80, the old grandmother in Tsing Yi
Xiao Yuanyou raised his eyebrows slightly, and said calmly, "This official never bullies people, and the same is true for prisoners, if you want to say it, you can say it, if you don't say it, it's just a little hard work to continue to investigate." β
As he spoke, he bowed his head to Old Lady Leng, "You can take it away, I hope you will keep the promise you said." β
Old Lady Leng hurriedly gratefully saluted Xiao Yuanyou and Yan Wuming.
is willing to hand over people to the Leng family, instead of really bringing them to the government, which has already given the Leng family a lot of face.
Who is this face rushing to, she is naturally clear.
The Leng family, as the head of Shilin, not to mention the female dependents, even the men have never been in and out of the official prison.
If you really want to let your granddaughter in, the reputation of the Leng family can be said to have plummeted.
Now that Xiao Yuanyou and Yan Wuming are willing to raise their hands, how can Old Lady Leng not be grateful.
Leng Furong cried profusely, she was willing to be taken by the government, it was just a period of detention, and when she came out, she could still be free.
But if he was sent to Zhuangzi by the Leng family, he really couldn't come out until he died.
In order not to go to the countryside Zhuangzi, the bamboo tube poured out everything like beans,
"At that time, I was walking in the garden, and when I walked to the side of the rockery, I heard a voice talking, and I was hesitating to leave, when I heard a woman say, 'This poison is very rare, and it must be successful in one fell swoop.'"
"I thought this was an infighting in the Tai'an Hou Mansion, and I was afraid of being discovered, so I wanted to leave even more, and another young voice behind me asked, 'Miss Xin Qi, she likes flower tea?' No wonder Madame took out all the tea she had made herself. ββ
Leng Furong didn't have a good time after Kangping's incident.
The Leng family was very cold to her, and her parents stayed in Shaoxing to take care of the housework, and the only one to rely on Mrs. Leng was cold.
She wanted to reconcile with Xin Yi, but Xin Yi not only refused, but also revealed her personal relationship with Ming Yujue.
In the academy, although the girls who used to play together still seem to be playing together, most of them are not very sincere.
In the past, they followed Kangping because Kangping was the county lord and powerful, but Leng Furong himself was a person with a criminal record.
How much respect can you get from these people?
For example, today, except for Ba Miaoyu and another girl, everyone else turned around other people.
Those girls knew that this was the Hou Mansion of Tai'an, and Granny Xin Yi was the hostess here, and she would not lose face to her master no matter what.
Originally, she could not come to the Hou Mansion of Tai'an, but the secret thoughts about Xin Yi urged her to beg Mrs. Leng, just to see if Xin Yi was really as happy as Mrs. Tai'an Hou was outside.
Why is Xin Yi so lucky? Can you get anything?
After arriving at the Tai'an Hou Mansion, when he saw the nobles in the room and the ostentatious tone of Mrs. Tai'an Hou when she said Xinyi, I suddenly panicked even more, and I thought about going to the garden for a walk.
That's when I heard the scene behind the rockery.
She heard that the first two people were plotting to poison Xin Qi, and it was a rare poison.
At that moment, Leng Furong's whole person became excited, poison, Xin Qi, Xin family, Tai'an Hou Mansion, Xiao Yuanyou, all of them were connected in one place.
I didn't expect that there were so many people who hated Xin Qi, even the Tai'an Hou Mansion, even if Mrs. Tai'an Hou liked it, it was fatal.
She pinched the small paper bag that had been in the sleeve cage, which she had been putting on her body since Xin Yi had a stomach upset.
I haven't found a chance to make Xin Yi ugly.
People's obsessions are so terrible, the more you can't get something, the more you want to get it.
She is the same, she wants to make Xin Yi ugly, and she doesn't bring croton powder with her all the time, as if this is her last comfort.
She quietly hid in the dark, and after the two of them left, she returned to the banquet, called Yuyan, and gave some orders.
That's when Yuyan and the little maid met in the back, and Yuyan succeeded.
"What does the person who met the little maid look like?" Yan asked namelessly.
