Chapter 135: Unveiling the Rods (14)
"You ......" After being stunned for a while, Mu Qing asked himself, but because he was distracted, he misheard, so he asked again: "What did you just say?" ”
Du Ruhui tilted her head back, with a satisfied smile, and looked at the expression on her face closely, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips. Even though she didn't let the reputation of her eyebrows go out, she was still an ordinary woman in a panic at the moment.
He couldn't bear to tease her anymore, brushed away the banter on his face, leaned over to her, and whispered in his ear. But seeing that her expression changed very quickly, she was relieved at first, then surprised, then hesitant, and finally locked her eyebrows and thought deeply, and said slowly, "Then you have to ask her what she means first." ”
"Yes, she has to be willing to do this." Du Ruhui said: "I have to persuade you more from the side." ”
When Mu Qing came out of the main house, Ah Liu was panicking in his heart, seeing her push the door out, before he saw her face, his hands were already flustered, and he pricked the silver needle twice, and the silver needle hoop also slipped from his fingers to the ground.
Du Ruhui came out behind her, and saw Ah Liu's embarrassment at a glance, and roughly guessed why she was so flustered, she was funny in her heart, but she was also secretly lucky for Mu Qing, and she was far better than her brothers and sisters who had the same blood in her family.
Because Du Ruhui instructed without further ado, Mu Qing called Ah Yue when he left the main house, took her hand, and went to her house to talk. Until it was dark, I saw Mu Qing come out of the house alone, the look on his face was indescribable, but he didn't see Ah Yue come out.
Ah Liu waited for a long time and didn't see her come out, so he prepared dinner and set the table by himself. Just as Mu Qing came out, just stepped forward to ask her what the situation was, Du Ruhui hurriedly came out of the main house and asked in a low voice: "Is she okay?" ”
Mu Qing sighed quietly, closed his eyes and nodded.
Du Ruhui put his arm around her shoulder, "It may not be a good place, who can predict everything in the future, and with her background, it is not humiliating." ”
"But that's ...... after all"
"Everyone has their own ambitions, and she's not a fool. Yes. She had her own plans. He put his arm around her shoulders and led her to the dining table, "Mo Duo thought, he should have eaten first." ”
Mu Qing was taken to the dining table. Stared at the food on the table for a while. Raise your voice to summon Aliu. "Ah Yue's dinner, just bring it in for her. From tomorrow onwards, don't ask her to do things again. ”
End. She sighed again, "That's it, with her appearance, ordinary people can't afford it, or there is only that place to go." ”
In the next two days, Ah Yue hardly left the house, and the food was also brought in by Ah Liu, sometimes eating a few bites, and sometimes taking them out again without moving. After Mu Qing went in once, he obviously ate a few more bites.
On the third day, as soon as the sky was slightly translucent, Mu Qing had already sat down in front of the makeup mirror, and Ah Liu put up a straight Suiyun bun for her, and she was not very happy when she looked at it left and right, "When it comes to buns, there is really no one who can beat Ah Yue's skillful hands." ”
She was about to break it up and comb it again, but Mu Qing waved her hand to stop it, "It's just rude in front of people, why bother to be extremely exquisite." Mu Qing nodded reassuringly, raised his hand to straighten the treasure flower golden hairpin, pointed to a box of jewelry on the dressing table and said: "Send it to Ah Yue, let her choose to use it at will, and her body is similar to mine, if the dress and shawl are suitable for her, you don't have to go back to me, just take it, be sure to dress up elegantly." ”
After waiting in the house for a whole morning, everyone in the house was careful even in the aisle, Mu Qing glanced at Ah Yue's house from time to time, but never saw her come out, she was worried in her heart, and her mind recalled her hesitation when she promised over and over again, and even shed a few lines of tears, if she thought about it repeatedly, and regretted it, then where should she and Du Ruyan be.
