Tongzhuang

I was anxious about Qi Feng's matter, and I didn't pay attention to other things.It wasn't until now that I realized that the surrounding seemed to be extraordinarily quiet.In the past, when Ruige was around, he always chattered non-stop, and even talked to me about such a big event as Tongzhuang.I thought about it carefully, and remembered that she hadn't shown up before the accident in Tongzhuang.

Why didn't she come to me?Are you away from home?Even if she went out before, she would come and tell me, why was she so silent?Is she sick?

I was worried, and let the shopkeeper deduct the money for the last few months, put down my work and ran downstairs to Zhanchun.

Zhanchun Building is still full of buzz, but when those girls saw me, they seemed to have strange eyes.I went up to inquire about Ruige, but they all shook their heads without saying a word.

I was so weird, I stayed downstairs, no matter which girl came down, they all responded to my inquiry in the same way.Even Xiaomei, Ruige's personal maid, only let me go when she saw me, and don't come to see their girls again.

I was anxious: "What happened to Rui Ge?"

She turned her head and said gently: "Our girl is fine, Mr. Han can rest assured."

I was dubious, and really didn't know what was going on.If it's okay, why won't you see me?Ruige has always dared to speak and act, straight to the point, and doesn't like to play tricks; Xiaomei is also a kind-hearted girl, she won't lie to me.

When I came back sullenly, my heart that had just let go began to fluctuate again.It was so easy, Qi Feng came back from a desperate situation, what's going to happen to Rui Ge?

On this day, Ah Fu suddenly pulled me back mysteriously, "Han Chun, don't you think Miss Ruige won't come to our place for a long time?"

Why don't you think so?Not only me, but even the guests in the building were very disappointed, their faces were like flowers, and they played the pipa, and they got drunk before drinking.Now the beauties are gone, and everyone is muttering endlessly.

"Yeah, it's been a long time." I whispered.

"Do you know the reason?" I saw him raise an eyebrow, and his expression became more mysterious.

I shook my head.

He first sighed heavily, then lowered his voice, "I also found out by accident. I wanted to tell you, but I was afraid you would feel bad." He patted me on the shoulder.

I was puzzled and looked at him.

"Han Chun, in fact, you have to think about it... right? It is said that people have self-knowledge. Of course, you are a hero. You have a great reputation when you come back from Tongzhuang, but after all, you are a peerless oiran, and there are many people who admire you. Well, those princes and grandsons, none of them are a hundred times stronger than us... It's no wonder Miss Ruige..."

I looked at him blankly.

"Oh!" Ah Fu stomped anxiously, pulled me over, and whispered to me, "I saw her get on a sedan chair yesterday, and that sedan chair is so beautiful... The host is either rich or expensive!"

--------------------------------

It was night, Ruige's sedan chair was carried out from Zhanchun Tower, and I recognized the four porters as Ruige's sedan chair.Afu pulled me, and we followed quietly.

The sedan chair was carried to Lanshan Pavilion, one mile away, and stopped.Rui Ge came out from inside, motioned for the sedan chair to leave, and then walked into the pavilion.

What is she stopping here for?Want to enjoy the moon in the pavilion?Lanshan Pavilion is not a good place to enjoy the moon, it is very remote and dark, few people will come at night.

Under the faint moonlight, I saw Ruige holding her pipa in her arms.She's going to play the piano here?

The sleeve was pulled suddenly, Ah Fu lowered his voice: "Here we come!"

A sedan chair appeared in sight, and by the light of the lantern in the bearer's hand, I saw that it was indeed a very delicate sedan chair, and Ruige who got on the sedan chair was also extremely beautifully dressed.The sedan chair was lifted and continued to move forward.

After walking for a while, the sedan chair entered the north of the city. Most of the people living in that area were wealthy families, and pavilions and gardens could be seen from a distance.

It turns out that Rui Ge ignored me because of this?Did she secretly alienate me because she publicly announced that she likes me and wants to marry me, but she is too embarrassed to repent?

