Chapter 66: Unforgettable

Qin Si whispered: "Follow her for me, be sure to find out where she lives!"
Although the entourage was puzzled, he led away. The two young women took the maid out of the Buddhist temple. They tracked them all the way to the crowd, but they were dispersed by the incense holders. When they went to look for them, they were long gone.
On the carriage, Li Xuening looked at Jiang Xiaolou and said, "This is what you call Qin Si."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled and nodded, with a gentle smile: "Naturally."
"Sure enough, he is handsome and straight, with a romantic posture. I think if I am a few years younger, I will also like such a man." Li Xuening said softly.
Jiang Xiaolou smiled coldly, like, love? What is that? Those are just the momentary confusions of young and frivolous, and finally shattered in the cold reality. The white paper is splashed with ink, it will only become more and more dirty, how can it return to the original white as snow. All love is just a dream, she has long woke up from the dream.
Li Xuening hesitated: "He seemed to think of me as you at first, very excited."
Jiang Xiaolou took a sip of tea with an indifferent expression: "Whether it is excitement or fear, only he knows."
Li Xuening felt that something was wrong: "It would be too dangerous for you to appear rashly in front of him like this, if he—"
"No matter how smart a person is, he will make the wrong choice at the most critical moment, and he is the same." Jiang Xiaolou smiled.
If she didn't meet the wrong person for the first time, maybe she wouldn't be homeless or dilapidated. Now, it was time for her to seek justice from the Qin family. Qin Si, you should wash your neck and wait slowly.
She lifted the curtain of the car and looked out the window, her eyes were crystal clear, as innocent as a child, but clear enough to swallow everything.
Early the next morning, Jiang Xiaolou and Xie Liancheng left the house, attracting countless servants and maidservants. Jiang Xiaolou knew this news would surely explode in Xie's house, but she didn't care about anyone's ideas, because she had more important things to do.
Xie Liancheng had already hired people according to Jiang Xiaolou’s request, but he didn’t know what Jiang Xiaolou was going to do, so he called everyone to see Jiang Xiaolou and said, "These people are I came here according to your requirements, with a clean family and a strong body. I selected them from various shops. Are there any other requirements?"
Jiang Xiaolou looked around everyone, and said: "This is already very good, Master Xie, is the boat ready?"
Xie Liancheng nodded, and pointed to the big boat on the dock, saying: "Do you think this boat is big enough?"
Jiang Xiaolou looked up and saw that it was a giant ship. There were many sailors walking on the deck, very busy, and looked very grand. Jiang Xiaolou couldn't help but exclaimed: "I just said that I need a boat, but I didn't say that it should be this big, which is too—" She said halfway, and Xie Liancheng smiled: "No ordinary boat can fit. With so many people, I bought this one half a year ago. It is specially used to do silk business in the south. It is usually not used. Since you need it, naturally you can use it first. If you don’t like it, you can change the boat. "
Jiang Xiaolou naturally won't bother anymore, so he can only express his gratitude again: "No, this is already very good."
She and Xie Liancheng boarded the boat together, and the others boarded the boat soon after. Xie Liancheng asked Jiang Xiaolou to directly board the cabin on the second floor of the cabin, stepping into the cabin door, and a passage extending forward, with windows open on both sides, and delicate and simple tables and chairs in the middle. There was only a river map on the wall. As soon as he sat down, a servant came up to put up snacks and tea, and Xie Liancheng ordered that he could set sail.
All the way forward, they soon walked out of a shallow bend. Jiang Xiaolou took a piece of parchment from his arms and studied it earnestly. Xie Liancheng took a look, only to think that the drawing on the paper was very strange. There are many strange patterns and symbols criss-crossed, and he can see that this is a map at a moment's notice, but he can't tell where it is.
"What the does this mean?" He asked, pointing to one of the lighthouse-shaped symbols.
Jiang Xiaolou turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile, "Master Xie will understand later."
Seeing that she was so mysterious, Xie Liancheng didn't continue to ask, but he recognized a few more directions, and had a faint feeling in his heart. The view from the second-floor cabin is excellent, and Jiang Xiaolou can clearly see all the situation in his eyes. When the boat reached a place where the river was rushing, Jiang Xiaolou suddenly said, "Just stop ten meters ahead."
