Chapter 34: Cumulus (4)
In the afternoon, Brother Xu Ying woke up from a nap, thinking that it was time for Xu Fu's jewelry shop to have a new style, so he ordered Qingyu to take charcoal and paper, and sat under the window to draw carefully. Qingyu carefully placed a cup of tea in her hand and quietly withdrew.
Zi Hao was directing the bells in the yard to pick off all the remaining cherries, and when she turned around, she saw Qingyu leaning against the door and looking weak, so she ordered the bells and a few of them to be busy, and walked over and gently bumped Qingyu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hey, what are you doing?" β
Qingyu was taken aback, and when she saw that it was her, Fang squeezed out a smile and said angrily: "It's good, what do you do to scare people?" β
Zi Aiqi said: "Who scared you?" I came from there, but you didn't see me? Looking at Qingyu again, I saw that there was a green shadow under her eyes, a tired face, and she couldn't help but care: "Could it be that you went out with the second lady yesterday and were tired?" Do you want to talk to the second lady, let you take a half-day off and take a break? β
Qingyu shook her head suddenly: "No need! I'm taking some leave! β
Zi Hao said: "Don't hold on, the second lady is not an inconsiderate master." I see that your face is really not good, I don't believe it, you ask the bells. So saying, he called the bell.
Qingyu glanced at Brother Xu Ying, who was concentrating on drawing in the room, and said softly: "Don't! I just didn't sleep well. If you really love me, you will go to the night for me tonight, so that I can sleep well. β
The relationship between the two of them is very good, and Zi Haze will not refuse: "That's okay." After a moment of silence, he looked around and said in a low voice, "What happened yesterday?" β
Qingyu Zhengse said: "I don't know, you don't want to ask around." β
Everyone knows the wrist of the Yao family, Zi Hao stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm just a mouthful." I went back to work. β
Yesterday's events, is it really the villain's fault? Qingyu looked up at the blue sky, thinking of the nightmare that she had spent most of the night last night, as if she had seen it herself, and then thinking about the selfishness that she had inadvertently known over the years, a little cold, and slowly spread to her whole body along the blood from the heart of her feet.
Three days later, when the main courtyard of the Bachelor's Mansion went up, Wu Jin personally sent a bag of clothes to Xu Heng and Yao, and said in a deep voice: "The little son-in-law is incompetent, and he can't find out about this matter. β
The girls and mothers-in-law present at that time were all credible, and after a strict investigation for the past few days, no useful information was found, and everyone was sure that it was a sudden fire, and nothing unusual was found. He is a man who has led soldiers, and he has not seen the burning of the enemy camp, but he must also have an introduction, such as rockets, or fire oil, and there will always be some clues. Unfortunately, he couldn't find any trace of them other than the two loose tiles. And those two loose tiles, who can say clearly, when and how they were loosened?
Yao's face changed slightly, but he couldn't say a word in front of his son-in-law.
Wu Jin saw the changes in Yao's eyes for a moment, and said carefully: "The words of ghosts and gods, the little son-in-law never believes it. Please also ask your father-in-law to think about it carefully, did you offend any villain? β
"The son is silent, and the power is strange to the god!" Xu Heng got up, paced with his back hand and thought for a long time, not answering whether Wu Jin had offended anyone, but asked Xu Zhi, who was standing quietly on the side: "You like to read miscellaneous books on weekdays, do you know if there is anything that can ignite objects without knowing it, but leave no traces?" β
Xu Zhi frowned: "My son is also thinking about this matter these days, but ......"
Xu Heng fell silent, and the atmosphere in the room was a little silent for a while. Wu Jin saw
Xu Shan, the chief housekeeper of the Xu Mansion, showed his head outside, as if he had something to do, so he got up and said goodbye, saying that he had something to do, and he would come back another day if he had an eyebrow.
Xu Heng then instructed Xu Zhi to send him out, turned his head and asked Xu Shan, "What's the matter?" β
Xu Shan came in and saluted, and replied, "Master, the fifth master asks to see you." β
These five masters will not be outsiders, but Xu Fu, who has never been to the door since Xiangji Temple. When he came at this time, maybe he heard some rumors, Xu Heng was looking for him, so he went outside immediately.
Yao Shi rubbed his forehead a little tiredly, Fu Shi came in from outside with a box with the girl Susu, and when he saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to help her pinch her shoulders and persuaded: "Mother-in-law has not slept well these days, do you want to ask the imperial doctor to prescribe a pair of medicine for recuperation?" β
Yao shook his head: "It's all right after these two days." When he saw the box Su Su was holding, he asked, "What is this?" β
Fu Shi hurriedly handed over the box: "It's the third aunt's mother's family who came, saying that she got a good piece of He Shou Wu and made up for her mother-in-law." β
Yao remembered what the Mao clan had done in the General's Mansion a few days ago, and he was very unhappy, and said lightly: "Who is here?" Why don't you come in and speak? β
Fu Shi smiled: "It's Goro's eldest aunt who came, and the eldest aunt was here at that time, so my daughter-in-law had to ask her to sit for a while." The third aunt sent this box first. β
Mao's sister-in-law Jiang is a loyal woman, Yao's has always been courteous, I heard that it was her, and her expression eased slightly: "Then invite her over, you carefully pick and choose the return gift, don't want those flashy, choose some decent." "Thinking about it again, the Mao family sent this gift first, and she was a little disdainful, could it be that she didn't invite the Jiang family in time here, because she was too poor to be poor? But even if it is, what about gifting? Isn't the impostor's house broken?
