Chapter 137: Someone from Kyoto
Old Madam Hou has been holding her breath, she is just pretending to be calm, and when she heard that the threat was lifted, she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Then, Sixi and Lukfuku also fainted. The guards didn't care about the festival, so they hurriedly went over and picked up one on their backs, and several people went down the mountain and returned to the temple.
Lancao and Qiu Ju were almost stupefied by this battle, and when they saw that Rao Xuekong was fine, they patted their chests and breathed a sigh of relief.
Rao Xuekong asked Lancao and Qiu Ju to take care of the three masters and servants, and beckoned to the guards. "Are all of your people dead?"
"Back girl, the others are gone, but we have just sent a signal, and someone will pick it up soon." A guard replied, and his tone and attitude towards Rao Xuekong were quite respectful, "There will also be people on the mountain to clean up."
"Weishenme didn't go to the temple to hide just now?" She was curious about that.
"Back to the girl, the old lady is merciful, when it comes to going to the temple, it will affect a few little masters, and there may be a glimmer of life when you go up the mountain to hide."
Rao Xuekong still admires this old lady Hou, and she also has some good feelings, otherwise she wouldn't save her. However, with such courage and bearing, what is the identity of this old lady?
Thinking so, she asked.
"Back girl, the old lady is the mother of the Marquis of Danyang."
Danyang Hou? Is it a Hou Ye? Hou Ye's mother, no wonder that her momentum is different from that of ordinary people or just rich people. However, she doesn't know Danyang Hou either.
Rao Xuekong naturally wouldn't be naΓ―ve enough to ask about the purpose of the killers, or whether Danyang Hou had offended anyone. These are not her turn to care, and the person who dares to send a killer to attack the mother of the Hou Ye naturally cannot have a low status.
The two tigers are fighting, and she, a small ordinary person who doesn't even have an independent body, should stand aside.
What Rao Xuekong didn't know was that at the same time as she was killing on the mountain, Master Liu met a group of people who surprised him and were ecstatic at the same time.
The temple is actually only half an hour away from the nearest town. After entering the town, Master Liu asked Shi Suo to go to the Yue Inn to book a room. Because this is the only place to go to the city of money, Master Liu has been here many times, and the largest inn in this town is the Laiyue Inn, and he is very familiar with it.
The group stayed at the Laiyue Inn. Liu Mingqing and Liu Mingji got out of the car and clamored to eat snacks here. Liu Mingru also wanted to go out for a walk, so Master Liu asked all his subordinates to accompany him, and he asked for a pot of tea on the first floor of the inn, drinking tea and resting.
Stone Lock helped the coachman settle the wagons. Feed the horses forage. Another carriage came to a stop next to it. The coachman jumped down, glanced at the Liu family's carriage, and suddenly asked, "Dare to ask where the Liu family is in the house?" β
Stone Lock turned his head. Yes, the coachman of the house is also very well-dressed, and he thinks that it will not be a small family, so he replied: "Jasper City Liufu." β
The man was overjoyed when he heard this, and said straightly: "But the Jade City Liu Jin Shengliu Lord's Mansion?" β
"Exactly."
"Oh, that's a coincidence! Our grandmother is going to Liufu this time! I never thought that I would meet here, but Master Liu is here? With so many carriages coming out of the house, are the ladies and ladies all with them? The man asked again.
Shi Suo was surprised: "Which grandmother is it?" Our lord is drinking tea in the front. β
"Then I have to hurry up and ask Mama to come downstairs and meet Master Liu. Brother, I'm sorry for you to report to Master Liu first! It is said that the housekeeper of Kyoto Lord Liu's house is visiting. β
When I heard about it, I'm from Kyoto! This is amazing, you have to go and tell the master quickly!
"The little one is going right away, going right away!"
Shi Suo quickly ran to the front lobby to find Master Liu, gasping for breath to speak, Master Liu stood up suddenly, and asked excitedly, "What you said is true?" Are you talking about Kyoto Liu-sama's house? Is it really surnamed Liu? β
"Master, I heard you right, I really mean Kyoto Lord Liu!"
Master Liu was excited, excited, and ecstatic. The third aunt is surnamed Liu! As soon as he was excited, he forgot that the Weishenme family would come so quickly, and the people he sent estimated that they might not be able to get to Kyoto at this time, and they would have to check it out when they arrived in Kyoto, and Master Liu originally expected that it would take two or three months to find out some eyebrows, and it might even take more than half a year or more.
Of course, he didn't know that the people he sent had already been killed by the eldest lady.
"Mama, the housekeeper, it must be her, she must be right!" Master Liu rubbed his hands and kept talking.
"Master, master, do you need to prepare something?" Shi Suo looked at the pot of tea on the table and reminded.
Master Liu nodded and said, "It should, it should!" Shi Suo, go and bring the good tea that Master Ben originally wanted to give to his father-in-law, as well as the jasper cake, mille-feuille cake, red bean cake and so on prepared for his mother-in-law! β
After a period of hectic preparations, several plates of exquisite snacks were placed on the table, and a small red clay stove was prepared to boil water and make tea, and Master Liu did not dare to sit still, so he stood at the table and waited. After a while, I saw two delicate maids on the stairs on the second floor helping an old woman walk down slowly.
