Chapter 600: Understanding
and they are all related to each other, and something will soon spread all over the world. That day in the shop, within one night, about half of the Miss Destiny knew about it, and it became a joke topic these days. I see, I'm only afraid of January and February, this Mrs. Chen doesn't dare to meet people casually! ”
Qingwan also felt relieved: "This can be regarded as cheap for her." ”
"Not really! But then again, when I went back to the house that night, my mother-in-law also knew about it, and specially asked me to go over and talk for a long time, don't look at the rest of the ladies in the house, they usually have a compassionate face, in fact, there are really a lot of harsh people, but it just so happens that no one knows. Lu Xiufang said as she spoke, her voice gradually lowered: "My mother-in-law also warned me to be less nosy in the future and not to affect the overall situation." He also said that I didn't know these things since I was a child, and I would have to learn more in the future. ”
Qingwan was a little surprised: "Did she really say that?" ”
"I understand what she means, it's obvious that she is using this incident to beat me from a small family," Lu Xiufang tightened the handkerchief in her hand: "I endured it and didn't say anything, otherwise, according to my temper, I would have been angry!" ”
"Don't just try to be happy," Qingwan also felt unfair: "It's useless to say more." As long as you do two beautiful things for your mother-in-law in the future, she will naturally not dare to underestimate you. In this matter, I also caused you to be burdened. ”
"No, no, second sister-in-law, don't say that." Lu Xiufang hurriedly grabbed her hand: "What does this have to do with you?" Without Gardenia, sooner or later she will find fault with me, and even if you don't keep Gardenia, I won't die without help. ”
"Good sister, thank you for your understanding."
"Fortunately, Zhu Yan understands the matter," Lu Xiufang said: "He comforted me privately for a long time, otherwise, I really want to spill my anger on him!" ”
Qingwan couldn't help but smile: "This can't be done!" What does this have to do with Zhu Yan? Isn't it that the city gate is on fire, and the fish in the pond are affected? ”
Lu Xiufang couldn't help but sneer, and suddenly saw Gardenia coming over with tea, looking at them, with tears in her eyes: "The words of the two ladies just now, the slave and maid heard it, but the slave and maid didn't mean to, just came over to pour tea, and overheard it, although the two ladies said that the slave and maid didn't understand, but they also understood that it was all for the slave and maid, so there was a lot of turmoil, which made the slave and maid's sin heavier." ”
"Don't say that," Qingwan said, "It's not something you should worry about. Just do what you're supposed to do. How's it going, do you feel better these days? ”
Gardenia smiled gratefully: "Thank you, madam, the slave is completely well and can do any job." ”
"That's good," Lu Xiufang continued: "You just came, and you are not very familiar with the situation of the shop." I'll send a guy back and teach you the properties of all kinds of cosmetics first, and you can memorize them all before learning the rest. ”
Gardenia hurriedly agreed, and said: "The slave maid sees that everyone is very busy, but I am afraid that it will disturb others, Brother Chengyong is recuperating recently, why don't you let the slave and maid learn from him?" In this way, so as not to cause trouble to others. ”
Lu Xiufang thought about it, and then said: "That's it, but it also kills two birds with one stone, Heng Chengyong is also an idle person, always stuffy in the house, I'm afraid that I am not used to it, and you just happen to accompany him to talk." ”
"Then the slave and maid will retire first."
Looking at the back that was long gone, Qingwan smiled knowingly: "What, you want to pull the red line?" ”
"Look at the two of them, it's a natural pair," Lu Xiufang is enthusiastic: "You didn't listen to what Gardenia said, it clearly meant something." The opportunity has been given, and the rest is up to them. ”
Qingwan smiled and nodded.
"There is one more thing, Grandma Liu Shao quietly sent someone to say that she had scolded the shopkeeper and sent her to the countryside with one breath left." Lu Xiufang said: "Aren't you sending away the limelight?" For the sake of the friendship between the Zhu and Liu families, I don't care about her anymore. As long as our secret recipe is not lost, we will let them go. But with this incident, it is said that Chen Shangshu has also restrained a lot in the past two days, it turns out that in the court, he is always proud of his achievements, and often wants to pick Zhu Yan's fault, but now he doesn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and his respectful attitude is unbelievable! ”
"Everything is done." Qingwan said: "It just so happens that there is nothing to do in the shop these days, so I won't come, and when the family is settled, it is time to set off on a certain day." ”
"Second sister-in-law, can't you stay a few more days?" Lu Xiufang was reluctant to give up: "The two places are so far apart, it is not easy for you to come back once." ”
"Your second brother is at home alone, and I can't rest assured, I really take care of this end, and I can't take care of that end." Seeing that there were regular customers in the store, Qingwan said: "Okay, you go and say hello, I'll go back first, so as not to be known about my return to Beijing." ”
Lu Xiufang understood, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the female guest to greet her. Here Qingwan took advantage of people's inattention, went out and got in the car.
In the next few days, the attention of the whole family was focused on the patient, but fortunately, Hanguan's body has always been strong, and with the careful care of Qingwan, he has almost recovered. But everyone coincidentally had a tacit understanding, no one dared to mention the marriage, and they were carefully avoiding this minefield.
