Chapter Eighty-Four: I Took It to Heart
In the teahouse, Jun Su, who was standing behind the screen, listened quietly to the discussion of the guests.
"The concubine of Prime Minister Yu's family poisoned her sister, how could this woman's heart be so ruthless."
"Who said no, I heard that the concubine was jealous that Miss Yu and the prince were engaged, not only poisoning her sister, but also making her unable to conceive an heir in the future."
"I heard that Miss Yu interceded for her to help the maid who poisoned her, but Miss Yu was so kind-hearted but suffered this robbery, alas, ......"
"Why did Miss Yu intercede for that maid, no matter how you say it, she was also the one who almost took her own life, not to mention that her life was saved, but if she couldn't conceive an heir, her marriage with the prince couldn't be completed."
"I said it all, it's Miss Yu's kindness!"
"Hey! You are so protective of Miss Yu, don't you like Miss Yu. ”
Jun Su looked through the gap in the screen hollow, and the yellowed face of the rough old man turned red in an instant, and he slapped the table and said, "Miss Yu is so kind-hearted, I just like her, what's wrong?" ”
The other person smiled and said disdainfully: "You don't look at which onion you are, you also want to see if Miss Yu is enough." ”
Jun Su smiled bitterly, shook his head again, walked out of the screen and sat at the small wooden table, habitually turned his head to look at the private room, it was empty, and he slapped the wood in his hand, and closed his mouth quietly, waiting quietly for him to speak.
"Today, I want to tell the sad story of the poor scholar and the daughter of the rich family......"
There was a sudden sound of cheering in the hall, and I heard Jun Su say that the scholar accidentally fell into the bamboo forest and couldn't get up when he accidentally fell into the wall of the daughter's house, and happened to meet the daughter, and when the scholar was nervous and couldn't speak, there was a burst of laughter in the hall.
Only the rough old man looked at Jun Su and didn't smile.
Wei Yun hasn't gone out much in the past few days, she heard about the Prime Minister's Mansion from Chuntang, she didn't express any opinion just nodded lightly, Chuntang still had a stomach of grievances, and when she saw that Miss didn't speak, she had to give up.
On this day, the spring was brilliant, the sun was neither cold nor hot, Wei Yun extorted a book of excerpts from the little doorman, at first the little doorman insisted that he was gone, and looked at Wei Yun pitifully and said: "Last time, he saved three months of monthly money to sell the book. ”
Wei Yun looked at him, waved his hand regretfully, and said: "Since you don't have it, forget it, I still remember Chuntang told me that Aunt Wang's granddaughter still asked her about you, I remember Chuntang said two good words or bad things to her?" ”
"Yes!" The little doorman blushed, and said with some resentment: "There is also a tile that I hid next to the stone lion at the door. ”
Seeing that he was hit by the dew and had a little resurgence, Wei Yun praised from the bottom of his heart: "You really know how to hide." ”
The little doorman looked at the book at this time, ignoring Wei Yun's words.
He hasn't had time to read this book yet.
Wei Yun patted him on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, I will let Chuntang say two good words in front of Aunt Wang for you." ”
The little doorman hurriedly said: "What's the use of talking to Aunt Wang, you have to talk to her granddaughter." ”
Wei Yun shook her head, put away the book in a glance, and said enlighteningly: "Young man, what's the use of letting her granddaughter favor you, the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders, if Aunt Wang thinks you can't do it, everything is not in vain, and told Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang thinks you can do it, and her granddaughter is not ......" Speaking of the back, she shook her fan and raised her eyebrows.
The little doorman felt that the more Wei Yun said, the more reasonable it became, the young lady deserved to have read a book, and she saw things differently than ordinary people, so she cast envious eyes on her own young lady at the moment, and was about to ask if she needed to behave in front of Aunt Wang and her granddaughter, when she heard Wei Yun ask a little uncertain and serious: "How old are you this year, nine or ten?" ”
When he mentioned this little doorman, he was immediately deflated, put away his envious gaze, and said in disgust: "Eleven." ”
Wei Yun nodded, thought for a while and said, "I remember, Aunt Wang's granddaughter is fourteen, and she is about to die." ”
The little doorman looked at Wei Yun's gaze and became more and more resentful, he regretted it, he shouldn't be tempted by a little profit, he should know what kind of person his young lady is.
He said with some confidence: "The female junior holds the gold brick." ”
Wei Yun nodded and exclaimed: "The young man has ambition. After saying that, he went back to read the script, leaving the young man alone to think about life in the wind.
"Miss, Miss Yu asked someone to send a post." Chuntang came over with a golden post, saw the white fox lying next to the pond and fishing for fish with its paws, bent down to hold it in his arms, gently tapped its head with the post, and reprimanded: "You can't catch the fish in the pond, that's the koi fish that bring good luck to the young lady." ”
The white fox used his ink-like eyes to call out twice in Chuntang's arms, and then stretched out his pink tongue to pick Chuntang's fingers flatteringly.
Chuntang thought for a while, patted the white fox's head, and said with a smile: "Then I'll ask Miki to go to the back kitchen to steal a few fish for you." ”
Yan Sen, who was standing on the side, heard this, and the breath in his chest almost fell to the ground, he sat on the steps and looked at the sun on the wall, thinking about the reason why he was sent here by his master.
