Chapter 114: Differential Treatment
After Gonggong Mo came to Luofu to pass on the decree, he did not leave in a hurry, but stood in the hall, saying that he would wait for Luo Qingqian to come in person, and the Queen Mother had something to say to Luo Qingqian.
You Shi had no choice, so he asked someone to go to the backyard to summon Luo Qingqian over. Originally, she stepped forward to ask Grandpa Mo to sit down, but he said that he was used to serving the Queen Mother in the palace and didn't want to sit. You Shi had no choice but to stand there and wait with him. Although there was a smile on his face, he was very stiff.
And Luo Qingchu, the eldest lady of the Luo family, who received the news from her mother, soon came to the main hall, and saw her mother and Grandpa Mo standing there without speaking, so she slowly stepped forward and squatted at Grandpa Mo and said, "I've seen Grandpa Mo!" ”
Father-in-law Mo recognized the two young ladies of the Luo family, and when he saw Luo Qingchu, who had a gentle face and a soft tone, he gave him a salute, and finally a smile appeared on his face and said, "Miss Luo is polite!" ”
Luo Qingchu got up, a standard melon seed face was as white as jade, a pair of watery eyes were soft and flowing, and his tone was even more gentle and soft: "There is a trip to Lao Mo's father-in-law." My sister's yard is a little far away, and I came slowly, and my sister in the early days of Qing Chu gave Grandpa Mo a companion! He squatted down slightly and saluted.
Father-in-law Mo looked at Luo Qingqian, who was wearing a lake-blue long dress in front of him and had a soft face, and finally said with a more real smile on his face: "It's rare that the eldest lady still remembers the miscellaneous family." Doing things for the Queen Mother can be said to be hard or not, this is all a matter of miscellaneous family. As for the eldest lady, everyone praised her as knowledgeable and reasonable, and she took good care of the sisters in the family, which is really a model of a noble lady in the boudoir! ”
Luo Qingchu smiled softly and said, "Grandpa Mo has won the award!" Qingchu is the daughter of the Luo family, and it is right to take care of her sister. Father-in-law should sit down and wait, at the beginning of the day, I had already prepared the Wushan spring tea specially purchased by my father for Father-in-law Mo. Although it must not be as good as the palace, it can also quench the thirst of the father-in-law. ”
Grandpa Mo smiled deeper, and finally replied, "Oh? The miscellaneous family heard that the Wushan spring tea was a little worse than the Wulian spring tea offered by the emperor, and it was ordered out by the prince's mansions every picking season. Luo Shangshu can actually buy it? The miscellaneous family is better than obeying the fate! I am fortunate to be able to drink Wushan tea, which is also a blessing for miscellaneous families. ”
Luo Qingchu raised his hand and said politely: "This Wushan tea is indeed rare, this is what my father ordered a year in advance." ”
Grandpa Mo sat down. Luo Qing moved slightly, and the maid who followed behind Luo Qingchu held the tea tray in her hand, and gently placed a cup of emerald green tea bowl with tea on the table, and then bowed down.
"Please give Grandpa Mo a try." Luo Qingchu raised his hand to signal.
Grandpa Mo was no longer polite, picked up the teacup and sniffed it first, and then smiled after taking a sip: "Oh, this Wushan tea is really good!" The color is green, and the lips and teeth are fragrant! ”
Luo Qingchu still smiled and said, "If Grandpa Mo likes it, bring some back to drink." ”
Hearing this, Gonggong Mo smiled and said: "How embarrassing is this, this tea is also a very precious thing!" The miscellaneous family has this blessing. ”
Luo Qingchu covered his mouth and smiled: "Father-in-law Mo is a great merit to serve the Queen Mother, and it is its blessing to give this Wushan tea to Father-in-law." As she spoke, she turned around and took a delicately packaged small box from the other maid and said, "My father also drank some of this tea, and there is not much left." Grandpa Mo is not polite, just accept it! ”
As he spoke, he held his hands to Grandpa Mo.
Grandpa Mo hurriedly stood up, pushed his hands slightly and said, "Oh, this can't be done!" What embarrassment does this make the miscellaneous family! ”
Luo Qingchu smiled, and pushed the box into the hands of Mo Gonggong and said: "The Queen Mother announced that my second sister has entered the palace, although she has opened her wisdom, but after entering the palace, I am still worried that she does not understand the rules, so don't make the Queen Mother angry." This time, Qingchu can't follow, and I hope that Grandpa Mo will take care of it more. ”
Hearing this, Grandpa Mo nodded again and again: "That's nature!" The second lady and the eldest lady care about her sister so much, and it is also her blessing. The eldest lady rest assured, Yi Zhi said that the second lady would enter the palace tomorrow, and did not say that she could not be accompanied by her family. If the eldest lady is not at ease, she can enter the palace with the second lady tomorrow. The miscellaneous family believes that the Queen Mother will like you. As he spoke, he put the small box in his arms.
