Chapter 2 Trailing all the way
Xiao Siyi's attitude was very kind, but the woman still looked straight at her as if she couldn't hear anything.
As the most beautiful woman in the capital, Xiao Siyi has experienced too much attention from others over the years, but this woman gave her a completely different feeling.
Unlike those prostitutes who covet beauty, nor like those envious and jealous women, his eyes are full of inquiry and even a trace of desire.
Just as Lan Fu was about to get angry, Qi Zhen said impatiently: "You woman are so rude!"
Xiao Siyi grabbed her and said to Lan Fu: "Uncle Fu, let someone take her down and put her in a safe place. Maybe she will be fine in a few days."
Lanford winked at a steward.
The little steward raised his hand and said to the woman, "Let me go."
The woman pursed her lips, but did not resist. After looking at Xiao Siyi again, she followed the steward and left obediently.
Qi Zhen looked away and said, "What's going on with this woman? That look in her eyes made me feel very scared."
Only then did Lan Fu inform the two of them about the woman's behavior after arriving at the shrine.
Qi Zhen was confused and said: "She refuses to wash and change clothes, but she is picky about food and bedding... Is she crazy?
Also, I don’t know if you have noticed that although her face is full of dirt, her eyes are very beautiful."
Xiao Siyi said: "This woman may have been stimulated by something before. Uncle Fu asked someone to take more care of her. If there is anything unusual, report it in time."
"Yes, County Lord." Lanfu responded and led the two of them to the small courtyard where he usually handles official business.
Xiao Siyi checked the account books for the past month and went to the warehouse with Qi Zhen.
About an hour later, the two left the shantang.
As the carriage passed Ruyi Tower, the aroma of food wafted into the carriage, and Qi Zhen felt his stomach twitch.
"County Lord, how about we have lunch here?" she suggested.
Xiao Siyi smiled and said with a chuckle: "No wonder you and my Xiaojiu are so good friends. They even have the same temperament."
"Come on, let's go, I'm treating you." Qi Zhen took her hand.
Xiao Siyi originally planned to go back home for lunch, but Qi Zhen's proposal also made her a little tempted.
Since she was diagnosed with pregnancy last year, she has reduced the number of times she goes out, and she never dines out in a restaurant.
Yuchiyang was frugal by nature, but he was most willing to spend money on his mother-in-law and wife.
The chef in the house was hired by him at a high price, and the daily ingredients were kept fresh and carefully prepared according to the taste of the mother and daughter.
Especially after Xiao Siyi became pregnant, she took even more meticulous care.
But always eating at home will inevitably lose the freshness.
Seeing that his county master did not refuse, Shen Yan quickly opened the curtain and got out of the carriage.
The group of people walked into Ruyi Building and followed the waiter's second brother to the private room on the second floor.
Xiao Siyi and Qi Zhen sat opposite each other, while the maids gathered at another table outside.
The food was served quickly, and Qi Zhen personally served Xiao Siyi a bowl of soup.
Xiao Siyi thanked her and said with a smile: "Aren't you hungry? Just stop looking after me."
Qi Zhen served himself a bowl of soup and sighed before saying: "I just heard you mention Master Jiu. I really miss her. There is also Xiaohan. I don't know how she has been doing in the past two years..."
Except for a few people in Duke Dingguo's mansion, no one else knew the whereabouts of Xiao Bi and Hua Xiaohan.
Even Zhao Zhaozhao, Qi Zhen and others who were very close to them thought they were still in Tianshui County.
Xiao Siyi said: "Tianshui County is too far away from the capital, so it is not easy to go back and forth.
Moreover, their husbands are both military generals, and they shoulder the responsibility of guarding the territory and strengthening the borders, so they cannot leave easily."
Qi Zhen said: "These people we grew up with are now married to their own families. It is impossible to imagine getting together to have fun in the past."
"Why are you suddenly feeling sad? The capital is their natal home after all, and they will always come back.
Then everyone will make an appointment to get together..."
Xiao Siyi could no longer persuade her.
After a woman gets married and becomes a mother, even if they can still get together, the topics they talk about are all about their husband and children, and they can never regain the feeling they had before.
Qi Zhen said: "Jiuye has lofty ambitions and great abilities, which are beyond the reach of ordinary women like us.
I'm just worried about Xiaohan. There has been no explanation for the case of Wenyuan Houfu. She has been weak since she was a child, how can she bear it? "
Xiao Siyi said: "The Hua family's affairs cannot continue like this, there will always be an explanation.
As for Xiaohan, Mr. Huan San treats her very well, and Xiaojiu is taking care of her, so don’t worry too much."
"County Master, if you have any news about them, you must let me know. Zhaozhao also misses them very much."
"Don't worry, I will."
After lunch, the two of them took the maids out of Ruyi Building.
"Azhen, are you still going back to the uncle's house?" Xiao Siyi asked.
Qi Zhen said: "No, my mother-in-law is still waiting for the cotton clothes."
"Then let's see you tomorrow. I'll leave first." Xiao Siyi smiled and got into her carriage.
Just after noon, it is the busiest time of the day.
The speed of the carriage could not be compared with that in the morning. It took more than half an hour to get back to Qiyunfang with stops and stops along the way.
Shen Yan pushed the sleepy Xiao Siyi.
"County Lord, wake up, you're home."
Xiao Siyi pressed her temples and took her hand to get out of the car.
Just as he was about to enter the mansion, he heard a guard shout loudly: "Who are you and why are you following us all the way?"
The master and servant turned around together and saw a tall woman in green clothes walking out of a side alley with her head lowered.
"Is it you?" Xiao Siyi saw her appearance clearly and raised her voice.
It turned out that this woman was the strange woman in the shrine before.
At this time, she had been cleaned and her hair was neatly combed.
Although she is wearing a coarse cloth dress and is not young at all, her appearance is outstanding.
As Qi Zhen said just now, her eyes are very clear in black and white, which is not consistent with her age.
She quickened her steps and walked up to Xiao Siyi, but she did not salute, she just lowered her head slightly and said, "Madam, is she the County Princess Yunxi of Dingguo Palace?"
Shen Yan was a little dissatisfied and said, "How come you, a woman, don't understand any etiquette? I didn't argue with you before when we were in the shantang. Is this still the case now?"
Xiao Siyi said: "That's all, this sister-in-law is older than my mother, so there is no need to care about it so much."
Shen Yan pouted and said no more.
Xiao Siyi added: "I am the head of Yunxi County. My sister-in-law has been following me all the way here. Do you want anything from me?"
The woman raised her eyes and looked at her: "Is the county owner's husband's surname Weichi?"
Shen Yan couldn't bear it anymore.
This woman is really sick!
Who among the people in the capital does not know that the husband of Yunxi County Lord was captured by General Yuchi, the commander of Peking University Camp.
