Chapter 38: I don't know what to say
Geng Xingshuang looked at Ma San, who was sweating profusely and still checking the horses, and had some guesses in his heart, and was about to say two words to deal with the scene, when Mrs. Yang and Yang Fu had already walked over quickly, and on the other side, Yang Tianbi, the second master of Yang, Jiang Xuefu's brother Jiang Lianbu, and several male guests walked over briskly from the other side.
Jiang Lianbu cared about his sister, looked Jiang Xuefu up and down, and was relieved to see that he was indeed not injured.
Mrs. Yang took Geng Xingshuang's hand and asked them if they were scared, Geng Xingshuang and the two said they were fine, and Geng Xingshuang briefly told the story again.
"Sister Shuang'er, Sister Chen'er, and Miss Jiang, this happened suddenly, your little girl's family must be frightened, let's go to the inner courtyard to rest for a while, and then let the doctor take the pulse, and then let the family carriage send you back." Mrs. Yang told Master Yang again.
"Big brother, I want to go back." Jiang Xuefu didn't look at Master Yang and Mrs. Yang, and walked directly at Jiang Lian.
Without waiting for Jiang Lianbu to react, she continued: "Sister Shuang and Sister Chen will also go back with me." ”
Jiang Lianbu raised his forehead, and wanted to say sister, it's good for you to make your own decisions, how can you still make decisions for others.
However, although he complained about his sister in his heart, Jiang Lianbu's eyes immediately looked at Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen.
Although he is in the outer courtyard today, but because his sister is different from the characteristics of ordinary girls' families, he will bring people out today, naturally he is always worried, if something goes wrong, not to mention that his father and mother will scold him, he will regret that he has to coax people out today.
So when I learned that my sister was not only not like before, but was left alone because she couldn't integrate into the girls' social circle today, and even left early, but made two friends, enjoyed flowers and ate together, and finally didn't take her own carriage, but took a new friend's carriage to let the family send her home, Jiang Lianbu didn't know how happy she was.
He was afraid that because his sister made decisions for the two new friends without authorization, people would think that she was rude and no longer recognized her as a friend.
"Thank you for your concern, although this matter is dangerous today, but fortunately, Sister Jiang is here, my sixth sister and I were not injured except for some fright, so we won't go in to bother anymore, besides, with Sister Jiang with us, we will feel more at ease on the way back."
Geng Xingshuang politely rejected Mrs. Yang's proposal, even though her chest still hurt a little, she didn't want to stay in the Yang family anymore.
The two sides said a few polite words to each other, and finally saw that Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen really insisted on leaving, so Mrs. Yang reluctantly let them go, and sent the Yang family carriage to send them.
"Uncle and aunt, just use our carriage." Jiang Lian trail.
"Brother Jiang, if I guessed correctly, your brother and sister came to visit today and only drove a carriage, how are you going to go back? Do you still want to go back in a carriage with the two girls of the Geng family? We all know that you have good intentions, but good intentions can also do bad things, and you can think more about it before you speak in the future, so as not to misunderstand, which not only affects the reputation of the two girls, but also makes people misunderstand that you are a disciple, which is really wronged. ”
At this time, suddenly a voice raised his voice and said, the tone was both like a joke and a description of Jiang Lianbu's inconsiderate explanation, which was said from the position of Jiang Lianbu's relatives and friends.
But Geng Xingshuang felt that this was too abrupt, because she didn't think of the issue of reputation from Jiang Lianbu's previous proposal at all, she knew that the Jiang family brothers and sisters only had one carriage, but even if she was a person like Jiang Lianbu who was only meeting for the first time, she would never misunderstand that Jiang Lianbu would ride in a carriage with them.
She is a person who meets for the first time and doesn't think so, looking at the looks of other people around her, there is no misunderstanding because of Jiang Lianbu's words, so if the person who suddenly appeared is really Jiang Lianbu's relatives and friends, how can there be such a misunderstanding, and even went to great lengths to say such a specious thing in a ridiculous and explaining tone in front of the public.
Geng Xingshuang glanced at the person who spoke.
The figure is thin and tall, or should I say thin like a hemp stalk, thin and thin, with a yellowish face, many spots on the cheeks, light and short eyebrows, small eyes, a wide nose, sparse and disorganized teeth when speaking, wearing a straight body in ginger, with an eggplant purple skull tied around his waist, and a turquoise belt hook, at this time this person is looking at Jiang Lianbu with a smile.
Just looking at this expression, Geng Xingshuang knew that this person was definitely not Jiang Lianbu's relatives and friends, not to mention an enemy, at least a person who looked at Jiang Lianbu unpleasantly, and this was deliberately to find fault.
Jiang Lianbu didn't seem to expect someone to say such a thing suddenly, he didn't answer first, and the first thing he did was to pull his sister to stop her from doing what she was going to do next.
Fortunately, he stopped it in time, otherwise the thin hemp pole would have gone into the pond to take a bubble bath in the next moment.
"Brother Cheng, you are too worried, I am not such a rude person, my sister and the two girls of the Geng family took our carriage back, but the carriage of the Geng family is still here, and I will help the coachman to send the carriage back to Bofu together.
The man surnamed Cheng, who was really rugged, heard this, his face stiffened, and he looked at Ma San, who had already finished checking the horses and was standing with his head down.
"According to me, the coachman should have been beaten to death with a stick, and the trouble of the day was caused by his improper handling of the carriage, and it disturbed two ...... Three girls. ”
After speaking, he ignored Ma San, whose face turned pale and knelt down, looked at Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen, and his eyes roamed over the faces of Geng Xingshuang and the others, "Fortunately, Miss Geng has a great life, so it's okay." ”
Geng Xingchen frowned, but Geng Xingshuang directly ignored it and said to Ma San: "Third Uncle Ma, do you know why this horse is crazy now?" ”
"Yes, yes." Ma San immediately replied, everyone's eyes looked at Ma San, Ma San was sweating profusely, and said ashamedly: "It's the horse's palm that is broken." ”
"Why is it broken?"
"Yes...... It may be that he sent the eldest young master to Licai Academy before and walked the mountain road, and it may have been worn out at that time, but it was not broken at that time, and it was just in time for today, the sixth girl, the seventh girl, it was me, the little one's negligence, and there was no inspection before going out, which caused today's incident, and the little one made amends to the two girls, please forgive the girls! ”
As he spoke, he touched the ground with his head and kowtowed a few times in a row.
"Okay, Third Uncle Ma, this matter is indeed your negligence, we will truthfully report to our grandmother and second uncle when we go back, but this is someone else's house, if you break your head and stain the ground, you have to stay and help people wash the floor, this crime is one more crime."
Geng Xingshuang's voice was warm and flat, as if he was appeasing the subordinates in the family, but what he said was too ridiculous, but listening to Ma San's ears, for some reason, it made his back cold.
