At night, Wen Shijiao stood by the window and practiced calligraphy.

The girl bent slightly, straightened her back, held the sleeve of her dress with one hand, held the brush in the other, and wrote on the rice paper.

After a while, the girl put the pen down.

Turned around and sat down: "Rujiang." ”

Ru Jiang responded: "What does Miss command?" ”

Wen Shijiao thought for a while, and then slowly spoke: "You go to find out in Youzhou City tomorrow, can there be a lady with an innocent family, it doesn't hurt to be older, the key is that people should be good, don't have a crooked heart, inquire more." ”

"Yes, miss." Rujiang was surprised and responded.

Wen Shijiao thought about it, Wen Shuqiu was right, after all, he was going to get married, and he wouldn't understand anything at that time, wouldn't it be a joke?

I thought about a lot of things again, and felt that my head hurt a little, so I reached out and rubbed my eyebrows.

Yu Dai saw that it was getting late, and it was an autumn night, and it was even more dewy, so she comforted her softly: "Miss, let's rest." ”

Wen Shijiao nodded: "Put these away." He looked at the four treasures of the study on the table.

Yu Dai made a look, and Qiu Bai stepped forward to put away the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Wen Shijiao got up, Yu Dai hurriedly helped her, and walked to the bed.

covered her with the quilt, lowered the bed curtain, blew out the candles in the room, and then walked out lightly.

A dreamless night.

The Mid-Autumn Festival has just passed.

Recently, Youzhou has set off a boom in the Douwen Society, as the name suggests, it is that everyone gets together to guess the poems of the pairs.

Wen Shijiao received Xu Wan's post while having breakfast.

"Who is this Xu Wan?" The girl scooped up a mouthful of porridge.

Yu Dai said with a smile: "It is the daughter of Xinzhi County, Xinzhi County is a daimyo person, it is said that he is a clerk of the daimyo yamen, and he was recommended by the lord to His Majesty, and came to Youzhou as a county magistrate." ”

Wen Shijiao snorted and said, "How is this Xu Wan?" ”

A few people fell silent.

Wen Shijiao didn't raise her head, "Bang Qing, you come." ”

"Miss Hui, this Xu Wan... It's a prick, famous... Target... Whoa..."

When Bang Qing said the last two words, his voice was obviously quieter.

Wen Shijiao raised her eyebrows, so coincidentally? Will the two fight when they meet?

"She invited me to attend the Douwen meeting at Yuxiang Building in Revive Bay before three o'clock this afternoon, and the post said that she invited almost all the girls in Youzhou." Wen Shijiao lowered her eyes and took a sip of porridge.

She really wanted to go and meet that Xu Wan for a while.

Yu Dai said cautiously: "Miss, then are you going?" ”

"Go, why don't you go, you go and reply to the post." Wen Shijiao wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.

Yu Dai sighed, turned around and walked out.

Qiu Bai helped Wen Shijiao into the back room.

Rujiang walked in, "Miss, the slave has almost searched the entire Youzhou. ”

"The result?" Wen Shijiao leaned on the soft couch.

Rujiang pondered for a moment and said, "The slaves and maids have been sifted through layer by layer, and there are still three people left." ”

"Listen to it." The girl covered her lips and yawned, a little tear overflowed from the corners of her eyes, and pressed it gently with a handkerchief.

Rujiang raised her eyes and looked at her and said seriously: "The first person is Mrs. Li from Xiaoyu Lane, West Second Street, four out of twenty, unmarried, doesn't like to talk on weekdays, has an average family background, and there are many people who come to ask for marriage, but her parents have a very high vision, and they have been delayed again and again, so they have not been able to get out of the cabinet." ”

Seeing that the girl lowered her eyes and didn't speak, Ru Jiang spoke again: "The second person is Shen Erniang from East Sixth Street, three out of twenty, unmarried, with a pungent personality, a solid family background, and a mediocre appearance. ”

"The third person, who is also the Wang Niangzi of East Sixth Street, is five out of twenty and has never been married..."

"Are there any older ones?" Wen Shijiao interrupted.

