"And in the past few years that I have been in the Zhu family, I have never heard of the Young Master."
Jian Jixiang has now directly told his life story.
Lu Zhizhang naturally just said, "I am indeed not from Yunzhou. I came from Guanzhong, and I just happened to pass through Yunzhou at the moment."
Hearing what Lu Zhizhang said, Ji Xiang nodded again and said, "You said it this way, it's not bad."
When Lu Zhizhang heard this, he just chuckled. However, when he realized that Jixiang was from the Zhu family, he became even more curious about Jixiang.
After all, he was made homeless by the Zhu family, and now he wants to use the Zhu family to change himself to a better future.
So he just continued, "Speaking of which, I have some connections with the Zhu family."
When Jixiang heard this, he immediately looked at the other person warily. Don't say that he was related to the Zhu family, especially if he was familiar with Zhu Yuewu, it would be even worse. Thinking of this, Jixiang couldn't bear it. He kept asking, "What's your origin?"
Upon hearing Ji Xiang's question, Lu Zhizhang immediately said, "I transported a batch of rice grains from Guanzhong to Guanyuan Town. Logically speaking, one hundred kilograms can be exchanged for one salt deed. I transported three hundred kilograms of rice. I could exchange for three salt deeds, but in the end, the Zhu family withheld three hundred kilograms of rice from me. He said that the rice grain was only one hundred kilograms, so he could only give me one salt deed. Naturally, I was not convinced and asked them to argue, but As a result, they withheld all our rice and refused to even give us a salt deed. Moreover, I was almost wanted. If my secret guards hadn't had some tricks, I probably wouldn't have been able to escape. But right now Although we escaped, we had no guide and no money, so it was difficult for us to go back."
Upon hearing Lu Zhizhang's words, Ji Xiang naturally breathed a sigh of relief. It was okay if they were enemies. She had nothing to do with the Zhu family anyway, so she immediately whispered, "The Zhu family is such a place. I Back then, I saw how they shamelessly deprived others of their property. The Zhu family's wealth was all obtained by robbing others."
After the words fell, Jixiang only said, "But although I have worked with the Zhu family, I don't have much to do with them. I am lucky enough to have only met a good master."
Lu Zhizhang deliberately deceived Ji Xiang's identity, so he only said, "Good master? Can there be good people in the Zhu family?"
Faced with Lu Zhizhang's indignation, Ji Xiang immediately replied, "I'm not actually a member of the Zhu family. After I entered the Zhu Mansion, I was assigned to the eldest young master's fiancée. The eldest young master's fiancée is a good person and has a very good personality." Gentle! It’s all thanks to her that I came out of the Zhu family. She and the eldest young master are both rare good people, but I don’t know how their wedding went!”
After saying this, Ji Xiang just sighed heavily.
But Lu Zhizhang was shocked when he heard this.
This girl is actually Shen Fanghui's maid. This can't be regarded as a coincidence. If he had known the origin of the other party earlier, he might have recognized this maid directly in the name of his brother-in-law.
However, his name might make this maid less afraid, so after thinking about it, Lu Zhizhang simply stopped correcting his identity.
And he always felt that Shen Fanghui didn't tell the truth to him, so now that he met Shen Fanghui's maid, he might be able to learn a lot of key information from her.
Thinking of this, he was even more ecstatic.
…
The night is deeply dazzling. On the village in the western suburbs of Yunzhou, several makeup ladies and women are styling the hair of the beauty in front of the bronze mirror. The beauty is naturally delicate, but now she has put on the clothes of a newlywed. It adds a touch of beauty and dignity.
After the mother-in-law inserted the last phoenix hairpin, she couldn't help but said to Shen Fanghui, "Madam, do you like this look?"
The person in the mirror has black hair and eyebrows like distant mountains. Her smile looks like wild begonia flowers blooming. Although it is not very beautiful, it still makes people feel unable to take their eyes away.
Shen Fanghui is naturally very satisfied with this makeup look.
But I just remembered that the person I wanted to marry was not the one I wanted to marry.
People, her eyes are inevitably filled with clouds and mist.
Seeing that she was silent, the mother-in-law just thought that she was not satisfied with the shape, so the mother-in-law just said, "Young madam, if you are not satisfied with anything, we will change it."
Hearing what the mother-in-law said, Shen Fanghui just said, "I'm not dissatisfied. I just didn't expect that your hands can be so skillful. I'm very satisfied with the look this time. Let's do it again tomorrow." ?」
When Shen Fanghui said she was satisfied, the women couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the deep night outside, the mothers-in-law couldn't help but say to Shen Fanghui, "Madam, it's getting late. Tomorrow my uncle will come to welcome the bride. Do you think we should go to bed early?"
When Shen Fanghui heard this, she just said, "That's natural."
