Chapter 427: Love and Righteousness (I)
Yuuka looked at the second lady puzzled.
The second lady said lightly: "Think about it, pull out the radish and still carry the mud." If Hou Ye didn't believe in the Fourth Lady, he would be like back then, not only would he not investigate, but he would also help hide it and find a way to get this matter over quickly. She showed a contemplative expression, "Master Hou looks very gentle, but he is very conceited in his bones. Knowing that the person had entered the main house, he not only wanted to check, but also found the fifth master as a helper, and checked it with great fanfare. And the first one to check is the main house where the fourth lady lives. He didn't dare to say anything else, at least, he believed that the fourth lady had absolutely nothing to do with this matter. Otherwise, he would not have entrusted the fourth lady to Mrs. Tai at this time...... If you want to say who our fourth master believes in the most, I'm afraid it's Mrs. Tai! As he spoke, he suddenly smiled, "I hope that this time our Hou Ye didn't look at the wrong person!" Otherwise, the matter is so big, there is no way to end it! There was a little ridicule in his eyes.
Yuuka thought of what happened back then, and couldn't help but fall silent.
The room was quiet, and the sound of bamboo waves was heard, and it was smashed into the sky.
Mother Du stood in front of Mrs. Tai, listening to the rustle of the rain hitting the branches and leaves, Rao was an old man for many years, and she couldn't help but be frightened.
"Asleep!" Mrs. Tai looked down at Xu Sizhen.
"Yes!" Mother Du's answer was a little more cautious than usual, "Amber said, the fourth lady was too tired, and she knew that the fourth young master was fine, so she fell asleep on the beauty couch. I saw that the fourth lady was sleeping soundly, so I didn't let me wake up. ”
Mrs. Tai's eyes flashed, and she stood up: "Let's go, let's go and see!" ”
Mother Du didn't dare to say anything, and followed Mrs. Tai to the east room.
The bean-sized light illuminates the silence of the room in the dim and yellow, and the sleeping face of the eleventh mother is tranquil and peaceful.
Mrs. Tai stood in front of the couch and stared for a long time, and then withdrew as quietly as she came.
Amber breathed a sigh of relief.
Madame Tai stopped in the hall.
"You go to the main house and take a look, how is it going?"
Mrs. Tai's expression was serious.
Du's mother whispered "yes" and hurriedly walked out of the hall.
Mrs. Tai was alone for a long time, and slowly went to the inner room.
Xu Sizhen slept peacefully. Mrs. Tai sat down beside him gently, helped him tuck the corners of the quilt, and then closed her eyes and leaned on the pillow of the kang head.
The flames jumped, making a crackling sound.
Du's mother crept in.
"Madame," there was unconcealed worry in her voice, "the fifth master found a mask at the back of the house where Yan Rong lived. ”
Mrs. Tai opened her eyes suddenly, and the dim room was as sharp as a blade.
"What did Master Hou say?"
Mother Du paused and said in a low voice: "Master Hou let me check again." ”
Mrs. Tai slowly closed her eyes again.
Check it again, because if he investigates, he is confident that this matter will not involve Eleven Niang? Isn't he annoyed that this kind of thing happens again and again?
The bell in the house rang nine times.
Mother Du hesitated for a while: "Mrs. Tai, this is not something that can be decided for a while, I think, you might as well rest first." Fourth Young Master, I'm looking at it here. The Fourth Young Master will wake up tomorrow morning, and you will have to personally instruct us to help the Fourth Young Master suppress the shock! ”
Mrs. Tai shook her head slightly: "I'll wait here!" "The attitude is very resolute.
Mother Du didn't dare to say more, so she took the bed and put it on Mrs. Tai's body.
Mrs. Tai opened her mouth faintly: "You say, does this matter have anything to do with Eleven Niang?" There was a lot of doubt in his tone.
Du's mother's hairs all over her body were firm.
"The Fourth Lady is a wise man," she said thoughtfully, "I don't think I'd do such a thing!" ”
Only talk about cleverness, not generosity.
Mrs. Tai turned her head to look at Xu Si.
"This kid is a blessing in the end." There are a few regrets in the sigh.
Mother Du couldn't guess what Mrs. Tai meant, so she persuaded in a low voice: "The fourth young master has Mrs. Tai, how can it be a blessing?" Just settle down. Didn't the Changchun Daoist also say that the fourth young master had 'three calamities', which happened to be the unwarranted calamity. The fourth young master has passed this hurdle, and he will be fine in the future......"
Mrs. Tai didn't listen seriously, and before Du's mother finished speaking, she suddenly said: "If this matter is really related to Eleven Niang, what if I turn a blind eye?" Still is...... What about meddling? ”
Mrs. Tai also came smoothly in her early years, and she had a lot of temper. Later, the second master died of illness, the old Hou Ye was implicated, and the Hou Ye was far away from his hometown...... After a lot of things, Mrs. Tai slowly lost her temper. But in the end, he has cultivated his temperament since he was a child, otherwise, he would not have asked Yuan Niang for medical advice everywhere, and begged a fourth young master to come. In the final analysis, Mrs. Tai is not convinced, and she doesn't believe that she has no grandchildren. Now that I'm older, and I'm going to say "old and young", this temper is becoming more and more unrestrained. Others don't know the changes in Mrs. Tai, but Du's mother knows it.
If Mrs. Tai had made up her mind to meddle in the management, she would have been sent to ask a long time ago, so why hesitate so much. is obviously afraid that this matter is related to Eleven Niang, and he has a mind about the mud. can think of Xu Sizhen, who has lost his mother and grew up by his side since he was a child, he can't help but feel a little guilty, and he can't make up his mind for a while.
