Chapter 177: Strange Question
"Xiaoya, why are you always following me today?"
In Hong Fuzhong, Hong Dingfeng looked back at his little sister and asked.
"Oops~ I was discovered by the eldest brother, in fact, Fengxiang has a new batch of silk today, which is really good-looking."
"What, Daddy won't let you buy it?" Hong Dingfeng replied with a smile after listening to it.
"Hehe, it's still big brother smart."
"You, there are so many silks in the warehouse, you have to go out to buy them, no wonder your father doesn't agree."
"It's new, I don't have it at home."
Shaking his head helplessly, Hong Dingfeng said: "I want silver to find your second brother, I am not rich." ”
"Okay~" After a long note, Hong Yaxuan turned around and left.
"This girl, it's realistic......" Looking at Hong Yaxuan's decisive departure, Hong Dingfeng couldn't help but roll his eyes.
When Hong Dingfeng walked away, Hong Yaxuan patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
'Whew...... I didn't expect to be discovered by my eldest brother so soon, but fortunately I was witty. ’
After discussing it yesterday, Jiang Beiran's only task for Hong Yaxuan was to let her go home and see what was different from before at home, and not let go of any details.
And Hong Yaxuan naturally started with the eldest brother who knew the most things in the family, but after following for a morning, she didn't see that the eldest brother was different from usual, and even the sad face that would be revealed before had disappeared.
'Could it be that the trouble caused by the Liu family has been solved? ’
Feeling that things would not be so simple, Hong Yaxuan pondered for a while and decided to observe the second brother again.
At the time, according to the agreement, Hong Yaxuan came to the pavilion.
"Did you find anything?" Jiang Beiran, who was sitting in the pavilion, looked up and asked Hong Yaxuan.
"I ...... I found out that my second brother went out to eat behind my sister-in-law's back again! ”
Jiang Beiran let out a sigh of relief after hearing this, "What else?" ”
"It's serious! My sister-in-law is so virtuous, he is still ......"
Hong Yaxuan was halfway through speaking, looking at Jiang Beiran's increasingly fierce eyes, she had to slowly close her mouth and bow her head.
"I'm not interested in your housework, get down to business."
"Oh...... I followed my two brothers for a day, but I didn't find anything, they were all the same as usual. ”
"Well, it seems that I still overestimate you." After Jiang Beiran finished speaking, he looked at Luo Wenzhou, who was standing on the side, and said, "Go and call Chengyi." ”
"Yes."
Luo Wenzhou answered, and walked out of the pavilion.
It didn't take long for Gu Qinghuan to be taken to the pavilion and shouted towards Jiang Beiran, "Big brother." ”
Hong Yaxuan has seen this Boss Song a few times at home, and knows that even when her father sees this Boss Song, he has to greet him with a smile and treat him as a distinguished guest.
And at this time, Boss Song ...... It's like the appearance of Steward Zhang when he sees his father at home.
"Who is this person...... Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but glance at Jiang Beiran again.
After telling Gu Qinghuan about the matter in detail, Jiang Beiran looked at Hong Yaxuan and said, "Tomorrow I will let Cheng Yi go to your mansion, what you have to do is to find an empty space where no one is around, understand?" ”
"Empty space with no one waiting? What do you mean? Hong Yaxuan asked strangely.
Without answering Hong Yaxuan, Jiang Beiran looked at Gu Qinghuan and said, "You understand the plan, right?" ”
"Understood." Gu Qinghuan nodded.
'Huh? Plans, what plans? ’
Hong Yaxuan looked confused, obviously she had been listening just now, but she didn't hear any plans at all.
"Well, go ahead and teach her what to do on the way."
"Yes." Arching his hand towards Jiang Beiran, Gu Qinghuan left the pavilion with Hong Yaxuan, who was still in a state of bewilderment.
Waiting for Gu Qinghuan to walk away, Jiang Beiran looked at Luo Wenzhou on the side and said, "You also go to Liu's Mansion to check and see if there is anything abnormal." ”
"Yes." Towards Jiang Beiran, Luo Wenzhou also walked out of the pavilion.
Sitting back at the stone table, Jiang Beiran picked up the teacup and took a sip.
put the two sunspots that I didn't know where to find them on the chessboard, and Jiang Beiran's eyes lit up.
"The Liu family, which is backed by the royal family, and the Hong family, which is a vassal of the Sifang Sect, what kind of energy can these two forces burst out......
Then Jiang Beiran kept dropping several sunspots on the chessboard.
"The first time I came to Lanzhou, I was involved in the center of power, and if I want to break the situation without injury, I am afraid I have to be more careful."
Saying that, Jiang Beiran picked up another white seed.
"It's good that I have enough chess pieces, and I'm ...... He is also very good at playing slow chess. ”
With a "click", Jiang Beiran landed the white son far away from the sunspot.
