Chapter 662: Detecting the Mole
Chungui turned around and closed the door, the resentful look disappeared instantly, she stood against the door for a while, and then dragged her steps into the inner room in a trance and planted her head on the bed, she heard that she didn't know whether Qingping or Ju Xi deliberately lowered her steps into the room, and then turned over and lay on her back, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, she heard a almost inaudible sigh, and then left with a gentle footstep, Chungui opened her eyes again.
For many nights, she couldn't sleep well.
Looking at the top of the tent with her eyes open like this, her mind was empty, and she endured bursts of angina pectoris and watched the sky shine in a trance, as if she had been punished for a day at night like this, but she actually knew that such negativity was useless.
The atmosphere in Anheiyuan was gloomy for many days.
Qingping has long been anxious, but now that Mei is serving in the Comfort House, she can only find Ju Xi, a "colleague" who seems to be unreliable, to discuss: "If the eldest grandmother complains about the uncle for a long time, it will not be a problem, how many loving couples are gradually estranged because of such estrangement, and when they can never return to intimacy, we still have to find a way to persuade the eldest grandmother, if you want to talk about it, you can't blame the uncle for this matter in the uncle's family......"
"Grandma didn't seriously complain about the uncle." Ju Xi took Qingping's hand and lowered her voice: "I grew up with my grandmother, I know the temperament of my grandmother best, and I won't blame others for no reason, grandma is punishing herself, and she also doesn't want to let her uncle be sad, and now at such a critical time, the uncle has so much official business outside and has to be busy, in case he is distracted, there will be a bigger mistake...... In short, the grandmother does this for the good of the uncle, instead of going to the grandmother to be irritable, it is better to take care of the uncle's daily life carefully, and there is no need to say anything superfluous, do your duty. ”
Qingping was a little surprised that Ju Xi proposed to do her duty this time, and she wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh, so she turned into a sigh: "I listened to you this time, but I was worried that the eldest grandmother would be too ...... to mourn."
"Don't worry." Ju shy turned her face and looked at the lightly closed door: "Grandma is not a weak woman who has not experienced the wind and waves, she is sad and sad, and she will not be crushed by this incident, to be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the eldest lady of the Li family made such a thing today...... The eldest grandmother's mood was already slowly calming down, why did she make such a fuss again. ”
Ju Xi is really resentful of Li Wanyan.
Qingping is naturally also the same enemy: "My uncle's family is all there."
is a good person, but only Mrs. Li is such a troublemaker, when who doesn't know what she thinks about blindly currying favor with the old lady, she dares to think about it! Even if the uncle will inevitably have to take a concubine in the future, and he can't accept the grandmother's cousin to come in and be a child, no one who knows a little bit of decency can do such a ridiculous thing, and the old lady really wants to make such nonsense, and the clan will not tolerate it. ”
"We have to pay attention to Mrs. Li, keep an eye on her and don't let her get into trouble and damage the reputation of the uncle." Ju shy also said.
Chungui actually didn't take Li Wanyan's actions to heart at all, what she cared about was that her eldest aunt was still dedicated to protecting her at this time, and this heavy family affection made her more ashamed.
On this day, Chu Chu came to visit again.
Originally, the Yuanhai murder case was over in the eyes of most people, and Chen Shi and his wife were no longer worried about imprisonment when they returned to Fengjun Pavilion, but after all, the Liang family had not spoken, and maybe in the future, they would open their mouths to accuse Chu Chu of instigating, and there were still some variables; Moreover, Chunhui's foreign family followed up with such an accident, and everyone in the Manwu Palace knew that Gu Yiren was deeply saddened, and as Chungui's confidant and friend, Chu Chu was also willing to stay in the Wu Palace for a while.
When she came back, she made an appointment with Ding.
The two didn't mention the accident of the Li family, only talked about some gossip, sat for about half an hour, and then left.
"Grandma is going to rest for a while?" Ju asked thoughtfully.
"I don't sleep anymore, I sleep more weakly." Chungui took a sip of tea and pretended to ask unintentionally: "How are you doing these days?" ”
Ju Xi sat down next to Chungui, and said with a smile: "Uncle has never been angry with the eldest grandmother, although it is late to return to Anping Courtyard, I have never forgotten to ask the slaves and maids if the grandmother's mood has improved, that is...... I heard Tang Hui say that the grain chiefs in various places have been selected and assigned in place one after another, and the uncle and officials are busy checking that there are any middle households and lower households that have been assessed in violation of the law, and they also have to pay attention to whether the local officials have committed the crime of privately increasing miscellaneous taxes. ”
When he returned from the spring, he confessed to Ju Xi: "Then you will remember something, and at the beginning of the afternoon and the end of the Shen Dynasty, you will personally send the meal to the outer courtyard and remind the uncle to eat on time." ”
Ju smiled again.
Of course, when I was secretly thinking about delivering lunch and dinner, I had to explain to the uncle, this was the grandmother's instructions, and the uncle knew that the grandmother didn't seriously mess with him, don't look at it
Ri's face was cold and indifferent, but he was still worried about the uncle's well-being.
Listen to Chun Gui again: "You go quietly, let Jiao Xing come to Anping Courtyard, and be careful not to make too much trouble." ”
Although Ju Xi usually likes to make trouble and laugh, he is actually a clever ghost, and he can fully understand the meaning of "don't make too much noise".
She took a half-made pair of shoes and went to look for Jiaoxing.
Hua Xiaoji was sitting under the corridor reading a book, and he was impatient with a maid standing next to him to serve, and Jiao Xing was far away, but he still left an opinion A maid came to whisper with Jiao Xing, and just glanced over there twice, until Jiao Xing came over to change his tea, he asked: "Where was the maid just now?" ”
"It's Ju Shy, who is on duty in Anheiyuan." Jiao Xing doesn't talk much, what to ask and answer.
"But what is Gu Yiren's send? Really, you focus on the affairs over there first, and I don't need you to stay here an inch. ”
"It's not that Gu Yiren is sent, it's that there are a lot of things in Anping Courtyard, and the shoes that Ju Xi made for her have to be delayed, so she asked the slave maid to take the time to do it for her, so as not to see that the weather is cold, and she still has to wear single shoes."
Hua Xiaoji didn't ask much after hearing this.
When he sat bored and finally went out for a walk, Jiao Xing went to Anping Courtyard to see the spring return.
Listening to Chun Gui ask about whether Hua Xiaoji had any strange behaviors in this period, such as whether he had secretly interacted with the palace people in the palace of King Wu, Jiao Xing beat the drum in her heart, and replied truthfully: "Yesterday, the uncle also summoned the slave and maid to ask Hua Langjun about his actions in the palace of Wu Wang, and the slave and maid were also truthful, Hua Langjun had not been in contact with the palace people in the Wu Palace, neither took the initiative to interact with them, nor did anyone find Hua Langjun.
Only many wingmen are busy with the axis, only Hua Langjun is free, he himself will inevitably feel depressed, every three or five times, he will go out, as for where to go, the slave maid is not clear, but as the weather turns cooler, even the day is cloudy and rainy, Hua Langjun has not gone out for a while, at most it is to wander in a few courtyard gardens in the outer courtyard of Wu Wanggong, yes, the only time I have gone out recently, or ...... Accompanied the Li family to Xiangfu Temple to set up a mourning hall. ”
Jiao Xing was already alert, and she was questioned separately by the uncle and grandmother, and she suddenly realized that the two masters were probably suspecting that the accident of Mrs. Li was related to Hua Xiaoji.
