Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 239
A slender hand held a string of copper plates and passed him, placing them in front of the small vendor.

Song Jingxing turned his head, and what caught his eyes was a veil-like face.

Even across the face, he recognized Zhao Jinyi at a glance.

The small vendor smiled happily, took the copper plate neatly, and stuffed the steamed buns to Song Jingxing: "Thank you, young lady, let's go!"

Song Jingxing held a warm steamed bun in his arms, looked at Zhao Jinyi and smiled, "What a coincidence."

Zhao Jinyi also smiled at Qianxi: "Brother Song, eating only steamed buns is too dry. There is a porridge shop nearby, and the taste is not bad. Brother Song might as well try it."

Song Jingxing smiled softly and said, "Fourth sister should go too."

Crow hurried over and took the donkey's reins from him.

The two entered the porridge shop together.

It was not mealtime at this time, only the waiter was cleaning the table in the porridge shop.

The two of them sat down, Zhao Jinyi took off her lower body, and the man opposite him stared at her face.Zhao Jinyi couldn't help but his face turned hot: "Let me invite you, I wish you a promotion." It's really strange. When they didn't make a vow to marry him before, the two of them got along very normally, but since they wanted to marry him, they got along very well. , but I feel a little uncomfortable.

Song Jingxing only said softly: "Okay. Thank you Jinyi." His eyes still fell on Zhao Jinyi's face.After raising her for a few days, her complexion became more rosy, and she was no longer as bluffing as that day.

Zhao Jinyi felt that her face was getting hotter, and she covered it up and said, "How about eating chicken porridge? The porridge here is not bad."

Song Jingxing still only said softly: "Okay, I will follow your orders."

Zhao Jinyi called the waiter and ordered two cups of chicken porridge and side dishes.

Song Jingxing only looked at her with a smile.

It seems a little embarrassing.Zhao Jinyi bit his lip and was about to speak, when Song Jingxing asked softly, "Have you finished the medicine? I heard that your voice is still a little hoarse. If you feel good after taking the medicine, I'll go get it again. By the way." , does your waist still hurt?"

Zhao Jinyi just shook his head: "It's much better."

She suddenly became less anxious, and her waist, which was sitting upright, suddenly relaxed, and she asked him with her chin: "Didn't you say before that you don't want to be an official? Why did you enter the imperial infantry and become a fifth-rank officer?" Commander?"

The appearance of her holding her chin is that of a complete girl, delicate and cute, unlike before, there was always a maturity beyond her age.

Song Jingxing liked her appearance very much.

He looked at his girl with a smile on his face: "I just hope to do my best to make my arms stronger, to protect the person I want to protect, and to shield her from more wind and rain."

Zhao Jinyi felt his face was burning as hot as that day's high fever.Why didn't she realize that Song Jingxing's words were so sweet.

She only heard herself muttering: "There are many intrigues in the officialdom, you have to protect yourself."

"Well, we all listen to Jin Yi." Song Jingxing said with a cheerful expression, "After a while, let's fix the date of marriage, shall we?"

He couldn't wait to marry the girl he loved in front of him back home.In this way, when he is off duty every day, he can see her openly, hug her, and listen to her whispering.

All his desires are reflected in his eyes.

Zhao Jinyi's face blushed even more under his scorching gaze.But rationality pulled her back: "If you are taking a rest, how about meeting my grandfather? My grandfather loved me since I was a child and enlightened me. I was able to walk freely outside because of my grandfather's support. After meeting my grandfather , let’s fix the date of marriage.”

She wanted to meet Song Jingxing while her grandfather was still awake.

Song Jingxing readily agreed: "I will visit my grandfather when I rest on the [-]th day of April. I wonder what my grandfather likes?"

Zhao Jinyi smiled and said, "Grandfather has a lot of hobbies, so how can he take care of everything. You might as well give him some tea." Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered the engagement between Zhao Jinqing and Xiao Yang, and seeing Song Jingxing's expression, It should be that it is not necessary, so he said, "My third uncle's daughter, fifth sister Zhao Jinqing is already engaged to Xiao Yang, and the wedding date is set on April [-]th, can you save it?"

