Chapter 76: Visiting the Immortal Pavilion
Su Su sat back on the bed, hugged her knees and buried her face in the crook of her arm, Xiao Wan came up to her and asked in a low voice: "Su Su, are you angry, this matter has not been settled, we just said so." ”
"How can you be angry?" Su Susheng was like a mosquito, stretched out a hand, grabbed Xiaowan's arm and said, "But I said, you can't laugh at me, and you can't look down on me." ”
Xiaowan nodded again and again, Su Su's eyes were red, and tears were shining: "Since I met him on the road the first day, and I have been very relieved to see him every day since then, in fact, I didn't dare to tell you that I was scared to walk such a long way alone early in the morning." You told me not to come so early, but I would be glad that it was dawn and there were more people on the road. But if I came late, I couldn't meet him, so I came early every day. ”
"Susu?" Xiaowan blinked, "Are you ......?"
The two sisters have the same heart, Xiaowan has already understood, Su Su tears are like rain, crying: "People like me are not qualified, and there is such a thing as a result, he saw me so unbearable yesterday, Xiaowan, I really can't live." I thought maybe I could hide it, just if I was a dead man, from somewhere else. ”
Xiaowan hugged the trembling man, very distressed, and even more hateful.
Su Su cried: "But now, I don't even need to lie, I don't need to." ”
Xiaowan wiped her tears, but she didn't know what words to use to comfort her.
If it was really Yue Huaiyin who sent someone to rape Su Su, she must have hated Su Su for leaving the rouge shop and going to the inn, clearly wanting to make Su Su have a hard time in this life, maybe this time will not be the next time, how can she be so vicious, under such a beautiful skin, she is wrapped in a rotten heart.
Let's say that Ling Chaofeng left Baisha Village and went straight to the Yamen of Baisha County, and the county magistrate's madness is said to be bad until this morning.
Because everyone said that he personally released Ling Chaofeng and locked himself in prison, and finally was forcibly sent home by everyone, even his wife and concubine said so, the county master was a little confused, and when he saw Ling Chaofeng again, his eyes were floating.
He can't remember anything about last night, not even a dream, if he is either evil, or he has bumped into a ghost, this Lingxiao Inn is really very promising.
Speaking of human trafficking, before I could say a few words, someone from the prefect's yamen came, it was Li Zhutou, who Ling Chaofeng was familiar with, and he followed Lord Liang to Lizhou Mansion for promotion, and he was still very polite when he met again, saying that Lord Liang asked the magistrate to go to the county.
The magistrate didn't dare to disobey, looked at Ling Chaofeng, and waved his hand: "Let's go, if there is any official who will send someone to look for you again, these days, you are not allowed to run far, human trafficking is a capital crime, you should be careful." ”
Outside the yamen, Ling Chaofeng said goodbye to Li Zhutou, and Li Zhutou said: "Shopkeeper Ling, don't worry, everything is with Lord Liang, Lord Liang followed your words, and did not explicitly mention anything to this pus, but someone was placed in the yamen, and the prefect yamen will soon know anything and will not delay you." ”
Li Zhutou was more polite than before, and said again when he parted: "In addition, we went to Lizhou Mansion and knew some things, the newly opened Rouge Shop Siyun Pavilion last year, the proprietress there seems to have some origins, Lord Liang has not fully figured it out, but I heard that she had something to do with Lord Meng before, and Lord Meng had seen her the day before she died." I heard that you have dealings, and I have the right to be more careful, Ling shopkeeper, and keep an eye on it. ”
Ling Chaofeng hugged his fists and said: "Thank you, Brother Li, Aunt Zhang and Uncle Biao are very worried about you, in a few days, we will come to Lizhou Mansion to pay a visit." ”
The two said goodbye, the county magistrate also went to Lizhou Mansion in a sedan chair, Ling Chaofeng left the yamen, rode a horse to the familiar medical hall, sat in the medical hall for a while, and then came to Siyun Pavilion, but the guy in front of the door told him: "Our young lady went out." ”
In Baisha Village, it was the time for lunch, and the neighbors on the side seemed to know that Su Su was sick, although they didn't understand what was happening, they were very enthusiastic to visit, and gave the eldest mother sweet potatoes and pickles or something, and the eldest mother had to talk to them in the yard.
Xiaowan ate with Su Su in the house, Su Su had no appetite, only barely drank a few mouthfuls of rice soup, Xiao Wan looked very distressed, but she was reluctant to force her.
But at this moment, I heard the eldest mother say, "Miss, why are you here?" ”
The people in the room were all stunned, Su Su didn't think that it might be Yue Huaiyin who was playing tricks on her, but Xiaowan had already juxtaposed this person to the point that she would never forgive like Xu.
I saw Aunt Chen, with Yue Huaiyin into the door, she came with a full body of spring, the beauty tied the skirt high on her chest, the pale yellow light yarn fluttering, the lotus flower was gentle and colorful, and the fragrance as always.
Such a fairy-like character provoked several neighbor women who couldn't bear to leave, and came over to take a few more looks, and Aunt Chen invited Yue Huaiyin to sit down, and then went to entertain them again.
"It turns out that Xiaowan is also here, what's wrong with Su Su, are you sick, your face is so bad." Yue Huaiyin asked with concern, and she said, "I happened to be passing by here today, and I knew that you live here, so I wanted to come and see it." I thought I only saw the eldest lady, but I didn't expect you to be there, I thought Su Su should be working in the inn at this time. ”
Su Su bowed her body and said without words, Xiaowan said lightly on the side: "Su Su is not in good health today, I will accompany her." ”
In her heart, she wanted to rush up and tear Yue Huaiyin's face, so as to tear off her skin and let people see the rotten heart in her, but she couldn't be impulsive.