Rujiang was stunned for a moment, thought about it and his eyes lit up, "There is one, that is, the Qi lady of our street, eight out of twenty, who sells rouge gouache on the street, has a strong personality and is kind-hearted, but he has been married." ”

"Tell me about it." The girl looked curious.

"She came out of the cabinet at the age of sixteen and married Li Blacksmith on West Street, but the blacksmith seems to have someone in his heart, and the husband and wife have always respected each other like guests.

Rujiang said it truthfully.

Wen Shijiao was surprised: "Never had a child? ”

I haven't been pregnant for so many years, and I have already committed the rule of seven outs, and I should divorce my wife.

"It is said that the blacksmith seems... I don't want Qi Niangzi to get pregnant. ”

Wen Shijiao was silent for a while, and said, "In the afternoon, you go with me for a fighting meeting, and when you pass by her shop, you talk to me." ”

Rujiang responded respectfully: "Yes, miss." ”

After lunch, Wen Shijiao asked Bang Qing to dress her up.

"Miss, what do you want?" Bang Qing looked at the girl brightly.

Wen Shijiao tilted her head and thought for a while: "Don't be too public, don't be too plain." ”

Bang Qing replied: "Yes, I guarantee your satisfaction." ”

Before the second moment, Wen Shijiao held Rujiang's hand and stepped on the small pestle to get into the carriage.

Wen Shijiao kept the curtain open, and Rujiang deliberately told the coachman to slow down a little.

"Miss, it's almost there." Rujiang said, "It's the place where the red lantern is hung in front, and the woman in plain clothes is Qi Niangzi." ”

Wen Shijiao was looking at her, but unexpectedly, the Qi lady raised her head and met Wen Shijiao's gaze.

After the carriage passed the shop, Rujiang lowered the curtain, looked at Wen Shijiao and said, "Miss, what do you think?" ”

"Let her come tomorrow and I'll talk to her." Wen Shijiao saw that her eyes were clear and firm, not like she was not thinking right, and she was a little heroic between her eyebrows, and she had always been a high-spirited person.

Wen Shijiao thought for a while and said, "What kind of person is she on weekdays?" ”

Rujiang replied: "Her father is a Xiucai, her mother is the big girl of everyone in Youzhou, she knows some poetry, knows words, and is a little arrogant. ”

Wen Shijiao snorted, she was quite satisfied with this Qi lady so far.

"What's her name?"

"Qi Shuangshuang."

Wen Shijiao smiled, then closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Rujiang waited on the side.

Wen Shijiao was woken up by the sound of a quarrel, and opened her eyes unexpectedly: "What's wrong?" ”

Rujiang hurriedly said: "I have arrived at Yuxiang Building, and the slave maid just wanted to call you." ”

"What's going on outside?"

"Bang Qing said that it was Miss Xu who quarreled with that Sun Xiaochan." Rujiang tidied up her appearance.

Wen Shijiao chuckled lowly: "I didn't expect this Xu Wan to be not afraid of things." ”

The Xu family is just a county order, how can they fight the local snake Sun family?

But not necessarily, the Xu family was recommended by the Wen family to be the county magistrate of Youzhou, and it must be someone from the Wen family.

Thinking about it this way, Wen Shijiao stood on Xu Wan's side.

Bang Qing lifted the curtain, Ru Jiang walked down first, and stretched out his hand to support the girl.

Wen Shijiao stepped on the small pestle and got out of the carriage.

As soon as she came out, she attracted the attention of many people, and even the sound of the quarrel was much quieter, and in the end, there was no sound, and the group of girls actually looked straight at Wen Shijiao.

Wen Shijiao wore a red begonia gold silk jacket with a vertical collar today, combed a fallen horse bun, two hairpins side by side, and a half-moon-shaped crimson pearl comb grate on the top of her head, and a string of gilded peony rings around her neck.

The teacher was stunned, this Wen San girl was so flamboyant.

Wen Shijiao felt that this was very common, and it was not publicity, well, Bang Qing also thought so.

You can see the expressions of everyone, and you can see that they don't think like this.

There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent.
