Chapter 29: Hesitation
"Two for what?"
"Although I am a woman, I have also heard that the Holy Lord is unwilling to give an edict to the eldest girl, because there is only such a child in the Hou Mansion. If Brother Yu also goes to the Hou Mansion, the position of the prince will fall on Brother Yu. not only rescued the eldest girl, but also gave Brother Yu and the Marquis of Huaixing a favor. Isn't it the best of both worlds? ”
Seeing that Li Yueran began to waver, Qian simply took another dose of fierce news: "Whether it is the eldest girl or Brother Yu'er, they are the flesh and blood of the master." There is no loss to the master, and you can get the closeness of the Huaixing Marquis Mansion, why not? ”
"There's some truth to what you're saying."
Li Yueran nodded approvingly, and shook his head violently as if he suddenly remembered something.
"No! If I take the initiative to speak, I am afraid that I will be rejected by Master Hou. He didn't like me to ask Feng'er about his family affairs the most, so he wanted to bring it up at this time...... Not only is Master Hou unhappy, but even Feng'er has to get estranged from me! ”
"Since the master doesn't want to mention it, let Brother Yu mention it himself."
"Him?"
"Brother Yu has to make trouble every time he goes home. Since he didn't want to stay in Bofu, he followed his words and let him go back to the Hou Mansion. Maybe Brother Yu is resentful that he was not the one who was sent to the Lu family back then. ”
"He dares! He has a knighthood if he stays in the Li family! Our Li family didn't treat him badly! ”
Qian gently patted Li Yueran's chest and said, "Master, whether this title is the same or not, you know better than anyone else." Does the master want a son who can't be raised? Do you still want a son who is unfamiliar but respects you? ”
Li Yueran was moved by Qian's words and hesitated again.
"This person, there must always be a little distance, save some face for each other. If you can't get along, you have to be bound up, and you will only be bound to become enemies. ”
Li Yueran took a hot handkerchief in Qian's hand and covered it on his eyes: "This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run, you must not leak the news." ”
"Yes."
The corners of Qian's mouth turned up, and he laughed from the heart.
The next day, after having lunch in the Huaixing Marquis Mansion, Li Jiangwei led her mother-in-law and maid back to Uncle Anyuan's Mansion. Turning the corner, the bustling sound on the street attracted Li Jiangwei to open the corner of the screen window. Through that small corner, I happened to see the sedan chair passing by the Wenjin bookstore.
Li Jiangwei summoned the mother-in-law who followed the sedan chair to the bookstore to buy two copies of "Overseas Lost".
"Fourth Miss, these books can't be bought!" The mother-in-law is not Li Jiangwei's close person, and there are many twists and turns, "Miss, did you forget to read idle books a few days ago and was punished by your wife?" ”
"Mama doesn't need to be reminded, I remember. If Mama doesn't want to run errands, I'll get out of the sedan and buy it myself. It's not a big deal to buy books for my brothers who are going to school. ”
"Please also ask the fourth lady to share some peace."
Li Jiangwei sank her face and said, "There are some words, I advise you to think about it before you talk about it." ”
Before the woman could react to the meaning of her words, she already felt a chill down her spine.
"If there is anything wrong with me, you can go and report it to your mother, and she will adjudicate it. Mama is not the person in front of her mother, no matter who she offends, this day is not easy. ”
If this matter was put in the past, this mother-in-law would not take Li Jiangwei's words to heart. Now Li Qianyun is allowed to be the wife of the Feng family, which in the eyes of the subordinates of An Yuanbo's mansion, it is like a sparrow flying on the branch and becoming a phoenix. Before provoking Miss Five, you have to think about the face of the Feng family.
Who in the house doesn't know the friendship between the twin sisters of Miss Fourth and Miss Five?
The more I think about it, the more I am afraid.
"It's just about buying two books, and you're not going to have to do it. I just wanted to buy books as a personal favor, and my father wouldn't say anything. ”
After speaking, Li Jiangwei took out the silver and handed it out.
"If you have any more, you can keep it."
The mother-in-law, who was still hesitating, immediately grinned when she saw Yinzi. Where is the shelf just now? nodded and smiled and said a few kind words, and went to the bookstore to buy books.
Saying goes. Money talks. With money in hand, life for myself and my sister will be much easier, and my sister doesn't have to work so hard to help herself.
When you have money in hand, you know how good money is.
didn't have any money, even if she was a young lady, a serious master in the Bofu, she had a hard time. Even the clothes made in the public school had to be delayed for a few days. If I don't have any money today, I'm afraid I will have to grind with this grandmother on the street for a long time.
If this silver didn't involve the royal family, Li Jiangwei would be even more excited.
"Girl!" This mother-in-law brought back a book, which was "Overseas Traces" that Li Jiangwei wanted.
"Why is there only one copy?"
"The girl didn't know that this book was just a trial print, and the stock of the bookstore was not large. When the old slave went, there was only this one left! The mother-in-law was afraid that Li Jiangwei would mistakenly think that she was lying and take the money away, so she continued: "If the girl doesn't believe it! You can send someone else to ask! ”
"Just one book."
When she got home, Li Jiangwei took "Overseas Lost" to Xiaoxiang Courtyard. A lot of bamboo is planted in Xiaoxiang Courtyard, and you can still feel a little cool under the swaying of the bamboo shadow.
Li Jiangwei saw Qinshu doing needles on the corridor. casually asked, "Is my sister sleeping?" ”
Qin Shu shook his head, put down the needle and thread in his hand and replied, "I don't know either." The girl has been very strange these days, and has always locked herself in the house. ”
When Li Jiangwei heard this, she couldn't help frowning and looked in the direction of the room.
"If the girl is not in a hurry to go in, shall I bring her some fruit?"
"It's not good for my body to eat raw and cold things." Li Jiangwei rejected Qinshu's kindness, and continued to ask: "Tell me first, what has my sister done in the past two days?" ”
Qin Shu turned his head and coughed twice, and then replied: "Since the last time the fourth girl left, the state of our girls has been worse day by day, and the amount of food is much less than before. ”
Thinking of this qin book, I couldn't help but sigh, and said, "Qin Yan and I have asked the girl what happened. But the girl just wouldn't speak. Except for the meal, the girl told us to stay outside and lock ourselves in the house. I used to know that the girl was reading, but lately I've been listening outside the door...... You can always hear the girl's footsteps going back and forth. ”
Qin Shu looked at the room and sighed again, "I used to talk to the fourth girl like this, and the girl had already come out to see the fourth girl." I'm afraid I don't know what I'm thinking, and I can't listen to us anymore. ”
After saying that, there was another cough.
"What's wrong with you?"
Qin Shu shook his head and said with a smile: "It's not in the way, it's just that there is a little cool breeze blowing at night, and my throat is dry." Fourth girl, go in and take a look at the girl......"
Li Jiangwei had long expected that Li Jiangyun would hesitate, but she never expected that she would fall into a state of restlessness and thoughtlessness. Pushing open the door, Li Jiangyun really paced in the room as Qinshu said. Seeing Li Jiangwei, Li Jiangyun was stunned.
"Sister?" The disbelief in that expression made Li Jiangwei a little crying and laughing.
"Why is my sister here? Why didn't you listen to the briefing? ”
"I've been talking by the door for a long time. You can't hear it in there, you can't hear it so close to the door? ”
Li Jiangwei smiled and quipped, easing the dull atmosphere in the room.
"Don't go, let's sit down and talk." Li Jiangwei smiled and climbed on Li Jiangyun's shoulders and pushed her to the edge of the chair. Then press and press the person to the seat.