After a while, Jiang brought a little girl who had just left her head, accompanied by Mao. Yao got up and greeted him with a smile, and heard that the little girl was the youngest daughter of the Wu family, so he had to solemnly give a meeting gift, and let him go down to play with the children, and leave their mother and daughter to eat. Jiang refused tactfully, and the mother and daughter sat down slightly, and left after fulfilling the courtesy of the guests.
Mao personally sent her sister-in-law and niece out, and Yao asked Mama Su: "Do you know why the aunt of the Mao family came?" "The Mao family has long been defeated, life is not good, although I don't like the Mao family, in the end I still have to appease her and Xu Lai to live a good life, if her mother's family is really in trouble, she should help her.
Mama Su shook her head: "The old slave doesn't know, but the appearance of the aunt of the impostor family doesn't seem to be sad." β
Yao's was also thrown aside, but he didn't expect Onyx to shout outside the curtain: "The third lady is here." Then Mao Shi walked in and said with an angry face: "Sister-in-law, the Zhao family is too deceitful!" β
The Yao family was thinking about it, four days had passed since the Zhong family in the general's mansion said goodbye without saying goodbye, and the Zhao family should also have moved. At this time, hearing Mao's words, he had to invite her to sit and said, "What do you say?" β
Mao Shi sneered: "My sister-in-law came here, not for the side, but to be entrusted by others to inquire about Zhao Si's conduct for others!" This Zhao family, going back on their word, what do they think of our bachelor's mansion? "It turns out that the Zhong family has sent someone to inquire about Ruan Zhuniang, the daughter of the soldier of the Ministry of War, this Ruan Zhuniang's mother is related to the Jiang family, thinking that Zhao Huang is Xu Heng's protΓ©gΓ©, and he often goes in and out of Xu's mansion, if you want to know how his conduct is, it is best not to ask here. Therefore, he asked Jiang to come over and ask his sister-in-law for news.
Mao Shi said while looking at Yao's expression, seeing that Yao's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, which was indescribably ugly, his heart was a lot more comfortable, but there was a look of indignation on his face: "I really didn't expect Zhao Si to be such an ungrateful thing!" I really misjudged him in the past! Poor Brother Sakura......"
A layer of anger appeared on Yao's face, and he interrupted her sharply: "Third brother and sister speak carefully! He is just a student of your uncle, and he is free to marry, so why is he ungrateful? What does it have to do with Brother Sakura? As an aunt, you should also cherish your niece's reputation, so that she respects you and cherishes Gorou on weekdays. β
Of course, he and Brother Xu Ying have no grudges, they just want to see this sister-in-law who is used to acting alone sad. so that she knows that not everyone is as easy to bully as herself, and some people can show her face and make her angry. Mao sneered in his heart, but his face was respectful and aggrieved: "It's that I can't speak." But I'm just because I cherish Brother Ying, didn't their family mention it earlier......"
Yao was upset, he really didn't want to see her, so he turned his face sideways without waiting for her to finish. Fu Shi hurriedly stepped forward, found an excuse, and respectfully invited Mao Shi out.
The Mao family walked out of the main courtyard gate, said goodbye to the Fu family, stood on the road and thought about it, and then walked towards the Anya House where Brother Xu Ying lived.
Yao's drank half a cup of herbal tea before suppressing the evil fire in his heart, and instructed the girl Lu Fei: "You go outside and tell Xu Shan, don't leave after the fifth master and the master finish talking, I have something to explain to the fifth master." He called Mama Su again: "You go and inquire if it's true." β
Outer study.
Xu Fu listened to Xu Heng talk about the incident in the general's mansion that day, and his face was already green. Thinking of another thing, this heart can no longer calm down, thinking about it left and right, and finally said: "The little nephew still has something to tell his uncle." β
Xu Heng saw that he looked cautious, and he couldn't help but be a little cautious: "What's the matter?" β
Xu Fu got up and opened all the doors and windows of the study, and Fang walked back and said in a low voice: "A few days ago, the little nephew learned that someone was secretly sponsoring the Cui family, and he thought that he must know who is good and what the intentions are, so he asked someone to investigate. Four days ago, the people sent followed the man all the way to the annex of the General's Mansion, and then saw that the man had hidden in the servants who had been with him that day in King Kang's Mansion and entered King Kang's Mansion. β
"King Kang's Mansion?" I have never heard of any connection between the Cui family and King Kang's Mansion, that is, when the Cui family was in the limelight, King Kang's Mansion had no contact with the Cui family, and I heard that King Kang despised Cui Shun's personality very much. But in the royal family, there are too many secrets, and not all of them can be known. Xu Heng pondered for a long time and advised: "In recent days, you should be careful." "The inexplicably burning thousand-pleated skirt of the xiaxia yarn is more of a warning than a prank.
Xu Fu agreed, and brought some embarrassment: "Uncle, the little nephew wants to see Brother Ying." β
So many things have happened, where will Xu Heng prevent their brothers and sisters from meeting? Then he said, "See it." It just so happens that your aunt has something to tell you. β
