Chapter 19: Misunderstanding
As soon as grandma came, Mi'er was in a good mood, and she forgot about Lin Xi for a while. Every day, I take my grandmother to walk and stop in the courtyard, chatting with her, and the grandmother smiles at any time, as if she is a child in this world, and innocently obeys any arrangement of Mi'er. Naturally, Mitu was not very close to the old woman, but he respected the old woman, and after saying goodbye, he went to go about his own business. Mi Zheng and Zhen Yu carefully arranged to serve the old man who aged quickly, and told Mi Er to carefully help her grandmother walk around the house.
Mijia Restaurant is located in the center of the street, the main entrance of the restaurant is an ordinary market street, the left side is a small river, and a few willows flutter in the wind next to the river. There is an old stone bridge sandwiched on the river, and across the stone bridge is the street and alley of Mijia Restaurant. There are two exits to this house, one exit can be from the restaurant to guò, and the other exit is the main entrance of the house, in the direction of the right side of the restaurant.
Grandma Wang will always stay for a few days when she meets Mi'er, but because of the foreign people, she is afraid of doubts, so she does not dare to stay for a long time. Every time she said goodbye, Grandma Wang's expression was very different from when she first came, and she was reluctant to give up her inseparable feelings on her frowning brows, and she sat in the carriage again and held Mi Zheng and Mi'er's hands tightly, and soon her eyes were full of tears.
Grandma Wang couldn't hold back this time, and said, "Son, can't you go back with me?" ”
Mi Zheng had already seen his mother's affection in his eyes, but he still comforted as always: "Mother, when you come to this step, you can't turn back lightly." If I go back, it will be a burden to the imperial brother Qin Mojun, can he feel at ease when he sees me go back? There won't be any thoughts or movements? And how can the ministers who supported me in the past not be angry, how can they stop the indignation that I fled without permission? ”
"But it's been so long, and you—" The old man couldn't help but interject.
"Mother, don't say it, what you mean is understood, please forgive the unfilial son for living up to your life's hopes. I'm so indifferent to fame and fortune, and I don't want to get involved in the rolling clouds of contention. Mi Zheng was still as determined as ever, and had no intention of returning to his state of mind.
Mi'er saw that the atmosphere was particularly gloomy and embarrassing, so she pretended to be happy and interjected: "Grandma, I grew up here, and I am reluctant to leave here, but I am also reluctant to grandma. In the future, if grandma is particularly concerned about us, remember to write a letter and send it, and I can go to Akagi to play immediately. That Akagi Palace is quite fun, but it's too big to get lost, I wonder if grandma will get lost? When the old man heard Mi'er say this, he still had a coquettish demeanor, and he couldn't help laughing, and everyone changed from a heavy atmosphere to a relaxed state.
The old man replied with a smile: "Grandma, it's not as playful as Mi'er, Grandma Akagi Palace is familiar with it, but she has never been lost."
"Grandma is just different, better than me." After speaking, he deliberately turned his head and sprinkled on his grandmother's shoulder. Seeing this, everyone looked at Mi Er in a conniving state, and the old man was in front of the car with the people of the Mi family to say goodbye, and after a while, the four-wheeled ape car with a wooden couch in a sedan shed slowly left with fine dust.
In the Xu Wenfang of the county government, there is luxury everywhere, and the maids in the room are also dressed gracefully.
A tall and thin spy dressed in black hurriedly walked into the county mansion, his skills were agile and his pace was fast, and he had already arrived in Xu Wenfang's room in the blink of an eye.
"Little master, there is something important to report below!"
As soon as Xu Wen heard this, he immediately summoned him into the screen in the room, and asked happily and anxiously what news the spies had found.
"Observing the Mi family for a few days, I found that a mysterious visitor came to the Mi family restaurant recently, and then lived in the Mi family courtyard for a few days before leaving, the Mi family received this guest very carefully, so I immediately came to report, I don't know what the son commanded?"
After hearing this, Xu Wen thought of the recent changes in Mitu, and presumably there must be something strange about this matter, so he immediately ordered the spy to send a few more assistants to hurry up and track down the mysterious visitor, and he needed to report it quickly as soon as there was news.
The black-clothed spy got the order, got up and left, and immediately disappeared into the county mansion.
As soon as the black-clothed spy left, another spy dressed in a civilian costume also came to Xu Wen's room, and whispered to Xu Wen behind the screen, and after a while of conversation and instructions, the man also left immediately and disappeared into the room.
As soon as the two left, only Xu Wen stayed in the room, turned around and walked to the couch in front of the screen and sat down, holding the coffee table on the table with a mysterious smile on his face. Then gently put the coffee table to his mouth, gently took a few sips of green tea, turned his face to the window, and looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window, his eyes revealed a deep sense of determination.
A few days later, in the Baishan Mansion of Egret Qin Yao Villa.
