Chapter 308: Only stealing leisure in the middle of the night
Although he hated Mr. Xu Er, Xu Wei was ignorant of the world, innocent and helpful, but he always turned good things into bad things. Even though Wang Fulin couldn't tell her about his children, he just treated her as his sister. At this moment, she was so soft-hearted that even though he had already been over, he had to agree. He asked the two local snakes behind him which famous restaurant was in this Shou'an night market. He asked the two of them to lead the way, and rode their horses to follow the sedan chair, chatting and eating, and slowly swaying along the way.
From Xu Wei, he learned that Mr. Xu was coming to Hangzhou to visit Shi Guifang, a salt transport envoy from Liangzhezhou, and immediately felt that the matter was a coincidence. He immediately smiled and said, "That's right, just when I came out before, the two girls in my family were still visiting the Shi family with the two ladies of the Ye family. They were familiar with the sisters of the Shi family. It is said that they are all very cheerful and friendly girls. If you look back, you can date together, maybe you can share multiple handkerchiefs. Xiaobei kept yelling that the rules of the Shi family are big, but the two ladies of the Shi family are easier to get along with than those of the ladies of the Yixiang Society."
"Really?" Xu Wei's eyes lit up. Just as he was about to say goodbye, he suddenly thought of Wang Fulin's grammatical disease just now and immediately said, "You call Sister Xiaobei by the name, why do you still call me Miss Jiu? My grandfather and grandmother clearly treat you as their own people, and Sister Zhen has always called me Xiaowei."
Can this guy and a woman be the same?
Wang Fulin couldn't see Xu Wei's tenderness. After thinking about it, he decided to vaguely call him: "Okay, okay, I'll take you to worship the Five Insect Temple first. I saw that the house in front of me was not there, Fuyun Tower, and said that it was a great snack."
Xu Wei was only concerned about being happy that she could meet Wang Fulin again at Shou'an Night Market. At this moment, she responded casually and stopped in front of the door and got off the sedan chair. Seeing the three words on the plaque, she was stunned.
She was stunned. The guy who was rushing forward to welcome the guests saw their group. Even though Xu Wei put on a hat when she got out of the sedan chair, he still recognized the person immediately and immediately smiled and said, "This young lady, I just ate the snacks from our Fuyun Tower, so she introduced this young master to come with her? The snacks from our Fuyun Tower are famous in the entire Shouan Night Market, and no one can beat us, especially the various cakes..."
Before the guy could finish bragging, Xu Wei immediately grabbed Wang Fulin's sleeve and hurried out. Until she got into the sedan chair and sat down, she said shyly and annoyedly: "There are many other good places in this Shou'an Night Market, so I won't eat here!"
Wang Fulin was suddenly angry and funny. It turned out that Xu Wei was hungry to him and had not eaten dinner, which was just fooling people. She happened to be the food she ate in the Fuyun Tower before. So, she visited again in a short time and brought his group three people with her. The guy had such a reaction. Seeing the guy who was just attentive to welcome guests, he suddenly realized it and pounded his head in annoyance. He ordered Yang Wencai, who was accompanying him to come forward to give him some money, then knocked on the partition of the sedan chair, and said with a smile: "To be honest, I just ate a lot of food in the night market. Let's do this, let's continue walking with you for a while."
Xu Wei was most afraid that Wang Fulin would lie because she was angry and left. After hearing that he had seen through his tricks, he was willing to visit the night market with her. She was immediately ecstatic. She quickly opened a crack in the curtains and explained in a low voice: "I just ate here, and after seeing you, I still want to walk around together. In the past six months, you can count the number of times you have been to the Xu family with one hand. Even my grandparents said that you are too busy and you don't see anyone all day long."
"Okay, I will definitely apologize when I see the old man."
Wang Fulin had no choice but to make a promise. When he was wandering around in the night market, he could only hear the sound of Xu Wei asking this and that. In the end, he often got out of the sedan chair, but fortunately he was wearing a veil and couldn't see clearly. In addition, there were many followers, and after watching around, he was not afraid of being hit by outsiders. After walking around for about half an hour, he felt a little tired while riding a horse. When he looked at the two sedan chairmen, he was still stable and had strong feet. Just when he wanted to ask to go back and meet Old Master Xu, he suddenly heard Xu Wei in the sedan chair scream softly.
"mask!"
Wang Fulin looked up and saw that there was a stall in front of a store, full of masks. He couldn't help but remember the scene when he bought a mask at the stall in the back street of the county, and then saw Xu Wei passing by, and she was still wearing a ghost face. His face softened immediately, and he smiled and said, "You wait here for a while."
