Chapter 173: Zheng Yanxi is gone
() Qin Niang's eyes flashed, and she didn't speak for a while.
"Miss, this Tang Erniang is really a good skill, and she can even get the entry post alone." Qiu Xue smacked her tongue and said.
This single post, the official dependents below the third grade are not qualified to get it, even Tang Wan herself is not qualified to get it.
However, she herself is not qualified to enter alone, but she can get a separate post for Luo Qixia, I have to say, this is really a good skill.
"Don't worry about her, you just have to give her this year's questions quietly, and you don't have to worry about the others." Qin Niang took a sip of tea and said lightly.
"Yes."
There are still a few days before the art competition, Qin Niang's teahouse has also opened, without the medical hall next door, business is not bad, Qin Niang is thinking about finding a warmer weather to go out and see.
However, before it was quiet for two days, I heard Qiu Xue come back and report: "Miss, the second cousin of the Zheng family is missing." ”
Qin Niang's eyebrows jumped, and she asked in surprise: "How can you not see it?" Can't so many people in the Zheng family look down on a teenage girl? ”
Qiu Xue shook her head and said, "Miss, the person is not running away from the Zheng family, but running away on the way to Zhuangzi." ”
It turned out that since Qin Niang came to the door that day to find out what to say to Lord Zheng, after thinking about it, Lord Zheng felt that he couldn't continue to indulge like this.
Otherwise, Zheng Yanxi's younger sisters don't have to get married, and even the eldest daughter who has already married will be affected.
So, Lord Zheng sent someone to send Zheng Yanxi to live in Zhuangzi outside the city for a period of time, and when this matter was over, he would find a family for her to marry.
Unexpectedly, this Zheng Yanxi didn't know what kind of demon she had, and she didn't want to go, and in the end, she was knocked unconscious and carried into the carriage.
The house sent guards and a few maids to protect her all the way, and Zheng Yanxi woke up halfway through, saying that she was going to be gong, so she sent a nurse to follow her to the nearby forest.
Unexpectedly, when she entered the forest, Zheng Yanxi directly picked up a wooden stick and knocked the nurse unconscious, and when everyone realized that something was wrong, people no longer knew where to run.
"The Zheng family is crazy now, and I can't wait to send everyone in the house to find it, for fear of encountering a thief halfway, in case there is a good one, then Miss Zheng Jiabiao probably has only one way to go to the lake." Qiu Xue said, paused, and asked, "Miss, you said that Miss is a girl's house, where can she go?" ”
You need to know that in the wilderness, if something happens, her reputation will be ruined, and it will affect all the sisters who are out of the cabinet and have not been out of the cabinet.
Qin Niang's eyebrows twisted and asked, "When did this happen?" ”
Qiu Xue looked at the sky and said, "According to the servants of the Zheng Mansion, as soon as the morning dawns, the people are sent out, and they run away less than an hour after leaving the city, and it is about two or three hours from now." ”
Qin Niang's mind turned quickly, and then she got off the bed and said hurriedly: "Quick, help me change my clothes, prepare the carriage, and go back to Yang's mansion." ”
Qiu Tao's eyes widened, and she asked in surprise, "Miss, what are you doing back to Yang Mansion?" It is said that today's Mrs. Mu invited Mrs. Mu and Miss Mu to come to the house, and they are boiling tea in the house to enjoy the plum, and by the way to agree on the auspicious day of the zodiac and the specific wedding matters, we will go back rashly, will it not be good? ”
Qin Niang's eyebrows sank: "I can't take care of it much, I'm afraid that if I go back late, this marriage will really be yellow." ”
As she spoke, she dressed herself in her own house
The suitable robe was put down, Qiu Tao hurriedly went to find a jacket and skirt for her to wear, then put on a fur cape, covered a hat, and several people hurriedly walked out.
Qiu Xue had already ordered someone to put the carriage in place, she helped Qin Niang into the carriage, and then sat in the position of driving the carriage, waved the whip, and drove out of the mansion quickly.
"Miss, what does Miss Zheng Jiabiao's disappearance have to do with the marriage of the eldest son?" I was in a hurry to go out just now, and Qiu Tao didn't dare to ask more, but now that several people got into the carriage, Qiu Tao couldn't help but ask again.
"I said, are you stupid?" Mama Rui glanced at her angrily, "I see you very smart on weekdays, why can't your brain turn at this time, and you don't want to think about it, why did Miss Zheng Jiabiao run away?" ”
Qiu Tao looked at her blankly and said, "Don't you want to go to Zhuangzi?" ”
As soon as she spoke, she immediately thought of something, and immediately shut up.
Yes, Zheng Yanxi doesn't want to go to Zhuangzi, but if she escapes back to Zhengfu, she will still be sent to Zhuangzi when she returns, so she will definitely not return to Zhengfu stupidly, but will solve this problem fundamentally.
If you want to get rid of the way that Lord Zheng sends her to Zhuangzi, the only way is to find Yang Hong to marry her.
As long as Yang Hongken marries her, Lord Zheng naturally has nothing to say.
"Got it?" Mama Rui looked at her face and knew that she had figured it out.
Qiu Tao nodded.
