Chapter 111: You know my strengths, I know your depths

Cao Yu didn't find Ling Xiu'er until he chased out of the moat, he looked at the familiar and unfamiliar capital, and said in his heart that she would go there.

In fact, Ling Xiu'er didn't go there, she took a long detour from the Mao's dyeing workshop to go home. But when she thought that it was her and Cao Yu's home, Ling Xiuer felt aggrieved.

Who is she desperate to make money for?

When he was in Tu County, he was entangled in earning Cao Yu to catch the exam, and now Cao Yu is no longer as bad as before when he is an official, but Ling Xiuer also knows that the official is not so easy to be an official. She can't forget the embarrassment of Cao Yu being slandered and imprisoned, asking for money but not money, and power without power. Nowadays, making money is all about preventing such incidents from happening again. Cao Yu disliked her for showing her face outside, imagine that woman was unwilling to be raised.

The more Ling Xiu'er thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, and she kicked a stone at her feet in anger, only to hear the sound of "oops", Ling Xiu'er raised her head, and the stone smashed on Zhang Ze impartially.

She looked around, and she actually walked to Zhang's mansion.

Seeing Ling Xiu'er, Zhang Ze was also surprised. In order to avoid suspicion, and also to prevent the relationship between him and Cao Yu from deteriorating, Zhang Ze has always deliberately avoided Ling Xiu'er, and the two have not seen each other since the last embroidery vote ended.

Ling Xiu'er hurriedly apologized, "Master Zhang, I didn't mean to, I didn't hurt you, right?" ”

Zhang Ze shook his head, but took out a bag of dim sum and handed it to Ling Xiu'er, "Qi Fangzhai's pastries, you taste them." ”

Ling Xiu'er definitely didn't think that this snack was prepared by Zhang Ze for her from time to time, and outsiders laughed at Zhang Ze's greed when they saw it, and they carried snacks wherever they went.

Ling Xiu'er untied the oiled paper bag and stuffed a piece into her mouth. The sweet taste spread in her mouth, and her mood suddenly improved a lot.

Zhang Ze saw a smile on her face, and he was also happy, "This is lotus cake, Brother Cao knows that shop, tell him if you are greedy." ”

"Hmph, why should I ask her to buy me things when I have hands and feet? I can't stand it. After speaking, Ling Xiu'er stuffed another piece into her mouth, chewing hard as if she was biting Cao Yu.

Seeing this, Zhang Ze guessed that the two were quarreling, and the fan bone was against his chin, and he didn't know what to say to persuade reconciliation, "Brother Cao, he is not good at words, and he ...... to you otherwise."

"Sister Xiu'er!"

Zhang Ze didn't finish his words, and was interrupted by Fan Meihua's loud voice.

Fan Meihua lives in Zhang's house these days, and her eyes are a lot rounder. She learned from her subordinates that Zhang Ze was going out, so she thought that she could catch up with him and join him, but she didn't expect to run into him at the door.

However, Zhang Ze was still standing next to Ling Xiu'er, and Fan Meihua's mood was not very beautiful, she hurriedly shouted to highlight her existence, and forcefully inserted herself between the two.

"Sister Xiu'er, where are you going with Brother Ze?"

Seeing the shrewdness in Fan Meihua's eyes, Ling Xiu'er understood her thoughts very well and explained: "We met by chance, where are you going?" ”

"I'll just hang out." Saying that, Fan Meihua leaned towards Zhang Ze, "Brother Ze, if you want to go out, take me with you, I haven't had a good time in the capital." ”

"Yes, yes, Master Zhang, Meihua has been coming to your mansion for a while, and she should really take her for a visit."

Zhang Ze smiled a little far-fetched, "Xiu'er is right. ”

"Shall we go now, then?" Fan Meihua didn't care about taking Zhang Ze's arm and pulling him to leave, suddenly she seemed to remember something, and said to Ling Xiu'er: "Sister Xiu'er, this time I escorted Tian Silk from Tu County, it was sent by my brother, and it is estimated that it will arrive tomorrow night." ”

"Okay, I see, thank you."

"You're welcome, Sister Xiu'er, I'll go with Brother Ze first."

