"At that time, the shopkeeper Cao was about to help me find a girl, but there was a big incident in the wing room on the other side!" When Hongdou said this, his face was faintly nervous,

Then the whole place became more and more chaotic, and I didn't know what to do, but the shopkeeper Jia told me not to worry, saying that since Ah Sheng was gone, it must be with the girl, and maybe I would go back first. So we decided to wait a little longer, and if we didn't see the girl yet, we'd go back. But I didn't know that I didn't wait long, and the courtyard of the Moon Tower watched all the doors, and didn't let people out, and then the shopkeeper Cao came over and said that the girl and Ah Sheng had to be found out... …·· It's just that fortunately, after a while, Li Yue'er came over and told Shopkeeper Cao that she had just seen the girl go back. He also said that it was probably because the girl didn't want to change their sisters' clothes, and she was angry, so she left early, even me. ”

Chapter 210: Go Home

Chapter 210: Go Home

After Mo Li got out of the carriage, he didn't go in, but just stood at the door and said, then he went down the steps and stood by the carriage and waited.

Han Sidao hid in the shadow of the alley, poked his face out slightly, and looked at the slim figure at the gate of the Mo Mansion. It's just that Mo Li put on the hat behind the cloak as soon as he got out of the car, covering up the jade hibiscus-like face.

Han Sidao only glanced twice, retracted his head, leaned against the wall, and gasped for breath. His arm hurt like fire, and the sprain at his ankle tore at his nerves, and when he was relieved, he untied his belt, gritted his teeth, and tied the wound twice. Then he took two more breaths, then poked his face out and looked towards the gate of Mofu.

It's just that when he looked at it, he found that the man who was still sitting in the car seat just now was already standing next to Mo Li at this time. A gust of night breeze blew, and the glass lantern at the door of Mofu shook left and right a few times, and the brilliant lights overlapped the figures of the two people. The hustle and bustle of the mansion has been cut off by the vermilion gate and the high walled courtyard, and beside the silent building, on the quiet street, the figures of the two stations standing quietly together, under the reflection of the lamps and the moonlight, seem to be unexpectedly harmonious and indescribably distant.

Once, she was the person he was almost within reach, but the world was unpredictable, and some accidents happened under the circumstances that he didn't want to see.

But those accidents never affected the determination in his heart, but strengthened his determination.

Once, he thought he was just obsessed with that face, but later he learned that it was far from it. These days, he has seen clearly that this girl, the girl who is becoming more and more attracted to him, has a heart as fierce as him, obviously looking at such a weak person, obviously in such a disadvantaged situation, but can make a way in the business field of avoiding tigers and wolves.

And many times, the methods she uses look similar to him.

Han Sidao leaned against the wall, looked ahead, and smiled silently, they were actually a natural pair.

It was only after this moment of flashing that he looked over again, only to find that the two people in front of him seemed to be communicating something in a low voice all along, and occasionally Mo Li lowered his face slightly. Although he couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, that action gave him an illusion of shyness.

Han Sidao was stunned, and suddenly thought about the scene he saw that night in Anxian County in the first spring, he just frowned, but then he saw Mo Li raise his face and say something to the man next to her. Han Sidao couldn't hear the communication between them, he saw that the man with his back to him nodded slightly, and then raised his hand and helped Mo Li pull the hat that was about to slip off, it was just a very small movement, and because of the angle, it should be only he who could see it.

However, it is such a seemingly casual action, but it reveals an indescribable intimacy, and a man's silent possession.

Han Sidao's pupils shrank, and the pain in his arms and feet reminded him of his current situation. He leaned motionless against the gloomy corner, staring coldly at the bright lights ahead. There was no reason why no one else would take a fancy to him, and he had expected this to happen when the girl came out of the boudoir and took the first step to threaten to take over his father's inheritance.

After a while, a woman from Mofu led the two little girls out of it, and then Mo Li stepped forward to take the hand of one of the little girls, and said something to the woman, only to see that after the woman nodded, Mo Li led the two little girls into the car.

Ah Sheng lowered the curtain of the car, jumped into the car, turned his head, and glanced at the alley not far from the street.

Suddenly, he looked at the other party and turned his face to his side, and he looked like that, obviously looking at it on purpose. At that moment, Han Sidao even felt Ah Sheng's gaze fall directly on his face, and he was suddenly startled and shrank back. It's obvious that he is in the dark, the other party is in the light, and the distance is a little far, so it stands to reason that the other party should not be able to see him. But just now, he obviously felt like he was being targeted, and that feeling was more like being targeted by a beast.

