Chapter 34, Everything is ready
On the second day when Dong'er was taken back to Flower Lane in a coma, the girl Li Mingshuo was looking for someone to buy was finally delivered, and the gatekeeper who watched the gate and the miscellaneous envoy who cleaned up the yard and sorted out the flowers and plants were also introduced.
The porter is a man about forty years old, short and stubby, honest and wooden, surnamed Qu, and everyone calls him Lao Qu; The miscellaneous envoy is an old lady in her fifties, with a kind face, measured speech and demeanor, surnamed Jin, who claims to have a fourteen or fifteen-year-old son who is apprenticed to the chef in Fuqing Restaurant, not far from Luohua Lane, to learn cooking skills.
Li Mingshuo saw that this Mother Jin was kind and kind, and he was neither humble nor arrogant when he raised his head, and he liked her very much.
The two girls who were bought, the taller one was originally named Yufeng, and the shorter one was called Gui Ying, Li Mingshuo felt tacky and renamed the two of them again, Yufeng was renamed Hanhua, and Gui Ying was renamed Xueying, all according to the artistic conception of Dong'er's name.
Hanhua is lively and clever, quite eye-catching, so she let her serve by the side of the housemother, and the people said that Xue Ying's mouth is clumsy and clever, and she has good cooking skills, so she will be a girl on the stove.
"Hanhua, Xueying." Li Moge muttered the name that the master had just given to the new girl, deliberately gave an extremely exaggerated shiver, grinned his teeth, and said with a cool breath: "It's so cold, it's cold, can't you give it a name like Chunhua and Chunlan, it sounds a little warmer." ”
Li Mingshuo glanced at him, didn't think about it, and said: "No, the master's name has the word winter in it, and the slave's name has the word spring in it, what do you want to do, do you want to come from winter to spring?" ”
"Hey, master, I found out that after you have this private club, this person has learned to be vassal, or change the name of me and Songzhu, my name is Ice Blade, Songzhu is called Frozen Pear, there is a plaque at the gate of our house, which is written with four big characters--------- "Saibei Cold Days", up and down the house, inside and out, all revolve around the name of Wan Girl, who dares to fight with Dong'er Girl will destroy it. ”
Li Mingshuo frowned and said: "One girl in one mouth, it used to work, but now it can't, in the future, you all have to call "madam" to set the record straight." ”
Li Moge reminded: "Master, when it comes to hearing and hearing correctly, the princess is your serious wife, you have to distinguish it somewhat, can't the princess is also your wife, this, well, this girl Wan is also your wife, you'd better add another word in front of this lady to distinguish it from the princess." ”
Li Mingshuo thought about it carefully, nodded and agreed: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, just call Mrs. Ru." ”
"Master, that's the written language, what do we call it verbally?"
Li Mingshuo tilted his head, tilted his face, frowned, bit his lower lip, rolled his eyes, thought for a long time, and came to the following sentence: "The eldest wife is the eldest lady, then the little wife is called the little lady, anyway, the little lady is many years younger than the eldest lady, and it is not unjust to call it." ”
Li Moge waited for a long time and thought that he could wait for another name that was as tasteful as Hanhua and Xueying, but he didn't expect it to be so popular, he swallowed his saliva, and said helplessly: "Okay, then we will all call Miss Wan the little lady in the future." ”
After a while, Li Moge reminded his master again: "Master, I don't understand what the gesture of the mute child in the little lady's mother's house yesterday actually means, I translated it for you randomly." Now that I think about it, it seems that people don't want us to take away the little lady, should we go back and tell others, so that their mother's family can rest assured. ”
Li Mingshuo frowned and added: "Not only do we have to go back and say it, we also have to buy something to visit her mother's family, after such a big beauty comes back, it is not a matter if a penny of bride price money is not paid." ”
"Then, master, let's go talk to them now, while the little lady hasn't woken up yet, there are people at home to serve, let's tell them early, and they will be at ease early."
The master and servant hit it off, one rode a tall horse, Li Moge's horse also carried a few fine fabrics that had just been bought from the silk shop, and Li Mingshuo carried one of the two gold bars sent by Yang Boqing, and quickly ran away to Shili Street.
At first, the visitors thought that the family had gone out to buy groceries, but after a while, someone would come back and open the door, and the two of them waited patiently.
After waiting for about an hour, none of the Wan family came back, and the master and servant muttered a little in their hearts, and Li Moge saw that the old lady who was watching the child next to him helped the child who was just about to learn to walk passing by, so he got off the horse and went to inquire about the news.
As soon as the old lady heard that Mo Ge was inquiring about the news of the Wan family, she picked up the child and shook it back and forth and coaxed Li Moge and said: "This descendant, don't mention the matter of the Wan family, it's really a disaster---
Li Moge hurriedly peeled a piece of candy and gave it to the child in the old lady's arms, so that the old lady could continue to speak unhindered.
The old woman complained to Li Moge bitterly: "The night before yesterday, there was a strong wind, and their young lady and little girl were blown into the lake by the wind and drowned in someone else's house; Last night, his family's eldest wife who cut her hair for the nun was on fire in the temple, and the other nuns were fine, but their eldest wife slept deeply, did not escape, and let the smoke smoke to death in the house, this morning someone in the temple came to report the funeral, our neighbors knew about it, but their family locked the door, I don't know where to go, but the poor lord of their family went to the south not long after, the family was in chaos like this, and I couldn't find a bitter master to come out to cook, Fortunately, there are boarding houses for the children to be buried, and the eldest lady is buried in the temple, and there is a good home, so it is gone, alas, the evil is ......."
Li Moge returned to Li Mingshuo in a panic like a lost dog, repeated the words of the neighbor to his master, and added a sentence at the end: "Master, I have never seen such a bloody and bloody collection of deposits, sword shadows and swords, you have really opened my eyes these days----"
Li Mingshuo was also shocked when he heard these appalling news about Wanjia, and when he came back to his senses, he thought that everything was done by Yang Boqing, so he didn't say a word, turned his horse's head, and went directly to Yang's mansion.
When he arrived at Yang's mansion, the door wanted to report, Li Mingshuo had a strained face, and he insisted on not letting the doorman report, so he broke into Yang's house directly and went straight to Yang Boqing's room.
The doorman knew that he was the master of the court, and he didn't dare to forcibly stop him, so he had to run with him to the courtyard, while begging beside him, "Let us report, let us report".
Li Mingshuo didn't seem to hear anything, so he just walked forward with a stiff face, and walked all the way to Yang Boqing's study.
That Yang Boqing sent someone to intimidate Aunt Song's mother and daughter last night, and after Aunt Song's mother and daughter moved out of Wanjia and went to the countryside, he sent someone to guard near the gate of Wanjia to watch the movement.
Unexpectedly, on this day, Dong'er did not go back, Li Mingshuo's master and servant went to the door to deliver the bride price in large bags, and the spies hurriedly went back to tell him the news, he expected that Li Mingshuo would come to him, so he waited for him at home calmly.
