woman's clothes and sold wine." ”
"What the county lord said, I am not the only one in the world with the surname Ning, why should someone else's surname Ning have something to do with me?"
Zhu Zhiqing smiled, her eyes fluttering, "Sometimes I really want to see how beautiful you will be when you change into women's clothes!"
Ning Zuer's face sank and she turned her gaze to the side.
"Minyu, there are no outsiders here, why don't you sit down and eat with us?" Zhu Zhiqing didn't want to tease him anymore, so she turned to Minyu and said.
"County Lord, how can this be, Minyu is just a subordinate, how can he sit at the same table with you?" Minyu lowered her head and took a step back.
"This is not a palace, and Ning Gongzi won't laugh at you......" Zhu Zhiqing said and glanced at Ning Zuer.
Ning Zu'er couldn't avoid her gaze anymore, so she said to Minyu with a pleasant face: "Yes, Minyu, the rules here are not so big, you stand here, don't say that the county lord is not used to it, even I can't move chopsticks." ”
Seeing that she couldn't shirk it, Minyu had to sit down next to the chair timidly.
Zhu Zhiqing smiled, picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Ning Zuer, which made Ning Dagongzi stand up quickly.
"Don't push it yet," Zhu Zhiqing smiled at him, "I still want to ask you for something here." ”
"County Lord, please speak." Ning Zuer picked up the wine glass with some sincere fear, seeing that she stared at the wine glass in her hand with a smile on her face and did not speak, she understood what it meant, so she drank the wine in the cup head-on.
"Okay, refreshed!" Zhu Zhiqing praised and filled his wine glass again, but this time she didn't persuade him, and said to him in a soft tone: "This time I came to the capital, I sent someone ......."
Ning Zuer listened very carefully, and saw that she stopped silent, with an inquiring expression on her face.
Zhu Zhiqing didn't continue, but smiled and changed the topic, "When you opened the seal, you also knew that it was Minyu who had been taking care of Yang Muyun. ”
Ning Zuer nodded.
"At that time, Minyu had been carefully boiling medicine for Yang Muyun and taking care of his diet and daily life, which can be described as conscientious, and you also saw it in your eyes, right?" Zhu Zhiqing saw him nodding yes, and said what she had just said, "Now that Minyu wants to come to him, I'll send her over." ”
As soon as these words came out, Min Yudeng's cheeks were dizzy, and he was embarrassed.
Ning Zu'er glanced at her in surprise, and then turned to Zhu Zhiqing and said, "Does the county lord mean that Miss Minyu has a love for Yang Muyun, so she came to him specifically?" ”
"No, no, no," Minyu hurriedly interjected: "I'm just worried about Yang Gongzi's poison, so I want to come and take a look, there is no other meaning, Ning Gongzi, you must not say this to him." ”
"Silly girl," Zhu Zhiqing glanced at her and smiled: "You came all the way here for a man like this, haven't you already confessed your thoughts, and what are you hiding from?" He turned to Ning Zuer and said, "Ning Gongzi, you say, how do you want to settle her?" ”
"This ......" Ning Zu'er thought for a while and said: "This is a matter between Brother Yang and Miss Minyu, and it is inconvenient for me to put a beak in it, but Brother Yang is not in the capital now......"
"He's not in the capital?" Minyu raised her head and looked at Ning Zu'er with a pair of big watery eyes, "Then he's ...... Where did he go? "The concern is palpable.
"He...... He went on a business trip. Ning Zuer hesitated for a moment and said.
"Is the place he went to dangerous?" A hint of melancholy appeared on the flawless face of the white jade.
"Hmm......" Ning Zuer said with a strange face: "Dangerous? How do you think that? ”
"Yang Gongzi is like this, what he does is always thrilling, and it is impossible for people not to worry about him." Minyu said with some embarrassment.
"You really know him," Ning Zuer said secretly in her heart: "It seems that your little girl is really emotional about him." ”
"Young Master Ning," Zhu Zhiqing interrupted his thoughts, "Since Yang Muyun is not in the capital, you can send Minyu to the place where he lives." It's better to wait for him to come back. ”
"This ...... Not quite right. Ning Zuer's hand couldn't help but rub her nose.
"What's this, that," Zhu Zhiqing's face showed a hint of gloom, "People are looking for him from afar, and they can't even let people recognize him." ”
"What the county lord said is," Ning Zu'er seemed to have made up her mind, "Wait for a while to run out of food, and Ning will lead you there." ”
The table was full of dishes, and the three of them didn't move a few chopsticks. Zhu Zhiqing ate very carefully, chewed and swallowed slowly, and said that she was full after only a few spoons, and Minyu did not belong to her thoughts, and she ate less than Zhu Zhiqing.
As a result, it was a pity that there was a table of dishes, and it seemed that basically no one had touched it. Ning Zuer asked the shop guy to pack all the dishes on the table, and was about to calculate whether the silver he was carrying was enough, when the curtain was lifted, and a middle-aged man wearing an autumn-colored brocade robe, a soft-footed head, a wide nose and a wide mouth, and a long beard under his chin walked in.
"May I ask who is Ning Zu'er Ning Gongzi?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile on his round face.
"I am," Ning Zu'er looked him up and down, "May I ask who Your Excellency is ......?"
"The villain's surname is Xu, and he is the shopkeeper here." The middle-aged man's body bowed down a little more.
"Oh, it turned out to be Shopkeeper Xu, what do you have to teach you in person?" Ning Zuer reached out and pinched the money bag on her waist and asked.
