Chapter 83
The next day, Murong Haoran went to Qishizhai. This time, he waited patiently for his fellow's message.
When Shen Mo came out, Murong Haoran stood with his hands in his hands, facing the wall, motionless, as if he was thinking about it facing the wall.
Seeing this, Shen Mo's eyebrows moved slightly, and he walked more steadily step by step.
Listening to the footsteps approaching behind him, and feeling that the person who came was already standing behind him, Murong Haoran sighed and turned around, "Shen Xiaomo." The voice was deep and powerful.
Seeing Murong Haoran's face full of guilt, Shen Mo suddenly laughed, extremely fast, and Murong Haoran thought it was his own illusion. Immediately, Shen Mo reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Miss Liang doesn't look down on me, it's because I'm not good enough." What does it have to do with you? ”
Hearing Shen Mo say this, Murong Haoran began to be indignant for him, "...... Originally, I thought this cousin was very reasonable...... But do you know what she said......"
Hearing Murong Haoran relay Liang Jingsheng's words, a trace of surprise flashed on Shen Mo's face, "It turns out that it's not just good-looking?" But he said, "Miss Liang said that?" It's me Meng Lang. ”
"Do you think she's right? You...... You're stunned by her. As he spoke, Murong Haoran pointed at Shen Mo's index finger and trembled, with an unteachable expression on his face.
"I am a manly husband, I joined the army not to protect my family and defend the country, but for the love of my children, and I should really be ashamed. Miss Liang is right! ”
Originally, he wanted to make Shen Mo feel better, but Murong Haoran stood on Shen Mo's side very firmly, for this reason, he either sincerely or against his will said a lot of bad things about Liang Jingsheng, but at this time, Shen Mo didn't hold a grudge against Liang Jingsheng at all, and said good things about her, Murong Haoran felt embarrassed for a while. After standing with a stiff face for a long time, he barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "Hey, why are your shoulders so dirty?" As he spoke, he reached out to help Shen Mo pat.
Shen Mo quickly looked back at his shoulder, his face changed a few times in a very short period of time, and then he patted it pretending not to care, "It's okay, it may be the dust on the door frame." ”
"It's not that I said, you're too lenient with the guys in the shop. Even if you sleep when you're on duty, you don't know how to clean in this shop, so if you go on like this, how can your shop's business be good? ”
"It's okay, I don't expect to make much money with this, I just like it."
"Actually, it's good for you to live like this." Murong Haoran suddenly approached Shen Mo, "You can't be partial, next time you go out, take me out, right?" I've grown so big that I haven't seen the world yet! ”
"It's almost the New Year, and even if you want to go out, it's next year. Aren't you going to participate in the autumn festival next year? Uncle, aunt, can they let you out? ”
"Shen Xiaomo, you are so honest, how can you still have so many friends?"
After Murong Haoran said this, he looked at Shen Mo and smiled, but didn't say anything more. Liang Jingsheng's matter can be regarded as a temporary past.
Murong Mansion is so big, and there are still many mothers-in-law and maids in the mansion who have broken mouths, and the news of Shen Mo's intention to marry Liang Jingsheng soon spread to the second room.
Of course, the people in the second room didn't dare to discuss this matter in front of the two masters and young ladies, and they all said a few words when they were chatting behind their backs. Murong Liyan doesn't like to listen to these short gossip from parents, but her twin sister is the opposite of her, so she likes to let the maid inquire about these things, and then tell her about it. When she turned fifteen, she became even more violent, because she always felt that those people were speaking ill of them behind their sisters' backs, laughing at them for so long, and not having settled on their in-laws.
After the maid next to her said the news tremblingly, Murong Lixue began to throw around the house a little frantically.
After Murong Liyan, who came to inquire about it, slapped away a cup thrown by her sister with a fan in her hand, she shouted loudly: "What are you crazy all of a sudden? Don't you think our second room is messy enough? ”
"What's so good about her? He actually asked to marry her? Is it just because she's good-looking? As she spoke, Murong Lixue cried.
Although Murong Lixue's words were clueless, Murong Liyan understood what she meant. It's not the tacit understanding between the twins, but she has known the news for a long time, and obviously told the people under her head not to tell her sister, but she didn't expect her to know after all.
Among the three rooms in Murong Mansion, the one with the most poor status is their second room. Their father did not like literature and was not good at martial arts, so he loved to deal with silver, and when they went out, they could only be regarded as merchant girls. Among this merchant, the Shen family and the Bai family are the most suitable for them in the family world, she is interested in Bai Jinqi, who is destined to inherit his father's business and is destined to be blue, and her stupid sister who only values her appearance is Shen Mo, who will only lose. In her opinion, Shen Mo is almost useless except for being good-looking.
"Don't cry. What's the use of Shen Mo liking her, our cousin Jingsheng has a high eye, she can't look down on Shen Mo, and she dislikes him for being a merchant! ”
"Really?" Murong Lixue, who was originally crying, raised her head suddenly, except for her eyes being a little red, there were not many tears. Before Murong Liyan could answer, she continued, "Why doesn't she look down on Shen Mo? Who does she think she is? One of her mothers died early, and she was kicked out of the house by her father and could only go to her grandfather's family, do you still think that she is still an official lady? ”
"Silly girl, isn't it just right that she doesn't like it?" Murong Liyan patted her sister's hand and smiled meaningfully.
