Chapter 88: Rumors
If it weren't for Shi Qiqing's fame, we wouldn't have arrested him!
An Jiangchun, who was standing outside the door of the private room, muttered in his heart and listened carefully. Shi Qiqing, a hermit in Wusha Town, was the person his master named to arrest, but before they could make a move, Shi Qiqing was arrested, and the master also lost his temper in the mansion.
Although they all guessed that Shi Qiqing was captured by the prince, there was no evidence and no one could be found. If he can find Shi Qiqing's whereabouts this time, his trip will not be in vain.
In the private room, Shen Ge shook his head and sighed, "We searched Wusha Town, but we couldn't find the whereabouts of Mr., so we could only scatter and look around. Most of the people here have only heard of Mr.'s name, but they have never seen him, so they have to bother Brother Zheng to help paint Mr.'s portrait."
Zheng Changming, who had just won the painting hand of Hezhou God, took the lead, "Drunk ink, go to the carriage and get the pen and ink of Young Master Ben."
Although the title of "Hezhou God Painter" is a high hat that Shen Ge gave to Zheng Changming, but looking at the lifelike Mr. Dongzhu in his pen, Shen Ge, who had red eyes, felt that Zheng Changming could afford this title, and his words of beauty were endless.
Zheng Changming likes to paint and is good at painting, and after receiving this appreciation, he drew a few small portraits of Mr. Dongzhu and gave them to Shen Ge, "Brother Fool will also send people around to find Mr. 's whereabouts." Brother Fool settled in Hongchang Inn, where is Brother Shen Xian? With the news, we can communicate with each other."
Shen Ge carefully put away the portrait before replying, "The teahouse opened by the junior brother at the entrance of Nancheng Third Street will open on August 14, and Brother Zheng can go and sit in the future when he is free."
"Good! On the 14th of August, the foolish brother will go to the party."
After the two separated, Shen Ge took the small portrait painted by Zheng Changming to the workshop and engraved the portrait of Mr. Dongzhu.
On the appointed day, when Shen Ge went to get the woodcuts and portraits, he heard a group of people in the shop talking about the Lin family. At first, they could still hear what they were saying, but then it became more and more unbearable.
An obscene-looking man said, "Do you know why the Lin family didn't let the fairy-looking Lin girl show her face before, but after the flood, they didn't restrain her?"
"Why?" Everyone asked in unison.
The lewd man looked left and right, and said in a low voice, "I also heard from someone that when Miss Lin was in Wusha Town, she was ruined by mountain bandits!"
"Huh?!" Several people listening to the gossip exclaimed in unison, Shen Ge's brows furrowed, and his face was fierce.
"When people hear this, we will hear it too." The lewd man winked at everyone, "Hey, that mountain bandit is really a blessing......
"Isn't it......" Everyone understood, laughing***.
Shen Ge walked over and took out a handful of pumpkin seeds and put them on the table, pretending to be interested and asked, "Uncle, who did you listen to about this?"
West of Xuanzhou City, Zhao's backyard garden, in the hexagonal pavilion on the water.
Lin Ruyu sat next to Zhao Jinhuan eating refreshments, and found that Yu Shuqi and Song Xiuying, who were sitting opposite, were together, and looked at herself with strange and sympathetic eyes from time to time.
Lin Ruyu sighed secretly.
In this life, he rescued his mother and Ah Heng, and he didn't take the fake peace and dissipation from afar, but some things still can't be changed, such as the scene in front of him.
As the master, Zhao Jinhuan was unhappy, "What are the words of the two of you that you can't say generously? I have to talk to each other there, and at a young age, I will be like a long-tongued woman." ….
Which little girl can stand being scolded as a long-tongued woman, Song Xiuying, the daughter of the medicine merchant Song Tianxiang, tore the veil and said angrily, "Sister Jin Huan, what are these words? We have come to congratulate you today, and if you don't welcome it, we'll go."
You came in a hurry yourself, when I am rare? Zhao Jinhuan raised his sleeves and said neatly, "Slow down and don't send it."
"Is this girl willing to stay here and cause bad luck!" Song Xiuying glanced at Lin Ruyu meaningfully, turned around and walked out of the small pavilion.
