Chapter 18 Putting the Heart in the Heart

Mama Zhou saw that Liu Qingsu was sending Fang Zi and lifting a piece of epiphany, and she didn't say anything more. Novelใ—

Qingzhi on the side was a little puzzled by this, and he didn't know what kind of dumb riddle the two were playing.

After that, Mama Zhou said goodbye to Liu Qingsu.

"The second girl's tea slave maid has been taught, and the second girl is busy, so the slave and maid will not bother much. The slave and maid took their leave. โ€

Liu Qingsu instructed Qingzhi to send it to each other: "Qingzhi, send Mama Zhou for me." โ€

Before Qingzhi left, Liu Qingsu took out a small purse and gave it to Qingzhi, "This is for Mama Zhou, saying that it is for her to buy some snacks, there is tea and no snacks, it is inevitable that there are some shortcomings." โ€

Qingzhi handed over the purse given by Liu Qingsu to Mama Zhou after sending Mama Zhou to the door, Mama Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The slave maid has eaten the second girl's good tea, and she has also won the appreciation of the second girl. โ€

Qingzhi said: "Mama Zhou is a capable person around the third lady, and no one in the house will take a high look." Today's slave maid is also entrusted with the girl's blessing to send to the grandmother, our girl said, these are for you to buy some snacks, the girl said that there is tea without snacks inevitably have some shortcomings, you can rest assured to accept it. Qingzhi didn't know what her girl meant, what did she and Mama Zhou say just now, what kind of dumb riddle did the two seem to be playing? She felt that it shouldn't be as simple as cherry blossom viewing. And the girl weighed a lot of money for Mama Zhou. So Qingzhi was also much more polite when talking to Mama Zhou.

After listening to Qingzhi's words, Mama Zhou took the purse with her hand, and then said with a smile: "The slave and maid thank you for the reward of the second girl." With that, he left.

As soon as I entered the house, I heard Liu Qingsu speak: "Pay attention these days, if Mama Zhou comes, you will come to report to me about everything, and you must be polite to Mama Zhou." โ€

Qingzhi hurriedly responded, but he was even more surprised in his heart.

Liu Qingsu seemed to know the doubts in Qingzhi's heart, and said, "You don't understand why I treat Mama Zhou so politely? โ€

Aoeda nodded and shook her head.

Liu Qingsu was a little funny, and then sighed secretly in his heart.

"Qingzhi, you might as well open the skylight and say something bright today, since I mentioned that you are a first-class girl, it is not purely to promote you, but you have merit. You have always been careful and cautious, and it is rare to be affectionate, I think that as long as I treat her with my heart, I am not afraid that she will be unfaithful. To put it bluntly, I'm a motherless child. It would be disrespectful to say this in front of people, after all, there is a mother. But no matter how good your mother is, she is not a mother, and she will not dig out her heart and lungs for you. Nowadays, women have always been demanding, and a slight wrong step may be a catastrophe. You may have heard those people who came and went to talk about the intrigue inside and outside the various prefectures, although some of them were false, and some of them were true. That's why I want people around me to be faithful and to work with me. Although I don't have such big expectations at the moment, I also ask and hope to keep the red purple bamboo and blue moon and you at least to do this. Do you understand? โ€

Whenever there is a word about this today, Liu Qingsu will be criticized by the same opinion and accusation as her, especially for the eldest lady, the girl's sentence of a motherless child can make people feel a deep thorn in their hearts. Qingzhi didn't expect Liu Qingsu to say this to her, and she was very moved for a while.

So, Qingzhi hurriedly said solemnly: "The slave only knows the girl in this life. โ€

Liu Qingsu was still a little hesitant after saying that, judging from the memories of the previous life, Qingzhi is indeed a person who values affection and righteousness, and his vision is more transparent than ordinary people. Of course, such a person wants to take it for his own use, so that he will be loyal to himself for the rest of his life. It's just that people's hearts are fickle, and no one knows what will happen and what will change. At least her brother's poisoning caught her off guard. Now I have a lot of peace of mind after hearing Aoeda's words. It's just that Liu Qingsu is afraid that he doesn't understand Qingzhi's solemnity this time, but it is like an oath, and even his husband's endless "means" after that failed to make Qingzhi "rebel".

"Sometimes loyalty alone is not enough, for example, just now you obviously had doubts about my courtesy to Mama Zhou, but when I asked you, you shook your head and nodded. What does this mean? It shows that you don't trust me. โ€

Qingzhi hurriedly said: "The slave didn't mean that. โ€

Liu Qingsu said: "Why did you first say why you nodded and then shook your head?" โ€

Aoeda was silent.

Liu Qingsu continued: "Do you think that the master's behavior does not need to be questioned by a slave? โ€

Qingzhi immediately nodded.

Liu Qingsu said: "The master's approach naturally has the master's intentions, and loyalty does not mean obeying the master's intentions. Let me ask, can all slaves and maids understand what their masters have done? No, of course not. So many times, in addition to the tacit understanding between the master and the slave, we must try to understand the master's approach. There is no conflict between being faithful to the Lord and a slave who understands his master. Many times, it is because of a lot of incomprehension that causes estrangement between the master and the slave, and sometimes because of each other's lack of understanding, they make mistakes, so that many things become opposites. There are many examples of good intentions doing bad things, do you say that for such a situation is punishment or no punishment? Punishment, that hurts people's hearts, but not punishment is really doing something wrong. I don't want to put me in a dilemma between us. Today, I might as well tell you that as long as I am dedicated to my people, I will not treat him badly. โ€

Qingzhi was full of emotion after listening to Liu Qingsu's words, the girl has grown up and matured a lot. What the girl said made her feel comforted, but at the same time guilty.

