Chapter 123: Meet Su Muxian Again
Shu Shi took it, fixed his eyes, and was suddenly startled: "Deed!" Return the deed! Where did you get these things? ”
"The eldest uncle and the second uncle were clamoring to divide the family, and at our request, we divided the property again, which is the property that we got from the three rooms." Xia Qi said proudly.
"W-How is this possible?" Shu was completely unconvinced.
What kind of temperament the eldest uncle is, she knows too well. That's an iron rooster. If you want to gnaw a piece of meat from his mouth, it is completely impossible in Shu's opinion. What's more, what about an old lady who needs to take care of her calves?
"It's true." Xia Zhengqian said beside him, "If you put them away, our family will have a family." ”
As he spoke, he stood up: "I'll go to the front medical hall first." You prepare dinner, we will eat as soon as we come back, and after dinner, we will start to heal with Sister Jin. ”
"Okay." Hearing her husband's words, Shu Shi believed a little, but looking at the few pieces of paper in her hand, she was still stunned, and her face was full of disbelief.
Seeing his mother like this, Xia Qi told him about today's events.
Before Xia Qi finished speaking, a mother-in-law guarding the door came in and said, "Mrs., young master, girl, Xuanping Houfu sent a mother-in-law to greet our girl." ”
Shu Shi hurriedly wiped away the tears in his eyes and said, "Hurry up, please." ”
After a while, a mother-in-law wearing the costume of Xuanping Houfu was ushered in and saluted Shu's family, Xia Qi, and Xia Jin.
Shu Shi hurriedly stood up and helped her with his own hands, and repeatedly asked her to sit down, but the woman refused to sit down, and said, "My girl sent the old slave here, just to see if Miss Xia is well." ”
As she spoke, her gaze fell on Xia Jin's face, and she continued with a smile: "Now I see Miss Xia sitting here, her face is ruddy, it seems to be good." ”
Xia Jin stood up and smiled: "Thank you Miss Cen for your concern." I'm cured. ”
"Since Miss Xia is well, my girl asks you when you are free. She wants to come and play with you. ”
The newly opened Zhiwei Zhai is on the right track, and there are Dong Yan patrolling on both sides, so there is no need for Xia Jin to keep an eye on it.
Xia Jin nodded: "If you are free, you will be free for these two days." ”
"That's great." The woman was overjoyed.
Seeing Shu's somewhat surprised gaze, she explained embarrassedly: "Mrs. Xia, you don't know, my girl has a very strange temperament. People who don't like the eye. I don't want to pay attention to it at all. I don't want to be perfunctory. Although there are many ladies in this Linjiang City, there is only one girl in my family who is pleasing to the eye. Your girl has been sick for the past few days. She didn't want to find someone to play with, and she was bored at home. ”
As she spoke, she turned to Xia Jin: "Since Miss Xia is free for the past two days, then you can go out with my girl in the afternoon." ”
"Okay." Xia Jin agreed very simply.
Cen Ziman's temperament, she still likes it very much.
Originally, Xia Jin wanted to go out in the afternoon, but he couldn't go down. After sending the woman away, she went back to her yard.
Cen Ziman is probably really bored. Not long after Xia Jin had lunch, she came and brought a bunch of gifts.
"This ...... Miss Cen, you are so polite, but we are uneasy. Shu Shi looked at the exquisite porcelain placed in the hall, as well as a few jade carvings in the small box. I was very uneasy.
Cen Ziman smiled: "Come to the door." Always bring some gifts. These are all things that were given by others, and I didn't buy them on purpose. Usually it is piled up in the storeroom, but it is better to bring it to you and put it on you. ”
Seeing that Shu Shi was about to say more, she waved her hand: "Mrs. Xia doesn't need to say more, it's not a valuable thing, you don't need to be upset, just keep it." ”
Seeing that Cen Ziman didn't care, Shu Shi couldn't refuse. It would be too petty to excuse himself, so he had to thank him repeatedly.
"Let's go and talk in my room." Xia Jin said to Cen Ziman.
