Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 198 The Secret of the Concentric Knot
Xiao Xing and Xiao Li have been used to traveling around with her for more than half a year, their hearts have grown wilder, and their courage has grown a bit. Seeing the bustling scene on the ten-mile long street, they still can't hold back, chattering and criticizing constantly.

"Go around by yourselves! We will still meet here and go back home after an hour! Don't forget the time, I won't wait!"

Yao Cunhui smiled and said to them.

Xiao Xing and Xiao Li couldn't help but leave with a smile, and then looked at Polygonum Polygonum.

Hong Liao pursed her lips and smiled, shook her hands and said, "You guys go, I'm with Second Miss!"

Yao Cunhui scolded with a smile: "You two bad water, you go on your own, and you won't even leave Polygonum Polygonum for me!"

The few people who spoke laughed, Xiao Xing and Xiao Li said goodbye to Yao Cunhui and Hong Liao, held hands and laughed, and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.

"I remember last year's Lantern Festival, I went out with my sister hand in hand, how happy it was then, I don't know how my sister is now!"

The stream of light flowed all over the ground, grotesque and dazzling, and the lights on the ground compared with the round and bright moonlight in the sky.

"Didn't you say that the eldest uncle treats the eldest lady very well? The fourth aunt has given birth to the young master, and it will not be long before the eldest lady will also give birth!" Hong Liao laughed aside.

"Yeah, it's coming soon!" Yao Cunhui's mouth turned up slightly, his eyes were a little blurred, thinking of the chance meeting between his sister and brother-in-law at the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival last year, he couldn't help laughing.

It's really an interesting thing. At that time, how did you know that this brother-in-law was such a passionate and infatuated person?The older sister sang the piano and the piano with him, it was a good fate.

Red Polygonum saw Yao Cunhui smile, although he didn't know the reason, he also giggled along with him.

"Hey, miss, there is a five-blessing lantern here! I'll buy one and give it to Hongzhi, for good fortune. For some reason, she hasn't recovered from her illness for so long!"

Red Polygonum sighed softly as she spoke, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

She and Hong Zhi were maidservants chosen for Yao Cunhui when Yun Shi was still there, and they came to her side at the same time.Hong Liao is honest and honest, Hong Zhi is smart and lively, Hong Zhi learns things very quickly, and has helped Hong Liao a lot with his advice. At that time, the two were very close.

If Yun Shi hadn't passed away early, maybe the two of them could have been so good forever, who knows that the world is impermanent, but they have come to this point today.

"Go!" Yao Cunhui sighed softly, and said helplessly, "You are such a good person!"

Only Yao Cunhui and Rong Ma knew about the tampering in the red branch decoction, and Yao Cunhui never disclosed the slightest rumor about it.It's about time now, and it's time for Hongzhi to get better slowly.

"Yes, Second Miss!" Hong Liao smiled innocently, and went to buy it.

Yao Cunhui's eyes turned lightly, and he looked into the crowd boredly, suddenly startled, fixedly staring at a man in front of a lantern stand not far away, blinked, trying to make himself see clearly.

That person was wearing a moon white robe, black hair was high, he was slender, and his appearance was as handsome as a flower. Who else could it be if it wasn't Bai Muyuan?

The Lantern Festival, Jin Wu couldn't help it, it was a festive day for the whole city to revel, so it was not surprising that Bai Muyuan came out to play.

However, beside him, there was a beautiful woman in a red dress with high temples.The woman held his arm with one slender hand, and pointed at the lantern on the stall with the other hand, talking to him with a smile.

It is not surprising to travel with the United States and spend the festive season together.

However, the expressions of these two people are very interesting.The woman's face was full of smiles, her eyebrows were beaming and she was full of interest, she could tell she was genuinely happy; Bai Muyuan was different, her smile was a bit forced and perfunctory, her eyes looked around from time to time vigilantly, she turned sideways inward intentionally or unintentionally Standing, as if afraid of being seen.

Yao Cunhui raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help paying attention, covering his body and standing not far away to stare at them.The more she looked, the more she felt that the woman's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat familiar. She pondered hard in her mind for a while, and obviously there was an answer ready to come out, but it happened to be so short that she couldn't remember it alive!

I saw Bai Muyuan lowered her head and said something to the woman, who raised her head and smiled at him, the two left the stall immediately and mixed into the crowd.

Yao Cunhui subconsciously stepped forward, came to the place where they were standing just now, and looked into the crowd thoughtfully.

When I lowered my head, there was a sympathetic knot lying on the ground!

Yao Cunhui's heart tightened, and he bent down to pick it up.The base color is bright red, decorated with long tassels of the same color.Bordered with gold thread, inlaid with a circle of thin rice beads, embroidered with colored thread is the Cowherd and Weaver Girl magpie bridge meeting, and next to it are two lines of poems embroidered with black silk thread: "If the two loves are long, how can they be in court?" Day and night!"
Yao Cunhui thought for a while, put the concentric knot into his sleeves, turned and left.

"Second Miss, where have you been! This servant is so worried!"

Yao Cunhui walked back to the original place, Hong Liao had already bought a lantern and was looking around, anxiously.

"I just took a random look in the front!" Yao Cunhui laughed and said, "Could it be possible to lose Miss Ben? There's nothing to worry about!"

