"The adults have only arrived in Yancheng, and the affairs are busy, and the officials originally wanted to let the adults know after a few days, and then inform the adults when they are free."

"So, they're looking for outsiders?"

Liu Shoutian: "Yes, outsiders have no helpers in the local area, and they lose the customs clearance documents to verify their identity, and they are also indefensible when they are falsely accused. ”

"It's really ......" Su Ruhe smiled angrily and ordered: "Notify this woman's family to come to the palace for trial tomorrow, this bad habit can exist in Yancheng for so long, you are really 'indispensable'." ’”

The ridicule of the last four words made the officials present embarrassed.

Su Ruhe led Nie Siran back to the Taishou Mansion.

"The guest room has been prepared, Nie Gongzi is tired today, let's rest early." He led the people to the courtyard door, and turned to leave, carrying the lantern.

Nie Siran called out to him, "Lord Su is not curious, why is he in Yancheng?" ”

Su Ruhe turned around, "Nie Gongzi has traveled all over the world, and it is not surprising that he appears here. ”

Nie Siran smiled, "No, I'm here to find you." ”

"Looking for me?" Under the moonlight, Su Ruhe's eyes were as surprised as a streamer.

"Yes," Nie Siran stepped forward and stood in front of him, "Someone sneaked away without saying hello, what should I say about this account?" ”

Su Ruhe's toes picked at the ground in his boots, and the embarrassment spread to his heart, and he was speechless for a while.

"I'll go to Wutong Lane to find you, your house is empty like a thief, the grandma next door said that you went to Yancheng, I still don't believe it, Lord Xiaosu, you can run."

Su Ruhe originally thought that after the night of the Qiqiao Festival, he and Nie Siran would not have any intersection, and this person did not appear in front of him again.

He didn't know what Nie Siran was going to do with him.

Nie Siran stared at him, "You must be thinking in your heart, why am I still looking for you." ”

"Actually, there is no special reason, it is rare to meet a person who fits his eyes for so many years, and he wants to be good to him, but he doesn't appreciate it, and he doesn't chase after him to ask clearly, there will always be a pimple in his heart, Lord Su said, right?"

"I always thought ......" Su Ruhe looked away, "You hate me." ”

"It's annoying."

Su Ruhe pursed her lips and stared at the weeds on the side of the road without speaking.

"It's not funny at all, I've been chasing thousands of miles, isn't it obvious enough?"

"Master Xiao Su, where do you want to run next?" Nie Siran's eyes narrowed.

Su Ruhe clenched the bamboo pole in his hand, the lantern was blown from side to side by the wind, he stabilized his mind and said, "I didn't run away, I was ordered to come to Yancheng to work." ”

"According to your merits, it should be upward, not out of tune, so this is your own initiative."

Nie Siran was so smart that he figured everything out almost on the day Su Ruhe left Beijing.

"Besides, you don't plan to go back to Yejing at all, am I right?"

Su Ruhe was not surprised that he could guess that until now, concealment would have no effect, he admitted it.

Nie Siran stared at his face, he hadn't seen him for a few months, he was thinner than when he saw him in Yejing before, a face that was not big, and now he was so thin that his cheeks were almost sunken.

"Su Ruhe, it's time for me to ask you."

Su Ruhe was stunned, "What? ”

"Do you hate me that much?"

The author has something to say:

Chapter 177: Nie Siran x Su Ruhe

Su Ruhe went out early and returned late for five consecutive days.

I don't know if I don't check, but if I check it, there are really a lot of bad customs in Yancheng.

He was so busy dealing with these bad habits that he couldn't even take care of three meals, tea and rice, and the housekeeper was anxious, and he couldn't persuade this young man who was well-dressed and fed.

Out of desperation, I had to turn to the noble son who temporarily borrowed the house.

It was raining that day, and when Su Ruhe returned home late at night, most of his clothes were wet, and he instructed the little servant to take the file and go straight to the study with a lantern.

He wiped the rain from his body casually, and just spread out the pen and paper, the closed study door was pushed open from the outside.

Su Ruhe thought it was the little guy who came back, but he didn't raise his head, "Are you here?" ”`

He was answered with a chuckle.

Su Ruhe's pen paused slightly, he raised his head and noticed the food box that Nie Siran was holding in his hand.

"Lord Xiao Su was so busy that he forgot to eat, so he had to come in person to remind the adults to eat." Nie Siran walked over and put the food box on the table.

Su Ruhe didn't feel hungry at first, but when he smelled the aroma of food, he felt hungry in his stomach.

"Youlao, has Gongzi Nie eaten?" Su Ruhe lifted the lid, he lowered his head and took out the dishes, not realizing that his attitude of talking to Nie Siran now became more familiar and natural.

Nie Siran: "Well, what have you been busy with lately?" ”

"It's just a matter of people's livelihood." Su Ruhe sat down to eat, his eating appearance was very quiet, but the speed was not slow.

"Tricky?"

"Fortunately, there are a lot of things and they are trivial, so it is more troublesome to deal with."

Nie Siran sat next to him, looking at his thin cheeks with his cheeks raised, "Is it worth it?" ”

"Huh?" After Su Ruhe drank the soup, when he raised his eyes and stared at it, his lips were moistened by the soup, and they were crystal clear.

