Chapter 43: Confrontation
"Mother, you can ask your father about this."
Liu's heart sank, and he secretly said that Mo Shaowen had done something to make his daughter unhappy.
"Then let Cuixin follow you and carry you things."
"No, I'll be back soon." Mo Jiu refused.
Liu felt that the relationship with his daughter had just eased, and it was not good to force her, for fear of giving birth to a gap. I had to tell her to be careful when she went out and come back early.
After Mo Jiu walked away for a while, the maid Cuixin who was standing beside her wondered, "Madam, why don't you let Miss make the carriage?" This can not only logically let the young lady take the maid, but also make the young lady less tired? ”
"Jiu'er was hungry for a whole day yesterday, but when she came back, she only ate two mouthfuls of food. I went to the doctor, and the doctor said that some people are not used to riding in a carriage, and riding in a carriage will make them lose their appetite and feel nauseous and want to vomit. That's why I didn't let Jiu'er sit. Liu said as he walked towards the living room.
"Madam, do you want the slave to follow the young lady secretly, in case something happens?"
"No need, Jiu'er is very assertive, if she knows, I'm afraid she will be unhappy."
When Cui Xin heard Liu say this, she also closed her mouth and followed quietly behind.
Liu walked to the door of the living room and did not go in, but waited on the side.
Then a maid came up and saw her: "Madame." ”
"Is the master still meeting guests now?"
The maid shook her head: "No, the guest just left, and the master is drinking tea at this moment." ”
After hearing this, Liu nodded, waved his hand to let the maid retreat, and let Cuixin also wait outside, and walked in by himself.
"Is the master busy now?"
Mo Shaowen has been with Liu for many years, and he can see at a glance that she is not in the right mood, and his heart is tight: "Don't be busy, don't be busy, is there anything wrong with Madame?" ”
"It's nothing, just to ask what happened to Jiu'er's maid? I didn't see any of them this morning. Liu picked up the teacup slowly and took a sip: "I asked Jiu'er, but Jiu'er let me ask you." ”
As soon as these words came out, Mo Shaowen's somewhat nervous face immediately became serious: "Jiu'er is talking about jade." ”
"Jade?"
Cuiyu was originally Liu's maid, so she still knows the girl's temperament more or less, and she will not cause trouble.
Originally, she thought that the maid of Green Willow had caused something to make the master punish her, and she was implicated in Jade. Now it doesn't seem like what she thought before.
"Yesterday I was busy with business and did not come back until the evening, and on the way back I happened to meet Jade covered in wounds. When she saw me, she hurriedly threw herself into my carriage and said that Jiu'er was in danger and asked me to go to the palace to save Jiu'er. At that time, I didn't think much about it, so I let the carriage turn around and go to the palace, not bothering about the jade ......," Mo Shaowen said and sighed.
"What about jade!" Liu's face showed an anxious emotion: "It won't be that he hasn't come back yet!" ”
"After I returned to the house, I remembered that Cuiyu came, so I asked about Cuiyu's situation, but no one knew where Cuiyu went, only that Cuiyu had returned."
"Didn't you look for it? This Prime Minister's Mansion is so big, where can it go! ”
Mo Shaowen saw that Liu was a little excited, knowing that Cuiyu was her half-grown child, so he must have been a little concerned and comforted him and said: "I found it, I found it, and let the doctor come to see it." ”
Hearing him say this, Liu's mood was slightly better: "That jade ......"