Ling Xiu'er stood in place and waved her hand at the two people who were far away, she could clearly see that Zhang Ze's figure was ten years old, and the corners of her mouth raised a smile, Fan Meihua's blessings were really not something that anyone could bear.

Ling Xiu'er walked out while holding the dim sum, turned a corner, and saw that she was about to reach her alley, when she suddenly collided with a hurried person, and the dim sum fell to the ground.

Ling Xiu'er couldn't help but feel angry in her heart, and raised her eyes to see that the person who hit her was none other than Cao Yu.

Cao Yu found Ling Xiu'er from outside the city and didn't find Ling Xiu'er in the city, guessing that she might have gone home, but when she saw that the door of her house was locked, she hurried to find it, but she didn't expect to meet her at the mouth of the alley.

Ling Xiu'er ignored Cao Yu and squatted down to pick up the dropped dim sum. Cao Yu thought that she was angry with herself and wanted to eat, so she grabbed her hand and was not allowed to pick it up.

"Lady, it's all my fault, don't be angry."

Staring at Cao Yu's rushing face, Ling Xiu'er felt that this apology was insincere, as if she was unreasonable and forced Cao Yu to comply. She was even more unhappy in her heart, and replied: "The husband is bigger than the sky, what can you do wrong?" ”

After speaking, he ignored him, lowered his head and continued to pick up.

"Don't pick it up!"

Cao Yu's tone was cold and hard, and her eyes looking at Ling Xiu'er were full of anger, but it was only for a moment, the cold eyes disappeared, and Cao Yu changed her gentle and coercive tone, "Let the husband pick it up, you can't dirty the lady's hands." ”

Taking advantage of Ling Xiu'er's surprise, Cao Yu quickly picked up the residue of her heart, wrapped it in oiled paper, and threw it into the garbage heap next to her. Then he took Ling Xiu'er's hand and asked, "Does the lady still want to eat Qi Fangzhai's dim sum?" For the husband, I went to buy it for the lady. ”

Ling Xiu'er was a little confused, Cao Yu's trick changed his face faster than turning a book, but he was still **sick, he was still avoiding the problem, trying to cover up the old contradictions between the two with a new topic.

Ling Xiu'er had already seen Cao Yu's routine clearly, she didn't get into it, she shook off Cao Yu's hand and pretended to be okay and went home.

Cao Yu didn't stand where he was, and he didn't go, he loved and hated this little woman for a while.

It wasn't until he heard the familiar sound of the door closing that Cao Yu took action and went to Qi Fangzhai to buy snacks for Ling Xiu'er.

This scene was clearly seen by Ling Xiu'er, who was lying on the wall. Although she still cared that Cao Yu didn't tell her about Huang Ping, she was still in a much cheerful mood in view of his good behavior. Humming a little song, he went back to the room to prepare a salute for Cao Yu.

She had heard about the floods in the south, and many people were drowned. Cao Yu doesn't know when she will come back. If it weren't for the critical period of Tian Silk sales in the capital, she would definitely go with Cao Yu.

Ling Xiu'er thought of this, and her face was a little sad. She took out the embroidery circle and threaded the needle, and prepared to embroider a peace bag for Cao Yu, and wait for tomorrow to go to the temple to ask for a talisman to put inside, and bless Cao Yu with a smooth journey.

Cao Yu walked home after buying dim sum from Qi Fangzhai, and met Su Shi who came back from drinking at the winery halfway. Smelling the fragrance of Su's wine, I thought that she must have been drinking a lot in the wine shop.

Several taverns near the Maojia Dyeing Workshop all know that the beauty of the Su family has come to the capital, and no matter where she goes, she will definitely be able to buy value-for-money wine. However, Su Shi also has a soft spot for taverns, she recently went to the world's first tavern in the backstreet of Mao's dyeing workshop to buy peach blossom brew, I heard that the tavern proprietress is also a woman, and the peach blossom brew can get drunk to death.

Su Shi carried two jars of wine and greeted Cao Yu from afar. Seeing the snack in his hand, he blinked, "It's for Xiu'er's sister?" ”
