[Comprehensive] A small goal

After returning to the capital, Li Hongxiu's life suddenly became much more boring.

When she was in Youzhou, she had to do a lot of things every day. She took care of the accounts alone, counted the goods by herself, business hours, and even all kinds of trivial matters in each store. She was the busiest. Sometimes I can't keep my feet on the ground all day long, and I don't even care about eating and drinking.But now that she's back in the capital, she doesn't have to worry about these things.

People who are used to being busy don't like to be idle, especially Li Hongxiu who knows that when she is idle, she can't help but think about other things, so after two days of entanglement, she took the initiative to go to the Shenhou Mansion to ask Lin Shiyin for work .

However, Lin Shiyin seldom manages things recently, so she left them all to Lin Xian'er.

"Well, you go and ask Xian'er if there is anything you can't do." She said.

"...Okay, okay." Li Hongxiu lowered his head in frustration.

To be honest, she didn't think that Lin Xian'er would divide the affairs in her hands to herself at all. With her level of loyalty to Lin Shiyin, she should wish she could do everything by herself.

But in the end she asked without hope.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, but Lin Xian'er didn't love to ridicule her as much as before. After hearing her intentions, she actually thought about it carefully, and finally said to her: "Go to Jinliang Street for me." Check out the warehouse."

The moment Li Hongxiu heard this place name, she really suspected that she did it on purpose.

It is impossible for her not to know where Jinliang Street is.

That's the one closest to Fengyu Building among all the stores under Lin Shiyin's name.

"Forget it if you don't want to." Seeing that she didn't speak, Lin Xian'er hurriedly said, "I'll go by myself later."

"...No." Li Hongxiu could probably guess what she meant, and finally agreed, "Are you going to finish the game today?"

"That's not necessary, it doesn't matter if you go tomorrow." Lin Xian'er said.

"Then tomorrow." Li Hongxiu said calmly.

It's just a little closer to the Fengyu Tower, so what's the point?

Li Hongxiu felt that after leaving for such a long time, she should have improved a bit when she came back. Besides, that man was good friends with her brother-in-law and her elder sister Yin, and it was impossible for her to avoid him for the rest of her life.

But no matter how clearly she thought about it, when she thought of that person, she still felt down uncontrollably.

During the days when she left the capital, she seldom thought about him because she was busy, or she didn't dare to think about him, for fear that if she thought about it a few times, she would be unable to bear it and wanted to go back.

She still remembered the way he looked at her when she said she was going to leave, so calm that there was no surprise.

Finally, he said helplessly, yes.

Probably he had seen through all her thoughts, so he let her go without asking why.

Li Hongxiu recovered from the memory and sighed.

She is now living with Ji Bingyan and A Fei at Chu Liuxiang's side. The excitement is lively, but it is also troublesome.

Because these people know her very well and are very worried about her, especially Chu Liuxiang. Seeing her come back with Ji Bingyan this time, they have stopped talking to her several times.

It can make someone like Chu Liuxiang hesitate to talk, one can imagine what the topic is.

Li Hongxiu has never been able to tell lies since she was a child, let alone such things as being okay or not liking, she herself would not believe it.

So she could only pretend that she didn't see their concerned eyes.

After going back to have dinner that night, she went back to her room early to sleep.However, after lying down, he tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He didn't fall asleep until it was almost dawn.

She also slept very restlessly, and in just over an hour, all kinds of fragments of the past flickered before her eyes.

The last scene is when she left Fengyu Building, Director Yang sent her out, touched her head, and said thank her.

She bit her lip and stood at the door, and suddenly cried again.

When she woke up, she seemed to hear someone's sigh, softer than the snow.

It was still early, so she didn't get up in a hurry, but pulled the quilt over her head and waited for herself to recover from the broken pieces.

Until she was about to go out, she was still thinking that she was so worthless and hopeless.

"Where are you going?" He asked Ji Bingyan when he met Ji Bingyan at the door.

"Xian'er asked me to help her with the warehouse." She answered truthfully.

