Chapter 176: Come and say goodbye

On the second day, I saw Liu Zhaoqun go to Mrs. Su and say that he was going to leave Sufu.

At that time, after the time of asking for peace, because of the whim of his grandmother, he suddenly wanted to find someone to talk to, so he left the second sister who had been closed for a long time; Su Nianyu thought it was none of her business, and was about to retreat with the other sisters, but was also stopped by her grandmother.

She had to stay.

As soon as she sat down firmly on her grandmother's right hand, Mother Li walked in from outside, and she blessed herself: "...... The young master of the Liu family is here, and he has been waiting outside for almost two pillars of incense. ”

When Mrs. Su heard this, she hurriedly said, "I let him wait for so long, please invite him in quickly." ”

Li's mother went out in response, and Su Nianyu also got up, in the end, she also knew that if Liu Zhaoqun came into the house, it would not be good for her to stay any longer, so she said: "Since Liu Gongzi is here, her granddaughter will avoid it first." ”

Old Madam Su waved her hand and said, "It's okay, the hall is bright and open, it's okay to sit and talk, you can sit back." ”

He smiled sideways and looked at the second sister who had recovered her gentle face, and said, "Sister Qing, you should step back and sit in a position first, and let Zhao Qun sit here." This boy has always been polite, and when it happened to be the hour for you to say goodbye, he waited outside. Now that I saw some people scattered, I asked Li's mother to come in to report, thinking that there was something important. ”

Su Nianqing was smiling delicately, but when she heard that her grandmother actually asked her to sit back, she couldn't help but smile stiffly, and couldn't help but look at the eldest sister sitting on the right side of her grandmother, thinking in her heart why she didn't let her change her position.

But he smiled softly and agreed.

When she found a new place to sit down, she saw a person approaching outside the door.

Liu Zhaoqun walked directly to Mrs. Su and made a gesture. Old Madam Su smiled and said, "No need to be polite. ”

Liu Zhaoqun turned slightly sideways and saluted Su Nianyu; Although he was forced to leave Su Mansion yesterday, the smile on Su Nianyu's face was impeccable. She returned the salute.

Liu Zhaoqun cast her meaningful glance when he looked up, and in the blink of an eye, he had already sat on the left side of Old Madam Su with a smile.

He said humbly: "Xiao Sheng took the liberty to come to disturb at this hour, I hope the old lady will not blame, it is really urgent, Xiao Sheng thought of the old lady, and had to come." ”

Old Madam Su smiled: "What are you talking about! You are Aunt Liu's own brother. It's not a strange person, what bothers and doesn't bother! Remembering what he had said, he asked, "What is the matter?" But it doesn't hurt for you to say it. ”

Liu Zhaoqun got up again and gave Mrs. Su a deep bow, "Xiaosheng has lived in Su Mansion these days, and he has been taught by his brother-in-law. Fang felt that he had gained a lot of knowledge; I was taken care of by the old lady again. Xiaosheng is really grateful. But I just got a letter from home, saying that the old father at home was sick and the high fever did not go away, and Xiaosheng was really worried, so he was ready to leave to take care of his father immediately, and specially came to say goodbye to the old lady. ”

Old Madam Su didn't expect this to happen, and hurriedly asked, "Is your father okay now?" ”

Liu Zhaoqun's face was gloomy, "No." However, I have asked several skilled doctors in the city to help take care of it, and I think it will get better soon. ”

"That's fine." Old Madam Su said. "Although it is now May, the weather is changeable, hot and cold; Today is a sunny day, and tomorrow may be a pouring of rain, which is really unprepared. When you go back this time, you should take care of yourself more. ”

Liu Zhaoqun smiled, "Thank you for the old lady's care." ”

“……”

Su Nianyu sat on the side, looking at her grandmother and Liu Zhaoqun without saying a word, talking warmly, as if the two of them were very close grandchildren.

She is a serious granddaughter, and she has grown up so big, and she has never seen such a good face as her grandmother.

