Liu Fu swallowed his saliva, didn't dare to take a step into the wing, just gently grabbed the door and slowly closed it.

In the room, the three of them were silent for a while, only to be broken by Dong Ce's wry smile.

"It's not good that the fish soup is cold, don't waste it." After Dong Ce finished speaking, he picked up the chopsticks and dealt with the food on the table.

Wang Fuyan and Shi Shi smiled when they appeared, and then they also ate.

During this meal, Dong Ce asked Shi Shiliang again where he was going to show his hand? And Shi Shiliang's answer immediately made Dong Ce hesitate.

It's not that Dong Ce is worried about being seen through on some occasions, but that the occasion is really not the place he should go!

Huixianzhuang, that is, where the flower viewing party was opened, when not only Gusu, but also the famous talents and beauties of Suzhou may return to visit, in addition, some of the big scholars, bureaucrats, and even the virtuous king will also come, Dong Ce was originally happy to show a hand on such occasions, but he was blocked by Cao Luorong before, and he could already think of how sad he was to go to that station!

Wang Fuyan and Shi Shiliang are both human spirits, and they saw Dong Ce's concerns at a glance, Shi Shiliang immediately comforted: "The previous son, named Ye Xize, his father is a Gusu Mansion, and he is also talented, as for him and ......"

"Ahem!"

As soon as Shi Shiliang said this, Wang Fuyan suddenly coughed, which immediately made Shi Shiliang wake up, and put aside the topic: "To be honest, as long as Master Dong doesn't offend him in person, forgive him and don't dare to embarrass you, after all, this matter is ......."

"Ahem!"

As soon as Shi Shiliang said this, Wang Fuyan hurriedly coughed twice.

Dong Ce couldn't help but laugh when he saw the two of them like this, and said, "It's okay, we are doing business, we can't cut off our financial route because of this little thing, so what's the harm in going there." ”

"It's the best that Master Dong can think like this!" Shi Shiliang said happily.

The three of them chatted while eating, and after they were full of wine and food, the matter was also discussed, Dong Ce said that he would go and prepare, and then said goodbye to the two and left.

Along the way, Liu Fudu peeked at the young man's expression from the umbrella eaves, but saw that his face was flat, and finally couldn't help asking, "Young boy, are you okay?" ”

"What can I do?" Dong Ce said with a smile.

"You don't mind?" Liu Fu said curiously.

"Hey, I said Ah Fu, what do you care about me?" Dong Ce didn't have a good airway.

Liu Fu pursed his lips and said, "I'm just worried that you will panic young man!" ”

"You...... cough, if you don't hold back, you're going to be suffocated, so think about it yourself. After Dong Ce finished speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at the cloth shop in front of him, and then strode over.

When Dong Ce returned to Cao's mansion, he saw the elegant and dignified Mrs. Cao standing under the eaves in front of the hall, and when he found Dong Ce coming back, he smiled and said, "Ce'er, come here." ”

Dong Ce nodded when he heard this, walked to the eaves and closed the oil-paper umbrella and asked, "What is my aunt looking for me?" Dong Ce didn't believe that Cao Luorong would sue him, and besides, he couldn't complain about him.

Mrs. Cao smiled faintly and said, "When you see Luo Rong's grandmother later, you can say whatever you want, don't be afraid, what do you think about this kid Actually, I also guessed that it was all for the good of the two families, and no one wanted to lose face, just assume that Luo Rong is not worthy of your Dong family today!" ”

Dong Ce smiled and nodded, except for Mrs. Cao, no one in the Cao Mansion now values this marriage, after all, these days, businessmen and scholars really can't live together, maybe some men and women are tempted by each other's handsomeness and beauty, but after a long time, it will be boring, so it is better to pass by.

Dong Ce is not a person who cares about what he once had, but a person who has always looked to the future, his ideal woman is actually as simple as possible, there are not so many curves, straight and straight, because in this way, if there is a problem between the two, they can raise it face to face, solve it and run in together, instead of guessing.

This is really a bit of a fit for Cao Luorong, but in fact, Cao Luorong's heart is very complicated!

Under the guidance of Mrs. Cao, Dong Ce came to the old lady's house, and soon after knocking on the door, a maidservant opened the door and greeted the two.

Mrs. Cao smiled and let Dong Ce go in alone, and Dong Ce was not restrained, and went straight into the old lady's front hall.

At this time, in the small hall, the old lady was kneeling on the wooden couch, reaching out and gently caressing a red silk dress on her knees.

"Grandmother Cao!" Dong Ce said respectfully.

The old lady did not raise her head, and continued to gently smooth the wrinkles on the red silk, but said in her mouth: "Your uncle nagged with the old body again yesterday, in fact, you don't need to say it, the old body can also understand that the birds on this tree are not looking down on the chickens on the ground, in their eyes, there is only the eagle that spreads its wings and soars, but it can be accompanied by the chicken, and the eagle will die!" ”

Speaking of this, the old lady slowly and gently folded the red silk dress in half, during which Dong Ce suddenly saw a wet piece of red silk, another piece.

The old lady still didn't look up, sighed faintly, and said: "When your uncle wanted to be an official, the old man tried his best to dispel his thoughts, just didn't want him to follow in his father's footsteps, and now, although he didn't say anything on the surface, he complained to me very much in his heart, and the old man didn't want to use his life to force his granddaughter anymore, let her go to the eagle, the eagle, or the eagle, the old body would not say a word." ”

Watching the old lady put the folded red silk dress in the brocade box on the case, Dong Cecai said, "Child...... One day he will leave his mother, whether he knocks or touches, this is the path he chooses, if even he denies himself, then what is the meaning of this life? ”

"Huh!" The old lady smiled a rare smile after hearing this, handed the brocade box to Dong Ce, and as she pointed to an empty space on the cabinet, Dong Ce stuffed the brocade box into it.