When Luo Qingchu heard this, her eyes flashed, and she smiled softly: "Qingchu doesn't have the peerless appearance of the second sister, where she dares to go to the queen mother to show her ugliness." Qing Chu knew that the Queen Mother worshiped the Buddha, and accidentally got a string of white sandalwood Buddha beads, and I heard that it was opened by a monk who had attained the Tao. Tomorrow, I will let my second sister bring it to the Queen Mother, I hope the Queen Mother can like it. ”
Mo Gong said: "The eldest lady is gentle and virtuous, and the queen mother will definitely like it!" ”
Luo Qingchu bowed his head and saluted: "Qingchu thank Gonggong Jiyan!" ”
As he was talking, a small voice came from the door: "Second Miss is here!" ”
The bead curtain was lifted from the outside, and Luo Qing, who was wearing a snow-white long skirt and a tassel of the same color, walked in slowly.
The sunlight was shining behind her, even though her face was in the shadows caused by the light at the moment, and she couldn't see clearly. Father-in-law Mo vaguely felt that this girl who walked in slowly exuded a sense of nobility that he was common in the palace, which made people feel an inexplicable urge to kneel.
But this feeling came strongly, and it disappeared quickly, and the stunning face of Luo Qingqian, who walked out of the aperture, made Grandpa Mo put aside the inexplicable thoughts just now, and only amazed.
When Luo Qing first saw Grandpa Mo, she was a little stunned and looked at Luo Qingqian, who came closer, and her heart crossed a touch of unwillingness! But she quickly covered up this emotion, and still called in a soft voice: "Why did the second sister come so late, and I didn't apologize and apologize for the guilt after waiting so long for Gonggong Mo!" ”
Luo Qingqian saw that this father-in-law who came to declare Yi's will was the person he had seen in Jingguo Temple before, and knew that he was the right-hand man of the Queen Mother's side, Father-in-law Mo.
However, she also knew that eunuchs were not actually official positions, but just servants who served the nobles in the palace.
She is the niece of the court, even if Father-in-law Mo is a palace person who serves the Queen Mother, according to the rules, she doesn't need to say guilt!
So she just glanced at Luo Qingchu, stepped forward and just bowed slightly, and said in a tone that was neither humble nor arrogant: "I've seen Father-in-law Mo, let Father-in-law wait for a long time!" ”
And Gonggong Mo has always known that the Queen Mother is very fond of this second miss of the Luo family, and it is also important to recruit the second miss of Luo into the palace this time. Therefore, his attitude towards Luo Qingqian is completely different from that towards Luo Qingchu.
He hurriedly bowed to Luo Qing, and said with a humble smile on his face: "Second Miss, don't say that, the miscellaneous family is just an errand runner." ”
Luo Qingqian knew that this Gonggong Mo had already announced the Empress Dowager's decree just now, and according to common sense, his task had already been completed, so he didn't have to wait for her to come over and say it again. But what does it mean that he did not leave?
Blinking those watery eyes, Luo Qing said slightly: "Father-in-law is too humble!" It's a great honor to be able to serve the Queen Mother, I don't know how the Queen Mother has been in health recently? Harusa's miss it very much. ”
Hearing that Luo Qingqian, who was originally stupid, was speaking in a clear manner at the moment, Grandpa Mo felt very magical. Originally, he didn't believe in the idea of opening spiritual wisdom, but after seeing the real person, seeing Luo Qingqian's eyes now bright, and his expression was full of anticipation, Gonggong Mo was indeed convinced of this statement.
He hurriedly bowed down and said, "The Queen Mother is fine." I am also very worried about the second lady. ”
Luo Qingqian said again: "Does the Queen Mother have something to tell Qingqian?" ”
Gonggong Mo immediately smiled and said, "Second Miss is really Bingxue smart. ”
Then he took a few steps forward, got closer to Luo Qing, and said in a low voice: "The Queen Mother hopes that the second miss will enter the palace tomorrow, and at the same time, I heard that there is a female doctor with excellent medical skills next to the second miss, and I hope that the second miss can enter the palace with her tomorrow." ”
Female doctors? Cold ink?
Luo Qingqian's heart moved slightly, and then nodded and said, "There is no problem with this, Qingqian must bring people into the palace." ”
Father-in-law Mo continued to whisper: "The Queen Mother commanded, the less people know about it at this time, the better, and I hope that the second lady will not make a noise." ”
Seeing that Gong Mo was mysterious, Luo Qingqian was a little strange, but he knew that he couldn't ask casually, so he only nodded and said, "Yes, Qingqian obeys the orders of the Queen Mother." ”
Seeing Gonggong Mo's attitude, thinking of the way he had been cautious and flattering this eunuch just now, Luo Qingchu, who was standing behind the two of them, turned slightly pale. The bare hand pinched the embroidered handkerchief tightly in the sleeve, and the teeth were clenched, and Luo Qingchu could even feel a trace of blood in his mouth.
