Miss Difficult to Marry

These few days are the Xiaoyang weather at the end of autumn and early winter. Although it is a bit cold, there is no wind or rain, and the sky is bright. Compared with the rainy and cloudy days before, this weather is already very pleasant.

Time flies, counting the time, Chen Qingyu has been here for more than a month.

This morning, Cui Zhu brought in hot water, "Master Rong, breakfast is ready, you can wash it first."

This Green Bamboo has been serving in the house for a while, and she does things steadily and meticulously. Ever since Chen Qingyun told her some rules, she always obeyed them, like waking up in the morning. If Chen Qingyun didn't call her, she would never come in rashly. inside.

Chen Qingyu washed his hands and face in the basin, then sat down to eat slowly, Cuizhu tidied up the bed curtains, came over and opened the window.

Unexpectedly, only halfway through breakfast, Feng Laosi came in poking around, "Master."

Chen Qingyun asked: "What's the matter?"

Fourth Feng took out a post from his pocket and said, "The fifth young master of the Ge family in the west of Chengxi set up a table of wine in Fengxi Tower today, and said that I would like to invite you to go there at noon no matter what."

The post was written in black and red on a red background. On the top, Yin Qinqin wrote a polite speech, and on the bottom, the fifth young master of Ge's family in Chengxi.

Having been here for so long, Chen Qingyu has also met many people on the scene. The Qin family is rich and powerful, and has a lot of business. Those who are slightly related, want to curry favor whenever they have the opportunity.This Ge Wushao's family has opened a few green cloth shops, which are not considered big business, probably not enough to win over Master Qin, so he always comes here to curry favor with Chen Qingyu when he has nothing to do.

"Didn't you just go to Ge's house yesterday? Why did you come to invite me again today?" Chen Qingyu refused straight away.

If you curry favor with the Qin family, go curry favor with the Qin family, and let me suffer along with it.Chen Qingyun thought a little indignantly that he couldn't even push him away if he wanted to drink again after going there.

Feng Laosi: "Look, this person is here, it's not good if he doesn't go."

"I don't owe him anything, so there's nothing wrong with it. Come early in the morning, regardless of whether he wants to or not. Go and tell those people that I'm not free today."

Feng Lao Si persuaded: "This... the person who came here said that yesterday's invitation to drink at home is not counted, and today it is necessary to set up a few tables in the restaurant. Look, people's posts are here, you should give them some Save face, if someone invites you, just go, anyway, three meals a day, no matter where you eat, and you don’t have to pay for it yourself.”

Just as Chen Qingyu was about to speak, she suddenly remembered that Feng Laosi had brought in all these messy invitation posts.

"Fourth uncle, you have made a lot of money during this time."

Feng Laosi smiled coyly, and said, "What are you talking about, what do you mean you have gained a lot of benefits? I'm afraid that you will get bored. It's okay to go out for a walk. It's not a hindrance to go out to eat, drink and visit guests."

Chen Qingyun said: "Okay, fourth uncle, don't hide this matter. It's just that if you can agree, you should agree, and if you shouldn't, don't promise people indiscriminately, and don't cause any trouble at that time."

Although this Feng Laosi is serving in this yard, he doesn't know what to do specifically. Anyway, he is idle anyway. Those people who want to curry favor with her will naturally not neglect Feng Laosi who is following her.

Feng Lao Si smiled and said: "Yes, I have a sense of propriety. I didn't do anything else, just posting posts and running errands to earn a few feet of money."

Chen Qingyu had no choice, "You should do less of this in the future, I'm not born with a huge amount of money, if I get drunk sometime..."

She stopped talking at this point, the green bamboo is still in the house.

"I know." Feng Laosi understood, "I know it."

At si o'clock in the morning, the city of Yunzhou began to be lively, probably because it was approaching the end of the year, there were a lot more people in the market these days, and some people from the surrounding villages and villages took up the burden and walked the streets and alleys to sell with.

It was still early, when Chen Qingyu passed by the south bank of the Cuihe River, he saw several large boats parked on the bank.

Old Feng's eyes were sharp, and he saw several acquaintances on a large boat at a glance, "Hey, Qingyu, come and take a look, isn't that Miss Qin's family? That, that, the one standing at the stern."

Chen Qingyu took a closer look, and it was really true.

Qin Yuzhen was wearing plain clothes today, with a graceful and slender waist, standing slim and graceful on the stern of the boat.At the bow of the boat were several attendants of the Qin family, and that silly maid Hui'er was also there.

What's so strange about this, Chen Qingyu looked away and said: "This boat is not bad. It should be five or six feet long. You see, there are two masts at the front and back, and there are big sails on them. The water of the Cui River and the city The outside is connected by water, so if you travel by car, if there is wind, no matter where you go, it will be very fast..."

Feng Laosi and her couldn't talk to her at all. People said this and she said that.

"Hey, Qingyu, tell me, where is Miss Qin going by boat? Shall we go and say hello?"

