Chapter 252: Uncle
Zhou Mingshan was a little irritable, in fact, she was more worried about what happened to Frangipani......
At this time, she suddenly regretted a little, why did she have a soft heart to agree to Su Xin's request, in case something happened, wouldn't she let Su Xin down again?
She thought for a moment and asked Hongyun again, "Apart from you, who else does Suxin get closer to on weekdays?"
Maybe there's no news or not.
Hongyun shook his head, embarrassed, "Sister Suxin has been staying in the Hou Mansion, and the maid has never heard that she has dealings with people outside, and the maid also went to ask Sister Zangrui before, and she doesn't know!"
Also, Frangipani, as her personal big girl, how can she run outside on weekdays?
Zhou Mingshan secretly laughed, she was also in a hurry, and began to think about it crankily!
But where can a frangipani go with a weak female stream?
I heard that there are some people out there who specialize in those indiscriminate transactions, in case of frangipani......
Thinking of this, Zhou Mingshan became more and more restless, so she simply stood up and circled around the room.
Hongyun couldn't help but feel a little envious when she looked at her from the side, when would the girl pay so much attention to her?
Suddenly, Zhou Mingshan stroked his palm and stopped.
"Oops, I forgot about it!"
Hongyun hurriedly asked, "What did the girl think?"
Zhou Mingshan grabbed her and said eagerly, "What has Uncle Xin been doing lately?"
Hongyun shook his head and said blankly, "The servant doesn't know. ”
Yuan Wenxin has been going out early and returning late since he appeared in Beijing on the day he arrived, and Zhou Mingshan hasn't seen him for several days.
Also, Hongyun is a girl in the Hou Mansion, of course, it is not good to inquire about the news of Zhou Mingshan's uncle's family.
"Then you give your eldest brother a message, and let him ask the people around Uncle Xin by the way. ”
Red Cloud answered.
It was also a coincidence that just after the news was delivered, Zhou Mingshan met Yuan Wenxin the next day.
Since Zhou Mingshan and Yuan Zheng agreed on family affairs, the Yuan family moved back to the cross alley, Yuan Wenxin because he has been seeing the dragon without seeing the end, so when he moved, the Yuan family did not let people touch his things, and selfishly wanted this younger brother to live in the Hou Mansion for a while.
Yuan Wenxin's whole body was crooked in the Taishi chair, burying his whole face under the book, and it wasn't until Zhou Mingshan came in that he showed his eyes slightly.
"I heard that Fu'er misses me, where do you want to?"
Seeing that he looked like a hanger, Zhou Mingshan inexplicably felt lighthearted, ran over in a few steps and took down the book on his face, and knocked it on Yuan Wenxin's forehead by the way, "Yes, Uncle Xin, I miss you so much!"
"Hmm, it hurts, it hurts......"
Yuan Wenxin covered his eyes, his brows furrowed, "Ahhh......h
Zhou Mingshan couldn't bear to look at his appearance, and said mischievously, "Uncle Xin, you pretend again, you pretend again, and I will tell my mother to stew chicken soup for you!"
When Yuan Wenxin heard this, he turned over, and a carp stood up from the chair.
"Oh, my good niece, Uncle Xin is wrong, don't, don't tell your mother, really, really!"
As he spoke, he pretended to make a gesture towards Zhou Mingshan.
When Yuan Wenxin was young, because he didn't like to study, he always skipped class and didn't go to school well, so angry that Yuan Wenkai often beat him with a board, and every time his butt was beaten to a bloody blur, he could only lie on the bed and hum and chirp.
Yuan felt sorry for him, but it was not easy to stop him, so he could only stew soup for him secretly, and heard the doctor say that the chicken soup of the four things to replenish blood was good for the body, so he kept stewing and drinking it for him, and every time he had to watch him eat it all in person.
Yuan Wenxin was beaten once, and he had to drink chicken soup for several days.
