Chapter 83 Borrowing a Carriage
"Today...thank you Miss Shen for your kindness in giving me a ride. I will remember your kindness in my heart and will never forget it in my life."
He lowered his head and cupped his hands, and it seemed like drops of water fell on the ground and disappeared in an instant.
Shen Anan looked at him deeply, and her expression eased a little. She didn't get entangled, but was frank and straightforward. Zhang Yeyang could indeed be considered a gentleman, but it was a pity that he was burdened by family affairs.
Shen Anan felt a little regretful and said softly, "Then I wish Mr. Zhang a prosperous career and a bright future."
Zhang Yeyang nodded slightly, his whole body was in a daze, and his steps were a little unsteady.
"Tsk, I thought Miss Shen had a lot of feelings for that scholar, but now she lets go so easily."
Behind the rocks, Ling Chenyi, who was watching this side, sighed a few words, then turned his head to look at Xiao Yuan with a smile in his eyes.
It can be said that after all the clouds have cleared, the moon has appeared. This guy can finally smile.
Xiao Yuan pursed his lips lightly, and looked at the two people who were talking not far away with a clear gaze.
The fragments in his mind slowly overlapped and connected together, and he seemed to suddenly understand something.
Maybe she had never been fond of that scholar! ! ! !
Ling Chenyi stretched and said, "We have to have a good drink to celebrate when we get home tonight."
Xiao Yuan remained silent.
She wondered if he had been heading in the wrong direction all along. He wanted to love her and possess her, but perhaps he should first make up for the pain in her heart.
Even if it was just a dream, it was enough to make her feel scared.
Fortunately, the scholar did not insist, and his cold brows gradually relaxed a lot.
"Master." Qing'an hurried over and reported in a low voice, "Lord Shen sent someone to deliver the news that Lord Zhang sent a letter to the palace through Zhou Yunfeng, asking to see Concubine Ning."
"It is indeed Concubine Ning," Ling Chenyi's face, which was smiling a moment ago, suddenly turned cold and he turned to look at Xiao Yuan.
"Now that we've identified the murderer, isn't it time for revenge?"
The death of Concubine Shu has been Xiao Yuan's obsession since he was a child. He is completely immersed in the cold and sinister atmosphere and wishes he could kill the mother and son immediately.
"It's so painful to die. Sometimes it's a relief. I remember that the Zhang family's porcelain business is the best. It's hard to find a fortune. Find someone to make a fake and send it to Concubine Shen."
Xiao Yuan's tone was icy, and Qing An immediately took the order and retreated. Ling Chenyi asked, "Do you want to use the emperor to kill Concubine Ning?"
Is the emperor willing to do so?
Xiao Yuan sneered slightly, "It's just taking the opportunity to attack and kill her. Of course, I have to come in person to take revenge."
Ling Chenyi pursed his lips and returned his gaze to Shen Anan and the others not far away.
He raised his eyebrows, pointed at Yao Mei who was being held by Zhang Yeyang and said, "Did we miss something just now? Where is the show now?"
No one paid any attention to him. Xiao Yuan looked at Zhang Yeyang, who had one child in his arms and one child leaning on him. He actually curled his lips and laughed out loud. His gloating was too obvious.
"Chen Yi, go and lend him your carriage."
? ? ? ?
Ling Chenyi was confused, "What?"
Xiao Yuan glanced at him coldly, "The scholar's sister has fainted from the cold and needs a carriage."
Ling Chenyi frowned, "Isn't Miss Shen's carriage there? I..."
Under Xiao Yuan's threatening gaze, Ling Chenyi slowly stopped talking, raised his hand and called a servant over and whispered a few instructions to him.
Soon, the servant rushed out in the carriage.
Next to the carriage, Sister Yue was crying pitifully and begging Shen Anan to save Sister Yao.
Shen Anan didn't mind giving the little girl a ride back to the capital, but from what Sister Yue said, she also wanted to ride in the carriage. The carriage was so small, and if everyone got in, she wouldn't be able to walk back.
"Miss Shen, aren't you and Brother Yang friends? Just bear with it, squeeze in and give us a ride."
Sister Yue's face was full of eagerness for Sister Yao, but her eyes kept glancing into the carriage from time to time, as if she was eager to try.
The good-tempered Mo Xiang couldn't help but said, "My lady, Master Zhang has already said that my lady and your brother Yang are not friends. Besides, my lady is so precious, how can she squeeze with others?"
It’s not that she is not kind enough, but this Sister Yue’s words are really too harsh, as if her daughter owes them something.
"Mo Xiang, give them my cloak and put it on the little girl first, so that she won't get frozen." Shen Anan ordered calmly.
She really didn't like Sister Yue, but seeing that Zhang Yeyang was so frank, she didn't want to just stand by and watch her die.
Mo Xiang reluctantly handed the fox fur cloak to Sister Yue to put on Sister Yao.
