Chapter 468: Peach Roots
(Add)
Two days have passed, Xue Rui sent Lao Cui to send Yu Shu two pots of blooming violet orchids, and a letter, saying that he couldn't get out of the past few days and couldn't go to the Forgotten Machine Building to meet, so she sent someone to Xue's mansion to deliver the post if she had something.
Yu Shu guessed that he was suddenly busy because everyone met a tiger in Huazhen Garden, so he asked Lao Cui to take the word back and told him to beware of villains recently.
Early in the morning, Yu Shu was about to go to the Taishi Academy for morning class, and pulled Yu Xiaoxiu out of the door, but saw a soft sedan chair just parked at the gate of her house, and there was a maid and a mother-in-law standing next to the sedan chair, dressed in new clothes, neat and clean, and there were two minions behind him, holding a few heavy gift boxes in his hands.
Then, the woman opened the sedan door, lifted the curtain, and helped down a woman in her thirties, with a dignified appearance and generous demeanor, and at a glance she knew that it was from the official family.
Yu Shuzheng wondered who this person was, so he heard Yu Xiaoxiu say in surprise: "Mrs. Hu? ”
Yu Shu then knew the identity of the person who came, it should be Hu Tian'er's mother-in-law, the only daughter of Guo Huai'an, the secretary of Dali Temple.
Mrs. Hu also looked up and saw a pair of sisters and brothers standing on the doorstep, with laugh lines floating in the corners of her eyes, and walked up with her mother-in-law's hand, and said in a cordial tone:
"It's a shame that I came early, otherwise I'm going to miss it, Xiao Xiu, is this your sister?"
Yu Xiaoxiu nodded dumbly, unable to figure out why Hu Tian'er and his mother came to his house.
Yu Shu knew the identity of the visitor, so he saluted first: "It turned out to be Mrs. Hu, and my younger brother was taken care of by Ling Lang in the school." ”
This Mrs. Hu is married to Hu Shilang of the Ministry of Rites, and she has a decree on her body, and she is a four-grade courtesy, that is, she is a female operator who is indispensable to see.
"Yu Shuzi must not be polite," Mrs. Hu lightly held Yu Shu's hand. stopped her for half a salute and said softly: "I came to thank you today, can I delay you for some time and go in to talk?" ”
Yu Shuxin said that the "whistleblower letter" she asked Yu Xiaoxiu to bring to Mrs. Hu a few days ago was useful, so she asked someone to go in sideways, two steps behind, and asked Liu Zhong to send Yu Xiaoxiu to school first.
Enter the door, sit down, serve tea, Mrs. Hu did not drink a sip of tea. First straightened up and waved at Yu Shu, his eyes were a little red, and said:
"Thank you Yu Operator for telling me righteously, saving my son a big disaster, and the foolish woman is grateful."
Yu Shu hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and said, "Mrs. Hu is serious." It was Xiao Xiu's child who asked me, and I had a lot of things to do for Ling Gongzi, and I couldn't talk about righteousness. I'll tell you the truth, if it weren't for Xiao Xiu's reading and literacy with Tian'er, and the relationship would be good, where would I offend and meddle in the family affairs of the house. ”
She calculated that day that Hu Tian'er was going to encounter a bloody disaster, and the murderer was a person from Xiao Hu, so she wrote a letter to ask Yu Xiaoxiu to hand over to Mrs. Hu, pointing out this. Inevitably, Mrs. Hu disagreed, and stamped her own private seal.
It seems to be a gesture, but in fact it is a bit of a risk, if Mrs. Hu believes her, it is best to take precautions in advance. If Mrs. Hu doesn't believe it, something happened to Hu Tian'er, maybe she will take this letter and trust her.
A woman in a house like Mrs. Hu is the most superfluous. After the incident, where would you not think about it, you will know that Lu Dao has inherited a lot of Yu Shu's favor, so he condescended to come to the door to meet him in person.
Of course, this is only one of the reasons, and the other reason is that she took advantage of the situation this time to get rid of a pregnant and restless concubine in the backyard, so her gratitude to Yu Shu is even more.
