Chapter 61: Eccentricity (Seeking the First Order)

h2> Mama Xu led a middle-aged man in a gray cloth shirt into Yiqing Garden, walked to the door of the inner garden, asked the man to wait outside the door, and after a few words, she lifted the curtain and entered the house, and saw that Su was sitting on the soft couch doing embroidery work, and stepped forward and whispered: "Madam, the slave's brother is here and is waiting outside the door." ”

"Let him in!" Su Shi continued to concentrate on the embroidery work in his hand, and answered quietly.

Mama Xu asked her brother Xu Youfu to inquire about Mu Yunting's injury, and there must have been a result.

Xu Youfu saw that the Su family looked kind, and did not have the slightest frame of being the head of the house, but as soon as they met, he greeted him with a warm greeting, and his heart was naturally very moved, so he truthfully told the news he had inquired about: "Madam, it is true that the prince went to Youzhou this time to preside over the succession of the son of Tusi Urva, the son of Urva, to the prince, but during this period, he has been secretly investigating the cause of Urva's death. In addition, the injuries of the prince were not caused by riding a horse, but by being attacked on the way. ”

"Who dares to attack the Son?" Su Shi raised his eyes and asked calmly, the afternoon sun sprinkled on her temples through the window paper, and the red gold hollow crested hairpin flashed and flashed, reflecting colorful light.

"The villain doesn't know." Under that dazzling light, Xu Youfu didn't dare to raise his head again.

He's just a groom, and it's not easy to find out about that.

"Alas, Mrs. was heartbroken for the son, but I didn't expect the son to hide everything from Mrs. Mama Xu stood aside and sighed.

"Presumably he doesn't want me to worry." Su Shi smiled, rewarded Xu Youfu with fifty taels of silver at the moment, and asked Mama Xu to send him out.

Xu Youfu got the silver, thanked him repeatedly, and happily followed Mama Xu out.

"Fuzi, you remember, the truth about the prince's injury must not be told, even if you came today, you have to say that you came in to see me, and after Madame knew, she called you in to chat a few words." Mama Xu instructed.

"Don't worry, sister, I know." Xu Youfu swept the silver in his hand and said disapprerovitically, "It's not a big deal, I won't tell others, you, you're too careful." ”

"If you know, it's good." Mama Xu said, took out a money bag from her arms and stuffed it into his hand, "Brother Xun has also reached the age of marrying, you can take this silver, if there is a girl from a good family, I will ask someone to hire it, and I am still waiting to hold my nephew!" ”

Mama Xu has not been married since she married into Mufu with the Su family, and the monthly money in the house over the years, along with the rewards of the masters, has all subsidized the brother of her mother's family.

Xu Xun is Xu Youfu's eldest son, who has opened a silk shop in his hometown with his aunt's help over the years, and his life is quite passable.

Xu Youfu is a groom after all, and he doesn't earn much money.

"Sister, don't worry, when Brother Xun has a happy letter, I will definitely come to tell Sister SΓΉ immediately." Xu Youfu accepted the money bag with a smile on his face, "Sister should also be careful when she is on an errand in the house, don't care about the gossip of others in the outside world, so as not to get into trouble." ”

As soon as the two of them left Yiqing Garden, they saw a black shadow running from Qingxin Garden, and when the black shadow saw them, he turned around again and ran towards the back house.

The man was dressed in black, covered his face, and his skills were very agile, and he disappeared without a trace in three strokes.

After a while, Mu An led a few people to run out, shouting as he ran: "Come and catch the thief!" There is a reward for catching the second young lady! ”

As soon as Xu Youfu heard that there was a reward, he quickly ran towards the black shadow.

It's a really good day.

"Oh, you're coming back." Mama Xu was so anxious that she pulled him, but she didn't hold it, so she had to lift her skirt and follow her, just now he advised her not to care about other people's affairs, how could he forget it in a blink of an eye.

"Mama stays." Mu An was already panting and puffing in front of him, and asked, "Did Mama see a person in black running away?" ”

"Went to the back house." Xu Mama hurriedly raised her hand and pointed to the back house, and as soon as the words fell, she saw that Mu An was shouting that there was a reward for catching the thief, and at the same time leading the people to run away, worried that Xu Youfu would suffer a loss, so she also ran over.

Xu Youfu followed the man to the back house, and when he saw him jump into one of the courtyards, he also ran in, but saw that the man had disappeared in a blink of an eye.

At this time, Mu An led people to rush over, followed by many small servants who were eager to come to catch the thief and receive the reward, and saw Xu Youfu enter the house, and also broke in, shouting to catch the thief with great fanfare.

