Chapter 64 Encounter (2)
The Zhou family had already packed up and were waiting for the mother and daughter. When they arrived, Uncle Zhou drove the cart and the rest of the people sat on the cart and set off for the town.
On the way, several people discussed the matter of opening a shop, and from time to time expressed some opinions. The discussion was in full swing, and before they knew it, they had arrived in the town.
Caiwei wanted to find a middleman to rent a shop, which would save time and trouble. However, her mother and Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou disagreed. They thought that with so many people, they could find out by asking around. Why bother to find a middleman and spend more money for nothing!
Caiwei had no choice but to let them do what they wanted. She went to the most prosperous Goldfish Lane with her mother to look for shops for sale.
Goldfish Lane was the most prosperous commercial street in the town. The shops on the street were very prosperous, and there were few shops for sale. Caiwei and her mother walked hand in hand and asked around. After walking for a long time, they still couldn't find a suitable shop!
——Across
the street
, in the teahouse with red windows and small beams, Nangong Yi, wearing a brocade robe and jade belt, stood by the window with his hands behind his back. His tall body was as majestic as a mountain, his eyebrows were dyed with ink, his eyes were like stars, and his deep eyes looked at the pink figure downstairs indifferently. After a long time, he said lazily: "Zhuifeng!"
"Here!"
The square-faced guard standing by came forward and knelt behind him: "Master, please give your orders!"
"Go and check, what is that... girl doing here?"
"Yes!"
Zhuifeng replied, and the man turned into a black shadow and swept away through the window.
In a corner of the elegant room, the guard leader Zhuyue looked gloomy and glanced at his master uneasily. Seeing that he still looked as if nothing had happened, and even had the mood to investigate an unrelated woman, he felt annoyed and couldn't help but speak.
"Master, what should I do if Li Chunzong refuses to serve as an official?"
Nangong Yi turned around, his jade-like appearance against the midday sun, like a god.
"He will come out of retirement."
His tone was casual, but with irrefutable certainty.
Zhuyue was stunned!
When he went to visit Li Chunzong with his master last night, he was turned away by him. He went again early in the morning. Although the old man saw them, he looked like an old rogue. He refused to admit that he was the former state master who disappeared for no reason twenty years ago. He also smirked and sold them the tattered cloth in his cloth shop, with the morality of a profit-seeking commoner.
If he was not the real state master, it would be a great loss for the master to bring them over the mountains and run to this remote border town. If he was, it could only be said that this old guy hid too deeply. Why did the master believe that he would be willing to come out of retirement?
Nangong Yi ignored Zhuyue's ugly expression, and sat down at the table slowly. He picked up the teapot filled with mist, sipped a cup, held the cup in his hand, and his black hair was wrapped around the edge of the cup, which was particularly sad.
He grew up in a palace full of dangers, and developed a good ability to read people's expressions at a very young age. Although Li
Chunzong had no interest in worldly wealth, he was a kind person with the world in his heart. He knew that the prince was stubborn and sinister, and he would not watch the prince ascend to the throne and let the people suffer! Caiwei and her mother were still looking around, walking and watching.
Suddenly, a rough and loud teasing sound came -
"Oh, isn't this the scholar's wife?"
The abrupt teasing scared Caiwei and her daughter. They quickly withdrew their eyes from the shop and looked at the man who spoke vigilantl
