Text Chapter 78: Count 5
Ding Ping asked nervously: "If you really fall in love with someone, the slave will go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire to find out the whereabouts of that young lady for the prince......"
"Get out of the way!" Helian Yao raised his foot and kicked away Ding Ping, who was approaching, and said in a disdainful tone: "Take care of yourself, master's business, you don't need to ......"
"Lord, lord, it's not good, lord......"
The courtyard sounded the cry of a maid approaching, and the house fell silent.
"This asks the goose!" Ding Ping looked at the door and complained to Helian Yao: "Yelling! It's getting more and more unruly! ”
As soon as Ding Ping's words fell, the curtain in the inner room was lifted with a "bang", and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old maid with clear eyebrows hurriedly broke in, made a salute, and said in a panic: "Lord, the prince is not good!" ”
"Ask the geese! Look what you look like! Ding Ping accused: "There is something that our prince can't solve, it's worth ...... like this."
"Miss Yin Five!" Asked Yan hurriedly said: "Miss Yin Wu is coming in the direction of Jiu'an Courtyard!" ”
Jiu'an Courtyard is the main courtyard where Helian Yao is staying now.
"Huh!?" Asking Yan Yan's words made Ding Ping instantly dumbfounded.
Helian Yao, who was lying leisurely, frowned and slowly sat up.
"She, why is she here?" Ding Ping glared and stammered, "She, isn't she, isn't she going back?" ”
"I'm going back!" Asked Yan glanced at Ding Ping, and said angrily: "Isn't this coming again!" ”
"Why, why is it coming again? It's getting dark! Ding Ping pointed to the still bright sky outside the window, and the monkey hurriedly turned around in place, before he looked at Helian Yao with a frightened face and asked, "Lord Wang, what, what should I do?" ”
For various reasons, Ding Ping has only been in his life for fifteen years, and the person he is most afraid of is not his master, Prince Fu'an, let alone his father and brother, but the sister-in-law of the late Princess Fu'an, Miss Yin Wu of the Marquis of Wuning.
To say that Miss Yin Wu is also the number one beauty in the capital, but often just hearing the name of Miss Yin Wu, Ding Ping has to tremble in fear, let alone see Miss Yin Wu herself.
Seeing Ding Ping's embarrassing appearance, Wen Yan couldn't help but pout in disgust.
"Under what name did she come by?" Helian Yao asked with a slight frown.
Seeing Helian Yao's questioning, Wen Yan hurriedly straightened his complexion, and replied respectfully: "It is said that I can't rest assured that the little county lord is not at ease." ”
"Yu'er?" Helian Yao pinched his eyebrows and asked helplessly, "What's wrong with Yu'er?" ”
Wen Yan glanced at Helian Yao's face and said selectively: "...... The little county lord was clamoring to see the prince during lunch...... Miss Yin Wu persuaded the main county to eat more vegetables...... The little lord was a little angry...... Soiled Miss Yingo's dress......"
Ding Ping bared his teeth, his face full of schadenfreude.
Helian Yao sighed and shook his head.
"Isn't this a common thing?" Ding Ping asked with a puzzled expression: "Could it be that Miss Yin Wu finally can't help it this time, and is going to sue our little county lord with the prince?" ”
Complain? How can it be?
Wen Yan couldn't help but roll her eyes at Ding Ping, and said in her heart, if Miss Yin Wu really did that, wouldn't it be inconsistent with the image of a loving mother that she had worked so hard to maintain? She had worked so hard for so long, how could she do such a misguided thing at this critical juncture?
"Naturally, it's not a complaint!" Wen Yan said in a somewhat resentful tone: "I said that I was worried that our little county lord didn't eat anything, and I was afraid that I would hurt my body, so I specially made some food and sent it to ...... I heard that the prince was back, so I said that I would come over and discuss with the prince to find a few playmates of the same age for our little princess......"
"Tut-tut! Pull it down! What are you worried about our little county lord, she just wants to stuff a few Yin family members into the mansion again! Ding Ping snorted coldly and said angrily: "Our little county lord Jin Jiaoyu is expensive, so don't play with those people who can't be on the stage......
If you can't get on the stage again, it is also the Yin family of the Marquis of Wuning, which is the maiden family of the late princess, and when she saw Ding Ping say this, she lowered her head and looked like she didn't hear it.
Ding Ping didn't have any scruples about asking Yan, he was the youngest son of the grandmother of the prince of Fu'an, and he had been serving by the side of the prince of Fu'an since he was a child, and the friendship with the master was naturally much closer than asking the goose, besides, Ding Ping also knew in his heart that the prince of Fu'an just liked his temperament of saying whatever he wanted.
After scolding a few words about the whimsy of the Yin family, Ding Ping's face turned pale, and he asked Yan again: "Are you stupid?" Won't you tell her that our prince hasn't come back yet? So she won't be here......"
"What can I do!" Wen Yan glared at Ding Ping, and said unhappily: "Danmei has been staying in the mansion all along, she is watching our prince return to the mansion...... I can still talk nonsense to Miss Yin Wu with my eyes open! ”
Danmei is one of Miss Yin's eldest maids, although Miss Yinwu returned to Wuninghou's mansion, she let Danmei stay at the gatehouse, whether Helian Yao has returned to the house or not, Miss Yinwu is naturally clear in her heart.
