Yang Ruoning, Chapter 10
For some reason, Fan Lou's shopkeeper actually found out with his "conscience" and changed Yang Ruoning's room. Behind a lush grove of trees at the edge of the atrium, the new room was a small and inconspicuous room in the corner. At the same time, the big shopkeeper also changed Yang Ruoning to work in the tea room, and specially delivered water and poured tea to VIP customers in the single room. Although it is a bit hard to climb up and down every day, Yang Ruoning feels very satisfied.
Qingye came to Fan Lou from time to time, asked for a VIP room, ordered a table of wine and food, and asked someone to find Yang Ruoning.
Yang Ruoning solemnly affirmed, "I'm just a tea pourer, and I have the right to refuse anything else." ”
Aono rolled his eyes, "What are you and me?" Cats in heat? I just wanted to talk to you. ”
Yang Ruoning was also speechless. "Why do you want to talk to me?"
"Because you're funny," Aono said.
"Well, if that's the case, I'll also charge for chatting!" Yang Ruoning protested. "By the way, when are you going to pay back my money?"
Aono smiled at her, then lowered his head and fumbled in his sleeve for a long time, finding a small bag. He opened the bag and poured out a few copper coins. He counted it in his hand, then grabbed Yang Ruoning's hand and put the copper plate in her palm. "Well, it's for you."
Yang Ruoning looked at the few copper plates in her palm, a little speechless. "I'll lend you fifteen taels of silver."
Aono said apologetically, "I've had a hard time getting money lately, Kunshi...... My uncle doesn't pay me...... These are what I want from Xiao Guizi. ”
Yang Ruoning looked helpless, "Are you kidding me?" "You, the emperor of a country, still want to borrow money from your little attendants? Do you think I'll believe it? ”
Aono's mouth opened wide in surprise. "You...... You got it? ”
"yes, I know. I thought the emperor would not borrow money and not pay it back, but it turned out that you were poorer than me. Yang Ruoning felt angry and funny.
Actually, Aono is right about one thing. There is a natural intimacy between the two of them when they are together. Yang Ruoning felt that she liked this hairy young emperor in her heart, and thought he was very interesting, like a child who didn't grow up, especially his tragic ending in the end, which made her feel sorry for him involuntarily.
Aono was urged back to the palace by Xiao Guizi after nightfall. Yang Ruoning waited for Su Su at the stone table in the courtyard as usual after everyone fell asleep. But what we are waiting for today is not Susu, but him.
When Luo Yuan walked through the corridor with a stack of rice paper and a brush inkstone, Yang Ruoning was in a daze. She was thinking that she had posted a lot of missing notices in the past month, but it didn't work, and occasionally there would be people who came to find them, but they all misunderstood the things on the painting. Does she want to think of another way?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a tall and straight figure walking towards this side from afar. His dark hair was not curled up like the other men, but scattered over his shoulders, the ends of his hair brushing up slightly with his steps. The facial features are even deeper under the hazy illumination of the moonlight and lanterns.
He walked straight over, bringing a hint of freshness. He sat down next to her, spread out the things in his hand, and then said while grinding the ink, "Su Su can't come here today, so I specially asked me to bring these things to you." ”
"Oh." Yang Ruoning responded. It was the first time she had been alone with Luo Yuan, and she felt that her brain had been short-circuited for the time being.
When the ink was polished, he held his sleeve with one hand, and dotted the brush in the inkstone with the other, and then handed the brush to her. Yang Ruoning said thank you a little embarrassed and took it.
She began to draw the camera on paper. He took a book out of his sleeve and began to look at it. When she was about to finish the painting, Yang Ruoning suddenly thought of how she should write the address when Su Su was not there. She looked up at Luo Yuan, who was reading a book next to her, and hesitated to ask him to help write it.
Luo Yuan seemed to guess her hesitation, he smiled slightly, put down the book, and naturally took the pen and paper from her hand. Yang Ruo stared at Luo Yuan, who was writing with his head down, and was a little stunned.
His chin was shaved and bright, his eyes were black and white and the tails of his eyes were raised, and a pair of flying thick eyebrows were inserted into his temples, the bridge of his nose was a green onion, but the tip of his nose was slightly lowered, and his thick black hair fell down his shoulders like a waterfall. He's such a good-looking man.
Then he looked up and met her gaze. She immediately turned her head sideways, pretending to read what he had written. Luo Yuan's bright eyes looked at her, as if they were covering everyone in them.
His handwriting is really good-looking, clean and tidy, just like himself, illiterate like Yang Ruoning praised in his heart.
"Miss Yang's things, haven't you found them yet?" Luo Yuan returned the paper to Yang Ruoning and asked.
She shook her head. "Not yet."
"When did Miss Yang know the man in Hui Niang's courtyard that day?" He asked suddenly.
"Oh, Aono. When I came here by boat from Youzhou City, I was in the same boat with him. Yang Ruoning was still admiring the row of small characters he had written, and replied casually.
"Do you know who that man is, girl?" He asked again.
Hearing this, Yang Ruoning put down the paper in her hand. She looked at him. In the prophecy, he would take the throne and kill Aono. When she heard Luo Yuan ask about Qingye, she instinctively was a little alert.
"Just a friend I met on a trip." She replied to meet his gaze.
"There is a shortage of miscellaneous people in my house, is the girl considering going to work in my house?"
She thought for a moment, and she didn't know why he suddenly offered to let her go to his house. She felt that although it was the same wherever she worked, he must not have the freedom of this Fan Lou in his house, and the other most important reason why she was here was that there was free wine to drink every day. So she said, "Thank you, General, but I'm only here temporarily, and I won't stay for long." ”
He was surprised, "Oh? Is the girl just here temporarily? ”
"Well, don't hide it from the general, I'm from a far, far away," Yang Ruoning casually gestured in the air in a direction, "I'm here to look for something, and if I find it, I'll go home." She cleaned up the things on the table. It was not early, so I went back to my room to rest. With that, he turned and left.