Hong Liao said: "What if the second lady gets crushed and falls? How can the slaves not be worried! Besides, isn't it said that there are the most kidnappers in this lively season?"

Yao Cunhui bent over and gave a "puchi" smile, "Red Polygonum, which kidnapper doesn't have eyes, and can kidnap me, a girl?"

Rhododendron froze for a moment, but couldn't help but also smiled.Not to mention the law and order in the capital, it is really not easy for someone to kidnap Yao Cunhui!
"This is the lamp you bought for Hongzhi?" Yao Cunhui looked at the Wufu lantern in her hand with a smile. It was a bright red gauze lantern with five sides, each side was painted with an auspicious pattern, and the bottom was decorated with golden tassels. It looks very festive.

"It's too troublesome to hold it, put it in the carriage!"

Yao Cunhui smiled, and walked to the place where the carriage was stored with Hong Liao.

After setting up the lanterns, the two continued to walk on the long street, happily joining the cheerful crowd.

"Second Miss Yao!" Not far away, a warm and polite greeting suddenly came from behind.

"Mr. Bai!" Yao Cunhui and Hong Liao turned their heads, and a handsome face like a spring flower came into view immediately. The man came with a light smile, like a banished fairy, it was Bai Muyuan.

"What a coincidence!" Yao Cunhui nodded to Bai Muyuan with a calm, polite and distant expression.

"Hehe, yes, what a coincidence!" Bai Muyuan was startled, and smiled helplessly, and said with a smile: "At least we had a friendship all the way back then, why should Second Miss Yao be so repulsive!"

Yao Cunhui's face darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "One moment, another moment, besides, the journey along the way is just a chance encounter, I don't think there is any friendship to share with Mr. Bai."

Bai Muyuan was stunned, knowing that she was unhappy at the thought of Yiye who was blackmailed by her later, she immediately smiled apologetically, looked at Yao Cunhui and said earnestly, "It's all my fault, I'm here to apologize to Second Miss! Teahouse, can I invite Second Miss to sit down?"

Yao Cunhui sneered, and said unceremoniously: "No need, different ways don't conspire with each other. If a person makes the same mistake twice, Mr. Bai will say that this person is stupid?"

"Second Miss Yao," Bai Muyuan sighed, and said with a wry smile, "Why is Second Miss being so aggressive? We are all in the business world, and there may be opportunities to cooperate in the future. Why is Second Miss so obsessed with the previous matter? What about it? What happened earlier was insincere, but didn't you let the Yao family make a big deal! What's wrong with Second Miss?"

"You are self-inflicted, we are justified to fight back, how can this be the same?" Yao Cunhui retorted unceremoniously, gave him a cold look and said with a sneer: "It's your problem that you don't care if you are swayed by the Yao family, but you can treat those who like to hide it behind your back." Yin people, things that play tricks and tricks, Miss Ben has never been interested in reconciliation!"

If it was another businessman, Yao Cunhui would go down the steps no matter what, at least to give the other party face on the surface.However, Bai Muyuan was different.

Behind this person is the Lu family, maybe he doesn't know that the Yao family already knows this fact.The Lu family has the support of the Empress Dowager, and their appetite has been getting bigger and bigger over the years, and they want to get involved in everything. If it hadn't been for the great turmoil caused by their arrogance a few years ago, the Empress Dowager was furious and reprimanded, I am afraid that they will deal with the Yao family this time. , Their methods are even more despicable and sinister, and they will not introduce Bai Muyuan as a puppet to hide behind the scenes.

Because of this, Yao Cunhui didn't want to give the other party a chance to exploit, otherwise, the other party would just keep pestering her and trying to infiltrate her.Today's Yao Family Rice Shop has firmly established its foothold, and Master Yao is planning to expand his business to the south of the Yangtze River this year, connecting end to end through the Grand Canal, and the Lu family will not be able to move at all for the time being!
Bai Muyuan didn't expect a girl like her to speak so bluntly and unceremoniously, her expression froze, the anger flashed in her amber eyes, and she forced a laugh and said, "Second Miss is really quick-talking, she's really a makeup team The hero in the movie, don't let the eyebrows!"

"Second Miss, Miss Hongliu!" Following the prestige, it was Zhao Jiyuan who also came.

That's funny, he's here too!

"Master Zhao!" Yao Cunhui nodded, his expression still indifferent.Hong Liao had a good impression of the polite Zhao Jiyuan, and blessed him with a smile, and called Mr. Zhao.

The two men looked into each other's eyes, greeted each other with a smile and exchanged a few polite greetings, but in fact, neither of them liked the other.A strange atmosphere suddenly flowed among the three of them, and even the red Polygonum felt something was wrong, blinked, and looked at this and then that with a little doubt.

At this time, Bai Muyuan invited her to the teahouse again, but Yao Cunhui didn't refuse any more.

So, the four of them went to the nearby Fengwei Teahouse and asked for a private room.

Bai Muyuan seemed to be very familiar with this place, so she ordered Xiao Er to serve tea and snacks familiarly, and said to Yao Cunhui with a smile: "The Xinyang Maojian here is no worse than Huangshan Yunwu, Second Miss can try it! There is also the apricot here Dried peaches and other preserved fruits are also different from other places, and have a different flavor!"
