Chapter 357: Three Women, One Play
After two hours of travel, the handlebar suddenly stopped.
What's going on? The three of them looked at each other, it wouldn't be too snowy to walk, it was miserable, it was snowing heavily, it was difficult to find a place to stay, Chen Yuan asked: "Master Liao, what's wrong?" ”
"Master Hou, there's a woman in front."
Woman? What is the woman curious about, Chen Yuan is very strange, he opened the curtain and saw that there was a beautiful person standing in front of him, it was Li Yuyi, this ice and snow, the wind and snow shouted, as if to drown her small body.
Her hands and face were red, and the blue padded jacket on her body was almost soaked, and it seemed that she had come step by step.
It's really a stubborn girl, and the snowstorm has to come quietly, looking at the stubborn and a little imperceptible weirdness in her eyes. It seems that he also came out to stop the car on purpose.
"Miss Li, why are you so troubled?" Chen Yuan smiled bitterly, "With your ability, it is not difficult to find a place to live in Shuntian, so why bother to follow us to endure hardships." ”
Li Yuyi said stubbornly: "Take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, I am not a ruthless and unrighteous person like you, since I have taken your money, I will definitely protect your life secretly." She was angry in her heart, that day when Chen Yuan entered the door, she was humiliated by Geng Cairuo for a few words, and took a few taels of silver and sent away. Send beggars.
If an ordinary woman had long since hid far away, she would never appear again. Li Yuyi has experienced the destruction of her family and the struggle of life and death in the past few years, and the more she fails, the more she refuses to give up.
Geng Cairuo heard the movement, and when he saw her, he was angry, showed his sword, and hummed: "You still dare to come." ”
Li Yuyi didn't let me go at all: "Why don't you dare to come, I am performing my duties, but I am not like someone, named Woman, who is actually a vase, staying at home every day, eating three meals a day, doing nothing." ”
Geng Cairuo raised his willow eyebrows: "Who are you talking about?" ”
"I didn't name anyone."
"You-" Geng Cairuo jumped out of the car, drew his sword, and snorted angrily, "Do you dare to compete with me to see who the vase is." ”
"I'm not afraid of you." Li Yuyi distanced himself and pulled out the knife he was carrying.
Seeing that a big war was going to start in the snow, Chen Yuan was very anxious, it was not good to cold his wife, in case he was injured, where to find a doctor.
"Sister Geng, forget it." Jian Yixuan stopped Geng Cairuo.
"Stop." Chen Yuan stopped Li Yuyi with a dark face.
"Why should I listen to you?"
"Why? With me as an employer, she is the wife of the employer, no big or small, and if she doesn't accept the knife, it's against you. Chen Yuan scolded, Li Yuyi was stunned for a while, surprisingly did not refute, and obediently withdrew the knife.
Geng Cairuo was also uneven, curious: "Yi Xuan, you-"
"Miss Li, it's cold outside, it's icy and snowy, if you go down, you're going to freeze your body, Jiaodong is still far away, go to the car, there is a charcoal fire in the car, warm your body."
This is a woman who has bad intentions for her father-in-law, just don't beat her up, and let her get in the car? Geng Cairuo's eyes widened, and he really didn't understand Jian Yixuan's behavior.
Jian Yixuan explained: "God has the virtue of a good life, but unfamiliar passers-by, we have to help one or two when we meet, not to mention that Miss Li protects our Xianggong, the credit is not small, how can she bear this snowstorm, Xianggong, do you say yes?" ”
Chen Yuan's head is big, he doesn't like Li Yuyi to stir up trouble and make his family disharmonious, but she has let herself go before, especially when she was in Shandong, and she also saved her life, and she really can't bear to throw her in the snow. He cried out, "Everything is arranged by Madame." ”
Geng Cairuo was anxious, but he also knew that he had indeed saved Xianggong's life and guarded Xianggong, so his heart softened a little, and he got into the car first, humming in his mouth: "Whatever you want." ”
"Miss Li, please get in the car." Chen Yuandao.
"You invited me, not me to deal with your wife, so as not to say that I have no rules."
Chen Yuan was embarrassed: "Yes, yes, I invited you." ”
Jian Yixuan got into the car first, Li Yuyi second, and when he passed by Chen Yuan's side, he scolded in a low voice: "My wife is strict and has no opinions." ”
Chen Yuan pursed his lips and said Who is it, I am too lazy to bother with you.
The space of the car is not very large, the four people are a bit crowded, and there is a charcoal fire in the center. There are also pastries and fruits on the side.
Completely lost the atmosphere of the beginning of the family, Jian Yixuan's expression was light, Li Yuyi and Geng Cairuo stared at each other, and Chen Yuan had to close his eyes and recuperate.
I walked for half a month in a row, in addition to staying in the store, I was in a hurry during the day, and I didn't rush to Jiaodong until the day before the New Year. As we approached Jiaodong, the weather cleared and the snow melted, indicating that spring was coming.
There are two lions in front of the door, the vermilion lacquer gate, and the ring on the door is shiny. In the center above the door, four big characters flashed: Weining Hou Mansion.
Chen Yuan looked at his future home, stretched his sour arms, and said, "Finally home." ”
"Hou Ye has arrived, Hou Ye has arrived." The door creaked open, and ten servants came out to welcome their master.
"Ah Yuan, Ah Yuan, you have finally arrived, I have waited for you to thank you for waiting for the flowers...... A big fat man suddenly rushed out from the right and gave Chen Yuan a bear hug.
