Chapter 43: Scheming
"After this, the busiest thing in the house is the Su family, this ushering is the most pestering, Aunt Mei can't be idle, she is busy with the wedding dress or something, when you come back this time, I will go and take Aunt Tian back from the Zhuangzi to serve you!" Huangfu Zhengse said, "She has been in the Zhuangzi for so long, she must know what is wrong. ”
This Tian clan is good everywhere, but he has an unforgiving temper, and he has to find out that you are wrong with me, but I don't know that there are many things in this deep house that do not need to be distinguished from your fault with me.
"Do as your mother commands." Mu Changyuan naturally didn't have any opinions, "When my son comes back, I'll pick her up by the way." ”
Aunt Tian is not a maid in the house, but the daughter of a shopkeeper in Huangfu's Zhuangzi, and when the shopkeeper was dying, he entrusted his daughter to Huangfu's family.
The Huangfu clan originally wanted to find Aunt Tian to be a housekeeper, but she had no choice but to fall in love with Mu Changyuan and took the initiative to say that she was willing to be a concubine for Mu Changyuan.
Mu Changyuan originally didn't agree.
But Aunt Tian was a master who went all the way to the black, and she just found an opportunity to climb into Mu Changyuan's bed.
The Huangfu clan saw that the deceased Tian shopkeeper had worked hard for the Mu family for many years, so he had to respond.
Although Aunt Tian has a strong temperament, she is the best among several wives and concubines.
"This time I went to Jingzhou, after handling official business, I must come back early, don't miss your father's sacrifice day." The Huangfu clan repeatedly instructed.
"It's only three or five days, and I'll be back soon." Mu Changyuan responded, and when he saw that the Huangfu clan had no other orders, he retreated.
When I returned to the house, I saw Su Shi wearing a middle coat, holding a cloth towel and twisting her long wet hair, a woman under the candlelight, with black hair and a shawl, which had a unique style, although it lacked the innocence of a young woman, it was a little more elegant and steady that a ** person should have.
He looked at her, his heart was hot, he stepped forward to take the cloth towel in her hand, and said softly, "I'll help you." ”
Su Shi looked at the still personable man in front of him, smiled, and obediently handed him the cloth towel.
In the past, when she first got married, he would often help her twist her hair, and he said that her hair was the most beautiful hair he had ever seen.
After twisting their hair, the two went to bed to rest.
In the curtain, he hugged her, wrapped his big hand around her long black hair, and whispered in her ear: "Xianniang, Erniang is preparing to get married, and the house will be busy for a few months, so my mother lifted the Mei's grounding and asked her to help Erniang prepare the dowry, and when I come back this time, I will bring the Tian family back to help you share some affairs." ”
In the dark night, she was silent for a moment, and then answered softly, "Okay." ”
He smiled, looked down and kissed her tenderly......
On the second day after Mu Changyuan went to Jingzhou, the Huangfu clan took the Yu family and the big maid named Peony and more than a dozen second- and third-class maids from Muyingtang to Lingxiao Temple.
Lingxiao Temple is in the western suburbs of the capital, and it is only an hour's journey from the capital, not far away.
Muyingtang only left Mama Chu and a first-class maid named Peony and a few sweeping mothers-in-law to take care of the flowers and plants in the yard.
The huge Hou Mansion seemed to be quiet all of a sudden.
Xia sat on the big kang by the window and watched Chunyan skillfully tie the knot, secretly sighed that her hand was skillful, and looked at the pattern on her hand, and threw it aside in annoyance, this month's Kwai Shui really came again, if she let that shameless nonsense, when would she get pregnant?
At this time, a little maid in a pink dress and a white dress walked in and mysteriously stepped forward to report: "Young lady, the slave maid just saw Bi Tao come back." If she didn't guess wrong, the eldest young lady was very concerned about the things in the second young lady's yard.
"Little Sparrow, are you sure that Chun Tao didn't come back?" Sure enough, Chunyan stopped, glanced at Xia, and asked casually.
"The slave only saw her come back alone." Seeing that Xia was looking at him quietly, Xiao Que hurriedly added, "That Bi Tao seems to be in a hurry, as soon as she entered the door, she hurriedly ran to Qingxin Garden, and almost bumped into the red embroidery in the sewing room." ”
"Got it, go down! When I see someone from Qingxinyuan in the future, you have to stay away, but don't hit you. The corners of Xia's mouth curled slightly.
"Yes." The little finch stepped back in response.
"It seems that my cousin is indeed favored in the Wang family, and the matter is said to have been accomplished." Xia smiled meaningfully, and the unhappiness of Shicai disappeared into the clouds in a blink of an eye, looked at the orange sunshine sprinkled outside, and said in a good mood, "Go, accompany me to the Gongfu of the country, I'm afraid that the letter from Jingzhou has already arrived." ”
The more unlucky others are, the happier she is, why does she always suffer in everything.
In the past, when she was in her mother's house, she felt that her biological mother loved her sister Wanyue more, and often ignored herself, but now, when she arrived at the Hou Mansion, all the people were obviously biased towards the Shen family, and when she thought about it, she felt that her heart was congested, in terms of background, in terms of appearance, which one of her was not the one in Qingxinyuan, and the Shen family was not able to play a guzheng or something, what was the big deal.
The master and servant returned to the Guogong Mansion with easy steps, and it was good that their mother's house was close.
"Young lady, go and save Sister Chun Tao! If she had a good character, with her sex, then she really wouldn't be able to live. As soon as Bi Tao saw Shen Qingli, she knelt on the ground and cried.
A few days ago, she and Qingshan hurried back to Jingzhou, the Wang family originally promised to hand over the silver with one hand and release the other hand, but when they paid the silver, the Wang family said that Chun Tao escaped halfway, and they didn't know where they went.
A lie is clear.
Chun Tao's father and mother naturally don't believe it.
Bi Tao had to ask someone to ask around, only to learn that Chun Tao was in the two days they arrived in Jingzhou, and the Wang family had already found someone to sell Chun Tao.
The man kindly reminded that most of them were brought to the capital, because the man once said that there are many ** in the capital, and the selling price is good.
Now, Aoyama is looking for his sister on the street one by one.
When Peach Branch and Cuizhi heard this, their faces also changed, which means that Chun Tao was sold to **......
When Shen Qingli heard this, he was also anxious.
She has no relatives in the capital, and it is too difficult to find someone, but this matter is not trivial, and she can only ask Mu Yunting for help now.
It's just that he just accompanied the Huangfu clan to Lingxiao Temple in the morning, and I heard Mu An say that they will come back tomorrow.
Lingxiao Temple is located in the western suburbs of the capital Qilin Mountain, more than an hour away from the capital, Su went to Ruyi Building because of something and was not at home, Shen Qingli couldn't wait for him to come back, so he took his pair of cards to the gatehouse to ask for a carriage, planning to go to Lingxiao Temple to find Mu Yunting.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw a young man hurriedly turning over and dismounting, and when he saw Shen Qingli, he stepped forward and bowed: "Second sister-in-law, is my mother at home?" ”
Shen Qingli knew that this person must be Lang Jun of the Hou Mansion, but he didn't know who it was, seeing that the other party looked hurried, he hurriedly said: "Mother is not at home, she said that she went to Ruyi Building." ”
"Fifth Young Master. Peach Branch and Bi Tao recognized each other, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
This man quietly ran away from home a few days ago, why did he suddenly come back today?
Mu Yunqi didn't say a word, quickly turned over his horse and walked away.
The three of them couldn't help but look at each other, what was it that was so anxious?
