Chapter 67: Run
After Rong Zheng left, Mu Xuan couldn't calm down.
He didn't even care about the dawn, and he didn't care about waiting for Cui Shangzhou to come. Hurriedly instructed Ping Kang: "You go and bring my horse." ”
Pingkang was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked, "It's so late, where is the uncle going?" ”
Mu Xuan didn't say a word, and only asked Pingkang to lead his horse quickly. Pingkang didn't know what was going on, and he didn't want to ask too much if he was going to the villa, so he was busy leading the horse. Mu Xuan didn't change his clothes, he went out of the back door, got on the horse and went in the direction of Lutang.
It was dark and the road was not clear, and the horses did not walk fast.
It is not particularly far from Puci Temple to Lutang, but he thinks about a lot of things on horseback. I also sincerely hope that Lei Bo is the son of the nurse Lei Mama he is looking for, but I don't know if her old man is still in the world now, or how much Mama Lei knows about the events of the past.
Although he was apprehensive in his heart, he did not hesitate to take this step.
When he finally arrived at Lutang, he inquired about several places, and finally found Lei Bo.
Mu Xuan had never seen him Lei Bo, and looked the kid in front of him up and down several times, Lei Bo was dark and thin, covered in gray coarse cloth clothes, looking a little poor and sour, and saw that he was born with thick eyebrows and thin eyes, a long face, and his appearance was somewhat similar to that of Mama Lei in front of him. Mu Xuan's heart was even more affirmative.
"I wonder what this uncle is looking for me?"
The lights in the house were dim, Mu Xuan was standing in the shadows again, Lei Bo didn't see it very really, but this person came to him on horseback so late, there must be something.
Mu Xuan asked, "Are you the Xingyang Lei Clan?" ”
Lei Bo couldn't guess the identity of the person in front of him, and said in his heart that his debt had been repaid by Miss Rong, how could anyone come to trouble him. Lei Bo nodded alarmedly.
Mu Xuan's face showed a faint smile, and she said happily: "Your mother worked as a nurse in Yuwangfu back then?" ”
Lei Bo was even more surprised, his heart turned out to be not for debts, but for his mother. He remembered his mother's teaching when he was a child, not allowing him to tell outsiders about it. So he shook his head and said, "No, no, uncle, you found the wrong person." ”
Mu Xuan's face was full of surprise, impossible. It is impossible to be wrong, just Lei Bo's appearance is somewhat similar to the original Lei Mama, how can he admit his mistake.
"I am your mother's milk back then, the uncle of the Mu family."
This time it was surprisingly replaced by Lei Bo. He looked at Mu Xuan with doubts, doubting Mu Xuan's words.
"I don't have any bad intentions, after the mother left, there were a lot of people who served in the house, and Mama Lei was also among them. I've been thinking about it all these years. So they also sent people to look for the old people. Mama Lei has a black mole on the back of her neck, which I still remember clearly, and I really want to meet her old man. After all these years, I don't know how her old man is doing. Mu Xuan was full of sincerity.
Lei Bo listened to his words, and then he was a little convinced, and asked, "Are you really Uncle Mu?" ”
Mu Xuan's solemn chin head.
Lei Bo confessed to Mu Xuan.
"Then I asked you at first, why don't you admit it and lie to me?"
Lei Bo's eyes sank, and he said, "Uncle Mu, don't be surprised, this is my mother's order." Don't let me talk to my sister about that year. Don't let us say that her old man used to be a nurse in the palace. ”
When Mu Xuan heard this, her brows frowned slightly, and she asked again after a while: "Why did Mama say that?" ”
Lei Bo shook his head and said, "I didn't ask her why she wanted to hide it. Seeing that she refused to mention it, we didn't want to ask more. ”
"Is she okay then?" Mu Xuan was really afraid to tell the news that Lei Mama was dead from Lei Bo's mouth, otherwise this line would be completely broken again.
Lei Bo said: "Thank you Uncle Mu for thinking about her, her old man is in good health." ”
"So where is she, I want to meet her!" Mu Xuan looked a little impatient.
Lei Bo pondered for a moment before saying, "She lives in Nanyang. ”
"Okay, you sue me, I'll have someone pick her up."
Lei Bo thought about it for a moment before nodding.
He didn't run this trip in vain, Mu Xuan couldn't help but snicker in his heart. He's been busy for so long. It's finally a bit of an eyebrow. He thought that as long as he saw Mama Lei, maybe everything could be solved smoothly. He can also know what happened at the beginning and solve the doubts in his heart. Maybe he didn't care about it anymore at that time. You can abandon a qiē and officially escape into the empty door.
