Tian He understood that he was trying to avoid suspicion, and he was anxious and hadn't said a few more words to him, so he couldn't help but stop him and said, "Sir, slow down, the little girl still has something to ask for advice." ”

Zhao Fengnian was about to get up, and when he heard her say this, he had to sit down again and ask, "Miss doesn't have to be polite, please say something about it." ”

Tian He nervously twisted the handkerchief in his hand, and it took a long time to finally calm down his heartbeat, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Gaocai, the two poems made during the Shangyuan Festival really made the little woman admire. ”

Zhao Fengnian frowned when he heard the poems, "Miss Tian misunderstood, the two poems on the Shangyuan Festival were not done in Xia, but when I traveled in the past, I heard it by chance, and some time ago, I had already explained it in detail with Master Tian, so I'm afraid I will disappoint Miss." ”

He thought that if he said it so clearly, Tian He would be disappointed, and he would no longer be entangled in poetry, but unfortunately he really underestimated the woman's imagination.

So, she persevered, and asked, "It's good to get the work during the trip, and I hope that Mr. will give the little girl two more songs." ”

Zhao Fengnian saw that her eyes were full of anticipation, her face was flushed, and as soon as she touched her gaze, she immediately lowered her head in a shy manner, and suddenly felt very unhappy in her heart, and vaguely felt that this woman didn't just want to ask for poems so simple, so she refused coldly again, "I only heard those two poems that day, and there were no others." ”

Tian He's face darkened instantly, and he opened his mouth to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked by grievances and couldn't make a sound, and his eyes slowly turned red, Tian Qian was a little annoyed when she saw her sister being rejected three times and twice, so she said, "Mr. Zhao, my sister is kind and begging, why are you so stingy, but two poems are not gold and silver mountains?" ”

Zhao Fengnian glanced at her lightly, "Then ask Miss Tian to move a mountain of gold and silver out, and she has two hundred masters to present it. ”

Zhao Fengnian didn't leave any affection, and went back to the house with a flick of his sleeves, so angry that Tian Qian'er's face turned red, and she was about to scold when she opened her mouth, but she was stopped by Tian He, "Second sister, second sister, don't say it, Mr. doesn't like poetry to circulate, let's not make it difficult for others." ”

"What kind of poem, it's just a few sentences of innocent moaning, and I really think of myself as a master..."

"Second sister!" Hearing that his sister was becoming more and more rude, Tian He was also anxious, for fear of spreading to the house, "Second sister, don't be rude, otherwise Mr. said that he would know with his father, and we would never be able to come out in the future." ”

Tian Qian sat down indignantly, and as soon as she took the tea into her mouth, she spit it it out and scolded, "What kind of broken tea is this, it is actually served to entertain guests!" ”

Aunt Yun is not blind, she stood aside for a long time but she saw it very clearly, the sisters who came to the door said that it was a good thing to visit, and it was not good, but it seemed that they were here to find fault, and the eldest lady saw Mr. Zhao with a charming look in her eyes, and she couldn't wait to eat Mr. Zhao's stomach, the second lady is purely impolite, and there are no rules for speaking and acting politely, how did the Tian family raise their daughters, such a temperament, and let it out, and they are not afraid of being embarrassed.

She muttered in her heart, and when she heard the second young lady complaining, she smiled and said, "In the village and wilderness, there is only coarse tea to entertain guests, and the two young ladies are neglected." ”

Tian Qian'er glanced at her, and splashed the leftover tea in the cup on the ground, without answering half a word, Aunt Yun was a little embarrassed, Tian He hurriedly smiled, "This aunt, don't be polite, the countryside naturally has the benefits of the countryside, and when I came, I felt that my vision was much broader, unlike the courtyards in the city, which were crowded and noisy." ”

When Aunt Yun heard her praise the village, she was a little more happy in her heart, and the two slowly started talking.

Besides, Ruixue was on the dock, busy chopping vegetables, steaming steamed buns, preparing lunch, and wrapping two baskets of steamed buns by the way. A few days ago, the steamed fragrant buns, not only captured the hearts of everyone in the Peishui Gang, but also coveted a group of passers-by, shop managers, coachmen, small servants, etc., on the dock, someone came to the door to buy steamed buns, she and Zhang's sister-in-law tried to sell for a few days, and they could sell sixty or seventy every day, she set four cents a piece, but also made half of the profits, which was a big addition to the shop.

Sister-in-law Zhang has been studying for the past few days, but she has done a good job, and under joy, she took over all the stuffing, rolling skins and other tasks today, and shouted to come out of the steamer buns independently, and Rui Xue followed her wishes.

As soon as a cage of big buns came out of the pot, Wangcai came to the door, his round head and round brain, Rui Xue still had some impressions, and then remembered his master, the mysterious man in red, couldn't help frowning.

Wangcai smiled and stepped forward to greet Rui Xue, then took out the envelope from his arms, held it in both hands, and said with a smile, "Boss, our son-in-law wants to send you a letter with a little one." ”

Rui Xue wiped her hands on the apron, stretched out her hand to take it, and invited him to sit at the table, but Wangcai only stood aside respectfully, not daring, Rui Xue did not force him, took out the letter paper and looked at it carefully, seven or eight lines of big characters, the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, as if it would break out of the paper at any time, and it was with the arrogance of the person.

