25.025 The so-called "Push the Boat" along the water

The next day, Shao Linghang took the girl who brought the sweet soup to the old lady's incense house.

The third and fourth wives were there, and seemed to be deliberating, and when they saw him coming, they deliberately wanted to avoid him, so they stopped him. A few more people are present, and there is a testimony. It's just that irrelevant people still have to avoid it, so except for Wushuang, who was waiting by the old lady's side, the other subordinates were kicked out of the house.

Only then did she say hello to the old lady, and then pushed out the girl behind her, "She is too active, find someone to hire her." ”

This girl's name is Sixue, and she was originally the girl next to the third wife. Because he was so smart, he was caught by the old lady at a glance, and he stayed by his side to teach him for a while, and he was just sent to Shao Linghang some time ago. When she stood up, she directly slapped the old lady and the third lady in the face.

Shao Linghang also added: "The people around me are enough to call, don't send people to me in the future." ”

When the old lady heard these two words, she was so angry that she slapped twice on the big pillow, "Do you know how old you are now?" When your father was your age, your third brother was already three years old. ”

The prince's family cares most about the heirs, even if the title is hereditary, if there is no heir, whether it is a side branch or a concubine, it depends on the emperor's will. The emperor was unhappy for a while, and it was not for nothing that he received the title.

Shao Linghang understood what the old lady meant, turned the wrench on his thumb and looked at Chen slightly, and finally made up his mind, "No one in the room can give birth to a son-in-law." The son came this time to ask his mother to propose marriage to his son. ”

"Really?" The old lady listened to his words, and was more surprised than convinced, "Don't matchmaker come to the door, you don't know where to hide again." If the emperor gives you a marriage, you dare to resign, I want to say goodbye to you, and you will go to Nanjing. If you bluff me into worrying about you again this time, I'll be over with you. ”

The old lady's voice was disgusted, Shao Linghang couldn't help but feel bitter in his mouth, tilted his head and smiled, "This time I have to bother my mother." ”

"Why bother the family, you can settle down, marry a wife and have children, there is nothing better than this." The old lady breathed a sigh of relief, she was frightened by three or two words of a cat and a dog before, for fear that Shao Linghang had been in the barracks for a long time, and her mind had changed, and she didn't love beauties and loved each other. Seeing him leading Sixue here today, the panic that his guess came true was really palpitating.

Fortunately, it was a false alarm. He is still willing to have women.

Shao Linghang looked at the comfort between the old lady's eyebrows, his heart tightened, and his voice was a little nervous, "The matter of marrying a wife, regardless of the daughter of a famous family, the mother likes it, and the son will marry." But the son has a sweetheart and hopes to be included in the house first. ”

Sweetheart? It's a rarity. thought he was not close to women, but he agreed to marry a wife first, and then he had a sweetheart.

Where did your sweetheart come from?

The old lady was about to ask, and the fourth lady sitting in the circle chair asked faintly: "Hou Ye's sweetheart, isn't it the Qin Huai Oiran who spent 10,000 taels to redeem?" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the people in the warm pavilion were stunned.

Shao Linghang's razor-sharp gaze glared straight at the fourth wife, and if he could, his hand was afraid that he had already choked her neck. But the fourth lady was unusual, and even looked back at him with a little smile.

"Look at Master Hou like this, it seems that I have said it." The fourth lady grabbed the handle, and couldn't stop smiling on her lips, "My mother's brother went south to do goods, passing through Qin Huai, and I heard about the sky-high ransom of the Oiran. Hou Ye concealed it carefully, but unfortunately he only cared about himself and forgot the eldest son of Ying Tianfu Yin. No one in Qinhuai knows Hou Ye, but everyone knows Cao Gongzi. Cao Gongzi swore to his family that he didn't do it, but he didn't say who it was. However, those who were with him at that time could take out 10,000 taels of silver with a raised hand, except for Hou Ye, there was no one else. ”

Shao Linghang clenched his fists to a rattle, and although he tried his best to restrain his anger, the green tendons between his sideburns betrayed him.

He understood what the fourth wife said, and it was precisely because he understood that he was even more angry.

She didn't get any exact information at all, it was all speculation, but she frightened him in a split second. His expression, his response, and his silence made him miss the best opportunity to retort. Now that he has been caught in a trap, it is a quibble, and the old lady can't hide it.

Shao Linghang felt even more depressed, remembering that Su Ke had maintained the fourth room everywhere before, perhaps not out of voluntary, but because the fourth room had pinched Qin Huai's handle.

It's a four-room, dare to bully him to the top of his head.

"Mother, in fact, she is not ......"

Shao Linghang originally intended to defend himself, he couldn't let Su Ke bear this wrong, but after saying a few words, he bluntly intercepted the rest of the words. He suddenly realized, did Sifang really know Su Ke's identity? Su Ke is not a submissive person, if she is really taken care of, she will not sit still. Besides, she's not an Oiran either.

"You don't have to talk to me, you just say if what your fourth sister-in-law said is true!" The old lady was so angry that she gritted her teeth in this stalemate. She didn't think her son could do such a thing, but no one is perfect, and it is inevitable that he will be dizzy for a while. But at this moment, she wanted him to deny it. Regardless of whether there is such a thing or not, as long as he denies it at the moment, she can cover it up with one hand, and she can also take the opportunity to knock on the four rooms' unscrupulous business.

But Shao Linghang finally let her down.

Shao Linghang sank his face and said calmly: "What the fourth sister-in-law said is indeed the truth, I spent 10,000 taels of silver in Qin Huai to redeem an Oiran. ”

"Where are you at the moment?"

"Temporarily stay in Qinhuai, and ask Cao Xinghe to take care of it."

