At the beginning of the unitary hour, after an afternoon of shopping, they finally returned to the racecourse with their rocks.

At that time, Piao'er was lying on the grass to rest, Lu Meng was still drunk and unconscious, and Fang Jue was taking care of Lu Meng in the wooden house.

The moment they stepped into the racecourse, Piao'er, who was lying on the grass and resting, suddenly stood up and hissed to meet them. Fang Jue heard a strange noise outside the house, so he walked out of the wooden house and went to check the situation.

Zhou Yu touched the shaker and said, "If the shaker is sold, what is the price that Mr. asks?" ”

"This ......"

Fang Jue pondered for a moment and said, "One million dollars." ”

"Poor ......"

Zhou Yu gasped and said, "Heh", "Mr.'s asking price seems to be higher." ”

"If Piao'er is sold, how much is it worth?"

As soon as Fang Heng's words fell, Zhou Yu immediately replied: "Piao'er is priceless, not for sale." ”

"The price of the sweat horse should be more than two million yuan," Fang Heng said, "The ability of the shaker is only slightly inferior to that of Piao'er, although it is not as precious as the sweat and blood horse, it can also be described as a thousand miles of horses." Therefore, the price of one million dollars, Fang Mou felt that it was not too much. ”

Zhou Yu really wanted to shake it, so he gritted his teeth and took out two gold bars, and said: "One million dollars, the value can be as low as 100 gold, these are two gold bars of fifty taels, sir, please accept them." ”

Fang Jue took the gold bar and said, "Give Gongzi a discount - take care of Piao'er's money, and Gongzi won't have to pay." ”

"There will be a date later."

After saying goodbye, Zhou Yu jumped off the rock, rode on the piao'er, and said, "It's getting late, you have to find an inn to stay in as soon as possible." ”

Xiao Qiao wanted him to stay closer to him, so he chose a good place to go, and said, "Mr. Deng's restaurant, in addition to meals, can also provide accommodation. It is a beautiful environment, elegant layout, and Mr. Deng knows you and me, which can be described as the best place to go. ”

"Very good, it's a great restaurant."

Zhou Yu agreed to her.

When they walked to the door of Qiao's house, Zhou Yu suddenly pulled the reins of Piao'er's horse. When Piao'er stopped, Zhou Yu jumped off its back.

"Phew!"

When Xiao Qiao saw that he stopped, he also pulled the reins of Shaker, causing Shaker to stop. She broke away from the stirrup with one foot, intending to dismount by herself, but she didn't want to be stopped by Zhou Yu "slowly", and said: "I said, as long as I am here, you don't have to get on and off the horse by yourself." ”

He was just about to hug Xiao Qiao, but was stopped by Xiao Qiao and said: "Forget it, this is Qiao's family, if you are bumped into by my eldest brother, I will trouble you again." ”

Zhou Yu lowered his head, hesitated for a moment, Fang Nian muttered, "It's okay", hugged Xiao Qiao, and said, "It's been half a day, if you don't go back, your father should be in a hurry." I know the restaurant, I can go there. ”

"Hmm."

She hugged Shaker and admonished: "Piao'er and Shaker are not in harmony, don't let Piao'er bully Shaker." ”

"Give me your hand."

He took the reins of Shao'er with his left hand, turned over Xiao Qiao's palm with his right hand, put the reins into her palm, and said, "Shuang'er has a relationship with it, and it should be taken care of by Shuang'er." ”

"Shake is too precious for me to bear."

Although Xiao Qiao shirked her words, there was a hint of joy in her eyebrows.

"Alas!"

Zhou Yu stared at Shao'er, smoothed its mane, and said, "Shuang'er doesn't want you, you have to suffer!" If Piao'er is seriously injured, I will feel very distressed. ”

"You wait." Little Joe stopped.

She lowered her head, thought for a moment, Fang raised her head, smiled knowingly, and said, "I take it, I take it." ”

"Well, that's it." Zhou Yu said.

At this moment, it is the right time, and the last rays of the sunset are about to dissipate on the ground level; The first cool breeze of the night is about to hit the streets. He saw that Xiao Qiao was dressed thinly, so he said with concern: "The sky is gradually changing, go in, don't catch a cold." ”

Zhou Yu should have taken out his clothes and draped them on Xiao Qiao's body with his own hands. But he came in a hurry, and he didn't have any clothes with him. The clothes on his body were even thinner than Xiao Qiao's.

"You wait for me, I'll come when I go."

