Mrs. Lin didn't wait, leaving a room of juniors.

Shao Shi saw that the old woman was finally gone, stood up and said to her relatives and children: "Miss Xiaojue refuses to recognize us, don't worry about her, let's disperse first, I still don't recognize her as the Lin family, go see her." ”

The eldest lady then stood up, and the crowd said goodbye to each other and saluted.

Shao Shi called Granny Ma alone, and the master and servant walked in the flower gallery one after the other, and the other people who were waiting followed at a certain distance.

Shao Shi left the hall, there were no outsiders, and his expression became serious: "Tell me, is this person good at training?"

Granny Ma pressed her shoulders and shook her head: "Deaf and dumb, very stubborn." ”

This is a contradiction, since she is deaf and dumb, she can't hear anything, can't speak, how can it be called stubbornness?

Shao Shi's frowned: "Tell the details." ”

Ma Pozi will give a list of what happened just now.

Shao Shi took small steps: "It's really a little strange, since she is deaf and dumb, how does she know that she wants to go to see Zhou's yard before she dies?"

"I'm afraid it's a coincidence?" Granny Ma couldn't figure it out.

Shao Shi smiled coldly: "How can there be so many coincidences in this world, I am afraid that people will teach you, you forgot the maid you said, she is from the Wu family, and the Wu family is from the Zhou family." ”

Ma Pozi nodded hurriedly in agreement.

Shao Shi grabbed a green leaf on the side of the road and tore it apart.

"Let her bounce for a few days, and I'll be useful if I keep her." ”

You can't deal with this person as soon as you enter the door, the second master's attitude towards this child has always been unclear, for fear that he will be unhappy.

Ma Pozi was a little embarrassed: "How can the old lady explain over there?"

Shao Shi said disdainfully: "The old lady is just a lot of people who want face." It's just a happy mouth, how can she be in the mood to pursue a maid, and if she has the energy, she has to ask Dao Gu to recite the scriptures. ”

"Yes, then let the maid go. Ma Pozi's shoulders pressed again, and she was unwilling.

Shao Shi glanced sideways at her, and sneered: "I just said that you are short-sighted, what do you call a maid?" You go to pass the news, and you say that the old lady wants to deal with the third wife's person, but I stopped her, and I came to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger. When the time comes, I'm not afraid of those girls, I'm not afraid of you. I also came to leave a good mood for the second master. Remember?"

How dare Ma Pozi not listen, but she is happy when she agrees insincerely.

In the end, Lin Xiaojue's business remained.

Ma Pozi asked, "She can't come out of Nanhuangyuan now, how can she be placed?"

Shao Shi smiled even more disdainfully: "She doesn't want to be embarrassed herself, what can I do with her? Just let her stay there, there is no need to settle." It's not that I don't care about her when the lord asks. Everyone knows that the yard is a taboo for the lord. She wants to find bad luck herself, and I won't stop her. ”

Ma Pozi's eyes rolled: "But she hasn't saved face for Mrs. since she came in, so she just let her go?"

Shao Shi stopped suddenly. looked at Ma Pozi with a somewhat gloomy gaze, and Ma Pozi was shocked.

Shao Shi said: "You never forget, the second master of this family is the sky, I don't care if she is not afraid of her, but the future is long, she can't escape from the palm of my hand, even if the third family makes her a demon, they can't erase a fact, I am now the second lady, I am her mother." ”

"Madame is right, it is the slave maid who has a short understanding. Ma Pozi rejoiced.

At night, someone finally came to clean the yard, and Granny Ma also brought a maid and two mothers-in-law.

It was still Lingnan who received her.

Although Granny Ma endured her anger, she was used to being angry, and the uncomfortable feeling could not be changed.

She said: "The other ladies in the house are also four maids, two mothers-in-law, plus a nurse, and the young lady's nurse will be matched in a few days, so these people will stay first." ”

Lingnan didn't leave her either, and immediately ordered the maid and mother-in-law to do things, all rough work, and stay in the yard.

After giving the order, he turned around and went back to the main house. I was angry with Granny Ma again.

Where is this hospitality? Granny Ma stretched her face and scolded in her heart for a while, but because of the words of the second lady, she didn't have a seizure, and scolded for a while before leaving.

In the blink of an eye, the second watch day came, and today they will temporarily clean up here.

Let Lu Yao go down first, and the other two maids made the bed for Lin Xiaojue and were about to leave.

Before leaving, Zhou Zhou took Ling Nan to the young lady who was still writing and asked, "Miss, do you still have the heart to write a book?"

Lin Xiaojue raised his head in confusion.

