Chapter 67: Night Alley

Early the next morning, Wang Ji asked Mrs. An for Mrs. An, and when the second and third sisters-in-law withdrew, they smiled and talked with Mrs. An about the gossip about going to Daxiangguo Temple to repay their vows yesterday.

Mrs. An listened attentively.

When Wang Ji said that when he came out of Granny Chen's house, he happened to meet Huo Wencan and Li Qingning, and Mrs. Xie, who had been looking at her daughter and listening with a smile, turned her head to look at Mrs. An.

Wang Ji laughed while talking about everyone's expressions and demeanors very carefully, and when Li Ran stared at a road god, Huo Wencan immediately asked people to buy it, Mrs. Xie coughed with a choked smile.

Mrs. An also laughed, and while laughing, she patted Wang Ji, who was laughing non-stop, looked at Mrs. Xie and said, "The Hejian County Palace's Mansion is also passable." ”

"It's just too high and powerful, and I'm just afraid of making taboos." Mrs. Xie didn't know what to think, and frowned slightly.

"That's all trivial, as long as the kid is doing well, everything else is just incidental." Mrs. An's gentle voice revealed a faint sink. "Everything else is good, but Princess Du's vision is a little worse."

"Well, fortunately, the third brother of the Huo family is a person who can make up his mind." Mrs. Xie smiled.

Wang Ji was next to Mrs. An, listening attentively to her mother-in-law and A-Niang talking, hesitated, and couldn't help but say: "The three ladies of the Li family are one by one." ”

Mrs. An laughed and patted Wang Yi gently, "Ah Ran's family affairs, the prince has spoken, and he only listens to her own meaning." Over there in the Marquis of Chang'an, the old lady and the lady are unbearable, but they are not inferior, don't worry. ”

"Hmm!" Wang Ji heard the first half of what the wife said, and her eyebrows rose, the prince's words, she had just heard of it, and it was really good to have this sentence.

"Still a little reluctant." Mrs. Xie was stunned for a moment and frowned.

"Look first, Ah Ran is still young." Mrs. An smiled heartily.

……………………

In the back garden of Caofu, Mrs. Wu was crooked in the water pavilion by the lake, blowing a cool breeze, looking at the lotus leaves and lotus flowers and worrying.

At the beginning of March, as soon as the incident outside Jinmingchi came out, she was sad for several nights and did not fall asleep, and went to Kaibao Temple to do a few days of rituals to pray for blessings.

Later, when she got the letter, her heart fell, and then she heard some bits and pieces of the letter, and her worries were gone, but she was worried, but it was added layer by layer.

That child was much better than she thought, what a girl, just wonderful!

When she returned to the capital, first the Lu Guogong Mansion, and then the third brother of the Huo family!

The Lu Guogong Mansion is a strong rival, how good is the third brother of the Huo family! Little ladies love him like that, but that girl is no ordinary little lady......

Fortunately, Princess Du's vision is limited, and at this point, she still avoids this girl, well, even if she doesn't have this bloodline that she can't avoid, that girl like this, I'm afraid she won't be able to get into her eyes.

That's good, no matter how good the third brother of the Huo family is, this girl's family marries into her mother-in-law's family, and the real day and night are opposite to each other, it is the aunt, not the husband.

That girl is a smart person, even if she doesn't understand it now, she will understand it with a little dial, well, she has to find someone to dial her.

As for the Lu State Mansion......

Alas, the Mansion of Lu Guo has always been steep and steep, and she still doesn't know anything about his house......

Although I don't know anything, people and things are all there.

There are a lot of benefits to the Lu Guogong Mansion, and the second master is the future Guogong, but their family also has their family's difficulties.

Seriously, their Cao family is no worse than their Lu State Mansion, and the third brother of their family is stronger than their second master, who is weak, but the eldest of his family is very strong......

Well, compared with the three families, they are still the best Cao family!

If it's better than their Cao family, it's okay, if it's not better than their Cao family, then she has to fight hard.

But where do you start?

The Marquis of Chang'an Mansion is definitely not good, the first time she thought of this, she didn't think about the Marquis of Chang'an, but in addition to the Marquis of Chang'an, where else can she start?

The boy had to do it himself.

From that child's words, he is such an elder, the movement is too big, the third brother's skin is too thin, and the three girls and the four girls can't talk to her......

If you want to talk to her, it seems to be the sixth sister of the Wang family, the Wang family......

Old Madam Wu's eyes lit up.

The Wang family is a good place to start!

The old lady of the Wang family, speaking of which, but the only relative on the girl's mother's side is still an elder!

The Wang family used to be close to Renzong, and now, the first one to be good friends with this girl is also their family, this insight and vision, this confidence, tsk!

Speaking of which, this Wang family is the real heirloom family, over the years, she has wholeheartedly brought the Cao family to the Wang family, but her generation can't do it, if she can marry that child in, there will be another generation, and the foundation of the Cao family will be laid......

