Chapter 16: Little Peach
"Hmph," Chunxiu looked unhappy, "Miss, don't pay attention to this person, she went to our yard to make trouble last night, and the ghost knows if she is sincere or came here to make trouble." ”
"Huh? Did you see her last night? Why didn't I hear from you? ”
It rained heavily last night, and Mu Sijun asked Chunxiu to send medicine to Baili Chengnuo, so that he wouldn't run again, in case it rained, it would be bad. When I came back, I heard the commotion outside the courtyard, so I took a look, this girl was noisy and had to see Mu Sijun, if it wasn't for the temporary addition of guards, otherwise she would have really let her break in, knowing that she was Zeng Qiaoniang's person, Chunxiu felt that she didn't give her one more kick, and it was already a conscience discovery.
"What is there to say, she aided and abused the abuse that day, and she deserves to be like this today."
Xiao Tao's anxious tears fell, and she shook her head desperately, "No, this sister, I was forced to do that day, Xiao Tao is just a subordinate, if I don't please Miss Zeng, I can't live this day, who knows that Zeng Qiaoniang is so ruthless, and when she sees that I am useless, she wants to sell me." I really have no choice but to come to Mrs. and say that Mrs. is kind-hearted, so you can have pity on me. ”
"Huh? Who told you that I have a good heart? Mu Sijun seemed to have heard a big joke.
"Besides, why should I pity you, your young lady is doing the right thing, you should lose it if you don't have use value, where did you come from, go back to where you came from."
After Mu Sijun finished speaking, he ordered Chunxiu to continue walking and hung Xiao Tao on the spot.
Xiao Tao was stunned, how could this lady be such a person, not only did she not have a little sympathy, but she was not happy to praise her for her kindness, it was really difficult to get along with. But she couldn't go back like this, so she walked a few steps on her knees, blocking the way of several people.
"Madam, although Xiao Tao can't do hard work when her hands are wasted, Xiao Tao still knows some things after staying in the house for a few years, I heard that Madame is going to take over the Hou Mansion, and she must need a familiar person to understand the situation, right, Xiao Tao is willing to know everything and do her best for Madame."
The matter of taking over the Hou Mansion really can't be talked about, Chunxiu and Qiansan looked cold.
Mu Sijun smiled, "Who told you that I want to take over the Hou Mansion?" ”
Xiao Tao seemed to know that she had said the wrong thing, but she could only hold on, "It's not Xiao Tao who said it blindly, after Mrs. Gao came out of the Hou Ye's yard yesterday, she had a big fire, and now the entire Hou Mansion has spread." If you don't believe me, you can ask someone else. ”
"I see, is Mrs. Gao really angry?"
"Xiao Tao didn't dare to tell half a lie, I heard that all the furnishings in Mrs. Gao's room were broken, and a few boxes of broken porcelain were brought out today."
Mu Sijun thought for a while, "Little Peach, what you said before has some truth, so let's go and wash yourself first, and then go to the gate of Nuoyuan to wait for me." ”
Xiao Tao was overjoyed when she heard this, and kowtowed to Mu Sijun a few times before leaving.
Chunxiu, "Miss, why are you listening to her, she looks like a liar, and she may have some bad idea." ”
Qian Thirteen also agreed, "Thirteen agrees with Miss Chunxiu's statement, and asks Mrs. to think twice." ”
Mu Sijun smiled, "Since you can all see it, why does she have to stay desperately?" There must be some plan. Since they want to play, wouldn't it be nice for us to play with them? Anyway, even if there are no peaches, there are some small flowers and grasses and the like. ”
Qian Thirteen thought for a moment, "Madame is planning to wait and see?" Or do you want to do what you want? ”
"I didn't think about anything, it was mainly up to them what they thought. It's boring anyway, so it's good to pass the time. ”
There are actually no good things in Shanjutang.
The old lady has been with the Buddha all the year round, and the house is filled with a strong sandalwood fragrance. Mu Sijun wrinkled her nose, she didn't respect Buddha, so she didn't like this taste very much. Thinking that if the old lady talked to her about Buddhism, she was really worried that she would not be able to talk together.
Fortunately, what the old lady said when she opened her mouth and closed her mouth was a promise.
The old lady really loved this grandson, and the house was full of clothes and some knick-knacks from his childhood. Speaking of those old events, the old lady is even more precious, and Mu Sijun is also interesting to listen to.
For example, when he was ten years old, he sneaked out of the school to play, and asked Miss Zeng to hide it for him, but when he came back, he was spanked by her mother.
For example, when he was eleven years old, he learned to ride a horse, because he thought that his horse master refused to change to a big one, so he secretly cut the tail of the horse, and when he was caught, he said that he wanted to use it as a brush, and he almost didn't make the master angry.
Another example is that when he was eighteen years old, he became famous in one fell swoop at the grand event in Kyoto, and was called the Kyoto Shuangjie with the daughter of the court's minister.
