"Are you Mr. Wei San?"
Before Jiang Jiaojiao could raise her head, Caiyan exclaimed.
Jiang Jiaojiao bowed gracefully, "Young Master Wei, you're too polite. If you hadn't helped me, I would have fallen to the ground."
Wei Mingzhou was stunned, "Do you recognize me?"
Looking at the woman whose curtain and hat were knocked askew, Wei Mingzhou was not impressed at all.
Taking a closer look, under the woman's rosy-colored clothes, a piece of spring light is looming.
Wei Mingzhou secretly thought, could it be some girl from Hualou? !
I have been to so many flower houses that I really can’t remember them all.
Jiang Jiaojiao lifted the corner of the curtain and smiled, "Young Master Wei is so noble and forgets things. He forgot about me so quickly. We just met yesterday."
The girl's cheeks were rosy, her smile was as bright as a flower, and the charming charm between her brows made his heart sway.
"You, are you Miss Jiang Er?"
"I'm sorry, I'm blind. I was in such a hurry yesterday that I didn't even have time to say hello to Miss Jiang Er." Wei Mingzhou was surprised and his eyes swept around Jiang Jiaojiao.
Wei Mingzhou's young man saw Jiang Jiaojiao looking at his young master with a look on her face.
She was secretly worried. Her young master had hugged her just now. Did Miss Jiang Er plan to rely on his young master?
The boy looked left and right, but fortunately no one saw him.
He stepped forward and urged: "Master, it's getting late, let's go down the mountain quickly."
Caiyan saw that Wei Mingzhou's eyes were almost glued to Jiang Jiaojiao.
She picked up the round fan and stuffed it into Jiang Jiaojiao's hand, "It turns out that Young Master Wei is also going down the mountain, and he happened to be on his way. Let's go down together, and there will be someone to look after us on the way."
Jiang Jiaojiao looked at Wei Mingzhou shyly.
Wei Mingzhou quickly withdrew his greedy eyes and looked like a gentleman again.
"Miss Jiang, please come forward."
Seeing that Wei Mingzhou really wanted to go with Jiang Jiaojiao, the young man saw it in his eyes and felt anxious in his heart.
The eldest lady then invited a matchmaker to go to the Du family to propose marriage, and the person she proposed to marry was the Du family's legitimate second daughter.
My young master is a concubine, and if he can marry the second daughter of the Qing family of Dali Temple as his first wife, Miss Du is considered a low-married woman.
If the Wei family hadn't come from the queen's mother-in-law, they would have been rebuffed. The matchmaker didn't reply for several days, so the Du family must have been hesitating.
A lonely man and a widow were walking together. If they were caught by the Du family, the young master's marriage would be completely ruined.
Jiang Jiaojiao's attention was entirely on Wei Mingzhou, and Caiyan saw that the face of the boy beside Wei Mingzhou was uncertain.
She deliberately slowed down and approached the boy to find something to say, "Brother, you are so lucky to be assigned to serve by the Third Young Master. What's your name, brother? Is he a son of the same family?"
It is said that you should never hit someone with a smiling face. Caiyan looks pretty and very enthusiastic.
The boy soon started chatting animatedly with Caiyan.
"Little Aji, auspicious and wishful, the name given by the young master is regarded as the son of the family."
As the two chatted, the two masters in front of them distanced themselves.
Jiang Jiaojiao moved closer to Wei Mingzhou intentionally or unintentionally. Every time she took the next step, the pair of jade rabbits under the gauze trembled violently, as if they were about to jump out accidentally.
Wei Mingzhou glanced at it several times. The looming ravine made his mind wander and his mouth dry.
As he walked, he thought that compared to Jiang Jiaojiao and Du Yutong, Du Yutong was younger and looked better.
But Jiang Jiaojiao had a certain charm in her bones that Du Yutong didn't have.
If this Miss Jiang is brought into the room, she will definitely be more interesting than that lady who is as dignified as a piece of wood.
Jiang Jiaojiao took in Wei Mingzhou's expression in her eyes.
She kept talking to Wei Mingzhou, from playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting to interesting things in the capital.
