Chapter 216, the guqin whose name was crossed out
This piano looks very ordinary, not even as good as the guqins that Qu Moying has seen in those instrumental music stores in the past, even if it is dusty, this piano looks dusty, revealing a little bleak and inconspicuous.
Qu Moying sat in front of the piano, stretched out her hand and pulled a few times, her eyes lit up, looking at the appearance of this piano, she originally had no idea, but now she immediately judged that this piano is a good piano, and it is also a rare good piano, such a piano is a little better than the one she used to use together.
How could such a piano be nameless?
Qu Moying looked at it carefully, but no matter how she looked at it, this piano just didn't have a name, only in a place at the bottom, and saw a scratched place, a small place, it should have been written in the original, and it looked like it should have been named The piano was deliberately crossed out.
"It wasn't Madame's mark." Mama Zhou also saw Qu Moying's movements and hurriedly said.
That's even more strange, who would give a guqin with a deliberately crossed out name to a mother? Why not send one that is more ordinary, but looks gorgeous?
"Before my mother got married, did you see anyone? The kind of solitary? Qu Moying put down the doubts in her heart, put the piano back down, and asked slowly.
The instrument was so weird that she couldn't think much of it.
"No, Madame has never seen outsiders before she got married." Mama Zhou shook her head affirmatively.
"How is that possible? Didn't my mother ever go to the streets? Qu Moying was surprised, although the average young lady of the family will also let the young lady not go out of the door and the second door, but the rules are the rules, when you are accompanied by the elders, or when it is necessary to travel, you can also go out.
It's like I'm out of the house once today.
As long as you are careful with your words and actions, you can be careful once in a while.
"Yes, Madame never goes out on the street, even Madame Ling Anbo has been out of the house, but Madame has not." Mama Zhou shook her head, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, "Madame has been quiet since she was a child, she doesn't like to go out, and the old lady and the old lady are also strict with Madame, so they have never gone out, and there are invitations from other mansions, and Madame doesn't go." ”
"Everyone else is going?" Qu Moying became more and more surprised, this thing was unreasonable.
No matter how quiet you are, it's impossible not to even go to banquets in other mansions, so you're not afraid of making people feel like you don't give face to others?
"Yes, every time there is an invitation, it is only said that the lady is unwell, so she will not go out, and later it was even rumored that there was no second miss in Liufu at all, but it was the old lady who did not leave the second miss when she was born, so she deliberately said this to appease the old lady who missed her daughter."
Mama Zhou said.
Qu Moying's long eyelashes flickered, this time he was really shocked, there were even such rumors outside, which showed how weird it was that his mother never went out at that time.
That's even more strange, who would name her to give her a guqin?
The hand plucked the strings twice, and the sound quality was beautiful, and it was definitely not an ordinary piano.
"My mother never left the house until she married her father?" Qu Moying asked.
"Yes, I haven't been out, when I got married, it was the first time my wife went out, and that time my wife was very happy and full of imagination about ......the future," Mama Zhou said this, with tears in her eyes and choked up.
The lady who wore the red dowry that day was as happy as a child, and she looked joyless and carefree in the past, and she was docile to the old lady and the old lady in everything, but in fact, who could really be at ease and have been locked up in the house, although the lady kept telling the old lady and the old lady that she was unwilling to go out.
But in fact, every time Yahuan talks about the new things she sees outside, Mrs. will still stop and listen, Mama Zhou thinks that Mrs. is willing to go out, but the old lady and the old lady have not let her go out, and then it has become natural.
also because of the few people I saw, when I occasionally saw this extraordinary-looking Liu Gongzi in the house, I fell in love at first sight, but I didn't expect that in the end, it was a mistake, and then I married hastily, and I didn't even save my life.
"After my mother married into Qufu, didn't she like to go out?" Qu Moying pondered for a moment and asked again.
"After marrying in, my wife rarely goes out, but occasionally she still goes out to socialize, and it is difficult to change the habit for so many years." Mama Zhou wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, nodded and said.
Qu Mo Ying Shen groaned, this thing sounded strange, and it was very strange.
No wonder she thought about it a lot, Ji Hanyue was called a noble girl in the capital at that time, and all the teachings she received were in accordance with the rules, and everything she said and did was according to the rules, she had never heard of it, she had to stay in the house all the time, and she was not allowed to go out, she was the future princess, and she was cautious when she traveled, and she didn't need to be locked up in the backyard all the time.
Then why did my grandfather and grandmother keep my mother locked up?
But he doesn't care about his mother, is it because his mother is strong by nature, or is it something else?
Qu Moying couldn't think about it for a while, so she had to let it go, and let Mama Zhou go down first, find the mother-in-law who contacted Yu Qian before, and let her pass the word.
Mama Zhou said she understood, and then wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and left......
