Chapter 109: Brother and Sister Night Talk (1)
"Scared? Ti Hong didn't understand. Ti Hong shook her head suspiciously.
Luo Qingqian said as she walked: "You think about it, this incident happened this morning, and the eldest lady knew about it in the evening, and she was so anxious to ask me, she said that she didn't recognize Zhang Wen, do you believe it?" ”
"Of course I don't believe it," Ti Hong shook her head and said, "Miss means that the eldest lady and the shopkeeper are indeed acquaintances, and this is to find out the news from Miss!" Did she want to intercede for this man? ”
Luo Qing glanced at Ti Hong, knowing that although she had been serving by her side, her actual age was not very old, even if she seemed to be clever and sensible on weekdays, she didn't know much about these private affairs of the house, and she was far less clever than Shicui.
However, she is absolutely loyal to Luo Qingqian, there is no doubt about this. So Luo Qingqian also liked Ti Hong, and seeing that she still looked puzzled, she also explained: "The news is true, but how can you intercede." It is estimated that she wishes that Zhang Wen would die in prison sooner! That way she can sit back and relax. ”
"Ahh Ti Hong is not such a stupid person, she also understood when she was mentioned by Luo Qingqian, and said, "Miss is saying that the eldest lady is also involved in this matter?" ”
Luo Qingqian nodded, her eyes flashed, and she said, "Even if she didn't participate in this matter today, she must know the situation of the store very well before." Especially in the accounts of the past two years, she must have used our shop to do something, which is why she was so flustered to ask me about the situation today. ”
"Miss, what shall we do then?" Ti Hong said in a hurry.
Luo Qing said shallowly: "Don't be in a hurry first. Don't tell your mother about this tonight, lest she be tired. Go back and bring me all the account books that Wen sent me in the past two years and bring them to my room, and I want to take a closer look. ”
In fact, Luo Qingqian was a little anxious, but she was very short of manpower now. She now hopes to know what kind of relationship Zhang Wen has with the eldest lady as soon as possible.
But it will take a while to find out about this. At present, I can only hold my troops for now, hoping that Chen Nuo's side can find more evidence, and it will be good to close Zhang Wen for a few more days.
The master and servant returned to the courtyard of the fourth room, and the Guo family was still waiting for Luo Qingqian to have dinner together, and Leng Moxin was describing to everyone what happened to Luo Qingqian in the store during the day.
Seeing that Luo Qingqian was back, Guo Shi hurriedly beckoned: "Come over and talk to your mother about what is going on?" ”
"Mother," Luo Qingqian stepped forward slowly, sat down in Guo's lower hand position and said, "There is actually nothing about this, I think Mother Liu and Miss Leng have already made it very clear." I just happened to find out that the interpreter was lying, and I also found out that the shopkeeper was selling inferior silk as fine silk, which was the most smashing signboard thing, so I stopped it. Originally, I just wanted them to have a lesson, but it directly attracted King Jing. This incident was determined to be a collusion between the two to deceive. So they were arrested by the Yamen. ”
Luo Yunfeng asked puzzled: "But sister, I heard Miss Leng say just now that you can speak the Xiyi language, what's going on?" Do you really understand what they say? ”
Luo Qingqian secretly screamed in her heart, how could she forget that there was such a thing? She lowered her head slightly, rolled her eyes, raised her head and said, "Brother, aren't you in the Baiyi Pavilion, you have been learning the Xiyi language before." ”
Luo Yunfeng was stunned for a moment and said: "I, I learned, but I haven't learned anything, how can you do it?" ”
Luo Qingqian said with a confused face: "Brother, didn't you invite a person who taught Xiyi language to teach you at home for a while, I was playing outside the door at that time, and I listened to it for a while." Maybe that's when I learned it. Anyway, I can understand and speak. ”
This is exactly what happened. When Luo Yunfeng first joined the Baiyi Pavilion, he really wanted to learn Xiyi from a person who knew the Xiyi language, and he did invite that person to teach him every day. At that time, Luo Qingqian was still an idiot, very curious, and always played behind Luo Yunfeng.
However, Luo Yunfeng studied for a long time and was not allowed to enter, and in the end he could only give up. As soon as he heard Luo Qingqian mention this matter today, Luo Yunfeng also thought about it all of a sudden, and suddenly said in surprise: "I haven't learned it for so long, how can you learn it?" That's weird too! ”
"Strange what? That's you stupid! Guo Shi opened his mouth at this time: "Your sister is a person who has been enlightened by the Buddha, what is so strange about being able to understand these Xiyi words!" ”
When Guo said this, Luo Yunfeng was speechless. Although I was puzzled, I thought that my sister had become so smart from being stupid, and it didn't seem like a big deal to be able to speak Xiyi.