"Miss Jiang Er, do you like listening to music?" Wei Mingzhou blurted out as he got interested in chatting.
"Listen to music? I don't dare. My father is very strict in discipline. How dare I go to Goulan to listen to music?"
Speaking of listening to music, Wei Mingzhou's eyebrows were full of joy, and he almost showed his true colors, "Who said that listening to music can only be found in Goulanwashe? Do you know the Mingpinxuan in the capital?"
Jiang Jiaojiao shook her head and looked at Wei Mingzhou with admiration.
"The talented and beautiful people in the capital love to go to Mingpinxuan to drink tea and listen to music. The songs the Jiangnan girls there sing are better than the opera troupe that my grandmother invited for her sixtieth birthday."
While they were talking, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. Wei Mingzhou invited: "It's still early at this time. Could you please go to Mingpinxuan to listen to a gentle Jiangnan song?"
"Isn't this not good?" Jiang Jiaojiao stopped and bit her lip shyly and reservedly.
Wei Mingzhou looked like he wanted to refuse but still wanted to welcome her, making Wei Mingzhou wish he could hold her in his arms and cherish her.
Wei Mingzhou was no longer a youngster. He could tell at a glance that Jiang Jiaojiao was interested in him.
While the boy and Cai Yan were still two feet away, they were talking.
At this time, there were not many people at the foot of the mountain. He looked up and saw that his driver was not far ahead.
He simply took Jiang Jiaojiao's hand and said, "Let's ride in my carriage together. It won't be too late to take you home after listening to the song."
"Young Master Wei, it's not good for people to see men and women not being intimate." Jiang Jiaojiao had no intention of breaking away, and followed Wei Mingzhou to the carriage as if her steps were not obeying her orders.
"What are you afraid of, Miss Jiang? You are not married and I am not married. Who dares to gossip about us?"
The feeling of holding the girl's soft little hand was different from holding the girl's hand in Hualou. Wei Mingzhou was seduced by Jiang Jiaojiao's charming and passionate expression and lost his mind.
He led the person into the carriage without any explanation.
"Go to Mingpinxuan."
Wei Mingzhou got on the carriage and ordered the driver.
"Hey! Master, wait a minute!"
When the boy Aji found out, the carriage had already driven away.
Caiyan couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering. Fortunately, she was smart and pestered Aji's parents along the way, so the young lady was able to get close to Mr. Wei San.
The moment Young Master Wei pulled the young lady onto the carriage, Caiyan saw it.
"Aji, the same goes for riding in our carriage."
Aji had no other choice and followed Caiyan into the carriage of Shangshu Mansion.
He said to the coachman: "Hurry, follow the carriage in front, my young master is waiting for me in front."
Aji sat opposite Caiyan, opening the car curtain from time to time and looking forward, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles under his buttocks.
The young master is really confused. If the eldest lady finds out about this, she will have to file a complaint in front of the master. If the marriage between the Wei family and the Du family is ruined, the young master will not get any good results.
Mingpinxuan is located on West Street. Although it is not as bustling and noisy as East Street, it has an elegant environment.
Wei Mingzhou asked for a private room and two pots of tea.
Jiang Jiaojiao took off her curtain hat. Under the low-cut tulle, it looked like the mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, which made people think a lot.
Jiang Jiaojiao blushed when she heard the song "Midnight Love Song".
Wei Mingzhou quickly called the waiter and specially ordered the elegant song "Die Lian Hua".
"Don't mind, Miss Jiang. The erotic words the singer sang just now may have been ordered by other guests."
In order to prevent Jiang Jiaojiao from having a bad impression of him, Wei Mingzhou quickly explained and distanced himself.
"It doesn't matter, they are just trying to make ends meet." Jiang Jiaojiao also tried her best to be considerate.
The two of them were in love and the concubine was interested. Wei Mingzhou ordered some food and drinks and had lunch before sending Jiang Jiaojiao back to the Shangshu Mansion.
This was just a carriage following Jiang Jiaojiao's carriage.
Jiang Jiaojiao got off the carriage and looked up to see Jiang Shuyue, Qiu Ju and a tall servant standing in front of the Shangshu Mansion.