Monday sighed: "Anyway, I'm quite scared to come back here, I always feel that the second lady has bad intentions and will harm us." ”

Lin Xiaojue thought for a while: "Harm me, she won't, she is still useful, but you have to be careful, if I am not in the house, no one will go out, and no one will open the door." ”

"Miss, where are you going?"

Lin Xiaojue smiled: "Then how do you know, I am a doctor and want to practice medicine." ”

"Ahh

Ling Nan said good night to the young lady, and the two maids went out with their shoulders together, and took the door by the way.

Lin Xiaojue retracted his gaze and lowered his head, and picked up the pen to write.

Lin Shize came home in the evening, and he often spent the night in the study.

Shao Shi asked him to stew bird's nest and send it to the study in person.

Knocking on the door, Lin Shize hadn't slept yet, reading in front of the desk.

Shao Shi stepped in: "The concubine stewed bird's nest for the master, and the master drank it while it was hot, right?" said and asked the subordinate to turn the direction of the food box, and then said to Lin Shize's little servant: "The autumn is deep, the night is cold, the master reads at night, you remember to add clothes to the master." ”

The little maid was busy, and then glanced at Lin Shize's eyes, and went out with the maid.

After everyone left, Lin Shize put down the scroll and picked up the bowl, and took a symbolic sip of bird's nest.

put it down and said, "I have business to do, so you don't want to accompany me so late, rest early." ”

As he spoke, Shao Shi was leaning towards him, clinging to his back.

"I've worked hard, sir. She said softly.

Lin Shize turned his head with a smile, patted her hand and said, "What's so hard about this." It's you, who takes care of the family every day, and it's also very hard, she ......" thought about it and lowered his voice: "Xiaojue will be handed over to you." ”

Finally mentioned the matter, Shao Shi became more and more gentle, she took Lin Shize's hand, and said with a smile: "Miss went to the Nanhuang Courtyard by herself, I have sent someone to send all the daily expenses, and the courtyard vacated by the master is not needed." ”

Lin Shize had already heard the little guy report on this matter, and his face was obviously unhappy. Ponder. sighed: "The steward told me that she was a little withdrawn, and people couldn't speak, so they could only wronged you, let her go first." ”

It's good to be able to understand the pain of getting along with mutes. Shao Shi shook his head with a smile: "Where did the master say." How did this wronged me. It's just that my mother is not happy. ”

Lin Shize didn't know whether he didn't want to care or couldn't bear it, he only said, "I'll talk about it when I'm done with this time." She has changed with the Chen family, and she has discussed the date of decision, and she will not stay in the house for long. ”

Being able to marry the old family of the pavilion is something that can't be begged for, but it's a pity that this dumb man picked up the cheap, but fortunately, the old family of the pavilion won't live long.

Shao Shi nodded: "Master don't have to worry, the matter of the transfer, my father's side has also been discussed, the master has waited for so many years, this time the position of the waiter must not be missed." ”

The left waiter of the ministry, Zheng Sanpin, Lin Shize listened to Shao Shi's words, and there was a moment of sadness in his eyes, which was fleeting.

He smiled: "It also depends on merit, I'll read back to the book, you go to sleep first." ”

Shao Shi went to pack up the food box: "Then the old man rested earlier." She said and walked away with the food box

Lin Shize immediately lowered her head from the moment she went out, and took out a piece of paper from the bottom of the book, there was a blurry portrait on the paper, she looked at it for a while, and rolled the picture close to the candlelight.

When an open flame meets rice paper, it emits an orange and bright light.

At the same time, the Han family, who also lived in Wenchang Hutong, was unable to live in peace.

Han Dongbao complained of stomach pain since he ate, and he couldn't go to the toilet because of the pain, so he rolled on the bed.

Mrs. Shangshu is such a precious son, she is usually afraid of melting in her mouth, and she refuses to let him eat it at all, and now her son is in pain like this, don't want to be distressed.

Hurry up and send someone to ask for a doctor, it is estimated that all the doctors within ten miles have been invited, as for whether it has any effect, it will be a later story.

First of all, there is a very big temple in the suburbs of Jingdong, which was not famous at first, because Emperor Taizu had become a monk before he won the throne, and the name of this temple became famous all over the world after he ascended the throne.

However, now this Huangjue Temple in the capital is more like the main temple.

The temple supported by the royal family, needless to say, is magnificent, the Daxiong Treasure Hall is fragrant, even at night it is still full of magnificence, the oil lamp can light tens of millions, the temple is bright, and I feel that the Bodhisattvas here are better than other temples.

Chen Guogong likes to come to Huangjue Temple and find a great monk named Master Daoyan to play chess.

This monk looks very easy to remember, with eight-character eyebrows, a pair of electric eyes the size of mung beans, brighter than an oil lamp at night, and people in their fifties, their eyes are always so energetic.