After Jiang Xiaolou delineated the area, the servants Xie Liancheng found cast the fishing net down according to her instructions. The fishing net soon became very heavy. They fished up the net with great force, only to find that it was a fish. The little piglet, who was turning purple and even beginning to rot, and some criss-crossed plants and stones, couldn't help but look at each other. Jiang Xiaolou said, "Put down this piglet."
They had just put the piglet on the deck, and they saw dozens of eel fry pouring out of the piglet's belly and out of the ground. Xie Liancheng was taken aback for a moment when he suddenly understood what Jiang Xiaolou was doing.
Jiang Xiaolou glanced at the eel fry and smiled: "All the fry are collected and raised, and then the piglets will be returned to the river."
No one thought that it was amazing that so many eel fry would be harvested from this net.
Next, the giant ship drove through more than 20 places, and every piglet that was salvaged was very rich. At least there were dozens of eel fry, as many as thousands, and the number was extremely shocking. The eyes of those servants were straight.
Xie Liancheng looked bright and clear: "Now I understand why you want to enter Xie's house."
Jiang Xiaolou looked sideways upon hearing the sound: "Did Master Xie understand so soon?"
Xie Liancheng smiled with a hint of wisdom: "You use these piglets as bait to catch tens of thousands of eel fry, but you can't complete such a heavy salvage task only by your own strength. More importantly, Even if it is salvaged, it will be coveted by others. If someone has a wicked intention, I am afraid that the gain is not worth the loss."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled with a hint of approval, Xie Liancheng guessed right, there are too many greedy people in this world, she must be careful of the embankment. If a female streamer hires a lot of people to salvage piglets and then harvest tens of thousands of eel fry, I am afraid that those people will start to fight before she gets ashore, drown her in the river, and then the eel fry. Up. Where is her turn to send the fry out for sale?
Xie Liancheng looked at the eel fry in front of him, and muttered: "If all the eel fry are sold, you will become a richer man than the Xie family. No wonder you don't care about the Xie family's property."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled softly: "No matter how rich the Xie family is, it belongs to you. Wealth that does not belong to me is undesirable. What you just said is true. Of course, I can't complete such a huge project by myself. I have already and Uncle Xie. Say yes, take advantage of his shop and friends to sell these eel fry in batches, and the profit will be divided into 37%."
Xie Liancheng was taken aback: "Three to seven are divided?"
Jiang Xiaolou nodded: "Yes, Uncle Xie is seven, I am three."
Xie Liancheng was completely surprised, watching Jiang Xiaolou for a long time without speaking. For a long time, there was a smile in his deep eyes: "Miss Jiang, if there is someone more cunning than you in this world, then I don't believe it. Not only will my father not accept the 70% benefit, he will turn it around. Help you unconditionally, am I right?"
Jiang Xiaolou didn't hesitate: "Yes, Uncle Xie did not accept this 70%. So in the end, we negotiated. He only had 30%, which is considered as the labor cost allocated for my eel fry to recover a little cost."
With so many eel fry, even a third of the profit is amazing. As a woman, Jiang Xiaolou knows that all the benefits should be shared is really rare. Xie Liancheng looked at her deeply with an expression of joy and anger: "When did you make such an attempt to Xie's family?"
The corner of Jiang Xiaolou’s lips made a smile. He was so transparent and could not hide anything from his eyes: "Why try to use such words? I sell this batch of eel fry, I can make money, Xie family It is also very fruitful. This is something that is mutually beneficial. It should be called cooperation. Why does the son say so badly?"
Xie Liancheng fixedly looked at her eyes, her eyes deep as the sea: "From the beginning, you entered Xie's house for this, right? How about approaching my father?"
Jiang Xiaolou raised his eyebrows and smiled: "No, son, you guessed it wrong. The most important reason I approached Uncle Xie was because I wanted to meet his father's best friend during his lifetime, and also wanted to know if he was as trustworthy as his father said. The eel fry, when I heard Uncle Xie talk about his art of fortune-telling. If I could have thought of it before, it is really an unknown prophet. But what you said is not all wrong. I did enter Xie’s house. The conspiracy in this regard is based on a woman's body, wanting to occupy such a large wealth without being encroached on by others, this is a fantasy."
