Chapter 239: Encountering Wine and Anlan
The woman wears a long skirt with a white background and black lines, and her delicate robe intersects with her beautiful face, which always seems to exude a dazzling brilliance.
At the age of twenty-four, she has experienced too many vicissitudes of the world, which has made her see too many people separated from each other and the decision to part with life and death. However, she still looks very young, and is still regarded by passers-by as a little girl under twenty years old.
This "little girl" is naturally jade dyeing.
At this moment, Tamarin was leisurely walking out of a shop, and then witnessed an "interesting" thing.
"Hey, there's a thiefβ"
"It's him, my money bag is on him, it's this man!"
There was a chaotic noise, and it was a young man surrounded by a group of people in the center, looking at the circle of people around him with inexplicable eyes, and he was holding a money bag with a red pattern of foundation in his hand.
"This son, looking at your dignified appearance, how can you steal people's things casually?" A middle-aged woman reached out angrily and pulled the money bag in the young man's hand, then put one hand on her waist and pointed at him with the other.
"It's just that, I've never seen anyone like this."
"It's so undeserved, I actually robbed people's money bags in broad daylight!"
The young man, who was still a little confused, finally reacted after listening to the words of the people around him, he raised his eyebrows, looked incredulous, and then said angrily: "What nonsense are you all talking about? How could Ben Gongzi do such an unseemly thing as stealing someone's money bag? This money bag was dropped by someone who hit me just now, I just picked it up, why do you all accuse me of stealing people's things! β
Tamazen's gaze was thorough, and she tilted her head to look at the young man who was surrounded by a crowd. The young man was dressed in a cyan robe, the belt around his waist was an ink-bottomed emerald pattern, and the needles and threads were extremely fine, and looking at his face, he could be regarded as a handsome and agile son, who should not be an ordinary person.
The young man's expression was anxious, but no one around him believed him, and they were all aggressive, so what should he do? He can't argue!
"He didn't steal it."
Suddenly, a voice fell in his ears, and his eyes lit up.
Who is it? Such a visionary!
His gaze looked around, and finally fell on the woman who had walked not far in his direction.
"Girl, are you telling the truth?" Someone asked aloud.
Hearing this, Yu Ran smiled slightly, and said very sincerely: "It's true, I did see that there was another person who snatched the money bag from Madame's hand, not him." Therefore, it should be the same as what he said, it was the one who stole the silver taels who ran in a hurry, but instead hit someone, and even lost the silver taels. Fortunately, this prince kindly picked up the money bag, otherwise the lady's silver would have really been lost. Speaking of which, Madame should also be grateful to this son. β
The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, then her face was embarrassed, she thanked the young man in a curt, apologized, and then walked away without looking back.
And the people around also left one after another because of the resolution of the matter. The only people who stayed in place for a while were Yuran and the young man.
"Hey, thank you so much just now! If you hadn't seen it, I wouldn't have been able to wash it up. The young man stroked his hair and smiled heartily. His gaze fell on the woman's cheek, and at first glance he felt that the woman in front of him was really beautiful, and at the second glance, he felt that the woman seemed to be a little familiar.
"I didn't see it." Yu Ran suddenly said loudly.
"Ah, what did you say?" Only then did the young man come to his senses.
Tamarin patiently repeated again, "I said, I didn't actually see it. By the time I walked out of the store, you were surrounded by the crowd. β
The young man stood beside Tamama, and the two walked slowly aimlessly.
"Wouldn't it? Then why do you still want to speak for me, don't you also think that I stole that person's money bag? The man was astonished, and the expression on his face was also very colorful at the same time.
Yu Ran chuckled, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "I steal someone's money bag and hold it in my hand openly for everyone to admire, I don't think this is what a 'competent' thief can do." Moreover, this jade pendant on your waist alone is estimated to be worth dozens of bags of silver taels in that lady's hand, right? If you were to tell me that you were really the one who stole the money bag, then the jade pendant around your waist, the clothes you wore on your body, the crown of hair on your head, everything was stolen? β
"How is that possible?" The man shouted in a low voice, and then subconsciously covered the jade pendant on his waist, and then glanced at the jade pendant with a rather precious eye, and said to the jade dye: "This piece of jade is a good treasure that I rarely saw, how can it be stolen from the pattern that was just carved by someone." β
"Really? Then I don't have much to say. Tamarin shrugged, looking unconcerned.
