Chapter 235 Thank you gift (one more)
Zhao Ze was indeed Li Yuqi who met by chance.

He went to the shop to pick up things for his mother today.

A while ago, Mrs. Jiang ordered three bolts of material at Qianjin Pavilion before sending them over from Hangzhou.

April and May are the busiest time for Qianjin Pavilion, Jiang Shi is easy to talk, and doesn't rush them to the county prince's mansion. Anyway, Zhao Ran and his brothers are idle at home, so Zhao Ze is asked to pick it up for her.

He took the ingredients that Mrs. Jiang wanted from the Qianjin Pavilion, and seeing the bustle outside, he suddenly became interested and said to drink two cups of tea before going back, so he asked the servants to bring their things and go home first.

As a result, I ran into Li Yuqi outside the teahouse.

It's a coincidence.

There were so many people on the street, the Wucheng Bingma Division and the Jingzhao Mansion sent extra people to patrol the streets to maintain the law and order in Shengjing.

But at this time of year, those thieves still steal in an endless stream.

Can't stop it.

Li Yuqi didn't know where she came from, but when she was passing by, she was hit by someone, her body was weak, she staggered and almost fell.

The person who hit him was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, his face and hands were dirty, he looked like a wild child wandering on the street and undisciplined.

Li Yuqi was soft-hearted, so he didn't scold him, but stopped the girls around him and let the child go.

When the person ran away, the girl tidied up the messy skirt on her body, only to find that the purse around her waist was gone, and even the money bag that the little girl was carrying was gone.

This was a thief, and you don't need to think about it to know that it was the kid who did it just now.

The little girl was so angry that she stomped her feet angrily and insisted on reporting to the officials.

Li Yuqi was also angry, it was rare for him to be interested in going out for a walk, it was really bad luck to encounter this kind of thing, but he didn't want to cause complications, so he just said forget it.

Just happened to meet Zhao Ze.

The Li family's visits to and from the Prince's Mansion in Changping County are definitely not too many, and everyone is doing well on the scene.

Li Yuqi was soft-tempered since he was a child, and most of the time he looked cowardly, so he didn't play with them very much.

After growing up, men and women are different, and girls have nothing to do with them.

That is to say, it is passable.

Zhao Ze met her on the road, said hello and was about to leave.

Then seeing the girls around Li Yuqi frowning, Li Yuqi himself was also frowning.

Only then did Zhao Ze ask a few more words, and he knew the cause and effect, but the child who stole the money bag had gone to nowhere.

He only thought about it for a while, and sent the servants around him to inform Bingma Si and the people in Jingzhao Mansion to help find it as much as possible.

Such things as pouches and purses are better for the gentleman, but for the young lady, they are close-fitting items. If it’s not good, just let it be stolen like this and leave it alone.

What's more, it was all stolen from Shengjing's aristocrats. There is really no law of the king, so we can't let it go.

Li Yuqi had no choice but to thank him again and again.

After coming and going, the two fell down in the teahouse and talked a few more words.

It was also because of the noise and excitement of people coming and going, and the two of them wanted to talk, so they had to find a quieter place, so they moved under the trees by the side of the road to avoid pedestrians.

However, this scene seemed to have another meaning in Jiang Wan's eyes.

After all, Li Yuqi lowered her head coquettishly, she looked very shy and timid.

If Pei Qingyuan hadn't pulled her, she would have rushed downstairs just now.

The matter of Ru Parallel Palace before was related to Pei Qingyuan herself, so she also asked about it carefully after she came to the capital.

Seeing that Jiang Wan was so angry and her cheeks were bulging, she could only cover her lips and smile and held on to him even more, not daring to let go: "If I hadn't pulled you, wouldn't you have rushed down?"

Jiang Wan pursed her lips: "It's not that I'm supercilious, it's just..."

She couldn't speak for herself.

Isn't this superfluous?
They were all acquaintances, and they met on the street. It was a very common thing to chat a few words, and it made her sting.

Pei Qingyuan knew where her knot was, so he persuaded her a few words: "I didn't say anything to you. In fact, Mrs. Li Liu is pretty good. She seemed unclear about the incident at the beginning, but if you think about it carefully, Thinking about this kind of thing, she is a little lady, the most important thing is to clean herself up, should she be involved?
If she had her brother who was a direct relative by her side, she might not even let her show her face.

That is a cousin, it is unknown whether he is close or not.

Wasn't she also very decisive when dealing with that girl later?

In the past few months after returning to the city, she didn't want to come out to meet people and felt ashamed, so she can only say that she doesn't have the same temperament as you, and you really don't have to look down on her like this.

They all live in Shengjing, and they don't see each other when they look up, making them look like enemies. If you ask me, it's unnecessary. "

As she spoke, she glanced downstairs from the corner of her eye again: "Besides, it's not our business to care about what my cousin is thinking. Isn't there still uncle and aunt? It may not be the case Son, you're in a hurry to get angry here."

Exactly the words.

Jiang Wan thought to herself, and laughed out loud: "Yes, my cousin is right, I'm anxious to get angry here, what are you trying to do."

·
The two sisters ate out for lunch before returning to the county palace.

After lunch, Mrs. Jiang went to take a nap. Prince Changping had a banquet to attend in the second half of the day, so he packed up after dinner and left the house.

Zhao Ran didn't know what to do, Zhao Lin and Zhao Ce couldn't stay idle at home, so they made an appointment to go horse racing in the western suburbs early in the morning.

The house is quiet, except for Zhao Ze.

When Jiang Wan and Pei Qingyuan returned home, they met the Li family who sent someone to bring a thank you gift.

Because it wasn't a big deal, Zhao Ze didn't disturb Jiang's nap, he took care of it himself, and sent someone to Li's house to give a gift in return.

This is called ritual exchange.

When Jiang Wan saw those, he didn't know that it was from the Li family, so he asked him first: "Whose gift is this from? It's not a festival, why did you send so many things in such a good way?"

But after a quick glance, she could basically see that they were all the most common thank-you gifts, such as pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and the four treasures of the study.

Zhao Ze said oh, still playing with a wolf hair in his hand, without turning his head, he went straight to her: "It's from the Li family."

Jiang Wan frowned: "Li Yuqi's family?"

Only then did Zhao Ze look back at her, with a smile on his face: "Otherwise, how many Li families are there in Shengjing?"

Although there are many families surnamed Li who can get on the lintel, there are not many families who come and go to the county palace to give gifts.

Jiang Wan remembered the scene he saw downstairs in the teahouse again, so he asked Zhao Ze again: "Did the second cousin help someone's family? But I don't think this thank you gift is very solemn, just a very common one." Thank you, son, it doesn't seem to be very similar to his family's handwriting, it's a bit stingy."
