The Rebirth of Space: the Lucky Girl From a Farm Family

Chapter 158 Chance Encounter 2

The landlord saw that Hua Ruiming was waiting for Wan'er to take his heart. Although he did not say that he patronized the Qunfanglou every day, he would never let Wan'er pick up other guests.

Yu Wan'er grew up in Qunfang Building and knows the rules of the building very well.

So from the day she combed her hair, she tried her best to please Hua Ruiming, just so that Hua Ruiming could put her in his heart. Even if he didn't redeem her life, as long as Hua Ruiming often came to Qunfang Building, the host would not Make things difficult for her.

 Hence, Yu Wan'er can detect anything a little bit wrong with Hua Ruiming's mood.

Seeing that Hua Ruiming was about to leave, Yu Wan'er stepped forward to hold Hua Ruiming's hand and said coquettishly: "I promised my family that I will have dinner with my family today. My family asked the kitchen to make the fragrant pigeon that I like to eat. Also, I still want to feed you wine like I did last time.”

With that said, Yu Wan'er raised her arms and put her arms around Hua Ruiming's neck, hanging on him as softly as if there were no bones, and looked up at him lovingly.

Hua Ruiming lowered his head and looked at Yu Waner, who winked at him and said coquettishly: "Master, are you okay? Huh?"

How could Hua Ruiming, a hot-blooded young man, be able to withstand this? Immediately he picked up Wan'er and walked towards the back room.

While they were lingering, the image of Chen Xue glaring at him angrily appeared in his mind. Hua Ruiming suddenly lost interest, rolled out of bed, and said while arranging his clothes: "I have something to do, so I'll leave now and come back another day."

Wan'er watched Hua Ruiming leave in shock, unable to recover for a long time.

Chen Xue, who was on the carriage, repeatedly reflected in her mind the image of Yu Wan'er weakly and bonelessly falling on Hua Ruiming, and she was so angry that she crushed the almonds in her hand.

 When Liu'er saw it, he secretly changed the almonds in the fruit box into walnuts.

 Chen Xue reached out to grab the almonds in a daze. She caught two walnuts and squeezed them in her hands. She squeezed her hands hard and there was a "click" sound, and the walnuts split.

This "click" sound brought Chen Xue back to his senses.

 Chen Xue lowered her head to look at the walnuts in her hand, then turned to look at Liu'er. Asked: "Why did it become a walnut?"

Liu'er chuckled dryly, "It's a pity to crush the almonds. Anyway, the lady wants to vent, so she might as well crush the walnuts. This saves Madam Ma from having to hit them one by one with a hammer when peeling the walnuts."

Chen Xue threw the walnuts into the fruit box, then picked up the walnuts and continued to squeeze them.

　　asked: “Walnuts are difficult to peel, why don’t you buy them ready-made?”

While picking up the cracked walnuts, Liu'er replied: "Mr. Ma said that they have to be freshly peeled to be fresh and delicious. She also said that the harder it is to peel, the more fragrant it is, and the slaves don't understand what a shelled walnut is called. These."

Chen Xue stopped talking and pinched the walnuts in the food box as if they were Hua Ruiming's head.

Liu'er didn't say much anymore and sat silently by the side handing out walnuts.

 Chen Xue felt a fire in her heart. She pinched a handful of walnuts and even after going to Ci'en Temple to burn incense, she still couldn't calm down.

So they started to go around in the temple, and when they turned to the Ksitigarbha Hall, the young novice came over and informed him: "Donor, it's getting late, and the temple will be closed to thank guests."

Chen Xue bowed to the little novice monk in return, and took Liu'er out of the temple.

Ding Si stood outside the temple, tiptoed to look inside. When he saw the two people coming out, he hurriedly shouted: "Miss, get in the car quickly. It's very dark, I'm afraid it's going to snow heavily again."

 Chen Xue looked up at the sky and saw that the sky was dark and yellow. Said: "Okay, here we go."

