Chapter 102: Clever tricks to drive away Diao Nu
"But the pen and ink brought from the house?"
"That's nature."
Kim interrogated again and again, but he always felt that he was still frightened. If Leng Qinghe was really terminally ill as he said, and Leng Qinghuan had a deep relationship with his brother and sister, how could he be so calm?
She thought about it for a while, but she was really restless, and ordered someone to hold the lantern and go to the Xue family's courtyard. Because, today, the right minister is resting here.
Seeing that she came over so late, there must be something important, so he put on his clothes and came out.
Jin went straight to the point: "Qinghe, this kid has been away from the Prime Minister's Mansion for some time, although he carefully told Mingyue and Qingfeng to take care of them, but the concubine is still not at ease in her body and mind, thinking about going out of the city tomorrow to visit him." If the condition still does not improve, it is better to take it back to the house. After all, the conditions there are too harsh. ”
Leng Xiang listened to Leng Qinghuan's words today, and he was also entangled for a long time, and when he heard Jin say this, he nodded: "Don't be in a hurry tomorrow too early, wait for me to go down the court and go with you." ”
Kim was a little surprised, nodded in response, and turned back.
The curtain behind the door shook, and Aunt Xue looked thoughtful, beckoning to the maid in front of her.
On the morning of the second day, Leng Xiang went down to the court, took a carriage with the Jin family, and went straight out of the city to Sanlipo, the cemetery of the Leng family.
Every Qingming New Year's Day, Leng Xiang often comes here to incense and sweep the tomb, and he doesn't feel how shabby the hut here is. Approaching today, looking at the dark and cramped grass house, I couldn't help but feel sour.
No wonder Qinghuan condemned himself so violently, Qinghe is also the son of his own prime minister's house, and he has fallen into such a field, if his colleagues know, where will his old face go?
Before he entered the grass house, the sound of Leng Qinghe's rapid cough came out, and he was weak, like the sound of an almost dying old man breathing.
The corners of Jin's lips hooked up a sneer, it seems that what Mingyue said is true, even if it is cold and happy? As the saying goes, God doesn't know it, Leng Qinghe is now terminally ill, Leng Xiang has searched for several doctors but has not diagnosed what the problem is, she is a yellow-haired girl who has not dried up, what can she know.
Leng Xiang paused at his feet, hesitated, and was a little timid for a while, not knowing how to face this son who had placed high hopes on him.
Someone behind the hut lowered their voices and argued.
"These supplements are all used by the eldest lady to replenish the young master's body, you actually secretly took them to the market to exchange money, Mingyue, can you bear it?"
"Keep your voice quiet, don't let the eldest young master hear it. Isn't it just a little tonic, and you can't taste it when you stew it in chicken soup, you don't say it, I don't say it, how can the eldest young master know, and how can it reach the ears of the eldest lady? ”
Jin was taken aback, and was about to step forward to stop drinking, but was stopped by Leng Xiangyi raising his hand.
"The eldest young master is not thin on us, his body and bones are already like this now, seeing that the day is not safe, are you embarrassed?"
"So you are dead brains, you are all people who are about to die, what is the use of eating more ginseng and reishi. It's better to change the money and make it convenient for us in the future. So I will not do you any wrong, but I will divide you two taels of silver. ”
"Who wants you this stinky money! I really misread your Mingyue, for the sake of money, you can steal supplements to sell today, are you going to sell your master tomorrow? ”
"Toast and don't eat and drink, since you have torn your face today, then I will warn you, if you dare to speak out, I will tell Madame that I want you to look good in the future!"
"Who do you want to look good?"
He said coldly: "Bold minion, I think you are tired and crooked." ”
Mingyue and Qingfeng were taken aback, and hurriedly turned their faces, seeing Leng Xiang and Jin standing behind them, they hurriedly turned over and bowed down.
"The lord spares his life, spares his life, the villain is just joking with Qingfeng."
"Who's kidding you?" Qingfeng tugged at his sleeve and shook it, and a few silver ingots rolled out of it: "The eldest lady came to see the young master a few days ago, and all the supplements he sent were secretly sold by him, and they were exchanged for a few fake grass roots to fill the number." ”
Jin reprimanded angrily: "The daring slave asked you to follow the eldest young master to serve, but you deceived your superiors and subordinates like this and treated your master harshly." I really don't want to live anymore! ”
"Father, forget it." Leng Qinghe heard the sound of the dispute, and leaned against the wall and moved over step by step: "It's still a child, make a mistake once in a while, give him a chance to mend his ways." ”
Mingyue kowtowed to him like pounding garlic: "Thank you, young master, the slave is wrong, the slave will never dare anymore." ”
Leng Xiang squinted his eyes and looked at him, seeing that he was panting step by step, he was weak, and his heart was not comfortable: "You don't enjoy the glory and wealth in the house, you have to come here to suffer, let a slave bully the master, why are you suffering?" Pack up your things today and follow your father back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Jin's face was also full of earnestness: "That's right, you ran to this wilderness alone, and your father and I are also worried, and we are very relieved." ”
Leng Qinghe shook his head: "Even if it is brocade clothes and jade food, my son is just lingering on the three-foot sickbed and can't enjoy it." On the contrary, here, the cool breeze blows every night, which is many times more comfortable than in the house, and you can cultivate your body with peace of mind.
Although his body is not angry, his son feels that it is not as difficult as in the house. After surviving this hot summer, it will be cool in autumn, and my son's health will improve, and it will not be too late to return home. ”
looked at him coldly, although he was still as thin as a skeleton, but it seemed that he was indeed more energetic than in the prime minister's mansion, and his complexion was also better, and he was no longer reluctant to persuade him after a few words.
"Then this dog slave can't stay with you. When my father returns home, I will choose a loyal and reliable servant for you, and find a better mother-in-law to serve you. This grass house was too difficult, and it was ordered to be rebuilt. ”
Leng Qinghe's heart was sour, except for the beginning of his illness, his father had asked a few words, and he hadn't heard him ask for warmth for a long time. Those who soak in bitter water can chew a sweet taste with a little grass root. In the same way, a child who has been lacking love for a long time, a word of care can also move him.
"Don't bother. It's just that I've lived in this Futian and I'm back. It's not easy to build a lot of construction here. As for the people who serve, a person with a breeze is very thoughtful, and there is no place to live if there is more, and it is very noisy. ”
Leng Xiang glanced around, in case the rebuilding of the house destroyed the feng shui of this cemetery, it would indeed have an impact on his official fortune. Originally, it was just a temporary stay, and the food was more careful, but it was better than anything else. So he didn't insist anymore, and told Leng Qinghe a few more words, and took Mingyue back to the Prime Minister's Mansion together.
As soon as Leng Xiang and the Jin family left, Leng Qinghe dusted off the clothes on his body, and commanded Qingfeng proudly: "Send away Mingyue, you and I don't have to be thieves anymore." ”
Qingfeng spat hatefully: "The guy who betrayed the lord for glory, I originally wanted to take the opportunity to fight with him happily today, who knew that the master would arrive so quickly." ”
"What do you have to worry about him, the day you and I return to the Prime Minister's Mansion will be when he pays the price."
Qingfeng's eyes lit up, and he was a little impatient: "With your talent, Childe, you will definitely be able to go to high school in a few days." When the time comes, the clothes will return to their hometown, and they will also give the master a big surprise. ”
Leng Qinghe was silent, thinking that he was still lingering on the sickbed some time ago, and now he is in good health and has been able to realize his long-cherished wish. There is a feeling of being a human being in two lives.
