Chapter 22: Nobles
The room was quiet, and after a while, the expression on Zheng Xu's face relaxed a lot, and he sneered: "I really thought you had something to rely on, but now it seems that it is really nonsense." I don't know who the noble person in your mouth is, but the real noble person was far away from the surrounding area of the city a few days ago. ”
"Dare to ask Miss Hu, is your aunt's house far away from the ring city?" This is not a lie, it is something that can be found by casual investigation
"And the nobleman is surrounded by guards like clouds, how did you get close to a little businesswoman?" Zheng Xu, who wanted to understand, was extremely annoyed, and couldn't believe that he had just been tricked by this cheap girl.
"The noble man I met had only one servant by his side." Hu Jiaren replied.
Zheng Xu's expression was even more contemptuous: "I'll just say, how can there be only one entourage by that nobleman's side." "It seems to be a coincidence.
"But that noble man is extremely young." At this time, Hu Jiaren continued: "The noble man thinks that the road is dull and boring, so he only takes an entourage and pretends to be a rich son to come out to play. ”
Zheng Xu's face changed drastically, that noble man was indeed extremely young, if he said so, it was not impossible. Could it be that this little businesswoman really has such luck?
At this time, Hu Jiaren deliberately said with a shy face: "After getting acquainted with the nobleman, the nobleman revealed his origin and wanted to accept me into the inner courtyard." But I had a marriage contract, so I had to go home and break the marriage first. ”
"No matter why I'm here now." For the sake of his own words, which is more convincing, Hu Jiaren said with a sincere face: "As Mrs. said, I am just a little businesswoman, if I can become the concubine of the prince of your mansion, it will also be a high climb." ”
"But I have a better choice, why should I choose the little son of the guard?"
The last sentence was extremely arrogant, but Zheng Xu believed most of it. Yes, if you can get the blue eyes of that nobleman, who will look at the concubine of the son of the guard?
Thinking that it is the concubine who is unwilling to become his son, this Hu family will take this risky trick.
Zheng Xu is cautious, although he has believed most of them, he still said with a straight face: "Miss Hu is so big-mouthed, but no one can prove these words, unless you can say something about the noble person to win my trust, otherwise you will never want to step out of the gate of the garrison mansion." ”
"The noble man is Prince An." Hu Jiaren said quickly.
"It doesn't count." Zheng Xu frowned: "The nobles travel with great momentum, it is difficult to keep the sensitive ears and eyes, and I heard the wind first, so that you know, and use it to fool people." ”
It's really hard to deceive.
Hu Jiaren sighed slightly in her heart, but raised her sleeves to half-cover her face, hesitated, hesitated, and said for a long time: "Your honor...... Noble man he ...... He ......"
Speaking of nobles, Hu Jiaren remembered the young man he had met twice. has such an excellent temperament and unforgettable appearance, but because of a scar on his face, he looks cold and cold.
Seeing that Zheng Xu's face was impatient, Hu Jiacai said almost inaudibly: "The noble man is slightly flawed." ”
As for how it was slightly flawed, of course she couldn't say. However, she didn't believe Zheng Xu's family, and dared to chase her and ask the nobleman what was flawed. If she chases after her, she will say that the nobles will not lift, and if you have the ability, Zheng Xu will go to the prince of An and ask.
In short, on the way back to the city, she heard the news of merchants and people from the north chatting in the tea house, which became her excellent lie.
Although there has been no news from the Huancheng side, Hu Jiaren thinks that Zheng Xu, as the wife of the garrison, will definitely not know about it.
Seeing Zheng Xu's face solemn, but his eyes were extremely shocked, Hu Jiaren couldn't help blinking. She didn't say a word of truth, why did she really believe it, could it be that Prince An, what kind of flaw is there?
That's a real help.
Zheng Xu's face stiffened, many thoughts flashed in his heart, and finally said: "I think the eldest lady is tired, and now it's late at night, so it's better to stay here and rest." ”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
When they came to the outside of the house, a servant woman stepped forward and said, "Madam, what should we do with the people inside?" ”
"Idiot, what to dispose of." Zheng Xu was flustered, and said angrily when he heard this: "Let people serve well, except that they are not allowed to go out of the yard, there is no trace of neglect!" ”
Zheng Xu walked back quickly, and instructed his henchmen as he walked: "Quickly let someone call the master back and tell him that if he doesn't come back, something will happen to our family!" ”
In the room, Tangerine said scaredly: "What should I do, Miss, we still can't leave." ”
Hu Jiaren slowly moved to the door, listening to Zheng Xu's instructions outside, with a light smile on his face. Although I still can't go, the situation is completely different.
This Zheng Xu was going to drag her to the firewood room to pour cold water on her.
"Don't be afraid, we'll be fine, and we'll be back soon."
Hu Jiaren is eighty percent sure.
Because that Prince An would not come to such a small place as the ring city at all. According to the trader, this area became Prince An's fiefdom, and Prince An was about to build the prince's palace in the most prosperous acropolis. It was also because of this that many merchants went to the Acropolis, hoping to take advantage of the opportunity to make a smile.
In this small place around the city, there is not even a family. When Prince An arrived at the Acropolis, Zheng Shoubei rushed to greet him, and he would not even have a chance to meet him.
Could anyone else run to Prince An and ask if he had ever taken a fancy to a merchant girl?
As for the future, it will be easier to do, Hu Jiaren is not afraid of the garrison mansion at all, seeing that she did not become a person from Prince An's inner courtyard to find fault.
Do you still need to think about the reason? Of course, the nobleman forgot about her little businesswoman.
Even people like Zheng Xu believe it, and Tangerine, a maid who has always put the eldest lady first, believes it even more ten.
Although she follows the eldest lady most of the time, it is not without time to separate. Maybe it's that gap, the eldest lady makes the nobles look at it?
After listening to those words, Tangerine naturally thought that the noble person that the eldest lady was talking about was the young son. She said, the eldest lady has such a temperament, why is it a little strange when she meets that young man.
"Miss, when we go back, let's find a way to break the marriage contract with the young master." Tangerine said seriously: "Anyway, the young master has always been cold and indifferent to the eldest lady, the eldest lady is so good, it is natural that the nobles will like the eldest lady." ”
The orange who closed the door whispered: "It turns out that the young man is Prince An, no wonder he has to look like an ordinary person." ”
It has to be said that, in a way, Tangerine is the only one who has the truth.
Hu Jiaren listened to Tangerine happily and stopped, and when she slowly walked from the door to the table and sat down, she had to interrupt, she had already thought that she would give birth to several children in the future.