Song Jingxing was really surprised: "The third uncle's daughter is going to marry Xiao Yang? I've been busy with other things recently, and I haven't been to Xiao's house yet." He didn't forget that Zhao Chenghuan chased him and Jinyi to death.Since Zhao Chenghuan can find out Jinyi's Linglong Bookstore, he must save his relationship with Xiao Yang.

Only then did Zhao Jinyi realize that he hadn't told him about his third uncle being locked up, nor about Zhao Jinqing's claim that he dreamed of his aunt.

Then she said to him in detail: "Third Uncle doesn't care about this..."

While talking, the fragrant chicken porridge was served. Song Jingxing thoughtfully scooped the porridge into a small bowl and let it cool before handing it to Zhao Jinyi: "Your voice is not fully healed yet, so please speak slowly. available."

Talking to him, Zhao Jinyi was completely tireless.At this time Song Jingxing said that he felt that his throat was extremely dry.

She ate a few mouthfuls of warm porridge, only to feel relieved a lot.

Song Jingxing said: "Do you think this matter is very strange?"

Zhao Jinyi said: "But to tell you the truth, my fifth younger sister used to hate the poor and love the rich, but now she suddenly wants to marry Xiao Yang, isn't it very strange?"

Song Jingxing also nodded: "When I knew Xiao Yang, he was poor, skinny, ragged, and didn't even have a pair of straw sandals on his feet. He came hungry to apply for craftsmen, but passed out after moving bricks for an hour. I rescued him Wake up, sent back to Xiao's house, only to find that Aunt Xiao was dying of illness, only one breath left."

Naturally, he couldn't stand idly by, and immediately invited medical workers to treat Youshi, bought rice, noodles, and vegetables, and left a sum of money for Xiao Yang: "When my aunt's condition stabilizes, come find me to work."

He said: "If the Xiao family really hid the money that was never confiscated when the house was ransacked twenty years ago, Xiao Yang should have taken it out when Aunt Xiao was dying."

Zhao Jinyi also scooped up the porridge and handed it to him: "Eat it quickly."

Song Jingxing moved very quickly, and he ate up a cup of chicken porridge and two steamed buns in no time.

Just put down the bowl, a pure white handkerchief was handed to him.

Zhao Jinyi blushed like a fire: "I embroidered it."

His girl even embroidered veils for him!Song Jingxing took the veil and looked at it happily, only to find that there was an ax crookedly embroidered on it.

Zhao Jinyi covered her face: "If you don't like it..." She had already tried her best, but the needle and thread were not as obedient as the needle and thread in Mei Ran's hands.

Song Jingxing hurriedly said: "I like it, of course I like it, as long as it is made by Jinyi, I like it." After saying that, he hurriedly folded the handkerchief and put it in his lapel.

Zhao Jinyi's voice was low: "That's for you to wipe your mouth..."

Song Jingxing quickly took out the handkerchief again, and wiped his mouth very gently.

Mei Ran, who was watching not far away, kept her smile in her heart as much as possible.

The girl and uncle of their family are really a pair of living treasures...

Zhao Jinyi cleared his throat, and asked Song Jingxing curiously, "How much do you know about the Xiao family?"

Most people outside know about Xiao Li being beheaded for corrupting ink and Xiao's family being ransacked and exiled, but when asked about the details of that year, few people know.As for the current situation of the descendants of the Xiao family, there is no one to worry about.

Song Jingxing shook his head: "I never ask, and Xiao Yang doesn't tell either."

Zhao Jinyi was a little disappointed: "I went to Changchun to inquire a long time ago, but there was no clue for a long time."

Song Jingxing said, "My aunt probably knows a thing or two about the Xiao family's affairs. Back then, my father went to the Xiao's house to make furniture, and my aunt also went to help at that time. My mother said that there is a mother-in-law in the Xiao family. Zi Zi is quite talkative, and once talked to her about some trivial things about Xiao's family."

　Yesterday, I carried my one-year-old and twenty-pound baby up to the heights and looked far away. I was exhausted...

　　Oh, dear Arakusa, that "hand split" position really exists...

　　Although the background is empty, most of them are based on the Song Dynasty, so I bought a very thick "Song Dynasty Official System Dictionary"... There are some very strange positions in it, such as "carrying plates at dinner parties, literacy yellow yard..."
