(619) The backyard is shallow and tentative
Lin Mengyao didn't stay in the Lotus Nunnery for too long, because she was worried about the situation in the Yao Mansion, so she only accompanied Ruan Qing for a while before leaving. It's just that after she left, a figure flew into the Lotus Nunnery with agility and went straight to Ruan Qing's residence.
What happened to Ruan Qing's residence, Lin Mengyao didn't know, with the sound of a squeaky carriage, she hurried to Yao's mansion.
Like the previous times, Qingquan checked the situation in the backyard and made sure that there were no idle people, so Lin Mengyao entered the backyard and prepared to go to the Hidden Pearls Pavilion. But he didn't want to, and halfway through the walk, he saw Yao Zhengxun in a pavilion, drinking tea with a faint expression.
The weather is getting cooler, especially in autumn at dusk, and the coolness can still invade the body. At this time, drinking tea in the pavilion looks quite weird.
Could it be that they are waiting for me here? Lin Mengyao became vigilant, and said in her heart that Meng Ai was a child after all, and there were always some things that she had more than enough to do.
After all, there was no evasion, Lin Mengyao walked straight to the pavilion: "Why is Cousin Xun drinking tea here at this time?" The weather is getting colder, but it hurts you! ”
Yao Zhengxun did not show too much surprise at Lin Mengyao's appearance, but stretched out his hand to signal him to sit down opposite.
"Isn't Sister Meng Yao also outside at this time?!" Yao Zhengxun glanced at Lin Mengyao deeply.
He went to the Hidden Pearls Pavilion today, originally looking for Dai Ruizhu, but he saw Meng Ai playing outside his door, so he stepped forward to take Meng Ai out for a walk, but he didn't want this kid to be very stubborn, and he refused to leave Lin Mengyao's room no matter what. Meng Ai refused to leave because he was worried that once he left, he would not be able to cover up for Lin Mengyao; But he didn't expect it. His stubbornness aroused Yao Zhengxun's suspicions.
Yao Zhengxun had some thoughts about Lin Mengyao, but since he refused to marry in the palace that day, he knew that it was impossible for him to marry Lin Mengyao. However, this will not make Yao Zhengxun suspicious of Lin Mengya, what really makes Yao Zhengxun suspicious of Lin Mengyao is the Yao family's attitude towards Yao Menglin.
Yao Zhengxun and Yao Menglin have been close since childhood, so they pay special attention to Yao Ziwen's attitude, so when he came in, he found that Yao Ziwen's attitude had changed greatly, and this change came from Lin Mengyao. What is this woman capable of? was able to make Yao Ziwen trust her so much. even put the happiness of the pearl in his palm in his hands.
Because of this, Yao Zhengxun paid more attention to Lin Mengyao again. Although I didn't find anything particularly important about this attention, I also knew that there were two more skilled people around Lin Mengyao - Qingquan and Ma Jie.
For clear springs. This is after Lin Mengyao entered the Yao Mansion. But he is very loyal to Lin Mengyao. Lin Mengyao also entrusted him with many things; As for Ma Jie, Yao Zhengxun was even more suspicious, this person was from Tonglu. And Tonglu and Sanyuan Hall (Lin Mengyao's birthplace) are 108,000 miles apart, and it is impossible for the two to know each other, but the relationship between the two is actually close.
Yao Zhengxun has a good impression of Lin Mengyao, even if this good impression comes inexplicably, he is still willing to believe her. After finding out that Lin Mengyao was not in the room today, he told Meng Ai not to let the third person know about it, so he came to this backyard to wait for Lin Mengyao.
"Sister Meng Yao, where did you go?" Yao Zhengxun poured Lin Mengyao a cup of tea and asked casually: "I heard that my sister was unwell, why didn't I know how to rest?" ”
These words revealed information to Lin Mengyao - he had already explored the Hidden Pearls Pavilion, and Lin Mengyao couldn't talk about any lies like he had just come out to relax.
Showing a little panic, Lin Mengyao had some worry and fear in her eyes: "Cousin Xun...... I'm in good health, and the so-called illness is just a pretext, and I'm going out of the house......"
Lin Mengyao's honesty was something Yao Zhengxun hadn't thought about, and he was stunned for a while.
"You're out of the house alone? It's inconvenient for your daughter's family to go out alone, so it's ...... for you to bring someone with you."
Knowing that Yao Zhengxun was tempting by this, Lin Mengyao said bluntly: "...... Some things are inconvenient ......"
As for the inconvenient things, Lin Mengyao decided to take advantage of Gao Qianxun. So he told Yao Zhengxun that he was going to see Gao Qianxun, but Gao Qianxun was still in the period of filial piety, and he was afraid that such behavior would be criticized, and the two of them were frivolous, so they were covered.
Yao Zhengxun's eyes shrank, and he felt a little strange in his heart, but thinking about what happened in the palace that day, he could only smile bitterly - it seems that what Lin Mengyao said that day was just a rejection of his pretenses!
Yao Zhengxun didn't pull Lin Mengyao to say anything, but told her to go back and rest early, so that she didn't really suffer from the cold. Lin Mengyao got up and retreated, but her heart was not calm, she would never think that Yao Zhengxun believed in her like this!
It turns out that Yao Zhengxun really doesn't trust Lin Mengyao.
As early as when Lin Mengyao came back, he had already sent his cronies to secretly inquire about Lin Mengyao's whereabouts, as long as that person came back, he would be able to know whether what Lin Mengyao said was true or false. If it was true, he believed her and waited to see what happened. If it is fake, he thinks it is time to tell Yao Ziwen some things, although Yao Ziwen is in a high position, he is afraid of the crisis of the grasshopper shaking the tree.
However, Yao Zhengxun has also thought about it many times: he has investigated Lin Mengyao several times, and he is suspicious; is as smart as Yao Ziwen, isn't he aware at all?
Yao Ziwen has always been deep, Yao Zhengxun can't see through it!
After Lin Mengyao left, Yao Zhengxun also went to his yard, but saw Aunt Ma sitting in the lotus pond in the courtyard.
"I've seen Aunt Ma, but I don't know what Aunt Ma is visiting, what are you doing?"
"Yo, it's a family, why are you so unfamiliar?" Aunt Ma smiled a little embarrassedly, "Can't I come to see you if there's nothing?" ”
Yao Zhengxun has no friendship with Aunt Ma, so he would not simply think that Aunt Ma really came to sit, and an aunt came to his yard, so not to avoid suspicion, after all, it was not good for him.
Yao Zhengxun's expression was faint, and he chased away the guests: "Aunt is loved, Xun'er is heartfelt." It's just that today I can't tolerate my aunt to stay for a long time, my father has arranged some things for Xun'er that need to be dealt with urgently, and Xun'er can't keep guests......"
was ordered to be evicted before they met, although Yao Zhengxun's words were tactful, but Aunt Ma's face was very unpleasant. However, thinking of the purpose of the recent days, she was also discouraged.
"I won't disturb your business, but I went to see your mother a few days ago, and I pitied her very much, and wanted to ask you a word for her......" Aunt Ma sighed a few times, as if she really pitied her mother's situation, and asked: "Xun'er, have you really forgotten your biological mother?" ”
Mother?
How could Yao Zhengxun forget!
It's just that he misses his biological mother's kindness, but he really doesn't know how to deal with her endless foolish actions! (To be continued.) )