After hesitating for more than an hour, Du Qi quickly ran in from outside the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he ran straight up the stone steps in a few steps, and rushed to Mu Qingdao, who was sitting hesitantly in the house: "Coming, coming." ”
Mu Qing took a deep breath, got up and walked to Ah Yue's room, and knocked lightly at the door twice, "This is where people come to see, since you have made up your mind to go up this road, it is all up to you whether to stand on the branches or fall into the mud swamp in the future." ”
While talking, Du Ruhui led the two of them and let each other into the house. One is Pei Lian, who has been with him in Nanloufang for more than two months. The other is slightly shorter, with half-white hair, but his eyes are extremely steady, Du Ruhui respectfully called him "Mr. Liu", it is Liu Wenjing, who was recently rescued from prison by Li Shimin.
Mu Qing put on a just right smile, stepped forward with humble steps, and saluted, "Mr. Liu, Supervisor Pei Gong is well." ”
Liu Wenjing and Pei Lin looked at her together, but they were afraid of being rude, so they didn't dare to look carefully, so they only looked up and down slightly, and returned the salute. "This is Qi Niang?" Pei Lin said with a smile, "I heard that Qi Niang was brave and scheming, and she didn't lose under Keming, but she didn't want her character to be so beautiful, but after Mr. Gu, she never lived up to her reputation." ”
This big compliment made Mu Qing a little at a loss, and it was not appropriate to give in, so he had to bow his head and smile lightly, "Qi Niang often trespasses, and she teaches Pei Gongjian to praise it falsely." ”
Liu Wenjing on the side didn't say a word, smiled slightly and saluted Mu Qing's head, but the corners of his eyes swept coldly towards Pei Lian. Du Ruyan laughed a few times, raised his hand and spread it to the main house, "Mo Li is polite, go and talk inside." ”
The four of them walked up the stone steps to the main house together, until they sat down, Pei Lin still smiled, and reluctantly praised Du Ruhui: "Keming, you are the most blessed, you have a wife like this, what more can you ask for." ”
Du Ruhui couldn't treat him as indifferently as Liu Wenjing, so he had to clench his fist with one hand, put it between his mouth and nose, and laughed a few times with his meaning.
Mu Qingzheng was about to call someone to serve tea, so he could block Pei Lian's mouth. Called twice but no one answered, feeling strange and embarrassed, a rough servant woman in the house held a pile of utensils, cautiously walked in, did not dare to look up, and did not know how to salute, just blindly put those things one by one, Mu Qingtou looked at it, but saw that it was a small red clay stove for making tea, a set of exquisite tea sets brought from Jiangnan, and a light blue brocade mat.
Du Ruhui glanced at her with a puzzled face. She was also strange, and was about to ask the servant woman a question, but the servant woman laid out her utensils, stooped down, and withdrew.
Mu Qing came back to his senses and suddenly realized that he couldn't help but praise this opening repeatedly.
After a while, I saw a figure shaking in front of the door of the main house, and Nana walked in with a stunning woman. Mu Qing raised her eyes and saw that she was a person who knew how to dress up. Now it's even more carefully depicted. It has been carefully matched, but the proportion is just right, not too ostentatious, and not shrunken.
But I saw her loosely combed a reverse bun. Stacked diagonally on one side. Flexibility in weakness. Left a lock of swallowtail scattered on the back, in order to make it clear that he is a good family who has not yet come out of the cabinet. The hair bun is not stacked, and there are not many hairpin ring jewelry in the makeup box sent by Mu Qing to Ah Liu. But there are a few kinds of precious ones, none of which she chooses, even gold and silver are discarded, and only embellished with a little pearl and emerald.
A full-breasted skirt with light green floral patterns on a white background, unwrapped in a shawl, only two diamond knots on the chest with dark green silk, hanging down on both sides. The face was thinly applied with some vegetarian powder, no swallow branches, and his face was slightly pale, but he dotted a bright red droplet-shaped flower on his forehead, because Mu Qing never applied the flower, and it was difficult to see this thing in the house, and she didn't go out these days, and I don't know where she came from.
