Chapter 124: Clues
Ruosheng was stunned, put down his chopsticks, and asked, "What do you say?" ”
Su Yu picked a sugar-soaked green plum and handed it to her, and when she reached out to take it in a daze, Fang said slowly: "What is the situation in Yongding Bofu, you naturally know better than me." ”
"I don't know much." Ruosheng glanced down at the green plum he was pinching in his fingertips and shook his head. Really thinking about it, she hasn't known about the affairs of Yongding Bofu for a long time. After the Lian family fell in the previous life, the Duan family stood by and watched, Hugh said that he reached out to pull her, but he didn't even look at her more, but he didn't fall into the well and then beat her into the infernal purgatory. Although, the life she lived later was no different from being in purgatory.
Since then, she has never seen anyone from the Duan family.
In the blink of an eye, it is years.
And when she returned to Xuanming for the seventeenth year, because of the events of her previous life, she was disgusted with the Duan family, and wished that she had never had such a foreign family at all, so she only responded to her father's words when her eldest aunt held a spring banquet in the spring, and went once, and after coming back, she expressed her thoughts with her aunt and never went to the Duan family again.
What the situation in Yongdingbo's mansion was, she couldn't remember what she knew.
She paused slightly, lowered her voice and said, "But after returning to Beijing, I did order someone to inquire about some things in private. ”
According to the account book of Liu Tingshi, at least at that time, the bird slave was indeed in the hands of her eldest uncle Duan Chengzong, whether it is still there or not, it is a very useful clue. However, she had little impression of her uncle, who was going to inherit the title one day.
Her mother-in-law, who died young. Before leaving the cabinet, he was not a favored person when he was in his mother's house, and his relationship with his brother was very dull.
When she arrived, firstly, her biological mother died as soon as she landed, and secondly, her surname was Lian, and she couldn't even have a Duan surname, so she went to Duan's house, which was a guest, not a homecoming.
Regardless of whether it was her maternal grandparents or grandmothers, it was always her aunts or cousins who received her, as for several uncles. I don't even see one side of the ordinary.
At the same time, she has never been able to remember people. Which one is the eldest uncle and which one is the younger uncle is often confused, and those few are not so willing to see her. So now, when Ruosheng wants to recall the personality of the uncle of the Duan family. All that's left in my mind is a blank slate. Don't say it's human. I can't even remember the tone of my speech.
But she knew, and everyone in Gyeonggi knew that Duan Chengzong, the prince of Yongding Bofu, was a righteous gentleman.
Neatly dressed. A dignified gentleman.
Although Ruosheng didn't like the Duan family's style of behavior, and he didn't think that his uncles could really be decent gentlemen, he never thought that one day he would find that they were not well-dressed gentlemen, but beasts dressed in the skin of gentlemen.
The dancing girl from Dongyi, even in the eyes of a businessman, is not a person, at best she can only be a plaything.
And the daughter born to Dongyi Wuji, a child with different eyes who can be bought and sold by wealth, can't even be called a plaything...... To them, it's just a thing......
As long as he thinks of Uncle Duan's appearance of going to meet people with a gentle and elegant appearance, he can't help but feel cold in his teeth, cold in his heart, cold all over his body, and almost tremble.
"He's a perfect guy." Her voice faded, but her tone became cold and hard, and her words clearly seemed to be good, but there was no hint of praise.
Su Yu smiled, and a layer of coldness was enveloped between his eyebrows: "Can't you find out anything?" ”
Ruosheng gently took a bite of the plum in his hand, his mouth was shengjin, sweet and sour, his mood was inexplicably relieved, and he bowed his head slightly: "Yes, there is nothing wrong with it." Inside, he has only one wife and one concubine in his family, and he has respected each other with his wife for many years, and his husband and wife are harmonious and filial to his elders; Outside, he is known as a virtuous person, has a harmonious relationship with his colleagues, and never grudges with others. Good style, no prostitution, no gambling, no fighting. Write a good hand without mentioning it, and he also has a lot of experience in painting skills, and one of his calligraphy and paintings is also said to be a rare masterpiece? ”
The corners of Su Yu's mouth curled slightly: "Your work is not all in vain, his calligraphy and painting are indeed very famous." After a pause, he added, "But his paintings, in real terms, are no more than Er'er." ”
The tone is flat, but it means insolence.
This changed to others, Ruosheng would definitely sneer at two shameless sentences, but the person who said this sentence in front of her was Su Yu, and she had nothing to say.
Su Yu said: "He will return late once every half month." ”
Ruosheng was stunned, "Every half month? ”
It hasn't been long since they returned to Beijing, but the word "every" has to be taken out at least three or two times.
She hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "How long have you been secretly checking on him?" Between the words, she secretly thought, this must be more than a month.
Unexpectedly, as soon as her voice fell, she heard Su Yu answer herself calmly, "It's been nearly half a year." ”
That is, almost six months!