If Mrs. Tai made up her mind, it would be good to say, but if she couldn't make up her mind, the stake was very big, and Mother Du didn't dare to get involved.
"Probably not!" She said ambiguously, "Hou Ye and Fifth Master have already gone to check, and there should be news early tomorrow morning." ”
Mrs. Tai didn't need Du's mother's answer, it was a dilemma to decide whether to care or not, she just wanted to strengthen her determination.
"It doesn't matter if it has anything to do with her or not." Mrs. Tai muttered, "Only her steadiness is enough to afford this family belonging...... I'm old, and Yizhen is just a sister-in-law after all...... If the name is not right, if the words are not good, it is easy to make trouble......" The old man said, his eyes fell on Xu Sizhen's sleeping face again, "...... But what about this child...... Is it really just a matter of letting him fend for himself......" Speaking of this, two tears couldn't help but drip from the corners of his eyes, "There are times in life, and there are times in life." I didn't do it right......"
There is something in my heart, and Eleven Niang does not sleep soundly.
After a two-hour nap, she woke up.
I looked sideways to see Amber sitting on the edge of the couch in a daze.
"What time is it?" Eleven Niang asked softly.
Amber was startled, and then looked at the floor clock: "It's past three quarters." Then he turned around and poured a glass of warm boiled water.
Eleven Niang drank water and asked her lazily, "Is there any news over there?" ”
Amber hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "I heard from the jade version, the fifth master found a mask behind Yanrong's wing. ”
Eleven Niang's expression was solemn, and she sat up: "What did Master Hou say?" ”
"Master Hou," Amber stumbled, "Master Hou let me continue to investigate!" ”
Eleven Niang was stunned, and after a while, she gently leaned on the beauty, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows seemed to be unstoppable, and she actually had a shallow smile.
Amber looked strange.
Something so big happened, Madame was not in a hurry to think of a way, and she looked like nothing happened.
Eleven Niang had instructed her: "Go and see if there is anything to eat, I'm a little hungry." ”
Amber froze.
Eleven Niang said: "If you don't eat enough, how will you work!" He grinned again, "Go!" "There is a rare liveliness and cheerfulness between words and deeds, and there is no worry at all.
Amber was puzzled and told the little maid outside the door to ask. The little maid didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly went to Du's mother.
Du's mother opened her mouth and stammered: "Hungry? ”
The fact that a mask was found behind the house where Yanrong lived was revealed to Eleven Niang by Du's mother according to Mrs. Tai's instructions.
She couldn't help but look at the lady.
Mrs. Tai bowed slightly, glanced at Xu Sizhen, and faintly showed a bit of resoluteness between her eyebrows: "Look what she wants to eat, let the small kitchen cook it for her!" ”
Du's mother left in response.
"Don't be that troublesome." Eleven Niang smiled, "Look at what is prepared for Mrs. Tai in the small kitchen, just get some to pad your stomach." Then he asked, "Has Mrs. Tai rested?" What happened to Brother Zhen? ”
"The fourth young master has already fallen asleep after taking the medicine." Mother Du thought about Mrs. Tai's instructions and said with a smile, "Mrs. Tai also fell asleep next to the fourth young master." Thinking that it would take time to make a stove fire at this time, the small kitchen prepared wolfberry, lotus seeds, ginseng, black chicken soup, and yam cake for Mrs. Tai today, all of which were qi-replenishing and easy to restrain themselves, so I asked the little maid to serve them.
Eleven Niang moved to the big kang near the window and sat down, and just drank a few sips of chicken soup, there was a noise outside.
Amber was about to go out to have a look, when Xu Lingyi opened the curtain and entered.
When the two met, they were a little surprised.
Thinking about this, since there was an unexpected situation, the time for this inspection must be a bit long, but I didn't expect him to appear soon; Thinking that when she left, she avoided the east corner alone, although Liu Yizheng said that it was okay, but she was still a little uneasy, and she never thought that she would sit on the kang like no one and eat and drink.
"Is Master Hou hungry?" Eleven Niang reacted first, "Do you want to add a little?" Chicken soup is the best for those who stay up late! ”
"Oh!" Xu Lingyi quickly returned to normal after a short period of helplessness, "You eat!" I'm not hungry! As he spoke, his eyes fell on her abdomen.
Eleven Niang hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Master Hou, Doctor Liu is saying it's okay." I think it's pretty good, too. Then he told him what had happened after he left.
When Xu Lingyi heard that she had slept for a while, a smile flashed in her eyes, and she sat on the kang opposite her: "That's good!" ”
Sitting closer, Eleven Niang found that there was still a little moisture on the tips of his hair, and instructed Amber: "Get hot water to wipe Hou Ye's face!" ”
Amber departed.
Seeing that Xu Lingyi did not object, Eleven Niang knew that he was not just sitting and leaving, and when the little maid served tea, she asked Xu Lingyi: "Has Master Hou seen Brother Zhen?" ”
"See!" Xu Lingyi took a sip of tea, and then took a long breath, with a strong worry between his eyebrows, "I don't know what to do until I wake up tomorrow!" ”
The implication is that Xu Sizhen's situation is not clear.
Eleven Niang was silent.
Amber fetched water in.
Xu Lingyi wiped her face, sat down again, saw that Shi Niang's chopsticks were put aside and did not move, and pointed to the yam cake that was as white as snow and made into a begonia pattern: "Eat it!" When it's cold, be careful with your diaphragm in your heart. ”
