Chapter 121
Xue Mingrui, who was holding the pillow, suddenly became sleepy, leaned back, and muttered, "Recently, my uncle came back, and my father's face is getting more and more smelly, if it weren't for my grandmother's birthday, I would really stay with you and not leave, to avoid the limelight, it is rare to be sandwiched between the two, and I really have the heart to die." ”
"Uncle, isn't the Gu family the only one day Gu Da Shao?" Li Chengxun kicked Xue Mingrui to the end of the bed, and the domineering one occupied most of the area.
"That's my uncle, and I have a step-uncle." Xue Mingrui said.
Li Chengxun was surprised, "This uncle can also succeed?" ”
"Not really."
Xue Mingrui propped his head and looked at his cousin Li Chengxun who was leaning on the top of the bed, "My mother has a complicated relationship, my uncle is the eldest son of my grandmother, Princess Zhaoyang, and my mother is ......."
After listening to it for a long time, Li Chengxun also felt that the relationship here was really complicated.
Li Chengxun got out of bed and put on his shoes and socks, "Then it's very difficult for you." ”
Xue Mingrui plunged into the futon, "So you have to come to save me, help my cousin, tomorrow is really a favor." ”
Li Chengxun turned his head and put on his coat, and glanced back at Xue Mingrui, "You also know that I rarely gather outside, and most of the people who come to this dinner don't know each other. ”
Xue Mingrui got up and took out a roster from his arms and threw it to Li Chengxun.
Li Chengxun caught it, "What is this?" ”
"Open it and take a look."
Li Chengxun opened the booklet, and it was written that the person who might return from tomorrow's banquet was also attached. Seeing the back of each house, Li Chengxun was shocked, "Why do you even have a portrait of the lady in the boudoir?" ”
"This is not specially prepared for you, you are working behind closed doors every day, no one in Jiankang City knows, just take advantage of this time to familiarize yourself with it, I heard that after your grandmother's birthday, you are going to go to Guozijian, many of these families are studying in Guozijian, you can also contact and contact, I have made special marks for those, so as not to catch you blind as soon as you enter Guozijian."
Li Chengxun closed the booklet, "The thing is good and hearted, but you think I have repeatedly stated that it is okay to stay and not make trouble, if you really want me to do learning, then it is better to cut me with a knife." ”
Xue Mingrui leaned on the bed, "You weren't like this before, you were cute and read when you were a child, and every time you come to me and look at the books on the shelf, your eyes glow, why are you so disgusted now, isn't it that you have changed when you grow up?" ”
Li Chengxun didn't care about Xue Mingrui's muttering, and went out to find food by himself.
Xue Mingrui also went out, "I heard that you, a newly arrived maid, have good skills, you have eaten a lot of my silver, and now you still have a month's worth of food for me, no, I have to find and make up for it." ”
Li Chengxun took his hair out of the clothes behind him, "Whatever." ”
Xue Mingrui looked at the appearance of the full banquet of the Manchu and said in shock, "You eat these on weekdays, this is too extravagant and wasteful, right?" ”
Xue Mingrui tasted it, nodded and said, "Your girl is really good, why don't you give me your love?" ”
Li Chengxun glanced at him, "I can't stop your mouth if I eat." ”
Li Chengxun looked at Qingli, who was still serving food on the side, and ate the taste, "You don't cook these on weekdays?" You're too person-oriented! "Isn't this bullying her for having no sense of taste! Heaven is intolerable~~~
"Ahem~" Hearing his cousin Li Chengxun's tone, Xue Mingrui almost choked when he saw the familiarity between the two, "I'm not next to your eyes, right?" ”
Li Chengxun gave him a blank look, then ignored him, and shaved rice vigorously.
I don't know if there is a next meal after eating this meal, although there is no sense of taste, but the color and fragrance are still there, which does not delay her from appreciating the food.
Later, when Li Chengxun had dinner, Li Chengxun took a look, "Isn't there something going on tomorrow?" Why are you still here with me? ”
Xue Mingrui drank a cup of tea, "Because of her birthday, my aunt stayed in the house all day long, and asked me about Liu Heng's case, but now this Liu Heng has a lot of lives on his back, and he has already been transferred from Jingzhao Mansion to the Criminal Department, and this case is about to be concluded. ”
"Isn't this relationship hard?" Li Chengxun turned his head and thought about it, this Liu Heng's father was just a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, no matter how bad the Yong'an Earl's Mansion was, it was also the Earl's Mansion, except for the third generation. Besides, because the Countess was born in the English Principality, it shouldn't be much of a problem.
"The people from Liu's Mansion came to apologize and give gifts, but my aunt didn't see anything. Originally, it was nothing, but my aunt still let out cruel words and kept talking. Xue Mingrui sighed, "It's good to hide these things in your heart, why bother saying it, this relationship will definitely not be much better in the future, naturally it will not die."
But my aunt clearly said that she would let Liu Heng suffer in prison again. The Liu family sent someone to keep an eye on it, this has been sentenced, Liu Heng has already pleaded guilty, then law enforcement will be enforced according to the law, if Liu Heng is injured a little more in the cell, he will sue the officials of the Criminal Department for accepting bribes. ”
Li Chengxun shook his head, this kind of thing behind the scenes really shouldn't be put on the surface. Regarding the matter of his cheap cousin, Li Chengxun still felt guilty at the beginning and wanted to try to help, after all, this will be a happy thing in the future.
It's a pity that compared to Liu Heng, this person is really fifty steps and a hundred steps.
Liu Heng is more arrogant with his power to oppress people, and Wang Ruoheng of the Wang family is relying on his own son of the Earl's Palace, the British public young master, in the family, brothels, and restaurants, to exploit and exploit, and he is also a guy who treats human life like a mustard.
After a quick calculation, he said that this person has done too much evil and should be rewarded.
Later, Li Chengxun didn't care about such a thing, after all, it was dog eat dog, and it was not interesting for her to go.
"The way of the criminal department can't get through, the eldest aunt is angry, crying in the house all day long, I can't help it, I have to use the excuse to send the post out, otherwise I have to don't pull it in front of the old lady and be questioned by her."
"What about the people who have been suppressed by Liu Heng to avenge their grievances?" Li Chengxun asked.
"Liu Shilang said that we will fight up and down, this back and forth, up and down arguments, Your Majesty will let Dali Temple also intervene, anyway, this case is quite troublesome. But the temple of the Dali Temple is good, young and promising, more than a year older than your cousin and me, is a child of a family, you don't know, tomorrow he is entangled in customs affairs I am afraid that he will not be able to go, but if there is a chance in the future, I will introduce you to know. ”
"It seems that my cousin is very familiar with it." Li Chengxun said.
"My mother and his mother were close friends and had a very good relationship. When I was a child, I went to his family school, he is not good at words, he is a strict person, he pays great attention to details, I don't say much, but you know. ”
Seeing that his cousin admired this person so much, Li Chengxun was really a little curious.
However, an official in Dali Temple doesn't seem to have much to do with each other.
Later in the evening, the old butler came with something.
"Childe, Second Cousin Young Master Xue." The old housekeeper greeted Xue Mingrui, and said to Li Chengxun, "This is a birthday gift prepared by Grandpa Guo for his wife, and I bother the young master to bring it with him tomorrow." ”
