Chapter Fifty-Six: The Mysterious and Desolate Courtyard

Mo Ye's body flashed, and he quickly flipped in from the door, and unloaded half of the courtyard door from the inside, and Mo Xue Tong took Mo Lan into the door from the unloaded halfway.

Standing at the door and looking in, a gravel path overgrown with wild grass zigzags into the door, deep and desolate, Mo Ye swept away the entangled vines with his feet, Mo Xue Tong walked in along the road, and an indescribable feeling pervaded people's hearts.

There are two entrances in the courtyard, and the main house with one outside is pushed open with a somewhat dilapidated door, and there is a squeak of buttons, and the emptiness is infiltrating.

"Miss, the slave maid will go first and clean up, and then you will come in again. Mo Lan was uneasy to block in front of Mo Xuetong, although she didn't know what place this was, but she saw the caution in Mo Xuetong's eyes, and knew that this place must be valued by Miss, so she didn't block it, but she was really not at ease.

"It's okay, I'll take a look, my mother used to live here......" Through the broken and leaky curtain, Mo Xuetong's eyes fell on the wide case, and some scattered fragments came out of the depths of memory, stretched out his hand to push Mo Lan away, and firmly walked into the dusty house.

There are a few books sporadically placed on the bookcase, turning a little messy, turning a screen, the calligraphy and paintings on the screen are quite clear, a few strong and powerful big characters, and some women's red makeup flowers and birds, nothing is eye-catching, enter it, there is a small couch, and there is a side by the window by the couch that is quite clean.

Mo Xuetong walked to the couch and saw a small window, looking out from the window, there was a corner of red bricks and green tiles in the distance, and you could also see a corner window on the wall.

Nothing else stands out.

"Miss, let's go back, while the old lady may be looking for you. Mo Lan said uneasily, inexplicably feeling that this place was very weird.

"It's okay, I'll take another look and leave. Mo Xue Tong said softly, turned around and walked to the side, and the body of Mo Ye who followed her flashed to the window door.

"Miss, it's Moyu at the window over there. Mo Ye suddenly looked out the window and said.

"Mo Yu, is the courtyard where we live looking out from here?" Something slipped in his heart, and Mo Xue's pupils stopped abruptly, looking back in amazement.

"Yes, I just saw Moyu walk by the corner window. Mo Ye looked carefully again and said affirmatively.

Mo Lan also turned around and looked out the window, her eyes were not as good as Mo Ye, but she grew up with Mo Yu, and when she saw the figure, she knew that the person was indeed Mo Yu, and nodded: "It's indeed Mo Yu, I didn't expect that there was such a yard behind our yard, and I used to think that there was nothing behind the yard where my wife lived." ”

This sentence reminded Mo Xuetong that she now lives in Luo Xia's courtyard, and she used to look out the window when she was bored, but she never found such a courtyard, and the farthest place she saw was the high courtyard wall where the old lady lived.

Why is this hidden garden here?

With doubts, Mo Xuetong carefully inspected the garden, and there was no trace.

A few people walked around the yard again, but found nothing, and went back to their yard.

When I arrived in the courtyard, I was just in time for the old lady to send someone to invite Mo Xuetong over.

Mo Xuetong tidied up her clothes, and went to the old lady, only to know when she entered the door that the old lady Xu was looking for was here, and these two raised grandmothers were still released from the palace, I heard that there were still some identities in the palace in the past, even if the family could invite these two, it was not easy, Xu Laotaijun asked Luo Mingzhu and Mo Xuetong to come to meet first.

The thin one is Mama Han, the mellow and amiable Mama Li, Luo Mingzhu is guided by the thin and stern Mama Han, and Mo Xuetong is the amiable Mama Li, after seeing the ceremony, Luo Mingzhu took Mama Han, and Mo Xuetong also took Mama Li back to their own yards.