Chen Qingyun heard from Cui Zhu yesterday that her young lady was going to burn incense at the Niangniang Temple outside the city today to fulfill her vows.But she was too lazy to explain to Feng Laosi. "We all live in the same mansion, why do we say hello when we go out, she goes to hers, we go to ours, I haven't finished listening to "The General of the Yang Family" yesterday, and I have to go to a restaurant for an appointment at noon, We'd better go early to be serious."

Feng Laosi oh-oh twice, had no choice but to follow Chen Qingyu and walk away.

After listening to books and drinking tea, I went to Fengxi Restaurant at a quarter of noon.As soon as Chen Qingyu arrived, a few people who were waiting downstairs came up to meet him, "Master Rong, you are finally here, our Fifth Young Master is waiting for you upstairs."

Chen Qingyu was polite, flicked his sleeves and went upstairs.

The upstairs is exquisite and spacious. When the fifth young master of the Ge family saw her, he stood up with a smile all over his face, "Master Rong, you can count yourself here. Come on, please sit down, please sit up. If you don't come again, I will go there in person." Please."

Chen Qingyun smiled and said, "Young Master Ge is too polite, how can I be embarrassed."

Because the Ge family's business is not too big, they have no business relationship with the Qin family, but this Young Master Ge can talk and has a thick skin. Every time he sees Chen Qingyu, he has to catch up with him. matured.

"They're all my brothers, why are you talking about this? Today's delicious food and wine, we won't go home until we're drunk."

Hehe, I just met a few times, and they all started to call each other brothers. This Ge guy is too shameless.Chen Qingyun smiled without saying a word. There were a few people present who had met before, and they sat down after being courteous.

Today's food and drink is very rich, the host is thoughtful, and the accompanying guests are also attentive, the table is full of people drinking and eating, lively and lively.After drinking for two rounds, a few actors came to sing music to add to the fun, and another waiter came up to add wine and food. The guests and hosts had a good time, and the meal lasted until the end of the day.

After the banquet was over, the young master of the Ge family came out to see off the guests again, and told Chen Qingyun a lot about what he had and what he didn't have. When Chen Qingyun and Feng Laosi returned to Qin's mansion, it was already midnight.

At this time in the past, there should be many servants sitting idle by the lion at the gate of the Qin Mansion. Those people often gather here to watch the gate and chat. If there is nothing else, they will stay until the lights are on at night.But today, for some reason, except for a young man in charge of the gate, even the guards in front of the gate tower were gone.

When Chen Qingyun went all the way back to the south courtyard, several maidservants in the courtyard were talking together in the courtyard, and when they saw her, they rushed over to salute: "Master Rong, you are back."

Chen Qingyu nodded, and just about to go up the steps, he turned around and asked, "What's going on outside? Why are there not many people?"

A servant girl came over and said, "Miss went out of the city today and didn't come back. Steward He is worried. He has already called many people out to inquire."

Chen Qingyu looked up at the sky, "It's still early, maybe it was delayed on the road."

The servant girl replied: "In the past, when the young lady went out, she would usually come back at noon, but today I don't know what happened, and she didn't come back even at this time.

Chen Qingyun thought for a while, and it was a bright day, so it seemed like there was something big going on.

"Where did the green bamboo go?" Chen Qingyin smelled of alcohol all over, "Tell her to find some clothes, I'll take a bath first."

The servant girls agreed, the one who carried the water went to carry the water, and the one who cleaned up the house went to clean up the house.

As soon as Chen Qingyu came out of the shower, she saw a few maids running in in a panic. When one of the maids saw her, she quickly pointed to the outside and said, "Rong, Master Rong, it's terrible, Miss... Miss was tied up and taken away." gone."

"what!"

Chen Qingyu was startled, "How come? Did you hear it wrong?"

"It's absolutely true, the master is back too, Young Master Rong, go and have a look, all..."

Before Chen Qingyu could finish speaking, she stepped out in a few steps.This matter is no small matter, at this time the whole Qin Mansion has become a mess from top to bottom.

As soon as Chen Qingyu walked out of the courtyard, she heard Nanny An's heart-piercing cry: "These people who kill thousands of swords have no hatred or grievance, and we haven't offended you..."

Chen Qingyun hurried over, only to see Nanny An slumped on the ground, crying and fussing, and a few maidservants beside her, persuading and pulling, "Mommy, it's cold on the ground, you should get up first."

Nanny An shook her head and refused, and when she saw Chen Qingyun approaching, she burst into tears: "Master Rong, how good this is, Yuzhen doesn't know what's going on now, pity me for worrying about half my life... ...If something happens to her, I won't be able to close my eyes even if I die!"

"Mommy, get up first. Let's think of a way to do this. Those people only want money, and Miss Qin will be fine." Chen Qingyun comforted her with kind words.

"Master Rong, you have to think about it. If Yuzhen doesn't come back for a day, I will suffer a day. Those who have no conscience, why did they want to tie her up? She is a lady in the boudoir, how can she stand being frightened? Ouch, my wife, you have a spirit in the sky, so please bless Yuzhen..."

Chen Qingyun ordered the servant girl: "Help Mammy up first." After speaking, she persuaded her a few more words, and then hurried to the front hall.

Feng Laosi probably also heard the news, and was rushing this way at this time, Chen Qingyun saw him from a distance, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture while walking, Feng Laosi stopped when he saw this.