The man's demeanor returned to normal, he held his chin with one hand, then turned his head to look at the woman carefully for a while, and then he suddenly stopped, slammed his right fist in the palm of his left hand, and said mysteriously to Yuran: "Oh, I know! β
"What do you know?" Yu Ran also stopped, and a little surprise appeared in the phoenix's eyes.
The man grinned, looking extremely happy that he had cracked some secret, he pointed at the jade dye and said confidently, "I finally remembered who you are!" You're from the Xiahou clan, aren't you? I happened to pass by the mansion of the new Tenbai Castle Keeper that day, and I saw him help you out of the carriage. You--Could it be the wife of the Xiahou clan? β
Yu Ran really didn't expect this person's eyesight and memory to be so good, and he could see and record her appearance from a distance, you must know that the guards outside the mansion were so strict that they stopped the ordinary people quite far away.
"I'm not." Yuran shook his head.
"You're not?" The man was a little surprised, then thought about it carefully, and said with a smile again: "Oh, then I know. That Xiahou clan sat in the same carriage with you, and personally helped you out of the carriage. He values you so much, since you are not his wife, you must be his sister or something, anyway, you must also be from the Xiahou clan, right? β
Yuran stared at the man in silence for a moment, she really didn't know how to describe her current mood.
She just looked at the man's embarrassed appearance and was a little funny, so she went over to help him by the way, but she really didn't expect the man to be such a person, how could anyone talk so happily by herself? She just wanted to walk on the main street of Tianbai City by herself, but this man actually followed her all the way.
However, in the face of the man's speculation, after thinking about it, Yu Ran felt that he couldn't tell others his real name anyway, so he simply responded, "Yes, I am from the Xiahou clan." β
"I guessed right, what's your name? I think you're a very special girl, and it doesn't seem to be the same as the girls I used to know. You've done me a great favor this time, and I think I'm quite close to you. The man grinned and said with a big smile.
Congenial? How did this fall in love?
Yu Ran was puzzled, did this person feel like he was in love with everyone when he looked at it?
It doesn't matter what he thinks in his heart, but Yu Ran still calmed down, and then opened his lips and said, "My name is Xiahou Yu." β
"Xiahou...... Jade, Xiahou Yu, that's a good name! The man pronounced the new name of Yuran twice, and then his eyes lit up, and he praised it heartily.
Yuran's expression did not change, "Thank you." β
"By the way, I asked for your name, I haven't said my name yet! My name is Wine Anlan, there is wine today and drunk wine today, Ann who is peaceful, and Lan who is magnificent. Hehe, isn't that a good name too? Jiu Anlan asked with a grin.
"Jiu Anlan?" When Yu Ran heard this, he was stunned. Let's not mention the surname wine, just look at the word Anlan at the back, it seems that she has a little familiar feeling for some reason, she always feels as if she has seen or heard the name "Anlan" before.
"That's right." Jiu Anlan nodded.
Yu Ran groaned for a while, and finally suddenly raised his eyebrows slightly: "An Lan...... It's a bit of a woman's name. β
Jiu Anlan originally looked high-spirited, but just as Yuran's voice fell, his entire handsome face collapsed, "Won't it?" Why do you say that? Where does this name resemble a woman's name, it's obviously very chivalrous, right? β
Yuran's willow eyebrows were almost twisted together, her phoenix eyes widened, and she looked at him a little strangely, "Jianghu knight? β
"Yes, I just want to be a hero! Then I will be chivalrous and righteous, and let people admire me and worship me! Jiu Anlan held one hand in front of his chest, and said with an excited and sincere expression.
Yu Ran was silent for a while, and then raised his eyes with a smile, "So you can't do chivalry, but you have become a thief in other people's mouths?" β
"It was an accident, who knew that the thief would suddenly hit me and drop something next to me!" Jiu Anlan crossed his arms to his chest and said with some complaint. After a pause, he asked, "The ...... Where are you going next? Are you ready to go back to Xiahou Mansion? β
"Xiahou Mansion? I'm not going back. Tamazye's eyes were dark and translucent, and her smile was very calm.
"Huh? You're not going back? Jiu Anlan was a little surprised, "But aren't you the young lady of Xiahou Mansion?" β
"I'm just sending Xiahou Yang over, as for where I want to go next, that's my business." Yu Ran hooked the corners of her lips, and unexpectedly felt that she was in a good mood.