Bai Shan was standing in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, pacing back and forth thoughtfully, holding two jade walnuts in his hand all the time. In his heart, he thought about the news from outside, and he did not know where the source of the news was.
Mrs. Bai saw Bai Shan in the Huxin Pavilion from a distance in the courtyard, so she accelerated her pace to Bai Shan's side, and as soon as she approached, she said, "So you are here, let me look for it." ”
Only then did Bai Shan realize that his wife was already by his side, and turned around, "What's the matter?" ”
"What can you do, Miss Mi must have heard about it, right?" Madame Bai said without thinking.
"Well, I'm not thinking about it." Bai Shandao.
Mrs. Bai said urgently: "What else do you need to think about, I didn't expect that Miss Nami's style is so bad, and she doesn't know how to check, it's really insulting." If my poplar really marries her, where will you put your face in this dignified prefect! After Madame Bai finished speaking, there was a slight dissatisfaction on her face.
Bai Shan said slowly: "But I have a friendship with Nami Zhengzhi, and I am really embarrassed" After speaking, his face was sad, and his eyes turned to the fish in the lake, only to see a group of golden fish swimming very happily in the water.
"I understand your concerns, but we would never have imagined that Miss Nami would be so shameless, and she would not do anything with the men of the Lin family, no wonder the world was scolded. I heard that he is still crazy and looks extremely ugly, so wouldn't this hurt my poplars? Madame Bai had already made up her mind that she didn't want her precious son to marry such a woman.
"But we have already made a marriage promise with the Mi family, not to mention that we have been married fifteen years ago. Now I have changed my hexagram and broken the contract, I can't say it, it's in love, it's against my original intention. was rumored out, my dignified prefect did not keep his promise, and it was reasonable, and it still couldn't be justified. Bai Shan still didn't make up any idea, hesitating.
Mrs. Bai was a little anxious, and said, "This is not good, that is not good, is it really necessary to marry Miss Nami?" ”
As soon as Bai Shan heard this, he suddenly thought about it and said, "There is a way, I have an idea for your reminder." That's right, it's true that I want to marry Miss Nami. ”
When Madame Bai heard this, she couldn't help but be indifferent, surprised, and said in disbelief: "What did you say!? You...... You're not going crazy, are you? How can you do to your own son! The voice of the speaker was aggrieved and infarcted.
Seeing this, Bai Shan stroked his beard and smiled: "Madam, don't worry, you listen to me explain slowly." Approaching Mrs. Bai, I shook her hand, comforted her first, and said, "What I mean is to marry Miss Mi Jia first, as for how to deal with it, I have my own arrangements." After marrying, I directly placed Miss Mi in the side room and handled it in the concubine room. Poplar can also marry another wife, and then treat the Miss Mi family as an idle thing, so that I don't have to break the contract, isn't it the best of both worlds? ”
Mrs. Bai listened to Bai Shan's explanation, lowered her head and thought about it a few times, it seemed that there was no better idea than this, so she agreed with what Bai Shan said, and the two finally reached an agreement, and after some discussion, they left the Huxin Pavilion, and several maids around them also left.
A few days later, a maid in the Bai Mansion of Qin Yao Villa came out of the mansion cautiously, and after whispering to a young manservant outside the mansion, he looked around to make sure that there was no one around before returning to the mansion.
In the quiet Qin Yao Villa, outside the door of a courtyard house, two male servants were standing, looking intently at the middle of the courtyard.
In the courtyard, there is a man dressed in a white robe, holding a Qingyun sword, the handle of the sword is an emerald blue bird head, and there is an oval hollow in the middle of the handle, and the hollow can be inlaid with a round object of pearl volume. The sword is a copper-colored long saber, the shape is peculiar, the color is very bright, it is difficult to know at first glance that this sword has been many years old.
Suddenly, the man in white had already held the hilt of his sword and swung it on the willow branches in the courtyard, and the leaves fell in an instant, the hurricane stood up, and turned into a white shadow in the air for a while, and the sword light and sword shadow made people dazzled.
I saw that the manservant kept shouting at that skill, and was amazed. When the man in white saw someone clapping his hands and shouting, he immediately stopped swinging his sword and descended from the sky. The breeze was blowing, the white clothes were fluttering, the green silk was floating on the head, and the hearty handsome face showed a calm and calm, extremely stable look. It turned out that the man in white was Poplar, and the manservant was amazed, and one of the manservants approached Poplar and motioned to help Poplar with his sword, and Poplar waved his hand lightly, and the sword was already out of his hand. The manservant immediately took the sword, and immediately sank a lot downward, and with great difficulty he held the heavy sword, and followed the poplar to the room.
Bai Yang walked into the house, because he was sweating a little when he swung his sword, so he unbuttoned his clothes, took off his white coat and put it on the bed, and was sitting on the edge of the couch, when he looked up and asked the manservant: "Steward Hu, tell me now what you want to tell me." ”
