“What are we doing here?”
The carriage entered a small alley in the south of the city and turned into another small alley. Finally, it stopped in front of a small two-story noodle shop.
The noodle shop was a little remote. If not for the fact that she was familiar with the people nearby, not many people would have been able to find it.
Xiao Ruoshui got out of the car and looked at the words “noodle shop” on the sign. She pursed her lips and said, “Noodles please.”!!
With that, she took out a piece of silver from her pouch and was about to give it to the coachman.
Mo Yuan had rushed the family’s carriage to send Brother Hao and the others off, but they had yet to return. Xiao Ruoshui also said that she did not want to take the general’s residence’s carriage, so this carriage was rented.
It was the most ordinary green cloth carriage that Shen Yijia had seen Shen Pingxiu in.
Shen Yijia blinked. “You don’t look like you’re here to eat noodles.” she thought.
Before she could figure out why Xiao Ruoshui brought her here from afar, Shen Yijia quickly snatched the silver from Xiao Ruoshui’s hand. “Wait.”
The coachman’s outstretched hand paused.
Xiao Ruoshui was also a little stunned. Seeing Shen Yijia take out her pouch, she thought that she didn’t want to spend her money.
“Oh my, it’s not much money. I’ll just pay…”
Unexpectedly, before she could finish, Shen Yijia placed her piece of silver into her pouch and counted out 30 copper coins.
“We agreed on thirty copper coins. Count them.” Shen Yijia handed the copper coins to the coachman.
The coachman was speechless.
The corners of Xiao Ruoshui’s mouth twitched. “Shouldn’t you return that silver to me?” she thought.
After paying, Shen Yijia put the pouch back into her pocket with a clear conscience.
The piece of silver that Xiao Ruoshui had given out just now was at least two taels of silver.
The coachman looked at Shen Yijia disdainfully. The carriage did not turn around anymore. The coachman waved his whip and left.
How could a rich family be so stingy? He had learned something new.
“If you don’t have change, tell me. I do.” Shen Yijia patted her chest and said generously.
Xiao Ruoshui was speechless.
There were five or six tables in the lobby of the noodle shop. The two of them found an empty seat and sat down.
At this moment, there were guests sitting inside. Other than the sound of conversation, there was only the sound of noodles being slurped.
Shen Yijia glanced at the bowl in front of the guests at the neighboring table. It did not look especially delicious. It looked ordinary.
Xiao Ruoshui had eaten all kinds of delicious food. How could she have come all the way here just for this bowl of noodles? Shen Yijia was even more certain that she was not here just to eat noodles.
She had a bold guess.
Thinking of that possibility, Shen Yijia widened her eyes and looked around. She leaned in front of Xiao Ruoshui and asked in a low voice, “Could this be your brother’s woman?”
Xiao Ruoshui reached out and covered Shen Yijia’s mouth. She nodded.
After knowing about the existence of such a woman, General Xiao interrogated Xiao Qirui about who she was and where she was.
However, Xiao Qirui refused to say anything even though his back was lacerated by General Xiao.
Xiao Qirui had grown up in the military camp. He was a strict and well-behaved person.
Not to mention how angry General Xiao was, even Xiao Ruoshui found it unbelievable that such a thing had suddenly happened.
Based on her understanding of her brother, she knew that he had an unmarried fiancée. He would definitely not be involved with another woman.
After all, so many years had passed. There was no reason for him to suddenly fall for someone else when she was about to get married.
This was really not something Xiao Qirui would do.
It had to be known that Xiao Qirui was already supposed to be married last year. Back then, the daughter of the Yuan family had to observe the filial piety. Not wanting to delay him, he even asked someone to send a message to the general’s residence to propose an annulment. It was Xiao Qirui who personally told the person who came to pass the message that they could wait.
He said this not because he had feelings for the Yuan family’s girl, but because he was a man of his word.
However, looking at how he protected that woman so tightly, not only did he break his promise, but he was also willing to fall out with his family to protect his love.
It had only been a short while, but the entire Xiao family had already become gloomy because of him. Madam Xiao sighed all day. Because of this, General Xiao did not step into the main courtyard for a few days and stayed in his concubine’s room every day.
That little b*tch, Xiao Ruoqian, was so smug.
Looking at the situation at home, Xiao Ruoshui was extremely anxious.
She knew this place because she interrogated one of Xiao Qirui’s followers last night.
The follower did not dare to tell General Xiao because he was afraid that General Xiao would kill this woman in anger. However, he had no such worries about Xiao Ruoshui.
On the contrary, the follower also hoped that Xiao Ruoshui could persuade Xiao Qirui.