Xie Liancheng lowered his face slightly and said, "Are you not afraid of causing disaster to the Xie family?"
Jiang Xiaolou squinted his eyes and thought for a while, smiling like a spring breeze: "Master Xie, if someone asks me like this, I will laugh it off. Although Jiang's family is rich, his father has not been able to get the support of the rich and powerful. With low dispatch days, it is still unavoidable that the family will be destroyed. How rich is the Xie family, able to establish a foothold in the capital, own countless shops, and lead such a luxurious life. If there is no support behind it, how can it survive today?"
Xie Liancheng saw her faintly faintly like spring flowers, and his heart moved for a while without speaking.
Jiang Xiaolou turned around and looked at the riverside in the distance. There were small boats floating on the river. The fishermen were constantly casting their nets to fish, but it was hard to make ends meet. How sad. She said calmly: "Master Xie, I don't know who is behind the Xie family, but I know that those powerful and powerful will never let go of the Xie family, who can shave oil. You are still safe and sound and continue to maintain a rich and luxurious life. It is enough to show that the backer behind can provide the best shelter. Now I just borrow the big tree of Uncle Xie to enjoy the shade, so you don’t have to be so nervous."
Xie Liancheng curled his mouth unconsciously. The smart woman in this world always likes to hide herself, but Jiang Xiaolou doesn't. She doesn't hide her talents, nor does she bother to hide. She will tell you everything straightforwardly, and put the benefits and conditions directly in front of you, depending on whether you accept it. Don't like to deceive and deceive, but choose to face the truth.
His eyes flashed with unidentified brilliance, and he slowly replied: "You are right. The Xie family does have a support, and this support can also guarantee you worry-free. You can rest assured that this batch of eel fry will be successfully sold at a high price. At that time you will get what you deserve, and no one will dare to give you an idea."
If a large number of eel fry swarms into the market, the price will definitely be lowered. In order to maintain their value, they must be sent to different cities for sales and successfully delivered to the tables of the rich and powerful. This requires the Xie family's huge business network to come. Worked.
Jiang Xiaolou breathed a sigh of relief, but heard Xie Liancheng say again: "I wanted to return these things to you a long time ago, but I haven't had a chance. Now this opportunity has arrived." As he said, he took one from his arms. The land deed and the house deed were folded and handed to Jiang Xiaolou.
Jiang Xiaolou took a closer look, her complexion changed slightly, she suddenly raised her head and stared at Xie Liancheng, "Why are these shops in your hands?"
Xie Liancheng said: "Since the first day you returned to the Jiang family, my father and I have been running around, hoping to bring back all the shops that originally belonged to the Jiang family and return them to you. Unfortunately, some of the shops belong to the royal family in the capital. The dignity has a very wide range. Even if it is reluctantly brought back, I am afraid it will cause you trouble. So we only took 15 of them, and all of them have been cleaned up. It is now in front of you.
Jiang Xiaolou was stunned. She did not expect that Uncle Xie and Xie Liancheng were busy all over the place during this period of time. It was because of her. Suddenly, complicated emotions surged in my heart, and the stormy sea almost knocked her down. Jiang Xiaolou is a very calculating person. From the first day she approached Xie's house, she had made up her mind to use Xie's house to help herself stand up again.
However, Xie Kanghe and Xie Liancheng actually helped her and trusted her so regardless of gains or losses. Thinking like this, the warm current flows slowly, and their hearts are involuntarily moved. Jiang Xiaolouyu lifted his eyelashes and raised his eyes again, his eyes softened: "Master, I was wrong this time. I shouldn't always be wary of you, let alone use money to measure others. I only I thought that all businessmen are the same, but I never thought that there would be someone like Uncle Xie who values ​​righteousness and forgets profit. What my father said is right. Uncle Xie is indeed a trustworthy and reliant elder. From now on I will never again. When it comes to money, don't worry."
Seeing that she had understood what she meant, Xie Liancheng smiled and said, "If my father knew, he would be very happy. You don't have to feel guilty. If anyone is in your position, they will make the same choice as you. Because you no longer trust people. This is not your fault, but the sins committed by those who have betrayed and hurt you."