The old woman was wearing an ebony cane, she was already old, wearing a brocade purple cotton jacket, combing her hair in a meticulous bun, inserting a jasper hairpin, carrying a treasure inlay to wipe her forehead, the corners of her eyes were slightly raised, her lips were extremely thin, and she didn't look very easy to get along with, but Master Liu felt that this was from the official family, just a housekeeper, and she had such a big bearing!
He only knew that it was Lord Liu, and he didn't know which official it was, but when he saw this grandmother, Master Liu felt that Lord Liu didn't have the first grade, and it was estimated that it was also the second grade!
Thinking that the third aunt in his house had such a background, every pore of Master Liu was expressing excitement and joy.
The mamma's gaze fell on this side accurately, and after a pause, she walked over.
"Mama, the contemptible person is the ...... of Jasper City"
Before Master Liu's words were finished, the maid beside the grandmother had already interrupted him unceremoniously: "Liu Jinsheng Master Liu, right?" The third aunt in your house, but her name is Yu'er? Last name Liu? β
"The girl is wrong, not my aunt. It's a wife, it's indeed surnamed Liu Mingyuer, there are three ...... in this Chinese New Year's Eve" Master Liu's heart moved, and he immediately raised the third aunt from a concubine to a wife.
"What, isn't it the third aunt?"
"Well, Liu is preparing to raise Yu'er as his wife."
While the maid and Master Liu were talking, the maid with a small mole at the corner of her mouth put a cushion under her armpit on the chair, helped her sit down, glanced at the snacks on the table, and whispered to her grandmother, "Grandma." Is there such a snack in this town? β
Master Liu heard this. Busy said: "This is brought by Liu from Jasper City, it is a famous spot in Jasper City, a fifty-year-old shop, it is said that when the Emperor Taishang Weifu visited Jiangnan privately." I have eaten these snacks. It's also full of praise. β
Mama looked at the snack. He said slowly: "The old man has heard of this. β
The maid said, "Then try it?" β
"Well, let's try two bites."
Master Liu was overjoyed in his heart, and felt that he had really done the right thing with these pastries. was about to go and get the pastry for Mama, the girl ring with a mole at the corner of his mouth picked him up, and he reached out and picked up a plate of jasper cake in front of Mama's eyes, Mama picked up a piece herself, took a bite, tasted it carefully, swallowed it, but didn't say anything, and hung Master Liu's heart.
"Master Liu? The old body is from the house of Lord Liu in Kyoto, and you can call the old body Qiong Mama. β
Master Liu suddenly affirmed in his heart, what the third aunt told him at the beginning was also Mama Qiong, but this Mama Qiong is quite energetic, she is so old and personally rushed to Jiangnan thousands of miles away, it came so fast, what speed does this carriage have!
"Mama Qiong, Liu heard Yu'er mention your old man, you ...... old man"
His words were interrupted again, and Mama Qiong said: "Lord Liu has already found out, our Miss Yu'er is an aunt in Liufu, you just said that you are going to raise Miss as a flat wife?" β
"Exactly!"
"Let's put it this way, I really wronged our young lady for my wife, but you didn't know the identity of the young lady at the beginning, and it is no wonder that you have to do a good job of the ceremony of being a flat wife when you go back this time."
"This nature, nature."
"Our Miss Yu'er gave birth to a little miss?"
"Yes, yes, my girl's name is Yunwei."
"Third in line?"
Master Liu thought to himself, this is really everything has been found out, could it be, it wasn't that the person he sent found out about Liu's Mansion and sent the news, but that Liu's Mansion himself had already found out, right? That's why it came so fast. Master Liu felt that his inference was correct, which made him even happier, because the other party took the initiative like this, which showed that Master Liu still cared about Yu'er! The higher Yu'er's status in the other party's mind, the happier he became.
"Yes, yes."
"The third lady is here too?" Mama Joan's expression finally changed a little.
Master Liu was a little depressed at this time, Yun Wei was really messing around, if she let Mama Qiong know that he put her down by herself, then I don't know if he would think that he didn't take Yun Wei too seriously!
He first got to Mama Qiong, and then hurriedly sent Shi Suo to pick up Rao Xuekong.
When Rao Xuekong arrived at the Yuelai Inn, Master Liu was nervous in Mama Qiong's indifferent gaze. He had a question that choked in his throat and he never dared to ask.
As soon as Rao Xuekong stepped into the Yuelai Inn, he saw this scene.
"Yunwei, Yunwei come here, come over and see Mama Qiong!" When Master Liu saw Rao Xuekong, he seemed to see a savior.
Mama Qiong immediately stood up, and the two maids hurriedly supported her.
"Little Miss?"
Rao Xuekong immediately understood when he saw this battle, couldn't it be that the rich and noble family of the third aunt in Kyoto had found it? They did meet Shi Suo, but Shi Suo saw that she had already come, and did not say anything to her.
"Who is this grandmother?" Rao Xuekong asked lightly.
Master Liu felt that her reaction was too cold, but Mama Qiong felt that this was exactly the demeanor that everyone should have, calm. (To be continued......)
