Chapter 532

Before Xin Zhizhou took office, Ge Yong and others sent people to inquire early on, and the incident of Lu Yongfu in Sizhou who flattered the horse's legs had already spread to their ears.

Therefore, there were no red cards to add to the fun at the banquet in Kaiming Building tonight, and the adults all brought their wives along, and even the young servants who served the food were also pretty and upright.After entering the table, men and women sit in separate rooms, entertaining each other without interfering with each other, just like a righteous atmosphere.

Xin Yi dressed up a bit before going out, swept her crescent eyebrows lightly, and painted her vermilion lips lightly, but she didn't use too bright clothes when she was pregnant. She was dressed in silk brocade and soft satin mainly for comfort, simple and generous, not rude, but also elegant. Her bright eyes, white teeth, and skin are like pink makeup, which is just right to attract people's eyes.

The Zhizhou is the largest present here, and she is also the princess of the county, so the wives naturally surround her.

Mrs. Chen, the wife of the judge Ge Yong, is the most mature and sophisticated, her compliments are not obvious, and the sincerity cannot be seen under the smile, but it will not make people feel uncomfortable.

The husbands of the other wives have slightly lower official positions, and it is a bit petty to sit with them, but they also have their own strengths and very different personalities. Some are straightforward, some are flattering, some are cautious, and some are gentle and quiet.

Words are spoken, and dramas are played on the table.

The play of the adults is in the court, and the play of the wives is in the backyard.

Xin Yi only sat for less than half an hour, and he felt like he was watching a Yangzhou official version of "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

She doesn't want to make friends with these wives, and her husband has no plans to get promoted and get rich. She politely met all the wives. Say goodbye and leave.

The ladies were a little disappointed.

Some showed it on their faces, some didn't, but they all sent each other off with smiles on their faces.

Xin Yi saluted and said: "It's my fault for spoiling the happiness of your wives. It's just that my body is sinking now, and I've been on a boat these days, and I'm dizzy. One step ahead."

Mrs. Chen said with a smile: "What did the princess of the county say? You are a noble person, and you came to the banquet while pregnant, which can be regarded as giving us enough face. How can you be offended? We women and Taoists have to be free all the year round. There will be plenty of time to get together again later, so you can take a rest, don't get tired, if there are any customs that can be of use to us, just do what you want..."

Another woman hurriedly said: "Yes, we are all idlers, we will be there whenever we are told!"

Xin Yi thanked him again.

The wives sent her to the gate of Kaiming Building, and there was already a carriage waiting for her.

They each saluted and said goodbye, and Xin Yi, supported by Xing Yuan, slowly got into the carriage.

"Come back, everyone, come back..."

She waved her hand, lowered the car curtain, let out a long sigh, and rubbed her cheeks that were sore from having to laugh.

"But pretend it's broken for me..."

Xingyuan smiled and handed the hand warmer to her.

"The servant girl thinks that life is better now."

Xin Yi glanced at her, "How do you say?"

Xingyuan said: "As the saying goes, it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. In the capital, there are officials, princesses, elders and relatives, and ministers who advise officials. Everyone is in charge of everything, but the constraints are tight. It's different when it comes to Yangzhou, everyone has to listen to the county king, but the county king has to listen to you, so our master is the biggest official..."

Xin Yi was amused, "Shut up, the king will tear your mouth carefully."

Xingyuan stuck out her tongue in fear, and said in a low voice: "The servant girl didn't talk nonsense, it's not like you haven't seen that, just now, the group of wives fawned on each other, I feel ashamed for them... "

Xin Yi shook his head.

"In the future, I will open my clinic and reduce official entertainment. I can't bear this kind of banquet after eating too much, and I'm going to shorten my life... Don't call me a master one by one, just call me a lady."

"The servant girl understands, my lady."

Xingyuan laughed, "Master, do you want to see Yangzhou City?"

Xin Yi: ...

Xingyuan has been by Xin Yi's side for some time, and she knows her temperament quite well.

The seemingly indifferent person actually has a fun-loving heart under her skin. When she first came to Yangzhou, she must be interested in night scenes.

Sure enough, Xin Yi signaled her to open the curtain.

"Look at the night view of Yangzhou."

The Kaiming Building is on the bank of the canal. The night lights in this area are as bright as the day, and it is extremely prosperous. The carriages drive to the middle of the street. Outside the bead curtain and emerald curtain, there are countless dance pavilions and singing stages, stretching on the shoreline of the canal, as if thousands of miles away. Far away, not to be exhausted.

"Three parts of the world are moonlit nights, and two parts are rascals, Yangzhou."

"Ten miles of Yangzhou Road in the spring breeze, it is better to roll up the bead curtain..."

