The old monk is not good, even Liu Da can hear the threat in his words, on the way down, he is holding on to the handle of the knife with one hand, and his vigilant eyes look at every pedestrian on the road with a different look, afraid that if these people have any abnormal movements, he will draw a knife on the spot.

"Liu Da, you don't need to be like this," Wang Mai comforted him on his horse, "How can I say that I am also an official, what gangster dares to commit murder in broad daylight?" ”

Liu Da relaxed a little when he heard this, but a pair of eyes still looked at the six roads, and refused to let go of any trouble: "Ah Lang, since those bald donkeys plan to be unfavorable to you, it is better to transfer more brothers over, in case something happens, you can also have a response." "Those brothers in the wine shop have nothing to do now, they are so idle that they are in a panic, they serve wine and meat every day, and they are full of fat when they eat one by one, and they are angry when they look at it. It's a waste for Ah Lang to pay back so much every month.

Wang Mai pondered for a while on the horse: "That's fine, it is estimated that no one will dare to hit me directly." He looked at the carriage behind him, "It's Rou Niang's side that I'm not at ease, so I sent them back early today." ”

Liu Ning'er also moved to Rou Niang's house two days ago, saying that it was to facilitate business discussions with Rou Niang. Of course, Rou Niang agreed without hesitation, although this Liu Ning'er is young, she is extremely smart, and she also knows poetry and books, and she studied with her for two days, which is more effective than dying in the house for half a month. Especially the special bookkeeping method required by Wang Mai, I couldn't learn it before, this Liu Ning'er watched it for a long time, and chatted about it, but it's a pity that it's a daughter's family, otherwise it would be more than enough to take the top prize.

"Sister Rou Niang......"

Rou Niang was thinking about it, when she suddenly heard Liu Ning'er calling her, and quickly came back to her senses: "Ning'er, what's wrong?" ”

"You shouldn't be called by people, you missed a good show." Liu Ning'er said dissatisfied.

"What's the show?" Rou Niang asked in surprise.

"Along the way, Wang Guanren secretly looked at you through the window of the carriage several times......

"It's not looking at me...... Rou Niang said with a little weakness, "Maybe it's looking at you." ”

"Even if you look at me, why are you blushing?" Liu Ning'er said with a teasing smile on her face.

Hearing this, Rou Niang quickly touched her face with her hand, and replied insincerely: "I'm hot......"

"You want to deceive others but you can't deceive me, I saw the official holding your hand that day, and the two of them were still very close......"

Rou Niang was exposed, her face turned even redder, and she was speechless.

"Isn't it a good thing that the king is a good person, highly educated, and treats people well, and he likes you? Why doesn't my sister admit it? ”

"Who said that," Rou Niang shook her head shyly, "You said he was so good, why didn't you marry him?" After saying that, I regretted it a little, no matter what Liu Ning'er said, she was also a girl who had not left the cabinet, how could she use this kind of thing to laugh.

Liu Ning'er has been in the dust for half a year, she has already seen through these things, she doesn't care, and said in a somewhat low tone: "I want to, but I'm from a ...... I'm afraid that the officials will dislike it, and besides, all of his eyes are on Sister Rouniang now, how can there be outsiders ......"

Rou Niang heard her reveal her heart without hesitation, but at the moment she was a little flustered, and hurriedly said: "Sister is joking with you, don't take it seriously" When she was about to say it, the carriage stopped, and when she looked out of the window, she arrived at ......the door of the house.

Liu Ning'er jumped out of the carriage and helped Rou Niang down, and Wang Mai also got off the horse and walked towards the two at this time.

"Ning'er, you go in first, I have something to say to Rou Niang." Wang Mai helped the second daughter take the belongings from the carriage, settled the car money with the groom, and made an appointment to pick it up early tomorrow morning.

Liu Ning'er smiled and took something from Wang Mai's hand: "Then you two talk slowly, I'll go in first." ”

Rou Niang heard the ridicule in her words, and couldn't help but think of the words that Wang Mai confessed to her that night, and suddenly felt a little flustered, hanging her head and not knowing what to do.

“…… What do you think of this? Wang Mai said something, but found that Rou Niang's expression was different, and she didn't seem to be listening to herself, so she hurriedly asked.

“…… I haven't figured it out yet. Rou Niang blurted out.

"Haven't thought about it yet?" Wang Mai looked at her inexplicably, "What do you need to think about in this matter?" You just need to take a break and move back when I figure out a way. ”

"Huh?" Rou Niang looked at Wang Mai in confusion, "What are the officials talking about?" ”

"You didn't listen to me?" Wang Mai asked strangely, "Then I'll say it again, the old monk Hui Cheng came to our 'Guoshixuan' today, I offended him before, I'm afraid it will hurt you, so I want to find a courtyard to temporarily settle you, and at the same time send more people to protect you, what do you think?" ”

"So that's the case," Rou Niang breathed a sigh of relief, and thought carefully about the meaning of her words, "Master Huicheng is a high-ranking monk, I'm afraid he won't do those things, right?" She has been believing in Buddhism all these years, and she goes to the White Horse Temple every once in a while to burn incense, so she doesn't believe that those monks will be too embarrassed by Wang Wheat.

