Chapter 163 Heading to the Northwest (2)
When Ji Cheng saw Shen Che at night, he couldn't help complaining: "I thought you had some good way to hide it from your family, but you are good. To be honest, why haven't I seen you have such advantages before? And , I am the one who is going to help you, so it sounds like you are taking me to play." This is really eye-catching, and there must be a lot of gossiping people behind it.

Shen Che shook his head and smiled and said, "You woman is so difficult to serve, isn't it good to tell the truth? All lies need to be covered by countless lies, and I feel tired. But when I can tell the truth, I usually don't lie. Besides, the old man For a person like Zuzu, if you tell her the truth about everything, she will be happier."

Ji Cheng raised his eyelids, is Shen Che teaching her how to coax the old lady?

"Hehe, when I can tell the truth, I never lie." Don't say that you are very principled, okay?

Shen Che said: "That's good. For a person like me, if you tell me the truth about everything, I will be happier."

Ji Cheng was silent, talking to Shen Che was the most thought-consuming, and he always felt that he meant something.

"When are we going to leave?" Ji Cheng changed the subject.

"Three days later." Shen Che said, "You can start to pack your luggage, and you don't need to bring your girl. The situation in the northwest is chaotic. If you don't protect it, it will hurt your master-servant relationship. I asked Nan Gui will follow you, but she is not good at serving people, I will give you another girl to take care of your daily life."

The next morning, the girl Shen Che had found for Ji Cheng came to her, obviously it wasn't a temporary arrangement, maybe she had already made preparations.

"What's your name?"

"The slave has no name, please give me a name."

Jing Shijun has a lot of business, and one of them is training maids for wealthy families. Bao Jun is satisfied with all kinds of skills.

"Then call it Lianzier." Ji Cheng said.Lotus seeds are painstaking, but they can clear the liver and improve eyesight.

This Lianzier is a capable person, even if Ji Cheng doesn't like that she is sent by Shen Che, but she can't hold back her frankness, everything that is entrusted to her will be handled properly for you, and there will be no she won't.

It's no wonder that Jing Shijun wants to sell girls, they are indeed conscientious merchants.

In the evening, when Ji Cheng was packing up her clothes, she was thinking that her dresses were too cumbersome, and it might not be convenient for her to ride a horse and walk in the northwest, so she asked Shen Che, "I'll go with you to the northwest, do you want to change my identity or something, is it convenient?" act?"

Shen Che raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's convenient for you?"

In fact, before Shen Che asked this question, Ji Cheng didn't realize that her brother Ziyun was in the northwest.

Ji Cheng stared and said, "I'm not as nasty as you think."

Shen Che withdrew his gaze from Ji Cheng's face, turned around and said, "If it's convenient, wear men's clothes."

Ji Cheng has always stocked men's clothes. Sometimes it's inconvenient for her to do business with a girl, so she will dress up as a man, but most of the time, she can't hide it from people's eyes. It's just a fig leaf, so everyone turns a blind eye. Only eyes.

It can't be said that Ji Cheng is wearing men's clothing, because he is tall and tall, and his eyebrows are drawn rough, he is really indistinguishable from male and female.In addition, Shen Che got a fake Adam's apple from somewhere, and it was hidden in the stand-up collar clothes. It's really not easy to find the flaws without careful observation.

Shen Che stood behind Ji Cheng, looked at her from the full-length mirror, slowly raised his hand and put it on Ji Cheng's shoulder: "I've always been curious..."

Before finishing his curious words, Shen Che's palm slid along the smooth silk shirt to Ji Cheng's chest, and pressed.

Ji Cheng raised his foot and stepped on Shen Che's instep.

Shen Che withdrew his hand in pain, and said with a smile: "The first time I saw it, I was always curious about how it was wrapped around my chest like a man."

Ji Cheng only replied three words to Shen Che bitterly: "Smelly rascal."

Shen Che has only considered a hooligan as a compliment: "I don't know if it has any influence or not. If it goes on like this and becomes a pancake, then it will be my fault."

Ji Cheng was absolutely thicker than Shen Che in this respect, he was so angry that he pointed at Shen Che's nose and was speechless for a long time.

"So when you have time, it's better to let it out to get some air." Shen Che gently pushed Ji Cheng's hand away, "Have you thought about changing your name? Is it still called Ah Cheng?"

"Why can't we just call him Ji Cheng, what works is done." Ji Cheng said.

Shen Che stroked his hair: "Well, yes, a good sign."

