The next day, Qin Mubai still got up early, practiced martial arts in the backyard, had breakfast with Princess Gaoyang, his mother, sister, and Yao'er, and then went to the study to write a letter and send it to Lanzhou.
Naturally, the letter was written to his father. It was nothing more than a wish to assure him that he was safe, and to talk about the family feud. In addition, he also told his father the details of his marriage to Princess Gaoyang, which Qin Shubao was most concerned about. In fact, Qin Shubao has always had a wish that he could come to Chang'an in person when Qin Mubai gets married. But at least now it seems that it is a piece of lies. Lanzhou cannot be left without an owner for a day, and he obviously cannot escape easily.
In addition, he sent a letter to Xiangzhou, telling Wu Meiniang that he would be coming soon. Originally, he wanted to surprise Wu Meiniang without telling her, but he thought he might as well. Wu Meiniang often travels to various places to do business in the wind and rain, so it would not be good if she missed it by accident. At the same time, he also sent a letter to Pang Fei of the Xiangzhou Military Mansion, telling him the same thing, and briefly asked about Chen Yan's news. Pang Fei is a smart man. There is probably no need to be verbose in the letter about what to do and what to prepare when the time comes.
While Qin Mubai was tinkering with pen and ink in the study, Princess Gaoyang was chatting with her mother and sister, and the theme was travel.
They all couldn't wait any longer. The Qin family had packed their bags early, just waiting for Qin Mubai to give the order and set off south. It's winter, it's very cold in Guan Nei, but it's much warmer in Jingxiang and Huyang. My mother, Mrs. Liu, was originally from the south and is full of nostalgia for that place.
When Qin Mubai came among them, the three of them looked at him with eager eyes and asked, "When will you get up and go to Xiangzhou?"
Qin Mubai smiled slightly: "You can do it now."
"Yeah—" Princess Gao Yang and Shuang'er cheered and high-fived each other.
"Mom, I'm going to ask the maid and servants to pack up the carriages and horses!" Shuang'er ran away in a hurry.
Mrs. Liu was also very happy and stood up and said: "I'll go help Shuang'er for my mother, and leave the housekeeper and Yao'er to handle the family affairs."
"Wait a minute, mother." Qin Mubai stopped her and said, "Didn't you agree to take Yao'er with you?"
"She refused to go." Ms. Liu stood still and said with a regretful smile, "This child is just stubborn. She said that Wu Meiniang handed over Chang'an Qinxian Pavilion to her, and she could not leave her post without permission. And she had to take care of those things. If you want to leave, the little orphan girl, you must take them with you for fear of disturbing us. "
Qin Mubai frowned and said, "She went to Qinxian Pavilion early in the morning, right? I'll go there in person later and persuade her to come with us. If there's any big deal in Qinxian Pavilion, just leave it to Wu Yuanqing; take care of it. Wouldn’t it be more festive with a group of little girls?”
"Forget it, Sanlang." Mother said softly, "Although Yao'er is gentle and weak, she also has her own opinions and ideas. You should respect her opinions."
Qin Mubai frowned and was silent, thinking to himself: Although Yao'er has been adopted as an adopted daughter by my father, she still refuses to travel with us. In the final analysis, she still puts herself in a humble servant position and refuses to enjoy " "Master" treatment. Moreover, along the way, Princess Gaoyang accompanied me, and when I went to Xiangzhou, there was Wu Meiniang... Would it be torture for her to see me flirting with them and showing affection
Thinking of this, Qin Mubai could only helplessly shake his head and said, "Okay! It's just that I don't worry about leaving her alone in Chang'an."
"This is easy to handle." Princess Gaoyang answered, "Don't we still have a hundred cavalry guards sent by the emperor? Leave half of them to protect Yao'er and those little orphans!"
Qin Mubai Wan'er smiled: "You finally did something reliable - just do it!"
"Hee hee!" Princess Gao Yang smiled proudly, but her expression immediately changed, "You mean, everything I did before was not 'reliable'?... What does "reliable" mean?"
"Ahem, this..." Qin Mubai smiled bitterly and showed Princess Gaoyang with his eyes that his mother was there! As expected, Princess Gaoyang immediately changed her color, with a graceful and dignified expression, and a seemingly holy and flawless smile on her face.
Mr. Liu shook his head and smiled, then left and went about his business. As soon as she stepped forward, Princess Gaoyang behind her jumped up with teeth and claws, and threw Qin Mubai, who was sitting on the couch, to the ground.
“Tell me, what does reliable mean?!”
…
Three days later, in Xiangyang County, Xiangzhou Prefecture, in the back hall of the "Qinxian Trading Company" in Chengbeigang City.
Wu Meiniang read a letter, her red lips raised slightly, and the corners of her mouth formed a charming and playful smile.
"Did this guy finally remember me?"
Su Lianqing sat next to her, leaning her legs and licking melon seeds. She spat out a piece of melon seed shell with a devilish smile, "Congratulations to my boss, congratulations to my boss!"
Wu Meiniang folded the letter gracefully and carefully with her fingers and put it back in the envelope. She looked sideways at her and said with a half-smile, "What's the worry?"
Su Lianqing curled her lips and said, "Looking at you smiling so happily and sweetly, Qin Mubai must be here!"
Wu Meiniang smiled and was noncommittal.
Su Lianqing, a thousand-year-old demon among women, is there something she can't see through and guess? This little thing between a boy and a girl was as familiar to her as her own fingers, which she had seen ten thousand times. Sometimes Wu Meiniang even wonders, if a woman has lived to her level, will she still be interested in men or relationships? This will make you become a demon.
