Chapter 85 Perfect Miss
After more than ten days of preparation, Su Mei's jewelry shop finally reopened and was renamed Liujin Pavilion. The jewelry in the shop is all the latest styles, all of which are popular in the capital.

But the whole day passed, but no customer came in. After all, the jewelry shop on this street has not been patronized for many years. The business of An's jewelry shop opposite is booming, and there is a bustling crowd, but there is not even half a person in front of the Liujin Pavilion. .

Jin Chuan suddenly felt dejected, she wiped the table again, and when the sun went down, she saw no one coming, so she said to Su Mei: "Girl, today is the first day of opening of the shop, but there is not even a single person there. The customers all went to the shop opposite."

Of course Su Mei saw it too, sitting in the shop and waiting, she was afraid that all the money used to prepare the goods would be lost, instead of waiting like this, she might as well go out and look for customers.

She said to Jin Chuan: "The door is closed today, and it will be closed for a day. Let's go out for a walk and go out to find customers."

It was the first time Jin Chuan heard that the owner of the shop could take the initiative to go out to find customers, so he asked suspiciously: "I don't know what the girl plans to do?"

Su Mei smiled mysteriously and said, "I haven't been back to Anlefang for a long time, let's go to Anlefang today. Speaking of which, Nanny Li saved my life!"

She has been so busy these past few days, but once she is free, the tension in her heart is loosened, and memories flood in like a tide. She remembered meeting Jiang Ling in Anlefang after losing her memory, and remembered Jiang Ling's pale and ugly face made her heart ache unbearably.

They can be enemies, they can be strangers, but they can't be that kind of relationship.

That arrow pierced his chest, but there was no news about his injury from Yangzhou City. Presumably, the arrow failed to kill him. Su Mei frowned deeply, suppressing the sour emotions in her heart, only hating You can't kill him with your own hands.

"What would Zhen'er want to eat today? I'll go back and make it for Zhen'er."

Liu Changxin interrupted Su Mei's thoughts, Su Mei looked back and smiled and said, "Don't bother second cousin today, Jin Chuan and I are getting ready to go out."

Liu Changxin nodded and said with a smile: "Then Zhen'er just feel free to go, I will guard in the shop, I bought a few fresh river fish in the street this morning, the fish is tender and delicious, and it is most suitable for making soup. Go and prepare fish soup for Zhen'er."

Su Mei smiled and nodded, seeing Liu Changxin's blushing face and serious expression, she sighed in her heart, "Thank you second cousin."

Until Su Mei went out and got into the carriage, that gaze seemed to be glued to her body, never leaving for a moment.

Jin Chuan glanced back at Liu Changxin, his face became more and more red, and he quickly lowered his head and lowered his eyes.

"Girl, Mr. Liu's eyeballs are about to fall off."

Su Mei said angrily, "Keep your voice down, don't let the second cousin hear him, he is honest and shy easily, don't make fun of him."

The carriage drove slowly, and Jin Chuan looked at Su Mei's face and asked, "Does the girl think Mr. Liu is very pitiful, so she left him to help in the shop?"

Su Mei couldn't help frowning slightly, she sympathized with the second cousin's situation from the bottom of her heart, he was covered with old and faded clothes, while Liu Jiaying and He Shi wore bright clothes and were extravagant.

Uncle and second cousin are honest and honest people, but they were bullied by He Shi, especially uncle, the Liu family used to be rich and never treated He Shi badly. He didn't care about his uncle's face.

Because of He Shi's eccentricity and uncle's good temper, the second cousin was treated poorly everywhere, and was overwhelmed by his bastard brother and unreasonable younger sister. His bastard brother died in the capital, and he became The target of He's beating and scolding.

Su Mei thought of her uncle's old and haggard face, her eyes were red and she shed tears.

"Although the second cousin is not good at doing business, he also has his advantages. He should not be treated lightly, let alone be beaten and scolded by He Shi at will. I can only keep him in the shop. I can help him. Very little, no matter how much, I can't give it."

It's a pity that my uncle doesn't know how to do business at all, and my second cousin can only do some simple work with his uncle, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to support the entire Liu family in the future.

It's not that she can't see the second cousin's feelings for her, but she has no intention of liu changxin at all, she only keeps him because she sympathizes with him, and she never thinks about marrying again.

What's more, for a family like the Liu family, if she married, she would have to fight the mother and daughter of the He family.

Help if you can, but she is also a person who can't be twisted. She sighed and said: "I will find a chance to make it clear to my second cousin, let's go."

The carriage moved forward slowly, heading for An Le Fang at the end of Anning Street.

At the same time, a carriage passed by Su Mei's carriage. Jiang Ling had been looking for someone non-stop for more than ten days, but when no one was found, Jiang Ling's face became more and more ugly.

God knows how cunning Su Mei is, Su Mei is clearly going south by boat, and the people sent by Mu Feng found Su Mei's trace on the official road to Jinzhou.

He and the general went to Jinzhou, and later got the news from the Yamen of Yangzhou Prefecture, saying that someone found Su Mei and Jin Chuan appearing together by the river outside Yangzhou City, and bought it for two taels of silver. Two unclaimed female corpses.

It took them more than ten days to catch up to Yangzhou. Mu Feng used to think that Su Mei, a gentle and weak woman, was even more cunning and difficult to deal with than a man.

"The general should rest here for one night and look for it tomorrow."

Jiang Ling's face was gloomy, his eyes were cold and stern, and even his lips were pale. Although he had taken the medicine on time these few days, Mu Feng knew that Jiang Ling's injury was getting worse and worse. On the way, with injuries on his body, even his body of iron can't bear it.

"Is there any news?"

Mu Feng cupped his hands and said, "Returning to the general, since our people entered Yangzhou City, we haven't found any news about Miss Su."

Jiang Ling waved her hands irritably, "Keep looking."

His intuition told him that he was very close to Su Mei, but if Su Mei deliberately avoided him, he might not be able to find her with any certainty.

The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and the lanterns on the streets are like daytime. At this time, the prosperity and bustle of Yangzhou City even surpasses that of the capital city.

Looking at the endless stream of people and horses and horses, Jiang Ling felt helpless desolation and irritability in her heart.

After Su Mei left, Liu Changxin counted the jewelry in the shop again. There was a gust of wind outside, and the mist and rain enveloped Yangzhou City. He quickly hugged Su Mei's cloak embroidered with pear flowers, took an umbrella, closed the door and ran out.

After he went out, he realized that he had forgotten to ask where Su Mei had gone, so he said to his two young men: "Hurry up and search separately, maybe Zhen'er has come back by now."

He was about to hand over the cloak and umbrella to the boy, but he was worried, so he hurried to go with them.

Jiang Ling vaguely seemed to hear someone calling Zhen'er, he jumped out of the carriage regardless of the pain, and swept the cloak from the man opposite him.

The man got on his horse and galloped past.

That gust of wind was mixed with a faintly sweet scent of pear blossoms, blowing towards my face.

There should be no pear blossoms in this season, and the fragrance of pear blossoms must be the incense left on the clothes.

Jiang Ling didn't have time to think about it, so she rushed out in the rain to find the source of the fragrance.
