Chapter 175: Uninvited Guest
By the end of the day, almost everyone had eaten enough to eat. And Rhubarb was still sleeping in a corner of Beiyuan, snoring, and he didn't know what he was dreaming about, so he kept a mouthful.
After a while, Rhubarb woke up, wagged his tail and sniffed the smell, and saw that the magpie was closing the stall, and the dog's legs jumped three feet high, and he barked non-stop.
"Miss, what should I do?" the magpie cried and laughed, "the meat has been eaten." But shouldn't dogs eat bones? There's a lot of them on the ground, so why don't you eat rhubarb?"
Rhubarb can understand human words, and when he heard Xie Changyu eat and didn't call him, he let out a snort that was higher than the other from his throat, grinning and wanting to pull Xie Changyu's trouser legs, but the dog's nose shrugged but smelled the smell of fear to the dog.
Jiang Yan looked at the fried yellow dog condescendingly, knowing that this rhubarb was already afraid of him. That's great, when you want to tame an animal, the first thing you have to do is make the animal afraid of people.
Xie Changyu glanced sideways at the man's cold eyebrows, laughed in his heart, and immediately squatted down and grabbed the rhubarb's dog head: "Stinky boy, it's obvious that you are too sleepy to wake up." But if you miss this time, there will be a next time! Look, there are still some bones on the ground! If you don't dislike it, you can eat it!"
Uncle Ben dislikes it! If the dog could speak, Rhubarb would definitely speak disdainfully! Unfortunately, no matter how much the dog danced, it had no effect except to cause people to laugh.
Xie Changyu folded his arms and stopped in place and sighed: "The owner of rhubarb should be a rich man! You see that this guy has a wide heart and a fat body, is delicious and lazy, and even dislikes bones~"
"I have sent someone to check, the results have not come out yet, but no outsiders have brought the yellow dog into the city recently, presumably the owner of this dog is a person from Shengjing City, and it is either rich or expensive. ”
"Let's find it as soon as possible. Xie Changyu thought that she would no longer stay in Shengjing as a concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion after tomorrow, and she would no longer be able to find her master, she was afraid that Jiang Yan would kick Rhubarb out of the Prime Minister's Mansion with a cold-blooded and ruthless step.
Not long after the words fell, someone came in to report: "Master, the eldest lady of the Cui family outside the door asks to see you." ”
It's so late, what is Cui Zhiyue doing here? Xie Changyu frowned, feeling that something was wrong, and lowered his eyes to look at the rhubarb who was buried in gnawing bones, and was shocked that the rhubarb actually ran out of Cui's mansion!
"Don't worry, let's go out and have a look. Jiang Yan noticed a trace of melancholy in Xie Changyu's eyes, and he paid attention to it in his heart. If it is really the dog raised by the Cui family, I am afraid it will not be easy to come over.
......
In the inner hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cui Zhiyue sat quietly in the guest seat with a teapot and waited, she smiled at any time, giving people a sense of upright and elegant intimacy, and the only personal maid Qing'er she brought over stood beside her tightly, her eyes were a little hollow.
The servant handed over the stove and said respectfully: "Miss Cui, the weather is cold, it is much better to hold the stove." Wait, Xiangye and Mrs. will be here soon. ”
Cui Zhiyue's smiling starry eyes froze, and she asked, "'Madam'?
“...... Yes. The person who poured the tea and water was also stunned, and after realizing it, he felt that there was no problem with what Miss Cui asked, after all, Mrs. was indeed married as a concubine, and if it was in other mansions, she would be called aunt according to the rules.
"I see. ”
Cui Zhiyue twisted four words in her mouth, and a trace of murderous intent appeared in her eyes. This slut's status in the Prime Minister's Mansion is not low, she should have found out a long time ago, but she just listened to it but didn't believe it. From this point of view, if Brother Yan really has feelings for this woman, then there is no deviation in the choice she spent a lot of money on.
Just thinking about it, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, and before anyone arrived, Xie Changyu's voice came in first: "Rare guest, I don't know what Miss Cui is here for!"
The sound fell, and Xie Changyu walked in holding Jiang Yan's arm. The two exchanged glances, and this look of concubine was nothing more than adding to Cui Zhiyue's chest.
Cui Zhiyue immediately put down the teacup and got up to greet him: "Brother Yan, I'm sorry to disturb you and Sister Changyu so late." She said, her eyelashes trembled slightly, not only dignified but also showing the embarrassed charm of her daughter's family.
It's a pity that Cui Zhiyue's kung fu can hook other men into immortals, but it is useless for Jiang Yan.
"Miss Cui, please be seated. Jiang Yan nodded slightly, his tone detached and polite. Carrying Xie Changyu to sit on the main seat above, it was as if Cui Zhiyue was an ordinary guest who came to visit.
Cui Zhiyue's face turned white, and she sat back for such a moment. is still a dignified and elegant Miss Cui. Xie Changyu also admired this a little, compared to Wen Chuhan, Cui Zhiyue was more calm, and she was a person who did great things, but it was a pity that she didn't use these qualities in the right place.
"Miss Cui," Xie Changyu smiled slightly, and asked slowly, "It's so late, what are you doing?" she got straight to the point, and she was polite. For the peerless white lotus like Cui Zhiyue, it is necessary to respond to the situation, depending on the situation. Whether it's straight or cooperative, it's a good move to see the move and win in one fell swoop!
The corners of Xuan Mo's mouth, who was guarding the door, twitched, and he covered his mouth and snickered. In this painting, the couple called 'Miss Cui' so smoothly, I don't know how Miss Cui herself would feel when she heard it.
In the inner hall, Cui Zhiyue slowly opened, but her eyes were looking at Jiang Yan: "In this way, recently, my father got a rare breed of dog, the dog is medium in size, the coat color is very yellow, and it is very smart and naughty, which is very loved by my father. Who knew that the next person didn't take care of it today, and the dog bit the cage open and ran out. Zhiyue sent someone to find out that Brother Yan had brought back a yellow-haired dog in the afternoon, so he came to confirm and help his father bring his pet back. ”
Sure enough, they came to ask for a dog!
Xie Changyu was unhappy, who raised it badly, and the bias was raised by the Cui family. But after all, the dog belongs to someone else, and she can't ask for it. "Magpie, bring the rhubarb!" Xie Changyu shouted out the door.
For a long time, there was no movement on the magpie's side, and for a while, there was a subtle embarrassment in the atmosphere of the inner hall.
Jiang Yan frowned and called Xuan Mo, and after a moment, Xuan Mo walked in with a smile: "Master, the big rhubarb can't be pulled in, lying on the ground as if it has taken root, and he won't go in if he is killed, and he will grin when he pulls it, and the magpie is still watching in the yard." ”
Xie Changyu raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiang Yan, his eyes seemed to be asking, what should I do! Jiang Yan pursed his lips, his eyes flashed, and he handed over the decision-making power to Xie Changyu.
"Miss Cui, let's go take a look together, maybe you can pull it. Xie Changyu blinked, and his face looked like I believed in you.
"Good. I'll try. Cui Zhiyue replied softly, got up and walked out of the door. Xie Changyu and Jiang Yan followed behind to see if Rhubarb recognized Cui Zhiyue.
"Why don't I feel right?" Xie Changyu whispered in Jiang Yan's ear: "The dog's nose is very smart, the dog who recognized the owner has already arrived with its tail wagging, Rhubarb is so smart, there must be a reason why it doesn't want to see Cui Zhiyue." ”