When Mu Xuan went back, her mood was different from the apprehension when she came, but she was a little more calm and happy. But halfway through the horse, the horse was tripped over a stone on the road, Mu Xuan was shocked into a cold sweat, if he hadn't reacted in time and grabbed the reins, he would have fallen off the horse.
The next day. At the beginning of the day, he couldn't wait to ask Baokang to invite Cui Shangzhou to come over, and let Cui Shangzhou go to Nanyang immediately.
"Junhua, I didn't expect to hit us by mistake, but we really met it. It won't be long before your worries are solved. ”
Mu Xuan had a faint smile on his face, and he could see that he was very happy, and he said to Cui Shangzhou briskly: "I have to trouble you to run this matter in person, and I don't worry about handing it over to others." Besides, if you look at me, there is no one available. ”
Cui Shangzhou immediately promised: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring people to you smoothly." It's just that this is a temple after all, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to settle her. ”
Mu Xuan said: "You take her old man's house to the villa." ”
"That's fine. I'm going to go. ”
Mu Xuan thanked Cui Shangzhou.
Cui Shangzhou said: "What else do we say between us, thank you or not, you are willing to tell me to do things, it's too late for me to be happy." But what you should be most grateful for should be the young lady of the Rong family. If she hadn't accidentally saved the boy surnamed Lei, I'm afraid we wouldn't have any ideas at all. Last time, you scared the little girl so much, you should always make a good reparation. ”
"Yes, you're right, I should thank her properly."
Cui Shangzhou didn't stop too much and left for Nanyang.
The Rong family finished the afternoon's rituals and was going back. Mu Xuan never found a chance to say a few words to Rong Zheng alone, let alone express his gratitude to her.
Ping Kang could see that since the young lady of the Rong family left last night, Uncle He had been in a good mood, so taking advantage of Mu Xuan's good mood, he stepped forward and said with a smile: "Uncle, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, why don't we go to the villa to escape the heat." ”
"I haven't gotten to Futian to escape the heat."
Mu Xuan thought of something and suddenly asked Pingkang.
"What do you do if you say you want to apologize and thank someone?"
Ping Kang didn't know why, so he really thought about it seriously. He replied cautiously: "Maybe it's better to do what you want." ”
Do what you like? Although Mu Xuan had asked Cui Shangzhou to secretly observe her and pay attention to what she was doing. But he still didn't know anything about this woman, but he had only seen two or three faces. What kind of temperament is Rong Zheng and what are his preferences. I don't even know at all. How did he know what she liked?
Giving money? Gift to the Rouge of Pearl? Gift ancient books and paintings? He didn't have any idea at all. In fact, in life, except for his only sister, he has no contact with the women next to him at all. In the early years, when his mother had just left, he was fostered in the temple, and there were two maids by his side to serve, and later he was sent away with all the troubles. And in the temple. The people he came into contact with were just monks, how could he guess the mind of a little girl.
But Rong Zheng inadvertently helped him so much, he couldn't help but express it. And last time, he should always apologize to others.
Mu Xuan thought of his sister, so he said to Pingkang: "Let's go, let's go to the villa." ”
The lord of Duanhui County came back from Shanqing Cave to beat Jiao. Seeing that my brother is here, I am naturally happy.
"My sister went to the mountain cave, but are you still used to it?"
"If you want to talk about habits, you must still live comfortably at home. It's just to accompany the elderly. I haven't seen you for a few days, so why are you willing to come to me as soon as I come back? I just happened to bring their famous pickles, so you can try them. ”
"The pickles in our Puci Temple are not bad."
Although Mu Xuan said so. But Duanhui still asked the maid to fetch it and let Mu Xuan take it when she left.
"Sister, don't be in such a hurry, I will have to stay for two days before I go back this time."
Duan Hui liked it even more when he heard it, and said with his head bowed: "It should be so, you can live as long as you want." ”
Mu Xuan told Duanhui about finding Mama Lei. When Duan Hui heard this, he smiled and said, "You still think about the old people in the past, it's good to see them." Do you have any plans for her in the future? ”
This Mu Xuan really hadn't thought about it yet, he said a little dazedly: "Let's see her first." She has a son not far away, and I asked him what he thinks. ”
Duanhui agreed with his younger brother's approach, thinking that his younger brother still remembered these trivial matters in the red dust in his heart, which showed that his dust thoughts were not broken. I will not embark on the path of becoming a monk lightly, and my heart will be happy.
