15. Blind
……
"It's done, ......"
When Liu Ce stepped on the ladder and hung the last curtain, he showed a satisfied expression, looking at the bright window where the sun had set in the west, he couldn't help but shake his head, the afternoon's efforts were finally in vain.
Just as he climbed down the ladder and turned around to clean up the sawdust that was everywhere in the attic and paint the corners of the window frames, he couldn't help but be stunned.
I saw a beautiful white shadow at the entrance of the attic, who else was Jiang Ruoyan?
Jiang Ruoyan looked at Liu Ce blankly, with a trace of indescribable emotion in her eyes.
Liu Ce took off his glasses, took off his mask, exhaled, bowed to Jiang Ruoyan, and said with a smile: "Miss Jiang, are you back?" I was courteous under it. ”
Jiang Ruoyan just looked at Liu Ce like this, seeing that Liu Ce was courteous to himself, but he didn't react. Before I came, I had countless things I wanted to say to him in my heart, but now that I see Liu Ce, I don't know where to start.
"Miss Jiang?" Liu Ce saw that Jiang Ruoyan didn't react, and said lightly, "Are you blaming you for making a mess of your boudoir?" Don't worry, we'll clean it up later. ”
Jiang Ruoyan reacted at this time, owed a blessing, and said to Liu Ce: "Liu Gongzi, Ruoyan is polite. ”
Liu Ce could only salute again and said: "In the past, I made Miss Jiang's Heyang Tower a black miasma, and what I did today is just to make up for the rudeness I committed that day, and please don't dislike Miss Jiang." ”
Jiang Ruoyan looked at her with a light jaw, nodded slightly, stepped into the boudoir with jade steps, and slowly walked towards Liu Ce.
Seeing her approaching, Liu Ce took two steps back slightly and said, "Miss Jiang, you might as well wait until tomorrow to come back, there are still some small things to clean up, you ......"
"Did you do it?" Jiang Ruoyan interrupted Liu Ce's words and came to a moving window and asked.
Liu Ce nodded: "There's no way, ordinary people in Miss Jiang's boudoir can't enter, so they have to use the pendant given by Miss Jiang in the past to get in, so I have to do it myself......"
Jiang Ruoyan looked at the bright glass, and seemed to be able to print his own reflection, and at the same time felt a little guilty about Liu Ce.
After a while, Jiang Ruoyan said again: "Liu Gongzi is not only strong in marching and fighting, but he doesn't want to have such craftsman skills, which really impresses Ruoyan." ”
Liu Ce shook his head and said: "Miss Jiang's words are serious, but my clumsy skills are not enough to worry about, I hope Miss You can like these windows, if there is any rudeness, please bear with me." ”
Jiang Ruoyan looked out of the window for a while, her eyes were blurred, and she said softly: "I like it, of course I like it......"
Liu Ce didn't understand the meaning of her words, but when he saw the glass for the first time, he felt fresh, and said, "In that case, then please Miss Jiang, take a few steps back, and let me finish the rest of the things?"
"Hmm......" Jiang Ruoyan left the windowsill when she heard this, trying to find a place to sit down, and suddenly found that although there were a lot of sawdust on the ground, they were all covered with white cloth, and said secretly: "How could he be so careful?"
Seeing this, Liu Ce didn't pay attention to it, put on his mask again, and dipped the adjusted tung paint with a wool brush to gently mend the corners of those wooden frames, very carefully.
Jiang Ruoyan just watched Liu Ce busy all the time, this man made him feel very different, especially when he was serious, she couldn't help but be fascinated.
"Hoo ......"
After Liu Ce finished painting, just as he was about to pour some more tung lacquer, he saw Jiang Ruoyan already standing beside him and handed him half a bowl of porcelain bowl of tung oil.
Liu Ce raised his eyes and looked, Jiang Ruoyan's fairy-like face was in such close contact for the first time, he only felt dizzy, he couldn't find the slightest fault, and couldn't help blushing, fortunately, he had a mask on his face and flat glasses on his eyes to avoid embarrassment.
"Thank you......" After Liu Ce took the bowl of tung lacquer, he thanked her and stopped looking at her, and continued to concentrate on what he should do.
Despite this, Jiang Ruoyan could still feel a slight change in Liu Ce, just because he took over the porcelain bowl with a slight flurry, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and said, "Thank you?" I'm the one who should be thanked......"
After hearing this, Liu Ce stopped talking and continued to focus on the work in his hands.
"That's it."
When the sun was about to set, Liu Ce finally put up the paint on the last window frame, and carefully observed it before nodding with satisfaction.
Jiang Ruoyan also got up and looked around at this time, feeling that her attic was more comfortable and more charming than before, and she couldn't help admiring Liu Celai.
"Gongzi Liu, thank you......" Jiang Ruoyan thanked Liu Ce extra sincerely.
Liu Ce smiled and said: "Miss Jiang, you and I are friends, this thank you word between friends will be avoided, if it is not early today, Miss should also go home, lest Lord Jiang be worried......"
Jiang Ruoyan said with a smile: "Daddy is now reuniting with his mother, and there are many endless things to say, so how can he remember me?" ”
Liu Ce said: "I don't want Lord Lingtang to go to Yuanzhou too, and I will visit when I have free time." ”
Jiang Ruoyan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Really? Why don't you take you to my mother now? ”
Liu Ce shook his head, pointed to his work clothes and said with a smile: "Miss Jiang, you look at me like this, is it appropriate?" Let's talk about that another day. ”
Jiang Ruoyan said: "It's okay, I'll take you to the silk village to pick out clothes, and then you can go to see my mother after freshening up, she ...... She's a nice person...... You don't have to worry about ......" said this, his face burning slightly.