Ruosheng gasped and blurted out in surprise: "Is it really something that can sue me?" ”
If it's something she shouldn't have heard, then hurry up and stop it, talk about this thing, it's wrong to say more, it's wrong to listen more, if you know something you shouldn't know, who can have good fruit to eat?
Su Yu glanced at her casually, ate a sugar-soaked plum, and said, "What you told me, is it something that you can tell me?" What's more, the big picture counts. ”
If you think in a daze, this is also true.
He knew that something was wrong with her, and there were many things hidden in her mind that the world did not know, and what was there to talk about between them?
She breathed a sigh of relief: "Master Su really understands the righteousness and is very ......"
"Naturally, what can and can't be said must be very clear in the hearts of the three girls." He leisurely interjected a sentence, and then said with a gloomy expression, "It's not easy to kill people, but it's definitely not difficult to kill you." ”
Ruosheng made him look frightened, and just wanted to nod honestly and say that he knew it, but suddenly wondered what he had just said seemed to be wrong, and then suddenly stared at the apricot eyes.
Isn't she human?!
However, in front of Su Yu, she didn't dare to point to his nose and ask back, so she had to turn her face away and cough dryly twice, and asked the main point: "Since it has been half a year, there must be nothing wrong with returning late every half month, but I already know why he returned late, and every time it happens to be half a month apart?" ”
"Every half a month, the driver who gave him the car would be replaced by another person, and the road he took that day was definitely not the way he usually returned to Yongdingbofu, but specially circled." Su Yu explained, "This was not a big thing in the first place, but after more than half a year, it has become a very interesting thing." ”
Speaking of the back, the timbre of the young Qingyue sank slightly: "He is very cautious and usually does not show his feet, so it was not until he was about to leave Beijing to go to Pingzhou that I knew that he made a detour every time, in order to stay somewhere for a while." ”
From the outside, it was just a very ordinary little house.
It was quiet, and there was no noise at all.
The lantern hanging under the eaves in front of the door, I don't know when it was hung, not to mention the old color, there is even a thin layer of ash on it, as if no one has lit it for a long time.
The house seems to be uninhabited.
If it hadn't been for Duan Chengzong's many times, ordinary people would never have thought that there would be people in this house.
"That house is only two entrances, and it is really not big, but there is an embroidery building in the northwest, and there is a mystery hidden in it." Su Yu told her little by little what he was looking for, "But the people nearby have never seen the embroidery building lit up." ”
The building is high, the windows are narrow, and it is not easy to see even if there is a figure walking around, but it is always necessary to hold the lamp at night.
There is a lot of weirdness in that house.
Ruosheng only listened to this, and his heart trembled: "Are you suspicious, where is the finch slave?" ”
"It's like frost, and it's like frost in that account book." Su Yu groaned slightly, "The appearance of that house is very close to the days recorded in the account book. ”
So, nine times out of ten, that's it.
It's just that if you haven't seen anyone with your own eyes for a day, this matter is still in suspense.
Su Yu knew it, and Ruosheng also knew it in his heart.
After hearing this, she thanked her with a straight face: "Thank you Lord Su for your help!" ”
She may find out about these things by herself, and she may be able to find out one day, but that day must be very far away.
This thank you is a must.
Su Yu seemed to have expected her to be like this, and only said, "No thanks, but by the way." But ......," he dragged out a long tone and raised an eyebrow, "how about keeping an account?" ”
Ruosheng was thinking about the matter of the bird slave when he heard this and blurted out: "Remember." ”
After finishing speaking, she reacted and asked, "Bookkeeping?" ”
Su Yu leaned forward, pushed open the small window and glanced out of the carriage, and smiled slightly: "The kid who asked said it well, human relations are nothing more than that." ”
I'll help you, and you'll have to pay me back sooner or later.
He withdrew his gaze, his smile faded again, and finally became his usual indifferent appearance, and said, "The event is about to start." ”
"Yes, it's hard to come out once, so let's go and take a look." Ruosheng patted the fine white frosting on his fingertips, and looked back at him, "Don't forget Ming'er, just write down this account?" ”
Su Yu looked at her twice, and suddenly said, "It's good to remember it." ”
"Then keep it in mind!" Ruosheng bent his eyebrows and turned away with a smile.
Just about to get out of the carriage, something suddenly rushed at her feet, she was startled, smiled and lowered her head to look, and teased: "Follow me?" ”
Yuan Bao rubbed her face against the hem of her skirt, rubbed and rubbed, but still retreated, and gently "meowed", as if reluctant and helpless.
Su Yu said indifferently: "If you want to go, you can go." ”
"Meow woo ......" Yuan Bao heard this, and immediately turned around and stuck to his side, looking up at him flatteringly.
Ruosheng couldn't help but smile on his cheeks, and finally got out of the carriage.
Hu Qiuniang and Honeysuckle immediately greeted her.
Honeysuckle went to talk to Su Yu, and Hu Qiuniang came to ask Ruosheng: "Girl, are you going back to the painting boat now?" (To be continued......) R1292
