"Not going?"

Song Ruyue was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and said, "Didn't you just say that you were going to go?" ”

Luo Qingzhou paused, turned around, and said respectfully: "Mother-in-law, I lied to her just now." ”

Song Ruyue: "??? ”

Luo Qingzhou raised his head, looked at her, and said calmly: "I have an exam tomorrow, so no matter what happens today, I won't go out." For me, the exam is the most important thing. As for her and her daughter, that's a matter of Chengguofu, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

Song Ruyue looked at him in some surprise when she heard this.

Qin Wenzheng, who was on the side, frowned slightly.

Luo Qingzhou arched his hand and said, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, then Qingzhou will go back to study first." If she comes again, just ignore it. That eldest lady wants to disturb my state of mind, and even wants to trick me into harming me, and I will never go out. ”

After saying that, he said goodbye and retired.

When I went out, I glanced at the maids and grandmothers standing in the corridor next to me, and walked away quickly.

Xia Chan walked out from under the big tree in the courtyard, held the sword, and followed behind him.

In the hall, it was quiet.

Qin Wenzheng and Song Ruyue looked at each other and looked at each other.

"Master, Weimo seems to have misseen that kid."

Song Ruyue frowned slightly.

Qin Wenzheng sat down on the chair, picked up the teacup and said, "Human nature, that kid has been studying for so many years, isn't it just for tomorrow's exam." If he passes the exam, he will not only win glory for his deceased mother, but also earn his identity and future for himself, which will also be beneficial to our Qin family. So, if it were you, would you be willing to take the risk for the sake of two outsiders? ”

Song Ruyue said: "But master, you just said clearly that that kid values love and righteousness, and he wants to repay his kindness." You also said that in Chengguo Mansion, the mother and daughter were very good to him. ”

Qin Wenzheng took a sip of tea, looked at him and said, "Maybe in his heart, the mother and daughter are not as important as we imagined." Even if it is important, it will not be as important as his future. ”

Song Ruyue pursed her lips and didn't speak again.

After a while, she snorted coldly and said, "I'm going to find Weimo." ”

After that, he went out the door.

The maids and grandmothers in the corridor immediately followed.

Qin Wenzheng watched their figures walk away quickly, took a few more sips of tea, and said to the outside: "Zhou Tong." ”

Steward Zhou immediately walked in, bent down and said respectfully, "Master, what do you command?" ”

Qin Wenzheng's eyes flashed, and he said, "In recent months, do we have any newly bought maids and old mothers in our Qin Mansion?" ”

Steward Zhou thought for a moment when he heard this, and said, "No." Didn't the master say it last time, let's wait for the second son to finish the exam and move out, there are enough maids and maids in the house, and the slaves are already slowly dismissing, how can they buy it again. ”

Qin Wenzheng pondered for a moment and said, "It's enough to keep a dozen or so, and the rest will resign." Our Qin Mansion is no longer a noble family, and when we go to Kyoto in the future, we will have to be a man with our tail between our legs, and we can't raise so many people. Remember, those who leave must give more money, don't be stingy, if someone still wants to continue to do things, you can send them to the second master and the fourth master. In this Mo City, our Qin family still has some industries, and we should still need some manpower, so we can't let them lose their source of livelihood. ”

Steward Zhou bowed his head and said, "Don't worry, master, the slave knows." ”

Qin Wenzheng put down the teacup, looked at him and said, "I just saw that Madame is still following a few maids and grandmothers, you go and check them carefully, these days, pay attention to their movements." ”

Steward Zhou's face changed slightly, and he raised his head and said, "Master......"

Qin Wenzheng waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, those people are all old people in the mansion and maids who grew up in the mansion, and we have checked it many times, so it should be no problem." It's just that Qingzhou has to take the exam in the next few days, and Chuan'er will also take the exam in a few days, so you still have to be cautious. ”

Steward Zhou immediately bowed down and said, "Yes, master." ”

Song Ruyue went to the backyard.

In the courtyard, the sun was scorching, and the bluestone slabs on the ground were hot.

A weak girl in a plain white dress was standing in the shadows in the corridor, frowning slightly, thinking about things.