The bright red droplets of water crouched on the tip of her eyebrows, trembling slightly with her eyebrows, as if they were about to drip down at any time, and the heart of the teacher also trembled slightly. Take a closer look, it wasn't a Huadian originally, but she used cinnabar with a peach swallow branch to describe it, which was better than the dull Huadian.
"Ah Yue has seen all Ah Lang." She moved her steps lightly, walked to the house, and bowed down, whether she was born in a big clan or not, and her manners were a little lacking, which was okay, and she could get it with more practice.
None of them answered, so she stood in the middle of the room. Mu Qing turned his eyes to see that Du Ruhui was quite proud, looking at Liu Wenjing and Pei Lian. Liu Wenjing nodded, satisfied and satisfied. Pei Lin was a little stunned and amazed. Mu Qing waved her hand lightly to signal her to straighten up, and the other three came back to their senses one by one.
Ah Yue retreated to the side, kneeling on the light blue brocade mat, guarding the wind stove to cook tea, the four people in the room did not speak, only quietly watched her cook tea, Ah Yue was not ashamed, calmly and lightly squeezed the tea, washed the cup and filtered the tea.
"Have you ever read any books?" Liu Wenjing suddenly asked Ah Yue.
Ah Yue put down the tea set in her hand, turned around slightly in the direction of Liu Wenjing, and replied: "Ah Yue's life experience is scattered, and she has not tasted many opportunities to be educated, thanks to the lady's daily teachings. ”
"The posture and etiquette are all good." Liu Wenjing nodded to Du Ruhui with a smile.
Four teas were obtained, she put the tea on the serving plate, Yingying stood up, but suddenly hesitated, and the first tea didn't know who to send it to. Mu Qingchao secretly gave her a look, lowered her eyes and glanced at Pei Lian, how clever Ah Yue was, she immediately understood, and walked to Pei Lin with the end plate, holding a cup of tea in both hands, and bowing down in front of his case.
Pei Lin slowly stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, stared at her for a moment, suddenly turned his wrist, and splashed the hot tea on her skirt, which instantly became wet.
Ah Yue raised her head in horror and opened her eyes wide, and the water fluctuated in her eyes. Pei Lianhu lowered his face and said sharply: "Confused things! I am a guest with Mr. Liu, and he is the oldest of the crowd, this tea is not given to Mr. Liu first, but to me first, but deliberately teach people to think that I am frivolous? ”
Everyone was shocked, and in an instant, they understood Pei Lian's intentions, and they all focused on Ah Yue, waiting to see how she reacted.
Ah Yue still knelt and sat in place, already suppressing the initial shock, steady in tone, lowered his eyes and bowed to Pei Lian, "Ah Yue has little knowledge, it is inevitable that the etiquette is not thorough, and now that he has learned it today, he will no longer make mistakes and teach people to laugh, so I want to thank Pei Gongjian for his teachings." ”
Du Ruhui and Mu Qing's faces flashed with irrepressible smiles at the same time, and this was it.
Pei Lin was slightly surprised, and then laughed loudly, "How do you know that I am the Jinyang Palace Eunuch?" ”
"Ah Yue knows where she is going, since the people who come from that place look at each other and choose, if the eunuch Pei Gong is not from the Jinyang Palace, there will be no such temptation."
Pei Lin was even more surprised, raised his eyebrows and said strangely: "How do you know that suitability is a temptation and not a real anger?" ”
Ah Yue smiled slightly, lowered her eyes, and looked at the wet skirt, "If Concubine Pei is really annoyed, Ah Yue is sitting in front of Concubine Pei, this hot tea should be poured directly on the face, how can it bypass the face, neck, and even arms, and splash it on the skirt." This privately guessed that the eunuch of the Pei Palace was interested in Ah Yue, and he just wanted to try Ah Yue's strain, so he deliberately avoided his face and did not burn it. ”
"Very good, very good." Pei Lin stroked his palms and nodded, "It is said that Qi Niang is capable of stakes, and those who don't want to be trained are also so prominent, and a good future is just around the corner." Tomorrow I will send someone to pick him up in the Jinyang Palace. (To be continued......) R1292