The carriage was out of the city for an hour, and if it came back on foot, it would have to walk for at least two or three hours, and the time should not have arrived.
However, it cannot be ruled out that she met a kind person on the road to follow her, then she might have entered the city at this time, if she didn't arrive at the Yang Mansion before her, she didn't know what she would do in the end.
After all, Mrs. Mu and Miss Mu are in the house today, if this is embarrassing, maybe this family business will be yellow.
Zheng Yanxi must have known about this, so she desperately wanted to make the last death struggle.
The group rushed to the gate of Yang's mansion in a hurry, and when they saw that the door was empty, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Miss, it seems that Miss Zheng Jiabiao has not arrived yet." Qiu Tao lifted the curtain and glanced outside.
"Let's talk about it in the house first, let's give my mother and eldest brother a squeak first, so as not to make a real fuss for a while, and everyone will be caught off guard." Qin Niang said, and prepared to get out of the car.
Qiu Tao jumped down first and held her.
"Mama Rui, you stay here in the gatehouse, if you see your second cousin coming, let her be escorted in immediately, don't let her have a chance to shout at the door." Qin Niang confessed, and then led the rest of the maids and women to the house.
Fang Men saw that she was back, and after saluting respectfully, he sent someone to inform the Lu family.
The Lu family was busy preparing to entertain Mu's mother and daughter in the morning, and at this time, he had been accompanying Mrs. Mu to make tea and chat in the garden, and he didn't know about Zheng Yanxi at all.
Therefore, when she heard that the little girl said that Qin Niang had returned home, she was really surprised.
"Why is Qin'er free to come back today, isn't there something wrong?" Lu muttered, he wanted to get up and confess his guilt and go to see his daughter for a while.
I never thought that Mrs. Mu's ears were very good, and she heard the words of the little maid from a distance, and suddenly said, "Mrs. Gu is back?" That's just right, let her accompany Nian'er to walk around, so as not to accompany the two of us old people
It's boring. ”
When Mu Zhinian heard this, he said angrily: "What did your mother say, where are you getting old?" ”
Mrs. Mu is only in her early thirties, and she is well-maintained, and she does not look old at all, but women like to hear others praise themselves for being young and beautiful.
Therefore, Mrs. Mu was very relieved by her daughter, and when Lu saw that Mrs. Mu had spoken, it was not easy to distract her, so he asked Qin Niang to lead her directly to this garden.
After a while, Qin Niang came over.
"I've seen my mother, I've seen Mrs. Mu." After Qin Niang simply saluted them, she sat next to Mu Zhinian.
"Sister Qin, I haven't seen you for a few days, it seems that your complexion is much better." Mu Zhinian pulled her and said.
After the two exchanged a few words, Lu asked, "Qin'er, you suddenly returned home today, is there something wrong?" ”
Qin Niang glanced at Mrs. Mu and felt that it was better to spread out something to say, so she told Zheng Yanxi about escaping halfway.
The women present were all smart people, Qin Niang only said that Zheng Yanxi had run away, and they understood, one by one, their faces suddenly became a little bad.
"Mother, in case the second cousin really comes to the house to make trouble for a while, if you care about the sisterhood between you and your aunt, I am afraid that someone will write a book to impeach your father tomorrow, saying that he is not effective in the Qi family, and he is not strict in governing the family, and he will ...... when the time comes" She didn't continue, but the Lu family already understood.
The current situation of the Yang family is not good, even if Yang Yuanhai is now an official scholar and belongs to one of the six departments, but today's saints can't look down on the Yang family.
Although this dismissal is unlikely, if it is set aside, and you are grounded at home every day, isn't this worse than cutting officials and demoting?
"Mother, as the saying goes, there are two things, if you don't completely end her thoughts today, she doesn't know what disaster to bring to the family tomorrow, you and your aunt are sisters, and it will inevitably be affected when the time comes." The marriage of a family like theirs is both prosperous and loss-making.
Moreover, it is not good that even the Lu family will be affected.
For the sake of a daughter, it is really not worth implicating three big families.
Moreover, the Lu family has repeatedly tolerated Zheng Yanxi, and people may not be grateful, maybe they think that the Lu family will look down on her after marrying the Yang family.
For people who don't know how to be grateful, you don't need to give too many opportunities, and giving it once is considered to be benevolent and righteous.
"Mother understands, which is light and which is heavy, I still weigh it clearly, look at you, I still ran back on such a cold day." Lu Shi said, and hurriedly poured her a cup of excitement to warm her up.
"Then, today I will avoid Nian'er, and I will discuss it with you tomorrow." Mrs. Mu felt that it was really inappropriate for their mother and daughter to be here at this time.
If Zheng Yanxi went crazy for a while, and begged Mu Zhinian to raise his noble hand in public, what would the Mu family do then?
Being confined to such an entanglement for no reason is really not what Mrs. Mu wants.
Lu was just about to nod, when he heard a small guy running over quickly, and he shouted: "Madam, it's not good, Miss Cousin ......."
Because the little guy ran too fast, he couldn't breathe a word, and Lu Shi was really anxious when he heard it, and reprimanded: "Evening out your breath and then talking about it, what kind of body is it that you shout all the way!" ”