Mama Xu ran over panting and puffed, and when she saw that everyone had entered Mama Yang's yard, she quietly tugged the corner of Xu Youfu's clothes, and the two took advantage of the chaos to get out of the yard.

Mama Yang was sitting on the couch drinking tea, and when she heard a noise outside, she got up and went out, and saw many people rushing into the yard, shouting to catch the thief, and just wanted to sink her face and reprimand a few words, and then saw Mu An, who was the leader, suddenly had a smile on her face, helped the hairpin ring between her temples, and stepped forward to ask: "Mu An, what's wrong?" "After all, he is the person next to the prince.

"Mama Yang, just now a man in black clothes jumped over the wall into Qingxin Garden, and ran away when he saw me, I suspected that the person was a thief who stole things, so I chased it all the way here, I don't know if Mama saw it?" When Mu An saw Mama Yang, her eyes lit up, and she immediately greeted her as if she had seen a relative.

"If there is such a thing, then you have to look for it, but there are no outsiders in my yard, so you should go to other yards to look for it, right?" The corners of Mama Yang's mouth moved, and she said sneeringly, "A thief came in the mansion in broad daylight? What a daring thief that is! ”

The dignified Yongding Marquis Mansion entered the thief in broad daylight, who believes it when he says it.

Who knows if they're here to make trouble.

As he spoke, he glanced at the little maid beside him, and the little maid quietly retreated.

"Quick, you guys go look elsewhere, don't let him escape." Mu An rarely raised his eyebrows, and pointed to a few people around him, "Look for the rest in this courtyard and be careful." ”

"Mu An, I've been in the house all the time, no one has come in at all, so I don't have to search this house." Mama Yang saw that those people entered the ear room unscrupulously, even the grass room, so she stepped forward to remind.

"How's that going to work? Wouldn't it be dangerous if Mama didn't see it and let the man hide? Mu An led someone to rush in.

"Wait." Mama Yang was annoyed and ashamed, stood in front of everyone, and roared angrily, "This is my house, I said that if you don't need to search, you don't need to search, without my consent, I think which of you dares?" ”

"I dare." Shen Qingli walked in from outside the door unhurriedly with Bi Tao and Peach Branches, and glanced at Mama Yang coldly, "Mama Yang is not allowed to enter the house like this, isn't there something greasy in the house?" ”

"Second Young Lady." Mama Yang stepped forward with a smile and blessed her body, and said, "The slave maid heard that Qingxinyuan has just entered the thief, I don't know if the thief has been caught?" Where is it now? ”

Probably this second young lady is just taking advantage of this to make a fuss and attract attention.

"Don't you know where it is?" Shen Qingli turned to Mu An and said, "Why don't you go in and find it." ”

"Yes." Mu An smiled proudly at Mama Yang, waved at the people behind her, and took the lead in entering the house.

Bi Tao also followed into the house.

"Second young lady, the yard of this back house is quite well maintained." In the yard, Cui Zhi saw that there were not only many flowers and trees planted in this yard, but also two vegetable fields, although it was late autumn, but the vegetable fields were still lush and green.

In the corner, there is a grape, and under the green grape leaves, there are clusters of purple and red grapes.

The sweet smell faintly permeated the courtyard.

"Well, it's good, I really like to plant grapes in the yard." Shen Qingli smiled lightly, "It's time to eat grapes at this time, by the way, do you know?" Grapes can also make wine, and the wine is delicious. ”

Momozhi: "......"

Would it be good to discuss these at this time?

"Mu An, what are you going to do? Could it be that a big living person can still hide it in a cupboard? "Mama Yang

Seeing Mu An, he couldn't stop looking at the two cabinets in the corner, and his face changed instantly.

"If you can hide it, you have to open it and see it." Mu An glanced at a few people behind him, and everyone stepped forward to open the two wardrobes in front of them one by one, and the colorful clothes inside were suddenly presented in front of everyone.

The aqua-red fabric on top stands out.

"I just said I can't hide people." Mama Yang stepped forward angrily and stood in front of the cabinet.

Bi Tao pushed her away, quickly picked up the piece of fabric, took a closer look, and sneered: "Mama Yang, I said that this material looks so familiar, it turned out to be the piece of fragrant cloud yarn that the prince brought back from Youzhou last time, but I don't understand, how can it be here at Mama?" ”

"You guys, you are so despicable." Mama Yang suddenly came to her senses, her face flushed with anger, but she didn't know what to say for a while, she understood, it turned out that the people in Qingxinyuan came for this piece of fragrant cloud yarn at the beginning.

