CHAPTER XXVIII

Mo Junting didn't ask in front of Hu's face, chatted about some other things and went back to the room to freshen up first, although he and Mo Shu'an are siblings, but they are older so they don't live in a courtyard, although Mo Junting came back suddenly, but the yard has already been cleaned up, Liu's mother will also let Yahuan take the futon out to dry when the sun is good, after Mo Junting comes back, he can rest after cleaning up a little.

Mo Shu'an accompanied Hu to chat in the house, and when Mo Junting finished grooming and the meal was ready, after the three of them had eaten, Hu sent Mo Junting and Mo Shu'an to chat, the good relationship between the brother and sister is what Hu is most willing to see, after all, men and women are different, Mo Shu'an can't count on her father, and Hu Xiaocheng ...... It's okay that I'm here, but if I'm gone, Mo Shu'an and this uncle will also be separated by a layer, and the mother's family that can be relied on will be Mo Junting.

The weather in the suburbs is not as hot as in Beijing, and you don't feel hot when you don't use ice at night, Mo Shu'an didn't let Yahuan serve tea, but just let Yahuan serve warm water, Mo Junting asked the people who were waiting in the study to retreat, and then asked, "What happened in Puyang Temple?" ”

Mo Shu'an didn't panic, just poured a glass of water for Mo Junting, "Why does my brother ask like this?" ”

"Isn't it wrong to die in the mystery?" Seeing Mo Shu'an like this, Mo Junting was a little more certain in his heart and asked directly.

Mo Shu'an put down the teapot and calmly looked at Mo Junting, his eyes bright and soft.

Mo Junting was shocked in his heart and said, "It's a very strict matter? Can't even my mother and I talk? ”

Mo Shu'an bit his lower lip, "It's not easy to say. ”

Mo Junting looked at Mo Shu'an's appearance, and asked tentatively for a long time, "There are the Zhang family, the five princes and the five princesses in the temple, it can't be the Zhang family that can make you so taboo, and it's just a beating of Zhang Sanlang, you won't be like this, that is, you have something to do with the five princes?" The Death ...... of Xuan Dialect"

Mo Shu'an took a deep breath and slowly spit it out, "I didn't want to hide it from my mother, but that thing...... It's really a little hard to say, and my mother doesn't know it well, I took two maids with me that day...... "Mo Shu'an didn't hide it anymore, this kind of thing is also a bit heavy for Mo Shu'an, and she also wants someone to share it with, but she can't tell her mother."

Mo Junting took a breath of cold air, and it wasn't until Mo Shu'an finished speaking that he asked, "This matter really can't be told to Mother." "There is no other purpose than to make my mother frightened in vain.

Mo Shu'an nodded, and Mo Junting took the cup and drank the cold water one by one before saying, "Is it Xia Guo and Dong Qing?" ”

"Brother." Mo Shu'an looked at Mo Junting and shook his head and said, "The two of them know what to say and what not to say. ”

Mo Junting and Mo Shu'an looked at each other for a long time, and then nodded in compromise, "I know, but Xia Guo can't get married." ”

"After all, I was the one who involved them." Mo Shuan said.

Mo Junting said, "You are my sister, aren't they, understand?" ”

Mo Shuan's eyes flashed and said, "I see." ”

Mo Junting sighed and said, "Dong Qing has no plans to go out, and Xia Guo ...... I'll arrange it. ”

"No, I don't." Mo Shu'an understood that Mo Junting was asking her to put those two people under her nose, in fact, this was not only for Mo Shu'an's safety, but also for Xia Guo's good, but Mo Shu'an always knew that Xia Guo wanted to go out, and it was inevitable that she would be a little uncomfortable, "Brother, I will arrange it." ”

Mo Junting looked at his sister's appearance, thinking that when he was young, he practiced martial arts in the yard, and his sister was lying by the window and looking at him like this, always looking quiet, at that time he thought that the girl's personality was like this, but now he understands that where can a child be quiet, and his sister's temperament is just because of her poor health, she was forced to be quiet, "I will go and talk to Xia Guo's family, if I want, when things fade in a few years, let Xia Guo redeem himself and leave the house, and give their family some silver when the time comes, It's okay to keep them away from the capital. ”

Mo Shu'an smiled when he heard this, and said, "Yes." ”

Mo Junting looked at Mo Shu'an's appearance and knocked her on the forehead, "I promised so quickly, I think you planned to do this, but you just wanted me to be a coolie for you." ”

Mo Shu'an covered his forehead and smiled, and then said with a straight face, "Brother, do you say that Xuan Wei's death has anything to do with the five princes?" ”

"I can't say." Mo Junting pondered for a moment and said, "According to what you see, that kid ...... If the five princes didn't notice it in the slightest, I don't think it's likely. "After all, they are husband and wife, it is impossible for the five princes not to notice anything abnormal, the most important point is that the five princesses are like this to the five princes outside, so what about the prince's mansion?

Mo Junting said, "There are three possibilities, the first is that the five princes didn't notice it, so Xuan Bian's death is really an accident, I don't think it's very likely, after all, Puyang Temple's attitude is also very strange, the second possibility is that the five princes just noticed it, so Xuan Wei died, and the third is that the five princes have always known, but because the concubine or other reasons have been enduring, Xuan Wei's death has something to do with the five princes." ”

Mo Shu'an asked, "The fifth princess is the niece of the concubine, and now the concubine is ...... Xuan Wei's death, doesn't my brother think the reaction of the court is a little strange? Even if it wasn't a metaphysical debate, a different person, and a master who had entered the palace to preach in a place like Puyang Temple suddenly went to the water and died, it was impossible to close the case so quickly. What's more, this person and the five princesses...... Will the five princesses be willing? ”

Mo Junting frowned and said nothing.

