Chapter 44: Saving the Wind and Dust (II)

The shopkeeper of Heming Tower made a gesture to the young man in the brocade robe: "The prince is here, but is it a meal?" ”

The young man looked at the turtle man Nunu with a smile on his face: "Those who are with them, looking for people." ”

The shopkeeper's eyes were not full of suspicion, and the young man had already followed Gui Gong to the front of the book pavilion at the east end.

Gui Gong's eyes were sharp, and judging from his clothes and bearing, Zheng Haizhu, who stopped at the door, was by no means a low-level attendant, so he greeted politely: "Girl, forgive me." ”

Zheng Haizhu said lightly: "I heard it just now." It's the young lady of the Xu Mansion, and you can't go in. ”

Her honorific title of "under the foot" is said to the brocade-robed boy beside the turtle father.

Zheng Haizhu recognized the woman's clothes in the son's hand, which was the red dress embroidered with tuberose flowers that Ru Leo often wore, and guessed seven or eight points in her heart, this delicate and gentle son was probably the guest that Ru Leek got rid of today.

She felt strange that this brocade-robed boy did not show the slightest hint of annoyance, let alone as excited as ordinary people watching the excitement.

In Childe's eyes, after the embarrassment faded away like a dust leaf swept by the wind, he revealed a little helplessness.

He arched his hand at Zheng Haizhu, controlled his body, and didn't dare to go beyond the rules, looked at Xu Yu in the library, and said to the turtle: "There is nothing strange in it." ”

Gui Gong scolded in his heart: eggs.

These officials and gentry and scribes who come and go to Qingfeng Building, Gui Gong has seen a lot, and one by one they talk about officialdom or articles and poems, talking endlessly, as if they are capable, in fact, the rivers and lakes are very shallow.

Gu Gongpi shook his cheeks without smiling, and said to Xu Huizhen in the room: "Miss Xu, the person we are looking for is infected with a vicious disease, and he will pass it to others, if Miss sees a girl with big eyes and a melon seed face and a mole on the center of her right eyebrow, don't come close." ”

Xu Huizhen raised her face, looked at the two adult men outside the door, looked calm, nodded, and said that she knew.

This clever little girl, who was laughing at Guigong's clumsy and aggressive tactics in her heart, didn't want to open her mouth, but suddenly saw her mother hurrying from the flower hall, but she panicked slightly.

If her mother dragged her away, wouldn't this house be able to teach the people of the brothel to search it?

So he looked too lazy to deal with outsiders, buried his head in debugging the paint, picked up the sheep's hair, and began to trace next to the half-drawn embroidery sample by Zheng Haizhu.

Gu Lanjie had already walked to the door. She had just heard the noise in the courtyard, and she was worried about her young daughter, so she immediately left the table and asked the maid Cui Liu about the situation.

At this time, of course, she was self-exalted and would not talk to the turtle father, only to see Zheng Haizhu properly stopped outside the house, relieved, and said warmly, "How are you painting", and walked straight into the library.

Xu Huizhen made a cheerful gesture, showing her mother the rosette Maria outlined by Zheng Haizhu, and introduced the novelty of the mission one after another.

Zheng Haizhu, who was outside the door, was nervous, and secretly admired that Xu Guangqi's little granddaughter was not yet ten years old, and she was so calm and calm.

Seeing this, the brocade-robed boy on the side showed a relieved expression, coughed lightly, and said politely to Zheng Haizhu: "Farewell." ”

However, the turtle man rolled his eyes and went around the east window of the library.

Zheng Haizhu estimated that he was looking to see the traces of someone stepping on the outside of the wall and under the window. Fortunately, there was neither mud nor shrubs outside the library, and there was a layer of weeds.

A moment ago, Zheng Haizhu had already probed vigilantly from inside the house, and could not see Ru Leek'er's footprints.

Unexpectedly, the turtle man suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "Ru Leek! You're hiding right here! ”

Everyone inside and outside the house was shocked.

In the silence that fell in an instant, the turtle prince raised his head with his sleeves high, through the window lattice, and said contemptuously to the house: "Ru Leek, what you have in your hair today is still the 'Sailan incense' that Ruan Gongzi gave you!" ”

Hearing his shouting, the maid Cui Liu and the shopkeeper of Heming Tower in the direction of the flower hall, as well as the nurses of the brothels, all ran over.