A few days later, Liang Jingsheng felt much better. At least I don't need to be helped to walk anymore. Just walked a few steps to a secluded place in the shade, and heard Mo Lan's voice, Liang Jingsheng was a little strange, didn't Mo Yu say that Mo Lan went out? Why did you come back so soon?
"They are too much, it's just nonsense, where is our young lady who is the one who climbs the dragon and attaches the phoenix? Besides, in this place of Yunzhou, can there be dragons and phoenixes for people to climb? ”
"Be quiet, don't be heard. The girl was already sick, and she was just getting better, what if she listened to these bad words and became angry again? ”
"I ...... I'm not angry! Which of them knows our young lady, how can they be so open-mouthed? If you don't look down on Shen Gongzi, you just climb the dragon and attach the phoenix, what kind of truth is this? ”
Liang Jingsheng stood in place for a while, and when he was tired of standing, he sat on the ground, and it was not until the end of their conversation that Liang Jingsheng spoke, "You two come over and help me." ”
As soon as these words came out, they really scared Mo Lan and Mo Ju. The two of them looked at her expressions as if they had seen a ghost in the daytime.
Liang Jingsheng smiled and stretched out her hand towards them, "What are you still doing?" My leg was numb. ”
called Mozhu and Moyu to their side together, and when they asked, they knew that this matter had almost reached the point where everyone knew about it, no wonder Mozhu and they took turns going out every day these days, she wondered, why did they suddenly have so many things to buy, it turned out that they were there to inquire about the news.
Seeing that Liang Jingsheng didn't speak, just looked at them, several people glanced at each other, and Mo Zhu stepped forward, "Girl, these are rumors, don't take it to heart." The rest of the people were afraid of saying too many mistakes, so they only nodded fiercely and echoed Mo Zhu's words.
Liang Jingsheng sighed and said a little helplessly, "Since you know that it is a rumor, why are you so active in going out to inquire?" Is this ready to listen to it all, make up a story to amuse me? ”
"Auntie...... Girl. ”
Liang Jingsheng suddenly sneered, and the expression on her face suddenly softened a lot, "A group of silly girls, the eldest cousin is rumored to have broken sleeves, and they are all fine." I'm just looking good, so I'm just high-eyed, what's there to be angry about? They're praising me. I should thank them, now that the whole Yunzhou knows that I am very good-looking, maybe it will not be long before there will really be that person who is attracted to the dragon, chapter and phoenix? When I marry into the high gate, I will have to give them a feast. ”
Liang Jingsheng said these words, most of them came from the bottom of her heart, especially the sentence 'thank you', she is really grateful to this person who spread rumors, she has such a reputation, for a while, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get married, and she is in love with her. Ever since the eldest aunt said that she was going to hold that banquet for her, she had been troubled, and the next time the eldest aunt found someone to ask her, what reasonable reasons should she use to refuse, this time, she finally didn't have to think of any excuses, it was good.
Outside Yunzhou City, two men dressed in ordinary clothes released a white dove after making sure that there was no one behind them. Seeing the white pigeon spread its wings and fly away, one person asked the other with a little trepidation, "Do you think it's too much of a fuss?" As he spoke, he gestured with his thumb and forefinger to see what he meant by 'a little bit'.
Another reached out and parted his thumb and forefinger and said, "What if this is a big deal?" Neither...... It's all our fault. We weren't the ones who lit the fire, we just added some firewood to the fire. Another group of people added dry firewood, let's add it, at most wet firewood! With that, the man turned and left.
"Wet wood in the fire?" Seeing his companion leaving, the man thought for a moment, lifted his heel, and then paused, "Hey, this is to wet the fire...... It chokes people before it helps the fire! ”
In the secret room of Qishizhai, Shen Mo kept fiddling with the tea leaves in the tea bowl with the tea lid, "Let you go and give some help, is this the result?" ”
The few people kneeling in front of him had beads of sweat on their foreheads, and they were also unjustly tight, obviously just spreading the news from Murong Mansion a little, and the news was all about how Liang Jingsheng was, but he didn't expect that this was spreading, and their young master would become useless, and they would only sit and eat empty empty and have a good look. It can only be said that this is too harmful to spread falsehood.
In the pigeon loft, Fu Zhao learned to call the pigeons 'coo' and 'coo', and after leading them all around, he fed them very generously.
In the distance, two soldiers who were in charge of raising carrier pigeons looked at each other, and both saw the sad faces on each other's faces. Where can this pigeon be fed like this? They were fed fat pigeons, they didn't fly high enough, and they were beaten down and stewed in soup, and their hard work was in vain. The more one person looked, the more anxious he became, and he wanted to rush out after taking a deep breath, but was quickly pulled by the other person, "What are you doing?" ”
"Can't be fed anymore."
"If he wants to feed, let him feed. What we can do now is to write down which pigeon has eaten more, and let them fly a few more times to eliminate food, and if not, we will starve them for a few meals, who will let them be greedy! ”
"Is that okay?"
"Or else? The last time you let them walk and eat, do you think they have lost weight? ”
"Ugh." If you are in a bad mood, you train them, and if you are in a good mood, you feed the pigeons. With such a peak, they are simply going crazy.