Jiang Xiaolou looked at Xie Liancheng. She didn't expect the gentle and elegant man in front of her to know her and respect her so much. However, for this kind of respect, she will feel at a loss. There are not many people in this world who can move her, so that she can no longer get used to it.
Xie Liancheng saw the glittering light in her eyes, turned his face thoughtfully, and looked into the distance with a smile: "Actually, I really admire you. Back then, I had a conflict with my father because of a little incident. I ran away from home and swore to him that if I could not become a wealthy businessman like him, I would never return to Xie's house."
Jiang Xiaolou was taken aback: "Is there a time when the old man is so reckless and stubborn?"
Xie Liancheng cast a pair of dark eyes on Jiang Xiaolou’s white face. His smile was very charming and wide, and his voice was even more intoxicating: "At that time, I chose the business of silk and satin village, but it was excluded by opponents. My business plummeted, and I even fell to the point of selling fruit on the street to make a living. Once, as soon as the cargo arrived, it rained heavily, and I delayed my trip, and the fruit started to rot. I wanted to rely on it. This business made a fortune. Not only did it fail, but even the last bit of capital went in. At this time, my father sent someone to find me and asked me to go back as soon as possible, but I did not look back. When I got up, I sold all the valuable things on my body and returned to a small satin shop. Those big satin shops were still squeezing me out. I knew that these people were instructed by my father and wanted to show me some color. They monopolized the rich customers, and I specialized in the poor business. After running around in the market, my business finally picked up.
Jiang Xiaolou listened very deeply. In Xie Liancheng's description, he was completely different from the current Duke Xie. She did not expect Xie Liancheng to be so rebellious, she would rather disobey her father and resolutely refuse to go home. The stubbornness revealed in her bones made her feel a little funny while admiring her.
Xie Liancheng seemed to know that he amused her. He smiled slightly and continued: "One day I ran into a horse seller. He has a horse that looks extremely good. I learned from him that this horse is from the north. I bought it from the Qiang people, and he knew from his mouth that someone once used silk and jewellery in exchange for horses and furs at a very cheap price, and made a lot of money. So I also thought about it. After returning home I made up a hundred silks and satin, then bought a horse with a load of goods, and invited the horse sellers to go on the road together. The two of us walked through city after city and suffered a lot along the way, and finally came to the grassland. That is. Only then did I know that there really is a place that is endless. The Qiang people live in the northern barbarian land. Because they are engaged in herding, they often migrate. The most of their livestock are horses. Soon I walked with my guide. A tribe. They have no words but laws. Before entering their tribe, I painted my face with ink, and the horse seller took me to see the owner of the tribe. My business was negotiated."
Jiang Xiaolou was attracted by this story and listened intently.
"One silk can be exchanged for a horse. I brought a hundred silks and a hundred horses in exchange. They took me to the racecourse. There were horses of various colors. The Qiang people wanted me to check it. I started to count, but the horses jumping around were so dazzled that I couldn’t count them, so the Qiang people agreed that I could stay for the night and count them until the dawn of tomorrow morning. They prepared a tent for me, inside There is a bed, food and equipment to make a fire. But that night, when I was asleep, I was startled by the sound of footsteps, and there seemed to be people outside the tent. Then my translation-the horse seller quietly got out of the tent, and the man holding a torch outside The Qiang people came together, and I suddenly felt bad in my heart, guessing that I might have been betrayed. So I acted first, touched the long sword and killed the Qiang people, and wanted to kill the horse seller together. He I begged bitterly, young and vigorous, I killed him. I found the horse-driving whistle from the Qiang people, opened the fence of the horse farm, I blew the whistle, summoned all the horses inside, and took them to you. The city ran away wildly. After running all night, the horses that I had brought out were half scattered, but the remaining half was enough to make money. It was not until this time that I returned to Xie’s house."
After listening to the story, Jiang Xiaolou smiled and said, "What on earth do you want to say, don't you trust others?"