Leng Furong thought about it carefully, "I'm a little old, wearing green clothes, with a long face, and a hoarse voice, not the kind of hoarseness that I have, as if my voice is broken, and my body shape is ......."
Yan Wuming listened to Leng Furong's description while drawing a portrait on the paper, Xiao Yuanyou stood beside him, looking at the portrait slowly appearing on the paper, frowning, and a little puzzled.
Xin Yi listened to Leng Furong's description, and at first felt that this person was somewhat familiar, but she turned around all the people she knew and was familiar with, and shook her head again.
She frowned and said bluntly,
"Leng Furong, you said that it was because those people wanted to harm me that they would fish in troubled waters, but even without me today, you are still an accomplice."
Leng Furong didn't expect that she had already told the truth and admitted that she had done bad things for excusation, but she was still crowned as an accomplice.
She defended unconvincedly, "Why am I an accomplice?" I did something wrong, and you don't have to press the blame on me again and again. β
Xin Yi was too lazy to bother with her, if it weren't for the face of the old lady Leng, she wouldn't have bothered to say,
"You said it yourself, at first you heard those two people talking about poison, and you thought it was the infighting in the Tai'an Hou Mansion, did you think about going back to remind your aunt?
You don't, you just want to leave, you don't get involved in these things.
Have you ever thought that if you leave without incident, those people will die if they succeed! β
"You don't want to go to Zhuangzi, your life, your freedom is a big thing, isn't it someone else's?"
When Leng Furong heard this, her face turned blue and white for a while, as if she was angry, and she seemed to be weak-hearted.
Others: "???? β
Wait, isn't the point of this matter that Xin Yi himself was almost poisoned?
How did she get crooked into the infighting in the Tai'an Hou Mansion?
But why do you still think what she said makes sense?
Old Lady Leng looked at her granddaughter with a disappointed expression, if it was said that the chin beans were given to Xin Yi because they had a grudge, but the people of Furong and the Hou Mansion of Tai'an never had a grudge!
It's a person who hears such a thing and will remind Mrs. Tai'an Hou, but the granddaughter doesn't!
She said disappointedly, "Grandmother thinks that distinguishing between right and wrong is a truth that you should learn since childhood, and although you have done something wrong, it is not that you have not been given a chance to change." β
"It's okay to make mistakes, it's important to recognize your mistakes and correct them, but what about you?"
Old Lady Leng's tone became stern,
"Fleur, grandmother will last say to you, you remember, it's not so terrible to have a bad reputation in the eyes of outsiders, it's terrible to have a bent backbone."
Leng Furong was embarrassed by the words, staring at the ground, forgetting to cry, and wishing to find a crack to get into.
The old lady Leng sighed and solemnly gave Mrs. Tai'an Hou,
"Madam, I'm really sorry today, I messed up a good banquet, and when the matter is over, the old body will definitely come to the door to make amends, and today I will take people away with shame."
Mrs. Tai'an Hou looked at Mrs. Leng, and sighed secretly in her heart, did she have the heart to be ruthless?
"Weiwei, I really like it, I originally wanted to introduce her to everyone today, but if something like this happens, I can only wait for next time."
"This time, for the sake of the old lady's face, I don't care, my daughter-in-law, if she has made a mistake, come to tell me that she will never allow people to provoke again and again like this.
It's not that I'm protecting my shortcomings, if I am asked to encounter this kind of thing, this punishment will not be passable. β
Hearing these words, not only did the old lady Leng close her eyes in pain, but also the other ladies present weighed a few points in their hearts, thinking that they would go home and tell their family to be kind to Miss Xin Qi.
Mrs. Tai'an Hou clearly told everyone that slapping Xin Yi in the face is slapping her in the face.
Coupled with Xiao Yuanyou's pampering just now, let everyone know that the mother and son are really very satisfied with Xin Yi.
Lady Tai'an Hou is powerful, who in the capital doesn't know? In the case of everyone's opposition, he left the Xiao family, and then went to travel through the mountains and rivers like no one, and sometimes returned to Beijing to accompany his son for a while.