At noon the next day, Hong Yaxuan, who had just finished lunch, stood next to a rockery in the courtyard, where no one would come on weekdays, which was very in line with Lin Yu's eldest brother's requirements.
'Who is he, and why did he come to Jiyuan Town?' I wouldn't be in the mouth of a sheep when I came to him for help, right? ’
Just when Hong Yaxuan was thinking about something that she didn't have, she suddenly felt that she was slapped on the back.
Hong Yaxuan instinctively wanted to scream, but remembering Boss Song's explanation yesterday, she quickly covered her mouth again.
turned around and saw Boss Song, who was wearing a long robe, appear in front of her out of thin air.
"Song ...... Boss Song, where did you come from? ”
Yesterday, when Hong Yaxuan heard that Brother Lin Yu wanted Boss Song to come to their house, Hong Yaxuan thought it was a very formal visit, but later after chatting with Boss Song, he realized that he didn't plan to go to the main gate.
However, although she was already mentally prepared, Hong Yaxuan was still a little frightened when she saw Boss Song suddenly appear in front of her.
Gu Qinghuan was able to suddenly appear in front of Hong Yaxuan, naturally because he wore Lu Ran, since the last time Jiang Beiran thought that Lu Ran's style was too single and a disadvantage, he made Lu Ran into all kinds of outfits, after all, the core of Lu Ran is the formation, not the appearance.
When Hong Yaxuan's mood stabilized a little, Gu Qinghuan opened his mouth and asked, "Miss Hong, I don't know if your mansion is usually extravagant and wasteful in daily expenses?" ”
'Extravagance? ’
Although Hong Yaxuan didn't understand why Boss Song suddenly asked such a question, she still replied seriously: "No...... My father used to teach my brother and sister not to waste too much, and he was a thrifty man himself. ”
"What about weekday meals? Can there be violence? ”
"Meals?"
Hong Yaxuan frowned and thought for a moment, "I haven't paid attention to this. After speaking, she suddenly remembered something and raised her finger and said, "By the way, Cui Rong must know, I'll go and call her." ”
Soon, Hong Yaxuan dragged Qin Cuirong over.
"Hello Mr. Song." Qin Cuirong saluted politely when she saw Gu Qinghuan.
Gu Qinghuan returned the salute and said, "I'm in trouble." ”
On the way, Qin Cuirong had already heard her young lady say what she was doing with her this time, so she replied after thinking for a while.
"I sometimes ...... with Guixiang Oh, Guixiang is the maid who is responsible for buying vegetables in the house, when I went shopping with her, she told me that the rules of the house are that the vegetables must be eaten the freshest, and the lord is not allowed to waste, so generally buy as much as you eat. ”
After hearing this, Gu Qinghuan nodded his head twice and said, "Thank you." ”
Seeing that Boss Song didn't take the initiative to say why he asked about this, Hong Yaxuan, who couldn't help but be curious, said, "I don't know why Boss Song asked about this?" ”
Gu Qinghuan pursed his lips and smiled, and replied, "When you had lunch today, I went to the East Kitchen to take a look, and found that there were a lot of leftovers left in the kitchen, which was quite wasteful. ”
"Huh?" Hong Yaxuan was a little strange after hearing this.
Without waiting for Hong Yaxuan to ask again, Gu Qinghuan looked at Qin Cuirong and said, "Miss Cuirong, right?" There's one more thing I want to trouble you. ”
"Speak, please." Qin Cuirong immediately bent down and saluted.
"Do you usually go to help cook?"
"Well, once in a while." Qin Cuirong nodded.
"In that case, you just have to be natural and ask me something......
Shen Shi, Guixiang, who returned to the East Kitchen with a vegetable basket, shouted: "General Cai, there are chrysanthemums for sale at the entrance of the vegetable market today, I bought more and came back, you can look at it and give it a cold mix." ”
When Ledong, who was picking vegetables, heard this, he immediately stood up and replied: "This is a rare thing, I haven't seen you buy it for a long time, why did you suddenly have it today?" ”
Because there is no refrigerator, seasonal wild vegetables like chrysanthemum can generally be eaten in the same month, and they have to be large households.
Putting down the vegetable basket, Guixiang said as if he was invited: "Jia Bo went into the mountains to dig it, and he dug a lot." ”
"Hey, you're in the mountains? He is also bold enough, there are a lot of wild beasts in the mountains recently, and I heard that there are still strange beasts. ”
"Not really, but thanks to the courage of others, we are also blessed."
While the two were talking, Qin Cuirong ran over and immediately shouted after seeing the chrysanthemum in the vegetable basket: "Ah! I have wild vegetables to eat today. ”
Guixiang listened and smiled: "It's still your nose spirit, and you will come as soon as there is something delicious." ”
"How can there be~ Didn't I miss you?"
