Chapter 64: The Insider

Liu Ke recalled Yan Jie's expression, and couldn't help but secretly wonder: Could it be that this Yan Ring knows something, and this time he is deliberately trying to help himself?

She felt a little amused by her thoughts, and shook her head to stop thinking about it.

When Yuye returned, it was almost noon.

The road was dusty, and a small face was a little red from the cold.

After she entered the door, she saw Liu Qing waiting on her left and right, so she took out the stack of rice paper she was holding in her arms and put it in front of Liu Ke, and replied, "Miss, see if this kind of paper is suitable?" ”

Liu Ke was originally sitting by the stove reading a book, but after listening to Yuye's words, he got up and walked to the table and said, "Bring it to me to see." ”

Yuye spread the tortoise-patterned rice paper on the table.

Liu Ke picked up the pen and wanted to try it, but the pen in his hand was dipped on the inkstone, and he smiled first: "Since I got up in the morning, I have touched the ink there, but now I am afraid that it is frozen, and Yuye will take it to another room to warm up and come back to study the ink." ”

Yuye was about to go out, but was stopped by Liu Ke again, "Come back, just came back from outside, let's warm up in this house first." With that, he put the pen down.

Liu Qing, who was standing behind her, said, "Let Yuye serve here, and the slave maid goes." After saying that, he took a strip of ink and went to another room.

Liu Qing walked out of the door, and as soon as the thick stone blue cotton curtain fell, Liu Ke lowered his voice and asked, "Has the letter been delivered?" ”

Yuye took a step forward and said softly, "It's delivered, and Brother Wu has also opened it and read it." ”

Liu Ke nodded, walked out from behind the table, and said, "Okay." ”

"Butβ€”" Yuye said hesitantly as he followed behind Liu Ke.

"But what?" Liu Ke asked a little nervously after listening to Yuye's words.

Yuye didn't know why Liu Ke sent the letter to Wu Yi, and she didn't know what was written in the letter, but she found that after Wu Yi read Liu Ke's letter, her face was a little melancholy, so she guessed that it was not a good thing, so she was very careful when she returned.

At this time, she saw Liu Ke's nervous face, and said truthfully: "Brother Wu asked the slave to return to the eldest lady." The man is gone. ”

After Liu Ke heard this, he suddenly felt a little lonely and asked, "Did he see the picture I drew?" ”

"See, Brother Wu didn't say anything." Yuye replied in a low voice.

Liu Ke waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go down." With that, he went straight into the inner room. Disappointed, he slumped on the bed.

After Liu Qing entered the door, he saw that the rice paper was still spread on the table, but Yuye was not in the room, so he walked to the door of the inner room with light steps, and saw that only Liu Ke was crooked on the bed facing in, and he couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

She gently placed the warm ink on the table, and her eyes fell on the rice paper on the table.

Her grandmother used to be close to the old lady, but later met a bandit on an errand and was killed by the bandits.

Her grandmother was a very literate person, and she knew a little bit about it.

So when her eyes fell on the rice paper on the table, she could see at a glance that it was the turtle pattern old paper from Wenxuan Pavilion.

Liu Qing was puzzled. He didn't show anything on his face, and quietly retreated.

Before lunch, Qiuping, who was beside Han, came with two little girls.

It turned out that after the old lady Liu Jiafu sent away the Yan ring, he called Liu Xu and Han to personally order. Later, Liu Ke devoted himself to worshipping Buddha in Xiuzhu Garden, and all those who belonged to the dragon and the tiger in the house were not allowed to enter the Xiuzhu Garden, and Liu Ke was not allowed to see the people who belonged to the dragon and the rat.

After listening to the old lady's words, Han whispered for a long time: "As far as my daughter-in-law knows, there is no dragon in our house, only the old lady is a tiger." ”

After Liu Jiafu heard this. slapped his head and smiled: "Okay, that's what I'm talking about, let Ke'er not meet the old woman in the next two hundred days." ”

"The old lady has a deep relationship with Ah Ke's ancestor and grandson, I'm afraidβ€”" Han's words will not be said here.

She knew that the old lady was in front of the old lady, and she looked powerful from the outside, but in fact, the old lady was not the old lady's opponent at all.

The old lady always looks a little lustful in front of the old lady.

Han was afraid that the old lady would confess. The old lady didn't take the matter seriously at all, so she said it first.

After Liu Jiafu listened to Han's words, his beard curled, and he glared: "What are you afraid of, is it what I commanded." The old woman still dares not to listen, you don't have to worry about her, I'll tell her myself. ”

Han didn't say anything after his goal had been achieved.

I went down with Akihei.

Out of the old lady's study, Han instructed Qiuping to take the little girl to Liu Ke to pass the word, and by the way, he sent Liu Ke the Buddhist scriptures prepared by the old lady for Liu Ke.

At this time, Liu Ke saw the Buddhist scriptures held in the arms of the two little girls behind Qiu Ping and knew what was going on.

Her grandfather really took what Yan Jie said seriously.

When Liu Qing and Yuye heard that Qiuping was coming, they all came out to greet them.

Qiu Ping bowed to Liu Ke and said with a smile: "Miss, the slave maid came to pass on the old lady's words, and the third lady was supposed to come in person, but she couldn't leave because of some things, so she sent the slave and maid over." ”

After she finished speaking, she straightened up and conveyed the words that Han had given her to Liu Ke in their original form.

After Liu Ke heard this, he looked helpless.

