Chapter 244: True Face
After receiving Xia Huanfeng's notice, Ming Yi knew that the matter was urgent, and immediately rushed to Rong Yifang.
Xia Huanfeng was already waiting for Mingyi's arrival: "Count the footsteps, Shi Ruoshan should arrive this afternoon or evening, I have a place to settle here, and I should rest here." ”
Mingyi asked, "Then you have to have a showdown with him tonight?" ”
"Yes, urgently. Let's talk tonight, and tomorrow we'll go and propose. "Xia Huanfeng is categorical.
Ming Yi was a little hesitant, she was counting on coming back at the beginning of the year to propose marriage together, so as to dispel Tao Sanniang's concerns, and now she had to redo her plans.
"Have you figured out how to convince him?"
Xia Huanfeng nodded: "You will be listening when you arrive, just talk at the right time, I am still sure." ”
Ming Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, I've always been at ease when you do things." It's just that Tao Sanniang will agree? ”
Xia Huanfeng said with a smile: "She sent someone yesterday to say that she would stay in Chang'an when she came in, and she didn't return the gift I sent, which means that there is no problem." ”
Mingyi knew that it was Wu Qianping who played a role, and let go of the big stone in his heart.
The two of them sat silent, those things had been talked about many times, and there was nothing new to say. At noon, the guests of Rongyifang were almost gone, and Xia Huanfeng had no intention of greeting them, each of them was apprehensive, and they were all distracted, waiting for Shi Ruoshan's arrival.
The two of them sat in the window seat in the private room facing the street on the second floor, and every time the sound of horses' hooves sounded, they looked out. I don't know if it's anticipation or nervousness, Mingyi feels that it's going to come anyway, so it's better to be earlier, but it's a big deal.
After all, at present, convincing Shi Ruoshan has become a key part of the future plan.
Hoping for the result, a sturdy black horse appeared in sight, and the man on the horse was also dressed in black, the most convenient outfit for hurrying. The figure has been seen that it is Shi Ruoshan.
Ming Yi and Xia Huanfeng both looked downstairs, and saw the black horse stopping, and the man in black looked up and met the eyes of the two. Stalemate for a moment, slightly embarrassed, Xia Huanfeng beckoned, showed a sweet smile, and motioned for him to wait. Then he ran downstairs with Mingyi to greet the visitors.
Ming Yi still had the look of Shi Ruoshan, who was dressed in black, looking up at each other. In the past, the big brother Shi always greeted people with a smile, and there was a little restraint in the goodwill, a little like a simple big brother who rarely went to the city in the countryside, for fear of offending people and showing his timidity. Even if he knew that he was suspected of murder, he had deceived Wanqing for many years, and the impression in his mind had not changed, and there was still no murderous situation.
And Fang Cai's face, as if he had not had time to put on the mask, inadvertently revealed his true face. Cold, indifferent, with three points of yin and two points of anger, the corners of the mouth drooped, and the eyes were sharp. If the owner of this face suddenly made a murderous move, Ming Yi would not be surprised.
What made her even more uncomfortable was that this face was quickly replaced with a soft and friendly smile, and even the sharpness in her eyes was replaced by a misty and sincere look, as if that moment of violence was just an illusion. But Mingyi saw the appearance of that moment clearly, and it was deeply engraved in his heart.
Ming Yi felt that Xia Huanfeng had also seen it, but he knew what kind of person Shi Ruoshan was better than her, so he reacted quickly and was not too surprised.
At the door of Rong Yifang, Xia Huanfeng took the reins from Shi Ruoshan's hand affectionately and handed them to the little guy.
"Brother Shi, you are finally here, this is the first time you have come to my new store, you must accompany Mingyi to have a few more drinks today." Xia Huanfeng is still a female voice, crisp and delicate.
Shi Ruoshan was also quite cooperative: "That's certain." Why is Mingyi's sister here, do you have a premonition that she can meet me? ”
There was a bit of temptation in his words.
