Shao Linghang came out of Su Ke's house, stood in the courtyard and shouted towards the main house: "Shaoyan." ”

As soon as the words fell, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy ran out of the main house, jumped to Shao Linghang like a cat and mouse, bent down slightly, and asked with a smile: "Is the master finished?" Or is you not going back tonight? ”

Shao Linghang raised his hand and slapped the back of Shao Yan's head, "It's not big or small, I'm going home." ”

Shaoyan sighed and turned around to leave, but saw a girl standing in the room in the west wing. The slender body, the light hair, and a dusty face are like the beauty picture in the master's study. He was stunned for a moment, and felt like he was slapped on the back of the head again.

"Why don't you open the door?" Shao Linghang frowned, "You also see?" ”

Shao Yan came back to his senses, said hello to Shao Linghang twice, raised his legs and ran towards the gate. He had to go outside first to see if there was anyone, and although it was only a few steps away, it couldn't let people see the flaws. However, his mind was still on Su Ke, and he sighed why his master was thinking about coming, it turned out that he was really a fairy-looking girl. Such a person lives across a back street, and no one cares about it.

is worthy of being a person from Qin Huai. Shao Yan smacked his tongue, stood outside the gate and looked at the empty back street, turned around and nodded to Shao Linghang.

Furui and his family came out to send it, but they were stopped by Shao Linghang. Before leaving, he glanced at the West Chamber, Su Ke stood at the door with the light and shadow on his back, and blessed him a little.

This is already good, he doesn't dare to expect her to ask for three or four gifts.

That's not her anymore.

After Shao Linghang left, Furui's family said like no one else, "It's not early, let's rest." Su Ke smiled awkwardly, and immediately turned off the light after closing the door. Su Ke, who was trapped in the dark, still did not calm down.

And in the main room, Furui couldn't help but chatter, "It seems that Master Hou is really tempted." ”

Furui's nod, "This Ke'er is a powerful character, when I passed, Hou Ye's muscles exploded, and his eyes were about to kill." Ke'er, although he is kneeling, he is still neither humble nor arrogant. Look at the time when Hou Ye left just now, he was reluctant to Ke'er, hey, Hou Ye also had such a time. ”

Fury is not rare, "No matter how much you like it, you are a concubine, and you can't earn it with a wife." The identity is there. ”

The Fury family's regret, "It's a pity." ”

Fury turned to the side, "But we can't slack off, our idea still needs the support of Master Hou, and now Ke'er can reach the sky, and it will definitely not be provoked." Maybe in a few days we'll have to ask her for help. ”

"Provincial province. Go to sleep. ”

However, a few people could sleep, and a few couldn't. Su Ke looked at the top of the tent in a daze, and Shao Linghang looked at the candlestick in contemplation.

It was destined to be a sleepless night.

The next day was a cloudy day, Su Ke went to the warehouse early, and Dong's mother hadn't come yet. Su Ke thought about it and prepared tea for her according to Dong's mother's usual habits. Who knew that at the right moment, Chongfang, the eldest girl in charge of the third wife's side, sent Su Ke three sets of keys to the treasury, "Mother Dong is not feeling well today, so she took leave from her wife, and Miss Ke'er will take care of it for a day temporarily." ”

Su Ke respectfully took the key, asked about Dong's mother's condition, and then only smiled and stopped talking.

Chongfang looked at Su Ke carefully for a few moments, feeling very strange at her silence.

When she first arrived, the mother of the housekeeper at the top took a leave of absence for no reason, and she either panicked and said that she could not carry the burden, or she swore a promise to please her. Before coming, the third wife instructed that no matter which kind of Su Ke was, she would be given a dismissal. But unexpectedly, Su Ke didn't say anything.

"Miss Ke'er knows everything about the warehouse?" Chongfang asked tentatively.

Su Ke shook his head generously, "I only followed Mother Dong yesterday to see the process of receiving things, and there are still many things to learn." But my sister also said that Dong's mother was just a little cold, and she estimated that she would be able to go to work tomorrow. On this day, I will deal with it first, whether it is right or not, and I will ask for advice when Dong's mother comes. ”

Chongfang has been by the third wife's side for a long time, and since the third wife presided over the feed, she has learned a lot of things and met all kinds of people. Su Ke can be regarded as a person who plays Tai Chi very well.

"The public treasury is not as good as each house, and it is not enough to deal with it, and it is not possible to be sloppy." Chongfang's smile gradually faded, "The previous Mrs. Liu was just to cope with errands, and she was sent to the Grange for twenty boards." This is still hindering Dong's mother from being in-laws with her, and the master is gracious. ”

Su Ke cooperated with a hint of fear, but he couldn't help but think in his heart, then Mrs. Liu's fault is not only "coping with errands", and the matter of breaking into the treasury is not mentioned? What was damaged and damaged is not to blame in the past?

Chongfang was a little satisfied with Su Ke's cooperation, and said with a smile: "Now that Miss Ke'er has taken the lack of Mrs. Liu, she must not make the mistakes made by her predecessors again, so as not to bring the family tired." ”

The meaning of these words can be thought of like this, Mrs. Liu has caused such a big disaster, and she can only play 20 boards and distribute the grange, which is completely due to the close relationship between Dong's mother and the third wife. Although she Su Ke is the niece of the housekeeper Furui, she is also a distant relative, and when the time comes, whether Furui will help her is another matter, I am afraid that even Furui's family will be implicated because of her. After all, the back house is still fed by the third wife in the host.

