Chapter 87: The Mystery

"Farewell to death has swallowed the voice, farewell to life is always compassionate. Jiangnan is a miasma, and there is no news of the eviction of customers. The old man entered my dream, and I remembered my appearance. You are now in the net, why do you have wings? I am afraid that it is not the soul of life, and the road is far and unfathomable. The soul comes to the maple leaf green, and the soul returns to the black. The setting moon fills the beams of the house, hesitating to shine on the color. The water is deep and the waves are wide, and there is no dragon to win. Yuan Dayong deserved to have read some books, and while thinking about it, he read the poem softly.

Then his face changed, "Don't swallow your voice in death, and don't be always sympathetic in life." Could it be that Ruomei has already suffered an accident? ”

Ren Yaoqi was also pondering this poem, but when he heard Yuan Dayong's guess, he shook his head and muttered: "That person has gone to such great lengths to follow you so far, it shouldn't be just to tell you that the person you are looking for is dead. ”

"And what is the meaning of this poem?" Yuan Dayong was puzzled, "This person is really strange, what can't he say well, and he even started a dumb riddle!" ”

When Ren Yaoqi heard this, his heart moved: "'Jun is in the net' is trying to guess a riddle?" ”

"Guessing a riddle?" Yuan Dayong's expression was a little strange. He felt that if that person had gone to such great lengths to let them guess the riddle, then this person would really have enough leisure.

"And what's the mystery?" Although Yuan Dayong was a little disapproving, he really couldn't think of what this sentence meant, so he could only treat the dead horse as a live horse.

Ren Yaochi tilted his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly looked stunned, raised his head and said, "White Arowana suit?" ”

"Arowana suit? Is Miss Five talking about the mystery? Yuan Dayong frowned and thought for a moment, "'Jun is in the net'...... Arowana suit...... It makes sense, but what do you want to illustrate? ”

Ren Yaochi shook his head and said softly: "I don't want to explain anything, I just want to tell us a place name." ”

"Place names?" Yuan Dayong was also stunned, pondered carefully for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "White Dragon...... White Dragon Temple? The mystery is the White Dragon Temple? ”

The temple was built on Mount Bailong, and it is said that the origin of the name of this place is related to the story of the white dragon fish suit. "Jun is caught today" implies the words of "White Arowana Suit". That's really likely to be the White Dragon Temple.

Ren Yaochi nodded: "If Yuan Ruomei is really in the hands of someone else, then the most likely thing they will come to the door is to tell us a location." ”

Yuan Dayong couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Then this person is really ...... What if we can't guess? Didn't he waste all his hard work? Yuan Dayong always felt that this person was a little strange.

Ren Yaoqi is not very accurate, this is just her guess.

"That'...... A small trip to the White Dragon Temple to find out the situation? Yuan Dayong asked.

Ren Yaochi nodded: "Then you should be careful, it's best to bring some people with you." ”

However, Ren Yaoqi always felt that from the perspective of this person's actions, it didn't look like he was malicious, and Yuan Dayong retreated.

As soon as Ren Yao returned to Ziwei Courtyard, Xi'er ran over from the main room.

"Miss Five. My wife asked you to go to the main house. Xi'er bowed and said respectfully.

Ren Yaoqi didn't go back to his west chamber, and went straight to the main room that he entered with this Xi'er.

Li was talking with Mama Zhou in the east room, Ren Yaoqi lifted the curtain and went in, and asked with a smile, "Mother." What are you looking for from me? ”

Li beckoned and asked Ren Yaoqi to sit down beside her, before he frowned slightly and asked, "Period." I heard that you've been going out a lot to meet people lately? ”

When Ren Yao came, she thought that the Li family might ask her about this matter, and she had indeed been out more recently.

Ren Yaoqi briefly told the Li family about the Zhu family.

Li Shi nodded after hearing this and said, "I know that you have a good heart, and it is a good thing to have a good relationship." Mama Zhou also mentioned it to me before when the Zhu family sent things in, and I didn't stop it. But after all, they are outsiders, and it's not good for you to always go out to meet guests as a woman who hasn't been out of the cabinet. In the future, if they come again, if the woman is a woman, someone can bring them in and talk back, and if a man is a man, you can send a mother-in-law to meet him. ”

Ren Yaochi originally wanted to say something, but saw Li Shi looking at her worriedly with a frown. She couldn't say anything, so she had to nod her head first.

At this time, Ren Yaohua also lifted the curtain and came in.

When Li saw that the two sisters were coming, he smiled and said, "I called you here today because of the housekeeper's grandmother." Mama Zhou has already picked a housekeeper for each of your sisters. I'll be in the house in a moment. ”

Mama Zhou also smiled: "The third lady and the fifth miss will see you first today, if you think it is not your favor, the slave will be picked again." This housekeeper must have your agreement, and then wait for you to leave the house. They are going to follow, too. ”

That's what it means to pick a companion room.

Li Shi said with great trust: "Mama Zhou has been selected for so long, these two must be good." ”

Ren Yaoqi remembered one thing, in her previous life, she didn't ask the Li family to pick a housekeeper for her.

