Chapter 18 Small fights are also pleasant

After Jiang Zhiyuan returned to the room, he thought about it carefully, and it seemed that there were some things that had to be explained, so he suddenly got up and walked quickly to Guo Xiaoxiao's door. Eagerly raised his hand to knock on the door, hesitated for a moment, but put it down again.

It was quiet at the moment, and he couldn't hear any sound in Guo Xiaoxiao's room. He stood in front of the door for a moment, turned slowly, hung his head, like a child who had lost his happiness, and returned aimlessly to his room.

Jiang Fengtan asked, "Master, we should hurry tomorrow, right?" ”

I have been staying in Wuxi for two days.

Seeing that Jiang Zhiyuan didn't answer, Jiang Feng said again: "If not, Lord Hai will probably send a letter to urge." ”

At this time, Jiang Zhiyuan said: "Since it is a private matter, what about urging." ”

He left the stool, then lifted his feet and slept on the bed: "He and his father are both prefects, why should he ask his father to visit him?" ”

"It stands to reason that it really shouldn't."

"So, my father sent me there, which is considered a social interaction."

"Then, the servant will go to the shopkeeper to make up some silver taels for the accommodation."

"Go, go, go." He said with a wave of his hand, closing his eyes.

Jiang Feng raised his feet and was just about to leave, when he said again: "Slow! ”

Jiang Feng stood in place, waiting.

"How many taels of silver are left?" He asked.

Jiang Feng hesitated for a moment and said, "The three guest rooms, plus the expenses for eating these days, have spent most of the silver taels. In a few days, I will go to the money bank to redeem the silver ticket. ”

Jiang Zhiyuan put his arm over his eyes, took a deep breath, sat up and said, "Leave tomorrow and go to inform the eldest lady to pack their things." ”

"Yes."

Jiang Feng got the order and went to inform Guo Xiaoxiao and the others. Guo Xiaoxiao has no objection, it's okay to leave Wuxi, but I don't know how long Jiang Zhiyuan will take Li Xiangcheng with him.

Early the next morning, several people were ready to go out with their luggage. After two days of rest, Jiang Zhiyuan and the others had the spirit to continue their journey.

Jiang Zhiyuan walked ahead, waiting for Guo Xiaoxiao and Li Xiangcheng outside the inn. Jiang Feng went to the backyard to bring the carriage and went to the counter to settle the bill.

Guo Xiaoxiao stroked the hair next to his neck and went downstairs, followed by Xiaolan and Li Xiangcheng. When I was walking to the bottom of the building, a scholar came up to me. The man was carrying a bookcase, as if he was going to enter Beijing to take the exam.

Guo Xiaoxiao thought that it was better not to let Jiang Zhiyuan wait too long, so he walked quickly, but he didn't expect to bump into the scholar and bump into the other party's shoulder.

Guo Xiaoxiao almost fell, but fortunately there was Xiao Lan behind him. The scholar was bumped into and was about to go berserk. When I looked up, I saw such a gentle and beautiful woman in front of me, and my anger suddenly disappeared.

Guo Xiaoxiao was stared at by him for a long time, hurriedly straightened his clothes, and quickly left the inn. As soon as he lifted the curtain of the carriage, he saw Jiang Zhiyuan sitting on the seat, Guo Xiaoxiao glanced at him and sat down in his seat.

It didn't take long for Li Xiangcheng to get into the carriage. When the personnel arrived, Jiang Feng waved his horsewhip and was about to hurry. Just then, a voice came from the inn.

"Miss, please stay, Miss, please stay!" I saw a man running out of the inn.

"Phew!" Jiang Feng heard the shouting and stopped the carriage again.

The man said, "Your young lady has dropped something." ”

Jiang Feng would not believe his words, and gave Xiaolan a look.

Xiaolan then looked at the thing in the man's hand, which was a handkerchief. The handkerchief was embroidered with a pony, and Xiaolan could see at a glance that it was a Shu embroidery from Guo Xiaoxiao's hand.

Guo Xiaoxiao has liked horses since he was a child, so he embroidered several embroidered handkerchiefs with pony patterns.

Confirmed, Xiao Lan nodded at Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng then said: "Thank you for this son, I will pass it on to my young lady." ”

When Jiang Feng stretched out his hand, the scholar's face was a little ugly, and he seemed unwilling to hand it over to Jiang Feng.

The scholar said: "Picking up Miss's silk handkerchief is also a fate, I want to make friends with Miss, I don't know what Miss wants?" ”

At this time, Jiang Zhiyuan in the carriage glanced at Guo Xiaoxiao, Guo Xiaoxiao thought about it, he didn't want to speak, but now he had to speak.

Guo Xiaoxiao said: "I'm really sorry for this son, I have to hurry to other places now, and I don't have any extra time to stay here." ”

When the scholar heard Guo Xiaoxiao answer his words, he was very happy, and said with a dead face: "It's really a pity that I didn't see the dignity of the young lady." I don't know which girl Miss is, but I hope Miss will give her an address, and she will come to visit her in the future. ”

"I'm sorry son, I've always liked to be alone, and I don't like to make friends."

Without waiting for the scholar to speak, Guo Xiaoxiao said again: "Jiang Feng, let's go, it's going to be dark if you don't go again." ”

Jiang Feng knew that talking too much to this kind of person was nonsense, and he wasted his mood in vain, so he wanted to drive forward.

"Slow!" Someone in the carriage was speaking again.

I saw Jiang Zhiyuan get up, open the curtain and walk down.

"Childe just said that I picked up my sister's silk handkerchief, and I specially came to get it from Childe for her." Jiang Zhi went far away.

The scholar smiled awkwardly, took out a silk handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Jiang Zhiyuan. I don't know when he received the span into his arms.

