Chapter 143: Frightened
Tonight is the tenth day of the first lunar month, and there is a crescent moon hanging in the sky, with a few points of starlight. Su Muxian followed Xia Jin more than a dozen steps away, looking at the back in front of him that was as elegant and free as a light hong, and his mood was so complicated that it was difficult to speak.
After a while, the figure in front of him stopped, and Su Muxian was surprised to find that they were stepping on the roof of Luofu.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" Su Muxian's heart lifted.
It's no wonder that he thinks about it too much, it's really that he was tortured to the point that life is worse than death just now, but Xia Jin is always indifferent and cold The scene is always played back in his mind, which makes him shudder. Now that Xia Jin has run to Luofu, he doesn't know what he is going to do that is beyond his knowledge.
Xia Jin ignored him, but leaned down and gently removed the tiles under his feet, and the light in the room suddenly shone out of the hole.
Then, Xia Jin lowered his body and looked into the room.
Su Muxian was aroused by her action.
He turned his head and looked around, and found that this was the place where the three brothers of the Luo family had taken them to visit today, that is, the living place of Luo Yu, the eldest son of Luo.
What do you want to see when Xia Jin comes here?
He finally couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart, and he also followed Xia Jin's example, gently removed the tiles under his feet, and then lowered his body to look down.
I saw that in the room, under the light, Luo Yu was turning back and forth, shouting, "...... It must be Luo Qian, it must be Luo Qian, who else in this house would harm me like this? Who else has such a scheming? He knocked me unconscious, threw me into the house, and gave the woman an aphrodisiac...... also took people to watch, so vicious, it's not too much to cut him with a thousand knives! Mother. I want him to die, I want him to die......"
Next to him, there was a beautiful woman in her thirties, who thought it was Luo Yu's mother-in-law, Aunt Zhang, and she couldn't stop comforting him: "Brother Yu, calm down, you have to calm down......"
"Calm down? How do I calm down? Tomorrow, my father will come to the door to discuss his relatives. The marriage will be consummated in a month. How do you tell me to calm down? Luo Yu roared, "That woman is ugly, vulgar, and extremely stupid. My father is still a military general and can't give me a little help, how can I calm down when I marry such a woman? ”
Aunt Zhang sighed and rubbed her eyebrows. His face was full of exhaustion: "But this is the case, what else can we do?" Let's think about how to calm the anger of Xuanping Houfu and your father. As for women. What's the matter with marrying in? If you are not satisfied, you can take a few more beautiful concubines. ”
It's okay if she doesn't say this, but when she said it, Luo Yu was even more furious, and the green tendons on her head came out: "I didn't give those people's medicine, and I can't blame it." Why did Xuanping Houfu put a basin on my head? You don't have such a pull on the bias frame, right? Is it because I was born to a concubine that I am so angry? I'm not convinced. ”
Hearing him say the word "little concubine", Aunt Zhang's face became very ugly. I know best about my own family affairs. Without any medicine, both mother and son are blind and eat dumplings - they know it. The son now says these words. One is pretending to be a show, hoping that these words can reach Luo Weitao's ears and give himself a room to turn around; The other is to complain that his mother's affairs were not done well, but it didn't hurt Luo Qian, but let Luo Qian hurt him.
Her voice also became colder, and her expression was faint: "There are people from Xuanping Houfu intervening, your father has taken the Yanluo away, and I heard that he has also found the eldest girl of the Li family...... There are some things that I can't hide. ”
Luo Yu's face turned gray. He sat down on a stool to the side, his eyes losing their sparkle.
"You agree to the marriage first. has become the son-in-law of the Li family, and Mrs. Xuanping and your father will not deal with you too much......" Aunt Zhang was still persuading bitterly.
Su Muxian was waiting to listen again, but he saw that Xia Jin over there had straightened up and jumped to the other side, he thought that Xia Jin was leaving, so he didn't care about putting the tiles back, so he hurriedly followed. However, as soon as he walked a few steps, he saw Xia Jin stop, and the cat was doing something on the eaves.
Su Muxian relaxed his steps, slowly walked to Xia Jin's side, and saw someone walking over with a lantern, and saw that there were two little maids, one carrying a lantern, and the other holding a tray in his hand, and the dishes in the tray were still steaming.
The two gradually got closer, and they walked past the soles of Xia Jin's feet, Xia Jin suddenly turned over and hung upside down under the eaves, and then heard a "coo-dong" sound, and a movement sounded next to him. While the two maids turned their heads to look, Xia Jin put the things in her hand into the steaming bowl, and she herself turned over to the roof.
This series of actions happened in an instant, and when Su Muxian blinked and came back to his senses, the two maids had already comforted each other and walked away with "It's okay" and "Maybe it's a wild cat".
Xia Jin still ignored Su Muxian, and crossed him back to the entrance of the cave where the tiles had been drawn. Su Muxian also hurried back and looked down.