There is indeed a trace of weirdness in my heart.

couldn't help but glance at Liu Zhaoqun twice, he never thought that he had only lived in Su Mansion for a few days, and he was already so close to his grandmother.

There was no place for her to interject on the left and right, so she listened quietly with her eyes down.

The second sister on the other end heard the news that her uncle was about to leave, and couldn't help but be anxious: "Uncle, don't you still have some doubts that you haven't understood?" Aren't you going to stay a few more days and let your father guide you? ”

But I was worried that my uncle left without warning like this, so who would help her treat her eldest sister?

Didn't my aunt say that my uncle came to Su Mansion this time to help them? Now, I haven't been able to help yet, why is my uncle leaving all of a sudden?

Su Nianqing was so anxious that tears filled her eyes.

Liu Zhaoqun looked at his niece, who was not a weapon, and still thought in his heart that her excessive move had ruined his plan, but he couldn't express it directly, so he smiled and said: "There is something at home, I really can't help but go back." ”

Old Madam Su also nodded, "What Zhaoqun said is that my father is sick, so it's good to go back and have a look." I heard Su Ran say that it is easy for you to pass the examination when you have to learn now, and when it comes to the palace examination, you can ask him what preparations to make. ”

Liu Zhaoqun said modestly: "...... It's just that my brother-in-law can afford it. ”

Old Madam Su disagreed, "He can see people accurately, and he said that you can easily get by, just do it." ”

Liu Zhaoqun also knew that it would be a little hypocritical to talk too much, so he smiled and said: "Then thanks to my brother-in-law's good words." ”

Su Nianqing saw that the two were chatting again, and couldn't help but have a trace of anxiety between her eyebrows, but she was not easy to interject; After all, the two of them just laughed and didn't speak, so she planned to say something more to keep her uncle, thinking that her uncle was valued by her grandmother, and maybe her grandmother would help keep him.

Then he said, "But you ...... uncle."

But as soon as she opened her mouth, Old Madam Su had already stopped her, and her smile faded even more, "Sister Qing, I know that you and Brother Ao and Zhaoqun are very compatible, but people can't force them to stay." If Zhao Qun didn't go back in such a situation, he would have been tongue-in-cheek, as a boudoir woman, you should know all these courtesies, righteousness and shame. ”

Su Nianqing got the old lady to speak, and then realized that it was inappropriate for her to force her uncle to stay behind, and she also knew that if she said the wrong thing again. It will definitely displease my grandmother, so I am busy answering yes.

Old Madam Su's expression eased at this time, and she said kindly: "Zhao Qun left in such a hurry. It's a pity, Ben was still wondering when you were free, so he asked the housekeeper to take you around the street, but he didn't want to, and such a thing happened......"

Old Madam Su had a little worry on her face, and looked at Liu Zhaoqun's eyes with a kind vein.

But I was thinking about something in my heart.

Liu Zhaoqun lived in Su Mansion for a few days, and Mrs. Su secretly let people stare at him for a few days. She was very satisfied with the conclusions she had reached.

Good looks, good knowledge, and politeness. There is a degree of advance and retreat; The most important thing is that he is clean and self-loving, and he is still unmarried, but he is a rare young man.

Although he was only born in a county magistrate's family. But if he himself is angry. After receiving the grace of the saint in the temple examination, he can always raise his eyebrows and glorify his ancestors.

Such a talent, she didn't want to miss it, so she thought of her granddaughter of school age in the house.

One is the concubine in the house, and the other is the third girl, Su Yingyue.

Although Liu Zhaoqun is only a small person now, he has a bright future in the future, if he marries the three girls who are out of the house, he will marry him. I'm afraid that such a tall young man is unwilling in his heart; But if you bet on him, the only concubine in the current house, I don't think it's safe enough.