Xiao Qiao left Zhou Yu behind and ran to the depths of Qiao's house alone.

"What does that mean?"

In front of the huge Qiao family, only Zhou Yu was left silently with confused eyes.

When I was young, I saw Xiao Qiao carrying a red and white cloak in his right hand, and his left hand on his slender waist, panting and walking quickly to the door.

She gasped for breath, then handed the white cloak to Zhou Yu and said, "Look at you, I don't know how many clothes to bring when I go out, I wear less than me, if I am sick, what can I do." ”

Zhou Yu put the white cloak on his wrist, picked up the red cloak in Xiao Qiao's hand, draped it on her with his own hands, and said, "I am so anxious, I don't know how to take care of myself first." ”

"If I'm a little slower, you'll have to wait a little longer."

As he spoke, Xiao Qiao also picked up the white cloak and draped it on Zhou Yu's body.

"Thank you for Frost's cloak."

"Well, how do you know the cloak is mine?"

Zhou Yu shook his cloak and said, "The cloak only reaches my calf, and it exudes a faint fragrance, it's not yours, could it be your father and brother?" ”

"Yes, this cloak is mine, I don't dare to alarm my family, so I have to give you my own cloak."

"Although this cloak is a little shorter, the color is what I like, and the faint fragrance it emits is also very good."

"Is that true?"

"There is no reason to be true."

"If you like it."

After a few small talks, Zhou Yu handed the reins of Shao'er to Xiao Qiao again, and said, "It's not early, let's go back." ”

"I'll watch you go, and when you're gone, I'll go in again."

"Well, I'll go first, you take care."

Zhou Yu couldn't resist her, so she had to ride Piao'er and leave first.

Before walking away, he couldn't help but look back and say, "I'll come back tomorrow to look for you." ”

"Well, I'll wait for you."

With an unconcealable smile, Xiao Qiao led Shao'er into the door of Qiao's house.

She took Shaker to the stables and told the groom, "It's called Shaker, and it's my mount." It is a good horse, and it should not be kept as an ordinary horse. ”

"Miss, don't worry."

The groom answered, took the rock, and she hurried back to the bedroom.

At the same time, Zhou Yu has also stayed in the first-class rooms of the Fei Ran Restaurant. He had barely slept for two days, and after dinner, he lay down on the bed early—he didn't even take off his clothes.

"You kid, where have you gone, wouldn't it be better to stay late and stay home for a night. I couldn't read a single book all day......"

He had slept for less than an hour when he was woken up by a noise outside the door.

He opened the door and searched for it when he heard the sound, and then saw that in the study, Lu Meng was kneeling in front of Deng Dang, listening to Deng Dang's lecture: "I am full of wine, and I will only return now!" You kid, you don't want to study, you just know how to have fun, it's really hopeless! ”

Lu Meng looked aggrieved and muttered in a low voice: "I was drunk, and I was drunk in the eastern suburbs of the racecourse this afternoon. If you want to blame, go to the man who poured me wine, and you will be angry with me. ”

Deng Dang glanced at Lu Meng and said, "If you have something to say, don't be sneaky!" ”

"Just say it."

Lu Meng glanced at Deng Dang and said, "I was drunk, and I was drunk in the Eastern Suburbs Racecourse this afternoon." If you want to blame, go to the man who poured me wine, and you will be angry with me. ”

"Bang!"

Deng Dang slapped the table and yelled: "You want to rebel!" If the ox does not drink water, how can there be a reason to force the head! ”

Through Shicai's words, Zhou Yu had roughly deduced the reason why Lu Meng was drunk, and he blamed himself a little, so he came forward to relieve Lu Meng and said: "When he was drunk, I was by his side, this matter is really no wonder for Lu Meng, if Mr. has to blame, it will be up to Zhou Yu to suffer." ”

"You can't teach a child! You can't teach your children! ”

Deng Dang angrily walked out of the study with his sleeves brushed up.

Lu Meng said "thank you", then pointed to the black qi under Zhou Yu's eyes, and said, "Brother Zhou, what's wrong with your eyes?" ”

Zhou Yu didn't explain, he just stretched out his palm, made a gesture to stop, and said, "I just want to sleep steadily, can you stop making noise?" ”

"Hmm." Lu Meng agreed.

"That's good."

Zhou Yu casually praised it, and walked straight back to the room.

"Knock knock, knock knock......"

He had not been lying down long before there was another knock at the door.

"Who? Let not let people sleep? ”

The knocker didn't reply, but continued to knock on the door.

