Chapter 142: Surveillance
After returning to the Xu Mansion, the two sisters parted ways in the small garden. After exchanging Geng posts, Xu Qijin was busy embroidering a mandarin duck playing in the water and a purse of giving birth to a lotus step by step, when the Du family sent the dowry gift to the door, according to the rules of the marriage of the new Chen Kingdom, she wanted to give back the two purses that symbolized the harmony of husband and wife and the blessings of many children to Du Dagongzi.
Xu Qirong felt that his brain was a little messy, and there were many things that needed to be sorted out.
As he was walking towards Lan Zhi Courtyard, Qiu Nong suddenly sighed, lowered his voice and said to Xu Qirong: "Fourth Miss will be home so soon." ”
Xu Qirong followed Qiu Nong's line of sight, and sure enough, he saw Xu Qiyu, who was taking the eye-catching maid, hurriedly walking forward, quite sneaky.
Xu Qirong's expression was awe-inspiring.
It's that she wants to be left.
Because she is reborn, Xu Qirong is not as competitive as in her previous life, and because she is protected by her sister and Princess Pingtai in this life, she is even more happy to be a carefree little lady in the boudoir.
She relied too much on the experience of her previous life, and if she wanted to save her sister, she only thought of gambling with her life when her sister was dying, and if she wanted to save her father, she only knew that she wanted Gao Bo to pay attention to her father's whereabouts, and wanted to make herself no longer notorious in this life.
Xu Qirong suddenly woke up, she was very wrong, she should have more confidence and capital than others when she lived one more life. But the fact is that she is still powerless in many things, and even what Xu Qiyu does is completely out of her control.
The direction Xu Qiyu went to was Shuiyuexuan.
Mrs. Qiao and Xu Qiyun now hate Xu Qiyu to death in their hearts, even if Xu Qiyu is favored by his uncle again. It is impossible to provoke their mother and daughter when the eldest uncle is not at home. Therefore, when Xu Qiyu went to Shui Yuexuan, he could only go to find his eldest uncle.
A cousin niece is so sneaky to find the eldest uncle! Xu Qirong looked at Xu Qiyu's back and sneered. Raise your feet and continue walking towards Lan Zhi Temple.
As soon as he returned to the Storm Tower, Xu Qirong instructed Qiu Nong: "Let Yu Xia be by my side during this time, you want to inquire about what the hell Xu Qiyu is doing!" No, don't ask, I'm afraid I'm going to startle the snake, you pay more attention to her whereabouts. Also pay more attention to the whereabouts of the eldest master. ”
If you just monitor a young lady, Qiu Nong has no pressure, but you have to monitor Master Xu. Qiu Nong was still a little hesitant: "There is a gap between the big house and our four rooms, and if the maid is accidentally discovered, the big master is only afraid that he will blame the fourth master." At that time, even if we go to the old lady, we can't be reasonable. ”
Xu Qirong shook his head: "Today is the day of the eldest master's rest?" ”
Qiu Nong thought for a moment: "August twenty-five. It's not the day of the big man's rest. The eldest lord is the seventh, eighth, and ninth three days of every decade. ”
"That's it." Xu Qirong sighed, "The mistake of the last time was not in our fourth room, today is not the day of the eldest uncle's Mu Xiu, the fourth sister went to Shuiyuexuan, and it is impossible to find the third sister and the eldest aunt, I think the eldest uncle is taking leave from the boss." The fourth sister went out earlier than us, how did she know that the eldest uncle was at home on leave today? ”
Qiu Nong was stunned for a moment, a little shocked: "Today is in Yuwang's Mansion." The fourth lady was obviously friendly with the Lady of the Prince and the fifteenth princess, and she felt strange at that time. Could it be that the old man pulled the line? I can't understand this, my daughter doesn't bother to think about it, but she spends so much time on her niece? ”
Yu Xia came in with a sewing basket, and just when she heard this, she pouted: "Who in the house doesn't know that the eldest master spoils the fourth lady now." I don't know, I thought the fourth lady was the daughter of the eldest master! ”
Of course, Xu Qiyu can't be Master Xu's own daughter, if it is really Master Xu's own daughter, she won't ignore it for more than ten years and suddenly shush and warm up at this time.
Qiu Nong looked around, walked straight to the door, poked his head out to look, closed the door, and turned around with a shocked expression: "The girl suspects that the eldest master is using the fourth miss?" But what is there for the fourth lady to take advantage of? Even the marriage of his own daughter has to be posted to the fourth lady! ”
Yu Xia was also busy saying: "You can't talk nonsense about this!" Girl, the big room and the fourth room are brothers with the same spirit in the end. ”
Xu Qirong sneered, and said in his heart, whoever is with him may be a brother, and the big house and the fourth room cannot be. She doesn't know what the evidence in her previous life is that everyone thinks that her father is not the Xu family, but if her father is really not the Xu family, the eldest man and her father are naturally not brothers.
"This Xu family, who does Daddy trust the most? I'm afraid that the first person my father will not be able to guard against is my uncle. In fact, Xu Tingjin's impression in Xu Qirong's heart in her previous life was still very good, but what happened these days, she became more and more unable to see through it. In his previous life, Xu Tingjin had never been so blue-eyed towards Xu Qiyu at all. After a pause, Xu Qirong said irrefutably, "No matter what the eldest uncle thinks, Qiu Nong, you just have to pay more attention, even if the eldest uncle really finds out and simply makes trouble, he can't force things to be planted on his father." ”
Qiu Nong was still a little hesitant: "But girl, monitoring the whereabouts of your own uncle, this is not good for the girl's reputation." ”
Because of his notoriety in his previous life, Xu Qirong has regarded reputation more than anything else in this life, otherwise he would not have had no choice but to take Xu Qiyu several times.