Xia Huanfeng was very calm, and replied truthfully: "Pony Feige sent a message, saying that you arrived almost today, and I hurriedly called Ming Yi to wash the dust for you." ”
Ming Yi was a little surprised at first, but later he also understood that Xiao Ma was afraid that Shi Ruoshan would know about it, and even he instructed it. If Xia Huanfeng conceals the receipt of the letter, it means that he has a ghost in his heart, or has a private relationship with the pony.
Shi Ruoshan turned to Ming Yi: "Why isn't my future brother-in-law here?" I still want to stay drunk with him, he drinks unfathomably. ”
Ming Yi had already thought of an excuse: "He has some medical skills since he was a child, and he is most interested in all kinds of rare herbs. Before winter, he often looks for his herbs in the mountains, but if it snows, it is difficult to find them. Should be back in two days. ”
"My brother-in-law is still a talented person, Mingyi, you have a good vision." Shi Ruoshan said a perfunctory sentence, and followed Xia Huanfeng upstairs.
Xia Huanfeng first took him to the guest room on the third floor: "This room is for the eldest brother, it is uninhabited on weekdays, it is a little simpler, you have to take care of it." ”
Shi Ruoshan looked around: "Phantom Feng is too modest, you have a prosperous atmosphere here, even the ordinary guest room is no worse than the bedroom of my Shangguan Mansion, after all, it is Chang'an, and it is atmospheric everywhere." ”
"Big brother, you rest and change clothes first, I asked Hu Ji to prepare hot water, wash your face more comfortably, and I'll go and give you a banquet." Xia Fanfeng is a few thoughtful.
Shi Ruoshan smiled: "It's simpler, you don't need to be polite." ”
Xia Huanfeng retreated and said, "It's just the three of us, let's eat and drink at will." Brother Shi is ready, and the orchid at the door will take you to the private room. ”
Shi Ruoshan glanced at the pretty orchid who came with the basin, frowned and shook his head, and smiled awkwardly: "Phantom Maple has a lot of tricks here." ”
Ming Yi went downstairs with Xia Huanfeng, and looked back at the sexyly dressed orchid who was guarding the gate of Shi Ruoshan: "This is what you prepared for him?" ”
Xia Huanfeng smiled bitterly: "It would be better if he could do it." How easy it is to deal with frivolous and lustful people, but unfortunately he is not. ”
Mingyi nodded silently.
When Shi Ruoshan arrived in the private room, he had already changed into a light gray robe, and the person looked more soft.
Xia Huanfeng poured wine: "Fanfeng first toast a glass to wash the dust for Brother Shi." ”
Drinks for three. Shi Ruoshan opened the topic first: "What is the situation in Chang'an recently?" I came all the way, and I heard that although the Tianyi Gang had built a branch altar, they didn't do anything. The Peach Seven Gang is still domineering. ”
Xia Huanfeng happily continued: "Although the Tianyi Gang is rich and powerful, after all, they are not familiar with Chang'an, and they are new to Chang'an. The Taoqi Gang has been operating in Chang'an for many years, and the hostels have opened one after another, and the news is received quickly, and it can also subsidize the local expenses in Chang'an, which should have a great advantage. ”
"Originally? What's wrong now? Shi Ruoshan was quite interested.
Xia Huanfeng sighed: "Tao Sanniang is her daughter's family after all, and she has always been used to calling for wind and rain in Yizhou, so she understands the routines of these scoundrels in Chang'an." Some local scoundrels who can't eat and wear and have no bones sent to the door, saying that they can help the Taoqi Gang collect peace money, and voluntarily worship under the door, just asking for the shelter of the gang. She didn't think about it, so she accepted it. ”
Shi Ruoshan frowned and said: "How can those scoundrels do business at a loss, but they are just relying on the reputation of the Peach Seven Gang to do nonsense, eat and drink together, and fill their own pockets." Trouble is all on the gang. 2k reading network