But the reality is that Su Lianqing, a thousand-year-old monster, is always like a young girl eager to meet her "right one", and to truly fall in love with someone like a sixteen-year-old woman. Then marry him without hesitation, give him a fat boy, and live out your life quietly.
Although it sounds exaggerated, in fact, this is a life that more than 90% of women in the world will experience. How can there be so many classic love stories that are shocking and have been passed down through the ages? Vulgarity and ordinaryness are common things in this world. Just when everyone is longing for the shocking and the unparalleled love in the world, Su Lianqing is longing for the most common vulgarity and ordinaryness in the world.
"Women are really strange animals." Wu Meiniang couldn't help but think of what Qin Mubai once said. The corners of his mouth raised slightly again, showing a rather playful smile, and said, "Su Lianqing, if you are asked to be Qin Mubai's woman, would you like it?"
"I don't want to." Su Lianqing replied without thinking, then glanced sideways at Wu Meiniang, and before she could ask, she said, "Don't ask me why."
Wu Meiniang frowned, "Why?"
Su Lianqing's expression and movements were stagnant. She threw away a few dry melon seeds in her hand, clapped her hands and said, "He is a gangster and I am a bastard. We don't know each other!"
Wu Meiniang smiled, her almond-shaped eyes curved, and she was full of charm.
The difference between women and girls is by no means a simple membrane. Perhaps a year ago, Wu Meiniang was still a girl, an extremely beautiful and intelligent girl. But now, Su Lianqing had to admit that she was already a woman.
Her charm comes from the experience of life emotions and the accumulation of knowledge and wisdom, which has penetrated deep into the bone marrow. From a secular point of view, Wu Meiniang, who is seventeen or eighteen years old, may be qualified to be a mother, but at such an age, she is destined to be labeled "immature".
However, Wu Meiniang, who traveled all over the country to build a huge business empire, can never be equated with immaturity. The shrewd and almost demonic old businessmen who had come into contact with her never dared to look down upon Wu Meiniang just because she was a young woman.
A successful man of seventeen or eighteen years old, a business wizard, already has the aura of "legend" above his head. This almost makes people ignore her age and even gender.
Therefore, Su Lianqing always believed that Wu Meiniang was definitely a more evil being than her in the world. Without the need for holidays, this young woman's moral behavior can completely feed her.
This is the reason why Su Lianqing has been following Wu Meiniang with peace of mind and confusion, even if she is allowed to shout around like a handyman. Because there are many people who are much better than her in martial arts, more beautiful than her, smarter than her, smarter, crueler, and shameless. There are many sluts out there, but I have only ever encountered anyone who is more evil than her. Wu Meiniang is this one.
When Su Lianqing grabbed the fourth handful of melon seeds, a maid came in and announced that Zheng Anshun, the eldest young master of the Zheng family, was here.
"Here we go again. Don't give up yet." Su Lianqing spat out a melon seed shell frivolously, looked at Wu Meiniang provocatively and said, "Big boss, if you don't cut off the little tail of this infatuated seed, wait until Qin Zhengfang comes. , but the world will be in chaos."
Wu Meiniang smiled sweetly: "Wouldn't that be better? - Invite him in and prepare tea!"
Su Lianqing rolled her eyes, "I'm waiting for the good show."
Zheng Anshun arrived, his steps as usual were light and neither hurried nor slow, neither deep nor frivolous, as free and unrestrained as the only boat rowing on the clear river.
It is not easy for the sole heir to the richest man in the Tang Dynasty and a business genius who dominates the world, to be so refreshing and natural, to greet an ordinary maid and servant with a smile without any arrogance or harshness of the rich.
Su Lianqing squinted her eyes and looked at Zheng Anshun, who was approaching, and said, "For more than 90% of the women in the Tang Dynasty, Zheng Anshun is the perfect husband."
Wu Meiniang smiled and said nothing.
"It's a pity that the person he loves is in another city."
"Not necessarily." Wu Meiniang smiled, a little weirdly.
Su Lianqing was startled, then smiled, her eyes filled with demonic aura, "Why don't you observe Women's Day and have sex with Hongxing? How exciting!"
"Zheng Anshun, in my opinion, is just as perfect. This is a fact, and it can't be changed whether I admit it or not. But it has nothing to do with whether I like him or not." The smile on Wu Meiniang's face was still light, but in Su Lianqing's view, it was It seems a bit inscrutable.
"Sophistry and talkativeness." Su Lianqing sneered, "How dare you say that you are not moved by his infatuation at all?"
"No." Wu Meiniang answered firmly.
"Who are you lying to?" Su Lianqing sneered.
"How can you be moved by someone who has no heart?" Wu Meiniang raised the corners of her mouth slightly, folded the letter with both hands and put it into her arms, placing it close to her flesh, and said, "My heart has been destroyed a long time ago. A philandering and shameless gangster was eaten alive."
Su Lianqing raised her eyebrows and curled her lips in shock, "You damn duck is so stubborn! I don't believe it. If Qin Mubai waits for another year and a half without talking to you and only cares about being romantic and happy with other women, how can you Can you hold back Hongxing?"
"Maybe!" Wu Meiniang smiled relaxedly and relievedly, with a hint of a fox-like evil smile on her beautiful face, and whispered, "But it happened to be a coincidence. Even if I am in love and want Hongxing to come out, The wall doesn’t stand a chance, does it?”
Su Lianqing was a little angry, it was like waiting for a good show but waiting for a long time only to see a bad show that she had seen thousands of times. She threw away the remaining melon seeds in her hand and rolled her eyes, "What a waste of my saliva!"