So as to bring some warmth to the little girl.
Seeing that Shen Anan was about to leave like this, Sister Yue had no intention of giving them a ride, and couldn't help but say, "Miss, you are so beautiful and have a prominent family background, so what's wrong with helping us? My brother Yang will give it to you when he becomes an official in the future."
Mo Xiang was so angry that she almost laughed. How could she, a small county magistrate, say that she felt like the Jade Emperor?
"Sister Yue, that's enough." Zhang Yeyang's voice was cold and he didn't dare to look up because of shame.
"Miss Chen, thank you very much. My sister has never been out of the village and she speaks without restraint. I'm sorry." After saying this, he made way, but Sister Yue stood there and refused to move.
It is obvious that Brother Yang has something going on with this woman. If he doesn't let her recognize the situation clearly today, who knows how she will try to get close to him.
Sister Yue’s understanding of the powerful and wealthy is not very clear. She just thinks that being an official is great. Except for the royal family, the rest of the people are just dirt under her feet.
Shen Anan's eyes gradually turned cold. At this moment, the sound of a carriage came from afar and stopped in front of several people.
"Mr. Zhang, my master said he could lend you the carriage."
The servant said while sitting on the carriage.
Sister Yue turned her head and looked over when she heard the words. It was a carriage that was no less luxurious than Shen Anan's. Her eyes lit up slightly, but she immediately concealed them.
He walked to Zhang Yeyang and said, "Brother Yang, someone must know that you will be an official in the future and wants to make a good relationship with you."
Zhang Yeyang looked at the carriage with the sign of Yongning Marquis Mansion, his face turned pale and blue, and he was extremely embarrassed and ashamed.
"Sister Yue, stop talking."
That's the Yongning Marquis' Mansion, and Sister Yue is asking for humiliation by saying this.
Prince Ling could be kindhearted and could give alms, but the only thing he couldn't do was...
But obviously, Sister Yue had no such class awareness at all. Her sudden wealth made her feel uncontrollably happy and proud.
Shen Anan saw the arrogant and provocative look she gave him, which was full of criticism.
"Girl, is she mentally ill?" Mo Xiang couldn't help but say.
"Maybe." Shen Anan lowered the curtain and ignored it.
"Thank Master Ling for me. I will remember your kindness today in my heart." Looking at Yaomei's increasingly purple face, Zhang Yeyang could only accept Ling Chenyi's kindness and got on the carriage.
Sister Yue also hurriedly followed, sat in the big carriage, and looked around curiously.
"This is my first time making a carriage. This one is much more luxurious and beautiful than the ones in our town."
Zhang Yeyang lowered his head and looked at Yaomei's little face, and said calmly, "How can the carriages in the town be compared with this."
One is a landlord, the other is a royal relative, they are not even qualified to be mentioned together.
Just like him.
Zhang Yeyang raised his eyes, tilted his head to look at the swaying curtain, and did not move for a long time.
She thought he was an exception, and he was indeed so close to her, but it was all just a dream.
He felt a little resentful towards Sister Yue in his heart, but when he looked at her weather-beaten face, he couldn't get angry at all.
This is his fate, so why should he worry about others?
They were not in the same class to begin with, and the fact that they had hope was only possible because she did not despise them.
After Sister Yue finished looking at the carriage, she turned her attention to Zhang Yeyang again and spoke carefully, "Brother Yang, that girl just now, does she have feelings for you?"
Zhang Yeyang's face instantly darkened, "Sister Yue, this is the capital, you can't say nonsense and ruin the reputation of a young lady."
Sister Yue was stunned. Yang Di had never spoken to her so harshly before, but he was an official after all. Although she was unhappy, she did not show anything.
"I'm just worried. The girl is dressed so luxuriously. Is her family in business? On the way here, I heard the storyteller mention the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans. Merchants are looked down upon..."
"I was afraid that you had finally passed the exam, and she was treating you like that because of your official status..."
"Sister Yue, shut up." Zhang Yeyang's face flushed, and he was almost ashamed. .
Sister Yue was stunned by his yelling, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time. Zhang Yeyang barely suppressed his anger and said gently, "Sister, you must be careful with your words in the capital. That girl is not someone people of our status can afford to marry."
After hearing this, Sister Yue was stunned for a while, "Is it... that exaggerated?"
That girl can't be a royal relative.
She clenched her cracked hands slightly and lowered her head to hide her expression.
She felt very uncomfortable. If this was true, what should she do?
"I don't have a place to stay right now, so I can only ask you to squeeze in with me in the firewood room of the restaurant where I work as a handyman."
In this case, he would have to discuss it with the shopkeeper first.
Sister Yue was stunned again. Why was everything not what she expected?
Isn't Brother Yang an official? He has passed the exam, so why doesn't he even have a mansion? Don't opera singers all have one?
