Chapter 229 The Blind Woman
Xie Jingyi looked around and asked in a low voice, "What's going on? What did you see?"
Guan Huizhi saw that she suddenly came over and took a step back uneasyly, "Go away, I'm not interested in a beauties who are not very beautiful who have been married. Why are you doing so close?"
Xie Jingyi took five big steps speechlessly and shouted at the top of her throat, "What have you seen?"
Guan Huizhi looked at the Xu family's door like lightning. Seeing that there was no servant squatting at the door and there was no movement inside the door, he rushed over and punched Xie Jingyi, "Just do it! It's not a big deal, just look at several young ladies sneaking into a small yard."
"There is no plaque in that small courtyard. When I sat at the door, I looked blind. The woman who looked a little dizzy didn't feel like a good place. I used to not like ugly people. If I saw too much, I didn't look carefully."
"Where is that place? I'm so idle, go and see how ugly it is."
Guan Huizhi poked Xie Jingyi on the shoulder, "You really like to meddle in other people's business. But that's true. Chai Youchen is going to the Censorate and no one is playing with you anymore. He is very idle. Just in Pingqing Lane, behind the Big Skeleton Teahouse, you walk over and suck it with your nose, and the fragrance is so strong that you have entered the temple's house."
Xie Jingyi was speechless. Is he a dog? He also followed the smell to find a place. You just don’t want to see ugly people, so you don’t remember which one it is!
She thought, and then changed the subject, "I haven't seen you come out to play recently, but have you found a new beauty?"
Guan Huizhi shook her head, "No, the Imperial Guards are going to have a big exam recently. My cousin will take me to the suburbs when he has time. Next time, let's play polo together. The weather is just warm."
Xie Jingyi's eyes moved, "Your cousin, are you a tiger?"
"No, my kung fu is so poor. How can I protect the official family? I look at it and want to rush my arms." Guan Huizhi said, rolling his eyes, quite proud, "I haven't beaten me for so long."
"That's all, choose a day when we don't come to Kui Shui and play polo. If Jing Yin doesn't come, you won't use it!"
Xie Jingyi was so angry that she grinned, "I'm not a human?"
Guan Huizhi smiled and showed eight big teeth, "Did you know me the first day? Beauty is human!"
Xie Jingyi raised her foot and kicked her. Guan Huizhi was not Chai Youchen. She dodged and avoided her. She turned over and got on the horse, waved her hand, "See you back."
"Be careful on the way."
Guan Huizhi pulled out a whip from his waist and shook it in the air, "Come on, who dares to stop me, I'll kill you."
After saying that, he ran away in a flash.
Seeing that Guan Huizhi had left, Song Guangyao couldn't help talking to Song Guangxi. After all, she would go back to the door tomorrow, so it wouldn't be too late to say that.
The group of three got on the carriage, went back to the house and talked with Zhai's clever words, and then went back to the yard to rest early.
The next day was another sunny day. Early in the morning, there were children from the suburbs carrying flower baskets and walking around the streets to sell freshly picked flowers, which were moist and dew flowing on them.
Xie Jingyi paid for a bright red crabapple flower.
He led the honeysuckle and rode the little donkey to Pingqing Lane. Although the big skeleton teahouse had a strange name, it was quite famous in the capital. Early in the morning, many people came here to drink tea with birds and dogs.
Xie Jingyi looked to the side of the back alley, opened the window, asked someone to go to Huxi Lake Longjing, and called another plate of broad beans, which started to crack.
An old man with white beard picked up Shi Bailing, sat opposite her, and smiled, "A few of us brothers, drink tea nearby every day and walk the birds. It's the first time I saw you, a little girl. Where can I get a wide bean and waste good tea."
Xie Jingyi smiled slightly, poured a cup of tea for the old man, and said with a smile, "If you are greedy for these broad beans, I will treat you to eat."
The old man was stunned and laughed out loud, "You little kid, are so smart. How do you know that what I want to eat is broad beans, not tea?"
Xie Jingyi raised her eyes and said, "The store is very particular. Every kind of tea is equipped with a different tea set. Why do you come to me with the same tea as me? Of course, you didn't say you wanted to eat it, but your eyes said it."
The old man laughed again, "Yes, right, I'll ask you for two. When I was young, I also loved eating broad beans, but now I'm old this year and I can't eat them. My wife told the shopkeeper that I must not sell my broad beans, otherwise I won't let me have tea... Early in the morning, I'm so greedy!"
Xie Jingyi pushed the plate, "It's not melting. You eat less, don't break your teeth. If the grandma finds out, don't blame me."
The old man with white beard grabbed a handful without saying a word and started kowtowing, "My surname is Su. Your baby is full of red faces, and it makes people feel very friendly at first glance. Are you here to have a tea or visit friends? I have lived here for a lifetime, and there is no place I don't know."
Xie Jingyi narrowed her eyes. She got up so early, what are you doing? Isn’t it just these ginseng sperm that came out for a walk?
Xie Jingyi looked around and said in a low voice, "I heard that there is a witch nearby, and she is very effective. My brother-in-law is going to take the imperial examination in the next exam. I want to ask if it is OK, but after walking around, I didn't find a place."
When the old man with white beard heard this, he frowned, "This is the imperial examination, you must concentrate on studying. If the witch can bless the gold list, then why should she be a witch? Then she can be the Minister of Personnel, and turn stones into gold!"
"Young people should not always think about taking shortcuts. A while ago, a blind woman came here, making a mess. People who came like you, praying for their father and brother, and wanting to get a gold medal. After the imperial examinations are finished, they will leave soon."
When Xie Jingyi heard this, she looked disappointed, "You're leaving? Oh, then I'm not here for nothing."
Old man Su secretly grabbed a handful of broad beans, "It's not in vain. I tell you, that woman is a liar. I saw it with my own eyes. After the little ladies left, she flipped her eyes, hey, I saw it!"
Xie Jingyi opened her eyes wide in surprise, "My God, there is such a person! It's just too much!"
Old man Su hurriedly put his hand to his mouth, "Speak quietly, look down and see if you look up, and it's hard for the old man to do something about smashing people's jobs. Don't talk about it."
Xie Jingyi hurriedly covered her mouth, "I know. Didn't you say she's gone? Why did you still look down and see her?"
Old man Su was stunned, looked around, and said, "I know that woman. When she was not a witch, she was in a wealthy family's home. Oh, I smelled the fragrance of my noodles, and I left first, so that the noodles would be lumped. My old woman would scold me."
Xie Jingyi waved her hand and smiled, "Thank you, I almost got cheated. I'll ask you for tea next time."
Old Man Su smiled and ran away.
Xie Jingyi looked out the window.