"The slave understands what the girl means." Aoeda said sincerely.

"It's good that you understand. I courteous Mama Zhou because I feel that Mama Zhou is afraid that there is some big secret. And she was going to tell her, but it wasn't clear what it was. It's just that I feel that it is probably related to the poison in my brother. It's just that Mama Zhou is the third aunt after all, and Mama Zhou's mind is afraid that it is not shallow, so when I left, I asked you to take her ten taels of silver and confessed those words. โ€

Qingzhi immediately understood after listening to it. "Is it true to see that the epiphany is fake, and to tell the secret is true?"

Liu Qingsu said meaningfully: "Wrong, it's all true." โ€

Qingzhi said, "The slave doesn't understand. โ€

Liu Qingsu said: "True and false, you yourself take it seriously, how can others still say fake words?" โ€

Qingzhi said: "The girl gave her ten taels of silver and gave her more than half of the monthly money to remind her that she must come to the appointment?" โ€

Liu Qingsu was happy at the moment, this Qingsu is really smart. "You're right, and that purse has a special mark. Therefore, Mama Zhou will come. โ€

Liu Qingsu became more and more relieved after speaking. Then he said, "It's all right for you to do that." Sometimes you are too careful, and it is not beautiful. If every slave does not dare and will not question the master, then what should the master do if he makes a wrong decision? Everyone has to pay for their bad decisions. So many times you have to rely on the help of the people around you to travel less. โ€

Qingzhi nodded repeatedly.

At this time, I heard Liuhong outside: "When did you come, sir?" โ€

Liu Qingsu and Liuhong hurriedly greeted them.

"Daughter Qingsu asks her father to be safe."

"Slave Qingzhi greets the eldest master."

Liu Jingye looked at the slim daughter in front of him, and his heart was a little complicated at the moment. He was originally a cold-hearted person, and he had always cared little about the affairs of the back house, so the Qi family was always depressed in his heart, and finally died of incense. I didn't pay attention to my mother and son in Yixinyuan before, but my daughter was so old in a blink of an eye.

I received a letter from the house before, saying that the Seventh Prince came to visit, and it happened that the poisoning of Yuan Yi was somehow known to everyone, so the boss saw that someone in the house was looking for him, so he let himself go home first. I was also worried about the uninhibited and uninhibited Seven Princes, for fear of causing some trouble, who knew that the Seven Princes who rushed back actually talked with their own mothers, so it seemed that they were in the way, and the Seven Princes saw that they were speechless and said to themselves: "Does Lord Liu still have something to discuss with the old lady?" โ€

I originally wanted to say yes, I wanted to send away the Seven Princes who were not easy to provoke, but who expected that the Seven Princes seemed to have to listen to the matter after asking. In this way, even if there is anything, how can you say it? Not to mention no. Looking at his mother's questioning gaze, he had to say, "No." โ€

What made people vomit blood even more was that the Seventh Prince actually nodded and said: "Oh, I should have something big, I originally wanted to help the staff officers, since there is none, you can go back." โ€

Her own wife was a rare gaffe, and she looked at the Seven Princes in amazement. Who knew that the person concerned didn't seem to know it, and he didn't feel inappropriate at all. My wife had to wave to herself and let herself go back.

Didn't he just go back to the main courtyard to see Yu, Yu said that Qing Su was busy with Yuan Yi's affairs and didn't have a good meal, so he had a thought in his heart to come and have a look.

Who knew that Liu Qingsu and Mama Zhou had something to say just now, so they sent off a group of people, leaving only Qingzhi alone to accompany them. After that, he was busy talking to Qingzhi, but he didn't let people in. Liuhong is that he went out before something, and he will come back just right.

So it was Liu Qingsu who said what he said to Qingzhi in the end, so that Liu Jingye listened to it.

Liu Jingye was very surprised that his daughter also had such remarks. So there was Liu Qingsu to greet him again, and Liu Jingye looked at him.

Liu Qingsu saw that his father did not react for a long time, so he thought that his words had been heard by his father just now, and his father had an opinion. So he didn't dare to get up and still make a blessing.

After a while, Liu Jingye went directly into the house. Liu Qingsu also hurriedly followed in, and said by the way: "Qingzhi, go and make a cup of tea for your father." โ€

Qingzhi understood that the girl was helping her, so she hurried out.

After Liu Jingye sat down, he said to Liu Qingsu: "You also sit." โ€

Liu Qingsu sat down next to him as he said.

Liu Jingye was about to speak, but looked at Liuhong, who was still on the side, and stopped.

Seeing this, Liu Qingsu said, "You can go down too." โ€

After saying that, he thought that it was almost time for dinner, so he said, "You wait a minute." โ€

Liu Jingye was a little puzzled. Liu Qingsu said: "Father, have you eaten?" Or I'll have some food at my daughter's place today. โ€

Liu Jingye thought for a while and nodded.

"You go to the room and tell your mother that your father is eating in a leisurely house today, and then tell your mother to come and eat together if she is free, and you let the kitchen prepare more meals. Remember to make the kitchen bloom with hibiscus flowers. โ€
