Chapter 16 - To each his own heart
Shen Muqing only felt that his knees were weak.
And the three men surrounding the young man in red were happy.
They were worried that they couldn't find the bottom of the stairs, and they didn't think that there would be someone to move the ladder immediately. A few people were busy setting up, and the two of them couldn't move and were about to leave.
"What? I want to go! The young man in red sneered disdainfully, "I have to leave something behind...... Otherwise, I'm just afraid that the Zhen'an Mansion will not dare to admit this account! ”
A few people didn't say they were talking, they didn't even dare to raise their heads, and left in a hurry like lost dogs.
The onlookers saw that there was no excitement to see, some were talking, some were laughing, and some were driving the carriage away, like a good show dispersed, and there was a lot of noise.
Shen Muqing looked at the backs of those people who were gradually moving away, and in a hurry, he grabbed the sleeves of the young man in red and stood up.
The delicate Tianshui Bi couldn't withstand such a force, and even made a slight cracking sound.
The young man in red turned his head and glared at her, and said in a low voice, "What are you smoking?" ”
The young man's scolding and the stinging pain under his feet made Shen Muqing sober up.
yes, what kind of horn madness?
Even if something happens, what's the use of rushing over by yourself now......
The expression on Shen Muqing's face became solemn, and a confident and calm demeanor gradually emerged between his eyebrows, like a flower that condensed time, from budding to blooming in an instant.
In terms of her unbelievable experience, this is just a nature revealed under the agitation and isolation, but in the eyes of the young man in red, it has a completely different meaning.
He suddenly remembered when he was a child. Playing in the old man's house, the old man once pointed to the statue of the purple purlin mutton fat jade white-clothed mother on the Bogu shelf and proudly told him: "This is what I bought from a guest in Liaodong in the early years. At that time, everyone thought I was crazy and spent five hundred taels of snowflake silver to buy a stone, but when I asked the master to peel out this piece of seed jade, everyone was dumbfounded...... You have to remember that whether you look at things or people, you can't just look at the surface, you have to see what is hidden under the surface, and this is the most fundamental thing. Only by mastering this skill can you be invincible......"
At that time, he was just an ignorant age, and he admired the old man for his vision and courage. Later, as he grew up, a lot of things happened at home, and he forgot about it. Now, when he saw this big-footed girl, he suddenly remembered it again, and he understood the meaning of this sentence a little, and he also knew a little bit why he felt that this girl was different from everyone else.
Uncompromising in the face of danger.,Know how to humorously laugh at yourself when you encounter vicious attacks.,Calm and calm when the future is unknown.,There's no such timidity and cowardice as girls usually have.。 It's like a seed jade stripped of its camouflage, gradually revealing a lustrous luster and low-key beauty.
He couldn't help but look at the girl in front of him seriously.
The slap is a snow-white melon seed face, and it looks very childish. The willow-like eyebrows, the clear apricot eyes like water, and the straight nose bridge all make people feel that this girl must be very smart, and the most beautiful is the lips, like a small water chestnut, raising a perfect arc and slightly warped, pink, tender, and tender, making people want to bite on it......
The thought flashed, and suddenly something welled up in his heart.
It's hot, soft, itchy, messy, it makes people feel very comfortable, and it feels uncomfortable to scratch their ears and cheeks and don't know what to do......
The young man in red turned his face to the side a little bewildered, and "coughed" softly, as if he could cough out all these feelings in his heart. But he said in his heart: Why didn't you see it so good just now...... But the chin is too pointed, it must be a blessing, and there is no foot wrapping...... We don't have a woman in our family who doesn't bind her feet......"
Shen Muqing didn't pay attention to this, because she saw the sixteenth master.
The sixteenth master covered his face with a scarf, and limped to the crossroads with Xing'er's support, and the group of men immediately surrounded him, and they all made the appearance of supporting the sixteenth master. The sixteenth master shook his head gently, still supported by Xing'er, and said something to those people. At this moment, I followed a few men one after another, all of them were the subordinates of the Sixteenth Master, all of them had blue noses and swollen faces, and two people seemed to be unable to walk anymore, and they were being held by their companions, and they looked very embarrassed, and they knew at a glance that they had suffered a big loss.
The young man in red felt the change in the atmosphere and looked at Shen Muqing's gaze.
As if someone had said something, the group of people all looked towards Shen Muqing.
Everyone's eyes met.
The young man in red straightened his spine, his face showed disdain again, his hands clasped in his arms, and he glared back at them coldly.
It was too far away to see the expression of the sixteenth master clearly, so I saw him turn his head and lead people towards the way back to the city.
