Zhang Jingxiu saw her brother, who was the commander of the Jinyi Guards, nodding his head, and then he returned his anger and cheered. Yingying smiled and said, "Thank you, fourth brother."
After finishing the business, she bowed again and left quietly.
When the Zhang family father and son saw her leaving quickly, they looked at each other and smiled. The father and son returned to the study to talk about business.
For Mr. Zhang, who was busy with many things, he quickly forgot about this matter, but a mere aide was really not worthy of the attention of the Chief Minister and his son of the Ming Dynasty.
Not long after.
Zhang Jingxiu quickly returned to his small courtyard.
After thinking about it, Miss Zhang freshened up and dressed up under the service of the maid. After applying some makeup, she happily left the house with Zhang Kui, the nurse, and several senior attendants.
This time she did not disguise herself as a man, but wore a luxurious fur, put beads on her temples, and got into a luxurious carriage.
Across the curtain.
Zhang Kui, the nursing home nurse, cleared his throat and said in a low voice: "Miss, where are we going?"
In the carriage, Miss Zhang's soft voice sounded: "Go to Willow Street..."
Zhang Kui responded, waved his whip, drove a luxurious carriage, and headed straight to where Shen Lie set up his stall last night.
Afternoon.
Wicker Street.
The festive atmosphere was still strong. Shen Lie and Yun'er walked up and down the street. They were not idle along the way, tasting various snacks, braised food...
While Shen Lie was eating and shopping, he was looking toward the inner city. In the sea of people, he never spotted that touching and pretty figure.
Yun'er looked at him distractedly from the side, and her little mouth pouted again, muttering in a low voice: "Master, you...just calm down."
It seems that the young master is still thinking about Miss Zhang.
Shen Lie hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, I understand."
Everyone has a love for beauty. If Shen Lie had no idea about the stunning Miss Zhang, he would not be a normal man.
But……
Shen Lie quickly calmed down, gritted his teeth, and once again erased that peerless appearance from his mind. Yun'er was right.
Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain.
Forget about her!
So Shen Lie cheered up again and took Yun'er to wander around the dazzling streets, shopping around for all the fun and delicious food.
Finally, I ordered two bowls of haggis soup from a small restaurant I frequented, and drank it deliciously.
same time.
Liutiao Street enters the alleyway of Goulan Hutong.
The luxurious carriage drove slowly along the street. Zhang Kui stopped the carriage at the spot where Shen Lie usually set up a stall. Zhang Jingxiu opened the curtain and looked at the roadside.
On top of that beautiful face, her excited expression couldn't help but stagnate.
To her great surprise, the stall was completely empty. Shen Lie's trap stall was now replaced by a vegetable farmer.
Zhang Jingxiu was slightly stunned.
This feeling is like having a bucket of cold water poured on your head.
This scene made the excited Miss Zhang a little disappointed. Her pretty eyebrows furrowed and she whispered to Zhang Kui: "Let's go back home."
Covering the curtain, Zhang Jingxiu muttered in his heart: "Maybe he has other things to be busy with, so... come back tomorrow."
So the time came two days later.
The inner residence of Zhang Mansion.
The setting sun in the afternoon hung in the sky, and the courtyard was as quiet and comfortable as usual. The maids and servants were gently cleaning every corner of the courtyard.
The cold plum blossoms that have just cleared up after the snow are blooming with fragrance.
In the warm pavilion, Zhang Jingxiu held a miscellaneous book in his hand and leaned his slender and graceful body in front of the window. Her exquisite and beautiful face, the smooth curve between her thin waist and her hips exuded a charming atmosphere.
But Miss Zhang today always seems a little careless.
I don't know how much time passed, but Zhang Jingxiu put down his miscellaneous books and looked at the sky, then said softly to a personal maid: "Xiaoju, go and ask if Zhang Kui is back?"
The maid hurriedly responded and left quickly.
After a while, the maid came back quickly and secretly glanced at her young lady. She looked a little strange and walked to the window and whispered: "Miss... Zhang Kui said that he still hasn't seen the man from Willow Street coming out of the stall.
"
As Zhang Jingxiu threw away the miscellaneous books, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and everyone could see that Miss Zhang was feeling a little unhappy at this moment.
At this time, the courtyard was silent. The maid gritted her teeth and said softly: "Miss, I have something I don't know whether to say or not."
Zhang Jingxiu said softly: "Say."
The maid's face was even weirder, and she came closer and said softly: "In my opinion, that person... is probably deliberately avoiding you."
Zhang Jingxiu was slightly stunned.
The maid then said angrily: "Miss, think about it, right now it is the busiest time for people to come and go on the street. If he hadn't deliberately avoided it, how could he not even want to make money?"
Zhang Jingxiu was stunned again, and his beautiful face turned cold.
At this moment, an indescribable sadness arose in Fang's heart. Shen Lie's honest and honest face once again appeared in her mind.
Think about it.
She felt that Xiaoju's words were very reasonable.
Miss Zhang snorted coldly, got off the bed, and began to freshen up and change clothes. Originally, she was wearing a girl's dress with a hairpin and a beaded flower.
But she pondered for a moment, then took off her skirt and hairpin, took off her flower beads, and angrily put on a men's Confucian dress, wrapped her cloud-like hair with a hat, and wrapped it again.
A fur coat.
Only then did Miss Zhang let out a scolding voice: "Let's go!"
Not long after.
Miss Zhang took Zhang Kui and several of his entourage and left Zhang's Mansion in a carriage. After leaving Zhang's Mansion, they passed through several streets and came straight to the gate of a government office.
This yamen looks very majestic. From time to time, strong men wearing bright red brocade clothes come in and out. This is...
Liutiao Street Health Station under the jurisdiction of Fusi, Jinyiweibei Town.
In the official hall.
A middle-aged man with a square face, dark skin, and wearing a bright red and embroidered official robe, with his legs crossed, was reading official documents in the official hall.
Judging from the color of his clothes, this person's official position is that of a member of the Imperial Guard, and he is also the real ruler of the Liutiao Street area. His name is Tian Hong.
In the eyes of Shengdou Xiaomin, this is a big shot who takes everything.
When the leader of the black and white circles and the guild saw this Lord of Hundred Households, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, and he didn't dare to express his anger.
In the silence, Tian Hong put down the official document, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. Suddenly he heard a knock on the door from outside, and responded lazily: "Come in."
As the door of the official hall opened, a school captain hurried in from outside. He turned around and closed the door, then saluted Tian Hong.
"grown ups."
Tian Hong responded: "Well, what's the matter?"
The captain looked a little strange and walked over quickly, saying anxiously: "Sir, come on, come on... The distinguished guests are here."
Tian Hong didn't take it to heart, so he lazily said: "Who?"
The captain stepped forward quickly and whispered a few words in Tian Hong's ear: "It's Zhang..."
Hearing the name spoken by the captain, Tian Baihu trembled, his hands shook, and he almost dropped the tea bowl in his hand.
Tian Baihu suddenly stood up. The corners of Tian Baihu's mouth twitched, and he couldn't even speak properly: "Quick, please come quickly!"
Thinking about it again, something was wrong. Tian Baihu patted himself on the face. Miss Zhang suddenly showed up. What kind of airs could he, a small royal guard Baihu, put on!
Who is this young lady? She is his boss's boss's boss... His favorite little girl, shouldn't he welcome her in person?
During the conversation.
Tian Hong took three steps and two steps at a time, and went out in a furious manner.