Later, he turned around and married Tai'an Hou again, and became the home of the Hou Mansion, who didn't praise him when he went out.
Everyone is more and more envious of Xin Yi, his family background is good, it is good to find a son-in-law, and he doesn't even have to worry about the relationship between his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Originally, many people who saw Xin Yi for the first time saw that she was beautiful and generous, and secretly sighed that Xiao Yuanyou was lucky, and felt that the Xin family was really crazy, how could such a good little girl be willing to give Xiao Yuanyou, an old man?
But it turns out that the Xin family is really discerning!
It is better for men to be steady, and it is even more difficult to find mother-in-law love.
Of course, some people think that Xiao Hou's wife is not a wife, and the concubine is not a concubine's princess stepmother-in-law, and they are a little gloating, what is the use of being a good mother-in-law, after all, she has already remarried.
When you really get married, don't you have to face those people like Xiao Hou? The ultimate pleasure is followed by the ultimate sorrow. No one can escape this law.
Mrs. Leng took Leng Furong away, and the other ladies saw that there was no drama to watch, and people knew each other, so they didn't need Mrs. Tai'an Hou to speak, and said goodbye on their own.
For a moment, the originally lively mansion fell silent.
Originally, Princess Fu wanted to take the county lord of Baoping back, but the county lord of Baoping refused to live or die, and wanted to play with the seventh girl of Zi Xin for a while.
handed over the county lord of Baoping to Xin Yi, Princess Fu was still very relieved, but she still told Baoping not to make trouble for Xin Yi.
The lord of Baoping repeatedly promised not to cause trouble, and also pulled Xin Yi as a guarantor.
Mrs. Tai'anhou sat in a chair with her heart covered.
"Auntie is not feeling well?" Xin Yi asked with concern.
Mrs. Tai'an Hou sighed, "The original good life was made like this, and it almost hurt you, my mother feels uncomfortable...... As long as I think about it, I can't eat anything in my heart, and I'm afraid that I won't be ashamed to see your family. β
Xin Yi blushed a little, she called 'aunt', and Mrs. called herself 'mother'.
She smiled obediently, "The villain didn't succeed either, although there was still someone who didn't catch it, but in the end Leng Furong found out." β
Xiao Yuanyou sat down in the vacant seat next to Xin Yi, "Mother, Weiwei and I both went out early today, and we haven't eaten yet." β
Mrs. Tai'an Hou stopped sighing, her mood was very complicated, she rubbed her temples, stood up with the hand of the maid beside her, and turned her head to Xiao Yuanyou and said,
"Son, you're right, Weiwei must not even have drunk saliva until now."
"Come on, go to the big kitchen and give instructions, let them go up and down soft and glutinous, not informal, soft and rotten braised pork or other glutinous rice dumplings."
If something bad happens, if you don't find a delicious meal, life will be too difficult!
After Mrs. Tai'anhou, who had a difficult life, gave her instructions, she didn't forget to pull Xin Yi,
"Weiwei, you're still young, the cold crying just now, you didn't listen well, your body is a little weak, what if your spirit is affected?"
So I still followed the old mother to the yard to rest, and the two of them could still whisper.
Xiao Yuanyou, "......"
The mother's sense of revenge is too strong, he just wants to stutter Weiwei, so she wants to run away with Weiwei directly!
After consciously establishing an image of a cute and amiable mother-in-law in front of Xin Yi, Mrs. Tai'an Hou gently took Xin Yi's hand and asked her to follow.
She really likes it the more she looks at it, this girl is good-looking and has a good temperament, unlike her bear child, who is angry with her as soon as she opens her mouth.
"Thank you, aunt, I'm not tired." Xin Yi smiled obediently, "It's my aunt, I must have been busy with the banquet for a few days, so I didn't want to go slightly." β
Mrs. Tai'anhou treats people kindly, speaks less formally, and speaks interestingly and funny, making Mrs. Tai'anhou laugh again and again.
Mrs. Tai'anhou, who was in a happy mood, asked her to bring food here, and left with the maid.