Xin Yi couldn't help but uttered the sentence of the great poet in his memory, which caused Xingyuan to feel emotional.

"My lady is really a woman's husband, full of economics, knowledgeable from ancient to modern times, no wonder the king of the county dotes on you like a baby bump, and loves you..."

Xin Yi was ashamed, so embarrassed that his toes almost picked out a Yangzhou mansion on the carriage.

"I just have a good memory and can recite a few poems."

"That lady is not comparable to others, Taoyu and I can't recite it..."

When Xin Yi heard something wrong, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked over.

"Why do I feel like your mouth has been smeared with honey?"

Xingyuan chuckled lightly, "I didn't learn it from those wives, they are really good at complimenting people. They boasted more in one night than I did in a year..."

Both of them laughed.

At this time, the carriage suddenly bumped, and Xingyuan rushed forward, almost falling on Xin Yi's body. In order not to accidentally injure her master, she chose to get out of the spot and make Xin Yi's meat pad, and then slammed her body heavily on the seat , with a bang...

Fortunately, Xin Yi grabbed Xingyuan who fell to the ground, so he stabilized his figure and avoided an innocent disaster.

The carriage stopped.

Xin Yi looked at it and bumped into the drainage stone trough on the side of the road.

She took a deep breath and asked Xingyuan, "Are you okay?"

Xingyuan bumped her forehead, but she didn't care about herself, she crawled over and checked Xin Yi's body, "I'm fine, princess, how are you? Did you hit anything? Is your stomach uncomfortable?"

Xin Yi shook his head, opened the curtain and asked, "What's going on?"

The coachman was arranged by the state government office. He was a fat middle-aged man in his forties. He was frightened by the sudden accident. He frantically checked the carriage, and then kept apologizing to Xin Yi.

"My lady, the axle is broken, and I can't move right now, so I'll find a way to change to a carriage to take you back home..."

It was lucky that he didn't run into a pedestrian, and Xin Yi didn't care about some unexpected glitches.

"Okay. Don't worry, take your time..."

If it wasn't for nightfall and she didn't know the way, she would probably take the girl and walk back to the mansion slowly, but now she can only sit obediently in the car, looking at the bustling ten-mile Yangzhou Road, and waiting silently.

The coachman came and went quickly, and brought back a man who looked like a craftsman in the blink of an eye.

The man looked at the carriage and pointed to the shop ahead.

"Drag it to my car dealership, just change a bearing, it won't take a while..."

The coachman discussed with Xin Yi, and Xin Yi agreed.

The car dealership was on the street, she got out of the car and walked, accompanied by two girls, she walked over quickly.

The car dealership provided tables and chairs for the guests, and Xin Yi sat in the interior and watched the various cars on sale.

The coachman was very nervous. On the first day he took office, he broke the carriage and let Mrs. Zhizhou get out of the carriage halfway to wait. He was drenched in sweat and dared not face Xin Yi, so he only went to talk to the craftsman who repaired the carriage.

"Alas……"

The craftsman took the tools to unload the car, and suddenly made a surprised sound.

"How could it be this car?"

Through a curtain, Xin Yi caught the meaning of his words and winked at Xingyuan.

The coachman asked, "What do you mean by that?"

The craftsman frowned, glanced at his clothes, then looked at the carriage, and shook his head, "It shouldn't be, maybe it's because of villain's eyesight."

The coachman didn't say anything, but Xin Yi got up slowly, put his hand on Xingyuan's arm, and walked out.

"Brother, can you please tell me what's unusual about this car?"

The craftsman raised his head and saw such a beautiful lady, he didn't dare to say much, he lowered his head, clasped his fists repeatedly, and begged for forgiveness, "I was dazzled for a while, please forgive me..."

Xin Yi smiled slightly, "I'm not a judge in the yamen, how can I inflict crimes at every turn? I'm just curious."

Xingyuan quickly picked up the words, "You can just say what's weird, our wife is the most magnanimous, she doesn't care..."

The craftsman hesitated, "Looking at the extraordinary bearing of the lady, I don't think she's someone who doesn't know how to use this kind of carriage. The small one is just dazzling."

Xingyuan stepped forward, and stuffed a small piece of broken silver into his hand.

"The lady told you to say it, so you say it, if it's not right, just treat it as an interesting thing..."

Having money and laughing, the craftsman became bold, "I will tell you my wife, I have been in Wei's car dealership for more than ten years, and I will always have an impression of any car that passes through my hands. This one..."

He took the iron pliers and tapped lightly on the broken axle.

"It's very similar to the soul-locked car repaired by the villain a few years ago..."