"In the future, the eldest lady's meal will be reported to the old lady to know, and the old lady also said, if you don't meet the old lady, it's not your unfilial piety, this is a meritorious thing for the whole clan to accumulate blessings, so you don't have to mind."

After Liu Ke listened, he hurriedly nodded yes.

Liu Qing and Yuye hurriedly took over the Buddhist scriptures from the little girl behind Qiuping.

After Qiuping finished speaking, he went to return to his life without lingering.

At this time, Han and Liu Xu were talking in their courtyard.

There was no one else in the room, just the husband and wife.

The earth dragon was burning very hot, and there was a stove in the middle of the bedroom, although the wind was biting cold outside, it was warm inside.

They sat opposite each other across the kang table, Han Shi was holding a small incense burner in his hand, Liu Xu leaned against the wall of the bed, and from time to time reached out to grab some chestnuts on the kang table and knock them.

There were already some chestnut skins scattered on the kang table.

"What kind of fuss do you say the old lady is doing?" Han asked with some puzzlement.

Liu Xu said disapprerovingly: "Didn't you say it?" This year, we are afraid that there will be evil stars in our family, and it will be broken to find a person who is blessed with longevity. ”

Han Shi glanced at him and said, "My third master, only you, a solid-eyed person, believe this." ”

Liu Xu threw a chestnut skin in his hand on the kang table, leaned in front of Han's, and asked curiously, "Do you know the inside story?" ”

"I know what's going on, I'm just a pawn in the ring between the old lady and the old lady, she threw it, he threw it. They all used me as a gunman, but fortunately I still understood, if I was as confused as my grandfather, I wouldn't know how to die. Han said indignantly.

After Liu Xu listened. He took out a half-bitten chestnut from his mouth, and said with a stiff face, "What do you say?" How can you say that about your father and mother, when did they use you as a gunman, and you really took yourself seriously. With that, he moved to the kang.

Seeing that he was leaving, Han Shi stretched out his hand and pressed him and said, "Don't be busy leaving, let me ask you, who invited the monk today?" ”

Liu Xu stopped his movements, sat on the edge of the kang and said, "I heard that he came with Mu Qing, so he probably invited it." ”

"The men of your Liu family are all the same pedantic, I inquired. That Mu Qing didn't believe the monk's words at all, how could it be that he invited him. He's just like me. Han Shi said in a lengthened tone.

Liu Xu said impatiently: "Don't detour, hurry up and say who invited it." ”

Han snorted lightly and said, "This is also my own guess, who the old lady listens to the most in this family." Whoever invited it? ”

Liu Xu said disappreciably: "Why didn't you see that the old lady invited it herself?" ”

The corners of Han's mouth smiled, his body tilted to the side, and he said proudly: "What does the old lady ask a monk to do for no reason." ”

Liu Xu saw that Han had been holding the shelf and didn't say anything, so he simply didn't ask, got off the kang and put on his shoes, and said, "It's so tiring to talk to a woman like you, I'm going out." You don't have to wait for me to eat. ”

Han sat up straight and hurriedly asked, "It's time to eat, where are you going?" ”

"You leave me alone." Liu Xu chatted about the thick cotton curtain and went out of the room.

The angry Han pointed at him and said, "I just know that if you go outside, don't come back." After speaking, he angrily reached out and stroked the chestnut skins on the kang table to the ground.

At this time, she suddenly heard someone talking faintly in the courtyard, and she hurriedly got up and walked to the window, just opening a crack. The biting wind got used to it.

It was so cold that she couldn't help but secretly say: "It's just winter, and the weather is so cold, and I don't know what it will be like at the end of the year." ”

Thinking so, she saw that it was Qiu Ping who was talking to Liu Xu in the courtyard, and she was about to close the window. Suddenly, Liu Xu said: "I'll come back this morning and evening, you just wait for me at home." ”

Han didn't listen to Qiuping's reply, and closed the window angrily.

Qiuping heard the movement and hurriedly quit the house that Liu Xu entered.

Seeing that the ground was in a mess, Qiuping didn't dare to speak, and was busy cleaning up the things on the ground.

Usually these jobs are done by the little girl at the bottom.

Han Shi slowly dissipated his breath, called Qiu Ping to him, and said, "In the future, everything that the eldest lady puts in her mouth will be under our control, you are extremely careful, don't make a mess while we are in charge." ”

After she finished speaking, she instructed: "During this time, the mouth should not be long, don't say a word, but the eyes should be a few more." ”

Qiu Ping bowed and said, "The slave is provincial." ”

Not to mention how careful Han was after taking over the matter, just say that after Liu Jiafu mentioned the words of Yan Ring to the old lady Wang, the old lady Wang's reaction.

Before Liu Jiafu's words were finished, the old lady Wang connected this matter with what she had done to Liu Ke some time ago, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Then he said quietly: "When did you believe in the gods and Buddhas again?" ”

Liu Jiafu said: "I don't believe what others say, but I will believe what Yanjie says at that time, I believe in his character." ”

"A monk who is accustomed to talking about beauties is also worthy of your trust?" The old lady said with a blank look.

Liu Jiafu raised his neck and said: "In your eyes, you are a beauty, and in the eyes of others, beauty and ugliness are the same, this is the difference between a layman and a monk." ”

"Do you really want to do what the monk said?" The old lady Wang asked.

Liu Jiafu stroked his beard and said, "That's nature." ”

The old lady looked up sharply and said, "No! ”。
