Chapter 579: Scandal
Qin Niang pursed her lips, why didn't she understand?
These people grew up in the south one by one, and they were immoral one by one, thinking that this cloth girl didn't give everyone a chance to breathe at all, and went directly to the Lu family to ask for an explanation.
She thought that Bu Shuyuan, a woman, should at least be more reserved, but she didn't expect her to be so direct!
"Let's go." Qin Niang couldn't sit down anymore, the two of them ate a little at random, and then got up and left.
Fang Yuanyuan knew that the Lu family and the Gu family had quietly sent people out of the city to look for people last night, but what was going on, she didn't have time to inquire, so she followed Qin Niang to the outside of the city early in the morning, and when she came back, she heard someone in Bu Shuyuan.
However, even if she was curious, she knew that she shouldn't ask more after looking at Qin Niang's face at this moment.
So, she stood up and followed her out of the restaurant.
After Qin Niang sent the people back to Fang's mansion, she went directly to the Gu family's old house.
This Bu Shuyuan went to the Lu family in such a high-profile way to explain the law, it is impossible for the people of the Gu family not to know that at this time, the old man Gu must not have returned from the academy yet, but the Qi family is at home.
As Qin Niang expected, Qi was indeed in the mansion, and she seemed to expect Qin Niang to come to her, so she stayed in her courtyard and did not go out.
"Presumably you're here to ask about Bu Shuyuan, right?" As soon as Qin Niang stepped into her courtyard door, Qi took the initiative to ask.
Bu Shuyuan didn't return overnight, although the Gu family could hide it for a while, they couldn't hide it for a lifetime, besides, that Bu Shuyuan himself was not a worry-free master.
After Qin Niang greeted the Qi family, she sat down opposite the Qi family by herself, and did not talk nonsense with her, nodding and saying: "Yes, I only heard about her falling into the trap when I went out hunting yesterday evening when I went back to my mother's house, but I didn't expect things to develop so quickly." ”
She just went out of the city early in the morning, and when she came back, the scandal flew all over the sky, if she didn't think to stop it, wouldn't the Gu family and the Lu family become a joke in the capital?
"Sister-in-law, I heard that Bu Shuyuan went directly to Lu's house by herself?" Qin Niang asked.
After Qi asked people to serve her tea, they sent everyone out, and she motioned for her to take a sip of tea.
Qin Niang's heart is full of Bu Shuyuan's affairs at the moment, where is she in the mood to drink tea? However, looking at Qi's calm and calm appearance, it seems that there is no uncontrollable chaos.
Thinking like this, Qin Niang's heart was settled, she raised the teacup and took a sip, moistened her throat, and then heard Qi Shi slowly speak: "This Bu Shuyuan is indeed not like a girl raised in an ordinary small portal, she acts in a neat style, she lives in the Gu family, and I let people stare at her." ”
Speaking of this, Qi's complexion became complicated, if this was really the bloodline of their Gu family, but since there were such disguised troubles one after another before the fight, Qi didn't dare to easily believe what he saw in his eyes.
"Since she came back from the Spring Banquet, she quickly made friends with a group of noble girls in Beijing, and I don't know how she did it, so she went out to hang out for two days, and when she came back, she received posts from Beppu's daughter one after another, inviting her to play together, although the Shi family and the Rong family are currently in the ring, but it has nothing to do with these noble girls who have fallen off the list."
So they got seven or eight men and went hunting in the woods outside the city.
It stands to reason that there are no dangerous forests in the Fangyuan of the capital for dozens of miles, even if it is a hunter, there are very few, after all, it is close to the capital, whether it is farming or doing some small business, it is very convenient to go out of the city and enter the city, and it is impossible to go to the mountains to hunt.
It's strange that there is still a trap in the forest where a few of them went, and no one else stepped on it, but the two of them stepped on it, and the secret guard of the Gu family came back to report that Bu Shuyuan was missing, and she still felt unbelievable.
After all, it was impossible for an ordinary girl to get rid of those well-trained secret guards, otherwise, how could she stay in the trap with Lu Zhiyang all night without anyone noticing.
After Qi briefly recounted the matter, the room suddenly fell silent again.
Qin Niang is not stupid, even if Qi's narrative is not mixed with any personal opinions, she also knows a little in her heart, it seems that this Bu Shuyuan is really problematic.
Did she set her sights on the Lu family early in the morning? Or is it that as long as she can tie up any of the Gu family, the Yang family, or the Lu family, her goal will be achieved?
Thinking like this, Qin Niang's heart became more and more uneasy.
"Originally, she was not allowed to go out because of this incident, but she didn't know how to sneak out over the wall, and she also avoided the eyes and ears of these guards in the house, and went to the Lu family in a bright light, and the Lu family didn't want to make things so ugly, so they asked her to be invited in."
The whole room was so quiet that only the sound of Qi's narration sounded from time to time, and the sound of porcelain colliding with the foam on the tea water with the lid of the teacup.
"Is she back now?" Qin Niang asked.
