The next day the weather was very gloomy, and it was just after dawn, when the wind whistled wildly, and the windows rustled.
The distant mountains had become hazy, and the sky was translucent and white. The window was covered with a thin layer of frost, and the cool air flow lingered around the window, and it was actually cold.
After Shen Qiangrose washed, she saw that Su Ma and Liu Ma had already entered the house, and Liu Ma said, "Miss, Su Ma prepared porridge early in the morning, do you want to eat it now?" ”
Shen Qiangrose sat in front of the dresser and smeared the fat powder on her face. But a random detail, Su Ma really saw it. I only feel that Shen Qiangrose pays special attention to beautiful faces, which is a little different from when she was young. Recalling all yesterday, I feel that she is a delicate woman with no city.
Suddenly, I heard Shen Qiangrose say: "I was going to go out shopping today, but this weather is really disappointing, so I simply made a phone call and asked someone from a foreign company to send some dresses." As she spoke, she instructed Su's mother, "Please do me a favor." ”
Seeing that she is now down, Su Ma still does not change her old habits, but seems to be a person who has not woken up. Although she muttered in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, and walked out with Liu's mother in response.
Shen Qiangrose heard the footsteps getting farther and farther away, so she threw the comb aside casually, and looked at herself in the mirror again, her plain face was covered with a layer of powder, and she only felt dazzling. She couldn't help but take the handkerchief and wiped it vigorously, her cheeks were crimson, and she looked at it silently for a moment before getting up and leaving the room.
Because it was morning, there were a few maids cleaning in the hall, and when they saw Shen Qiangrose, they all greeted them politely. With a smile on her face, Shen Qiang Rose sat down on the sofa, and after a while, the maid served tea with a newspaper attached.
Shen Qiangrose picked it up and looked at it casually, and saw that the whole newspaper was full of reports about Su Huiyi's marriage to her. Fortunately, the title of the article was just a normal narrative, and she thought that this might be Su Huiyi's intention, so she put the newspaper on the table and asked, "When will you Qishao and that Miss Fang get married?" ”
A few maids only thought that she was angry in her heart, and no one dared to answer for a while, Shen Qiangrose lowered her face and said, "You just tell me, is it possible that you are hiding it from me, and he will not get married in the future?" ”
This happened to be heard by Su's mother, who came to hear the news, and she said: "My young lady, isn't it enough to add to the blockage?" Why do you ask about this? ”
Shen Qiangrose couldn't help but snort and said, "You just have to hide it from me, I'll call him and let him tell me in person!" When Su Ma saw that she was struggling to get up, she grabbed her and said, "Oh, good miss, you can stop a little." Am I telling you that it is not possible? ”
But when she saw Shen Qiangrose, she looked like she had tears in her eyes, so she said: "Dashuai means that the sooner you do it, the better...... The wedding was scheduled for next month. ”
Shen Qiangrose lowered her eyes, her heart turned back and forth for a while, and after a long time, she reluctantly said yes, got up and went upstairs.
Until more than nine o'clock in the morning, I saw the sound of cars at the gate, and the maid looked out, and saw that it was someone from the foreign company who came, so she went to call Shen Qiangrose.
When he opened the door, he saw her secretly wiping her tears, so he said timidly: "Miss, someone from the foreign bank has come to deliver clothes." Shen Qiangrose wiped her eyes, tidied up her cheongsam, and then went downstairs.
The manager of the foreign bank was cared for by the Shen family a lot in his early years, so this time he heard that it was Miss Shen's meaning, so he specially selected a few new dresses and sent them over personally. The maids were polite and soon served tea.
The boss saw that it was Longjing, and then looked at the environment of the small building. Xindao This Miss Shen is really a good fate, obviously her family is down, and now she not only reports that she has already married Qi Shao, but also lives in such a first-class small western-style building, which shows her status in Qi Shao's heart.
After a blink of an eye, seeing Shen Qiangrose walking down, she stood up and greeted her politely.
Shen Qiangrose was most impatient with this kind of businessman's face, and she was unwilling to perfunctory him. But seeing Su Ma's eyes looking at herself, she had to make a happy look.
The boss is very good at doing business, and Shen Qiangrose will not be short of money. The recommended clothes are all fashionable and expensive, Shen Qiangrose didn't have much energy to pick out two, and the accompanying guy saw it and said, "Miss, might as well take a look at this one again?" It's trending this year! ”
Shen Qiangrose glanced at it casually and shook her head without interest. But I saw that the guy was wearing a suit that didn't fit very well, and it was put on him weakly, and it was more than two laps bigger.
When the boss saw Shen Qiangrose looking at his dumb buddy, he smiled and said, "Miss Shen, don't blame, this is my distant nephew, and his brain is not very good." The year before last, when the war broke out, his parents died, and I saw that he was pitiful, so I kept people with me. ”
Shen Qiangrose only said that he had a rough fate, so she sent a group of maids to get some snacks. Seeing her sympathy, Su's mother hurriedly followed her to the kitchen, afraid that the little maid would take some expensive food.
