Thirty-two courtyards, No. 16 courtyards.

Zhong Yanfei landed in the courtyard.

The two little maids hurriedly bowed: "I've seen the master!" ”

Zhong Yan bowed his head, swept his senses, and walked straight inside, until he reached the pavilion in the backyard, and saw Li Jingqiu sitting at the stone table in a daze.

The black hair is like a waterfall, and a light blue tunic dress highlights the delicate figure, and the delicate side face seems to have a hint of grievance in the night.

The most eye-catching thing is naturally the proud and fierce posture, which is better than the blue, surpassing his mother and becoming the well-deserved first in Zhongfu.

It's really a peak!

"How's the body? Can I check it for you? ”

Li Jingqiu was startled, and hurriedly stood up and bowed: "Concubine, concubine has seen her husband!" Xie Fujun is concerned, and there is no big problem. ”

Zhong Yan nodded and said, "Blame me for the events of that day, I said before, you can choose freely, it's not too late." ”

Although they are in the same house, the two don't have much time to really get in touch.

When he was in Wutong Lane, the other party went to the back garden of No. 10 Courtyard every day to practice martial arts, and he saw many times, but he didn't talk too much.

Zhong Yan watched her grow up, although Li Henian had a trust, but subconsciously, he still respected the other party's wishes and thoughts, so he did not have any intimate behavior with her, and the marriage has been delayed.

"Do you have a plan in mind? Travelling? Or will I help you find a family for your father, or will you choose it yourself? ”

Li Jingqiu looked up, lowered his lips again, and pursed his lips in silence.

"Don't have a psychological burden, no matter what you decide, I will support you, Li family, I promised your father that I would take care of it, your own affairs, think about it yourself."

After speaking, Zhong Yan turned around.

"But I like you!" Li Jingqiu suddenly spoke.

Zhong Yan turned his head suddenly, only to see that her eyes were shining.

Li Jingqiu took a step forward, tears slipped down, bit his lip hard, and said, "I just want to hear your own explanation, after all these days, you have never come to see me, are you willing to marry me just because of my father's dying entrustment?" ”

Zhong Yan was stunned, she didn't expect that she, who has always been shy and quiet and weak, would have such words.

"I know that I'm not as good as the other sisters in the house, not good enough, but I've been working hard, and I hope to share your worries in the future."

"Are you going to drive me away now? Ever since I officially moved into Zhongfu, I have regarded myself as your wife. ”

"You said I was still young, I could wait, but how long has it been now, and you have never talked to me!"

Zhong Yan sighed in his heart, and stepped forward to reach out and wipe his tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Silly girl, you think too much, you are very good, if you want, I will treat you sincerely."

Li Jingqiu threw herself into his arms, crying loudly, venting his emotions in his heart for many days.

Long.

After Zhong Yan's comfort.

Li Jingqiu wiped the corners of his eyes, stood up straight, and bowed down shamefully and apologetically: "The concubine is rude, please forgive the husband, the husband is busy with affairs, and the concubine is ignorant and has such a demand." ”

Zhong Yan raised his hand and rubbed his cheek, and said with a smile: "I'll come more often, rest early." ”

"Yes, congratulations to my husband."

Watching the figure fly into the sky and disappear, Li Jingqiu pursed his lips, a little lost.

Not much.

As soon as Li Jingqiu returned to the bedroom, Liu Ziying came in a hurry, and wanted to ask a question, but when she saw her daughter's eyes red, she obviously cried.

When the words came to her mouth, she held back her words, and then embarrassment appeared on her face, and she blushed and said ashamedly: "It's my mother, I promise, I won't have a private relationship with my uncle in the future." ”

Li Jingqiu looked at his mother and said, "If he takes the initiative to find you, can you refuse?" ”

Liu Ziying was choked up, and her eyes dodged and she didn't dare to look at each other.

Li Jingqiu said: "The husband has been here. ”

Liu Ziying was stunned for a moment, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly grabbed her daughter's hand: "You didn't say anything, did you?" You are crying, is it your uncle who scolds you? ”

Li Jingqiu shook his head and said, "Mother, it's not too early." ”

"Then rest early."

Liu Ziying pulled an unnatural smile at the corner of her mouth, pressed her daughter's shoulder, and turned to leave, bitter in her heart.

Behind him, Li Jingqiu said again: "Mother, I haven't slept with you for a long time, why don't I live here tonight, my daughter wants to talk to you." ”

Liu Ziying's nose was sour, and she turned around and smiled: "Okay!" ”

……

Next.

