Chapter 57
Ye Shixiang didn't wear a veil, she saw me, although Erniang was curious why I had to look for Ye Shixiang every time, but she didn't ask more, after all, money had blocked her mouth.
"Encounter...... How long are we going to stay with the girl? One of them asked.
I grabbed the pastry on the table and said, "I don't know, can't you listen to such a beautiful piano sound?" ”
Another catcher quickly said: "No, I met the girl, it's just ...... How can a headhunter come to such a place? ”
"I know, since you don't usually come often, I'll bring you here."
The two catchers glanced at each other, expressing helplessness. I pretended not to see it, smiled, and continued listening.
It's just that the sound of the piano is getting more and more chaotic, and I looked at Ye Shixiang's seemingly uncertain appearance, and I became puzzled. She couldn't have been upset because of me, and sure enough, it didn't take long for me to see the back of a man, who walked towards her and shouted unscrupulously, "Why is Shika only playing in one direction today?" How much am I not giving enough money? ”
He turned around and looked at the second floor where I was, heh, sure enough, Xuan Kai, this kind of thing is only he can do.
I continued to watch, not avoiding his gaze. Xuan Kai saw me and raised the corners of his mouth, as if he was laughing and cursing. He didn't pester Ye Shixiang anymore, but slowly went upstairs. When he walked to the door of my private room, I asked Yu Kuai to open the door, but I didn't get up, just looked at him with a smile and said, "What kind of wind blew Xuan Gongzi here?" ”
"The scent on you, of course."
I almost didn't throw it up, this Xuan Kai is not Mrs. Xuan's own child, and he really doesn't teach at all. Has Mrs. Xuan forgotten that Xuan Kai is also from Xuan Mansion? Or is that what he is?
But what haven't I seen? It's just that no one dares to talk to me like that, Xuankai is still the first, but I will also make him the last.
"I have been stained with blood all year round, how could I attract a powerful person like Master Xuan?"
Xuan Kai smiled, as if there was some surprise that I was not frightened by his flirtatious language. But he also knew who I was, so he didn't continue, but talked about Ye Shixiang again: "It turned out that Miss Yu bought Miss Ye's piano, how dare I fight with the Liupin official." ”
"Xuan Gongzi is the official of the third grade, don't tease me anymore."
How do you know that Xuan Kai's complexion changed, and he smiled forcefully: "How can I meet a girl who is a once-in-a-century talent, and my Xuan is just stained with my father's light." ”
You know that, too. I didn't say anything more, and gave an eviction order: "I'm really sorry, Master Xuan, I just want to listen to the piano alone today, and I spent a lot of money on this private room, so it's better for you to ......."
"I want to know who wants you dead."
Xuan Kai interrupted me, making me a little impatient.
"If it weren't for Master Xuan, there would be nothing to say." I'm still smiling.
Xuan Kai's face stiffened, and he said with a smile: "Of course it's not me, how dare I kill someone the emperor values." ”
I didn't speak, the two catchers were also a little irritable, Xuan Kai arched his hand and said goodbye, I stared at him and walked next to Ye Shixiang, he glanced at me, as if he didn't dare to talk to Ye Shixiang again, anyway, I have time, it doesn't hurt to stare at him.
It wasn't until Xuankai left that I finally relaxed a little. Now although my injuries have not fully recovered, their skills are still not bad, and those two catchers dare not persuade me to go, and they also accompany me. In the evening, I finally felt a little tired, and after a few bites of food, I was ready to leave. Ye Shixiang has also been playing the piano today, and after Xuan Kai left, her piano sound has not been chaotic anymore.
When I went downstairs, she walked up to me, bowed to me, and said, "Thank you, girl." ”
"What you're talking about, I don't understand. Let's go. ”
Ye Shixiang kept her head down in my direction, and I walked out quickly with the two catchers.
But when I returned to the Yamen, I wasn't so happy, after all, whoever saw Xuan Lone's black face would run away as soon as possible.
So there were only two people left in the room, me and Xuan Lone, and I pretended not to see his black face, and sat down at the table to pour tea.
Xuan Lin still stared at me with a dark face. "Why did you go to Wanbao Tower again?"
"I'll pay you back after using some of your money." I didn't answer the question.
"Who cares about that money? I ask you why you went to Wanbao House again? ”
"If you want to go, you can go."
Xuan was silent, I knew he was in a bad mood, but it wasn't just because I went to Wanbao Tower.
He sat down across from me and drank his tea. I said, "Don't be sleepless at night. ”
"You don't care if I can sleep, you might as well care about my marriage."
I said flatly, "Didn't someone worry about your marriage for you?" ”
Xuan Lin slammed the teacup on the table, stared at me, and said, "I don't want anyone else to worry about it." ”
"Can you still not listen to Mrs. Xuan?"
Xuan Shi didn't speak. After a while, he sighed and said, "My mother is very sick, and in a few days, she wants to see me and Lin Lan get married." ”
Expected. But Xuan Lin still seemed to be unwilling, and said: "I promised my mother to be engaged to Lin Lan." But you don't have to be married if you want to ......"
