Chapter 556: Where Did the Rumors Come From?
"You say, isn't this Hou Ye a shallow blessing?"
"Who's to say it isn't!"
"When this marquis has a crippled leg, he can still marry the royal daughter of His Majesty who is in exile, and now that his legs and feet are good, what kind of woman does he want?"
"That's right! That's the truth! Tell me, the eldest lady of the General's Mansion can be regarded as the queen of the general's door, and she is also the lord of Nanyang specially sealed by His Majesty!
"So the Hou Ye is so blessed! Marrying the princess doesn't count, but you have to accept the county lord! Tell me, this one is the princess, and the other is the county lord! This Nanyang County is mainly really into the Hou Mansion! Are these two people on an equal footing? Or is the county lord being a child! Hahaha......
In the teahouse on the side of the road, there were three or four people sitting around the table, some talking and laughing, and one was happy!
Originally, Pei Qingqing didn't care about this kind of gossip after tea and dinner, even if she heard it, she just regarded it as a wind in her ears, with her left ear in and her right ear out.
However, the words 'Nanyang County Lord' immediately caught her attention.
Nanyang County Lord, isn't that Huo Xiaoya?
And listening to the gossip of those few people, the protagonist is still the Hou Mansion?
To be precise, it is Hou Ye.
That is, her man, Bai Zimo.
Good guys, what is this all about?
actually said that Bai Zimo wanted Huo Xiaoya to enter the mansion?
What is this?
No, I should ask, where did all these gossip come from?!
It's outrageous!
"Sister Qing, what did they say...... It seems to be Hou Ye?" Obviously, Yao Lang also heard the words of those people.
After all, those people laughed a little too loudly!
"......" Pei Qingqing choked speechlessly, and glanced at Yao Lang with slanted eyes.
She is not deaf, of course she can hear those people talking about Bai Zimo!
After reading Pei Qingqing's eyes, Yao Lang closed his mouth with interest.
However, he has an impression of the Nanyang County Lord in those people.
It's not that he hasn't seen Huo Xiaoya in the Hou Mansion, although he is not very familiar with Huo Xiaoya, but Yao Lang knows that she is the Nanyang County Lord in those mouths!
But...... What is the county lord of Nanyang, isn't it Pei Qingqing's good friend and sister?
How could you be ...... with Master Hou?
It can only be said that although the medicine doll has grown a lot, it still understands too little about this kind of thing between men and women, especially between women.
Yao Lang only thought about it, and what he heard from those people in the teahouse was that Bai Zimo wanted to take the county lord of Nanyang as a concubine...... What does it mean?
Thinking of this, the corners of Yao Lang's almost invisible mouth twitched.
Sneaking a glance at Pei Qingqing's face, it is true that there is no good face!
Of course Pei Qingqing doesn't really care about these gossips, she knows very well what kind of person Huo Xiaoya is.
Naho Xiaoya is a concubine! These people also speak out!
Pei Qingqing is not ordinary speechless, she really doubts, where did these rumors come from?
It's not outrageous!
If she hadn't gone out of the house today, she wouldn't have known that there were such rumors circulating outside?
Bai Zimo and Huo Xiaoya didn't tell her either.
No one told her about it!
However, Pei Qingqing also knew that Bai Zimo didn't tell her because they didn't take these gossips to heart at all.
It's just that these rumors won't damage Huo Xiaoya's reputation?
She and Bai Zimo don't care, they are always a legitimate husband and wife.
But Huo Xiaoya is different.
She is the eldest lady of the General's Mansion, a famous general's daughter after a loyal minister, and the lord of Nanyang County, who was specially sealed by Emperor Qian.
Reputation is still very important for a girl who has not been out of the cabinet.
Especially Huo Xiaoya is not an ordinary girl.
Did someone maliciously slander this rumor? Or did it come out unintentionally?
If someone maliciously slanders Huo Xiaoya's reputation, then who will this person be?
If it was unintentional, it might be because Huo Xiaoya often went in and out of the Hou Mansion.
It is undeniable that Huo Xiaoya's entry and exit from the Hou Mansion is like a common thing.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he regards the Hou Mansion as his second home.
Pei Qingqing thought, could it be because of this that this kind of rumor was unintentionally spread?
Thinking about it, where can Pei Qingqing still sit still?!
As soon as he opened the curtain in front of him, he said in a low voice, "Turn around, let's go to the General's Mansion!"
The coachman didn't speak, just nodded, indicating that he obeyed Pei Qingqing's wishes.
This coachman is not an ordinary coachman, it is the guards of the Hou Mansion who act as the coachman.
Needless to say, I also knew that I was here to protect Pei Qingqing's safety.
Yao Lang watched and listened, but didn't speak, he knew that Pei Qingqing was going to find the Nanyang County Lord!
It seems that Pei Qingqing doesn't look like he's angry?
On the contrary, it seems that he is worried about the Nanyang County Lord.
After a short time, the carriage stopped in front of the General's Palace.
Yao Lang jumped out of the carriage first, and then helped Pei Qingqing down.
Then, Pei Qingqing anxiously knocked on the closed door of the General's Mansion.
After a while, someone came to open the door.
The person who came to open the door was known to Pei Qingqing.
It was Xia Liu, the maid who served by Huo Xiaoya's side.
"Mrs. Hou...... It's you!" Obviously, Xia Liu also recognized Pei Qingqing.
Because she followed Huo Xiaoya to see Pei Qingqing more than once or twice, it was strange that she didn't recognize her.
Seeing that it was Pei Qingqing who came to knock on the door, Xia Liu immediately greeted him with a smile and a very respectful attitude.
Pei Qingqing has an excellent relationship with her young lady, as Huo Xiaoya's maid, Xia Liu doesn't know it.
It was Pei Qingqing, who was in a hurry to see Huo Xiaoya at this time, and asked directly, "Sister Xu is at home?"
I want to go in as I speak!
Unexpectedly, Xia Liu was shaking his head, "Miss is not in the house......"
Pei Qingqing paused when she wanted to go in, "What? Sister Xu is not here, where did she go?"
When she said this, Xia Liu's little face was obviously a little more aggrieved, "The slave doesn't know either, the young lady didn't ask the slave to follow when she went out...... The slave doesn't know where the young lady has gone?"
Her young lady is different from the average lady!
I've always liked to be alone!
Take her with you anywhere!
Just because of her young lady's temperament, if she was born in the countryside, she doesn't know what kind of wild monkey she is!
Even their wives said that the young lady was like a monkey!
Xia Liu muttered a few words in his heart.
Pei Qingqing naturally couldn't hear Xia Liu's little girl's heart, she only heard Xia Liu say, I don't know where Huo Xiaoya went?!
Huo Xiaoya has always liked to be alone, informal, and casual, and she knows all of this.
But now that Huo Xiaoya is not in the General's Mansion, for a while, she really doesn't know where to find her?
"Mrs. Hou, do you have anything to do with my young lady? If Madam has anything to explain, you can tell the slave maid, and when the young lady comes back, the slave and maid will definitely tell my young lady for Madame!" After Xia Liu muttered in his heart, he asked Pei Qingqing again.