"If we talk about meanness, we are not as good as Mama." Shen Qingli walked in, took the piece of fragrant cloud yarn from Bi Tao's hand, looked at it, and said coldly, "I never knew that Mama Yang could still reach the sky with one hand in this mansion, and she could actually take my materials from the sewing room for herself, Mama Yang, you are so bold." ”

Mu An couldn't help but smile and retreated with someone.

"Second young lady, how dare the slave and maid do that, this material was given to the slave by someone else, not the second young lady." Mama Yang smiled wryly, touching the smile on Shen Qingli's face, and suddenly felt her scalp tingle, it has been so long since this happened, why did she turn it out and toss again, and thought it was over!

"I sent it." Xia walked in in a rage and said sneeringly, "What? Do younger siblings think that others can't have Xiangyun yarn? ”

As he spoke, he glared at Mama Yang fiercely.

It's really a thing that doesn't have enough to do and more to lose.

I can't even hide this piece of material.

"Young lady." Mama Yang saw Xia's and hurriedly greeted her like a savior, she originally wanted to take it back to the Gongfu, but I don't know why, the concierge has been checked tightly in the past two days, and she has to check the entry and exit, she can't take it out!

"It turned out to be sent by my sister-in-law, did the prince bring back two water-red fragrant cloud yarns?" Shen Qingli saw that the Xia family was confident, and secretly sighed in his heart that this person was not ordinary good......

"Humph! Can't our Guogong Mansion have such a fragrant cloud veil? Xia snorted coldly, turned his head to Chunyan and said, "Chunyan, you tell the second young lady, have our family been to Youzhou this year?" ”

"Yes." Chunyan Yingying stepped forward and looked at Shen Qingli seriously, "Second Young Lady, Xia Shizi went to Youzhou twice this year, and each time he will bring back Xiangyun Veil, if the Second Young Lady doesn't believe it, the slave will go and ask Xia Shizi to confront him." ”

"Good! Then I'll wait for your family to confront you. Shen Qingli saw that the master and servant sang and harmonized, and they had a very tacit understanding, so he ordered, "Bi Tao, you go to the Guogong Mansion with her." ”

"Brother and sister, you let your people follow Chunyan, are you afraid that they will collude on the road?" Xia's words were also direct.

"Hasn't Xia Shizi been to Youzhou?" Shen Qingli asked rhetorically, "Or is the sister-in-law weak-hearted?" ”

"The second young lady has misunderstood, how can our eldest young lady be weak-hearted! Peach girl, let's go! Chunyan glanced at Bi Tao expressionlessly and walked out of the house quickly.

"Go ahead!" Shen Qingli smiled at Bi Tao, she wanted to see how the Xia family could get this panic today.

"The eldest young lady, the second young lady." Mama Xu stepped in, looked at the two concubines with different expressions, and frowned, "Madam said, the two young ladies have something to talk about in Yiqing Garden." ”

Su Shi sat on the chaise longue, quietly listened to Mama Yang finish telling the ins and outs of the matter, her face sank, and she ordered: "Mama Xu, you go and call Mama Li to me." ”

Didn't she keep talking about loss last time?

It's all about things that don't have enough to accomplish and more to lose.

"Xia, let me ask you again, is this material really given to Mama Yang by you?" Su Shi glanced at Xia Shi and asked a little impatiently.

She has understood this matter in her heart, and she is annoyed for a while, if there is no diamond, don't do porcelain work, do it around, and in the end, if you can't choose yourself, it's better not to do it at the beginning.

"Of course, my mother's family is short of these few pieces of material." Xia replied disapplausively.

Even if he doesn't say it, he knows what to say when he wants to come to Xia Yunchu.

He's not stupid.

When Xia Yun first arrived at Yiqing Garden, when he saw this posture, he smiled and said, "Oh, is your family discussing any major matters?" Why are they all strained? Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the person and saw her sitting there quietly, drinking tea with her head down, as if everything in front of her had nothing to do with her.

If it weren't for the shallow magnolia fragrance that filled the surroundings, he wouldn't have felt her save.

Chun Tao said that her young lady likes magnolia.

It seems to be true.

"Shizi, you go up and see if this material is the piece of fragrant cloud yarn you brought back from Youzhou last time." Seeing Xia Yunchu, Xia Shi hurriedly stepped forward and said impatiently, "Otherwise, others still think that our Guogong Mansion can't afford Xiangyun yarn?" ”

Feeling the magnolia fragrance and his dreaming eyes around him, a heart has long been soft, Xia Yunchu decided to tell the truth this time, he stepped forward to look at the material decently, and looked at Xia Shi seriously: "Sister, when did I bring back such a color of Xiangyun yarn from Youzhou?" Are you mistaken? ”R1152
