The new cognition seems a bit tricky to Pei Yanzhou.
Song Jinyin valued the embroidery workshop, which meant that she planned to take root here. If he wanted to let her leave, there would inevitably be another dispute.
But Pei Yanzhou still thought carefully for a moment, and then said: "Lin Jingxiu is so arrogant all day long, so let him go to the embroidery workshop."
Xuanwei bowed his head and responded.
The identity of this young master of the Lin family is no longer a secret in Luo City.
All the children of officials in Luo City can't compare with the eldest princess's own son and your majesty's nephew.
No matter how those people look for opportunities to pick up embroidery workshops, they can't beat this young master from Kyoto City to go to the embroidery workshop and order some goods.
This is the fastest way to regain the reputation of the embroidery workshop.
Xuanwei retreated, and Pei Yanzhou's mind returned to the little girl in front, just wanting to make her less sad.
Just this thought made her think of the embroidery shop owner who helped her escape from Kyoto.
There was a lot of information in the secret letter, but what made him most suspicious was that the man's servant had contacts with people in the Hou's mansion.
The Zhou family has not cared much about outside affairs for a long time, and the eldest son of Zhou is also very diligent in the Ministry of Industry, and there is very little drinking and interaction among the officials. Now they are the owner of an embroidery workshop that is not very prominent in Kyoto City. There is involvement, which is puzzling no matter how you think about it.
Especially this person, not only was he familiar with Shen Yuhe, but he also seemed to know Xu Youyi, who had just returned to Kyoto.
But after all, when he opened those shops, Xu Youyi was no longer in Kyoto, so the two of them should have had nothing in common.
Just as he was thinking about it, another Xuanwei came forward, bowed his head and delivered the letter.
"Master, there is a dried fruit shop at the corner of this street. The shopkeeper there likes to gamble. He once interacted with the Yi family's slaves in the gambling shop. Moreover, the shopkeeper once worked as a coachman, so he must be somewhat familiar with horses."
"Then let's go check it out and ask Lin Jingxiu to go to the embroidery workshop earlier to avoid being targeted and unable to escape."
"Yes, Master."
Xuanwei responded and was about to leave, but he heard the person in front of him say again: "Send two more people to follow him. If those people are really cruel, he won't be able to escape."
Lin Jingxiu's skills are acceptable, but he can't stand the enemy in the open and in the dark.
Now that he didn't want to return to Kyoto at this time, Pei Yanzhou could only send more people to follow him to avoid any mistakes.
Song Jinyin, who had stopped in front, moved her steps and looked ready to leave, but the next moment, Cang Lin stopped her again with a sad face.
"Miss Jinyin, if you don't get on the carriage, I'm afraid my subordinates will have to collect the punishment again."
Song Jinyin really wanted to say, you take your punishment and I will go my own way, but the person in front of her blocked her and refused to get out of the way, and the eyes of people coming and going were inevitably cast intermittently.
Song Jinyin smiled and gritted her teeth.
"I don't know, but Brother Cang Lin has learned a lot from Pei Yanzhou's shamelessness."
The words were sarcastic and mixed with anger, and no one dared to answer them.
Cang Lin lowered his head, avoiding the resentment in Song Jinyin's eyes, while tightening his body to prevent her from leaving.
He didn't want to be so rogue, but what he said was true.
The master himself did not dare to mess with the girl, but he ordered him to pick up the girl. If the person failed to pick up the girl, he would not be able to escape from the punishment.
"The girl misunderstood..."
"Miss Song Ci, you haven't left yet!"
Just as he was about to explain a few words, a simple and honest male voice came from the side, breaking the deadlock between the two of them.
But after the voice fell, it paused, and finally continued with hesitation: "Is Miss Song Ci in trouble?"
"Brother Guan."
Song Jinyin's voice was clear, her sneer faded, and she became somewhat gentle.
Hearing this inquiry, she originally wanted to nod and leave with the visitor, but when she thought of the sword in Cang Lin's hand, she suppressed the impulse in her heart.
"I haven't encountered any trouble. This is my former compatriot. Now he is prosperous. Come and take a look at me."
"That's because I was overthinking. I thought...I'm sorry, little brother."
The man smiled at Cang Rin, but when he saw the long sword on his side, he subconsciously froze, and then looked back at the girl in front of him.
He doesn't come to the embroidery workshop often, so he has very little contact with the girls there and has no other thoughts.
But this time he came to help, and seeing that Song Ci was both good-looking and capable, he couldn't help but take a closer look, and was a little moved, wondering if he could have more contact with her in the future.
Now he saw that this girl seemed to have met someone powerful. Although he was a little scared, he still couldn't help but ignore it.
"I just happened to accept a job today, and I'm on the way with Miss Song Ci. How about I wait for the girl to finish talking about old times and join us?"
This was somewhat inappropriate, but when Song Jinyin saw the nervous expressions on the people in front of her, she knew that she was still frightened by Cang Lin and thought she was in trouble.
She felt a little grateful.
This elder brother Guan is Wu Xiuzhang's nephew. He is just a young man and has excellent carpentry skills. He occasionally comes to the embroidery workshop to help with work.
I only met a few times on weekdays and exchanged a few words.