One by one, Mu Sijun seemed to have grown up with him again, and she realized that other people's childhood was so wonderful, not like her childhood, because there was no wheelchair at that time, so she had to stay in the house all day long, and there was no one to talk to.
The old lady grabbed Mu Sijun's hand and pulled it for a long time, but finally looked at her with a long sigh.
"Alas, when I first heard the news of his father's death in the army, I was about to give him a kiss, but who knew that he went to Quanzhou without saying a word, this time it has been so many years, and the first two years will come back to see my old wife on the New Year's Day, but in the next few years, there is no news at all. My wife, I'm not worried that he will collapse, I just envy that other people's families have great-grandchildren, and my wife is still alone. But now it's okay, I have hope when I see you. ”
The previous words sounded serious, but the latter words made Mu Sijun speechless for a while, dare you let me come here just to talk about this.
This old lady is really broad-hearted, as long as she is a granddaughter-in-law, she really doesn't pick at all. Mu Sijun thought about it, Baili Chengnuo was only sixty out of twenty, why did he rush the old lady to this point?
The old lady smiled, "Xiao Junjun, grandma, I will also tell you the bottom, don't look at this Hou Mansion is so big, in fact, our family is not a rich family, but it is just a promise that his father has a good life, and he will fight for a knighthood to come back, and the glory of the ancestors is naturally good, but when you enter this Kyoto, you have to talk about a rule in everything, but people are uncomfortable." If it weren't for the fact that I was too old to walk, I really wanted to go back to my hometown to see my old sisters and talk to them. So grandma, I don't look at what you were born in, as long as it is Chengnuo he really likes, grandma and I have no objection, the old woman just hopes that the two of you can live a good life and live a good life. ”
Such thoughtful words surprised Mu Sijun, maybe the old lady was worried that her birth was not good, so she said these words to comfort. Or maybe there's something else. In short, such a sensible old lady is really too rare.
Mu Sijun's heart warmed, "Thank you, grandma, I know." ”
Although they were not a real husband and wife, Mu Sijun thought that as long as he was in the Hou Mansion for one day, he must make the old lady happy for one day.
She even envied Baili Chengnuo for having such a good grandmother, and only hoped that it would be good if she had such a relative.
"Silly girl," the old lady pointed to her forehead, "Say thank you to grandma, don't you see you." I really want to thank you, so I will give birth to a few more little grandchildren and grandchildren to hug me, and my old wife is so hopeful. ”
Here it is again, and here it is.
When Baili Chengnuo came back in the evening, he heard that she had gone to Shanshoutang, and he came to inquire about it.
At that time, Mu Sijun was really having dinner, so he ordered someone to serve him a bowl as well.
Baili Chengnuo saw Xiao Tao, and his expression was correct, "When did you invite a girl again, if there is a shortage of people around you, tell me, and I will help you find something reliable." ”
Doesn't this mean that Xiao Tao is not reliable, Xiao Tao's face turned red and he didn't dare to reply.
Mu Sijun smiled, "You don't know her?" She was originally someone close to Zeng Qiaoniang. ”
"Oh," Baili Chengnuo looked at it carefully, and did not speak again.
After finishing the meal, the others left, and Baili Chengnuo suddenly came over and smiled, "You are really bold, aren't you afraid of being bitten by snakes when you play with snakes?" ”
He seemed to like this way, pulled Mu Sijun's wheelchair over, and then propped his hands on the armrests, as if he circled her in his sight, and the most important thing was that no matter how close he leaned, she couldn't dodge and couldn't move.
Mu Sijun dodged back, and a male breath still came to his face. She tried to push him away a bit, but her hand was grabbed again.
Baili Hou Ye was very embarrassed, "Why are you so proactive today?" ”
Mu Sijun, "...... Don't you want to know what Momo told me? ”
"What did you say?"
"Stay away from me first, and I'll tell you."
"Then if I don't want to know, can I get closer." Baili Chengnuo smiled and got a little closer, and the snort between them was almost audible.
Mu Sijun's eyes closed, his hand was forced, and he was about to let Ash go up and bite him, when he suddenly felt the pressure in front of him disappear.
Baili Chengnuo looked at her with a smile on his face, "Forget it, I won't tease you, let's talk about it, what did you talk about with grandma today, and Xiao Tao, what did she say?" ”
Mu Sijun felt that she actually had a thin layer of sweat, what was she nervous about? What is she afraid of?
Taking the opportunity to drink tea, she was able to calm down, "Grandma told me today that she wanted to hug her grandson as soon as possible. ”
Before her words fell, Baili Chengnuo choked on a sip of tea in her throat, almost choking to death.
Mu Sijun saw that he coughed for a long time before he came to his senses, and asked with a smile, "Do you want to know what we talked about?" ”
"Ahem, ahem," Baili Chengnuo waved his hand, "No, you better tell me what Xiao Tao said." ”
Mu Sijun is as good as a stream, "Xiao Tao said, the Grand Duke is coming." ”
Listening to these three words, Baili Chengnuo frowned slightly and did not speak.
