Chapter 19: Sneaking away
Fu Rushen looked at Xu Sa's determined expression and was silent. However, after Xu Sa sighed, he regained his solemn face.
She can be a puppet lady for a day, but she can't be a lifetime. It is impossible to really marry Fu Rushen, it is impossible in this life, in contrast, she would rather mix into the beggar gang to make a living.
"Do you have anything to say?" Fu Rushen saw her shrinking in the corner and asked.
Xu Sa shook his head.
She was physically and mentally exhausted right now, and she just wanted to squint honestly.
A quarter of an hour later, the carriage came to a steady stop. Fu Rushen was the first to get out of the car, and helped Xu Sa with affection, and Xu Sa slowly stepped off the carriage, dignified and calm, not at all like the frosted eggplant on the car.
Fu Rushen is rarely satisfied, and Xu Sa looks unreliable on weekdays, but it is not bad at critical moments.
Xu Sa only felt bitter in his heart, and his demure and not delicate face hid a loveless heart.
The first shop to arrive is the closest to the Dragon Dart Bureau. When the shopkeeper heard that Fu Rushen had arrived, he immediately trotted out to greet him: "If you miss the distance, forgive the owner!" ”
"No problem." Fu Rushen said lightly.
The shopkeeper looked at Xu Sa again: "This is ......"
Fu Rushen: "It's Neizi." ”
"Oh!" The shopkeeper reacted and exclaimed, "Lord Xichun, new lady!" Look up for a long time, look up for a long time! ”
Xu Sao smiled and bowed his head towards the shopkeeper, showing neither humility nor arrogance.
In fact, she was already roaring inside.
Everyone thinks that she is the lord of Xichun, and Fu Rushen thinks she is the outer cousin of the Marquis of Xichun, but she just happens to be surnamed Xu!
"The owner of the village and the wife of the owner, please come in first!" The shopkeeper greeted.
Fu Rushen raised his hand to support Xu Sa's waist, and his strength was slightly heavy, as if he was afraid that she would run away.
Xu Sa pursed his lips and quietly pinched the arm behind his waist.
Fu Rushen frowned slightly and glanced at her.
Xu Sa looked back, pulled the corners of his mouth without smiling, and then was taken into the store by Fu Rushen with an expressionless face.
Tossing for half a morning, having a lunch halfway, and continuing to toss in the afternoon, Xu Sa's time this day was spent on the cycle of rushing-socializing-running-socializing.
Fu Rushen was toasted halfway, according to Fu Rushen's previous advice, Xu Sa was half ashamed and half annoyed to push for him, there was one that really couldn't be pushed, Xu Sa drank.
"How much do you drink?" Fu Rushen didn't expect Xu Sa to be so conscientious.
Xu Sa stretched out three fingers.
"Three glasses?"
Xu Sa shook his finger.
I'm sorry, it's three altars.
Fu Rushen raised his eyebrows: "So powerful?" ”
Xu Sa shrugged.
It doesn't matter how much she drinks. Anyway, she would rather drink too much by herself than experience Master Fu's wine again.
The sun is setting.
Xu Sa finally waited for the carriage to approach the Xichun Marquis's Mansion.
Fu Rushen said as usual: "You sit with the shopkeeper for a while." Then he went into the inner hall with the shopkeeper.
Liu was similar to other ladies, knowing that she couldn't speak, so he invited her to sit down for tea and snacks, and became a female celebrity there.
Xu Sa sat for a while and asked the location of Liu's thatched house.
Liu didn't think much about it and pointed her in the direction.
Xu Sa smiled, saluted and thanked him, then touched the unguarded side door, glanced at the door lock, picked up his skirt and began to climb the wall.
In less than half a pillar of incense, Xu Sa was already sitting in the flower hall of the Hou Mansion.
The main seat is the Xichun Marquis and his wife.
"Why did Miss Xu come back? Didn't Master Fu's entourage already take your things? Xichun asked, rubbing his beard.
Xu Sa has a pen and paper at hand, and he can write and show them: "The folk girl is here to ask for advice, how long will she marry this time?" ”
Xichunhou thought for a moment: "What about this...... The saint is not at ease, how can we, as courtiers, speculate on ourselves? It's only to blame the old department of Eastern Chu for being too presumptuous, spreading messages everywhere, disturbing the purity of the saint. ”
Xu Sa took a breath and continued to write: "You have to give a time limit, after all, you don't want the folk girl to follow Master Fu for a lifetime." ”
Xichunhou smiled, and the smile was meaningful.
Mrs. Xichun Hou also laughed and said, "Miss Xu is too worried, this is not enough." ”
What an uncomfortable smile.
Xu Sa asked again: "Then I will first carry the identity of the maid of the Hou Ye's outer room?" ”
"Isn't Miss Xu's parents gone, and being able to recognize Master Hou is something that many people can't ask for." Mrs. Xichun said.
Where is it good to recognize a thief as a father? Xu Sa was silent on her face, but she sneered inside, she hadn't forgotten that she had been drugged and beaten in a row.
"Anyway, just a month. In any case, write a letter, girl, and we will try to exonerate you. After Mrs. Xichun finished speaking, she clapped her hands, and the next person actually brought up a stack of silver tickets.
"These plus the previous ones are enough for you and your pretty gentleman to be prosperous and rich in the second half of your life, right?" Mrs. Xichun asked.
Xu Sa was stunned for a moment before she reacted, what the other party said should be her apprentice.
It was as uncomfortable as being held in her chest, and she couldn't afford to mess with the other party's wealth and power. Xu Sa didn't want to say more, took the silver ticket and shortened their bodies at them, turned around and left.
"Master Hou, do you think she can survive for a month?" After Xu Sa left, Mrs. Xichun asked in a low voice.
