9. Carry it out

"No, take care of yourself! This matter will be handed over to Aunt Li to deal with! Qiao Li's annoyance reached the peak, he threw off his sleeves and turned to leave.

Aunt Li was overjoyed, and she had some sincere admiration for Qiao Siwan, she cried for a long time and Qiao Li was still unmoved, but her three or two sentences made the master immediately change his opinion, seriousness is amazing!

Yu Meiniang looked at the back of Qiao Li leaving without endeavour, only to feel that this time everything was in vain, in fact, she was very angry, and suddenly her blood surged, and she was about to faint as soon as it was dark in front of her, and a pair of soft hands nearby gently and skillfully held her up, and the man said softly: "Mother, it's windy inside, you better come back and rest first, there are all Aunt Li here, rest assured, it's not messy." ”

Mother Wang hurriedly helped Yu Meiniang over, and said to Qiao Siwan with a smile: "Miss, I don't bother you, I'll come." ”

Qiao Siwan smiled slightly, like the east wind blowing on the ground in March, indescribably gentle and lovely: "Then it will bother my mother." ”

Rao is an old treacherous and cunning like Wang's mother, and her heart trembled three times when she was blown by this smile, and she and the maidservant girl beside her helped Yu Meiniang to say goodbye quickly as if she had seen a ghost.

Aunt Li wiped away her tears, walked back to Qiao Siwan's side, and said, "Miss, I'll go and entrust my subordinates to stop the murder, and I'll be out of company first." ”

Qiao Siwan nodded, saw her bewitching goodbye, and entered the house by herself, Mama Fang hurriedly spoke to stop her: "Miss, this house is unlucky, let's come back!" Qiao Siwan didn't stop, and walked to Aunt Zhou, who was still staring at her with a pair of eyes wide open, and looked at it for a long time before gently reaching out and closing her eyes for her......

Early the next morning, Qiao Simei went to greet the old lady as usual. Aunt Li came surprisingly early, as soon as she saw Qiao Siwan arrive, she immediately gave up her position next to the old lady, Qiao Siwan smiled slightly, as if she didn't catch a glimpse of her one aunt sitting next to the old lady beyond the point, naturally sat in this open space, while pinching Li's shoulder, and said softly: "Grandmother, yesterday's incident ......"

Li sighed and said, "I know, alas, a good grandson, thinking that after being born, the Qiao family can have more teeth, and Siyuan can still have a brother, who ......knows."

Qiao Siwan said softly: "What grandmother said is that Aunt Zhou is also blessed and can't stand grandmother's kindness." Don't be too sad, Daddy is in his prime, and Aunt Li will be able to spread the branches for the Qiao family in the future, when the time comes, a bunch of children will revolve around Grandmother, I'm afraid you will still be noisy! ”

Li Shi was really very helpful when he heard this, and said with a smile on his face: "Yue'e, did you hear it, Wan'er is urging you to give her a little brother quickly!" ”

Li Yue's face suddenly turned red, and she said with a smile: "Old lady, don't make fun of me......"

Li laughed, then frowned again, "As for Yu Meiniang......"

Qiao Siwan said slowly: "I was about to ask my grandmother, Aunt Zhou was pregnant first, and my mother was a little aggrieved, and Aunt Zhou is now gone, so forget about it this time, continue to investigate it exhaustively, I am afraid that the house will be unsafe and hurt my father's official reputation." ”

Li looked at her with some surprise, their sister and brother were continuously oppressed by Yu Meiniang, she thought that Qiao Siwan would take the opportunity to ask her to punish Yu Meiniang, but she didn't expect her to be so sensible! Li couldn't help but feel a sense of pity in her heart, in fact, she didn't want to reopen Yu Meiniang, although Yu Meiniang was the concubine of the Hou Mansion, but she had a brother who was the secretary of the military department in the wild, in case she really used the family law, it would not be good to tell the Hou Mansion.

"There is no more sensible child in this house than you." The old lady smiled and patted her hands, and asked her to join her for breakfast. Aunt Li stood aside, always cooking for Li and Qiao Siwan, and the air was very harmonious.

While eating, Yahuan Yumei entered the report: "Old lady, someone from the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion has come." ”

Li Shi raised and began, "Who is it?" After thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate, and immediately said, "Please come in." ”

At this time, a middle-aged woman with a slender body, a long face, and a silver mouse jacket with a turquoise orchid carved silk and a green doro tweed skirt walked in to greet her.

Qiao Siwan looked at her, slowly stood up, and at this moment, her smile bloomed from the bottom of her heart: "Mother Du! But soon, her smile faded, Mother Du is the closest mother by her grandmother's side, naturally she won't get here for a reason, there must be something going on in the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion......

Qiao Siwan blessed the Li family, first turned the dinner table, walked to Du's mother's side, and said slowly: "Du's mother, why are you here!" ”

Mother Du glanced at Qiao Siwan, but did not speak, and saluted the Li family before saying respectfully, "Say hello to the old lady." ”

Li smiled with a smile on his face, said a few polite words, and then entrusted Zhang's mother to watch the seat and pour tea.

Mother Du pushed and didn't dare to sit down, and then said to the Li family: "Old lady, the slave and maid came today, first, the old lady sent the slave and maid to visit the old lady, and second, she came to ......" She turned around, looked at Qiao Siwan and said, "Second, the fifth young master of the Hou Mansion has just disappeared, and I want to invite Miss Biao to go to the Hou Mansion!" ”

Fifth Young Master? That is the youngest son of his maternal uncle, Marquis Lin Wenlong! Qiao Siwan's heart tightened, and when she turned around to look at Li's demeanor, she begged a little bitterly: "Grandmother ......"

