Wei Zheng smiled and said nothing. After rinsing his chopsticks, the store just happened to bring wontons to him.
He picked one up, blew on it, and the soft white dough slipped into his lips. He took it in with his teeth, biting open the thin meat filling inside, and ate it calmly.
Speaking of which, both he and Wei Cheng were not picky about their food. They could eat delicacies and ate happily from street stalls.
Her plan was not necessarily his fault, but it must have been his help. Now he was still sitting opposite her eating wontons as if nothing had happened. Shen Yinxiao secretly sneered, put down his chopsticks, and watched him eat.
Xu Yu finally arrived late, Qing Fei bit her lip and lowered her head to follow her.
Seeing her and Wei Zheng sitting opposite each other, eating wontons, Xu Yu smiled, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Madam."
Wei Zheng said "Hmm" and continued to eat his wontons. Shen Yinxiao didn't even look at her and said coolly: "Xu Yu told me to wait, and she's not afraid that I'll be kidnapped with all her jewels. What will happen then?" I'll give it to your master."
Xu Yu smiled: "Madam, you are joking. This is Youzhou. Who dares to be rough with Madam..."
"What are you laughing at?" She raised her eyebrows, tilted her head, and stared at her expressionlessly.
"What?" Xu Yu didn't react.
"Let me ask you, what's so funny?" Her eyes were cold and she still tilted her head to look at the woman standing in front of her. She frivolously picked up a chopstick on the bowl and tapped the table repeatedly. "Tell me."
Da da da--
Wei Zheng stopped what he was doing and looked at the chopsticks on her fingertips playfully, or he was watching her fingertips playing with the chopsticks.
A charming and gorgeous woman, with lustrous and attractive fingertips and gentle skin, she has a fierce and restless heart.
He sneered lowly, put himself out of the situation, and continued to eat the wontons in the bowl.
Xu Yu's back was numb with embarrassment, and the smile on her face froze, and she slowly pursed her lips: "This slave deserves to die."
Qing Fei's eyes widened and he quickly lowered his head.
"Go back, I'll go back by myself tonight." She said calmly.
Xu Yu was shocked: "How can this be done? My wife is alone outside. If something goes wrong..."
She smiled half-heartedly: "Didn't you say this is Youzhou? Who dares to touch me?"
Another man's sneer came.
Xu Yu's face turned red and white.
In the end, there was a stalemate. Seeing Shen Yinxiao's expression was cold and he didn't want to see her again. After hesitating for a long time, he had no choice but to turn around and ask Wei Zheng for help, and finally left stiffly with Qing Fei.
She glanced at the figure disappearing at the end of the street, smiled lightly and said to Wei Zheng, who had finished eating his wontons: "Please be patient, I'll leave first."
"Where are you going?" He raised his head and looked at the girl who stood up.
The girl has a silver fox and white fur, a pink face, a touch of vermilion on her lips, and gorgeous and enchanting eyebrows. Such a woman is naturally the focus of all men when she walks on the street, not to mention that she is also a woman covered in beauty.
"Anyway, I won't leave Fan Yang even half a step." She smiled.
He didn't mind the condescension in her words at all, smiled, and stood up: "What your servant girl said doesn't make sense. If you go back alone, accidents will inevitably happen."
"I'll give it to you. After all, Erlang calls me big brother."
She nodded: "That's fine."
Wei Zheng actually followed her unhurriedly. The two of them walked through several streets and alleys, and finally stopped at the place where she used to live.
There were only a few people inside, so she hesitated for a moment and then opened the door.
In the room, Shen's mother was making sobering soup, while Shen's father was drunk and took a nap on the bed.
Looking around, there were indeed a lot of new things added to the house. Wei Cheng didn't lie to her, there were indeed delicious food and drinks.
There were also two camphor wood boxes placed in the main room. With her sharp eyes, she could see that they were not in the house before.
The two servants were not surprised when they saw her coming in. They bowed and retreated to the courtyard.
Wei Zheng also stopped in time, put his hands behind his back, and turned around.