Seeing this, the young man in red hesitated for a moment, pulled Shen Muqing under the tree on the side of the road, and said, "There are no women...... Are you going back to the temple at this time, or going back to the city......" After speaking, without waiting for Shen Muqing to answer, he said, "Let's go back to the city...... You were there to report the news, but now as soon as the group of people left, you went back to the temple, and when others saw it, they thought you were scared so they hid yourself......" He said, and looked at her again, "You go back like this, no one can say that you didn't do your best......"
Shen Muqing knew what the young man in red meant. Although he misunderstood that he was a servant, she was still grateful for this kind of intention for her.
She really wanted to go back to the temple, wanting to know what happened in the temple and why the Sixteenth Master and his gang left. But he didn't dare to go back, for fear of going out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den. Of course, the best thing to do is for the boy to accompany her back to the temple. But firstly, I don't know the details of this young man, and secondly, this young man seems to be flying and domineering, but he is actually clever and fickle. Judging from this young man's behavior, he is not a little chivalrous, it is all based on his preferences. One is not good, but I am afraid that if you want him to go east, he will go west...... Where did Shen Muqing dare to ask him to accompany her back to the temple.
She couldn't help but smile wryly.
It's better to wait here, and wait for your own people to come back.
The most important thing now is to think about how to deal with the aftermath.
Shen Zhen and Mr. Min also said that day when they were in Jiusizhai, that is, the queen mother, and now they are afraid of the only king with a different surname in the Great Zhou Dynasty, let alone others. Although the family members of the Zhen'an Mansion were disrespectful to them, they escaped, and the fuse of these things was caused by the beauty of the splendid beauty, Shen Zhen knew, would he have to deal with the Zhen'an Mansion because of this...... Shen Muqing, who has seen too much of the handmaid as an object, really doesn't have this certainty...... Perhaps, Shen Zhen will not only not turn his face with the Zhen'an Mansion for his own plan, but will also hand over Jinxiu as a sacrifice to give the Zhen'an King an explanation...... There is also Liu's mother, who left her post to participate in the incense party without permission, and the carelessness of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau was lost...... In the eyes of those who have a heart, I am afraid that it is all sin. All of these have to be discussed with a "statement...... Although he would not provoke the dispute between the Shen and Yuan families out of nothing, he could not let his father put all the blame on these people......
After making up his mind, Shen Muqing decided to send the red-clothed young man first.
She curtsied at the young man in red: "Thank you young master for saving me this time!" I haven't asked the young master for his name. The head of the family also came to the door to thank him. ”
The young man in red has always been good at observing, and seeing that she has revealed a faint detachment when she speaks, he thinks that she may not have heard her words in her heart. Not only did I not hear it in my heart, but I was afraid that it would go the other way, so I asked for his name and said that I would reward him. It's just that she is a maidservant, and it is good not to be punished when she goes back, and the head of the family comes to thank her for coming to the door for her...... I'm afraid it's a fool's dream!
He frowned, snorted softly, and sneered, "What a heartless ...... Forget it, I'll be a good person to the end, and I'll send you back to the temple! ”
Shen Muqing didn't expect to get such an answer that was completely out of common sense, and in addition to being surprised, he also strengthened his determination not to be with this young man in red anymore. But before she could speak, Pang Debao suddenly came over and interjected with a smile: "Little sister, what our young master said is true." You go alone like this, and you don't know what happened in the temple, saying that the head of the house blames you, but I'm afraid you can't bear it...... Although we can't help much, we can at least testify for the little sister! ”
Pang Debao is shrewd, capable, and resourceful, and everything has a reason along the way...... These words may not be meaningless!
His kindness of a 180-degree turn couldn't help but make Shen Muqing vigilant, and said with a smile: "The young master has helped me a lot, how can I trouble again!" ”
Pang Debao didn't wait for the young man in red to answer, and said repeatedly: "No trouble, no trouble...... said, and glanced at the young man in red with a pleading gaze.
The young man glanced at Pang Debao with a smile, but there was no squeak in a very rare way, as if he completely agreed with Pang Debao's statement.
Shen Muqing saw the strange interaction between the two people, and secretly complained, so he had to hold them with words: "Thank you Young Master and Steward Pang." I'm afraid that the sixteenth master will not give up and ask people to turn back, or suffer a loss and shout that the people from the government are coming, and they will affect the two ......."
Pang Debao was stunned when he heard this, and a trace of hesitation flashed between his expressions.
Shen Muqing saw it clearly, knew it in his heart, and continued: "The rotten ship still has three catties of nails. Although our Shen family is not in the class meeting of King An, if we really care about it, we are not afraid to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate with them to theorize......"
Pang Debao showed a contemplative expression on his face, but the young man in red was very impatient: "Why do you talk so much, ......" said, shook his hand, and strode forward.
