Chapter 220 Fragrant Flower Rouge

The dull atmosphere of the past was swept away in the Su residence, and in the evening, everyone in the Su family except Su Zhongfan gathered in the living room.The Su family brothers headed by Mrs. Wen toasted Chen Mengsheng four times. Seeing that Su Zhongfan was not at the table, Su Zhenqing always had such a disturbed expression on his face...

Chen Mengsheng smiled and comforted Su Zhaoqing: "Miss Qing'er, don't worry too much, I know your father treats you three brothers and sisters very harshly. But he still loves you in his heart, it's just that his way made you resist. Qing'er It is a fluke that Miss Er can escape from death this time, lovers will eventually get married, I hope Miss will cherish it a lot!"

"Xie Engong rescued him, Qing'er died once in the bronze mirror. After going through this calamity, Qing'er can better understand the preciousness of life, even if his father forbids it, Qing'er doesn't think about it anymore. "

Xiang Xiaotian let out a long sigh and said to Qi Ying: "Daughter-in-law, I'm just a big bastard and I don't know how to say anything polite. In the future, if we have children, no matter if it's a boy or a girl, as long as the child likes us, let him go." " Qi Ying blushed and nodded shyly.

The door of the living room was suddenly opened, and Su Zhongfan walked in with an embarrassing expression on his face, and saluted Xiang Xiaotian: "Xiang Zhuangtu, although what you said is rough, it is not unreasonable, Su has been taught. Listen to what you said After ten years of reading books, the old man suddenly realized that the children's affairs should be chosen by themselves. It was Su who was a villain in vain and almost made a big mistake, the old man is ashamed!"

When Xiang Xiaotian heard Su Zhongfan say this about himself, he grinned and patted Chen Mengsheng and said: "You hear that Mr. Su is such a learned person, he praises me. He listens to me and reads better than him It’s still strong, brother sometimes I think I’m quite knowledgeable too.”

"Bah, how shameless!" Qi Ying spat with a smile, and everyone in the room was amused by the couple.

Chen Mengsheng got up and cupped his hands and said: "It's rare that Master Su can turn back when he lost his way. It's really the luck of Miss Qing'er."

Su Zhongfan shook his head and smiled wryly: "People are not sages and sages. I think I will go to Jiangzhou Mansion with my family early tomorrow morning. It's just... I just have an uninvited request. I hope Brother Chen will not refuse."

Chen Mengsheng said with a smile: "Master Su, you don't need to be too polite. If you need help, it's okay to say so."

Su Zhongfan said repeatedly: "Brother Chen is very capable, someone Su just wants Brother Chen to accompany me to help me as a staff officer."

While drinking and eating, Xiang Xiaotian whispered to Chen Mengsheng: "Brother, why are you a judge doing Yuelao's business? Does this count as meddling in other people's business?"

Chen Mengsheng clasped his fists and said to Su Zhongfan: "Even if Master Su doesn't tell us to go to Jiangzhou Mansion, I still have an unfinished business case and am about to go to Jiangzhou Mansion."

Mrs. Wen said with a smile: "That's very good, the little lady is still worried that my family's Qing'er will be fooled by someone who is not good! I can rest assured that I will go with you. After the matter of Jiangzhou Prefecture is over, I will Letting my master personally send you to Shandong also saves you the trivial customs clearance."

Su Zhongfan Nianxu nodded and said: "Ma'am, what you said is very true. I think my Su family still has some friends in Mizhou and I will save you a lot of trouble by sending you there. Come on, I will talk about this matter later, I, Su, will respect you first." One cup..."

Because Chen Mengsheng was injured in the beauty mirror, he didn't dare to drink too much, and after a few drinks, they each went to rest.Shangguan Yanran Room### Passing Yaoyong, the Su family felt that they had neglected Chen Mengsheng and the others.I ordered my servants to arrange Chen Mengsheng and his party in a more comfortable courtyard in the East Wing. Anyway, I don't care about those things if I only sleep for one night...

After three poles in the sun, the large ship waiting to set sail was moored at Shili Jiangyang Wharf in Anqing Prefecture.The master and wife of the Su family took Su Zhaoqing and three or four servant girls aboard, leaving two sons to look after the house.With a big bow on his back and two big bundles in his hand, Xiang Xiaotian slapped Chen Mengsheng on the side with his elbow and said, "You see, the Su family is really big. These few people even drove a big ship when they went out."

Chen Mengsheng laughed and said, "If one day my elder brother gets rich, he will also buy a big boat. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to take my sister-in-law to travel around the mountains and rivers when I have nothing to do!"

Xiang Xiaotian patted his head and sighed: "Brother, you are right, a man should be like this..."

Qi Ying stepped forward and said with a smile: "It's so early in the morning, haven't you two woken up yet? You're talking nonsense, don't let the old lady of the Su family hear the joke!"

Shangguan Yanran pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Okay, okay. Sister Xianglan, elder brother is also thinking of you, so don't talk about him. Get on the boat now, ah, I'm a bit guilty of seeing the boat now. I'm dizzy, but luckily it's not far from Jiangzhou Mansion." The four of them boarded the boat, and the master of the Su family waved his hand to build the boat, and the boat slowly raised its sails to ride the wind and waves and sail towards Jiangzhou Mansion.The big boat of the Su family was originally a fast boat and with the smooth sailing, it arrived in Jiangzhou Prefecture in less than two days.

