Chapter 20 The Beauty of Hercyni
Seeing that he was about to collide, Meng Yu hurriedly reached out to hold the woman's two arms, and said in Beiyan's words: "It's reckless in Xia, the girl waits, I'll go back first." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Although the staircase can accommodate two people, if you want to go up and down at the same time, you have to pass closely, and it will be indecent for men and women, so Meng Yu went back upstairs first, and waited for the woman to come up before she wanted to go down again.
Who knew that the woman didn't go away after going upstairs, looked at Meng Yu, and said in a very rusty Guochao dialect: "Nihao, the people of the Shiguo Dynasty?" Meng Yu hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Zai Xia and his friends are indeed from the Guochao." ”
The woman smiled, revealing two dimples: "The man of the national dynasty is good-looking." ”
Before Meng Yu had time to blush, Hou Lingshan poked out his head from behind Meng Yu: "Girl, am I good-looking?"
The woman was startled, looked at Hou Lingshan intently, and suddenly burst out laughing, the laughter was as pleasant as a silver bell. After laughing, he said, "Ni, she looks like a monkey!"
Meng Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing, and Hou Lingshan pushed Meng Yu: "Let's go, what! ”
Meng Yu hurriedly arched his hand to the girl again, and followed Hou Lingshan downstairs.
Meng Yu instructed the shopkeeper that if the girl upstairs woke up and called someone, she would open the door for her.
The two walked to the street, and Hou Lingshan said, "What are you going to do?"
Meng Yu said, "Why are you going?"
Hou Ling was happy: "You really don't suffer a loss." ”
Meng Yu also smiled and held the sword in his hand: "Let's go with me." ”
Meng Yu walked towards the city center, and Hou Lingshan followed.
However, Meng Yu seemed to be aimless, but he was very interested in the appearance of the street. When I saw a stall, I stopped, I persuaded someone to quarrel, and when I saw my mother with her children, I also teased her, and I was annoyed by Hou Lingshan and stamped my feet and rubbed my hands there.
In the end, he couldn't help it, he grabbed Meng Yu: "I see that you came to Beiyan to become a mother, didn't you?" Ever since I met that Jiang girl, you're ...... this."
He didn't think of a good word for a moment.
Meng Yu pressed his fingers to his lips: "Calm down, I really don't know how you got your reputation on the rivers and lakes, it's too chivalrous." ”
Meng Yu stretched out his other hand. Hou Lingshan leaned over to take a look and sighed. Meng Yu actually had a paper scroll in his palm.
Hou Ling said suddenly: "Who gave it to you? When? Is it Miss Jiang? The woman who called me a monkey? Was that child disguised just now, but actually an old lady?"
Meng Yu said: "Don't use words to hide your cerebral paralysis. ”
Hou Lingshan raised his foot and kicked towards Meng Yu, and Meng Yu naturally dodged away.
Hou Ling smiled and said, "Count you kid smart, what time is the appointment? Let's go to the center of the city now." ”
Meng Yu hesitated: "Miss Jiang is afraid that she will wake up at this time, let's go back first." ”
Hou Ling said solemnly: "I remind you that once you are bound by a woman, it is likely to seriously affect your great cause of solving the case. ”
Meng Yu said: "What is the case to solve is still a great cause." Isn't it just a small task? Don't jump your head too fast. ”
The two returned to the inn, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw Jiang Luping sitting there by the window downstairs.
At this time, she didn't drink alcohol, but just asked for a bowl of mutton stewed noodles. Although she drinks boldly, she eats a bowl of noodles very gently. And the noodles look hot.
Meng Yu walked over and shouted, "Sister Jiang." ”
Jiang Luping raised her head, saw that it was Meng Yu, and said with a smile: "Brother Meng Xian, sit." ”
Meng Yu sat down as he said. Hou Lingshan also jumped over: "Hehe, and me." ”
Jiang Luping said with a smile: "Let the two of you laugh, I'll invite the two of you to dinner." As he spoke, he was going to call Xiao Er.
Hou Lingshan hurriedly said, "Miss Jiang doesn't have to be polite. We've had an appointment for the night, we've made an appointment, hehe. ”
Jiang Luping sighed, and said to Meng Yu and Hou Lingshan: "Then next time." I'm going to stay in Beiyan for a few more days. ”
Meng Yu said: "Which inn does my sister live in, Meng Yu will send you back in a while." ”
Jiang Luping smiled: "I actually live in this inn, I just need to go back to my own room for a while." ”
Meng Yu sighed: "How did my sister come to Beiyan?"
Jiang Luping looked at Hou Lingshan. Meng Yu understood, so he said to Hou Lingshan: "My sister and I want to talk about some old things, and my eldest brother will go back to make up for a while, and go to the appointment at night, it is very likely that he will meet a beautiful woman." ”
Hou Ling flashed in response and pulled Meng Yu aside: "I'll listen to you now, you have to let me see her knife." ”
Meng Yu patted his chest: "This is natural." ”
Hou Lingshan was still unwilling, and said, "Hey, you won't be interesting to her, right?" I think she's a good match for me, she's petite, and she's the same age. After saying that, he stroked his sideburns very charmingly.
Meng Yu's goosebumps were about to rise, and he whispered: "Get out of here, get out of here, there's nothing if you don't obey." ”
Hou Lingshan pretended to be dissatisfied and left.
