Chapter 278: The Road Is Blocked
"Stop, who are you, it's not just anyone who can go in here." It sounded like a teenage girl.
"The stage hasn't been set up yet, the gongs and drums haven't sounded, even the troupe is not ready, you came too early, and now there are no people in the pear orchard, so you better go out quickly."
Su Jingye turned around, but he didn't see the person who spoke, except for the dense trees in the lawn and flower beds on both sides, there was no shadow of anyone else.
"What are you looking at? I'm standing right in front of you, and you're too rude. ”
The voice was still coming, Su Jingye was stunned, Zhao Ming pulled him with a smile, and then pointed him in a direction with his eyes. Su Jingye's eyes fell, only to find that it was a half-grown boy.
This kid was not as tall as Su Jingye's waist, no wonder he didn't notice it for a while.
The child was wearing the most simple gray thick horse, and when he turned around, he was dressed in a pair of dark blue trouser legs and pants with a pair of black cloth shoes on the soles of his feet, and at first glance he looked like an old uncle who had lived for decades.
At this time, because he was unhappy in his heart, his hands were crossed on his waist, his left foot was still slapping the ground for a while, and he looked up at Su Jingye with angry eyes, his little face was round, but he was still angry with him, and he looked more and more cute.
Su Jingye glanced at the corner and found that there was a wooden bucket behind him that was almost as tall as someone else, and the bucket was full of water.
"We're not here to play, we're not here to watch the show, we have something to find someone, this shouldn't hinder you from anything, right?" Su Jingye leaned down, stretched out his palm and rubbed two handfuls on the child's head.
The child's hair was extraordinarily soft, and it was now half-scattered, so it was particularly easy to tie these two downward pinchs. Su Jingye's hand was covered, and his five fingers were opened, so that he could almost hold his entire head under his hand.
Su Jingye couldn't put it down, for fear of scaring the child, and thought that he had put on the most kind expression and attitude.
But Zhao Ming didn't have such good patience and kindness as him, he straightened his waist with his elbows in both hands, and looked down condescendingly at the child in front of him, and his tone sounded a little yin and yang.
"Did you hear that? This has nothing to do with your little miscellaneous work, so you better go back to your father and mother quickly. ”
One of the two sang with a white face and the other with a red face, but the child was completely soft and hard, and even slapped Su Jingye's hand away, and glared back at Zhao Ming with hatred.
"Don't think that you can do it as an adult, we children are not easy to bully."
His voice was brittle like that of a little girl, but he didn't look like he was twelve or thirteen years old, and it was not uncommon for boys and girls to speak in similar voices and looks, so they didn't suspect much
Su Jingye was still hesitating about how to ask him, and Zhao Ming scolded unhappily.
"Why is this bullying you, adults see that you look cute, can't you tease you? It's better for your child not to be too angry, a manly husband, so stingy as a little girl, be careful that you will grow up and have no interest. ”
Hearing this, Su Jingye's thoughts were only halfway through his thoughts, and he made Zhao Ming laugh, he still felt for the first time that Zhao Ming actually felt like a parent.
And according to Zhao Ming's usual personality, it is already rare for him to be able to talk to the little kid who disturbs his affairs so calmly.
It sounded like words of concern and greeting from an elder, but the child, instead of having any intention of being taught, was even more angry, and almost jumped up and hit him a few times.
"You're the man, your whole family is a man, and I'm a big girl with a yellow flower."
That's right, except for the old father who was paralyzed in bed, Zhao Ming's family had no one else. Although Zhao Ming is in his thirties, he has not yet had a wife.
However, he personally enlightened late in this regard, and his seriously ill old father did not press on, so he consumed it first.
Therefore, although this was said that the kid had the intention to scold, Zhao Ming did not care about and refute it, but was a little surprised and concerned, which made Su Jingye feel that his attitude today was a little unbelievable.
"It's actually a girl, so you still have to do such heavy work. Where are your parents? How can you be so ruthless, even if you ask you to help, you should send some light work"
Hearing this, the little girl was a little embarrassed, put down her hands and pulled the hem of her clothes uneasily, but she still pretended not to care about it
"I'm happy to do it myself."
Su Jingye, who witnessed this passing by on the side, inadvertently raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect the relationship between Zhao Ming and the child to change so quickly.
