Chapter 263: Retirement (1)
After Liu Qingsu and Liuhong Qingzhi talked, they said some odd things, and then Qingzhi and Liuhong went down to do things.
Originally, Liu Qingsu planned to test Liu Anzhen to see what Liu Anzhen was like. Speaking of which, Liu Anzhen is likely to be a reborn person, which makes Liu Qingsu feel that things are more complicated than she imagined.
So Liu Qingsu originally thought that more things are better than less things, and the matter is not clear, and if one more person knows, it will be more troublesome. So Liu Qingsu originally wanted to find out about those things slowly and quietly, but now Liu Qingsu feels that it is better to make plans early.
This is the previous dialogue between Liu Qingsu and Qingzhi Liuhong. Qingzhi is a smart person, and she guessed Liu Qingsu's thoughts.
Liuhong is indeed loyal to her Liu Qingsu, but she still owes some heat in dealing with people, especially in her temperament, she is a little too straightforward and fast-talking, these are originally Liu Qingsu is also happy to see, and there is such a person around him who is always lively.
But that's no longer the case.
Don't talk about the secret of the rockery in the house, let's talk about Liu Yuanyi's strange poisoning incident. Liu Qingsu also knew that her father was still investigating the matter, but there seemed to be no progress after half a year. Liu Qingsu felt that things were more complicated than she imagined.
Liu Qingsu recently flipped through the codex of Emperor Jingcheng given by Mama Zhou from time to time and read it several times. In the past six months, Liu Qingsu has walked in the palace, and the palace of the eldest princess of Yushan has been walked a few times, and the things in the garden have opened Liu Qingsu's eyes.
So Liu Qingsu had a faint feeling that her brother Liu Yuanyi's poisoning was likely to be related to the court.
Liu Qingsu couldn't interfere with these. No one would take the initiative to tell a twelve-year-old girl about the court.
It's a shame to say that Liu Qingsu got something from her second cousin-in-law Bai, as well as the power left to her by the Qi family, she still hasn't figured it out.
As for Zhuangzi's people, they originally wanted to arrange a few as helpers, but they have been tired of all kinds of trivial matters, and there is no progress at all.
What makes Liu Qingsu even more worried is that Liu Anzhen is really a troublemaker.
Liu Qingsu feels messy now, so he can only prepare for various things first. Liu Qingsu now only hopes that Liu Yuanyi will wake up sooner, so that Liu Qingsu will also have a foil to rely on. After all, this world is harsh for women, but broad for men. So many things are inconvenient for Liu Qingsu to do, and it is also good for Liu Yuanyi to help.
It is even more because of this that Liu Qingsu does not plan to make any moves against Liu Anzhen for the time being. After all, Liu Qingsu didn't want to do it. In particular, Liu Anzhen is likely to be a highly venomous snake, and the consequences of startling the snake are likely to be bitten by a poisonous snake. When the time comes, the gains will outweigh the losses.
Liu Qingsu also tested her from Liu Anzhen. Finally aroused her suspicions. Liu Anzhen's subsequent temptation can be regarded as cautious, if it weren't for the fact that she was already defensive against Liu Anzhen, coupled with Liu Anzhen's impatient temptation in the leisurely house before, Liu Qingsu was even more vigilant, Liu Qingsu would not have found out what Liu Anzhen had done.
Thinking of this, Liu Qingsu suddenly felt that three days was longer than the nearly half a year she had survived before.
It's just that Liu Qingsu didn't dare to be too anxious.
At this time, Liu Qingsu had no choice but to go to Lie Yixin Garden in person. It seemed that this would make her feel more at ease.
"Green plum, green tea, you two have been spending a lot of time these days. Take care of the eldest young master carefully. I'll tell you something first. You don't want to go out at will recently, you'd better stay in your brother's house and keep watch. I'll have you off in a few days. ”
Green Tea and Qingmei nodded.
Liu Qingsu said to Wenxing again: "Green Tea and Qingmei are responsible for taking care of the eldest young master in the near future, and you are responsible for not letting people who don't want to do it get close to the eldest young master's house."
Liu Qingsu paused for a while after speaking. He said to Wen Xing again: "As for the people who come to visit my brother in the courtyard, just say hello to them, and when someone from my grandmother's side comes, I will talk about the matter of the eldest young master in detail." But don't forget to talk about the recent changes of the eldest young master, mainly talk about the trivialities of the daily service of the eldest young master. ”
Wenxing didn't understand why Liu Qingsu said this. From the time Liu Qingsu made people boil the medicine again, Wen Xing felt that this second lady was weird. But because Wenxing was also anxious to hope that the eldest young master could recover as soon as possible, he also had faint expectations for Liu Qingsu's approach, and later Liu Yuanyi was really much better than before, and Wenxing obeyed Liu Qingsu's orders.
