Chapter 236: You ...... Not dumb?
The daughter-in-law seemed to be frightened, and was stunned for a long time before she gestured again.
Zhou Shu didn't understand dumb language, and asked urgently, "Can you write?" ”
The daughter-in-law shook her head vigorously, glanced left and right, and quickly stuffed him with a paper ball while no one was paying attention. Seeing that he let go, he hurriedly blessed his body and trotted all the way.
Yuan Fang's feet moved, and he was about to chase after him, but he was stopped by Zhou Shu's voice, "Let her go." ”
"Yes." Yuan Fang agreed, retreated to Jian Ying and stood up.
Seeing Zhou Shu's gaffe, Jian Ying guessed what the jade pendant had to do with him, but she was not in a hurry to ask him. Slowly pacing all the way to the door of the weeping flowers.
Jiang's mother had already asked someone to prepare a soft sedan chair and wait there, and she was waiting with her, as well as the housekeeper Qiao Ma beside Mrs. Jian's second wife.
This Qiao's mother is the most eloquent, and she is the right-hand man of Mrs. Jian's second wife. stepped forward to greet the two of them, and said with a smile on his face: "The sixth aunt is here, why don't you go ahead and have a few drinks and be lively with the big guys?" ”
"Nope." Zhou Shu said lightly, "I'm not used to drinking during the day, and I have to go back to study." ”
"Yes, yes, the most important thing is to study." Qiao's mother echoed continuously, and then turned to Jian Ying, "Miss Sixth finally came back, how good is it to stay in the mansion for a few days, why are you in a hurry to go back?"
Mrs. Four was frightened and fell ill, and if she woke up and couldn't see you, she would definitely be disappointed. The second wife hasn't seen you for a long time, and she wants to wait for the banquet to disperse and talk to you about her thoughtfulness. ”
Jian Ying said in her heart, how can Mrs. Jian have any intimate words to say to her, it is not bad if she is not a heart-wrenching word. With a smile on his face, he said: "I am pregnant, I have many problems, and I eat and drink, and if I don't use the things I am used to, I will definitely be uncomfortable."
If I stay in the house, how can my mother not remember me, and how can she recuperate in peace? The husband and the people of the mother-in-law's family are also frightened, and there are not a few steps away, so why bother to toss the two families to suffer?
Besides, the second aunt still has distinguished guests to entertain, so it's better not to make trouble for her.
The second aunt was busy there. I'm not going to say goodbye to her face-to-face. so as not to disturb everyone's interest. You make amends for me and my second aunt, and say that when she is done, I will take her and my mother to the palace to live for a few days, and then we will have a good talk about intimate words. ”
Second Mrs. Jian knew that Zhou Shu would come to pick it up in person. Jian Ying can't be forcibly left. Send Qiao's mother over. It's just a whole ceremony. Qiao's mother is the roundworm in the stomach of Mrs. Jian's second wife, so she naturally understands this layer.
After a few more polite words, he sent the two out of the house.
Out of Jane's House. Jian Ying got off the sedan chair and got into the car, Zhou Shu got on the horse, and the carriage and horses moved together, driving straight to the Ji'an Palace.
Xueqin couldn't stop glancing at Jian Ying, who was leaning on the saddle and closing her eyes for a nap, and stopped talking several times.
Jian Ying was a little impatient, "If you want to ask, just ask." ”
Xueqin's expression was a little sneering, and she hesitated, "Can the slave really ask?" ”
Jian Ying opened her eyes and glared at her, "Otherwise, why do you think I would leave you alone to accompany me in the car?" Is it because you're exceptionally good-looking? ”
"No, where do you look good, slave?" Xueqin felt that she was being valued, and her mood immediately jumped up, and after patting her fart, she asked carefully, "Second young lady, the hosta girl is the one...... Miss Six, right? ”
Jian Ying let out a "hmm".
"And she...... She wanted to ......"
"Didn't you hear it all? She wanted to swap my seat back. ”
Although she had already guessed eight ~ nine and ten, Xue Qin couldn't help but be surprised when she said it herself. I didn't know what to comment on for a while, so I had to be silent.
Jian Ying glanced at her lightly, "If you want to go back to Jane's house and serve the real Sixth Miss, I won't stop you." ”
"Second Young Lady." Xueqin hurriedly slid down from her seat and knelt in front of Jian Ying, "The slave and maid are not going, since the slave and maid are with you, they only recognize you as a master, you must not drive the slave and maid away." ”
She is not a fool, how can she not see that the sixth lady is no longer the same as in the past? has a head and tail with a young master who is not a member of the Taiyuan Marquis Mansion, and he is bound to marry into the Taiyuan Marquis Mansion, how can he follow the second young lady with dignity?
And Miss Six is really ruthless, she can be ruthless to her sister and nephew who has not yet been born, how good can she be to the girls around her?
It's that the second young lady no longer trusts her, and if she wants to drive her away, she won't serve the sixth lady.
"Get up." After Jian Ying said this, she closed her eyes again.
Xueqin didn't know if her loyalty had been passed on, and she was worried. I had the heart to say something more, but seeing that she had no intention of continuing to talk to herself, I had to give up for fear of annoying her.
Back at the Blue Courtyard, Fang's mother had already set the meal.
Jian Ying was really hungry, so she picked up two bowls of rice in one go, and was persuaded by Fang's mother to put away her chopsticks, and Zhou Shu also ate some with her. After the meal, he removed the dishes and talked about the jade pendant, "...... It was a relic of the concubine. ”
Jian Ying was a little surprised, "How could the relics of the mother concubine be on the descendants of the Taiyuan Marquis Mansion?" ”
"I don't know." Zhou Shu shook his head, "She invited me to meet at Daming Lake later, and I'll know when the time comes." ”
"I'll go with you." Jian Ying immediately made a decision.
Zhou Shu disagreed, "I just asked Shi Quan to stay in Jian Mansion, and secretly investigated, her name is Sister-in-law Qu, she is a cook in Taiyuan Marquis's Mansion, she has served Mrs. Taiyuan Marquis and Young Master Miao, and now she is the one who serves the hosta."
Although I think it's unlikely, it's hard to guarantee that she's not a pawn under the hosta, so it's better to be careful. You can stay in the mansion, I will bring Shiquan and Longjing over, they just want to calculate me, and they will not succeed. ”
Jian Ying felt that he was reasonable, so she didn't insist, "Okay, then you should be careful." ”
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Zhou Shu soothed her.
After gossiping for a while, Jian Ying was sleepy and went to make up for sleep. Zhou Shu went to the study to read the book for a while, and when the hour was almost up, he went out of the inner courtyard, went to the tea garden to gather all the people, and went straight to Daming Lake.
The place where Qu sister-in-law settled is in the most remote place in the northwest corner of Daming Lake, where there is a small pavilion surrounded by rockeries, called "Fengyin Pavilion".
Monkey Kui went to investigate first, but didn't find anything wrong, so he invited Zhou Shu over. After waiting for about a quarter of an hour in the pavilion, Fang saw Sister-in-law Qu coming in a hurry.
"Who the hell are you?" As soon as they met, Zhou Shu couldn't wait to ask, "Why are there relics of the concubine?" ”
Sister-in-law Qu walked a few steps and knelt down, "Second young master......"
The hoarse voice, like metal rubbing gravel, was very harsh.
Zhou Shu looked at her in amazement, "You...... Not dumb? ”
Sister-in-law Qu didn't answer this, and raised her tearful face, "Second young master, the slave is Qingmo." ”
