Wang's mansion is quite prestigious in Jiangning, and now he is related to the Rong family, and his family is even more prominent.

On the first day of the banquet, there was a lot of traffic outside the mansion, and there was an endless stream of guests.

Stepping into the courtyard, An Rui looked around, the newly built Western-style garden and the gray tile and red brick ancient attic are incompatible.

Sun Binhao called his wife to accompany him, and the three of them entered, because the male and female guests were invited separately, Mrs. Sun accompanied An Rui to the inner courtyard, and saw that the yard was planted with a few thin sycamores, and the withered yellow leaves hung on the branches, swaying in the wind.

A cobblestone path passed under the trees, and An Rui followed Mrs. Sun, skirting the rockery along the path, only to hear the laughter and laughter getting heavier and heavier.

Stepping on the steps and stepping into the cloister, although it is early winter, the courtyard is full of flowers.

In the flower hall, there are many female guests, all of whom are not rich or noble, wives and ladies, dressed gorgeously, all kinds of clothes, competing for beauty. A small stage was temporarily set up in front of the hall, and the horns were babbling and singing, and the ladies and ladies in the audience watched the play, watched the play, talked and laughed, and were sandwiched in the sound of silk and bamboo on the stage.

Scanning the surroundings, although An Rui was born in a wealthy family and had experienced a lot of banquets, she only felt extravagant about all this in front of her.

Mrs. Sun saw An Rui looking at the stage, and said in a low voice: "The young overseer loves to watch dramas the most, and today the Wang family invited the old martial artist Xie Yucheng to come to the finale, and also ordered his favorite "Dingjun Mountain", he will come over later." ”

Absent-mindedly, An Rui looked at it and said two sentences.

"Cousin-in-law, are you late?"

Hearing the prestige, An Rui saw three or four wives coming, she looked at the person in charge, and saw a bright yellow peony cheongsam, her hair coiled up, and a smile and cheeks revealed the squeamishness of everyone's ladies.

After Mrs. Sun's introduction, An Rui learned that the person who came was the second young grandmother of the Wang family, only to hear her call Mrs. Sun "cousin" again, and said with a smile: "Yo, whose young lady is this, so handsome!" ”

"Second young grandmother is good." An Rui called out generously, and introduced herself again: "My name is An Rui." ”

The second young grandmother saw that she was humble and generous, and she liked it in her heart, and said with a smile: "Miss An is too polite." ”

Everyone exchanged a few more greetings, and the second young grandmother beckoned Mrs. Sun and An Rui to play cards.

Mrs. Sun knew the purpose of An Rui's trip, helped to prevaricate, and walked to the flower hall with them with a smile.

The drum beaten, An Rui looked back at the stage, "Dingjun Mountain" had already started, she did not find any traces of male guests in the audience, she was worried, wouldn't he come?

Seeing that the banquet was about to start, An Rui didn't hear the news of the young overseer's arrival, and walked out of the flower hall in disappointment, and at the corner, her eyes were attracted by a familiar figure, Fu Juncheng? I wondered, and muttered: Why is he here too?

She quietly followed, wanting to find out.

After passing through several courtyard gates, An Rui followed all the way and entered an arch, which was a very quiet attic, and a few plum blossoms were planted in front of the hall, and at this time there were already a few sprouts extracted.

walked into the house, went up to the second floor, and at the corner, Fu Juncheng suddenly turned around.

At the last moment, An Rui only felt that someone was dragging her arm, and she was so frightened that she exclaimed, and her center of gravity tilted.

The world was already spinning, and she was thrown down on the sofa by someone after dodging into the house, and the warm air was in her ears, crispy and itchy.

Listening quietly, An Rui suddenly heard the sound of leather shoes walking from far and near, if it was discovered by Fu Juncheng? Thinking of this, she had palpitations.

Raise your eyes, is it him? An Rui twisted her head, but the faint aroma of tobacco on his body penetrated the tip of his nose. She struggled to her feet, he held her down with one hand, brushed her messy hair with the other, and the corners of her lips fluttered slightly.

The cheeks were getting closer and closer, An Rui saw his thick brows clearly, those eyes were tender, his breath caressed her face, warm, An Rui found that the posture of the two people was very ambiguous, embarrassed, couldn't help but blush, stretched out his hand to push him away, and hurriedly got up and stayed away.

"Stalking people, but not knowing how to protect themselves, Miss An, I made a mistake!"

"Why are you here?"

The two spoke in unison, An Rui lowered her head shyly, stroked her sideburns, and said, "I...... Who said I'm stalking someone, me, I just want to see ......" she said in a voice like a mosquito.

"That guy wasn't the young overseer you're looking for!" Rong Chu leaned on the sofa and looked An Rui up and down, as if he had seen through her thoughts, and said in a muffled voice: "You are here to intercede for your cousin?" ”

An Rui bowed her head and said nothing.

"Do you know how deep and muddy the water is in Jiangning Mansion? Your cousin's matter, I inquired, smuggling of prohibited substances, human and material evidence gathered, no quibble, even if you persuaded the Young Overseer, but there are so many pairs of eyes staring, the law is not merciful, do you think the Young Overseer will be stupid enough to go back on his word and let Mr. Bai go? Rong Chu looked at her, the softness in his eyes moved his heart, and he said coldly: "What's more, I don't want you to be in it." ”

"Do you want me to die without saving me?" An Rui asked sharply.

Hearing this, Rong Chu stood up 'poof', and the two stood facing each other, looking at each other.
