Chapter 17 Judging people by their appearance

At the beginning of the afternoon, the breeze is gentle and the sun is shining.

At the end of Qianmo Alley, white smoke curled up into the sky, and a gray-haired old woman squatted on the ground to turn paper money, hanging her head and crying silently.

The maid Xiaochun carried a bamboo basket on her wrist and helped Liu Yueying over, just as the old woman in the corner finished turning the paper money, stood up against the wall, cleaned up, staggered away, and passed by them.

The two of them came to the corner of the wall where the old woman had just squatted, and there was a thick stack of burned paper ashes, thinking that people often came over.

Koharu put down the basket, took out the incense candle foil, first lit a pair of white candles and inserted them on both sides, and then put another stick of incense in the middle.

Liu Yueying looked around, feeling that the environment here made her very uncomfortable, and urged: "Hurry up and leave." ”

Xiao Chun answered, and lit a piece of paper money with a fire fold: "Miss, as the old saying goes, the person who commits suicide is very angry, and if you don't give him some silver taels, I'm afraid that he will pester you in the future." ”

The wind brought up white smoke, Liu Yueying waved her hand, frowned, and said: "What are you pestering me for, he wants to die by himself, and I didn't force him." ”

Xiaochun threw the paper money in his hand into the fire and said, "Miss, you can't say that, after all, this is ...... last night."

Liu Yueying stared, Xiao Chun swallowed her saliva, held back the words behind, and said, "Miss, you should be a good person and send this lonely ghost away." ”

"Alright, alright." Liu Yueying covered her mouth and nose impatiently: "Hurry up and go back after burning it." ”

Xiao Chun pouted, lowered his head and burned the paper money seriously, but after a while, Xiao Chun thought of something and said, "Miss, this morning there was a rumor about the marriage between Lord Shen and a son of Dali Temple. ”

Liu Yueying was stunned for a moment and asked, "What did you say?" ”

Xiaochun tilted his head to look at the sky above the alley, and said with a wistful face: "It is said that the two of them are talented and beautiful, and they are a match made in heaven." ”

Liu Yueying's eyes dimmed, and she let out an indescribable sigh.

"Miss." Xiao Chun was obviously talking about it, and he kept chattering: "Miss, the son they are talking about is the white-clothed boy who appeared in the ring last night, and I don't know what the identity of that son is, but it seems that the family background should not be bad, and I think ah, I really haven't seen a better looking man than him, it's a pity, if it weren't for the fact that he had already married Lord Shen of Dali Temple, I think he and Miss are particularly compatible." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yueying's face showed a hint of shyness and joy, her eyes flowed, she looked forward to it, her hands were behind her back, and she rarely twisted and said: "Xiaochun ......"

"Huh?"

"You...... Do you really think so? ”

Koharu blinked: "What do you think?" ”

Liu Yueying kicked off the dust in front of her heels, a little annoyed: "What you just said! ”

"......" Koharu thought about it carefully, and suddenly said, "Ah, you mean to match this with Miss......"

Liu Yueying raised her chin and nodded.

"Yes, I think Miss and that boy are right." Xiaochun pouted: "Those people in the neighborhood just look at the Dali Siqing so they compliment, in my opinion, whether it is appearance or kung fu, where can she be as good as you, Miss." ”

Liu Yueying was happy in her heart when she said this, as if she was really covered up with Su Mu when she said this. However, this is just Xiaochun's wishful thinking, thinking of this, Liu Yueying lowered her crotch and shoulders in frustration.

Xiaochun saw it and said: "Miss, I think maybe there is still a chance, maybe that son doesn't really like each other, if he has been in contact with Miss for a long time, he will definitely like Miss, and if he is willing to withdraw from the marriage for Miss at that time, wouldn't it be a good thing." ”

Liu Yueying made Xiaochun's words come alive, imagining whether there was such a possibility.

At this time, Xiaochun had finished turning the paper money, stood up and patted the ashes on his body, put the basket on his shoulder, and said, "Miss, okay, let's go." ”

Just came out of Qianmo Lane, and the master and servant were both stunned, just because the two people who came to meet them were not the Dali Siqing and the white-clothed boy mentioned just now.

Shen Lingjun and the two of them naturally saw it, and when they saw that the other party's maid was carrying a basket in her hand, and the smell of freshly burned paper money was obvious on the two of them, and they came out of Qianmo Lane, they immediately understood a little.

I don't know when it began, a place at the end of Qianmo Lane has become a fixed place for people in Luoyang City to turn paper money.

The four of them stood opposite each other, and Xiaochun secretly pulled Miss, which means - losers don't lose battles, Miss, up.

Liu Yueying frowned and glanced at her, asked her to pause, and then clasped her fists in her hands and greeted her in the way of Jianghu people: "Lord Shen, Master Su." ”

Shen Lingjun replied with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Liu, why did she come out of Qianmo Lane." ”

Liu Yueying paused, can't it be said that since Xiaochun heard that Xiang Wentian died, he chattered for a morning, afraid that he would be haunted by his wronged soul, so he came to resolve it?

Xiaochun gave a salute and replied on his behalf: "My young lady saw that Xiang Wentian had no relatives and no reason, and no one worshiped when she died, so she came here to pay respects." ”

Shen Lingjun and Su Musha glanced at each other and smiled: "Miss Liu can be called a bodhisattva's heart." ”

Without waiting for Liu Yueying to answer, Xiaochun said quickly: "Yes, Lord Shen, my young lady has a good heart, she is good to everyone, and no one inside and outside is not praised." The words were said to Shen Lingjun, but his eyes looked at Su Musha.

