Chapter 29: Distrust
As Xu Zhaonan expected, it was Zheng Liangjing and the dog who came.
"I won't go in, there is someone at the door, just give me an order if you want anything."
The dog confessed, stretched out his hand and closed the door, but did not enter the house.
This is his territory, and he has arranged people, so he is not worried that Xu Zhaonan will be in danger, so he will leave very simply.
Zheng Liangjing first made a gesture when he entered the door, Xu Zhaonan waved his hand, invited him to sit down, poured tea and handed it over.
"I heard that Zheng Xiucai has something to thank me? I don't know why. ”
Zheng Liangjing is dressed cleanly, his face is calm, and his literati temperament is fully displayed, and he is a reader who is easy to make people feel good about his face.
"There's a lot to thank Miss Xu. The first is the kindness of help in the alley that day, if it weren't for the girl, I don't know how long I would have been lying there. ”
Xu Zhaonan's braids flicked left and right, "Zheng Xiucai is serious, but I really don't need to thank you for the effort." ”
Zheng Liangjing didn't argue, just respectfully picked up the tea with both hands and drank it all.
"Second, I want Miss Xie to introduce Guan Gongzi to me, which saved my life and saved the people of Maozhen from war."
Xu Zhaonan listened to these words in a fog, and she guessed that the last sentence might be related to the West City Wall, but what did Guan Gongzi mean by saving his life? What does all this have to do with you?!
"Zheng Xiucai's words make me not understand."
Zheng Liangjing laughed and opened his mouth to explain one by one, Xu Zhaonan understood the cause and effect, and then he didn't know what to say......
But it turned out that it was Guan Jin who took the initiative to contact Zheng Liangjing and helped him put pressure on the yamen, so as to avoid the disaster mentioned in the book.
When the two met, Guan Jin clearly informed Zheng Liangjing that it was Xu Zhaonan who saw that Zheng Liangjing was a good scholar, but he didn't know which way he offended before he suffered setbacks.
Xu Zhaonan: No, I didn't say it......
She felt very inexplicable in her heart, and when she thought that Guan Jin knew her whereabouts so well, she couldn't help but feel a little vigilant.
It's just that this is not the time to think about this matter, Xu Zhaonan had no choice but to suppress his doubts about Guan Jin first, and first stretched out his hand to stop Zheng Liangjing, who was still about to make a move, "Then why do you say that I saved your life?" ”
Zheng Liangjing hesitated for a moment, but what he said again was to solve Xu Zhaonan's thoughts.
"My Zheng family can't say that they are scholars, but there are three generations of scholars, and the most prominent of them is one of my cousins, who is the prefect of Liao County."
Xu Zhaonan was in high spirits and listened to him continue to speak.
"My cousin has the grace of all the children of the family......"
After saying this, Zheng Liangjing paused, and the expression on his face was extremely complicated, which showed the entanglement in his heart.
When Xu Zhaonan heard this, she also had some guesses, she lowered her eyes slightly, and said softly, "Did he leak the Qiuyu exam questions to you?" ”
"Where did the girl come from?"
Zheng Liangjing got up suddenly, and the pots and cups on the table collided with each other.
A male voice sounded outside the door, "Miss Nan has an order?" ”
"It's fine, I accidentally bumped into something."
Xu Zhaonan raised his voice to explain, and picked up the overturned cup in his hand.
"If you don't know what you don't know, you can't go wrong with the old saying."
Zheng Liangjing was silent for a moment, and then asked again: "Guan Gongzi also knows?" ”
"Don't you want me to tell him? He knew it sooner or later, didn't he know it all? ”
Speaking awkwardly, Xu Zhaonan raised his eyebrows.
She was strange at the beginning, and she mentioned Guan Jin when she opened her mouth, especially to emphasize how much Guan Jin attached importance to her words. When thanking her, he repeatedly praised her for her uprightness, and when she talked about herself, she was not afraid of power and asked for the people's life.
Although these words are a perfect fit together, there is always a sense of unreality.
But it turned out that she wanted to coax her to bring a message to Guan Jin, a bad word about Governor Zheng, and a good word for Zheng Liangjing!
Sure enough, it is a talent who will stand at the head of Wenchen in the future, but she still naively thinks that this person is young and young after all......
Looking at the calculations of this pair's hearts, if Xu Jingshu hadn't revealed her tone, I'm afraid she wouldn't have reacted so quickly.
Zheng Liangjing's mentality is really good, as if he didn't hear the deep meaning of Xu Zhaonan's words at all, but just put on a posture of making up his mind after deep thought.
"What Miss Xu said is that she is in the shadows. Because he was my cousin, I shouldn't have ...... However, the matter is very high, and the scourge of fraud in the field is far-reaching, and I have also advised my cousin, but to no avail.
As far as I know, there are already some students who know about this from somewhere, and are planning to plan a plan or two. ”
Xu Zhaonan nodded, indicating that he heard it, but he was silent and did not say anything about it.
She can't trust Zheng Liangjing, although at present, the other party has no reason to lie about such a big matter, but it is strange to tell her so easily.
However, because this information is in line with Xu Jingshu's words, she did not show a skeptical and questioning attitude.
Zheng Liangjing was not embarrassed, and then said a few words.
Just then, there was another knock on the door.
Xu Zhaonan thought it was the person arranged by the dog, so he replied, "It's okay." But as soon as her voice fell, she heard a very familiar cough.
