As soon as Jiangmen Jiaojiao opened her eyes, she was paranoid that the prince had come to steal her

Shasha quickly said: "This slave just mentioned it and there is no need to push through. How can we squeeze in the crowd with the young lady? What if we hurt her?"

"Let's go somewhere else and have a look. It's quite lively elsewhere!"

Shasha held Xie Jiajia's hand and said.

Xie Jiajia smiled and said: "You are quite considerate of your young lady... Let's go then. I remember that my little sister is outside. It's so lively here, so maybe she is here too."

"Let's go forward. If we see her, there will be a boat to watch the fun!"

Shasha nodded: "Yes."

The group of people stayed away from the crowds on the river bank and wandered to a place where the crowds were slightly less crowded.

……

On the third floor of Qingfeng Building, Lu Hanqiu and Xuan Ming sat opposite each other.

There were food and wine on the table in front of the two of them. Lu Hanqiu lazily picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, "Drink, you invited me to come to dinner, but you didn't move your chopsticks and kept looking at me. Is there a flower on my face?" "

"I ate with my mother at home, but I couldn't eat it."

Xuan Ming said calmly: "I invite you out to thank you for taking care of my house during this time."

"Oh." Lu Hanqiu curled his lips and smiled: "It seems that I am not the only one taking care of your house. How do you thank others?"

His tone was somewhat ambiguous.

Xuan Ming had been with him for several years, and he could tell what was going on in his mind at a glance. He smiled and said, "I can sit up straight, so don't use your words to make malicious speculations."

"Of course!" Lu Hanqiu filled the wine glass himself, "Of course I know who you are. I'm thinking about you. I'm afraid that you don't know the sinister nature of people's hearts, and end up falling into trouble and coming to me to cry."

Xuan Ming narrowed his eyes slightly: "What do you mean?"

"Thank you, Third Miss..." Lu Hanqiu drank all the wine, "You are not a fuel-efficient lamp."

Xuan Ming asked again: "Speak clearly!"

"Look, there's a whole street of flowers not far away, right?"

Lu Hanqiu pointed out the window. The place was brightly lit, rich and romantic, "That's a gold-selling den, a paradise for men. There are so many beautiful women there who are the playthings of others."

Xuan Ming frowned: "I don't understand. She has nothing to do with that place."

"It's just that you don't understand." Lu Hanqiu's smile deepened, and between the light and shadow, there was a color in his eyes that Xuan Ming couldn't understand, "The men who go there spend money to have fun and play with women."

"Miss Xie San, as a woman, is similar to the men who go to Hualou. The roles are reversed."

Xuan Ming frowned and his mind was knotted.

What do you mean?
Men go to Flower Street to play with women.

Xie Jiajia also reverses roles like those men, so Xie Jiajia is playing the role of a man?

no?
He got to know the Xie family a little because of Yun Qi's instructions.

Xie Jiajia lives in seclusion and is very lazy.

Except for those words that are a bit unrestrained, the rest are not too out of the ordinary.

Except for her groping hands and darting eyes after falling into the water... But now Xuan Ming felt that he might be too nervous and overthinking.

"never mind."

Xuan Ming stood up and didn't want to listen to Lu Hanqiu's nonsense anymore: "It's getting late. You should go back to your house early. I'm going back too. I'll send someone to deliver the gift to your house."

Lu Hanqiu waved his hand towards him, drank all the wine on the table, and murmured: "If you don't listen to advice, you deserve to be punished."

He picked up the jug again and wanted to pour wine, but his eyes were fixed on the dishes on the table and he stopped all movements.

That woman... was obviously warm and gentle one moment, but the next moment she turned against him and married someone else, and now she has reached out to another man.

The Taoist practice is deeper than him, and everyone can play well.He had no intention of pouring himself a drink anymore, so he threw away the wine bottle, stood up and stretched his muscles to walk to the bed, but suddenly his eyes narrowed slightly.

I saw a pair of masters and servants on the bridge that day, holding a pink and tender little girl, and two guards following behind them. Who else could it be if it wasn't Xie Jiajia?
Lu Hanqiu stared for a moment, then turned around and went downstairs.

But when he arrived at the bridge, those people were nowhere to be seen.

……

Xie Jiajia was invited to a ship by Xuan Ming.

"His Highness ordered this."

After entering the cabin on the ship and sitting down, Xuan Ming handed Xie Jiajia a hand stove.

Originally, he had no interest in these dance shows, but Xie Jiajia and the maid just wanted to find a place to watch the fun, so they borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha.

"Oh." Xie Jiajia nodded and looked at Xuan Ming with a smile.

Today, he was certainly not the slovenly look he had seen that day in Xiaonian. His beard was shaved cleanly and his bun was neatly combed. Sitting opposite Xie Jiajia, he looked a little reserved.

Xie Jiajia didn't know why he was so reserved.

Is he afraid that she will do something to him because he is in the same room with him?

Stop making trouble, she doesn't want to or has the guts.

In fact, Xuan Ming looked at Xie Jiajia, thinking about what Lu Hanqiu had just said.

No matter how he looked at it, he felt that Lu Hanqiu was talking nonsense.

Xie Jiajia really doesn't look like a woman with such a bold style, but why did Lu Hanqiu suddenly describe Xie Jiajia like this?
Could it be that he has some plot against Xie Jiajia?
He is brave enough and is not afraid of His Highness cutting off his evil roots.

The little crescent moon started to make babbling noises.

Shasha stepped forward and said, "Miss, please come and hold the little lady. You don't have much to eat at the dinner, so why not eat more."

"also!"

There was food on the boat, which was delicious and delicious. Xie Jiajia was indeed a little hungry.

After she moved her chopsticks, she found that Xuan Ming was still staring at her nervously, and couldn't help joking: "You are really afraid of my words, otherwise you should go back."

"..."

Xuan Ming looked away in embarrassment, picked up the chopsticks, picked them up randomly before saying, "Why should I be afraid of you?"

Xie Jiajia raised her eyebrows and smiled even more, but she didn't say anything more to him and lowered her head to eat.

The two of them chatted a bit about the old lady while eating.

Speaking of this matter, Xuan Ming was extremely grateful to Xie Jiajia. He also prepared some leathers from Northern Hebei for Xie Jiajia and had them sent to Xie's mansion in the name of the old lady.

For some reason, when he saw those leathers, he could always think of how tightly wrapped Xie Jiajia was and how fluffy they were that day, as well as the fur balls dangling gently by her ears.

Xuan Ming specially told people to select some coat colors suitable for young women.

In the past, he would not interfere with these trivial matters, and always left them to the stewards of the house.

Xuan Ming was thinking wildly for a moment and suddenly saw Xie Jiajia looking out the window.

He looked back and saw two boats passing by not far away. The sound of silk and bamboo strings was constantly rising and falling, accompanied by the sounds of men and women teasing each other in a sensual and lascivious manner.

He frowned.

Xie Jiajia seemed to be watching with great interest, stood up and walked to the window.

Xuan Ming pursed his lips, put down his chopsticks, stepped forward quickly, and closed the window with a snap. (End of chapter)