As soon as Chen Mengsheng and others got off the boat, they realized that the customs and customs of Jiangzhou Prefecture were very different from other places. The people here are known for their enthusiasm and unrestrained spirit.There are slim women everywhere in the streets and alleys. The gauze clothes are light, the hips are slender, the breasts are fat, the swallows are thin and the fragrance is gusty. The wind is dazzling.Mrs. Wen said with a smile: "In a few days, it will be the Qiqiao Festival. Generally, all the girls who are waiting to be married will go to the Rouge Square in beautiful clothes. The little lady's natal family is going to pass through the Rouge Square. Why don't we hire Get in the car and go take a look together."

Chen Mengsheng said with a slight smile: "Miss Qing'er's favorite person seems to be met in Yanzhifang, so let's go to Yanzhifang for a walk." Su Zhongfan hired three carts at the pier, and took everyone with him The flow of people went to Rouge Square.This time I came to Jiangzhou mainly to see Su Zhaoqing's lovesickness, so as long as the cart was parked outside Yanzhifang, a few people got out of the car and walked slowly along the street on Zhifenxiang Street.

"Wow, what a beautiful acacia tree. Take a quick look, brother. I just heard Mrs. Wen say it before, and it's a well-deserved reputation to meet today." Shangguan Yanran pointed to two hundreds of years old trees not far away, The big trees intertwined with each other exclaimed happily.

Mrs. Wen looked at Shangguan Yanran and Chen Mengsheng and said with a smile: "This tree is also known as the Acacia tree. It is most effective for an unmarried woman to buy a box of rouge and tie it to the tree with a red string to look after her husband. Miss Shangguan, look here is full of people who have not left the pavilion. The girl is wearing a rouge button under the tree, Miss Shangguan might as well wear one." Shangguan Yanran blushed, shaking her head hastily and her shy expression added a third of her charm.

Xiang Xiaotian anxiously said: "Mrs. Wen, if that girl wears that rouge button, how many husbands will she attract? What will my brother do?" Xiang Xiaotian's words caused everyone to laugh, and they all went away in unison. Look at Chen Mengsheng.But Chen Mengsheng looked at the husband and wife tree without blinking his eyes. Shangguan Yanran was jealous and followed Chen Mengsheng's gaze, and saw a little girl who was only six or seven years old under the acacia tree. It's the tattered and unkempt begging behind those big girls and young wives.

Shangguan Yanran asked angrily: "Brother, which girl are you looking for? Let's go and match with you, maybe we can succeed!" Dao's eyebrows were almost knit together, and he didn't hear Shangguan Yanran's words at all.Shangguan Yanran also saw that something was wrong, turned around and waved her hands in front of Chen Mengsheng's eyes a few times before Chen Mengsheng came back to his senses.

"Senior brother, what's the matter with you, senior brother? Why are you out of your mind, are you okay?" Shangguan Yanran asked puzzled.

Chen Mengsheng said in a deep voice: "That little girl's head is full of black air. At first glance, she is obviously a ghost, but she can beg with people in broad daylight. It is very unusual. I have never encountered such a thing. Junior sister, brother Auntie, Master Su, Mrs. Wen, Miss Qing'er, please wait for me for a while. I'll go and find out, and I'll be right back." Chen Mengsheng didn't wait for everyone's answer, stepped forward in two or three steps and stopped the little Huazi.

Xiang Xiaotian said depressedly: "Hey, the brat left us here to bask in the sun, but he himself hid in the shade of a tree and struck up a conversation with them. No, let's go and have a look..."

Chen Mengsheng walked under the acacia tree like a big man, and immediately attracted contemptuous looks from the women around him, so Chen Mengsheng didn't care about those.He hurriedly shouted: "Little girl, don't run away, I'll ask you again." When Xiao Huazi saw Chen Mengsheng approaching her from afar, she ran away without looking back.Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chen Mengsheng couldn't use the Qianying footwork in the Great Compassion Curse to chase after the little Huazi, and watched the little girl disappear among the beauties.

Shangguan Yanran came over and asked, "Senior brother, why did that little girl run away as soon as she saw you? Is she a human or a ghost?" Shangguan Yanran's appearance of beauty like a fairy made the big girls and sisters-in-law under the tree jealous. He turned sideways to avoid the look of envy in his eyes.

Chen Mengsheng sighed: "I don't know why that little girl ran away, but she should be human, a ghostly person!"

Xiang Xiaotian and Qi Ying pulled Chen Mengsheng and the others to the side, and Xiang Xiaotian said softly, "Is that little flower a human or a ghost? Let's look for it later. If you two stand under the tree again, I guess those women will look for you first." I'm in trouble. I think it's not too late for us to help Master Su settle his affairs and then make sense." Seeing that the little girl had disappeared, Chen Mengsheng nodded and followed Mrs. Wen to the grocery store where he went half a year ago. shop.

After more than half a year, the grocery store is still the same, and the shopkeeper is still busy with his business.Mrs. Wen walked in with lotus steps and asked, "Shopkeeper, I'm asking you for someone."

"Oh? What? This lady is so kind-hearted? I wonder who the lady is trying to inquire about? It's not that I boast that I know most of the people in Jiangzhou Mansion in Haikou. As long as I know, I must know everything." The shopkeeper Seeing Mrs. Wen dressed in jewels, she cupped her hands and smiled.

Mrs. Wen took out two taels of silver and put it on the table, saying: "Half a year ago, there was a person who asked you to sell mirrors called... what's his name? It was the one who sold bronze mirrors for five taels of silver..."

Mrs. Jingwen, the shopkeeper, said this, after thinking for a while, she suddenly realized: "I remembered, Mrs. is talking about Mu Shiguang, Mr. Mu Family!"

"Yes, yes, it's him. I don't know where the shepherd's son lives? Who else is there?" Mrs. Wen asked calmly.

"Cough! That Mu Shiguang is also an unlucky master..."
