Chapter 62
"You, you..." Tang Huafen's eloquence seemed to be tied up. She thought that Luo Qingchen had the upper hand that day because of the young man in the carriage helping her.

However, she was wrong, even though there was no second person beside them at this time, Tang Huafen thought that her status in the escort agency was higher than that of Luo Qingchen's mother and son, but in front of Luo Qingchen, she felt that she was getting more and more humble.

"If my master knows how you deliberately deceived my mother, you still want to get married from the escort agency? I won't say it, it's not that I don't know what your plans are, what wicked things you have done, but that my mother is kind to others. , I don't want to break her heart. She knows that you are not good to her, why did you go to meet her? She is sincerely good to you, but you are heartless and repay kindness with grievances. Now it is not only this family that is suffering here, everyone else is busy You are the only one who has nothing to do and chews your tongue! If you have such leisure, I advise you to think about how to make up for the dowry, so that people will not be seen as a joke when they come to welcome the bride. I heard that in some places, the dowry is shabby. I can't hold my head up and be a human being!"

What Luo Qingchen said was not to scare Tang Huafen, as it is the custom in some places, how much a woman's dowry represents her natal family's ability and the importance it attaches to this woman.If the mother's family despises the bride, the husband's family will not pay much attention to it.

Tang Huafen didn't dare to provoke Luo Qingchen anymore, and was even more afraid that she would be bullied for the rest of her life and would not be able to hold her head up. She would have no time to spread rumors and make trouble, so she hurried to help Shen Jian clean up the family property.

"Qingchen, you are right, she is so ignorant because no one taught her." Shen Lu walked over and said: "Your side is completely ruined, I wanted you to come back to live, but look here... I will temporarily place the godmother at Aunt Wang's place across the street, but this is not a long-term solution."

Luo Qingchen nodded: "I see, even if you guys are fine, I won't let my mother come over to listen to other people's gossip. I will immediately find a way..."

"Miss Qingchen, if you don't give up, there is an idle house near my mansion, you can stay for a while." A voice came from behind them.

Luo Qingchen and Shen Lu looked back, only to see a middle-aged man dressed as a scribe walking down from the carriage, with a long beard flowing under his chin, giving him a sense of elegance.

"Master Shangshu, what a coincidence." Luo Qingchen said with a meaningful smile.

After Shen Lu greeted Xu Hongwen, he returned to the Escort Bureau to get busy.

Xu Hongwen looked at the devastation, frowned slightly, and said with a worried look: "I just went down to court and heard that there was a fire here last night, so I came to have a look. I didn't expect it to be your residence. Yesterday, there was a lot of activity in front of the gate. Yes, overnight... I just asked, but fortunately, some people were only slightly injured, and no life was in danger. As a court official, I should care about the suffering of the people."

Concerned about the suffering of the people?This fire must have something to do with the Xu family, but Xu Hongwen would look for an opportunity and come right away, it really took great pains.

Luo Qingchen said nonchalantly: "Then I won't bother Mr. Shang Shu to care about the suffering of the people."

After all, Luo Qingchen turned around to leave as if she hadn't heard Xu Hongwen's previous proposal.

Xu Hongwen hurriedly said: "Please stay, I just saw that your house was destroyed and you can no longer live in it, so if you don't mind, I can arrange a place for you to go."

Luo Qingchen looked at the plaque at Wuwei Escort that was blackened by the smoke and fire: "My family didn't have anything in the first place, the loss wasn't too big, and everyone was there. If Master Shang Shu has the heart, let's arrange for those families who are more miserable than us. "

Xu Hongwen didn't expect that Luo Qingchen would reject him, so he changed his mind and said: "Since I know about this, I will urge the yamen to resettle all the people, but I heard that your mother was frightened and inhaled some smoke. Not very good. If there is no timely treatment and a good place to recuperate, it will not be good if the root cause of the disease falls in the future. You are a filial child, and I also want to have a chance to make up for what my little girl did before. Why should Miss Qingchen How do you reject people thousands of miles away?"

Xu Hongwen really knows how to catch Luo Qingchen's thoughts.

Mrs. Zhang was in a daze all the time, and it was the same when she invited the doctor.

Seeing that Luo Qingchen was touched, Xu Hongwen further said that there are precious nourishing medicinal materials in Shangshu's mansion, which may not be available outside, and he could even invite an imperial doctor to treat Zhang Shi.

Even though he knew that Xu Hongwen said all this was just to get close to them, Luo Qingchen couldn't help being moved.

"How about this, you discuss it with your mother first, and I have to look around, and then discuss with the government office how to accommodate these people, and how to repair the house in the future." Xu Hongwen couldn't push Luo Qingchen into a hurry, enough was enough Leave room.

After Xu Hongwen left, Luo Qingchen was thinking in his mind, whether to use his plan to see what kind of tricks he could play, or to stick to his own principles and never let Mrs. Zhang have any further contact with Xu Hongwen.

"Oh, I didn't expect that this place would turn into charcoal in one night. However, it seems that you are a blessing in disguise, and they rushed to give you a house to live in. It's a good place near the Shangshu Mansion." With a teasing smile, Xiao Cui appeared in front of Luo Qingchen with a big paper bag in his arms.

