Chapter 81: Curtain Call 1
Zhang Mingzhu followed closely behind, and Ji Xiang, who was still in a hurry, didn't know that Wang and Lin Wuyu were talking about the gossip between the two, and as soon as she tilted her head, she went to Aunt Lian's house.
"Didn't you go to find Brother Chen?" Zhang Mingzhu bit her lip, and after thinking about it, she sneaked to Aunt Lian's door.
Ji Xiang stood inside, even his aunt stood next to him, and Ah Tao helped clean up the house, which could be regarded as repaying the master and servant for their interruptions in the past few days.
"Why are you here, have you eaten? I've just done this, why don't you come and have a bite to eat? Aunt Lian dragged Ji Xiang's clothes to eat together, Ah Tao put down the rag, complied with Aunt Lian, moved the stool, wiped it, "The dish is ready, auntie, I'll call Lian He and Mother-in-law." ”
Surprised to look at Ah Tao, who had been integrated with this pastoral life, Ji Xiang didn't hold back, and looked at Zhang Mingzhu out of the corner of his eye. With this tracking technology, there is no need to hide at all. The daughter and maid of Yuqing Restaurant, one followed her like a thief, and the other had already started to do farm work, and she had lost her twisted attitude.
"Aunt Lian, I really don't need to. Lian Zhihe, why are you back, today is not Xiu Mu. Lian Zhi and his chin were headed, his eyes were not bright, but he still waved and greeted Ji Xiang.
Aunt Lian said distressedly: "The weather is sometimes cold and sometimes hot, and the child is greedy for cold and dyed with wind cold." Mr. specially allowed him to come back for repairs, and in half a month it will be the semester exam, and I don't know if I can survive this body. ”
The semester exam is different from what I knew before. I've only heard of the imperial examination, spring exams and the like, what is the exam this semester.
Instinctively scumbag reaction, Ji Xiang will always automatically block the exam. Now she was a little curious, she was about to ask Lian Zhihe, and suddenly remembered that she was here for business.
"Aunt Lian, I actually came to ask you for something." Aunt Lian grabbed Ji Xiang's hand, and a smile spread on her face. This kid, what he said, the neighbors, said what he didn't ask for, but if the aunt helped, just say it.
Unexpectedly, even her aunt's categorical cut, Ji Xiang whispered a few words to her. Even her aunt looked at her unexpectedly, her eyes were entangled.
"It's not that my aunt doesn't help, it's just that this matter is a pain for Caidie. You have such a good relationship with her, how can you fall into the well. ”
Ji Xiang covered Aunt Lian's mouth and looked left and right, "Auntie, what are you doing so loudly." ”
What they were talking about, what Ji Xiang told Aunt Lian, Zhang Mingzhu didn't hear. But what even the aunt said is clear and clear. Ji Xiang plans to do something to Zhou Caidie, aren't they boasting of Jin Lan, is it true as others say, this Zhou Caidie is not good-looking, Ji Xiang is friendly on the surface but disgusted with Zhou Caidie behind his back.
Then Ji Xiang can't get used to it this time, is it because Shi Hui's pursuit of Zhou Caidie made Ji Xiang jealous.
This damn woman, with Brother Chen, she is still not satisfied, water-based Yanghua. No wonder I often see the two of them going out these days, it turns out that they are fooling around.
Over there, Ji Xiang said a few more words, but even the aunt had a long memory and didn't make a fuss.
Zhang Mingzhu thought he knew the truth, and hurriedly ran away when Ji Xiang turned around to come out. Seeing that figure, Ji Xiang hooked the corners of his mouth and fought with her?
Over there, Ah Tao sat down to eat, and Ji Xiang pulled Aunt Lian to the side. "Xiang'er, do your mother-in-law know about this?"
Seeing this girl shaking her head, Aunt Lian had an uneasy expression on her face. "My aunt doesn't like that Zhang Mingzhu either, but it's arranged by your mother-in-law, and it's always not good for me to drive people away."
Besides, Ah Tao is quite capable, and she helps her in big and small things. If you suddenly say that you will drive people away, you will not be able to do it.
"Auntie, where did I let you drive her away. Ah Tao still lives with you, it's not my family Yunxiang won't come back for a while, I just want Zhang Mingzhu to live in. ”
Even the aunt sighed for a while, Yunxiang is a good baby, and she is good-looking. At that time, many people in the village stretched their necks and remembered, if they weren't afraid of Wang and Chen Jie'an, it was estimated that the scene of the quarrel at the door could also be seen.
"Xiang'er, Li Mazi from the village, came to me two days ago and muttered to me, saying why Yunxiang is not there. He's like that, he's lazy to eat, but he's quite good at it. ”
mentioned a few words of Yunxiang, and both of them sighed silently.
Finally mentioning the interest, Ji Xiang mentioned Caidie. This is the last step, and it needs the help of Aunt Lian. Aunt Lian has a good relationship with Zhou Yu's family, and she wants Aunt Zhou to know that Zhou Caidie is not only in debt but also has a face that has returned to her previous ugly appearance.
Zhou Yu likes Caidie, in the final analysis, he is greedy for that face and Caidie's money.
Seeing Aunt Lian nodding with his own eyes, Ji Xiang took his leave. When she went out, she subconsciously looked at the village, and Chen Xie An said that she was going to see her old friend, and she didn't know which side was sacred.
His mind kept letting go, and when he saw the scenery on the side clearly, Ji Xiang had unconsciously arrived at the boundary monument of Yun'an Village. Surrounding the village is a stream, the people in the village call it Xitan, occasionally people come to fish at night, carrying lanterns, like wandering lonely ghosts.