"Then you should have come with me to buy groceries earlier."
"Okay~ I'll definitely come early tomorrow."
After the greetings, Qin Cuirong looked at Le Dong and said, "General Cai, leave me to help cook today." ”
The Hong family is very generous to their subordinates, and they can also share a bite of the dishes eaten by the master's family, especially those who help in the east kitchen, so they can eat more.
So Ledong saw that Qin Cuirong was hungry for this chrysanthemum.
"Okay, then you have to work harder." Ledong said with a smile.
"Wrapped up in me!"
Half an hour passed, and the East Kitchen was already busy to the end, Qin Cuirong looked at the cage drawer in Le Dong's hand and asked, "General Cai, why do you make so many steamed buns today?" Much more than the last time I came, oh, I see, isn't it ......."
"Don't dare to talk nonsense!" Ledong hurriedly put on a straight face, "This is all explained by the eldest young master, let me steam more steamed buns these days." ”
"Oh~" Qin Cuirong nodded knowingly.
"You girl, what do you think of me, it's really ......"
"Hehe, I want to say if the old man likes to eat the steamed buns you make, let you make more, where do you want to go."
"Spirits, get out of the way, beware of bumping into you."
Then I continued to stay in the east kitchen to help, and I found out that I had more pickles, which were also ordered by the eldest young master.
At that time, Qin Cuirong, who had obtained this information, cautiously came to the door of the back garden and found her own young lady.
"Got all asked?" Hong Yaxuan asked.
"Hmmm! All asked. Qin Cuirong nodded vigorously.
"Okay, let's go inside."
When they came to the rockery, they didn't wait for the two of them to look around, and they saw Boss Song walking out from behind the rockery.
Arching his hand towards the two, Gu Qinghuan looked at Qin Cuirong and said, "Hard girl." ”
"It's not hard, it's not hard." Qin Cuirong waved her hand again and again, and then immediately replied: "Sir, I have inquired about everything you want me to inquire about, and the East Chef has indeed made more food in the past few days, saying that it was ordered by the eldest young master." ”
After listening to Qin Cuirong's answer, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Not to mention whether this information is useful or not, this Boss Song only came for half a day and found something abnormal, but she didn't think about it in this direction at all.
'Alas...... I'm going to be called stupid by that guy again, no, no! I'm not stupid, Miss Ben is very smart, huh! ’
Hong Yaxuan, who comforted herself in her heart, and couldn't hold back her curiosity, asked again: "I don't know how this little thing will help Mr.?" ”
"The next thing is not to bother Miss Lao Hong, when there is a result, my brother will naturally inform you tomorrow in the pavilion, take the first step and say goodbye."
After Gu Qinghuan finished speaking, he put on a scarf and walked back to the rockery, but when Hong Yaxuan and Qin Cuirong followed together, they found that there was no longer him.
In the night, Qin Cuirong, who felt a chill, grabbed the young lady's arm, and said in a trembling voice: "This Mr. Song is really a strange person. ”
"yes." Hong Yaxuan nodded.
However, Hong Yaxuan is more curious at the moment about what kind of existence is the one who can control the two strange people at the same time.
This night, Hong Yaxuan had insomnia.
She didn't figure out what Boss Song had discovered, and what this discovery would bring to their Hong family.
'I'm not going to get into trouble, am I......
Hong Yaxuan suddenly panicked, but only panicked a little, and decided not to scare herself, because her intuition told her that that person would not harm her.
'But what is it......
In this way, Hong Yaxuan tossed and turned until dawn, but after all, she was also a cultivator, and it was nothing if she didn't sleep all night, and she stayed up until the time of the unitary in one breath, and finally Hong Yaxuan, who had waited for the appointed time, couldn't wait to come outside the pavilion.
"Hoo ......"
After adjusting her breath, Hong Yaxuan slowly walked into the pavilion and found that Lin Yu and the three of them were in the pavilion.
Hong Yaxuan was just about to give up, when she saw Jiang Beiran make a gesture to her and said, "You don't have to report today, go home and wait for the news, I will tell you when I find out." ”
"Huh!?"
Hong Yaxuan was stunned, but she couldn't help asking, "I want to ask Song ...... yesterday."
"You can go back, I don't want to say it a second time."
Looking at Jiang Beiran's fierce eyes, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but shrink her neck, bowed her head and said, "Yes......"
Walking into a small forest far away from the pavilion, Hong Yaxuan couldn't help but stomp her feet twice.
"Bad guys! Another murderer! Another murderer! ”
Hong Yaxuan, who couldn't help but "hum" for a while, felt a little aggrieved in her heart, but she felt that the person seemed to have really figured out the matter, otherwise how could she not need the help of her family insiders.
Forget it, forgive him again for his sake. ’