It was not what she expected. She paused and then returned to normal.
She called her father and mother.
Mother Shen thought she had heard wrongly, and her hand shaking as she scooped up the hangover soup.
Father Shen slowly opened his eyes and his expression changed when he saw her.
"How did you come?"
She froze.
Father Shen frowned: "Come here, do they know?"
She pursed her lips.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Father Shen's expression changed: "Did you sneak out?"
"Go back quickly, go back quickly, if I can't find you, something will happen again."
A trace of cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her voice was dry: "It's a holiday today, and I want to come and see you."
There was a long silence.
"I've seen it." Father Shen got up and wandered to the table. When he passed the camphor box, he closed the lock and said, "Just go back."
Mother Shen lowered her eyes.
"What is that?" She looked at the box, "I've never seen it before."
"Nothing, just put some miscellaneous things." Father Shen seems to be living a good life these days, and has more flesh on his face.
Shen Yinxiao approached and opened the box.
It's a chest full of gold.
Father Shen stood up immediately: "Hey, you kid, you are so shameless, what are you doing!"
She turned a deaf ear, picked up a gold bar, and rubbed the engraving on the back of the gold bar.
It is a gold bar made by Youzhou officials.
"Did he give it to you?" she asked in a low voice. The gold bar in her hand seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and her hands couldn't help but tremble under the pressure. "I will take you away, and you should leave a message for his people."
A drop of tear fell on the cold gold bar. She wiped the end of her eyes without leaving a trace, turned her head, and looked at the two guilty people in the room with her bright eyes.
"If you want to sell me, you should at least discuss it with me, right?" Her voice was calm.
Mother Shen murmured: "Your father can't help it... he just doesn't want you to know, for fear that you won't want to."
Father Shen paused. He originally thought that she would make a scene no matter what, but he didn't know why she was so calm.
I didn't know what to say for a moment, so I sat down impatiently and waved my hand.
"I'm afraid you won't want to." He picked up the hangover soup and drank a glass.
"Am I a commodity?" She looked at him with wide eyes, her throat shaking.
She suddenly realized that the father in front of her was so strange. Even though he had done many things wrong in the past, in her memory, he was always good to her.
Mother Shen put the robe on Father Shen, and he pushed it away.
"Actually, what's the point of walking? There are hundreds of thousands of roads in the world, but there are only two that are open to women. Either get married or become a prostitute. Instead of serving those poor men outside, it is better to stay by Mr. Wei's side. , win over him and get benefits from him, so that our whole family can live a better life, which is much better than you working hard outside doing business."
"Did he ask you to tell me these words?" Her lips were cold and her body was trembling slightly.
Father Shen shook his head and frowned: "You girl, only I can tolerate you talking like this. From now on, you must be more respectful around Mr. Wei, bury your dissatisfaction deep in your heart, and pretend to be cute and cute no matter how angry you are. Please him and make him comfortable, just like your mother and me. Only in this way can he love you and you can live a good life."
He sighed: "Don't think about running away again."
No wonder he lingered for a long time beside Yishui.
No wonder they never came to see her these days.
In fact, they all know it.
They know everything.
They looked at themselves struggling like fishermen on the shore looking at the fish in the fishing net. On the surface, they looked sympathetic, but when they turned around, they revealed cold and sarcastic faces.
She laughed, a low laugh that made her whole chest tremble.
Father Shen frowned: "After all, you have been reading books for so many years. You have to be more polite when talking and joking. Otherwise..."
"I know." She said calmly.
Father Shen didn't look good when she interrupted him.
"In that case, I'm going back." She brushed her sleeves and turned around to go out.
"Wait a minute, since you're back, let's sit here for a while." Father Shen said slowly.
Shen Yinxiao frowned, and a gentle but coercive man's voice sounded at the door.
"It's getting late, let's go back."
Wei Zheng stood at the door with a calm expression, looking at her stiffly calmly. Seeing that her face was pale and her red lips were getting more and more gorgeous, he tilted his head and smiled like a boy.