Yu Shuqi, who stayed in place, moved her body awkwardly and whispered, "Sister Jin Huan, don't be angry......
"Angry with her? I can't do it." Zhao Jinhuan picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it to Lin Ruyu, "Jiaojiao likes it, so eat two more pieces."
Lin Ruyu thanked her and took the pastry.
Yu Shuqi glanced at Lin Ruyu cautiously, and quickly withdrew her gaze, her expression was exactly the same as in Lin Ruyu's memory. But this time, Lin Ruyu didn't give her a chance to speak, "Sister Shuqi said that she will be thirsty for a long time, let's have a cup of tea."
Yu Shuqi, who was choked by the words, picked up the teacup, wondering how Lin Ruyu still had the face to come out to meet people after such an incident.
Lin Ruyu hooked her lips and smiled. Look, isn't this different from what I remember?
Zhao Jinhuan asked Lin Ruyu about Fang's physical condition, "Is your mother better?"
Lin Ruyu replied with a smile, "It's much better, but I still feel dizzy when I get up, and I still need to recuperate in the house for a while."
Although Zhao Jinhuan was also curious about the experience of the Lin family's mother and daughter last month, he didn't ask much, and only comforted, "Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other. You've passed the last month, and you'll be prosperous all the way. After these two days, I will go to your aunt."
Lin Ruyu smiled narrowly, "My sister should embroider the wedding dress first, and when I ask my mother to add makeup to my sister in a few days, I will be able to see it."
Zhao Jinhuan is married to the Ning family in Suzhou next month. Due to the distance between the two places, the wedding procession had to depart several days in advance. Therefore, after the Zhao family is busy with their daughter's wedding ceremony today, they will be in full swing to prepare for the wedding.
In the last life, Lin Ruyu was ridiculed and insulted by Zhao Xiuying and others in public, and after leaving the Zhao family crying, she never had the opportunity to see this girlfriend again.
Zhao Jinhuan hugged her good sister and wailed, "Jiaojiao, I don't want to marry ......."
Yu Shuqi covered her mouth and smiled, "If my sister doesn't marry, my cousin will cry."
The Suzhou Ning family is Yu Shuqi's maternal grandfather's family, and the Zhao Ning family is the matchmaker made by Yu Shuqi's mother Ning.
Hearing Yu Shuqi mention her fiancé, Zhao Jinhuan blushed with shame, which made Lin Ruyu and Yu Shuqi laugh constantly.
Yuying quickly stepped into the pavilion and whispered behind Lin Ruyu, "Girl, the second girl and Miss Song have quarreled."
Before Lin Ruyu could speak, Zhao Jinhuan stood up, "She is not here to be a long-tongued woman, she has changed places to make trouble, Jiaojiao will come with me!"
Yu Shuqi walked two steps quickly and followed Lin Ruyu's side, and whispered, "Sister Ruyu, have you heard some gossip outside......
"Why should I listen to gossip?" Lin Ruyu just didn't want her to open her mouth and suffocate her!
Yu Shuqi......
Under the crape myrtle tree in full bloom in the garden, ten-year-old Lin Rumei and sixteen-year-old Song Xiuying glared angrily.
This is something that did not happen in the previous life, Lin Ruyu smiled warmly, and saw Zhang Yuzhen step forward and grabbed Lin Rumei's arm, so as to drag her down, causing the onlookers to laugh.
Zhang Yuzhen hugged Lin Rumei and said disgustedly, "Rumei, don't make trouble, if you continue to make trouble, you will be said that our Lin family girl doesn't understand the rules and is not educated."
"Didn't my cousin forget what his last name was?" Lin Ruyu stepped forward and pushed Zhang Yuzhen away, held the second sister and asked in a low voice, "Are you holding your feet?"
When Lin Rumei saw her sister coming, she didn't cry, "Sister, they make up bad things about you, talk about you, talk about you......
"Huh!" Seeing that Lin Rumei couldn't speak, Song Xiuying sneered, and her heart was very happy.
Let you count my family's food, and let me make my father disgrace in front of everyone! What if you Lin Ruyu are beautiful, now that you have become a, no one wants it!
Zhao Jinhuan sank his face, "Song Xiuying, are you finished?"
"I didn't say it, but go out and listen, and the streets will be full of people." Song so-young gloated.
