412 Secretly worried
Time seemed to stand still, Chu Liangrao's slightly sideways face embroidered with 'flowers' bathed in the morning light, bright eyes and bright teeth, just like the person in the painting.
But unfortunately, someone broke this tranquility, and the next person reported: "County Lord, there is a person outside the 'door' who claims to be from the Lantern Festival Shop, and asks to see the county horse." ”
I just ate the Lantern Festival yesterday, Chu Liangrao naturally had an impression, but I didn't know what this person meant by coming, thinking about it, she said: "Let him wait in the side hall, Mother Du, you go and ask him what is the matter." If he refuses to speak, then that's it. With that, she continued her embroidery work and did not stop.
Du's mother listened to the order, went to pick up the guests, and saw that although the person who came was a businessman, he had a humble attitude, and he didn't show his face at the moment, she said calmly: "Junma has something to go out, if you don't dislike it, you might as well tell your mother if you have anything to say." ”
Seeing that Du's mother didn't seem to be doing anything, she hesitated for a moment, and the shopkeeper said: "The villain is really desperate, and I hope that my mother will pass it on on my behalf." ”
"It's nature." Mother Du nodded.
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, she also heard the seriousness of the matter, her face changed slightly, and said: "This matter is very important, but I am afraid that the horse will also ...... You also know that Junma is not an official now. ”
A hint of loss flashed across his face, and the shopkeeper said, "If so...... The villain also accepted his fate. ”
Seeing him like this, Du's mother was moved with compassion, and she said, "Mom will tell you." ”
"Thank you, Mom." The shopkeeper thanked him from the bottom of his heart, and then said goodbye in accord.
And Du's mother entered the house, she pondered that the county lord should come up with an idea about this matter, so she told the purpose of the visitor.
In fact, this matter is not big, but it is not small, just because it is related to the three princes.
What kind of role the third prince is, Chu Liangrao knows best, so the trouble in this matter is indeed not something they can manage.
Speaking of which, the shopkeeper was unlucky, and it was easy to buy a shop with a fair price, but he didn't want to block the third prince's financial path.
The third prince wants to expand his territory, and he will not pay attention to these small merchants, and so far, he has given several ultimatums. If it weren't for the loss of face, I'm afraid that I would have found someone to smash the store a long time ago. Even so, the store's life is not easy.
This problem seems to be fine if he moves out, but unfortunately he has only 'paid' a year's rent, and he will not get any money if he moves out. And his business has just started, and he doesn't have much spare money at hand.
But it was clear that there was no other way but to move out.
The strong dragon can't overpower the ground snake, let alone their hard-working people.
After thinking about it, Chu Liangrao decided to wait for Huo Tainan to come back and discuss this matter.
Although she has a two-sided relationship with others, she is not familiar with each other after all, whether she wants to help or not depends on Huo Tainan's meaning.
And she also thought about it, and when she, a 'woman', came forward in this matter, it would inevitably make people mistakenly think that she was defending Huo Tainan.
Thinking like this, Chu Chaoyang's advice played a great role, and she also felt that she was too protective of Huo Tainan, which made him look more and more like a little white face, but in fact, Huo Tainan's ability was only higher than herself, so she decided to let it go.
Near noon, Mo Qing came to spread the word, saying that Huo Tainan and Master Wen were drinking and would not come back for dinner.
Chu Liangrao knew that these socializations were inevitable, so she had lunch to rest first.
When I woke up, Huo Tainan hadn't come back yet.
What kind of wine can be drunk for such a long time, Chu Liangrao was a little relieved, and wanted to send someone to ask, but she felt that it would hinder Huo Tainan's face.
After hesitating, Chu Liangrao thought of Chu Chaoyang's words again.
Immediately, she called someone and asked her to ask Huo Tainan if he wanted to come back.
At this end, Huo Tainan's table was drunk for three rounds, and everyone was a little drunk, and they talked to make their tongues bigger. Hearing that the county lord of Ning'an sent someone to come, they all stared at Huo Tainan with lively eyes, and some people said the opposite: "The county master is really a blessing." ”
Huo Tainan smiled, didn't go to his heart, stood up and said, "I'll go back when I go down." ”
"Master Junma, don't go home as soon as your ears are soft, this wine hasn't been drunk yet!" One of them coaxed.
Then the others laughed.
The bustle inside made the people waiting outside hear it clearly, and when he learned that Huo Tainan couldn't leave, he consciously went back to the house.
Hearing that Huo Tainan seemed to be drinking with many people and didn't come back for dinner, Chu Liangrao felt uncomfortable, but she still endured it.
Three meals in a day are used by one person, although there have been before, but suddenly like this, Chu Liangrao is still a little unaccustomed.
Seeing that Chu Liangrao's appetite was not good, Mother Du persuaded with kind words: "The county horses must be running for official business, and the county lord doesn't need to worry." ”
"Mom, I know." Chu Liangrao said, "I'll practice calligraphy." ”
Du's mother didn't quarrel with her, and only left the cloves to serve the 'service' pen and ink.
Chu Liangrao practiced a few big characters, the depression in her heart decreased slightly, she took out the calligraphy and copied it, and then showed it to Lilac: "How is it?" ”
Ding Xiang was slightly stunned, and then said: "The county lord's handwriting is really getting better and better." ”
"Oh?" Chu Liangrao asked with a light smile, "You haven't even seen it, how do you know if it's good?" ”
Lilac blushed and said, "The slave has something to see." ”
"The heart is no longer here, what do you think?" Chu Liangrao quipped, "I'm afraid it's the flying man, oops, how can this be done, this is not married yet, that's all." ”
"County Lord......" Lilac lowered her head shyly, "don't talk about slaves." ”
"What? Don't let people say it yet? Chu Liangrao said, "Hey, it's really spilled water." ”
Lilac couldn't help but laugh and said, "County Lord, you didn't let the slave spill it out at the beginning. ”
"Blame me?" Chu Liangrao asked.
"How dare a slave." Ding Xiang said, picked up Chu Liangrao's words and looked at them, and then praised, "County Lord, it's not a slave talking nonsense, your handwriting is so good, it looks like it was printed in the post." ”
"Flim Flam." Chu Liangrao smiled and said, "You haven't held a pen for some time, come, see if you can push it." As she spoke, she handed the pen to Lilac.
After hesitating for a moment, Lilac took the pen with both hands, dipped the pen in ink, and wrote a post carefully.
I have to say that the hairpin 'flower' of the clove is also very well written, neat and beautiful, even ordinary ladies rarely can practice such words. Chu Liangrao was slightly surprised and asked, "You haven't practiced these days, and you can still write so well, this is the ability." "The county lord laughed, and the slave maid also practiced in the 'time' on weekdays." Lilac said, "But the slave didn't use pen and ink, just dipped her chopsticks in water......
