Outside the Ruogu courtyard, Aunt Zi stood in the shade of the tree, and the maid behind her kept helping her fan, but her face was still hot and full of sweat, and the sweat stains were stained with fat powder, looking very embarrassed, but her expression was calm and peaceful, with a slight smile, looking forward to but doting at the courtyard, although there was nothing to see in the courtyard except for a row of straight poplar trees.

Shu Mo saw such a scene when he resigned, his already cold expression was even more indifferent, and he only nodded slightly to Aunt Zi's distant invitation, and then entered Ruogu Courtyard, and asked the little maid guarding the door in a low voice, and said softly, "Girl, Aunt Zi has come to send some things to the eighth master from time to time since she took charge of the inner courtyard of the long house, and the eighth master refuses to see her, and she doesn't even accept her things, and Aunt Zi is not annoyed, so she still comes to Ruogu Courtyard from time to time."

Shu Mo was silent, "Pay more attention to Xiaoba's movements in the future, and come and tell me anything about it."

Yingluo responded, Shu Yuechi got the news over there, greeted her, and respectfully called the eldest sister, Shu Moci responded lightly, entered the study to check his academic progress, and motioned for Yingluo and the others to retreat before speaking, "Aunt Zi came to see you, you don't see her?" ”

Shu Moci's voice was as indifferent as ever, Shu Yuechi didn't allow her attitude, and answered yes, Shu Moci looked at him silently, Shu Yuechi gritted his teeth and spoke, "Big sister, I don't want to see her."

"She's your biological mother, why don't you want to see her?"

But after a few months of work, Shu Yuechi's height has changed a lot, looking at the appearance of a nine-year-old child, only a little thinner, hearing the words, he pursed his lips a little aggrieved, Shu Moci said lightly, "There are all parents in the world, even if she treated you badly before, you are unfilial to her like this, and other people's spit can drown you, and your reputation is ruined, what future do you have?" ”

Shu Yuechi was stunned, "I-"

"You are not small, you have to think carefully about things, live a life, do not seek glory and wealth, do not need to climb power, just seek to be upright and worthy of your heart, even if you are ridiculed and ridiculed by others, you have nothing to be ashamed of."

Shu Yuechi silently recited it, awe-inspiring to be taught, Shu Moci saw that he really listened, and commanded, "Invite Aunt Zi to the flower hall."

Yingluo responded, Shu Mo was silent and said again, "Just standing upright and worthy of your heart does not mean that you can be calculated, Aunt Zi often blocks the door of Ruogu Courtyard like today, just to make you succumb to the relationship between mother and son, so it will definitely bring you the reputation of being cold and disregarding family affection, but I don't know if she thought of it?" ”

Shu Yuechi's face turned pale, he knew that she wanted him to forget the past for the sake of the mother-son relationship, but he didn't expect that-

"Or maybe she just wants others to see it, so that you have to be kind to her under pressure from your father or someone else!" Shu Mo's words are cool, family affection? What is it in the eyes of these people? Zhong's mother and daughter are like this, and Aunt Zi is like this, what they think of is always calculation, and they want others to give in to their calculations!

"Little Eight, no matter what Aunt Zi's intentions are, you must not let people hold your handle, this matter may not be a matter now, maybe one day it will become a sharp weapon for others to hurt you."

In the near future, Shu Yuechi, who has suffered many disasters, will understand the power of Shu Moci's words, and at this time, a nine-year-old precocious boy rarely panicked, "Big sister-"

"There has been a great deal of improvement, no matter what happens in the future, you treat Aunt Zi, at least you can't let people see that something is wrong."

Shu Yuechi lowered her head and said yes, Shu Mo got up, "I'll go back first, you go to see Aunt Zi."

In the courtyard of the Duke of Youguo's mansion, You Yunzhi was carefully interrogating Qi's mother, who had gone to the Wenchang Marquis Mansion with You Han before, "Miss Shu didn't see you?" ”

"Yes, the old slave followed the instructions of the second master, saying that a few days ago, the eighth master avoided his family and went out alone, and forgot to bring money to buy things, and it was the girl who solved the siege, and the eighth master specially came to thank him, and the eldest girl of the Shu family said that it was a matter of effort, so that the eighth master did not have to take it to heart, and originally he was not even allowed to see the girl of Yingluo, but it was the eighth master who saw the opportunity to make trouble, and the eldest girl Shu sent the girl out to kowtow to the eighth master."

You Yunzhi glanced at the note in his hand again, "What else did she say besides this note?" ”

"The girl said that their girls are kind-hearted and do not want to repay their kindness, if the Guogong Mansion keeps it in mind, it will make their girls uneasy."

It's to keep herself from bothering her.

Seeing that he didn't ask again, Mother Qi retreated silently, You Feng was really curious, and coughed, "Second Master, what did Miss Shu write?" ”

"The appearance and age of the two mothers-in-law and their clothes, as well as the length and texture of the penny they used."

You Feng coughed again, penny or something, it's really not necessary, right?

She said that the penny is about three zhang long, two fingers thick, it is a good Xiangfei bamboo, and at first glance it is Hsinchu, such a penny should be locked in the warehouse, in case the master occasionally uses bamboo slips when writing invitations, so as not to be busy."

Daxian is the peaceful and prosperous era, the wind and elegance of the wind and elegance are victorious, there are many different patterns just for the invitation, the material is even stranger, the bamboo is very popular with its gentleman who would rather bend than bend, the rain of Xiangfei bamboo is not easy to erode, lightweight, strong tensile force, very suitable for making bamboo slips, and the yield is small, most of them are produced in the Xiangshui Basin of Hunan, nowadays the aristocracy is proud of the use of Xiangfei bamboo, such penny is naturally not everyone can get, You Feng feels that there is something very fast flashing in front of him, and he has not seen what it is, I heard You Yunzhi say lightly, "Go and find out which warehouse has this kind of Xiangfei bamboo."

"Yes! Miss Nashu—"

"Don't bother with it, if she asks for help from the Guogong Mansion in the future, just help her."

You Feng bowed down, and as soon as You Feng went out, You Hanzhi jumped in and shouted loudly, "Second brother, are you done with your business?" ”

You Yunzhi had a headache when he saw him jumping out of shape, "What's the matter?" ”

"Second brother, it wasn't the maid who saved me at all, I remember her voice, it wasn't the maid at all!"

You Hanzhi is no longer stubborn about saving his dead mother, You Yunzhi thought that he had put things down, and he didn't want him to still think about it, his face was slightly cold, "Hanzhi, the thing you fell into the water is unusual, no matter who really saved you, what you have to thank is that maid."

"Then tell me who saved me!"

"If you don't want the person who saved you to be dragged down by you, don't ask anything."

You Hanzhi wilted and muttered, "Anyway, I remember her voice, I'll definitely recognize it next time I meet her," and left listlessly.

You Yunzhi looked at his wilting back, and the corner of his eye swept to his crippled right leg, if not, if not-

"Smack-"

The armrest of the wheelchair broke in response, and You Feng, who had just come back from explaining the matter, was startled, "Second master, what did the eighth master say?" "Qi like this?

"It's okay, Mingyou Jiu Haosheng looks at him, practice more, don't feel sorry for him."

You Feng wanted to say something, but swallowed again, "Yes, the slave will do it."