I saw that the two maids had already entered the house, walked up to Aunt Zhang with a tray, and said, "Auntie, the soup you ordered has been boiled." ”
"Hmm." Aunt Zhang responded, took the bowl of soup with her own hands, stirred it with a spoon, handed it to Luo Yu, and said softly: "Okay, don't be angry, it's not worth it to be angry." You didn't eat dinner either, so let's have some soup. I had someone boil it in the morning and drink it while it was hot. ”
Luo Yu is a big boy, and it is the time when he can eat the most. I didn't eat at night, and I was hungry at this time. Smelling the aroma emanating from the soup, he couldn't stand it, so he took the soup and drank it three times and two times.
Su Muxian was guessing what Xia Jin had put in this bowl of soup just now, and he felt a pain in his head, as if someone was pulling his hair, and when he turned his head, it was Xia Jin who was already standing by his side.
"Gone." Xia Jin said inaudibly, and when he saw Su Muxian get up, he put the tile he pulled out back in its original place, turned around and ran out.
When he got to the street outside, Su Muxian hurried a few steps, caught up with Xia Jin, and couldn't help asking, "What medicine did you give him?" ”
Xia Jin turned his head, glanced at him, and said lightly: "Don't lift it." ”
Su Mu was stunned for a moment, didn't understand what these two words meant, and asked, "Don't lift it?" What not to mention? ”
Xia Jin glanced at him in surprise, and saw that his face was full of confusion, and he really didn't understand, so he had to explain again: "Cut off children and grandchildren." ”
Su Muxian finally reacted, and his mouth couldn't help but open into an "O" shape.
"You, you ......" he pointed at Xia Jin, not knowing what to say.
Xia Jin suddenly stepped forward, grabbed him by the collar, his cold hand slowly crossed his neck, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, like a demon incarnation in the faint and cold moonlight.
"If you dare to tell what you saw tonight, I don't mind if you end up with Luo Yu." Her voice was as cold as her fingers.
"No, it won't ......" Su Muxian only felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet.
Xia Jin pushed him away and went straight in the direction of the Xia family's house.
Su Mu stood there idly for a long time before returning to Xuanping Houfu.
The next day was supposed to be the day when Dong Yan followed the housekeeper Yu to the provincial mansion to buy a cook, but such a big thing happened in Luofu yesterday, and Xia Jin guessed that the housekeeper Yu would definitely not be able to leave. But she didn't want that as soon as the sky was bright, as soon as she got up, Lu Liang came to report, saying that Steward Yu had sent someone to inform Xia Jin that they were leaving.
Xia Jin hurriedly changed into men's clothes and took Dong Fang out, and saw that Dong Yan had arrived, and was talking to Steward Yu not far from Luofu.
"Steward Yu, if you don't have time, you can send someone else later, there is no need to delay your business for us." She walked over and said.
When Steward Yu saw Xia Jin coming, he hurriedly gave a salute and said with a smile: "It's okay." My son-in-law said that nothing is as important as Mr. Xia's business. ”
"......" Xia Jin suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, raised his hand and saluted back, "In this case, then I won't be polite to you." I'll leave it all up to you today. ”
Turning her head, she instructed Dong Yan a few more words.
Seeing that the hour was not early, Dong Yan and Steward Yu each got on their horses and galloped away in the misty morning fog with the two courtyards of Luofu.
Xia Jin turned his head and glanced at the gate of Luofu, and was about to turn around, but suddenly saw a tall figure standing there. Her gaze collided with Luo Qian's gaze in the air.
She paused at her feet, hesitating whether to step forward to say hello, and saw Luo Qian retract his gaze and turn around and enter Luo's mansion.
She touched the bridge of her nose, turned her head to Dong Fang and said, "Let's go, go back." ”
That day, Xia Jin didn't go out. But in the afternoon, Cen Ziman came, and as soon as he entered the door, he said fiercely to Xia Jin: "That pair of mother and son, it's really hateful." If it weren't for you, I'd have taken their word. ”
"What the hell is going on, what did you find out?" Xia Jin waved his hand to let the iris out, and asked.
"You don't know, the slut surnamed Zhang has long told the eldest girl of the Li family that he wants to marry her as his second daughter-in-law. So Miss Li stupidly helped her, thinking that she was just letting her sister look foreign, and by the way, she pitted Miss Zhu, but she almost carried the black pot......"
It turned out that Aunt Zhang's plan was to use Li Yujuan's hand to drug Cen Ziman, and then intercept Xia Jin halfway, send her a task to separate her, and let Cen Ziman and Luo Yu have something to do. As a result, Xia Jin and Luo Qian intervened, and things completely fell upside down.
"Now, what are you going to do with them?" Xia Jin is most concerned about this.
"If you dare to beat my idea, how can my grandmother let it go so easily?" Cen Ziman snorted coldly, "Now that she's in Luo's Mansion, it just depends on what kind of attitude Lord Luo has." However, one thing is certain, no matter how well Luo Yu's article is done, Jinshi will not think about it. ”
Xia Jin raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
The eldest son of the Luo family, his heart is so high that he has nothing to say, he is very conceited in the imperial examination, and he has always regarded Jinshi as his bag. Now that the future is hopeless, it makes him even more uncomfortable than killing him. (To be continued)