When he walked to the stall, he found that the goods sold here were more exquisite and more varied than those in Shexian, but more of them were the characters in the popular operas. He was not very interested in the plays of talented men and beautiful women under the moonlight, so he deliberately picked a few hideous ghost masks. The store owner reminded him with kindness: "Little officials, these are all used by the village gods to exorcise ghosts. It's useless for you to buy so many of them back."
"It's okay, it's just for fun." Wang Fulin asked someone to pay the money, then hugged a lot of people back to the front of the sedan chair, showing it all out, "You have research on this, and choose one by yourself, so I'll give it to you."
If another girl's family accepts such a strange gift, she will definitely be confused, but Xu Wei in the sedan chair is very happy. She raised the curtain of the sedan chair and poked out half of her body. She looked at the six or seven masks in Wang Fulin's hand and chose again and again. Finally, she snatched one of them in her hand and held them back into the sedan chair: "I want this!"
Wang Fulin saw that these were the same, and it didn't matter. Seeing that the store owner came here in person, he wanted to tie the mask with a rope and then wrap it on paper. He smiled and thanked him. After getting on the horse, he carried this line of things and said, "It's getting late, and it's time to go back to see Old Master Xu. Although he let you out like this, he can't help but worry."
No... She noticed just now that she had just noticed that one of the entourages she followed was missing, so she must have gone back to report the message to her grandfather!
Xu Wei thought so in her heart, but she agreed obediently. Sure enough, when they arrived at the theater, she found that her grandfather had never come out at all. After taking Wang Fulin to find the box, as soon as she entered, she saw Mr. Xu shaking his head and making an intoxicated look. She immediately went up and grabbed the old man's arm: "Grandfather, who are you here?"
"Who is here?" Old Master Xu pretended to open his eyes and saw that it was Wang Fulin standing at the door with a smile. He immediately sat up straight, then he greeted with a smile, "Oh, it's Fulin, come in, come in, come in, how could it be so coincidental? Could it be that you and Xiaowei met at the night market?"
Old fox, just pretend! When my eyes are white, I didn’t see that Xu Wei’s entourage was missing?
Wang Fulin didn't hate Mr. Xu's intentional flaws. After bowing deeply, he sat down at Mr. Xu's greeting. Facing such an old fox, he was not as polite as he was to Xu Wei. After sitting down, he told him straight to the point that he met Mr. Xu Er in Hangzhou. When he learned that Mr. Xu Er was walking with Zhang Taizheng from the Zhang family of the Shanxi merchant family, Mr. Xu's face remained motionless, but Xu Wei felt angry and anxious: "How can dad help outsiders bully his own people?"
As soon as she said that, she suddenly realized her father's usual bad attitude towards Wang Fulin. When Wang Fulin's tone was heard, Zhang Taizheng was obviously a young talent, so he knew some of his father's thoughts without asking. She suddenly turned pale, but she was clenched and she never spoke again.
Seeing his granddaughter's heartbroken and disappointed look, Master Xu Er sighed secretly, then smiled and said, "What's next? I don't believe that the disaster star caused just a little bit!"
However, when he said this, he heard Wang Fulin fall into the water late at night until today when he was having a private conversation with Zhejiang Governor Wu Lian, and was questioned by a scholar. Finally, he had a beautiful counterattack. Master Xu Er couldn't help but raise his evaluation of Wang Fulin's troubles. He laughed and patted the handrail, then didn't say much, but said in a very natural tone: "I'm going to linger in Hangzhou for a while, and then live on Shuimen Street in the west of the city. When you go there to inquire about the Xu family in She County, everyone knows that if you have anything, come to me. As for Xiaowei's father, don't worry. When I come, he will be like a mouse seeing a cat and have already escaped."
When Xu Wei heard her grandfather describe her father like this, she burst out laughing at first, but then lowered her head sadly. Her hands couldn't help but pinch the mask that Wang Fulin gave her. Although it was of low value and not something suitable for women at all, it was given to him alone, not every time he visited the Xu family on Doushan Street, he gave it to her because of etiquette.
That night, Wang Fulin naturally had another night. However, when he arrived in Hangzhou, he realized that it was not a problem at all. Ordinary people bribed the strong team to patrol the night and could get a temporary sign and go home safely. It is said that this has become a way for the yamen to generate income. As for those with great reputations, such as Mr. Xu, and the strong team members, they also enjoyed such treatment. It was approaching midnight at this moment. When he stepped into the inn, he thought that everyone must have been asleep. Who knew that a friend came forward, but another guy ran back. After a while, the shopkeeper ran out.
"Young Master Wang, you're back." The shopkeeper didn't know how to evaluate such a young but most trouble-provoking customer. Since he came to his store, he has not known how many shocking things have been, and how many unexpected visitors have been. He slapped Wang Fulin's floating dust twice with his sleeves, and then lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Chen is waiting for you all night."
