Volume 1 Chapter 21 Same Car

  Today's first update is here, and there will be another one at 8:00 PM tonight!

  A speeding carriage is followed by a swirling cloud of dust.

  Jinzi and Xiao Xiao covered their mouths and noses with their hands, furrowed their brows and coughed a few times.

  Just as they were about to make their move, the horse carriage backed away and returned.

  Ye Tian's driving skills should be quite good, and he quickly pulled up in front of Jinzi and his servant, smiling: "Young Master Lang can't find a carriage to leave in?"

  Without waiting for Jinzi to respond, Xiao smiled and nodded eagerly: "Yes, I've been waiting for a long time, but I don't see the carriage!" After finishing speaking, her eyes still stared straight at the carriage, the meaning couldn't be clearer, it was as if she had declared it publicly.

  Jinzi glared at Xiaoxiao with a stern expression, and Xiaoxiao knew that his request was a bit excessive. Although he didn't say anything, Ye Tian could also tell.

  Moreover, there is another reason why at this moment, although the young lady and I are dressed as men, we are not really so; the people in the carriage are Mr. Chen Lang Jun, after all, men and women are different, I am truly lacking in consideration, no wonder the young lady is displeased.

  Just as Jinzi was about to bid farewell to Ye Tian, a cold and detached voice came from inside the carriage: "The sky is getting darker, and it's not easy to find a horse-drawn carriage. If you're willing, I'd be happy to give you a ride!"

  Smiling, she glanced at Jinzi and made up her mind. She would listen to her mother-in-law's words and if her mother-in-law said no, she would also speak up to decline.

  Her eyes sparkled slightly, her cherry lips pursed, and after a moment she replied: "In that case, I would be rude to decline, thank you for your kind intentions, Mr. Chenlang!"

  Ye Tian hastily jumped down from the carriage, moved a footstool, lifted the bamboo curtain, and let Jinzi's master and servant enter.

  Chen Lang's carriage was very spacious, with a few beds inside, and the floor was covered with grass mats. The decoration was simple and elegant, and the carriage was filled with his aura, not the kind of smell that could be smelled like those of the elegant courtesans, but a feeling.

  Kaneko sat down in front of Tatsurou-kun, bowed his head slightly after adjusting his sleeves, and said, "I'm disturbing you, Tatsurou-kun!"

  "Chen Lang's dark eyes were as deep as a well, making it impossible to glimpse even a hint of his thoughts. He didn't look at Jinzi, but instead turned his head and gazed out the window through the bamboo curtain, seemingly carelessly responding: 'It doesn't matter!'"

  It's really true that every word counts! Jinzi slightly disdainful.

  Xiao Xiao sat down at the exit of the car, a pair of bright black eyes occasionally stealing glances at Chen Lang Jun's devilishly charming appearance.

  Wow, really handsome!

  No wonder Si Nangzi often asked Ah Lang to take her out for fun, most likely also to see Chen Langjun.

  Smiling to herself, she didn't hear Ye Tian's inquiry outside at all.

  "Thanks for sending me to the Jin Manor's second gate!" Jin Zi frowned and smiled as he replied.

  What's this girl doing?

  Laughing and waking up, embarrassed to lower her head, she didn't dare look at her daughter-in-law, with a flush on her face.

  Chen Yixue's eyebrows involuntarily twitched when he heard the sound of knocking on the door, and his eyes glanced at Jinzi's stunningly beautiful profile.

  It's actually quite similar to Jin Huang Qin! Is she his sister?

  No, not like the one he brought out last time, even if it's separated by a layer of glass. The dark and gloomy atmosphere is filled with an eerie feeling. The emperor's concubine is as beautiful as a fairy, but her heart is full of schemes. The streets are crowded and chaotic, with people rushing to and fro. The gray lies are like a thick fog, making it hard to distinguish right from wrong. The clever and cunning ones are good at pretending, but their true nature will eventually be exposed.

  Why has Huang Qin never mentioned this sister before?

  Could it be the younger sister?

  Chen Yuxue smiled wryly to herself for a moment.

  When did he start gossiping about such things?

  They sat silently opposite each other in the carriage.

  Kaneko leaned against the car window, looking through the bamboo curtain at the scenery flying quickly backwards outside.

  About a quarter of an hour later, the carriage had left the fields and was making its way through the busy streets.