It's just that Wen Xing felt that Liu Qingsu didn't let him tell her about Liu Yuanyi's progress because he was afraid of ruining Liu Yuanyi's blessings, after all, Liu Yuanyi was originally going to be in a coma for a year, but now I heard that it is likely to be half a year. On the other hand, Wen Xing also thought about the worst, he wondered if Liu Qingsu's idea was that he was afraid that failure would lead everyone to empty joy, but it would add to the sadness.
But now that the half-year period is only a few days, Liu Qingsu's appearance still doesn't seem to intend to let others know a little bit, looking at it like this, it is estimated that Liu Yuanyi is sober and has to hide it, so Wenxing can't understand it.
A woman's heart has always been sensitive and careful. Wenxing's doubts, Liu Qingsu was naturally aware of it.
So, Liu Qingsu said: "I won't hide it from you, you are all the most important things around the eldest young master, and the affairs of the eldest young master cannot be known to others for the time being, and you also know the strangeness of the eldest young master's poison." You do everything first, and my brother will explain it to you when the time comes. ”
Wenxing listened to Liu Qingsu say this, and his heart was also a lot more settled, but it was always bad to question the master.
So Wenxing said: "Second Miss, don't worry, the slave will definitely do what you tell me."
Liu Qingsu returned to the leisurely residence with confidence.
It's just that Liu Qingsu didn't know what happened next, but it made her even more angry.
Liu Qingsu first counted his fingers when he was resting this day, and there were only two days left to wake up. Thinking of this, Liu Qingsu's heart was much more relaxed. So I went to bed early that night.
The next morning, Liu Qingsu got up early in the morning, groomed and tidied up, and then went to Chunhui Courtyard to greet Yu, and the two went to Qingfeng Courtyard together.
After everyone had a few words with the old lady, the old lady excused herself a little tired. The rest of them all went out of Seifu-in again.
Liu Qingsu didn't know that he would go again today, the second time in Qingfeng Temple.
At noon, Liuhong came in and said that someone from the prime minister's mansion had come, and he had brought a lot of gifts.
Liu Qingsu was wondering, although the Prime Minister's Mansion and Liu's Mansion were considered in-laws, what did it mean to bring a lot of gifts in the Prime Minister's Mansion? Just when Liu Qingsu was thinking about it, Liuhong said: "The Prime Minister's Mansion is still decent today. Our eldest young master has been poisoned and unconscious for half a year, and the prime minister's mansion only came to offer condolences a month later. I didn't even come back for a few days after that. Anyway, our eldest young master is also half a son-in-law in the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Liu Qingsu frowned unconsciously when he heard Liu Hong's words.
said that the matter of the eldest granddaughter from the elder brother and the prime minister's mansion had already passed the Nacai, Mingming, Naji, and Nazheng, if it wasn't for Liu Yuanyi, something had happened. After this scientific expedition, Liu Fu will ask for the deadline.
Originally, the two governments had finalized a good day and an auspicious day before. But thinking that that day was not far from the day of the scientific examination, in order not to distract Liu Yuanyi, he simply decided to set the date of the application after the scientific examination.
What Liuhong just said is also true. Speaking of which, it is not impossible for Liu Qingsu not to see it at all, after all, he is the elder brother of his in-laws.
But in the same way, Liu Qingsu is a woman again. As a woman, she knows that. The most important thing for a woman in the boudoir is arrogance. It's not about being pampered. Be arrogant, but have your own pride and reserve.
Therefore, although Liu Qingsu is also dissatisfied in his heart, he will not say it without hindrance like Liuhong.
So Liu Qingsu said: "No matter what, the Ran family is sincere. And this woman is already delicate. Our Liu Mansion is to marry a daughter-in-law, but the Prime Minister's Mansion will naturally not catch up with the daughter. There is no need to say that in the future. ”
After hearing this, Liuhong said: "Miss, don't worry, the slave knows." ”
It didn't take long for Chunxiang from Chunhui Courtyard to come over and say leisurely: "The old lady let people spread the word that someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion came, thinking that you and the eldest young master are brothers and sisters, so I asked the slave maid to ask if you want to go to Qingfeng Courtyard with her?" ”
Liu Qingsu didn't want Yu to let people look for her, although Yu asked Chunxiang to ask her if she wanted to go to Qingfeng Courtyard too, but Liu Qingsu knew that Yu actually wanted her to go with her.
