Chapter 35: Waves

He Lingjiang narrowed his eyes and watched coldly as Lu Liulang entered the bookstore.

She calculated the time in her heart, and when she was about to touch it, she got up and said to Qiong Zhi: "I've been shopping for a long time today, and I've bought a lot of clothes and accessories." A few days later, it will be my brother's birthday, and there is a shop selling pen, ink, paper, inkstone and books and classics diagonally, let's go and see, but what is good, you can also give it to your brother as a gift. ”

Qiong Zhi replied with a smile: "Yes." ”

The two of them got out of the tea shop, first went to the shop that sold the four treasures of the study, picked a piece of old pit duanyan in good condition, and then turned around and entered the bookstore next to it.

"That inkstone is good, do you think Brother will like it?"

A soft laugh came, followed by another female voice: "Lang Jun will definitely like it, this is carefully selected by the little lady......"

The shopkeeper in the bookstore looked up and followed the voice, and saw two little ladies coming from the next shop one after the other. It's hot today, and the one in front is still holding a fan, shaking it slightly.

He hurriedly smiled and greeted him: "What do you two want to choose?" ”

He Lingjiang shook the fan gently: "I'll take a look first, see what classics are in your store, if there are good ones, buy a few." ”

The bookstore is not big, but there are many kinds of books, well organized, from the market script, the strategy and the technique to the Zhuzi theory, poetry and books are all possessed, and the volumes are neatly arranged on the bookshelf.

He Lingjiang walked along the bookshelves, occasionally opening the title of the book to take a look, and the shopkeeper followed her step by step, looking very eager.

It's really strange, I obviously didn't see Lu Liulang come out, but at this time, I didn't see his figure in this small bookstore, it seems that there is something else.

"Shopkeeper, do you have any rare books here? My brother has a recent birthday, and if he can pick up the inkstone to send him together, he will be happy. ”

He Lingjiang stopped at the last row of bookshelves, like a young lady who was bent on preparing a birthday gift for her brother, looking like a carefully selected person.

The shopkeeper had a smile on his face: "Then you've come to the right place!" The small shop recently deliberately copied Fang everyone's latest writings on poetry and commentary, I don't know if the little lady is interested? ”

"Fang everyone?" He Lingjiang's eyes lit up, "Then let's take a look." ”

"Okay, wait a minute." The shopkeeper said happily, turned around and climbed to the top of the bookshelf, took down a hardcover classic book, and handed it to He Lingjiang.

She opened it a few times, and then said briskly: "That's it!" ”

"Okay." Seeing that she was so cool, the shopkeeper hurriedly wrapped up the school.

He Lingjiang glanced around, and indeed saw no trace of Lu Liulang, so he took the book in the shopkeeper's hand, and after paying the money, he took Qiong Zhi out of the shop.

Seeing her figure turn into the shop across several storefronts, the shopkeeper turned to the last row of bookshelves against the wall, and knocked on his fingers.

After waiting for a few breaths, the bookshelf slowly moved away to reveal a gap for one person to pass, and Lu Liulang's figure was exposed from inside: "People are gone?" ”

When he had come in and finished talking with the shopkeeper, he went into the dark room and took what had been left inside, and when he was just trying to come out, he noticed that someone seemed to be outside, so he had to stay in it for a while, and waited until the shopkeeper knocked on the wall to signal that he came out.

The shopkeeper nodded, and took down the two books that had been prepared at hand: "The little lady picked out the books for a while, so she stayed for a long time, and bought a book of poems for evaluation." ”

"There's nothing wrong with people, right?" Lu Liulang asked.

"It's just an ordinary little lady." The shopkeeper said, "This book is spread out on the bustling streets, and most of the people who come and go are the ladies and daughters of the powerful families of the Yingdu Shi clan, so it is naturally more convenient to inquire about the news, but if you want to stand here without arousing suspicion, you must always do some business as usual." ”

"No problem." Lu Liulang said in a low voice, "I have taken all the things inside, I will do the same, let the envoy rest assured." ”

The shopkeeper patted him on the shoulder: "Be cautious, don't show your feet." ”

"Got it." Lu Liulang reached out and took the booklet he handed over, closed the bookshelf behind him, and stepped forward to go out.

At this moment, a hurried footstep came from outside, and the two looked at each other, and walked out from behind the bookshelf as usual, just like the old shopkeeper was receiving ordinary booksellers.

Seeing He Lingjiang who turned back again, the shopkeeper couldn't help but be surprised: "This lady, why did you turn back again?" But what other books would you like to pick? ”

He Lingjiang smiled and waved his hand: "That's not it." ”

She walked closer and closer, the shopkeeper and Lu Liulang couldn't help but tense their bodies, and He Ling Jiang Xing went to the two of them and apologized: "The fan I carried with me before seems to have fallen behind the bookshelf, can you bother the two of you to give way?" ”

Fan?

The shopkeeper thought about it, and when the little lady put it in the bookstore, she did take a fan, and then he was busy sending her away, but he didn't pay attention to the fan in her hand.

It seems that when he left, he didn't hold a fan in his hand.

He glanced at Lu Liulang without a trace, nodded almost invisibly, and Lu Liulang's eyes who stopped in the aisle flashed slightly, and he still turned sideways: "Please." ”

He Lingjiang nodded in thanks, and then walked a few steps to the last row of bookshelves, and the eyes of the two followed her closely, and the atmosphere seemed to tense all of a sudden.

She paced a few steps in front of the bookshelf, looked up and down, and sure enough, she pulled out a delicately embroidered fan in the corner of the third floor: "Sure enough."

Fell here. ”

When she reached out and took the fan, she turned back the same way, and when she passed by Lu Liulang's side, she saw that he was still standing in the distance, she couldn't help frowning lightly and whispered: "Lao Jialangjun will let me go again." ”

Lu Liulang's eyes were slightly cold, but when he swept to the fan she was holding, the light purple tassel that fell swayed slightly, and he still stepped away.

"Thank you." He Lingjiang took the folding fan, then left the shop and left with the maidservant.

Lu Liulang and the shopkeeper walked to the door of the store, watched her figure get farther and farther away, and finally disappeared into the alley, and then said: "It seems that her appearance is a bit coincidental......

The shopkeeper also narrowed his eyes: "Yes, some." ”

When I climbed up to the shelf to pick up the book for her, I didn't see her move, maybe the fan fell at that time, and her reason was so good that people couldn't find fault with it.

It's just that people like them have been cautious for a long time, and they always inevitably have some indescribable feelings. It is this sensitivity that has helped him avoid some crisis moments many times.

"That's going to have to be arranged quickly. So as not to dream too much at night, and then have a change in vain......" said the shopkeeper slowly.

The envoy left something for Lu Liulang in the dark room, and now that he has taken it out, it is better to make it quickly.

is most afraid of waves on the flat ground, this truth, Lu Liulang naturally knows.

He bowed slightly: "I have a number in my heart." ”
