Chapter 41: Thinking of Survival
Although it was early spring and the weather was getting warmer, there was still a charcoal basin in the room. Xie Sicun took off the skin and handed it to Xiao Cui, with a tired expression on his face.
"Miss, why do you hate that surnamed Cheng so much?" Xiao Cui hung the clothes on the hanger and asked curiously. Sitting in business was originally to make money in harmony, and in her impression, it was rare to see Xie Sicun treat a person like this. In the past, even if he met someone who was disgusted, Xie Sicun would not be so obvious.
"This man is hateful!" Xie Sicun said indignantly: "In the future, you have to stay away from him, don't look at him as a showman, but he is very dirty and shameless!" ”
"Rude?" Xiao Cui asked curiously, "Why is he dirty and shameless?" ”
Xiaocui's age is similar to Xie Sicun, they have been together since they were children, and their relationship is very close, so they are not as careful and scrupulous as ordinary masters and servants.
"Haven't you seen ......" Xie Sicun only appeared when she wanted to tell Xiaocui about Cheng Zhong's filthy and shamelessness, but she couldn't find any factual basis at all.
She wanted to say that Cheng Zhong was rummaging through boxes and cabinets in Du Chongde's room without the permission of others, but later she also knew that Cheng Zhong was investigating the case by doing so. Not only that, but Cheng Zhong solved a complex murder case in a very short period of time, which is much more efficient than the previous yamen! Of course, it can also be said to be a coincidence, but at least it cannot prove that Cheng Zhong's character is problematic.
Then, she wanted to say that Cheng Zhongyi was jealous of people and quarreled. But Jingxinzhai was taken by Xie Jiangbo to Cheng Zhong, and Cheng Zhong didn't seem to be a prostitute after he went, but corrected Jingxin, the murderer.
After thinking about it, Xie Sicun couldn't figure out why he hated this person so much.
"What's wrong, Miss?" Seeing that Xie Sicun didn't speak for a long time, Xiao Cui asked.
"This man is a disciple." Xie Sicun hesitated for a moment and said, "When I passed through Guangfulin City by boat that day, he actually hid on the shore and peeked at me!" ”
"Poof!" Xiao Cui laughed out loud and said, "Miss, how can this be considered a sin? You are so good-looking, even a blind person will look at you twice, how can people look at you a few times to become a disciple? ”
Why doesn't Xie Sicun know this truth? But she hates Cheng Zhong from the bottom of her heart, maybe there is no reason for hate and love, right?
"Okay, okay, don't talk about this person, I'm hungry! You go to see Liu's mother, why is the meal not ready? "Xie Sicun has been busy outside all day, and he is indeed a little hungry.
"Miss, you forgot about it, you just said that you didn't let Liu's mother cook, saying that someone made you lose your appetite." Xiao Cui said with a smile.
"Ah, I just said it casually, I want to be angry with him, how can you take it seriously?" Xie Sicun said urgently.
When Xiao Cui heard this, she smiled and said, "Teasing you!" Liu's mother is cooking, it is estimated that it will be almost ready, you have been busy all day, and you have to read the account book at night, why can't you be hungry to reconcile? ”
"You little hoof, don't tear your mouth if you mess around again." Xie Sicun said ruthlessly, and at the same time made a gesture to chase and fight, Xiaocui hurriedly begged for mercy and ran away, and the laughter like a silver bell spread far away.
"Wow, it smells so good!" Cheng Zhong snorted exaggeratedly and praised: "It's still the food cooked by my mother, but the chef of Zhuangyuan Building is worse than you, and I don't know how many streets." ”
"You kid is going to talk nonsense." Liu laughed. Although he knew that Cheng Zhong was amusing her by saying this, Liu was still very happy in his heart.
"Brother, what is the food like in the Champion Building? I've heard people in the city say that the food there is made of gold, is it true? Cheng Lianyi asked a little greedily.
"Silly girl, if the food in the Zhuangyuan Building is really made of gold, how can you still eat it? When my brother has money in the future, I must take Lianyi to the Zhuangyuan Building and order all the dishes, and we can eat whichever dish we want, okay? Cheng Zhong said. Although he is now a historian and has three taels of silver a month, if he really goes to the Zhuangyuan Building, I am afraid that most of it will be spent on it.
Cheng Lianyi is only six or seven years old, which is the age when parents spoil her in ordinary people, but because Cheng Zhong was sick before, Cheng Lianyi began to learn to take care of housework at a young age, and Cheng Zhong felt that she had lost a lot.
