Chapter XXIV
Mu Qing woke up with a splitting headache. These days he is no longer drunk, he is completely drunk, but fortunately, he has a good drink, and he doesn't sleep noisy or noisy when he drinks it.
The old man knew Mu Qing, and he completely let him vent. Yuehua watched him go with the flow day by day, drunk and dreamed of death, and secretly rejoiced in his heart: he was completely useless, and his father would definitely return the silver building to himself. But he knocked on his father a few times, but the old man didn't do anything, and only let the shopkeeper Wang take over temporarily, and Yuehua's expectations were disappointed.
Outside the door, someone knocked timidly, knocking very lightly and hesitantly.
The door opened, Mu Qing was very surprised, the person who came was Rong Ma.
Rong's mother wanted to speak and stopped, Mu Qing asked her to relax, even if she said it.
Mother Rong said: "I plan to go back to my hometown in the countryside, and I specially came to bid farewell to the second young master." β
He was surprised to hear that she was leaving.
"I have been serving Miss since I was a child, and now that Miss is married, it is not interesting for me to stay any longer, I wanted to tell Miss earlier, but I didn't expect her to entrust me with the key to the drawer, and I couldn't tell her at that time."
Rong Ma took out a key and handed it to Mu Qingdao, "I'm leaving, it's not appropriate to hold the key anymore, the only person who can be entrusted is you, the second young master, she is the best with you, presumably Miss is also willing, I hope you can take good care of it." β
ββ¦β¦ When is your car, do you want me to deliver you? Mu Qing held the key and asked slowly.
"No, no, no. My nephew from the countryside came to pick me up. Rong's mother refused.
Mu Qing was no longer reluctant, got up to open the door for her, and sent her out.
Mother Rong sighed: "Second Young Master, don't get drunk anymore." I can see that Miss Three is actually very sad for you. β
"Okay." Mu Qing replied in a low voice, "You also have to take care." β
Rong's mother nodded and went back to the utility room to pack her bags.
Mu Qing gripped the key in his hand and pinched it hot.
It's been a long time since I've stepped into this room of Zhilan, and it turns out that he is just as touched by the scene, he sits at the desk in her room, imagining her reading books and writing a diary at the desk. Diary! The thought made him pause, and his headache was relieved by more than half. Why was she still in love the day before, and her attitude changed the next day? Unsolved mysteries resurfaced in the depths of his mind, believing that the answer lay in the small key in his hand.
With a click, he opened her drawer. He took out her diary and read it page by page, and he also read the unimportant parts carefully, for fear of missing every word.
Li Fuli Wan Linglong Shi Ran came to be a guest. Jing Ru saw Zhi Lan, the previous intimacy was completely gone, and he was only an enemy with a cold face and a cold heart.
Zhilan saluted and shouted, "Auntie, cousin." And he silently accompanied.
Wan Xinqiao sisters chatted about the people and things in the past, and Jingru also joined in the chat, only Zhilan found herself like a fool, unable to interject and unable to leave the table, and kept drinking tea to hide the embarrassment in her heart. I drank too much tea but there was a side effect, and I was going to be complimented after a while, and I couldn't bear it, so I had to let Shuanghua help me go to the toilet to escape.
Wan Xinqiao glanced at her back, and Jing Ruquan saw it in her eyes.
"It's as quiet as you get more and more watery." Wan Xin skillfully pulled her, as if he couldn't see enough. She has no daughters under her knees, but she loves this niece who has grown up since she was a child, and said with a smile.
"Originally, I wanted to match Ru'er and Shaowen, I didn't want him to have another love, fate couldn't be forced, fortunately, Shaowu hadn't married yet, and he was almost old, I think he was interesting to Ru'er in his conversation, why don't you have a kiss and kiss? Our Shaowu is very good with Ru'er, it depends on Ru'er's wishes. β
"Sister, I have to ask Shaowu's opinion on this matter." Wan Linglong said.
"The important thing is Ru'er, Shaowu and his eldest brother have different temperaments. If you say yes, he'll agree. "It's all ingenious.
Zhilan returned to the door of the hall just to hear the truth, it seems that her sister is destined to marry, and she thinks that she has poached Li Shaowen, which is under the same roof, I am afraid that I will not be able to argue in the future, and the sisterhood will really come to an end.
She slowly returned to her position, pricked up her ears to listen to Jingru's reply, Jingru was a little hesitant, caught a glimpse of Zhilan sitting in the position, and immediately said, "Auntie, I am willing." Brother Shaowu is good, I am willing to marry him. β
The daughter opened Chrysostom, Wan Linglong naturally wanted to follow the wishes of her baby daughter, and the two discussed the marriage as soon as possible, Zhilan lowered her head and took a sip of tea, unintentionally glancing at Jing Ru as if she was provocative.
Mu Qing was sitting at the desk reading Zhilan's diary, and Li Shaowen's appearance and approaching Lan'er step by step made him feel unaware of the guilt and blockage. A few more pages, he saw the fateful textβ
June 3rd
Li Shaowen asked me out, and he told me that the wedding date had been advanced, and the new date was next Wednesday. Although Mu Qing repeatedly told me to leave all the matters of divorce to him, but after all, he was far away in Echeng, coupled with my father's words last night, I was so helpless, he was in the hall today, I think he must be victorious. I don't want to see him, but things are far worse than I thought, the eldest lady actually used Rong's mother to knock on the door to force me to agree to Li Shaowen's date, if my mother is still there, I don't think I will reach a desperate situation today. I don't have time, maybe this is the last time to make it clear to him face to face, if I return his love token, it will be completely broken.