Halfway through the game, regardless of the winner or loser, Chen Guogong smiled and blocked Daoyan's way with a word in the sky.

Dao Yan nodded his nose and smiled: "You old fox, intercept me, watch me curse your son to be wiped out." ”

Chen Guogong was not angry, and smiled: "Didn't the master hear about it? My son and Junyuan and I have captured Jiangxi City, and now we are on our way back to Beijing, and I am still waiting for Huang Xian." ”

Dao Yan pursed his lips and left a son: "I don't have a son, what do you show to me." ”

Chen Guogong smiled ingeniously: "The master is the wisest monk in the world, and the Buddhists in the world are all your children, what else do you want that worldly son to do." ”

Dao Yan raised his head when he heard this, patted his head and laughed: "You are so generous, give my son to my old age and send him to the end." ”

Cheng Guogong smiled and nodded at him: "Master, master." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

If you want to ask Chen Guogong why he dares to make this kind of joke with a person from outside the world, it turns out that although this Daoyan Master is a monk, with a title and a title, but he doesn't play cards according to the routine, he occasionally eats meat, and drinks wine, he also has a hobby, he doesn't read Buddhist scriptures and doesn't hit the bell, he specializes in reading the Taoist Tao Te Ching, and when it comes to the monks' lack of contention with the world, he is even more untouched, it can be said that if he hadn't instigated the emperor to be martyred, the emperor would still be the king of Yan.

He doesn't seem to be taboo about anything except women, of course, looking at the incense scar on his head, he must be a monk.

Chen Guogong lost another son, and at this time, the bronze bell in the temple struck three times.

It was the third watch, Chen Guogong looked at Dao Yan and glanced out the window, and he asked, "Who does the master seem to be waiting for?"

Dao Yan straightened up and looked at him: "Buddha doesn't wait for anyone, and people don't want to participate in Buddha, it's all because of fate." ”

Playing dumb riddles, Chen Guogong hesitated and said in a deep voice: "Recently, there are two things that the master may be more interested in, the first is that the family members of Wu Guogong in the past have returned to Beijing, his eldest son has superior political achievements, and the emperor appointed him to go to the ministry, but the grade has not been promoted, but he is only a six-grade master." ”

Dao Yan thought for a while: "Not only is he listed as a secretary, he often has real power in the ministry and department, and the magistrate of Jiangnan is also proud of being promoted to the head of the department." In addition to Hanlin, the branch candidate director is also a good way out, after a certain number of years, will be able to fill the vacancy, and be promoted to the outside, Langzhong. It's a good errand. ”

Chen Guogong continued: "It's a coincidence, didn't the second lady of the family marry Tanhualang Lin Shize this week? gave birth to a daughter, it is said that she was raised in Wuxi, and she also arrived today, saying that she was going to marry Chen Ge's hometown, Chen Ge Lao is the head of the auxiliary ministers, I think this Lin Shize is going to soar, by the way, people also say that the matchmaker is a monk who has attained the Tao and will take the pulse." ”

Dao Yan's face did not change, but he pouted: "It's obviously for Miss to marry, what does it have to do with his father." ”

didn't admit it or deny it, Chen Guogong smiled and said: "The so-called one person who has attained the Tao chicken dog ascends to heaven, isn't it better to take care of it as an in-law?"

Dao Yan glared at him: "I think it's a person who has attained the Tao, the chicken and the dog are restless, can you still play chess?"

Cheng Guogong waved his hand and said with a smile: "No, no, no, the Buddha said that the monks have six pure roots, and the master said that I am, and the six roots are not pure." ”

"I'm clean of all of them. Dao Yan pulled the hairs from his arms.

Chen Guogong saw that he refused to let go, and couldn't, so he asked promptly: "The master seems to be at odds with Wu Guogong back then!" He pretended to think about it, and pointed with his hand: "Wu Guogong captured the master alive." ”

almost killed him, and was lifted off, Dao Yan still didn't let go, his mung bean eyes narrowed, and said with a smile: "I've taken revenge, okay, the good monk doesn't mention the courage of the year." Without waiting for Chen Guogong to say anything, he yawned: "Oh, the poor monk is tired, so I won't play with you." As he spoke, he dropped his chess pieces and went to the inner room.

"Hey, hey, the second half, hey, can you be a gentleman. Cheng Guogong stood up and shouted to him with long hands: "Master, master, Lao Yao, why do you want to get their family back." ”

No response.

Chen Guogong put down his hand and glanced at the results on the chessboard.

"This flower monk, if you don't say it, I will know sooner or later. ”

Thinking about tactics, he crouched down and played cautiously alone. (To be continued......)
