Chapter 120: Affection for her
"I hid it from you at that time, first, because I was afraid that you would worry, and secondly, I didn't want to disturb your heart to worship the Buddha, so I made the decision to let her go back quietly."
The old lady nodded and said lightly, "This kid has a heart." In his words, he completely believed Aunt Zhang's words.
Aunt Zhang held back the joy in her heart, remembering that she had been secretly doing that to the old lady, and her heart instantly became more confident.
After a slight pause, she added, "Who knew that when she returned to the vicinity of the Moon Cliff, she heard the news that the lord and his wife went there together, and even the eldest lady was there; Mingyue was worried, so she changed her route to Banyue Cliff. ”
Perhaps it was the nickname of the Moon Cliff that made the old lady feel sick in her heart, she subconsciously frowned, and her face that had just eased down was cold again, "Mingyue is the Moon Cliff who followed her father, what about Yan Gongzi?" And why did he go? ”
She really didn't understand what was so good about the place in the Moon Cliff, and one or two ran there like crazy demons.
"This ...... The concubine thinks it's better for you to ask the eldest lady," Aunt Zhang's eyes flashed, and she diverted the topic a little curtly, "It's not convenient for the concubine to discuss this issue with you." ”
Even the concubine body came out!
The old lady frowned, swept her eyes coldly, and her face sank a little, "What does this have to do with the eldest lady?" ”
"How...... It would be okay. Aunt Zhang was originally very reasonable, but after thinking about it later, she immediately weakened her voice.
The old lady was in a hesitant mood, and immediately glanced at her impatiently, and reprimanded, "If you know the truth, you quickly told me, what are you avoiding here!" ”
"Then I said, what if the master asks me about it?" Aunt Zhang quietly raised her head and glanced at the old lady hesitantly, the implication was that she wanted the old lady to shoulder all the responsibilities so that she could tell the truth.
Mu Tianda is the biological son of the old lady, no matter what happens to his mother, Mu Tianda will not be excessive; But she is different, she is just a concubine who is not pleased with her husband, and that kind of thing is said by her mouth, and if she really turns over the old account in the future, she may really face the situation of not being able to eat and walk around at any time.
The old lady nodded, glanced at her, and her tone was slightly solemn, "I have to bear it, you can just say it." ”
"I have asked Yan Gongzi privately, and he said that the eldest lady secretly asked him to go to the Moon Cliff."
These words were tantamount to a bomb, and the old lady was suddenly startled, and glared at her with straight eyes, "What you said is true?" ”
Aunt Zhang nodded quickly, "This matter can be big or small, I have repeatedly confirmed with Yan Gongzi before I dare to tell you the truth." ”
"Who doesn't know that the old lady is like protecting his own eyeballs, who dares to arrange the gossip of the eldest lady, let alone this kind of thing."
The old lady was still suspicious, not because she didn't believe in Yan or Shi, but because she knew too well that this niece had always been tricked and clever.
She looked at Aunt Zhang very sternly and asked repeatedly, "Are you sure?" In addition to verbally revealing this to you, does Yan Gongzi have any other evidence? ”
In the old lady's consciousness, empty vernacular is the most unreliable, and such a serious matter is related to a woman's name and even affects lifelong happiness, so it is natural to have real evidence.
Aunt Zhang buried her head lower in embarrassment, "Yan Gongzi showed me some notes, and the eldest lady wrote to him privately." ”
These words are equivalent to directly confirming that Mu Xiaofeng and Yan He did receive each other privately.
Moreover, Aunt Zhang's words are all about how the eldest lady is, and she also vaguely hints to the old lady that Yan Gongzi is very innocent, and the eldest lady takes the initiative to seduce others!
The old lady was stunned, pondered, and slowly leaned back in her chair and sat up straight.
After a while, she glanced at Aunt Zhang and said slowly, "So, the eldest lady took the initiative to ask Yan Gongzi to go to the Moon Cliff?" ”
As for where to go and what to do?
In the wilderness, lonely men and widows.
If the woman takes the initiative, it's not just a little bit. Regardless of whether the man has affection for the woman or not, in some things, he can't resist the temptation.
Aunt Zhang didn't dare to look at the old lady's pensive eyes, so she only avoided her gaze and nodded quickly, "What Gongzi Yan said is indeed so. "If it turns out that something is wrong when you examine it a day, it is someone else who is lying, not her.
Aunt Zhang put all the blame on Mu Xiaofeng without a trace, but the old lady was not so old that she was so confused that she was what she said.
Even if the old lady is very fond of her on weekdays, she is still skeptical at the moment.
The main thing is that the matter is too high, and the old lady does not dare to draw rash conclusions based on her words.
"Then Yan Gongzi can say, where did the eldest lady ask him to go?" If Yan or Shi had no intention, Mu Xiaofeng couldn't do this kind of thing for no reason, right?
"Yan Gongzi said that the eldest lady asked someone to send him a letter, saying that they were going to Banyue Cliff to get together and discuss important matters."
The old lady looked at her silently for a while, and said curiously, "When did the eldest lady become so familiar with him?" "Have something important to discuss? Asking a foreign man to go out into the wilderness?
Aunt Zhang's face immediately showed a tangled and embarrassed look.
