I am fish

Chapter 21

Mr. Liao is the topic they talk about the most in their daily life. In their mouths, he is like a fairy descended from the world.The little ladies fantasized about Mr. Liao's demeanor every day when they had nothing to do, took a branch to draw his facial features in the sand, and even quarreled over whether he had charming peach blossom eyes or evil red phoenix eyes.

I have talked too much about Mr. Liao, and I think he is too mysterious, maybe he is a relative of the royal family, otherwise, no one knows which family he comes from, and no one even knows his real name—— Such a person is just thinking about it in his heart and dreaming, and he can't seriously count on it.As a result, the daily topic began to shift to a more practical direction, and Tao Jun's major noble families became the latest hot topic among girls.Which family has more Beijing officials and children, whose business can reach all corners of the country; whose mistress is gentle and whose mistress can't tolerate sand; what kind of tempers do their sons and daughters have, what kind of personal servants they like, and what kind of personal servants do they like? People have preferences... If you talk seriously, you can chat for three days and three nights without drinking saliva.

It was only later that Zhen Wenjun found out that all these unorthodox gossips were obtained from the servants who delivered the goods.Sometimes she watched from the sidelines and sighed in her heart that these little people seemed to have mastered the way of survival earlier than her, no matter which yard they fell into in the future, they would not be easy to save.

After staying like this for nearly half a month, Zhen Wenjun gained half a circle of weight from eating and drinking all day long.This morning when the ox cart entered the yard, she stood in the distance and looked over, and saw that the girls and the servants in the yard had all gone to help.

That person is also here today, and finally he has waited.

An old woman with brown spots on her face and plain clothes moved her face out of the car, wiped off the sweat, and rolled the back of her clenched hands several times on the back of her waist to relieve her back pain. When she was about to move again, someone patted her on the shoulder .The old woman looked back, and Zhen Wenjun standing behind her looked around. She was about to speak when Zhen Wenjun pulled her behind the pillars in the corridor.

"Who is Mr. Liao?" Zhen Wenjun asked the old woman thoughtlessly, "Could it be that Mr. Liao is Wei Zizhuo?"

The bewildered expression of the old woman quickly became calm and sharp, and after a sneer that didn't match the wrinkles on her face, a sharp light shot out from her eyes, and her calm expression confirmed Zhen Wenjun's guess.

"How did you find me?" asked the old woman.

It seems that Ajiao is quite confident in his disguise technique, even being exposed for the first time.

"My disguise technique is not inferior to that of Jiang Daochang. This time, the appearance of disguise is ordinary and indifferent, which is the appearance of all living beings. Even if I have a conscious memory, I may not be able to remember it quickly. Even the shape of my body has changed, and it is impossible to recognize it. The most important thing is that the matter of 'debunking' needs the most original motivation, the status of the old woman is mediocre, there is nothing worthy of doubt, why do you doubt me?"

Zhen Wenjun always suppresses the desire to expose the whole world, and he should restrain himself when he is in a strange place, not to mention that Wei Zizhuo doesn't know the distance, maybe he will meet him soon.But since Ah Jiao asked at this moment, she has nothing to hide:

"The plan to get close to Wei Zizhuo has already started, and you deliberately didn't tell me the details of the plan in order to let me approach him more naturally. Jiang Daochang's warning to me is not so much 'submissive' as 'it will be a matter of course'. You leave me alone After counting Yaren, we crossed several counties to come here, so that if Wei Zizhuo became suspicious, he could trace his origin and trace it. At a glance, he could see that it was not a deliberate arrangement but a coincidence. As for how you manipulate the Yaren business to guide me Coming to Taojun City, I don’t know this yet, but it’s not very important. The important thing is that no matter how much you let nature take its course, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the mission, I won’t rely on Wei Zizhuo to bite you back. You definitely need someone to monitor you all the way Me. Jiang Dao often sent me out and you never showed up in the hands of Wang Yaren. Why didn't you come? I guess you have to rush to the important place where the next mission will take place in advance, and prepare in advance to complete the next surveillance. Of course, Surveillance is just one of them. The most important thing is to arrange and help me get close to Wei Zizhuo smoothly. Even if I can’t reach the sky in one step, it’s good to get into his line of sight first. So after arriving in Taojun City and settling down these days, you should also show up. Since you want to Surveillance and assistance must be the most convenient around me. After all, you are a Qingliu party. Maybe it is not easy to reveal your true appearance, and disguise is the easiest way. Even the most defiant disguise technique is difficult to pretend to be a young person. If you change Gender is more difficult and easier to attract attention, so I carefully observed the qualified people around me, and quickly found you."