"Is it worth it to be too guarded by one side, to be in charge of one party, to run around and work hard for these irrelevant people, and to do thankless work?" Nie Siran's tone was ordinary, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, and raised his hand to wipe the soup from the corner of Su Ruhe's mouth.

Su Ruhe was shocked and shocked, one for his words, and the other for his behavior.

Su Ruhe avoided that hand and was silent for a while, and after a while, he said, "This question, why don't Nie Gongzi ask Nie Xiang." ”

Nie Siran smiled, "It's different, I just want to know what you think." ”

Su Ruhe: "Everyone has their own path they want to take, since they have chosen that road, they will go on willingly, whether it is worth it or not, just understand it in their hearts." ”

The night was deep, as if giving people an opportunity to confide in their hearts, Nie Siran stared at the person in front of him, "Life is short, don't you waste a lot of time if you take mundane things to heart, why not live happily." ”

"I'm a layman, I don't have big ambitions, and I don't know what kind of life is the pleasure in Nie Gongzi's mouth."

Nie Siran waited for him to put down the bowl, handed over the handkerchief in his hand, and got up to help him clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

Su Ruhe got up and grabbed his arm, "Let it go, I'll clean it up." ”

"Master Mengsu will not give up, let me borrow food and live here, let me do this little thing." Nie Siran smiled and took his hand away, put the dishes back into the food box one by one, and looked back when he walked to the door, "I'll rest early after I'm done, although there are many things, it's not to be done in one day." ”

Su Ruhe watched him walk into the night, and his figure gradually drifted away.

Not long after, the little guy ran back, still holding a set of clothes in his hand.

"Didn't you go and get the file, how did you come back with your clothes?" Su Ruhe asked.

The little guy hurriedly explained, "The little one met Nie Gongzi halfway, he took the file away, saying that he wouldn't let you see it tonight, and he would return it to you tomorrow, as for the clothes, it was Nie Gongzi who instructed the little one to get them, and the adult's clothes were wet, so let's change them as soon as possible, the weather is cold now, don't catch a cold." ”

Su Ruhe listened to what he said, and couldn't help but look out of the door again.

Beneath the dome, the ink is faint.

*

Autumn goes to winter, and in a blink of an eye, Su Ruhe has been coming to Yancheng for two months.

Now everyone in Yancheng knows him and knows that he is a good official who works for the benefit of the people, and when they see him on the road, they will greet him warmly and invite him to eat and drink.

Not only that, the Nie Gongzi who came from Yejing is now inseparable from their Taishou Lord, and the relationship is very good, if Master Su is busy, they will go to Nie Gongzi if they have something.

The subordinates in the Taishou Mansion chatted, saying that Lord Liu was a false name, and Nie Gongzi was the real master of Master Su's side.

These words finally reached Su Ruhe's ears, and Su Ruhe laughed.

But when I thought about it, I was also quite surprised.

He didn't expect that Nie Siran would be able to stay here for so long.

It also helped him a lot.

Entering the wax moon, the streets and alleys are busy preparing for the New Year.

In the study, there was a charcoal fire in the corner of the wall, the window was slightly hidden, Su Ruhe looked at the gloomy sky outside the house in a daze, suddenly, he handed the file in his hand to Nie Siran, got up and walked out, "Take a look at this file, I'll go out." ”

Nie Siran got up and followed him to the door of the study, "It's time for dinner, where are you going?" ”

Su Ruhe had already called someone to prepare the car, and he said while changing his shoes: "I don't know what happened to the shed I ordered them to build a few days ago, so I'll go over and take a look while it's not dark yet." ”

Nie Siran grabbed his arm, "It's not too late to look at it tomorrow, it's not easy to walk when it's dark, and it's not safe to come back." ”

Su Ruhe was worried, "I see that the weather seems to be snowing, and the shed is reserved for soup kitchens, so there can't be a little mistake." ”

Seeing that he insisted on going this way, Nie Siran let go of his hand and began to change his shoes, "Then I'll go with you." ”

Su Ruhe stood outside the house, and he stopped: "It's just a trivial matter, there's no need for everyone to go, you stay in the study, I'll go back when I go." ”

Nie Siran sighed, the taste in his heart couldn't be said, and he still had a smile on his face, "These files are all secrets of Yancheng, and I shouldn't be able to read them, so I won't be able to read them, Ruhe, do you trust me too much?" ”

Su Ruhe's eyes were clear, he tilted his head slightly, his face was white and jade, "Nie Gongzi is frank and straightforward, I believe in you." ”

Not to mention how many times Nie Siran has helped himself in the past two months and how many troublesome things he has dealt with, even the life-saving grace of that night in Wutong Lane is enough to make him trust him.

Nie Siran was stunned by the words he blurted out.

When he came back to his senses, there was no trace of Su Ruhe in front of him.

"Childe, Master Su has already left, shall we still go?" The little guy who had been following Nie Siran came over and asked.

Nie Siran's footsteps lifted, and he fell back before he could take a step.

"Well, wait for him to come back, and tell the kitchen to heat the meal."

Nie Siran returned to the study, sat and continued to read the file, but his thoughts were not at all the same as before, and he couldn't concentrate at all.
