Chapter 76 Grabbing business
"Shouldn't I come?" Xu Xian asked back: "Isn't the little lady waiting for me if she doesn't rest so late? The last time she came was today last month."
Xu Xian guessed right. Fu Liying was waiting for him on purpose today. She couldn't help but blush when she was told something important, and she complained: "Speak lower, there are others around you."
"Who! Gillian?"
Seeing Xu Xian's panicked look, Fu Liying smiled softly and charmingly, "Inside are Xiaodong and my eighth sister. They are already asleep. Gillian went to Luoyang and may not be able to come back until the next year. You are not even afraid of Uncle Niu.
Why are you afraid of Gillian?"
"I have to be afraid. If she really relies on me, then I will waste my whole life." Xu Xian took the small baggage off his shoulder and handed it to Fu Liying, "This is this month's tea!"
"Thank you so much!" Fu Liying reached out and took the hot water that had been prepared in advance from the edge of the brazier, and made Xu Xian a bowl of tea. "The water is a little cold, so just drink it."
Xu Xian reached out and took the small one and took a sip, "It's okay, but the tea bowl is not as fragrant as last time."
Fu Liying gave him a big roll of her eyes, "No, the makeup sister Gillian uses is much heavier than mine." Seeing Xu Xian's confusion, she added: "She usually uses this tea bowl when she comes to my place, and she specially left it here today.
For your use."
"No wonder, it tastes terrible."
Seeing Xu Xian's deflated appearance, Fu Liying wanted to laugh. She sat back at the desk, quietly watched Xu Xian finish the tea and said, "Du Tou, have you written any good lyrics recently?"
Xu Xian put down the tea bowl and said, "The young lady asks me to compose music and lyrics every time we meet. Even if I have a lot of talent, sooner or later I will run out of it."
"It's snowing heavily today. Wouldn't it be a pity if I didn't write a song to cheer you up?"
"There are no lyrics, but there is a poem. Listen carefully, little lady." Xu Xian cleared his throat and said softly: "There is a general image on the river, and a black cage on the well. The yellow dog is white, and the white dog is swollen. This song is suitable for the occasion.
?”
Fu Liying shook her head dissatisfiedly, "This is obviously a poem written by Zhang Zhang from the Tang Dynasty. Don't fool me by thinking that I am an ignorant woman."
"Oh? Already have it?"
Fu Liying teased with a smile on her lips: "Isn't it true that you have already exhausted your talents? Or you are just plagiarizing from others."
How could he show timidity in front of the beauty? Xu Xian pretended to be arrogant and said: "How dare you underestimate me? Let me think about it!"
Xu Xian held his chin and walked slowly around the room, frowning and thinking hard. There really weren't many poems about snow in his stomach. Fu Liying didn't rush her and just waited quietly. After a long time, she heard Xu Xian say: "Yes, little lady."
Listen carefully. Wu Ding fights against Yun Ni with his sword and takes the emperor's territory under the Tianhe River. After defeating three million jade dragons, their defeated scales and armor are flying all over the sky."
After hearing this, Fu Liying slapped the table, "Wonderful! Excellent!"
Xu Xian cupped his hands and begged: "Little lady, please keep your voice down, don't wake up the people inside."
"I thought you weren't afraid!" Fu Liying snorted, "I couldn't hold it back for a moment. This poem is really well written, and it has the same tune as the previous one. Although they are both about snow, there is no word for snow.
.
But this one is majestic and majestic. Compared with that limerick, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground. The little girl has really convinced Du Tou and will never question Du Tou Cai Xue again."
"Young lady who pays lip service but doesn't live up to her words, doesn't she have real luck?"
"What kind of lottery..." Fu Liying is a very smart woman. She knew what Xu Xian meant as soon as she said the words, "You are scorning me again!"
Xu Xian's whole body felt hot when he heard this coquettish cry, and he wished he could hold her in his arms and ravage her fiercely. However, Fu Liying's expression quickly returned to normal. She stood up, picked up the teapot, and filled the tea bowl again, but the tea was already cold.
She brought it to Xu Xian and said, "Just think of this cup of leftover tea as the gift I give you. You really don't want to come back after you finish it."
He never thought that she would suddenly say this. Xu Xian was shocked and explained, "Why is this! Don't you understand what Xu is thinking?"
Fu Liying looked back at Xu Xian's eyes and said: "It is because I understand that I don't want to waste our time and engage in unnecessary entanglements. It is a blessing for me to get to know Du Tou. I will also remember the three poems Du Tou gave me."
"I will find a matchmaker to come to my house tomorrow to propose marriage."
Fu Liying shook her head slightly with helplessness on her face, "It's useless, you can't get in at all. Father will never agree."
Seeing her expression, Xu Xian felt a little happy in his heart, and said with relief: "During the Eastern Campaign to quell the rebellion, the emperor made a detour to Chanzhou when he came. I was lucky enough to meet Mrs. Guo."
"You are the imperial guard beside the emperor. Why is it strange to see Sixth Sister?"
"The strange thing is that Mrs. Guo asked me if I was married!" Xu Xian explained the situation in detail.
Fu Liying said in surprise: "The popsicles are also your business?"
"Oh, that's not the point. It seems that Mrs. Guo wants to act as a matchmaker for me. If my prediction is correct, that person will be you."
"Sixth sister did say that she wanted to meet her husband in Chanzhou, but even if she had this intention, it was of no use. At the beginning, she couldn't even decide on her own marriage. Even if she fell in love with you, she still had to agree with her father. She helped
Not ours."
When we heard these two words, Xu Xian's heart warmed up, and he subconsciously grabbed Fu Liying's hand. He felt that the hand was cold and soft. Fu Liying struggled at first, but there was no obscene look on Xu Xian's face.
He was holding it, but his chest was beating like a drum.
"If Mrs. Guo becomes the queen, things will be different. Even your father will have to give her some face."
"Sixth sister will become the queen?" The melancholy in Fu Liying's eyes dissipated a little, and a hint of joy appeared in the corner of her mouth. "This is possible, but I don't know how long it will take."
Xu Xian patted her hand and said, "Believe me, it won't be long!"
The Later Zhou Dynasty only lasted a few years, and Guo Wei had been in power for two years. He probably didn't have much time left, and Chai Rong was not far away from ascending to the throne.
After spending a total of an hour with Fu Liying, Xu Xian sneaked out of Fu's house while the snow was still falling. Otherwise, the guards in the house would find the footprints tomorrow, and he might not be able to go there in the future.
Fu Liying showed her feelings today, but Fu Liying did not refuse, which made Xu Xian feel a stone fall in his heart. He went home and had a good sleep, and did not get up until daybreak.
Just as she put on her clothes, she heard a banging sound on the door. Xiaocan immediately came out of the kitchen to open the door. Then she saw a man wrapped like a mummy rushing into the yard. When he saw Xu Xian, he rushed over and mouthed
He said vaguely: "Everyone, something big has happened to everyone!"
Xu Xian was startled, "Who the hell are you?" The other person had a bruised nose, swollen face, and slurred speech. Xu Xian really couldn't recognize who it was.
"I'm Guo Ji!"
Xu Xian was shocked, "Guo Ji? How did you get hurt like this? Who hit you!"
