No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 45 The blessing bell rings again
"Aunt Zhen asked me to come."

Ouyang Rong still had half a zongzi stuffed in his mouth, he looked up blankly at the girl with pursed lips who blocked his sunlight.

Just now, the younger junior sister went directly to the stage and walked in front of him, and she frowned and was puzzled by the words that came out of nowhere.

What do you mean, you didn't want to come to him yourself, but someone else forced you?

In addition, the younger junior sister is indeed quite tall, but she just speaks a bit aggressively and likes to contradict her senior brother.

The pair of long legs in front of him, slim and tall, instantly blocked his entire field of vision, especially when looking up from below, he could hardly see her arrogant little face... This is the blinding pavilion, big There is a fake pavilion on the hillside of the lonely mountain. How can this pavilion be so wrong, it can block your eyes.

A certain elder brother put down his chopsticks, stood up, and the first sentence was: "Salty rice dumplings, or sweet rice dumplings?"

Xie Lingjiang turned his head away from him, staring at the dragon boats competing on the river, curled his lips:
"I have a lot of zongzi to eat. I just came to give a message for Aunt Zhen..."

After a pause, Yu Guang noticed that someone had already immersed himself in peeling the rice dumplings without saying a word, she immediately said: "Salty rice dumplings, dipped in sugar."

But after finishing speaking, this noble daughter of the Xie family immediately regretted it again, and a look of annoyance flashed across her little face.

It seems to hate iron but not steel.

Ouyang Rong was lowering his head and didn't see this, his hands trembled after hearing the words.

What kind of cult is this?If dipped in sugar, is it considered salty rice dumpling or sweet rice dumpling?
Ouyang Rong complained silently, handed the zongzi to Xie Lingjiang, and turned to call the guy beside him to get some sugar.

After the guy beside him left, only Ouyang Rong and Xie Lingjiang were left, and the atmosphere was a bit cold for a while.

After the last quarrel, we haven't seen each other for many days.

Xie Lingjiang's men's attire today is very eye-catching. He is dressed in white clothes like a jade gentleman, but he is wearing a vermilion satin belt, which shows his thin waist. The collar and cuffs of the inner lining are also vermilion.

A touch of vermilion embellishes a white dress, and the junior sister knows how to match it.

Ouyang Rong withdrew his eyes, and spoke first: "What did my aunt ask my junior sister to bring?"

Xie Lingjiang unconsciously poked the little brown salty rice dumpling in the bowl with the chopsticks:
"Your aunt called you to pick out the maidservant."

"Choose a maid?"

She nodded and explained:
"Early in the morning, Aunt Zhen took me shopping, saying that May [-]th is very lively. There are many foreign merchants who sell slaves in the horse shop at Xishikou. You are a seventh-rank official, and there is no maidservant in the room. It is unreasonable. She will give it to you." You pick a personal maid.

"When I got to the place, I found that there were too many choices, dazzling, there were Gao Liji, Silla maids, Bodhisattvas, Dongying slaves, and blonde bearded girls from the Western Regions... I just don't know which one you like, and I just don't want to go shopping Aunt Zhen entrusted me to bring the message, so that you can pick it yourself after you finish your work."

Ouyang Rong hesitated to speak.

Xie Lingjiang's complexion was as usual, he lowered his head and bit the tip of the rice dumpling with a small mouthful, and suddenly said:
"I know what you're thinking. When I was young, I didn't like this kind of thing that compares people to animals, but have you ever thought about it, instead of keeping them with black-hearted Hu merchants, and finally being bought by the evil lord? Why don’t you go and redeem them, treat them better, do your best, and even send them home if you have the chance.”

Ouyang Rong was silent.Although there is no harm if there is no business, but the situation in Dazhou is in short supply... It is not that he, a mere seventh-rank county magistrate, can reverse it.

After a while, the clerk took back the sugar, and Ouyang Rong handed it to Xie Lingjiang, wanting to speak. At this moment, a short young man trotted up from the audience, approaching him very familiarly:

"Hey, Sister Ling Jiang, you also come to see the dragon boat and eat rice dumplings!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Caozhi immediately turned his head, stared at Ouyang Rong, and said in surprise: "This is... the county magistrate?! Long time! Long time!"

The short young man had a sad expression of having admired his name for a long time and hated seeing it too late.

Ouyang Rong raised his eyebrows, looked at the little junior sister who was frowning slightly, and bowed his hands solemnly: "May I ask your surname..."

"I'm the one who fucked you. Wang's surname is Wang, that old-fashioned Langya Wang family, who is a family friend with Sister Ling Jiang's family."

Ouyang Rong suddenly realized: "So it's brother Cao, disrespect and disrespect."

"It's my younger brother who has admired the county magistrate's name for a long time, and has never been able to ask for an interview. I heard that the county magistrate of Longcheng loves the people like a son, and he is righteous. Today, seeing him is not the same! He is even more heroic than I imagined!"

"Wherever you are, a heroic appearance is fine, and vigorous hair is not considered... Brother Cao is as good as his name is, a dragon and a phoenix among people. You are a guest from afar, please sit down! Do you want salty rice dumplings or sweet rice dumplings? Do you want white sugar? "

"It must be sweet rice dumplings! What, white sugar? Who is a decent person to eat rice dumplings with sugar? Do you dip them?"

"I don't dip, what about you?"

"No dip."

"Dipping sugar is a vain sweet that has no soul," someone sighs.

