That night, in the study room outside, Yan Tian and his father and others made careful plans, adding and subtracting details, striving for perfection.
Although Yan Yu disapproved, he had no choice but to get involved. But in his heart, he was thinking about how he would remedy the situation for his third uncle if this matter caused trouble. He was worried about it.
As the night progressed, Qin Zhuen and Yan Yu said goodbye to Yan Wenkuan. Yan Tian was the last to leave.
As soon as I walked out of the room, the biting and dry cold wind outside immediately hit my face. Yan Tian wrapped her body in a big fur cloak and stood in the courtyard. Her head, which had been groggy from planning, instantly felt refreshed.
She raised her head and looked at the crescent moon in the sky, which was as thin as a hook. Thinking of Jin Huijuan, she couldn't help but sigh.
"Why are you still standing here in the middle of the night? You may get sick from the cold." A voice unexpectedly sounded from behind.
Yan Tian turned around and saw that it was Qin Zhuen.
"Brother Qin." Fu Shen bowed gracefully, Yan Tian was always polite.
Lord Qin's mouth twitched imperceptibly. If he hadn't already been familiar with Yan Tian's personality, this picture of a beauty under the moon, the gentleness, tranquility, and aloofness shown by the beauty in this picture at this moment, would have almost made him think that this was the girl's true nature.
Haha, misunderstanding, misunderstanding...
"Ahem... uh... what are you thinking about? But are you worried about what you will do tomorrow?" Qin Zhuen touched his nose.
"Not really." Yan Tian smiled slightly and didn't want to talk more. He raised his head and looked at the stars and the waning moon in the sky.
What to say? To lament to a man her dissatisfaction as a woman?
I'm afraid even a man would think that she is a madman who is restless at home.
Qin Zhuen turned his head to look at her, then raised his head to look up at the sky, and suddenly said: "My mother is often unwilling to accept that she is a woman. With her talent and mind, if she were a man, maybe...
"This is the way the world is. Regardless of talent, only men and women are judged. No matter how talented women are, the world just wants them to live in the back house and raise their husbands and children.
"Moreover, he is very harsh on women. He often doesn't ask what is right or wrong, and only thinks that men are superior to women. It is obviously the man who made the mistake, but he always blames the woman.
"Just like Daji and Bao Si in history, they were obviously ignorant kings who ruined the country and misled the people, but they all said that beauty was a disaster and women harmed the country. In fact, it was just men in power who found excuses for their stupid actions.
"To put all the blame on women is like this, as if women really ruined a country, and they were all deceived. It's so unreasonable! It's extremely shameless!"
Yan Tian turned around to look at Qin Zhuen in surprise, with a hint of prudence and solemnity in his eyes.
Qin Zhuen was panicked. He didn't know what he had said wrong, so he couldn't help but reached out and touched his nose again.
Suddenly, the spring water wrinkled and the stars rippled. Yan Tian's eyes seemed to be reflected in the starry sky. It flickered and shone like this, and her smile was as bright as fireworks.
At this moment, Qin Zhuen was simply dumbfounded. A wolf... and a dog suddenly stood up in his heart, howling at the crescent moon in the sky:
"Ooooooo... I just said she likes me, right?! Look, look, she smiled at me again! Ooooooh... she likes me!"
Sanshou: Master, is this... you confused yourself? !
In fact, Yan Tian's feelings towards Qin Zhuen are quite complicated. Previously I thought this man was drunk, lustful and vulgar. Later, I felt that this man was actually somewhat chivalrous and courageous, and seemed to be different from others.
Especially what happened this time made Yan Tian look at him with admiration. Even the previous comment about being "a drunkard and a womanizer" was put aside, and he decided to only respect Qin Zhuen as a "capable person" from now on.
You must know that there are very few people who can be regarded as "capable people" by Yan Tian! So far, only Luo Waizui, a fortune teller in Xijiekou, can hold this honor. It all depends on this person who is very good at observing words and colors. He can know ten from one thing and know the whole leopard from just one spot. Although he is a charlatan, he is really a remarkable person.
Now, Qin Zhuen is on par with this crooked fortune teller in Yan Tian's heart. I wonder if he will be so happy that he wants to kill someone if he finds out about it.
However, it has to be said that because he has been in the streets and rivers and lakes all year round and has made friends with various religions, Qin Zhuen has a perverse and cruel temper, and his behavior is erratic and unpredictable. In addition, he has been smart since he was a child, and he can easily learn the heresy and tricks of the charlatan, so he has become an expert in this field.
Being regarded as a "capable person" by Yan Tian is worthy of his reputation.
…
It was nearly noon on the second day, and Fuju, the largest restaurant in Luozhou City, came.
"Ye Jinxian" was sitting in the elegant room, pouring himself a drink, but his face did not show much comfort, but instead showed a hint of impatience and anxiety.
"Go to the door and have a look. Is the young lady here?"
"Ye Jinxian" casually ordered Wang'er, the newly bought young man. He spoke with great style and looked like a young master.
Wang'er hit Qian, turned around and ran out.
Looking at Wang'er's back, "Ye Jinxian" raised his neck and drank from the glass of wine. The fire in his heart that was originally burning due to waiting was calmed down a bit by the drinking, but then it seemed to turn into something else, lingering around the tip of his heart, lingering and scorpion-like itching. , but people can't always find that important and happy place, the place where they can scratch their itch.