"Prevention is better than prevention," said Wang Mai, "and it is better for me to live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and it is always good to be cautious in everything." ”

"Everything is up to the officials." Rou Niang also felt that Wang Mai's words made sense, anyway, it would be good to move out and live for a while.

"The house next door to me happens to be empty, so I'll inquire about the price today, you can clean it up tonight, and you can move in tomorrow." In fact, there is no empty courtyard, money can make ghosts grind, as long as the money is enough, are you afraid that the family will not move out overnight? It's just An Rou Niang's heart to say this.

The two said goodbye, Rou Niang walked in the door, and Sun Yu, who was playing in the yard, immediately ran over when he saw his mother. Rou Niang picked up her son, but found that her son was a lot fatter than before, and his face was also red.

walked into the house and told Liu Ning'er about Wang Mai's proposal, Liu Ning'er clapped her hands happily: "This is a good thing, Wang Guanren treats my sister so well, the new courtyard must be much more spacious than this old house." ”

"We're just staying temporarily, and we're going to move back sooner or later, how happy are you?" Rou Niang said as she cleaned up her things.

"Moving back?" Liu Ning'er covered her mouth and snickered, "I'm afraid that my sister will move to Wang Guanren's house while she lives, how can there be any reason to move back?" ”

"You little girl, chew your tongue indiscriminately, I'll ...... I'll ignore you. Rou Niang turned her head a little angrily.

"Sister......" Liu Ning'er saw that Rou Niang didn't seem to be lying, and hurriedly hugged her arm with both hands to beg for mercy, "People also see that you and Wang Guanren are in love with each other, so it's a joke, don't be so stingy." ”

Rou Niang sighed: "I know you're joking with me, but ...... I'm so upset right now...... Don't know what to do. ”

"Don't you have any intention of being a king?" Liu Ning'er looked at her with a wink.

"Wang Guanren is a good person, and he is kind to our mother and son......"

"Is that what you mean for him?"

"It's just ......" Rou Niang bit her lower lip and told her the whole story.

Liu Ning'er frowned after hearing this: "This matter is very difficult for him, and it may be difficult for ordinary men to agree, let alone ...... Your husband has left your mother and son for more than a year, why should you ...... for him" said halfway, but he saw that Rou Niang's face was not good-looking, so he was busy and didn't say anything.

"I promised him before he died, how can I break my promise?" Rou Niang closed her eyes and opened them again, "Wang Guanren is not worried that there is no daughter from a good family willing to marry, and I am a widow...... Just wait for a year and a half, and maybe he will be over like this. After speaking, she felt like thousands of snakes and ants were biting in her heart, and she couldn't breathe in pain.

Wang Mai first went to Song Laosan's house, asked him to send some people from the winery, and knocked on the doors of the neighbors, but did not find a suitable place. It's not that people don't want to sell, it's that it's really a bit urgent to move out tomorrow, but he also feels that those yards are a little dilapidated, and he is afraid that he will treat Rou Niang badly, so he is planning to pull out the general among these shorts and choose a random household, but Liu Da next to him spoke.

"It's better for officials to buy a big mansion, first, these small courtyards are really small, and there is no backyard, these rough people don't have a proper line on weekdays, for fear of verbally colliding with the two ladies; Second, it's time for the officials to change their yards; Third, once Rou Niang moves over, as the saying goes, the building near the water gets the moon first, and gets along day and night......"

Wang Mai felt that what Liu Da said made sense, and said with a smile: "This method is good, you go around, see if there is a big house for sale nearby, don't care about the price, be sure to let them move over tomorrow, this small courtyard will be sent to you, you should marry a daughter-in-law at such an age, don't mess around all day long." ”

Liu Da held back a smile in his heart, and said in his heart Ah Lang also said that I don't marry a lady when I'm old, aren't you the same? However, he finally watched Wang Mai keep the clouds open and see the moonlight, and he was also happy in his heart, and hurriedly agreed: "Okay." Ah Lang didn't know, the compound behind us had just been vacated, and the original owner was implicated in Pei Renji's case a while ago, and was demoted to Huaibei, and he was in a hurry to sell, I'm afraid it's cheaper than usual, so I'll ask. ”

When it comes to Pei Renji Wang Mai, I thought of Luo Shixin, he just led the troops to the expedition yesterday, and sent someone to send a farewell letter before the expedition, the content of the letter was very vague, but Wang Mai still saw that he was completely dead, Wang Shichong sent him to lead the troops at this time, and it was already a meat bun and a dog to go and have no return.

Suddenly remembering the strange appearance of Rou Niang just now, Wang Mai wondered for a while. Could it be that she has something on her mind? I told her about the temporary avoidance, but she didn't think about it inexplicably. I revealed my heart to her that night, but she said that she had to think about it, right...... Is she absent-minded because she is avoiding the question?

Thinking of this, the flame that had just ignited in Wang Mai's heart couldn't help but go cold again, he didn't expect that he had done so much, and he hadn't exchanged her feelings until now. But these days when I contact her, I always feel that she is intentional to herself, is all this her own wishful thinking? Or has she been just perfunctory all along?

A woman's heart, a needle under the sea, Wang Mai, Wang Mai, have you only remembered this truth today? I tasted the grape wine from the three ends of the sorghum, but my mouth was full of bitterness.
