Chapter 427: The Belly of a Gentleman

Chen Shao didn't seem to hear it, and only looked at Xingwei silently.

Xingwei pursed his lips and said, "Besides, you lost your official position at that time, and you always ran out, and you want to pretend that you don't care, where will I have the opportunity to talk to you?" And again, the old lady sent ......"

He suddenly stopped, pursed his lips, and swung his head in the direction of the curtain: "...... Don't tell me you don't know who Qiao'er is? ”

"Mother...... Mrs. Xu is kind-hearted, and Qiao'er is also very good. Chen Shao's face was indifferent, only staring at the gaze on his face, which was as cold as an arrow: "You don't have to talk about it." When I was in the Guogong Mansion, there were many people, so I won't mention it for the time being. After we moved out of the country, you had plenty of opportunities to be honest with me, so why didn't you mention it? ”

"I forgot." Xingwei said expressionlessly: "After the division of the mansion, there are a lot of things to do at the master's end, and you didn't ask me, I am busy with the master's affairs all day long, how can I remember these little things about you?" ”

Chen Shao looked at him steadily, and after a long time, he suddenly smiled: "Very good." ”

He nodded, as if he was very satisfied, and there was no anger on his handsome face, only gentleness: "You are really a good dog, and it is not in vain that your master uses you so much." ”

"I serve my master, but I don't work for you." Xing Wei said unceremoniously, his expression was naturally flat, not at all intimidated by his words, and his tone was calm: "Since I talked about Chen Li, there is another thing I will know you, so that you don't have to blame me for not reminding you afterwards." Chen Li found Cheng Kee Bookstore. ”

"Oh?" Chen Shao raised his eyebrows, lazily picked up a bundle of hair, wrapped it around it in his hand a few times, released it, bent his arm on the desk, looked at the curtain, and didn't look at him: "So what?" Could it be that your master wants to kill the old man who is in the old clothes shop? ”

"What are you going to do to kill him?" Xingwei looked at him with strange eyes, and sneered again: "Aren't you stupid?" Lao Cheng is not more expensive than Zhou Chaogui, Zhou Chaogui is connected to you behind him, and the master has to kill him for you. The old achievements are different. He was a shopkeeper of old clothes, and the shop was full of people, and he just provided a place, and killing him would reveal his tracks. ”

He paused for a moment and said nonchalantly: "Lao Cheng doesn't know much, so it doesn't matter if you keep it, but-"

His voice dragged on a little longer, and he looked at Chen Shao, his eyes revealing deep meaning: "Chen Li's head, you really have to be careful." I heard that he bought a few clothes from Lao Cheng and left, and I didn't know what he was going to do, but fortunately Lao Cheng was honest in business, and he didn't sell the few pieces I specified. You, who are the second brother, can't look at it so vain. Even if the government is divided, you are still brothers in your blood and bones. ”

Chen Shao looked at the brocade curtain with a lazy expression: "Your master asked me to interview Master Chen Si for this?" ”

"I don't know." Xing Wei said very simply, and added: "However, I guess this is the reason." ”

He looked at Chen Shao again, as if he was a little gloating: "You have to pay more attention, Chen Li is on the momentum now." I have heard the master talk about what happened to you back then, but I am afraid that he is not far from you back then. If you can't persuade him, the master will be embarrassed, and I won't be able to explain it. ”

Chen Shao threw a glance at him, which was extremely light and cold: "A dog can't explain anything, it's a joke." ”

He sneered twice, and then immediately retracted: "Go back and tell your master, I know about this matter, and I will deal with it well." ”

After speaking, he showed a smile again, and looked at Xing Wei playfully: "Your master has always been kind-hearted, even if I don't persuade Master Chen Si, I guess I won't cause him to be killed, don't you say?" ”

Xing Wei looked at him coldly, and only replied with one sentence: "The heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman." ”

When Chen Shao heard this, he didn't laugh angrily, and said, "Okay, good, good, then I'll wait to see your master's belly of a gentleman." After that, he didn't wait for him to answer, and called out: "Qiao'er come in." ”

Xing Weiyuan wanted to say more, but he was forced to retreat by his words, so he had to shut down.

Qiao'er had been waiting under the porch, and when she heard the sound, she came in with the curtain.

Xingwei had already changed his face at this time, standing respectfully with his hands tied, his eyes looking down at his feet, which was the standard posture of his servants facing his master.

"Xingwei went out to run errands today, it's hard work, and when you send someone to the account room to get a penny of silver, you say that I rewarded it." Chen Shaowen said with a smile, his clear voice contained warmth and kindness, teaching people to warm up from their hearts.

"Thank you, sir." Xingwei knelt down and bowed.

Chen Shao looked down at his shorter figure, and the smile on his face became more and more gentle: "Get up quickly, it's very cold, look freezing." ”

Xingwei got up according to his words, and Chen Shao said to Qiao'er again: "Xingwei bought some paper and ink for Mrs., you can send it over, don't ask Mrs. to wait for a long time." ”

Xingwei's lowered face showed a sneer, and when he looked up, his face was full of courtesy, he raised his hand to untie the burden behind him, handed his hands to Qiao'er, and said flatteringly: "Thank you, Sister Qiao'er." ”

The maid in the inner house, the common honorific title is sister, although Xingwei is bigger than her, this sister should be called.

Qiao'er took it with a smile, and Chen Shao urged her: "Go quickly, Madame should be in a hurry." ”

Qiao'er squatted down and saluted, Fang Zi went, before leaving, he still closed most of the door, the curtain was also hung steadily, and he told the little servants a few words.

Chen Shao walked to the door and looked at the curtain.

The door of the green lacquer courtyard is half opened, Qiao'er's figure is stepping out of the courtyard door, and then looking aside, on the plum tree in the corner of the courtyard, the snow is crystal clear in the sun, and a few sparrows are perched on the branches, chirping and shut, up and down.

Out of nowhere, a gust of wind blew the snow flakes on the branches, and the finches flapped their wings and flew away at once.

"Go down too." Chen Shao picked up the curtain with one hand, and did not look back to the tunnel.

The little guys under the corridor were all sent back, and when they spoke, no one would hear them.

Xing Wei answered behind him, paused for a moment, and finally couldn't help but sneer: "The master is too careful, and even I was exempted from going to the backyard to do errands, for fear that I would hurt someone, so why bother?" ”

He seemed to be laughing, but there was still mockery in his voice: "The master is not so inferior, the master can rest assured." The master would rather only look at a good character like your girl, let alone others? ”

He sighed, with the meaning that the whole world was drunk and I woke up alone, and added another sentence, which is still the words of Fang Cai: "It is really the heart of a villain and the belly of a gentleman." ”

Chen Shao lowered the curtain, lowered his eyes and looked at his fingers, and suddenly smiled: "I know better than you who your master is." He looked back at Xingwei, his eyes were gloomy and cold: "When you die, you will understand what I mean." ”

Xingwei was stunned, then sneered, bowed down, and raised his voice: "Thank you, master, the slave will go down first." ”

Chen Shao was silent, and walked to the bright room with his hands in his hands, and saw that Xing Wei was going away with the curtain, but he still sat on the case.

The wind blew again, the dark fragrance floated, and the plum blossoms bloomed somewhere, but here, the flowers and trees were silent.

Chen Shao looked at the curtain that was swept up by the wind.

The bamboo branches outside the courtyard shook the wind, the sound was clear, silently, far away, like the ups and downs of the water waves, covering a journey of mountains and rivers, a journey of detention, and finally Cen was lonely.