"Tut-tut! This Yin Fifth Miss is also full of tricks in order to see our prince......" Ding Ping sighed, but saw Helian Yao straightening his clothes and walking out of the door, and couldn't help asking: "Lord Wang, you, where are you going?" ”
"Oh!" Helian Yao turned his head, as if he had just remembered, and said to Wen Yan: "Quick, quickly trap Ding Ping, and when Miss Yin Wu comes, let Ding Ping go and talk back." ”
"No, don't! Rajah! You can't go, Lord Wang! You bring the minions with you......" Ding Ping hurriedly struggled to ask for the restraint of the Yan, but he watched Helian Yao's figure disappear at the door, stunned, he turned to glare angrily at the Yan who was holding his legs, and scolded: "You, what kind of girl are you!" Holding the man's leg in broad daylight, you, you know if you know shame......"
Asked Yan sat on the ground, but the strength around Ding Ping's legs was not loose at all, after listening to Ding Ping's words, she raised her head, stared at Ding Ping with disdain, and asked seriously: "You?" You're a man, too! ”
"You!" Ding Ping was so angry that his neck was bruised, but at this time, he heard the voice of a little maid outside loudly asking Miss Yin Wu to say goodbye, and his face turned white again.
……
A day passed.
In the evening, in Xiyuan Wu's mother's house.
Wu's mother was wearing a headscarf on her head, her eyes were swollen, her face was haggard and dull, and she was nestled listlessly at the head of the bed.
"Godmother," Yuyan sat on the edge of the bed with a bowl of black pottion, scooped a spoonful of medicinal juice, blew it gently, handed it to Wu's mother's mouth, and persuaded: "After drinking the medicine, Godmother's illness will soon be cured." ”
Mother Wu lowered her head and drank a spoonful of medicine from Swift's hand, and then, she waved her hand weakly to prevent Swift from feeding her with a spoon again, but took the medicine bowl in Swift's hand, raised her head, and drank the medicine juice in one fell swoop.
Swift took the empty medicine bowl and twisted a piece of sour plum and sent it to Wu's mother's mouth.
Mother Wu shook her head gently, she didn't open her mouth, she closed her eyes slightly, as if she was recalling the bitterness in her mouth.
Swift watched from the sidelines, with three points of confusion and seven points of worry on her face.
Long.
Mother Wu breathed a long sigh of relief, as if she finally had some energy, and asked, "So, did you accidentally hear that the third lady was going to the Hall of Kindness?" ”
"Yes, I overheard it," Swift nodded hurriedly in response, "When Xia Qing ordered Luoying, she didn't know that I was outside the door." ”
Last night, Swift was going to the teahouse to ask for a pot of tea, but just walked to the door, but listened to Xia Qing's voice telling Luoying.
"This bag of pastries was specially bought by Miss for Aunt Luo's grandmother, you put it alone, be careful not to find it later......"
At that time, when Yuyan heard such words, she couldn't help but pause, hooked her head to look inside, and saw Luo Ying take a package from Xia Qing's hand, she didn't know what she thought, before Xia Qing went out, she subconsciously dodged, and after that, she didn't have the heart to ask for tea, thinking about Wu's mother's warning to talk less, and remembering that Wu's mother said that on the premise of not betraying Mrs. Tai, she tried her best to help the third lady......
Swift struggled for a day and a night, and in the end, she still came to Xiyuan to ask Wu's mother for advice......
Seeing that Mother Wu had been silent in thought, Yuyan couldn't help but ask, "Godmother, we, should we remind the third lady?" The lady Liu who guarded the door was because she went to the Kindness Hall twice, and after Mrs. Tai found out, she was exempted from her errand with a word......
The mother-in-law in the mouth of the swift was the mother-in-law who was responsible for guarding the back door of the garden, and back then, Aunt Luo's grandmother suddenly returned home, and everyone was naturally very curious about Aunt Luo's grandmother, but from Aunt Luo's living arrangement, everyone also saw that Mrs. Tai did not like Aunt Luo's grandmother, so people usually avoided approaching the Kindness Hall.
Because the place of the errand is close to the Good Heart Hall, and it may be that she can't hold back the curiosity in her heart, Mrs. Liu was the first to board the door of the Good Heart Hall, although there were only two times, but, somehow, it was soon known by Mrs. Tai, and on the same day, Mrs. Tai found the reason why Mrs. Liu was not careless on an errand, and beat two sticks and was exempted from the errand.
Mrs. Liu is considered an old man who has served in the mansion all her life, but Mrs. Tai has no face at all...... Thinking of this, Swift was even more worried about Wei Man's situation after visiting the Good Heart Hall.
"You've been serving in Manhui Garden for so long," Mother Wu asked, "Do you think the third lady is smart?" ”
"Nature is smart!" Swift immediately nodded and said, "Third Miss is the smartest person I've ever met!" ”
"That's right," Mother Wu seemed to laugh, and asked Swift rhetorically: "Since the third miss is so smart, then, do you think, the third miss will not know that Mrs. Tai doesn't like Aunt Luo?" ”
