Chapter 145: Return
Qing Xing entered the gate of the Qingfeng Pavilion, for fear that the man behind him would catch up, so she ran directly into the West Wing and hid. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
When she lived in this courtyard with Qin Hanzhen in the past, she lived in the west wing, so she subconsciously ran this way. But now the West Wing has lived in Lily, Baihui, and Wei and Lu, and it is no longer the vacant state it was before. Qingxing ran into the house, and bumped into Lily and Mama Lu sitting by the window doing needlework, and the other half lying on the couch with her eyes closed, and her face suddenly became embarrassed.
Lily smiled and stood up: "Why did my sister come here at this time?
Qingxing hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, the girl went back and freshened up, so she rested." She paused, "But there's one thing...... It's about the girl, I can't make up my mind, I'm afraid I'll miss the business, so I have to come to ask the lord and wife for instructions. After I came, I remembered that my lord and wife must still be taking a nap at this time, so I came to talk to my grandmother and sisters. ā
Lily beckoned her to sit down at the table, and poured her tea: "Sit down, can you eat melon seeds? Mama Wei and Baihui were waiting in the main room, and there were only me and Mama Lu. You're here just in time, let's talk, and save yourself from sleepiness. It's too hot, and people can't help but feel sleepy just after eating. But if you really sleep, don't think about being an errand for a while. ā
Qingxing smiled, saluted Mama Lu, and sat down. Mama Lu actually just closed her eyes and recuperated, and she didn't plan to really sleep, so she also sat up and came to the table to talk in one place.
Mama Lu saw that Qingxing looked a little uneasy, so she asked, "What is it important for you to ask the master and wife to show me?" If it's just a trivial matter, I've made an idea for you, and you don't have to alarm the lord and wife. ā
Qingxing hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said: "It's not that I don't want to tell my grandmother about this, but I guessed it myself, if I guessed wrong, I misunderstood a good person, wouldn't it be embarrassing for everyone to spread it?" However, when I returned to the old lady after a while, if my grandmother heard it nearby, there was nothing to be afraid of. ā
Mama Lu raised her eyebrows, and she didn't mention it much, just drinking tea slowly, while leading Qingxing to talk about some trivial things, asking her about her background, and so on.
Qing Xing had been paying attention to the movement in the main house, and was a little absent-minded about Mama Lu's words, and she didn't bother to think about how to deal with it. Whatever Mama Lu and Lily said to her and taught her, she listened to them all, and she should come down. But after a long time, she was a little aware that Mama Lu and Lily seemed to be pointing her out something that was not very beyoly. Their attitude was mild, and they did not show an attitude of contempt for her, but she could not be disgusted. After thinking about it, she also knew that their guidance was for her good, so she humbly thanked her, and asked for further advice, and the three of them got along happily.
After more than half an hour, there was movement on the other side of the main house. Lily saw Baihui coming out by the window to ask the little girl to fetch water, so she knew that Niu got up and hurriedly told Qingxing. Qingxing smiled and thanked her and Mama Lu, and went out to the main house.
Mama Lu looked at her departing back, and said to Lily slowly: "This girl can be created, but the rules she learned in the past are too rough, and she needs to be taught well." Mama Wei and I are older, and there are a lot of things to do on weekdays, so you and Baihui should spend more time. Our three girls are a caring person, and when she sees it in her eyes, she will also miss your love. ā
Lily replied and said with a smile: "Qingxing's rules are poor, it doesn't matter, as long as you are loyal enough, people are not stupid, and you can do things, it's enough." I heard that she was bought by the cousin of the Wu family and given to the girl, and she bought it outside, where is the ability of the maidservants who have been trained since childhood in the house? This is not bad. I see that she has read for two years and knows a few words, which is rare among girls. The girl is willing to believe in her and use her, and her future will not be much worse in the future. ā
Mama Lu smiled: "You guys, you can't see it." Before this girl was bought by the Wu family's cousin, I was afraid that it was not a good place to stay. Now there are some people with enough money outside, and when they see that the girl at hand is a little beautiful, they may not be satisfied with selling her to a big family to be a maid, so they specially invited someone to teach, and teach poetry, skills, and cooking and accounting. When the girl grows up to be a teenager and is just the right age, she will find the generous patron and sell it, and the silver sold is a thousand times more than just selling a girl! Qingxing, this girl, is lucky, she should have been bought by Uncle Wu when she was still young, otherwise this will be more frivolous, not like now, you just need to pay more attention, and there will be no traces. It was also her carelessness that she didn't pay attention to it, so she showed her feet. However, in this Chengenhou Mansion, few people can see that something is wrong. I just told her when I got back. ā
Lily was surprised: "Mama Lu, what do you mean ......?"