Ding Si waited for Chen Xue and Liuer to get into the car, whipped up his whip and drove back.

 The car had just started for a short while, and snow began to fall in the sky.

Ding Si looked at the large swaths of snowflakes. He said: "It has started to rain. It was so heavy at the beginning. If it rains all night, this road may not be passable."

Chen Xue lifted the curtain to take a look and ordered: "Hurry up and get home early, otherwise my parents will be worried."

Ding Si nodded in agreement, gave the horse a whip, and said: "Drive!"

The carriage suddenly went much faster, but at the corner at the foot of the mountain, it collided with a carriage going up the mountain and knocked over the other carriage.

Ruxuan stood up, quickly helped Lu Ziqin out of the car, and asked, "Sir, are you hurt?"

 Lv Ziqin rubbed his right shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's okay."

Ding Si was so frightened that he lost his mind.

Ruxuan turned around and yelled at him: "Can you drive a car? You don't know how to slow down when going downhill and turning?"

 Speaking, Ruxuan raised his hand to greet Ding Si.

Chen Xue just got out of the car with Liu'er and saw Ruxuan beating Dingsi. She stepped forward and pulled Dingsi behind her, and raised her right hand to block Ruxuan's hand.

Ruxuan was just angry and wanted to vent his anger without using much force on his hands.

 Chen Xue's raised right hand not only blocked his hand, but also made him take two steps back.

Ruxuan's anger was ignited like a firecracker, and he cursed: "Damn it, you are going on such a rampage, but you still want to hit someone?" Ruxuan cursed and attacked Chen Xue.

Chen Xue dodged left and right, avoiding Ruxuan's fists and kicks.

Lu Ziqin stood on the side and watched without stopping.

Liu'er was so frightened that he almost cried. He stamped his feet and shouted, "Miss, be careful."

Turning to Ding Si, he said: "What should I do? What should I do? If Miss is injured, your life and mine will be dead."

Seeing that the opponent was avoiding his attack, Ruxuan's fists and kicks increased by two minutes. In a moment, the two sides exchanged dozens of blows.

 Chen Xue's dodge obviously slowed down, and she saw that Ruxuan's palm was about to hit Chen Xue.

Lu Ziqin shouted: "Stop!"

Ruxuan took his hand back abruptly, stepped aside, and shouted respectfully: "Master!"

Lu Ziqin said: "Hold the car up first."

Ruxuan walked to the carriage, turned around and yelled at Ding Si, "What are you doing standing here? Why don't you come over and help?"

Ding Si looked at Lu Ziqin and then at Chen Xue.

Chen Xue said: "Go and help."

Ding Si nodded in agreement and turned to help.

Chen Xue greeted Lu Ziqinfu and said, "I'm sorry, my people didn't drive the car well and hit the young master.

　　　We will pay whatever compensation is due for crashing the Young Master's carriage.

It's just that the little girl didn't bring enough silver today. Please send someone to the Chen Mansion in Yulan Lane, West Street, to get the silver. "

Chen Song is just Hua Xu's staff, and the posts from the Beijing Family Literary Society Hua Hui will not be delivered to people like Chen Mansion.

 Hence, Chen Xue did not know Lu Ziqin.

Lu Ziqin was slightly startled, Chen Mansion, Yulan Lane, West Street? The person in front of me is Chen Song's daughter?

 Lv Ziqin looked at Chen Xue and asked, "Why is the girl in such a hurry to catch the car?"

Chen Xue leaned back and said, "It's snowing heavily. I was afraid that my family would be worried, so I asked Ding Si to drive the car faster. But I didn't want to be in a hurry and cause chaos. I'm sorry."

Lu Ziqin felt in a trance when he looked at Chen Xue, who knew etiquette and integrity. Is this the daughter trained by the cruel and cold-hearted Chen Song?

 Chen Xue saw Lu Ziqin stunned and shouted: "Young Master!"