"Which warehouse is it?" Ji Bingyan asked casually.

This question made Li Hongxiu silent for a while, and after a while, he said, "That's on Jinliang Street."

Ji Bingyan: "..."

He thought about going, but he was still not at ease, and pulled his foster brother beside him: "You go with her, remember to take care of her, and don't let her go to other places."

Ah Fei was puzzled: "Anywhere else?"

Ji Bingyan sneered, and said: "Anyway, you remember to come back when the disk is over."

Li Hongxiu felt that he was exaggerating a bit, but before he could say anything, Ji Bingyan gave him a glare and fell silent.

"Come back soon," he said.

"... Oh." Li Hongxiu responded softly.

Stockrooming is a very boring job. For an experienced person like Li Hongxiu, every time he does this kind of work, he can't help feeling irritable.

In contrast, A Fei who was temporarily forced by Ji Bingyan was much more patient than her.

So in the end, he did more.

"It's almost noon, why not let it go for a while." She suggested, "Let's continue after eating."

Ah Fei paused, raised his eyes to look at her, and there was still a smile in those eyes: "What do you eat?"

Li Hongxiu thought for a while, and said: "There is a tavern near here that is very famous for its roast goose."

In fact, she has never eaten the roast goose she mentioned, but she heard them talk about it several times when she was in Fengfenglou, but she never had the opportunity to try it in person, but she did not expect to have it now.

A Fei has never been picky about what he eats, after all, he can even find the mutton soup she made delicious, so he nodded without much hesitation.

In the end, the two went to the tavern on Jinliang Street together.

After all, Li Hongxiu stayed in the capital for a while, so he is better than Ah Fei in recognizing the way.

However, what she didn't expect was that as soon as the two of them entered, she saw a few familiar figures in the lively lobby, and they weren't the same people who had mentioned this delicious roast goose to her at that time.

Noticing that her footsteps had stopped, Ah Fei tilted his head in confusion: "What's wrong?"

She hurriedly looked away, chose the corner table to sit down, and said, "It's nothing."

In all fairness, the location she chose was indeed enough in the corner and remote enough, but she forgot that both she and A Fei had good looks that would not be ignored by the crowd no matter where they were thrown. In fact, from the moment the two of them stepped into the tavern From the door, it has already attracted half of the light of the entire lobby.

After the meal, Li Hongxiu hardly ate anything, and even only tasted the roast goose. Fortunately, A Fei never liked to waste, so he finally took care of everything they ordered.

But after eating, after eating, Ah Fei couldn't help but feel very worried when he saw her ecstasy: "Who did you see?"

Li Hongxiu was taken aback by his straightforward question, and shook his head after a while and said: "It's nothing, the two people who have dealt with before are not familiar."

Even if A Fei grew up in the mountains and didn't know the world, he could still hear that something was wrong.

If it's someone she doesn't know well, why should she be so out of her mind?

But she didn't want to talk, so he didn't ask further.

But after returning to Chu Liuxiang's place that night, his righteous brother came to him on his own initiative.

"The girl didn't go anywhere else today?" Ji Bingyan asked.

"Does the tavern count?" Ah Fei scratched his face and asked.

"Tavern?" Ji Bingyan thought for a while, "Is she still drinking?"

"No." Ah Fei explained, "I just went to eat something."

When Ji Bingyan heard this, she relaxed a little, nodded and said: "That's good."

Ah Fei thought for a while, and added: "But it seems that I met her old acquaintance."

The word "old knowledge" made Ji Bingyan's heart hang up again after letting go: "What old knowledge?"

In fact, Ah Fei didn't know this question, after all, Li Hongxiu didn't make it clear at all, so in the end he could only describe the conversation at that time to his brother-in-law, and asked: "So where is the other place?"

"...a place she stayed in before." Ji Bingyan also had a terrible headache, "Chu Liuxiang and I don't really want her to see that person who makes her sad again."

But this kind of thing can't be explained clearly to a 15-year-old boy.