Mama Lu waved her hand: "I didn't say anything, don't talk about it in front of people." In the end, it was the person sent by Uncle Wu, who must know the roots. As long as you are loyal to our family and serve the girl well, what does it matter if you are on an errand in the outer courtyard? Her brother is on an errand in the outer courtyard, right? I have seen it once before, and he is very good, and he must have studied martial arts for several years. Their brothers and sisters are all in our house, and they rely on each other, which is better than those who are alone without any worries, so that there is a person who can restrain each other, and they dare not easily do things that betray the Lord. ā
Lily vaguely understood, and smiled: "To be able to send this brother and sister over, that Uncle Wu is also a big heart." I wonder if the girl knows?"
Mama Lu smiled and said, "The girl is still young, where do you need to know so much? As long as the lord and wife know it." ā
In the main room, Qingxing was already kneeling in front of Niu's and said that she had something to go back. Niu Shi washed his face, and while letting Baihui comb her hair, he looked at her suspiciously: "What's the matter?" But which girl on Sister Sang'er's side is disobedient?"
Qingxing shook her head and said, "There are guests in the house today, and the parrot brother and sister of Songfeng Hall come over to invite the girl over." The girl was afraid that the guests would have to wait too long, so she wanted to go immediately, but she asked Brother and Sister Parrot to persuade her, and turned back to Mingyuewu to change her clothes. Xia Qing told me that Brother and Sister Parrot had specially instructed her how to dress up the girl, what clothes to wear, what jewelry to wear, and what incense to wear in the sachet. Xia Qing felt strange in her heart, and she didn't feel at ease, so she replaced me and took the initiative to follow the girl to Kurong Hall to meet the guests, and came back to tell me that the girl's dress and incense seemed to be in favor of the sons and daughters of the Xu family. We didn't dare to think about it, but we thought it was too strange, but we were going to meet our relatives, why did Brother and Sister Parrot ask for such instructions? Therefore, we specially came to ask the lord and the wife to show us if there is anything here that we don't know? If so, we will pay careful attention to the girl in the future. ā
Niu's face had sunk: "Nonsense, what's the reason?!" she looked at Qin Bai, who was sitting by the window and watching the orchids, "Master, what do you say is going on? But how old is our sister Sang? Sister-in-law didn't mention it before?"
Baihui and Mama Wei, who were standing by the door, also showed surprise, but it didn't affect the work at hand.
Qin Bai gently let go of the orchid leaf in his hand and turned his head: "Sister-in-law really didn't mention it. Whatever Brother Parrot wants to do, we just treat it as nothing. If my sister-in-law really has that kind of thought, she will always tell us clearly. ā
Niu snorted coldly: "She should have made it clear to us a long time ago! Sister Sang is only how old is it? Where do you need to see each other? Can my granddaughter still not get married? I need her uncle and grandmother in the next room to worry about it! She is really so idle, she might as well marry her own granddaughter first!"
Qin Bai smiled: "The eldest granddaughter of the long house is the second girl, and she is not much older than Han Zhen. At this time, you have to think about looking at each other, which is also a joke. Well, you don't have to talk about it, just don't know about it. If there is no follow-up on my sister-in-law's side, if there is a follow-up, will we be indifferent?"
Niu Shi thought about it again and again, and always felt uncomfortable: "It's not my temperament to swallow my anger, I have to ask about it!"
Qin Bai persuaded her: "Who are you going to ask? Ask your sister-in-law? She may not tell you the truth." In case she says that this is your heart, Brother Parrot is just a few words in vain, at most it is just a few boards to punish the girl, can you understand?"
Niu sneered: "I won't ask her." The second lady of the Xu family is good friends with me, and I think she is a cool person, so just ask her to go. ā
Qin Bai shook his head: "How do you ask? Do you know what the sister-in-law is thinking? The grandson of the second room of the Xu family is more compatible with Han Zhen, in case the second lady Xu is in the know, isn't it more embarrassing for you to ask her?"
Niu Shi said with a straight face: "Then I have to ask too! I can't stand these vague things in my heart." Since Second Mrs. Xu is good friends with me, if she wants to marry me, she just has to be generous. If you can't do it, if you can't do it, where can you use so many careful and small means?!"
Niu Shi made up his mind, and didn't mention it much, but said to Qingxing: "You and Xia Qing are very good, careful enough, as soon as you find something wrong, you can report it." No matter what the truth is this time, I will always remember your credit. She asked Mama Wei to take two big rewards, one for Qingxing, and the other for Xia Qing.
Qingxing kowtowed and thanked the reward, received the reward and retreated, and was relieved. She still had to go back to Mingyuewu to wait, so naturally she couldn't stay in the Qingfeng Pavilion for a long time, so she turned around and walked out of the courtyard.
As soon as he saw her come out, he immediately greeted her and asked, "Are you Sister Shan?" Are you Sister Yunjiang's daughter? I am your fourth cousin, do you still recognize me?"
Qing Xing was stunned, stared at him carefully, and her face changed slightly. She remembered that this man was indeed the fourth cousin He Xin. However, how could he appear in the Chengenhou Mansion?
She quickly glanced around, bit her lip and whispered: "It's inconvenient for me to talk to you, my brother is now named Lizi, and he is on an errand in the third room, you ask him to talk." After that, she lowered her head, and didn't care that He Xin called her behind, and entered the second gate without looking back.