Ren Yaohua's housekeeper Mama Xu heard that she was indeed capable, and later when Ren Yaohua got married, this Mama Xu didn't know what means she used, so that her daughter replaced a big maid beside Ren Yaohua and became Ren Yaohua's dowry maid and married to the Zeng family.

After Ren Yaohua killed Zeng Kui, the dowry maids around her all suffered with her, but Mama Xu's daughter was safe and sound, because she went to tell Zeng Tong the secret.

She has heard a lot of people who buy for glory, but this one is the most chilling for her.

Que'er lifted the curtain and came in to report that Mama Xu and Mama Gao had come and were waiting outside.

Li nodded and asked Que'er to lead someone in and talk.

Ren Yaochi sat on the kang and waited silently.

But after a while, Que'er walked in with two women, who were probably in their thirties.

The one who walked in front was neatly dressed, his hair was meticulously pulled, and although his expression was a little serious, his facial features were very delicate, so at first glance, it was somewhat similar to Mama Zhou's style.

The one in the back is dressed more plainly, with a slightly round face, a proper kind smile on the corner of his mouth, and he looks very good-tempered.

Both women came forward to kowtow to Li and the two young ladies. Mama Zhou pointed to the mama with a serious face and said, "This is Mama Xu, it was picked for the third young lady." ”

pointed to the one with a round face and introduced, "This is Mama Gao, for Miss Five." ”

Ren Yaoqi looked at the two of them, Ren Yaohua glanced at Mama Xu who was selected for her and nodded to Li, indicating that she had no opinion, and she had always trusted Mama Zhou very much.

Li Shi looked at Ren Yaoqi and waited for her to make a statement.

Ren Yaoqi suddenly looked at Ren Yaohua and said with a smile: "Third sister, shall we change the housekeeper?" I looked at Mama Xu as if she had some déjà vu. ”

Everyone was stunned, and Li glared at Ren Yaoqi and said with disgust: "Period, you are naughty again!" ”

Mama Zhou was also a little embarrassed to look at it, Mama Xu was specially selected for Ren Yaohua, because Ren Yaohua would be out of the cabinet a few years earlier than Ren Yaohua, and she would need someone who could stand alone in her mother-in-law's house in the future.

Ren Yaoqi grimaced, pulled Ren Yaohua's sleeve, and said entanglemently: "Third sister, let's change, change, change......"

Ren Yaohua frowned and glanced at Ren Yaoqi, then looked at the two grandmothers, pulled Ren Yaoqi's hand away, and said impatiently: "Then change it." It's just that you have to think clearly, if you want to return it on a whim in the future, I won't care about you! ”

Ren Yaoqi smiled: "Third Sister Xie Lu." ”

Li and Mama Zhou glanced at each other, both with helpless faces.

But in the end, the Li family is still happy in her heart, the two sisters are getting along well now, and they no longer want to be like enemies when they met like that, and she is a mother in her eyes, not to mention how relieved she is.

Mama Zhou didn't want the two sisters to fall out because of this matter, so she didn't say anything.

Mama Gao was also carefully selected, even if there are any shortcomings, she can be on the table if she takes her by her side to teach for a while.

So the housekeeper for Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua was prepared. It's just a reversal.

Mama Xu and Mama Gao both came up with inconvenient faces to kowtow to the new master.

Li said to them gently: "You will each live in the small ear room of the east and west compartments, and today is only the first day to enter the mansion, go down to clean up first, familiarize yourself with the situation in the mansion, and then officially go on an errand tomorrow." ”

The two grandmothers thanked Li again, got up and retreated.

Ren Yaoqi quietly looked at Mama Xu's back, and the look in her eyes was incomprehensible.

Although the Li family arranged for the two housekeepers to be on duty on the second day, Mama Xu came to Ren Yao to serve in the evening.

When she reappeared, Mama Xu had already changed into a spring dress issued by the Ren family, and her hair was still tied into a meticulous bun, only a silver comb was pinned, which was very capable and calm.

Ren Yaochi asked Sydney to call all the eight maids in her house and let them know Mama Xu.

When going to bed at night, Mama Xu personally served Ren Yao to wash.

Ren Yaoqi quietly observed secretly, and had to admit that Mama Zhou's vision was indeed good, and this Mama Xu's words and deeds were just right, so that people couldn't find a trace of mistakes.

"Who else is in Mama Xu's family?" When Mama Xu bent over to cover Ren Yaochi with a blanket, Ren Yaochi asked casually with her eyes closed.

Mama Xu said respectfully and gently: "The slave and maid are no longer in charge, there is only one kid in the family, fourteen years old this year, and now he is learning skills from the second shopkeeper of the coal stack opened by the Ren family in Yunyang City." ”

Ren Yaochi couldn't help but open his eyes: "You only have one son?" ”

Mama Xu nodded: "The slave has only one son." ”

Ren Yaochi did not speak again.

Mama Xu waited at the head of the bed for a long time, and when she saw that Ren Yaochi stopped talking, she thought she was asleep, so she helped her put the tent down, picked up the candlestick on the small table and gently withdrew from the house.

The room darkened inch by inch, and Ren Yaochi slowly closed his eyes.
