Chapter 38: Clouds of Doubt (3)
Zaifu's house, backyard.
Shi Qingqing rubbed the eyelids that were kneaded together, and reached out to lift a corner of the peony bed curtain with red thread embroidery.
The strong light pierced Shi Qingqing's eyes, and he habitually backhanded.
How did you fall asleep?
"Xi'er?" Shi Qingqing called.
There was a door creak in the outhouse, and then Xi'er's familiar voice came, "Miss, are you awake?" ”
Xi'er walked into the inner room familiarly, hung the two ends of the bed curtains on both sides, and then went to help Shi Qingqing up.
"Is Father Zai back?" Shi Qingqing rubbed his eyelids and yawned and asked.
Xi'er looked at the way things looked and a trace of distress flashed in her eyes, "Lord Zai's father will not return until about five watches, and he will fall asleep at this time, and he said that he will come to Miss when he wakes up, so don't worry." ”
Shi Qingqing heard Uncle Zai's father say don't worry, but he became more and more uneasy, there must be something wrong with being busy so late.
However, Uncle Zai's father will be asleep, so how can he be disturbed as a junior.
Shi Qingqing sighed, becoming more and more melancholy.
Xi'er picked up the sandalwood comb carved with a beautiful woman on the table and combed Shi Qingqing's hair, today it is cold orchid oil, the fragrance is mellow for a long time, and it smells very good.
Seeing the teacher, Qingqing sighed, thinking, why does the young lady have more and more things on her mind?
I couldn't help but ask, "Miss, why have you been sighing lately, but what's wrong or you're feeling unwell?" ”
Shi Qingqing was asked by Xi'er, and suddenly came back to his senses, sighing This kind of high-depth action language will not appear on the slow half-beat young 'Shi Qingqing'.
"Huh?" Shi Qingqing was stunned.
Seeing that Xi'er was just concentrating on combing her hair, she smashed her mouth and said with a smile: "Maybe I've been staying in the house for too long, it's still early, and the kitchen meal must not be ready yet, let's go to the garden first, shall we?" ”
Xi'er has long been accustomed to the appearance of Shi Qingqing when she is good and sometimes bad, but she thinks that this is her eldest lady of the teacher's family, and she does not delve into it.
Seeing that Shi Qingqing was in high spirits, he followed the words: "It's okay, I'll go get a big piece for Miss." ”
Shi Qingqing smiled and nodded.
……
Xiao Liu carried a big box in his hand and followed behind Mr. Sha, the morning fog was very large, and the Father's Mansion was even bigger, and one was only afraid that he would lose it, Xiao Liu's kung fu was shaking his mind, seeing that Mr. Sha had disappeared around the corner, he hurriedly lifted the things in his hand, walked a few steps, and followed closely behind Mr. Sha.
Zaifu's Mansion and Jingfu are both located on Quyu Road, but Zaifu's father is the emperor's most favored courtier now, and the mansion is still bigger.
The rich and noble families in this mansion are not like ordinary people, but they are mainly based on rare shrubs and other green plants, but they make Xiao Liu's eyes dazzled and secretly staggered.
Xiao Liu was looking around, and when he caught a glimpse of some moss on the black jar in front of him, Xiao Liu couldn't help frowning, thinking, was it because he had just moved over and there were not enough people to clean it?
When I got closer, Xiao Liu was almost rude and screamed, ho--this shouldn't be the Shui Lan that the eldest prince talked about all day a few days ago, right?
Xiao Liu was trying to stop Manager Sha and ask carefully, if he could get one to go back, wouldn't he have made a great contribution? I don't care how the eldest prince gets rewarded!
The more Xiaoliu thought about it, the happier he became.
I didn't realize for a moment that Mr. Sha had stopped, and he slammed into it......
With the sigh of the sand manager, a crisp laugh came, although he was laughing at himself, but Xiao Liu felt that he had never heard such a good sound, Xiao Liu thought, better than the yellow bird lark, although he had never heard the song of those birds.
This was learned from the eldest son, and the eldest prince said that this is how to stand out.
"Miss Shi, this is the little guy next to the eldest prince, who said that he was here to send something to you." Chief Sand bowed in front of him.
The woman walked out of the morning mist, like a goddess of the Nine Heavens descending to earth, and in front of her eyes was a feather satin wrapped in a plain skirt with a silk silk embroidered edge, swaying with her walking, like a clear lotus about to bloom in an instant.
Xiao Liu didn't dare to look at it anymore, so he hurriedly lowered his head lower, and his voice was just buzzing, "See the eldest lady, the slave Xiaoliu, this is what my young master asked Xiao to send to you!" ”
Shi Qingqing saw the little guy in front of him who was about to lower his head to his neck, and couldn't help but be happy, he couldn't imagine that there was such a person around Jing Yi?
It's very inconsistent with his style.
Shi Qingqing glanced at Xi'er, and when Xi'er saw this, she was slightly blessed, so she took out a silver ingot from the pink kumquat purse on her waist and gave it to Xiao Liu.
After finishing, Fang Cai took the box in Xiao Liu's hand, and for a while, he might as well have some weight, and almost smashed his foot, so he asked with a smile: "What is here, it's weird and heavy." ”
Xiao Liu thought about it before realizing that the maid was asking herself, so she replied truthfully: "The little one doesn't know, the eldest prince doesn't let people see it." ”
Shi Qingqing nodded when he heard this, this is like Jingyi's style.
