Chapter 152: The Rich
Jiang Shi frowned and looked at Xie Yan, and then glanced at Song Xiaochi next to him, Song Xiaochi was a little helpless, she wanted to find a chance to tell Xie Yan that she would be separated from him in the city, but Jiang Shi had been sitting in her carriage, and she naturally had to take her carriage away if she wanted to leave, so the matter dragged on.
Looking at Jiang's meaning now, doesn't she suspect that Xie Yan doesn't go to live in her house because of her own reasons?
"Auntie is serious, I naturally don't have any dissatisfaction with you......"
"In that case, let's go back together, shall we?" Jiang interrupted Xie Yan's words and could not be refuted.
"I really have something to do." Xie Yan was unmoved.
"Second cousin, what's the matter with you? You're leaving before you even see my dad, and my dad will definitely be unhappy if he finds out, and you're rude like this! ”
Qu Wenshu is as direct as ever.
Jiang glanced at Qu Wenshu with a relieved gaze, this daughter can finally talk about her heart once.
Xie Yan said: "It's late now, it's rude for me to come to the door empty-handed, and when I settle down, I'll find a time to visit my uncle."
Jiang frowned, although Xie Yan's words were impeccable, how could she let Xie Yan live outside.
Xie Yan understood his aunt's temperament, and knew that these few words alone could not discourage her from letting himself live in her house, so he took the opportunity to tease Qu Xinghui and whispered to Jiang: "The clouds rise, the rain falls, and the stones come out."
Jiang Shi was stunned and looked at Xie Yan fixedly, and Xie Yan nodded at her.
Xie Yan's words were extremely low, and only Song Xiaochi, Qu Wenshu, and Qu Xinghui, who were closest to the two, heard it.
It's just that Qu Xinghui can't speak, and along the way, Song Xiaochi is quite familiar with this kid, and knows that although he can't speak, his ears can hear it.
However, he naturally would not say Xie Yan's words.
Song Xiaochi thought that Qu Wenshu, a big girl, would be very surprised to ask something like "Second cousin, what are you talking about, why don't I understand", but this time Qu Wenshu was unexpected, she didn't speak.
Song Xiaochi was sure that Qu Wenshu had heard Xie Yan's words, because after Xie Yan finished speaking, the look on her face was a little surprised, and she seemed to be thoughtful.
At the intersection, seeing Jiang and the two children walk to the gate of Qufu, after seeing the people of Qufu coming out anxiously and surprised, Xie Yan said, "Let's go."
Now with them are Cheng Lao and his son, Tu Shizhu, and Yan Lei.
Tu Shizhu and Yan Lei had already said before that they would follow Xie Yan and wait for Xie Yan to send them.
What Song Xiaochi thought before was that these two people probably saw that Xie Yan was Jiang's nephew, and based on Jiang's identity, Xie Yan's background must not be low, and they followed Xie Yan to climb to the nobles, so instead of losing money, they were lucky.
But Xie Yan refused to stay in Qu Mansion, Song Xiaochi specially observed the faces of Tu Shizhu and Yan Lei for this reason, if the two of them were hesitant or dissatisfied with this, Song Xiaochi felt that these two could not stay.
But now it seems that they are not so shallow, but what they think and what their character is, these will have to be proved later.
It's just that I don't know what Xie Yan wants to do with these two people, Song Xiaochi doesn't think that Xie Yan just wants to accept two people.
"What are you thinking? Ignore people too? ”
Suddenly, Xie Yan lifted the curtain of the car, and a gust of cold wind blew in from outside, making Song Xiaochi come back from his contemplation.
Now, the Tu Shizhu is driving the mule cart, the Cheng family's father and son and Yan Lei are all on the mule cart, and Song Xiaochi, Coral, and Lotus Root are riding in the carriage driven by Xie Yan.
"What did you say?" Song Xiaochi asked hurriedly.
"What are you thinking?" Xie Yan did not answer the rhetorical question.
"I'm thinking about your cousin." Song Xiaochi Road.
"What do you want her to do?" Xie Yan was surprised, and suddenly thought of something as he spoke, and turned his head to look at her carefully, as if he wanted to see a flower on her face.
Song Xiaochi was inexplicably looked at by him, wiped his face with his hand, and asked Coral and Lotus Root, "Is there something on my face?" ”
"The girl is so good-looking, there is something on her face." The lotus root is quick to speak.
Coral shook her head.
Xie Yan said: "You don't have anything on your face, I'm looking to see if you have eaten any acid?"
Song Xiaochi was stunned, and when he saw the narrow smile on his face, he realized what he was referring to, and glanced at him, this is a guy who thinks highly of himself.
"I think what you just said to Mrs. Ngee An Hou is very strange...... I thought that Miss Qu was going to ask, but she didn't ask, and she felt a little surprised. ”
Song Xiaochi guessed that Xie Yan's background must be either rich or noble, and Yi'an Hou is a noble family, the words he said may be related to some major secrets, and it is best not to mention it when she doesn't know anything.
So she was vague, and her focus wasn't on what he said anyway.
"Although Wen Shu nagged a little, she was born noble after all."
Xie Yan said, changing the topic, "I'll talk about this later, the most urgent thing for us now is to find an inn to live in." ”
Eventually, the group stopped at a medium-sized inn.
"Wait a minute." Xie Yan said to the carriage, then jumped out of the carriage and walked towards Ling Yue Qianzhuang next to the inn.
"Girl, the son has gone to the money bank." The lotus root opened the curtain and said in surprise when she saw Xie Yan walking into the bank.
"What is he doing in the bank?" Is it silver? But does he have a silver ticket?
After a while, Xie Yan came out, walked to the carriage, and reached over to pull Song Xiaochi out of the carriage.
Over there, Cheng Lao's father and son, Tu Shizhu, and Yan Lei had already gotten out of the carriage and waited on the side.
Xie Yan beckoned everyone to enter the inn together, "Let's stay here tonight, and go out tomorrow to inquire when the guard of Maoyuan Mansion will recruit troops, and it should be time." ”
Song Xiaochi was stunned, recruiting? Could it be that he is ready to enlist in the army?
Xie Yan looked at her surprised look and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll tell you slowly."
Just as the innkeeper came out, the words were temporarily interrupted.
After registering the guest room, Song Xiaochi was about to take out the silver, when he saw that a silver ingot of five taels had been placed on the counter, which was put by Xie Yan.
Song Xiaochi looked at him, didn't this guy have no money?
"I forgot, it turns out that I am also a rich man, and I only remembered it when I saw it just now." Xie Yan said.
Song Xiaochi didn't believe what he said, who can forget it if they have money or not.
But it's always good that he has silver, at least she doesn't have to worry about sitting on a mountain of empty food.
Speaking of sitting and eating the empty mountain, Song Xiaochi suddenly remembered the red fruit in the Xuan bag, this day is about to be warm, and the red fruit will not be sold again, but it will have to wait until next winter.