The news that Ji Cheng was going to go out with Shen Che to visit his master, who was always invisible, quickly spread in the Shen residence.Of course, seeing the master was just an excuse. Shen Che's master probably showed his bones, but everyone didn't know about it.

Taking a newly entered daughter-in-law to visit his master is still a reasonable excuse, so after Li Rui said a few sour words about Xianyan, only Xianyan was left.

Unexpectedly, on the day Ji Cheng and the others set off, Shen Cui made a fuss again.I forgot to mention a sentence, it turned out that Shen Cui's move to join her natal family on Ji Lan's birthday was unsuccessful, and the old lady sent someone back the next day, and she had to bear the cause of her own planting. result.

But last time Shen Cui came back crying, but this time she was very angry, and instead of going to Tiemao Alley, she came directly to Jiuliyuan.

The Jiuli Courtyard is divided into four floors, the lowest floor is the residence of the servants, along the mountain road is the Zhenyan Hall where Ji Cheng handles affairs, and further up is her residence, Woyunju, and the top is Shen Che’s. top courtyard.

Usually, the idlers would go up to the Zhenyan Hall at most. Shen Cui thought she was the fifth aunt of the Shen family, so she went straight up when she didn't see her master in the Zhenyan Hall.

Of course Nishang has to stop her, but Shen Cui used to be a little girly at home, but now she has learned to be like a shrew, regardless of her status, she collides with Nishang.

Luckily, Liu Ye'er rushed down after hearing the sound: "What are you doing, aunt? Look at the hot weather, you are sweating all over your head, please sit down and rest for a while, aunt, I have sent Yu Qian'er to find my girl."

"Where's my second brother?" Shen Cui asked angrily, but she stopped being snarky.

Liu Ye'er said: "Lang Jun left early in the morning."

"Send someone to find him and come back!" Shen Cui became hysterical again when she heard this.

Ji Chengben was bidding farewell in the old lady's house, and when he heard Yu Qian'er came to report, he left the old lady and went back to Jiuli courtyard.

As soon as Shen Cui saw Ji Cheng, she came up to meet him: "Sister Cheng, how did I offend you? Are you going to treat me like this?"

Ji Cheng was confused when he heard this: "What's wrong, A Cui?"

Shen Cui couldn't hide his words, and fell out of the way, Ji Cheng knew that Qi Zheng had just obtained the position of commander of the Wucheng Army and Horse Commander not long ago, but now he has been recruited and suspended pending release. The news he inquired is, This matter was instigated by someone from the Shen family, who pointed the finger at Shen Che.

"Sister Cheng, even if you hate that big brother Qi didn't take a fancy to you back then, it's been so many years, can you still not let it go? Why do you want to push second brother to spoil big brother Qi's job? You are like this, tell me to return to you in the future Why do you hold your head up in the Qi family? You only think about yourself, don't you care about my feelings at all?" Shen Cui said tearfully.

Ji Cheng originally thought that Shen Cui had changed over the years, at least he became more rational, but he didn't know that it was just a superficial change, and he was still the same person who couldn't tell the good from the bad.Qi Zheng was so angry that she wanted to move back to her natal family, and turned around to blame them for standing up for her. With such behavior, it is no wonder that when she cried that day, except for Ji Lan, who had a little pity, no one answered.

Although Ji Cheng was too lazy to take care of Shen Cui's affairs, he couldn't help that he had a good second brother.When Ji Cheng thought of his previous grudges, he couldn't help scolding Shen Che to death.

Ji Cheng said with a cold face: "I don't know about this matter, you can ask your second brother yourself when he comes back. And don't say that there is nothing, you were undisciplined before getting married, and you kept pouring dirt on me Shui. Shen Cui, if you talk nonsense again, I don't mind telling all about your dirty things. "

"You..." Shen Cui stopped immediately, she didn't expect that Ji Cheng, who was always soft, would be so tough.

But Ji Cheng is not a soft bun, he was only scruples about Shen Che back then, but now Ji Cheng has much less scruples, and it is definitely a benefit of marrying Shen Che.

Since she was leaving for the northwest today, Shen Cui was lucky and did not wait long for Shen Che to come back.Facing Shen Che, she didn't dare to be as straightforward as she was to Ji Cheng just now, and said aggrievedly with red eyes: "Second brother."

Shen Che sat down on the chair, flicked the non-existent ashes on his robe, looked at Shen Cui and said, "I know what you want to say, but Qi Zheng has a bad temper. He has already had the ginseng, and we used to say a few words for him because of the affection of relatives. But now that his eldest son is about to come out, why has he considered the affection of relatives?"