Until Jin's face came to mind, the heat in his heart suddenly surged, but it seemed that he had finally found an outlet, and those lingering, scorpion-like itches finally found their source.
And then, the stunning face of Miss Yan, the daughter of the prefect, unexpectedly appeared in front of her eyes...
When Mrs. Jin came to the door of Jufulai with Hong Guo, she saw an unfamiliar boy looking towards her from a distance.
"But grandma?" Wang'er hurried over to say a thousand words, with a smile on his face which was very pleasing, "I am our eldest young master's new book boy Wang'er. The eldest young master has arrived a long time ago and is already waiting for you. The private room of 'Magpie Bridge Immortal' that I have booked is waiting for me."
Jin Huijuan looked at the clever young man in front of her and was a little puzzled, "Wang'er? Where's Han Yan? He always follows the young master. Besides, how do you know that I am your young mistress?"
"Look, since you mentioned Han Yan, she must be our eldest grandma." Wang'er smiled, then bent down and led Jin to go inside, and said Xu Xu, "Brother Han Yan made a mistake the day before yesterday. , which caused the eldest young master to lose his temper and handed it over to a tooth shop for sale. The younger young master Meng did not give up and was brought up to serve him.
"Although I have never met my eldest grandma, the eldest young master has told me about your appearance. In addition, you are the only female family member to come in at this time, and there is no serious person to accompany you except the maid.
"The most important thing is your arrogance and magnanimity. If you are not our eldest grandmother, who else can be worthy of you?"
These words made Jin couldn't help but look at the boy one more time. It's not surprising that "Ye Jinxian" dismissed Han Yan. After all, he is the old man who has been with him since he was a child. If he stays, it will easily cause trouble. But for such a smart boy, I don’t know where he got it from in just two days.
It was probably the first time that Wang'er met his mistress and he wanted to express himself to the best of his ability. He kept walking and talking:
"Grandma, you don't know that this morning when you sent Sister Xiaozhu from the prefect's family to deliver a message to our young master, our young master was as happy as anything. He told the youngster that he used to love eating this blessing the most. It’s hard for you to remember the roast duck. Fortunately, you have been thinking about this dish these days, so you made a reservation in a private room. "
"He said he used to love the duck here the most?"
"No."
Jin lowered his eyes and smiled slightly: "He was right."
Wang'er didn't pay attention and continued to flatter: "Originally, the eldest young master wanted to pick you up at the magistrate's house in person, and then come here to have lunch together. But Sister Xiaozhu also sent a message that you were here at the 'Magpie Bridge Immortal' Waiting in the private room, the eldest young master is really afraid that he will get separated again and miss it..."
While talking, Wang'er arrived at the door of Yajian'er. Wang'er opened the door curtain and saw "Ye Jinxian" wearing brocade clothes and mink fur sitting on the main seat.
As soon as he saw Mr. Jin coming, "Ye Jinxian" immediately stood up and came over with a smile on his face.
"Grandma is finally here, please let me husband wait." Her voice was soft and gentle, just like before.
Jin Huijuan lowered her eyes and tried to calm herself down, put on a smile, and saluted, avoiding the rough hands of "Ye Jinxian": "When I left the house, Tiantian had something important to say, so I was late. Don't blame me, husband."
As he spoke, he stood up and walked around, bowing his head, and sat down without waiting for "Ye Jinxian" to help him.
"Well……"
Ye Jinxian's eyes only felt blurry, and he stretched out his hands but failed to catch the beauty's catkins. When he woke up, he saw Jin sitting down and pouring a glass of wine for him personally.
"Husband please."
Jin Huijuan lowered her eyebrows and bowed her eyes respectfully. Her meek look made "Ye Jinxian" feel masculine and heroic.
He walked to the main seat in two steps, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp! Then she tilted her head at Jin Huijuan and said with a smile: "I wonder if Miss Yan has anything important to say to grandma? Is it related to her husband?"
Jin Huijuan frowned imperceptibly, but still smiled submissively on her face: "My husband is just joking. What does our boudoir whispering have to do with your husband?"
"...Haha..." "Ye Jinxian" laughed twice and reached out to grab Jin's hand, but Jin almost knocked over the soup bowl and burned his hand when he stood up to fill the soup.
"Ye Jinxian" was startled. He lowered his hands by two points, but continued to say frivolously: "Why did grandma think of inviting her husband to come here to have a meal today? You should have gone back home today, but you didn't I just sent a letter to ask my husband to get together outside first. But I miss my husband, and I think the family members are too picky to get close to her..."
Saying "Ye Jinxian", he stepped forward. Jin's face was flushed with embarrassment, and when she saw him coming, she was so frightened that she ran away. But how could "Ye Jinxian" let her escape from his grasp again? He stretched out his hand to hug her forcefully.
At this moment, Hongguo who was guarding the door suddenly shouted loudly: "Uncle! Uncle! You can't go in!"
Then Wang'er's blocking voice also came in: "You, you can't come in!"
"Get away!"
The two of them seemed unable to stop them. As soon as the door curtain was raised, a tall old man with gray beard and hair burst in.
As soon as Jin Huijuan saw the visitor, she immediately pushed "Ye Jinxian" away, stood up, bowed respectfully and called "uncle".
Unexpectedly, the old man ignored Mr. Jin and instead came straight towards "Ye Jinxian". He stretched out his hand and grabbed his collar with a "bang", then opened his bow left and right, and slapped him four times in the mouth...