  Scale-like shops and mansions hung up lanterns in front of their doors, neon lights dyed the market with a layer of hazy, soft dusk. Jinzi felt the prosperity of ancient night markets, his heart couldn't help but flutter with excitement.

  The entrance of Yuexiu Building was crowded with people coming and going, a continuous stream. Women dressed in colorful silk clothes were entering and exiting the store, smiling happily.

  Jinzi had sharp eyes and immediately saw that it was a silk store.

  Those girls are holding silk fabrics in their hands, which seem to be of good quality. Just by looking at the color, you can tell that the texture should not be bad. However, those floral patterns seem to lack novelty.

  In a moment of contemplation, an idea flashed through Jinzi's mind. She clenched her fists slightly with excitement and thought to herself: This plan should work!

  Go back and think carefully, strive for success at one stroke!

  Jinzi reluctantly watched as Yuexuan Villa flashed before her eyes, she withdrew her gaze and concentrated on thinking about the steps of this matter.

  The hustle and bustle of the sound gradually faded away, the main road was desolate, this is already a noble residential area, ordinary civilians dare not come here, so except for the nobles and servants of each mansion, there are not many people, naturally no noise.

  The carriage went around a bend and proceeded for more than twenty meters before stopping in front of the second gate of the Jin Mansion.

  "Jinlang Jun has arrived!" Ye Tian said respectfully from outside.

  Xiao Xiao got down from the carriage first, lifted the curtain and stretched out his hand to help his wife get down.

  Jinzi tidied up his clothes and his eyes fell on Chen Yixue.

  He was closing his eyes at this moment, had he fallen asleep?

  Should we say goodbye to him?

  Will waking him up be bad?

  But saying goodbye again is also very impolite...

  In the midst of struggling, Jinzi saw the pen and ink on the case table, raised the corner of his mouth, picked up the wolf hair brush and wrote down a few large characters in a dragon flying and phoenix dancing style.

  Put down the pen and let out a sigh, thinking to herself: I really don't want to talk to this iceberg, but since they sent me back home after all, I should still say thank you politely.

  He shifted his body, bowed out of the carriage, and jumped off the horse-drawn vehicle with a smile under the support.

  "Thanks for your trouble this time!" Jinzi smiled and thanked Ye Tian.

  Ye Tian smiled again and replied: "Lord Jin is too polite! Please come in quickly, I'll send Lord Lang back to the villa right away!"

  "Alright, be careful on the road!" Jinzi instructed.

  Ye Tian jumped onto the horse carriage and drove it skillfully, gradually disappearing from Jinzi's master and servant's line of sight.

  The night color as ink comes up, the bright moon reveals a shy half face, vaguely, shadowy.

  Jinzi smiled and walked up to knock on the door, Xiaoxiao followed with a slightly nervous expression. After knocking several times, accompanied by a creaking sound, the heavy wooden door made of dark lacquered wood opened.

  The person who opened the door was actually his mother.

  The moment she saw Jinzi and Xiao, Mother Zhuang almost shed tears, hastily letting the two enter the house. With a belly full of doubts, she had no time to ask questions, but simply closed the door in a hurry and walked ahead with a lantern to guide them.

  Finally returned to Qingfengyuan, fortunately without startling anyone in the mansion.

  Mother Wang had been waiting on Jinzi as he washed and dressed, and now she brought in the meal that had been ready since early morning.

  Jinzi was deeply moved, and his mother was like a meticulous mother who put her first in everything. Jinzi knew that she must be worried about her own safety and afraid of being caught by Lin's family for being out late as an official's daughter...

  "Mom, thank you for your hard work! Today, I couldn't find a carriage to come back, so I waited for a long time and made you worry. I'm really sorry!"

  Mother heard this, slightly stunned, a drop of clear tears fell down, walked to Jin's side, stretched out her hand and gently stroked that soft cheek, choked with sobs: "Lao Nü waited for an entire afternoon, looking left and right without seeing the young lady return, worried that you two had encountered an accident on the road, and having no other choice, could only pray to the gods for blessings, letting the young lady return safely. Fortunately nothing happened, in the future when going out, can't be too late, otherwise, the master of the main courtyard is just looking for a chance to catch our mistakes!"

  "Alright, don't worry, I can handle it! Mom and Xiaoxiao come over together to keep me company for dinner, I like the excitement!"

  The two of them looked at each other and smiled, then gathered around.