The process was tortuous, and when Mrs. Hu saw Yu Shu coming up to pull her, she took advantage of the situation to hold hands, sat down side by side on the short couch on the side, took out a champa and pressed the corners of her eyes to moisten, before she said to Yu Shu:
"I knew that Lu Daoyu had such a ability, I might be able to sleep a few more and sleep peacefully, I might as well say a few more words, those families in the capital, the reputation works, I really ask them to do things, and calculate it for my son, but there is no real word, either about him left and right, or vague, I am afraid that I will say something wrong and smash the signboard."
Yu Shu understood at this time, she was also strange before, Hu Tian'er's family background, Lord Guo's face, can't she find a few great Yi masters for her grandson to look at? Why tremble and detain Hu Tian'er at home.
It turned out that she thought everyone was "stupid", and it was precisely because of Hu Tian'er's precious life that others did not dare to make a decision, lest they say something wrong, and they would attract resentment from the two families.
After all, it is easy to learn the word, and it is extremely difficult to be accurate, and the six techniques passed on to her by Qingzheng Daoist are enough to learn, and if you use it to the extreme, you will have sixty percent of the accurate head.
If it weren't for the surprisingly accurate timing of her law, she wouldn't have asserted it.
It's a pity that her law of calamity is currently limited in the scope of estimation, otherwise the Great Yi Masters in Anling City are afraid that all the thaumaturgy added up will not be worth this one in her hands.
Yu Shu felt as if he was guarding a gold mine at the moment, but he only dug the part of the hole, and he was in no hurry, so he could only mine little by little.
Mrs. Hu was also angry this time, so she complained about those families in front of Yu Shu, not because she loved to chew on the root of her tongue, but because she was afraid.
Yu Shu faced her quick words, let go of a bit of hypocrisy, persuaded her a few words in a friendly voice, and said:
"Madame, don't be overrated, I may not be better than a few big gentlemen in each family in terms of ability, that is, I want you to be able to prevent it, and I really don't have a good fortune, so I can only blame me for not being good at learning."
Although Yu Shu's words were modest, she didn't plan to hide it, her face was faint, Mrs. Hu was a delicate person, looking at Yu Shu, she was more convinced that she was really capable - this murderous disaster, how many people in Anling City could say accurately?
Mrs. Hu was the only daughter in the family before she got married, and her father also had the idea of letting her keep the stove, so she was raised as a boy for a few years since she was a child, and she was considered an insightful woman, so she didn't think Yu Shu was thin, and she intended to have a relationship with her junior.
"I heard that Yu Operator entered the Taishi Shuyuan to study, not long ago I was fortunate to go to the imperial tomb to worship my ancestors, if I can successfully enter the office in the future, the future is bright, than our son has to rely on the foolish women of the master's house, and it is indispensable to work you one or two in the future, this child thank you gift, you must accept it."
As Mrs. Hu spoke, she asked the maid to ask the servants in the courtyard to bring in the gifts, put them on the table one by one, and gave the gift list to Yu Shu.
Although Yu Shu loves money, he doesn't want to accept Mrs. Hu's gift, this is what Yu Xiaoxiu begged her, she can help, and then receive the gift, what is it.
Mrs. Hu probably saw the reluctance on her face, smiled in her heart, got up, opened the boxes one by one, and said:
"I'm afraid you don't like gold and silver vulgar things, I have specially selected, this box is the tea handmade by my father, this box is the rouge gouache made by the palace, these two things are just minds, in addition, this piece of hundred-year-old peach wood root, and this piece of Longting wood, I think you will be able to use it."
Yu Shu's heart moved, and when she approached the table, she stared at the ebony gold wood in one of the large boxes, and the color she saw in the "Treasure Book", her eyes suddenly lit up.
She was no longer polite, and smiled at Mrs. Hu: "Madame doesn't know, I'm struggling to find such a peach root, let's take it greedily, Madame has nothing to do with it, but if you come to me, don't hesitate to count it for you." (To be continued.) )
PS: (Youmu has found Yu Shu's luck, what do you want, what do you think this is for?) )