The woman then said, "How about I undo the girl's hair?"
Unexpectedly, when Shen Fanghui heard this, she just whispered, "That's not necessary."
When the mother-in-law heard this, she immediately asked, "Why?"
"I want to take a look again. What's more, the people around me can remove my hair for me, so I don't have to bother my mother."
After hearing what Shen Fanghui said, the mother-in-law knew that she couldn't get in the way.
Therefore, the woman didn't say anything more. She just said, "In that case, madam, we can leave."
Shen Fanghui just nodded when she heard this.
After the mother-in-law left, Shen Fanghui did not continue to stay in front of the mirror to appreciate her beauty. She just walked straight to the window sill and opened the window. She soon saw that there was only one of the same stars at the window. The albizia tree in the west wing of Zhu's house is exactly the same, but now it is covered with greenery, and there is no longer a young man sitting on it and smiling at him from a distance.
Thinking of this, Shen Fanghui felt even more regretful. If he saw her like this, he would definitely praise her for her good looks. If she had chosen to go with him, maybe he would be the one to marry her today. Just thinking about this possibility, Shen Fanghui felt an inexplicable heartache in her heart.
However, when Shen Fanghui was thinking about Wu Chengwei secretly, she didn't know that Wu Chengwei still hadn't left her. He was sitting on the eaves opposite. He just looked at the bride who opened the window and was wearing a wedding dress wordlessly.
She is so beautiful.
Even if he no longer has any fate with himself.
But Wu Chengwei still couldn't help but fall in love with him again and again.
And when Shen Fanghui looked up at the tree, he couldn't help but secretly wonder if Shen Fanghui was actually looking for himself when he looked up at the tree.
When he thought of this possibility, he even wanted to go down and ask Shen Fanghui directly, but on the other hand, he was afraid that he would scare Shen Fanghui.
So after all the troubling thoughts and going back to the same place, he had nothing on his mind.
The two of them just looked at a tree together, as if reminiscing about shared memories.
Until Shen Fanghui's maid came in again and said, "Young madam, it's getting late. Wouldn't it be better for us to go to bed earlier?"
Shen Fanghui knew that memories were useless, so she nodded silently.
She returned to the dressing mirror and just let the maids remove her hair. It was not until everything was over that she had to go back to her room and sleep peacefully.
After she fell asleep, Wu Chengwei suddenly turned over and entered.
He just wanted to take one last look at Shen Fanghui. After all, this might be the last time he would see her again.
Thinking of this, he just turned over and went inside.
At this time, the only sound coming from the room was the even breathing of the maid and Shen Fanghui, who fell asleep at the same time.
Wu Chengwei felt sad and couldn't help but take the initiative to walk in Shen Fanghui's direction.
And when he opened the bed curtain, the moonlight came through, and he could see that Shen Fanghui seemed to be sleeping soundly, and the moon shone on her lovely face.
Thinking of this, Wu Chengwei couldn't help but place a soft kiss on Shen Fanghui's face.
"I love you, Huiniang."
He was thinking goodbye, Hui Niang.
Seeing you happy is enough for me.
However, just when he was about to stand up, a pair of hands suddenly grabbed his neck. At the same time, he only looked towards the other person, but saw Huiniang, who was supposed to be sleeping, with her eyes wide open at this moment. Look at yourself.
When he was at a loss, Hui Niang suddenly and desperately whispered, "I love you too."
Her voice was very low, so low that it seemed like it was no more than a breath, but her voice was very firm, so firm that Wu Chengwei almost thought he was dreaming. After all, Shen Fanghui had rejected her so many times. , he no longer dared to expect that Shen Fanghui would like him.
But when he said goodbye in despair, he couldn't believe that Shen Fanghui would actually say something to save him.
He whispered, "I can't be dreaming."
Shen Fanghui shook her head, "You are not dreaming, I am dreaming. I thought I would never see you again."
As soon as the words fell, a trail of tears fell down Shen Fanghui's face.
When Wu Chengwei saw this, he immediately wiped her tears in a hurry.
"Huiniang, don't cry! Don't cry."
And because Wu Chengwei was anxious, his voice unconsciously rose a lot.
The maid who was sleeping in the outer room also woke up immediately.
She immediately spoke out in warning, "Who is it?"
Shen Fanghui was afraid that the maid would come in, so she quickly asked Wu Chengwei to get into her bed.
After Wu Chengwei hid, she asked the maid, "What's wrong?"
When the maid heard Shen Fanghui's question, she naturally said to Shen Fanghui, "Madam, have you heard the man's voice?"
Shen Fanghui naturally knew in her heart that the man's voice that the maid heard was actually Wu Chengwei's voice.
But in order to prevent the other party from being discovered by the maid, Shen Fanghui only said, "What are you dreaming about? There are only you and me in this room, how can there be a man?"