But after a while, they heard the voice of joy and secret joy in the next room,
ββ¦β¦ What did you say? Old Madam Gao actually likes to eat boiled fat sausages? Gee...... Tut...... What a ......."
Mrs. Gao is the emperor's nurse, and the Gao family has a half-corner foothold in the capital by relying on her, but I didn't expect it to ......
After a while, another voice said, "...... What the? Lord Qi's family enshrines his child's deceased child? How do you make offerings? A peach a day? β
It's not a monkey, what kind of peach are offered......
The guests sitting in the next wing room were Yan Wuming and Lord Baoping.
Yan Wuming asked the official to bring the relevant evidence back to the yamen, and he didn't leave like the lord of Baoping.
The good name is to congratulate Xiao Yuanyou and Xin Yi on their marriage.
Hearing that Yan Wuming was going to stay, Mrs. Tai'an Hou was a little overjoyed, and immediately asked the two of them to go to the next room, saying that there were some things to say to Xiao Yuanyou and Xin Yi.
At first, Xin Yi thought that Mrs. Tai'anhou wanted to find out the truth, but she didn't expect to leave after saying a few words.
People really want to listen to the virtual reality, but it is not hers, but Yan Wuming is following to listen to the virtual reality of the entire capital......
No wonder I heard that Yan Wuming was going to stay, and the wrinkles in the corners of his eyes came out with a smile.
Xin Yi buried his head, Xiao Yuanyou coughed lightly, the sound in the room finally stopped, and Mrs. Tai'an Hou was reluctant,
"Hey, why are you busier than your senior brother? Remember to come back more often in the future. β
In that tone, Xin Yi inexplicably thought of what the old bustard of the Qinglou said to the prostitute in the script, "Remember to come often......
She hung her head deeply, the idea was too much of a rebellion.
Mrs. Tai'an Hou reluctantly left, and the wine and food also came up, and several people were indeed hungry.
Yan Wuming had just entered the city, and he didn't go anywhere, so he came to the Hou Mansion in the dust.
When Xin Yi went out in the morning, in order to reduce the number of times he went to the toilet, he didn't dare to drink too much water.
As for the county lord of Baoping, just like Mrs. Tai'an Hou thought, if such a bad thing happened, let's eat something to make up for it.
Xiao Yuanyou was purely afraid that his fiancΓ©e would be hungry.
After the meal was served, there was a mushroom soup, milky white and creamy, topped with chopped green onions.
He put the bowl of soup in front of Xin Yi, "This soup nourishes the stomach, and it is what the cook on my mother's side is best at." β
Xin Yi took it easily, his eyebrows and eyes crooked.
"Why did you come here so quickly?" Yan Wuming leaned lazily on the chair, pinching the wine cup and turning around.
The atmosphere between the two on the other side was so good that he couldn't tell whether Xin Yi was so obsessed with solving the case before, whether he was really obsessed with this way, or the man who could solve the case.
"I heard that you are very good at solving cases, and I will meet you when I come here." Xiao Yuanyou drank two glasses of wine, and there were more red clouds on Jun's face, and with a faint smile, he looked soft and amiable.
Yan Wuming: "????? β
Senior brother, do you think you're here to compete? Will it be? Who still doesn't know who?
Xin Yi and the county lord of Baoping naturally didn't notice anything wrong between the two, and the two of them drank soup and whispered on the side, laughing from time to time.
"You're not authentic, I've only been away for a long time, and you just pulled people to your own house." Yan Wuming saw that the two little girls didn't care about them at all, so he complained about Xiao Yuanyou.
"Did I promise you?" Xiao Yuanyou and Yan Wuming grew up together since childhood, and when they saw his look, they knew that he was angry, but he didn't blame himself.
Yan Wuming was shocked again, and said in surprise, "You are not Xiao Yuanyou I know." β
He was quite worried, "I finally found an interesting little girl, how about you comfort me." β
Xiao Yuanyou took a sip of wine and said lightly, "If you don't think I'm deliberately stimulating you, it's not impossible." β
Yan Nameless, "......"