Liu Qingsu didn't know why she would let her go with her, in fact, it was completely okay if she didn't go along with Yu's words. But because the Prime Minister's Mansion that Liuhong said just now brought a lot of gifts, Liu Qingsu was also very curious at this time.
So Liu Qingsu said to Chunxiang: "I'm tired Sister Chunxiang, wait a while, my change of clothes will come soon, you go to your mother to report first." ”
Who knew that Chunxiang said after hearing this: "Madame has already confessed, if the second lady goes, let the slave wait for the second lady to clean up and stop together." ”
Liu Qingsu didn't have a chance to say anything for a while, so he nodded. Then the belly and Liuhong said: "Go and let Zizhu come in and help me clean up, and you can also go and ask someone to pour a cup of tea for Sister Chunxiang, this time it will be dry in autumn, drink saliva to moisten your throat." ”
Chunxiang said to Liu Qingsu: "Thank you, second miss, slave." ”
Liu Qingsu went to the inner room first, and as soon as he sat down, he heard footsteps, Liu Qingsu hurriedly said to Zizhu: "Hurry up and help me comb my hair properly." In a moment, I will go to the front with my wife to meet the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
After hearing this, Zizhu said: "The slave maid will help you find a dress first, I remember that a few days ago, Jin Yige also sent a pink Xia Qian skirt, and the young lady is even more delicate when she wears a pink color at this age." ”
Liu Qingsu was in a hurry and said that he combed his hair first.
Fortunately, Zizhu is not confused, otherwise wouldn't it be in vain to comb your hair and change your clothes?
What Zizhu said was also in line with Liu Qingsu's intentions, speaking of which was to see Liu Yuanyi's Yue's family, Liu Qingsu was dressed up more coquettishly, and the prime minister's mansion was also more relieved. After all, no one wants to have a powerful sister-in-law.
Zizhu's craftsmanship is good, but with a cup of tea, Zizhu has been handed over to Liu Qingsu to clean up.
The color that Liu Qingsu usually wears is either purple or green, and Liu Qingsu has not worn such a fresh color. And Liu Qing's original whiteness, coupled with a pair of phoenix eyes, made Chunxiang see it for a while. Heart Dao, at such an age, you can see a charming and lovely appearance, if you grow up in the future, I don't know what kind of enchanting situation it will be?
"Let's go."
As soon as Liu Qingsu's words came out, he took Mama Wei and Liuhong and followed Chunxiang and hurried to Chunhui Courtyard.
At that time, the Yu family had already packed up, and when he saw Liu Qingsu coming, he said directly: "It's not too early, I won't let you sit down, let's go directly to Qingfeng Courtyard." ”
Liu Qingsu nodded.
On the way, Liu Qingsu didn't think about why the Yu family did this, and the closer he got to Qingfeng Courtyard at this time, the more unsteady Liu Qingsu felt in his heart.
Originally, Liu Yuanyi's marriage was naturally handled by the Yu family, but the old lady was alive and capable. And the Yu family is not only a stepmother but also a concubine, so Liu Yuanyi's marriage is actually a headache for the Yu family.
But I didn't expect that Yu's concubine was very clever in this matter, and within a few days, she went to the old lady to ask for guilt and said that she had not handled this, and she couldn't figure it out for a while, Liu Yuanyi was the first person in the house to marry, or a sister-in-law, so please ask the old lady to work partially.
The old lady was originally afraid that the Yu family would not be able to do things well and make the Liu Mansion lose its dignity in the future, but the Yu family was Liu Yuanyi's mother who was now in her eighth, so she didn't say anything on her face.
Yu's coming to her to take the blame also made her breathe a sigh of relief.
So the old lady said that she was letting Yu watch and learn from the sidelines.
Therefore, Liu Yuanyi's marriage has always been handled by the old lady.
Just when Liu Qingsu was still thinking about the past, Qingfeng Courtyard had already arrived in front of him, and Liu Qingsu hurriedly gathered his thoughts.
As soon as he entered the Qingfeng Courtyard, the Yu family saluted Mrs. Chai, and Liu Qingsu naturally followed closely.
After Mrs. Chai finished there, the Yu family and Mrs. Chai saluted each other again, and Liu Qingsu also saluted in a proper manner.
Mrs. Chai is actually a little uncomfortable with the Yu family, she is just a concubine, but now she is polite with her, and Mrs. Chai feels that her intention is correct.
But Mrs. Chai's eyes jumped when Liu Qingsu saluted. Mrs. Chai and Mrs. Chai are different, and Mrs. Chai actually has a faint trace of regret in her heart.
But Mrs. Chai knew very well that it was too late. Not to mention that he had already spoken to the old lady just now, he would not agree to say that he was in the Chai Mansion. (To be continued......)