"Thank you." Jiang Zhiyuan said expressionlessly, turned around and quickly got into the carriage, "Go!" ”

The carriage staggered away from the inn, and the scholar stood still looking at the place, and did not return until the carriage disappeared.

Jiang Zhiyuan threw the silk handkerchief to Guo Xiaoxiao, but his eyes didn't look at her. Before Guo Xiaoxiao could pick it up, the silk handkerchief fell to the ground along her skirt.

Guo Xiaoxiao was not very happy, she let Jiang Feng go, she just didn't want to ask for that silk handkerchief anymore, but she didn't expect him to help her get it back.

Before she could start to put on a face, Jiang Zhiyuan was unhappy. So I just don't pick up this silk handkerchief!

Li Xiangcheng's eyes wandered around, observing the expressions of the two. The silk handkerchief fell to the ground, Guo Xiaoxiao didn't pick it up, and Jiang Zhiyuan didn't pick it up.

Li Xiangcheng bent down, gently picked up the silk handkerchief, and handed it to Guo Xiaoxiao.

Guo Xiaoxiao only glanced at it, then turned his head to the side and did not speak.

Li Xiangcheng looked at Jiang Zhiyuan, but Jiang Zhiyuan didn't say anything. Li Xiangcheng pursed her lips and slowly retracted her hand.

Wuxi to Suzhou has to pass through a post station. Several people had to stop and rest in the evening.

There are many people at the post station, and after Guo Xiaoxiao took a bath, he immediately packed up his clothes and went back to his room. When she closed the door with both hands, she was suddenly pulled by someone.

Guo Xiaoxiao turned around and was pressed against the door. She was about to scream, but the man covered her mouth.

Guo Xiaoxiao leaned his back against the door, beating his hands indiscriminately, only to hear the man say: "Don't fight, don't fight, it's me." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao heard a familiar voice, so he stopped what he was doing. As soon as she returned to the room, the candle had not yet been lit, and the room was very dark, and she could see the man's face clearly by the moonlight.

"Cousin, why are you?" Guo Xiaoxiao whispered. "It's pitch black, this game is not interesting."

No wonder there was no one in the room, Guo Xiaoxiao, thinking that he must have been paid by Jiang Zhiyuan.

Jiang Zhiyuan's hand crossed the door, pressed it on top of her head, and said, "I have something to ask you." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao rolled his eyes and said, "What? You're going to judge me? I'm not your prisoner. ”

"Miss Guo, you are more serious."

"Then what do you say?"

Jiang Zhiyuan said after a while: "That Sipa, how can you be where that scholar is?" ”

"You came here to ask me about this?"

"Don't talk about anything else."

"I don't know." Guo Xiaoxiao waved his hand.

"You ......," he said, holding her shoulders and eagerly, "that silk handkerchief is your personal possession, how could you not know?" ”

"Even if it's something close to you, there are times when you lose it, don't you?" Guo Xiaoxiao met his eyes, "Besides, that silk handkerchief was recovered from the lost path, but it was only a moment." I don't even know when I lost it. ”

Although Guo Xiaoxiao said this, his heart was like a mirror.

The handkerchief was probably lost when the man hit him on the shoulder. But she has always been very cautious, and she has not lost the impression of the silk handkerchief in her memory. Strange is Li Xiangcheng.

She walked behind Guo Xiaoxiao, and Guo Xiaoxiao got into the carriage before she came out of the inn, and after a while, the scholar came to look for him.

Regardless of whether the silk handkerchief is recovered in the end or not, it will make Jiang Zhiyuan suspicious of Guo Xiaoxiao. If Guo Xiaoxiao maintained an attitude of ignoring and not arguing afterwards, it would be confirmed that she had a relationship with the scholar.

At that time, the one who reaps the benefits of the fisherman is the plum orange. Although Guo Xiaoxiao thought so, he didn't say a word on his face. Without complete certainty, she won't act rashly.

Jiang Zhiyuan said: "Are you trying to take revenge on me because I got close to her?" ”

Guo Xiaoxiao knew that he was talking about Li Xiangcheng.

"Revenge?" Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, "You actually used such a vicious word as 'revenge' on me!" ”

"Isn't it?"

"Yes, I don't like her. I've long since gotten tired of her. But it can't be helped, you like him, you spoil her, what can I say? ”

"If you're feeling uncomfortable, you can tell me."

"Didn't I tell you?" Guo Xiaoxiao's stunned expression, "From the beginning, I made it clear that I didn't want us to take her to Suzhou." But have you listened to me? You don't! ”

"Did you talk to me before? I want to have a good talk with you, but you get angry without saying a few words, and your words are like sharp arrows with fire, shooting at people's bodies, and even the other party is on fire, can I not be angry? ”

"It's not because you're spoiling her. I'm your cousin, but you stand by her, wear a pair of pants, and talk to her. Guo Xiaoxiao said with some crying in his voice, "I'm your cousin, outsiders want to separate us, you don't know." You bastard, bastard......"

Just as she was crying, Jiang Zhiyuan suddenly hugged her tightly.

"It's me who is bad, it's me who is not good, I shouldn't have worn a pair of pants with her and helped her talk." Jiang Zhiyuan touched her head and continued, "It's me who is too confused, others want to get close to us to separate us, I don't know, they all blame me." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao buried his face in his shoulder, buried deeply. She wanted to cry a little, but she had to endure it, and the tears swirled and swirled in her eyes, but they never fell. Because she didn't want to use her tears to gain sympathy.

The two hugged for a long time, and Jiang Zhiyuan suddenly said, "You just said something that was not appropriate. ”

"What?"

"I didn't spoil her, because the person who lived in my heart was never her."

Guo Xiaoxiao sniffed, didn't say anything, smiled and punched him twice in the back.
