Chapter 5
Before dawn, the Lou family sent people to blockade Yangzhou City.Lou Jinglei, Lou Yinxi, and Lou Yinche led people to search around the city.But because it was still early in the morning, it was inconvenient for the Lou family to search the houses, so they could only patrol the streets.
Hiding at Fang Jie's house, although Lou Yiqin wasn't very scared, the cold and hard kang made her feel uncomfortable all over.Mu Shaoai naturally wanted to get it, but he didn't make a sound, and just talked with Fang Jie aside.
"Is she the eldest lady of the Lou family?"
Fang Jie's eyes were not jealousy, but hatred. Seeing it made Mu Shaoai feel uncomfortable, and said, "She's just an inexperienced child, not the person you're looking for."
"Hmph! I don't want to know this. Shaoai, why did you bring her here? You should know that I don't like people from the Lou family."
"Don't you want to tell her about Zhaofu yourself?" Mu Shaoai said with a smile, "She is the lady of the Lou family, if she can help Zhaofu clear up his grievances, wouldn't it be the best way for Zhaofu?"
"she?"
"Although I have just returned to Yangzhou, I have heard a lot of rumors on the street. Although this eldest lady loves to play tricks, she is kind-hearted and has a chivalrous heart. She will definitely help with this." Pulling Fang Jie, Forcing her to look into his eyes, Mu Shaoai said again: "If you really disagree, I'll send her back to the Loufu. But the matter of recruiting blessings can only be left as it is."
"Okay, okay! I agree that she can live here! But she lives in your place, where do you live?"
"Hehe, of course it's the roof."
"No, you will catch a cold. Come with me and live in the old house."
"what?"
"what?"
Hearing the chorus, Fang Jie turned her head and saw Lou Yiqin staring at herself and Mu Shaoai in a daze.
Mu Shaoai also looked embarrassed, and said, "The Lou family didn't look for me, so I'll go to the inn to stay."
"No." Fang Jie said without hesitation, "What's the relationship between you and me?"
"She will misunderstand me dressed like this."
Fang Jie was amused by Mu Shaoai's embarrassing expression, and asked, "You're going to be a housekeeper in the Loufu, so is it possible that you still have to pretend to be a man?"
"This……"
"Why do you pretend to be a man? You are much better than them. Shaoai, what you want to do is to be a housekeeper, right?"
"Let's talk about this later!" Mu Shaoai didn't want to say that he could no longer be the housekeeper of the Loufu, so Mu Shaoai changed the subject. "If Miss Lou can't fall asleep, can I listen to a story from my friend?"
"Are you a woman?" With the help of the weak light, Lou Yiqin carefully looked at the person in front of him.Sure enough, apart from the men's attire, every gesture carried a feminine charm that only a woman could have.
Fang Jie had already made it very clear, and Mu Shaoai didn't want to hide it, so she simply nodded.
"Then you still want to be the housekeeper of Loufu? The housekeeper?"
"I once had that wish." Thinking of the lofty ambitions he had when he was a child, Mu Shaoai blushed a little, and couldn't help turning his face away.
"Okay! If you can help me get out of Yangzhou City, I promise you can be my housekeeper."
It's okay to lie to others, but Mu Shaoai just smiled and didn't take it seriously. "Before that, please ask Miss Lou to listen to my friend's story!"
"Crack!" Lou Yiqin suddenly slapped the table with all his strength, and said angrily, "It's unreasonable that there is such a thing in the Loufu! If I knew who did it, I would definitely make him look good. Miss Fang, Don't worry! I will definitely investigate this matter and find out!"
As soon as the words came out, Lou Yiqin thought that he would not be able to return to the Lou Mansion for the time being, so he couldn't help but stand there, not knowing what to say next.
Seeing this, Mu Shaoai hurriedly laughed and said: "Miss Lou will do what she says, so I will leave this matter to Miss Lou. When the limelight of recruiting relatives passes, Miss Lou can return Zhao Fu's innocence."
"It's natural."
Looking outside, although it was not yet dawn, but counting the time, the three of them almost stayed up all night.Lou Yiqin looked tired and couldn't bear it any longer, and fell asleep on the table in the blink of an eye.He didn't even know that Mu Shaoai carried her back to the bed.
Fang Jie watched quietly from the side, not knowing what was going on in her mind.
"What's the matter? There is hope for the matter of recruiting blessings, why are you so sad instead?"
"Shaoai, why aren't you a man?"
Not knowing what Fang Jie wanted to say, Mu Shaoai just listened quietly.
"How nice it would be if you were a man..."
"What's so good about me being a man? Didn't you say how much better I am than them?"
"Yes! You are much better than them." Fang Jie laughed again suddenly, and said, "Really, how could I say such things. Shaoai, you haven't slept all night, go to rest!"
"I'm not tired. When it's you, your eyes are red. You go to rest first! I have to go to the street to check the situation."
"That's it! Then you should be careful." After speaking, Fang Jie lay down next to Lou Yiqin.
After blowing out the candles, Mu Shaoai walked onto the street unhurriedly.
Although it is not yet dawn, the small vendors on the street have already started to prepare for the day's business.After walking a few steps, he saw Lou Mansion's servants patrolling around, Mu Shaoai frowned, and stood in front of a small stall selling wontons.
"Brother, would you like a bowl of wontons? It's absolutely real, I guarantee you'll want to eat it again."
Mu Shaoai nodded, gave the money, and sat aside.
The owner of the Lou Mansion seemed to be attracted by the peddler's voice, and sat down at a table next to Mu Shaoai.
"Hey! Missy has gone somewhere, and she hasn't found it all night. From my point of view, she probably left the city long ago."
"You still hope that the eldest lady will not leave the city, otherwise we will have to go out of the city to find her."
"But wandering around the city all the time is not a problem!"
"When it's dawn, the government will send someone to look for the eldest lady. We can go back then. Sigh! Just bear with it!"
"Why do you think Miss ran away from home?"
"I heard from the second young master that it is for the purpose of choosing a son-in-law. But this eldest lady is really weird. Why is the eldest lady so anxious to choose a son-in-law for the governor's family?"
The two servants talked one after the other, without noticing that Lou Yinxi was leading another group of people to find him in the distance.
"You two!" Although Lou Yinxi was angry, she still had a smiling face. "Any clues about Miss?"
The two servants hurriedly put down their bowls, knelt on the ground and dared not speak.
Lou Yinche, who was always beside Lou Yinxi, glanced around and saw that Mu Shaoai was about to get up and leave, so he couldn't help pointing in Mu Shaoai's direction.
Lou Yinxi naturally also noticed that this alluring boy in men's clothing was exactly Mu Shaoai who appeared at the banquet.Not caring about scolding the servants, he hurried up and said with a smile: "Mr. Mu, please stay."
