The moon comes to take pictures

As the sun went down, Zhang Shenxiu went to Zhongyibo's residence.It was also because of the changes in Nanjing that Yuan Junyu had no intention of embarrassing him, and all the ways of hospitality were simple.

As soon as he entered the door, the uncle's mansion changed drastically. In the past, there was an old eunuch who was in charge of accounts. Zhang Shenxiu remembered that he was very kind. , with a cautious expression, and avoided it without saying a word.

When they met, Yuan Junyu handed him a paper bag, which was so thin that he didn't know what it contained.

"The title deed." Seeing that he was puzzled, Yuan Jun said jadedly.

Zhang Shenxiu immediately had an ominous premonition: "What is this for?"

"I asked someone to set up the mansion in Guangfu. You take Liu Jiao there." Yuan Junyu held a cup of tea and looked at him condescendingly. Out of trust in his character, he added: " Don't stay too long along the way, if he wants to make trouble, you just teach him a lesson and don't make him make trouble."

Zhang Shenxiu didn't dare to ask why, but carefully studied the land deed.

Yuan Junyu showed a resolute look: "I asked you to come here today, don't tell anyone, including your friends. Even if Xie Yan asks, you must not reveal anything."

Zhang Shenxiu knew that Yuan Junyu didn't like Xie Yan very much. There might be some subtle reasons for this, but one yard counts for one yard. It wasn't that something happened. Yuan Junyu definitely wouldn't suddenly ask him to go thousands of miles away. Hedging.

He tentatively asked, "My lord, what happened?"

Yuan Junyu paused, but did not answer, just said: "After three days, you just said that you are going back to your hometown. If you don't have a letter from me, don't go back to Nanjing."

Zhang Shenxiu was uncommonly stubborn and refused to agree. She looked deeply at the land deed and said for a long time, "I dare not accept it."

It was the sound of buckling a teacup, Yuan Junyu sneered: "Give you three points of color, how dare you open a dyeing workshop?"

Both of Zhang Shenxiu's legs were shaking, and she braced her neck: "Caomin can't bear it. If something happens along the way, I'm not prepared at all. It would be worse."

After a long time, Yuan Junyu let go: "Nanjing is going to change, Xie Yan has Chang Xi's backing, but you—" Yuan Junyu didn't want to say it clearly, and said half-truth, "I'm afraid you can't protect yourself. I know that Liu Jiao listens to you, if you ask him to leave you at this time, he will definitely not want to, it's a small favor if you don't accept me, don't kill him. If that's the case, it's better to cut it off as soon as possible."

Speaking of Liu Jiao, Zhang Shenxiu seemed to be pinched at the gate of his life, his momentum just plummeted, and he agreed in a daze, and when he walked out from the corner gate, he was still thinking about how to mention this to Liu Jiao.

As soon as he got home, Liu Jiao set up a cage of plain gauze book lamps under the patio, with his bare feet dangling in the autumn wind, he slowly turned the pages of the book facing the lamplight.Seeing that Zhang Shenxiu had returned, Liu Jiao threw the book away, ran across the Begonia tiles barefoot, raised his arms and hung them on his body, and asked a series of questions: "Where did you go, did you arrive home at this time? I want you to inquire about the Ning family Did you ask about it? How is the second master now? Has the master helped you?"

Zhang Shenxiu smiled wearily, carried him into the study, found a piece of white silk, and wiped his feet in a good-tempered manner: "The shop is busy, I'll ask someone to ask tomorrow."

"Recently you've always been perfunctory to me." Liu Jiao was not very happy, he has always been like this, and his emotions are not hidden in his heart.

Here it is again, Zhang Shenxiu was tired of coaxing him to be happy, she pinched her brows and said, "Why are you always so careless?"

"So you think I'm annoying?" Liu Jiao stepped on the ground on the soles of his feet that had just been wiped clean, and gave him a sad look: "Others say that they will be perfunctory if their hearts are not here."

Zhang Shenxiu held his hand and didn't speak.

For a long time, Liu Jiao shyly shook back: "I know you are tired, let's recharge your energy tomorrow, let's talk about it."