Seeing that all the people in the room walked away, the young man's eyes turned around smartly, walked over in three steps and two steps, and handed a note to Shen Qiangrose.
When the boss saw that no one had come, he lowered his voice and said, "Miss Shen, for the sake of the young master who once fought to protect you, save his life." ”
Shen Qiangrose sat calmly on the sofa, but did not say a word. When Su's mother brought the maid over, the boss recommended a few clothes as usual. However, Shen Qiangrose suddenly lost her patience, yelling that she had a headache, and actually gave an eviction order.
Seeing her so moody, Su's mother became more and more dissatisfied in her heart. But he couldn't do it, so he politely sent the boss and his buddies out. Just listened to the guy muttering as if complaining, and Su Ma was even more upset when she heard it.
I couldn't help but turn my head to look over, and I saw Shen Qiangrose humming a song, looking very frivolous and going upstairs.
Towards noon, the clouds turned thick, and a light rain began to fall, and a few people on the small street were running in the rain, and the cloth signs hanging outside the street shops were wet by the rain. Because this street is built in the area of West Street, it is very sparsely populated, and it is raining at the moment, and it is even more sparsely populated.
Fortunately, there is a teahouse on the street to catch up with such a cold and rainy season. When I arrived at the door, I wanted to go in and taste a cup of hot tea, not to mention that there was a new woman in the teahouse, who was said to be gorgeous, and was quite famous in this area.
Under the eaves, there were several students standing sheltering from the rain. The rain was crackling and falling, but I vaguely heard the sound of women playing and singing from the teahouse. Faint, jumping in the rain with a tune, it has a different artistic conception.
A car stopped on the side of the street, and saw Lin Ning get out of the car first, and then Su Huiyi also walked down. He walked in this quiet little street in only a long gown today, and he was unobtrusive.
The two of them entered the teahouse one after the other, and when the guy saw Su Huiyi's demeanor at first glance, he had already guessed that his identity was not ordinary. Busy and courteously led him to the second floor, and everywhere he passed was noisy, until he sat down, Su Huiyi still had a bad face.
When the guy served tea, Lin Ning threw two silver dollars on the tray and said, "You don't have to come over." When the fellow saw the silver dollar, he immediately closed his mouth and walked out quickly.
Su Huiyi looked over the stage, but saw a woman wearing a crimson cheongsam. Holding a pipa in his arms, he sat there gracefully, singing softly. He didn't like to hear this, so he picked up the tea on the table, looked at the tea leaves floating in the tea bowl, and blew it gently.
sat silently for a long time, but there was another cheer under the stage. Lin Ning lifted the curtain and went out, but after a while, he returned to the private room with vigorous steps, approached Su Huiyi, and said in a low voice: "Childe, the fishing net has been cast." ”
Su Huiyi casually sighed, gently rubbed the tea lid with his hand, and glanced thoughtfully at the crowd in the hall. The people under the stage were laughing noisily, and he said, "Is the customer's dim sum on it?" ”
Lin Ning immediately said: "It's good to go early." ”
Su Huiyi took a slow sip of tea and stopped talking. After a few songs, the woman on the stage walked off the stage with the pipa in her arms. Immediately afterwards, another man came up who was commenting on the story, and everyone under the stage saw the beauty leave, and there was no interest in seeing it, and the crowd slowly dispersed.
At this time, the curtain of the box was lifted. A man in an old-fashioned robe walked in slowly, wearing a top hat with a very low brim, and only the bridge of his nose and thin lips could be seen.
This person saw Su Huiyi, but did not speak. Relax in the chair next to you. glanced at the table very casually, and said with a smile: "But it's only a pity that I missed the song of the red jade girl when I was too late." His voice was like celadon striking jade, and there was a fierceness in his frivolity.
After speaking, he picked up the teacup on the table casually, the heat was rising, he blew it, and said as if unintentionally: "No. 36 Qingyan Road." ”
Su Huiyi originally looked at the stage without saying a word, but only when he heard the words did he show a smile and said, "Thank you." ”
The man was still looking at the stage, and his voice couldn't hear any ups and downs, "Actually, there are many ways to get out of the marriage, why choose this one is the most troublesome?" If you want me to say, find a few people and tie up the woman, and throw her on whoever she wants to do. Find a few tabloid reporters to make up a few newspapers, clean and neat, and there is no future trouble. ”
Su Huiyi took out the cigarette case in his pocket, took out one, and said lightly: "If it was so easy, I wouldn't have to spend so much time." He bit the cigarette in his mouth and opened the fire, and the flames were reflected in the light of his eyes, faintly gloomy.
The man took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "It's just that the children of your official family are decent people, and if you have it, since ancient times, officials and bandits have not competed, so I will leave." ”
Su Huiyi slowly exhaled smoke, and the blue and white smoke covered his face, so he heard him say, "I will set up a banquet for you to drink another day." ”
The man stood up, smiled faintly, and said, "Don't be polite, the little one is still counting on you to support your family, so don't entertain me." With that, he strode out.