The sound of wheels crashing on the ground sounded, Han Sidao gritted his teeth, dragged his feet, and walked deeper into the alley.

When Ah Sheng drove past the mouth of the alley, he turned his head and glanced at it thoughtfully, and then flicked his horsewhip to speed up the car.

And Mo Li just picked up Mo Xue not long ago, and Master Mo received the news that his son was fighting with someone for a sister in Wangyue Tower, and he actually beat the other party unconscious! When he first heard about this, Master Mo was just shocked; It's just that when he heard that the man who was seriously injured by his son was actually Ding Xiangnan's son, he suddenly got up from his chair; And then I heard that tonight, there was a homicide in the Moon Tower, and the death was a court official who had just been sent from Beijing, and now the people in the Moon Tower were all detained, and the troublemakers were taken away directly, and they might be named murderers····· Master Mo's face turned white suddenly, and then he suddenly sat down on the chair.

"Old man······" After the steward finished speaking, he looked at Master Mo with a hesitant expression, waiting for him to show him. At this time, Ding Xiangnan must have also received the news, and I am afraid that it will not be long before the people of the Ding family will come to the door. However, if this is okay tonight, as long as no one is killed, then there is room for talk. But at that moment, a court official died, and the government acted so quickly that it had already taken people away. In this way, the situation suddenly becomes complicated, and if someone really frames someone to blame it, or if the Ding family takes the opportunity to secretly make it bad, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Old lady, have you slept?" After a long time, Master Mo asked in a dumb voice.

"I guess I haven't slept yet." The steward was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "You want to tell the old lady about this?" ”

"That son of a!" Master Mo gritted his teeth and said four words, then stood up with the handrail, walked out of the room, and rushed to the third old lady.

After Mo Li returned home, Hongdou and Jia Hei had not returned. She stood at the door and waited for a while, the uneasiness in her heart slowly expanded, Mo Xue gently pulled Mo Li's clothes, and said carefully; "Sister go back first#, it's going to be cold, Sister Hongdou knows the way."

Just after being in the carriage, Mo Li explained to Mo Xue that she accidentally fell into the lake in the Moon Tower, so she changed her clothes and came back early, but Hongdou was not by her side at the time, so she didn't come back with her.

Mo Li suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, sighed, and lowered his eyes to Mo Xuedao; "If grandma asks you in a while, don't tell your sister about it, lest they worry about it, do you know, the four girls are also happy, and they all remember it."

Mo Xue and Si Niu both nodded, just now in the carriage, Mo Li had already told them several times.

Mo Li glanced at Siniu, and asked her to go to the second gate first and wait, and then said to Mo Xue uneasily; "And in the future, no matter who asks you about tonight, you just say that your sister can't worry about you, so I came to pick you up early, and you don't have to say anything else."

"Hmm." Mo Xue nodded again, just thought about it, then glanced at Ah Sheng, who was driving the carriage in, and then asked in a low voice, "After Sister Ji fell into the water, did Ah Sheng save my sister?" ”

Mo Li was leading Mo Xue to walk in, and when he heard this sentence coldly, his mind suddenly jumped out of the scene that happened on the bank of the river. She held Mo Xue's hand stiffly, her footsteps stagnated, and after a while, she hummed softly, but followed and said; "Don't mention it, and don't talk about it in the future."

"Why?" Mo Xue was puzzled, "If he saved his sister, then my sister should thank him well, Siniu saved me before, didn't my sister also tell me to treat Siniu well." ”

Mo Xue looked at her sister's innocent eyes, and said embarrassedly for a while; “······ I'll thank him, don't ask again, remember what I just told you. ”

"Remembered."

Mo Li glanced at Mo Xue, sighed and was about to walk to the backyard at this time, so she pulled Mo Xue to stand and said with a serious face; "What Sister Xue'er just said is very important, you need to keep it in your heart."

"I remember!" Mo Xue nodded heavily.

Mo Li sighed in her heart, touched Mo Xue's head, and then said; "Just remember, go #, go to grandma and mother's to have a look, say you're back, sister will come over later."

It's just that when Mo Xue responded to the call and went to Mrs. Mo, and the four girls were about to follow, Mo Li called her to stop her and brought her to her side. After entering the east chamber, seeing that the two little maids were guarding the lights and tea, Mo Li asked them to prepare hot water for bathing for herself, and after sending them out, she sat down on a chair and looked at the four girls.