Yu Qian came over in the evening, he drank a lot of wine, and then he got drunk in the private room of the teahouse, and then the guy in the teahouse woke him up, and after sitting down, he called a pot of herbal tea, Yu Qian drank a few cups, only to feel a little slow, the previous scene was half-asleep and half-awake, so that he didn't know whether it was true or false for a while.
Fortunately, he saw a purse placed on the corner of the table and thought it was real.
The material of this purse is still the batch he sent to Qufu before, this batch of cloth was also brought from Jiangnan, the dyeing is not bad, but the amount is not large, and they are all small cloth heads, can only make some small things, Yu Shi saw that these can not be ready-to-wear, so he asked him to send them to the maid ring and mother-in-law in the house to make some handkerchief purses and the like, and those clothes to match.
There were a few silver bills in his purse, but not enough to pay his debts.
Yu Qian sat in the private room, thought about it for a long time, and finally figured it out.
It turned out that the shop that he had been holding in his hands belonged to Mrs. Qu in front, and then after the family sister married into the Qu Mansion, she became the wife of this family, and the shop fell into the hands of the clan sister.
Originally, after so many years, no one would think about this matter again, but now that the fourth lady of Qufu has returned home, and it seems that this fourth lady is not as useless as it is rumored outside, it seems that she is fighting with her wife, and in this current situation, the situation of the lady does not look very good.
It was rumored outside that Mrs. Qu Si had harmed Miss Qu Si before, and she had also harmed the spirit of the crown princess, these were all major events, and then Mrs. became ill, and no outsiders saw her, so it seemed that there was another reason.
At this time, taking this shop out can solve her predicament on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can also make Miss Qu Si uncheckable, which is also a favor for Mrs. Qu.
Did you really help Madame? Yu Qian still has some doubts, after all, this matter is a big deal, a shop, and it is still a company that has been in business for so long.
After thinking about it, Yu Qian had no choice but to tidy up his clothes, came out of the teahouse, and called a carriage to Qufu.
Although he felt that this should have been ordered by his wife, he must have been dizzy at that time, and he was not sure.
For his wife, Yu Qian has always been loyal.
The carriage stopped in the backyard of Qufu, Yu Qian got out of the carriage, went up and knocked on the door, the mother-in-law guarding the back door opened the door to see that it was Yu Qian, but there was not much surprise, in the past, Yu Qian would come from time to time, sometimes it was the back door, and the mother-in-law in the backyard also got a lot of benefits, so naturally he would not stop him.
It's just that now it's not what it used to be, and Madame doesn't see guests now.
Yu Qian pushed to find the third lady, the mother-in-law generously let go, as long as you don't go to find Mrs., everything is easy to discuss, of course, even if you want to see Mrs., then you can't see it, I heard that Mrs. There are people guarding outside the courtyard gate, and the second master forbids others to go to Mrs.
It's just these words, and the mother-in-law doesn't want to be too clear about the money.
Yu Qian skillfully walked to a small road, walked for a while, and saw a sweeping mother-in-law bending over to sweep the floor, and at first glance it was the one he was looking for, and he was overjoyed.
"Let's go and ask, is there anyone going out with Madame today?" Yu Qian took out a piece of broken silver from his bosom and handed it to the mother-in-law who raised her head.
This mother-in-law is the one he asked to inquire about the news before.
The mother-in-law laughed and piled up flowers, nodded again and again, threw the broom in her hand, and ran out of breath after a while.
"The shopkeeper, I saw Aunt Hailan next to Madame."
"What did she say?" Yu Qian said excitedly, Hailan is the personal person next to Mrs., as long as she says something accurately, it must be accurate.
"She just told you to do what Madame wants." The mother-in-law said vaguely, and then asked curiously, "What does Madame mean?" Shopkeeper Yu, did Mrs. tell you what to do? If it weren't for the fact that you almost bumped into Aunt Hailan, I wouldn't have said that you wanted to see Madame outside the mansion. ”
The mother-in-law said a little proudly.
"It's nothing, I'm leaving!" Yu Qian was originally a little suspicious, but when he heard his mother-in-law say this, his doubts were immediately gone, and he didn't have the heart to say anything at this time, so he arched his hand, turned around and left.
Madame should still be inconvenient to see him, but Aunt Hailan's meaning is obvious, since Aunt Hailan's meaning is like this, then he will hurry up to deal with the matter of selling out of the shop, this kind of thing, it is not good to buy it for a while, but he can't wait too many things, he has to take care of it.
Yu Qian left in a hurry, his doubts were gone, he turned around and hurried to the back door, and when he walked away, Yudong turned out behind a big tree, looked at Yu Qian's back, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and sneered at his mother-in-law: "You did a good job, I will tell Miss Fourth when I go back, I will let you go this time." ”
"Thank you, Miss Four, thank you Aunt Yudong." The mother-in-law nodded again and again, and a big stone fell to the ground in her heart, if she let the adults know that she was sending news to her wife, she must not kill herself......
