Chapter XXXVII
"Master, where are you going, why did you just come and leave?" Xu Yingying's voice remembered behind Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin stopped awkwardly, turned around and smiled, "I see you chatting happily, I'm afraid of embarrassment, haha." ”
Xu Yingying smiled, "What are you embarrassed about, are you surprised to see me here." ”
"No, no, I just returned to the city, and when I saw that you were not in the house, I came to see Mrs. Wang."
Xu Yingying looked at Xiao Jin's embarrassed state, and she couldn't say anything if she complained, after all, looking at his expression, she must have cared about her, put down her burden, and said with a smile, "Come in quickly, it's like a thief, sneaky." ”
When Mrs. Wang heard Xu Yingying's words, she was extremely unnatural, and her face was about to be buried in her chest.
Wang Er, who followed behind, appeared in front of everyone with a wine resistance, and seeing the strange atmosphere, he glanced at Xiao Jin and said, "Master, what's wrong with you, what are you doing at the door." “
Xiao Jian said unnaturally, "The door is cool." ”
Xu Yingying saw that Wang Er was carrying wine, "Don't come in soon, it's just time for lunch." “
walked in front of Xiao Jin and pulled him into the courtyard, from beginning to end, completely in the posture of a hostess.
At this time, the person Xiao Jin wanted to see the most was probably Hu Xiancheng, and he was also curious about who told Xu Yingying about Mrs. Wang, and stared at Wang Er, Wang Er saw the adults looking at him, shook his head slightly, and signaled that it was not him.
Xu Yingying saw Xiao Jin's restrained appearance and said, "What's the matter, master, you have such an expression as soon as you enter the door, do you dislike me for being here?" If you dislike me and get in the way, I'll go back to the house." “
Seeing Xu Yingying's face change, she looked at Mrs. Wang, who had not spoken on the side, and said, "Don't, I didn't just come back, it's hot and panicked, it's really annoying, it's hot." ”
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she quickly found a reason and said, "The master is afraid that it is very hot, so the concubine will go to the house to get some well water, and the lady just sent some watermelons, and I will break them to relieve the heat for the adults." After speaking, he pulled the two maids down, and Wang Er saw that he was going to be a light bulb, so he hurriedly said, "Leave this coolie to me, I'll come, I'll come." So saying, he chased after him.
"Everyone is gone, if you want to scold, scold." Xiao Jin looked at Xu Yingying and said.
"Hey, I'm really bored in the house alone, so I want to go to the suburbs to find you, Xiao Jian knew that you were busy, so he told me about Mrs. Wang, and asked me to come and talk to her, but this Mrs. Wang is a poor person."
"I was very angry, but after I came, when I saw Wang Yunyun's appearance, I was angry again." Looking at Xiao Jin's guilty look, Xu Yingying continued, "You can't give up from the beginning to the end, otherwise you will really be even more brute than that Yao Zhaonian." ”
Xiao Jin heard Xu Yingying say this, and was a little curious, "Aren't you angry?" ”
"Angry, but what's the use of being angry, do you want to drive her away?" After speaking, Xu Yingying actually cried without warning, presumably very aggrieved, there were many people just now, and she kept holding on, but she didn't expect that the first time she came, she bumped into Xiao Jin, so how could she not be sad.
Xiao Jin heard her cry and hugged her guiltily, "It's all my fault." ”
"Why didn't you tell me? Before you married me, you learned to hide Jiaojiao in the golden house, do you not care about my feelings at all. While crying, he patted Xiao Jin's back.
Xiao Jin felt that his clothes were wet with Xu Yingying's tears, and he was full of guilt and kept comforting.
I don't know how long it took, the two of them kept hugging like this, it was very quiet, Wang Er and the two maids were holding the fruit plate, and when they saw the appearance of the two of them, they quietly put down the watermelon and went down.
When Xiao Jin saw someone, she coughed and let go of Xu Yingying, Xu Yingying also found that everyone was back, she knew that she was blushing and panicking, so she beat Xiao Jin and went down to wash.
After such a fuss just now, the previous awkward atmosphere is gone.
At noon, the sun was very hot, and he didn't let go of a shade, Xiao Jin wiped the sweat on his forehead, ate watermelon in his mouth, and muttered, "What about the two of them?" ”
Xu Yingying's maid was familiar with Xiao Jin, and took the initiative to say, "Sister Yingying saw that Mrs. Wang was going to pack up her things and leave the house, so she went to catch her, and the two were talking in the house." ”
"Hey, what's going on", seeing Xu Yingying holding Wang Yunyun's hand and coming out, I only heard Xu Yingying say loudly, "When are you going to talk, can this watermelon be used as lunch?" You two don't want people to serve food soon. ”
After eating, Xiao Jin pulled Wang Er back to the suburban camp, this is going to stay any longer, Xiao Jin is afraid that the harmonious picture that will not appear will be gone, and it is better that he is not there. Running back to the outskirts without stopping.
On the Guizhou Governor's Palace, there are two letters on the table of Mo Ke that have just been opened, one is from the emperor, and the other is from the pearl of the current dynasty, the content of the two letters is completely different, but they both say the same, Linxian alternate magistrate, Xiao Jin.
Mingzhu's letter, he understands, there are grievances, a petty official of the ninth grade, find some excuses, and do it, but what he can't understand is the emperor's letter, it stands to reason that this promotion matter, the emperor sent a holy decree to the ministry, no, why bother.
The point is that the two letters are about the same person, which gives Mock a headache and doesn't know what to do with it.
It stands to reason that he should listen to the emperor and ignore Mingzhu, but there are two reasons why he has to consider Mingzhu's thoughts, one is the relationship between him and Mingzhu, but because he has been wavering in his position on Wu Sangui, the emperor has long had the idea of changing him, it is Mingzhu who has been protecting him, the governor of Guizhou is Soertu's old subordinate, and the two have been pinching each other, if this is not done well, once he loses Mingzhu's support, he is a feudal official, but he will fall when he falls, the key is that he is not clean under his ass, In the past few years, he has fought with Wu Sangui, and he has gained a lot of benefits, but once he falls now, he will not only go down the mountain, but his net worth will not be guaranteed.
"Alas, sir, I don't say you understand me, you say, what should I do?" Mock asked his staff.
"Dare to ask your lordship, is it the emperor or the pearl."
"Are you making fun of the old man? Of course, the emperor is older. “
"Then do it from big to small, the emperor's words, you can't listen to it, don't listen, that's a protest order, it's better to do it first, Lord Mingzhu's, too, but you can do it later, this official, how can he not make mistakes."
Mo Ke thought about it, it made sense, and patted him with a smile, "It's still Mr. who sees it thoroughly, the older I get, the more confused I become, and the more greedy I am and afraid of death." ”
"It's the adults who are overly worried."
"You prepare a letter to Xiao Jin and ask him to come to you," he was interrupted by his staff before he finished speaking.
"My lord, the old man thinks that this letter doesn't need to be written, the lord only needs to forward the emperor's letter to Xiao Jin."
"Oh? What is this? I would like to ask the gentleman. ”
"Didn't your lord just wonder why the emperor sent the letter to you? This one, it is not a holy decree, and two, it is not sent to the ministry, but through the hands of you, my lord. ”
"I really don't understand what Mr. said, please explain it to me."
"Wu Sangui, King of Pingxi." The staff whispered.