There will be a month of upbringing time in the future, mainly to teach various etiquette, palace rules, the auxiliary country is a wealthy nobleman, and it will inevitably have a relationship with the royal family, although Mo Xuetong is the daughter of a small Beijing official, but since the granddaughter of the auxiliary prince is also indispensable.

In the hall just now, Mrs. Xu looked at Mo Xuetong's stunned and timid demeanor, and felt sad, if Xia'er was still there, how could she allow her daughter to be so timid and cowardly, not like a big girl, more cowardly than the maid of other people's families, thinking about this, Xu Lao Taijun is also more and more dissatisfied with Mo Huawen, a good concubine, she wants to be raised in that small place in Cloud City, and even her upbringing is poor.

"Old lady, don't be angry, Miss Biao looks cowardly, but she has an idea, but the rules are a little worse, mainly because she has been in Cloud City for a long time, and no one has raised her well, and she is not really bad at teaching. Seeing that Mrs. Xu had a sulky look on her face, Mama Shen poured a cup of tea and sent it over and persuaded with a smile.

"How can I not be angry, a good lady is so bold to be taught, even the little girl in the house is bolder than her, look at the palace when the people come, her timid appearance, where is the dignified and smart appearance of the young lady, her father really failed to fulfill his responsibility. Mrs. Xu took the tea, took a sip, frowned and sighed, this child was not at all smart, he was more sluggish than usual, and he felt that he couldn't go on the stage at first glance.

"Old lady, don't worry, look at the old slave, Miss Cousin is afraid that it is deliberate!" "Mama Shen came to Beijing with Mo Xuetong, and she has been observing this rumored cowardly Miss Cousin along the way, and along the way, not only does she feel that this Miss Cousin behaves dignified and generous, but also has a very good means for people, even though Aunt Fang's side followed the grandmother because she was here on the one hand, on the other hand, she was worried about Miss Cousin, so the way into Beijing was peaceful.

The incident at the gate of the city made Shen Mama even more convinced, and she always felt that a talent like Miss Table did not need to be educated at all, but the behavior of Miss Table in the hall today was absolutely different from usual, was it really because she saw the nobles in the palace that she lost her usual color?

"Did Hitomi do it on purpose?" Old Taijun Xu frowned and looked up puzzled.

"Old lady, what do you think, Miss Biao is usually a clever person in front of you, why is she stunned like this when she sees the people in the palace, it is obvious that Miss Cousin did it on purpose, I am afraid that she deliberately made that father-in-law think that she was wooden. Although Mama Shen wasn't sure if Mo Xuetong did it on purpose, she saw that the old lady was clearly a little open-faced, so she naturally said it more vividly, like a real one.

This will even believe in herself, smiled and helped the old lady to sit down on the couch on the side, put a few cushions on her back, and leaned up, the old lady was not in good shape, and she couldn't sit for a long time, so she usually leaned on the rest meeting, so she heard that her daughter had an accident, and before she could pass, she was sick.

"Also, Hitomi is usually a clever person, but this time the intention in the palace is unknown, maybe it was really deliberate. Mrs. Xu laughed when she was also said, thinking about how she looked strange when Gonggong Liu was there, and at this time, she felt polite when she heard Shen's analysis, and couldn't help laughing and scolding: "This cunning little girl is so bold that even her grandmother dares to deceive." ”

"This is not your old man's favorite, according to the old slave, don't scold Miss Table, old lady, you scold yourself first, Miss Cousin hurts all the time, fortunately, Miss Cousin is a filial piety, with Miss Table's smart and clever personality, I am afraid that even Miss Cousin can't catch up at that time. Mama Shen watched Luo Xia grow up, and at this time, she couldn't help but have a sour nose when she mentioned Luo Xia, and hurriedly turned her head to wipe her tears.

