peasant young lady

Chapter 50
Cheng Xia took a bite of the delicious steamed stuffed bun, said goodbye to the boss quickly, turned around and chased after Liu Wen.

Liu Wen walked in a hurry, as if he was in a hurry, Cheng Xia trotted after him, and nearly lost him.Liu Wen was in a hurry all the way, the more Cheng Xia followed him, the more he felt that things were not easy. Liu Wen kept looking back, feeling afraid of being followed.

But Cheng Xia was sure that he hadn't been discovered.So, who is Liu Wen hiding from?
After chasing for two streets, I saw Liu Wen stopped in front of a big house, and looked carefully at the alley before knocking on the door. Cheng Xia was so scared that he quickly retracted his head when he heard Liu Wen's knock. door noise.

Cheng Xia continued squinting, and after a while, a man dressed as a butler came out, opened the door and saw that it was Liu Wen, and closed the door before he stepped out.When Liu Wen saw it, he quickly blocked in the crack of the door, and looked at the man with a playful smile, "Old housekeeper, please don't close the door, I'm here to see the second uncle this time, please tell me that I have something important to do." Tell your uncle."

The old butler waved his hand as if he disliked trash, "What do you have to say? It was agreed to collect all the money five days ago. Now it's good. It's a waste of the master's time. The master said that as long as you come, you won't let it go." You go in. Don't talk about your second uncle, what kind of second uncle is your second uncle, who is far away from five clothes. Let's go, don't disturb my work."

Wufu is the ancient mourning clothing system, which originated in China, and later spread to Southeast Asia, Korea, Japan, etc., that is, the mourning clothing system.

Wufu refers to brothers and sisters, parents (including aunts and uncles and other blood relatives), grandparents, great-grandfathers, and five generations of great-grandfathers. Speaking of Wufu means that the relationship is far away.

Cheng Xia has also heard the saying that the rich are no more than three generations old and the poor are no more than five generations old.

The old housekeeper said so, that is to say, Liu Wen has a distant relationship with this family, but they don't want to admit it.

Cheng Xia continued to listen with his ears pricked up, and saw Liu Wen licking his face and continuing to say, "Master, please do me a favor, this is the fifth service, and I am also a relative. I am really trying to figure out a way, so I will trouble my second uncle to see you." I'll tell him face to face."

"Liu Wen, you are a scholar after all, how can you be so shameless," the old housekeeper opened the door, and began to scold Liu Wen, "It is agreed to bring the money over when the time comes, if you delay, my family The master didn't send you to the government for investigation, it was because of his distant relatives, now my master has lost his patience and started looking for someone else, don't come, the master won't see you again, get out of here."

After the old butler finished speaking, he kicked Liu Wen's knee fiercely, and then slammed the door shut.

The old housekeeper entered the door, and the flattering smile on Liu Wen's face disappeared instantly. Cheng Xia's body trembled instantly due to the sinister gaze, and she watched Liu Wen kick the tall gate several times. , Then he kicked the stone lion next to the gate a few times, spit a few mouthfuls, and then turned around cursing and leaving.

The gentleness of this scholar is really corrupted.

Watching Liu Wen turn around and disappear into the alley on the other side, Cheng Xia quickly swallowed the last bite of plain steamed stuffed bun, and hurriedly chased after him.

Liu Wen walked more cautiously this time than before, and his path became more and more deviant. Cheng Xia felt that she would be discovered if she continued to follow. Just when she was a little apprehensive, Liu Wen finally stopped.

Only then did Cheng Xia start to look around at the surroundings. She felt that this place was out of the bustling area of ​​Chong'an County, and more like a small village on the edge of the city center.

But what did Liu Wen come here for? Didn't he say that his parents died without any relatives and no reason, and there was only one mentor who brought him up?Could it be that his mentor lives in this small place?There are not many families on the left and right, the place is desolate, and the houses are very dilapidated. It is ungrateful for him to let his teacher live here.

Besides, seeing a mentor wouldn't make such a sneaky move.

Cheng Xia hid behind a small thatched thatched hut nearby, and saw Liu Wen knock on the door a few times before the door opened, and a woman with an enchanting figure and twisting the waist of a water snake came out, and directly pulled Liu Wen in, Liu Wen With a wicked smile, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her a few times, pinched her fat buttocks ambiguously, then kicked the door and left.

Cheng Xia could no longer restrain her agitated heart, her whole heart was beating non-stop. Cheng Shang just said that she was afraid that Liu Wen would raise a woman outside, and she saw this scene.

Who is this woman who lives in such a remote place?And the wealthy family in the high-end compound just now, what kind of deal does Liu Wen want to make with him?Is there any connection between the two?

Cheng Xia felt that she was about to become Sherlock Holmes. Although she seemed to have nothing to do with her for the time being, she was always flustered, fearing that Liu Wen's claws would reach out to her.

Cheng Xia was debating whether to go back by herself or go to the past to inquire about the woman's background, but before she could confuse much, she saw Liu Wen straighten his clothes and go out. / Love is too fast, it can't be impossible.

Liu Wen touched the woman's bulging chest in a treacherous manner, then reluctantly closed the door and left.

But looking at him as if he had solved some major life event, his mood was not as depressed as when he came here, but he hummed a ditty happily.

Cheng Xia followed him far away, in such a wilderness, if she was found, she would definitely be destroyed.

After finally arriving at the bustling market, Cheng Xia felt that she was already drenched in cold sweat, as if being fished out of a steam room, and felt that her underwear was soaked through.

