Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 392

Because it was snowing, the ox cart was not moving fast. A Cheng looked at the sky outside the window and secretly reckoned that he should be able to return to Qingzhou before dark.

It stands to reason that there is also a brush and ink shop in Qingzhou City, and although the things in it are not very good, they are also complete.However, since a few pieces of ink were stolen by thieves last time, Qin Yanzhao had an extreme desire for ink ingots, as if he wanted to make up for what was lost last time, and ordered Ah Cheng to go to Pingcheng every now and then The largest Jiguzhai buys ink ingots, inkstones, etc., the more expensive the better.

This is a good thing for A Cheng, he just has a reason to go to A Chang's shop from time to time, and buy some steamed cakes, hot cakes and the like to take back, and no one else will be suspicious.

At the third quarter of the first lunar month, when Ah Cheng came out from Jiguzhai, his hands were empty.

Today, Jiguzhai settled accounts, and the shopkeeper went to the owner's house to pay the account. The valuable pens and inks in the shop were locked, and the shopkeeper personally took care of the keys. If no one else was around, Ah Cheng could only leave empty-handed. back.

There is a shortcut from Jiguzhai to the "Changxing Rice Shop" opened by Achang, so Ah Cheng didn't take the car, but asked his husband to wait at the same place, and walked to the rice shop.

Walking on the wide stone road, Ah Cheng only felt that the snow this winter fell strangely, it didn't melt on the ground, it was like powder, and it didn't melt very much when it fell on his body.

He pushed the bamboo hat aside, and looked around without any trace.

This road is where the Xiao Mansion is located, and Changxing Rice Shop is on Changxing Street, two intersections away from this road.

A Cheng slightly slowed down his pace, and the corner of his eyes was focused on the gate of Xiao's house, and he paused suddenly.

The gate of the Xiao family was actually opened at this time, and several servants came out from the small corner door next to it, and ran to the gate, bending over to unload the threshold. Judging from the situation, there should be vehicles coming in or going out.

Ah Cheng's footsteps gradually slowed down, but with a glance, he saw a few idlers gathered by the roadside, watching the excitement with their sleeves rolled up.

The affairs of big families always attract the attention of ordinary people. The Xiao family is also considered a prominent family in Jiangyang County, and every move is naturally attracting attention.

Seeing this, Ah Cheng simply moved towards the group of idlers, pricking up his ears, trying to hear what the servants of Xiao's family were saying.

It's a pity that those few servants just turned their heads on the threshold and didn't say a word. After the threshold was removed, they lowered their heads and stood by the door again, waiting for someone.

A Chengzhi waited for a long time before he heard the sound of hooves, and soon he saw two tall, shiny horses trotting out from the door, with two people who looked like grooms holding the reins beside them, and after a while , Another five or six healthy servants worked together to push out a very exquisite carriage, and everyone put the horses on the carriage together, and then a small group of guards rode out.

It was the first time for Ah Cheng to see such a scene, and he felt that the Xiao family's ostentation was really not small, so he enjoyed watching it with great interest.

After the guards came out, they quickly noticed the group of idlers gathered around to watch the fun.Seeing this, a man who looked like a leader among the guards raised his eyebrows, and a trace of hostility was evident on his face.

He suddenly raised the reins and steered his horse, charged straight at A Cheng and the others, at the same time drew his sword out of its sheath with a "choke", and using the sword as his finger, he shouted, "Wait, don't let go!"

His approach was extremely ferocious, and what's more, he still held a shining sword in his hand. Where did those idlers dare to look again, they scattered away with a "Hula".

A Cheng had no choice but to retreat to the side with the flow of people, but his footsteps slowed down a little. He heard soft footsteps behind him, and then heard the voice of an older woman, who should be giving orders. The driver said, "Go to the Qin residence."

As soon as these three words came out, Ah Cheng's ears perked up.

The woman seemed to be a woman in charge, and her words were very important.After hearing her words, Yu Fu immediately responded.The voice of the woman in charge stopped, then rang again, still ordering the servants to work:
"You guys take good care of the things. This is a precious gift to the masters of the Qin clan. Even if a corner is missing, you can't afford it." The servants made noises repeatedly, but Ah Cheng was taken aback.

Qin Mansion?Ethnology?
This is really going to their Qin family.

Speaking of it, the Xiao family and the Qin family were very friendly at first, but later the Qin family kept their filial piety, and the Xiao family did not know why, and since then they have not visited the door again, and they have become a little estranged.

However, people from the Xiao family wanted to go to the Qin family today, and they also mentioned that they would give gifts to the masters of the Qin family, which really took a lot of thinking.

A Cheng folded his hands and walked forward, he could hear the sound of horseshoes behind him, but it was the guard who had called them back just now, walking back, and another man's voice said: "Boss, madam has come out."

It turned out to be Madam Xiao.

A Cheng had an idea in his mind.

Think about it too, if Mr. Xiao's family is going out, how could the person following the car be the woman in charge?And the carriage is really exquisite and small, it is indeed a carriage for the female relatives.

Thinking of this, Ah Cheng frowned again.

Mrs. Xiao personally visited the Qin family and gave gifts to the masters of the Qin family. How strange it sounds.

A Cheng felt that his head could not turn around.

At this time, he really wished he could stop and listen carefully, but unfortunately he couldn't. He could only slow down and walk forward as quietly as possible, listening to the movement behind him with his ears up.

The woman in charge didn't say a whole sentence after she finished playing with her prestige.A Cheng's ears have always been very sharp, and he vaguely heard a woman's soft voice coming from behind him. Every time the woman said a short sentence, the woman in charge would reply loudly, "Yes, ma'am."

Obviously, the woman with the soft voice is Mrs. Xiao, and the woman in charge is listening to her orders.

Mrs. Xiao didn't know what she said to the woman in charge, she kept talking for a long time, Ah Cheng was about to turn around the street, and his nose was sweating with anxiety.

But at this time, the voice of the woman in charge suddenly came from behind him, and she said: "Madam, why worry? It is the greatest sincerity that you take the initiative to come to the door. The children of the Xiao family go to the school attached to the Qin family. Mrs. Qin Tai will definitely accept the glory of the Qin family very happily."

She said this very complacently, and her voice was not low, at least Ah Cheng could hear it clearly.However, I only heard this sentence.

As soon as the steward's words fell, Mrs. Xiao said something in a low voice, as if to stop her, and then fell silent again.And Ah Cheng has already turned the corner at this moment, and the movement behind him can no longer be heard.Fortunately, this place was also far away from the sight of the team of guards, so he simply stopped, pretending to brush off the snow to adjust his clothes, and stood at the entrance of the alley to watch the movement.
