Chapter 7: You're Playing with Fire! Retribution comes too soon!

Xue Gongzi looked at the water lotus's hand. "What? Scared? ”

The water lotus let go of Xue Gongzi's clothes. "Suddenly, I heard that there were officers and soldiers in front of me who were a little panicked, and now it's okay."

Xue Gongzi picked up the chin of the water lotus with one finger, looked at the water lotus's eyes and said, "Shouldn't you take the opportunity to throw yourself into my arms now and say, 'Childe, what should I do?' People were scared to death. ’”

Water Lotus looked directly into Xue Gongzi's eyes and said, "If you want to find someone like that to play with you, you won't help me." ”

"Haha...... So guess what I'm going to do next? ”

"Give them directions."

"You want me to lure them somewhere else?"

"No, you'll tell them the right direction."

"Hahaha......" Xue Gongzi touched the face of the water lotus. Aunt Xiaocun, my master really likes you more and more. That...... Now that you have guessed what the master is going to do? Then the master will hand over this errand to you. After a while, if the official comes and asks, go out and tell them, where have I run away? ”

Water Lotus was stunned for a moment. "You're playing with fire!"

Xue Gongzi took a grape from the small table in the car and threw it in his mouth. "Master, I like to play with fire."

The water lotus took a deep breath. Don't panic! The more panicked you are, the easier it is for others to see it.

After a while, the water lotus and his party were stopped. An official's voice came in. "We're on an errand. Have you seen a couple of men riding horses with a woman? ”

Xue Gongzi looked at Shui Lianhua. Meaning: It's your turn.

Water Lotus took a bunch of grapes from the plate on the table with her left hand, pushed the car door with her right hand, looked at the official in front of her with excitement on her face, and said, "I see, I see." And they went there. Official, what did they do? ”

The questioning official looked at the water lotus and then at the grapes in her hand. You can still eat grapes this season. This person is either a young lady from a rich family who is idle and has nothing to do, pretending to be a boy and going out to play with her brother, or a young lover raised by the son of a rich family. "Thanks, brothers, let's go!"

Water Lotus shouted anxiously: "Hey, don't go!" What did they do? Hey, don't go! ”

The managers don't have time to take care of the water lotus now, and they are still in a hurry to catch someone and go to the Qi family to receive the reward!

Lotus closed the door and leaned against the wall. "Whew!"

Xue Gongzi pulled a grape from the water lotus and threw it into his mouth. "Not bad! The children can be taught! ”

The water lotus gave Xue Gongzi a white look.

"Hahaha...... Come on, come on! Let's move on to the topic we just picked up. How are you going to thank me? ”

When the water lotus decided to come to Xue Gongzi, she was not ready to retreat. But through these two contacts, Shui Lianhua felt that Xue Gongzi should like her temperament more than her body. "You've never been a farmer, have you?"

"Nope."

"Do you want to know how the farmhouse lives?"

"Okay. Let's play a game of the farmer and the little village girl first. However, the master told you that you don't want to use this trick to fool the master for a month. The master's interest in one thing will not exceed ten days at most. ”

"I see."

Xue Gongzi knocked on the carriage.

The little guy who was sitting with the coachman immediately pulled the car door and asked, "Little boy, what do you command?" ”

"Go buy a Zhuangzi. I want to be a farmer, sir. ”

"Yes! The small ones will do it. ”

More than an hour later, Water Lotus and his party returned to the courtyard that Xue Gongzi rented near the academy.

After getting out of the car, Xue Gongzi looked at the water lotus and said, "Okay." I don't need you to serve you. You go and figure out how to accompany the master to play a good game between the village girl and the farmer. ”

"Good. Childe, where do I live? ”

Xue Gongzi casually pointed to a room. "You can stay there."

"Good. Then I'll go back to the house. ”

"Hmm."

The next day, the Qi family searched for another day but did not find the water lotus.

In the evening, after sending all the people out, Mrs. Qi looked at Mrs. Qi and asked, "Master, what should I do now?" ”

Old lady Qi slapped the table angrily. "Those officials are all rice buckets! I can't even find anyone! ”

"Sir, it's useless to say this. If we can't find anyone tomorrow, then what will we tell Hao'er the day after tomorrow? Hao'er can't be angry now. ”

"You ask me, who do I ask?"

"Or, let's talk to Hao'er about the wrong eight characters?"

