When Xie Wanyu heard someone calling her name, she hurriedly looked back, only to see that the person coming was Shen Jinyu.
Originally, Xie Wanyu thought that the two would never see each other again, but she never expected that they would meet on the street again.
At this time, he was followed by two attendants. Both of them were carrying large and small oil paper bags in their hands. It seemed that Shen Jinyu had bought a lot of food.
"Girl, I just called you by your name. It was really helpless. Please don't blame Shen." He bowed and said humbly.
Xie Wanyu nodded, "It's really fate to meet the young master here."
She gave a distant smile and then left.
Unexpectedly, Shen Jinyu walked up to her and walked in sync with her, "After that day, Shen also went to the front yard several times, but never saw the girl again."
"I haven't always lived there. Now that the weather is hot, it's a summer resort, so I go there often." Xie Wanyu said lightly.
Unexpectedly, seeing Xie Wanyu's attitude, Shen Jinyu didn't even blink at all, "That's it."
Xie Wanyu quickened her pace. The weather was getting hotter and hotter now. After taking a few steps, her forehead was soaked with sweat. She could only wipe her forehead with a handkerchief from time to time.
Shen Jinyu was very discerning, "Girl, my carriage is at the entrance of the alley. Wherever you go, I will take you there."
As he spoke, he pointed to the alley ahead.
Xie Wanyu looked at it and nodded.
Although she didn't want to have anything to do with Shen Jinyu, she had been used to a life of pampering since she was a child. If she were to walk home now, let alone whether she would be soaked with sweat, she would probably lose her feet halfway through the walk. They will all be exhausted.
Shen Jinyu was very happy to see that Xie Wanyu, who was rejected by others thousands of miles away, agreed to ride in his carriage, with a smile on his face.
Xie Wanyu walked to the entrance of the alley and saw the carriage parked there. The carriage was not very big, but it was elegantly decorated. There were signs with the word "Chen" hanging on the four corners of the carriage.
Anyone who can hang a surname plate on a carriage must be either rich or noble.
Looking at Shen Jinyu's clothes, Xie Wanyu knew that he was either rich or noble, but he was not as extravagant as a rich kid. Even the carriage had some books placed in it, which looked like a breath of fresh air.
Shen Jinyu told the driver to slow down before getting on the carriage.
He and Xie Wanyu sat face to face. Because there was a low table between them, the distance between them was not close. Xie Wanyu also felt that it was more comfortable this way.
Shen Jinyu picked up the book on the table and said, "Girl, don't you like reading? I have some good ones here, you can read them."
"Okay." Xie Wanyu thought that it was still some distance to go home anyway, and it would be awkward for the two of them to sit face to face, so it was better to read a book.
Shen Jinyu's books are all miscellaneous notes, interesting things about the world, customs and customs, which Xie Wanyu likes to read.
She really wanted to travel around, go to some places she wanted to go, and experience the beauty of each place. Unfortunately, as a daughter, she would have to live alone in the back house for the rest of her life.
So she could only read some miscellaneous notes, as if she were deep in the forest, and use this as a post.
Seeing that Xie Wanyu was reading with gusto, Shen Jinyu couldn't help but speak, "The girl seems to have a special liking for these miscellaneous notes."
"Well, because I can't go out to see it in person, I can only read books." Xie Wanyu looked a little lonely when she said this.
Shen Jinyu understood Xie Wanyu's feelings very well, so she smiled and said, "Actually, these are nothing. If the girl is willing, Shen is willing to take the girl to travel around the country."
He spoke impassionedly.
Xie Wanyu shook her head with a smile, "As a woman, your reputation is more important than your life. How can I travel around the world with you? But I still thank you."
Shen Jinyu pursed her lips, feeling annoyed and feeling that she was too reckless.
It was rare for Xie Wanyu to say a few words to him. What if he got disgusted because of it?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said, "I studied when I was young and have been to many places. If you want to hear it, girl, I can tell you about it."
Xie Wanyu put down the book, "I read in this miscellaneous note that there is a place that is like a paradise in the world."
"It just so happens that Shen has been there." Xie Wanyu asked casually, but she didn't expect that Shen Jinyu had been there.
His eyes lit up, "Really?"
"Of course." Shen Jinyu smiled, "When I was twelve years old, I went with my husband. I went to see the waterfall with my husband. Unexpectedly, I saw a group of birds flying into the waterfall. My husband and I We all like to explore, and then we found a cave behind the waterfall, and we both walked in without even thinking..."
Xie Wanyu listened with great interest.
When the driver saw that he had arrived at the Hou Mansion that Xie Wanyu mentioned, but the two of them were still chatting, he didn't even think about it and walked around in circles outside the house with a wink.
the other side.
Mrs. Xiao asked someone to check at the door several times, but she still didn't see Xie Wanyu coming back, which made her face look a little angry.
"How long has it been and she still hasn't come back? I see that she doesn't want to come back." Xiao Yinshuang said with a frown.
"Sister-in-law, don't say that. My brothers and sisters are also here for the Marquis. Everyone in our family should respect him in the future."
Hearing what she said, Mrs. Xiao had a sarcastic smile on her face, "Respect?"
"Grandma, don't listen to the eldest sister-in-law's nonsense. How can you respect me like this? She is the mistress of a high family. Although she is trying to save her husband, if she really wants to save face, she should die to show her ambition." Xiao Yinshuang said. .
After hearing what she said, Mrs. Xiao's expression softened a little.
Although Xie Wanyu was the one who came up with the plan when they were at their wits' end, as long as she entered Taishu Ai's room, she would not be innocent no matter what.
The master of the family was the only one who knew about this, but Mrs. Xiao would definitely not be happy in her heart.
She felt that Xie Wanyu was a noble girl, and if she really wanted to lose face, she should go back and commit suicide. This would also save her own face, and the Xiao family would be even more grateful to her.
It's just that Xie Wanyu is not back at this time, so Mrs. Xiao can't guarantee that she won't have random thoughts.
It would be fine if she really pleased Taishu Ai, but she had a stubborn temper. Mrs. Xiao was worried that Xie Wanyu would cause trouble in the palace, and their palace might be implicated.
Of course Xie Wanyu didn't know Mrs. Xiao's anxiety. She was still listening to Shen Jinyu's story at this time.
"...After we had dinner, the clan leader there also allocated a house to us. It's like spring all year round. The houses are not closed at night and no one picks up things on the street. As long as one person is in trouble, everyone will go to help. There are no disputes or quarrels."
After Shen Jinyu finished speaking, he probably felt thirsty, so he took out the water bag from under the table, took a sip, and then looked at Xie Wanyu awkwardly, "Would you like some?"
"I'm not thirsty." Xie Wanyu said, impatiently, "Are the people there really so peaceful?"
"Really, they are all incompetent." Shen Jinyu said.
