Chapter 378: A Visitor from Far Away
Steward Zhu's determination to go out of the city was not so great.
Although not all of the people taken away by the official were his people, they accounted for most of them, but he was safe and sound.
Did the other party miss it, or did he put a long line to catch a big fish?
He was more suspicious of the latter.
At this time, choosing to go out of the city is not a wise choice, which is equivalent to taking the initiative to send the sight of those people.
If you have a place to stay, you might as well stay......
Steward Zhu looked at the cyan wine curtain trembling in the wind and snow from afar, and made up his mind.
Before the restaurant opened, a few house finches were jumping and foraging on the snow-covered bluestone pavement outside the door.
Suddenly, the thick cotton curtain was lifted, and a little maid in a red jacket walked out of the wine shop, followed by a handsome young man.
I don't know if I heard the movement or found someone, but a few house finches flew away in a panic.
Hongdou pursed his lips and said unhappily: "These house sparrows are becoming more and more thieves, aren't they just eating a few waves, and they actually ran away when they saw me." ”
She saw Steward Zhu at a glance, and sighed: "Aren't you the steward of Qianjinfang?" ”
Steward Zhu nodded slightly.
Hongdou turned his head and shouted: "Girl, that Zhu steward of Qianjinfang has come to join you." ”
Steward Zhu shook the corners of his mouth.
Although this little girl said that he came to the intention, but when she said this, she wanted to leave......
The cotton curtain was picked up by a maid in a lilac bikini.
The little maid stood at the door and said with a smile: "Steward Zhu, the girl invites you to come in." ”
Steward Zhu hesitated for a moment and walked in.
The lobby was warm, and a girl in a plain shirt sat at a table by the window, looking lazy.
Hearing the movement, she looked calm.
"Miss Luo." Steward Zhu handed over.
Luo Sheng looked at each other with a smile: "Steward Zhu has figured it out and plans to come to the wine shop to do things?" ”
When the female shopkeeper who was buried in sorting out the account books heard this, she looked at it vigilantly.
A person who has been a steward comes to work in a wine store, isn't the most suitable one to be the shopkeeper?
Hiss - does the owner think she is not doing well and is ready to change the shopkeeper?
No, she sorted out the account books carefully, and the recent records were specific to the time when each noble person came, isn't the owner still satisfied?
The female shopkeeper beat a drum in her heart, stared straight at Steward Zhu, and inadvertently put her hand on the iron abacus.
Steward Zhu's eyebrows couldn't help but move.
He had heard of Miss Luo's murderous name, why did a woman who seemed to be a good woman staring at him?
Suppressing the strangeness in his heart, Steward Zhu arched his hand and said: "The villain is no longer working in Qianjinfang now, if your store needs someone like the villain, I hope Miss Luo will take it in." ”
The female shopkeeper grabbed the iron abacus hard, and her expression was serious.
Luo Sheng smiled: "Our wine shop is doing a prosperous business, so we naturally need the help of a talent like Steward Zhu." ”
"I wonder what errands the villain can do?"
"There is still a lack of a bookkeeper to share the work of the shopkeeper."
The female shopkeeper shook her lips.
She doesn't have to be shared!
However, in the face of the smiling owner, she did not dare to protest.
That's it, guard against this person in the future, don't be robbed of your job.
"Thank you, Miss Luo, for taking you in."
Luo Sheng put his hand on his cheeks and asked casually: "Steward Zhu has been working in Qianjinfang for many years, why did he suddenly stop doing it?" ”
Steward Zhu looked ashamed: "Something happened to Qianjinfang, it was closed, and some people were dismissed......"
"I see." Luo Sheng nodded slightly, and then asked, "By the way, I don't know what Steward Zhu is called?" ”
"Just call me Zhu Wu."
"Zhu Wu—" Luo Sheng muttered, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "Good name." ”
As the county lord, the reason why she has an impression of Zhu Wu is because this person is Yang Zhun's subordinate, and she has seen the two of them fight.
Zhu Wu was very talented in martial arts, he was only a teenager at that time, and he was no longer inferior in fighting with Yang Zhun.
Such a person, twelve years later, became a gambling house manager on the surface, and secretly became the head of a killer organization.
She wanted to take a look at this person by her side, to see why he became like this, and whether it was still related to the Zhennan Palace.
"Coo'er, pack up a room in the east chamber for Zhu Wu to live in."
Kou Er nodded at Zhu Wu: "Come with me." ”
There was a wine shop where there was an extra person who did things and did not attract the attention of the drinkers, and the wine shop was full of customers every day.
After all, there is a fold of vegetables, and you won't be able to eat it when the wine store closes at the end of the year!
The drinkers were paying attention to another person.
King Kaiyang, who couldn't come to eat and drink every day, didn't come for two days.
Isn't it poor to eat?
I didn't dare to ask, I could only speculate secretly in my heart, and I couldn't solve my doubts until the wine shop closed.
Even Hongdou couldn't help muttering: "Girl, why didn't King Kaiyang come?" ”
Luo Sheng thought of the fine snow scattered by the persimmon tree that day, and thought of the big hand that blocked the snow for her, and smiled faintly: "Who knows, let's prepare for the New Year with peace of mind." ”
The atmosphere of the New Year in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is getting stronger and stronger, and seeing that the New Year has passed, some relatives have arrived.
Second Uncle Sheng took Sheng Dalang and Sheng Erlang's two nephews into Beijing.
Sheng Dalang and Sheng Erlang are famous, and they have to prepare for the spring of the coming year.
Like this kind of foreign candidates, all those who have the conditions will go to Beijing to settle down in advance, one is to be able to participate in the scientific examination in the best state, and another important reason is to visit the Great Confucian, make friends in the same year, and make a name for the examination.
Red beans rushed in like a whirlwind: "Girl, my uncle has arrived, bringing the eldest cousin and the second cousin, and you must not have imagined it!" ”
"Is it Su Yao?" Luo Sheng asked calmly.
Hongdou was stunned for a moment, and then glared at Kou'er: "Kou'er, did you say it to the girl?" ”
This little hoof, and it grabs the merit again!
Kou Er glanced at her: "I don't even know who Su Yao is, what to say to the girl." ”
Red Bean blinked, and then remembered that Kou'er didn't go to Jinsha with the girl in the first place.
Thinking about it like this, the little maid was satisfied, but then she became angry: "What is that broom star doing for the New Year!" ”
The girl has suffered such a loss when she is so old, and it is the broom that hurts the stars.
Luo Sheng smiled disappreciatively: "Su Yao is a famous talent, and the two cousins have won the promotion, so there is no reason for him not to be successful." The Sheng and Su families are good friends, and the second uncle went to Beijing to take care of the two cousins, so he naturally took more care of Su Yao. ”
Hongdou took a sip: "If it weren't for his girl, he wouldn't have had an accident at that time, how could he be embarrassed to go to the door of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion." Ah, he's not going to stay, is he? ”
"It shouldn't be, the second uncle left someone in the capital to arrange a place to live in the capital when he left Beijing last time." Luo Sheng got up and took the cloak handed by Kou'er, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”
In the flower hall, Governor Luo was chatting with Second Uncle Sheng.
Sheng Dalang and Sheng Erlang, who had seen the salute to Governor Luo, looked at Sheng Sanlang and were dumbfounded.
"Third brother, come here."
Sheng Saburo leaned over: "What did the second brother tell me to do?" ”
Sheng Erlang looked Sheng Saburo up and down, and asked in a low voice: "Third brother, you tell the truth, have you looked in the mirror these days?" ”
