Ci Jinzhi Chapter 31

  Chapter 31 Please

  Duan Yunling was a little surprised: "What does Cousin Qing want from me?"

  She couldn't think of anything she could do to help Cousin Qing.

  In the past two days, she repeatedly recalled how her aunt was divorced, and felt that Cousin Qing was wrong.

  Cousin Qing said that this result is inseparable from her bravery. Actually no, she is cowardly, timid and selfish, it was Cousin Qing who gave her courage.

   Cousin Qing is such a powerful person, do you need her help?

   "Has Duan Yunhua ever looked for you?"

  Duan Yunling was even more surprised.

   Listening to Cousin Qing addressing Second Sister, is this completely deadlocked?

  Xin You looked calm: "Mrs. Qiao was divorced because of me. No matter what is right or what is wrong, Duan Yunhua hates me to the bone. Since she hates me, I naturally don't want to see her."

  She said it so confidently, Duan Yunling thought it made sense for a while, and it took a while to realize that it seemed inappropriate.

  Cousin Qing has a stalemate with her father and second sister, which is not good.

  If it was changed before, Duan Yunling would only think about it in his heart, but now he said it euphemistically.

   "Cousin Ling, tell me first, has Duan Yunhua come to see you?" Xin You shook Duan Yunling's hand to express her appreciation.

  Although many people saw what happened in the garden that day, Duan Yunhua didn't hear it because the old lady had issued a password-locked order. As for the confrontation between Xin You and Duan Shaoqing in Ruyi Hall, even fewer people knew about it.

  Duan Yunhua wanted to figure it out, but he hit a wall with her, so he had to come to Duan Yunling.

   "Second Sister hasn't been here yet." Duan Yun's heart moved, and he consciously guessed what Xin You was worried about, and said immediately, "Cousin Qing, don't worry, if Second Sister asks about that day, I won't talk about it."

  If the second sister knew that it was Cousin Qing who forced her father to divorce his wife, with the second sister's temper, she wouldn't fight directly.

   "On the contrary, if Duan Yunhua asks you about the situation that day, you should remember to tell her that uncle originally wanted Mrs. Qiao to stay in Yaxin Garden to pray, but I refused to agree. I have to divorce Mrs. Qiao."

  Duan Yunling was stunned: "Cousin Qing, I don't understand..."

  Xin You's expression became serious: "Cousin Ling, I'm not joking, but I need your help. As for the reason, it's not convenient to say for now, but you will understand later."

  Duan Yunling thought about it carefully, but still couldn't figure out the reason for Xin You to do so, and asked, "Cousin Qing, are you sure there will be no trouble?"

  Xin You nodded.

   "Well, if the second sister asks, I will say what my cousin said."

   "Thank you, Cousin Ling."

  Duan Yunling's eyes fell on the travel notes Xin You brought, and asked casually: "Cousin Qing is going out today, did you go to a bookstore?"

   "Yes, I went to Qingsong Bookstore and bought a book."

   "Why doesn't my cousin go to Yaxin Bookstore?"

  Because of the blood-stained "Peony Tale", Xin You was very happy to chat about the bookstores in Beijing, and she swallowed the words she was about to leave: "Cousin Ling likes to go to Yaxin Bookstore?"

  Duan Yunling said with a smile: "At first I liked to go to Qingsong Bookstore, but Mr. Pingan wrote books for Yaxin Bookstore later, so I changed to Yaxin Bookstore. Anyway, this kind of big bookstores are similar, so it's better to see who has good books."

   "Mr. Pingan is so powerful?"

Duan Yunling's eyes became eager: "Mr. Ping'an is the best at writing strange stories. Last year's "Peony Tale" probably everyone who can read in Beijing has a copy. After transferring to Yaxin Bookstore, he wrote "Spiritual Fox Tale", which is also very good-cousin wait."

  The little girl ran to Westinghouse, and quickly brought a book over: "Cousin Qing, you haven't read it yet, have you?"

   "I haven't remembered many things. Did I like reading story books before?"

  Duan Yunling shook his head: "Cousin, you don't think much of these things."

  This answer was a bit unexpected for Xinyou. Seeing Xiaolian's familiarity with the price of dialogue books, she thought that Miss Kou would also like to read them.

   "Cousin, look at it, it's really beautiful." Duan Yunling stuffed "Linghu Ji" into Xinyou's hands.

  Xin You didn't refuse: "Okay, I'll go back and have a look. Cousin Ling, you said Mr. Ping'an's "The Peony" is bought by almost everyone who can read, is it so popular?"

"It's very popular. Those friends I often deal with will be laughed at if they don't have a copy of "The Story of Peony"." Duan Yunling stroked his forehead, "Cousin, you haven't read "The Story of Peony", right? I'll get it for you take."

  Speaking of this, Duan Yunling pursed her lips in embarrassment: "Cousin, remember to return it to me after reading it. If you lose it, you won't be able to buy it."

  Xin You's heart moved, and he asked calmly: "Isn't "The Story of Peony" printed by Qingsong Bookstore? Why can't you buy it?"

  Duan Yunling shook his head: "That's not clear, anyway, Qingsong Bookstore didn't sell it."

  Xin You made a note secretly, and stood up holding the book: "I'll read "The Spirit Fox" first, and if I like this kind of story, I'll borrow "The Peony" from my cousin."

   Xu Shi talked about his favorite topic, and Duan Yunling relaxed his tone: "Cousin Qing, go slowly."

  Back to Wanqingju, Xinyou asked Xiaolian: "Miss Kou, don't you like reading storybooks?"

Xiao Lian nodded, shook her head again, and explained to Xin You's suspicious eyes: "The girl doesn't watch it. But the servant girl thinks that the girl doesn't like to watch it, but that she shouldn't watch it. Because the old lady once said that girls don't watch it. You need to look at some messy temperament. The girl... especially listens to the old lady's words..."

   Thinking of Duan Yunling's obsession with the dialogue book, Xin You sighed for Kou Qingqing.

  Duan Yunling, a concubine who lives under the strict mother-in-law, dare not listen to the old lady? But I also know that these trivial things, in fact, the elders just smack their lips, and it doesn't really matter.

  But Kou Qingqing didn't touch her because her grandmother said it casually, for fear of being criticized badly. This girl who lives so carefully, the man-eating Shaoqing Mansion can't tolerate her life.

   "What about you, Xiaolian? Can you read a script?"

   "The servant girl listens more. The second son always buys books with all his pocket money, and when the new book comes out and runs out of money, he has the cheek to ask our girl to borrow it..." Xiaolian said, her eyes were sore again.

  It turned out that the days when she laughed and scolded the second son for beating the autumn wind were so short.

   "Then do you know why Qingsong Bookstore no longer sells "The Story of Peony"?"

   "The servant girl doesn't know. Do you want to buy a new one? Maybe the second son knows, or we can go directly to Qingsong Bookstore and ask the shopkeeper. The servant girl looks very talkative to the shopkeeper today."

  Xin You nodded, and opened "Linghu Ji" to read.

  After finishing a book, she was a little disappointed.

  The story is not ugly, but it is not much different from "The Peony Story". Both are beauties who want to die or love scholars, but one is a flower demon and the other is a fox fairy.

   "Doesn't the girl like to watch it?" Xiaolian asked wonderingly.

   "The two stories are similar, a little boring."

   "No way." The little maid opened her eyes wide in shock, "A flower demon, a fox fairy!"

  Xin You: "..."

   Thank you for being the helmsman of Xiaoyouzi, and thank you for the book friends who rewarded and voted.
