CHAPTER XXXVII

After Mo Shu'an and Mo Junting left, Hu went back to his home, and took the initiative to meet Mr. Hu for the first time, and Mr. Hu now handed over all the things in the house to his son, he liked to raise flowers and fish, and he didn't feel strange when he saw his daughter, but said, "Sit down and drink some tea and rest." ”

"Father." Hu Shi sat opposite Old Man Hu according to his words, and did not let Yahuan do anything, Hu Shi himself filled Old Man Hu's cup with eight points full of tea, poured himself another cup, and then asked, "Sister An's ......"

Old Man Hu interrupted Hu's words with a wave of his hand, and said, "Drink saliva first." ”

Hu Shi could only take a sip from the cup, the bitter taste spread, and when the tea was swallowed, there was a hint of sweetness, and the old man Hu said, "How does it taste?" ”

"It's peculiar." Hu said.

Old Man Hu took a sip, "This is a wild tea plant in the mountains, and now it is raised in the tea garden, if you are used to drinking it, you will also have some to give you in the future." ”

Hu Shi lowered his eyes slightly and said, "This tea is bitter first and then sweet, because the bitter is unbearable, and the sweet is more precious, but mothers hope that their children will not have to taste the bitterness for the rest of their lives, even if the sweet one has been bland." ”

Old Man Hu sighed and said, "Do you blame me?" ”

"Blame." Hu Shi did not hide it, but said bluntly, "I don't blame it later, after all, it was the path I chose, and you asked me." ”

The Hu family is indeed strange and even hated, that is, when she was pushed by Mo Zhiteng and Mo Jingying, and gave birth to Mo Junting and Mo Shu'an in advance, when she knew that Mo Shu'an almost couldn't survive several times because of her premature birth, she hated it.

Old Man Hu didn't speak for a long time, and Hu said, "Father, because I chose the path myself, I can bear it no matter what the outcome is, but what about Sister An?" How could she ever have a choice? There are some hardships and dangers that should not be borne by one of her children. ”

"Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun'en." Old Man Hu put down the teacup, leaned back in the chair, and didn't look at Hu, but sighed, "If it is...... Hurry up and set up a family affair for Sister An, and I will go and talk to Hu Peng. ”

If it was, Old Man Hu didn't finish speaking, Hu still wanted to ask again, so he saw Old Man Hu wave his hand, closed his eyes, and obviously didn't want to say more.

Hu knew that this was what Old Man Hu meant to let her leave, but she was unwilling to give up, "Father, what is it?" Will there be danger in the palace this time? ”

Old Man Hu seemed to be asleep, but Hu refused to give up, just sat opposite Old Man Hu and looked at him, when Hu Xiaocheng arrived, he saw his father and sister confronting each other, and sighed in his heart and said, "Father, sister." ”

Hu's eyes were red, she hadn't slept all night, and she was even more uneasy at this time.

Hu Xiaocheng felt sorry for his sister, but he also knew that his father was the most stubborn, and if he really didn't want to say it, no one could ask, so he persuaded, "Sister, I'll talk to my father, you go back and rest first." ”

Hu Shi closed his eyes, only felt full of sourness, finally nodded, got up and saluted, and then took Liu's mother's hand and left.

Hu Xiaocheng personally sent people to the gate of the courtyard, watched Hu leave, and then came back and said, "Father, what the hell is going on?" ”

After Hu left, Old Man Hu also opened his eyes, his expression was tired, and he said, "If this time ...... Sister An can't get out of the palace, so send your sister away. ”

"Father, so strict?" Hu Xiaocheng's face changed greatly, he just felt strange, but listening to Old Man Hu's meaning, this trip to Mo Shu'an's palace was afraid that it would be extremely dangerous.

Old Man Hu didn't tell the Hu family just now, in fact, it was for the good of the Hu family, just like he said that the thunder, rain and dew are all Jun'en, even if you know and see it through, what can you do? They can't do anything, they can't stop it, "It can be said that it is dangerous, or it can be said that it is not dangerous, it all depends on Sister An's own response." ”

"My father told me that it would be good for me to ask my sister to remind Sister An." Hu Xiaocheng said a little anxiously.

Old Man Hu smiled and said, "You didn't see it when you were your sister?" You didn't even see it when Sister An and Brother Ting? It's you who really don't see it. ”

Hu Xiaocheng was full of doubts, and Old Man Hu said, "Your sister didn't force me to have an answer just now, but forced me to give a promise, some words must not come out of your mouth, even if it is something that everyone knows, you know?" ”

"Father." Hu Xiaocheng's heart jumped violently, "You just sue me, this time the concubine suddenly summoned Sister An and a few of them into the palace to talk, is it to choose a concubine for the five princes?" ”

Old Man Hu sighed slowly and did not speak.

Hu Xiaocheng then asked, "If you just choose a concubine for the five princes, the worst is that Sister An is chosen to marry the five princes, even if the five princes can't speak, my father and sister won't be like this." ”

Old Man Hu said, "Don't ask about this matter, it's better not to know some things, if you have the heart, arrange for someone to go to the Lin family to guard some, and when the person who can be the master of the Lin family comes back, tell your sister immediately." ”

Hu Xiaocheng had a faint guess in his heart, and asked directly, "Is it that the concubine wants to take Sister An and the four of them ......?"

"Let's go down." Old Man Hu interrupted Hu Xiaocheng's words.

