644 The high gate of the concubine (28) is a watch
Shoko Gaomen (28)
Prince Heng didn't talk to Jin Chengan for a long time, from entering the door to going out, it took less than half an hour. Of course, if it is really closed and talked for a long time, the emperor should be suspicious.
Guiwu came back and talked, and the fourth master told him to go down and rest.
Lin Yutong is directing a few girls to clean up the house, this move and rearrange the house is really a troublesome thing, piecemeal, it always looks like it is not suitable anywhere.
"Ming'er asked someone to make a few wooden troughs and plant a crop of vegetables, so that they can eat it in the next year. If you send garlic sprouts, it is estimated that you can catch up with the New Year. Lin Yutong saw the fourth master come in, so he said to the fourth master. Nowadays, there are really not many people who can use them, less than thirty of them, and the others have been returned to Mrs. Chu by Lin Yutong, give it to whoever you like.
The fourth master responded: "This is not in a hurry. If you don't have it at home, you can't use it, so I'll find a way. ”
Lin Yutong is really calculated, there are four girls around him, a Guixi study next to the fourth master is waiting, and Guiwu is in charge of foreign affairs. This one house has to be propped up, and there are several sets of teams inside and out. It's also been too cold recently, and people who are freezing can't go out, so they have to slow down.
As if she remembered something, she asked the fourth master in a low voice: "You said, this Miao family hid the hole cards so tightly, it seems that they didn't give everything to the Guogong Mansion." Then you say, what about the old people of the Miao family? Even if the master is dead, then those old people are gone? ”
The fourth master immediately understood what Lin Yutong meant: "Aunt Miao must be gone." "Not everyone is like Gan. Besides, Jin Chengan wants the Miao family's industry, so he won't let the master of the Miao family leave his sight alive. Besides, the maps hidden in those books really don't leave alive without taking this thing with them. "But the old man ...... You should be careful about asking. As he spoke, he called Guixi in, and commanded in a low voice: "Go and talk to Guiwu to see if you can find out where Jing'an Hou often goes." ”
Guixi answered, bent his neck and went out.
Lin Yutong understood, Jing'an Hou laid out the affairs of the Miao family in front of everyone, and he felt quite meaningful when he thought about it. But she can't intervene in this matter, so let's do what she can. So he called Gui Fang: "Turn out the skins we kept, and make two gray squirrel skins for the four of you and Guixi Guiwu, and a sheepskin for the one who serves in the courtyard." If you don't have enough skins, buy them, and if you can't do it alone, go to an outside tailor. I don't pay attention to any embroidery color, as long as I hurry up and make it, this in and out, one by one shrinking my shoulders, what does it look like?"
The fourth master is more straightforward, "Call the ready-to-wear shop to come, buy ready-made ones and make up for life first." ”
Gui Fang felt distressed: "Then this skin ...... Do you still do it yourself?"
Lin Yutong smiled: "Yes, there are not many people in the Communist Party." If you live by yourself, you have to have your own weather. ”
As a result, the next day, the yard was full of people wearing new leather jackets. The fourth master and Lin Yutong got up early in the morning and wanted to greet the old lady, although the first few times, they just sat in the flower hall and asked the girl who was waiting for the old lady.
The courtyard where they now live is connected by only two gates that follow the house. One is the back garden and the other is a small arch on the side of the hanging flower door. The door leading to the back garden Lin Yutong had already been sealed. There is only this small arch, and Lin Yutong arranged for two mothers-in-law to guard it here. There was a row of canopies next to the arch itself, and she converted the canopy, which was closest to the arch, into a porter. On weekdays, this small arch is locked, and when someone goes out, they must get a sign from Sanxi to cross the yard over there. And if someone wants to come in, they have to knock on the door first, and then the mother-in-law opens the door and lets people in. When you come in, you have to wait in the gatehouse, and you can't walk around. Wait for the mother-in-law to call the little girl who is here to lead the way before she can walk around.
Today, the two of them entered from the small arch, which was a sandwich road, and from the sandwich road, they entered another small arch, which was the courtyard where the prince and his wife lived. Passing through it again, it is the middle road of the entire Guogong Mansion. Walking inside, the fourth entrance is where the old lady lives.
When the two arrived, the prince and his wife had just come out of it.
Xiao Chu's family sent someone to send Lin Yutong a basket of frozen pears last night, and when he came back, he heard how strict Dongyuan was. She didn't think there was anything wrong with such a guard. If the management is strict, there will be fewer troubles, which is more convenient in her opinion. Now when I saw Lin Yutong, I smiled: "I'll go to your side to learn the scriptures." We haven't spoken in one place yet. ”
Lin Yutong saw that the fourth master and Jin Shouren were on the side and didn't know what to mutter, so he turned his head and said politely to Xiao Chu's family: "If you want to come over one day, my sister-in-law asked someone to explain to my mother-in-law through the door, and I am so ready to prepare, I have deviated from my sister-in-law's good things, if I don't take out the bottom of the box, I am afraid that I will not be able to say it." ”
Xiao Chu laughed. She was a tall and crisp beauty, and she smiled with a bit of flamboyance, and when I saw her eyebrows raised, "I'll wait." Don't be sweet to me with nice words. As he spoke, he glanced into the hall and whispered, "There's still one sitting inside." You don't know, now the in-laws of the Qi family have come to live, saying that the second grandmother is lonely and has come to live as a companion. ”
Lin Fanghua stayed with Qi Duoer? Is this really ......