He dragged his tired body to the door with a deep sleep.

When he opened the door, he couldn't help but open his sleepy eyes and exclaimed, "Why are you here?" ”

Because the person who knocked the door in front of him was very familiar to Zhou Yu. This person should have been in his hometown in Shu County, but he didn't want to appear here, this person was Zhou Yu's cousin - Zhou Jue.

"Zhou An, the good deeds you did will cause me trouble."

He couldn't help but close his eyes and look up to the sky and mutter.

"If you don't invite guests, what's the reason, get out of the way of me."

Zhou Jue thought he was procrastinating, so he pushed him away and consciously entered the banquet next to the table in the room and sat down.

Zhou Yu closed the door, eased his anger, and went to the banquet next to the table to sit with him.

He picked up the teapot on the case, poured a small cup of tea, handed it to Zhou Jue, and said, "You come here, can you have a safe journey?" Can I bring an entourage? Does Uncle Cousin know? Yuan Shu's affairs, who is in charge of them now? ”

Zhou Jue took the cup, took a sip of tea, and said, "Zhou An has accompanied me, and the road is also very safe." My father is now in charge of the affairs of the house. I have come here at the command of my father, and I will take you back to teach. ”

Knowing that this incident alarmed his cousin, Zhou Yu couldn't help but slap the case angrily: "Zhou An, I want to talk to him!" ”

Zhou Jue first replied lightly, "He is arranging food and lodging, and he will come over in a while", and then put down the cup, slapped the case violently, and said: "I revealed the matter between you and Miss Qiao's family." If you are angry, come at me. ”

It turned out that after Zhou Yu left that day, Zhou An went to Zhou Shang's Mansion and wanted to invite Zhou Shang to his home to take care of things in order to deal with Yuan Shu and his party. At the beginning, he didn't tell Zhou Shang the truth, but only said that the son had important things to do. Zhou Shang already believed this statement, but Zhou Jue, who was accompanying the auditors, noticed something strange and said, "My cousin is here, is it for personal matters?" ”

"This ......"

Zhou An snorted.

"Hmph, for women?"

"No, it's not ......"

"Oh, did you go to Anhui County?"

"It's not! No! ”

"Don't lie, he just went to Anhui County to find a woman surnamed Qiao. Honestly, what's going on. ”

"I said, I said ......"

When Zhou An saw that the matter was revealed, he told everything he knew.

Zhou Shang was extremely angry at his nephew's ridiculous move, but because of his blood relationship, he had to help his nephew. On the one hand, he sent Zhou An and Zhou Jue to Anhui County to find people, and on the other hand, he personally went to the virtuous nephew's house to stabilize the situation at home for the virtuous nephew. When Zhou Jue and Zhou An arrived in Anhui County, they went to various passenger stations and restaurants to inquire about the news, and finally found Zhou Yu's whereabouts in Feiran Restaurant.

Knowing the cause and effect, Zhou Yu couldn't help wiping his forehead and said, "Jue'er, Jue'er, your cousin treats you well, why do you have to embarrass your cousin?" ”

"It's because you treat me well that I can't watch you jump into the fire pit."

"What is a fire pit? What is Heaven? ”

"The Qiao family has no merit in their reputation, but they want to tempt you with their beauty, so as to cling to our Zhou family, isn't this a fire pit?"

"You are prejudiced against Shuang'er, and you are prejudiced against the entire Qiao family. Once people have prejudices against things, they will inevitably lose their justice and the ability to distinguish between right and wrong. ”

"Am I wrong? Wasn't it Qiao's family who came to visit Shu County that day? ”

"Of course."

"Did I misunderstand? Didn't the Qiao family come to Shu County to cling? ”

"Yes, yes......"

Zhou Jue's rather "guided" words really brought Zhou Yu into the pit, he slowed down for a while, sorted out his thoughts, and said: "According to my observation, her father is indeed modest, and her eldest brother does take advantage of her sister's desire to cling, but her second brother is kind to others, and the eldest sister is not afraid of the powerful." As for herself......" Speaking of this, he unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Wonderful people." ”

"Aren't you afraid that the Qiao family will drag you down?"

"Zi is not a fish, but you know the joy of fish."

Zhou Jue had no choice but to pull Zhou Yu and said, "Go back with me—keep what you say to my father." ”

"I haven't slept for two days and one night, let me sleep all night and go again, okay?"

He lay on the mat and refused to move.

