Chapter 305: Being Provoked
After all, we have lived together for several months, staying in the same room every day and night, and we are husband and wife. How could she not have him in her heart?
Now, he heard with his own ears what Master Lin said about marrying Jiang Lianzhu, and Jiang Lianzhu's attitude and temper towards him were quite bad, which made him angry.
He can remain calm as a mountain towards others, but when he meets Jiang Lianzhu, his emotions are always a little out of control.
Jiang Lianzhu mocked him, "Yes, Master Lin and I are already in love. We've already set a wedding date. Once he's cured, we'll get married. What's the problem? He's not any less beautiful than you, and he doesn't mind me being divorced and having three children. The Lin family is wealthy and powerful, so they won't covet my property. He's a businessman and a tough guy, but they won't bring us into a life of mixed emotions. He's a perfect match for me, so what's the problem? He's ten times better than some people, and some people don't even know what's going on!"
The firepower was full, spraying Liao Jiu in the face.
Liao Jiu's expression was gloomy. "Are you serious?"
"It's absolutely true. If I'm in a good mood, when Master Lin and I get married, I might even send you an invitation and invite you to our wedding."
Liao Jiu stared at Jiang Lianzhu, unable to suppress his anger.
After a while, he said coldly, "Okay, I was abrupt."
After saying that, he stood up and pushed the door open.
Jiang Lianzhu did not stop him. She watched his determined figure disappear into the night. For a moment, she wanted to call him, but she held back.
No men, better!
What man do you want!
Liao Jiu is not a good match for her!
What's the point of having such a scumbag?
Get out of here!
It was dark at night. Erya saw it and came over to ask, "Aunt Jiang, wasn't this patient supposed to stay in our clinic? Why did he leave again?"
"Oh, I treated him, and when he was cured, he passed away."
Arya understood, "Then I'll go close the door."
***
A flower shop in the capital.
Business is booming, with people coming and going and talking happily.
The guests were of all kinds, including disciples from aristocratic families, celebrities from the capital, and wealthy businessmen, all gathered together.
The girls in the alley are also the most beautiful and talented in the capital.
There is a constant stream of business every day, and the entire building, including several floors, is packed.
Suddenly, a group of soldiers came in, disrupting the colorful scene before their eyes, and everyone was stunned.
The flower shop quickly came out to greet them, "I wonder what brings you all here so suddenly, what's the matter?"
The officers and soldiers were wearing the uniforms of the Imperial Guard and were the emperor's personal guards. No one dared to be disrespectful.
The leading officer said, "I'm here to ask Mama-san a question. It won't bother you. Please continue as you please."
The florist's mother suddenly smiled charmingly, "Please sit down in the VIP room and have some tea. Oh, this is really shocking! If you want to ask someone, there's no need to come to our shop in person. Just send someone to call me over, and you can ask whatever you want..."
A few soldiers were left in the lobby to watch, and the captain of the guards followed the flower shop mother into the VIP room.
The chief guard asked first, "Is there a woman named Li Niang here?"
The flower shop mother laughed sweetly and said, "Li Niang! This name is too common. We have had several Li Niangs here before. I wonder which Li Niang you are talking about, sir."
The guard took out a picture of a woman and asked, "Have you ever seen this woman?"
The portrait is rather abstract, and one can vaguely make out that it is a prostitute with a slim figure and a smiling face.
But the woman has a cinnabar mole at the corner of her mouth, which looks very distinctive.
The woman working in the flower shop thought hard and said, "I seem to have some impression of someone with a mole at the corner of her mouth and a name called Li Niang. Sir, are you asking about a girl or a woman? I've seen a woman named Li Niang with a mole at the corner of her mouth. She did the dirty work of sweeping and cleaning in our workshop..."
The chief guard was delighted and said, "Take us to see it."
The flower shop mother was stunned. "You guys are looking for a maid too. There are many girls in our shop who are prettier than Li Niang in the painting. Aren't they more attractive than a maid?"
The head guard's face darkened. "Stop talking nonsense and take us there. This is a fugitive with his entire clan on the brink of extermination. If this is really her, and you let her escape, you will all be in trouble."
The flower shop mother was frightened and dared not talk anymore. She quickly took people to the backyard.
I looked around but couldn't find anyone.
Grabbing the other stewards, he asked, "Where is that old woman named Li Niang?"
"Oh, she said her nephew, who has become an official, has returned and is taking her back to his hometown to enjoy a good life. She just quit her job and left without even asking for her salary."
The captain of the guards asked hurriedly, "When did it happen? Where did she go? Where does she live?"
"Just now! I don't know where she lives, but she's an old widow, around 40 or 50 years old. I felt sorry for her, so I let her do the chores here..."
The captain of the guards was stunned. Forty or fifty years old?
"Where did the person go?" We can't let him go either. We should catch up with him first, just in case we find some clues.
The steward pointed in a direction and said, "He left through the back door. He shouldn't have gone far..."
"Chase!!"
The captain of the guards waved his hand, snorted coldly, and led his men to chase after him.
The flower shop mother hurried out to see what was going on.
The manager was left behind, completely confused. He shook his head and went back to his own work.
After they left, an old woman with a hunched back walked into a dark corner and observed secretly.
Then, in an empty darkroom, she took off her disguise and returned to the image of a young woman. She no longer walked with a hunched back. She was agile and hurried to the flower shop mother's room, stole some silver and valuables, and escaped through the window the same way she had come.
Heading straight for the city gate...
I can't stay in the capital anymore.
***
Liao Jiu rode on a big eagle and traveled all night.
When the cold wind blew, I regretted it halfway.
If he went back and apologized to Jiang Lianzhu to show his feelings, he would feel embarrassed.
He didn't believe that Jiang Lianzhu would marry the young master of the Lin family.
Jiang was just trying to drive him away with words.
He was fooled.
Got angry.
Later I thought that Jiang Lianzhu was also angry. Going back would only make things boring for herself. I should wait for the next opportunity.
Anyway, it is convenient to come and go freely. It only takes one night to go back and forth. He flew on a snowy night. Now that the weather is getting warmer, can't he fly here?
He returned to Liushenmen in the middle of the night. Now Chengfeng no longer lived outside the city, but lived directly in Liushenmen.
A secret courtyard was specially arranged, and the left and right eunuchs were responsible for feeding it, and no one else in the Six Gates knew about it.
Liao Jiu did not live in Qingning Mansion. Most of the time, he lived inside the Six Gates to avoid being seen.
The wife of Marquis Qingning always protested against her son, who was away from home all year round, and would only send someone to bring her soup from time to time.