Lin Yutong understood what Xiao Chu meant, this Lin Fanghua is the daughter of the Lin family. "I really don't know this, I just know that I just moved from the Lin family to the Qi family a few days ago, and I really don't know that I live at home now. ”
This means that he was swept out of the house by the Lin family.
"Okay, let's go, it's not cold, it's not over at the door. Kim Shou-in's voice came from the side.
As soon as Lin Yutong looked up, the fourth master was already standing on the steps.
Xiao Chu snorted lightly and whispered to Lin Yutong: "These gentlemen are all virtuous, why didn't they say cold ...... when they spoke just now?"
Lin Yutong pursed his lips and smiled, watching Xiao Chu leave. Only then did he hand his hand to the fourth master and asked her to help her up the steps. Although this step is under the corridor, it always feels that the bluestone slab is frozen hard and slippery.
The two went in, and this time they saw the old lady. The house was a little tightly closed, and in order not to make the house smell unpleasant, incense was used, and as soon as I entered the door, the smell almost knocked people back.
When Lin Yutong approached, the grandmother on the side whispered to the lying old lady that the fourth young grandmother was coming, and the old lady stretched out her hand to touch Lin Yutong's hand. The surprise in Lin Yutong's eyes flashed, this is invisible. She reached over and grabbed the old lady's wrist, and felt the pulse in her heart. The old lady is glaucoma, and after a long time, she can now see a little blurred shadow. Moreover, in Lin Yutong's opinion, there is no need to treat this old lady's eyes. If she takes good care of her, the old lady's life span will only be three or five months, and it will come to an end.
At this moment, her hand was grabbed by the old lady. Rubbing up and down, "Well, the fourth child has luck." This daughter-in-law has the most tender skin and flesh, and ...... smoothest."
What is this all about?
The old lady who was waiting on the side smiled awkwardly, and the old lady spoke again: "...... Strange ......" she pinched Lin Yutong's fingers and touched them one by one, "...... It's hard to ...... here It's too rigid...... It's good but it's not good...... But a person who can live with peace of mind is better than the daughter-in-law of the second family, and the daughter-in-law of the second family is not a safe person and can't keep the ......"
The old grandmother hurriedly rescued Lin Yutong on the side, "You haven't given the fourth grandmother a meeting gift yet." ”
The old lady turned her head and pointed to the cupboard at the head of the bed, "Add that set of rubies, that's a good thing......
As a result, Lin Yutong took two meeting gifts from the old lady in a daze, one was jadeite, although the water head was good, but the value was like that, this set of rubies was really a good thing.
Lin Yutong couldn't help but tell the old lady in the end: "When you ventilate the outside, replace the door inside with a light curtain, which can be more or less breathable, and it is more comfortable for people to carry." ”
The old lady glanced at Lin Yutong in surprise, and then cleanly gathered her mind and lowered her eyelids.
When he turned to go out, he caught a glimpse of Qi Duoer kneeling in front of the Buddha statue in the corner of the outer hall. Apparently praying for blessings. Lin Yutong sighed, this one is open-minded. But what does this do...... Besides, she wants to use the old lady, but she is afraid that it will not work, and the old lady is blind and her heart is not blind. And the old lady's lifespan is approaching!
After going back, Lin Yutong told the fourth master about the old lady's physical condition, this person is gone, and he has to keep filial piety. If Jin Chengan's current position is changed because of Shouxiao, it will be difficult to say many things. Seeing that the fourth master nodded, he went to his heart, so he changed the topic and said, "The old lady is going to touch the bones and look at the face?"
The fourth master really hasn't studied metaphysics. But there are more things in this world that people don't understand. You can't just beat someone to death with a stick, saying it's superstition. He took Lin Yutong's hand, touched his finger and said, "There are such records in some books, who knows if it's true or not?"
Lin Yutong was hoisted up and interested, "I will definitely learn it when I have the opportunity in the future...... even if it is to fool people."
Anyway, being idle is idle, and the two of them are rummaging around the house to see if there are any books on the subject. It was almost time for lunch, Xiangli came in and asked what she wanted to eat at noon, Lin Yutong hadn't spoken yet, Guiwujin asked to see her outside, saying that Prince Heng had sent a post and asked Lin Yutong to go to the palace tomorrow.
The fourth master asked Guiwu to send the post in. Lin Yutong slowly put down the book in his hand and smoothed out the pages little by little, "...... so urgent"
Guiwu gave the post to the fourth master, who opened it and glanced at it, and handed it to Lin Yutong, "Look at it, it is indeed the princess." ”
It's the princess, not the side concubine. This made Lin Yutong a little uncertain for a while.
The next day, I had an early meal, and the fourth master personally sent Lin Yutong over, "You just have to go, I'll wait in the nearby teahouse." I guess it's almost time, so I'll pick you up at the door. ”
Lin Yutong smiled: "I'm just so useless? It's just to see a princess." "We've seen a lot of princesses.
Li Xiangjun got the letter, so he asked Mama Zhang to pick up people, and at the same time asked someone to inform Concubine Gan.
Mama Zhang sighed, and could only stand at the door of the inner courtyard early and wait. The carriage stopped at the gate of the inner courtyard, and she was just about to step forward to meet her, when she caught a glimpse of the stone wall on the side, and Mama He stood there and watched quietly.
In this trance, when he turned his head, he saw a tall and graceful figure getting off the carriage......
