324 Gentle (2nd Shift)
Xiao He sat down, listening to it with some schadenfreude, and his eyes were shining.
This time, it can be regarded as grabbing the handle of Duanmujun!
Not to mention anything else, just because Duanmu Jun accepted a gift from a man and went out of the house privately with the man, he was inevitably charged with a private confession.
However, soon, Xiao He's frowned slightly, and said: "Mother, you have to take care of Sister Guan'er's girl, she acts so frivolously and unruly, if she continues like this, I am afraid that she will ruin the reputation of other girls in the house...... It's tired of Sister Qi! ”
Xiao He couldn't help but feel aggrieved for his daughter, "Sister Qi is unlucky enough to be involved in such a family affair as the Yang family," In the final analysis, it is not because of Duanmujun that Duanmuqi will be pointed out by the emperor to Yang Sangongzi, "If you have a bad reputation, how can Sister Qi be good?!" ”
As he spoke, Xiao He's moved a little, and his eyes were slightly red. Hey, I really pity her sister Qi.
In contrast, He Shi was a lot calmer, slowly twisted the Buddha beads in his hand, and glanced at Xiao He, "What are you anxious about, you have to wait for the old lady to come back, and judge her speechless in front of the old lady!" ”
This time, she must completely step on the soles of the sisters in the long room, so that the two sisters can no longer show off their power in front of her.
He narrowed his eyes, and a bright and sharp light burst out of his eyes, which was bound to win.
At this moment, there was a sound of messy footsteps outside the house, and a little maid quickly opened the curtain of Concubine Xiang and came in, and said respectfully: "Mrs. Tai, someone has come to the palace, it is Mama Cheng who serves by the side of the concubine." ”
As soon as they heard that it was Duanmu Guifei who had sent someone, He and Xiao He glanced at each other in some surprise, and they were all happy, and Xiao He hurriedly said, "Don't hurry up and invite people in." ”
The little maid hurriedly took the order and left, and after a while, she personally led Mama Cheng to the left room.
He straightened his waist and sat on a rosewood swastika bed with his head arhat, looking graceful and noble, calm and relaxed.
"I've seen Mrs. Duanmu," Mama Cheng smiled and blessed the He family, and the description seemed to be no different from usual, "The slave maid was ordered by the noble concubine to invite Mrs. Tai into the palace for a while." ”
Since the flower-viewing banquet in Hanfangyuan, the He family has never seen Duanmu Guifei, even before the He family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to Zhuangzi, and later they were taken to the He family, and they didn't see the concubine pleading for her, and the He family actually had some complaints in his heart.
This dissatisfaction, after months of suppression, inevitably overflows.
"The concubine Niangniang encountered some difficulties, and then she remembered me as a mother." There was a hint of yin and yang in He's voice.
Mama Cheng was silent, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, and said to the mud: "Mrs. Duanmu, how can this mother and daughter have an overnight feud!" "Mama Cheng is the nurse of Duanmu Guifei, and she also knows a little bit about He's character, and she doesn't mention Duanmu Jun and the Golden Seven Girl.
He Shi's face finally softened a little when he heard this, as the saying goes, mother and daughter are connected, and He has long wanted to reconcile with Duanmu Guifei, but there is no suitable time for a while, this time, Duanmu Guifei took the initiative to send someone to pick her up, which can be regarded as giving her enough face.
He Shi was silent for a moment, and finally came down the steps, and sighed: "These children are all debts from the previous life, so I will accompany you on a trip." ”
He explained a few words to Xiao He, and then left with Mama Cheng.
The carriage in the palace carried the He family out of Duanmu Mansion in a hurry, galloped along Quanyu Street in the direction of the palace, and staggered with another green canopy carriage, so the corner gate of Duanmu Mansion had just been closed, and it opened with a "squeak", welcoming Duanmu's carriage into the mansion.
Duanmu Jun came back from the palace, and after seeing the concubine, half of the boulder in her heart fell.
It couldn't be better for Duanmu Guifei to come forward in this matter, but she still has to show her grandfather Duanmu Xian as soon as possible.