No matter how delicious it is, it may not taste good if you eat too much, not to mention that this kind of medicinal diet is even more untasty if it has less salt and no taste.
Once beaten, he had to drink soup for several days, but he couldn't change his dislike of reading, and as the number of beatings increased, chicken soup became something he couldn't avoid.
But every time Yuan worked so hard and brought it to him with tears in his eyes, Yuan Wenxin was unbearable, and he was embarrassed to live up to Yuan's wishes, so he had to grit his teeth and swallow it.
Yuan's stew became a habit, and understood his actions as preferences, so that after she got married, Yuan Wenxin still had chicken soup every time she came to the Hou Mansion.
It wasn't until later that Yuan Wenxin secretly poured out the chicken soup and was broken by the young Zhou Mingshan, and the truth of the matter was revealed.
Zhou Mingshan secretly laughed, "Okay, for the sake of your sincere attitude, forget it this time!"
Yuan Wenxin breathed a sigh of relief at this time, as if the chicken soup was really a flood beast.
"Poof......" she finally couldn't hold back her laughter anymore.
The uncle and nephew laughed, and Zhou Mingshan asked about his doubts these days.
"Uncle Xin, what have you been doing lately?"
Zhou Mingshan was curious about his whereabouts.
In the old year, she was put on a table by Mu Yuting, and later asked about Uncle Xin, but he was always vague about that matter, and she had a lot of questions in her heart, as if Uncle Xin was not just doing business.
"Why do children ask so much?"
Yuan Wenxin lay down on the chair again, looking very grinning, but his tone was tight.
"Go out and see, is there a child as old as me? Don't fool me!" Zhou Mingshan pretended to be dissatisfied.
Yuan Wenxin actually looked up and down a few times on his side, and then said, "Well, my uncle is really wrong, how can there be such a beautiful child, it should be a slim girl!"
Seeing that he hadn't said anything about it, Zhou Mingshan was so angry that he almost stomped his feet, "Uncle Xin......"
"Okay, grandma, I know!" Yuan Wenxin hurriedly raised his hand to make a surrender, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just socializing outside, eating, drinking, and shopping with a few acquaintances......"
As he spoke, he suddenly stopped, with a strange expression on his face.
Zhou Mingshan is not really a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, and she knows a little about the mess outside, and knows what he meant by omitting it.
Thinking that Uncle Xin was still not married, she was also a little embarrassed, so she simply pretended not to understand.
"What old acquaintances?"
If you just eat and drink, there is no need to be away from home all day, Zhou Mingshan feels that he is not telling the truth.
"Ah, I want to think about it......" Yuan Wenxin actually had to think about it, and suddenly slapped his thigh for a while, "Oh, by the way, Mrs. Xianguo also asked you to say that you have time to go over!"
Zhou Mingshan's heart moved, and she pretended to be curious, "Uncle Xin, what are you doing in the Xianguo Mansion?
Although my grandmother and Mrs. Xu are sisters, if she hadn't been reborn to find out about this matter, I'm afraid almost no one would have known.
She had asked her uncle before, but the uncle refused to let her take care of it on the grounds that the affairs of the elders could not be ignored.
Not only did her mother not know the details, but even her eldest uncle Yuan Wenkai was secretive, and Uncle Xin should not go to visit Mrs. Xu.
"No, I just have something to do, haha......"
If it's not to visit Mrs. Xu, then there is only one person in the Xianguo Mansion who can have a relationship with Uncle Xin!
It seems that she guessed correctly, Uncle Xin really still has a relationship with Mu Yuting.
Zhou Mingshan asked a few more words, but Yuan Wenxin either said haha or said a word.
Knowing that she couldn't ask anything anymore, Zhou Mingshan had to let it go and move on to today's topic.
"You mean your handmaid disappeared in Shandong?"
Listening to Zhou Mingshan's words, Yuan Wenxin didn't know what to think, and his face became very strange.
