Chapter 22: The Trap
"Aze, it's such a coincidence, why are you here?" Li Yueshu looked at the comer.
Xia Liyun looked at the person who came and then at Li Yueshu, the two really looked like they knew each other, and Li Yueshu still had a touch of surprise on her face when she saw the person.
"Cousin Yueshu, I met with a few classmates in Jinmei Building to catch up, I haven't seen my cousin for a long time, I didn't expect to meet me when I went out today." The young man put away his fan and made a salute.
Li Yueshu introduced to Xia Liyun: "Liyun, this is my cousin Weng Ce. β
There are also many kinds of cousins and brothers, Li Yueshu and Weng Ce are not cousins and brothers, but distant cousins.
Xia Liyun looked at Weng Ce, Weng Ce's face is somewhat similar to Wang Xiaojian, both of them are like a full moon, but their temperament is tougher than Wang Xiaojian's, and they are also dignified.
Weng Ce cast his eyes at Xia Liyun and smiled politely, Xia Liyun was very polite and opened her gaze, only to listen to Li Yueshu teach Weng Ce: "Cousin, it's not my cousin who wants to talk about you, what kind of place is Jin Meilou, you are a scholar, how can you run to such a place?" β
Weng Ce was not annoyed by the lesson at all but gave it up, and patiently explained: "My cousin misunderstood, just because it was a friend who did the game, I am very gracious, I will definitely have a sense of proportion I am a reader, what should be done and what should not be done, I know in my heart, of course, thank you for my cousin's teaching, my cousin taught me." β
Li Yueshu turned her anger into laughter at this time, and said: "You are going to Jinmeilou, just in time, do you recognize my uncle Wang Xiaojian?" β
"The second son of Wang is my friend, how can I listen to my cousin, he is also in Jinmei Building? No, the second son never came to a place like Jinmeilou. β
"It's because my family Ah Jian never comes, so he came, and Sister Liyun and I are worried about him," Li Yueshu said and introduced Xia Liyun, "Ah Ce, this is my uncle's concubine Liyun, Ah Ce, can you take my sister Liyun to Jinmei Building to see Ah Jian, if you see Ah Jian, let him come back with my family Liyun, since you are Ah Jian's friend, he always listens to your words, and we women are not good to rush into Jinmei Lou......
Weng Ce readily agreed.
He said: "Understand, cousin, don't worry, those sons and masters often take the female dependents of the family to see the world in Jinmei Building, sit in the private room upstairs, order some fruit plates and snacks, and call it 'passing class', I will treat Sister Liyun as the female dependent of our Weng family, and bring it in to have a class, and no one in Jinmei Lou will doubt it." β
said and looked at Xia Liyun again: "When my sister goes in with me, don't say it's the second son's concubine, just say it's my sister, if you see the second son for a while, bring the second son back, if you don't see the second son, I will send Sister Liyun out again, does my cousin think it's feasible?" β
"It's feasible, it's great to have my cousin here." Li Yueshu smiled like a sigh of relief, pushed Xia Liyun next to Weng Ce and said, "This will trouble my cousin, Liyun, you hurry up and take Ah Jian home, don't worry, Jinxin and I are waiting for you here." β
Xia Liyun always felt that something was wrong, but Li Yueshu urged tightly, and Weng Ce had already walked in the direction of Jin Meilou.
She didn't have much time to think, and was pushed hard by Li Yueshu, so she instinctively followed Weng Ce and walked towards Jin Meilou.
Jin Meilou is like a paradise for Xia Liyun, singing and laughing, beautiful women like clouds, dazzling.
Xia Liyun followed Weng Ce to the second floor, thinking that it was no wonder that Wang Xiaojian was lukewarm to her, it turned out that she was lingering in Jinmei Building. If you linger in this kind of place a lot, how can you look at the ladies at home?
The wives and concubines of serious families are naturally not as interesting as the girls in Jinmeilou.
Xia Liyun was indignant in her heart, and she didn't notice it for a while, but followed Weng Ce to the second floor.
"Gongzi Weng, where is this?" Xia Liyun couldn't help but be scared when she looked at the closed doors of the rooms, and the laughter and cries of various women came out of them.
"Didn't you say go to a private room?" Xia Liyun asked nervously.
Weng Ce opened the fan in his hand, and said while shaking: "But I looked around the lobby just now, and I didn't see the figure of the second son of the Wang family." You're here to find a husband, and you're not here to work, so there's no need to go to a private room to spend, right? β
Xia Liyun felt justified, and stepped up to catch up with Weng Ce: "Then is my father-in-law here?" β
"Just look for it."
Xia Liyun followed Weng Ce deeper and deeper, and before she knew it, she was already in the innermost room of the corridor.
"My father-in-law is here? How does Gongzi Weng know that my father-in-law is here? Is my father-in-law really here? Before Xia Liyun could finish asking, Weng Ce pushed open the door with one hand and pulled her in with the other.
"Xianggong?" Xia Liyun walked towards the house, and the strong aroma in the room made her dizzy.
Behind her, a hand rested on her shoulder.
"Xianggong!"
Xia Liyun looked back excitedly and saw that it was Weng Ce.
"Gongzi Weng." Xia Liyun looked behind Weng Ce, and the door was already closed, and it was still bolted.
Xia Liyun had a bad premonition in her heart, she wanted to go out, but Weng Ce didn't allow it.