Duanmujun absentmindedly got out of the carriage at the Yimen, and at this time, it was more than half of the Shen hour, and the sunset had begun to sink, obliquely shining on the earth, dragging the shadows of all things slender.
Duanmujun walked in the direction of Zhanqing Courtyard without hurrying, and his mind was racing.
My sister has just made a small decision, if something messes happen in this house, won't it make my sister faceless?!
This matter must not be too big...... Duanmu said to himself.
"Quack!"
Unconsciously, Zhanqing Courtyard appeared more than ten zhang away in front of her, and saw a jet-black starling "whooshing" past the wall of the courtyard, flapping its wings and swooping towards her.
The little starling circled around her mantis, screaming endlessly with "croak, bad", as if he was righteously condemning her for helping others just now and not helping it, and asking her where the "wild" had gone, and no one was seen for an afternoon!
Duanmujun looked at the little starling's way of jumping up and down, listening to its disgusted cry, and felt funny in his heart.
She raised her hand and beckoned to it, then crossed her left arm.
The little starling was already very familiar with Duanmu's action, and immediately spread his wings and flew towards her left arm, landed firmly on her forearm, clenched her sleeve with a pair of bird claws, and raised his chin and "croaked" a few times, as if to say, it is useless for you to coax it now.
Duanmujun stretched out his finger and scratched the little starling's chin twice a little carelessly, comforting the little guy, and couldn't help but think of the scene when the little starling sneaked up at Cen Yin's feet just now and was about to wait for the opportunity to move.
This Hachi still knows about the sneak attack? …… I'm afraid I learned it from Danzi, right?!
Duanmu couldn't help but smile, his eyebrows and eyes soft. Fortunately, Cen Yin was generous and too lazy to worry about a little starling.
"Hachi." Duanmu Jun looked at the little guy seriously, and his slender fingers tapped on its forehead.
"Quack?" The little starling tilted the bird's head, and the cute little appearance seemed to say, what are you calling me for?
Duanmu Jun bowed his head slightly, put his right hand to his mouth, pretended to whisper to it, and said in a low voice: "Little Ba, in fact, Lord Cen is a very good person. ”
"Quack?!" The little starling didn't understand it at all, and originally thought that Duanmujun was trying to please himself, but he didn't say anything.
It glared at her with disgust, flapped its wings and flew away, spreading its wings and flying back to the Zhanqing Courtyard in front of it.
Duanmujun shook his head a little funny, and was about to continue walking, when he thought of something again, and instructed Wisteria: "Wisteria, you find someone to keep an eye on the front yard, if the old lady comes back, come and greet me." ”
"Yes, big girl." Wisteria answered, and quickly recruited a little maid in Tsing Yi and ordered her to go to the gate to guard, while Duanmujun went back to the house directly.
The Zhanqing Courtyard where Duanmu was absent was not deserted, and the noisy voice of the little starling came from the direction of the small study one after another.
Duanmujun heard the sound and left, and saw that it was flapping its wings and jumping on the square table by the window, and kept screaming at the little fox curled up in a ball, as if complaining, but the little fox turned a deaf ear, didn't even move, and seemed to be sleeping deeply, even if Duanmujun entered the house, it didn't cause any reaction from it.
These two little guys are really different in temperament.
Looking at this bird and a fox, Duanmujun's mood became extremely happy, she walked to the window and sat down, and took out a dark purse embroidered with silver bamboo leaves that she had made a few days ago from her sleeve.
"Quack!" When the little starling saw the purse, he immediately forgot that he was still angry, and excitedly put the purse in its tender yellow beak, and proudly showed off to the little fox......
A purse finally made the little starling laugh, and he felt that he was the boss in this house.
It condescended to let Duanmu touch itself, and then flew to the courtyard to have fun.
The sun was still setting, and the golden red sunlight wrapped a brilliant halo over its shiny black feathers......
When the sun set outside, Wisteria lifted the curtain and entered the small study, and walked in a hurry.