"Let's go out. There are many places in this riverside city that I haven't been to yet. Cen Ziman said.
"It's fine." Xia Jin is willing to go out for a walk. Staying in a small courtyard all day, since there is no computer, no TV, and even few books to read, she also feels bored and panicked.
The two said hello to Shu Shi and went out together.
After annoying Dong Fang's temperament a while ago, when Xia Jin wore men's clothes to Zhiwei Zhai, he would bring Dong Fang dressed as a servant; And when she goes out in women's clothes, she will bring calamus. After a few times, it became a rule. So there was no need to say hello, Calamus followed Xia Jin and went out together.
"Where does Miss Cen want to go?" Xia Jin got into Cen Ziman's carriage together and asked.
"I'm not familiar with this place, listen to you."
Although Xia Jin has only been here for a month or two, he is very familiar with Linjiang City.
She thought for a while and said with a smile: "Five miles outside the city, there is a peach forest, and this is the time when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. Why don't we go and see the peach blossoms? ”
"Okay!" Cen Ziman's eyes suddenly lit up, "It seems that I asked you to go out to play with me, but you are right, you really know the place." ”
As she spoke, she looked at Xia Jin curiously: "But I can't figure out why you are so natural with me, unlike other people, or you will desperately flatter, and the words you say can make people get goosebumps; Otherwise, they are nervous and afraid, for fear that they will cause trouble to their families by saying the wrong thing. You don't seem to be afraid of me at all. ”
Xia Jin glanced at her: "You are not a tiger, why should I be afraid of you?" ”
Cen Ziman giggled.
"Desirelessness is rigid, haven't you heard this sentence? Whether you are flattering or nervous and scared, you have a ghost in your heart and always want to get benefits from you. I'm a flat-headed commoner, and I don't want to be promoted or become an official, so what's there to flatter and be nervous? ”
Cen Ziman seemed to think that Xia Jin's expression just now was very funny, and he also followed her example, and glanced at Xia Jin: "You are a woman, so naturally you don't want to be an official." However, don't you have an older brother who is ready to participate in the imperial examination? Why, you don't want your brother to be an official? ”
Xia Jin raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "What?" Flattering, can you make my brother an official? As she spoke, she immediately changed her flattering smile as if her face had changed, and even her voice became sweet and greasy, and she blinked her eyes and pretended to be cute, "Then may I ask the most beautiful girl Cen in the world, is it too late for you to talk to me now?" ”
"Hahaha......" Cen Ziman laughed loudly. The pedestrians on the road were so shocked that they all looked at the carriage.
Xia Jin shrugged helplessly. Cen Ziman, this girl must be very lonely, she can laugh so happily if she is not funny.
Inadvertently, she glanced at the bamboo curtain that had opened a small gap. Just in time to see a horse-drawn carriage passing by. She was very familiar with this carriage, it was the carriage that Luo Qian had taken when he went to Xuanping Houfu for a banquet.
Is Luo Qian sitting in the car? Where is he going?
In Xia Jin's impression, Luo Qian prefers simple things, and on weekdays, he rides in a green cloth tung oil car, although the workmanship materials are better than Xia Zhengqian's new carriage. But drive on the streets east of the city. It was extremely ordinary, and it was a lot worse than the luxurious carriage that had just passed.
Now Luo Qian is riding in a luxury carriage, is this where he is going to the banquet?
However, Xia Jin partnered with Luo Qian to do business. And they all helped each other, in the eyes of outsiders, Luo Sangongzi's friendship with the young master of the Xia family seems to be very good, but Xia Jin thinks that she and Luo Qian are only at the partner stage, and they are not even friends - in ancient times, between men and women, there was no friend. So where did Luo Qian go. What he was going to do, she was only slightly surprised, and had no intention of exploring anything at all.
There are four gates in Linjiang City, and the one they want to go to is the west gate. After a short drive in the east of the city, the carriage moved into the west of the city. The roads in the west of the city are not as wide and clean as those in the east of the city, and there are many people coming and going. The carriage slowed down significantly.