"Don't dare, the villain just came over and asked, is this dish and wine still to your taste?" The middle-aged man said respectfully.
"Well, the food is good, and the wine is good." Ning Zuer said in a letter, but muttered in his heart, this shopkeeper Xu is too enthusiastic, come over in person to ask for warmth, is it because I am afraid that I will not be able to repay the debt?
Just thinking about it, the shopkeeper Xu smiled and asked again: "Then are the guys in my store slacking?" ”
"No, they ...... All very welcoming! Hearing his question, Ning Zuer was even more confused.
"That's good, that's good......" Shopkeeper Xu nodded again and again, and instructed a few shop guys who came with him, "Go, help Ning Gongzi put the packed dishes up, and Yu Jiu ......" He said to a tall and thin guy: "Hurry up and hire a car at the door, so that you can send Ning Gongzi and them back." ”
"What?" Ning Zuer said in her heart that the shopkeeper Xu was too enthusiastic, and he also helped the guests hire a car, and immediately opened his mouth and said: "Shopkeeper Xu, you are too polite, I haven't paid the money yet......"
"Where did Ning Gongzi say," Shopkeeper Xu saw him reach out to his waist and touch, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop, "You went to the small shop to eat, the villain is deeply honored, where can I ask you to pay for it, isn't this a slap in the face of the villain?" Never, never, never......"
Ning Zuer was stunned, and she didn't know why for a while.
"Xu's shopkeeper," Zhu Zhiqing walked over with a smile and said, "You are a businessman, you don't charge money for dinner, and you also help guests hire cars. . .
....", he lowered his voice and asked, "Did you do this because you were afraid of him?" ”
"Childe is Ning Gongzi's friend, right?" Shopkeeper Xu glanced at him and said, "Don't hide it, the villain is also a person who manages the accounts at the counter, all of this is the order of Miss Ning, and the villain is just ordered to act." ”
"Miss Ning?" Zhu Zhiqing glanced at Ning Zu'er, and said in her heart that this Ning girl really has a lot to do with you! You're still hiding that from me......
......
"Does Yang Muyun live in this alley?" The carriage stopped at the mouth of a narrow alley, it was dark inside, without a trace of light, Zhu Zhiqing looked outside, then looked at Ning Zuer and asked.
"This alley is called Baoxiang Hutong, and at the end of it is where Yang Muyun lives." Ning Zuer jumped off the car and said to Zhu Zhiqing: "The road inside is narrow, and the carriage is not easy to turn around, so let's go on foot!" ”
"This Yang Muyun, how did he place his residence here?" Zhu Zhiqing said secretly, and turned to Minyu and said, "Let's go, see if the place where he lives is to your liking?" ”
Minyu Yuyu turned red, got out of the carriage and hung her head and followed behind the two.
The three of them walked a few steps into the alley, and Ning Zuer couldn't stop looking at Zhu Zhiqing and then at Minyu, looking like she wanted to speak and stopped.
"Do you have anything to say?" Zhu Zhiqing stared at him and said, "If you want to say it, why do you look sneaky?" ”
"Actually......" Ning Zuer snorted, "Actually, Brother Yang didn't live there alone......"
Before he finished speaking, Zhu Zhiqing immediately understood what he meant, and sneered, "You want to say that he already has a woman, right?" ”
Ning Zuer smiled and didn't answer, but the answers were already written on his face.
"You men," Zhu Zhiqing snorted, "It's all the same, seeing one loving the other, treating us women as playthings, and once the novelty passes, they will be put aside and ignored." Turning his face to look at Minyu, "This is the man you've been thinking about, you've been thinking about him, but he's staying with other women, do you still want to see where he lives?" ”
Minyu lowered her head and was silent, biting her lip lightly, and her steps did not slow down because of Zhu Zhiqing's words.
"Okay," Zhu Zhiqing sighed, "I knew that if you didn't see him, you would never be able to let go of this heart." Then he stared at her deeply and said: "If that woman dares to bully you, the county lord will never spare her, and the people from our Zhou Wangfu can't be looked down on no matter where they go." ”
Minyu's petite and delicate body shook slightly, and she turned her head sideways to meet Zhu Zhiqing's gaze, and said with a trace of gratitude in her eyes: "County Lord, I ......"
"You don't have to say anything," Zhu Zhiqing said: "I don't blame you for liking him, we only have the opportunity to like a man as women, and men can have the power to like many women, this is the sadness of all our women......" He glanced at Ning Zu'er and saw him glancing to the side, so he continued: "You don't think about the women around him, you need to know why you are here, you just need to let him know that you like him." ”
......
Dai Yu still stayed in this small courtyard, Zhou Mengnan once persuaded herself to go with her, to help her take care of a few shops with good business, but she rejected the eldest lady, because she just wanted to stay here quietly, and wait for the man she thought of as coming back, that was her spiritual sustenance, and she thought that the man would definitely come back here.
"Tuk Tuk" came knocking on the door, she was writing in the room, and immediately put down the Zihao in her hand when she heard the sound.
"Is the adult back?" She was apprehensive for a while, and when she walked to the door, she carefully asked through the door panel, "Who is it?" ”
"It's me, Ning Zu'er." A clear voice outside said.
"It's Ning Gongzi." Dai Yu breathed a sigh of relief, a little disappointed in her heart, reached out and pulled open the latch, and opened the courtyard door with a "squeak".
Through the hazy moonlight, she found that there were three people standing at the door, the first one was Ning Zuer, and behind him stood a son wearing a Tang scarf and a moon-white robe, with an elegant and handsome appearance, and the boy was accompanied by an extremely handsome scholar.
