Chapter Ninety-Three: Tempting the Xu Family

Mingyue went down the mountain, and went straight to Liangshan Town, even if she had to pass through the gate of the Ming family, Mingyue tried to bypass it as far as possible, thinking that it would be a while to hide it.

Mingyue's current footsteps are not as good as before, almost half an hour, I arrived in Liangshan Town, and went to Liangshan Town so many times, the only place in this town that sells paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and Mingyue has an impression of the study, so I looked for it directly and went into the store.

The shopkeeper in the store was sitting behind the counter dozing off, and when he heard someone coming in, he raised his head and looked at the door, "What does the little lady need?" ”

Mingyue entered the door and observed the man standing up behind the counter, about fifty years old, with a scholarly bun, a long beard on his chin, a long beard that was already a little gray, a long face, wearing a white-washed blue robe, looking at himself with a smile.

Mingyue secretly scolded herself, like an old master, but responded with a smile on her face, "You are the boss of the study?" ”

The long-faced old master replied with a smile, "It's right down there." There was a strong bookish anger in his tone.

Listening to the boss, Mingyue handed over the letter written by Li Yun from her arms.

The long-faced old master first glanced at Mingyue, then took the letter in Mingyue's hand, looked at the cover, and asked, "But the letter from the Li family?" ”

Seeing Li Yun nodding, the long-faced old master handed the letter back to Mingyue, "You are Mrs. Li, please take this letter back to Mr. Li, my master is already on his way, he can arrive in a few days, and there is no need to send the letter." ”

"Coming here?" Mingyue muttered to herself, although Mingyue didn't know who the master of this long-faced old master was, but Mingyue could guess that every time Li Yun sent a letter, it should be sent to the master in this person's mouth.

Mingyue had no choice but to put away the letter and said, "Thank you." ”

The long-faced old master hurriedly returned the salute, "Madame doesn't have to be polite. And personally sent Mingyue out of the door of the study.

Since the letter was not sent, Mingyue went directly to Xu Yuanwai's house, and when she arrived at the door, she knocked on the door of Xu's house, and the person who opened the door warmly welcomed Mingyue into the door, and directly took Mingyue to the courtyard of the young master of the Xu family.

Although the purpose of explaining the moon was not to show the young master of the Xu family his legs, Mingyue didn't want to expose his purpose, so he directly followed his subordinates to the courtyard of the young master of the Xu family, and soon Mrs. Xu also got the news and rushed over, Mingyue had to show the young master of the Xu family his legs first, checked the recovery of his lower knee, asked about the recent exercises, and emphasized some matters that need attention.

After reading the legs of the young master of the Xu family, as expected, Xu Yuan sent someone to call Mingyue, saying that he had something to ask Mingyue to go to the study for a while.

Mrs. Xu asked the person a little strangely, "If the master wants to entertain Miss Ming in the living room of the front hall, why do you want to go to the study?" ”

The next man said, "The master said that he wanted to return the title deed of the Ming family to the Ming family, and let the little one take the Ming girl to the study." ”

Mrs. Xu listened to the words of the subordinate, and the old man finally figured it out, and no longer embarrassed the Ming family, so she nodded to the subordinate, and smiled at Mingyue again, "My master is a stubborn temper, don't be like him in the past, go." ”

Mingyue responded with a smile, and then followed the person to leave and went to the study.

The young master of the Xu family, who was in a wheelchair, looked at Mingyue's back and thought thoughtfully.

The Xu family took Mingyue to the door of the study, then stopped, and said to Mingyue, "My master is inside, girl, please come in." With that, he left.

Mingyue glanced at the person who left suspiciously, and then pushed open the door in front of her and entered.

Looking at the layout in the study, the atmosphere is elegant and elegant, Mingyue looked at the study and felt that it was really a little incompatible with Xu Yuanwai's round and oily appearance.

"Mrs. Li is here, please sit here."

Mingyue was looking east and west, and didn't notice Xu Yuanwai, who was sitting at the desk inside, listened to Xu Yuanwai's voice, and was stunned before she reacted, and Mrs. Li in Xu Yuanwai's mouth was talking about herself.

Mingyue passed unceremoniously, sat down on a chair at the bottom of the desk, and looked at Xu Yuanwai in front of him, "I don't know what Xu Yuanwai called me over?" ”

Xu Yuan asked with a smile outside, "I heard that Gongzi Li lived in Daliangshan with Mrs. Li?" ”

Mingyue replied with a smile, "Xu Yuanwai inquired very clearly, Xu Yuanwai cared about me and my father-in-law so warmly, which made Mingyue a little flattered." ”

Xu Yuanwai's face was full of smiles, "It should be, it should be." ”

Mingyue's originally smiling face suddenly sank and turned into a sneer, "What should this mean?" It was Xu Yuanwai who deliberately told the Li family about my father-in-law's life experience, and asked the Li family to sweep me and my father-in-law out of the house, feeling guilty, so is it the right thing to do? ”

Xu Yuanwai listened to Mingyue's words, changed his face and said with a serious face, "Mrs. Li, don't talk nonsense, Xu will not do such a thing." ”