Every day, they either climb the wall to catch sparrows, or go around looking for lost white foxes, and now they have to go to the back kitchen to steal fish......
Wei Yun took her eyes off the script and looked at the post she received, which was indeed written by Miss Yu herself, probably meaning that she would be invited to the Garden tomorrow night to thank her in person.
Handing the post to Chuntang, she asked happily after reading it, "Does Miss go to the banquet?" ”
It's a good thing that someone invited Miss, Miss hasn't been out for a few days, and she spends all day in the yard, either reading books or practicing swords, and playing with the paper fan from time to time.
Wei Yun nodded and said, "Go ahead, the food cooked by the chef in the Gathering Garden is quite delicious." ”
Along with the family affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion, as well as Major General Lin's meritorious investigation of the case, and the promotion to the third rank has also become a topic of discussion after dinner, focusing on the fact that Major General Lin is young and has reached the third grade, he is still handsome and knowledgeable, not to mention the air and grandeur, at least he is also a talent, and I don't know who he will marry into the family in the future? As soon as this question was thrown out, everyone invariably thought that Major General Lin often ran to the Wei Mansion.
Thinking that their daughter had little chance, everyone changed to another topic sadly and tacitly: I heard that the emperor did not want to promote Major General Lin's official product at that time, but Prime Minister Yu Cheng asked for it for Major General Lin, so Major General Lin's official position has not changed, although his official rank has been promoted, he still has no real power in his hands.
As soon as these words came out, they were shocked. Everyone speculated why the emperor was reluctant to promote Major General Lin.
Wei Yun was still looking down at the book, and Chuntang urged her: "Miss, come and let the slave maid dress up, it's too late at night." ”
She waved her hand without raising her head and said, "Wait, wait, the scholar is going to pick up the wall of a thousand gold." ”
"Miss!" Chuntang held several sets of skirts in his hand and screamed weakly.
She raised her head impatiently, and was startled when she saw those gorgeous dresses: "It's just to go to an ordinary meal, there's no need to dress like this." ”
Chuntang walked over and whispered: "You don't understand this young lady, the slave maid asked Miki to inquire, and Major General Lin was also invited by Miss Yu to go tonight." ”
Yan Sen felt that there was something wrong with Chuntang's words, he just went back and asked if his master was going, why did he become an inquiry when he arrived at Chuntang? Do you still need to inquire about your own master?
Miss Yu's invitation to Lin Mo was expected, and her eyes lowered to read the script, "So? ”
Chuntang picked up her face, and said with a look of hatred: "Miss take this opportunity to behave well in front of Major General Lin." ”
Wei Yun didn't know why: "What to behave, what I usually wear, it's not like I haven't seen it before." ”
Chuntang hurriedly said: "Oh, this is not the time, the slave maid heard that several big families are inquiring about Major General Lin, and they are going to tell their own girl a matchmaker, miss, you ......"
"Stop!" Wei Yun hurriedly interrupted Chuntang's words, looked at her helplessly, and said, "Wear how you usually wear it tonight, don't worry about that." ”
Chuntang looked at her and suddenly woke up: "What Miss said makes sense, lust is indulgent, this trick is good." After that, he went to look for a dress.
Yan Sen pondered in the courtyard, how is this how lust is used?
In the end, Chuntang chose a plain pink skirt for Wei Yun, and the skirt was embroidered with stripes.
When Lin Mo returned to Wei Mansion in a sedan chair, there was no half a person at the door, and when he walked in, he saw the little doorman holding his chin with a pestle, and his face was puzzled.
Hearing the footsteps, the little doorman raised his head and saw that it was Lin Mo, paused, looked up and down for a while, and frowned even deeper.
Lin Mo didn't know why, he lowered his head to see if there was any discomfort in wearing the table today, and after checking for a while, he didn't find any problems, and when he was about to ask, the little doorman spoke first.
"Where do you like my young lady?"
Lin Mo was stunned at first, and then chuckled.
The little doorman's head ached, and he turned his head to look over, and Wei Yun was standing behind him.
"Do you want to make a good impression in front of Aunt Wang?"
The little doorman covered his head and explained flatteringly: "I didn't say anything bad about Miss just now, I just asked for Miss Miss." ”
How is this so familiar?
Wei Yun looked at Lin Mo and said with a smile: "Tong Yan Wuji, don't take it to heart." ”
Lin Mo smiled and said, "I took it to heart." ”
Today, Lin Mo was dressed in white, and Wei Yun, who was the same as the vegetarian fan, stood together, nodded with the appearance of a little doorman and an adult, and expressed his opinion: "In the end, it is still right." After saying that, my head hurt again.
Lin Mo nodded again and said, "This time, I also took it to heart." ”
The two got into the sedan chair, and Lin Mo looked at Wei Yun with a smile for a long time.
Wei Yun's face was flushed, the fan in his hand snapped on his hand, glared at Lin Mo, and said angrily: "Look at what!" ”
Lin Mo said with a straight face: "Did you wipe the rouge today?" It's pretty good. ”