Lu Ziqin came to his senses and said, "It's snowing and the ground is slippery. It's easy to get into trouble if you drive too fast. Be careful in the future."

Chen Xuefu thanked him, "Thank you, sir. I have taken note of it. What is your surname? How should I call you?"

Lu Ziqin didn't want to say more, but thinking of Chen Song, he changed his mind temporarily. He said: "Excuse me, my surname is Lu."

Chen Xuefu said: "Good sir, Mr. Lu, my little girl's surname is Chen, with the character for snow in her name."

Lu Ziqin cupped his hands and bowed and said, "Hello, Miss Chen."

Chen Xue responded with a smile: "Okay, okay, Mr. Lu is very skilled. I wonder if I can compete with him someday?"

 Chen Xue looked at Ruxuan.

Lu Ziqin smiled, but did not agree, but asked: "Miss Chen's skills are good. Is it from her family or from a famous family?"

Chen Xue thought for a while and said: "It's considered a family study, but it can also be considered a famous teacher."

Grand Master Deng Jiayu’s Iron Sand Palm is well-known in the world, and the Second Master Chen Liang’s Warsaw Sword is also famous in the world.

 The two masters are from well-known families in the world.

Lu Ziqin smiled and said, "Oh? It seems that Miss Chen is not simple."

Chen Xue smiled and replied: "Masters are great, but little girls are just average."

"Masters? Miss Chen has more than one master?" Lu Ziqin asked.

Chen Xue was simple and didn't think much. She stretched out **** and replied: "Not many, just two people."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that he had said something wrong, so he changed his **** to three, "Including the little girl's father, there should be three masters."

Lu Ziqin knew it clearly. It seemed that Chen Xue’s masters were Deng Jiayu and Chen Liang.

Lu Ziqin probed: "It's Chinese New Year, why did Miss Chen come to Ci'en Temple? Is she here to offer incense?"

Chen Xue nodded and said: "The little girl's master is ill. The little girl came to offer incense and ask for the blessings of Bodhisattva so that the master can recover as soon as possible.

Mr. Lu also came to offer incense, but it was too late now. The temple has closed its doors to thank visitors. "

 Lv Ziqin shook his head, "I'm not here to offer incense, I'm here to visit a friend."

There are many families living around Ci'en Temple, and these families depend on the temple.

On weekdays, incense, candles, red string pendants, etc. are sold at the entrance of the temple for pilgrims who come to offer incense to buy back as souvenirs.

Chen Xue thought that Lu Ziqin was here to visit relatives, so she nodded and said "oh".

Over there, Ruxuan straightened the carriage, checked it carefully, and said to Lu Ziqin: "Sir, the carriage is fine."

Lu Ziqin nodded and said, "Okay, let's get on our way."

 Speaking, Lu Ziqin bowed his hands to Chen Xue and said goodbye.

Chen Xue said: "Master Lu, see how much compensation is needed and have someone come to Yulan Lane to get it."

Lu Ziqin waved his hand, "No, the car is not damaged and no compensation is needed. Let's say goodbye. Miss Chen, be careful on the road."

Chen Xuefu said: "Thank you Mr. Lu, see you later."

Lu Ziqin got on the car, and Ru Xuan pointed the whip in his hand at Ding Si and said: "You bastard, drive well. On a snowy day, be safe rather than fast, you know?"

Ding Si bowed and said, "Thank you, brother. I'll take note of it."

 Lv Ziqin's car drove away, but Liu'er still couldn't take his eyes back.

Chen Xue raised her hand and waved it in front of Liu'er's eyes and asked, "What are you looking at? I've lost my soul."

Liu'er came back to his senses, looked at Chen Xue excitedly, and said, "Miss, Mr. Lu just now was very good-looking, with a high nose and a face like a crown jewel..."

Chen Xue tilted her head and looked at Liu'er.