Thinking far again.

The most important thing about the benefit of the Wang family is that their family does not have a young man of the same age!

The more Mrs. Wu thought about it, the more she felt that this was the best place to start, sat up straight, picked up the fan and shook it slowly, and when she thought about it, she had to hurry up, which was not too fast.

Fayun Temple is holding a lecture in the past two days......

"Where's Lao Yang?"

Mrs. Wu thought of it, and immediately asked her confidant Mama Yang to change her clothes, go to Wang's house, and ask Mrs. An to go to Fayun Temple tomorrow to listen to the scriptures and speak.

……………………

Li Ran rested for a few days before going out again and going to Beiwazi to listen to Taonong singing a little song.

Tao Nong has been welcoming more than ten miles outside the city since that day, until now, only someone in the middle has given Zhou E a word, saying that she will invite the girl to play when she is busy for a while.

Li Ran heard that she had recently sung a little song in Beiwazi, so she asked someone to book a private room to listen to her sing a little song.

Taonong's little song is the most charming of all the songs and operas Li Ran has heard.

As for sending someone to book a private room in advance, it came from Mama Fu's euphemistic reminder:

If the girl hadn't sent someone to book it in advance, and said she would have gone as soon as she went, it would have caused trouble.

Li Ran suddenly remembered what Huo Wencan said, when she first returned to the lotus shed to listen to the play, the big chase was upside down, and she immediately went to the private room first.

In the past, she didn't have pre-set conditions, but now that she has, it is convenient for her to be with others and more convenient for herself.

After Tao Nong finished singing a little song, he entered Li Ran's private room.

Zhou E pointed to a silver kettle on the table and motioned to her, "The soup prepared for you, pour it yourself." ”

Momonon poured two bowls and drank it, and let out a long sigh of relief.

Without waiting for her to speak, Li Ran smiled and said, "If you have nothing to do at night, I will invite you to dinner and go to the Eight Immortals Tower." ”

"It stands to reason that I should ...... That's okay, the lotus leaf chicken of the Eight Immortal Towers, I like to eat it the most. Tao Nong didn't finish his sentence, but met Li Ran's raised eyebrows, and changed his words while laughing.

"Let's go." Zhou E stood up first.

Tao Nong let Li Ran, followed at the end, came out together, and walked towards the Eight Immortals Tower.

The street was bustling, it was the most lively time, Tao Nong and Li Ran side by side, walking and strolling, and soon entered the Eight Immortals Building.

The three of them each ordered their favorite dishes, and Li Ran didn't ask for wine, just a few soups that were good for their throats.

"I'm not afraid of alcohol." Watching Dr. Chajiu go out, Tao Nong looked at Li Ran and smiled.

"I heard you sing twice a day now?" Zhou E asked.

Tao Nong smiled and nodded, "It's only two, when I first arrived in the capital in the past, I sang three or four times a day, I'm lazy, two times a day, it's worth asking General Zhou." ”

"What's wrong? At the beginning of March, you didn't win a sum of money, and you said that you could rest for another month or two. Li Ran said with concern.

"It's her business, isn't it?" Zhou E was a little clear, and pouted at Li Ran.

"How can it be her business? It's my own business. Tao Nong waved his hand at Li Ran, "It's me who is anxious, anxious to have a letter, and I scattered silver everywhere to inquire, and I sprinkled a little more, and I faked the account." ”

Li Ran's two eyebrows were raised.

"Don't think about it, it's because of my temper, let me tell you, back then, in the second year or the third year I came to the capital, once, just to know whether the white tiger general was male or female, I spent three hundred taels of silver, and I finally got convinced."

"Male and female?" Zhou E blurted out.

"Male!" Momino replied very pleasantly.

Li Ran glared at her, "You're too bad at living, right?" ”

"If she can live, can she still live by singing little songs every day?" Zhou E glanced at Tao Nong.

Momonon giggled, "People are alive, and the word arbitrariness is the rarest, this is my mother's words." My mother has been talking nonsense all her life, just this sentence, well. ”

Li Ran took a deep breath, spit out half of it, and laughed.

The word arbitrariness is indeed the rarest.

Has she ever been arbitrary?

She's been willful, as if she hasn't been able to do anything wanton.

"You sing twice a day like this, are you in debt? Do you owe too much? Li Ran hesitated, but still asked.

"It's almost over, sing like this again......" Momonon pinched his fingers and calculated, "In half a month, it will be over." ”

"That's a serious debt." Zhou E was speechless.

"Let's not talk about this, otherwise, we still have to order the bar, the peach blossom wine in the Eight Immortals Building, it tastes good." Momino is a little greedy.

"Good. What about you? Li Ran responded happily and looked at Zhou E, in the past, she went out with her and never drank.

