Chapter 139 Chapter 139 Meeting the Deceased
Although Lu Xianger didn't want to have too much to do with Huo Qingsong, the shop in front of her really made her fall in love with it, so she had to accept Huo Qingsong's 'love'. And next, all the procedures for transitioning this shop from the original owner to Lu Xiang'er's name were also handled by Huo Qingsong.
Such a cumbersome matter should have been run for a day or two, but Huo Qingsong did it properly without an hour. No matter how Lu Xiang'er tried to avoid him, she couldn't act as if nothing had happened. After collecting the deed and title deed, Lu Xianger received Lu Hong's eyes and had to nod.
At this time, it was almost noon, and there were more people in the East Market, and Lu Xianger and a few people came out of the shop and blessed Huo Qingsong. At the same time, Lu Xiang'er also said softly: "General Huo has done everything for my Lu family, the little woman is very grateful. It's almost noon now, why don't I invite General Huo to a light meal, I don't know what the general thinks? ”
When Huo Qingsong heard Lu Xiang'er say 'for the Lu family', his brows furrowed slightly, but he quickly recovered as before. However, Huo Qingqing, who was looking at Huo Qingsong, could see from his face that Huo Qingsong seemed to be a little displeased. But when Lu Xiang'er finished speaking, he still nodded.
It's kind of weird. Huo Qingqing looked at Huo Qingsong with a calm face and muttered in his heart. And when she also followed Lu Xiang'er and Chaoxia into the carriage, she asked unintentionally as if she had reached something: "Xiang'er, you will be in time for half a year." ”
"Well, it's September to March next year, and it's really half a year." If Huo Qingqing hadn't mentioned it, Lu Xiang'er would have almost forgotten that she was about to turn fifteen. In the blink of an eye, it has been ten years since Lu Xianger came to the Great Zhou Dynasty. The bits and pieces that have happened in the past ten years really make Lu Xianger unforgettable.
Lu Xiang'er recalled the past again, but Chaoxia heard the meaning of Huo Qingqing's words, and couldn't help asking, "Why did Qingqing suddenly ask about this?" ”
"It's a big deal, of course I have to ask." Huo Qingqing's eyes rolled, and he said without a pause: "Xiang'er's aunt is about to be my aunt, and Xiang'er and Lu Hong naturally have to stay in the Jingshi." However, there are many dragons and snakes at the feet of this Tianzi, I don't want to know what kind of Langjun Xiang'er wants to find after the meeting. ”
"You are so arrogant and ashamed." Chaoxia heard Huo Qingqing's voice that was not lowered, and immediately looked at Xiao Wu who was driving through the curtain, and then gave Huo Qingqing a fierce look.
Huo Qingqing saw Chaoxia's movements, and immediately covered his mouth and snickered. However, when her eyes turned on Chaoxia's body, she remembered something, and tried to lower her voice and said: "Qingqing has forgotten that Chaoxia has already left the filial piety period and can get married, thinking that compared with Sister Chaoxia, Sister Chaoxia has to be one step ahead." ”
"That's right, Sister Chaoxia, I heard Zao'er talk about A-Niang's actions during this time, but I don't know what kind of person Sister Chaoxia wants to marry." Speaking of Chaoxia's marriage, Lu Xianger was also interested, and looked at Chaoxia with Huo Qingqing.
Chaoxia has been teased by Lu Xiang'er about this matter recently, and she has long been used to it, and she doesn't have two red clouds flying on her face like before. Looking at the two quirky little ladies who were laughing, Chaoxia swept her eyes and snorted softly: "Don't laugh too early, I think Qingqing is already in time, and the gate of the General's Mansion is about to be trampled on by the matchmaker." And Xiang'er, you only have half a year, see if you will still be smiling when the time comes. ”
'Uh-' When Lu Xiang'er and Huo Qingqing heard Chaoxia's words, they immediately lost their smiles and changed their faces to sadness. What Chaoxia said is not wrong, since Huo Qingqing and Lu, there will really be a matchmaker in the general's mansion in three or five days. Moreover, the other party is still a well-known figure in Beijing, but Huo Qingqing's nurse has a lot of words.
Huo Qingqing knew that most of those people were aiming for the name of 'General's Mansion', as well as the prestige of the Song State Mansion. There are also some sons of families who are not low in prestige who want to marry Huo Qingqing, mainly because they take a fancy to her beauty. Although some people are good-looking, Huo Qingsong found out that they had already raised multiple concubines at home.
Knowing this, Huo Qingqing didn't have a little thought. Huo Qingsong also had the intention of going with the flow, and did not force his sister. However, it is useless to hide, Huo Qingqing will still get married. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is okay to be divorced, but there is no unmarried little lady, who will be laughed to death.
But if he thought of what his future Lang Jun would look like, Huo Qingqing really couldn't think of it at all. After going to Jiangling Mansion to meet Liao Wenbo, Huo Qingqing felt a little heartbeat for him. But when he heard Lu Xiang'er talk about Liao Wenbo and Xiang Qingya's partnership to calculate Lu Xiang'er, Huo Qingqing immediately threw the only trace of thought that he had left after returning to Beijing to 108,000 miles.
"Qingqing, it's here, get off." Lu Xiang'er saw that the carriage had stopped, but Huo Qingqing did not move, so she had to remind her loudly. Huo Qingqing came back to his senses and was the last to get out of the carriage.