Xie Liancheng turned his head to look at her, and shook his head: "You have your own judgment. You can choose to believe or not, but sometimes your eyes will deceive you, and everything you see is not necessarily Really. Later, I thought about the whole process carefully, only to find that the horse seller did not betray me. Think about it carefully, if he really does not have a plan, colluding with those Qiang people to take my silk and satin. This way gave him countless opportunities to kill me. Why did he succeed in bringing me to Qiang? Even when I was asleep that night, he had the opportunity to start. So I guessed all this later. It’s just because those Qiang people were going to kill people at night and were discovered by him. Because of his unfounded suspicion, a life was ruined in my hands. I will never forget this in my life. It tells me how much I lost trust. Terrible, you will feel extremely lonely and desperate, even helpless, and become extremely terrible."
Xie Liancheng killed someone because of his suspicion. The more important reason was that he couldn't trust anyone in that environment, just like the current Jiang Xiaolou, already walking on the edge of a cliff.
Jiang Xiaolou smiled faintly, deliberately pretending that he didn't understand: "It's always good to be vigilant. If the horse seller really betrays you, and you don't have the slightest guard, now I can't see the old man again."
Everyone has their own ambitions, and it’s useless to persuade them. Xie Liancheng’s goal today has been achieved. He does not want his father to be misunderstood by Jiang Xiaolou, nor does the image of Xie’s family plummet in her heart. He can understand Jiang Xiaolou’s Behavior and respect her choice. However, without such experience, he also has no right to blame. So regretful in his heart, he just smiled: "I will deal with these eel fry later, do you want to go with me?"
Jiang Xiaolou shook his head: "No, I trust you."
Xie Liancheng couldn't help but curled up the corners of his mouth, and then he realized that he seemed to be laughing too much with Jiang Xiaolou. He narrowed his smile and looked at her deeply and said, "Okay, then I will let Huai'an send you back."
Jiang Xiaolou refused, "No, I have other things to do."
Xie Liancheng paused: "Then I will arrange a few guards to protect you. Go anywhere you want."
Jiang Xiaolou certainly wouldn't refuse this kind of just right care, so he took Xiaodie to walk around the market casually. When he reached a jewelry store, Jiang Xiaolou stopped and wandered in.
Entering the door, the shop is small but very clean and refreshing. The counter is filled with jewels of various colors. Ruby like a glow like fire, faint color like washed sapphire, shimmering opal, brilliant gold garnet, exquisite crystal, white and delicate suet jade, full and round pearls, solemn emerald green jade, colorful Of agate. Each of these babies is so beautiful that people can't turn their eyes on.
Fluttershy couldn't turn her eyes for a while, only heard the shopkeeper say: "This lady, the jewelry in our shop is the best on this street, you can look carefully!"
Jiang Xiaolou smiled and said, "Yes, the boss' jewelry is unique."
Xiaodie exclaimed, "Look, miss, that's so beautiful!"
Jiang Xiaolou followed her gaze, only to see a red Jinpa in a separate counter, in which a special piece of amber lying quietly, clear and transparent, orange in color, and a piece of amber wrapped in the middle A bee and a drop of water are lifelike, and they can be intoxicating at a glance.
Seeing that she was paying special attention, the shopkeeper wiped his hands before taking out the amber, shook it slightly, and the drops of water also shook.
"This is Amber Tibetan Bee?" Jiang Xiaolou asked.
"Exactly! Miss really knows jade." The shopkeeper was obviously very satisfied with the elegant, luxuriously dressed young lady. In addition to a maid behind her, there were also several guards who followed her. At first glance, she was rich or expensive. If not, he would not show her such a precious treasure.
"The young lady is called Amber, but we call it Yiyu. It comes from pine resin, and the pine tree also symbolizes longevity. If you buy it back, you don’t need to set fire to it. You only need to touch it a little to release the charming rosin smell, which is calming. The effect of..." The shopkeeper gushed.
Jiang Xiaolou looked away after hearing it for a while. Soon, she found a crystal clear red jade in an inconspicuous corner, but unfortunately there was a black spot on the edge of the jade--her eyes moved slightly, just about to Ask the shopkeeper the price of this jade. Just at this moment, someone nearby said loudly: "I want this piece of amber."
Jiang Xiaolou turned his head, the young man in front of him with handsome eyebrows and a tall nose, with a relaxed smile on his face, looked very elegant.