Meng Yu returned to the table: "Sister, why don't you let Jiang Zhan come over for such a long journey, and let my sister work so hard as a woman?"
Jiang Luping sighed and said, "Brother Meng Xian, don't you understand. Since Jiang Zhan came to Xiyuzhou a few years ago, how sad he was when he saw your sister's situation. He didn't want to come here again, and besides, the eldest brother in the family had been in poor health since he was seriously injured seven years ago, and there were many things for Jiang Zhan to deal with. Since my family no longer cooperates with the imperial court, it is difficult to do much business. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to run this far. Aunt Meng often tries to find some business in Xiyuzhou and the surrounding areas for my family, and also takes Beiyan to do it. ”
Jiang Luping is Jiang Zhan's sister, seven years ago, Jiang Chengtian, the eldest son of the Jiang family, was seriously injured and lost his martial arts. And Jiang Luping was also seriously injured, but because Jiang Zhan was only fifteen years old at the time, Jiang Luping, who was only two years older, had to take on the responsibility of the family and start a new business after his injury, which was very difficult. Jiang Luping also delayed her life's major event because of this, and Yunying is still unmarried at the age of twenty-four. But seeing that the Jiang family's new business was not yet complete, Jiang Luping had no choice but to ignore her own affairs first. Originally, Jiang Chengtian saw that Jiang Zhan was already twenty-two years old, and Ying Xiuling also had a letter from Xiyuzhou, and Meng Xue had been like a brother and sister to Jiang Zhan since he was a child, so he wanted to hurry up and handle his younger brother's marriage. After a matter in the family is decided, it is better to find a suitable family to let Jiang Luping marry with peace of mind. Otherwise, Jiang Zhan's major events will not be over, and Jiang Luping will definitely refuse to take care of her own affairs.
Jiang Zhan came to Xiyuzhou, and when he saw Meng Xue, who had grown up and was amazingly beautiful, the admiration in his heart was even deeper. But he didn't want Meng Xue to have no intention of Jiang Zhan, and his attitude was also light. Jiang Zhan, who was disabled in order to save Meng Xue, suddenly felt that his thoughts for many years turned out to be a void. And his family is in the middle of the road, if there is no original affection, he is proud in his heart he will not want to climb, since the affection is no longer there, he does not want to stay any longer, left a letter to Ying Xiuling, who has been close to him since he was a mother, and left alone.
Meng Yu and Jiang Zhan studied art in Huangshan together, and they were brothers with deep feelings, but he also knew that there was no reason to ask Meng Xue, although Meng Xue's current mind was simply a castle in the air. Ying Shaoyan and Xiao Dianxiu are not young anymore, and they may get married at any time. At that time, wouldn't Meng Xue's blow be the same as today's Jiang Zhan. This is actually a knot that has always entangled Meng Yu, he is worried about his sister, and he feels even more sorry for Jiang Zhan, who grew up together.
Meng Yu asked Jiang Luping: "When will my sister go back to Jiangnan?"
Jiang Luping said: "The goods have been traded, but there are still some other business matters to deal with, and I have to stay for three or four days." ”
Meng Yu thought to herself: "It's really not a thing for a woman to run around in the wind and rain outside all day long. In fact, he had some things about the homicide case in the capital, and he wanted to ask Jiang Luping, who was also good at knives, to help. Although those eight people can't see the knife edge, it may not be that all of them don't see it, and if the eight people can't stay out of the matter, they can only ask other knife masters to break the game. However, Meng Yu still had to deal with his own affairs in Beiyan first, although he was a world friend with the Jiang family, and he had a good relationship with Jiang Zhan. But after all, he was not familiar with Jiang Luping before, so he couldn't say anything if she waited for her here and went back to Xiyuzhou to help her.
He said to Jiang Luping: "Sister, eat noodles, it's going to be cold." When I finished eating, I accompanied my sister back to my room. ”
Jiang Luping smiled and said, "Okay." ”
Meng Yu sent Jiang Luping back to the room, and after a short journey, the two were speechless for a while. There is nothing specific to talk about, and it turns back into two pure lonely men and widows, which is a little unnatural for a while.
Walking to Jiang Luping's room, Meng Yu suddenly told the matter. He was originally a simple person, and he didn't want to drag on today's affairs until tomorrow: "Sister Jiang, if you don't have much to do when you go back to Jiangnan, can you stay in Beiyan and Xiyuzhou for a while." ”
Jiang Luping was a little surprised: "Brother Meng Xian has something to say." ”
Meng Yujiang took over the case and talked about the fruitless examination in the capital. Jiang Luping's brows furrowed: "Brother Meng Xian, although I also have a lot of business affairs to take care of at home, it is not that I can't leave at all. If the virtuous brother wants me to help, it is naturally his duty. Just hearing about this case, can Brother Meng Xian handle it alone?"
Meng Yu sighed: "This matter is indeed very important, although the emperor has allowed everything to act cheaply, but in fact, Meng Yu has always been just a civilian detective, and there is no effective manpower to really do things." ”
Jiang Luping smiled and said briskly: "How long do you want me to help you? a month, two months, three or five months." ”
Meng Yu was overjoyed: "Thank you, sister, one month is enough!"
Jiang Luping smiled again, she is a typical Jiangnan girl, if she doesn't drink as much as she did on the first day, she is actually a very delicate and quiet woman: "Then I'll enter the house, I wish you and Hou Daxia a good night." ”
Meng Yu also smiled happily.