Liu Ce hurriedly said: "No need, in fact, there are still important things to do today, and several of my subordinates need me to take care of them when they are wandering around the city, so as not to make trouble and lose their dignity." ”
Jiang Ruoyan was disappointed when he heard this, but he quickly adjusted his state and said to Liu Ce: "Since this is the case, then Ruoyan is not strong, when will Liu Gongzi be free...... Huh?"
Speaking of this, Jiang Ruoyan suddenly thought that the day after tomorrow would be his father's birthday, and he would hold a banquet in advance tomorrow night to celebrate, what kind of righteous son would he receive? Why don't you let Liu Ce go to Jiang's Mansion tomorrow night? Won't his own mother be able to see him then?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly changed his words and said: "Liu Gongzi, tomorrow my father's birthday dinner, I don't know if I can come to congratulate my father on his birthday?"
"It's exactly what I want, I just listened to Jiang Xun's thoughts, and he doesn't care about that piece in Jizhou!"
Determined to make up his mind, Liu Ce said: "Since Miss Jiang invited, there is no reason to refuse, and I will be happy to go tomorrow night." ”
Jiang Ruoyan saw that Liu Ce did not refuse, and was overjoyed in his heart: "Okay, tomorrow night Ruoyan is waiting for the big driver in the Governor's Palace, please don't miss the appointment." ”
Liu Ce arched his hand and said: "Miss Jiang, don't worry, you will always do what you say in the future, and you will go to congratulate the Governor on his birthday banquet!" ”
Jiang Ruoyan nodded, her beautiful eyes flashed a few times, and then said to Liu Ce: "It's getting late, why don't you go downstairs with Ruoyan?" ”
Liu Ce said: "Miss Jiang, please go first, and after cleaning up these things on the ground, you will leave." ”
Jiang Ruoyan said: "Since this is the case, then Ruoyan will help Liu Gongzi clean up the ...... together."
Liu Ce stopped her and said, "Miss, stay on the side for a while, it will be cleaned up soon." ”
When Jiang Ruoyan heard this, she nodded, she knew that she was really not good at housework, and she had hardly touched those since she was a child, so she might help if she stepped forward rashly.
After Liu Ce and Jiang Ruoyan came out of Heyang Tower, it was already the time to hold the lamp, and after each of them made a gentleman's salute, they said goodbye to each other and agreed to see each other at the dinner tomorrow night.
……
On the fourth day of February, the Jiang family's convoy that had traveled all the way finally arrived in Yuanzhou City.
"This is the Yuanzhou City under my father's rule? It's magnificent, hahaha......"
Chen Wei poked out of the curtain of the car and saw the bustling street, and couldn't help laughing, as if he felt that he would be the owner of this place in the future.
When he saw some beautiful girls in the bustling crowd on the road, Yingying Yanyan walked by, his eyes showed a beast-like gaze, and he couldn't wait to immediately pounce on them and take them all into his arms.
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, there will be opportunities in the future......"
Holding back his restless mood, Chen Wei swallowed his saliva and couldn't help comforting himself, anyway, it's not too late to do it when he recognizes Jiang Xun as his father-in-law.
When Zifeng and the housekeeper saw this scene, they just sighed in their hearts: "The fourth prince is outcast, lacking in education, it seems that it will inevitably take a lot of effort for the master to discipline him in the future......"
"Wei'er, sit down......"
When Chen's father saw Chen Wei's appearance, he couldn't help but scold him and wanted to drag him back into the car. This child has been too spoiled by him since he was a child, and his lack of discipline has caused him to have such a scoundrel personality.
Chen Wei shook off Chen's father's outstretched hand and said disdainfully: "Let go of your dirty hands, my identity is different now, master, how can you touch it casually?" ”
"Stinky boy, you ......" Father Chen couldn't help but be angry when he heard this, and raised his hand to give him a slap.
At this moment, the housekeeper glared at Father Chen and said angrily: "Don't be rude to your son!" ”
Chen's father was frightened and hurriedly retracted his hand, and Chen's mother also grabbed Chen's father's sleeve and begged for mercy to the housekeeper.
Chen Wei snorted coldly: "Hmph, housekeeper, you really shouldn't have brought these two old things together, it's really embarrassing, and it's embarrassing to lose the face of our Jiang family......"
The housekeeper bowed down and said, "Childe, this is what the master ordered, the old slave doesn't dare to disobey!" Please keep your son in check for the time being, and it's not too late to wait until you see the master. ”
When Chen Wei saw that the housekeeper said this, it was not easy to make any more trouble, after all, this old housekeeper was obedient to himself, he relied on himself for everything along the way, and he spent a lot of money to squander it, such a person still can't be offended.
The housekeeper saw that Chen Wei was a little more restrained, and sighed in his heart that he had come all the way, because these four sons were very unhappy with many nobles, and they would have to find an opportunity to mend the relationship in the future.
Now that the fourth son has made a fuss, many officials also have complaints about the Jiang family, they don't understand, even Jiang Xun's righteous son shouldn't be so reckless, which of Jiang Xun's children is not polite and thoughtful, and the advance and retreat are orderly? How could Jiang Xun accept such a thing as a righteous son? Could it be that Governor Jiang feels that life is too comfortable and wants to have a unique life?
Until someone said: "If you really want to do this, instead of looking for such a scum thing, why doesn't Governor Jiang accept that Liu Ce as his son?" That's really different! ”
At other times, everyone thinks this is a big joke, but after Chen Wei's toss, many people agree with it.
This Liu Ce did something more thrilling than a thing, but he was still of good character, he had never been seen in Fengyue place, and he was able to write and martial arts, although he was a Shu clan, he was more courageous than the sons of most scholars. Jiang Xun really wants to pick a righteous son in the Shu clan, and he doesn't want Liu Ce in front of him, but he goes to find a scoundrel? Could it be that he is blind......