Gui Gong became more and more determined to win, paced back to the main entrance of the library, and said to everyone with a cruel smile: "I want to teach you to know that the kid surnamed Ruan is really not a good thing. He has a clan brother named Ruan Dacheng, a jinshi in the middle of this year, who sent people to Songjiang yesterday to find him, recruit him as a follower, and call him to Yingtianfu to meet the officialdom. What's even more coincidental is that it turns out that the owner of our Qingfeng Building is actually related to the owner of Ruan Dacheng. The boy surnamed Ruan had a thought about his future, and naturally he didn't dare to kidnap my girl again, no, he came to my house at noon to report the letter, and gave a bottle of this, saying that it was a perfume made by Ru Leek with the orchids he planted. ”

Gui Gong took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, pulled out the cloth stopper, and proudly issued an ultimatum to the people in the house: "Leek girl, your good friend told us that the fragrance of orchids in the world is far from clear, and the smell of this orchid planted by his family is strong. Just now, Lao Tzu can smell clearly, and the smell of this Seran incense on the other side of the window is stronger than the smell on the red dress you took off. ”

"Huh? Really? The brocade-robed boy picked up the skirt in his hand and sniffed it, and said seriously, "How can I not smell any bitter breath." ”

Gui Gong was not a decent person, and he didn't care about his face, so he simply smiled: "Master Tao, the little one has worked in Qingfeng Building for eighteen years, what girl hasn't smelled the smell of perfume fat powder?" The nose is naturally more than that of a dog Turin. Oops, the leek girl is finally out! ”

With the last words of the turtle prince, everyone at the door turned their heads to look at the room, but saw Ru Leek's hair in a messy bun, and her face was like earth at the desk.

She brushed her sideburns, shook her sleeves, knelt down to Gu Lanjie, and said loudly while kowtowing: "Grandma, when Miss and that girl came in, the slave family was already hiding in the house. The slave family was stupid and disgusted, and this time it disturbed the young lady and begged her grandmother for forgiveness. ”

Gu Lanjie is so smart, when Ru Leek came out a moment ago, Xu Huizhen's low "hey" was more annoyed than frightened, obviously she already knew who was hiding in the box, how could she, a mother who was close at hand, not hear it.

His daughter, as well as Miss Zheng, and even this wrongly infatuated Ru Leek, are all kind-hearted children.

Gu Lanjie thought like this, raised his hand with a pleasant face and motioned for Ru Yun'er to get up, then walked out of the house, glanced at everyone, and said to Cui Liu first: "You go back to the flower hall and report to the old lady, saying that there are outsiders looking for someone, nothing serious." ”

"Yes."

Cui Liu was far away, Gu Lanjie put on a face, and said to the turtle: "In our Xu family's Mercy and Grace Hall, there are often girls near the Moon River who come to pray. This girl, although I look at the face, but today is also under my nose, you Qingfeng Lou has found someone, so it is difficult for her. ”

As soon as Xu Gu's words fell, the brocade-clothed boy surnamed Tao nodded again and again, and said along with the meaning: "This grandma is right, grandma can rest assured, follow them below, and send the leek girl back to the city." ”

He walked up to Ru Li'er and handed her back the skirt he had been holding conscientiously.

Ru Lean'er used the excuse of a small relief at that time, took off her gorgeous clothes and fled, and at this moment she only felt very indebted to this new guest who had been deceived by herself.

Thinking of Ruan Lang, who swore an oath to his mountain alliance and sea again, he turned his head because he didn't have a trace of his future, and his affection became thin, and he didn't know how to pity himself as the Tao Gongzi who had only known him for three days.

Ru Li'er said softly, "Tao Gongzi can't stand it", and looked at Zheng Haizhu at the moment when she turned around and put on her red gown.

That look was self-deprecating to the extreme.

Immediately, Ru Jiu'er understood Zheng Haizhu's worries, turned to Xu Gu and said, "The slave family went to the Ci'en Hall to sprinkle and help, but I begged my grandmother not to dislike it." ”

This shows that although he is sad, he will not have the stupid idea of looking for a short-sighted sight.

Gu Lanjie said gently: "God said, may be merciful, and may mercy flow like a river." Girl, how can I dislike you, come here when you have time. ”

When the group went out and walked away, Xiao Huizhen ran out, rubbed to Gu Lanjie's side, and whispered "Mother" like a cat.

Gu Lanjie gently stroked her daughter's bun, turned her head sideways and said to Zheng Haizhu, who was standing solemnly: "I just said it, it's not a big deal. Go ahead and draw. ”
