Chapter 29: Miss Su (3)
"He'...... It's a little different from those men......
Miss Su was not angry because Zhao Hongrun touched her hair without her permission, because she felt that the other party's eyes were not lewd, although they were eager, but they were not at all like those men who wanted to strip her whole body of clothes.
Zi said, chromophobia also.
The true meaning of this phrase is to say that it is human nature to want to see beautiful things. In the most popular terms, it is to evaluate a thing by its appearance.
For people, it is to judge people by their appearance.
However, lust is not lewdness, the root of lust is that "it can be viewed from a distance and cannot be played with blasphemy", beyond this line, it is no longer lust, but lewdness. It means being greedy, wanting to take possession of something completely, playing with it wantonly.
And although Zhao Hongrun's eyes were looking at her from beginning to end, he only regarded her as a beautiful thing, and purely held an attitude of appreciation, which was also the reason why Miss Su was not angry.
On the contrary, she was a little curious, wondering how this Jiang Gongzi seemed to have never seen a woman for more than ten years.
"Pour the wine."
“……”
"Pour the wine."
“……”
"Pour the wine."
“……”
After half a pillar of incense, the two did not communicate.
Zhao Hongrun only unilaterally admired the white jade-like beauty in front of him, and asked this beauty to pour wine on his behalf.
I have to say that the wine poured by Miss Su herself seems to have a unique taste.
But his actions made Miss Su a little crying and laughing.
"Hey, you're not done with it!"
The little girl Huan Lu'er couldn't help but pick it out and accuse: "My young lady has poured more than a dozen cups, you bad guy, what kind of person do you take our young lady?" ”
"......" Miss Su didn't speak, just looked at Zhao Hongrun.
It's not that she's angry, she just wonders why this Jiang Gongzi doesn't communicate with her at all, and from beginning to end he seems to treat her as an appreciation, although his eyes are lustful but not lewd, but this kind of cold beauty is still a little unacceptable.
"Am I just an ornament?"
Miss Su complained in her heart. You must know that the picture of the crane fluttering its wings and singing on the wall painted by Zhao Hongrun can be said to have touched her heartstrings, so even if Zhao Hongrun didn't really guess her mind, she couldn't help but want to know something about the Jiang Gongzi in front of her.
didn't expect that this Jiang Gongzi was too cold to be a beauty, admiring her beauty by himself, but not having any verbal communication with her.
"You're excessive, you know?"
Zhao Hongrun's words made Miss Su and Xiaoya Huanlu'er a little unbelievable, and they said in their hearts, who is this?
Although they have different ideas, whether it is Miss Su or Xiaoyahuan Lu'er, they are all made happy by Zhao Hongrun's words like a thief shouting to catch a thief.
"You guy, why do you say we're going too far? Miss is not a guy in the wine shop, why should she keep pouring you wine? Xiao Yahuan angrily accused.
"Because she lost."
"What's so good about your broken crane? Skinny as wood, he fell as soon as the wind blew...... My young lady is looking at your young age, so let you just let you. …… I'll pour you a cup, I didn't expect you to be so shameless, is it really my young lady a little girl in a restaurant? ”
Lu'er's words made Miss Su blush slightly, after all, anyone who has some attainments in painting skills can see that the crane painted by Zhao Hongrun is not on the same level as the crane she painted, and it is the difference between the crane and the crane at all.
Zhao Hongrun glanced at Miss Su, and saw that she was red and embarrassed, so he didn't say anything, and asked curiously, "Then what do you want?" ”
Lu'er tilted her head and looked at Zhao Hongrun for a while, and suddenly asked, "Hey, are you rich?" ”
"So straightforward?"
Zhao Hongrun was a little amused when he heard this: "It depends on how much you ask." ”
"Ten thousand taels of gold!" Lu'er said proudly: "If you have 10,000 taels of gold to redeem Miss, Miss can pour you a lifetime of wine...... But do you? ”
"Huh?" Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly.
Seeing his frowning movements, Miss Su was a little panicked for some reason, as if out of not wanting to be misunderstood by him, she reprimanded in a low voice: "Lu'er, don't talk nonsense!" ”
She bowed her head, feeling ashamed.
However, the little girl Huanlu'er didn't feel ashamed at all, and pouted: "Miss, what can't you say about this?" Who of the ladies in the building didn't think so? If you don't take advantage of the fact that you are still a clear child to find a suitable rich son as a home, are you really ready to stay like this for the rest of your life? ”
"I see......
Zhao Hongrun's heart suddenly changed.
But suddenly, he felt a little funny about Xiao Yahuan's sky-high asking price, 10,000 taels of gold, converted into more than 100,000 silver, right? Even if this Miss Su is made of gold, it's not worth the price, right?
"About one hundred and fifty taels of gold......," he muttered.
"Note: According to Zhao Hongrun's visual inspection here, this Su girl is about fifty catties (old catties), and even if it is cast in gold, it is only one hundred and forty-four taels of gold."
『??』
Hearing Zhao Hongrun say this, Miss Su and Lu'er both felt a little puzzled.
At this time, I saw Zhao Hongrun look Miss Su up and down a few times, and explained thoughtfully: "I mean...... Miss Su is about fifty catties, even if it is made of gold, it is only one hundred and fifty taels of gold...... It was converted to less than two thousand taels of silver. …… I can still get these two thousand taels of silver. ”
Indeed, two thousand taels of silver, which is probably Zhao Hongrun's four-month prince's monthly salary, is not too much, but not too much.
