Chapter 6 Waiting for the Rabbit
The lazy sun shines on the streets, and the pedestrians on the road come and go, and the traffic is busy.
In the largest restaurant in Beijing, a young girl leaned against the window, holding up her small chin with her right hand, looking at the bustling street scene outside the window, thoughtfully.
It seems that she has to go home empty-handed again today, Ruan Cailing sighed faintly.
Qingrui stood quietly to the side, looking at her puzzled.
I don't know what kind of fun my own lady is these days, every day to this Ruyi Zhai, just sit in this position every day and look out the window in a daze, and every time I pack all the jade bean cakes of Ruyi Zhai and take them away, and distribute them to the people in the house, everyone has a share.
Yesterday, the eldest girl in Mrs. Jingshu's courtyard secretly complained to her, saying that she was almost tired of eating this jade bean cake every day in the past few days, and no matter how delicious the pastry was, it couldn't stand eating it every day.
Qingrui thought to herself, fortunately, this Dingguo Mansion has a big business, if an ordinary family continues to squander it like this for its own young lady, maybe it will go bankrupt at some point.
"Alas......" Ruan Cailing sighed again, got up and patted her clothes, "Qingrui, let's go." ”
Glancing out of the window without giving up, there was still nothing, Ruan Cailing lowered her eyes in disappointment, but unexpectedly saw a familiar figure walking towards the restaurant.
"Qingrui, hurry up, we should go back." Ruan Cailing was so excited that her voice trembled a little, and she raised her steps and hurriedly walked downstairs.
The old lady and princess of Xuanwangfu like to eat the jade bean cake of this Ruyi Zhai in the capital very much, so every half month, Gu Jinxi will personally go to Ruyi Zhai to buy pastries for her grandmother, which is definitely a good opportunity to meet by chance.
Sure enough, Ruan Cailing just walked to the counter downstairs, and heard the slightly apologetic voice of the shopkeeper: "I'm really sorry, Lord Shizi, this jade bean cake has been ordered by a young lady, take a look, how about changing the pastry?" ”
"None of them?" Gu Jinxi's good-looking brows furrowed.
"Yes." The shopkeeper nodded.
Mu Bai, the entourage beside Gu Jinxi, asked unrelentingly, "Shopkeeper, see if you can spare another jade bean cake, my old woman loves to eat your jade bean cake the most, our lord is also a frequent visitor to yours, can you be accommodating?" ”
"This ......" the shopkeeper shook his head in embarrassment, "The villain can't help it, after all, come first and come first......"
When Ruan Cailing heard this, she thought to herself, it was time, she quickened her pace, walked towards the counter, and a soft voice sounded, "Shopkeeper, is my jade bean cake packed?" ”
"Okay, miss, wait a minute, I'll have someone bring it to you." The shopkeeper's head should be there.
Gu Jinxi's eyes also paid attention, and the woman in front of her was wearing a blue dress, with beautiful eyes and a smile on her face.
Rao is well-informed, and he doesn't admit that this woman is a rare and beautiful woman.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Er in the store finally handed over the packaged pastries to Qing Rui.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Jinxi stepped forward and took a few steps forward, and said, "This young lady, if it is convenient, can you give you a copy of the jade bean cake you ordered?" Willing to pay double the price. ”
Ruan Cailing was secretly happy in her heart, but she pretended not to be shocked on her face, and said with a smile, "You are really interesting, why every time I meet you, I have to be robbed of something." ”
Gu Jinxi was stunned for a moment, and didn't understand what she meant for a while.
After a while, he finally remembered that it seemed that Ji Jingyan had snatched a rabbit lamp from a woman at the Hundred Flowers Festival a few days ago.
"You were the young lady from the last Hundred Flowers Festival?" Gu Jinxi hesitated.
Ruan Cailing smiled and nodded, but she was a little disappointed in her heart, okay, people didn't remember her at all.
Gu Jinxi was speechless for a while, and grabbed things from the same lady three times and twice, it seemed that it was not very polite, so after thinking about it, it would be better to come back tomorrow.