Qin Si looked at Jiang Xiaolou, not smiling and affectionate: "If I like it, why don't you buy it?" The entourage by his side had already paid, and he took the piece of amber in his hand and personally sent it to Jiang Xiaolou: " If amber is to be matched with beauty, people will emit its brilliance. In my heart, only you can match it."
Jiang Xiaolou understands the temperament of people like Qin Si too: He will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal. Whether it is temperament or talent, he is a man who is eye-catching. Otherwise, Liu Yushi's daughter will fall in love with him at first sight and goodbye. He must be married. However, it is such a person who abandoned his fiancée to marry another person, and sent her out as a cattle, horse or livestock. Such a decent and unrefined person really failed the good looks God gave him.
Jiang Xiaolou didn't even look at him, but pointed to the jade with black spots on the edge and said, "Boss, how much is this jade worth?"
The boss was taken aback, and quickly said: "This one hundred tael."
Jiang Xiaolou smiled and said, "I really wanted to buy this ruby ​​jade, but I took a closer look at the small black spot on the edge. With this spot, it doesn’t matter, the value of the jade will plummet. Originally you could sell one hundred taels, but now you can only sell thirty taels. What a pity, what a pity." Jiang Xiaolou said regretfully.
In fact, this piece of jade has been placed in the store for more than a year, and no one cares about it. The boss has long wanted to sell it at a low price. Seeing Jiang Xiaolou saying this, I was afraid that she would regret it, and said in a hurry: "Then three Twelve taels are sold to you, you can't go back!"
Jiang Xiaolou bends the corners of his lips: "It's hard for a daughter to buy it. Good, no matter how good the amber is, it is not my favorite. I really like this ruby."
There was a hint of surprise on Qin Si's face, and it flashed quickly, leaving only a smile.
Jiang Xiaolou instructed Xiaodie to take out thirty taels of silver and pass it over, and then left without looking back, holding Hongyu.
Qin Si's expression condensed slightly behind her, and soon, a slightly interesting light flashed in his eyes, which was particularly handsome and deep. He silently looked at Jiang Xiaolou's leaving back, and subconsciously followed.
Jiang Xiaolou bought this flawed piece of red jade, and quickly found a jade shop and asked the jade craftsman in the shop to reprocess it. When the jadesmith saw the red jade, he was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Miss, how much did you buy the red jade?"
Fluttershy spoke quickly and immediately replied: "Thirty taels of silver."
The jadesmith shook his head repeatedly: "Miss, you are at a loss! If this red jade has no flaws, it is very valuable, but it happens to have a black spot. Now I am afraid that you won't even be able to sell a dozen silver!"
Jiang Xiaolou raised his face and smiled gently: "You don't have to worry about it, just follow my instructions to carve out the figures."
The jade craftsman looked at Jiang Xiaolou strangely: "What do you want a piece of waste jade to do, even if it is carved out, it is worthless!"
Seeing that he hadn't understood yet, Jiang Xiaolou explained: "Look, fins are carved along this line, and tails are carved along this line. As for this black spot, does it look like a fish's eye?"
The jadesmith took a closer look and couldn't help being completely stunned. Then he was ecstatic: "Yes, it's really similar! Why didn't I expect it?! Okay, let me try!"
Jiang Xiaolou smiled and nodded: "Then thank you, Master, I will come to pick it up in three days."
The jadesmith couldn't hear what Jiang Xiaolou said at this moment. He had a strange idea, so he stared at this piece of red jade and fell into his own fantasies. Jiang Xiaolou didn't say much. He turned and left the jade shop. Xiaodie's stomach screamed twice. Jiang Xiaolou couldn't help but smiled and said, "Are you hungry?"
Xiaodie nodded obediently: "Miss, shall we go home for dinner?"
Jiang Xiaolou glanced at the sky and smiled and said: "It's hard to get it, so don't rush back. You tell the guards to go back and tell them, we will stay outside for dinner." Xiaodie became happy for a while, and looked around. Dining restaurant. Ordinary restaurant ladies are not allowed to go. You must find a restaurant with a refined environment and not easily disturbed. I was looking around, but saw Qin Si coming here, Xiaodie couldn't help but lower his voice: "Miss, that nasty ghost is actually following up again!"