Hu Xiaocheng's face changed.

Old Man Hu looked at his son and said, "Although Sister An calls you uncle, she is your sister's daughter, but in the final analysis, she is a girl from the Mo family, and there is no such thing as trapping our family for a Mo girl, we have already done everything we can do, but we can't contaminate more, understand?" ”

Hu Xiaocheng did not speak.

Old Man Hu sighed, "Why don't you understand things that your sister can understand?" Your sister has not spoken, precisely because she doesn't know how to speak, your sister is willing to die for her children, but she can't and dare not speak, let Hu Fu also pay in, you ...... Even if it is Sister Yuan today, Hu Fu can't make the slightest move. ”

Sister Yuan is Hu Yuan, Hu Xiaocheng's only daughter.

Hu Xiaocheng understood that what his father said was right, and said in a low voice, "I know." ”

Old man Hu waved his hand, Hu Xiaocheng left after saluting, hesitated for a while before going to Hu's yard, Hu did not enter the house, but stood in the yard, Hu Xiaocheng called his sister, but didn't know what to say, Hu said, "Sister An is the smartest, and she will be fine." ”

"Yes." Hu Xiaocheng thought of what he said to Mo Shu'an at the beginning, Huiji will be hurt and his love will not live, and he is really a little glad of Mo Shu'an's Huiji at this time.

Hu said, "I'm going to live with Brother Ting these days. ”

Hu Xiaocheng responded, "I will arrange for someone to go to the Lin family to keep an eye on it, and as soon as Lin Qingyang comes back, I will settle the matter between him and Sister An." ”

"Yes."

Mo Shu'an has had a good time in Mofu these days, and she is even more comfortable than in the past ten years, she just regards herself as a guest of Mofu at this time.

Mo Junting would come to visit Mo Shu'an every day, send some pastries made by the Hu family, and then tell Mo Shu'an about the news he heard, even if he made more preparations, Mo Junting felt that the time was too short, and when he really sent Mo Shu'an into the palace, the whole person was silent.

When he entered the palace, because he was only allowed to bring a maid ring, Mo Shu'an brought Dongqing.

Although Mo Shu'an went out from the Mo family, she was still in the carriage prepared by Mo Junting, and the Hu family did not show up in the carriage, looking at Mo Shu'an and whispering, "See less, move less and talk less in the palace, you know?" ”

"Mother rest assured." Mo Shu'an held Hu's hand and said, "I understand." ”

Hu Shi helped Mo Shu'an straighten her hair and said, "Your brother and I are waiting for you at the gate of the palace." ”

Mo Shu'an pursed her lips and smiled, "Mother and brother will go home first, and they will come to pick me up later, and I will also let Qiushi pack up his things, and when the time comes, we will go home together, and my mother can stay for a few more days." ”

"Okay." Where did the Hu family not agree.

The carriage did not approach the palace gate, it stopped at a distance from the palace gate, Hu touched Mo Shu'an's face, didn't say anything more, Mo Shu'an's eyes showed a smile, waved his hand, and then Mo Junting helped him get out of the carriage, Mo Junting didn't say anything, just patted Mo Shu'an's shoulder, Mo Zhiteng also came today, and came over at this time and said, "The Zheng family and the Chen family's carriage are also outside, I'll take Sister An over." ”

"Trouble cousin." Mo Junting spoke.

Mo Zhiteng said, "It's all my own family. ”

Mo Junting didn't say anything more, Mo Shu'an smiled at Mo Junting, looked at the carriage again, and walked towards the palace gate with Dong Qing and Mo Zhiteng.

As soon as I saw Mo Zhiteng and Mo Shu'an, the little eunuch greeted him, Mo Zhiteng stuffed a purse to the little eunuch, and the little eunuch naturally accepted it, Mo Shu'an listened to the communication between Mo Zhiteng and the little eunuch, it was all useless empty words, after Mo Zhiteng finished speaking, he asked Duoduo to take care of Mo Shu'an, and consciously completed the task, and said, "My sister will follow the prince in a while, because they are all female dependents, I won't go." ”

Mo Shu'an said, "Thank you, big brother." ”

Mo Zhiteng said, "It's okay. After that, he left.

The little eunuch said, "Miss Mo, please, the girls of the Zheng family and the girls of the Chen family are already waiting." ”

Dong Qing opened his mouth and said, "It's troublesome father-in-law." ”

The little eunuch smiled and led Mo Shu'an's master and servant inside.

The girls of the Zheng family and the girls of the Chen family looked to be fourteen or fifteen years old, their looks were extremely beautiful, and they looked a little delicate, and they smiled when they called Mo Shu'an, but it was not easy for a few people to communicate in such a place, and when the girls of the Zhou family arrived, the four of them were taken to the palace by a eunuch of an older grade.

Because the road is a little far, a small sedan chair was prepared, when Mo Shu'an was helped into the sedan chair, I could feel that the girls of the Zhou family breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they were also afraid to let them walk in, tired to the second, but they were all dressed up, in case of sweat or wrinkles, it would be inappropriate.

Mo Shu'an lowered his eyes slightly, the Zhou family, the Zheng family and the Chen family...... They didn't know anything, did they just think that they were choosing a concubine for the five princesses? Or is there someone in the family who knows about it, so what about them? Mo Shu'an never felt that she was the only one who was smart in this world, and others could think of it, but different people made different choices.