Li Shiming was also surprised, and muttered: "In this case, you should go with Mother Du to see the old lady and the doctor first, presumably they are the saddest now, you persuade more, as for your father's side, I will tell you." ”

"Thank you grandmother for your kindness." Qiao Siwan bowed her head.

Walking out all the way, Qiao Siwan's footsteps were steady, but her smile gradually disappeared, until she left Shou'an Hall, and then asked Du's mother in a low voice: "Are grandmother and aunt okay?" ”

Although Mother Du's smile was still as usual, Qiao Siwan saw a hint of far-fetchedness, she leaned closer and gently wrapped Mother Du's hand in the palm of her hand: "Mother Du, there is no urgency when you have a body, speak slowly." ”

Mother Du felt the warmth of her palm slowly passing over, and her energy was invisibly inspired, and she replied: "Miss Cousin knows, the old lady is old, her body is weak, and she is constantly taking care of it. Last night, the fifth young master suddenly disappeared, and the doctor cried all night and fell ill, and no one dared to report to the old lady until now. Miss Cousin, you are the most important person in the heart of the old lady, she has always loved you, and when you go, she will be happy to catch a glimpse of you, and her body will be better, and then the slave will find an opportunity to report her about it. ”

Qiao Siwan nodded: "Mother Du, you can rest assured, I will definitely coax my grandmother to relax and recuperate." ”

Mother Du looked at Qiao Siwan and smiled happily: "Miss Biao has grown up and is sensible, you didn't go to the Hou Mansion with porridge before, and you always said that the Hou Mansion has many rules and is not fun." ”

Qiao Siwan smiled faintly: "Mother Du, Wan'er was ignorant before, she must have made her grandmother sad!" ”

Mother Du patted her hand and whispered, "The old lady will never blame your ......"

The overall building of the Zhenguo Hou Mansion is the largest, almost occupying half of the street, and there are many official mansions nearby, but the range of the Hou Mansion is far away. When the carriage arrived at the Zhenguo Mansion, it did not enter the main gate, but stopped in front of the west corner gate. The coachmen supported the wheels, casually unloaded the mules that pulled the cart, and immediately changed into the six well-dressed servants of the Zhenguo Marquis's Mansion and came up to lift the sedan chair. After walking along the road for a while, I stopped at a hanging flower gate. After the little servants withdrew, the mother-in-law who followed the car said softly through the curtain of the car window: "Miss Cousin, it's here!" ”

Hongyu replied, "I know", the cat's body opened the curtain, and she caught a glimpse of the mother-in-law who followed the car had put the footstool away, she stepped on the footstool and got out of the car, and then turned around to serve Qiao Siwan and got out of the car, at this time Du's mother had come from the back of the car. He led them up the stairs, all the way through the verandah, and at all four corners there were handmaidens in green satin vests standing with their hands hanging down in a voice. Catching a glimpse of Qiao Siwan and Du's mother, the maidservants and maids prostrated in unison.

There are five upper rooms in the front, all of which are carved beams and painted buildings, Qiao Siwan and they walked to the door of the main room continuously, and the little maid standing on the side saw them approaching, quickly opened the curtain, and shouted respectfully: "Miss Table."

As soon as I walked into the dormitory, I saw a maid hurriedly walking out.

Mother Du grabbed her and asked with some kindness: "Furong, what's the matter?" ”

Fleur replied with a pale face: "Old lady...... The old lady fainted, and the slave maid was going to ask the doctor to come over! ”

Mother Du's expression became bloodless in an instant, and she walked inside quickly, Qiao Siwan frowned, and followed firmly.

The black lacquered bedside, the basins, the water, the handkerchiefs, although the maids are still doing things in a clear order, their faces all show a solemn look.

When one of the maidservants turned around and saw Mother Du, she greeted her like a life-saving grass, and said anxiously, "Mother Du, you are back!" As he spoke, tears jumped out, "The old lady Jun Shi heard the information that the fifth young master was gone, and suddenly fainted, no matter how you call it, I have already sent someone to ask for Dr. Liu." Then he saw Qiao Siwan who was following up, and hurriedly saluted her.

Qiao Siwan had already walked quickly to the bed, only to see that Mrs. Ning had her hair in a mess, her eyes were closed, her face was colorless, and her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and she was already unconscious.

"Grandmother," Qiao Siwan called softly nearby, but the old lady didn't react at all, and Mother Du turned around, tears streaming down her face.

Qiao Siwan turned her head suddenly, with a hint of tyranny in her eyes: "Who reported the information to the old lady!" ”

Everyone couldn't help but look at a servant girl standing not far away, and the servant girl fell to her knees with a thud, and said with a frightened face: "Miss Cousin, slaves and maids are occasional ......"

Mother Du stared at her angrily: "Osmanthus, you are so bold!" ”

Qiao Siwan stared at her, staring at Osmanthus so much that she couldn't help lowering her head, she laughed and said, "Mother Du, I remember that the maid of Rongxi Hall has always been very polite, when did her body become so unruly!" ”

Du's mother said: "What Miss Table said is true! She waved her hand, and immediately a few mothers-in-law came forward to lift the osmanthus up, and the osmanthus was still struggling, but when she raised her eyes, she saw Qiao Siwan's extremely cold eyes, and she couldn't help herself shudder, and she didn't dare to say anything more, and she was honestly pressed out.
