Chapter 363, Mama Zhou said the past
Tell me, what the hell is going on? Qu Moying asked calmly.
"Miss, the old slave didn't want to say anything about this, after all, it must be related to Mrs. Lady's reputation, but now I have to say that it was Mrs. who was originally engaged to Liu Shangshu at that time, and the two families had already said it, and even this Lord Liu had seen Mrs. and expressed satisfaction, and when he was about to get engaged, the Duke of Qi suddenly took a fancy to Lord Liu."
Mama Zhou's face was flushed with anger, she still put this matter on hold, and she was resentful for her master.
"Seen?" Qu Moying was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you say that my mother almost didn't see other outsiders before she got married?" ”
"It was a chance that at that time, Lord Liu had just been going to Beijing to catch the exam, and he borrowed it for a few nights in Qufu, and that night, I occasionally saw Mrs., and I was shocked for a while, and I was stupid to stand under the wall for half a night, and then proposed to Qufu, saying that after he was in high school, he would come to marry Mrs., and Master Qu did not agree for the time being, only said that he passed the exam."
"Then he passed the exam, and he also sent someone over to say that he wanted to continue this family business, Master Qu was very satisfied, and Mrs. agreed, and even accepted the dowry of Liufu, but at this time, the Duke of Qi asked for a will to marry Lord Liu, and Mrs. could only choose another son-in-law at that time, so she chose the master who was on the list at that time."
Mama Zhou told the cause and effect of the matter, and after finishing speaking, she sneered: "I don't know where they got such a big face, not to mention robbing Mrs. of her relatives, and now you still want to deal with Miss, do they still have the face to do such a thing?" Madame's affairs are all caused by them. ”
"They, who else?" Qu Moying bit her lip lightly.
"Who else is there besides the Duchess of Qi Guo, it must be the Duchess of Qi and Mrs. Liu who came to the Duke of Qi together to ask for a family matter, otherwise how could a man like the Duke of Qi pay attention to such a trivial matter." Mama Zhou said disapprerovingly.
Qu Moying was silent, his fingers gently plucked on the strings, and the elegant music slowly slid past his ears, a very familiar melody, and it was also very calming and calming.
But right now, she can't calm down.
When Mama Zhou talked about these past events, she explained some things that couldn't be explained in the past, but it also made her fall into some new doubts.
Defu's father-in-law's matter really has nothing to do with his mother's parents, is it really just an accident?
It happened so many years ago, it was just a very accidental thing, and now it is used by the graft on his own body, trying to harm himself.
Is there a handiwork of Jingyu County Jun in this? Or is there someone else's?
Is there still some help around Qu Mingcheng that he doesn't know, otherwise it would be impossible for a person like Qu Mingcheng to come into contact with the level of Defu's father-in-law, even if he inquired about the news, he couldn't find out.
As long as this matter has a little connection with Qu Mingcheng, Qu Moying can't treat Qu Mingcheng as an ordinary scholar who only knows how to read, and he is not an ordinary son of a family.
Qu Moying is very clear about this.
At the beginning, it was still married, but after so many years, I heard that Liu Shangshu and this Mrs. Liu were very affectionate, and there were only two concubines in Liu Shangshu's backyard, it is said that it was many years ago, this Liu Shangshu was a very self-disciplined person, and he also loved his wife very much, and he and Mrs. Liu were a loving couple.
This Liu Shangshu has no concubines, only one concubine, I heard that he is also a concubine, but I don't know that it is a concubine who is by his side now.
It's still a concubine who is gone.
This concubine is very low-key, but I heard that reading is also good, and he may be older than Qu Mingcheng.
The only concubine is this Jingyu County Jun.
"Duke Qi loves Mrs. Liu very much?" In the sound of Youyang's piano, Qu Moying suddenly asked, but his fingers did not stop.
"Yes, I heard that the most beloved of Duke Qi is Mrs. Liu, who loves him more than his two sons." Mama Zhou nodded, and she was also quite resentful of this Duke of Qi, "If it weren't for this Duke of Qi who went to ask for marriage, Mrs. would not have married into Qufu at that time, let alone ...... at a young age."
Speaking of this, Mama Zhou couldn't go on, her voice choked, all the tragedies of Madame, in Mama Zhou's opinion, were caused by the Duke of Qi.
"If it weren't for the marriage given by the Duke of Qi, after the lord was furious, he was anxious to fall in love with the second lord for the young lady, and the lady might be fine now."
"In a hurry?" Qu Moying's hand pressed the strings, sensing the vibration of the strings at the bottom of his hand, he suddenly raised his head, and his eyes turned into motionless darkness, "Why is it in a hurry?" Even if it's not Liu Shangshu, there's no other choice? ”
"The old slave didn't know about this, but he only knew that at that time, Master Yue was really anxious, and he sent someone to send him the move in the examination at that time, and after reading it, he chose Qufu, and then sent someone to ask Qufu about the message, even if it was booked in a few days, even if it was ordered, and then the marriage was also in a hurry, and the embroidered clothes of the young lady didn't even have time to embroider, or went outside to buy them."
