Chapter 188: Mention
Here, Qiu Ju heard Zhang's scolding like this, and felt that she was quite aggrieved.
That day, she knew that Grandpa Guo was bathing, so she took the clothes from the little maid and sent them in, and Grandpa Guo was half soaked in the bathtub, his wet hair was scattered on his handsome face, and the water droplets flowed down the ends of his hair.
Her face was red, she took her clothes down to the front, picked up the bath towel and was about to wipe her body for Grandpa Guo. But before the bath towel touched his body, she only heard the sound of shabu bumping, and before she could figure out what was going on, she found herself splashed with water, and fell out of the house like a dog.
That night, she and the other three maids were all transferred to the eldest son's room.
But how could Madame let them serve their son, and within a few days, all four of them were asked to return by Madame. She was lucky, Lao Tzu Niang was Madame's companion, so she could stay with Madame and wait, and the other three were all sold.
Over the years, Grandpa Guo has never had a woman by his side, and she is quite unwilling to think about it.
Seeing Qiu Ju in front of her, Zhang's face drooped and looked aggrieved, and he was angry, and said in a deep voice: "If you dare to spread this matter today, it will ruin the reputation of Grandpa Guo, see that I don't break your legs." He waved his hand to let Qiu Ju retreat.
Mama Zhou heard Zhang's loud reprimand, so she persuaded her to be quieter: "After all, we still live in other people's mansions, if this matter is known, and no matter what happens to the girls in Su Mansion, but Grandpa Guo has been raised by your side since childhood, can you still have a face?" Besides, this matter is going to make a big fuss, and in order to protect its reputation, the Su Mansion will definitely force the grandfather of the country to marry. ”
It's not impossible!
Zhang was silent.
Mama Huang said again: "Grandpa Guo's side, if you ask him a few words before returning to Beijing, it can be regarded as doing your duty." ”
Zhang snorted coldly: "My nephew has a big idea, if he really likes someone, I'm just afraid that he won't be able to stop him." Li Lie respected her on the face and acted according to his own ideas behind his back.
Mama Huang saw that Zhang was angry again, so she asked tentatively: "Do you want to ......?"
Mama Huang didn't say what she said later, but Zhang knew what she meant.
Do you want to fulfill Li Lie and Su Jinnian?
How is this possible!
An undisguised sneer flashed in Zhang's eyes.
Now, rumors of Li Lieke's wife have finally spread in Beijing and Yangzhou City, and the noble family is naturally unwilling to take the risk of marrying her daughter to Li Lie, and she also takes this opportunity to find a lowly concubine for her good nephew, and she will not lose the reputation of treating her nephew harshly.
Su Jinnian's excellent appearance alone is more than enough for Li Lie. No matter how many pickled things are in the back of Su Mansion, but outsiders see that Su Jinnian is a real lady from a famous family, and her father and brother have a bright future, these can become Li Lieshi's help in the future!
She would never allow that to happen.
In that year, Li Lie's father died of illness, and the old British duchess was worried that her eldest brother Ning Yuanhou would be her brother-in-law, the second lord of the Guogong Mansion, to ask for a decree to attack the knighthood, and the son had not been buried, so he entered the palace to meet the queen according to the big clothes, and invited a few old friends, and handed over the letter of invitation to pass the title of British duke to Li Lie in the last dynasty.
She was a step too late, and she confessed. Dream life
Over the years, she has done her best to take care of the British Mansion smoothly, and she also begged her eldest brother, who is Ning Yuanhou, to send her eldest son Li Jing to the Gyeonggi camp, hoping that Li Jing will make military merits one day, and then ask the eldest brother to ask the emperor to change the title of the British Mansion.
Why should she make wedding dresses for others with all these efforts?
But now Li Jing has not made an inch, but Li Lie has won the sacred heart because of the Southwest Rebellion, and there is a faint tendency to make a difference.
If she marries Su Fu again, her son will not be crushed to death by Li Lie, and there will never be a day?!
When Zhang thought of this, his face turned cold: "Since ancient times, the orders of parents and the words of the media, what can not be fulfilled?" Thinking in his heart, when he returned to Beijing, he would immediately help Li Lie set up a family affair.
Mama Huang knew Zhang's plan, so after two days, she recovered from her illness, so she went to the salt transportation envoy on behalf of Zhang.
Li Lie came to greet Zhang the next morning, he wore a satin robe with dark silver threads, and stood in front of Zhang with an expressionless face and talked to Zhang: "My aunt is returning to Beijing this time, and my nephew can't accompany her, so I hope my aunt will take care of herself." ”
Zhang pointed to the circle chair next to him for Li Lie to sit down, and then instructed Qiu Ju to give him a Lu'an melon slice, and then said: "You are busy with official business, don't worry about my affairs, it is only right to do a good job of the errand handed over to you by the saint." ”
Li Lie was silent with a snort.
Zhang was not surprised by his taciturn temperament, she sighed and said to Li Lie: "It is said that Miss Yang has only been there for a long time, I shouldn't have mentioned this matter now, but you now have the imperial order, and I don't know how long you will stay in Yangzhou. There are still rumors about your wife in the capital, and I don't think Yong'an Hou can talk to the concubine of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, so I have to go to the lower portal to find it. I'll take a look at it first, and I can officially settle it when you return to Beijing. ”
When Li Lie heard this, his narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he said coldly after a while: "This matter is not in a hurry, it will be another year or two." "He's so busy right now that he doesn't even have the heart to think about it.
Zhang's forehead jumped, he is twenty-one years old this year, and people who don't know still think how harsh she is, and she doesn't even help her daughter-in-law marry her nephew!
She smiled: "Then wait until you go back to Beijing?!" But she secretly thought in her heart, anyway, she could be regarded as having greeted Li Lie like this, and when she returned to the capital, she just had to look for a candidate.
Last year, she set Yang Ru and didn't talk to Li Lie in advance. Li Lie didn't say anything after he learned about it after he came back from the southwest, he didn't ask a word about Yang Ru, what she said, he just responded with a hum, and he didn't even look at the dowry list.
Now, according to Li Lie's reputation, it would be good to be able to marry the daughter of a five- or six-grade Beijing official, and she could be blamed for not being able to do it first?
Hearing Zhang's talk about going back to Beijing to discuss again, Li Lie quickly replied: "Okay." ”
Zhang's smile was even gentler: "Since you said that you will discuss it in a year or two, then you need to be cautious in your words and deeds when you run an errand in Yangzhou, and don't provoke those irrelevant ones, so as not to ruin the reputation of yourself and the girl's family." ”
Provoke the girl's house? Li Lie speculated what Zhang's words meant, after he came to Yangzhou, there was only one girl who spoke alone, Su Jinnian, how did Zhang's know?
While thinking about it, the phoenix eyes slightly raised and swept towards Qiu Ju who was standing aside, but saw that Qiu Ju was lowering her head and clutching the corners of her clothes.
Li Lie thought of the Sufu singing that day, and when he came out, he saw Qiu Ju standing outside the flower hall.
Li Lie's face instantly turned cold, and he stood up in vain and said goodbye to Zhang: "I'm busy with official business, I'll go back to the Salt Transport Embassy first." "I didn't say anything superfluous.
