"He...is a little different from those men..."

Miss Su was not angry because Zhao Hongrun touched her hair without her permission, because she felt that the other person's eyes were not lustful. Although she was eager, she was not like those men who wanted to strip her all over her clothes.

Confucius said that food, sex and nature are.

The real meaning of this sentence is that it is human nature to want to see beautiful things. In the most common words, it is to evaluate a thing based on appearance.

For people, that is to judge people by their appearance.

However, color is not lust. The root of color lies in "can be viewed from a distance but not played with". If beyond this line, it is no longer color, but lust. It means greed, wanting to completely possess something and play with it freely.

Although Zhao Hongrun's eyes were looking at her from beginning to end, he only regarded her as a beautiful thing and purely held an appreciation attitude, which was also the reason why Miss Su was not angry.

On the contrary, she was a little curious and wondered why Mr. Jiang seemed to have not seen a woman in more than ten years.

"Pop wine."

“…”

"Pop wine."

“…”

"Pop wine."

“…”

After half a stick of incense, the two had no communication.

Zhao Hongrun only focused on unilaterally appreciating the beauty who looked like white jade in front of him, and asked the beauty to pour wine on his behalf.

I have to say that the wine filled with Miss Su herself seemed to taste unique.

But his actions made Miss Su feel a little amused.

"Hey, are you finished?"

The little maid Lu'er couldn't help but pick it out and accused him: "My lady has poured more than a dozen cups. You bad guy, who do you treat our lady as?"

"..." Miss Su didn't say anything, just looked at Zhao Hongrun.

It wasn't that she was angry. She just wondered why Mr. Jiang didn't communicate with her in a word. From beginning to end, it seemed that she was regarded as an appreciation object. Although her eyes were not lustful, this kind of cold beauty was still a bit unacceptable.

"Am I just a decoration?"

Miss Su complained in her heart. You should know that the picture of the crane flapping its wings and singing high on the wall that Zhao Hongrun drew on the wall could be said to have touched her heartstrings. Therefore, even if Zhao Hongrun did not really guess her thoughts, she couldn't help but want to know something about Mr. Jiang in front of her.

But unexpectedly, Mr. Jiang was too cold to the beauty, and admired her beauty on his own, but did not communicate with her in any verbal way.

"You guys have worked hard, do you know?"

Zhao Hongrun's words made Miss Su and the little maid Lu'er feel a little unbelievable. Who is too much to think about it?

Although their respective ideas were different, both Miss Su and the little maid Lu'er were so excited by Zhao Hongrun's words that he shouted to catch the thief.

"Why do you say that we are too much? The lady is not a guy in the restaurant, why should you keep pouring wine for you?" the little maid accused angrily.

"Because she lost."

"What's the best way to draw this broken crane? It's as thin as a fire, and it will fall when the wind blows... My lady is just asking you to make a drink... I just pour a glass for you. I didn't expect you to be so shameless. Do you really think my lady is a servant in a restaurant?"

Lu'er's words made Miss Su blush slightly. After all, anyone with some attainment in painting skills can see that the crane painted by Zhao Hongrun is not on the same level as the crane painted by her, and it is simply the difference between a fairy crane and a mortal crane.

Zhao Hongrun looked at Miss Su, and saw that she was blushing and embarrassed, so he didn't say it out loud, and asked curiously: "What do you want?"

Lu'er tilted her head and looked at Zhao Hongrun for a while, and suddenly asked, "Hey, do you have money?"

"So straightforward?"

Zhao Hongrun was a little funny when he heard this: "That depends on how much to ask."

"Ten thousand taels of gold!" Lu'er said arrogantly: "If you have ten thousand taels of gold to redeem the lady, even if the lady pours wine for you for the rest of her life... but do you have it?"

"Hmm?" Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly.

Seeing his frowning action, Miss Su felt a little panicked for some reason, as if out of not wanting to be misunderstood by him, she whispered: "Lu'er, don't talk nonsense!"

She lowered her head, feeling quite ashamed.

However, the little maid Lu'er felt no shame at all and pouted, saying, "Miss, what can't be said? Who doesn't think so about the ladies in the building? If you don't find a suitable rich young man as your destination, are you really going to stay like this for the rest of your life?"

"I see……"

Zhao Hongrun suddenly realized.

But suddenly, he felt a little funny about the little girl's words of asking for a price. Ten thousand taels of gold can be converted into more than 100,000 silver? Even if this Miss Su is made of gold, it is not worth the price, right?

"About one hundred and fifty taels of gold..." he muttered.

"Note: According to Zhao Hongrun's visual observation here, this girl Su is about fifty kilograms (made of old kilograms). Even if it is cast from gold, it is only 144 kilograms of gold."

『??』

Unexpectedly, Miss Su and Lu'er felt a little confused when they heard Zhao Hongrun say this.

At this time, Zhao Hongrun looked up and down at Miss Su for a few minutes, and explained, "I mean... Miss Su is about fifty kilograms, and even if it was made with gold, it is only 150 taels of gold... It's less than two thousand taels of silver... I can still take out these two thousand taels of silver."