Duanmujun thought that Duanmuxian was back, but Wisteria said in a deep voice: "Big girl, Gonggong Ma is here." ”
Duanmujun stood up, his right eyebrow was slightly raised, and a bad premonition vaguely appeared in his heart, and he immediately went to meet Ma Gonggong at the Yimen with Wisteria.
In the distance, a middle-aged eunuch wearing a cyan plate-collared shirt and holding a dusty whisk was walking back and forth in front of the Yimen, unable to hide his anxiety.
Seeing Duanmu Jun coming, Ma Gonggong hurriedly greeted him, he was sweating profusely, he politely arched his hand at her and said, "Duanmu girl, I'm bothered." ”
"Our family just chased from Guiyibo Mansion to the South City Gate, but still didn't catch up, calculate the time, people are afraid that they have already left the suburbs of Beijing, so our family did not continue to chase forward...... I thought about it, I still came to find the girl, I want to ask the girl to think of a way here, let's go back to the palace first and return to the concubine. ”
Ma Gonggong came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
He must enter the palace when the sun sets completely, otherwise the palace door is locked and he will not be able to enter.
Duanmu Jun watched the back of Gonggong Ma riding out of the horse, stood at the door of the instrument and groaned for a moment, and then decisively ordered Wisteria: "Prepare the horse!" I'm going to Xiangyun Lane! ”
At this moment, Duanmuxian is not in the mansion, she is afraid that the guards of this outer courtyard are not easy to send, and this time she is going out of Beijing to chase people, and the people who are chasing are from Guiyibo's mansion, she thinks about it, this matter still has to be entrusted to Li Tingyou, the Li family's guards are all from the army, and they are the Li family's cronies, they are vigorous and resolute, and more importantly, their mouths are strict enough.
This thing must be done quickly, and it must not reveal a little rumor and ruin the reputation of the Duanmu family.
Wisteria knew that the stakes were very high, and immediately ordered the groom to prepare the horse, and without a cup of tea, Duanmu Jun rode out again, and the porter didn't know what was going on at all, but felt that the house was particularly lively today, and there were two groups of people in the palace, and the masters also went out in a row, as if something important had happened......
Halfway through the sunset, there were no pedestrians on the streets, and the smoke could be seen rising, signaling that the day was almost over.
The sound of horses' hooves echoed in the empty bluestone brick streets, especially loudly.
Duanmu Jun galloped out of a street, and heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves coming from behind, getting closer and closer, as the sound of horses' hooves approached, a somewhat familiar male voice came from behind him: "Duanmu girl stays." ”
Duanmu sighed, pulled the horse rope, and the red horse under his crotch slowed down while snorting, and after a while, he saw the little scorpion riding the horse to his side.
"Scorpion father-in-law." Duanmu Jun looked at the other party with a smile.
The little scorpion grabbed the horse rope, hugged his fist at Duanmujun, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I came in time to catch up with the girl......" Looking at his direction and listening to his tone, it seemed that he had just chased from Duanmu's house, "Big girl, don't worry." The 'man' has been found. ”
The little scorpion meaningfully increased the volume on the word "human", and showed a tacit smile at Duanmujun, his eyes were sharp. From their east factory, even if this person has wings, don't want to fly!
After Duanmu Jun was stunned, he immediately figured it out and breathed a sigh of relief.
She was about to thank the other party, but was interrupted by a croaking sound, and the little starling flew over with a purse, and landed firmly on the horse's neck, and jumped again, complaining that Duanmuqi actually dropped it again and sneaked out to play.
Looking at this bold starling, the little scorpion's face was a little complicated, it was really ignorant and fearless. Dare to be so arrogant in front of the Overseer, and still intend to steal the Overseer's things, this is probably the only bird.
The little scorpion suddenly felt that he couldn't look directly at this starling, and arched his hand at Duanmujun again, so he said goodbye by going back to his life.
The sound of horses' hooves soon faded away on the wide street, and Duanmu sat on his horse, watching the little scorpion go away, and the bright willow eyes shone like broken gems in the afterglow of the setting sun.
"Hachi!" She looked down at the little starling on horseback and sighed softly, "Lord Cen is really a gentle person. ”
"Quack?!"