Even if Ji Bingyan had a headache, she wouldn't go to the doctor in such a hurry to ask him for advice.

It's just that Ji Bingyan didn't expect that A Fei would listen to his vague words; he never thought that Li Hongxiu didn't see Su Mengzhen this time, but there will be an inevitable meeting with him next time!

...Lin Shiyin and Leng Xue are going to hold a formal wedding.

When Ji Bingyan received the invitation, she was speechless, and she and Chu Liuxiang looked at each other for a moment, but they couldn't hold back their sighs.

Lin Shiyin married so hastily at the beginning because Fang Yingkan asked the emperor to give her a marriage, so it should be a supplementary wedding.Ji Bingyan can fully imagine how grand this make-up wedding will be, and she can also predict that Su Mengzhen, as an ally of the Shenhou Mansion, will definitely be invited.

Both he and Chu Liuxiang felt that this matter was really difficult, but Li Shishi couldn't understand their mentality of "worrying about their daughter", and said: "Based on the relationship between Shiyin and you people, I can't avoid it for a lifetime. You underestimate Hongxiu."

Chu Liuxiang: "...Hongxiu is different from you."

Li Shishi laughed as soon as he heard it, and this person took the opportunity to dislike her, how much resentment there is.

However, it turned out that she, who is also a woman, knows women better. After learning the news, Li Hongxiu was not as depressed as the two men were worried about. On the contrary, she was very happy for Lin Shiyin.

Seeing her like this, both of them felt relieved.

The only one who noticed the uneasiness in her joy was Ah Fei.

In fact, he couldn't explain why, but every time he saw her overly bright smile, he instinctively felt that something was wrong, it shouldn't be like this.

This feeling lasted until half a month later when Lin Shiyin and Leng Xue's wedding was held.

The capital city was extremely lively that day, and the four famous arresters of Yu Feng went to Li Yuan to welcome their relatives together. After the front sedan chair was carried all the way into the Shenhou Mansion, Li Yuan's dowry hadn't all gone out yet. Almost all maidens.

This kind of financial resources is really something that people can only look up to, not even envy.

After the fun was over, there were not many guests at the Shenhou Mansion's banquet, except for those colleagues who couldn't be avoided in Zhuge Shenhou's officialdom, they were the only friends.

However, in front of their identities, the number is obviously not important at all.

Master of the Divine Sword Hall, Xiao Li Feidao, Bandit Commander, whoever can be said will shock the world.

Li Hongxiu and Lin Xian'er took on the tasks of entertaining guests and recording the gift list together, and ran back and forth in Shenhou's mansion many times.

When the people from Fengyu Building came, Lin Xian'er was guarding the door, but Li Hongxiu just missed her, and Lin Xian'er didn't tell her specifically.

However, coincidences can be avoided for a while, but they cannot be avoided for a lifetime.

Su Mengzhen knew from Yang Wuxie that she followed Ji Bingyan back to the capital, it was embarrassing, she planned to come here to say congratulations and then leave.As a result, after two glasses of wine, she and Lin Xian'er had just stood up to say goodbye when she and Lin Xian'er finished welcoming the guests and came back.

This can be described as a head-on collision.

Everyone in the room is still buzzing.

The sound of laughter and cups of wine was endless, and under the flickering lights, Li Hongxiu felt that there was nothing left in front of him, only the figure who had just stood up.

"Hey..." Lin Xian'er held her hand worriedly.

"I'm fine." She came back to her senses, turned her head and stopped looking, walked briskly to the seat reserved for her beside Li Shishi and Chu Liuxiang.

Su Mengzhen had already said goodbye before she came in, but at this moment she only paused for a moment, and saw that she avoided his eyes, and after a little thought, she just handed over her hands and left.

It's just that her position happened to be near the door, and if he wanted to leave, he couldn't avoid her no matter what.

When he passed the red corner of his clothes, he heard a very low voice behind him: "Don't look."

Su Mengzhen had a good memory and recognized the boy with the sword sitting next to her.

That sentence made him stop unconsciously, but he didn't look back.