"Even so, how did you find my flaws? There can be no flaws in my face."

"Yes, all the camouflage of your face is very natural and flawless, even the body shape is perfectly camouflaged."

"so?!"

"So I don't recognize it by face or body shape."

"Could it be manners?"

"Although you and I have been facing each other for more than a year, you still pretend to be very good. You and Jiang Daochang are both masters of disguise, even if you behave, there is nothing unusual. There is just one thing that you may not have thought of."

"where?"

"ear."

When she pointed it out, Ah Jiao subconsciously touched his ears.

"People's ears don't change after birth, and they have different shapes. Although you have paid attention to the aging color of your ears, you haven't completely changed its outline. I recognize you from your ears."

Zhen Wenjun spoke very fast, and his thoughts were clear and his answers were fluent. Almost all guesses were almost the same as the facts.What surprised Ajiao even more was that her observation ability became more and more outstanding.The shape of the ears is usually the same, and her ears are not strange, they just look like ordinary people, but Zhen Wenjun can see everything without preparation in advance.

Ajiao secretly looked at this childish face, and understood that this person is a double-edged sword. If he uses it properly, he may really be able to pierce the confidants of the Wei family with a single sword, but if he is backlashed, it is very likely that it will be a catastrophe.

"You haven't told me that Mr. Liao is Wei Zizhuo?" Zhen Wenjun saw that there was a girl looking for her beside the ox cart, and immediately urged Ajiao to let her speak clearly.

"According to the current clues, it is very possible." Now that it was exposed, Ajiao no longer made any cover-ups, "Although Wei Zizhuo's whereabouts are uncertain all the year round, after all, the Wei family clan is entrenched in Pingcang, and the eldest grandson of the most powerful clan in Dongchun The family has a close relationship, and there are many contacts between the two families. Taojun City is the junction of the two counties. The people are fat and light, and the people are fat and light. Strange thing. My friend often has eyes and ears here to find out about Wei Zizhuo's whereabouts. I found a feather fan in Lesiyuan two months ago."

"The feather fan belongs to Wei Zizhuo?"

"This fan does not have any identification pendant to prove that it belongs to Wei Zizhuo, but its wooden handle is Longyan wood. There is only one soil in the entire Dayu that can breed its unique fragrance, and that is the one in Pingcang County. Looking at Longshan."

Zhen Wenjun remembered that Grandma once said that Wanglong Mountain was named because it is adjacent to the capital, and it is the highest mountain in Pingcang.The rare and exotic animals on the mountain are the favorite hunting grounds of the emperors of all generations.

"Since it is a precious wood in Pingcang County, it is more likely that the owner of this fan is from Pingcang. According to the personal maid of Mrs. Zhen Fu in Lesiyuan, this thing was dropped by Mr. Liao." Ajiao continued. , "We followed Mr. Liao for a long time..."

Zhen Wenjun was stunned for a moment: "You have already found Mr. Liao? Can you even follow him?"

"Yes, it seems that you and I have the same idea. This Mr. Liao may not be the watertight Wei Zizhuo, but there must be something to say about the feather fan. Even if he is not Wei Zizhuo, he should have some connection with Wei Zizhuo."

Zhen Wenjun said: "What is the age of Mr. Liao, and is he using a pseudonym?"

"I don't know anything about this, and I'm still trying to find out. Wei Zizhuo is a person who can't be touched in the thick fog, but Mr. Liao is already in front of him, and his weakness is obvious. No matter whether Mr. Liao is Wei Zizhuo himself, he needs a spy. Sneak into his side and check carefully."

Speaking of this, Zhen Wenjun understood.

"So you've come all this way and your target has always been the lustful Mr. Liao? You want me to..." Recalling the charms that Ajiao forced her to learn, I really don't know if I should praise her for her vision and being able to dispatch her so quickly. Useful, "This place is not far from Le Siyuan. Could it be that Jiang Daochang has already poisoned and killed the servant girl next to Mr. Liao, so that Mr. Liao, who is short of people, can come here to choose the maid he likes?"

"If this is really the arrangement, it is too simple and deliberate. There is no need to tell you now, and you will know soon." Ajiao coughed, put on his old clothes again, and staggered back to the ox cart.

Sure enough, two days later, the servants brought hot water and new clothes, and asked them to wash up, change into clothes and gather in the courtyard.

Zhen Wenjun knew that most of the rich and powerful families would like to buy some young and smart girls to prepare for them. They were obedient and easy to discipline, so they would be suitable as house slaves or housemaids in the future.And at my age, it is more likely to provoke those businesses in Huajie Liushi. Thinking of this level, Zhen Wenjun suddenly understood something, and his face froze suddenly.