As soon as Song Ruyue entered the door, she said, "Weimo, you guessed wrong this time." The kid chose not to go, and he didn't care, he said that the most important thing now is the exam. I just said that the mother and daughter were already outsiders to him. How could he give up his exam for the sake of them? He is a scholar and knows what is more important. ”

Qin Weimo was slightly stunned when she heard this, and said, "Mother, what did my brother-in-law say at that time?" ”

Song Ruyue walked to the corridor and said, "The second lady of Chengguo Mansion also came, begging him for help, he lied to people in front of them and said to go, and when they left, he said he wouldn't go......"

As he spoke, he recounted everything that had just happened in the hall.

Qin Weimo frowned slightly and fell silent.

Song Ruyue glanced at her face and said, "What, disappointed in that kid?" In fact, his mother thinks that he is doing great things like this. It is not worth delaying one's future and happiness for the sake of outsiders. ”

Qin Weimo pondered again, looked at the maids and grandmothers standing in the corridor next to him, paused, and said softly: "Mother, it's hot, let them all go down and rest." It's enough to have Jewel and Plum here. ”

Song Ruyue glanced at those maids and grandmothers, and ordered: "Let's all step aside, Mei'er can stay." ”

"Yes, ma'am."

The maids and grandmothers bowed, wiped their sweat, and respectfully retreated.

Qin Weimo saw them leaving, Fang turned around and said, "Mother, enter the house." There was ice in the house, so it was cooler. ”

Song Ruyue followed her in, and suddenly realized that "there is a spy? ”

Qin Weimo entered the house and did not answer immediately.

After a while, Fang said to Zhu'er, who was standing at the door: "Zhu'er, go and call Qiu'er, remember, don't let your uncle find out." ”

"Yes, miss."

Jewel immediately hurried away.

Qin Weimo said softly: "Mother, brother-in-law must have a reason for doing this." However, Weimo believes that if the incident in Chengguofu is true, his brother-in-law will definitely not sit idly by. ”

Song Ruyue pursed her lips and said, "As soon as he is a scholar, he will have some schemes, what can he do?" The two families agreed, one is the Chengguo Mansion and the other is the City Lord's Mansion, even if the saint comes up, it is inconvenient to forcibly prevent the family from marrying. ”

Qin Weimo smiled slightly and didn't speak again.

She believes that her brother-in-law will definitely be able to think of a way to solve this matter.

She just thought about it in the hallway, put herself in the role of her brother-in-law, and thought carefully about her brother-in-law's previous thoughts and behaviors in solving things.

She felt that the matter was impossible to solve on the surface.

Just like my mother said, one is the Chengguo Mansion and the other is the City Lord's Mansion, both of which are the biggest forces in Mocheng, and the two families are willingly married, who can stop it?

As for going directly to Chengguofu to take people away, it is even more impossible, robbing people without a name or divide, that is a bandit, and it is not an exaggeration to put them to death.

Therefore, the only way is to act in secret.

Sneaking people away?

This method is also impossible, Meaux is so big, where can it be hidden?

And since they took the initiative to inform, they naturally had already prepared, and it is estimated that traps and ambushes had already been set up in Chengguo's mansion, just waiting for his brother-in-law to step in.

My brother-in-law is so smart that he definitely won't do this.

Well, there's only one way.

It is estimated that Chengguofu will not think about it at all, not only Chengguofu will not think about it, but the city lord's mansion may not think about it either.

If exposed, the consequences are severe.

How could a brother-in-law, a scholar, destroy his future and lose his life for the sake of a foreigner, mother and daughter?

Moreover, in the eyes of outsiders, he does not have that ability.

Therefore, if this method is acted, it is definitely a surprise, but it can solve the problem as quickly as possible.

If she were a brother-in-law, she would probably use this method.

She was just thinking and guessing, but now when she heard her mother's attitude about her brother-in-law's attitude in the hall just now, her mind suddenly settled down.

The brother-in-law has already begun to clear up his relationship in advance, paralyzing the enemy in advance, and telling the enemy in advance that he is now focused on the exam, and he will definitely not delay the exam for the sake of two outsiders.

So whatever happens outside in the future has nothing to do with him.

But......

She was very curious, and her brother-in-law seemed to be sure that someone would pass on what he had just said and his attitude.

Has my brother-in-law identified a spy again?

The old gentleman in the account room last time, and the maid, one is an old friend who has been with the Qin family for decades, and the other is growing up in the mansion since childhood, and the brother-in-law can know at once that the other party is a spy, it seems that the brother-in-law's ability is far more than what she sees and knows now.