"Sister's words, Ke'er remembered." Su Ke replied softly, "The predecessors planted trees and the later people enjoyed the shade, how could I forget Mrs. Liu." ”

When Chongfang heard this, his breathing suddenly suffocated, but he immediately returned to normal.

This Su Ke is really hiding needles, how Mrs. Liu went, she should know better than anyone else. Now that one is planting a tree and the other is enjoying the shade, she is embarrassed to say. Mrs. Liu is to blame, isn't she falling into the ground?

"Okay, I still have to go back to deal with the third wife." Chongfang's face tensed, and he lifted his feet and left.

Su Ke stood in place and was a little dumbfounded, knowing that he shouldn't say the last word, but he still couldn't hold back. Chongfang's words were prepared both inside and out, since she had thought about it, it was actually no good for her to have such a hard top. Besides, she doesn't know what position she is in now, yesterday Zhou Gongzi said that he would bring her loyalty to Hou Ye, I don't know when Hou Ye means it, and she should be honest in the middle of the time.

The problem of not eating words must be changed. Su Ke muttered secretly.

Since Dong's mother did not go to work, Su Ke took the key to inspect the warehouse, and the six rough mothers-in-law cleaned the inside and outside of the warehouse in this vacancy. There was still some time before the person who received the things came, Su Ke was idle for a while, and asked those mothers-in-law curiously, "Have you seen the Hou Ye himself?" ”

Wang Guigui's family hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Hou Ye has naturally seen it, when he was a child, he didn't waste flowers and trees in the garden, and he was simply a demon king of the world. Later, when I was older, I moved to the outer courtyard, and the husband alone was angry and walked away, and I always heard that I was beaten by the old marquis again. Later, the old marquis died, and the marquis took care of the funeral and inherited the title, and he stood up all of a sudden. The old lady originally wanted the third master to help the coffin back to the south for burial, but the Hou Ye refused, so he had to go in person. I went for three years, but before half of the third year, there was a fight in the north, and the Hou Ye wore filial piety to the battlefield. This has been going for four years, in February this year, the class just returned to the DPRK, and in April went down to the south again, isn't this just back for more than a month, really didn't stay in the house for a few days. ”

"Hou Ye went south in April?" Su Ke listened carefully to this long speech, but the hints that were faintly revealed in these words surprised her

Wang Guigui's family still wanted to continue to show off, so he naturally nodded in response, "Yes, the ancestral home of the Shao family is in Nanjing, and the Hou Ye came back after earning military merits, and he didn't finish his filial piety for three years, so he left for Nanjing to worship his ancestors after handing over the military power, and he only came back at the end of August." ”

End of August? Wouldn't that be a return to Beijing with Zhou Gongzi?

Su Ke's heart moved slightly, thinking of the greeting post of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, thinking of the magnificent official ship on the Qinhuai Wharf, and the miscellaneous fragments gradually outlined an outline, pulling a terrible fact - Hou Ye and Zhou Gongzi were traveling together.

If this is the case, then Hou Ye already knew her identity, and everything he did was to help Zhou Gongzi deal with the aftermath. And Zhou Gongzi had already planned to stuff her into the Hou Mansion a long time ago, and the so-called free body turned out to be all for her. So if there was no stiffness last night, would the two compartments be safe and smooth, and one day her door would be opened for him?

"What's wrong with the girl? Why is your face so bad all of a sudden? Wang Guijia's eyes were very sharp.

Su Ke broke out in a cold sweat, and shook his head with a reluctant smile, "It's okay, I didn't sleep well last night." ”

"Steward Dong didn't come today, the girl can take a rest. I was tired of cleaning up the warehouse a few days ago. Wang Guigui's eyes were squeezed at Su Ke, "The girl will find a place to squint, if there is something, I will go back and forth to the girl." ”

Su Ke didn't have the guts, and he felt even more disgusted with Wang Guigui's kindness.

"Let's all go to work, someone will come to collect the things later." Su Ke sent them all away, and sat alone under the porch in front of the main house, and the more he thought about it, the more sad he became. A feeling of being sold and counting money for others arises spontaneously.

However, it did not hurt the spring and autumn for too long, and as soon as it passed, people from all over the house came to receive things one after another.

Dong's mother was not there, Su Ke couldn't control the account book, just checked the card check list, and then took the rough mother-in-law to carry things out to the person who supported it. Fortunately, the warehouse was personally organized by Su Ke, and there was an impression of where everything was placed. Although it was only the next day, he was officially on duty in the warehouse, and there was no delay or delay. Besides, when you get busy, a lot of worries can be put aside.

At this time, a girl with an obvious head and face came to the treasury with two little maids, put the cards in Su Ke's hand, and said softly: "I'll get red ginseng." ”

Su Ke looked down at the right cards, and it was indeed given by the third wife. But the problem is --

Red ginseng? There's no such thing in the storeroom.
