Chapter 124 Oh! Where are my jelly beans?
Pearl was sitting at the back of the carriage, so dim that only her outline could be seen. Jiang Yunqi felt a little disappointed. However, the silhouette of her with her head slightly lowered was still so beautiful that Jiang Yunqi could not take his eyes away for a moment.
Hua Lei covered her mouth with her hands and smiled secretly, pretending to be casual. She pushed open the small window on the wall of the carriage behind her and lifted the hanging curtain. The carriage suddenly became much brighter.
Rong Jue, who was sitting opposite, also grumbled, "It's so stuffy," and pushed open the small window behind him and lifted the curtain. The carriage suddenly became bright.
Zhenzhu turned her head slightly and glared at Hualei who was sitting outside, but she saw Jiang Yunqi's squinting eyes looking at her with a slight smile. Zhenzhu blushed and lowered her head again in a hurry.
"Brother Jiang, we're leaving first. See you later." Rong Jin slammed the door of the carriage shut, decisively and mercilessly blocking Jiang Yunqi's reluctant look.
The carriage began to move slowly. Hualei saw Jiang Yunqi standing there in a daze through the open window, and quietly nudged Zhenzhu's arm with her elbow.
Zhenzhu turned her head slightly and saw Jiang Yunqi, who was already dozens of meters away, still standing there straight, staring at his carriage in a daze.
My heart couldn't help but soften, and as if possessed by a ghost, I stretched my hand out of the small window and shook it gently. The handkerchief in my hand fluttered in the wind like a small flag.
Jiang Yunqi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he waved his hand vigorously in the direction of the carriage. Hua Lei couldn't help laughing.
"Ahem..." Rong Jin coughed lightly and glared at Zhenzhu. Zhenzhu sat up straight in embarrassment.
Hualei reached out secretly through the cover of her sleeve, held Zhenzhu's hand, and squeezed it gently, and they smiled at each other. The curtain blown by the wind covered Zhenzhu's shy face.
The carriage turned a corner, and Jiang Yunqi's figure finally disappeared at the corner of the street.
"Sister Zhenzhu, you were so rude just now. How could you do that? You will make Mr. Jiang think you are very reckless." Han Qingge glanced at Zhenzhu and then glared at Hualei.
"You are the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's family. You are not one of those uneducated country girls who can do whatever you want. If your aunt knew your behavior today, she would be so disappointed. Don't let anyone lead you astray." Han Qingge said seriously.
She had just seen the angry expression on Rong Jin's face. Since her cousin was too embarrassed to point it out, she would help him and be the bad guy.
Xiaoyuan glanced at Han Qingge, then looked at Rong Jin who was sitting outside, and pursed his lips.
Hualei lowered her head and said nothing, feeling guilty.
"Sister Hua, do you think you..."
"Hey, where are my candies? Sister Hua, where are the two cans of candies you bought for me? Why are they gone? Did they fall into the Eight Immortals House? Or the Golden Jade House? Xiaoyuan, have you seen my two cans of candies?"
Rong Jue, who was sitting opposite him, suddenly started to shout and began to look around for his two cans of jelly beans. He didn't realize that he had interrupted Han Qingge.
"It should be in the carriage behind, in the hands of Qingmu Qingyue." Xiaoyuan said.
"Did you see it? Are you sure?" Rong Jue asked.
"Well, when we came out of Helin Street, there was no room here, and I saw Qingmu put the candy beans on the carriage at the back." Xiaoyuan replied.
"Oh, that's good, it's good that they're not lost." Rong Jue seemed to be relieved, turned around and asked Hua Lei, "Sister Hua, can I put the two cans of sugar beans in Xiaoyuan's yard later? I can go to Xiaoyuan's yard to get them when I want to eat them in the future.
Otherwise, if my mother saw that I had so many candies, she would definitely confiscate them all from me." Rong Jue asked Hua Lei for her consent with a smile.
Hua Lei smiled, "Okay, no problem, as long as Xiao Yuan agrees, I have no problem with it. But even if you eat it secretly, no more than three a day, and you have to rinse your mouth after each meal, otherwise you will get cavities. If you get cavities, it will be ugly in the future." Hua Lei took care of Rong Jue.
"Yeah, I know this. My mother said so. If I eat too much candy, not only will my teeth hurt, but they will also get cavities. Then I won't be able to marry a good-looking wife. I can only marry a fat, ugly and fierce wife." Rong Jue said seriously.
"Hahaha, Rong Jue, you are so young and you already want to get married. I will tell Fourth Aunt when I go back and see what she will do to you." Zhenzhu laughed heartily again.
"Ah, no, Sister Zhenzhu, I'm telling you, don't tell my mother. Last month, my aunt joked with my mother that she wanted to send my cousin to the Marquis' Mansion. She said that she wanted my cousin and I to be childhood sweethearts.
You have seen my cousin, right? She came to the mansion during the Chinese New Year, and she was this fat." Rong Jue gestured on his body. "And her eyes are so small." Rong Jue used his fingers to pinch a thin slit at his eyes and gestured.
"Not only is she ugly, but she's also extremely greedy. She always steals my candies and makes a scene if I don't give her any. My mother has scolded me several times for a few candies. I don't want that." Rong Jue looked horrified. "I hate cousins the most. Xiaoyuan, do you know what my cousin's name is?" Rong Jue suddenly changed the subject.
Xiao Yuan looked at Rong Jue and said speechlessly, "How should I know your cousin's name? I have never seen her."
"Oh, that's right, you went back to Qingyun Lane the last time my cousin came." Rong Jue suddenly realized. "Let me tell you, what is my cousin's name?
Her last name is Ruan, and her name is Ruan Meizi. Hahaha, Ruan Meizi, if plums are soft, they will be rotten, right? Such an ugly name. But my mother still insisted that this name was good. Xiaoyuan, do you think this name is funny?"
Before she knew it, the "golden words" that Han Qingge had been eager to say were completely diverted by Rong Jue, and all of them went back into her stomach.
Hualei smiled when she heard Ruan Meizi. Isn't this the same pronunciation as the "soft girl" that was used to praise gentle and lovely girls in the previous life? Ruan Meizi, soft girl. She is really cute.
"Sister Hua, you also think it's not nice, right?" Rong Jue opened up his chatterbox nature again. "I think my name is the best, Rong Jue, Rong... Jue. Rong means to accommodate, to hold, to have a sense of tolerance, and to be tolerant is to be great. Jue means two pieces of beautiful jade put together, which means double preciousness and double beauty. Sister Hua, isn't my name nice to hear?" Rong Jue looked like he was begging for confirmation.