There were already quite a few people standing in the hall, and Master Qin was sitting on a goose chair at the top right now, staring at the kneeling people on the ground with a dark old face.

Qin Tian Wang was also on the side, and the man underneath was hurt all over his face, and he was talking: "...Those people first lay down in the grass, because they often go to that small road, so they were unprepared for a while. As soon as we turned the corner, they rushed out with their knives up. There were dozens of people up and down the mountain, and they would kill anyone they saw. We, we protected the lady's sedan chair for a while, and when we saw that there was no momentum, we wanted to retreat, but However, there were so many of them, and they all came fiercely. We didn't even have a way out. After holding on for a while, we couldn't stop them. The sedan chairs are gone, Miss, just..."

He Yi kicked it up, "It's useless, you are all very brave at ordinary times! Why do you become shy bastards when you see a bandit? Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while, so many people followed, even the young lady! I can't even protect him, and I still have the face to cry here, someone, come and drag him down for me."

The man was covered in blood, and he couldn't even get up when he crawled on the ground after being kicked.

Chen Qingyu looked away, Master Qin moved his lips when he saw her, and took out a golden bracelet, "This is worn by Zhen Er. They tied Zhen Er and asked me to redeem it with 5 taels of silver tomorrow." people."

"I will not let these beasts go."

Chen Qingyun said: "Uncle Shi, let's relax first, they are robbers only for money, and if they don't see money, they will definitely not hurt Miss Qin."

Master Qin's eyes froze: "Hurting Zhen'er? Let's try it. If Zhen'er loses a hair, I will make them all die without a place to die! Tianwang, go, you go and invite Master Zhao from the government office to come over." .”

He Yi hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Master, absolutely not, now that Miss is in their hands, we'd better not act rashly, as long as Miss comes back well, it won't be too late for us to make plans for the future."

Qin Tianwang also persuaded: "Uncle, since those robbers were able to set up an ambush on the road, they must have come prepared. Since they want money, let's give it. Those villains can do anything. If they are alarmed Yamen, if you offend them, I'm afraid things will be difficult."

Master Qin calmed down, and said: "These people, he wants money, and I will give it to him, but since they dare to hit me with ideas, they are very clear about the consequences. If this is the case, this matter will definitely not happen. It's so easy, now I'm afraid that the night will be long and dreamy, Tianwang, please go and invite Master Zhao and Master Zhou to come over, I have my own plan for this matter."

Qin Tianwang paused, and replied: "I'll go right away." After speaking, he hurried out.

Chen Qingyu sat on the side and kept silent. In fact, this is not a good way. Those people choose to kidnap people at this time, obviously because they are short of money at the end of the year.But now that the government is alarmed, if something goes wrong and those people are forced to jump over the wall, then Miss Qin must be in danger.

"He Yi, you go find a few people. It's not too late now. You tell them to go up the mountain first, so you can find out some of their conditions. In addition, there are a few hunters in the north of the city who often go up the mountain. You find them together. They will pay as much money as they want, tomorrow afternoon, we will bring people up to pay the ransom, remember, if they are not sure that they can save people, don't be alarmed." Master Qin ordered.

It turned out that Master Qin was planning to make two-handed preparations. It seems that he is not old-fashioned yet.

Not long after He Yi went out, two men in Flying Eagle official uniforms came, followed by several robber arresting officers with knives.

"I've seen Master Qin."

"The two adults are tired, please sit down."

Master Qin said: "The little girl is in danger now, I hope the two adults will take care of her."

"Master Qin is polite. It is our duty to arrest the robbers. Since Miss Qin had an accident, we should take care of this matter. Please rest assured, Master Qin. With us, even if they are Prince Nezha, it is difficult for them to escape from us." Palm."

……

When Chen Qingyu came out, Feng Laosi was squatting in the corner waiting for her.

The two came to a secluded place, Feng Lao Si couldn't wait to ask: "How is it? I heard that Miss Qin was kidnapped by the gangsters from Cuiming Mountain. You said yes, why did this happen. "

Chen Qingyu didn't answer his question, but instead asked, "Fourth Uncle, tell me, could Qin Tianwang do this?"

Feng Lao Si thought for a while and said: "It's impossible. If he wants to do it, he can wait until now. What Qin Tianwang wants is the entire property of the Qin family. That said, this Qin Tianwang will never act rashly, and besides, if Miss Qin has an accident now, this Master Qin will definitely not let it go. Since the time is not up, Qin Tianwang is not so stupid."

"Yes, it's too early to start."

After finishing speaking, Chen Qingyu quickly walked outside.

Feng Laosi hurriedly stretched out his hand and shouted: "Hey, Qingyu, where are you going?"

"Go to the mountains to join in the fun."

"Ah, why are you going to join in the fun with this random letter, hey, hey! You really want to go..."

oops!This incident caused trouble, and Feng Laosi followed behind and called her: "Wait a minute, if you want to go, you should take something for self-defense!"

He yelled and followed quickly, but he couldn't keep up after all. When he went out of the main gate, he saw Chen Qingyun galloping away with a long whip.