Ruan Cailing looked at him with a hesitant look funny, and said, "That's it, just think it's my fate with my son." ”
Turning his head sideways, he instructed Qing Rui behind him, "Qing Rui, take a copy of the jade bean cake to this son." ”
Qing Rui stretched out her hand and handed one of the pastries to Mu Bai behind Gu Jinxi, and the master and servant then walked out.
Gu Jinxi called out to her, "Miss, please wait a minute, the silver ...... of this pastry."
Ruan Cailing turned around and interrupted him with a light smile, "No need, there were ancient kings who smiled for the Pomeranians, and the princes of the Beacon Fire Opera, today, I should be greedy for beauty and borrow flowers to offer Buddha." ”
After finishing speaking, the master and servant went out of Ruyizhai.
Gu Jin Xi Junlang's face was slightly hot, and he forgot to move for a while, is he being molested?
A certain entourage next to him who didn't know how to look at his face came up and asked, "Master, what kind of pig and monkey did that young lady say?" What does that mean? ”
Gu Jinxi came back to his senses, glanced at him, pursed his thin lips, and said lightly: "Go back tonight and copy the "Old History of Chu State". ”
"Huh?"
Mu Bai wailed, I can't wait to slap myself with a big mouth on the spot, telling you to talk more!
Ruan Cailing walked out of the restaurant happily, and caught a glimpse of a sneaky figure not far away.
Quietly continuing to walk forward, Ruan Cailing asked softly, "How is it?" Have you found out where those people came from? ”
"Well, I found out, those people are just some hooligans and ruffians in the capital, Li Wen secretly followed Miss Table a few days ago, and found that she went out with Gongzi Xie and bought off a few gangsters, I heard them say that they want to play a scene in front of you, Miss, let those gangsters pretend to tease Miss you, and then let Gongzi Xie appear at the right time."
Qing Rui's tone was full of indignation, she didn't expect this young lady to be such a person, no wonder her own young lady had to watch out for her. and that Xie Gongzi, who seems to be a talent, how can he do this kind of thing secretly, he really knows people and knows his face.
Ruan Cailing thought to herself, the two of them were really so vicious.
In this way, regardless of whether she will like Xie Qingyuan because of this, even if it is for her reputation, her father will marry her to Xie Qingyuan, which is really a double win.
Fortunately, she expected it in advance, not only always paying attention to the news from Xiyuan, but also transferring a few better guards to follow.
Xie Qingyuan, I'm really looking forward to your next move, and I'll let you know what it means to reap the consequences.
Now you are fledgling, in my opinion, but an ant.
It's just that it would be better if you could kill two birds with one stone.
Ruan Cailing decided to make a plan and said to Qing Rui, "Qing Rui, go back now and ask the boy in the restaurant just now for help, just say that I was entangled by a group of hooligan ruffians. ”
"What about you, miss?" Qingrui looked at her uneasily.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Ruan Cailing knows Xie Qingyuan very well, since a person like him has the mentality of marrying her, he will definitely not let himself marry an unclean woman, so she will definitely be fine.
"Let's go."
After urging, Ruan Cailing deliberately amplified her voice again: "Qingrui, I forgot something in the restaurant, you go and help me get it back, I'll wait for you here." ”
Seeing that she insisted, Qingrui had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the restaurant.
The people in the alley relaxed their vigilance when they saw that the maid beside Ruan Cailing had left, leaving her alone.
In the alley, several people dressed as gangsters came out one after another.
"Yo, little beauty, why are you alone?" The bastard who took the lead opened his mouth in a puff.
Ruan Cailing glanced at him expressionlessly and did not speak.
"I'm still a cold beauty, it's delicious enough, I like it." The thug laughed a few times, and a few of his attendants also coaxed.
"Little beauty, let's go with my brother, my brother will take you to have a good time." As he spoke, he stretched out his dirty hand to pull Ruan Cailing.
Ruan Cailing took a step back and avoided it.
"Stop!"
Xie Qingyuan, who had been waiting on the side for a long time, finally walked out, "In broad daylight, you actually robbed the people's daughters, do you still have a royal law in your eyes." ”