After saying these words, Zhang Shenxiu felt ashamed of him again, she smiled, and the two of them put their heads together for a while. "Have you had dinner yet?" Liu Jiao replied that he had already eaten. Zhang Shenxiu ran around the city this day, so he was hungry when he returned home. Thinking that there should be some snacks and dried fruits left in the room, he said : "I'm going to bring some candied fruit. I just got the character book of the new edition of Hong Li Ji two days ago. Let's take a look later?"

Liu Jiao looked at him, thinking that everything is fine, and only asked him to bring it back quickly.

Zhang Shenxiu opened the door and went out, picked out a few items in the room, and when he returned, he ran into a servant returning from outside.

"Master, I just got the letter."

"who?"

"I don't know, I just said it was for the master. I took it to the study just now, and Master Liu took it away."

Zhang Shenxiu should be on the lookout for a letter coming in at this time, but he thought about reading the booklet of Hong Li Ji with Liu Jiao in his heart, so he walked back quickly, and as soon as he put down the tray when he entered the door, he realized something was wrong.

The way Liu Jiao looked at him was so alienated, as if she was looking at another person.

He had an opened letter in his hand, Zhang Shenxiu thought of what the servant said just now, and frowned slightly: "Have you read my letter?"

Liu Jiao should have covered it up, but the outraged anger burned his sanity. He held up the letter paper in front of Zhang Shenxiu, trembling his lips, and asked, "What is this?"

When Zhang Shenxiu saw the handwriting, he knew it was over.Sure enough, the next moment Liu Jiao's tears fell, his face was pale: "Didn't you say that those people are business friends?"

"you listen to me--"

Liu Jiao took a step back: "Didn't you say that you hate Japanese pirates the most?"

Zhang Shenxiu remained silent, trying to harden her heart several times and snatch the letter, but what was the use of it, Liu Jiao, who should have read it, had already read it.The matter has come to this point, he can't hide it at all.

"You lied to me that time in Zhoushan, didn't you? Those pirates who hijacked the ship came to look for you."

Zhang Shenxiu didn't dare to raise her head, her soul seemed to have left her body, and her chest felt numb and tingling.

The candle light suddenly dimmed, and at that moment, something seemed to grow in Zhang Shenxiu's heart, dazed and puzzled, as if Xie Yan's words sounded in his ears: "You did this for him."

Who are you doing all this for?Thinking of it, Zhang Shenxiu couldn't stop feeling wronged.

"My father and mother were fishing by the sea, and they were killed by these people, and so were the people in the village." The tears couldn't stop, and Liu Jiao wiped his eyes fiercely: "These people are outrageous, how can you Is it hurtful to follow?"

This is not hurtful, Zhang Shenxiu shouted silently from the bottom of her heart, it is because I love you so much, because I love you, I want to give you all the gold, silver and treasure in this world, why don't you accept this kindness?

Liu Jiao patted the page on him, and yelled angrily, "Speak up!"

"..."

"...It's not all for you."

Liu Jiao was stunned, her fists clenched and then loosened.

"I don't do this. What do you eat and wear? Can you afford to hire so many servants every day? Can you afford to support these family workers? Can you afford to live in such a big mansion?" Zhang Shenxiu's tone became higher and higher, suddenly When it reached the top, it almost roared out: "The gold, silver, jade, and emeralds I throw for you are all blown by the strong wind and come down from the sky? I do this, but you don't understand—"

Liu Jiao looked at him in disbelief, as if he was looking at a crazy person. It took him a long time to understand, arched his shoulders, and clenched his fists tightly: "Okay, okay...I will pay you back, all of it!"

With tears streaming down his face, he began to desperately untie his clothes, took off his outer shirt, kicked off the two shoes he had just put on, took off his socks, and piled them all together, leaving only a slightly worn middle coat.After thinking for a long time, he still pulled out the hairpin on his head, his shiny hair fell down, and the jade hairpin was also thrown into the pile of clothes.

"It's all yours, only this body is bought by my master." Liu Jiao wept and choked up, probably because she couldn't bear it, and looked at Zhang Shenxiu's disheveled face several times before wiping away her tears. out the door.