Chen Yuan's face was full of black lines, there was this living treasure everywhere. subconsciously looked at Li Yuyi, but it was empty, and she didn't know where she had flashed again.
"You're not in Le'an Prefecture, how did you come here?"
Speaking of this, Bao joined the army triumphantly: "Hehe, didn't we meet a great benevolent person, not only settled the account for us, but also sent me to Jiaodong." ”
Great good man? Chen Yuan's face was full of question marks.
"We all know that Liu Dashan is indeed a well-known good person, he is in Shandong, is second to none rich man, I heard that he was still a Beijing official, and often helped the poor after returning to his hometown, Shandong After many years of darkness, the people lack food and clothing in winter, Liu Dashan also opened a porridge shed to relieve the nearby people." Chen Yuan's servant named Wei Liuzi said.
was robbed of his lines, Bao was very unhappy when he joined the army, and hummed: "You just heard, I saw it, Liu Dashan took in a lot of orphans, I heard that he is rich and rivals the country, Shandong, there is no one he can not move, hehe, Ah Yuan, you want to gain a foothold in Shandong, naturally you have to get acquainted with these characters, without the support of the squire, you can't even collect taxes, Liu Dashan has a very good impression of me, and I will introduce you one day." ”
Chen Yuan nodded, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, don't look at him as the Marquis of Weining, the county officials are not as good as the current management, he does not move the officials of Shandong, these squires, turn their hands into clouds and cover their hands for rain, and if they don't have a good relationship, their Hou Mansion will not be at peace.
"Let's go inside, it's cold outside." Jian Yixuan said, everyone welcomed Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou with joy, Bao Fat Man also mixed in, and he couldn't go back to home, and said hee-hee: "Ah Yuan, we are together again, we Chongwen and the two kings, we can fight the invincible opponents all over the world again." ”
Chen Yuan's face twitched, this living treasure still mentioned this nickname, but his thoughts drifted to the past, and he couldn't help but smile.
After entering the house, Chen Yuan was not idle, and took matters into his own hands and led the servants to clean up. In fact, they have been cleaned very clean, but it's going to be the New Year, and there has to be a New Year's atmosphere.
I cleaned up everywhere and asked the servants to buy things for the New Year. At this time, the price of goods was extremely high, and many shops were closed, and it cost more than 100 taels of silver to buy silk, incense and candles for the New Year.
Bao joined the army, the fat man couldn't work, he shouted tired after dancing twice, and ran to the hall to roast the fire and drink tea.
Chen Yuan smiled and cleaned up inside and out. Jian Yixuan instructed the servants to place the furniture, rearrange the hanging of calligraphy and paintings, and place the screens, and she was very good at these, and arranged the study and bedroom with a strong bookish fragrance, which was classical and elegant.
Marquis Chen hummed a little song and went to the west wing to wipe the doors and windows. It's not that the servants can't clean it, but after so many years, they finally have their own big house, and they have a beautiful wife and concubine, and that sense of fulfillment, it seems that the doors and windows have to be wiped several times to reflect that kind of satisfaction and leisure.
When he pushed the door open, Li Yuyi was ghostly inside, and Chen Yuan was not surprised.
He wiped it for a while, but saw Li Yuyi motionless, sitting there in a daze.
Looking at her eyes, she is very lonely, she should be thinking about her relatives and hometown.
Chen Yuan couldn't bear to say: "Miss Li, if you don't dislike it, this year, you can accompany us for the New Year, there are many people and it is lively." ”
Li Yuyi was stunned, and smiled: "Then I am the identity of the outer room?" Or what is the identity, to your New Year. ”
Outer Chambers? How dare I, Cai Ruo still doesn't abolish me, knowing that she has a plan, her heart still jumps, and she said with a dry smile: "We have known each other for so long, and we have experienced life and death, so we can be regarded as friends of life and death, isn't it unusual for friends to spend the New Year at home?" ”
"Friends?"
"That's right."
"I don't need friends."
Chen Yuan was suffocated, will he chat.
Li Yuyi stood up, his eyes were no longer the loss and dazedness just now, and he got up and walked out. When passing by Chen Yuan's side, she suddenly approached Chen Yuan, exhaled like an orchid, and said coquettishly: "My eldest marquis, one day, I will let you willingly conceive a son for me." ”
Chen Yuan's face stiffened, where to stay.
Li Yuyi smiled charmingly, and when Chen Yuan reacted, he only left a laugh like a silver bell.
Chen Yuan was stunned and continued to clean the window, but he always couldn't hold the rag, and hummed in his mouth: "The old man is unyielding, refuses bad temptations, the top ten good boys, model husbands, want to tempt me, there is no door." ”
"What top ten teenagers? Ah Yuan, what are you talking about? I don't understand at all, who was talking to just now, how I felt that the woman's voice was a little familiar. ”
Chen Yuan was startled, if he let this fat man know that Li Yuyi and himself were not clear, would he use a kitchen knife to chase him. Immediately shook his head and said, "It's nothing." Brother join the army, you kid take it easy, the people in my house are very well-behaved, don't fool my maid, otherwise, brother, I'm not welcome. ”
Bao Fatzi sneered: "Accident, this is an accident." I'll just talk about it, tease them, and set off the atmosphere of the New Year, you know, I was deceived by women so badly, I didn't dare to mess with these tigresses for a long time. ”
Chen Yuan glanced at him: "It's good that you know, by the way, you're not in the hall, why did you come here." ”
Bao Senjun slapped his head and exclaimed, "Ouch, I almost forgot about business." It was Princess Annan who came. ”
