Chapter 144: People are divided into groups
After Rong'er left, Duanyue was able to move chopsticks. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info took the chopsticks and pulled the talent on the plate a few times, and there was not much left. Fortunately, there are only three people to eat, and they are still full of food. Although the amount is small, in all fairness, the dishes made by Lu Qingyi himself are indeed different from the dishes made by the chefs in Ninghou's mansion.
"You guys go back first." Lu Qingyi put down the dishes and chopsticks, and saw that Duanyue and Xu Xiachu on the opposite side had already eaten with round stomachs, and his eyes fell on Duanyue. "I still have a lot of things to deal with here, so I won't play with you."
Duanyue blinked, slightly puzzled. "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing," Lu Qingyi smiled lightly, like a breeze. "In the past, there was no hostess in Ninghou Mansion, and some messy things were delayed, but now that I am here, I can't just let these things go. It's still quite troublesome for so many people in Ninghou's Mansion. ”
"Alright then, I'll go first. Sister-in-law, don't work too hard. Duanyue nodded at Lu Qingyi, and she got up and left Qu. Xu Xiachu also left behind her.
Lu Qingyi waved his hand and asked his subordinates to clean up the dishes and chopsticks on the table. She stood in the doorway, muttering to herself. "Let Rong'er send something, why don't you come back for half a day, it's almost half an hour." Blowing the cool breeze of the night, Lu Qingyi stood for a while and then shook his head helplessly, turned around slowly and took down an account book from the shelf, and then calmed down and calculated carefully.
Duanyue flicked her sleeves and walked briskly on the gravel road. She glanced back at Xu Xiachu, who was following behind her, and stopped thoughtfully.
Xu Xiachu looked at Duanyue looking at herself like this, a little at a loss, and asked awkwardly. "Watch me do what?"
"How's it going to be about what I asked you to check before?" Duanyue's tone sank, and she instantly became serious.
As soon as she reminded her, Xu Xiachu remembered that Duanyue had asked him to help investigate the little wolf and the shopkeeper of the nonsense restaurant. It's just that too many things have happened during this time, so he hasn't had time to tell Duanyue. If you don't have time now, that's all for now.
Xu Xiachu subconsciously looked around, and saw that there was no one around, so he put away his expression and replied quietly. "I've had my men investigate. The little wolf's background is unclear, its origin is unclear, as if it appeared out of thin air, and no one knows where he came from. On the contrary, Hu Yan of the Huyan Restaurant is very easy to find out, she started in Ganzhou, and has been trading with foreigners all the year round, and there is no major problem. ”
Saying that, Xu Xiachu touched her chin, revealing an uneasy look. "The more I couldn't find the little wolf, the more I felt that there was something wrong with this person. How can a normal person not have a past? ”
Duanyue pursed her lips, her face a little embarrassed. "Actually, there is one most important thing, I have been hiding from you and have not dared to say." She swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looking very squirming. "Little wolf, he is not a Han Chinese, but a Uighur......"
"I'll just say it! I always feel weird when I look at his appearance! Xu Xiachu slapped her thigh, looking indignant.
He frowned at Duanyue with a pair of sword eyebrows and shook his head indignantly. "You think you've lived too long, don't you? If the Hou Ye had known that you had brought a Uighur to the Ninghou Mansion, he would not have killed you! ”
"Is it that serious...... Duanyue lowered her head and clasped her fingers very uneasily, whispering softly.
Xu Xiachu sighed helplessly. "Knowing that Hou Ye hates the Uighurs so much, and still doing such a thing, isn't it a slap in the face? As far as I think, you should hurry up and get him out, lest any trouble arise in the future. ”
Even if Xu Xiachu persuaded him so much, Duanyue was still reluctant. She looked embarrassed and was very entangled in her heart. Duanyue knew that the little wolf's origin was unknown, and there were still many mysteries on his body that he refused to speak, which made people unbelievable. But Duanyue felt that it was really pitiful for him to come to Chang'an alone and helplessly, which made Duanyue ruthless.
She pouted, still struggling to refute. "Not all Uighurs are bad people, isn't it too unreasonable for you to kill a whole group of people with such a rod?"
"I'm not being unreasonable, you don't know how vicious the Uighurs are." Xu Xiachu's eyes revealed a sense of sadness. "I went to Yanzhou with the Hou Ye, but you don't know that all the people in the city, except for a few who fled, were slaughtered by the Uighurs. Then a big city has become an empty city. ”
recalled the scene in Yanzhou, which still made Xu Xia's heart palpitate and be unforgettable for a long time. The Uighurs dug numerous pits in the plains outside the city to bury the corpses. When Daliang's army found those corpse pits, even the tough men trembled in their hearts.
"Not really!" Duanyue suddenly became excited. She looked at Xu Xiachu with red eyes, very aggrieved. "If the Uighurs are all jackals, tigers and leopards, then my brother and I are also jackals, tigers and leopards!"
Saying that, she lowered her head silently, and these words of unknown meaning made Xu Xiachu puzzled. Duanyue took a deep breath, her tone trembling slightly. "My mother is a Uighur, she is the gentlest and best person I have ever met, she is not a bad person......"
Duanyue whispered the deepest secret in her heart, which made Xu Xiachu, who was standing on the side, stiffen in fright when she heard it, and suddenly didn't know what to say.
It never occurred to him that Duanyue and Ranfeng had half Uighur blood in their bodies. Xu Xiachu calmed down, forcibly suppressed the panic in her heart, and looked Duan Yuelai up and down with a serious face. These eyes, nose and mouth, without a trace of Uighur characteristics, and then think back to the appearance of the wind, no matter how you look at it, you can feel that it is a Han Chinese.
Duanyue raised her eyes, just met Xu Xiachu's cautious gaze, and glared at him. "What do you look at, don't you think it's right?"
"It's not...... I didn't mean that......" Xu Xiachu scratched her hair in embarrassment, pulled her mouth and smiled dryly, not knowing what to say.
Duanyue sighed, her mood very low. "Every time someone says how bad the Uighurs are, I feel like they're scolding me in a corner. It will be more or less uncomfortable in my heart. ”
"Aren't we talking about that little wolf, don't think too much......" Xu Xiachu looked at Duanyue at a loss, and only blamed herself for talking nonsense.
"It's up to you to investigate those two, you have to investigate the two of them." Duanyue put away her mood, suddenly raised her head, stared at Xu Xiachu's dark eyes and asked, Xu Xiachu agreed again and again.