"Boss, do you remember the oath you made that day? There is something difficult to solve today, and I hope the boss lady will help. The second lady of Tianfu is the peach blossom robbery of this son, if the proprietress tries to cut off its roots, the covenant of the three things will go to one of them. This matter does not violate the law and moral conscience, and the proprietress should not shirk it. ”

After Rui Xue finished reading, her intuition was on fire, and she slapped the letter on the table with a "snap", and said angrily, "What about you sons?" ”

Wangcai was staring at the white fat bun and drooling, and when he saw Rui Xue angry, he immediately shrank his shoulders and replied cautiously, "Childe only asked the little one to send a letter, and the little one doesn't know where Childe went?" ”

Rui Xue saw that he was panicked, and she also felt that there was something wrong with her anger at him, so she accepted the letter and said in a low voice, "Go back and tell your son, I have nothing to do with the second lady of Tianfu, and I can't solve this matter." ”

Wangcai hurriedly responded, Gongzi only said yesterday that he wanted him to deliver a letter, but he didn't explain that he wanted him to persuade the proprietress, he saluted, secretly glanced at the big bun in the cage drawer, and was about to exit the door.

"Wait a minute," Rui Xue called out to him, reached out and picked up two buns and wrapped them in oiled paper and handed them over, "It's hard for you to pass the message, let's eat this bun on the way." ”

"Hey, thank you, boss." Wangcai was overjoyed, hurriedly thanked and took it, and ran out happily, still thinking in his heart, this boss lady is really good-hearted, and if the son will be bad in the future, he will help persuade him to say a few words.

The bolt held a bun, and while eating, he leaned over to Ruixue's side, and said with some doubts, "Master, that little brother just now seems to look very similar to his junior brother, can you be a long-lost brother of junior brother?" ”

Rui Xue was not angry in her heart, but when she heard him say this, she laughed, knocked on the door of his head, and said angrily, "In the future, read more books and practice calligraphy at night, don't always listen to Lao Pang and them talk about those dramas, there are many people in the world who look alike, are they still brothers?" ”

The bolt scratched his head and opened his mouth to argue, but when he saw Sister-in-law Zhang glaring at him, he shut up.

At this time, the stone ran in, and when he saw the steamed buns, he smiled with his eyebrows, and took him a bolt as well, and then pulled him and asked, "Senior brother, do you still have a brother at home, just now we had a little brother in the shop, who looks very similar to you." ”

Shi gulped down the buns, hissing twice from time to time, and replied indifferently, "I am an only son, and there are no brothers in the family, but there is a cousin who looks very similar to me, he was sold into a big family a few years ago as a small servant, it is impossible to come here, right?" ”

"Sold into a big family? Isn't that a cheap status? ”

"He entered the Chu family, it was a big family, there were pawnshops, restaurants, silver buildings, everything, and he followed the second son, maybe he would be a shopkeeper in the future..."

Rui Xue heard it on the side, the knife under his hand stopped, and stared at the stone carefully for a moment, in addition to being whiter and fatter than the stone just now, the facial features of the two really looked similar, and the little guy followed the man in red, is it...

"Stone, have you seen the appearance of the second son of the Chu family, does he like to wear red clothes and often hold a gold-painted fan in his hand?"

Shi remembered that his cousin talked about it during the New Year, and suddenly felt a little weak-hearted, hesitated for a while, and still felt that it was inappropriate to hide it from the master, so he told everything he knew, and then lowered his head and whispered, "Later, my cousin didn't go home, I thought they were wrong, so I didn't dare to mention it to the master." ”

Rui Xue's brows were furrowed, and she felt extremely uncomfortable, she didn't have to guess anymore, the red-clothed boy who swore with her was undoubtedly the second young man of the Chu family, no wonder he appeared by such a coincidence that day, and he opened his mouth to call Zhao Fengnian's sick seedling, it turned out that he already knew everything about her family.

What is this man's plan for wealth? No, she had already asked for the shop and the silver that day, and he was not moved. Is it colored? It's even more unlikely, although she is not ugly, she has not reached the point of making all men coveted...

She had a headache, and she couldn't find a clue, so she heard the neighing of horses outside the door, and then Qian Heitan ran in, and when she saw that everyone was there, she smiled and said, "Boss, there are guests visiting at home, and the shopkeeper asked me to pick you up." ”

"Guests? Who is it? Rui Xue suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, and sure enough, Qian Heitan said, "It seems that the two young ladies of Tianfu said that they came to visit the proprietress." ”

"Miss Tianfu!" Rui Xue glanced at the envelope on the table, and immediately understood, no wonder Chu Er Shao would make such a request, it turned out that he knew in advance that Miss Tian Fu would go to the Zhao family, and their Chu Mansion must have a great friendship with Tian Mansion, but he only led her to the door that day, and exchanged three requirements, which was really a good deal...