"..." Xie Lingjiang.

You... Xie Lingjiang looked at the two acquaintances with a smile and angrily. Before she had time to introduce, the two met eyes, and directly expelled her from the Zongji... Well, you are If you don’t dip a little in sugar, you dip a little in your brains.

"Dipping salty rice dumplings in sugar is still called..." Wang Caozhi was in high spirits, and wanted to say more, but the next second, his quick-witted desire to survive made him catch a glimpse of the sugar bowl in the hands of the expressionless Xie family sister next to him. , he said to Ouyang Rong with a straight face:

"Master County Magistrate, I think dipping salty rice dumpling in sugar is a wise choice!"

Ouyang Rong nodded with a smile, Xie Lingjiang couldn't help but said: "Wang Caozhi, aren't you busy cooking rice, and you still have time for the Dragon Boat Festival?"

Wang Caozhi scratched his head:

"Hey, my little brother is just drinking some sugar water with those big grain merchants behind their asses. How dare they fry? Sister Xie thinks too highly of me hahaha."

He regretted telling her directly when he first met last time that he came to Longcheng to sell food. He didn't expect this sister of the Xie family to be so serious, and she turned cold after hearing it...

The shopkeeper of Qingliangzhai glanced at Ouyang Rong from the corner of his eye. The latter looked calm, lifeless, and even looked a little stupid, peeling the zong leaves harmlessly to humans and animals.

This Ouyang Lianghan looks like the outside rumors, he is a gentleman, a nerd, yes, otherwise, this noble lady of the Xie family would not have such a close relationship with a man with a foreign surname, she must have matched her personality. Looking at it this way, she turned out to be a nerd It's pretty good too... Wang Caozhi laughed heartily and shook his head.

He sighed:
"County magistrate... Forget it, we are all familiar with Sister Ling Jiang, so let my younger brother have the courage to call Brother Lianghan."

"Okay, whatever." Ouyang nodded kindly.

But Yan Liulang, who was not far behind, heard Wang Caozhi's words, but frowned... No matter how big or small, how dare a profiteer who buys and sells to call Mingfu a brother?The guts are fat enough.

Wang Caozhi smiled even wider:
"Brother Lianghan, my little brother heard that Longcheng was hit by floods, and the people were short of food, so they brought some food here and tried to do their best.

"Brother Lianghan must have withdrawn the price limit order a few days ago because he was worried about the lack of food and attracted more grain merchants to Dragon City, but who would think of the price of food now...

"Hey, I didn't expect to be lifted so high by those unscrupulous seniors in the same industry. I want to help but my arms can't twist my thighs...Brother Lianghan, otherwise, in the past few days, I will go to unite several people who also can't stand it." Conscientious grain merchants, let’s go to the south of the city to set up a porridge shed to give out porridge, Brother Lianghan will open it and cut the ribbons, what do you think?”

The young county magistrate looked a little disappointed. He looked at Wang Caozhi for a while, his eyes were moved, he hesitated to speak, and finally sighed. He just patted the shoulder of this conscientious and responsible young grain merchant, as if everything was not in the words. .

"Hey, I'm a guest from afar, please sit down." Ouyang Rong repeated.

Wang Caozhi smiled brightly, and waved his hand, "Let's not bother you for now, there are still friends down there, Lingjie Jiang, Brother Lianghan, let's get together some other day, little brother treats you."

Xie Lingjiang didn't nod or speak much throughout the whole process. Together with Ouyang Rong, she watched the short young man leave.

There was a moment of silence between the two.

"Your younger brother is quite cute." He praised.

"I don't even care." She bit her lower lip lightly.

Ouyang Rong glanced at the sky, thought for a while, and then turned his head and said, "Why don't you tell him, junior sister, to let him leave Dragon City as soon as possible."

Xie Lingjiang looked apologetic, "I'm sorry, I can only suppress Xie's firms from coming, Wang's side..."

Ouyang Rong shook his head and interrupted: "No, let him run quickly."

"..."

A certain lady of the Xie family was stunned, turned her head, and stared at Ouyang Rong for a while.

At a certain moment, the corners of the lips that liked to be bitten lightly, suddenly curled up.

"Don't go."

She smiled, looking at him with bright eyes.

"Why, aren't you a family friend?"

"Not familiar with him."

"Then who do you know well..." The casual person paused, and asked instead: "Aren't you angry with senior brother now?"

"Stay alive."

"Then today's business, I'll take you to a place."

"Where?"

"A certain heroine of justice, a place where she was sad when she first went, but happy when she left."

"Women...refer to me?" Xie Lingjiang wrinkled his nose, "No, I am a staff member with both civil and military skills, not a woman who can only do things."

"Then... Mistress?"

"Hold~" She lifted her chin and responded crisply.

Ouyang Rong smiled, remembering something that was delayed just now, and said again:
"The master will help me get rid of my aunt first, and tell her that I'm done before going over."

"Leave it to me." Xie Lingjiang nodded.

Ouyang Rong watched her leaving back, and whispered: "It's time to choose a cheaper maid."

As soon as the words fell, Ouyang Rong trembled as if he had been electrocuted, and heard the trembling of an ancient clock in his ear!

"This……"

He immediately sat back to his original position as if nothing had happened, but his buried face was full of astonishment.

Because in the merit tower of the mind, the eternally silent blessing clock is trembling!

A brand new blessing.

　Two more!