Cen Ziman has no regard for his status as a famous lady. Lift the curtains high and just look out. Admire the market, and more often than not, her eyes are fixed on the snacks of the small vendors. Seeing that she liked or had not eaten snacks, she asked the carriage to stop and sent the little maid Xue'er to get off the car to buy the snacks and share them with Xia Jin.
"Well, it's a pity that I pulled you out before you even saw the gift. Let me tell you, I went to your house today and brought snacks from Zhiwei Zhai. The dim sum is delicious. I like the bowl cake the most, it's translucent, slightly bounced when you bite into it, and there is a fruity aroma. You go back and try it. ”
While eating delicious food, Cen Ziman did not forget to introduce delicious food to Xia Jin.
"Huh?" Xia Jin didn't expect Cen Ziman to give her a snack from Zhiwei Zhai, which was funny and a little moved.
After hesitating for a moment, she put down the bitten bean rice cake in her hand, and said seriously: "Actually, that Zhiwei Zhai was opened by my brother and others. ”
She didn't deliberately hide this matter, otherwise Luo Yu wouldn't know that she was the owner of that store. It's just that the opening days of Zhiwei Zhai are still short, and Xuanping Houfu and other powerful figures have not yet discovered it.
"Your family?" Cen Ziman was so surprised that he almost threw off the bean and rice cake tied with bamboo skewers. She hurriedly caught it with the other one below, and turned her head to blame Xia Jin: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Xia Jin smiled bitterly: "As soon as the store opened, I sent someone to deliver snacks to your house." What, you didn't get it? ”
"Why didn't you eat it? But you didn't say your brother was the owner. ”
"My brother is a scholar, and business is not something to show off after all." Xia Jin said casually.
"That's right." Cen Ziman nodded approvingly, "But I think it's fun to do business, look at this shop opened by your brother, how good it is, it has delicious food, and it can make money." It's a pity......" she had a melancholy look on her face, "I want to do some business too, but I don't know what to do." ”
Xia Jin groaned slightly, raised his eyes and said, "Why don't we open a medicinal restaurant together." ”
Cen Ziman's eyes lit up: "Really? ”
Xia Jin was about to speak, when he suddenly heard the voice of the coachman outside: "Girl, it's my cousin, my cousin is over there." ”
"Oh?" Cen Ziman was interrupted from talking, a little unhappy, but still stretched out his head to look outside, "Where?" ”
"Over there, over there." The coachman said, and simply raised his voice and shouted, "Cousin, cousin." ”
After a while, there were footsteps coming this way, and then a clean and pleasant male voice sounded outside: "Cousin, why are you here?" ”
Hearing this voice, Xia Jin was stunned. Isn't this the voice of Su Muxian? Why is he here, and he has become Cen Ziman's cousin? What could be the reason why he was hunted down that night?
"I went with my friends to see the peach blossoms outside the city." Cen Ziman said, and after speaking, he retracted his head from the window, revealing the space of the window. Then she pointed at Xia Jin and said, "This is Miss Xia, my new friend here." ”
Su Muxian and Xia Jin's gaze met straight in the air.
"Is that you?" Su Muxian's surprised and ecstatic voice raised a few times at once.
"Hello." Xia Jin had to smile at Su Mu.
"You know?" Cen Ziman looked at Su Muxian, and then turned his head to look at Xia Jin, his face full of doubts.
"Once a little beggar was knocked unconscious, and it was Miss Xia who woke him up, and I happened to be there at the time." Su Muxian explained.
Xia Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn't want to be known about her martial arts skills, and she would be known for saving Su Muxian in the hands of the killer organization. Su Muxian was chased and killed, and the trouble was not small, and she dragged the little people with her family, so it was better not to get involved in his troubles.
"Did you find the person you're looking for?" Cen Ziman asked again.
Su Muxian glanced at Xia Jin with his extremely clean and clear eyes, and said with a smile: "I found it, so I'm okay now." Excuse me, can I go with you to see the peach blossoms? (To be continued)