The old lady glared at her unhappily, and immediately said coldly, "If you have anything to say, do you still need to talk to me?" ”
"Then I said, the old lady is not allowed to say that I have a broken mouth and learn how to chew on right and wrong." Aunt Zhang said that, and immediately looked at the old lady nervously, looking like she was afraid that the old lady would blame.
The old lady suddenly smiled, "I'm still playing with my eyes, let's talk quickly." ”
Aunt Zhang saw her smile, and her heart seemed to let go, and her expression was relieved and she immediately laughed, "Old lady, you are as discerning as a torch, in front of your old man, of course my little trick is not enough." ”
"Still poor!" The old lady couldn't help laughing, and looked at her with a pretended seriousness, "What a discernment, I'm not the official master who tried the case." ”
Aunt Zhang's sycophant shot very well, and the old lady's face finally turned from cloudy to sunny.
She smiled and hurriedly complimented again, "The old lady is not an official outside, but you are the official master of our Mu Mansion, and our family's affairs need an old ancestor like you to be in charge." ”
The old lady looked at her with a smile, "The farther and farther it goes, don't say it quickly." ”
Aunt Zhang smiled, straightened her expression, and said slowly, "I don't know if the old lady still remembers the day when the Marquis of Changyi's mansion came to make a big fuss about retiring from her relatives?" ”
This was not a glorious thing, and the old lady's face was immediately dyed with a layer of frost. Nodding his head, he said, "I can't forget." ”
"Actually, Mrs. Qiu said a very right thing that day, groundless wind may not be without cause." Aunt Zhang lowered her head, looking worried, "Maybe the eldest lady and Yan Gongzi had no personal relationship at the beginning, but later, they ...... The eldest lady gets along with Yan Gongzi a lot, and it is inevitable that she will ......"
"Love over time?" The old lady snorted, and the corners of her eyes suddenly rose.
"That's probably the case," Aunt Zhang said more and more cautiously, "After all, Yan Gongzi is modest and handsome, and he is young and promising, if the eldest lady gradually has any thoughts about him, it is also human nature." ”
Aunt Zhang really didn't say this at all, the first half of the sentence was enough, but the second half of the sentence was too.
Young and promising, do you still need to live in Mufu as a nobleman?
It is nice to say that the guest house is good, but to put it bluntly, it is a dead skin and a white face, and a white meal.
But the old lady likes to hear this, Aunt Zhang just puts two more halos on her body, and she doesn't think there is anything wrong.
"That's really the case!" The old lady frowned again, and she had believed Aunt Zhang's words seven or eight points in her own words.
"Then what does Yan Gongzi mean to the eldest lady?" If you are really interested in Mu Xiaofeng's girl, you can marry Mingyue again...... Isn't that unjust?
After learning about what happened at Banyue Cliff, Aunt Zhang seemed to have regarded Yan or Shi as a quasi-son-in-law in her heart, and naturally took it as her duty to protect him all the time.
If you have a bad impression in front of the old lady, where can the bright moon be better in the future.
She pondered for a while before she said in a low voice, "The eldest lady is so affectionate, she took the initiative to show favor to Yan Gongzi, and Yan Gongzi is the age of blood and strength, if you really don't have a good impression of the eldest lady, this is also a lie." ”
Aunt Zhang knows that things are three points true and three points false, and then three points of confusing truth and falsehood are easy to convince.
Of course, she will not say all the bad things in one mouth, nor will she shape Yan or Shi into a super decent gentleman in one bite.
After saying it all in one mouth, how can she continue to talk about it next.
"Otherwise, he wouldn't have received the eldest lady's vague letter and rushed to the Moon Cliff," Aunt Zhang was afraid that she would misunderstand, so she hurriedly added, "But although he has a good impression of the eldest lady, he has always been polite." ”
The old lady couldn't help frowning and nodding when she heard it, "That's the back...... What's going on? ”
Aunt Zhang's heart was tangled and twisted, she understood that the old lady wanted to know how her Mingyue would sleep with Yan or Shi later.
But this thing ...... Naturally, the truth could not be told to the old lady.
She struggled for a long time before she was extremely embarrassed and said, "I asked Mingyue and Yan Gongzi respectively, and they both said that they were surprised to see each other in the cabin with the moon cliff, and they were talking, and then somehow they passed out, and they woke up again...... That's what the old man saw when they arrived. ”
The old lady was immediately furious, "You mean that someone secretly used that kind of medicine on them?" ”
Aunt Zhang nodded and shook her head, "I guess it should be, but it is said that there is no such medicine found in the wooden house or around." ”
The old lady was stunned and muttered, "This is really a strange case." ”
Aunt Zhang glanced at her quietly, and saw that her demeanor was still peaceful, so she should generally believe what she said, right?
"Alas, no matter what, since the matter has happened," Aunt Zhang heard her sigh, her heart hung up, the old lady glanced at her, and said quietly, "Then arrange for Mingyue to marry Yan Gongzi as soon as possible, this is also what her father meant." ”
Aunt Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the old lady didn't dig into the root of the matter.
The old lady paused for a moment, suddenly looked at her with burning eyes, and asked meaninglessly, "Fortunately, Yan Gongzi doesn't have any affection for Xiaofeng's girl, right?" ”
