Chapter 24: Meet Cheng Xian Again
Since the last time he was punished by Xi Ningyu using the trap in the forest with medicinal powder. After Cheng Xian and those unlucky family members were rescued back to Cheng Mansion, they were miserable. Let's not talk about the few family members who finally shed a layer of skin because of the itchy powder, Shan Cheng Xian's body was surrounded by dogs for almost half a month because of Xi Ningyu's medicinal powder, which made Cheng Xian almost crazy. A peculiar smell that only dogs can smell not only attracts stray dogs near Cheng Mansion, but even Cheng Mansion's own three fierce dogs are blocked at the door of Cheng Xian's house every day and can't be dragged away.
Finally, after the stray dogs gathered at the gate of Cheng's mansion dispersed, Cheng Xian, who had waited for two days, took Jia Zhong and others to probe his brain to come out to breathe.
"Young master, let's be careful." Jia Zhong thought in his heart, don't be surrounded by a group of dogs before he has walked a few steps. Thinking of the recent scene at the gate of the mansion, Jia Zhong felt chills all over his body.
"Humph! The girl of the Xi family. Jia Zhong, did you ask someone to find? Cheng Xian saw that Jia Zhong was thinking about something behind him in a daze, and suddenly became a little impatient, and asked sharply.
"Hmm. The people who sent it out haven't come back yet, but it's estimated that it's only been a matter of the next two days. Jia Zhong was thinking about the unbearable picture in his heart, and was coldly asked by Cheng Xian, and replied with a shaking.
"That's good, this time I want that girl from the Xi family to know what will happen if I offend Young Master Ben." Cheng Xian heard that Jia Zhong was so sure, and he temporarily let go of the unhappiness in his heart. It's just that his complexion hasn't improved much, especially for being embarrassed by Xi Ningyu's calculations several times and making him embarrassed recently, not to mention that he even has to enter and exit the door so carefully.
"Yes, the young master will not make any more mistakes this time. Those people have a lot of work under their hands! ”
"Humph! That's good, let's go. I haven't been out for a long time, so today I will take you to Hongxiang Building!! ”
Cheng Xian led a group of crooked melons and cracked dates to swagger through the market, regardless of the rampage of passers-by around him. It caused a group of civilians and small business vendors to frown, but no one dared to speak out because of the usual prestige!!
Xi Ningyu, who left after discussing the cooperation from Renxin Hall, walked on the street with two girls, Yu'er and Toad, and approached some stalls selling trinkets from time to time to pick and choose some rare things.
"Miss, you see that this hairpin flower is very good, gilded with jade, carved with two cloud flowers." Yu'er picked up a gilded hairpin and looked at Xi Ningyu's head.
"That's not good, Mademoiselle has always liked simpler things." Toad looked at the gilded hairpin in Yu'er's hand and shook his head and said.
"But I think this one is pretty good! What do you say, miss? Yu'er didn't give up her choice because of Toad'er's words, and continued to try to recommend the hairpin in Xi Ningyu's hand.
"If you like it, buy it and keep it for yourself." Xi Ningyu glanced at the fish and smiled.
"Me? But Miss, I'm only eleven years old, and I'm not old yet! ”
"I said Sister Yu'er, is it just time for our young lady? Let's just come to see some gadgets, and I don't know what you are doing with the young lady with that hairpin. Toad looked at the fish with a smile and said.
"Don't worry, buy it first. Keep it until we have a fish, and after finding a home for her, keep it as a dowry. Xi Ningyu also pointed to the fish's nose and laughed.
Suddenly, the fish's face was red and red by what the two said, and she stomped her little feet with a twist.
"Sister Toad, don't laugh at me. In terms of age, you are one year older than our young lady, I think this gilded hairpin is afraid that it will not be my turn, but I have to make a dowry for you first!! The fish was not as sluggish as usual at this time, and after saying a word, the toad immediately chased after the fish, and the two of them chased and ran on the street.
"Hole Tom~~Hey, hey!!"
"Stinky, you're looking at it."
The fish and toad, who were chasing and playing with each other, saw that they had collided with someone, and dodged and ran back to Xi Ningyu before turning to look at the man who was hit.
"Yo! How is he, but he is really unlucky, and he threw away this dress when he went back!! Yu'er immediately rolled her eyes when she saw the man in front of her, and said with extreme impatience and disgust.
The toad looked at the fish as if puzzled, and her eyes were full of questions.
"This is the one I told you before, and he's suspicious."
"Oh~~~ It turned out to be him!" Toad suddenly said.
Xi Ningyu stood in place and looked at Cheng Xian. He neither spoke, nor did he intend to turn away.
"Heh, what a coincidence. Miss Xi hasn't seen her for a long time, how are you doing lately? Cheng Xian also found out at this time that the person who bumped into him happened to be Xi Ningyu and his party who he had been thinking about, but now there is another toad next to Xi Ningyu.
"It's a coincidence, today's girl, I happened to bring a lot of new configuration of medicinal powder. I wonder if Young Master Cheng is interested in trying the effects of these medicinal powders again? Xi Ningyu looked at Cheng Xian's hypocritical face and the same 'what a coincidence' opening statement, and said with a blank look.
"......" As soon as Jia Zhong heard Xi Ningyu's words, he remembered the fate of being tortured by the itchy powder before, and the hairs on his body stood up.
