Reborn Concubine's Wife

Chapter 41 Black Market
At night, Zheng Jinxiao was still not seen, and only sent a person to say that he was staying in Hongxiangfang.After Zheng Ruo heard it, Liu Mei frowned slightly, her face was very displeased, but she had nothing to do with her elder brother.

On the second day, she still took Xu Yi and Liu Xu out of the small yard, and went straight to the East Street, this time she let Xu Yi take a longer walk.

For seven days in a row, she took Xu Yiliuxu out early in the morning, wandering around the East Street constantly.Xu Yi and Liu Xu became less and less aware of their girl's intentions, but every time they asked each other, Zheng Ruo just smiled lightly and didn't answer.Later, they stopped asking.

Under Zheng Ruo's indifferent appearance, her heart became more and more anxious.I even began to wonder if I remembered it wrong. In fact, there is no such place as my father, brother and Shi Yue said on East Street?Or, this market is not on East Street at all?
Although she has a treasure chest in her hand, she cannot use it at will. Even if she uses it, there will always be a day when the treasures in it will be used up.After going through her previous life, she knew that if a woman wants to gain a foothold, money is essential.As Xu Yi said, she urgently needs a way to make money make money, or make a living, or a way out.

Just as she was wandering around the East Street like a headless fly, the same carriage and the same people appeared here for several days, which also attracted some people's attention.

There is a shop near the government office at the back of East Street.There are two floors, upper and lower, and the bottom is selling silk, all of which are of high-quality silk and satin, which can be seen from the south of the Yangtze River.The second floor is the resting place for the shopkeepers. The whole building is extremely elegantly constructed, and the carved beams and painted buildings have the meticulousness of Jiangnan.

At this time, on the second floor, two men were sitting cross-legged facing each other.There was a table between the two, and there was a light smoke from the crane smoker next to them. The two held a black and white son, and they were having a conversation with each other.

One of them was wearing a maroon robe, and his long hair was not tied up, but was loosely let loose, with a hint of madness.With sword eyebrows and star eyes, he is a rare handsome gentleman in the world.Opposite him, the man sitting, always has a faint smile on his lips intentionally or unintentionally, with a lofty and handsome bearing.The two beautiful boys were sitting opposite each other, if they were seen by those girls, they would have to scream again.

It was Wang Jiulang, Wang Jinzhi and Zhou Jue.

Zhou Jue glanced at the slowly moving carriage downstairs, snapped the white piece in his hand, and said with great interest, "It's been seven days, and this carriage always appears here at this hour."

Wang Jiulang put Baizi next to Heizi, followed his words, glanced out of the window, and said, "It's your turn."

Zhou Jue looked at him with a smile, and said, "Jiulang, I heard that you saved her back then? You also praised her qin, and I heard that you once had such a good time with her that you forgot to go home? Jiulang, did you Are you happy with her?"

Wang Jiulang looked up at him faintly, smiled, and didn't answer, only urged: "It's your turn."

"Jiulang, is it because she comes here every day to find you?" Zhou Jue teased.

Wang Jiulang looked at the carriage downstairs again, then looked away for a moment, pointed at the chessboard and said, "Are you playing or not?" He spoke very slowly, with a hint of carelessness and laziness.

Zhou Jue chuckled, and dropped the white piece in his hand on the chessboard again.Then he looked at the woman who got out of the carriage and stood on the side of the road looking around.

"Although there are countless beauties in my backyard, but the color of this one is much stronger than those." He turned his head and looked at Wang Jinzhidao, "Jiulang, if you want, I won't get involved with her. But if you don't care, if such a beauty is missed, I will beat my chest." He paused, as if to give Wang Jiulang room to think, and then asked with a smile, "Jiulang, do you want it or not?"

The sunspot that Wang Jiulang was about to fall suddenly froze in mid-air, and looked at the tall, imaginative back downstairs again with eyes as clear as ten thousand years of snow mountains, and smiled, but didn't answer. With a sound of "pa", the sunspot fell and trapped the white dragon, and the black dragon won the game.

Zhou Jue tossed the chess piece in his hand with some disinterest, "It's boring. You win every time." Then he stood up and walked downstairs, "Since you don't speak, I'll take it as your acquiescence." After speaking, his men had disappeared down the stairs.

Only Wang Jin was left on the second floor, and the empty upstairs gave him a feeling of suffocation, which made him a little restless for no reason.After taking the sake on the side, he took a sip.When he turned out of the window again, Zhou Jue was already standing beside the woman, talking in a low voice with a smile on his face.

Suddenly, he felt that the sake he drank just now was very strong, and his stomach twitched.

March is drawing to a close, and April is approaching quietly.The daytime is getting longer little by little, and the setting sun is like a round duck egg yolk in the west, softening the surrounding clouds and covering them with an orange glow.

A carriage creaked on the street paved with bluestone slabs.The Wubao of the Zheng Mansion soon appeared in front of him, and the Wubao was in the shape of a Chinese character.The more direct descendants live in the center of Wubao, the side branches like Zheng Ruo can only live in the periphery.

From Zheng Ruo's small courtyard to the courtyard where the Patriarch is, it takes about an hour even with a carriage.

When the carriage stopped in the yard, Ping Ruo immediately came up to meet her.

"Girl, sister-in-laws have been here for a long time."

Zheng Ruo helped Liu Xu's hand to get out of the carriage, her face was still bright red, it was because of Zhou Jue's disciple just now.She looked into the yard, Yang Zhi was serving Zheng Wan and Zheng Ru affectionately, as if she was their maidservant.

Hearing the noise from outside, sitting in the yard bored, Hu Tianman chatted and all the sister-in-laws stopped.All eyes looked at Zheng Ruo in unison.Or inquiry, or doubt, or disdain.After getting off the carriage, Zheng Ruo didn't seem to see these scrutinizing eyes, walked over slowly, saluted all the cousins, and then said gently: "I don't know that all the sisters are here, Zheng Ruo is negligent."

"Ah Ruo, where have you been? I have been waiting here for a long time."

"Ah Ruo, I'm sitting here, why don't you see your servants entertaining you? Take a look, can I drink this tea?"