"Two or three glasses are fine." Zhou E met Li Ran's gaze and said with a smile, "Once upon a time, before going into battle, I liked to drink a few glasses. ”

Li Ran asked for wine, the three of them talked and laughed, drank more than a pound of wine, came out of the Eight Immortals Building, Tao Nong called a car, went back to the residence, Li Ran and Zhou E went to Wanshouguan one after the other.

After the longevity view, when I walked out of the bright lights, there was a deep alley house in front of me.

Zhou E looked at Li Ran, Li Ran paused, looked at the dark alley from the red lantern of the noodle restaurant at the mouth of the alley, was stunned for a while, raised her feet and moved forward, "Let's go a little longer." ”

Four or five steps away from the noodle shop at the mouth of the alley, under the dim lantern light, Xie Ze's little servant Shi Nan met Li Ran's gaze and greeted him with a chin that seemed to be absent.

Li Ran stood still and subconsciously looked at the noodle restaurant.

Zhou E followed Shi Nan's gaze and also looked at the noodle restaurant.

Li Ran looked at it for a moment, lowered her eyes, took a few steps forward, lifted her skirt slightly, crossed the threshold, and entered the noodle restaurant.

It was already late at this time, and in the small noodle restaurant, Xie Ze was the only one, facing the door, sitting at the innermost table.

Li Ran walked straight to Xie Ze's table and sat down opposite Xie Ze.

Xie Ze, who was pinching the cup and slowly sipping the wine, raised his eyes to look at Li Ran, and for a moment, lowered his eyes and continued to drink.

"Do you want anything, girl?" A skinny old woman with a bent waist moved over, looked at Li Ran, and asked questions.

"No, thank you." Li Ranchong bowed slightly.

The old woman dragged on.

Xie Ze raised his eyes to look at Li Ran again, Li Ran met his gaze and looked at him carefully, the gloom emanating from his body was suffocating.

Xie Ze put down the glass, reached out and took one from the stack of wine glasses buckled in the tray on the table, poured a glass of wine, and pushed it in front of Li Ran.

Li Ran was very surprised, stunned for a moment, reached out and pinched the cup, took a sip, and then remembered to raise it to Xie Ze.

Xie Ze ignored her, lowered his eyes, and slowly sipped the wine, as if she didn't exist.

Li Ran took a sip of wine and looked at Xie Ze with a good look.

The old woman dragged back and forth, sealed the fire, extinguished the lantern outside the door, left only the light in the room on the table of Xie Ze and Li Ran, dragged her steps, lifted the curtain and entered the back kitchen.

Darkness crept in through the alley and stopped in front of the bean light.

Zhou E folded her arms to her chest, leaned against the wall opposite the noodle shop, and looked at the two people in the noodle shop under the bean light.

She could only see Li Ran, who was facing away from her, the tooth-white shirt was very bright in the dim light, and as for General Xie opposite Li Ran, he was dressed in black, as if he had blended into the darkness.

General Xie hung his head and lowered his eyes, Zhou E still didn't want to look directly at the half-drooping face, she always felt that as long as she looked over, General Xie would immediately notice it and force her to look over.

Zhou E's gaze fell on Li Ran's back, and she had been sitting upright...... Well, too, when he faced General Xie, he was also upright and straight.

General Xie is a person who must be confronted with full attention, and it is impossible not to be nervous about him.

This girl's courage is rare.

Xie Ze finished drinking a glass of wine, pinched the wine jug, and Li Ran pushed his empty glass forward.

Xie Ze raised his eyes to look at Li Ran, met Li Ran's gaze, and for a moment, lowered his eyes, poured wine for himself, and poured wine for Li Ran's cup.

There was not much wine in the jug, and after two or three glasses, the jug was empty, Xie Ze stood up and walked out slowly.

Li Ran followed behind Xie Ze and also came out of the noodle shop.

The alley was dark and quiet.

Xie Ze's footsteps paused slightly, and he looked back at Li Ran, "Let's go." ”

Li Ran looked up at him and snorted.

The two walked quietly in the dark and silent alley, one after the other.

The moon in mid-May, round, hung diagonally over the alley.

Li Ran hung her head slightly, looking at Xie Ze who was walking in front of her, the hand behind her back, the black short sword hanging from her waist, the black long shirt, and the black shoes.

He was more lonely and lonely than himself.

The long alley is very short.

Xie Ze stood at the mouth of the alley, looking at the light of Xiaoyan Temple in front of him, and looked back at Li Ran, as if he wanted to say something, but swallowed it again and raised his hand.

Li Ran looked at the little girl and the horse that came out of nowhere in surprise, watched Xie Ze get on the horse, rode away, slowly turned around, and looked at Zhou E standing behind her, and her car.

Zhou E turned sideways and pointed to the cart.

Li Ran got into the car, the car swayed, and after Xiaoyan Temple, Li Ran relieved his breath and came to his senses.

Just now, she seemed to be walking in a dream, a dark and gloomy dream, but she felt steady and stable.