Indeed, two thousand taels of silver are probably Zhao Hongrun’s monthly salary for four months. It’s not too much or too little.

"Bah!"

Before Miss Su could react, Lu'er scolded in anger: "You are only worth 2,000 taels! Haven't you ever heard of a beauty priceless? A while ago, a rich child wanted to pay 5,000 taels of silver to redeem the lady, but the manager of Yifang Shuai didn't even look at it."

However, when she said that, she had changed her mind slightly. After all, Zhao Hongrun was very casual when he mentioned two thousand taels of silver, which meant that the other party's family background might not be as she had guessed before.

"But no matter what, ten thousand taels of gold is still too exaggerated?... I wonder how much silver Miss Su owes this water pavilion?"

『Hey? Is this what I want to redeem for me?』

Miss Su was stunned when she heard this, looked up at Zhao Hongrun, and the more she looked at his tender face, the more she felt awkward.

He is fourteen, she is twenty, and he seems to be planning to redeem her at twenty, which seems to be a very awkward thing no matter how you look at it.

After all, in Miss Su's opinion, Mr. Jiang, who was only fourteen years old, was just a child. Can he count his words? "Note: In ancient times, the nobles were twenty-twenty-two-year-old, and the sons of common people became families with fifteen."

But looking at Zhao Hongrun's serious eyes, she clearly told herself not to take it seriously, but her heart was still thumping.

"This... I don't know the specifics, so I have to ask the manager in the building..."

She lowered her head and her cheeks were blushing.

"Well, that's it..." Zhao Hongrun frowned and thought: "Go and ask... If you are doing your best, you should do your best."

He knew that women like this who unfortunately fell to this point would hardly owe much money when they were sold to brothels. The problem was that when they redeem themselves, if the brothels could not make a big profit, they would definitely be stubborn. This is the key.

Of course, as for how to place her after redeeming Miss Su, this is also a problem. You can't secretly hide her in Wenzhao Pavilion, right? If this is found out, the consequences will be much more serious.

But if you ignore it...

Zhao Hongrun looked at the woman in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little moved. After all, a gentle and quiet woman like this has always been the type he admired.

"Oh..." Miss Su replied with a calm sentence, her heart pounding.

But even so, she didn't take it seriously. After all, what a fourteen-year-old child said was really lacking in trust.

It’s not that he doubted the other party’s financial resources. After all, he could say such words casually, almost all the young men from a wealthy family were from a wealthy family. The problem is that even if he had the financial resources to redeem her, he might not necessarily give her a good home.

Her age and her origin are all problems.

Because of this, Miss Su didn't take it seriously, but just thought this young man was quite interesting.

At this time, it was getting late and it was dusk. Shen Yu, the guard of the clan who had not disturbed them from beginning to end, came over and whispered: "Young Master, it's time for us to go back."

"Um."

Zhao Hongrun nodded. Although he also felt that he was reluctant to leave, the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty finally put a ban on him. If he did not return to the palace at dusk, he might confiscate the token in his hand.

"Miss Su, let me go first...Lu Mu."

Zhao Hongrun stood up and saluted Miss Su, then called out the clan guard Lu Mu.

Lu Mu knew that he took out the fifty taels of silver from the package he carried, and arranged neatly on the table, with eight ingots.

Four hundred taels!

Lu'er's eyes widened in surprise, unable to imagine that the Zongwei dressed in an ordinary person was carrying four hundred taels of silver with him.

But when Miss Su saw this scene, she was not very happy.

She bit her lips and whispered: "Is Mr. Jiang a Han Guo slave family?"

That was the first time she looked directly at Zhao Hongrun with unyielding eyes.

Zhao Hongrun seemed to see the stubbornness and humiliation in her eyes. He knew that she had misunderstood and explained with a smile: "Didn't I say I should do my best? Keep these things in charge of this water pavilion... Even if it's as white as a crane, there are times when you have to bow your head and peck in the mud for the sake of dried fruit."

『!!』

Miss Su trembled all over when she heard this, and looked at Zhao Hongrun's back as she turned around and left in disbelief. She felt unable to calm down for a long time.

"He... guessed it?"

"What did you guess?" Lu'er was happily packing up the ingots of silver at this time, rubbing her face with the ingots of silver as if she was infatuated.

Miss Su ignored her little maid and just couldn't help but look at the painting painted by Zhao Hongrun on the wall, and looked at the rising sun that was born with the clouds, and was distracted and dazed.

After a long time, she sighed quietly.

"I'm sorry that you are born late, six cold, summer, autumn and winter..."

At the same time, in the Chugong Hall in the palace, the eunuch Tong Xian was bowing his head and reporting to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the Eighth Highness guessed that the old slave would send the inner prisoner to follow him, so…"

"Are you lost?" The Emperor of Wei interrupted casually.

"Yes..." Tong Xian lowered his head.

"Then the rebellious son would guess, it's not surprising." The emperor said lightly: "You send more people tomorrow. I must know what he did when he left the palace every day."

"yes."