"It's Guan, can you tell me to go in?"
Zheng Liangjing's face changed, obviously a little anxious and panicked, although it disappeared in only a moment. Then, this person opened the distance between him and Xu Zhaonan very neatly.
And Xu Zhaonan didn't notice his actions, just now she guessed that Guan Jin seemed to be "spying" on herself, and now this is confirmed?! Otherwise, how could Guan Jin have found this place?
Thinking of this, Xu Zhaonan stood up directly, walked to the door and pulled the door open.
She put out a very standard smile, "It turned out to be Guan Gongzi?" It's a coincidence, and I'm here to meet you. Come in! ”
After Xu Zhaonan finished speaking, he turned to one side, meaning to call Guan Jin into the house.
Guan Jin was keenly aware that her mood was wrong, and looked at her a few times, "Where are you uncomfortable?" ”
"No, I'm comfortable, my whole family is comfortable." Xu Zhaonan deepened his smile, "It's just that I look at Guan Gongzi's uncomfortable appearance, so I just want to rest here for a while." ”
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pushed Guan Jin.
is also because of the anger in her heart, this strength is not well controlled, Guan Jin was not only pushed into the room by her, but also staggered two steps and hit the table.
The unfortunate teapot and teacup were knocked over again, and one of the cups rolled to the ground with a "click".
Xu Zhaonan subconsciously shrank his neck, and half of the anger in his heart disappeared immediately.
"Well, I didn't mean to. I, I'll go first. ”
Not surprisingly, he fled again......
In the house, a figure suddenly appeared, reaching out to help Guan Jin.
As soon as Guan Jin waved his hand, he quickly disappeared.
And Zheng Liangjing stood in the corner with his head hanging the whole time, as if he didn't have long ears and eyes, and he was very quiet.
Guan Jin stroked his sleeve, and his tone was very cold, "I can save you, and I can send you to Zheng Ping again." Jung Yang-kyung, I don't need a disobedient dog. ”
When Xu Zhaonan went out of the city, he remembered that he had forgotten to look at the house, and he was too lazy to turn back, so he simply went home like this.
Thinking of what Zheng Liangjing said, thinking that she was going to see Guan Jin, Xu Zhaonan's mood was not very good.
When she dragged into the house, Zhou also happened to pull Mianmian back with a cross eyebrow.
Xu Zhaonan looked at it and smiled.
Her fat sister is very soft to her family, but she is also a little bully to the outside, her age, including those who are two or three years older than her, has basically been beaten by her with her fist.
Because other people's children are always injured badly, Zhou's will always take care of the loss, and every once in a while, he will take Mianmian to the door to apologize.
At the moment, it seems that it is time to return from someone's house.
Xu Zhaonan ran a few steps quickly, bent down and reached out to pick up his sister, and nodded her little nose, "What trouble did you make today?" ”
Mianmian pinched his little finger and smiled.
Zhou was angry from the sidelines, "What else can you do?" Beat the little pillar! ”
"Pillars? The one at Great-Grandpa's house? ”
"Isn't it!"
Zhou crossed his waist, "You talk about it, you talk about it!" Originally, because of marriage...... In that matter, your great-grandfather complained about our family, and she beat Xiaozhu again, can there be a good one?! ”
Mianmian pouted, "He's bad, hit him!" ”
"Hey, you little Nier!"
Zhou was so angry that he pinched the little girl's face, "Why is he bad, ah?" Even if he's bad, won't you come home to me?! ”
Hearing this, Xu Zhaonan hurriedly stopped, "Mother, don't scold Mianmian, you can't blame her for this." If you teach her this, what will she do if she is bullied in the future? ”
Zhou's words came out in a hurry, if she hadn't been so angry in the past, it was completely because she had committed a crime at Old Man Xu's place and made her eat a good meal.
But she was persuaded by Xu Zhaonan, and she could listen to it, so she closed her mouth, just glared at Mianmian again, and then turned around to go to the stove.
"Hey, mother, I forgot to go to see the house today, and I'll go back tomorrow." Xu Zhaonan hurriedly shouted.
Zhou's temperament was quite big and waved his hand, and his footsteps did not stop.
The two sisters glanced at each other, and sighed like a little adult, making Xu Zhaonan choke enough.
"Why did Xiaozhu mess with you?"
Mianmian raised her eyes to look at her, and her little eyes were very dissatisfied.
This is fresh, Xu Zhaonan said in his heart.
She shook her arms and whispered, "Good sister, good sister, tell my sister quickly, my sister wants to know~"
"Hehehehe", the cotton quilt touched the itchy flesh, and suddenly laughed, and she hurriedly covered her mouth with her little hands.
Xu Zhaonan's chin touched her forehead, "Good sister, if you don't say it, my sister will tickle you!" ”
Mianmian frowned unhappily, "Bad sister!" ”
Yo! Is this a big deal?
Xu Zhaonan was about to ask, but Mianmian had already continued.
"Xiaozhu said that my sister wants to marry a rich man, not my father and mother, and I don't want cotton."
Xu Zhaonan was stunned, and was about to ask again, but Mianmian reached out and hugged her neck, and said aggrievedly: "Sister can't do without Mianmian, sister can't marry Zheng, hmm, be a concubine." ”
Well?! Zheng what? What concubine?!
Xu Zhaonan squinted, and it seemed that Xiaozhu Nawa was going to be beaten again......