Following Liu Wen to Cheng Shangzai's jewelry store, he saw Cheng Shang looking around at the door, feeling extremely anxious.

Liu Wen hurried over and smiled, "My lady, I'm in a hurry. I just met a classmate, so I chatted for a while, my lady, forgive me."

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Cheng Shang raised his hand and hit Liu Wen on the chest shyly and angrily, and then the two walked away together.

Cheng Xia felt a chill again, looked up and saw that the sun had already occupied the top of his head, it should have passed the hour agreed with Lin Xiu, Cheng Xia hurried back.

She didn't buy any of the things she wanted to buy, she was really dying.I don't know if Uncle Tian is in a hurry to go back, but if Uncle Tian is not in a hurry, he is afraid that the three aunts who don't like her will find trouble.

Before she had time to think about it, Cheng Xia hurried to the Tianyou Grocery Store where she bought white and brown sugar last time. She wondered if the Tianyou Restaurant and the Tianyou Grocery Store had anything to do with each other, they both had the same name.

Cheng Xia did the math, and gave Lin Xiu 64 Wen, and spent 680 Wen to buy the buns, a total of 160 Wen, so now there are only [-] Liu Wen left.Entering the grocery store, Cheng Xia directly ordered forty catties of white sugar and ten catties of brown sugar, so that when he went out, there were ten more bags of sugar in the back basket, but only [-] Liuwen was left.

Cheng Xia tapped the money bag that was half light in an instant, and looked carefully and found that the money bag given by the shopkeeper was not bad, embroidered with gold and silver threads, it was unique and very beautiful.

Cheng Xia didn't want to save money at first, anyway, the more he spends, the more he will earn.Thinking of this, Cheng Xia weighed and bought a few catties of pork from the butcher shop, mainly to buy a little rice and white noodles, and the family ate coarse grains every day, how could Yang Dalang's body be recuperated, and Xiaolong's health was not good.

On the way back, I bought some good rice paper, gave some to Yang Dalang, and used some for myself.

Just thinking about buying something for herself, she saw Lin Xiu and Yang Lihua walking towards her anxiously, Yang Lihua looked at Cheng Xia with a slight complaint, "Sister-in-law, why did you go, my second sister-in-law and I are looking for I have been with you for a long time, and I have turned around several streets twice, so I thought you ran away?" Yang Lihua couldn't help but feel a little lingering fear when she said that.

If I knew it earlier, I should have followed her. If I really ran away, where would I cry?

"Okay, I'm fine," Cheng Xia saw that beads of sweat were dripping on Lin Xiu's anxious forehead, but Yang Lihua didn't blush and was not out of breath, and Lin Xiu might be the one who was looking for someone, so she just watched from the side.Cheng Xia shook Lin Xiu's hand and smiled comfortingly, "Let's go home now."

Lin Xiu couldn't stop nodding, "Hey, sister-in-law, let's go, those three aunts are waiting impatiently and have been urging."

"Okay," Cheng Xia followed Lin Xiu back, but Yang Lihua was nowhere to be seen when she turned around. She was standing in front of a small stall selling rouge and gouache, unable to look away, blinking her eyes, wanting to reach out but not daring.

Cheng Xia looked sideways at Lin Xiu, "Do you have any money left?"

Lin Xiu shook his head embarrassingly, "Sister-in-law spent all of it, bought a hairpin and earrings for herself, tore out half a piece of cloth, and bought a bottle of white wine for dad, and there was nothing left."

"Didn't I give you the money? Why did you give it to her when she asked you to buy things?" Cheng Xia said bitterly. Lin Xiu's temperament is too soft, and anyone can handle it. Do people bully?
Cheng Xia sighed and said nothing, but walked slowly to Yang Lihua's side, "Aren't you in a hurry to go back?"

Yang Lihua looked at Cheng Xia with a winking smile, "Sister-in-law, you see that the three of us don't have any rouge and powder, even if we don't even have a lip balm, it's not very good. Why don't you buy some, we use it together .”

Cheng Xia took a look at the lip balm sold by the hawker, the color was uneven, it looked very inferior, and she could tell that it would not be good to use, but she wanted to ask, "Little boss, how do you sell this lip balm?" ?”

The peddler saw the show, and quickly introduced it with joy, "Little lady, I brought this lipstick all the way from Jianning Mansion. It is only used by the ladies of the rich family in Jianning Mansion, and ordinary people can't use it. I Looking at the handsome appearance of the three little ladies, with this lipstick and rouge and brows, I am sure that they are more beautiful than the gods, no, no, even the queen mother and empress in the sky can't compare."

Going too far, this little brother is too exaggerated.

"Just tell me how much it is?" Cheng Xia asked directly.

The little brother saw that this is a customer who pays money, and instantly turned all his eyes on Cheng Xia, "Little lady, I really want to buy it when I see you, so how about it, I won't count it expensive for you, just buy it." Sell ​​it to you at the cheapest purchase price, this price." The little brother made a gesture of ten.

Lin Xiu was surprised for a moment. This thing is so expensive. It’s just a piece of lip balm. It’s as thin as a piece of paper. It can be used several times. She might as well buy some rice noodles.

I wanted to remind my sister-in-law not to let her spend money recklessly. After all, my sister-in-law didn't seem to know what is expensive, so Cheng Xia pulled Yang Lihua and continued walking without any hesitation.

"Sister-in-law, buy me one to try." Yang Lihua begged with her mouth puffed up.

"Don't try, I'll make it for you when I get home."
