Chapter 152: The Old Man Again
[Chapter 4, Volume 4]
Chapter 152 and Chapter 152 are old again
Huo Qingsong left, and Lu Xiang'er sat in the living room for a long time before getting up. From the expression on her face, it can be seen that Lu Xiang'er is in a good mood at this time. Even Yuan Musheng saw something, and he was very happy for the benefactor of their father and son.
Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, Yuan Musheng came to the shop in front of him and wanted Tie Ge'er to buy some vegetables. Although Yuan Musheng married this wife, she is average in appearance and has a somewhat unworthy temperament, but she is a good dish. Every time Lu Xiang'er came, she would stay for lunch. The most important thing is that Lu Xiang'er has just found a house nearby for Yuan Musheng, and Yuan Musheng wants to express it.
Unexpectedly, when he saw Brother Tie, Yuan Musheng hadn't spoken yet, and another person walked outside. Seeing this person, Yuan Musheng's face immediately pulled down. No matter what kind of remedies the person in front of him had done, Yuan Musheng didn't have any good feelings for him. However, this is Jingshi, and the person in front of him is still a student who is rushing to take the exam, so Yuan Musheng can only come forward to salute.
"Liao Gongzi, this store has not opened yet, if Liao Gongzi wants to buy wine, he will have to wait for a while." Yuan Musheng gave a salute to Liao Wenbo, which made people not see any dissatisfied expression.
Liao Wenbo smiled slightly, and hugged his fist to Yuan Musheng: "Shopkeeper Yuan, I'm here to find Little Lady Lu, can you invite her out to see her." ”
Liao Wenbo didn't ask if Lu Xiang'er was here, but directly asked Yuan Musheng to ask Lu Xiang'er to come out, which means that Liao Wenbo knew that Lu Xiang'er was here. After thinking about it, Yuan Musheng thought that Liao Wenbo was secretly spying on Lu Xiang'er, his face was a little unsightly, and he was also a little wary in his heart.
Yuan Musheng was thinking about blocking Liao Wenbo back, but Lu Xiang'er walked out of the living room: "Uncle Musheng, you go and get busy, I can entertain Liao Gongzi." Liao Gongzi, please come to the living room for a cup of tea. ”
When Liao Wenbo saw Lu Xiang'er, his eyes were happy, but he was very subtle and didn't let people see it. And after receiving Lu Xiang'er's invitation, Liao Wenbo nodded to Yuan Musheng before entering the living room. Yuan Musheng looked at the curtain that was lowered a few times, then sighed and prepared to go to the backyard. Tie Ge'er scratched his head a little puzzled, Yuan Musheng seemed to want to say something to him just now, why did he just leave.
Besides, Lu Xiang'er and Liao Wenbo came to the living room, Lu Xiang'er first poured a cup of tea for Liao Wenbo, then sat back on the chair and said: "Liao Gongzi is still very well-informed, and he actually knows that I will be here." ”
Lu Xiang'er's voice was flat, but her tone was a little sarcastic, but Liao Wenbo's face was slightly narrow, and she said softly: "Little lady Lu, don't get me wrong, I learned from Senior Brother Lu that you were going to rebuild the Piaoxiang Wine Workshop in the East Market." I came here today to have a look, but I didn't expect to see General Huo, and I knew that Lu Xiaoniang's shop was here. ”
"Oh, so to speak, Mr. Liao has been standing outside for a long time." Lu Xiang'er raised her eyebrows slightly, and looked at Liao Wenbo strangely. The Liao family in Jiangling has a grudge with the Jingshi Huo General's Mansion, but Liao Wenbo's temperament, I'm afraid he won't hide from Huo Qingsong.
Liao Wenbo also knew Lu Xiang'er's doubts, but he didn't explain anything, but said: "Little lady Lu, the main purpose of my visit today is to tell you one thing......
Half an hour later, Lu Xiang'er and Liao Wenbo, who had some solemn looks on their faces, left the shop. Standing at the door of the shop, Liao Wenbo turned around and said goodbye to Lu Xiang'er. He looked at Lu Xiang'er, and he wanted to say something more, but thinking of what he had done before, Liao Wenbo's heart sank, and he couldn't say anything.
Lu Xiang'er was very grateful to Liao Wenbo for coming to tell her about that incident today, and blessed Liao Wenbo, and her tone softened a lot: "Young Master Liao, no matter what, Xiang'er is very grateful to you for coming to tell me the news." ”
"Little lady Lu is too polite, how can I say that I also know her, but I don't know what she will be now...... Okay, without further ado, I'll go back. Liao Wenbo thought of something when he said this, his eyes darkened, and he nodded to Lu Xiang'er and turned to leave.
Lu Xianger also saw Liao Wenbo's guilty eyes, and wanted to tell him that she didn't care anymore. can think of Liao Wenbo's thoughts about herself, Lu Xianger is afraid that after saying this, she will have any intersection with Liao Wenbo. She watched Liao Wenbo slowly leave and closed the mouth she had just opened.
It wasn't until Liao Wenbo disappeared that Lu Xianger turned around and returned to the shop. Unexpectedly, Yuan Musheng stood by the counter with a worried expression on his face. Lu Xiang'er understood his thoughts, so she put away her emotions and shook her head: "Uncle Mu Sheng, don't worry, Gongzi Liao didn't calculate anything about me. ”
"Little lady, I have also been a shopkeeper for a few years, and I have seen a lot of people. But Liao Gongzi, I haven't seen what kind of person he is, you still have to be careful. Yuan Musheng nodded, and then said that the meal had been prepared, and asked Lu Xiang'er to go eat quickly.