The needles in the warm pavilion could be heard, and the third wife stood on the dry shore to watch the changes, and never said a word. The fourth wife finished pouring oil and watched the fire from the other side, just waiting to see the excitement. But when it came to this, no one refuted it, and a stone in Shao Linghang's heart settled.

But the old lady was sad about this hurdle, her lips trembled, and she tied her mind with the last shred of reason, and asked, "The person you said you want to be admitted to the mansion is this Oiran?" ”

"Yes." Shao Linghang replied simply. He couldn't be happy to be able to choose Su Ke out of this matter cleanly.

The old lady looked at him quite relaxed, and her anger instantly covered her head, slapped one hand on the big pillow beside her, and shouted angrily: "You are going to anger me!" ”

Seeing this, Shao Linghang hurriedly knelt down, "The child is not filial, which makes the mother angry." ”

Wushuang, who was standing on the side, was busy stroking the old lady's back, and before he could say words of comfort, an exclamation suddenly came from outside the house: "Miss Ke'er." Then there was a commotion.

The people in the house were stunned again, and when Wushuang saw this opportunity, he got up and went outside to check, and came back later, and replied softly: "The Lady Kerr from the treasury came to reply to the third wife, and when she went up the steps, she accidentally kicked her foot and accidentally fell down." It's not strict. ”

Shao Linghang was still kneeling, but his face was even worse than when Qin Huai was stabbed just now.

He raised his eyes to look at Wushuang's calm appearance, and asked her now, "Did she ask you to say that?" ”

Regarding the intrigue in the back house, Wushuang's Taoism is higher than Shao Linghang, and she nodded and whispered, "She knows that there is talk in the house, and she is afraid that she will make a few masters unhappy, and she is kneeling outside." I asked her to go back to recuperate, but she still wouldn't. ”

Broken foot and still kneeling? Shao Linghang's silver teeth rubbed secretly, with his understanding of Su Ke, he was afraid that she was suspicious when she heard the voice, and she would not stop until she saw him with her own eyes. If Qin Huai's matter hadn't been exposed, he would have the heart to directly pull her in and announce it to the public. But in this situation, he must save her.

Shao Linghang pretended to be angry, shook off the corners of his robe and stood up, with a pair of angry eyes, "Since you have broken your feet, you will find two mothers-in-law to take her away, who is kneeling here to hinder her eyes?" Also, since he has a name and a surname, he is all shouting, relying on the face of his relatives to mix an intimate name, which will not be effective in this mansion. If you pass on my words, you will not be allowed to call the title of 'Kerr' in the future, and even Fury will pass on the word to me. ”

In this way, the fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond, Wushuang did not dare to take the order, and raised his eyes to look at the old lady.

The old lady has always pitied the poor and the weak, and when she heard that Su Ke had become a scapegoat, she was busy defending it, "You did such a thing yourself, what are you angry with that child." She's Fury's niece, if you pass on this, how will you let this child stay in the house in the future? After that, he raised his chin to Wushuang, and his voice was softer, "Find two mothers-in-law to send Ke'er home, and let the Furui family quickly find a Langzhong to take a look at her." ”

Wushuang took the order to go, and it took about half a cup of tea to come back, nodding and saying that it was all done. When he stood back beside the old lady, his eyes glanced at Shao Linghang, intentionally or unintentionally.

Shao Linghang saw it in his eyes, but he didn't make a sound, his eyes looked to the side calmly.

The old lady was not happy, "Who are you showing your face to?" Did Fury help you hide this matter, and now that you have found out, you are angry with other people's nieces? I also sue you, Su Ke, I look good at this child, with my protection, you don't want to punish her. But that Oiran of yours, as long as I live for a day, she will not want to enter this door. ”

Shao Linghang doesn't have any talent for acting, but he is not tired of deceit, and he weighs Su Ke very clearly. Fortunately, with the fourth wife and this pot of mud, he figured out the old lady's temper. Speaking of which, he also has to thank Mrs. Fourth.

At this moment, the acting was complete, and "Oiran" said that if he threw it away, it was not his style, so he muttered gloomily, "She is my woman after all." ”

When the old lady heard this, she was really embarrassed for him. The two sisters-in-law are still here, and he is embarrassed to say it. "Give her some money and let her fend for herself, and then you and her will have to be cut off. I'm sure you can handle this well, and it won't make me sad. Is that right? ”

Shao Linghang was "embarrassed", stood with a pestle for a long time, and answered with a quiet mouth.

The old lady suppressed her temper, no matter whether Shao Linghang was really willing or not, as long as he responded, he would do it. As for those who don't think it's a big deal to watch fun, they have to deal with it when they are free.

After saying a few words, Shao Linghang came out of the Xiangju and went back to the front yard directly, and someone called Furui over.

Furui listened to the ins and outs, and couldn't help but be overwhelmed, but fortunately, Su Ke was not exposed, and he was in a hurry to make suggestions at this moment, "Nanjing has to make a show, find a house and find someone to charge up first, the old lady is not easy to fool." ”

Shao Linghang felt that it was very true, so he handed over the matter to Furui to do. Just remembered something, and hurriedly called him back again, "At the old lady's place just now, she may have guessed my identity when she heard my voice." If you can still hide it, tell her that I have been to Tianjin Wei these days and am not in the capital. ”

Who this "she" refers to, Fury naturally understood, and went out in a thoughtful voice.

Shao Linghang was crooked alone in the Taishi chair, and his heart was depressed. It's been ten days, and she probably hasn't asked about him, otherwise how could Fury agree so happily and not worry about being exposed.

So don't wait to see him, this woman, owe "clean up".
