The onlookers shouted one after another, some yelled to stop, some yelled that it was deserved, many women shook their heads and tutted, and many others laughed, asking men to do something more important, what a man is he if he can't teach his own mother-in-law.
Old Man Qi frowned at the side, looked at the girl walking behind, and hurriedly moved a few steps away from the crowd: "Ah Li, come and take a look."
Xia Zhaoyi just came over and saw Gu Yi's raised foot being kicked away by someone.
Gu Yi, who was already lame, suddenly fell down and became unstable. His tall body suddenly fell to the ground, and he fell hard.
The man who appeared out of nowhere was also tall. He leaned over to help the young woman on the ground and scolded Gu Yi: "What kind of thing is beating a woman in the street?!"
The man was about in his early twenties, wearing a set of dark purple smart clothes, with a sword hanging at his waist, and he was looking at the medicinal materials on the ground.
Xia Zhaoyi glanced at him and then looked at the young woman he was supporting. She felt familiar at first sight. After thinking about it for a moment, Xia Zhaoyi was stunned for a moment, Zai Chun.
She is completely different from the smart and pretty girl she was a few years ago. Her complexion is still fair, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows are haggard, and her hair is unkempt. Although she was beaten badly, many bruises and bruises can be seen as old injuries.
The scene became more chaotic due to the appearance of the young man. The good guy stepped forward to explain why the young woman was beaten, saying that she deserved the beating and did not deserve sympathy.
Some people took advantage of his large number of people to accuse him of interfering in other people's housework and being nosy.
Old Man Qi also wanted to come forward to argue and asked Xia Zhaoyi if he could. Xia Zhaoyi looked away from Zaichun and said, "Let's go."
"But……"
Xia Zhaoyi had turned around and walked outside.
Old Man Qi glanced at the young man, the young woman, and her husband who had climbed up from the ground, then turned around and followed Xia Zhaoyi.
The boys and clerks in front of Ning'an Building couldn't go to the drug store to watch the excitement. Taking advantage of their free time, they stood on tiptoe and looked around. They casually commented that Gu Yi was good to his friends but was really bad to his own mother-in-law. Some also said that this woman was
He is not a good person, and then he recounts a bunch of past events.
At this time, several carriages and sedan chairs came, and the boys' faces changed, and they greeted them respectfully with smiles.
Xia Zhaoyi and Old Man Qi found Ning'an Building all the way, and saw a lady surrounded by pearls and green leaves getting off an exquisite and elegant sedan. She put her hand on the wrist of the maid next to her, raised her head slightly, and walked towards Ning'an Building slowly and arrogantly.
And go.
Old Man Qi didn't think it was a big deal and he said: "Ah Li, that lady is a bit interesting and fun."
After he finished speaking, he heard a low cry of "Yeah" coming from the other side door. Old man Qi and Xia Zhaoyi turned to look. Yi Qiu held the handkerchief, a pair of bright eyes stared at Xia Zhaoyi happily, and then walked quickly
She was so surprised that she stretched out her hand to hold Xia Zhaoyi's hands, but she pulled back halfway and said with a smile: "Quickly, Miss Ali, please come with me, our eldest lady misses you!"
When leading Xia Zhaoyi into the magnificent gate of Ning'an Building, Yi Qiu suddenly remembered the purpose of her trip, and she turned her head and looked in the direction of the medicine shop.
Forget it, let's just wish ourselves good luck in Zaichun.
The boys outside looked at Xia Zhaoyi's back curiously, not knowing who was coming. It was the first time they saw Yi Qiu so excited.
People in the lobby also cast their gazes.
Manager Chu was checking the accounts, and the waiter on the side nudged him without knowing why, and curiously asked him who he was.
Manager Chu raised his head. He saw a girl with a palm-sized face, fair skin, watery eyebrows, and delicate jade-like features. She was wearing a long dark dress, with a sparse Xiyuan pattern outlined with plain silver ink lines, and an embroidered double fairy embroidery on her waist.
