Chapter 68: The Ghost Lingers
“……”
Gu Zheng decided to ignore Liang Jingxian's words and forced him back with silence——— this cloak has been used for more than half a year, and I don't know if the pawn ticket can be found, Gu Zheng is powerless even if he wants to return it to him!
How do you know that Liang Jingxian suddenly seemed to be a different person, Gu Zheng ignored him, and he didn't care, he just picked up some irrelevant words and said: "I smiled at you when I was in Rongshoutang before?" ”
"Is there one?" Gu Zheng ignored Liang Jingxian with a pretty face, Liang Jingxian asked and answered himself, and he even told Gu Zheng a cold joke: "Oh, that's probably because my face has been tense for too long, and I don't get used to it, so I laughed." ”
“……”
This cold joke is so cold!
It was so cold that Gu Zheng couldn't help but glance at Liang Jingxian obliquely, and asked angrily: "I heard that you have been a guy who cherishes words like gold and has a black face like the bottom of a pot since you were a child, why do you suddenly talk a lot like a chatter today?" Please don't follow me again, if you have to follow, then please keep your silence as always, and don't talk to yourself in my ear! It's noisy! ”
After being counted by Gu Zheng, Liang Jingxian realized that he had indeed said a lot more today, and he was probably more than he had said in a whole month——— he was a person who didn't even want to say half a word in front of others, why did he unconsciously talk more when he was alone with Gu Zheng?
And all the gossip that doesn't matter, doesn't hurt, and sounds like nonsense......
He obviously hates this little thief who calculates his purse and cloak, how can he not help but approach her every time he sees her, tease her, and even take the initiative to joke with her just now!
When he first saw this little girl, he rarely felt pity for her, and took the initiative to take off his cloak to keep her warm; They met again after half a year, except that he hated this little girl a little at first, and then he liked her little by little, liked to make her angry, and watched her angry appearance......
What's so special about this little girl? To make him so abnormal?
Liang Jingxian couldn't find a suitable reason for his words and deeds, and even felt that anything like "the beginning of love", "young Huaichun", and "my fair lady and gentleman" could never happen to him Liang Sanshao.
So the more carefully Liang Jingxian analyzed what was wrong with him, the more he felt extremely puzzled in his heart, and his eyes involuntarily fell on Gu Zheng, seeing Gu Zheng's little face bulging, small mouth, a pair of clear beautiful eyes like anger, and then lined with the two red clouds flying on his cheeks, which looked cute and delicate, so that Liang Jingxian's eyes were reluctant to move away for a while, and the corners of his mouth were unconsciously upturned——— just didn't speak, and followed her silently all the way, it seemed to be pretty good!
It's a pity that this thought just slipped through Liang Jingxian's heart, and his neck was coldly strangled by an arm that suddenly came out, and then Luo Jinming's free and cheerful voice sounded: "Okay, you Liang San!" I said why didn't you see anyone in a blink of an eye, it turned out that you secretly came here to catch up with our sister Gu......"
Luo Jinming raised his face and smiled brightly at Gu Zheng as he spoke, revealing a neat row of white teeth: "Sister Gu, do you remember me?" ”
Gu Zheng tilted his head and looked at Luo Jinming for a moment, and shook his head in confusion: "I don't remember, Cousin Luo, could it be that we have met before?" ”
Gu Zheng's words made Luo Jinming suddenly look depressed, and his tone was full of grievances and dissatisfaction: "Sister Gu, I remember your appearance tightly, I recognized you at a glance when I was in Rongshoutang before, but how can you not remember me at all?" ”
Luo Jinming said and stretched out his finger to Liang Jingxian's handsome face, and asked unrelentingly: "Do you remember this kid?" He's the guy you cheated out of his purse and cape! You deceived so well and deceively! This guy has been depressed for more than half a year! Hehe, this guy has always been ...... Uh-huh......"
Before Luo Jinming finished his words that damaged Liang Jingxian, he was unceremoniously dragged away by Liang Jingxian, who had a black and handsome face, until the two of them walked away, and Gu Zheng could still vaguely hear Luo Jinming's dissatisfied complaints, to the effect that Liang Jingxian was stingy, and did not let people talk about his troubles, etc., which made Gu Zheng's mood instantly better, not only did his steps become brisk, but he also hummed a little song involuntarily.