Then he said: "In this case, it will trouble you." ”
It was that nice voice again, and Xiao Liu's face suddenly turned red, "Don't dare, since the thing has been delivered, the little one will retire." ”
Shi Qingqing replied casually, then turned his head and asked Mr. Sha on the side, "Sha Bo, is Uncle Zai's father awake?" ”
Mr. Sha bowed down and replied: "No, if Miss Shi has an emergency, the old slave might as well go and ask ......."
Shi Qingqing heard this, and hurriedly waved his hand, "Huh? No, no. ”
Xiao Liu suddenly realized at this time, and his head buzzed, Miss Shi?
Could it be the stupid and ugly Miss Shi of the legend?
No way... How is it different from the rumors.
Xiao Liu sighed secretly in his heart, such a beautiful voice with such a wonderful figure actually grew on the body of the eldest lady of the Shi family? Xiao Liu was very curious in his heart, and wanted to sneak a look at what this Miss Shi looked like.
But he heard Sha Bo say, "The old slave has retired." ”
Shi Qingqing said lightly.
He pulled Xi'er and walked to the side road.
Xiao Liu raised his head and couldn't see Shi Qingqing's fuzzy back, and couldn't help but be annoyed, blaming himself, he was shy just now.
……
"Miss, Xi'er go and put things back in the courtyard, does Miss want to go shopping again?"
Shi Qingqing thought to himself, it was really inconvenient to carry a heavy thing, so he said, "Well, it's okay, let's go!" ”
Xi'er hurriedly responded and walked back, but at the end, she was not very relieved, and advised: "Then Miss, you go around here by yourself, don't go far, and don't go out of the house!" ”
Shi Qingqing replied expressionlessly: "Oh" and looked in front of a bush like auspicious clouds in the aisle.
Seeing this, Xi'er shook her head, Miss will be confused when it comes to trivial matters, but Miss finally has the interest to come out for a walk, so naturally she can't go against it.
I just thought, go back and come over quickly.
……
Shi Qingqing took a deep breath of fresh air, surrounded by mist, shrubs looming behind the mist, like a heavenly Yao Pond.
Shi Qingqing couldn't help but think of when he was a child, he once dressed up as a fairy in a bed sheet, and then was beaten by his mother so much that he didn't even know his mother......
Shi Qingqing laughed when he thought about it, and walked deeper with a smile.
Under the foot is the stonemason polished exactly the same bluestone path, a corner of the wall led a clump of evergreen vines, occasionally the wind passes, only the sound of the leaves shaking, rustling, next to the winter is also green grass, mixed with a few unknown small flowers, from a distance, there is a bit of eye-catching spirit.
Shi Qingqing couldn't help but move and walked along the little flower.
Lifting the hem of the clothes is only a few steps away, looking closely, it is just a very ordinary flower, the flower blooms with five petals, the color is the same, it is rare to be able to bloom strong in winter, stealing the limelight of the four gentlemen in this garden, it is not easy.
Because of this thought, the more the flower looked, the more beautiful it became, and Shi Qingqing thought that when he returned to the master's mansion in the future, he would definitely ask his uncle for some back.
"This brother, please help me spread the word, I really have something important to see Lord Zai!" A middle-aged woman's voice came with a pleading voice.
Shi Qingqing, who was originally enjoying the flowers, trembled in fright, and couldn't help but follow the prestige.
"What I told you is true, Lord Zai's father didn't return until he was about to touch Yin last night, and it has been like this for several days, so I will only fall asleep at this time, how can I help you report it, or you can wait a little longer, and wait until noon." A man who looked like a nurse looked helpless and said sincerely, and there was no other party who was just a small person who was promoted to the door and directly rejected it.
Shi Qingqing listened to it, and gave birth to a little appreciation, thinking that the people who came to the house were all trained, and there was not much difference between them and Uncle Zai's jealousy and hatred and revenge for the people.
"Yes, yes, what this brother said is reasonable, but I really have something important to ask my father for, and please ask this brother to be accommodating!"
"This is my family's own dried dates, or this brother will take it to taste, this is a little bit of our family's heart......"
Before the middle-aged woman finished speaking, she was interrupted by the nursing home, "Why don't you understand, I don't want your things, and it's not that I won't help you report, I just hope you wait a little longer, okay?" The nurse thought that he had already told the middle-aged woman a few times, and when he saw that the middle-aged woman was still persevering, he couldn't help but be a little anxious, and his voice was a little higher.
When the middle-aged woman who was already inferior heard this, she thought it was so bad that she was disgusted, and she actually cried.
"I know that I am a farmer, and those officials look down on me and refuse to help me, but I heard that my father is a good official......
Shi Qingqing's face was expressionless and ready to turn around and leave, it was not that Shi Qingqing was cold-blooded, but Shi Qingqing felt that the nursing home had said very clearly, besides, this was the Zai's father's mansion, not a place where she could meddle in her affairs casually, every day there were many people like this peasant woman who came to the door to shout grievances, if she had to take care of it, she couldn't control it.
"Please, this brother, my daughter and my daughter Begonia died unjustly! Please, please, big brother! The thud of his head hitting the bluestone slammed into people's hearts.
Shi Qingqing's footsteps paused, and he was shocked in his heart, Begonia?
Before Shi Qingqing had time to think about it, his body had already reacted before his brain, and he ran in the direction of the peasant woman.
