Chapter 155: Why Are You Here?
Mei Zhigao glared and said, "Why do we want to call you?" Why didn't you tell us to follow you when you left? ”
Murong Baotong let out a snort from Qiong's nose, she wanted Li Tao to see herself at first sight, how could she ask others to take away Li Tao's gaze!
Murong Baotong stopped Ruoxue at the top of the stairs, she took two steps back to let Ruoxue come up, and followed her towards the house.
"Why are you back?"
"Where have you been?"
Ruoxue and Murong Baotong asked in unison what they wanted to know.
"You speak first."
"We went to the Asoka Temple."
"When I arrived at the dock, Brother Tao had already gone ashore, and I don't know where to go?" Murong Baotong spoke.
Ruohong and Mei Zhigao followed them into the house
"Why did the eldest lady come back so early?" Peony saw Ruoxue enter the house and hurriedly stood up and put down a picture book in her hand.
When Ruoxue went out, she brought Lianxin Dantang, Rice Pearl, and Gongyue and two guards, leaving Peony and Pomegranate to look at the house, and leaving two other guards to watch the door.
Although the inn is its own, there are other guests living downstairs, and there are villains inside, so they steal some things while no one comes in the house.
"I've had lunch, and they're still early!" Murong Baotong said.
Peony was reminded by her to answer and said, "Miss, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" ”
"Ate it, ate it outside." Ruohong said, she looked in the room and said, "What about the pomegranate?" ”
"She's napping inside."
Murong Baotong asked Ruoxue if she could find Li Tao, she wanted to know where Li Tao had gone, and she wanted to suddenly appear in front of him and surprise him.
Ruoxue didn't say anything to death, but only said to try, and asked Lian Xin to go to the shopkeeper Yao, and asked him to instruct the two guys to go out and find it.
"I also asked people to inquire, but no one has seen Brother Tao at all."
Murong Baotong thought that Ruoxue had a good way, so it turned out that she was also asking people to go out to inquire like her.
Ruoxue said: "The people who live here are familiar with the local area, and it is easier to find people than ours. ”
Mei Zhigao stood against the corner of the table, holding the album that the peony had just placed here, and turned a few pages, all of which were embroidered patterns.
Hearing Murong Baotong questioning Ruoxue's words, he said: "If you can't find it, it's because your people are useless, and the people in our family who don't bring a watch can't find it." ”
"Cut."
Murong Baotong rolled his eyes and said, "I'll see when they can find Brother Tao." ”
"Definitely much faster than your people."
Murong Baotong didn't quarrel with Mei Zhigao anymore, and pulled Ruohong to ask what fun places there were in the Asoka Temple.
She and Ruohong are very compatible, because they are a few years younger than her, like her sister, and they are more easy-going and smart than her sister.
Murong Baotong was willing to laugh with Ruohong.
After a while, the shopkeeper Yao replied, "In the morning, Zheng Laojiu said that he was going to Qingyun Tower for a banquet, and the villain thought that he might know where the prince of Jin Zhang was, so he sent someone to Qingyun Tower to look for him, and it turned out that the prince of Jin Zhang and the sixth master of the Zheng family were really there,......"
Murong Baotong said: "You just say that Brother Tao is in Qingyun Tower, why are you talking so much nonsense?!" ”
Mei Zhigao teased: "Let's just say that your people are useless, you still don't believe it, what else do you have to say now?" ”
"I don't have the time to argue with you."
Murong Baotong stood up and rewarded Yao's shopkeeper with ten taels of silver, and said to Ruohong that he would listen to her talk about the scenery of Asoka Temple in the evening, so he hurriedly took the maid away.
Li Tao and Zheng Hao went ashore early in the morning, but they didn't enter the city, and they ran back and forth in the suburbs on horseback for an unknown number of times before they sneaked into the city.
After staying on the boat for more than a month, Li Tao's legs were a little weak, and as soon as he got ashore, he rode a horse for half a day before he felt better.
They asked for good wine and food in Qingyun Building, but before they could eat it, Zheng Laojiu found them and ate with them.
During the banquet, Zheng Laojiu was attentive to Li Tao and Zheng Hao, pouring wine and cloth vegetables, talking to compliment them, and telling the two of them the jokes they heard, which made the two laugh.
Li Tao and Zheng Hao knew that he had something to ask for, and they didn't poke it, but just drank and followed him with a smile.
After eating the wine and food, a guy came in and said that someone was looking for Li Tao and asked him to go out to see him.
Li Tao thought that Ruoxue might be looking for him, so he followed the guy downstairs.
When Li Tao left, Zheng Hao said: "You don't stay at home, what are you doing here to block me?" Expecting to get something from me is in the wrong place. ”
Zheng Laojiu is a concubine in the second room of the Zheng family, and he is not treated well at home, but he is just a person who has something to eat and does not die of hunger.
Zheng Laojiu heard him talking to himself, hurriedly picked up the hem of his clothes and knelt on the ground, and said, "Sixth brother, have pity on me!" Just give me a bite to eat, I don't take the goods from you, I just want to be an errand runner by your side, if you squeak something, I will run for you like a dog. ”
He swallowed his saliva, stuck out his tongue and barked twice like a dog, and when he saw Zheng Hao laughing, he said again: "You also know that my aunt has no foundation, not even a maid, and that little monthly money is not enough to take care of people."
I just beg my brother to take me in! Give me a place to stay, and I promise to serve the sixth brother wholeheartedly! ”
"Why not!"
Zheng Hao asked him to go to Uncle Changfang's house to find something to do, he said that the uncle didn't look down on him, and he didn't care when he saw him, Zheng Hao was begged by him and couldn't, so he only said that he should follow and be an entourage.
Li Tao followed the guy downstairs, went out and saw a carriage parked not far away, and when he saw the person standing next to him, he was also startled, "Why are you here?" ”
"Surprised?"
Murong Baotong ran to Li Tao's side, pulled his sleeve, and looked at him with a smile.
"It's a scare, okay."
"Giggle......
Murong Baotong laughed, making a sound like a silver bell, she pulled Li Tao to the street, and said as she walked, "Do you know? I walked from the capital to Jinling for a total of 26 days, and it was very difficult to walk over mountains and mountains along the way......"
"How could the princess agree to you coming out and running around?" Li Tao said,
"How can there be any running around!"
Murong Baotong told Li Tao how she pestered her aunt and came to Jinling from the capital.
There was a smug look in his words, like a general who had won a battle.
"Why did you come to Ningbo again?" Li Tao stood on his feet and asked the previous question again.
Murong Baotong knew that he was going to ask this, and thought that she would tell him later, she wanted to cover up this topic in other words, but he didn't think about it, so he asked again.
Murong Baotong said with some resentment that she saw Li Tao's letter to Li Ying, and knew that Mei Ruoxue was going to come to Ningbo to discuss business with him, so she came with her.
"Where is she?"
"She? You said that the young lady of the Mei family! She lives at the Yuelai Inn. Shall we go find her? Murong Baotong said.