Huo Qingsong and Lu Hong got out of the carriage and stood in front of a four-story restaurant waiting for Lu Xiang'er and the three of them. At this time, Lu Hong looked at the restaurant in front of him. Lu Xiang'er said that she wanted to have a treat, and Huo Qingsong said the name of the restaurant, 'Ruyi Building', and Lu Hong didn't think that he would casually point out a place.
At this time, if you take a closer look, this restaurant is really different. Not to mention that it is tall and covers a large area, but to say that it is facing a shimmering lake in front of it, you can see how elegant the owner of this restaurant is. In this cool autumn, sitting in the restaurant and watching the little lady who travels to the lake together, and the elegant scholar who talks about poetry and ancient times, what a 'comfortable' thing it is.
Just thinking about it, Lu Hong became extremely interested. If Huo Qingsong hadn't been there, he would have entered the restaurant first. Therefore, when Lu Xiang'er and the three of them got out of the carriage, Lu Hong couldn't wait to 'open the way' with Huo Qingsong in front.
It just so happened that at this time, a few guests were walking away, and Lu Hong leaned to the side. Unexpectedly, one of those people turned around at the door and really came towards Lu Hong. Before the man approached Lu Hong, he said in surprise: "Senior Brother Lu, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?" ”
"Liao ......" Lu Hong looked at the person in front of him, and immediately turned to look at Lu Xiang'er.
Last night, Lu Hong met Feng Wen, and only then did he know from his mouth that Liao Wenbo had also come to Beijing to participate in the examination. For this matter, Lu Hong was a little prepared, and he was not too surprised. You must know that Liao Wenbo is the second place in the township test, how could he give up his career and become a businessman. However, Lu Hong never imagined that he would meet Liao Wenbo so soon. Because he hadn't told Lu Xiang'er that Liao Wenbo had come to Jingshi.
Lu Hong was shocked when he saw Liao Wenbo, and Huo Qingsong, who was standing beside him, was also a little surprised. However, Huo Qingsong's subtle expression can't be found by ordinary people without looking carefully. And Lu Xiang'er, Chaoxia, and Huo Qingqing, who were following behind, were even more stunned, and the three of them didn't expect that there would be such a coincidence in the world.
When she heard Liao Wenbo's voice, Lu Xiang'er immediately knew that it was him. Thinking of one scene after another in Jiangling Mansion, Lu Xiang'er suddenly didn't know how to face this person who clearly said that he had a good impression of her. If it weren't for that incident, Lu Xianger might really choose Liao Wenbo after the meeting.
Liao Wenbo has been in Beijing for a few days, and he has come here today with a few new students. He didn't expect to meet Lu Hong here, and he didn't believe his eyes for a while. It can be seen that Lu Hong looked back, and Liao Wenbo's heart also jumped suddenly, and he subconsciously followed and looked over.
Seeing the person who had tormented him for a long time, although Liao Wenbo's expression had not changed much, he was still gentle, but a look of surprise flashed quickly in his eyes. Huo Qingsong, who had been secretly paying attention to Liao Wenbo, saw the changes in Liao Wenbo's eyes, and his expression immediately deepened.
Compared with when he was in Jiangling Mansion, Liao Wenbo is obviously mature, and the city government is much deeper. In Huo Qingsong's impression, when Liao Wenbo was in Jiangling Mansion, when he saw Lu Xiang'er, he would definitely rush to her immediately. From the beginning of the meeting, Liao Wenbo only had something abnormal in his eyes when he saw Lu Xiang'er. In addition, he has always been the elegant Liao Gongzi who holds a folding fan in his hand.
"I didn't expect to meet Senior Brother Lu here, I'm really happy to be a brother." Liao Wenbo nodded to Lu Xiang'er's three little ladies, and then nodded to Huo Qingsong before looking at Lu Hong with a smile.
Liao Wenbo acted as if nothing had happened, which obviously made Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er slightly stunned. Lu Xiang'er thought that he would walk in front of him and explain something again, but he didn't expect Liao Wenbo to be like when he first met her.
Lu Hong was also strange in his heart, but it was Huo Qingsong who secretly touched him lightly before he reacted. After saluting Liao Wenbo back, Lu Hongcai smiled slightly: "Little brother didn't expect to meet Senior Brother Liao here, it's really a coincidence." ”
"Master Jing is so big, Brother Wei and Senior Brother Lu can still meet, which proves that there is still the word 'fate' in this world." Liao Wenbo smiled slightly, then turned around and motioned to the people who came with him to take a step first.
Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er felt that Liao Wenbo's words were very meaningful, and their hearts were sudden. I don't know what's going on, Liao Wenbo at this time actually made the brother and sister have a lot of apprehension. This is a feeling that the brother and sister have never had when they were in Gangneung Mansion.
Huo Qingsong, who was standing on the side, had his hand behind his back, but suddenly his grip tightened. And when he heard Liao Wenbo's words, Huo Qingsong's hands suddenly tightened again, but they quickly let go again. Chaoxia, who was standing behind Huo Qingsong, was very keen, and soon discovered Huo Qingsong's actions, and couldn't help but tilt her head sideways to show a thoughtful look.
In other words, when Liao Wenbo turned around, he still had that gentle smile, but he chuckled: "When I was in Jiangling Mansion, I was very good at talking with Senior Brother Lu. Today we are meeting again, and I want to talk to Senior Brother Lu for my brother. I don't know if you mind, one more pair of chopsticks? ”
