Chapter 21: Obsession
In Shen Yue'er's concept, it is necessary to find Lan Xin and Hui Zhi first. Then the three of them completed the agreement with the Seventh Young Master here, and at the same time looked for Xie Yanzhi, her brother of Yan Zhi, in this capital.
Now that she has this idea more and more intense, this is all her hope, and the three of them will be together and find Xie Yanzhi. As for what would happen after finding him, she couldn't remember, she just desperately wanted to find him.
I thought about it all the time, until I thought about it and became an obsession.
Xiao Chuan'er entered the master's big study in the mansion, and her voice was very low: "When will you send those two girls over, master." ”
"Stabilize her for a few more days, otherwise as soon as these two girls go, it will be easy for her to discuss with them and run away."
What the Seventh Young Master was looking at, and what was he writing with his pen.
"Lao Qi" heard a person outside the door, and the door was pushed open.
The sun shone in the courtyard, straight and hot, but not many people entered the house, only the hot temperature penetrated into the house through all the cracks.
The Seventh Young Master looked at the person who came in at the door and put down his pen and said, "I let the fourth brother let out this little coolness." ”
Xiao Chuan'er smiled and went to bring the chilled cold melon, the fourth young master ate the cold melon balls in the glass bowl, and took the time to say to the seventh young master: "What has Wu Xinzhong been making trouble recently?" Don't be like a life, tossing all over the capital. ”
The seventh young master ate the cold melon balls and raised his eyebrows: "The fourth brother is in the court all day, do you need to ask me about this?" ”
The fourth young master laughed: "By the way, have you heard about it, there is a lively thing in this capital now." said that it was a person called Ye Wuying, who got Shen Chen's old things back then, and asked for five thousand taels of silver, what other objects did you say about the Shen family that was worth such a price? ”
The Seventh Young Master leaned over to the Fourth Young Master with a matter: "Shen Xiangye fought Liaodong at the beginning, what kind of treasure map may it be of the Jurchens?" ”
The fourth young master glanced at him: "I haven't been in shape all day, come on, I have something to do with you today." In a few days, I will go to Huai'an Mansion with me to hire the eldest lady of Governor Mu's Mansion. ”
The seventh young master waved his hand: "Don't go, I'm afraid that Lao Mu will take a fancy to me, and then marry that Mu Qianyi to me, the fourth brother didn't run away in vain." ”
The silver spoon in the fourth young master's hand flew out: "Twenty people have not been in shape all day, hurry up and find someone to marry back, and also accept your wild nature." Don't lie in the Huaishui East Building all day long, no matter how good Xiang Yu'er is, she can't enter this door. ”
The seventh young master flew the fourth young master's spoon back: "Hurry up and marry your wife and take your concubine, you are busy in your backyard, and you still have the leisure to take care of me and other idle things, I think you still have fewer concubines." ”
The fourth young master didn't bother to say this to him again, so he reminded: "Don't forget anything, I won't tell you it, I will have a snack by myself." ”
The fourth young master got up and left, and the seventh young master asked Xiao Chuan'er while eating cold melon: "Did you send ice over there?" ”
"It's sent, the eldest lady is too weak to let ice in the house."
The Seventh Young Master looked at the cold melon ball covered with ice in the glass bowl, sighed and said, "She liked this cold melon the most when she was young, but she couldn't eat it this year." ”
"It's better for the master of Huai'an Mansion to go on a trip, if he doesn't leave the capital for a long time, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion." Xiao Chuan'er said to the master who was still watching the cold melon ball.
The Seventh Young Master finally withdrew his gaze from the cold melon ball, looked at Xiao Chuan'er and thought about it, put down the silver spoon and said: "At this time, the fourth brother went to hire, just to hide from this quiet, when did you see your master dodging, now it's too bad to hide." ”
Xiao Chuan'er nodded: "That's right, it's the slave who thinks shallowly." ”
"Huaishui East Building" The seventh young master got up and walked out, and Xiao Chuan'er followed.