"By the way, Zhong'er, who is the girl next door? It seems to be a little bad for you. Liu asked. In the afternoon, Cheng Zhong and Xie Sicun were in a tense posture, and she could see it all.
"Yes, yes, who is that big sister, she looks so beautiful. Brother, will you let her be Lianyi's sister-in-law? Cheng Lianyi said with a twitter.
Hearing this, Cheng Zhong couldn't help but smile bitterly, be your sister-in-law? If I really marry her, I'm afraid I'll have to quarrel every day, and I guess I'll be angry with her in a few days.
"Don't talk nonsense, little ones." Liu said: "I still listen to your brother." ”
Liu was very curious about when Cheng Zhong met such a beautiful girl. Cheng Zhong has been sick before, and he has never even been out of Guangfulin City, and later the county test and the list have come out a few times, but it has only been a few days?
"Mother, she is my friend's sister. Me and her are probably eight characters rushing, and they will be pinched together. "Cheng Zhong doesn't know where he provoked Xie Sicun, you love your Lu Duoxun, and we didn't hinder you, can you be guilty of treating us like this with a nose is not a nose, and an eye is not an eye? Do you really think that if you look as beautiful as a fairy, others will lean on your face with a dead face? At the same time, Cheng Zhong also had envy of Lu Duoxun in his heart, this kid's life is really good, although this Xie Sicun has a bad temper, but that little look is really good-looking.
The next time I see Xie Jiangbo, I must tell him solemnly, let him give up that idea as soon as possible, and don't make himself seem to be in a hurry to think about something.
Thinking of Lu Duoxun, Cheng Zhong had another headache, he felt that he was now like a balloon that had been blown up, and the middle was all empty, and he couldn't touch it. But Lu Duoxun is like an aggressive rooster, he always wants to peck himself with his mouth, so what's the deal? If he really pecks him, then he still has to leak air?
Of course, Cheng Zhong also knows very well that Lu Duoxun can't avoid it, he just wants to buy more time, learn more, and not be too timid when the time comes.
After eating, Cheng Zhong began to fight at night again, youth is a capital, it would be a pity if it was wasted.
The night was dark, Xie Sicun couldn't help yawning, and Xiao Cui sat next to him, supporting his cheeks with his hands, and the chicken couldn't stop dozing off like pecking rice.
"Emily." Xie Sicun shouted, "You go to bed early." ”
Xiao Cui woke up, wiped a handful of saliva from the corner of her mouth, and said, "How can that be done?" Xiaocui has to wait for the young lady to sleep together. ”
Xie Sicun shook his head, "I'll be fine." ”
Xie Sicun closed the account book and rubbed his dry eyes tiredly. Although she is a daughter, Xie Sicun is so strong that many men can't keep up, and now she is already taking care of more and more business of the Xie family, but Xie Mengting is much more idle than before.
"Xiao Cui, what do you say he is doing now?" Xie Sicun suddenly asked with a crimson face.
"He? Who? The one with the surname Cheng? Xiao Cui had just woken up, and her head didn't turn for a while.
"Why did you mention him again? Begging for a beating, isn't it? Xie Sicun said.
"I was wrong, miss." Xiao Cui hurriedly smiled and begged for mercy and said: "But Xiao Cui heard that the surname Cheng is very powerful, and he took the case at the age of sixteen, a year earlier than Lu Gongzi." ”
"Hmph, he was able to win the case, isn't it because of his mentor Lord Hai? With his talent and learning, where can he compare with Lu Gongzi? Xie Sicun said disdainfully.
But Cui'er heard that the surname Cheng didn't know the county lord before, and he wasn't related to him. It was only after taking the case that he worshipped the county lord as a teacher. Xiao Cui retorted.
"You heard, you heard, why did you hear about this surname Cheng? Why do you always speak for him? Xie Sicun said unhappily: "Is it that your spring heart is moved?" Okay, let Mother Liu bring the foot-washing water, wash the feet and go to bed early. ”
Xie Sicun obviously didn't want to discuss anything about Cheng Zhong.
Xiaocui stood up helplessly, but now the lamp next door was still on, and through the window paper covered by the light, a figure could be clearly seen walking back and forth in the room with a scroll and reading.
"Miss, look, I'm afraid that this case surnamed Cheng is not lucky, look at what time it is, he is still studying." Xiao Cui said again.
Xie Sicun stood up and followed the direction of Xiaocui's finger, and sure enough, he saw Cheng Zhong's figure. I really didn't expect this person to be so serious.
What about him? Is he reading now? Xie Sicun couldn't help but turn her head, her eyes seemed to pass through the heavy night, and she looked into the county school.
