Chapter 17: Once you think you're smart
Seeing Zhu Changhao reluctantly walking back around the picture screen, Jiang Shu arched his hand over there with some gratitude: "Thank you brother Taiwan for your help, I don't know where the house is, I will return it another day." ”
"No need," replied the voice, "there is no need to take it to heart for thirty taels of silver, and if there is a place where the girl's help is needed in the future, please make it convenient." ”
"In that case, Fourth Sister, let's go quickly." Without waiting for Jiang Shu to think about it, Ye Chi raised his hand and pulled up her sleeve and ran outside.
"Third brother, you said that you need her help in the future, it won't be that you plan to go to the Ye family one day to withdraw from the marriage, let her not refuse, right?"
Through the gap in the screen, watching the two walk away, Zhu Changhao asked Zhu Changxun, who was holding a wine glass shallow across from him, with a curious expression.
Zhu Changxun stared slightly, and asked instead of answering: "Why don't you say that I plan for her to persuade Ye Xianggao to stand on my side?" ”
"The third brother just said, with Ye Xianggao's old and stubborn character, it is more likely that through this marriage, Ye Jiangshu will find a way to persuade you to go to Luoyang to become a vassal."
Zhu Changhao poured himself a glass of wine, raised it to him, and said confidently.
Zhu Changxun gently put down the wine glass in his hand, and raised his thin lips slightly: "Chang Hao, your advantage is that you are smart, and your disadvantage is that you are too smart, once you are smart, you will look a little stupid." ”
This moist and harmless voice made Zhu Changhao feel a chill to his bones again, and hurriedly said, "Just because I didn't say anything." ”
Yunxiang Building is outside the street where people come and go.
Jiang Shu was pulled downstairs by Ye Chi in one breath, and finally stopped, thinking of what the man said just now, a trace of doubt rose in his heart.
He said that if he needed her help in the future, let her do it conveniently, but he didn't even know what she looked like, what did he need her help with?
Not right-
Jiang Shu suddenly thought of the gaze that made her uneasy just now, the blue-robed man she had observed and mocked Ye Chiwan just now, that kind of gaze was definitely not something that his cynical character could have, could it be that person?
If this is the case, could it be that he already knows the identity of the daughter of the first assistant of his cabinet, or rather, he knows the original Ye Jiangshu......
"Alas! I don't have a penny, I can't do anything, and it seems that I can only go home. Ye Chiwan's sigh full of regret interrupted Jiang Shu's thoughts.
Jiang Shu didn't want to bother speculating about that matter any longer, so he gathered his mind and said with a smile: "In that case, let's go." ”
The two of them returned the way they came, and walked to their carriage that stopped at Chongwen Gate Street inside the city gate. Ye Chi lifted the curtain and was about to get into the car, when suddenly, her eyes lit up.
"Yikes! It's not my purse! ”
Jiang Shu followed her gaze, but saw that at the bottom of the wooden and smooth carriage, a bulging blue brocade money bag was lying there quietly.
Ye Xiwan stretched out his hand to pick up the money bag, shook it vigorously, and said excitedly: "It's good now, I can finally buy Heifeng back!" ”
"You like that so much?" Jiang Shu asked casually.
"Yes, Fourth Sister, if you see it, you will definitely like it. Let's go to the overpass! ”
Ye Chiwan said, pulling up Jiang Shu and about to run.
"Wait," Jiang Shu raised his hand to stop her, "I think, let's go to Yunxiang Mansion first and pay back the thirty taels of silver we owe to others." ”