However, although Gu Zheng was in a much happier mood, she still carefully analyzed the current situation along the way, and made a decisive and smart decision——— she must immediately and immediately draw a line with Liang Jingxian, the sought-after golden beetle son-in-law, otherwise she will not only become the public enemy of Cen Sanniang and several other little girls, but also be remembered by Mrs. Luo and Aunt Zhao!
So Gu Zheng thought about it carefully, thinking that the reason why Liang Jingxian had been pestering her was nothing more than that she couldn't swallow the breath that she had calculated, and tried every possible way to get the cloak that represented "shame" back...... In this case, as long as Gu Zheng pays back what he owes Liang Jingxian, they can immediately draw a clear line and have nothing to do with it!
After thinking about it so carefully and making a plan, the first thing Gu Zheng did after returning to Tingquan Courtyard was to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find the pawn ticket, but he didn't expect to really find the pawn ticket for Liang Jingxian's cloak in a small box! After having the pawn ticket, the second thing Gu Zheng did next was to count his own small treasury......
It's a pity that after Gu Zheng gathered all the money that belonged to her together, she found that her savings were really small and pitiful, and she really couldn't take it! This made Gu Zheng's hope of immediately drawing a line with Liang Jingxian completely shattered——— for now, only by thinking of saving more money can it be possible to redeem Liang Jingxian's cloak back!
It's just that the interest rate of this pawnshop has always been frighteningly high, and it has been rolling for half a year, and it takes about several times more silver than the original to redeem the cloak, right?
Let's not talk about how much silver it has to spend to redeem Liang Jingxian's cloak now, but how to make money and save money is also a big problem for Gu Zheng——— or not...... Every once in a while, I go to Mrs. Tai to sell cute, and pretend to be pretty and ask for a few rewards?
No way! Even if she is willing to shamelessly go to Rongshoutang every once in a while to sell cuteness, Mrs. Tai will only reward her with some precious things when she is coaxed to be happy, and will never reward her with white flowers and silver in a cheesy manner!
But the precious things that Mrs. Tai rewarded were all on the book, and they were not something that Gu Zheng could just take out and sell for money......
Just when Gu Zheng was pulling his hair with a sad face and trying to make money, a voice suddenly came from outside: "Girl, the sixth girl has come to see you." ”
In this Tingquan Courtyard, whenever Cen Yuanniang and Cen Liuniang come to Gu Zheng, they generally don't need to report it, and they can come in directly by shouting someone outside. Therefore, before Zhen'er's words fell, Cen Liuniang walked through the curtain and walked in......
Gu Zheng saw that Cen Liuniang, who was supposed to be lying on the bed to recuperate at this moment, suddenly came to visit, and was surprised and a little puzzled at the same time: "Sixth sister, you still have a wound on your head!" Why don't you rest in the house and come to me? If you have something to find me, ask a little maid to tell me, I'm in the past, why don't you get out of bed and run yourself! ”
Cen Liuniang's face was still a little pale, but she only smiled weakly when she heard Gu Zheng's words, and replied duplicitously: "I'm much better, it's okay to come out and walk around, you don't have to worry about me." ”
Gu Zheng still scolded her dissatisfiedly when he heard this: "How can you break your head in the morning and be all right in the afternoon?" ”
"Sister, don't be angry, I'm really fine, I'm here to ask you for something......"
Cen Liuniang's tone subconsciously became a little more nervous when she spoke, and there was a look on her face that wanted to speak and stopped, which made Gu Zheng feel puzzled: "It's okay for my sister to say it directly, you don't have to say anything, how can I help you?" ”
Gu Zheng's frankness and cheerfulness made Cen Liuniang's face look a little ashamed, and it also made her hesitate again and again before she asked in a low voice: "Did my sister tell your grandmother what happened today?" ”
Cen Liuniang only asked such a sentence, Gu Zheng understood her intention here, sighed slightly while feeling worthless for her, and replied truthfully: "I saw that Aunt Li and my sister didn't want to make a big deal about it, so naturally I didn't mention it to my grandmother...... Don't worry, my grandmother didn't know about it yet. ”
