Chapter 70: Help you protect yourself?
Very good, Brother Fan is not with the wrong person, and he actually cares about him!
"What about that, Brother Fan? I think this town is quite big and there are a lot of delicious food. The people around are not in a hurry. I just want to take them to stay here for one more day before leaving." Hong After Xiaoduo finished speaking, he looked at the noodle eater as if he was smiling.
When he heard what she said, Fan Wu's face showed disbelief at first, and then he laughed happily: "I'm not leaving today, that's great, sir, wait until my subordinates can come back Why don't you ask for leave? I'll show them around."
Murong Jing shook his head when he heard this, and then he saw the smile on his subordinate's face visibly disappear.
"There's no need to ask for leave. We don't have any plans today. Let's go shopping together." Murong Jing swallowed the food in his mouth and despised this subordinate in his heart. Fortunately, he still thought he was calm, but it turned out that he had misjudged whether he was calm or not. It all depends on who you meet and what happens!
"Xiaoduo, how are you?" Fan Wu asked quickly, fearing that she would mind.
"Okay, there are so many people and it's so exciting. I just want to buy a carriage. You must be good at it. Could you please help me pick a horse that is docile and easy to control. Our carriage is too small, and they are sleepy. I can’t sleep." Hong Xiaoduo responded.
Fan Wu immediately agreed and helped pick out the pearls, flowers, rouge and so on. They might be laymen and picking up horses would be no problem.
As he talked, he calculated whether he had enough money to buy a carriage and buy things for the children. If not, he could advance his monthly salary from the young master, for one or two years.
I was very upset inside. If I had known that I could meet Xiaoduo and the others, I wouldn't have donated money randomly. Who knows if those so-called benevolent people really use their donations to help the refugees.
Mess Xiaoduo has seven poor children to raise, so she really needs money!
After eating the noodles, Hong Xiaoduo rushed to pay Yao Guang without any courtesy and wiped the corners of Yao Guang's mouth with a handkerchief.
"Mom, you see it's clean and not dirty." Yao Guang pointed at the hem of her clothes and raised her head to tell her.
Hong Xiaoduo laughed, saying that it didn't matter if it got dirty, but then he thought that they were only wearing the same clothes and had no change of clothes.
It's a little early to put on the winter clothes in the car. Since they're going to buy a bigger car, I'll buy them another set of autumn clothes later.
Leaving the noodle shop, the group walked slowly forward to the horse and carriage shop.
Haidong and the others rushed to hug the youngest Yao Guang and Kai Yang, while the other five children were also protected in the middle.
Hong Xiaoduo and Fan Wu were walking side by side, chatting about the price of the carriage. If the carriage was not in a hurry, it could be customized.
At this time, there were sounds of gongs and shouts on the roadside ahead. Before Hong Xiaoduo could understand what it was for, the person walking in the front holding Yao Guang turned around and told him that there was a magic trick. He's doing tricks and wants to show the kids.
"If you're not in a hurry, why don't you stop and take a look first? Otherwise, why don't you go to the carriage shop first?" Murong Jing still did not make a decision on his own to respond to his men, but turned around and looked at Hong Xiaoduo and asked.
Hong Xiaoduo said: "Don't worry, I just have to trouble them."
"They want to see it themselves, why bother?" Fan Wu said deliberately, He was also very happy to see that his brothers didn't say anything sarcastic after they found out about his affair with sister Xiaoduo and the children. They were so kind to the children.
"Ms. Hong, do you want to take a look?" Murong Jing looked at Hong Xiaoduo again and asked.
She was about to say, OK, but suddenly she felt that this was not what he meant by asking her.
"If you don't like the noise, why don't you go sit at the tea stall over there and wait for them." Before she could think of a reason, the person who asked had already told her.
Hong Xiaoduo nodded and said yes.
Seeing Fan Wu also walking to the tea stall not far away, Murong Jing teased him: "How come you, an uncle, have been robbed of the limelight by them?"
Fan Wuyi Listen, look towards the juggling class, reaction Come here, it’s not like that: “Xiaoduo, go to the tea stall and sit and wait, I’ll accompany them to watch the fun.”
Hong Xiaoduo smiled and nodded, looking at Fan Wu’s hurried back, I just want to laugh, this is such a simple and stupid brother! How easy to lie.
After looking at the excited little ones, Hong Xiaoduo followed Murong Jing to the tea stall with confidence.
“Thank you.” Murong Jing said.
Huh? Your men help me take care of the children. Shouldn't it be me who should say thank you? Hong Xiaoduo glanced at the person next to him in confusion, and suddenly realized why he was thanking him.
"You're welcome, sir. I'm not leaving today, and it's not for you, sir." Hong Xiaoduo said with a smile.
She told the truth, and Murong Jing also smiled. This was also the first time that he was ignored.
While the two were talking, they arrived at the tea stall. The owner of the tea stall had just seen the tall and handsome man and the pretty and charming woman walking this way, but he didn't expect that they were coming to his own tea stall.
Hurryly greeting, he wiped the cleaned chair with his sleeve again.
His tea stall is not as good as a teahouse. It just makes ordinary leaf tea. Teagoers who are tired from walking around can take a rest and earn a few small bucks. Anyone with a little money and status will not sit at his stall. .
Looking at this pair of handsome men and beautiful women, they did not dislike it at all and sat down casually. The stall owner was very happy. He saw that these two people were looking towards the juggling class and guessed that they might not be here. Those who drink tea just sit and sit.
