Chapter 17: The plot failed
The carriage soon reached the foot of Mt. Aoe.
The day after tomorrow is the death day of the county lord of Shangyi, and the main road up the mountain has already retreated from others, and only the people of the eldest princess's mansion are allowed to go up and down, so Xia Li took Xia Wanrou and others to climb up from the side path.
The Xia family has been dilapidated for many years, and the wife daughter of the Xia family has long since become no longer pampered, so it is not difficult to climb this small Qingzhong Mountain.
When the four of them got off the car, they saw that a flashy carriage had been parked at the foot of Qingzhong Mountain, and under the carriage was a mother-in-law with a gloomy face and a few small men with big shoulders and round waists.
On the edge of the carriage hung an iron sign that read Fat Jade Fang.
It's here to pick up the summer evening.
Xia Li quickly glanced around, and saw that there was no one else, so he nodded to the other party, and then quickly went up the mountain.
After walking far, Xia Li's face was still ugly.
She said coldly: "Where you can't get on the stage, the people who come out will never be on the stage." What is the identity of our Xia family, they greeted us just now, if they were seen by others, what would they think of our Xia family! A hundred years of reputation, I am afraid that it will be ruined in their hands. ”
Xia Wanxin nodded: "A place like Fat Jade Fang, it is said that it sells jade, but what is really sold, who doesn't know this Lin'an City, people who come out of that kind of place are inevitably frivolous." ”
Xia Wanrou, who was about to enter that kind of place, followed behind them with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
Xia Li didn't react to that kind of thing for a while, but Xia Wanxin did it on purpose, she wanted to insult this sister who had changed her personality and make Xia Wanrou feel embarrassed.
Ah Fu felt a little sympathetic to Xia Wanrou in his heart, but after thinking about it, what was the matter with him, if it wasn't for Xia Wanrou's refusal to write and sell it to her yesterday, the money in his hand would not be enough to buy another carriage.
The group had different thoughts and continued to go up the mountain.
At the same time, two light horsemen appeared at the foot of the mountain, one in front of the other.
It was the wolf king Mu Siyan and his entourage Mu Qi.
Mu Qi pointed to the carriage of the Fat Jade Workshop and said to Mu Siyan: "Master, that is the person who came to pick up Miss Xia, if we move quickly, we can still rush back to see the excitement of the eldest lady climbing into the carriage of the Fat Jade Fang." ”
"Who said I wanted to see her enter the Jade Workshop? There's something more fun than this. ”
Mu Siyan hooked the corners of his mouth, rode his horse up the main road of Qingzhong Mountain, and Mu Qi followed in confusion.
At the end of the main road is the top of Qingzhong Mountain, on which a house with red tiles and white walls is built, and the book merchant Yi County Lord's Mansion is up. It was built by the eldest princess herself after the lord of Shangyi County went to the fairy. Every year, a few days before the death day of the lord of Shangyi, the eldest princess will move here to live.
Mu Siyan's destination is the Shangyi County Lord's Mansion.
When Xia Wanrou was worshipping her deceased father, her movements were very slow, she was waiting, waiting for the arrival of the eldest princess.
In order to "greet" the eldest princess in the most "sad" posture, she kept recalling the scene of being angry in the last life, being bullied by King Lang, and being rejected by the Xia family, and soon cried into a tearful person.
Xia Li thought she was crying for her life, and felt guilty again.
couldn't help but sincerely open her mouth to comfort: "Rourou, you can go with confidence, when your brother is born, my mother will redeem you with money, and then I will find you an honest man to marry." ”
Xia Wanrou ignored her and concentrated on crying herself.
However, time passed by a centimeter, and the eldest princess's people never came to look for her.
She couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
The private bookstore in Lin'an City, Xia Wanrou heard the champion say when she was in the fat jade shop in her last life, that it was the eldest son of the eldest princess, Gu Shizi's property. It's been two or three days, and her words shouldn't have appeared in front of the eldest princess yet.
Unless......
Xia Wanrou looked at Ah Fu and looked at it carefully.
She found that Ah Fu hid a joy in her eyes that she hadn't noticed in the past two days, and her heart jumped, and she realized that Ah Fu should have deceived her.
She glanced at Xia Li and Xia Wanxin, who were already waiting impatiently, collected her tears, got up and said, "Let's go down the mountain!" ”
Since this road was destroyed in Ah Armrest's hands, there is no need for her to continue to wait, she should cheer up and plan a second path as soon as possible.
As for the second way, she had already planned a prototype in her heart as early as in her previous life, but it was only because she had been taking care of the "relatives" of the Xia family that she never made the trip.
After going down the mountain, I saw the mother-in-law waiting in front of the carriage of the fat jade fang, with impatience on her face.
Xia Wanrou walked towards the flashy carriage step by step, and the three people behind her were all secretly happy or gloating, and no one was worried.