In the morning.

Jong-yeon took a horse-drawn carriage to the Eastern District.

Also accompanied by Li Jingqiu and Gu Baiyu.

The former can be said to be extremely happy in his heart, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth all the time, and his beautiful eyes are bright and bright.

Since she moved to Cangbao Street, because it was inconvenient for Jianghuan to leave the house, she has accompanied her, and she has not left the gate of the mansion until now.

Gu Baiyu reported on the recent situation in the Colosseum along the way.

Last month, the total profit of the entire Colosseum was equivalent to more than 9,000 lower-grade spirit stones, and Zhongfu was divided into three percent, and it was possible to get nearly three thousand.

The reason why I say 'value is equivalent to' is because most of the income is from cultivation resources other than spirit stones: pills, spirit grass, prayer beads, and so on.

Among them, the number of prayer beads is the largest.

Mortal customers rarely have the opportunity to obtain resources used by monks such as spirit stones, and can only use the prayer beads that can be bought for two silver.

And the monk naturally prefers to keep the spirit stone.

The Colosseum sits in the village, and all the resources available to the monks can be used as bets, so that there are all kinds of things received.

As for order and security, there have been no provocations and disturbances for the time being.

The Colosseum's Hakka Mansion also has a component, and many monks in the Colosseum can share the money, which is much faster and easier than hunting, escorting and other work to earn money.

Naturally, everyone is doing a good job of guarding, and whoever dares to make trouble will attack them in groups.

And Qingyang City, the Keqing Mansion is the force with the largest number of people and the strongest comprehensive strength, and ordinary people dare to make trouble rashly.

"However, the owner has almost 1,500 yuan in arrears, and if he loses the gamble, he doesn't have enough money to pay, almost all of them are from the late monks, and they should be deliberate, trying to empty the gloves of the white wolf."

"What did Master Bai say?"

"Master Bai said that we don't care about it for now, next year the Colosseum will probably not have our share, there is an IOU, and it will be left to the people behind to solve it."

Zhong Yan smiled.

I got to the gate of the Colosseum and got out of the carriage.

A handsome man with a gloomy face walked in front of him, but it was Meng Yuliang, a famous 'friend of women' in Qingyang City.

"Master Zhong! How do you have time to come here today? ”

Meng Yuliang greeted with a smiling face.

Zhong Yan said with a smile: "Take a look by the way, how lucky is Meng Daoyou today?" ”

"Hey, don't mention it, it's been moldy for a month, and the pants are about to be lost!"

"Feng Shui takes turns, and you will be lucky next time."

Chatted a few words apart.

Seeing the crowd pouring out at the door, Zhong Yan and the three of them entered through the inner passage of the side door.

Gu Baiyu said: "The owner, Meng Daoyou also owes the debt, twenty yuan, but he borrowed the spirit stone from our Colosseum, lost the bet with other monks, and every time he will pay it back within the time limit of calculating the interest, the integrity is good." ”

If there is a gamble, it is natural to put usury.

Only the principal will be repaid within ten days, and interest will be calculated if it exceeds it.

After a pause, Gu Baiyu's face was a little strange and said, "I heard that he owes a lot of debts in the city, all of which were borrowed from female monks, and he also asked female warriors to borrow a lot of prayer beads." ”

Li Jingqiu, who was following alongside, blinked and said loudly: "The concubine has also heard of him, and he can ask for a spirit stone from the woman in the Qinglou of Fang City." ”

Hearing it again, Zhong Yan laughed again, sighed secretly, and asked Gu Baiyu: "He asked if you have borrowed it?" ”

The corners of Gu Baiyu's mouth twitched, and he pursed his thin lips and said, "After asking a few times, I asked him to find Master Bai and borrow it from the Colosseum." ”

Zhong Yan became interested: "Let's hear it, how did he lobby?" ”

"Just pick good words, praise people are full of fanciful praise, but it is quite useful for people to listen to, and he is especially good at observing people's expressions and penetrating people's hearts, and comparing the parties with other women."

"For example, when he borrowed money from me last time, he compared me with Sister Qingyao, and he didn't say that Sister Qingyao was bad, he said that I was better than Sister Qingyao......"

"But he is well-informed, knows a lot of strange things, and says that he has been to Chu and Ye countries, and he has said it well, but he doesn't know whether it's true or not."