The servants who came to ask them saw Zhen Wenjun standing still, and stepped forward to push him. Zhen Wenjun came to his senses and followed the servant's guidance to the front yard.When I arrived at the front yard, I saw several families dressed in beautiful brocades coming to choose their servants. The Yaman was asking them about their requirements one by one and helping to choose suitable servants.

These girls left here are all good-looking, hoping to sell them for a good price.At this time, many well-behaved and clever people have been picked away, and Zhen Wenjun was the last buyer left when he was queued.The buyer was a man in his late thirties, with a shiny dark complexion, two deep lines like knife-cut lines between his eyebrows, and the tip of his nose was constantly sweating.It can be seen that this person is on the go all the year round, and has a short temper.He walked around in front of the girls, finally stopped, looked at Zhen Wenjun and said:

"You, sing a song and listen to it."

Zhen Wenjun shook his head: "No."

"No?" The man didn't seem to expect to get such an answer. He frowned, looked around the remaining girls, and asked, "What about you? Don't you? Don't even know the hometown tunes?!"

The girls were frightened by his ferocious appearance, and they huddled together and hid behind Zhen Wenjun.The tooth man hurried up to apologize, saying that this little lady is shy, but she is usually quite clever.

The man looked at Zhen Wenjun's face again, and pinched her waist and buttocks.Zhen Wenjun was so angry that he could only bear it.

He said to the lady who was traveling with him: "This big guy looks nice and has a good body, but he just looks dumbfounded and ignorant. And the bones are hardened, so I'm afraid it's hard to train. A few small ones are fine, after all, the color is still the same. A little short. What do you think?"

The lady smiled and said: "Then what is there, and there are people who I, Du Sanniang, can't train? Take them all back. Chunmei and Shiyiniang are all redeemed by others. Those in our team Half of the people are empty at once. The small ones seem to have a reasonable price, so I will train you when you get back, so you don’t have to worry about it.”

Zhen Wenjun and the rest of the girls were bought by the man and Du Sanniang, and they were packed and brought back.

It wasn't until they followed them back to their residence near the outskirts of the city that they realized that this was a traveling theater troupe.

The man is the team leader, and everyone calls him Uncle Li, and the lady is her best friend, who is in charge of teaching skills.The girls who were bought were a little discouraged, thinking that if they joined the theater troupe, they would definitely not have a future as a wealthy family, and they would have a hard life in the future, which is far less comfortable and beautiful than being bought as a maidservant.

Until a few girls in the troupe came out of the back room, their eyes were almost blinded by their silk, satin, gold and silver jewelry, the expressions of these girls immediately changed, and the yearning was written on their faces without any concealment.

Zhen Wenjun watched with cold eyes.

She knew that the silk and headgear all over her body were not cheap.In the past, Xie's family invited a whole theater troupe to a banquet for only 20 taels of silver, and that was the best theater troupe in Suichuan. How much could a few opera troupe who went around the rivers and lakes earn?The jewelry box next to him is very expensive, so there must be some informal ways of making money.

Du Sanniang saw that the girls who had just arrived looked at the girls with envy, so she sat aside and patted their thighs leisurely, and asked them if they also wanted to wear gold ribbons one day, and the girls nodded in unison.

"As long as you are obedient and obedient and work hard, in the future our team will make ten cents and you will earn one cent." Seeing that Zhen Wenjun was still unmoved, he said to her specifically, "Being older is also beneficial, hold your breath and see you In the past, most of them came from wealthy families. But you should know the rules here. My money, Du Sanniang, is never in vain. Since you have entered my door, you will not treat you badly from now on, at least wear gold and silver It's not a problem. But if you dare to be lazy and play tricks, I have plenty of ways to let you know how powerful it is."

The girls were too frightened to say anything when they saw her looking like she was going to eat people. Zhen Wenjun knew that Du Sanniang was trying to give them a bad start, so that they could be obedient and better control in the future.

So is getting into the troupe part of the plan now?Is it what Ajiao said "you will know soon"?If entering the theater troupe is an inevitable step, how can she be guaranteed to be selected?Or is this Du Sanniang also a pawn of Qingliu's party?

Thinking of this, Zhen Wenjun took a sneak peek at Du Sanniang, who was a half-aged woman with heavy make-up, and felt that he was suspicious of everyone now.Xie Taihang and Mr. Yunmeng made her shudder, and Jiang Daochang's play was so good that Zhen Wenjun wondered if everyone around him was wearing a disguised coat, tearing off this layer of skin, all holding sharp knives and poking eyes Not to mention cutting off the nose.

And she is the piece of meat on the chopping board, either cut by Qingliu or Wei Zizhuo.
