Chapter 30: Mistakes (Part II)
At this moment, a scream came from the maidservant, and the sound of the tea cup falling to the ground and shattering followed. Lei Niang was awakened suddenly, and immediately broke free from the sinking, she wanted to push Zhuang Yi away, but Zhuang Yi burned himself, but he didn't let go of her. In a hurry, she stretched out her arm in a bit of anger, picked up the candlestick on the case, and struck Zhuang Yi on the back of the head.
The Venus flashed in front of him, his mind turned black, Zhuang Yi's body shook and fell down like wood. Lei Niang was about to turn around and run away, but she was taken aback when she saw this, hesitated for a moment, and quickly grabbed his arm, and supported him with her thin fragrant shoulders, but she didn't know what to do for a while. She lowered her head and thought about it, and simply dragged Zhuang Yi to her own couch in the room, and covered him with the futon, and then saw that the back of his head was oozing blood, so she hurriedly bandaged him, and then she breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and blew out all the lights and candles, and ran out like a deer hitting her heartbeat.
Lei Niang went straight downstairs, stood at the staircase and sorted out the messy dress, suddenly remembered something, and suddenly felt a little dazed, her boudoir gave up to that little thing, what can I do tonight? She thought for a moment, then went and called the old coachman, and got into the carriage in a panic.
The old coachman saw her frowning and blushing, his eyes were a little meaningful, but he didn't say anything, and asked in a hoarse voice: "The door of the square is closed after dark, where is Lei Niang going?" ”
"Go to the jewelry store in the East Market and use the money to open the door......" Lei Niang didn't dare to look at the old coachman's eyes, her heart was a little weak, and her voice replied quickly and quickly, she looked at the attic from the car window, and felt a strange feeling in her heart, but she didn't want to pay attention to it anymore.
The coachman didn't say much, and drove out of the backyard gate.
In the private room in the front hall of the Twilight Snow Building, the music and dancing have dispersed. Zhao Yingzhe sat listlessly, his eyes wandered around, and he never saw Lei Niang come in again, he was already a little impatient, and he wanted people to find him but he couldn't speak. Because his cousin Qiu Ling was sitting next to him, this girl knew his thoughts, but she deliberately didn't speak.
The three of Yang Cheng, who were sitting opposite, were also a little impatient, and Song Wenji finally opened his mouth to urge: "Brother Xiuwen! I've got you figured it out, so you should open your mouth! If you don't say anything else, then Zhao Jiagoro will be leaving! ”
Yang Zhi nodded, stood up, with a flattering smile on his face, walked to Zhao Yingzhe's case and bowed and said, "Zhao Wulangjun!" I wonder if the music and dance just now are still fun? ”
"Hmm...... All right! Very good! Thank you Yang for your hospitality! Zhao Yingzhe said perfunctorily, slightly bowing his hand is considered to be a return of the courtesy, his official position is a commander, and he is the Zhao family golang, of course, he disdains this little official. But this little official is willing to be the east and invite him to visit the Dusk Snow Building, and he is still very willing, not for anything else, just for the Lei Niang he dreams of.
"Zhao Wulang! There is a reluctant request from the lowly position, I don't know if I should say it or not......" Yang engaged in wanting to speak and stopped.
"Don't be so rambling, if you have something to say......" Zhao Yingzhe craned his neck and looked around, and said impatiently.
"That's the case, the humble position met a poor cuo big in the Yuyang restaurant at noon today, this big act is different from ordinary people, it is simply deviant, and a certain reprimanded him, as a result, this big measure relied on the strength of the people, and after beating the lowly post in public, he went away, and wanted to be humble, but also dressed in public clothes, this beating of the official is simply extremely bad!" Yang took out his handkerchief and cried with old tears.
"Oh...... And such people! What's his name, so-and-so has this bad breath for you. When Zhao Yingzhe heard this, he immediately became interested, he patted his chest, and looked like he was about to be uneven.
"I asked someone about it, but I didn't know if I didn't listen, and I was shocked when I heard it! It turns out that this measure is a thief in Madu Mountain, his name is Zhuang Yi, and he does all kinds of evil to kill people and set fires! I also asked Zhao Wulangjun to arrest this Zhuang Yi and eliminate the harm for the people with the right law and discipline! Yang was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said.
"Huh? Have it? You are talking nonsense, my Jizhou has always been peaceful, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the road is not forgotten, and the door is not closed at night, where are the robbers, Yang Wenbai! Don't you want to do this? Zhao Yingzhe understood what was going on as soon as he heard it, and asked him to arrest Zhuang Yi, isn't this a slap in the face, how is it possible. It's just a small official, and if he fights, he won't be a big deal, not to mention that Yang is still standing here.
Yang Zhi was stunned for a moment, his mouth was wide open enough to stuff an egg in, he didn't understand why this Zhao Jiawulang suddenly turned his face and didn't recognize people. But he didn't give up, and wanted to say something more, Zhao Yingzhe was already annoyed, and coldly spit out two words, "Stand down!" ”
Song Wenji saw that something was wrong, so he hurriedly rushed over, saluted and asked, "Zhao Wulang!" Can you tell us why? ”
"Why? Isn't it good for Yang to engage in it? Where is he injured, he is clearly deceiving and deceiving, how can he be deceived, don't talk about it anymore! If nothing else, go back on your own! The wine money is paid by himself, ......" Zhao Yingzhe immediately opened his mouth to drive people away, if you don't say anything, the more you talk about it, the worse it gets, and the Zhao family will have to show their feet.