Although the jade ring told her who the murderer was, there was no evidence, she acted rashly, if she asked Yue Huaiyin to grab the handle, she was not afraid of anything else, she was afraid that Su Su would be humiliated again, and she would not be able to live in this Baisha Village in the future.
She now gradually understands that the more capable people are, the more they can't do whatever they want, and it is precisely because they can calculate everything well and grasp the overall situation that they can do more. And being high-spirited is just a moment of refreshment, and after being refreshed, it may be endless trouble.
On that day, she impulsively changed Su Su and Aunt Chen to the dock, wasn't it just a momentary mood? So far, so many troubles have been involved.
Xiaowan calmed herself down and said kindly: "Miss Yue, Su Su is not in good health, I'm afraid I can't chat with you more, wait for her to get better another day, we will ......"
Yue Huaiyin said: "Then another day, I will come to the inn, since I have eaten the food cooked by Uncle Biao, everything else has no taste." ”
Xiaowan didn't say anything, but Yue Huaiyin got closer and asked with concern: "Susu, why are you injured, who beat you?" ”
Su Su curled up her hands and feet, shook her head vigorously, and hid in Xiao Wan's arms, Xiao Wan said, "Miss Yue, you are wrong. ”
Yue Huaiyin nodded: "Maybe I was wrong, or not, I am relieved to know that you and Aunt Chen are doing well." She got up and looked at the tiled house, which was unremarkable, and said with a smile, "You two live there, you still have to be careful of the door." Okay, I'm leaving, and in a few days, I'll ask someone in the store to bring you something. ”
Su Su lay in Xiao Wan's arms, Xiao Wan protected her, endured her anger and didn't say anything, but at this moment, there was the sound of horses' hooves outside the door, and not long after, Ling Chaofeng's figure appeared outside the door.
Yue Huaiyin walked out and glanced at Ling Chaofeng: "Shopkeeper Ling is also here?" It was so coincidental that I met here. ”
Ling Chaofeng came all the way, worried that Yue Huaiyin had gone to Su Su's house, and sure enough, what he was most worried about was that he was afraid that Xiao Wan would not be angry and would quarrel with Yue Huaiyin or even fight.
I didn't expect to come and see, everything was as usual, and when he saw Xiaowan accompanying Su Su inside, he breathed a sigh of relief, and was full of comfort, he knew that Xiaowan was never stupid.
"Tonight, I'll send it to Boss Yue." Ling Chaofeng stood in front of the door and said, "You are waiting for me here." ”
A chill appeared in the corner of Yue Huaiyin's eyes, he smiled coldly, lifted his skirt and walked out, got into the carriage by himself, and ordered the guys to move forward, not caring about Ling Chaofeng at all, whether he wanted to follow him.
But along the way, there was an unhurried sound of horses' hooves coming from behind, Yue Huaiyin sat in the car, smiled triumphantly, took out a small paper bag from his arms, and pinched it in the palm of his hand.
Back in Baisha Town, Yue Huaiyin got out of the carriage and saw Ling Chaofeng behind him, and the guys in the store were enthusiastic: "Shopkeeper Ling, you are here, but you are here to buy rouge gouache for the lady?" ”
Yue Huaiyin calmly entered the door and instructed everyone: "You don't have to be busy, Shopkeeper Ling and I have some business matters, go to the backyard to talk." You take care of the business outside, and if anyone comes to me, ask them to come back another day. ”
Everyone agreed, Yue Huaiyin did not deliberately lead the way, but Ling Chaofeng kept following her, and when she arrived in the wing, after the maidservant brought the tea, she was ordered to retreat, and the backyard was suddenly quiet, as if there was no one left.
Yue Huaiyin walked to the door, lightly locked it casually, and then returned to the table, bringing a bowl of tea to Ling Chaofeng: "Shopkeeper Ling, use tea." ”
"Not busy." Ling Chaofeng said, "I'm here, naturally I have something to ask, everyone is straight to the point." ”
"They are all businessmen, and they don't beat around the bush." Yue Huaiyin looked at each other with a smile and asked, "Shopkeeper Ling, what are you talking about?" ”
Ling Chaofeng's expression was indifferent: "Miss Yue, but you're from the capital?" ”
Yue Huaiyin raised his eyebrows lightly and coldly: "How?" ”
Ling Chaofeng said: "Qing-Lou in the capital, the most prestigious is to visit the Immortal Pavilion, and the Oiran who only hears its name in the Immortal Pavilion is said to have disappeared in the past two years. ”
"Visit the Immortal Pavilion ......" Yue Huaiyin lowered her head and fiddled with the teacup in front of her, and said faintly, "What a familiar name." ”
"It's where Miss Yue was born and raised, so you're naturally familiar with it."
"Have you inquired carefully?" Yue Huaiyin's sharp gaze surrendered to Ling Chaofeng and rushed in front of him, "Since that's the case, then you should also know ......"
I saw that between the red lips and white teeth, a burst of smoke rose up, and Yue Huaiyin spilled something from his palm, straight to Ling Chaofeng's nose and mouth, with a strange aroma, and rushed to his head.
With a bang, the tall man fell from the chair, Ling Chaofeng's eyes were closed, unconscious.
