Chapter 42: The Xu Family Dart Game (10)

Around the hot springs, there are many small pavilions with tables and chairs, and there are free places to rest.

Around the hot springs, the nearby scenery is excellent, there are mountains and rivers, flowers and trees, all of which have been artificially cared for, beautiful and exquisite.

It's still early, and the sun is warm at this time. Mu Qingwan instructed Jixiang to take a medical book from the carriage, and then basking in the sun boredly, quietly flipping through the medical book, taking notes seriously with a charcoal pen in his hand, and patiently waiting for Mu Chen to come out, a leisurely and complacent scene.

"Brother Yuan, slow down, wait for me." Zheng Qingshuang hadn't left yet, and at this time she didn't know where she came from, and was trotting after a thin man.

Mu Qingwan raised her head and looked at the visitor from afar. This time, I finally met the legendary actor Yuan Chenghuan himself.

Medium height, thin figure, wearing a white dress, the appearance of a scholar, fair face, handsome appearance, a gentle and elegant image of a humble gentleman. But in Mu Qingwan's opinion, he really didn't understand what was worth the two women Zheng Qingshuang and Ying Qian dying for him. In terms of appearance, but in terms of middle and upper qualifications, in terms of temperament, although it seems to be gentle, there is a hint of yin in his eyes, which really cannot be compared with Mu Chen's spring breeze.

"Frost, I'm sorry. I promised to be good to you and give you happiness in the future, but I really don't deserve you. Yuan Chenghuan stopped, turned around and said to Zheng Qingshuang affectionately.

"No, Brother Yuan, you don't want to be like this. We love each other with all our hearts, and I go back and beg my father. Yes, yes, Father will help you. Zheng Qingshuang said anxiously.

"Frost, you, you have to believe me, I will really be good to you." Yuan Chenghuan took a step forward and gently hugged Zheng Qingshuang with a bitter face.

If she hadn't known some inside information in advance, Mu Qingwan might have felt sorry for this hard-working lover.

"Well, I know, I know it." Zheng Qingshuang blushed and gently snuggled into Yuan Chenghuan's arms, and the two left together.

Mu Qingwan, who witnessed the whole process, was very speechless. The Jing Dynasty is not as conservative as the ancient folk customs, and there is no distinction between men and women at the age of seven, but in some aspects, the requirements for women are still very harsh. In public, men and women have intimate behavior, which is also very illegal here. Zheng Qingshuang is also the descendant of the family, and the basic etiquette should be compulsory since childhood, but now he is pulling men regardless of it, this is really miserable.

Mu Qingwan has never touched the emotional strings in her past and present lives, and she is very wise about many things, and she really has no way to understand the love between men and women. Therefore, when dealing with both Ying Qian and Zheng Qingshuang's behavior, they feel incredible and have no way to understand it.

It didn't take long for Mu Chen to come out with Hu Zhao, and everyone converged and returned to the inn. On the carriage, Mu Qingwan told Mu Chen what she had seen and heard today, and after half a sound, Mu Chen said in a hurry, "My sister will marry in the future, my father and I will strictly control it, and my sister should also think more about it, a real lover will never do anything to hurt you." Moreover, my sister can rest assured, if he is bullied in the future, my brother will not let him go......" The corners of Mu Qingwan's mouth twitched fiercely, and her head was full of black lines.

In Xianyang, it can't be delayed for too long, and Xu Lang's matter still has to be resolved as soon as possible.

At noon, the guards sent to check on Xu Lang's wife, Li's mother's family, came to report that there were new discoveries.

The Li family originally opened a tofu shop and did small business. Now that the shop has been closed, he is still living well, and the Li family has also made a small county order for Jiupin.

The guards squatted near the Li family, and then found that the Li family's reputation was not very good, and the neighbors had little contact with the Li family. However, some neighbors said that on a fixed few days every month, a mother-in-law would go to the Li family, and then the old lady of the Li family would go around showing off her daughter and subsidizing her family, raising a good son and a good daughter, and so on.

This morning, it happened to be the day when the mother-in-law went to Li's house, and then the guards followed the mother-in-law until they reached the Yuan Mansion, and watched the mother-in-law enter the door of the Yuan Mansion. The guards gave the doorkeeper five taels of wine money, so he found out that the mother-in-law turned out to be the mother-in-law in the eighth aunt's house.

In addition, he also asked about some of the situation in the Yuan Mansion, the wife of the Yuan Mansion injured her body when she gave birth to a child, so that it was difficult to give birth in the future, so there is only one eldest young master in the Yuan Mansion until now. However, there are many women in Yuan's mansion, Yuan Taishou enjoys the blessings of all the people, there are twelve concubines in the mansion who are just raised as aunts, and there are many unnamed maidens, some of whom are filial piety to subordinates, and some are accepted into the mansion by Yuan Taishou himself. There are more women, and there are more children, although there are many miscarriages and children who die in the backyard, but so many women have also given birth to a lot of concubines and concubines. It was a taboo for the ancients to have nothing to do, and Mrs. Yuan couldn't have children herself, so she could only be a person with her tail between her legs, because she turned a blind eye to the things in the house.

As for the eighth aunt, it was Yuan Taishou who was accepted into the house six years ago, and it is said that the eighth aunt was raised by Yuan Taishou in the outer room before, and later had a child, and the mother was received in the house by virtue of her son, and the aunt was carried away. The eighth aunt has the seventh young master and the ninth miss under her name, the seventh young master is more than six years old this year, and he was born when he was outside the mansion before, and the ninth miss is four years old. Although she is not as young and beautiful as the aunt who came later, the eighth aunt is better than she has read a little book and can read and write, so the eighth aunt is still favored in the house. The eighth aunt's elder brother, that is, the eldest lang of the Li family, through Yuan Taishou's dotting, made the following nine-grade small county order, there was no big achievement, and there were even some mistakes, but unfortunately they were all suppressed by Yuan Taishou.

Things have become clear, the Li family did not elope with someone at the beginning, but did not know how to hook up with Yuan Taishou, and the rest of the matter can be explained. It's just that why did the Li family start dealing with Xu Lang only three years ago, and what is going on here? It's a pity that three years have passed, and a lot of evidence has long been destroyed, and the matter is untraceable. It seems that it is better to start from the Yuan Mansion.

"Brother, eighty percent of Xu Lang's affairs are related to the Li family of the Yuan Mansion, but why did the Li family start to frame Xu Lang three years ago? I think we still have to start with Yuan's house. Mu Qingwan looked at her brother Mu Chen.

"Don't make a noise yet, what is more difficult is that now in Xianyang, Yuan Taishou almost covers the sky with his hands, if we are exposed, the consequences will be unimaginable." Mu Chen solemnly admonished Mu Qingwan. "However, before leaving, my father told me about some powerful relationships in officialdom along the way, Xianyang General Soldier's surname is Wu, he was originally his grandfather's protégé, and he is righteous and heroic, and Xianyang General Soldier and Taishou have not been in harmony, we can start from here. Sister, let's send a message to the General Soldier's Mansion and look for an opportunity to visit the General Soldier. ”

"Well, got it, brother." Mu Qingwan nodded.

Mu Chen turned around and wrote a poster and asked the guards to send it to the General Soldier's Mansion.