Qi shook his head: "After she went in, she didn't come out again, and our people couldn't follow in, so we could only wait, I want to see what tricks this Bu Shuyuan can make." ”
Qin Niang frowned, to be honest, this Bu Shuyuan acted quite a bit of the coolness of the children of the rivers and lakes, if she didn't have any bad intentions, she would be very willing to live in peace with her.
However, she is such a high-profile person in Beijing to make friends with noble daughters of a family and find a marriage for herself, which is very similar to a simple little woman who just wants to marry herself off quickly at this age.
After all, even if he grew up in the south, he is sixteen or seventeen years old after all, if he doesn't hurry up to find a good family for himself at this age, it will be difficult to marry in another year or two.
"Brother and sister don't have to worry, didn't Ah Chen still leave a few secret guards in Beijing? Presumably she couldn't make a fuss. Qi said, "The more she highlights her brightness in such a high-profile manner, the more it shows that she also wants to achieve her goal as soon as possible, and she doesn't want to delay." ”
As long as the other party is more anxious than them, then everything will be easy.
Qin Niang's mind was chaotic for a moment, and when she heard Qi's words, her heart suddenly calmed down.
Yes, it is she who cares about it, after all, the matter involves the Lu family, which is her mother's maiden family, if the Gu family is dragged down, then the Yang family will naturally not be able to get out of the way.
Qi Shi is right, Bu Shuyuan's style of acting like this either wants to make them think that she is just acting a little more flamboyant in order to find a good family in a hurry, so as to hide her true purpose; Or, it's like this, which means that she doesn't want to procrastinate, and she can't afford it.
After coming to this conclusion, Qin Niang also calmed down.
"My sister-in-law is right, it's a mule or a horse, you can always see it." Qin Niang quietly drank a few more sips of tea, looked at the sky, and then got up and said, "It's not too early, I still have important things in my house, so I won't sit with my sister-in-law for a long time." ”
Qi knew that she had just come back from outside the city, and she was busy, so it was inconvenient to keep her longer, so she got up and sent her off: "Leave these trivial things to your sister-in-law, you concentrate on your business, don't delay the war ahead." ”
She couldn't help with those things, so she could only try her best to control these things of the Gu family.
Qin Niang's heart warmed, and she hurriedly said: "Then, it's hard sister-in-law, after I make this batch of artillery, I will come to my sister-in-law to get together." ”
Qi nodded, sent her to the Yimen, and watched her get into the carriage, and then turned around and went back to his yard.
After Qin Niang returned to Gu's house, Steward Liu told her that the third girl of the Shi family was here again, but the hostess of the mansion was not there, and Steward Liu was not good at entertaining her, so he sent her away.
"What is this Shi Rong doing again?" As soon as she returned to Qinyuan, Qiu Tao muttered quietly while beating Qin Niang's shoulder.
"What else can I do, Miss gave Miss Rong Liu an idea, and now Miss Rong Liu has begun to mobilize the people of the whole city to sign up to do something within her power for the soldiers in front, this thing is so lively, and it is very exciting, where can Miss Shi San still sit still?" Qiu Xue snorted coldly and said.
As she said, Shi Rong really couldn't sit still, although the queen said that the manpower and financial resources of the competition were all up to her own ideas, so that she could show the ability of the person who competed, and she was also confident that with the financial resources of the Shi family, she would never lose to a Rongguo Houfu with an empty title.
However, she never thought that Rong Xi would come up with such a trick to attract people's hearts, this method seemed to be a bit famous, but she knew that Rong Xi was like this, not to mention that her image among the people in Beijing had been sublimated, and even the nobles in the palace had to praise her for her virtue.
How could she not be in a hurry?
After some inquiry, she learned that Rong Liu had also come to Gu Mansion, so she guessed that Qin Niang must have given her an idea, otherwise, with Rong Liu's brain, she would not have been able to think of such a way.
Therefore, Shi Rong couldn't wait for a moment and ran to Gu's house to ask to see Qin Niang, but Steward Liu told her that Qin Niang went out of the city early in the morning, and she didn't believe it at first, but then she thought about it, even if she went out of the city with Miss Fang, she naturally couldn't hide it.
So, she went back unwillingly, but in order to prevent missing it, she still left someone to guard outside the Gu house, and once she saw Qin Niang returning home, she immediately went back to report to her.
Therefore, less than half an hour after Qin Niang returned to the mansion, she heard a report from the porter that Miss Shi San was here.
Qin Niang looked at the sky, there was still a period of time before Old Man Gu sent the child back, so she asked the porter to lead the person to the side hall, preparing to meet her first.
When Qin Niang arrived, Shi Rong had been sitting inside for a while, and she could see the anxiety and restlessness on her face from a distance.
Qin Niang thought, both are children of the family, this Shi San girl and the Rong Liu girl I saw two days ago are indeed the same heaven and one earth, just with this bearing, Shi San girl is a few points behind the Rong Liu girl.
After observing for a while, Qin Niang raised her foot and stepped into the hall.
As soon as Shi Rong saw her, her eyes immediately lit up, and after she saluted Qin Niang, her expression was very eager to ask her something, but she pretended to be down-to-earth and generous, and drank tea with Qin Niang for a while before opening her mouth tentatively.