I smiled and shook my head.This silly girl, she was supposed to be married to a literati, a wealthy family, so as not to disgrace her talent and appearance. Now that she has a good home, I am happy for her, so how can I blame her?

Ah Fu patted me, "You don't have to feel bad, women are all promiscuous! Today you say you love this one, and tomorrow you say you are interested in that one...or else, a woman's heart is in the bottom of her heart! She is also the boss of a brothel, don't choose Do the rich choose the poor? What does she eat and drink? Where does the clothes and rouge come from? Don’t take what a woman says seriously!"

I smiled at him, and then went back together amidst his chattering comfort.

Rui Ge likes others and doesn't want to marry me, what's the matter?She still wants to hide and hide, I can't help laughing.I still find her and let her dispel her worries. I am happier than anything else that she can change from a good person to a good family.

But I still can't see her, no matter how I explain my purpose, she just refuses to see me.Finally I stopped her once she was going downstairs. "Rige!"

She ignored me and walked away.

I stopped her again and hurriedly said, "Rige! I know why you refuse to see me... Do you have someone you like? I saw it the night before..."

She suddenly trembled and her expression changed.

I hurriedly said: "You don't have to worry! What's the matter? I'm not good enough for you. I'm too happy for you to have a good family... Even if you said you want to marry me, it doesn't matter! Don't care what other people say , as long as you live well in the future, this is the most..."

Rui Ge suddenly spoke, she stared at me: "I have a good family, is it too late for you to be happy?"

"Yes!" I nodded vigorously, lest she doubt my sincerity.

She looked at me and slowly revealed a smile, that smile was very strange, I had never seen it before.She smiled, but I suddenly felt that I was not familiar with her at all.

"Rige..."

She restrained her smile: "Han Chun, I'm sorry for you, please don't come to me again in the future. You are a good person, and I will be grateful to you."

"But..." Wouldn't it be okay to talk and laugh like before?We are still friends!

She turned her back indifferently: "My future husband doesn't like me having too many contacts with other men, please forgive me."

I was embarrassed.Oh...that's right... Indeed, she was right.Men and women, I also remember it, but after I met her, she said several times "I'm not afraid of a big girl, what are you afraid of", and I forgot...

I really shouldn't, she has a family, of course she can't get close to other men, why didn't I think of it?

"Ha, I'm being abrupt," I smiled shyly, "Then when you have a wedding, I..."

She left me and walked away.

At dinner at night, other people talked and laughed, but I didn't say a word.How has this happened to me lately?Big Brother is disappointed in me, Qi Feng resents me for ignoring me, and Ruige... My friends, friends after I came to Yingzhou, just leave me one by one...

My heart was panicked, I was so suffocated, and I wanted to cry a little.

I buried my head and ate slowly, "snap", something was thrown into my bowl, and rice grains splashed all over my face.I took a closer look, a chicken leg!

Master Zheng shook his chopsticks, proudly: "My old man's accuracy is still so good."

"Of course, the incision of the chicken, duck, fish and goose that your old man has passed is not allowed?" Ah Fu finished his compliment, then turned to smile at me, "Han Chun, this is for you, see how lucky you are! Painful face!"

A Feng agreed. "That's right, isn't it just a woman, although Miss Ruige is an oiran, but people say, why don't a man have a wife!" He patted his chest, "If I were a woman, I would definitely marry you!"

I made a "poof" and almost sprayed the food in my mouth on his face.

Ah Fu blinked at me, I followed his wink and looked back, the shopkeeper stood behind me, saw me looking at him, and slapped me on the head: "You boy, lazy, playful, disrespectful to me, I'll I want to clean you up!" Two heavy objects were thrown on me.

I was beaten so badly that I looked down, but there were two strings of money, my monthly wages.

Ah Fu smiled: "Shopkeeper, I also want you to clean me up!"

The shopkeeper gave him a slap on the head: "Why are you joining in the fun! Do you think he hasn't tossed enough?"

I took the money, watched them bicker, and looked at the big chicken drumsticks in the bowl, and laughed too.Appetite improved a lot for a while.