Swaggered into the Huaishui East Building, had lunch at Xiang Yu'er's, and slept again, and the Seventh Young Master took Xiao Chuan'er out of the back window. At the moment when he turned the window, he glanced back at Xiang Yu'er.
She understood what he was looking at, and nodded softly at him.
He likes Xiang Yuer, he is smart enough to know what he can do and what he can't do.
When entering the small courtyard of Sanjin, there was a person hidden in the shadows, and Ai Ai said to the Seventh Young Master for a while: "Master, my subordinates don't want to pretend to be women, can you change someone to be a shadowless night?" ”
The Seventh Young Master slowly shook his head, looked at him and said, "No, how can you rest assured that such an important task is entrusted to others." ”
Hearing what the master said in that false night, he suddenly forgot the awkwardness and humiliation of pretending to be a woman. What is this, this is the master's special attention, and it is an acknowledgment of his ability! His whole world sounded the battle horn, and the sound of war drums seemed to beat on his heart, which made people's hearts so excited!
At this time, I heard the master say again: "No one else is as good-looking as you, not as charming as you, and not as charming as you." ”
It's a very serious tone, but who can tell him how the master used such a serious tone to say such an unserious thing?
How did the trumpet and the sound of the war drums that had just sounded in my heart suddenly become a beautiful sound?
He was messy in the shadows, and after a while, he seemed to ease up, and then muttered: "I'm a green fox, I'm a green fox, I'm not a shadowless night, I'm not a shadowless night, I'm a man, I'm a man, not a girl." ”
Yue'er raised in this small house with three entrances for about half a month, and her body recovered and she gained some weight.
The Seventh Young Master is not here every day, and Yue'er is also happy to be quiet. Otherwise, as a maid, she always has to be served by the master, which is not a matter of consciousness. She always has to think, what does he want from me? On the contrary, I don't think about who he is or what kind of person he is.
"Xiao Chuan'er said that you are in good health, is it time to be a good girl?" The seventh young master leaned lazily on the soft couch, pillowing one of his arms, and if he didn't speak with his eyes closed, Yue'er thought he was asleep.
"It's great, I, uh, the slave said that I could work a few days ago, and Xiao Chuan'er persuaded me to raise it again, so it dragged on until this time." As she said this, Yue'er subconsciously stood up from the table and put down the book she was just looking at in her hand.
Perhaps a little panicked when she got up, her foot touched the drum stool, and there was a muffled sound that made the Seventh Young Master open his eyes and look at her.
"In the future, you can't be called a slave or maid, just call Yue'er. Ye has some accounts of Zhuangzi and shops, usually Xiao Chuan'er takes care of them, and he can't take care of them and can't take care of them, so this account will be handed over to you in the future. ”
As soon as this not light and heavy voice fell, Xiao Chuan'er seemed to have the ability to predict, and came in with a stack of ledgers and put them on the table in front of Yue'er.
Yue'er looked at the account book in a daze, and then looked at the Seventh Young Master. I saw that the seventh young master glanced at Xiao Chuan'er with an unhappy face, and his eyes fell on the kang in front of the window again.
Xiao Chuan'er understood, and immediately hugged the account book to the small table on the kang. After arranging the cushions and pillows, I went out to make tea, and came in with snacks and fruits, and waited aside.
Yue'er consciously climbed onto the kang, sat there and opened an account book, and Xiao Chuan'er hurriedly introduced it.
"The price of this cotton yarn has gone up, right?" Yue'er looked at the ledger and pointed to a place and asked Xiao Chuan'er.
"We received the goods from the caravan, and we didn't go to the production area in person, so the price is naturally higher."
Hearing Xiao Chuan'er say this, Yue'er still frowned: "The cotton in Guanzhong or Ludi is good, and the cotton yarn is good in both places." As far as this price is concerned, you must be collecting it in Guanzhong, because the distance is long, which leads to a high price. If you change the source of goods in Ludi, the journey is nearly half, and it would be strange if the price was still the same. ”