Mama Zhou said.
"In such a hurry? Is Qufu in such a hurry? Qu Moying's eyebrows frowned slightly, this thing is too unreasonable.
"Yes, the old slave also asked Mrs. at that time, but Mrs. didn't know why, she only said that Master Yue ordered it, and Mrs. Yue repeatedly told her to get married immediately." Mama Zhou shook her head.
She was still Xiao Yue's personal maid at the time, and it was naturally Xiao Yue's who could ask, but Xiao Yue's didn't know, of course she had no way of knowing, but she just felt that this family affair was in a hurry, and it must be related to the previous family affairs in Liufu.
"Miss, the slave maid thinks it will be the meaning of the Duke of Qi, not to mention the family affairs of the lady, and I am afraid that the lady will not be good to keep it, so I use power to pressure the lady to marry quickly."
Mama Zhou said indignantly.
For so many years, every time she thought of this kind of thing, she felt aggrieved for her wife, what the Duke of Qi did was really not authentic, and this kind of thing was done.
"Didn't you say that Qi Guogong was good with his grandfather's father?" Qu Moying looked at the strings in front of him, his fingers pressed hard, and his fingertips turned pale.
"The old slave also heard about it when he was in Yuefu, but that's just it, I haven't seen how close Yuefu and Qi Guogong are going, if there is anything on weekdays, Qi Guogong Mansion will not send people over to congratulate him, of course, we Yuefu will not go over, the so-called relationship is good, it's just a rumor, I don't know if it's true."
Mama Zhou said disapprerovingly.
Therefore, this so-called good relationship may just be an excuse to cover up.
But why?
The image of an old man appeared in Qu Moying's mind, that was Qi Guogong, what kind of mood did Qi Guogong have when he saw him that day, and did he need to see himself in his identity? It's just that I happened to think of my old friend's granddaughter, so when I was still Ji Hanyue, why didn't I find out that this Duke of Qi was different from him?
One is the daughter of the Da Yue clan and the other is the daughter of the Xiao Yue clan, the only difference is that the daughter of the Duke of Qi robbed the Xiao Yue clan of the family affairs, and the Xiao Yue clan had to marry hastily, so is it guilty?
Originally, Qu Moying thought that if she called Mama Zhou over, she would figure out many chaotic knots, but now she found that more knots appeared.
Those things seem to be unsolvable, but they seem to have overlooked an important point, so that they can't be untied one by one.
It is related to the Liu Mansion, the Qi State Mansion, and the Jiangnan Yue Clan, and it may even be closely related to the current affairs.
But the clues she got were too small to connect the causes and consequences of these things.
"You go down first!" Qu Moying's slender fingers were raised, and then he slowly plucked the strings under his hands, and his eyes slowly condensed in the sound of the piano.
She wondered where was the point that connected everything?
Is it that I have overlooked something, or has this point not yet surfaced, and the things I have discovered are too superficial and do not really string things together......
Mama Zhou calmed down, saluted Qu Moying, looked at Qu Moying's silhouette with her head half-bowed, sighed softly, and withdrew.
When he walked to the bottom of the porch, he stood still, stretched out his sleeve and wiped his tears, these things were unfair to his wife.
What a tragedy in Mrs.'s life, in the end, she also went alone, if there is no young lady in this world, who will remember Mrs.
Some things in the past clearly appeared in front of Mama Zhou's eyes, making her nose sour and painful, she shook the fist in her hand vigorously, gritted her teeth, she will not live up to Madame's trust, for Madame, it doesn't matter if she is broken, she will guard Miss.
Just like the vow she made at her wife's bedside that day.
But if Miss really knows, she won't hide it, but Madame is really pitiful, and if she has the ability, she even wants Madam to know those things and avenge Madame.
Madame's death was never an accident, but only she suspected it now, because it involved so much that she hadn't even told Madam Ling Anbo.
Mrs. said, check it when you have the ability, and find out when you don't have the ability is a dead end, and there are reasons for the young lady here.
Madame has the kindest heart and does not want Miss to be hurt.
If you don't have the ability, let everything rot in your stomach......
"Mama Zhou, what did Miss Fang Cai ask to make you so sad?" There was Mama Yan's voice in her ears, Mama Zhou and Mama Yan have also been very familiar with each other in the past few days, and she knows that Mama Yan is also her own young lady's confidant now.
With her head to the side and wiping her tears with her sleeve, Mama Zhou turned her head and shook her head: "It's nothing, it's just that Miss asked about some of Madame's past and remembered Madame...... I feel uncomfortable. ”
Having said this, Mama Zhou burst into tears again.
"Did the young lady return a post?" Mama Yan listened to it closely, the sound of the piano in it was excellent, without a trace of annoyance, and she couldn't help but secretly admire in her heart, although this master is small, but her bearing is extraordinary, even Mama Zhou's mood fluctuates to this extent, and the sound of the piano inside is not chaotic.
is not only the bearing, but also the skills of playing the piano, which are amazing.
