Human affection is as thin as paper (1)

By the end of the day, the group had entered the city of Wu County. As the female shopkeeper said, it is rare to see men. At first, Mu Qing hung up the curtains and looked out, and saw those laborers, either muddy or seriously injured, overwhelmed by heavy labor, and their behavior was terrible. She couldn't bear it, and she felt sad when she saw it, so she simply put down the curtain on the car and stopped looking. Du Ruhui sighed a few times, did not shy away from her, and said a few words of extravagance, labor and money, and ruin.

In the blink of an eye, the town of Fortune is already in sight. The two cars were parked on the side, and they couldn't bear to part. "Wait for me for fifty days, and I will come to my door on the fifty-first day." Du Ruhui said: "I will leave Ada with you, you just need to say that he is the coachman who came with Yu Hang, and arrange for him to live at home." If there is anything important, consult with him, and if you send him, send him, and trust him. ”

Mu Qing took out a silver key from the silver ball sachet he was carrying, and handed it to Du Ruhui, "There is a box in the car in front of me that I brought from Yuhang, which is the dowry left by my father, although it is just some books, calligraphy and paintings, but it is worth a lot of money, and it is inconvenient to be around me, can you take it to Jiangdu, and lock it in the warehouse of the inn?" Du Ruhui took the key, and she instructed again, "Not to mention that it is priceless, just because it is all the thoughts that Daddy left me, it is valuable enough, and it must be collected." ”

Du Ruhui held her hand and smiled faintly, "Don't worry." Take care of yourself and wait for me to pick you up. After speaking, he didn't wait for Mu Qing to say a word of farewell, and quickly got out of the car, saw that he had a few more words of advice to Ada, and walked with him to the car that Du Qi was driving in front of him. Aliu got out of the car and hugged a number of packages, and Ada took her things and returned to the car.

Mu Qing's eyes were fixed on the car in front of him, until Du Ruhui got into the car and Du Qi drove away, then he let out a long sigh and sat back in the car with Ah Liu. Ada continued to drive his horse forward towards the town of Guangfu.

Wu County's Gu Mansion is much larger than Yuhang's, and when he arrives in the town, he doesn't need to ask, he can see the gate of the tall and majestic Zhengxi Hou Mansion from a distance, Mu Qing was nervous for no reason, holding Ah Liu's hand, and a thin layer of fine and slippery sweat stains appeared in his palm.

"Qi Niang is a little homesick? How can you be afraid of sweating with one hand? Ah Liu deliberately teased her, thinking that he wanted to make her laugh so that she could relax.

Mu Qing knew her intentions, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile, "What's the matter." Then he said uneasily: "It's better to be patient here than in Yuhang." ”

When he arrived at the gate, Ada stepped forward to report to the servant at the door, but the servant did not dare to slack off, so he hurriedly went in to deliver the message. After a short time, a housekeeper brought a few maids to welcome him out. Ah Liu got out of the car and moved the footstool, helped Mu Qing get out of the car, several little maids all saluted in a proper manner, the housekeeper's attitude was very arrogant, only swept the corner of her eyes, and conveniently called someone to come over to settle the carriage and horses, and saw that there was nothing to move, so she arranged for Ada and Ah Liu to rest and wait.

Mu Qing bowed modestly, "Youlao, this mother, please lead me to meet my grandfather." ”

The housekeeper hummed lukewarmly, and made a vain salute, "Please come with me." I sneered in my heart, hum, the daughter of a monk has not been educated in vain for all these years, but she is a courtesy.

Mu Qing followed the steward to the deep house, and after four entrances, he arrived at the main courtyard. When I entered the door, I saw a dying old man sitting on a circle chair in the hall, surrounded by two women in their teens, both of whom had a bit of complexion, thinking that they should be the concubines of the Marquis of Zhengxi.

"Hurry up and meet the Marquis of Zhengxi." The housekeeper whispered behind her.

Mu Qing hurriedly bowed, "Mu Qing has seen Zhengxihou. "Because it was from the concubine, the Gu family was heavy, and Mu Qing didn't dare to call Zhengxihou his grandfather.

Zheng Xihou seemed to be quite satisfied, his face was still light, he glanced at Mu Qing a few times, and pointed to a maid, "Go and call her father." He ordered Mu Qing to get up and reply, "Yesterday I had to report that Mr. and Mrs. Zhong were dead, but no one reported that you were going back to Wu County." ”

Mu Qing didn't know how to tell Sù Zheng Xihou, she was hated by the Yu Hang Gu brothers because of Yuan Tiangang's unprovoked prophecy, because of Daddy's sudden illness, she didn't have time to enter Yu Hang Gu's genealogy, and because of her admiration for Du Ruhui, she broke the original marriage contract with Yu Li. In the end, there is a suspicion of escape. If it is according to the truth, with the Gu family's family style, even if Yu Li can be relieved, the clan will not tolerate it, and it will definitely be beaten out with a stick.

The words turned around a few times in his mouth, and finally said: "Mu Qing is stupid, he has not entered the Yuhang genealogy, and he is a member of the Gu Mansion of Wu County." Now he has no support in Yuhang, and he only knows that he should come back to conquer Xihou. ”

Fortunately, Mu Qing was humble in the clan, and the Marquis of Zhengxi didn't have the heart to study so much, so he waved his hand, "That's it, that's it, when your father comes, I'll go back with your father." ”

Gu Li came quickly, and the messenger had already informed him in advance that Qi Niang had returned home, and when he entered the door and saw Mu Qing, he was still stunned.

Mu Qing looked at his biological father, but he felt very strange. Gu Li's appearance is very outstanding in the clan, Mu Qing's appearance is similar to him, and they all feel familiar with each other, but they don't know each other at all. She carefully saluted him in a trance. Gu Li hurriedly helped, "Don't be so angry." ”

Mu Qing smiled slightly and nodded, "How is Mother?" ”

"I'm thinking about you." Saying that, Gu Li led Mu Qing out the door, "Go back and meet her, your mother doesn't know that you are coming back, so she must be happy." ”

Gu Liyi took Mu Qing to the outside of the house, and when he arrived at the door, a small servant had already summoned Ada and Ah Liu, set up the car again, and stood at the door waiting. Ah Liu saw that someone was leading Mu Qing out, and looking at the looks of the two, it should be Mu Qing's father, so he obediently took Ada to salute and called him "Ah Lang".

Gu Li's house is in the back alley, and you don't have to get in the car, just a few steps away. A man who looked like a coachman came out and led Ada to unload the horses and settle the horses. Ah Liu followed Mu Qing into the house together.

The house is not big, only two enters. It is as big as the Yizhu courtyard when Mu Qing was in Yuhang Gufu, the courtyard, the pavilion and the water pavilion, the pond are all gone, only in the center of each grid of the field character there is a tree thicker than the mouth of the bowl, there is an octagonal well in the corner of the wall, a few vines are growing vigorously, and the whole house is neatly tidied up.

Just after stepping through the second door, a woman walked out of the main room, about forty years old, straight towards Mu Qing, and called out in her mouth, "Qi Niang, son." "It was Mu Qing's own mother, Chen. Before Mu Qing could salute, he was hugged by Chen, and Gu Li persuaded on the side: "Okay, okay, I have something to say in the house." ”