"Cel." The old lady called, and when Dong Ce looked at her, she said: "At the beginning, when Lao Shen and Grandpa Luo Rong came from the north, they encountered gangsters blocking the way, and seeing that Grandpa Luo Rong died in Huangquan, and I, I am afraid that the end will be even more miserable, but I happened to meet Dong Chuangxi, who had not yet made a name for himself at that time, hehe, now it is exactly thirty years!" ”

"Life is bumpy, fate is wonderful, no fate, this hurdle old body will not be able to pass, this is fate, but also grace, however, until today, we have no return! That's it, that's it......" The old lady waved her hand and said, "Go back, when you go back, say hello to your father, come to the future, come back to see my old man again when you have time!" ”

Dong Ce looked at Mrs. Cao, whose eyes were red, hesitated for a moment, and finally didn't say a word, turned around and walked out slowly.

Outside the house, Mrs. Cao watched Dong Ce come out, and sighed sadly, "Your uncle wants you to leave after the two of you participate in the flower viewing party." ”

"That's what I wanted, but because my nephew still has a business, it's inconvenient for these two people to disturb the house, so I can pack up my things, thank you aunt for taking care of me these days."

After Dong Ce finished speaking, he didn't allow Mrs. Cao to refuse, so he walked straight to the guest room where he lived.

After packing up his things, Dong Ce asked Liu Fu to take it to the carriage and put it away, and then he stood in front of the gate of Cao's Mansion, looking at the autumn rain that had been falling for most of the day.

I don't know how long it took, as a carriage came, followed by Cao An's surprised inquiry: "Hey, what are you doing here?" ”

Seeing Cao An get out of the carriage, Dong Ce hurriedly handed over the umbrella and said with a faint smile: "My nephew is busy with business, and I am afraid that it is inconvenient to stay in my uncle's mansion longer, so I specially bid farewell to my uncle here." ”

"What, in such a hurry? Why don't you stay longer? I'd like to go to the cherry blossom viewing party with you. After all, it's a good time to recommend your tea set for new tea. Cao An was surprised.

"The nephew will go to the flower viewing party, but in another way, but it will not get in the way, and if there is anything needed at that time, my uncle will come to say, and now the nephew will be busy with some things, so he will leave first." After Dong Ce finished speaking, he hugged his fists, didn't even hit the umbrella, and rushed directly to the carriage that Liu Fu parked on the side of the road.

Cao An still wanted to say something, but seeing that Dong Ceru was in a hurry, he seemed to have guessed something, and couldn't help but sigh heavily!

On a rainy night, located in the center of the west city of Gusu Mansion, this Xianwang is actually the Xianwang that everyone calls the Xianwang, and the title of Xianwang is also what he asked Ning Taizu for, but because of his relationship, the talents of Suzhou and even the entire Jiangnan have been greatly reused, so this person calls him the Xianwang!

At this time, in a side hall in the house, a beautiful and dignified beautiful woman knelt on a wide wooden couch, listening to the nagging of a beautiful girl wearing a pink and white pleated skirt, she couldn't help it, and said: "Sister, it's not my sister who said you, you are so old, when will you get married?" Do you want to never marry for the rest of your life? ”

"Am I going to have a day or a twilight?" This extremely depressed woman is Cao Luorong!

"You don't go to the same time, why did you fall in love with the son of the Ye family again, and now you have affection for the son of the Dong family? But speaking of which, the son of the Dong family is your rightful husband, but you are ...... Ahem, now I don't know how to describe this extremely complicated relationship, sister! Princess Xian was really speechless to her sister-in-law at this time.

Cao Luorong was even more speechless, and she didn't know where this sister could hear that she had affection for Dong Ce? It's just a few words of complaining about him, if this is also love, then she Cao Luorong loves more people.

"I haven't taken a fancy to anyone now, so don't think about it, sister, as for the evil eye, it's really just angry with him, think about it, how can you ......"

Without waiting for Cao Luorong to finish speaking, Princess Xian said first: "No matter how you say it, you have shared hardships with you, but he regards you as a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and afterwards said that the two have nothing to do with each other, right?" I'm ready to say the thirteenth. ”

Princess Xian smiled bitterly and said: "If the son of the Dong family is really as you say, people knock you out and send you away, but they don't want you to get in the way, once you are caught, what if you say he saved you?" Or do you ask the villagers? If you weren't stupid enough to jump into a lake, would you be able to do this? So what people say is right, but you have to be together, isn't it boring to be self-deprecating! Speaking of which, maybe it's because you know better than anyone else in your heart, but you can't accept that he treats you like nothing, so you pester people and don't want to let go. ”

"Ahh Cao Luorong screamed like crazy, she was indeed going crazy, she really couldn't accept Princess Xian's words, Dong Ce did have something extraordinary, but at the same time, he was also a boring man for her, how could this be put in her heart? No way.

Princess Xian saw that this girl was crazy again, and she didn't bother to say anything, whether Cao Luorong liked it or not, this matter must not be decided by her.

When the palace guards escorted the drunken Cao Luorong home, Cao Luorong immediately learned from her mother that her grandmother agreed to dissolve the marriage, and Dong Ce also left, for some reason, Cao Luorong's heart tightened, but in the end, she just smiled stupidly and responded: "Oh! ”
