Volume 1 Chapter 36 Believe me, I can
There was silence in the carriage for a while. Sister Hua's voice rang in my ears.
"Sister Yueqiao."
Fu Qiao ignored him.
I still closed my eyes, trying to hear what Sister Hua had to say.
"Yesterday ......" Sister Hua said in a low voice, as if she was a little hesitant, "I can't do anything about that case." It's not that I don't want to help Zhao Shuang, it's not that I think he is ......poor," Sister Hua paused, "It's really that he can't come up with evidence to prove that he has ransomed Miss Huaihua." ”
There was silence in the carriage for a while.
"The owner of the Sophora Girl took out the deed of sale in front of everyone in the lobby, and this makes me not sentence her to continue to be a maid in that house." Sister Hua's voice rose again, "In front of the evidence, I'm not emotional. ”
"Didn't that give you any good?" Fu Qiao finally replied to Sister Hua's words, saying a little yin and yang, "Or...... You see that the acacia flower is good-looking, and you want to redeem her yourself and bring her into the house? ”
"How could I be that kind of shameless person!" Sister Hua spoke in a somewhat excited tone, and her voice was a little louder.
Fu Qiao didn't talk.
"Am I the kind of person in my sister's heart?" Sister Hua's voice sounded very sad, "Although I like luxurious things, all the items in my house are seriously bought by me with my money. Sister Hua stopped for a long time, "There is still ...... Beauty...... Sophora she is good-looking. But if she already has someone she likes, how can I rob others of their favor? Not to mention ......"
"What's more?" Fu Qiao asked him.
"I ...... You ......" Sister Hua hesitated, "Since I have you in my heart, I won't like others anymore." ”
Peace was again between the two.
"That'...... You can't ruin the marriage between Huaihua and Zhao Shuang. "This time it was Fu Qiao who spoke first.
"I'm not going to ruin a marriage." Sister Hua said, her tone calmed down a lot, "But the current situation of the two of them, let me think about it again." ”
"What to consider!" Fu Qiao's voice sounded a little aggressive, "Since the two of them love each other, why can't they be together!" ”
"Sophora is a slave."
Fu Qiao didn't speak. But I know she's definitely in a bad mood right now.
"I know you don't like this kind of hierarchy." Sister Hua said, "But this is Youyang, and there are rules for Youyang." Slaves are not allowed to marry the Lord himself. You wait for me to think of a way to get Huaihua out of slavery. In this way, she can marry Zhao Shuangcheng. ”
"You can really ......"
At this time, the carriage stopped, and the voice of the servant came from outside: "My lord, it's here." ”
"I can." Sister Hua said, "You believe me. ”
I opened my eyes and just saw Fu Qiao looking at Sister Hua, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she nodded.
The servant lifted the curtain of the carriage from the outside, stretched out his hand and waited there.
Sister Hua helped the little girl get out of the carriage, drove the little girl aside, and stretched out her hand to Fu Qiao. This time, Fu Qiao did not refuse him, and helped him up with a smile.
Fu Qiao got out of the car, and Sister Hua was stupidly happy to stay by her side, with no intention of helping me down at all.
Looking at the two of them, I shook my head secretly. Two fickle people! Obviously I was still making trouble when I went out, but now it's as if nothing had happened.
The little guy stepped forward to help me out of the carriage, and I smiled at him, "Thank you." ”
The little girl's face turned red, and he lowered his head and retreated.
After getting out of the carriage, I looked up and found that the plaque only had the word "Li Fu" written on it, so it turned out that it was not necessary to write the position on it. That big sister flower is really in love.
The door with a brass bolt opened from the inside, and a man dressed like a butler greeted him.
"Young Master Cousin."
"Hmm." Sister Hua agreed, looking at him, "What about my uncle?" ”
"The master is working in the study. The little ones will send someone to call. The man stood respectfully to the side.
"Hmm." Sister Hua glanced at Fu Qiao beside her, "Tell my uncle that I brought a guest." ”
"Yes." The man lowered his head, "You go to the front hall and sit down for a while." ”
"Got it." Sister Hua smiled and walked forward, and said to the man, "Go get busy." You don't need to serve here. ”
The man didn't say anything and stepped back.
"Sister, please." Sister Hua said to Fu Qiao with a smile.
Fu Qiao smiled, and Sister Hua led him to the courtyard.
The people standing next to me looked at Sister Hua in surprise, but they didn't dare to say anything, and looked at me, who was not paying attention, and seemed to be a little confused for a while.
I smiled at them, bowed my head and followed behind Sister Hua and Fu Qiao. Secretly thinking that these two people are not authentic. No matter how good you are, you can't leave me here.
The Li Mansion is much larger than Sister Hua's house, but the use inside is not as luxurious as Sister Hua's house, which makes people look much more comfortable. After walking for a while, we finally reached the antechamber. I finally don't have to be happy with the people passing by, I live like a fool.
The front hall of the Li Mansion is furnished with furniture made of mahogany with simple patterns carved into it. There is a landscape painting painted on the screen next to it, I don't understand it, but I think it's quite elegant.
Because Sister Hua only circled around Fuqiao, I sat aside by myself.