During the dinner, I mentioned the breakup and divorce, but he became angry and drove me to a private garden, where I ...... Took away my virginity...... How did I get completely stuck in a situation where there was no way back? Can anyone help me! If Mu Qing knew about this, what else could he do but be angry? Everyone in this family stands on the opposite side of me and Mu Qing, and everyone hopes that I will marry Li Shaowen calmly, I am not the third lady in this gorgeous house, why should I be willful? What else can you get in exchange for punishing the cheap? I'd rather not tell Mu Qing and let him forget about me slowly. It's impossible for me and him, sooner or later this matter will still be a scar in our hearts, why bother to uncover the bloody? Please, Zhou Zhilan, let it go.
The scarred handwriting is particularly glaring. His hand holding the notebook trembled. I don't want the reason to be like this, isn't June 3 the day he hurried back? No wonder I was so restless and crazy that day that I was looking for the whereabouts of Zhilan, but I ignored it as a big fool and a big fool, why didn't I ask a few more words! She has been deeply hurt by Li Shaowen, doesn't her attitude make her worse? He couldn't imagine how she could survive the lonely nights before she got married, and she didn't show up to comfort her!
"Zhou Muqing! You stupid fool! He cursed himself! Calm down from the shock and self-blame, things are still strange. He wondered, what did his father say to her? The eldest mother used Rong Ma to force each other, she must have accepted her father's meaning. Why is he always absent every time Li Shaowen takes Lan'er away at a critical moment? He also suddenly remembered that he had obviously come back to ask Phoenix that day, and what was even more odious was that she actually lied and said that Zhilan and Rong's mother had gone out.
I didn't expect that Phoenix had served me for so many years, but in the end she betrayed herself. Unforgivable! He clenched his fists fiercely, and calculated everything, just like Zhilan wrote, behind his back, the family was standing opposite to them, and viciously showed his sharp blade and stabbed him.
"Phoenix, come here." Mu Qing read the diary with a gloomy face, and the first thing he did was to find Phoenix to inquire.
"Why are you lying to me?"
Phoenix was stunned, he had long thought of this day, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. It must have been Mama Rong who told the second young master when she left. She still has to think of a countermeasure, the second young master eats soft and not hard, it is better to take the soft first and grasp the initiative.
She knelt down and said: "Second Young Master, I lied to you, I have a hard time, Second Young Master, you and Third Miss are brother and sister, Third Miss's matter, Phoenix begs you not to worry about it anymore, okay?" She's found Ruyi Langjun, and you don't need to worry about it anymore, do you? β
"When will it be your turn to decide my affairs? I hate it the most - having to find a bunch of reasons for doing something wrong. Mu Qing shouted angrily, "Phoenix, you are not young, it seems that it is time to find a good family for you and send you out." β
"Second Young Master, don't do it! Please! I don't marry, I want to serve you for the rest of my life. As soon as she heard that she was going to be sent out, Phoenix pleaded, she cried intermittently, "Second Young Master, Phoenix has respected and loved you since she was a child, I know that our identities are very different, I don't ask for anything, don't drive me away, okay?" β
Mu Qing was a little surprised when she heard this: "So you are jealous of my brother and sister relationship with Lan'er, and you deliberately don't tell me where she is?" You are such a vicious woman, and your heart can be punished! His heart can be punished!! β
The phoenix was poked by Mu Qing, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and burst into tears: "Young master, spare me, Phoenix will never dare again." For the sake of Phoenix's love for serving you for so many years, I don't dare to ask for your forgiveness, I just ask you not to drive me away, okay? I...... I...... There is nowhere to go. β
Mu Qing was touched by her thoroughly, and saw her begging with tears in her eyes, thinking that she had served herself for many years, and her tone softened: "I can not drive you away." Butβyou can't serve me very much, I'll tell the butler to let you change the environment, this is already my greatest tolerance for you, you go. β
Mu Qing turned his back, and the phoenix kowtowed behind him and retreated quietly.
Wan Xinqiao of the Li Mansion left his sister and niece to eat, they were frequent customers, and they deliberately cooked some of their favorite dishes in the kitchen, watching the three of them eat and chat affectionately, Zhilan was completely ignored, and her heart was somewhat uncomfortable.
Sitting like a wood at the table, which is like a quiet mouth is lively and lively, Wan Xinqiao sincerely likes Jingru, and he will settle down with Shao Wu another day, so that she can enter the mansion and become the real Li family.
After disposing of the phoenix, Mu Qing was very sober, and his father and aunt were both the promoters of Zhilan's marriage. And Li Shaowen pushed the boat down the river, he was like a giant spider, releasing appropriate bait, using both soft and hard to guide the Zhou family to step into his net step by step, and finally succeeded in kidnapping Zhilan from under his nose. It's ridiculous that he is blind, drunk every day, and gives his opponent a chance.
He can't be fiddled with so lightly, he must take back the Arashi.
Steward Zhou came to report, saying that Phoenix invited himself to the kitchen to help, and picked Caiping to serve in the maid, and said that Caiping was still young, and if there was a mistake, please take care of Yunyun more. As he spoke, he let Caiping in.
Mu Qing looked at her intently, a little girl who was only in her early sixteens, reminded him of the phoenix back then, and it was only this age that she came to be his companion. It's just that the phoenix has two clever eyes, which is impressive.
Mu Qing agreed, and the first thing Caiping did was to clean up the various red wines in the room.
The order was set, Steward Zhou looked at the young master Tuesday who was completely excited, he regained his former spirit, and then ordered Caiping to make a basin of cold water, he wiped his face with a towel, changed his clothes and went to the dining room for a light meal.