Please, shut up!
"That's it." Yan Wuming can only be said to be interested in Xin Yi, and there is not much love between men and women, and because Xiao Yuanyou is happy, he is not sad and sad at the moment. It's just a pity.
"However, I'm a little curious, why did the Xin family agree to your marriage?"
The Xin family picks a son-in-law, but it is very harsh, Xin Yi's sister Xin Zhu was a family affair, but the man repeatedly promised that he would not accept concubines or concubines in the future, and he would have no children at forty, which made the Xin family relieved.
Knowing this, he had already asked his aunt, Princess Ying, to come to the door to propose.
If the Xin family really doesn't agree, even if the emperor comes forward, it may not be successful.
Of course, Xiao Yuanyou would not think that the emperor came forward to the Xin family to agree, he was also a little curious, and hesitated, "Probably because I look better?" β
Yan Wuming sneered and said disdainfully, "Is it because I lost to you because I don't look good?" β
Don't be funny!
The four of them had a meal to their heart's content, and because Xiao Yuanyou did not agree, Yan Wuming did not meet the request to borrow wine to kill his sorrows.
After the meal, he talked about the person who met the little maid.
"This person always feels a little familiar, but I don't know who it is." Yan Wuming took the portrait drawn according to Leng Furong's description and looked at it repeatedly.
"Do you think it will be a national teacher......
Yan Wuming is a man after all, although the atmosphere is open, the male and female tables are still separated, and as long as they are decent people, they will not stare at the women.
Although he felt something familiar, he was still not sure.
"Alright. It's not early today, don't you still have to go to Your Majesty to report on your work? Go early, so as not to be known by the imperial history and say that you are derelict in your duties. Without waiting for Yan Wuming to finish speaking, Xiao Yuanyou interrupted him simply and rudely.
Yan Wuming thought that it was indeed a little unusual, he took the portrait into his arms, but was taken away by a hand in the oblique,
"I asked the people from Dali Temple to print a copy, and then I looked for this person together." Xiao Yuanyou's face was as authentic as usual.
Yan Wuming's eyes flickered, and he didn't take the portrait back, but dusted off the robe on his body, "Then it's troublesome for you, I want to come to Dali Temple with help, and I can find it in heaven and earth." β
Xin Yi stood on the side, looking at the portrait, just feeling a little familiar, but he couldn't say where it looked.
However, the lord of Baoping on the side shouted in surprise, pointed to the portrait, and stammered, "This...... This...... It's not ......"
Seeing this, Yan Wuming walked over quickly, took the hand of the county lord of Baoping and walked out, while walking, he also covered her lips with his hand,
"This ...... This...... What the...... Can you recognize people who can't even recognize the whole way? β
Lord Baoping: What is it? Do those who don't know their way have no human rights? Can't even recognize people's faces? Obviously, she even knew that Lord Yan had a few moles on her face.
Moreover, she is very familiar with that person, although the face is a little different, but the clothes and body shape are exactly the same as the young mother-in-law next to the national teacher.
Before the lord of Baoping County finished speaking, she was interrupted by Yan Wuming, Xin Yi was a little inexplicable, she opened her mouth and asked Xiao Yuanyou, "Does Baoping know who this person is?" β
After all, Princess Fu often takes the lord of Baoping to various families to attend banquets, and there must be a lot of people who have seen her, maybe she has seen it next to a nobleman.
"Why didn't Lord Yan let her finish? Since Baoping knows, isn't that twice the result with half the effort? No need to look around. β
Xiao Yuanyou took Xin Yi's little hand and said gently, "I'll send you back first, didn't the junior brother say it, Baoping Road can't be recognized, where can I recognize people." β
The pot makes Yan nameless, it's always right.
Xin Yi squinted at Xiao Yuanyou, hehe, men are all virtuous.
On the way back, Xin Yi rode in a carriage, and Xiao Yuanyou rode a horse to accompany him outside.
Xin Yi lifted the curtain from time to time to say a few words to her fiancΓ© outside, and by the way, she took a look at the street scene outside.
