Chapter 209: Misunderstanding (2)
Because Gu Yutang didn't stay in the Lin family's courtyard last night, and didn't come to greet her, the Lin family kept her in mind until the second half of the night.
As soon as it was dawn, a ray of light poured in through the gap in the window lattice. Lin also woke up, and soon after waking up, he called Mama Liang into the house and asked Gu Yutang if he had returned home.
Mama Liang looked at Lin's worried face, but smiled instead, and asked the little maid to come in with breakfast before she replied.
"Old lady, don't worry, the third girl came back just after the third watch last night, and she was personally sent back to the house by the third son of the Fan family."
Mama Liang stood beside Lin and spread vegetables, sandwiched a few pieces of dried radish into Lin's porridge, and continued: "Old lady, when the old slave went to the big kitchen, he met Miss Ah Hua in the third girl's house, and Miss Ah Hua said that the third girl woke up and would come to greet you later. ”
"Let her not come, she came back after the third watch, how many hours did she sleep? Now that she is growing up, let her talk more, call the maid over, and say that I don't want her to come to me today. ”
Lin said, took another piece of oil fermented bean curd, and put it into his gruel.
"Old lady, this oil bean curd is from Lunan, the second old man knows that the old lady eats in the morning, and she always eats some pickled vegetables and white porridge, and knows that the old lady loves salty. This oil fermented bean curd is a native product of Lunan, and the second master entrusted the relationship to bring it back to you. ”
Mama Liang smiled and stepped back from behind the Lin family.
called a maid who was waiting outside the house, let her go to the third girl's house, and told the third girl that she didn't have to come over this morning to say goodbye. The maid got Mama Liang's instructions, and the work in her hand went out of the courtyard and went in the direction of the east chamber.
Seeing the maid out of the yard, Mama Liang returned to the house and continued to stand beside Lin and wait.
"Old lady, I heard from the person who was waiting at the concierge that when the third girl came back yesterday, she didn't see the Jiang family's brother. Yesterday, it was obvious that the Jiang family brother asked the three girls to go out to the temple fair, but when the three girls came back, they didn't see the figure of the Jiang family's brother. Mama Liang continued to serve Lin's vegetables and scooped a little pickled meat into Lin's bowl.
"The mother-in-law with the car clearly went to the Puji Temple in the east of the city, and I heard that the Jiang family brother went to the Puning Temple in the west of the city. Do you think these two people can see each other smoothly? ”
Last night, the Lin family sent someone to inquire.
After inquiring about this, I found out that Jiang Zhiming went to Puning Temple in the west of the city, and Sister Tang went to Puji Temple in the east of the city.
One city west, one city east, it's strange to see people?
"The third girl and the Jiang family brother didn't go to the same place, so naturally they couldn't see each other. I don't know who the girl who passed the word is, I'm afraid that I heard the west of the city as the east of the city, so that the three girls could see the son of the Jiang family smoothly. As soon as Mama Liang finished speaking, a maid came in outside the house, a maid who was guarding outside the courtyard.
After the maid saluted, she said, "Old lady, the son of the Jiang family is here, saying that he is here to greet the old lady." The slave maid said that the old lady was having breakfast, and the son of the Jiang family said that he would wait for the old lady to have breakfast before coming in, and the slave and maid couldn't make up their minds, so they came to ask the old lady. ”
When the Lin family heard this, he asked lightly, "When the son of the Jiang family came, did he say that he had breakfast?"
The little maid shook her head, obviously not knowing. However, as far as the few little maids in her room were concerned, few of them were bold, so naturally they didn't dare to ask Jiang Zhiming about this.
Lin instructed Mama Liang to go to the small kitchen and get a set of utensils and put them on the table, so that the little maid who came in earlier invited Jiang Zhiming in.
Jiang Zhiming was led into the small hall of Lin's hospitality by the little maid, and some breakfast was set on the table of the Eight Immortals with sour branches, and the Lin family sat in the middle of the Eight Immortals table, using the food on the table, and a new set of tableware had been placed on the table, which was obviously prepared for him.
After Jiang Zhiming saluted according to the rules, he slowly sat down on the stool and chair next to the table of the Eight Immortals, and said lightly. "I know that I haven't seen Mrs. Lin for a long time, and I think of Mrs. Lin in my heart. When I woke up this morning, I thought I would come and see your old man's house. ”
Then, Jiang Zhiming looked around the house, but didn't see Gu Yutang, could it be that Gu Yutang didn't come over to say hello this morning?
Jiang Zhiming felt strange in his heart, and asked again: "Old Madam Lin, why didn't you see the third girl?" Could it be that she slept lazily today and couldn't get up to say hello to Old Madam Lin?"
Lin looked at him as if he was a drunkard and didn't mean to drink, and knew that he didn't come to greet himself today, but to find Sister Tang's girl. I didn't want to demolish him, but I asked.
"Brother Zhiming, when Sister Tang came back late last night, I sent someone over to say that I didn't want her to come over early in the morning to say goodbye. Did you come to see her, or did you come to see the old woman?"
When Jiang Zhiming heard this, he smiled sarcastically, is he so obvious? Just three or two sentences, let Mrs. Lin know that he came to see Gu Yutang. Fortunately, Mrs. Lin gave him face and did not demolish him in person.
After thinking for a long time, Jiang Zhiming said.
"Old Madam Lin, I know that I haven't seen Mrs. Lin for a long time, and I want to come over to see you and say hello to you. Naturally, I came to see you, but I just saw that the third girl was not here and asked. ”
"Brother Zhiming, is he really here to see the old woman? Didn't you even think about looking at others? Lin deliberately tried him and asked again.
Fortunately, Jiang Zhiming's mind turned quickly, if he said that in addition to coming to see Mrs. Lin, he also wanted to meet Gu Yutang, and explained to Gu Yutang the reason why he didn't show up at the temple fair last night.
So if he said that he had come to see Mrs. Lin in particular, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?
In order to prevent a slap in the face, Jiang Zhiming could only be cheeky and said, "Old Mrs. Lin, Zhiming came to see you, is it possible that there is still a fake?" ”
"No fake, no fake! Brother Zhiming made a special trip to see the old woman, and the old woman was too late to be happy, where would she suspect Brother Zhiming?"
Lin smiled faintly, since everyone knows that Brother Ming said this, if he continues to ask questions, it will be his own.
Anyway, she knew that Brother Zhiming'er was not only coming to see herself, but also thinking about coming to see Sister Tang.
Seeing that Brother Zhiming tried his best to see Sister Tang, he must be very concerned in his heart, and he will marry Sister Tang to the Hou Mansion in the future, with Jiang Zhiming protecting Sister Tang, no matter how difficult it is for the Tao family, he is not afraid.
While speaking, Mama Liang had already filled Jiang Zhiming with a bowl of white porridge, sandwiched a few pieces of dried radish and bean curd into a small plate, and set them aside.
"I heard that Brother Zhiming and Sister Tang went to the temple fair last night, and by mistake and Sister Tang went to the wrong place, Brother Zhiming went to Puning Temple in the west of the city, and Sister Tang went to Puji Temple in the east of the city, it was such a great opportunity last night, you two didn't grasp it firmly, it's a pity!"
As Lin spoke, Jiang Zhiming's face on the side had changed slightly.
It turned out that he and Gu Yutang's stupid girl went to the wrong place last night, and the news that he didn't see anyone had spread. What can I do?
If you let Gu Yutang's stupid girl know that he and a man bumped into a pigeon on the street, I am afraid that when the time comes, Gu Yutang will scrape him alive?