Liu'er took two steps back and asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"

Chen Xue said: "Let me take a good look at your nymphomaniac look!"

Liu'er blushed and said, "Miss, don't you think Mr. Lu is good-looking? I think Mr. Lu is ten times more handsome than Mr. Ming, no, a hundred times..."

 Chen Xue raised her hand and gritted her teeth and said, "Liu'er, you ask for a beating!"

Liu'er took two more steps to the side and apologized: "I'm sorry, miss, I said something I shouldn't have said.

But Mr. Lu is really better looking than Mr. Ming. Let's stop making trouble. It's going to be dark soon. We have to go back home quickly, otherwise, my wife will be worried. "

 Chen Xue didn't want to worry her mother, so she turned around and boarded the carriage, leaned in the carriage, thinking about Lu Ziqin's appearance, and murmured: "Master Lu is indeed better looking than that pig."

Liu'er heard this, pursed his lips and said, "That's right! Mr. Lu is really good-looking. It's the first time I've seen such a good-looking person. He looks good, speaks well, and moves and moves people can't take their eyes away.

It would be great if a slave could serve such a master. Just looking at it makes me feel extremely happy. "

Chen Xue glanced sideways at Liu'er and said contemptuously: "It's time to make a career!"

Liu'er smiled and said in a daze: "Master Lu is really good-looking."

 Chen Xue leaned against the car, looked at the roof, and murmured: "But I still like that pig in my heart."

Liu'er stopped laughing and poured a cup of tea for Chen Xue, "What's so good about Mr. Ming? He spends all day in flower houses and doesn't do his job. Why would the young lady like him? The young lady doesn't feel wronged, and the servants feel wronged by the young lady."

Chen Xue said nothing and stared at the roof of the car blankly.

 Liu'er stopped talking and stayed by Chen Xue's side quietly.

 Ruxuan drove the car for a while and said, "Sir, Chen Xue's skills are pretty good."

Lu Ziqin nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I saw it."

 Ruxuan said: "Look back, do you need to check?"

Lu Ziqin thought for a while and said, "Chen Song protected it very well. We didn't know about it before. Let's check it out and don't leave any traces."

Ruxuan nodded, looked up at the snowflakes in the sky, and said, "Sir, if you want to go back to the British Duke's Mansion to have breakfast with the Duke of Guo tomorrow, I'm afraid you won't be able to rest in the temple tonight."

Lu Ziqin opened the curtain to take a look and said, "Sit down for a while and then go back. We will stay at Qingkeju tonight."

 Ruxuan responded, "How about I wait for you at the gate of the small temple?"

"Okay, you can wait in the car." Lu Ziqin replied.

Lu Ziqin went to the temple alone, drank two cups of tea with Master Minghui, and talked for a while before getting up and leaving.

That night, Lu Ziqin stayed at the Qing guest house next to the British government residence.

Ruxuan pushed the door open and came in, and saw Lu Ziqin still standing by the window looking at the Duke's Mansion across the street.

He reminded in a low voice: "Sir, it's time to rest."

Lu Ziqin said: "Does he always return home at this time?"

 Ruxuan asked confusedly: "Who is it?"

Ruxuan saw Lu Ziqin looking out the window and walked to the window in a few steps. Following Lu Ziqin's gaze, he saw Lu Dingning walking towards the east door with his long follower Yang Zhen.

Yang Zhen turned around and looked around as he walked, looking cautious like a child who has done bad things.

The British government has access control, and unless there are special circumstances at night, Youzheng must return to the house.

Ruxuan looked at the two masters and servants not far away and said: "Shopkeeper Miao said that the second master seems to have an outhouse in Tianshui Lane. The woman is from Zuichun Tower and has been with the second master for some time."

Lu Ziqin watched Lu Dingning enter the east door, turned around and walked to the bathroom, and said, "Go and check, find out more about this matter, the more detailed the better."

 Ruxuan bowed and responded, "I understand, little one."
