CH 60.4

Ao Er felt that he was flattering in the right place: "Really, those girls and ge’ers in flower houses are not like women from good families. They have seen countless people. What kind of people who will pay to find them? How can they be satisfied with the elderly master and the weak-boned young master who is like a scholar raised in a silver nest. "    

Ao Er laughed and said: "They just like someone like Brother Zhang who is young and strong, and he is not easy to mess with at first glance. "

Xu He remembered that Zhang Fangyuan said a few words to him before (ZFY said some little widows like to buy meat from his stall), he thought he was just bragging, and he didn't take it to heart.

Now there were only one word in his mind: Mistake.

Suddenly he was a little angry.

Ao Er didn't know why, and seemed to realize something again, so he quickly covered his mouth. Seeing that Xu He stood up without saying a word, he became like the withdrawn person in the mouth of the villagers again. After thinking about saying something to remedy it, Xu He turned and walked back.

"Sister-in-law, I knew you won't take it to heart..."

Xu He took the plate of melon seeds seeds away.

"Hey, hey!"

Ao Er slapped his thigh hard.

Ao Er still didn't leave in the afternoon, he was drowsy outside with the wind blowing under the shade of the trees, and he met three men waiting for others. They sat around a table and played dice all afternoon. Zhang Fangyuan wouldn’t let people gamble here, so they played very small, and the wins and losses were not big.

After the men left, Ao Er didn't see Xu He came out to chat with him again, and he didn't dare to talk to him. If he went to Zhang Fangyuan to accuse him, he was the one who would be unlucky. It could be seen from this situation that if Xu He quarrelled with Zhang Fangyuan because of flower house’s matter, if Zhang Fangyuan found out who leaked the truth, then he would be out of luck.

He needed to worry about this matter~

Later, when the sun was about to set, Zhang Fangyuan drove the carriage back.

After half a day, Zhang Fangyuan finally come back, Ao Er immediately greeted him enthusiastically.

Zhang Fangyuan jumped down from the carriage, and was about to call Xu He cheerfully with a heavy burden on his shoulders. When he saw that it was Ao Er who was rushing towards him, he was obviously upset: "What are you doing here again, kid?"

"Have some wine."

Zhang Fangyuan was in a good mood, and didn't want to talk about it, so he just left him and went to the room.

"Brother, brother! I want to tell you about something."

Zhang Fangyuan said impatiently, "I have nothing to say to you."

Ao Er whispered: "It's about you visiting the flower house."

Zhang Fangyuan Immediately stopped walking, and he gave Ao Er a warning look: "It's best to think clearly before speaking."

"Who knows, people come and go in the city, and when they see something, they will talk about it when they come back. I definitely don't dare to talk nonsense. If I talk nonsense, my father will know that I also go to the city."

Zhang Fangyuan breathed out his nostrils and waved his hand: "Forget it, I see.”

Ao Er quickly responded, and immediately relaxed: "Brother, I’m going back."

Zhang Fangyuan carried the bag containing the money to the tea shed. He was going to get the money tomorrow, but Jiu Niang sent him the message again saying that the money was ready, and he didn't want to wait any longer, so he made an extra trip and came back on horseback to send the fragrance dew.

At this moment, he was not in a hurry to ask Xu He to count the money, and he kept thinking about something.

Yesterday he felt that something was wrong with Xu He, but he didn't make a random guess, but sure enough there was really a bastard who liked to start doing shameful thing.

Xu He definitely knew about the gossip in the village, but... why didn't he ask yesterday?

Zhang Fangyuan was agitated, he strode to the kitchen, grabbed Xu He's wrist and dragged him to the back room, and slammed the latch on the door.

"What, what are you doing?"

Zhang Fangyuan looked at the person and said, "I already know."

"What do you know?"

Zhang Fangyuan said, "It’s about those gossiping women in the village saying that I went to a flower house again."

Xu He raised his eyes and glanced at the man, as if he was still a little angry, he nodded: "Yeah."

"I went there, but I didn't mess around."

Xu He didn't answer, but some of the initial unhappiness disappeared in this rebuttal, and he nodded again: "Yeah."

"Then why don’t you ask me when you know?"

"I wanted to ask. But... I believe you."

Xu He felt that it was very sensational to say these things suddenly, and he was very uncomfortable, so he said, "Didn't you go there earlier?, to buy something."

"I went there, but this time I didn’t go to buy something."

Xu He was stunned: " That's okay."

Zhang Fangyuan suddenly laughed when he heard the words, and he rubbed the back of Xu He's hand. He was very happy that Xu He trusted him, after all, his reputation was too bad before.

But when he was happy, he thought again "It's okay, do you just believe everything? Are you really not unhappy at all?"

"Do you think I'm unhappy?"

Zhang Fangyuan flattered him, "You should be a little unhappy, right?"

"Then, a little bit." In fact, it was just a little bit, and he didn't take it too seriously. he just chatted with a little bastard he didn't know well.

Zhang Fangyuan was even happier, he hugged Xu He's waist, and picked him up easily, making Xu He felt that he was actually not very tall and heavy, just like ordinary small ge’er.

"Although it's not for buying somehing, it's for selling."

Zhang Fangyuan put down Xu He, he brought the bag over, untied the bag, and suddenly several large lumps of silver were exposed, weighing around twelve catties.

"Where did you get so much money!"