Mo Shu'an laughed, "Anyway, this has nothing to do with us. ”

Mo Junting was stunned for a moment and then reacted and smiled, "Yes, our speculation here is just asking for trouble." ”

Mo Shu'an suddenly asked, "Brother, is there really no one to mention to you?" ”

Mo Junting asked rhetorically, "Why do you ask like that?" ”

"I think Mr. Liu's attitude towards you is a little strange." Mo Shu'an said with a smile, "During this time, Mr. Liu left you in the academy, thinking that it was more to enlighten you, even I know that it is very difficult for the Chongwen Academy in Jinling to get in, not to mention that it will let you study in this way, and it also means to let you relax, Mr. Liu originally valued you, but now he is even more thoughtful, don't you have any other ideas?" ”

Mo Junting shook his head helplessly when he heard this, and said, "As far as you are smart, in fact...... Mr. Liu mentioned that he and Mrs. Liu had a daughter, but I refused. ”

"Huh?" Mo Shu'an looked at Mo Junting with some surprise, "The character of Mr. Liu and his wife, the girl who taught him should not be bad, why did my brother refuse?" ”

Mo Junting leaned back in the chair, slowly exhaled a breath and said, "It's not that she's bad, if you really want to marry a wife, whether it's from the family or the future, Mr. Liu's daughter is the best choice, it's just ......" Mo Junting's eyes were a little dazed, "It's just that I don't know if I can be good to her." ”

Mo Shu'an looked at Mo Junting puzzled.

Mo Junting said, "The most important thing in my heart is my mother and you, if I marry a wife, if something happens, it may ...... No, it will be unfair to you to sacrifice your wife's interests, so I thought, only when my mother and you have a new home, I can be sure that you are happy, and you have a new dependence, can I marry a wife. ”

Mo Shu'an's eyes were red, and he only felt sour and astringent in his heart, "Could it be that when I get married, my brother will ignore me?" ”

"No, it won't." Mo Junting said seriously, "You know I don't mean that, and this is my choice, and it has nothing to do with anyone." ”

Mo Shu'an pursed his lips and laughed, but tears fell, "My brother is worried too much, my mother and I are not such embarrassing people, even if my brother marries a wife, can't the three of us get along well?" Do you help each other? ”

Mo Junting explained, "I know your temperament, it's just that I can't pass that level in my heart, I can't afford to gamble on that eventuality, because you are all too important." ”

Mo Shu'an wiped away his tears with a handkerchief and said, "You won't tell Mr. Liu like this, will you?" ”

"Yes." Mo Junting said, "I don't want to lie to Mr. Liu. ”

Mo Shu'an was relieved a lot, so things were not without room for change, and from Mo Junting's words, Mo Shu'an also felt that Mo Junting was not unintentional about Mr. Liu's daughter, and Mo Junting's words may have made Mr. Liu and his wife more determined, because Mo Junting is a very responsible person.

Mo Junting didn't want to mention this matter more, so he said, "Since you agreed, I will send a letter to my classmates tomorrow, ask a few people to come together to relax, and then find a chance for you to meet." ”

Mo Shu'an nodded and didn't say anything more.

Mo Junting said, "Don't be afraid, if you really don't like it, my brother will support you for a lifetime." ”

Mo Shu'an laughed at this time, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and his eyes were bright and warm, "I listen to my brother." ”

Hu and Mo Junting were particularly concerned about Mo Shu'an's affairs, and Mo Junting wrote a few letters directly when he went back at night, and selected four classmates who had a good relationship and had nothing to do to get together, which could not only hide the true purpose, but also allow his sister to observe that person's character from their conversations.

The next day, he said to Hu and asked people to send the letter out, Hu knew that whether this family business was successful or not, these people were his son's friends, so he specially asked people to buy good wine, personally drew up dishes and snacks, and asked people to clean up the yard...... Unspeakably flustered.

When Mo Junting and his friends got together, Mo Shu'an got up early in the morning, and the maids waited for Mo Shu'an to dress up, and Hu Shi also came over to take a closer look, "Use that jasper hairpin, don't twist the silk bracelet, use that pair of jasper bracelets." In fact, even if they want to meet, it is through the screen, Mo Shu'an felt that his mother was actually a little too much, but he couldn't bear to say anything, just sat in front of the dresser obediently, and let Hu Shi pick it and replace it with a more suitable one, and when Hu Shi felt satisfied, he got up and took Hu Shi's arm and ate together.

Hu was afraid that his daughter would be flustered, so he comforted, "Mother will always be with you, and when the time comes, if you don't want to speak, you don't have to speak, just hand it over to your mother." ”

Mo Shuan smiled and responded.

Hu Shi said, "Thirty old Ming Jing, fifty young jinshi, although he didn't win the promotion this time, but Brother Ting also said that he has real talent and learning, and Mr. Liu also values it, so don't worry." ”

"I'm not worried." Mo Shu'an said, "Mother rest assured. ”
