Autumn. Although it is not as cold as the end of the year, it is also cool to see the sky, although there is still the dazzling sun, but there is absolutely no summer heat in the sky.

Xing County. Approaching noon, the street is full of people, and the uneven road surface, which is already narrow and not wide, is even more bustling.

The unique blue bricks and tiles of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, the pattern of the canal passing through the city, under the cover of the sky and clouds, have the flavor of a small bridge and flowing water.

In the crowd, a high-headed horse, a jingling ancient carriage, quickly attracted the attention of many onlookers who stopped and watched.

"Yo, isn't this the carriage of Xia Zhizhou's daughter?"

"Which Xia Zhizhou?"

"Which one else could there be? A few years ago, I tied the knot with the young shopkeeper of the Juyi pawnshop, and we also went to a banquet together, have you forgotten? ”

"Yes, yes, it's been three days and three nights, and almost all of the people in our county have gone."

"Isn't this carriage the marriage of the young shopkeeper's wife, look at this small window, this red and brown horse, this accessory, Quanxing County can't find the second one!"

"It's noon, if you're not at home to eat and drink, I don't know what this young shopkeeper and his wife are going to do?"

"I look at this number, eighty percent of them are going to Liyuanzi to listen to the play."

"Won't you, with your daughter? The Xia family and the Gu family are all heads and faces, and the official eunuch family will be so disregarding the etiquette law? ”

"Let's see."

Arguments, doubts, doubts.

Slowly, the crowd accompanying the carriage gathered more and more, and there was a tendency to close in. The carriage was still moving at a constant pace, there was no coachman, and there were only two ladies in the carriage.

The maid Xiuyun, through the bumpy and swaying brocade forging curtain, glimpsed around the carriage, looked in curiously, and almost put their heads in the rabble, subconsciously nervously pinched the placket of their upper body short hexagrams.

"Miss, let's go back, let's come out with such fanfare, the face of the young shopkeeper can't be hanged."

Xiuyun swallowed her saliva with concern, and looked at her own lady who was carelessly at the moment, took off the men's top hat on her head, and put it in her hand and kept playing with it.

As Miss Xia's personal maid, her most important task is to be by Miss's side at all times and obey all of Miss's arrangements, but she has followed her mother since she was a child, and the three outlines and five constants she received are that women can't show their heads in public, let alone men dress up in the garden to listen to the play.

Now that the city is full of storms, it is inevitable to go back with a whip.

"What are you afraid of, don't you just listen to a play, can you still eat us?"

"Besides, what's wrong with this world, only a man is allowed to have three wives and four concubines, fireworks and willow alleys, listen to operas and music, and women can only stay at home, and the door is not out of the door? Joke! What's wrong with the wind and rain in the city, I just want the city to know, I just want all the men in the world to see, and my daughter's family also has the right to go out of the house, equality and freedom! ”

Xiuyun stared blankly at the firm-eyed and indignant woman in front of her, as if she was in a different world: Is this still the knowledgeable young lady she knew?

Where did she think that this young lady was no longer Miss His.

At the dawn when Miss Xia accidentally entered the water and had a high fever all night, she woke up again and turned around to Qiao Jinxin, who was experiencing cyberbullying and was mentally devastated, and went to the rooftop to breathe but fell down.

Qiao Jinxin, who became Miss Xia and the young shopkeeper's wife, did not make a noise at first, but silently and secretly understood the various preferences and background of this Miss Xia, and continued to play this role according to her previous appearance.

After all, it's tiring to return to the reality that belongs to her, so it's better to settle down in this world where you don't know what, and calm down for the rest of your life.

But can it really be stable in this world?

Gu family's continuous birth, the bombardment of all kinds of rules and upbringing, the long kneeling of the ancestral hall overnight, the two doors of the four seasons of the year, the bitter and mean dialogue, the ubiquitous listening to the root of the wall, and the black poker face, the gloomy nominal husband, how many times at night, tossing and turning in the same bed, Qiao Jinxin As a modern woman in the 21st century, she is unwilling.

The first attempt to tear off the camouflage and have a complete showdown was this men's costume listening tour.

She knew that Miss Xia's dowry carriage was iconic in this small county, and she also knew that in Xingxian, a place with a big palm, the speed at which the news spread was amazing.

The gossip of powerful people is the most talked about by Bai Ding in the market, and the conversation after tea and dinner is not so much that these people come to see the diorama as to see the jokes.

The front of the pear garden was already full of people, and with the popularity brought by Qiao Jinxin's master and servant, it was instantly crowded a lot.

Qiao Jinxin opened the curtain and saw that he had arrived at his destination, sat down in front of him with a big grin, stopped the carriage with a "huh", and then jumped down from the carriage with a beautiful leap, stretched out his hand and pulled down Xiuyun.

Xiuyun got out of the car and saw a group of people looking at Wu Yangyang, her face turned red as soon as she "snorted", and she lowered her head and twisted the corners of her slightly long and wide men's clothes with her hands, which looked very unnatural.