"Zhao Wulangjun ......" Song Wenji still wanted to explain, but Zhao Yingzhe had already gotten up and strode towards the door of the private room.
"Zhao Langjun stays! It's easy to say...... Let's settle the account! Yang Cheng hurriedly followed, he didn't want to offend Zhao Yingzhe.
"It's good! Go back first! I still have something to ......" Zhao Yingzhe sent Yang Cheng and the three of them away, and immediately ran back again.
"Goro! It's so late, let's go back! Zhao Qiuling frowned and said.
"Qi Niang! You know where Lei Niang lives, you can't help me find Lei Niang, I finally came back from Yancheng once, just for her! Cho Young-chul pleaded.
"Lei Niang will not be a concubine, Gorou, you are married, so you will die of this heart! If the fifth sister-in-law knew, what would she think in her heart...... If you don't leave, I'll go first! Zhao Qiuling coldly refused. I also know that although the relationship between her and Lei Niang is good, it is not enough to talk about everything.
"Qi Niang! Don't go! Zhao Yingzhe stepped forward and grabbed her sleeve and pleaded bitterly.
Zhao Qiuling couldn't resist him, so he had to nod and agree. turned around and walked out of the private room, went downstairs, and found a maid, let her lead the way, and came to the small building where Lei Niang lived, and the maid went by herself. This maid was obviously the maid in the front hall, and she didn't know that Lei Niang had just left.
Zhao Qiuling looked up and saw two lanterns hanging on the stairs, but there was no light in the window of Lei Niang's room, and she was a little surprised, could it be that Lei Niang was not there? But she's just left. She hesitated for a moment, stomped her foot hard, and went up to the second floor with her skirt in one hand and the staircase railing in the other.
"Lei Niang! Are you there? I'm Qiu Ling! Zhao Qiuling shouted, there was no light in the room, and no one answered.
Zhao Qiuling became a little irritated, and secretly regretted that he had promised his cousin, but now he had to look for it. She hesitated for a while, then pushed open the door and walked in, it was pitch black inside, she was a little scared, and hurriedly groped for a fire fold, lit the candle, and the light turned on, but the flower hall was empty.
"Lei Niang! Lei Niang! Are you there? ”
Still no one answered, Zhao Qiuling thought, Lei Niang may have gone out, only to wait here for a while, anyway, Lei Niang always has to go back to the room. But after waiting for a cup of tea, he still didn't see Lei Niang come back, Zhao Qiuling became anxious, simply picked up the candlestick, and decided to go to Lei Niang's bedroom to have a look.
Pushing open the door, I saw that on the couch, the white gauze tent hung high, and the sound of a person's breathing came from inside.
Zhao Qiuling pursed her lips and chuckled, and suddenly decided to play a prank and scare Lei Niang by pretending to be a ghost. She put the candlestick on Lei Niang's dresser, blew it out in one gulp, and then touched the end of the cabinet and climbed up silently.
Suddenly, a large strong hand reached out and hugged her. Feeling that the person sleeping on the couch moved, Zhao Qiuling screamed in fright, and another big hand reached over and covered her mouth. Then she felt ashamed and humiliated that this was a hungry wolf-like man, tearing his dress frantically. But she squeaked and could no longer speak, and let the tears welling up, remorse, anger, resentment, and all kinds of emotions intertwined in her heart......
In the private room in the front hall, the infatuated Zhao Yingzhe was still waiting stupidly and stupidly, waiting...... Then he fell asleep on the table, and the maid departed, and no one waited for him. It wasn't until the middle of the moon that the Dusk Snow Building was finally about to close, and the maid and the man found that the lights were still on here, so they discovered him and quickly woke him up.
"Is Lei Niang here?" Zhao Yingzhe asked while rubbing his sour eyes.
"Lei Niang went to the jewelry store in the East Market, this is Zhao Wulang, right? You're a regular visitor here, and you don't even know about it? The guy asked, a little surprised.
"What about my Qi Niang?" Zhao Yingzhe was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered what happened before he went to bed.
"Zhao Wulang, wait a minute, I'm going to help you ask......" The guy immediately ran out, and after a while, he came back out of breath again, and said with a smile: "A maid said that your Qiniang went to Lei Niang's small building, and never came down."
"Oh? Hehe......" Zhao Yingzhe laughed heartlessly and muttered, "Good Qi Niang!" Dare to love is still talking to Lei Niang...... Wait a minute! You mean Lei Niang went to East City? ”
The guy nodded, also feeling a little strange, and said suspiciously: "There is no light upstairs in Lei Niang...... Your Qi Niang can't sleep there, right? ”
"Nonsense...... My Qi Niang never stays here, no...... I've got to check it out! Cho Young-cheol finally realized that something seemed to be wrong.
"Zhao Wulang! You're a man, go to Lei Niang's boudoir, isn't that appropriate? The guy was a little displeased, and after thinking about it, he felt that it would not work like this, so he said again: "Wait for Lei Niang's maid to go up and see what is going on, Zhao Wulang will wait for the news!" ”