The streets are full of pedestrians and lively.
Xin Yi's gaze wandered aimlessly in the crowd, while talking to Xiao Yuanyou, when she passed by the mouth of an alley and saw the big red lantern hanging high inside, she asked Xiao Yuanyou,
"Fifth brother, what kind of alley is that? How can you hang a red lantern like the New Year......"
The carriage was moving very slowly, Xiao Yuanyou glanced at the red lantern and said, "That's the land of fireworks." β
Xin Yi was stunned, the land of fireworks, that is the Qinglou.
She has read a lot of words written about Qinglou women in the book, she doesn't quite understand what kind of livelihood it is, and she knows that there are many women singing and dancing and having fun with men, which is a very special place to exist.
Her eyes are shining, and next time she must go inside to see what kind of place it is.
The carriage was about to leave the alley, and she wanted to look at it again, but when her eyes fell on the distant alley, she suddenly shouted, "Stop...... Parking ......"
She didn't dare to take her eyes off the man, but the window was too small for her to get out, and she jumped down from the carriage desperately, and ran towards the figure like crazy.
The man seemed to have spotted her, stunned for a moment, then pushed through the crowd and walked forward quickly.
"Stop!" Xin Yi blended into the crowd at once, there were many people, and the person couldn't walk fast, this was the street again, there was no place to hide, and he was about to approach that person, Xin Yi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and shouted loudly,
"The mama in Tsing Yi in front is my family's fugitive slave, everyone help stop it."
The grandmother in green clothes, such a feature is too obvious, and someone heard the shout and immediately surrounded her.
Several people surrounded them, but they didn't expect that before they could get close to Mama Tsing Yi, they were pushed by a huge force and took several steps back.
A few middle-aged men looked at the mama in green clothes in disbelief, this is a fugitive slave? It's clearly a heroine.
Because she was surrounded, the grandmother couldn't go, Xin Yi finally caught up, and suddenly, she finally saw the appearance of the grandmother in Tsing Yi clearly, and her expression became more and more excited.
"Don't go, old grandma, don't go."
The old woman withdrew her hand, looked at Xin Yi with a complicated expression, and dodged into an alley.
It was when there were the most people on the street, the old grandmother's speed was very fast, and Xin Yi's speed was not slow, but after she pushed through the crowd and entered the alley, there was still no trace of the old grandmother.
She stood in the silence of the alley, with the noise of the street behind her.
Xin Yi suddenly cried bitterly.
She sat on the ground like a child, cried with her eyes closed, and cried profusely, and the old grandmother would always come to comfort her at this time.
"Okay, don't cry." Behind her, someone finally spoke, and his voice was a little hoarse.
Xin Yi opened her eyes and saw the old woman in Tsing Yi standing in front of her, with a helpless face.
She stood up happily, "Old Grandma...... It's really you. β
The old grandmother smiled and nodded, "Xiao Xinyi has grown up." β
Xin Yi nodded tearfully, "Yes, I've grown up, Grandma, do you know the news of my master?" β
Although the parchment scroll and grandmother said that Master had met with an accident, her intuition told her that Master was not dead!
Since the old grandmother is here, maybe she knows the news of the master.
The old grandmother kept looking at Xin Yi with a smile, and when she heard this, she said, "Come here, I'll tell you ......."
Xin Yi was overjoyed, sure enough, the master is not dead, is he?
She walked towards the old grandmother, only a few steps away, and suddenly heard a frightened voice from the entrance of the alley, "Slightly...... Be careful......"
It's the fifth brother, Xin Yi is very happy, the old grandmother has found it, and the master is about to find it, she wants to share the news with the fifth brother.
Sure enough, the fifth brother is her nobleman.
She waved at Xiao Yuanyou, motioned for him to come over, and walked towards the old grandmother without stopping.
"Grandma......" Xin Yi was full of smiles, like a spring flower blooming in the wind in spring, tender and trembling.
The corners of the old grandmother's smiling lips moved, and the wrist in the wide sleeve hem flipped over, and the cold light flashed!