This timid and delicate appearance, at a glance, knew that it was a daughter, and some onlookers immediately questioned it.

"Lang Lang Qiankun, what kind of physique does your daughter have to walk around the street in men's clothes?"

"That's right, it's shameless!"

The crowd chimed in.

"What's wrong with my daughter's house? Your mother was also a daughter before she gave birth to you. ”

Qiao Jinxin's fluttering sentence, the other party who choked stared dryly, muttered in his mouth, and just watched her lead Xiuyun inside.

The owner of the garden is also the head of the class, Yuan Guifeng, who is holding a fan at the moment, greeting every benefactor who comes to enjoy the light with a smile, and what he says is nothing more than those words: You are here, please inside, sit upstairs.

But when he arrived at Qiao Jinxin, he was directly blocked from the door.

"Young lady, young lady! Today, there are many male guests in our garden, and the box on the second floor is also full, please go back, if you want to listen to the play another day, let the little girl speak, Yuan must lead the pear orchard up and down, and sing a lobby meeting for you in your house, you can sing as long as you want, what do you think? ”

Qiao Jinxin looked at Yuan Guifeng with a flattering look on his face, just smiled, and didn't buy it.

"Shall I say no?"

The flat tone matched Qiao Jinxin's smiling expression, with a strong sense of threat.

Yuan Guifeng's face was embarrassed, after all, he couldn't afford to offend Qiao Jinxin's identity, but let her go up, and it was difficult to explain to the distinguished regulars upstairs.

"Isn't Boss Yuan just a matter of a box? I still have land there, it's quite spacious, more than enough for two people. ”

"Master Ma, this is not very good......

Yuan Guifeng still felt that it was inappropriate.

"What's wrong, this blue sky and white day, everyone is watching, but what's the problem with watching the same scene?"

This Ma Ye is dressed as a standard Beijing-style gentleman, with a dark robe and a navy blue short smock, all of which are made of high-quality brocade, accompanied by delicate and fine edges, which are low-key and luxurious. The white jade wrench in his hand, at a glance, is definitely not something that ordinary dignitaries can wear.

"That's right, it's still this brother who knows right from wrong."

Seeing that someone was speaking for her, Qiao Jinxin seemed very happy, but she did not shy away from seeing her at all, and she was also very close to this Ma Ye who met in Pingshui.

"If the two of you don't dislike it, how about going to the private room on the second floor with my master and servant to sit at the same table?"

Ma Ye is also very interested, and a stubborn master like him likes to be unruly the most, especially a woman, which is even more different. What's more, she is still his cousin who was serious and boring that day, Gu Weijun's wife. How can such two people get together and live together? Thinking of this, Ma Ye couldn't help but secretly look up and down again with curious and inquisitive eyes, and secretly laughed alone.

There was a new tea brewed when he sat down, Qiao Jinxin naturally took a clean cup upside down on a tea tray, lifted the teapot to fill it with a cup, and then reached out to raise it, Ma Ye reached out to take it with a polite face, who knew that Qiao Jinxin directly skipped his hand raised in mid-air next, picked up the cup and turned around directly to Xiuyun, who bowed his head respectfully and lowered his hand.

Seeing that this tea didn't mean anything to himself at all, Ma Ye retracted his hand stupidly, pretending to touch the standard hat on his head to relieve his embarrassment.

"Xiuyun, hurry up and have a drink to warm up."

Qiao Jinxin misunderstood that Xiuyun's trembling along the way was cold, and she thought that her unruly behavior all the way made Xiuyun scared all the way.

Xiuyun raised her head slightly, felt the hot and surprised gaze on the other side, and embarrassedly turned red again, and her words were not good: "Little, miss, drink it, Xiuyun is not cold." ”

"Isn't it cold? What's wrong with your face, so red, feverish? Really, there is a big temperature difference between day and night in early autumn, and I shouldn't have taken you out for a walk. ”

Qiao Jinxin stood up in annoyance and touched Xiuyun's forehead, Xiuyun subconsciously took a step back, but still didn't escape the excessive concern of her own young lady, and finally was forcibly pressed on the chair that Qiao Jinxin specially gave her to rest.

Ma Ye touched the jade wrench in his hand, looking at the interaction between the master and servant playfully, and felt more and more interesting about this brother and daughter-in-law.

"It's really rare to be so sympathetic to a subordinate like the young lady."

"Everyone is equal, and there is no distinction between the superior and the inferior."

At this time, the play had started, and Qiao Jinxin's attention was attracted by the excitement on the stage, and the answer was only blurted out subconsciously.

"Everyone, equal?"

Ma Ye carefully tasted these four words, gathered up a cynical attitude, and looked at this different woman again.

The last time I heard these four words was in the class of Dongdu Liuyang, the new school and the east, from the mouth of his classmate and best friend.

Loud and impassioned.

It's just that now things are not people, and people are safe?

But it is also a Western men's three-piece suit, which looks too wide on this petite and delicate body, and there is no man's spirit. It's a shame it's a woman.

Ma Ye lowered his head and sighed secretly.