Then he was not disappointed. It was good that such a customer would not dislike him and would sit down at his simple tea stall. "Bring a pot of tea." Murong Jing said to the stall owner.
"Sir, this small tea stall only has the cheapest leaf tea." The stall owner told me a little embarrassedly.
Murong Jing said it didn't matter, and the stall owner hurriedly found the newly purchased teapot and cup, boiled it again with boiling water, and then made tea and carefully brought it to the table.
Seeing the tea stall owner walking away in a wise manner, Murong Jing thought it was time to get down to business, but at this moment, a carriage came towards the tea stall and arrived at the tea stall. Still stopped.
The man in his fifties following the carriage, whom Murong Jing knew, was the steward of Magistrate Liu's house in this town.
What Hong Xiaoduo recognized was the girl the maid helped down from the carriage, the fat sister who had snatched the tiger doll from Yao Guang the evening before.
"The young steward of the Liu Mansion has met Mr. Murong and the young lady."
"The young lady Liu Caiqing's daughter, Liu Shimin, has met Mr. Murong and the young lady." 2 The man came forward and saluted.
Murong Jing frowned slightly and looked at the two people.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Hong Xiaoduo didn't respond either. People also misunderstood him and took it as a gift to him.
To deal with this kind of thing, just leave it to the rightful owner. It's fine to watch the fun by yourself.
She poured herself a cup of tea. Just as she was about to put down the pot in her hand, she saw Murong Jing looking towards her. She didn't understand what he meant, so she thought about it and poured it into his tea cup as well. Tea soup.
Then, I saw him holding up the tea cup, looking at the not-so-clear tea soup inside, and said, "I wonder why you two are here?"
"Go back to Mr. Murong. , it’s like this, the hunting guard in the town hunted a black bear last night, so my father sent someone to buy it, and invited the chef of Sanxianlou to cook it at Dao’s house. He thought that it was rare for the young master to come here, so he didn’t say anything else. I have some good things to entertain the young master, so I ordered the steward to invite the young master and the young lady to taste them together.
Shi Min came here because his younger brother naughty and bumped into the young lady and several young gentlemen last night, so he came here specially. I came here to apologize to the young lady.
I hope this little lady can forgive my brother and my sister for my father's sake. "Liu Shimin said, while bowing to Hong Xiaoduo again.
Hong Xiaoduo, who was originally just watching the excitement, was stunned for a moment. Why is there anything about her here?
This little lady from County Magistrate Liu’s family, dressed like this, looks better than You were even more delicate yesterday, and you came to her to apologize? Wasn't it because you thought she was a fool?
Seeing Murong Jing looking at her, she knew it would be inappropriate not to say anything else: " The little lady of the Liu family doesn't need to be like this, yesterday's matter was settled yesterday. ”
Then she continued to drink the tea soup in her hand, not bothering to waste time on such a meaningless thing.
She didn't care whether it was leaf tea or not, as long as it could quench her thirst.
"Thank you, young lady, for your magnanimity." Liu Shimin was annoyed when she received such a perfunctory and rude response, but Master Murong was right next to her, so what could she do?
After enduring his annoyance and thanking Hong Xiaoduo sincerely, he looked at Murong Jing again: "I wonder if the young master is free for lunch? Or is it appropriate for dinner?"
Liu Shimin looked dignified The demeanor and soft voice made Hong Xiaoduo couldn't help but take a second look, and then looked at Murong Jing curiously, wanting to see how he would respond to the invitation from such a beautiful woman.
After all, it was Magistrate Liu who invited him, so he wouldn’t refuse it, right?
Unexpectedly, when she saw this, she met the other person's eyes. She didn't know if she was overthinking, but there was questioning in his eyes? It seemed like he was asking for her opinion, whether to go or not?
No, even this fool can see that they are here to invite you to a banquet at their house. It is up to you whether you go or not, and when is convenient. What does it have to do with me?
"Are you going?" Murong Jing looked at her and asked.
Hong Xiaoduo said in confusion: "Huh?"
She knew that she was not the kind of person who was versatile and smart, but she was not too stupid either, but... Why don't you understand the person in front of you? What does it mean?
"I'm asking you, if there is a bear banquet in Mr. Liu's house and there will be bear paws to eat, will you go or not?" Murong Jing suppressed a smile and asked again seriously.
Why is her confused and cute reaction so cute?
Mu Rongjing, who has read poetry and books, never thought that he would use the word cute to describe girls other than children.
Are you really asking yourself what you mean? Hong Xiaoduo looked at Murong Jing and blinked his big eyes, thinking, what is our relationship? It doesn't matter if the people in the Liu family don't know, don't we ourselves have a clear mind?
What are you asking me to do? Help you to block the peach blossoms, it’s not that big of a deal...
My dear mother, I wonder why the monthly votes cast by book friends do not match the total number of monthly votes displayed by the system.
It turns out that if I update to the specified number of words on the website every day, the system will also reward me with a monthly pass. It made me think about how I would cash it out if I owed it so much, but it turned out to be like this, and I almost got killed by myself!
But I said that I still owe three chapters. Now that I have said it, I still count it. The weak-handed banshee will work hard to fulfill it.
Once again, ten monthly votes plus one more chapter still count, but the number you vote in your hands will prevail. I can go to bed early tonight with peace of mind!