"Hao'er is so smart. As soon as you say it, he knows something is wrong. ”

"Then ......," Mrs. Qi wanted to say, what should she do, but she was afraid of being scolded. Then do you want to marry a different girl for Hao'er? Hao'er has never seen the water girl. ”

"Something else? How can other village girls have a good life for a water girl? I knew that I wouldn't tell Hao'er that the water girl was a village girl. If you don't tell Hao'er, then we can still marry Hao'er the daughter of a petty official now. Now if we marry Hao'er to an official lady, Hao'er can see it at a glance. ”

"Good life...... The village aunt ...... "Old Madam Qi's eyes lit up. "Sir, I think of someone."

"Who?"

"Zhou Juren, his sister."

Master Qi slapped his thigh. "That's right! is not only a village girl, but also a sister who lifts people. Go, you go and have the matchmaker called. Let her go and talk to the Zhou family early tomorrow morning. ”

"Good. Then if the matchmaker asks if she will marry Miss Zhou back as a wife or as a concubine? ”

"Of course it's a concubine. Let's talk about taking a concubine, not marrying a wife. ”

"This ...... Her brother is a lifter. ”

"Lifting people is a fart. Even if his brother is admitted to the Jinshi, he has to rely on our son's support. ”

"Yes. Then I'll arrange it. ”

"Hmm."

Old Madam Qi had just taken two steps before Old Madam Qi spoke again. "Wait. Since Miss Zhou will be brought in the day after tomorrow, then you will send more people to Zhou's house tomorrow to help. You don't have to come back at night. Just come back with Miss Zhou's sedan chair the day after tomorrow. ”

"I see." Mrs. Qi knew that Mrs. Qi was afraid that something would go wrong in the middle.

"Then you go."

"Okay."

As soon as Mrs. Qi took a step, she was stopped by Mrs. Qi again. "We all told Hao'er who the concubine we want to take for him? You ask the matchmaker to tell the Zhou family, and let Miss Zhou pretend to be a water girl first. ”

"Good. What else is there to instruct? ”

Old Lady Qi thought about it. "Not for the time being. I'll think about it again tomorrow. ”

"Then I'll arrange it."

"Go ahead."

The next day, the eldest nephew of the water lotus, Dunzi, thought that his sister-in-law would bring him meat buns back today, and after breakfast, he went to the village entrance to wait.

Seeing a carriage entering the village, Dunzi ran over. "Sister-in-law, are you back? Sister-in-law, you didn't forget to buy me meat buns, did you? ”

The coachman swung his whip at the pier. "Go, go, it's not your little aunt sitting in the car."

Dunzi scratched his head. "Not my little aunt? But my mother said that my little aunt will be back today? ”

The matchmaker opened the curtain and asked, "What's your little aunt's name?" ”

When Dunzi saw the matchmaker, he said loudly: "I know you." You sent a lot of things to my house that day. ”

"It turns out that you are the nephew of the water girl. You go back and tell your grandmother, I'll go find her when I'm done." ”

"Okay." Knock knock ran home and told Mrs. Jin what the matchmaker said. "Grandma, I'll go to the entrance of the village and wait for my sister-in-law."

"Wait." Mrs. Jin grabbed the pier. "You said that the lady who sent a bunch of things to our family that day brought a lot of things into our village with a lot of things?"

"Hmm. Grandma, I'm going to wait for my sister-in-law. ”

"Grandma is going with you." Mrs. Jin felt that something was wrong. It is said that the matchmaker of the Qi family should come to Qijia Village to their water house. How do you hear that Dunzi means going to someone else's house?

"Grandma, do you want to eat meat buns too?"

"Hmm."

Mrs. Jin led the pier out of the house and saw several carriages parked in front of Zhou's house. Mrs. Jin pulled the pier and walked over. Dunzi wanted to wait for the water lotus at the entrance of the village, but Mrs. Jin didn't let it.

As soon as Mrs. Jin entered the courtyard, she heard the matchmaker say to Zhou Dalang's father: "Congratulations to you, congratulations to you, Mrs. Qi has taken a fancy to your girl and wants her to be a concubine for Young Master Qi." ”

When Mrs. Jin heard this, she hurriedly pulled the pier and walked in. "Now that Mrs. Qi has seen Zhou Xiaohua, then return my granddaughter's concubine documents to me. Dunzi, go and ask your father and uncle to carry the Qi family's things over. Just go! ”