Mingyue sneered and continued, "The news outside Xu Yuanwai is really well-informed, I and my father-in-law were dared to go out of the Li family's door by the Li family, and your Xu family's subordinates followed suit." ”

Xu Yuanwai hurriedly explained, "This is really a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, how can I know about Li Gongzi's life experience?" This was definitely not done by Xu, but I just happened to know it. Here's the thing, this Li shopkeeper's dry goods shop is newly opened, Xu has not known, that day I just heard the next person mention, I think I should go to see, so I let the next person bring a gift to the past, I never thought that I just heard that the old lady of the Li family was making trouble, to drive that, the wild seed out of the Li family, the next person came back to inform me, I thought I was afraid that it was related to Li Gongzi, so I quickly sent someone to go to Dalu Village. ”

Mingyue asked Li Yun before, Li Yun didn't know Xu Yuanwai, and today he just came to deceive this Xu Yuanwai, and after listening to Xu Yuanwai, Mingyue didn't be aggressive anymore, and asked, "Then why did Xu Yuanwai suddenly care so much about me and my father-in-law?" ”

Xu Yuanwai said, "This is also a letter from my brother who suddenly came from Yanjing some time ago, and was entrusted by my brother to take good care of Li Gongzi in Dalu Village." ”

Listening to Xu Yuanwai's words, Mingyue knew in her heart that her guess was really right, it was related to the Xu family's official, but I don't know what purpose this Xu family is an official? "My father-in-law doesn't know Xu Yuanwai's younger brother, why does this Xu Yuanwai's younger brother suddenly take care of my father-in-law?"

Xu Yuanwai shook his head, "I don't know about this, and my brother didn't say it in the letter." ”

It's time to ask, Mingyue got up and made a gesture to Xu Yuanwai, "It's me who misunderstood Xu Yuanwai, there was something wrong with what I said just now, and I asked Xu Yuanwai to cover it." ”

Xu Yuanwai stood up and waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay, it's Xu who didn't explain it clearly in time, so that Gongzi Li and Mrs. Li misunderstood, it's too dangerous on Daliang Mountain, why don't you two move to my Xu house for a while." ”

Mingyue responded with a smile, "No need, it's quiet on Daliang Mountain, and it's good to live, but there is really something to trouble Xu Yuanwai, can you borrow Xu Yuanwai's carriage?" ”

Xu Yuanwai replied, "This is no problem, I will tell the coachman to go with Mrs. Li in a while." ”

Seeing that Xu Yuanwai agreed, Mingyue got up and said, "Thank you Xu Yuanwai, I'll leave first." ”

Xu Yuanwai said, "It's not too late for Mrs. Li to leave after lunch." ”

Mingyue smiled, "My father-in-law is alone at home, and he still needs me to take care of him." ”

Listening to Mingyue's words, Xu Yuanwai couldn't stay anymore, so he personally sent Mingyue out of Xu's house, called a carriage driver, and left with Mingyue.

Mingyue asked Xu Yuanwai for a carriage, mainly because there were still a lot of guys missing at home, and he couldn't move back, so he borrowed the carriage of the Xu family by the way.

Tables, chairs and benches also need to buy a set, hoes, water tanks, bath buckets, cloth, etc., poor things, Mingyue can remember, all bought and loaded into the carriage, and then bought some vegetables, to be done almost, Mingyue got into the carriage, and sent the coachman to go down to Daliang Mountain.

Along the way, Mingyue counted the remaining silver on his body, and there were more than thirty taels, and sighed lightly, it seems that he has to find a way to make money again, although it shows that Yue does not have much pursuit of money, but he can't live without money.

When Mingyue went to the town, the foot was fast, and when she came back, there was a carriage, and there was not much time to delay in the town, and it was only noon when she arrived at the foot of Daliang Mountain.

Mingyue asked the coachman to help, and the two worked together to move the things they bought off the carriage and pile them up under a slightly hidden tree under Daliang Mountain, and then sent the coachman away, she didn't want anyone to know the location of the cave house on Daliang Mountain, so when the coachman said that he wanted to help move up the mountain, Mingyue refused.

Just looking at this pile of things, Mingyue sighed, I'm afraid it will take some effort.

After taking a slightly more valuable thing first, Mingyue carried it up the mountain first, and when she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, she saw Li Yun sitting in the shade in front of the cave house, holding a piece of wood in his hand and sharpening it with a sickle.

Seeing Mingyue's big bag and small bag coming back, Li Yun put down the wood and sickle in his hand, greeted him, and helped bring things in, the two worked together to put things in the house, Mingyue took a cotton towel and wiped the sweat on his face, before he said, "The letter was not sent, the owner of the study said that his master was already on the way, and it was about to arrive in the next few days. It's because Xu Yuanwai's younger brother should be an official in Yanjing, and it is unknown for what purpose. ”

Li Yun frowned when he heard Mingyue's words, "What is he doing here?" ”

Mingyue glanced at Li Yun, although she was curious about who "he" was, she didn't ask, but said, "I still have something under me that hasn't been brought up, I have to go down again." Then he left again and went down the mountain.

Li Yun watched Mingyue leave, there was a wheelchair on the flat ground and could help, and he wanted to go down the mountain to move things, but he wanted to help but was powerless.