Luo Qingqian lowered her head slightly and stuck out her tongue secretly.
This scene was fully watched by Guo Zirui, who had been quietly listening to them, and a touch of contemplation crossed his quiet eyes.
After Guo trained his son, he took Luo Qingqian's hand and asked, "Just now Mother Liu said that the eldest lady called you over, what is the matter with her?" ”
Luo Qingqian patted her mother's hand soothingly and said, "It's just that someone leaked the news of the shopkeeper's arrest to her, so she asked me to ask." Nothing big. ”
"Alas!" Guo suddenly sighed and said: "I blamed me for not knowing people clearly, thinking that although the eldest lady was in love with the power in her hands, she had a good heart, but I didn't expect her to introduce such a person to our store as the shopkeeper." If you hadn't checked today, you might have caused them some trouble. ”
Luo Qingqian knew that Guo's previous thoughts were almost all on herself, so she didn't care about these store matters. She hurriedly comforted: "My mother has been worried about her daughter's life all these years, and she has to take care of her brother and father. And that Zhang Wen is a scheming person at first glance, and it is difficult to find out if he plays tricks. Mother don't blame herself. ”
Guo Shi looked at her sensible daughter, looked at her son and nephew on the side, and saw that everyone was looking at her worriedly, so she also nodded and said, "Okay!" Don't worry. I've already thought about it, and I'm going to go on with it! Our family is now working together to live a good life. I will find you all a good relative, so that you can be worthy of your father!" ”
As soon as they heard Guo's talk about getting married, Luo Yunfeng and Luo Qingqian, the two brothers and sisters, were all big for a while, and Luo Yunfeng hurriedly interrupted loudly: "Mother, my sister is back, when are we going to eat!" ”
"You know how to eat!" Guo Shi glanced at him and said, "Mother Liu has already gone to the kitchen, and she should be back soon." ”
"Cousin, Mo Xin, I'm so embarrassed to ask you to wait for me to eat!" Luo Qingqian said apologetically.
Guo Zirui smiled mildly and said: "We are all a family, what is the problem with my sister as an elder brother, my cousin is too polite." ”
Leng Moxin pouted and said, "I still said that we are good sisters during the day, and now you are so different from me!" ”
Luo Qingqian saw her little daughter's delicate appearance, couldn't help but chuckle, and hurriedly said, "Okay, it's my fault!" Anyway, it's a family sooner or later, so I really shouldn't have seen you! Saying that, a pair of watery eyes winked at Guo Zirui, and said playfully: "Cousin, I'm right!" ”
Guo Zirui was stunned, but he didn't expect to be ridiculed by his little cousin again, so he could only smile with a slight red face.
This time, Liu's mother's voice came from outside the door, and Guo Zirui's embarrassment was relieved in time - "Madam, dinner is ready!" ”
Hearing this, Guo Shi hurriedly spoke: "Spread quickly! ”
After the family had dinner, they chatted for a while.
Luo Qingqian learned that Guo Zirui had found a new house, and he was expected to go to the yamen tomorrow to go through the relevant trading procedures, so he naturally congratulated him again.
And Leng Moxin will continue to stay in Luofu, on the one hand, she is a girl's house, even if she is in love with Guo Zirui, but she will definitely not be able to stay in Guo's mansion before she gets married, and on the other hand, it is for Guo's body. Before getting the thousand-year-old blood ginseng medicine, Luo Qingqian's two siblings still hoped that she could stay by Guo's side and take care of her.
After the arrangement was made here, everyone went to the good night with Guo, and each went back to his room to prepare for a rest.
Luo Qingqian was walking towards her small courtyard with Ti Hong, when she suddenly heard a call from behind her: "Cousin, slow down." ”
Hearing that the voice was Guo Zirui, Luo Qingqian stopped and turned around in confusion.
At this moment, the sky was already dark, Ti Hong had already put a small lantern in her hand, and Guo Zirui in the distance was also carrying a lantern in her hand and walked over slowly.
"Cousin, what's the matter with me so late?" Luo Qingqian looked at Guo Zirui who came to the front with some puzzlement.
Guo Zirui held a lantern in one hand and behind his back with the other, looked at the slim Luo Qing in front of him and smiled gently: "Cousin, don't be afraid." I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm afraid I'm going to be busy for a while, and there are some things I want to talk about to my cousin alone, I don't know if it's okay? ”
