Chapter 52: A blessing rather than a curse
The Erfang family has been in office for so many years, how long has it been since they came back? How can they control the speed at which people are spreading word of mouth? Especially the most authoritative old lady in the house?
"Is the news true?" the old lady grimaced, "Xiao has already sent a letter to her mother's family?"
"It's been delivered, I heard that my uncle immediately went into the palace to inquire about the news. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Mama Ding lowered her head and told the old lady the news she knew. "Master Hou has also gotten the news over there, and he has already gone out. ”
The old lady lowered her eyelids, "Sure enough, it's not worry-free, it's only been a few days since I came back, and I have disturbed the family!"
"Old lady...... What should I do now?" Mama Ding said with some concern.
"What else can I do? The old lady sighed, "Go and tell the porter that Master Hou will call me as soon as he returns." ”
Mama Ding said, 'Yes. Then let the little girl go to the second gate to wait, if the Hou Ye comes back, it will be convenient to pick up the Hou Ye. If it's not early today, I'm afraid that Hou Ye will be in charge of the lamp when he comes back.
The Xiao family waited until the time of the lamp, and then a grandmother of the Xiao family came. At this kind of time, it is obvious that the master of the Xiao family is not suitable for coming to the door, otherwise the matter will expand, so I found a competent grandmother and said that she had just got fresh ingredients and couldn't stay overnight, so she sent them over.
"I've seen Mrs. Gu. That grandmother is a powerful person around the Deng family, and she didn't talk nonsense when she entered the house, so she hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Mrs. Gu, our lord came back from the palace, saying that my aunt has an upright temperament, and said a few words that are not very pleasant, although Your Majesty played a few boards, but the injury was not serious, and he stayed in the palace to recuperate." ”
"Mama, do you know what Daddy said that caused Long Yan to be angry?" Ruan Jingxin was concerned about the reason.
Mama shook her head, "Our lord only said, let Mrs. Gu be calm and wait with peace of mind." ”
Xiao Shi got this sentence, and he felt a little confident in his heart, "Mama has worked hard this time, Yuye." ”
Yuye stepped forward and stuffed a royal blue purse embroidered with lilies into Mama's hand, "It's getting late, I don't know if Mama can have dinner?" If you don't dislike it, follow me to the small kitchen to have a bite." ”
The grandmother touched the contents of her purse and smiled, "Then trouble the girl." She saluted Xiao and said respectfully, "If Mrs. Gu has no other instructions, the old slave will retreat." ”
Xiao nodded, "Go ahead, if there is any news, please come and tell me again." ”
"The old slave knows, Mrs. Gu, please rest assured. ”
Xiao Shi looked at his daughter with a calm face on the side, and felt a little better, "Xin'er, you go and rest." ”
"Mother, I'll sleep with you tonight. Ruan Jingxin smiled slightly, "Don't worry, it'll be fine." ”
Shaw was exhausted, but couldn't sleep. Ruan Jingxin frowned, and while Xiao was confused, she wrote a letter to Ruicao and said, "Early tomorrow morning, when you open the door, you will go to Yungui Tower, and hand it over to Tingfeng or Zuizhu." ”
Ruicao responded, carefully put the letter in his arms, and after waiting for Ruan Jingxin to rest, he went to bed early, and let Cuiluo serve outside.
Tingfeng has been stationed in Yunguilou for a while now, because he is in charge of contacting the fourth lady of the Ruan family. Speaking of this fourth lady of the Ruan family, I also admired it from the bottom of my heart. From her summer melon, to a one-foot shop that has developed a certain scale in a short period of time, to the mellow wine sent to the restaurant some time ago, all of them are well-thought!
Especially the wine, which has a strong aroma and a soft taste. It's just that the name is really not good, but fortunately, the owner of his own family changed his name, and his value suddenly increased a lot.
The restaurant does not sell morning food, so it is not early to open. Listening to the wind, he was used to getting up early, and after he practiced a set of swordsmanship in the courtyard, he freshened up and prepared to go out to eat Zhang Ji tofu brain in the east of the city.
"Why are you here?" Tingfeng looked at Seocho in front of him with some surprise. Seeing that her legs were numb, she couldn't stand steadily for a while, so she subconsciously reached out and helped her.
Seocho moved his hands and feet, and grabbed Tingfeng's arm, "Quick, send this letter to your family!"
Tingfeng took the letter and wanted to leave, but when she saw Seocho's appearance, she still helped the person into the restaurant first, and found someone to serve her some snacks and tea before turning around and leaving.
Dongfang Xu's breakfast was not used yet, and he received a letter from Ruan Jingxin. Although he didn't say anything, the slightly raised corners of his lips were enough to show that he was in a very happy mood.
"Lord Shizi, let's eat first?" Linglong saw that Dongfang Xu hadn't eaten yet, so she got up and wanted to leave, and hurriedly spoke, "There is nothing more important than the body." ”
Dongfang Xu glanced at Linglong expressionlessly, "Urgent, soon." ”
Linglong saw that the prince turned around and went indoors, and the posture was to write. She remembered the letter sent by Tingfeng, and there were many suspicions for a while.
Dongfang Xu's reply was fast, he carefully folded the letter, and then found an envelope and stuffed it back, "Call Tingfeng in and send the letter out immediately." ”
Listening to the wind, he glanced at the prince of the world complainingly, and didn't dare to say that his stomach was empty, so he could only turn around and go back to the restaurant.
Linglong sat down again, and put a small steamed bun into a white porcelain plate, "This is your favorite food, and it's still hot." ”
Dongfang Xu didn't make a move, but slowly drank the white porridge in front of him. Linglong was a little discouraged, and said casually, "Who wrote the letter to the master, so that the master had to eat later?"
Dongfang Xu stopped his movements, raised his phoenix eyes to look at Linglong, and said in a flat voice, "Linglong, you have overstepped." ”
Linglong was shocked, only to feel that all the limbs and bones were cold, and then knelt down with a 'poof', "Please forgive the prince." ”
"Go down and don't affect my appetite. Dongfang Xu's ruthlessness is not usually shown, but if it touches his brow, he will never tolerate it.
Linglong withdrew a little tremblingly, and only exhaled a deep breath after a long time, only then did she realize that her back was full of cold sweat. She was remorseful and glad at the same time, but this situation made her even more curious about the owner of the letter. I couldn't help it, but I still thought about it.
Not to mention that Dongfang Xu happily finished breakfast and went to the Prince's Mansion. It was only said that after Ruicao got the reply, he handed the letter to Ruan Jingxin as soon as possible.
Ruan Jingxin unfolded the letter paper, only to see that there were only a few strokes in it, "It's a blessing or a curse, you get your wish, remember to prepare a thank you gift." ”
What do you mean? Ruan Guanqi was beaten by the emperor because of Dongfang Xu's hands and feet?
"Is it a blessing or a curse, do you get what you want?" Ruan Jingxin thought of her wishes, and she was a little unsure. But when she thought of someone's style of doing things during this time, she had a faint bottom in her heart. "In that case, I'll just wait quietly. ”
