Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 139 I fell in love with an idiot

Zhao Xiwei and Zhao Ziyi came out of Deyue Tower together, and Zhao Ziyi went straight to the government office because he was still busy with disaster relief.

Zhao Xiwei returned home with Jinxiu.

The heavy rain had just stopped, and the cold air was filled with the fragrance of earth, and the bluestone streets were washed clean.

The carriage rolled through the noisy long street, and the small vendors along the street set up their sheds with breezy faces, shouting loudly: "Hey, eat mutton dumplings - delicious mutton dumplings, mutton dumplings with big stuffing and thin skin! Pass by Try it, it doesn’t cost money if it’s not good!”

Zhao Xiwei's stomach grumbled.

Jinxiu thought for a while, opened the curtain of the car, and explained a few words to the boy driving outside.

"Yes." The servant replied, and hurriedly parked the carriage on the side of the road, took the money bag from Jinxiu, and trotted to the side of the stall.

After a while, a bowl of steaming mutton dumplings was brought onto the carriage.

Milky white bone broth, sprinkled with chopped green onion and pepper, the dumplings are big and thin, and the entrance is smooth and chewy.

Zhao Xiwei ate seriously and quickly.

After the last dumpling was eaten, she drank all the soup in the bowl, and handed the bowl to Jinxiu contentedly: "It's delicious. If you come out in the future, bring me a bowl of soup." Let's go back, okay?"

Jinxiu pursed her lips and smiled: "Miss went to Deyue Tower, but she ate at a roadside stall, who would believe it?"

Zhao Xiwei let out a "hey": "Today I came here for disaster relief, not for eating. Besides, how can His Royal Highness have time to eat with me?"

When it came to disaster relief, Jinxiu had heard a little bit about it, so she asked worriedly: "Is everything settled? His Highness the Crown Prince didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

"He is the one who asked our Zhao family for help, so why bother me."

The carriage continued to move forward slowly, and Zhao Xiwei sat in the car with half of his face propped up in his hands, frowning helplessly: "The real difficulty lies in the back, Taihe Mipu is the most important shop under the name of the second lady, and it is Her natal family's dowry... the second wife must be very reluctant, how should I tell her this?"

Although Li Xuanye was willing to compensate Mipu with 5000 taels, there are some things that money can't justify.

"It's really troublesome..."

Jinxiu thought about it for a while, and showed a look of admiration on her face: "As far as I know, Taihe Mipu has devoted the second lady's hard work for several years. In order to run it well, when the second lady was pregnant with Miss Yu, she was still pregnant. Going around, she personally visited the farms and tenants in the suburbs of Beijing, and even sent people to follow up on the plowing and harvesting of the crops... Only in this way can the quality of grain and rice be better than others .”

Zhao Xiwei couldn't help admiring him secretly.

Although Mrs. Yuan has the weakness of a businessman in his bones—he attaches too much importance to interests, but the tenacity of daring to break through and fight hard is what those pampered ladies lack.

Compared with those women who can only be trapped in the inner house, Yuan's life is no less exciting than those men who are in officialdom.

Zhao Xiwei couldn't help but praised: "Second Madam is really a man of the girls."

"Hey……"

Jinxiu was a little hesitant, and she lowered her voice a little, "Second madam is nice, but because of her background, she has never been valued by the old madam. She was the first to marry in, but the old madam has been slow to let her interfere in the affairs of the house. That's all. After the first lady got married, it was only on the third day that the old lady let go of power. Later, the first lady gradually got acquainted with the second lady, and the relationship between the two was very close. The first lady felt sorry, so she went there in person Tell the old lady, and let the second lady assist with the affairs of the Zhao family."

Zhao Xiwei was a little surprised when he heard this.

Unexpectedly, the old lady's family background prejudice is so deep.

I also thought of the third wife, Mrs. Sun, she is so gentle and kind, but she is not very favored by the old lady.

He must also think that her background is too low, and he looks down upon her from the bottom of his heart.

The fake identity of Xiaomen Xiaohu has been so disgusted. If one day, the old lady learns the real life experience of the third lady, she will be mercilessly kicked out of her house, right?
What will the third lady do then?
And her two daughters, what should I do?
Zhao Xiwei couldn't help feeling deeply worried.

Seeing her lady's dull face, Jinxiu thought she was worried about Mipu's affairs, so she explained, "Don't worry, the second lady is not a difficult person to talk to, as long as you can show enough sincerity to have a good relationship with her." Talk, she will definitely understand you, miss."

"Yes." Zhao Xiwei replied absent-mindedly.

The cold wind blows gently over the car windows, rolling up the light green curtains, and row after row of street scenes flash before my eyes one by one.

Her eyes flicked inadvertently, and suddenly she saw a familiar face passing by the opposite wine shop.

"Wait a minute." She whispered, quickly opened the curtain of the car, and shouted to the boy driving outside to stop.

"Woo—" The carriage slowly stopped at a corner alley.

Before Jinxiu could react, Zhao Xiwei got up on his own and jumped off the carriage.

"Oh, miss, this is on the street, it would be bad for others to see it later—"

Jinxiu hurriedly jumped down, and while she was giving instructions, she pulled the cloak on Zhao Xiwei's body, trying to make the hat cover the young lady's head as much as possible.

Zhao Xi slightly pushed aside the fox fur covering half of his face, and watched the two figures come out of the wine shop with fixed eyes.

One in front and one behind, a man and a woman.

The man was dressed in purple, tall and thin, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, revealing a bit of frivolity and arrogance.

The woman was wearing a yellow dress, with a medium build and a bright face, showing a bit of shyness and nervousness.

Jin Xiu's eyes fell on the woman, her eyes widened, and she murmured: "That person... that woman, seems to be Miss Yu from our house..."

"It doesn't seem like it." Zhao Xiwei looked cold, "It's Zhao Chengyu. The man in purple in front of her is Wang Fan."

Jinxiu was so frightened that her face turned pale, she gaped and said, "Miss Yu, she, she, why did she and Wang..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Zhao Xiwei pulled him suddenly and dodged to hide behind the wall.

"Miss..." Jinxiu whispered.

"Shhh—" Zhao Xiwei put his finger to his mouth to signal her to keep silent, then leaned against the wall with his waist bent, his vigilant and calm almond eyes stared at the two people in front of him without blinking.

It seems that this is not the first time Wang Fan and Zhao Chengyu have met.

Although the distance was two steps away in order to deceive people, the faint blush on Zhao Chengyu's face and the inseparable gaze from Wang Fan made Zhao Xiwei confirm one thing in an instant!

This idiot, who is not good in his fancy, why did he fall in love with such an idiot! ?

It was too late to think about when these two people became acquainted, because they were already walking towards this side.