"I don't want to. You'd better do what your mother wants. It's just that you get married, and you can also marry three wives and four concubines in the future, anyway, you were originally the son of Xuanfu, and marrying a few women is just a few more clothes. ”
"Say no more!" Xuan Xiao clenched his fists in pain and closed his eyes, "I just want to marry a woman, that person is you, I know you don't believe in me and don't want to accept me, but I know that you have me in your heart, don't you don't admit it!" ”
I didn't speak, and listened to him continue. "Don't worry, I will definitely let my mother accept you, if she can't accept it, I won't marry Lin Lan! The engagement is just a temporary peace of mind for my mother, and I only hope that I can still make her happy while she is alive. ”
"You don't have to say more, I know it all."
"What do you understand? You don't understand! If you understand, you won't let me get engaged to Lin Lan at all! You say it, don't want me to get engaged, I will immediately reject my mother! ”
"Since you have already agreed, how can there be any reason to refuse." I covered the teapot and said with a smile, "If you can make Mrs. Xuan happy, it's all worth it." ”
"Meet the stars!"
Xuan Xiao grabbed my hand, I wanted to push him away, but I had no choice, so I had to raise the teacup with my other hand and said, "Master Xuan is already a person who is going to get married, why bother to entangle with me as a nobody." I first wish Xuan Gongzi and Miss Lin harmony after marriage, and they will stay together. ”
"I don't accept it! I don't want your blessing! ”
Xuan Xiao knocked off my teacup, I took the opportunity to shake off his hand, still smiling, and said tiredly: "Go to bed early, Master Xuan, I have to sleep well to recuperate, otherwise I won't be able to pass the test given by the emperor, how can I be a brocade guard and arrest people with you." ”
Xuan was stunned, but there was still bottomless despair in his eyes. I ignored him, lay down in bed, and soon fell asleep.
When I woke up the next day, Xuan Silence was no longer there, remembering the events of the previous night, my heart felt like I was hurting and tearing at that time, and it took a long time to calm down a little, I got up and washed, looking at the teacup that was broken last night, I told myself in my heart that it was all over! He is not your person in the first place, so why keep him!
I packed my things and suddenly found the pale yellow dress, which should have been brought back by Muyang, Xuan Lin hadn't seen me wear it yet, when it came to his wedding banquet, what should I wear?
Forget it, what do you want to do with this? Where am I going now? Are you looking for the emperor for a task? Since you want a task, you must find Muyang first.
I brought all my clothes, and when I went out, the two catchers from yesterday stopped me again, "Meet the girl......
"What?" I looked back at the two of them, and the two catchers seemed to have something unspeakable, and hesitated for a while before saying, "Xuan Catcher said, the silver ticket in the house is for you." ”
"You tell him, I don't need to."
I turned my head to leave, and the two shouted, "Meet the girl! ”
I stopped, "I'm done." ”
"Xuan Zhutou said, you'd better go back to Changfu."
"I see. What else? ”
Another catcher gave me a square box and said, "We don't know what it is, but he said, it doesn't matter if you don't take anything else, if you don't take this, you will punish us." ”
I took the box and asked, "Are you okay this time?" ”
"Nope."
"Thank you, I'm leaving."
"Goodbye girl." The two said in unison.
I walked out of the yamen and went straight to Changfu.
Mrs. Chang is still the same as before, but she said that Zhang Simei gave birth to a child, she is a girl, looking at Mrs. Chang as if she was very happy, I am also happy for her, although it is not her own child, but as long as the master is happy, Mrs. Chang will be happy. Besides, Zhang Simei is not a difficult person, and Mrs. Chang will definitely care for Zhang Simei's children as much as her own children.
Seeing that Mrs. Chang has become accustomed to life without me, I feel happy and sad at the same time. Happy because Mrs. Chang is living a good life now, although she still has no children, it does not affect her normal life very much. It's sad because the value of my existence in my eyes seems to be gone, as if I have never appeared in Changfu, and no one will remember me.
Coming out of Changfu, I suddenly didn't know where to find Muyang.
A cabin in the suburbs? There's a good chance he's running errands, and I'll probably be in vain when I go, and I've forgotten where his original home was.
But just as I hesitated, I suddenly felt someone stop behind me. I turned around, and Mu Yang smiled at me, "Who are you waiting for?" ”
"I'm waiting for you," I smacked him, "and I'm worried that I'm not sure where to find you." ”
"What do you want me to do? Pick up a task? ”
"yes," I nodded, patted my body, and said, "It's all back now!" ”
"I don't believe that you can recover in more than a month after your injuries are so bad. You can accompany me to dinner first, and I'll talk to you slowly. ”
Although it was almost noon, I didn't want to eat at all, I just wanted to drink to drown my sorrows. Seeing that Muyang had no intention of drinking, I could only watch him eat.
"How much money do you have left?"
"Nope."
"Okay, fortunately, I already expected it," Muyang put down his chopsticks, took out a few ingots of silver from his arms, and said, "You go down and call the bar." ”
"Do you want to drink?"
"I don't drink, and I have to check people in the afternoon."
After taking the wine upstairs, I sighed, "I think you have taken care of all the affairs of the ministry." ”
"That's not it, there are too many officials, big and small, and if you are not careful, someone will be corrupt or take care of things, even if I am an official of the ministry, the above still has to be investigated."
I just drank and lay on my side, like a bum.
"Xuan Lin didn't give you any money?" Muyang asked.
"I didn't take it."
"It's rare to see you don't see money."
"I just wanted to draw a line with him."
"What's wrong again?"
I put down the wine cup, stared at Mu Yang's eyes, and said, "He's going to get engaged to Lin Lan." ”