Yesterday, he somehow came to congratulate Luo Qingchen on his housewarming, and then disappeared out of thin air. It was very strange to say, but facing such a smiling person, Luo Qingchen's heart was not so heavy.

"What a coincidence, it seems that there is no lively place without you." Luo Qingchen glanced at Xiao Cui and said.

Xiao Cui didn't mind the sarcasm in her words at all, and said: "Really? It just so happens that I can hear some key words every time, do you think I will be 'clicked' one day because I heard something I shouldn't hear?" ?”

He said it seriously, Luo Qingchen smiled lightly and shook his head: "We are all busy today, so we can't invite you to dinner."

This is to drive him away?
Xiao Cui opened the paper bag in his hand, and a steaming scent came out.

"I invite you to eat, Cai Ji's steamed stuffed bun, it tastes so good, I finally bought a basket after queuing for a long time. Hurry up, while it's hot!" Xiao Cui enthusiastically stuffed it into Luo Qingchen's hand.

Shen Lu really came here after smelling it, grabbed two with one hand and ate it, he was so hungry.

"Qingchen, it's delicious. Well, this, what's your name? My juniors haven't eaten it yet, I'll trouble you later if you can buy some more." Shen Lu was not polite, and immediately became acquainted with Xiao Cui.

Luo Qingchen didn't know Xiao Cui very well, and she was still a little wary.Unable to stop it in time, Shen Lu finished two of them in a few mouthfuls.

After finally waiting for someone to ask his name, Xiao Cui suddenly had evil thoughts in his heart, and said with a smile: "Qingchen, guess what my name is?"

Seeing that he asked such a question, Luo Qingchen must have a reason, and said indifferently: "How do I know?"

Xiao Cui seemed a little overjoyed, and was about to speak, but a slightly hasty voice came from behind: "Yes, you don't need to know his name, because he is just an irrelevant person."

Xiaotian was still dressed in green, with a veil covering his face and a graceful figure. Standing in front of the ruins destroyed by the fire, he looked even more tall and straight.

"Master Cui." Luo Qingchen was not surprised by Xiaotian's appearance.

Xiao Cui almost spit out when he heard the "Mr. Cui", do you have such a domineering friend?You are used, your name is used, and people are not allowed to justify their names.

Xiaotian groaned, and vaguely responded to Luo Qingchen's call.

"Why are you here? Didn't you want to rest in bed?" Xiao Cui stepped forward, seemingly kindly helping Xiao Tian.

The eldest son waved his hand impatiently: "Don't be hypocritical." Xiao Cui clearly wanted to laugh at Luo Qingchen for being as weak as a woman?

"Since you're sick, what are you doing here?" Luo Qingchen said lightly.

"He, I want to invite you to live in his mansion. Also, he actually asked me to buy this bun." Xiao Cui winked narrowly at Xiao Tian.

"You will die if you don't speak?" Xiaotian said coldly.

He fell into a drowsy sleep until dawn, and vaguely heard Xiao Cui talking with Uncle Zhong, saying that the area where Luo Qingchen lived suddenly caught fire in the middle of the night, and a whole house burned down, and it was unknown if there were any casualties.

So Xiaotian suddenly woke up, got up and grabbed his clothes to go out, Xiao Cui and Zhong Bo managed to persuade him.

After Xiao Cuimen went to inquire about the situation, the more he thought about it, the more wrong he became. Everything was fine yesterday, so how could there be such a big fire?He still wants to see for himself.

The bun was because he thought that Luo Qingchen and the others were afraid that they would not have a fixed place right now, so how could they care about breakfast?Ask Xiao Cui to bring it here.

But there is nothing wrong with asking Luo Qingchen to live with him.

Even he himself didn't want to live in that place, so why would he invite someone to live there?

And Xiao Cui's expression when he said this, no matter how you looked at it, it seemed that he had malicious intentions.

Xiao Cui deliberately said: "I just think that the place you live in is so big, it's empty anyway, don't waste it. But don't be afraid, people may not be interested in your place, let alone someone has already invited her to live in it." Great place."

"Who invited you to live?" Xiaotian looked at Luo Qingchen, with a bit of vigilance and inexplicable harshness in his voice.

Luo Qingchen was displeased with his seemingly caring but implicitly domineering tone, but thinking that he was ill, it was also a good idea to come to visit him, so he said lightly: "Xu Shangshu said that there is a vacant room near his mansion. , My mother was frightened last night, she is not in good health, it is more suitable for her to recuperate."

"Xu Shangshu? Xu Hongwen?" Xiaotian's tone seemed contemptuous.

Xiao Cui added in a timely manner: "He is really enthusiastic. However, Qingchen did not agree."

"Oh? Why don't you go if someone invites you?" Xiaotian seemed to feel sorry for Luo Qingchen, and his tense body began to relax.

Luo Qingchen said casually: "It's not relative, but I promise to think about it."

Xiao Tian glared at Xiao Cui, although he couldn't see his expression clearly through the veil, but Xiao Cui also knew what his expression was at this time, made a grimace, and slowly moved to Luo Qingchen's side, if this friend was angry , can be difficult to deal with.