Speaking of lunch, Lu Xiang'er immediately had a happy face and walked to the backyard. Seeing the middle-aged woman serving rice, Lu Xiang'er smiled and said, "Uncle and Aunt Mu, I love to eat the tofu you made the most." ”
The middle-aged woman smiled shyly, her expression was a little restrained, and she hurriedly put the prepared rice in front of Lu Xiang'er, and said, "It's good if the little lady likes it, let's eat quickly, I'll go to change Brother Tie'er to come over for dinner." ”
As she spoke, the middle-aged woman hurried out of the room. Lu Xiang'er shook her head when she saw Yuan Musheng who was looking at the middle-aged woman, and said with a smile: "Uncle Musheng, my aunt may be a little unaccustomed to coming to Beijing when she first comes to Beijing, but it will get better slowly, don't be angry with her." ”
"Little lady doesn't need to persuade me, I know she's such a personality. That's fine, I'm also a little more worried. Although Yuan Musheng didn't like his wife's temperament, in addition, she was still very satisfied with Yuan Musheng, especially when she added two sons and a daughter to Yuan Musheng.
After lunch, Lu Xiang'er sat in the courtyard basking in the sun, and somehow remembered what Liao Wenbo told her. Lu Xiang'er wasn't sure if Liao Wenbo had recognized the wrong person, but if it was true, then she had to make some preparations, and Lu Xiang'er didn't want to see Lu Hong's gloomy appearance again.
After thinking about it, Lu Xiang'er came to the shop in front to find Yuan Musheng, and borrowed his carriage to go out for a walk. Yuan Musheng was naturally willing, and hurriedly asked Tie Ge'er to drive the carriage out of the back door, and let Tie Ge'er drive Lu Xiang'er out in the carriage.
"Little lady, where are we going?" Brother Tie waited for Lu Xiang'er to get into the carriage before turning around and asking.
Lu Xiang'er hesitated for a moment before she whispered: "Go to Jingshui Lake in Dongshi, I heard that there will be some talented women from Beijing, talking about poetry and painting on the painting boat in the lake, and I will go to increase my knowledge." Tie Ge'er nodded, and under Yuan Musheng's gaze, he slowly set up the carriage and left the shop.
For about half an hour, Lu Xiang'er, who was sitting in a carriage, finally saw the still water lake. Although it was already October and the weather was very cool, there were still a lot of tourists around. Lu Xiang'er saw that it was a little inconvenient for the carriage to drive here, so she got out of the carriage and asked Tie Ge'er to come and pick her up in an hour. Feeling the cool breeze blowing on the lake, Lu Xiang'er's heart suddenly calmed down.
Thinking of Lu Hong's performance during this time, Lu Xiang'er was a little hesitant, not knowing what kind of mood he would feel when he saw Xiang Qingya again. It can be said that if Xiang Qingya hadn't done so much, she would definitely be Lu Xiang'er's sister-in-law.
Whether male or female, it is hard to forget the first person you liked. Xiang Qingya is the first person Lu Hong likes, and Lu Hong is still the kind of person who will not look back. Even if Lu Hong said now that he didn't care anymore, Lu Xiang'er wouldn't believe it.
"Look, there's such a beautiful boat over there."
"It's your first time coming to Jingshi, of course you don't know, that painting boat is a gathering place for talented women in Jingshi. I heard that the owner of the painting boat is the little lady of the He family......"
Lu Xiang'er, who was walking, heard the 'little lady of the He family', and turned to look at the lake. I saw that on the clear lake, there was an elegant painting boat, slowly coming from far and near in the breeze. There are two large lanterns hanging on both sides, and there is a couplet hanging high below, which is really a bit elegant.
On the top of the viewing boat, there is a curtain hanging on the outside of the first floor, and you can only see that the people inside seem to be talking about something, and laughter can be heard from time to time. On the second floor, there is only a guardrail, and it is very clear that several little ladies are around a table, watching a little lady painting. Seeing this painting boat, it can be seen that there are really a lot of talented women in Jingshi.
Looking at the lake again, I don't know when many young men gathered to look at the painting boat. The boys, who had been prepared for a long time, had already gotten on the boat by the lake and were heading towards the painting boat. Seeing that some sons were trying to put on a plain appearance when they approached the painting boat, Lu Xiang'er couldn't help but smile slightly.
At this moment, a very luxurious painting boat quickly approached from the other side. On the second floor of the painting boat, there were several sons standing, all the while looking at those talented girls. When the two boats approached, the boys said a few words in a loud voice. The talented girls on the second floor immediately walked to the guardrail to talk to several sons, and the little lady who was painting also straightened up and walked to the guardrail at this time.
The little lady walked lightly, behaved elegantly, and spoke with a soft air, which at a glance knew that she was from a large family. Although from a distance, you can only see the side of this little lady, but you can also see that she is a fairy-like person.
Lu Xiang'er was originally looking at the two painting boats with the excitement of watching, but when she saw the side of the little lady, she was suddenly stunned. Lu Xiang'er, who couldn't believe her eyes, couldn't help but take a few steps forward. almost fell into the lake, but a little lady next to her pulled her, so as to avoid Lu Xiang'er from making a fool of herself in public.
However, Lu Xiang'er forgot to thank the person beside her, and looked straight at the little lady. Originally, Liao Wenbo told her about that incident, and Lu Xianger also came here with the intention of trying her luck. Unexpectedly, I really met her, the little lady who disappeared in Jiangling Mansion, Xiang Qingya.