The smell of rice came from every house, and there were a few wooden stools under the locust tree, and Ji Xiang used to sit and drag his cheeks.
His gaze was unfocused, and he gradually looked into the distance. The fog drifted in a haze, and the glow of the clouds converged. The man in the bamboo-blue robe wore a bamboo hat with a basket on his back, and in her hand was a sickle with a silver blade.
The man kept his head down, and his body was as lacking as a pine and cypress. Ji Xiang couldn't help but stare at her, if it weren't for the clothes being too unfamiliar, she would have thought it was Chen Jiean. There were several embarrassments of recognizing the wrong person, and she didn't dare to stand up and wave right away.
Until Chen Jiean's boots appeared in front of her, the sickle was received into the back basket. The bamboo hat was taken off, and the angular outline crossed the Phnom Penh, he smiled and stretched out his palm, "Xiang'er, I'm back." ”
Impulsive! Pounding!
At first, it stopped abruptly, and at the end of the drum beat played randomly, Ji Xiang felt that her eardrums were bulging, as if someone was blowing on it inside, she didn't seem to hear Chen Jiean's other sounds, her neck stiffened, her joints moved old, and most of the day passed, Ji Xiang's hands were still in the air.
Pia's moment, time seems to be unblocked. Ji Xiang opened Chen Jie'an heavily, and in the other party's dull and confused eyes, he smiled and said in a strange voice: "Brother, you are finally back!" ”
The former was stunned for a moment, and tried to think about why he didn't put his hand on it romantically, but called him brother. Swallowing her saliva and constantly touching her hair to hide her nervousness, what the hell was she flustered about, it wasn't that she hadn't held hands before.
It's just that there is no special waiting for people to come back like now, and there is an illusion of Wangfu Stone at the entrance of the village alone.
Chen Xie An shook his head helplessly, and then raised his legs forward. Motioning to Ji Xiang, who was stunned, to follow, he asked again: "Waited for a long time?" Why don't you eat it first? ”
I don't know how to wait for myself, it's just inexplicable. Ji Xiang felt the heat on his face and shook his head, "No, I'm just a little full, go out for a walk to eat." Didn't you see a friend? Didn't bring him back. ”
It's just that you haven't seen him yet. Chen Xie An didn't explain, and after nodding, Ji Xiang talked about the shop.
He thought about it, he could use the small courtyard he had just bought as a shop, and he chose the courtyard near Beifang, which happened to be quiet in the middle of nowhere.
After discussing, Ji Xiang asked Chen Xie to take her to see it tomorrow and decorate it by the way. During this period, the flower field and desserts were also determined.
Back in the courtyard, when Zhang Mingzhu turned around, he was full of tears. She looked at Chen Jie'an, and her lips opened. "Brother Chen, what should I do, my father is sick."
It's really better to be a person, I originally wanted to keep Zhang Mingzhu by my side to prevent accidents when the time comes. Now that Uncle Zhang is sick, he naturally has to go back.
Uncle Zhang is still good to her, even if she is a daughter slave, her three views are also positive. asked what the situation was, Zhang Mingzhu ignored it, and stared at Chen Jie'an with a pair of beautiful eyes, as if asking him to give an explanation.
"Miss Zhang, is your father a nuisance to my family?" Ji Xiang moved his mouth quickly, thought in his heart, and said it. "Then why do you look at my father-in-law, I don't know, I still think that he is your enemy who killed his father."
"No, I just don't know what to do, here, Brother Chen is my only backbone." It's so cold, Ji Xiang hugged her shoulders and stepped aside, why is she and Chen Jie'an together a deep brotherhood, Zhang Mingzhu and others can have a bitter love scene.
It's not fair. At night, you must read the book about the cultivation of the female protagonist, how to have a spark of love with the male protagonist.
teased himself, and then looked back at Chen Jie'an, who was in the center of his gaze. The beauty had such eager eyes, Chen Jie'an actually tilted his head.
"Brother Chen, can you accompany me to see my father? He needs us. The weak Zhang Mingzhu begged, but Chen Xie shook his head, "Busy, I can lend you money and take the carriage of other people in the village." ”
"Brother Chen, please help me, my father must be sick because of my marriage. If you can accompany me back, tell him that if you are willing to marry me, he will definitely ......" Zhang Mingzhu blurted out in a hurry, his father has always hoped that he would be happy, and he had to marry Meng Tian in order to atone for his sins, and now, as long as Chen Jie'an is willing to go back with her......
Everyone was stunned by this remark, only Ji Xiang was still biting his fingers, and Chen Jiean's indifferent eyes were not the same as the appearance of looking at her. For women he doesn't love, he does it more ruthlessly than anyone else.
"I already have a family, I hope Miss Zhang won't talk this kind of nonsense." What else did Zhang Mingzhu say, Chen Jie'an had already moved to Ji Xiang's side, "I think Ling's father's illness should be very serious, and please Miss pack up your things immediately, and I will send you back with Xiang'er." ”
It's to get rid of her. Why, she wanted to go crazy, Chen Jie'an's cold eyes discouraged her.
"Okay." She hung her head, what else could she do, she was just a disgusting young lady in Chen Jie'an's heart.
Where can Ji Xiang compare to her, why would Brother Chen choose this kind of woman. She couldn't figure it out, and she wouldn't give up.
After Zhang Mingzhu left, Ji Xiang looked at the table full of dishes and said tentatively: "Xianggong, you can eat something and leave, in fact, there is no hurry." ”
"Hungry?"
"No, I'm going to feed the old cow something. Sister Wuyu, and your flashlight to lend me, let's go, Xianggong, there is no delay! ”