Xu Qiyu pursed her lips and smiled: "So you have to be careful, your girl's reputation is all on you." ”
Qiu Nong and Yu Xia were speechless for a while, and Yu Xia recited Amitabha: "Fortunately, the girl didn't let the maid go." ”
The gloating appearance was so angry that Qiu Nong stretched out his hand to tear Yu Xia's mouth. was making trouble, and suddenly heard someone knocking on the door outside, Qiu Nong hurriedly withdrew his hand, Yu Xia smiled, took this opportunity to straighten his clothes and ran to open the door.
But it's a little familiar little girl.
The little maid looked anxious: "Hurry, hurry, sisters are in a hurry!" ”
Yu Xia was confused: "Who is in a hurry?" Which yard are you from? ”
Seeing Yu Xia's unhurried appearance, the little maid sighed: "Mother Shen is sick and has a high fever, and she has already called someone to ask for a doctor, and my sisters told me to come and find Sister Qiu Nong quickly...... It's all nonsense! ”
Qiu Nong heard that Shen An's family was sick inside, and ran over in a few steps, looking anxious: "Why did you suddenly fall ill, how long did you have a fever?" ”
The little maid said: "The maid doesn't know, it's the sisters who asked me to run errands." ”
Xu Qirong had already walked out, and when he heard this, he hurriedly said to Qiu Nong: "Then you go quickly, serve your mother well, and I will let others do that thing first." Until your mother is well, you will leave me alone. ”
Shen An's family is the late Shen's companion room, and Qiu Nong's mother, hearing that Shen An's family is sick, Xu Qirong is also worried, and said: "You yourself grab twenty taels from the box containing money and take it to buy medicine for your mother, and those personal ginseng you collect, also pick two two or three hundred years old and take them to boil water for Shen's mother to drink." Go, go, go, go. Xu Qirong said three quickly.
"Thank you, girl," Qiu Nong was busy kowtowing to Xu Qirong, but was stopped by Xu Qirong, took something, and was about to leave, but they all ran away, ran back, and explained to Xu Qirong, "Don't let Yu Xia go to the thing I just said, one Yu Xia went, and no one else can take care of the girl, and second, Yu Xia is honest, maybe someone will catch the handle." You let Caiyue go, and the servant observed for some time, and he was a shrewd and sensible person. ”
Xu Qirong couldn't cry or laugh, it's all this time, she is still thinking about this! Hurriedly agreed to let her go quickly: "Take it to Shen's mother, just say that she is better, and I will go over to see her." ”
When Qiu Nong walked away, Yu Xia helped Xu Qirong into the house, and her tone was a little questioning: "Girl? ”
Xu Qirong thought for a while: "Go to Fenghua Courtyard and find Caiyue!" ”
She also had some impressions of the maid, the maids that Mama Gui bought were all good, and a few days ago, Qiu Nong was afraid that she would not have enough people at hand, so she deliberately selected a few of the maids in Fenghua Courtyard who were interested in training, since Qiu Nong said that Caiyue was a girl, it should not be wrong.
Yu Xia nodded, and personally went to Fenghua Courtyard to find Caiyue over.
Caiyue, this girl is really smart, Xu Qirong only needs to explain to her what to do, and she doesn't need to explain why she did it, this girl has already agreed with bright eyes.
Seeing Caiyue's excited face, Xu Qirong couldn't help but quip: "Don't you think that life is too boring, and you have been thinking about looking for some excitement, right?" ”
Cai Yue was not embarrassed, and said directly: "The maid listens to the words of her sisters in Fenghua Courtyard all day long, cleans the courtyard and prunes the flower branches, or serves the guests in Fenghua Courtyard, there is no future after all." The girl sent something to the maid, and the maid thought to herself, if she did a good job and won the girl's pleasure, maybe she could come to the storm building to serve the girl! ”
The corners of Xu Qirong's mouth twitched, and he heard Cai Yue say again: "Being a maid has the pursuit of being a maid, and the maid wants to be a big girl with a fox and a fake tiger." ”
Xu Qirong sneered, and Yu Xia smiled: "You have become a big girl with a fox and a fake tiger, so what should I do with your sister Qiunong?" ”
Cai Yue's eyes rolled: "Sister Qiu Nong and Sister Yu Xia are both blessed people, and they will both be the wife of the housekeeper in the future!" "He's also a talker.
Seeing Caiyue's clever speech, shrewd eyebrows and eyes, bold but not losing her duty as a maid, Xu Qirong nodded in his heart, thinking that he couldn't live in Fengbo Building all the time, but he was afraid that he would have to move back to Fenghua Courtyard at the age of thirteen at most. If this girl does this well, she can also be called over and stay by her side.
told Caiyue about this idea, and this girl was so happy that she bowed her head.
The matter was explained, but Xu Qirong's heart was not a little easier, but more dignified.
A few days ago, my father sold the shop Zhuangzi and distributed the silver tickets to her and her sister, which was quite a bit of a feeling of dealing with the aftermath. Later, when the ancestral hall was opened, with the intervention of Princess Pingtai, her father changed back to the way before, which made her think that things had taken a turn for the better under the intervention of Princess Pingtai.
Now that there is a matter of my sister and Du Dagongzi, Xu Qiyu's temperament has changed greatly, and Xu Qirong suddenly realized that something was wrong. (To be continued......)