So much so that Mu Xuan said to her later: "Sister, do you think you can find an opportunity to invite the third lady of the Rong family to our villa as a guest?" ”
Duan Hui looked at Mu Xuan in great surprise, and said after a while: "The third lady of the Rong family? Who is it? ”
Mu Xuan smiled and said, "The third lady of the Rong family is the third miss of the Rong family." Because of something, thanks to her help, I want to thank her. She helped, I don't know how to thank her, I want to give her something but I don't even know what her preferences are, so I want to ask my sister for help. I invited her to be a guest here. ”
For the first time, Mu Xuan had a little interest in a woman, which made Duan Hui deeply surprised, and he also felt that it was a good sign. In other words, it is feasible to let Mu Xuan move the idea of marrying in the future.
She forcibly held back her joy and Mu Xuan said, "Okay, it's up to you." What Miss Rongsan, I'll give her a post. ”
Mu Xuan thanked Duan Hui.
Duan Hui talked to Mu Xuan about the death of the concubine Chai.
Mu Xuan's face gradually regained his previous indifference, and he didn't seem to be so concerned about this matter.
"I didn't expect this Gu family to do things properly, no wonder the princess would hand over most of the affairs to her. Looking at the young ones, it's okay. ”
Mu Xuan was even less interested in those people and things in the house, and said with a tired face: "My sister told me what to do with this." I'll go to Tangli Study first. ”
Duanhui knew that he didn't like to listen to these trivial housework, and he didn't force him, so he bowed his head and said, "Okay, come over and we'll have dinner together in a while." ”
Mu Xuan had no objection.
Duan Hui went to the second room and carefully thought about how to invite Miss Rongsan.
After a while, the nurse Chen walked in.
"The county lord is really happy today, it seems that the uncle came to bring you good news."
Duan Hui said: "It's not good news, but it's not a bad thing that he is willing to contact women." But ......" Duanhui put his hand on his cheek and looked at the peony flowers embroidered on the kang screen.
Chen hurriedly asked, "But is there anything else that is inappropriate?" ”
Only then did Duan Hui express his concerns, "I'm not familiar with that Miss Rongsan, what kind of young lady she is, I don't know at all." There must be a reason for inviting her in such a rash post. ”
Chen asked with a smile: "I don't know if this Rong family is the Rong family that the eldest lady of the Qi family married at the beginning?" If so, the two are also related. ”
Duan Huicai said suddenly: "I was confused, I forgot to ask Junhua." ”
Later, she suddenly remembered something and said to Chen: "If that's the case, didn't that Qi family die early." So isn't this Miss Rongsan the daughter of a bereaved mother? ”
In ancient times, there was a saying of "five don't marry", the first of which is "the eldest daughter who has lost her mother cannot marry". said that it was because the eldest daughter who lost her mother was taught by no one and had different qualities, and most of the people who were going to make it look down on such a background. Chen Shi understood the county lord's worries, and couldn't help but smile and explain: "The county lord wants to do so much now, and besides, the uncle didn't reveal what he meant in this regard." You can do whatever the uncle wants, beware of provoking the uncle, and don't come to the villa again. ”
Duanhui took Chen's hand and said, "In the end, the nurse understands me." I have always been calm, but when it comes to the matter of Meritus, I have no sense of proportion. ”
Chen smiled: "It's because the county lord is worried about the uncle." ”
Duan Hui said: "I'm just such a younger brother, I have a gap between him and the house, don't worry about him, who will worry about him." I hope that from now on, he will slowly return to his normal life and live a normal life. I don't have anything to complain about. By the way, there is another thing, Junhua said that he would take his original nurse to our villa, you see that people will pack up a house to prepare, after all, he was a meritorious person to Junhua back then, find a place to place her. ”
This is not a difficult task, Chen quickly agreed.
The county lord of Duanhui asked Mu Xuan clearly, and discussed with him again: "It just so happens that the pomegranate flowers over there are blooming well, so I think it is better to invite Miss Rongsan to come here to enjoy the pomegranate flowers." ”
Mu Xuan agreed: "It's okay." ”
"It's just that it's not interesting to invite her alone, her mother's Qi family and her mother's family also had dealings, it is said that when the mother concubine came to our house, the old lady of the Qi family also came to add a box. It's just that as soon as the mother concubine left, the relationship gradually faded. Taking advantage of the fact that the weather is not too hot, I plan to invite the old lady of the Qi family as well. There are also a few girls in their family, and they are invited together, and they are also lively. ”
As long as my sister is happy, Mu Xuan doesn't care. He completely left this matter to Duanhui. (To be continued.) )