Jiang Xiaolou found out earlier than she did, and only whispered a few words in Xiaodie's ear. Xiaodie was taken aback, and then immediately said: "Miss, don't worry, the slave and maid remembered!"
Qin Si walked briskly, attracting enviable eyes along the way. He stood in front of her, especially gentle and beautiful, with a deep smile: "If you don't dislike it, you can come to the Qin's restaurant for dinner."
It turned out that he had been waiting outside the jade shop, Jiang Xiaolou had a sneer on his face, staring at him.
"Of course, if you are afraid and fearful, then you don't have to." Seeing her so vigilant, his smile was even more intense.
"Since Young Master Qin is kindly invited, the little girl is disrespectful." Jiang Xiaolou smiled calmly, but his tone was as soft as a sigh.
Qin Si's eyes have long been rippling: "If this is the case, then we..."
Seeing this, the guard behind him immediately took a step forward, staring at Qin Si with a stern eye. Qin Si was carrying only one entourage behind him, and the entourage immediately became a little nervous. Jiang Xiaolou waved back his guards, and said lightly: "Master Qin, talk as you speak, or don't get too close. After all, there is a difference between men and women. It would be bad if it causes misunderstandings."
Qin Si squeezed a hand in his sleeve, squeezing it into a blue vein, but his face was very gentle: "I just want to sit quietly with you and say a few words, and I don't mean anything else. In full view, I am again What will happen to you?"
He kept staring at Jiang Xiaolou, his eyes gleaming, and he looked particularly sad. When Jiang Xiaolou saw him behave like this, he curled his lips and smiled lightly: "So, please ask Qin Gongzi to lead the way."
Qin Si and Jiang Xiaolou went to the Qin's restaurant together, and Xiaodie had already said to a Xie's guard at this time: "There is a message, you send it to the Qin Mansion immediately. Only that someone wants to pass the message to the Qin Mansion. No need to say everything else."
The guard gave Xiaodie a suspicious look, and walked away. Xiaodie smiled slightly, and then quietly followed Jiang Xiaolou.
Qin Si arranged a very elegant room with the doors and windows open, obviously to reassure Jiang Xiaolou. Behind them stood two maidservants, one holding a hip flask and the other specializing in serving dishes. The dishes were very rich. After a bite, they would remove one batch and put on another batch. The maid in the elegant room was busy walking in and out like lanterns, and there were many famous dishes on the table.
Qin Si's eyes were like water, and he swept across at her: "These two dishes are the specialties of Qin's restaurant, you can try it. This duck paw is to catch the duck on the red iron plate, and wait until the iron plate smokes. , You can cut off the tender meat from the duck feet. The taste is very delicious. And this is a knife-rolled tenderloin. We use milk to feed the pigs. When the pigs grow up, we will use bamboo slices to draw the back of the live pigs. He pulled the live meat off, and when the meat fell, it was still beating slightly, which was very delicious."
Jiang Xiaolou frowned slightly. Qin's restaurant didn't have these dishes in the past, and now I don't know where to learn these cruel methods, which is really disgusting.
At this time, the maid serving the banquet brought a hot pot to the table, and the fire was very strong. There were dozens of dishes around the hot pot with various seasonings. Then the two maids came over with a small and exquisite iron cage, which was covered with a layer of red silk. The maid took off the red silk, and Jiang Xiaolou saw the monkeys in the cage, his head stuck in the hole, and he looked at them with tears in his eyes.
A chef walked over and showed a sharp knife in his hand. The blade turned very quickly on top of the monkey's head and shaved off all the hair on the Tianling cover, exposing the white flowered scalp. Qin Si smiled and said: "This monkey brain is a new famous dish. The skull is knocked out of the hole and topped with hot oil. The brain is very delicious."
Jiang Xiaolou's expression sank, Qin Si looked in his eyes, and the corners of his lips smiled.
The chef's cold blade began to get close to the monkey head, and the monkey struggled in the cage. The head stuck in the board was twisted desperately, screaming after another. Hearing the sharp and intense hoarse voice, Jiang Xiaolou suddenly put down her chopsticks, her eyes suddenly turned to Qin Si, and her voice was extremely cold: "I don't like to eat these, so I will withdraw immediately!"
