Chapter 44: Hou Mansion
Lu Ming's sister and brother are both relatively honest No. 1 people.
Listen to Chen Wen say this.
I was a little panicked.
"Since my lord said so, sister, you better lie down first. Lu Ming said.
"Thank you, sir. ”
The girl nodded.
"I'm really sorry, my lord, I didn't tell you ......about my sister before I came," Lu Ming said with an embarrassed face.
Chen Wen shook his head: "Your sister is so sick, it should have been many years, right?"
"En!" Lu Ming nodded: "It's been four or five years." ”
"Didn't you find a doctor to treat you well?" Chen Wen asked with a frown.
"How can there be silver...... Lu Ming smiled embarrassedly: "Since my father and mother died, because of my sister's illness, almost everything that can be sold at home has been sold, and I have been abducted and deceived outside, so I can barely maintain her condition." ”
The most expensive thing in this world is all kinds of herbs.
After many people get sick, they can only wait for death, and they can't afford to see a doctor at all.
"Forget it, good people do it to the end, you take these factors to your sister's treatment. Chen Wen hesitated for a while, and then took out five hundred taels of silver tickets from his pocket: "It should be enough, right?"
"This ......"
Seeing the silver ticket, Lu Ming was stunned for a moment.
"My lord, this silver. ”
Chen Wen waved his hand: "If you give it to you, you will take it, for me, it's just a little money." ”
Although Lu Ming has lived a difficult life, he has been crawling in Gongsun City all these years, and he can be regarded as having seen the world.
knows that for big people, five hundred taels is indeed nothing.
"Thank you, my lord, this money is borrowed from you, and I will definitely pay it back to you in the future. Lu Ming said with a look of surprise.
Chen Wen looked at the silver ticket in Lu Ming's hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
That's half of my belongings.
"I can't imagine that you guy, you still have such a good heart?"
Ao Jing's voice suddenly sounded in his head.
"The guy who doesn't want to spend money on the door of the hotel actually gave a little beggar five hundred taels of silver, what are you thinking about in your head for a day?"
Chen Wen rolled his eyes: "You know a fart." ”
"Hey, what kind of tone are you, I'm the seventh princess of the East China Sea Dragon Clan, you give me a little politeness. ”
Polite?
You're welcome.
"The dignified Seventh Princess, you are still looking for the spirit stone I wanted, you are embarrassed to say!"
"I, isn't this a special situation!" Ao Jing heard Chen Wen mention the matter of the spirit stone, and suddenly his arrogance became three points shorter.
Chen Wen smiled and didn't continue to talk to Ao Jing.
As for the five hundred taels of silver, if it is used to live in a restaurant, Chen Wen is naturally unwilling.
But if it is used to help a pair of poor sisters and brothers, Chen Wen will not feel distressed.
......
It's late at night.
But the lights in the Hou Mansion still haven't been extinguished.
Groups of maids, grandmothers, go in and out of a courtyard.
This is where Zhao Qingqing settled.
Although Zhao Qingqing is married to Hou Ye's nephew.
But that nephew is deeply loved by the Hou Ye.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to bother Miao Qi to personally bring people out of the city to greet him.
The whole courtyard is full of red lanterns, and it is festive.
"This Zhao Qingqing, who is really lucky, was taken by the young master by chance, and even married her as the main house. ”
"Isn't it, ordinary people, how can they have such luck. ”
A group of maids muttered in a low voice, not to mention how envious they were for Zhao Qingqing.
Generally speaking, the princesses of small countries marry into a wealthy family like the Hou Mansion as concubines.
In the eyes of these maids, it is already good to be a concubine for the young master, let alone a wife.
"Don't talk crookedly there, and if others hear you, they will pull out the root of your tongue. ”
Suddenly, a woman's voice rang out.
I saw a woman who looked to be fifty or sixty years old, glaring at the maids with a fierce face.
"Mama Chen!"
When they saw the woman, the maids hurriedly saluted.
This Mama Chen is a celebrity next to Madame.
"Humph!"
Mama Chen snorted coldly, and then swaggered towards the courtyard.
On the stone table in the courtyard, Miao Qi held a teacup in his hand and glanced at Mama Chen.
"Steward Miao!" Seeing Miao Qi and Mama Chen's majesty, she immediately dispersed, with a flattering smile on her face: "I followed Madame's instructions and came here to check the young lady's body." ”
"En!" Miao Qi nodded slightly: "Go ahead, finish your errand early, and go back to rest." ”
"Yes!"
Mama Chen nodded and walked into the house.
Zhao Qingqing sat in front of the bronze mirror with a smile on her face.
She has changed into a wedding dress.
For this wedding, the Hou Mansion has been preparing for a long time.
The people of the entire Gongsun City are even more aware of the news that Hou Ye's nephew is about to get married.
Time is tight, otherwise, Mama Chen would not have been able to come in the middle of the night.
"The old woman has seen the young lady!" Mama Chen bowed slightly: "On the order of the young lady, I came to check the young lady's body, it's not that I don't believe the young lady, it's just that the rules are like this, and I ask the young lady to be considerate." ”
"Let's get started. ”
Zhao Qingqing said lightly.
......
After a stick of incense.
The door opened.
Mama Chen walked quickly to Miao Qi's side.
"When that's done, let's go back. Miao Qi didn't even look back.
"Steward Miao, it's not good...... Mama Chen put her mouth to Miao Qi's ear: "Zhao, Zhao Qingqing, not a virgin......"
Syllable!
There was a crunch.
The teacup in Miao Qi's hand fell to the ground.
After being stunned, Miao Qi took a deep breath: "What did you say?"
"Zhao Qingqing, it's no longer innocent...... Mama Chen said with a bitter face.
Miao Qi's face changed drastically.
"Has Master Hou rested?"
"Not ...... yet," Mama Chen shook her head.
As the person next to her wife, she naturally knows whether the Hou Ye has returned to the room.
"I should still be in the study to handle official business. ”
"Don't talk about it everywhere. ”
After explaining, Miao Qi hurried to the study.
"Master Hou, Miao Qi asks to see. ”
"Come in. ”
Step into the house.
A middle-aged man stared intently at the book in his hand.
The man has long hair, a brocade dress, and between his eyebrows, he has a domineering spirit that is not angry and self-threatening.
This person is Gongsun Houye, Gongsun Nan.
"You're not waiting at the young lady's side, what are you doing here?"
Glancing at Miao Qi, Gongsun Nan withdrew his gaze.
"Master Hou, something happened, young lady...... Not a virgin. The corners of Miao Qi's mouth twitched, and he lowered his head and said.
Hearing this, Gongsun Nan was stunned: "If I'm not mistaken, I sent someone to Zhao Guo before to have a physical examination, right?"
"Yes!" Miao Qi nodded.
"Got it!" Gongsun Nan nodded, and then continued to look at the book in his hand.
"Master Hou, now, what should I do?" Miao Qi asked.
"What should I do, just what, the news that my Gongsun Mansion is about to welcome my relatives has been released, is it possible to shake out this scandal?" Gongsun Nan asked rhetorically.
"Yes!"
Miao Qi nodded.
For large families, face is particularly important.
"Who else knows about this?"
"In addition to me, there is also Mama Chen who knows. Miao Qi thought for a moment and replied.
"Mama Chen has also worked hard in the house for a lot of time, let her have a good rest. Gongsun Nan said lightly.
Miao Qi was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "But, Madame's side." ”
"I say it. Gongsun Nan said directly.
"Yes!"