Turning his head, he patted his face lightly and scolded with a smile: "Look at this mouth, it's nonsense again, Miss Biao is so smart, Miss must be happy to know, and with the old lady to protect you, even if Miss is gone, she is very relieved." ”

Mrs. Xu saw Mama Shen's action, and knew that she was afraid that she would be sad when she thought of her daughter, so she didn't say anything, but smiled sourly and scolded: "You old thing." But he couldn't say any more.

For a moment, there was an inexplicable sadness in the room.

In the middle of the sound, Mrs. Xu's face sank, and she motioned to Mama Shen to close the door before saying, "I'm afraid that Tong'er has also noticed something, and I don't know why the queen is interested in Tong'er." ”

The person who inquired about the news just now came back and said that there are two kinds of people who are rewarded by the queen today, one is the daughter of a big family like her own lady, and the other is the daughter of a small Jingguan, about five or six grades, neither high nor low, just like the identity of the pupil, and there are even two concubines. Coupled with the news that has spread in the palace in the past few days, why don't you ask Mrs. Xu to think more.

"Miss Biao is only thirteen years old and still a little girl, even if the palace really likes it, she won't ......" Mama Shen knew what the old lady meant.

"Why, Hitomi hasn't come to Tianhua yet?" asked the old lady in surprise.

"Along the way, I walked very close to Miss Cousin's nurse, and the nurse knew that the old lady loved Miss Cousin, so she told the old slave in private, only saying that Miss was not in good health, and she had hurt her origin, so she still ...... it" Shen Mama carefully considered it, she had always wanted to talk to Xu Taijun about this matter, but she never had time.

The young lady of a large family eats well, and she is generally an adult at the age of thirteen.

"It's strange that Dao Tong'er is thin and thin like that, Mofu is really damned, raising a good child like this, and raising a concubine born to an aunt to be that arrogant, and it also affects Tong'er's reputation, why did you marry Xia'er to him blindly!" Mrs. Xu gentlemanly knocked the dragon head crutch in her hand on the ground a few times, and complained about Mohuawen.

"Old lady, don't be angry, fortunately, Miss Biao is now in Beijing, she has only turned thirteen years old, there are many thirteen-year-old underage women in the people, and in the end, most of them are strong and strong to get married and have children, and it is not too late to concoct now. Mama Shen comforted, snatched the dragon head crutch from the old lady's hand, and put it aside.

"Go, let the kitchen give Hitomi a fine diet in the future, as long as Hitomi likes it, you have to get it for me, don't be afraid of trouble, don't be afraid of spending money, she is not in good health, she can not be like Xia'er, she ...... at a young age" The old lady said and her voice choked.

"Old lady, don't worry, the old slave took care of it this morning, and begged the second son to let him find a way to get a few pieces of medicinal food from outside to help Miss Biao recuperate. Mama Shen smiled.

"Thanks to you, I might not have survived in the first place...... Hey, you've worked hard for so many years. "Mama Shen is the old lady's former dowryman, and her feelings are not the same as others, so she will listen to her all the arrangements, and said with a light sigh.

"Where did the young lady come from, it is a blessing for the old slave to be able to serve the young lady for several lifetimes. Thinking of her previous relationship, Mama Shen couldn't help but call Taijun by her previous title, and she couldn't help crying for a while.

The room was very quiet, and the old lady suppressed her sadness in the middle of the ring, and said sharply: "Since the queen has such a heart, she will not let Tong'er pass through the door easily, fortunately, her eldest sister caused such a thing, so she simply picked up the matter bigger, and Tong'er was implicated in a small reputation, if she was really sent to the palace and became a powerless beauty, Zhaoyi or the like, it would be better to have a bad reputation." ”

"What does the old lady mean ......" Speaking of business, Mama Shen also wiped the corners of her eyes.

"Yes, go and call the second master, just say that I have something to look for him. The old lady said in a deep voice, the queen wants to dominate in the harem, and it has nothing to do with the Fuguo Mansion, but if she really wants to use Tong'er as a chess piece, her Fuguo Mansion is not easy to mess with.