"Ahem, Miss Xi! Young Master Ben didn't offend you today, but your girl bumped into Young Master Ben, you ......"
"What? Could it be that because I was hit by my girl, Cheng Shao wanted to invite my girl to enjoy the scenery today? Before Cheng Xian finished speaking, Xi Ningyu stared at him coldly and grabbed Bai Dao.
“…… There are some good scenery to enjoy in this town, Miss Xi laughed. Cheng Xian replied with a smile and arched his hand.
"I heard that a few days ago, there was a good scene in front of your mansion!" Xi Ningyu hooked the corners of her mouth and looked at Cheng Xianyan with a smile.
A few days ago, because of Xi Ningyu's medicinal powder, Cheng Mansion was surrounded by nearly 100 stray dogs. It is difficult for even the family in the house to go out to buy, and the barking of dogs outside the house gate every day is continuous, but it has become a wonder of this town for a while.
Cheng Xian felt that he couldn't talk to Xi Ningyu, whether it was in the mountains and forests before or on the street now.
Every time, Xi Ningyu used words to block himself to death, and he poked at his sore spot and couldn't fight back.
"Young master, the Yang family is still waiting in the 'Hongxiang Building', it's not good to go late. Why don't you make small talk with Miss Xi another day? Jia Zhong saw that his master was choked by Xi Ningyu's words, and his face turned blue and white, and at this time, he had no means to turn his face and rectify Xi Ningyu. Therefore, he was clever and said that the time to go to the appointment was almost up. I plan to give a step for Cheng Xian to step down, so that I can get rid of this woman who makes my liver tremble when I look at it as soon as possible.
"Oh, if you don't say it, Ben Shao is almost delayed. In this case, Miss Xi, we still have something to do, so let's take a step ahead and say goodbye! Cheng Xian didn't wait for Xi Ningyu to speak, turned around and left. For fear of being choked by Xi Ningyu if he left a little late, Cheng Xian was really a little afraid at this time, Xi Ningyu spoke!
Xi Ningyu didn't plan to say anything to hit Cheng Xian. But the toad next to him answered: "Cheng Gongzi, remember to look behind yourself, don't bring anything extra to other people's Xianglou, it's not good if the tired guests can't get in and out." ”
Cheng Xian, who heard this, suddenly had the urge to ask the sky with speechless eyes. I was very angry and even had no choice but to step forward and tear up the women in front of me, but the painful memory that had been left in the hearts of Cheng Xian and others made Cheng Xian have to swallow the evil breath in front of him.
After Cheng Xian and the others left, Xi Ningyu turned around for a while and returned to the Xi family's old mansion.
On the second day, he packed up and took the fish to Mufu. As soon as they arrived outside the gate of Mu Mansion, they saw Mu Hui and his wife standing outside the door waiting. Xi Ningyu hurriedly sped up and walked a few steps to greet Mu Hui and Yun Niang.
"So early in the morning, are the third brother and sister-in-law waiting for me?" Xi Ningyu got up and asked after seeing the salute.
"I've seen Third Young Master Mu and his wife greet each other!" The fish followed closely and Xi Ningyu was also blessed.
"Well, get up!" Mu Hui said with a smile to this confused fish.
"Fish girl, I haven't seen you in a daze today, it seems that you slept well last night?" Yun Niang nodded at the fish's eyebrows and said.
The fish stuck out her tongue, grinned and didn't say anything, and retreated behind Xi Ningyu.
"I haven't seen my sister come to play for a few days, and I miss people. Anyway, there is nothing to do in the room, and I have asked my mother for good morning in the morning, and I will wait for you! Yun Niang stepped forward and grabbed Xi Ningyu's hand and said.
"Yun Niang, it's still a little cold outside in the morning, let's take the fourth sister to see my mother first. I just said that I was going to wait for the four sisters to have breakfast together!! Mu Hui said at this time, and led the way to the back hall.
"It's okay, my sister will go with me and your third brother to see my mother first, and my mother will wait for us to have breakfast." The two of them followed Mu Hui into the house together, followed by the fish, and the personal maid beside Yun Niang.
When everyone entered the main house of the courtyard where the An couple were, they saw that oil cakes, a few plain side dishes and millet porridge in a bowl had already been arranged. In addition to Mu Hui's mother An Shi, even the old uncle Mu Zhu, who is rarely seen on weekdays, is also here today. Seeing this, Xi Ningyu hurriedly gave Mu Zhu a salute first.
"Uncle Mu, I have a chance to salute you today. It's hard to see you on weekdays, but I don't like Ning Yu to come to disturb me, so I avoid it? Xi Ningyu relied on his young age and was not yet in time, so it was okay to speak appropriately and presumptuously.
"Hey~~ Look at this clever girl, but she should be beaten." When An Shi heard this, before his husband Mu Zhu could speak, he laughed and scolded first.
"Hahaha~~~ Okay, you're a feather girl!! It's got it, but it's not the old man's. However, you have not met you several times, but it is not that the old man intends to hide from you. I really go to visit friends a lot today, so it's hard to meet you and talk a lot. Don't be careful, come and have breakfast quickly, I'm afraid it will be cold if you wait any longer. "Uncle Mu Zhu has a bold and unrestrained personality, and after hearing what Xi Ningyu said, not only did he not feel surprised, but felt that Xi Ningyu was naughty and elf, and he liked Xi Ningyu's character very much.
