Chapter 426 Climbing the Powerful
"I don't know what's so wonderful about it? Please tell me clearly, sir." Guihua's eyes were full of smiles, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
"This..." Chen Zhancai didn't know how to answer when asked this question.
"Sir, there's no need to be so reserved. We're not man-eating tigers or wolves. Just say whatever you want to say."
After saying that, she blinked at Chen Zhancai and smiled very charmingly.
Chen Zhancai couldn't stand this at all. It felt like a cat's claw scratching his heart, and the itch was unbearable.
His eyes were burning, and he couldn't help but say what was in his heart, "Miss, you are so beautiful. I think I have fallen in love with you at first sight. I wonder if you have a good impression of me. Can I...?"
As he spoke, he involuntarily reached out and grabbed Guihua's hand.
"How dare you! You are really taking advantage of the situation. Our young lady kindly invited you in for a cup of tea, but you are so frivolous. You really don't know etiquette." The maid Xiaozhu scolded harshly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I just admire your young lady so much. I don't have any intention of being frivolous." Chen Zhancai also felt that he was too impatient and apologized repeatedly.
Xiao Zhu snorted coldly, "I don't think you dare. You should know that my young lady is a high-ranking official in the imperial court..."
"Stop talking, Xiaozhu." Before Xiaozhu could finish her words, Guihua hurriedly shouted, "I've told you so many times, you have to keep a low profile and never tell anyone about your home."
"Yes, miss, I know I was wrong." Xiao Zhu lowered her head and dared not say another word.
The speaker may not have meant it, but the listener may have taken it seriously. When Chen Zhan heard the word "chaozhong", he was immediately shocked.
Oh my god! This is not just a romantic encounter, this is the perfect opportunity I've been dreaming of!
If he could really get close to such a powerful person, wouldn't he be able to rise to prominence and prosper like a king?
In order to verify his guess, he smiled and said tentatively, "I didn't expect that there are people in the young lady's family who are officials in the court."
Guihua didn't answer directly, but nodded and smiled, "Master Chen, my family has very strict upbringing. If it weren't for your handsome appearance, I would never dare to let you in without permission. If my father found out, he would definitely beat and scold me. Xiaozhu is also very protective of her master, so her words may have been offensive. Please don't blame her."
"No, it won't."
At this moment, Chen Zhancai was so excited that he almost died.
"Plant osmanthus in front of the door, and you will meet noble people when you go out."
Doesn’t this imply that the noble person is right before your eyes?
The moment to change his destiny has finally arrived. Chen Zhancai was so excited that he couldn't help but look at Guihua with deep affection.
Their eyes met, and Guihua did not hide her eyes and blinked at him lovingly.
He was testing, and she was testing too.
In this way, the two of them started chatting with each other.
As the saying goes, the man has feelings and the woman has intentions, dry wood meets fire, glue meets lacquer, and the two hit it off.
Watching the beauty's every move, every frown and smile, Chen Zhancai was a little distracted and unable to concentrate. He couldn't help but hold Guihua's small tender hand.
"Miss, I finally found you!"
"Don't be impatient, young master." Guihua gently pulled her hand away, her face flushed slightly, and she became shy. She instructed the maid beside her, "Xiaozhu, quickly prepare some wine and food. I want to drink with you, young master."
"Miss, you forgot that the servants in the kitchen are away today because of something."
"Yeah, how could I have forgotten about this?" Guihua lowered her head and thought for a while, "Then hurry up and go to the restaurant and order a good banquet."
Xiao Zhu frowned slightly and scolded, "My dear lady, you really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are until you manage the household. Have you forgotten that the housekeeper hasn't come back yet, how can I afford to book a banquet?"
"Oh, it's true. Look at my memory. I was so happy that I forgot such an important thing."
After saying this, Guihua sighed softly, shook her head with pretended regret, and looked at Chen Zhancai.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen. I wanted to have a drink with you, but the housekeeper went out for something and hasn't come back yet. It's really a disappointment. I won't keep you here."
"No, no, no, it's not a disappointment at all." Chen Zhancai was like a greedy cat that smelled fish. He wouldn't give up easily. He quickly said, "Since it's not convenient for Miss to go home, you can come with me to Longxing Inn for a chat. I will definitely make Miss unforgettable."
Before Guihua could respond, the maid Xiaozhu was unwilling to speak. "You are so shameless. My young lady is a princess. How can she go to such a filthy place with you? If someone finds out, how can she face others?"
"Yes, yes, this is indeed indecent." Chen Zhancai was unwilling to give up. How could he easily miss such a rare opportunity?
You must rack your brains and make sure to win.
Once the matter is settled, and he becomes related to this family, his life will be prosperous for the rest of his life...
Seeing Chen Zhancai lowering his head and saying nothing, Guihua covered her face and smiled softly, "Mr. Chen, since this is not elegant, you should go back early!"
"No hurry, no hurry. I really can't bear to leave you, miss."
"Yes, I am reluctant to let you go, but unfortunately the weather is not good. Let's meet again in a few days!" After Guihua said this, she stared at Chen Zhancai, as if she wanted to draw his soul out.
Chen Zhancai swallowed his saliva and almost broke his pants. He felt like he was about to burst.
He quickly closed his eyes and let out a long breath, trying his best to control his restless desire, fearing that he would do something beastly on the spot.
While he was holding his breath and concentrating, he heard the voice of his maid Xiaozhu.
"You look so well-dressed, but why are you so stubborn?"
Chen Zhancai heard the hidden meaning and opened his eyes suddenly.
"I don't know what I did wrong, please tell me clearly."
"Look at you, you're such a fool! If you want to have a toast with my lady, why don't you be more generous?"
A word awakens the dreamer.
Chen Zhancai nodded vigorously, "Yes, why didn't I think of this method? How rude of me."
As he spoke, he took out two taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Zhu, "Miss, please come back quickly to buy some wine and food."
Xiao Zhu curled her lips in disdain and looked up, "Young Master, you are really generous. You can even afford such a small amount of money."
Chen Zhancai was stunned for a moment, and quickly took out another handful of silver, "Is this enough?"
"You're such a boring person! My young lady usually spends thirty or fifty taels of silver on a meal, and this little money isn't even enough for a drink. If you're reluctant to spend money, put it away quickly and stop embarrassing yourself here. Aren't you ashamed?"
"I'm willing to give it up, why wouldn't I be willing to give it up?" Chen Zhancai's mind was already filled with lust, and he couldn't wait to raise a toast with the Miss Guihua in front of him. When the passion was strong, everything would come naturally.
He did not bother to think about anything else, and took out the only forty taels of silver he had, and did not forget to brag about it.
"I was born in a hurry and only brought these small change with me. I'd like to trouble you to quickly prepare some wine and food."
"Okay, then you can talk to my lady for a while, I will be back soon." Xiao Zhu picked up the silver and turned away with a smile.
