Chapter 72: I Really Thought the Whole World Revolved Around You
Zhao Lang raised his head, and saw a beautiful woman standing beside him, looking at him prettyly.
Next to it was a little maid.
The whole body reveals this ladylike temperament, which makes people feel extremely comfortable.
If it was Zhao Lang from before, he might be a little embarrassed.
But after being served by Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu for so long, there is Ji Wushuang, who looks so evil, on Zhuangzi.
Zhao Lang already had the ability to resist, and smiled generously,
"Is the girl talking to me?"
The woman nodded, and returned playfully,
"Young master, can you see that there are other people around?"
Zhao Lang spread his hands and said,
"I don't have any water with me."
The woman laughed,
"Young master's Zhuangzi is at the side, are you just being stingy with this bowl of water?"
Zhao Lang raised his eyebrows slightly, the other party came prepared.
Of course, he is not false, this is his territory.
It's just a woman, how can she eat him up.
straight to the point,
"If the girl doesn't dislike it, follow me back to Zhuangzi."
The woman agreed immediately.
This made Zhao Lang even more sure that the other party came prepared. You must know that although Daqin is different from men and women, it is not as strict as in later generations.
But it is not common for a woman to go back directly with someone, even after two thousand years.
On the way back, Zhao Lang asked casually,
"I don't know the girl's name yet."
"My lord calls me Li Ling'er, have you asked me yet?"
"Zhao Lang."
The two returned to Zhuangzi all the way.
Zhao Lang directly asked Wangcai to bring water over.
Watching the other party gulp down his drink, Zhao Lang smiled. He wanted to see what Li Linger would do next.
"The water in the son's house seems to be different from that in other places."
Li Linger said.
"Well, the water has been boiled."
The old god Zhao Lang explained.
He had already told Zhuangzi's people to drink only boiled water.
"I see."
Li Linger nodded thoughtfully, and then said very simply,
"Thank you son for the water, I've been out for a long time, so don't bother me."
"My house is not far away in Lijiazhuang. If you are thirsty someday, you can come to drink a bowl of water."
After speaking, he saluted and left.
Zhao Lang was taken aback by the other party's straightforward appearance.
After Li Linger left, Zhao Lang called Wangcai over and asked,
"Is there a Li family village near us?"
Wangcai thought about it for a while, and said,
"Yes, young master, it's just to the north of our Zhuangzi, not far away."
"However, this Zhuangzi seems to have changed owners recently. I heard that there is also a very beautiful girl in this family."
Zhao Lang was shocked immediately,
"You are in Zhuangzi every day, how do you know this?"
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Wangcai's face, and he said,
"My lord, it's those slaves who like to chew their tongues, I've heard that too."
Zhao Lang then frowned and asked,
"Is it common to borrow water to drink on weekdays?"
Wangcai looked at Zhao Lang, and then thought about what Li Linger borrowed water to drink just now.
Seems to understand something, Wangcai said with a smile,
"Isn't it common for passers-by to borrow a bowl of water to drink when they are thirsty? There is water at the gate of Zhuangzi all year round. Everyone does this."
"My lord, it's only right to help each other when you're away from home."
Zhao Lang was so choked up by Wangcai's words that he couldn't speak.
He knew what Wangcai said was right. Two thousand years later, this custom still exists in some rural areas.
He also thought in his mind, the road does not pick up lost things,
Do not close the door at night, neighbors help these words.
"My son, what's the matter with you?"
Seeing that Zhao Lang's expression was not right, Wangcai asked with concern.
"nothing."
Zhao Lang waved his hand and said,
"You go to work."
After Wangcai left, Zhao Lang smiled and said in a self-deprecating manner,
"Zhao Lang, Zhao Lang, others are just thirsty, borrowing a bowl of water to drink, it's just a normal communication between neighbors."
"But you are suspicious, and you really think that the whole world revolves around you."
But you can't blame him entirely, Zhao Lang went to the city when he grew up in his previous life, and if you were thirsty, you wanted to borrow a bowl of water to drink.
There is a high probability that the other party will just give you a blank stare, and then ask you to buy water in the shops all over the street.
There is no right or wrong, times are different.
It's just that Zhao Lang was a little emotional.
Being despised by the servant, Zhao Lang's mood suddenly became a little ugly.
I'm going to go around Zhuangzi, it's best to ask someone for trouble, to divert my pain.
But it's a pity that the servants on Zhuangzi are more serious than one in their work.
Zhao Lang was very disappointed.
Soon, he saw Young Master Gao holding a letter in his hand, standing in the yard with a puzzled and painful face.
Gongzi Gao was very troubled at this time, and he spent all his savings to buy the naming rights of Xinli.
Thinking of dedicating it to Qin Shihuang to please him.
Unexpectedly, a letter that could be regarded as a reprimand came.
This made him extremely uncomfortable.
But Zhao Lang suddenly regained his spirits.
It's like, I'm unlucky, as long as someone is more unlucky than you.
In fact, your situation has not improved, but you feel better for no reason.
"Young Master Gao, why bother?"
Zhao Lang approached and asked.
When Young Master Gao heard the voice, he quickly put away the letter, put on a smiling face, and said,
"It's nothing, my father sent me a letter."
Before Zhao Lang could ask any more questions, Young Master Gao said,
"Girl Lang, I still have class to attend, so I left first."
After speaking, he left in a hurry.
Zhao Lang could only shout from a distance,
"Young Master Gao, don't forget to send the money over as soon as possible."
Gong Zigao's back suddenly stopped for a moment, and then he quickened his pace and left.
If you can't see it as lively, you can't transfer the pain.
At this time, Wangcai appeared in front of him again and said,
"My lord, the Patriarch has a letter and it has been delivered to your room."
"Well, I see."
When Zhao Lang heard the news about Daddy Cheap, he immediately regained his spirits.
When I returned to the room, I saw a letter and several small boxes in the room.
After reading the letter, Zhao Lang's eyes lit up immediately,
"Another golden ten thousand taels?"
Zhao Lang opened a box, looked at the golden nuggets, his mood became much more beautiful,
"Dad, don't worry, for the sake of gold, I will definitely give you retirement."
Just as Zhao Lang was counting the gold with delight, inside the Xianyang Imperial Palace.
Young Master Fusu was frowning as he looked at the accounts in the palace, and asked the servant beside him,
"The inner government withdrew 10,000 taels of gold today, why?"
The servant returns,
"It's an order from His Majesty, sent to a manor outside the city."
"The Zhuangzi outside the city?"
Prince Fusu asked,
"Is it the house where Hu Hai and the others went?"
The ministers didn't know that so many princes and daughters were sent outside the city, but he, the prince, still knew.
Fusu thought for a while and said,
"When the government affairs are not busy in a few days, we will go out of the city to have a look."