The servant brought three cups of tea and respectfully put one on my side. I picked up the teacup and took a sip, it was very fragrant, not much worse than what I drank when I was in the Yuelao Mansion.
After waiting for a while, a middle-aged man in a dark blue robe with a beard entered the front hall, followed by the same man who had greeted us earlier. The middle-aged man looks magnificent, and he should be Fu Yin.
"Uncle." Sister Hua finally stopped caring about Fu Qiao and greeted her.
Looks like I guessed correctly. He's really Fu Yin.
I hurriedly got up from my chair and saluted with Fu Qiao: "Master Li." ”
Fu Yin smiled at us and nodded.
"Just now Li De said that you brought a guest, presumably these two are the same." Fu Yin looked at Sister Hua.
Sister Hua replied with a smile: "Exactly." These two are two sisters from Ping Zeyue's family. "Sister Hua introduced us to Fu Yin, "This is my sister Yueqiao, and this is my sister, Yuesi." ”
"The Moon Family?" Fu Yin looked puzzled.
The corners of Fu Qiao's mouth curled slightly, and he smiled quietly: "Our family is just a small family in Pingze, and it is normal that adults have not heard of it." ”
"My sister is humble." Sister Hua hurriedly waved her hand and looked at Fu Yin, "The two younger sisters are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." ”
The corner of my eye twitched. When did we say that to him?
I've never been good at these things. Not to mention piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, even I can't memorize the mantra smoothly. That is, Fu Qiao has also read some poems and seen some calligraphy and paintings, but he is not very proficient. He said this, what if Fu Yin is interested and let me and Fu Qiao perform one or two?
"I only know a little bit about it, but I can't be proficient." Fuqiao's calm explanation.
But how do I think that the more she says this, the more it looks like we are being humble!
Don't say any more!
I silently prayed that Sister Hua and Fu Qiao would shut up.
The confusion on Fu Yin's face disappeared slightly, and he made a gesture of "please" to us: "Don't stand, sit down." ”
Fu Qiao smiled politely and politely at Fu Yin and sat aside, and I hurriedly sat down.
"I don't know how the two of you met with Zhong Qi, and why did you come to my house?"
Fu Yin looked at me and Fu Qiao.
I sat there obediently, determined not to speak. Anyway, there is a coincidence here, and she will make up her own mind about what to say.
Sometimes, though, it doesn't seem like there's a need to speak. Sister Hua next to her had already taken the initiative to treat herself as a skillful mouth and answer questions for her.
"I met two younger sisters on the street." Sister Hua's face was full of excitement, "The two sisters said that they admired their uncle, and they came to Youyang because they were shocked by your honesty and integrity." When I saw that my two younger sisters were unaccompanied, I invited them to live at home, and I also took them to meet my uncle by the way. ”
"Oh?" Fu Yin listened to it with amusement and asked us with great interest, "My name has spread to the north?" ”
Fu Qiao smiled and nodded: "The reputation of the adult is known to everyone in our place. It is said that you are selfless and fair in handling cases. ”
Nafu Yin is obviously also a lord who likes to listen to good words. Fu Qiao's boast, his face was no longer serious, and he smiled beautifully.
"Lide. Why hasn't Childe come yet? When there are guests at home, they don't come out to meet, when did it become so unruly. Fu Yin looked at the butler standing on the side.
The housekeeper who was called Li De lowered his head slightly: "I have already sent someone to call." ”
"Uncle, don't worry." Sister Hua hurriedly said, "Cousin Xu was stumped by something, and he should be here in a while." ”
"What could he do!" Fu Yin's face was a little unhappy, "I hide in my room every day and don't want to come out." ”
I looked at Fu Qiao, and she happened to be looking at me.
The son that Fu Yin said, the cousin in Sister Hua's mouth, isn't it Li Wenhao?
Listening to the meaning of his words, this Li Wenhao is still sad about the marriage contract nine times out of ten. Otherwise, how could they hide and not see anyone all day long?
"Don't wait for someone else to call you." Fu Yin said to Li De, "You go and call directly, if he doesn't come out to meet the guests, you will stay in his courtyard, and you don't have to come out to be on duty again." ”
Li De shook a little, hurriedly moved, and went out.
I frowned. This Fu Yin seems to be much more powerful than it seems! Looking at his family, everyone is afraid of his tightness.
And he doesn't seem to be very easy to talk like this, so it is even more impossible for him to divorce Li Wenhao.
After a while, Li De reappeared in the antechamber, followed by a man.
The man stood in the center of the front hall, and bowed to Fu Yin: "Dad." "Turning to Sister Hua again," Cousin. ”
Fu Yin looked at him and frowned, as if he felt that he was very angry: "These two are coming with your cousin, hurry up and salute." ”
The man's eyebrows were lowered, and he didn't look at me and Fu Qiao at all, but turned around and said, "Two sisters." ”
The man didn't wait for me to return the salute with Fu Qiao, nor did he wait for Fu Yin to speak, so he walked to the side and sat down.
Fu Qiao and I had already gotten up, but looking at him like that made us both a little embarrassed.