At this moment, Zhou An suddenly knocked on the door and said, "Miss Jue'er, the accommodation has been arranged, and the food has been prepared, which is the first room on the right side of this room." Miss has been running around all day, so let's rest early. ”

"You see, the food is ready, and if you eat it late, it's going to be cold. Rest for the night after eating, and talk about it tomorrow morning. I'm begging you, okay? ”

Zhou Jue didn't plan to rush overnight, but she was provoked by the words and pretended to be posturing, since Zhou Yu gave her such a decent step, how could she be condescending. She threw down the phrase "I'll leave you alone" and opened the door and went to her room.

"The old slave sleeps in the first room on the left-hand side, and the son has something to call me."

Zhou An closed the door of the young master's room and went to his room.

In the evening of the same day, when Deng Dang's father was checking the accounts of the branch, he finally noticed the piece of gold engraved with the word "Zhou" in seal script. He approached Mother Deng and asked about the origin of the gold. Mother Deng pondered for a moment, and then explained the appearance of the person who paid the money. Deng's father didn't dare to slack off, so he took a car to the head office and discussed with Deng Dang how to deal with it. Father Deng went to the head office and heard the story of Deng Dang and Zhou Yu. Father Deng wanted to visit Zhou Yu in person, but he didn't want to, but he was stopped by Lu Meng and said, "Brother Zhou has fallen asleep." Considering that it was getting late, it was too presumptuous to bother, Father Deng said, "The world is in a hurry, and I am not in a hurry", and returned to the branch by car.

At the beginning of the next day, when the sky was just dawning, Zhou Yu had already finished washing. He didn't use his breakfast, so he quietly opened the door and crept out. When he passed by Zhou Jue's door, the door suddenly "squeaked" open.

"Why are you going?"

Zhou Jue leaned against the door, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and put on an arrogant posture.

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, then turned around and responded, "Help you order." ”

In order to be able to eat breakfast safely, Zhou Jue did not immediately expose her cousin, she nodded and agreed, "Well, go quickly, eat well and hurry." ”

At the right time, Zhou Yu and his entourage, who had breakfast, finally set foot on their way home in front of the restaurant.

"I've forgotten something in the restaurant, I'll go look for it."

They had been walking for less than two miles, and Zhou Yu found an excuse to get out.

"Stop!"

Before Zhou Yu could turn the horse's head, Zhou Jue stopped him and said, "Such a trivial matter, Zhou An is enough to do it for him, why should my cousin go through this." ”

"Uncle An, you know best what I think, what should be done and what not should be done, you can just do it yourself."

Zhou Yu blinked desperately, hinting at him with his eyes.

"Uncle An, you have to figure it out." Zhou Jue said.

Zhou An said, "Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry", then turned the horse's head and rode away.

In front of Qiao's house, Zhou An took the son's name card and handed it to the doorman, saying, "Present it to your second lady." ”

The doorman pushed over the name card and said, "It's still early, I'm afraid the second lady hasn't gotten up yet, I don't dare to disturb rashly." ”

"I'm tired of going in and taking a look."

Zhou An took out a tael of silver and handed it to the doorman again along with the name post.

The doorman accepted the silver, took the name card, and went straight to the second lady's residence, found a personal maidservant, and said, "Sister Ping'er, there are guests visiting the second miss outside the door, dare to ask the second miss if she can wake up?" ”

"Coincidentally. On weekdays, the young lady always sleeps until the hour, and today somehow, she gets up at the beginning of the morning to wash. ”

After speaking, Ping'er took the door sticker and went to Xiao Qiao's house to hand it over.

"Ping'er, help me make up."

Xiao Qiao read the famous post, so he came to the dresser and dressed himself carefully.

At three o'clock, Xiao Qiao finally appeared in front of Qiao's house with heavy makeup and light makeup, but the person in front of her was not the person she wanted to please. She couldn't help but look around and said, "What about your son-in-law?" ”

"Miss Joe."

Zhou An bowed and said, "There is something important happening in the Zhou family, and it is urgent for the son to deal with it, and the son has now embarked on the way home, and the old slave was ordered to come and tell the young lady." ”

"Oh, when will he come back?"

"The old slave is just a subordinate, how can he talk about the whereabouts of his master."

"Oh, yes, I lost my word."

"If the young lady has no other instructions, the old slave will retire first."

"Go, go, don't delay here, go after your master, or he should be in a hurry."

After some talking, Zhou An embarked on the journey home.

"Abominable Zhou Yu, words don't count, hate ......"

Little Joe also returned to the bedroom a little lonely.
