Chapter 152 Another Old Man
Huo Qingsong left, and Lv Xianger sat in the living room for a long time before she got up. From the expression on her face, it can be seen that Lv Xianger is in a good mood at this time. Even Yuan Musheng saw something and was very happy for their father and son's benefactors.
Seeing that it was almost lunch time, Yuan Musheng came to the shop in front of him and wanted Brother Tie to buy some vegetables. Although the wife married by Yuan Musheng is average-looking and has a bad nature, she is a good cook. Every time Lv Xianger comes, she will stay for lunch. Most importantly, Lv Xianger just found a house nearby for Yuan Musheng, and Yuan Musheng wanted to say it.
Unexpectedly, when he saw Brother Tie, before Yuan Musheng spoke, another person walked into the outside. Seeing this man, Yuan Musheng's face immediately pulled down. No matter what kind of remedy the person in front of him has done, Yuan Musheng has no good impression on him. However, this is Beijing Normal University. The person in front of him is still a student who is rushing to take the exam. Yuan Musheng can only salute.
"Ms. Liao, our store hasn't opened yet. If Mr. Liao wants to buy wine, he will have to wait for a while." Yuan Musheng's salute to Liao Wenbo made people unable to see any expression of dissatisfaction.
Liao Wenbo smiled and hugged Yuan Musheng: "Shopkeeper Yuan, I'm here to find Lv Xiaomangzi. Can you invite her to come out and see her?"
Liao Wenbo did not ask if Lv Xianger was here, but directly asked Yuan Musheng to invite Lv Xianger to come out, which means that Liao Wenbo knew Lv Xianger was here. After thinking about it, Yuan Musheng thought that Liao Wenbo was secretly monitoring Lv Xianger. His face was not good, and he was also a littleware.
Yuan Musheng was trying to block Liao Wenbo back, but Lv Xianger came out of the living room: "Uncle Musheng, go and go ahead. I can entertain Mr. Liao. Mr. Liao, please go to the living room for a cup of tea.
When Liao Wenbo saw Lv Xianger, he was overjoyed, but he was very implicit and did not let people see it. At the invitation of Lv Xianger, Liao Wenbo nodded to Yuan Musheng before entering the living room. Yuan Musheng looked at the curtain down a few times, then sighed and was ready to go to the backyard. Brother Tie scratched his head and was a little puzzled. Yuan Musheng just seemed to want to say something to him. Why did he leave like this?
Besides, Lv Xianger and Liao Wenbo came to the living room. Lv Xianger first poured a cup of tea for Liao Wenbo, and then sat back to the chair and said, "Mr. Liao's news is still very well-in-known. He actually knew that I would be here."
Lv Xianger's voice was plain, but her tone was a little sarcastic. Liao Wenbo's face was slightly restrained and whispered, "Mrs. Lv, don't get me wrong. I know from Brother Lv that you are going to rebuild the Piaoxiang Wine Shop in the East City. I came here today, but I didn't expect to see General Huo. Only then did I know that Mrs. Lv's shop was here.
"Oh, so, Mr. Liao has been standing outside for a long time." Lv Xianger raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Liao Wenbo strangely. There is a grudge between the Liao family in Jiangling and General Huo's mansion in the capital. I'm afraid that Liao Wenbo's temperament will not hide from Huo Qingsong.
Liao Wenbo also knew Lv Xianger's doubts, but did not explain anything, but said, "Mrs. Lv, my main purpose today is to tell you something..."
Half an hour later, Lv Xianger and Liao Wenbo, with a solemn look on their faces, left the shop. Standing at the door of the shop, Liao Wenbo turned around and said goodbye to Lv Xianger. He looked at Lv Xianger and wanted to say more in his heart, but when he thought of what he had done before, Liao Wenbo's heart sank and he couldn't say anything.
Lv Xianger is very grateful to Liao Wenbo for coming to talk about it to her today. She blessed Liao Wenbo, and her tone also eased a lot: "Mr. Liao, anyway, Xiang'er is very grateful to you for telling me the news."
"Lv Xiaoniangzi is too polite. Anyway, I also know her, but I don't know that she will be now... Well, let's not talk about it. I'll go back." Liao Wenbo remembered something when he said this. His eyes darkened, so he nodded to Lv Xianger and turned away.
Lv Xianger also saw Liao Wenbo's guilty eyes and wanted to tell him that she didn't care. But thinking of Liao Wenbo's feelings for herself, Lv Xianger was afraid that she would have any intersection with Liao Wenbo after saying this. She watched Liao Wenbo leave slowly and closed her mouth that had just opened.
It was not until Liao Wenbo disappeared that Lv Xianger turned around and returned to the shop. Unexpectedly, Yuan Musheng stood by the counter with a worried expression on his face. Lv Xianger understood what he thought, so she put away her emotions and shook her head: "Uncle Mu Sheng, don't worry, Mr. Liao didn't plan anything about me."
"Little lady, I have also been a shopkeeper for a few years, and I have seen a lot of people. But Mr. Liao, I have never seen what kind of person he is. You'd better be careful. Yuan Musheng nodded and said that the food was ready. He asked Lv Xianger to go to dinner quickly.