Thinking that now that Zhao Ming has been recognized as a good person by that little girl, then this villain will be played by himself.
"Whether you're a man or a woman, we don't care at all. You little girl should go where you go, and bring the steward of your pear orchard, and we will only tell him about something. ”
"I'm not called a girl, I have a name and a surname, my name is Mo Huaqing." In the end, she is a little girl, she has no heart, and she reports to her home without Su Jingye's roundabout inquiry.
"Our housekeeper is still resting at this time, and she hasn't gotten up, and if she doesn't wait for her to wake up on weekdays, no one will come out to see anyone."
"And where do you rest on weekdays? We'll just go to him. Su Jingye waved her hand, looking very unwilling to compromise, but the little girl still did not agree.
"That's not good, our person in charge is also a woman, and now we are still waiting in the boudoir, what do you big men look like, it will insult her reputation."
You are an incasual little girl, and you still know a little about these things, Su Jingye couldn't help but laugh in her heart, and took a step back. "Then let's sit and drink tea in the pear orchard, and wait for her to wake up."
"That's not good, there are a lot of troupes in the pear orchard preparing for rehearsals, if you go in, how about passing on all our play lists later?" It was as if he wanted to put the big bucket on his back in front of them, but after a few insistences, the barrel did not move, and he had no choice but to let go, pretending to be calm and calm, and once again put his hands in his small waist.
"The plays in our garden are all arranged on the same day, so that the people who come to listen to the plays can have fresh energy. Otherwise, it will affect the business in the park, and I can't take the risk of letting you in. ”
"What's more," Mo Huaqing was halfway through his words, tilting his head and glancing up and down at Su Jingye. "It's impossible to let you go in and rehearse during the day."
"What's the matter with you, kid? This doesn't work, that doesn't work, are you what kind of person we will put in your pear orchard. Zhao Ming couldn't help it, it seems that he is still the villain with a tough attitude.
Mo Huaqing saw that he was angry, and suddenly looked at a loss again, put his hands down, and his attitude eased a lot, and he persuaded with some reassuring intentions.
"Then if you want to wait, go to the small courtyard in front of you to rest. It was a resting place for a group of temporary workers in the garden who had come to help, and there was also tea and melon seeds, so you might as well take a break from the sun in it. ”
"You're going to want us to hang out with the people?" Zhao Ming never dreamed that he would be treated like this one day, Fang Cai's anger was rising instead of decreasing, and Su Jingye hurriedly grabbed him.
"If this is the rule of the pear orchard, then we can't do anything, we can't bully others."
After Su Jingye finished persuading, he bent down and looked at Mo Huaqing again. "It's just that it's rare for us to come here, can we take a few turns around the pear orchard, and we should also have a long experience. Rest assured, we won't go in. ”
Mo Huaqing glanced at Zhao Ming deliberately, and only then did he tilt his head and close his eyes for his face. "Well, after all, we are not such unreasonable people, you will leave separately after shopping, and the steward must wake up in half an hour, and you will come back then."
After that, Mo Huaqing picked up the barrel and left. The heavy barrel seemed to have no weight under her hands at this time, and it was extremely light to lift.
"Thank you, little girl." Zhejiang was also very polite to say goodbye, but Zhao Ming was very embarrassed to complain beside him. "What a shabby rule, not even a house is allowed to enter. Isn't it just a play, when others haven't seen it, after being an official for so many years, it's the first time I've encountered such an arrogant people. ”
"Lord Zhao is dissatisfied, but in fact, it should be more dissatisfied, it is this king." After Su Jingye waited for Mo Huaqing to leave, the smile on his face also retracted, and the eyes that looked at Zhao Ming were also full of obscure emotions.
"This king thinks that after meeting Ruyu, his temper will be the same as that of the sea. Although he didn't deliberately please others, he was at least kind to others, and he didn't want to meet one or two people, and he seemed to have some prejudices about this king, but he was very close to Lord Zhao. ”
"What does the prince mean, the lower officials don't understand, the lower officials have never felt that anyone is interested in being close to the lower officials." Zhao Ming gave him a startled look, and he couldn't help but tilt his chin back, and replied with a dry smile.
Su Jingye didn't pay much attention to what he said, just looked at him quietly. only looked at Zhao Ming a little creepy, and thought that he had done something wrong, so he suddenly changed his face and attitude, and couldn't help laughing.