Qin Si seemed to have expected it, so he smiled and waved to let people take the monkey away.
Without that heart-piercing scream, the whole elegant room became hollow and extremely quiet. Qin Si didn't speak, and Jiang Xiaolou had no voice. The whole room was so quiet that it made people feel uneasy.
"Now you have to admit that you are Jiang Xiaolou." Qin Si said with a smile.
Jiang Xiaolou closed his eyes abruptly, and Qin Si said indifferently, "Why do you keep refusing to admit it? You have to force me to make a bad move."
Jiang Xiaolou suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes stained with frost, "Are you trying to test me on purpose?"
Qin Si smiled as always, and the romantic circling around the corner of his eyes: "Your biological father is a monkey, so you have never touched this dish of monkey brain, no matter how fresh or delicious it is, because it is a taboo, I Is that correct?"
Although Jiang Xiaolou's eyes are enchanting, but his face is elegant, he smiles when he hears the words, and his eyes are like water quietly looking at him: "Yes, you know Jiang Xiaolou so well, how can you not tell who I am? "
Qin Si finally confessed when she saw her, and there was a glimmer of joy in his heart. He gently moved closer to Jiang Xiaolou: "Xiaolou, you have been blaming me in your heart, I know you hate me very much in your heart. But you must know this year I am also very sad. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I'm very sorry." He said, his voice has become dull, "I heard that you left Houfu, how are you doing now? Do you still hate me that way, If so, I would rather you beat me and scold me... In fact, I often think of you, and I have never forgotten it for a while."
Jiang Xiaolou looked at him with a deep expression: "Thinking of me, do you think I am not miserable enough, or suspect that the Jiang family still has wealth hidden in an unknown place?"
Qin Si was taken aback, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Why do you want to be as bad as I thought."
Jiang Xiaolou saw through the haze in his eyes: "I don't want the person in my impression to become so unbearable, but everything that happened is vivid and unforgettable forever."
Qin Si didn't speak for a long time, his eyes were deeply regretful, and his slanted eyes were filled with emotion: "Xiaolou, you must be punished if you do something wrong. No matter how you punish me, I will never say anything. , But you have to know that I have difficulties in doing all this. As the son of a merchant, who in the court looks down on me, your majesty appreciates my poems, but only treats me as a lowly poet. Waiting for the future I just leave Beijing far away and become a little-known official, not to mention the face of the world, even my parents are separated by thousands of miles. Even so, I never thought of marrying Liu Yan, but later The Liu family is forced by the safety of their parents and family glory and disgrace—"
Jiang Xiaolou looked at him with a deeper sneer in his heart. Look, this is Qin Si, with elegant appearance and noble temperament, and he is the only one in a thousand words and manners. In order to achieve his goal, he will rationalize his behavior, as if he did all this for granted. Yes, you can abandon your fiancée for the sake of the future, and trample on the lives and dignity of others for the sake of superiority. How selfish and shameless such a person is.
Qin Si thought Jiang Xiaolou understood him, and a trace of affection appeared on Yu Bai's face: "I didn't mean to give you to someone else at first. I just hoped that I could marry you and keep you by my side when things pass. It’s just that Liu Yan can’t tolerate your presence. She deliberately promoted your beauty and talents and spread it all the way to the ears of Xiao Guanxue, Hou Ziyi. Xiao Guanxue personally asked me for someone, and I could only cut love."
Obviously he is obsessed with power, but he wants to show his deep affection.
Jiang Xiaolou also defended him in this way at the beginning. She didn't know until she entered the Ziyihou Mansion. The other party didn't know who Jiang Xiaolou was, what she admired for her beauty, what she used to oppress, everything was just Qin. Thinking is just an excuse for climbing upwards, his purpose is only to flatter Xiao Guanxue through Jiang Xiaolou.
This is the treacherous human mind, cunning and complicated, and it is often difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy until the critical moment.
Qin Si, your black heart, I want to pay tribute to the spirit of the elder brother in the sky! A few cold lights flashed in front of Jiang Xiaolou's eyes, and his smile became more gentle: "Master Qin told me this to restore the old relationship?"