Speaking of lunch, Lv Xianger immediately looked happy and walked to the backyard. Seeing the middle-aged woman who was serving dinner, Lv Xianger smiled and said, "Uncle and Aunt Mu, I like to eat the tofu you make the most."
The middle-aged woman smiled shyly and looked a little restrained. She quickly put the rice in front of Lv Xianger and said, "That's good if you like it. Hurry up and eat. I'll change Brother Tie to have dinner."
As she spoke, the middle-aged woman hurried out of the house. Lv Xianger shook her head when she saw Yuan Musheng, who was meeting with a middle-aged woman, and said with a smile, "Uncle Musheng, my aunt may not be used to coming to Beijing. She will gradually get better. Don't be angry with her."
"Don't persuade me, little lady. I know that's her personality. That's good, I'm also more worry-free." Although Yuan Musheng doesn't like his wife's nature, in addition, she is still very satisfied with Yuan Musheng, especially she has two sons and a daughter for Yuan Musheng.
After lunch, Lv Xianger sat in the yard basking in the sun and somehow remembered what Liao Wenbo told her. Lv Xianger was not sure whether Liao Wenbo recognized the wrong person, but if it was true, she had to make some preparations. Lv Xianger didn't want to see Lv Hong's sad appearance again.
After thinking about it, Lv Xianger went to the shop in front to find Yuan Musheng and borrowed his carriage to go out for a walk. Yuan Musheng was naturally happy and quickly asked Tie Geer to drive out of the carriage from the back door, and asked Tie Geer to drive Lv Xianger out in a carriage.
"Little lady, where shall we go?" Tie Geer waited for Lv Xianger to get into the carriage before turning around and asking.
Lv Xianger hesitated for a moment before whispered, "Going to Jingshui Lake in Dongshi City. I heard that there will be some talented women from Beijing. They talk about poems and paintings on the painting in the lake. I'm going to increase my knowledge." Brother Tie nodded and slowly left the shop with the carriage under the gaze of Yuan Musheng.
In about half an hour, Lv Xianger, who was in a carriage, finally saw the still water lake. Although it is already October and the weather is very cold, there are still many tourists around here. Lv Xianger saw that it was a little inconvenient for the carriage to drive here, so she got out of the carriage and told Brother Tie to pick her up in an hour. Feeling the cool breeze blowing from the lake, Lv Xianger's heart suddenly calmed down.
Thinking of Lv Hong's performance during this period, Lv Xianger hesitated and didn't know how he would feel when he saw Xiang Qingya again. It can be said that if Xiang Qingya hadn't done so much, she would have been Lv Xianger's sister-in-law.
No matter men or women, it is difficult to forget the first person you like. Xiang Qingya was the first person Lv Hong liked, and Lv Hong was still the kind of person who would not turn back. Even if Lv Hong now says that he doesn't care, Lv Xianger won't believe it.
"Look, how can there be such a beautiful painting boat over there?"
"It's your first time to Beijing. Of course, I don't know. That painting boat is the place where talented women in Beijing gather. I heard that the owner of the painting is the little lady of the He family..."
Lv Xianger, who was walking, heard the 'little lady of the He family' and turned around and looked at the lake. On the clear lake, there is an elegant painting boat, slowly coming from far to near in the breeze. There are two large lanterns hanging on both sides, and there is a pair of couplets hanging high below, which is really elegant.
On the top of the painting boat, there is a curtain hanging outside the first floor. I can only see that the people inside seem to be talking about something, and laughter comes from time to time. On the second floor, there was only a guardrail. It was clearly seen that several little women were surrounding a table and watching a little lady draw. Seeing this painting boat, you can see that there are really many talented women in Beijing.
Looking at the lake, I don't know when a lot of young people gathered to look at the painting. The well-prepared gentlemen have already boarded the boat by the lake and are heading for the painting boat. Seeing that some of the princes tried to put on a plain appearance when they approached the boat, Lv Xianger couldn't help smiling.
At this moment, a very luxurious painting boat came quickly from the other side. There were several princes standing on the second floor of the painting, looking at the talented women all the time. When the two boates approached, the princes said a few words loudly. The talented woman on the second floor immediately went to the guardrail to talk to several princes, and the little lady who was painting also got up and walked to the guardrail.
The little lady walks lightly and behaves elegantly. When she speaks, she also speaks with a soft atmosphere. At a glance, she knows that she is from a large family. Although you can only see the side of this little lady from afar, you can also see that she is a fairy-like person.
Lv Xianger originally looked at the two paintings with a lively mood, but when she saw the side of the little lady, she was suddenly stunned. Lv Xianger, who couldn't believe her eyes, couldn't help taking a few steps forward. But she almost fell into the lake, and a little lady beside her pulled her to avoid Lv Xianger from being ugly in public.
However, Lv Xianger forgot to thank her and looked straight at the little lady. Originally, Liao Wenbo said that to her, and Lv Xianger also came here with a try of luck. Unexpectedly, I really met her, the little lady who disappeared in Jiangling Mansion, Xiang Qingya.