"My father-in-law is not here, let's leave quickly. Forget it, I'm not looking for my father-in-law, I'm going to meet my sister-in-law. β
Weng Ce grabbed Xia Liyun's hand and said with a smile: "Can't you see it?" It's a trap. β
Xia Liyun was stunned.
"My cousin has long seen that you are not pleasing to the eye, and she has arranged this bureau a long time ago. I just don't know which day I gave you to me. I didn't expect to give you to me today. It's better to pick up the sun than to hit the sun, then I will live up to my cousin's good intentions. β
Xia Liyun was so frightened that she retreated again and again.
Weng Ce pressed forward step by step, with a rather dignified smile: "Although the second son of the Wang family is known as the most beautiful man in Qidu, I don't think I'm inferior to him at all." Miss Liyun will find out if you try it. β
"Someone, help!" Xia Liyun shouted.
Her shouts and deserted flight further aroused Weng Ce's interest.
β¦β¦
Weng Ce froze when he saw the red plum-like blood stains.
"You're still ......"
Looking at Xia Liyun who was trembling, Weng Ce picked up a treasure, and scolded Wang Xiaojian for being a useless coward, while doing bad things again.
Xia Liyun was tossed twice in a row, and it wasn't over.
Weng Ce left, and from time to time new people came in the room.
Xia Liyun also couldn't remember how many people came in.
People who come and go always mutter, "You're new here, aren't you?" New arrivals are like that. If you get used to it for a long time, you won't be afraid. Take a look at Yan'er Cui'er in Jinmei Building...... Which ones weren't like you in the first place? β
"I'm not a girl from Jin Meilou, I'm the concubine of Wang Xiaojian, the second son of the Wang family......"
Xia Liyun kept repeating this sentence in a daze, some people thought she was talking, and some people thought she was talking nonsense.
Those benefactors took this sentence as a joke, as a joke, and took it outside to spread it.
This sentence soon spread in Qidu.
The Wang family and the Shen family also heard the rumors.
The Shen family sent someone to the Wang family to ask for a letter, but the reply from the Wang family was nothing, and Aunt Yun stayed in the mansion.
The Shen family no longer asked about the matter.
In Renhoutang, Wang Xiaojian and Shen Changping spoke alone.
"I have sent the people of the Shen family away for Xianggong, don't worry, since I am married to Xianggong, my heart with Xianggong is together. When the sky fell, I helped Xianggong carry it together. Shen Changping's sincere appearance made Wang Xiaojian unable to say anything, would he still abandon Shen Changping for Xia Liyun? Shen Changping is the authentic eldest lady of the Shen family, what is Xia Liyun, although Wang Xiaojian suspects that Xia Liyun's encounter is Shen Changping's hand at the moment.
"Although my parents have been appeased, Cousin Yun is indeed gone, missing, and not in the mansion, is Cousin Yun really in Jinmei Building? How could she go to Jin Mei Lou? She was fine in Renhoutang because she never came back after giving matcha to the eldest lady......"
Shen Changping's words reminded Wang Xiaojian that compared with Shen Changping, Li Yueshu was more likely to attack Xia Liyun.
Wang Xiaojian hurriedly walked out, Shen Changping called out to him and asked him: "Xianggong needs to go to Jinmeilou to confirm, is that person Cousin Yun?" β
It would be terrible if it was confirmed.
confirmed that it was his Wang Xiaojian's woman, and he suffered this great humiliation in Jinmeilou, so how will he Wang Xiaojian be a man in Qidu in the future? Do you want to become an official?
"Let's go and confirm, if it's really Liyun, she is your cousin after all, and she is the niece of Lord Yue. You can't be ruined by others outside in such an unclear way. β
I always have to give an explanation to the Shen family.
After marrying a good person to the Wang family, he encountered an accident, if the Shen family was held accountable-
"Xianggong, I have already said that since I have married into the Wang family, I must take care of the interests of the Wang family. Xianggong don't think about the Shen family's side, isn't there me on the Shen family's side? β
Wang Xiaojian looked at Shen Changping, and Shen Changping gave him a firm look.
Wang Xiaojian seemed to understand Shen Changping's meaning somewhat.
"Thank you, lady."
Wang Xiaojian's heart was a lot easier, he already had an idea in his heart, so he walked quickly to Li Yueshu's side.
Li Yueshu seems to have waited for Wang Xiaojian for a long time.
As soon as Wang Xiaojian came, she said frankly: "Aunt Yun has ruined the reputation of the Wang family, and even more ruined your reputation, uncle, what does Uncle plan to do with her?" It's to bring her back from Jin Meilou and let her continue to be your concubineβ"
Before Li Yueshu could finish speaking, she was slapped by Wang Xiaojian.
Li Yueshu was not sad at all, she just felt happy.
Thinking of what happened to Xia Liyun, she only received this light slap, Li Yueshu felt that it was worth it.
"When I marry a wife and take a concubine, you are unhappy. You have a hundred ways to take revenge, you shouldn't joke about the reputation of the Wang family, have you thought about it for me, I have such an ugly thing, how can I gain a foothold in officialdom in the future? What a woman's opinion! β
Wang Xiaojian was aggressive, and Li Yueshu's heart sank.
It turned out that Aunt Yun had no weight in Wang Xiaojian's heart, and all he was worried about was his face.
Li Yueshu didn't know how to feel for a while, and a chill rose in her heart-
Renhoutang, Shen Changping looked up at the roof and said, "The people on the roof come down!" β
