Not long after the carriage had gone, Jiang Nuan jumped up.
Asked Xu Chunjun: "Have the girls followed you?"
"It's all behind, don't worry." Xu Chunjun said, holding back a smile.
Cen Yunchu was arranging his slightly messy hair on the side and remained silent.
Xu Chunjun thanked her: "Thank you, Miss Cen, for giving us a ride."
"No need to thank you, you also gave me a step," Cen Yunchu also smiled, "otherwise the ending would be a bit troublesome."
Xu Chunjun and Jiang Nuan both knew that she was withdrawn and difficult to get along with, so they said: "Please ask the driver to stop the car, and we will get out of the car right now."
But Cen Yunchu said, "What are you busy with? We've already sat down, so let's go into the city together."
Jiang Nuan then said: "Miss Cen, I didn't expect you to do something. I thought I was the only one who couldn't stand it!"
Cen Yunchu rolled his eyes and said, "What's the point? Hit her if you don't like her. It's better to strike first. Who cares about her!"
Then he said to Jiang Nuan: "You are really good at fighting. I want to learn a few tricks from you!"
Jiang Nuan couldn't help but blush, and said: "Everyone in my maternal grandfather's family practiced martial arts. When I was young, I was weak, so my grandmother and aunt asked me to practice boxing and kicking to strengthen my body. Later, when I got older, I was not allowed to do it, saying that I must have some girls.
It looks like home.”
Xu Chunjun said with a smile: "It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it is spent in a moment. You have been practicing martial arts since you were a child, and now you are showing off your skills, otherwise we will definitely suffer a loss today."
Jiang Nuan lowered his head and sighed: "I had a great time today, but I didn't have any good fruits to eat when I got back."
She got into so much trouble today that she offended several powerful people.
Her father and stepmother have always been cautious, and Jiang Qing tried her best to curry favor with Cui Mingzhu and others. This matter cannot be let go.
Xu Chunjun comforted her and said: "Go back and admit your mistake properly and don't be stubborn, so as not to receive a heavier reprimand."
Jiang Nuan smiled bitterly and said: "I'll just pay it back, I'm just afraid that Zhuizi and the others will take the blame for me."
Normally, Mrs. Meng often said that these two girls didn't understand the rules and had to teach them, let alone now.
Cen Yunchu patted Jiang Nuan on the shoulder and said, "Come on, I'll treat you to a drink. It's still early anyway."
Xu Chunjun and Jiang Nuan were surprised when they heard this, and said, "You got into trouble, and you still went drinking?"
Cen Yunchu said with a smile: "It's such a big thing that it's easy to get drunk. You're going to be punished anyway, so why do you have to rush back so early?"
Xu Chunjun and Jiang Nuan looked at each other and sighed: "Miss Cen, you are so chic!"
Cen Yunchu sighed carefully and said: "What is cool or not? I just don't want to let those clichés and false reputations tie me too tightly. If you have concerns, I will go by myself. It is also good for you to stay away from me."
, so as not to bring trouble to you."
Jiang Nuan always remembered how Cen Yunchu spoke up for him in the county prince's palace, and because he was a very old-fashioned person, he felt that it would not be loyal enough if he didn't accompany him, so he said with emotion: "I'll just go with you. Anyway, it's not bad to be punished for several crimes."
This one!"
Cen Yunchu then smiled and said: "Sure enough, I saw you right. You do have a bit of the staunchness of a family member."
Jiang Nuan turned around and said softly to Xu Chunjun: "Good sister, please go back! I am the one who has caused trouble for you today. You are living in someone else's house, and it is even harder to explain."
Xu Chunjun pinched her face with a smile and said: "If I want to escape, I just hide by the lake. Since we are in trouble, we should share the burden. If we retreat halfway, we are not friends."
Jiang Nuan was so moved that she rushed forward, hugged Xu Chunjun and said, "Good sister! I really didn't misjudge you!"
Cen Yunchu also said: "Previously, I only thought you were a good person, adaptable to the times, and witty and tactful. I didn't like this type of person. But today I see you are very loyal, and I am impressed."
After saying this, all three people laughed.
The restaurant they went to was called Baojinzhong, and Cen Yunchu seemed to be a regular customer here.
They asked for a private room on the third floor facing the north. Outside the north window was a green bamboo forest, which was quiet and cool, and allowed people to enjoy the scenery.
“Having a cup of tea here is more fragrant than anywhere else,” Jiang Nuanba said from the window, “It’s so comfortable!”
"What kind of tea do you want to drink at a restaurant?" Cen Yunchu laughed at her, "You will know what the real fragrance is after you taste their signature dishes and rice wine!"
Jiang Nuan and Xu Chunjun held up a menu and looked at it together. Cen Yunchu came here often and remembered things well, so he didn't even need to read the menu.
Finally, after ordering six dishes and three bottles of wine, Cen Yunchu ordered a table for the girls, which was in the room next to theirs.
Jiang Nuan was originally worried, but because she was with Xu Chunjun and the others, and had good food and wine, she couldn't help but put her worries behind her for the time being.
"Try this dish, marinated and fresh meat are put together, mixed with dried mushrooms and fresh day lily. It's very flavorful." Cen Yunchu introduced, "This crispy lotus petal is only available for the past two months. After that, it will be delicious."
I can’t eat anymore.”
As he eats and drinks, he naturally talks more.
Cen Yunchu has been to many places and naturally saw a lot of food.
He picked out a few interesting words and kept Jiang Nuan and Xu Chunjun listening.
Jiang Nuan said with admiration: "Miss Cen, you are really well-informed! The things I usually hear from storytellers are not as exciting as what you say. You have read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles. It's a pity.
You are a woman, if you had been a man, you would have been summoned by the emperor to serve as an imperial minister."
Cen Yunchu waved his hand and said, "Don't say that. What do I know about the few things I know? If someone really learned about it, they would just laugh out loud."
At this time, Xu Chunjun felt that Cen Yunchu's arrogance was engraved in her bones. She didn't like to show off her talents, and she hated pretentiousness.
Rather than saying that she is arrogant, it is better to say that she is too straightforward and natural.
Seeing that she was silent for a long time, Cen Yunchu asked: "Miss Xu, why don't you speak?"
Xu Chunjun responded with a smile and said, "Then do you want to hear the truth?"
"Natural." Cen Yunchu's beautiful eyes were slightly raised, and his aura was compelling.
"I was thinking just now that Miss Cen, who is so well-informed, will definitely not be limited to a certain small world. Unlike us women who have been trapped in the boudoir since childhood, like frogs at the bottom of a well, we can only see what is above our heads.
A piece of sky.
But maybe because of this, you have to endure more ups and downs and criticism than us. After all, the world is full of vulgar people, vulgar people and vulgar people, too noble and refined, must not be tolerated by the world." Xu Chunjun couldn't help but sigh, "You
There is nothing wrong at all, but there are always people who think you are terribly wrong."
After Xu Chunjun finished speaking, Cen Yunchu was silent for a long time.
Then he smiled, raised his glass and said to Xu Chunjun and Jiang Nuan: "I never disdain to be with anyone, and I feel that even if I don't have friends, I can still enjoy myself. Because good friends can be found but cannot be found, and since they are neither available, there is no need to search hard."
, I feel sorry for you. But I am willing to try to make friends with you today. As for whether we can make friends, please leave it to chance!"