Qin Weimo thought secretly in his heart.

Song Ruyue was also thinking about things.

For a moment, the room fell silent.

Not long after, Zhu'er took Qiu'er and walked in hurriedly.

Qiu'er entered the house, first worshiped Song Ruyue, and then said happily: "Miss, are you going to see your uncle?" ”

Qin Weimo said softly: "Qiu'er, don't mention this matter first. Let me ask you, what did my brother-in-law do when he just went back? Did you go out? ”

Qiu'er thought for a moment and said, "My uncle didn't go out, and when she went back, she told the slave and Fluttershy to keep the courtyard door closed and not let anyone enter the house to disturb him." Then my uncle closed the door and stayed in the house. ”

Qin Weimo frowned slightly: "Is there any movement in the house?" ”

Qiu'er shook her head: "No, it's quiet in the house, and my uncle seems to have gone to bed." ”

Qin Weimo asked again, "What about Xia Chan?" ”

Qiu'er said: "The slave maid saw her when she just came out, she was standing under the big tree outside the door, I let her in, she didn't go in, she just stood there all the time." ”

Qin Weimo was silent for a moment, and said softly: "Qiu'er, has Xia Chan been going to Meixiang Garden often recently?" ”

Qiu'er said: "Well, my uncle often takes the initiative to invite her into the house." By the way, Miss, my aunt also brought back a pair of socks and shoes, which should be hers, and my aunt asked Fluttershy and me to help her make shoes and socks......"

"Damn!"

When Song Ruyue heard this, she finally couldn't listen to it anymore, and immediately said angrily: "That little bastard actually hooked up with Xia Chan too?" Xia Chan's girl is so well-behaved, how can it be...... It must have been that bastard's sweet talk, some despicable and obscene means to deceive! Poor little girl, innocent, simple and cute, ignorant of the world, ignorant of people's hearts, and so ruined by that bastard! That bastard is not as good as a beast! ”

Qiu'er lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything.

The corners of Qin Weimo's mouth twitched slightly, and said, "Mother, don't worry, the sword in Xia Chan's hand is dedicated to brother-in-law, brother-in-law doesn't dare." ”

When Song Ruyue heard this, her eyes immediately turned red, and she was full of grievances: "Why don't that bastard dare?" Weimo, he even dares to bully me! Isn't it because I've reprimanded him a few times before? Now every time he sees me, he glares at me and scares me, and I am scared...... Phew! My son is a martial arts practitioner, and my daughter is the first talented woman in Mocheng, will I be afraid of him? ”

Qin Weimo couldn't help but smile and said, "Mother, every time my brother-in-law sees you, he is very respectful to you, where is he glaring at you and scaring you." ”

Song Ruyue's eyes widened, and she said angrily: "Still say no?" It turned out that when he first came, every time he saw me, he was respectful, kept his head down, and never dared to look up at me. Now every time you see me, you have to look at me a few times, and dare to talk to me, isn't that staring at me and scaring me? Weimo, you have to help your mother in the future, you must not let that little bastard bully your mother. ”

Qin Weimo nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, when the time comes, Weimo will help her mother bully her brother-in-law." ”

Song Ruyue was just about to nod, but suddenly squinted at her again and said, "How do you want to bully him?" ”

Qin Weimo held Xiao Fan's fist and said, "How many punches do you punch your brother-in-law?" ”

Song Ruyue rolled her eyes: "Hmph, fooling your mother again, if you are willing to work hard, your mother will kneel on the ground and kowtow to you." ”

Qin Weimo said with a smile: "Forget it, Weimo can't do such a big rebellious thing, Weimo still won't beat his brother-in-law......"

The noon sun is unusually scorching.

Yang Ping'er had red eyes, sweating profusely, and hurriedly walked down the street, walking towards Chengguofu.

In the air above her head, a phantom shadow that was difficult to see with the naked eye followed her all the way forward in the scorching sun.

Walked for a while.

Yang Ping'er hurried into an alley.

In the alley, a maid was waiting there, and when she saw her coming, she greeted her with a cold face.

Luo Qingzhou recognized this maid.

Lu'e, the personal maid of the second son of Chengguofu, often bullied Fluttershy.