But recently she wanted to replace two wooden chairs at home, so she chatted a little more.
Now that he stopped in front of her, he must have been an upright and honest man, so he had the courage to speak up and wanted to help.
But the more this happens, the less she can implicate others.
"Brother Guan, please go ahead. You don't have to wait for me. I am a fellow countryman who works beside the nobles on weekdays. I have some free time recently. It happens that my eldest brother is looking for a new job, so I will ask a few more questions for him."
For the sake of safety, Song Jinyin talked to others about not only her sister, but also several brothers.
Now that she talks more, she becomes more and more fluent, without hesitation at all.
After hearing this, the man looked at her carefully and saw that there was no reluctance on her face, so he nodded.
"Then I won't delay Miss Song Ci's reminiscing about old times. I'll tell her tomorrow. Miss, please be careful about the cold weather and don't freeze yourself. There is also the wooden chair. I will send it back to her when she is free."
"Thank you very much, Brother Guan. I will bring my jujube cake to Brother Guan and Sister Lianxiang tomorrow."
"good!"
The man lowered his head and smiled honestly, looked at her again, and then turned and left.
Kurin's eyelids twitched.
Even though he knew that his master was on the path in the distance at the moment, he still felt the overwhelming oppression and hostility.
All after that big brother Guan sounded.
But he didn't know why there was a young man in this embroidery workshop, and listening to those words, it seemed that Miss Jinyin had a lot of acquaintances with him in private, and she was willing to let him into her small courtyard.
It wasn't until the man was far away that Cang Lin coughed softly and looked over, "Miss Jinyin, who is this?"
"Brother Cang Lin doesn't need to worry about the people in the embroidery workshop."
Song Jinyin's look back was obviously less enthusiastic than just now.
Just remembering how unreasonable that man had been, she pursed her lips and then added after hesitation: "I don't think Brother Cang Lin needs to talk to Pei Yanzhou about such a trivial matter."
As soon as he said these words, not only his eyelids, but also Cang Lin's eyebrows jumped.
If possible, he didn't want to mention a word, but he didn't need to say anything because the person had already seen it clearly from beginning to end.
Fortunately, Miss Jin Yin specifically told me this.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like the girl is protecting the man just now, treating her master as a villain, for fear that he will take action and do some evil things.
"There's no need for my subordinate to carry it...Girl, you'd better get in the car first, it's cold outside."
Song Jinyin wasn't sure what he meant.
But seeing that this man was not planning to let her leave, and not wanting other embroiderers to see him and make unnecessary guesses, she resigned herself to her fate and got into the car.
The carriage moved slowly.
On the trail in the distance, Pei Yanzhou looked ahead, his jaw tightened, the aura around him was cold and seductive, and his black eyes were filled with forbearance.
The little girl who saw him smiled with crooked eyebrows, her watery eyes were not as cold as when she faced him, and her friend's smile was kind and bright. He seemed to be overwhelmed by the jealousy surging in his heart.
That sweet smile originally belonged only to him.
Even Song Jinyin was always just his girl.
But now Song Jinyin was smiling dazzlingly at everyone, but she didn't like his approach, and she was disgusted with him. She no longer wanted to remember the words she called "Brother Yan Zhou" when they first met.
Just thinking about it made Pei Yan Zhou feel his heart was blocked.
No one knew how much effort it took for him to resist the urge to step forward.
Even though the carriage had already left here, at this moment, his mind was filled with Song Jinyin's gentle and obedient smile.
Pei Yanzhou's hand unconsciously touched the jade pendant.
It was originally an inconspicuous thing, but to him, it was so cheap that it was not worth mentioning.
But he was accidentally tainted with Song Jinyin's aura and her childhood past, so she unknowingly became his treasure.
The coolness of the jade pendant allowed Pei Yanzhou to regain some clarity, and also allowed him to see his heart at the moment more clearly.
He thought there were cracks in his forbearance.
Starting from the word "husband-in-law" in the mouth of others in the small village, to the tenderness she feels towards strange men now.
There was a voice in his heart that was trying to destroy his few sanity.
It was as if he said word for word that he wanted to see her, to see her truly, instead of hiding in the dark and watching her laughing with others.
The man's eyes moved slightly, and darkness flashed through them.
After struggling, he finally turned around, tapped his toes, and disappeared into the path in a flash.
...
Pei Yanzhou returned to Song Jinyin's courtyard first.
In the end, he still had some sense left, thinking that if she was unhappy, he could use the rabbit as an excuse.
But the man's trace of reason completely shattered after seeing the jade pendant on her bedside.
The jade pendant is crystal clear. The flowers and birds on it surround the mythical beasts. The lines are fine and smooth, and the craftsmanship is amazing. In the middle, there is a word "Chen" engraved on it.
You can tell at a glance that it is not vulgar.
It should be something that shows his identity, just like his Xuanwei Token or the Pei Family White Jade.
This kind of jade pendant and the word "Chen" will never appear on anyone else except the Shen family in Jiangnan.
But this jade pendant was not only in her room, but also fell on her bedside, with the meaning of seeing something on the pillow and missing someone.
Pei Yanzhou's eyes turned into pieces of ice, and his expression sank little by little.