Mo Xue is her own sister, she trusts her the most, and she has always been what she says. But the four chicks ······ This girl is now nine years old, and she may not believe all the words she coaxed Mo Xue just now. Even if she fell into the water and changed her clothes, but the fact that she was separated from Hongdou is a bit far-fetched. It's not that she's afraid that Siniu will know anything, she's just worried that if someone comes to ask in the future, how can this girl accidentally say that she leaked her mouth. Besides, Xue'er will go back in a while, and when she whispers to the four girls, she may mention this matter, the two little girls are not sensible, in case they are talking and they find that something is wrong, it is even worse.

In fact, she didn't go over to pick up Xue'er just now, and things might be simpler, but when she thought about Mo Xing's troubles in Mochiyue Tower, and Mo Xue was on Master Mo's side, not to mention, the shopkeeper in Mochiyue Tower knew that she was in Mochizuki Tower at the time. During this period, all kinds of relationships were involved, so that she couldn't rest assured that Mo Xue wouldn't be able to take Mo Xue back, if she didn't take Mo Xue back at that time, it wouldn't take long, and Master Mo would definitely know what was going on over there in Mochizuki Tower... …··

Returning to her senses in a trance, seeing that Si Niu was standing in front of her looking at her with an uneasy expression, Mo Li sighed in her heart, but her face was solemn; "Tonight's incident, how I explained to Xue'er just now, you have to keep it in mind."

The four girls nodded earnestly; "The eldest girl is just relieved that the second girl is not relieved tonight, so I came to pick up the second girl in advance."

Mo Li was slightly stunned, but she didn't expect that the little girl's mind was unexpectedly clear. She smiled slightly, stood up, and gently patted Siniu's shoulder and said; "That's right, go #, go to Xue'er's side, if you don't make a detour, she will have to find it later."

Soon after the four girls left, the two maids came back and said that the hot water had been prepared in the bath. Mo Li asked them to take their clothes to the bathroom first, and then went out of the house alone, looking in the direction of the front yard.

Just when she was waiting more and more anxiously, and planned to let Ah Sheng find someone, Hongdou finally returned.

"I was over there just now, and I didn't find the girl when I came back, so I'm really worried." In the steaming bathtub, Hongdou untied Mo Li's hair, and said while pouring hot water, "Bi Ah Sheng is gone, I can't find it anywhere, I only have to ask people everywhere, and at that time, the shopkeeper also sent clothes to me, so he also knew that the girl was missing." ”

"What happened?" Mo Li's face was a little solemn.

"At that time, the shopkeeper Cao was about to help me find a girl, but there was a big incident in the wing room on the other side!" When Hongdou said this, his face faintly showed a little nervousness, "Then the whole place became more and more chaotic, and I didn't know what to do, but the shopkeeper Jia told me not to worry, saying that since Ah Sheng is gone, it must be with the girl, maybe I will go back first." So we decided to wait a little longer, and if we didn't see the girl yet, we'd go back. But I didn't know that I didn't wait long, and the courtyard of the Moon Tower watched all the doors, and didn't let people out, and then the shopkeeper Cao came over and said that the girl and Ah Sheng had to be found out... …·· It's just that fortunately, after a while, Li Yue'er came over and told Shopkeeper Cao that she had just seen the girl go back. He also said that it was probably because the girl didn't want to change their sisters' clothes, and she was angry, so she left early, even me. ”

"Then Shopkeeper Cao believes it?" Mo Li asked.

Hongdou thought about it and said; "I seem to believe it, anyway, I really couldn't find the girl at that time, and when I went out to see, the girl's carriage was not there, so I let Jia Hei and I leave."

"Then before you left, how was Mo Xing's side? ,, "Taken away by officers and soldiers." Hongdou said with a little uneasiness on his face, "Before I and Shopkeeper Jia left, there were already a lot of officers and soldiers here, and then Young Master Xing was taken away by several officers and soldiers, girl, at that time, Cao Zhangjin seemed to want to ask me something, but in the end he didn't say, let us go." ”

That night, Mo Li lay in bed, sometimes thinking about what happened in the backyard of Mochizuki Tower, and sometimes thinking about the scene on the bank of the river, until it was about to dawn, and he couldn't really sleep.

And just when the sky was gray, someone was outside knocking on the door of Yunshang Pavilion.

"Girl, the people from Master Mo's side are looking for the girl." Mo Li opened his eyes helplessly, pressed the swollen eyebrows, and Hongdou walked in and said. She was slightly stunned, then sat up from the bed without saying anything.