The dark white girdle of the phoenix tail is covered with a slightly transparent crow blue gauze shirt, which is as ethereal as the light ink of the landscape blurred by the clear spring.
The simple and calm color scheme makes it appear low-key and restrained among the crowd at first glance, but after a few more glances, you will find its outstanding and unique fairy-bone style.
And it was precisely because she was the center of attention at the moment that she had the time to take a few more glances. Manager Chu was stunned for a moment, and when his eyes met hers in his memory, the tea cup in his hand almost wet the account book.
.
But Manager Chu was Manager Chu after all. No matter how surprised he was, he knew that the people in the hall were talkative. He restrained himself from blurting out names, hurriedly walked around the counter, and called happily: "The girl is here!"
Everyone in the lobby didn't know who the girl was, so they all made their own guesses.
An attendant sitting by the farthest window stood up and looked curiously into the lobby. The more he looked, the more familiar the girl looked. He reached out to push Liang Jun, who was napping next to him.
After calling for the young master several times, Liang Jun was finally woken up, but when he looked up, Xia Zhaoyi had already been led upstairs by Yi Qiu and Manager Chu.
There was a lot of discussion in the lobby.
Liang Jun took out a mint candy and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it, frowned and said, "What girl deserves you to be so excited?"
The attendant patted his head, a name was about to come to his lips, but he couldn't call it out.
Liang Jun raised his hand to pour the tea, and the follower said "Yeah" and shouted: "I remember, it's that Ah Li!"
The tea in Liang Jun's hand trembled and he spilled it outside: "Who? Ah Li?"
"That's right, that's the girl who confronted Xuanwujun and the others at the gate of Dongping Academy! The one who stopped the emperor and turned the capital upside down!"
Liang Jun hurriedly stood up, his usually calm temperament rarely looked so calm.
"Master, Miss A Li has a very good relationship with Mr. Shen. You have been looking for Mr. Shen all the way. Wouldn't it be safer to meet Miss A Li now than to find Mrs. Zhao? I said, we will definitely get it this time! Lai Heng
The fragrance is right!”
Liang Jun could no longer hear his entourage asking for credit. He tapped the table beside him in excitement, and the frequent speed revealed his excitement.
After a while, Liang Jun sat back, filled the half-filled tea cup, and said happily: "Just wait for Miss Ali to come down!"
"Um!"
Zhao Ning is looking at jade.
She actually doesn't like jade much, but lately, when people give gifts, they always like to give jade to her.
"These pieces of ancient jade are really top quality. If you don't like them, I will send them to Dongping University at will. Which gentleman wouldn't love them?" Mrs. Qu said from the side.
Zhao Ning did not respond and watched quietly.
The open door of the side hall was suddenly knocked lightly, and Yi Qiu came in and said with a smile: "Miss, look, who is here!"
Everyone in the room turned to look, and the girl who followed him in followed him with light steps, looked around the side hall, and looked at Zhao Ning with bright eyes like a star.
Zhao Ning blinked his eyes, curved the corners of his lips under the veil, and walked quickly: "Ali!"
"Zhao Ning." Xia Zhaoyi smiled.
"So big!" Zhao Ning took Xia Zhaoyi's hands and moved them up and down, looking at her happily, "Slim and graceful, what a graceful Ah Li!"
"I'm not tall enough yet, I'm looking forward to being taller." Xia Zhaoyi said.
"Isn't this enough?" Yiqiu said with a smile, raising her hand to make a gesture, "Miss Ali is obviously taller than everyone in the room."
"Ah Li, if it's not high, it's not high," Zhao Ning looked at her, "I'll get some more pork tube bones tonight. If not, I'll have them kill both ends, make more bone soup, and cook more tofu."
Xia Zhaoyi was amused.
Yiqiu also laughed, and seeing her wife being so excited, Yiqiu didn't know why, but she felt the tip of her nose was a little sore, and her eyes turned red.