Sister Yu'er's appearance is naturally unquestionable. is another concubine, if you look at it from the perspective of identity alone, she is a hundred times stronger than Sister Ying; If he really puts his concubine into his hands, Sister Yu will marry him lowly, but if he competes and takes the test to be a flower list or even the champion, then Sister Yu will be happy.

…… And the problem is that at present, Liu Zhaoqun is just a person, not to mention his fame, his background is not high, and his name is not right, how can he talk about marriage?

His son said that he had a college question, and he must not be wrong; But if he encounters some natural and man-made disasters when he is able to try, and his performance is abnormal, how can it be good? It's just a loss for a concubine in vain, and I get gossip all over the sky!

A concubine married a small person in a small county, and she will really laugh out of her big teeth when she says it!

Therefore, although Mrs. Su was optimistic about him, she wanted to wait until next year's palace examination before making plans.

I am afraid that if I don't make an idea at this time, if this person runs away, the gain will outweigh the loss; Therefore, I will leave Sister Yu today, just to talk about what she thinks.

Unexpectedly, before she could say a word, Liu Zhaoqun came over and suddenly wanted to say goodbye, but when he regretted it, he felt relieved - this child is filial piety.

Liu Zhaoqun walked so quickly, it was indeed beyond Mrs. Su's expectations, she had been the home of most of her life, and her eyes were very sharp, and she found his slippery eyes on Sister Yu'er.

I was relieved.

If Liu Zhaoqun is really interested in Sister Yu, when he becomes famous, he will definitely not forget their Sufu concubine, and when the time comes, won't they have to return to their Sufu?

Mrs. Su's mind turned quickly, and after chatting with Liu Zhaoqun for a while, she recruited someone to wrap some dried fruit pastries of various varieties with local characteristics, and sorted them out as three small cages, "...... These foods are very famous in Beijing, and it is not easy to get them, and you probably don't have these things in your city, so you should take them on the road as a broken mouth; When your father is better, he will be able to try it. ”

Liu Zhaoqun was shirking, but Mrs. Su was very insistent, so he accepted it with a smile.

Su Nianyu saw that the two were so affectionate, the corners of her lips pursed and pursed, and she saw that there was a maid outside the door walking back and forth eagerly, and from time to time she looked in, so she made a look at the smiling maid who was waiting for tea by her side.

As soon as the person came back, saying that the carriage outside had sent the maid to urge Liu Zhaoqun to leave, she pulled out a smile, looked at the empty space and said to Mrs. Su and Liu Zhaoqun, who were chatting happily: "...... Thinking that it was not too early to come, the coachman outside sent someone to urge him. ”

Mrs. Su gently instructed a few words about being careful on the road, but when she saw her grandmother glancing at her lightly, she knew that her grandmother also wanted her to say a few words.

She did so without changing her face: "...... Liu Gongzi left in such a hurry, it is really a pity, if you are free next time, you can also enter the capital to sit. Moreover, starting from the capital, the road is very long, so I wish you a smooth journey. ”

Only then did Liu Zhaoqun boldly look at the beautiful girl, and said with a smile: "The eldest girl is right." ”

Why did she leave, the eldest girl knew it very well, and she also knew, he said that there was something at home, but it was just an excuse; The eldest girl was pretending to be leaky, and her words sounded as if she was inviting him to come back when he was free, how could he not know that the smiling girl in front of him was looking forward to never seeing him again?

Thinking that the jade pendant he had worn for more than ten years was now held on the eldest girl's body, he didn't dare to act rashly for the time being, let alone really listen to her words on the scene.

At that moment, he made another gesture, said goodbye to Mrs. Su, and went out of the house.

Old Madam Su looked at the man's straight and atmospheric back, and her eyes deepened.

Su Nianqing also looked outside, and wanted to say a few words before her uncle left, so she hurriedly said goodbye.

Su Nianyu was the only one left sitting beside her grandmother.

Thinking that Fang Cai's grandmother and Liu Zhaoqun were talking and laughing, he lost the heart to talk to his grandmother, stayed in the house for a while, and then left with his maid. (To be continued......)