After Xiao Chun finished speaking, Shen Lingjun just nodded, with an expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Liu Yueying felt that she was obviously sarcastic like this, and she was angry and annoyed in her heart, so she only shouted to Xiaochun: "Xiaochun, don't say it." ”

Shen Lingjun smiled and said, "Your maid is quite lively. ”

Liu Yueying didn't feel that Shen Lingjun was praising people at all, and frowned slightly: "Xiaochun is rude in front of adults. ”

"Are you paying tribute to the heavens?" Su Musha said.

Liu Yueying didn't prevent Su Musha from suddenly speaking, she was slightly stunned, looked at him, her heart jumped as if she had touched a string, her face turned red instantly, and then nodded: "Yes." ”

Su Musha was puzzled: "People died in the inn, the corpse is in Dali Temple, what is the use of you paying tribute in Qianmo Lane." ”

Su Musha's words were not intentional, he couldn't understand the thoughts of Liu Yueying and her, the maid, which was simply out of touch.

Liu Yueying was speechless for him, and Xiaochun didn't expect this son to be so indifferent and ruthless as soon as he spoke, which was completely different from what he imagined.

Shen Lingjun chuckled, stretched out his hand and patted Su Musha: "Mumu, you haven't lived here for a long time, you don't know, if a foreigner dies in Luoyang, or some homeless homeless people die, if someone worships, they will come to Qianmo Lane, which has become a local custom." ”

Su Musha nodded: "I see." ”

"However, I think Miss Liu is doing it too much." Shen Lingjun looked at Liu Yueying, shook his head, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, if it wasn't for Mu Mu's attack last night, you would have taken Xiang Wentian's life with a sword, so why bother to come again now." ”

Liu Yueying frowned and argued: "I'm not...... I was angry, and I didn't really want to take his life. ”

Su Mu said lightly: "Ling'er is right, you put up the ring and refuse to marry him, but now that he is dead, you come to pay tribute, just for your own peace of mind." ”

"I ...... I'm not ......" Liu Yueying wanted to refute, but she didn't know what to say, because what Su Musha said was the truth.

"You think Xiang Wentian is not worthy of himself." Shen Lingjun's dark eyes were slightly rippling, with a faint sarcastic smile, and then said, "What if you change to a beautiful young man?" ”

Liu Yueying couldn't help but secretly glanced at Su Musha when she heard this, and suddenly remembered a sentence in her heart, I don't know who said that people can't meet too amazing people when they are young, otherwise they will be mistaken for life.

"You like Mu Mu, if it was Mu Mu who won the ring last night, would you still do it?"

Su Musha glanced at Shen Lingjun, quite helpless, this girl has to bring herself from time to time.

Shen Lingjun's gentle and clever words knocked on Liu Yueying's heart, and she subconsciously denied it in her heart, no, of course she wouldn't do this.

Xiao Chun couldn't help but say loudly: "Last night, it was indeed this son who won, but it was ......" Xiao Chun looked at his young lady's face, and slowly spit out the words: "It's just that Lord Shen has a marriage contract with the son." ”

Liu Yueying was irritable in her heart, she didn't take care of Xiaochun, and she didn't expect her to say such embarrassing words in front of others, so she said angrily at the moment: "Xiaochun, you talk nonsense again!" ”

Koharu flattened his mouth and took a step back a little unconvinced.

Shen Lingjun shook his head and chuckled, she really didn't like Liu Yueying, she was too vain and unrealistic, and maybe she indirectly killed Xiang Wentian's innocent life, so her speech was naturally not good: "Miss Liu, a superficial person like you who only looks at the surface will not understand that if the two have the same heart, it has nothing to do with appearance." ”

Liu Yueying felt that she was quite aggrieved, and asked her to marry an ugly person like Xiang Wentian with a beautiful girl, isn't it a joke, but why does everyone think that they have done something wrong?

There were already a lot of rumors in the morning, and when I heard Shen Lingjun say this at this moment, his always arrogant and conceited character was exposed, and he protested: "Lord Shen said this because he already had it, so why should he laugh at others from above." ”

Su Mu said lightly: "The appearance of the skin is a passing thing, too persistent but forgot the original intention, Ling'er only said a word to you today, you consciously suffered humiliation and counterattacked, compare your heart to your heart, how do you ask the sky." ”

"Miss Liu, do you know that insulting someone in person is more uncomfortable than taking his life, don't do to others what you don't want to do to others, Xiang Wentian is dead, you respect yourself." Shen Lingjun said it, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with Liu Yueying anymore, so he dragged Su Mushao and left.

Xiao Chun snorted angrily and said, "Miss, they are too bullying." ”

Liu Yueying was annoyed, and said to Xiaochun with a burst of anger: "Shut up, it's all you talking nonsense." "Throw up your sleeves and walk forward alone.

"Miss......" Koharu followed.

Liu Yueying said angrily: "Get out." ”

There are many people in the market, and Liu Yueying is a kung fu person, it is very easy for her to get rid of Xiaochun, so Xiaochun only hesitated, and Liu Yueying was already gone.

Standing in place and stomping his feet, Koharu hurriedly ran to Liu's mansion.