Seeing that the disease was cured, Qingwan counted the dates and planned to go back to Qianzhou. But before leaving, she thought about convincing her parents.
On this day, Hanguang also took a vacation, everyone was there, taking advantage of the opportunity for everyone to drink tea, Qingwan was about to speak, and suddenly saw the maid come in with a letter: "Second aunt and grandmother, it's a letter from Qianzhou." ”
A look at the cover, Qingwan was shocked, before parting, the two had made an appointment, if there was really anything big, draw a plum blossom on the letter, see the small pattern, Qingwan's heart hung high.
"Is my uncle here?" He said: "Presumably urging you to go back?" ”
Qingwan didn't have time to answer, so she hurriedly opened the letter, only to see a few short lines written on it, but every sentence hit her heart hard.
The last time Qingwan's letter arrived, Lu Yanyi casually put it on the table. Coincidentally, Qinglu was worried in his heart, and quietly sent Ah Line to sneak into Qianzhou, to ask about the situation, but saw the letter, learned that Hanguan was seriously ill, and went back to tell the princess, Qinglu was very anxious, knowing that his father could not let himself out, and the horse thief was ready to come late at night, and was found by the guards, which provoked the Turkic king to be very angry, and in a fit of anger, he imprisoned the heron, and in order to vent his anger, he sent soldiers to the border to harass, and the situation was extremely chaotic.
When Lu Yanyi found out that the letter had been stolen, he hurriedly went to the Turks to explain, but the Turkic king was extremely angry and refused to see anyone, and the border was about to be blocked, so he had to try to hand over a letter to Ah Xian, in which he told Qinglu not to worry, and he would definitely come up with a solution as soon as possible.
Lu Yanyi came back first. The prefect of Qianzhou has already heard about the imperial court, and the excerpt and this letter should have arrived at the same time.
"It's not a big deal," Qingwan reluctantly smiled and comforted her parents: "Just ask how your second elder is doing." Let me not rush back, everything is fine in Qianzhou. ”
As she said this, Hanguan looked at her intently and saw something strange. Eyes rolled: "Second sister, why haven't you given me the book you said you were looking for me that day?" Forgot about the back of your neck, right? ”
Looking at each other, Qingwan immediately understood what his younger brother meant: "Look at my memory!" Come with me into the room, and won't I be able to give it to you now? ”
When the sisters and brothers returned to the room, Hanguan immediately half-closed the door: "Did something big happen in Qianzhou?" ”
"See for yourself."
Hanguan swept the handwriting on the letter, and his face became snow-white: "No! I'm going to have to go to the Turks! ”
"Be quiet! Beware of Daddy Hearing Me! Qingwan hurriedly said: "You are single-handed, and you have no power to tie the chicken, what's the use of going?" ”
"Then how can I let the heron get into such a situation? If I don't save her, will I sit idly by? Hanguan was very painful: "It's all because of me!" She's going to steal horses! Otherwise, there would not have been such consequences! How could I fail her? ”
"According to what I think, when the excerpt of the Qianzhou prefect arrives, within two days, the imperial court will definitely react, let's see the situation and then move."
"What the second sister said is that I was in a hurry." Hanguan thought for a while: "I haven't entered the court for so many days, and I can't say anything about vacation, so I'll go to the yamen, and by the way, I can also inquire about any new movements." ”
As soon as he said this, he suddenly heard the maid outside rushing in and replied loudly: "There are two people here, saying that there is something important to invite the second son to enter the court immediately!" ”
When the sister and brother heard this, they realized that something big must have happened, and hurriedly opened the door and rushed to the upper room, but saw that the herald had already come in, and Hanguang was changing his clothes: "Dad, mother, don't worry, probably because the matter of the war horse yesterday was not discussed." ”
After saying that, he hurried out of the house.
In this way, where can Hanguan still sit still? Impatiently, he also went to change his clothes: "I also have to go to the yamen to see." ”
Seeing the brothers go one after the other, Qing Boding and his wife seemed to have a premonition: "Fang'er, tell your father the truth, what's wrong?" ”
"You're thinking too much," Qingwan suppressed her worries, and said with a calm smile: "The second brother was called for official business, and the eldest brother just told me that I had to go to the yamen to have a look." What could it be? ”
"Hey," He sighed: "You children have always reported good news and not bad news, and always refuse to tell the truth. ”
"You said that, but you really wronged me," Qingwan hurriedly smiled: "Think about it, what is there that I haven't lied about?" ”
"Forget it, if you don't say it, don't say it," He said: "I can't help my mother, and I can't manage it if I want to!" ”
Qingwan accompanied her father and mother to speak, but her heart was worried about her two younger brothers all the time.
Until sunset and dusk, dinner was ready, and no one returned.
He couldn't sit still, and paced back and forth in the room: "No matter what, I want to ask someone to send a letter back, your eldest brother is even more angry, this serious illness has just recovered, and he hasn't been neat yet, so he has to go to the yamen, what is the strength?" ”
