Chapter Twenty-Three: A Little Subtotal (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Wang Cheng greeted Hua Duchen and his party to the hall with some trepidation, and gave up the main seat.
Today is Wang Cheng's old mother's birthday, but where does he dare to hold on to it, he has already asked people to help Mrs. Wang wait here, and when he saw that Hua Duchen was coming, he stepped forward to pay a visit.
Hua Duchen accepted her salute, motioned to a woman in white behind her to present a congratulatory gift, and said, "There is a lot of disturbance when you come to visit suddenly, and a little congratulatory gift is a little congratulatory gift to express your heart." ”
Mrs. Wang was flattered, and hurriedly looked at Wang Cheng, not knowing whether to accept it or not.
Mrs. Wang nodded desperately on the side, this jade ring was crystal clear, and it was extraordinary at a glance. Besides, what the young master of the Hua family took out his hand could be mortal?
Wang Cheng couldn't make up his mind in his heart, not knowing whether to put it away or not, for fear of angering Hua Duchen. Simply, he closed his eyes and let Mrs. Wang choose by herself.
There was no feedback from him, so Mrs. Wang glanced at her daughter-in-law and accepted it with both hands. Seeing that Hua Duchen was not displeased, Wang Chengcai breathed a long sigh of relief.
"I wonder what scenery you have to enjoy here?" Twilight asked, tapping her index finger lightly on the back of her chair.
"Yes, yes. We have a Houzhao River here, and the river is a must. Referring to the beautiful scenery of his hometown, Wang Cheng straightened up and said, "In the evening, I was boating on the river. Boiling a pot of fish, tasting tea, and reciting poetry is a great thing. ”
He has no fame and does not understand these words. These words were specially written by him in the county and asked the literati to write them, and they were specially memorized, which was used to introduce Nanfeng Town.
"That's very good."
I don't know which sentence pleases Twilight, but he suddenly laughed, his smile like a spring sun.
His smile softened the sharp lines on his face, and he no longer saw alienation and coldness. It's as if suddenly a different person is so harmless, but it is confusing.
Faced with such a handsome face, Wang Cheng found that he couldn't resist himself, so he hurriedly lowered his head.
"I just heard singing opera, why is there no gong and drum sound?" Twilight asked.
"I'm going to let people start the gong." Wang Cheng hurriedly responded and said, "The stage is set up in the back, and please move the young master." ”
Hua Duchen bowed slightly, and the group walked towards the back.
Beside him, a thin man in black appeared at some point, whispering a few words in his ear.
A smile tugged on Twilight's lips as she ordered, "Keep staring at her." ”
He walked calmly in the crowd, but he cut himself apart and immersed himself in his own world.
Xu Sanchun's life, he is very familiar with it, and he has even seen her portrait.
It was he who worked hard to create his own big array, and pulled a soul from the other world that could fit Xu Sanchun perfectly and threw it into her body. How could he not be familiar?
Hua Duchen's thoughts, Xu Sanchun naturally had no way of knowing. She only regarded him as a passerby who had never crossed paths by chance.
At this moment, she was figuring out the terrain in Baojia Mansion and sneaked into the warehouse while people were not paying attention. Originally, someone was watching here, but because of the arrival of Hua Duchen, everything was messed up, which just gave Xu Sanchun convenience.
She blended into the queue to deliver the congratulatory gifts into the storeroom and served a tray of red lacquer for someone. When it was time to put it back in storage, she took advantage of the chaos to hide in the corner.
The congratulatory gifts were placed, and calm was restored in the storeroom. Xu Sanchun waited for a while before leaning out and walking to the interstitial. The position of the interstitial screen, she had already seen clearly when she gave the congratulatory gift.
Uncovering the red satin covering the interstitial, Xu Sanchun concentrated and found the thread she had reserved on the back of the interstitial. With a slight tug, she pulled out two silk threads.
It has only changed slightly, but the graphics on the interstitial screen have changed dramatically.
Xu Sanchun nodded with satisfaction and put on the red satin again. She wants to see how Xu Lan will end today!
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and the voices of two people came from far and near.
"What did I say, huh?! The warehouse is full of important things, and it is impossible to leave anyone for a moment! "It's a stern female voice, and it sounds like a steward.
"Auntie, don't be angry, I'm just going to be a compliment, it's only less than half an hour away." The voice was flattering and full of flattery, "There will be nothing wrong, in this Nanfeng Town, who dares to go to our mansion to spread wild?" ”
The steward snorted coldly: "Out of Gong? Izuku wants two people together?! ”
"Don't be angry, there's a booklet, we'll go through it to make sure nothing is missing."
"What if it's bad?"
"If it's bad, I'll make up for it." The man slapped his chest loudly, because he was sure that no one dared to get along with Bao Jia.
When Xu Sanchun heard this, his heart was anxious.
There were no congratulatory gifts in the storeroom, and it was only a matter of time before they came in to check the roster, revealing themselves.
She crept behind a cage and thought of a countermeasure. Not really, when they come in, they can play hide and seek.
The two men were about to enter the door, but there was a burning smell in the air.
"What does it smell like?"
"Looks like it's on fire?"
The two glanced at each other, saw the horror in each other's eyes, and didn't care about this anymore, and hurriedly ran in the direction where the smell came from.
Xu Sanchun breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly came out of it, looked left and right at the door, and saw that there was no one else, so he sorted out his clothes and walked out.
The first goal of coming here was completed, and her mood was a little lighter. There was a smile between the eyebrows, and the apricot eyes were as clear and moving as spring water.
She didn't notice that behind a large tree, a pair of eyes were watching her, it was the man in black who had just been beside Twilight. His name is Jackdaw, and he is one of Twilight's most trusted henchmen.
Seeing Xu Sanchun leaving, the jackdaw immediately followed. The things that the young master explained are the purposes that must be completed.
A few moments after the two men left, the two returned to the storeroom. The steward muttered, "Which kid is so naughty that he even ordered leaves to play." ”
Unbeknownst to them, the leaves were set on fire by jackdaws. The purpose, of course, is just a little trick to divert the tiger from the mountain.
Today's Baojia Mansion is the most lively place in Nanfeng Town, and people with heads and faces have come. Seeing that it was almost time to open the feast, the courtyard was full of busy people.
The sushido in the main hall has been set up and is waiting for the arrival of the master.
Xu Sanchun was mixed in the crowd, carefully avoiding the Xu family's sight, paying attention to the traces of Sun Yuanwai's family.
However, as the major shareholder of the Tiantai Township Salt Farm, Sun Yuanwai is a talkative person here, and he is accompanying him to watch the play, and he is not in Shoutang.
It's just that because of the arrival of Hua Duchen, all the people watching the play seem absent-minded and have no intention of watching the play, even the old lady Wang who has passed her birthday is no exception. The one who watched the most focused became Hua Duchen, an originally irrelevant outsider.
As soon as they heard that Shoutang had finished preparing, the people all breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards Shoutang.