"But..." Shen Cui muttered, "Brother Qi will neglect me."

Shen Che didn't bother to pay attention to Shen Cui's affairs in the room, but there was a little bit of the same blood in her veins, and seeing her so stupid, she couldn't help but mention something: "He doesn't know. If there is anything to do, let's wait until the elder brother triumphs."

Shen Cui's wish was not fulfilled, and she held her breath in her heart, but she didn't dare to get angry at Shen Che, he is the overlord of the family, who would dare to speak loudly to him?Undoubtedly, Shen Cui felt that he and his wife should be put in some trouble, so as not to appear as if she was the only one living in dire straits.

Shen Cui took a breath, wiped away her tears and said, "Second Brother, did you hear something that made you align with Big Brother like this? Big Brother Qi has always been motivated, but he couldn't resist someone deliberately slandering him." Shen Cui secretly glanced at Glancing at Shen Che, seeing that he didn't respond, he continued to apply eye drops and said, "Even when Sister Cheng lived in our house, she was very happy to associate with Brother Qi, otherwise she wouldn't have jumped into the water to save Sister Qi Hua , Later, because of my mother-in-law's illness, she was willing to take out the treasure of Changchun Hall."

Look, Shen Cui has learned to be smart, there are really no lies in these words.It's just that when Ji Cheng rescued Qi Hua, he didn't even know there was such a person as Qi Zheng.And she also charged money for giving the thousand-year-old ginseng to the Qi family. Although it was a little cheaper, she didn't give it in the end, right?
Shen Che looked into Shen Cui's eyes and said only one sentence: "Ah Cui, don't come to Jiuliyuan again in the future."

Shen Cui was stunned and aggrieved, but looking into Shen Che's eyes, her feet trembled for some reason, and finally ran away throwing away her helmet and armor.

From the capital to the north, there is a road before leaving the customs, which can accommodate four carriages in parallel, so Ji Cheng can sit safely in a rather luxurious carriage, holding green tea in his hand.

The tea is carefully brewed and warmed in the tea bucket. Although it does not have the fragrance of freshly brewed tea, it is still pleasant.

It's just that what Shen Che said was a little annoying.

"You actually had a crush on Qi Da at the beginning? You really don't choose." Shen Che said with a mocking smile from the corner of his mouth.

Just as Ji Cheng took a sip of water, Shen Che's words made him choke into his trachea, and he coughed until tears came out.

Shen Che moved over to sit next to Ji Cheng, raised his hand and patted her on the back: "Why are you so anxious? It is understandable to be stupid when you are young and ignorant."

Ji Cheng looked at Shen Che flushed with choking, his eyes were watery, really pitiful.

Shen Che leaned down, took the cherry pink lips in his mouth, and bit them mercilessly, with a hint of venting his anger.

Ji Cheng frantically pulled up his skirt to cover it up, panted and brushed his temple hair with his hands, while Shen Che was wiping the blood on his lips with his thumb.

Shen Che stretched out his hand to pinch Ji Cheng's chin, forcing her to open her mouth slightly: "You little canine teeth are quite sharp."

Shen Che chuckled, and stroked Ji Cheng's lips with his thumb: "Qi Da is really blind. He chose Shen Cui at the beginning. Such a person without vision is a waste even if he is supported."

Ji Cheng curled his lips and said, "So you got him down? What's wrong with picking A Cui? Doesn't she still have a good brother like you? Protect her everywhere."

Shen Che lowered his head, put the tip of his nose against Ji Cheng's and said, "I seem to smell vinegar." Shen Che clicked his tongue twice, "You drink dry vinegar really well, you even eat Shen Cui's vinegar."

Ji Cheng said nothing, but turned his head away from Shen Che.She was really unhappy about Shen Cui's matter in her heart, maybe it could be regarded as jealousy, jealous of Shen Che's unconditional protection of Shen Cui.This has nothing to do with love, but rather emotional comparison with what happened to him.

After all, Ji Cheng still couldn't hold back the words in his heart: "If you help Ah Cui like this, she may not be grateful to you, so why don't she blame you instead today?"

Shen Che gently inserted his fingers into Ji Cheng's loose hair, and stroked it slowly: "I don't need her to be grateful, and I don't expect her to reciprocate. But as long as she is from the Shen family, she won't allow outsiders to bully her."
