Chapter 57: Calculation
After Mu Zhiling left, Mama Hu hurried back to the long room.
Mu Zongsheng was not there, Gao was talking to Mu Zhishu beside him in the bedroom, embroidering needlework on his hands, seeing Mama Hu coming, he put down the embroidered cloth and asked, "How are things going?" ”
Mama Hu suddenly lowered her head, timidly not daring to raise it.
Gao's sharp eyes saw the clue, got up and asked, "But what went wrong?" ”
Mama Hu fell to her knees with a puff and said tremblingly: "Madam, seeing that the third master is almost at the Juxing House...... I didn't expect ...... Halfway through the meeting of Miss Five, she sent someone to send the third master back......"
Gao's face immediately became gloomy.
"Madam......" Mama Hu looked up and caught a glimpse of the dissatisfaction in Gao's eyes, a little panicked, and wanted to tell Gao about Mu Zhiling's intention to drive her out of the country's mansion, but as soon as the words reached her mouth, she swallowed again.
When Mu Zhishu heard this, she got up and said, "It's that Mu Zhiling again!" Mother, I can't let her go this time! ”
Gao Shi held his forehead with one hand, rubbed his temples that were a little swollen and painful, pulled Mu Zhishu to sit down, and said with a little accusation: "Shu'er, what your father told you, no matter how much resentment you have in your heart, don't be impulsive." You learn from your eldest sister, if you let your father see it, you will be unhappy again. ”
Mu Zhishu sat down indignantly and muttered: "Of course I know, but this is not by your mother's side, and it is not in front of Mu Zhiling." ”
Gao ignored Mu Zhishu's complaints, turned his head and motioned for Mama Hu to get up, but Mama Hu knelt down, her body trembling even more.
A trace of displeasure appeared on Gao's face, and his voice became more and more cold, and said: "You have also served by my side for more than ten years, what world has not seen, today is not frightened by a little girl who is less than twelve years old?" She asked you to carry the third master back, and you carried it back, what could she think of? ”
Mama Hu has just arrived at the Guogong Mansion for a few days, and it is common sense that she is not familiar with the terrain.
Mama Hu shook her head violently and said, "But Fifth Miss, she wants to drive the old slave out of the Yingguo Mansion, and she also asked the old slave to kneel on the stone slab and not get up, madam, I ......"
Mama Hu was extremely aggrieved.
Before coming to Kyoto, she was the head of the long house, and she was deeply trusted by the Gao family, without the consent of the uncle and the eldest lady, who could drive her away?
But Miss Five's tone at that time was definitely not a joke.
Gao snorted coldly and said, "The people in my long room, when will it be someone else's turn to take care of it?" Go down first, and I'll take care of the rest." ”
Mama Hu pushed down, Mu Zhishu's expression was suddenly stern, grabbed Gao's sleeve and said, "Mother, Mu Zhiling must not be underestimated!" What if she's only twelve? Have you forgotten that five years ago, she framed her daughter and pushed her into the water? She wasn't even seven years old! At what age did she have that kind of mind, but think of her now! ”
Gao Shi said disapprerovingly: "She doesn't know about us, and besides, what happened back then may be just accidental, and it is impossible for her to have such a mind as a child." ”
Mu Zhishu said fiercely: "No matter whether she had that mind at the time or not, I will definitely not let her go." If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been in the temple for half a year. Mother, I will make her look good tomorrow, no matter how much she thinks about it, it will not help. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Gao was puzzled.
The corners of Mu Zhishu's mouth were lightly raised, and her slightly thick and full red lips were curved into a good-looking arc, and she whispered in Gao's ear: "Today I let the sixth sister put on a good show, and let her pretend to be bitten by Mu Zhiling's big dog." In order to make this matter more realistic, he also deliberately used a silver hairpin to tattoo two red dots on his legs. ”
Mu Zhishu smiled proudly, but Gao Shi held her slender hand tightly, and said with some concern: "Shu'er, have you forgotten what your father told you?" ”
Mu Zhishu's expression froze, and she returned to normal in an instant, and said with deep meaning: "This matter is only the matter of the sixth sister from beginning to end, what does it have to do with me?" What's more, it's the sixth sister who will embarrass Mu Zhiling tomorrow, not me. ”
Besides, the facts are in front of her, no matter how much she thinks about Mu Zhiling, she can't reverse black and white.
Gao stared at it and sighed for a while: "Okay, as long as you don't let your father know, you also know your father's temperament." ”
Say no one, no one is allowed to brush his mind.
I still remember the scene when she wrote to Jiang five years ago and was learned by Mu Zongsheng, and she was almost strangled to death by him that day.
Rao has passed five years, and every time she thinks of this, she is still a little afraid.
Fortunately, Mu Zhishu arrived in Zhenzhou, and he didn't punish her.
Referring to Mu Zongsheng, Mu Zhishu realized that Mu Zongsheng was not there, and asked, "Mother, what about the father?" ”
Gao pointed to the light in the west chamber and said, "Your father is there, saying that he is seeing some important person, but who it is, he doesn't say, you must not disturb his affairs." It's been a busy day, so let's go back and rest. ”
Mu Zhishu left in response.
Passing by the light, I stopped for a while and left.
Inside the house, Mu Zongsheng was playing chess with a man dressed in moon-white brocade.
That man was Zheng Li.
Mu Zongsheng frowned and hesitated, but he was finally relieved, and stroked his beard and said: "Li Shizi is really blue, this kind of chess skill, the old man is willing to bow down." ”
Zheng Li stood up politely and said, "It's Lord Mu who cherishes his juniors and gives in everywhere, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for me to win this game of chess." ”
Mu Zongsheng got up and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Your father and I are old friends, you can call me Shibo." Today, it was the uncle's poor care that made Zheng Shi's nephew wait for a long time. ”
Zheng Li shook his head with a smile and said, "Since you are a junior, even if you wait for a night, you should do it." After that, he took out an unopened letter from his cuff and handed it to Mu Zongsheng: "My father asked my nephew to hand over this thing to you, and asked my nephew to convey his thoughts about you." ”
Mu Zongsheng hurriedly opened the letter, read it, was a little disappointed, suddenly looked at Zheng Li, and said, "Did your father tell you to bring anything to me?" ”
Zheng Li shook his head and said, "My father said that Xishu is a wild place, and rare things are not as good as those in Beijing. ”
Mu Zongsheng frowned, his eyes were a little stunned, but he tried his best to hold back.
Of course, he didn't want those strange things.
What he wanted......
Zheng Li hurriedly bid farewell to Mu Zongsheng, walked around the Ying Guo Mansion for half a circle but stopped, and looked up at the high courtyard wall.
With a strong tiptoe, he flew up and landed lightly within the courtyard wall.
Just as he turned around, he heard a clang in the room not far away, and he rushed straight over without thinking about it.
When I got closer, I realized that it was the sound of banging on the door.
To be precise, there is also the sound of the door opening.
He was about to turn around and leave, but he heard the man behind him: "Who is it?" ”
Zheng Li paused, but still quickened his steps to leave, regardless of the person behind him and shouted: "Brother Li......"