"Whew!"
Before Miss Su could react, Lu'er scolded angrily: "You are only worth two thousand taels!" Haven't you heard that beauty is priceless? A while ago, a rich boy wanted to pay 5,000 taels of silver to redeem his young lady, but the steward of the water pavilion didn't even look at it. ”
But speaking of which, she also had a slight change in her opinion of Zhao Hongrun, after all, Zhao Hongrun's attitude was very casual when he mentioned two thousand taels of silver, which meant that the other party's family background might not be as she had guessed before.
"But no matter what, 10,000 taels of gold is still too exaggerated, right? …… I don't know how much silver Miss Su owes to this side of the water pavilion? ”
"Huh? Is that what it means to redeem me?'
Miss Su was stunned when she heard this, looked up at Zhao Hongrun, and the more she looked at his immature face, the more awkward she felt.
He was fourteen, she was twenty, and he seemed to be planning to redeem her at twenty, which felt quite awkward no matter how you looked at it.
After all, in Miss Su's opinion, this fourteen-year-old Jiang Gongzi is just a child, can his words be counted? "Note: In ancient times, the nobles had twenty weak crowns, and the sons of the common people became fifteen families."
But looking at Zhao Hongrun's serious eyes, she clearly told herself not to take it seriously, and her heart was still a little pounding.
"This ...... The slave family didn't know the specifics, so they had to ask the steward in the building......"
She bowed her head and blushed cheeks.
"Well, that's ......" Zhao Hongrun frowned and thought for a while: "Go and ask." …… If you are doing what you can, you should do your part. ”
He knew that women like this who were unfortunate enough to fall here, they would hardly owe much money when they were sold to the Qinglou, and the problem was that when it came time to redeem them, if the Qinglou couldn't make a big profit, they would definitely bite to the death. That's the key.
Of course, as for how to settle this Su girl after ransom her, this is also a problem, you can't secretly hide her in Wenzhao Pavilion, right? If this is found out, the consequences can be many serious.
But if you don't care about it......
Zhao Hongrun looked at the woman in front of him with his eyes, and he couldn't help but be a little tempted, after all, such a gentle and quiet woman has always been the type he admires.
"Oh......" Miss Su replied pretending to be calm, her heart pounding.
But even so, she didn't take it seriously in her heart, after all, what a fourteen-year-old child said was really lacking in trust.
It's not that he doubts the financial resources of the other party's family, after all, if he can say this kind of thing casually, almost all of them are sons from wealthy families, the problem is that even if he has the financial resources to redeem her, he may not be able to give her a good home.
Her age, her origin, it's all a problem.
Because of this, Miss Su didn't take it very seriously in her heart, but she just thought that this little boy was very interesting.
At this time, it was getting late, and it was already dusk, and Shen Yu, the sect guard who had not disturbed them from beginning to end, came over and whispered, "Childe, it's time for us to go back." ”
"Hmm."
Zhao Hongrun nodded, although he also felt a kind of reluctance to leave, but after all, the Great Wei Heavenly Son imposed a ban on him, if he didn't return to the palace at dusk, maybe the token in his hand would be confiscated.
"Miss Su, I'm going to say goodbye first. …… Lv Mu. ”
Zhao Hongrun got up and saluted Miss Su, and then called Zong Wei Lu Mu.
Lu Mu understood, took out those fifty taels of silver ingots from the package he carried, and lined them up neatly on the table, a full eight ingots.
Four hundred taels!
Lu'er's eyes widened in surprise, and it was hard to imagine that Zong Wei, who was dressed as an ordinary person, actually carried four hundred taels of silver with him.
But when Miss Su saw this scene, she was not very happy.
She bit her lip and whispered, "Jiang Gongzi, is this a cold slave?" ”
That was the first time she looked directly at Zhao Hongrun's gaze with unyielding eyes.
Zhao Hongrun seemed to see the stubbornness and humiliating self-esteem in her eyes, and knew that she had misunderstood, so she explained with a smile: "Didn't I say that you should do your best, you should keep these stewards to deal with this side of the water pavilion." …… Even if it is as white as a crane, there are times when you have to bow your head and peck in the mud for the sake of the preserved fruit. ”
『!!』
Miss Su trembled when she heard this, and looked at Zhao Hongrun's back as she turned around in disbelief, and her mood was difficult to calm down for a long time.
He ...... Guessed? ”
"Guess what?" Lu'er was happily packing up the ingots at this time, rubbing her face with the ingots with a look of fascination.
Miss Su ignored her little girl, but involuntarily looked at the painting painted by Zhao Hongrun on the wall, looking at the rising sun that accompanied the glow, and was in a daze.
After a long time, she sighed faintly.
"Cherish the late life of the king, six cold, summer, autumn and winter ......"
At the same time, in the vertical arch hall of the palace, the great eunuch Tong Xian was bowing his head and praying to the Son of Heaven.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness guessed that the old slave would send an inner prison to follow him, so that he ......"
"Lost?" The Great Wei Tianzi interrupted casually.
"Yes......" Tong Xian lowered his head.
"It's not surprising that the rebel would have guessed." The Son of Heaven said lightly: "Tomorrow, you can send more people, I want to know what he does every day when he leaves the palace." ”
"Yes."
