Chapter 221: Something Happened

Gao Yue came in and replied.

Rong Hua said: "You often follow Hou Ye outside, you know the severity, you will wait in the door for a while, and let your mother-in-law call you if you have something." ”

Gao Yue turned the young lady's words in his mind, and then said in a proper manner: "Young lady, don't worry." ”

Rong Hua nodded and let Gao Yue retreat.

After dealing with these things, Rong Hua went to rest on the couch for a while, and after getting up, Hong Shao took the little maid over to serve and freshen up, Rong Hua just changed his clothes and came out, and Chun Yao came in from the outside with the curtain, "The fourth master replied that the fourth master and Long Zhengping had finished talking. ”

Rong Hua nodded, and looked at Chunyao with a smile again, "Bring the handkerchief that you had when you were a child." ”

Chun Yao's heart "knocked" and jumped wildly, and took out the handkerchief that had been prepared a long time ago and handed it to Rong Hua.

Rong Hua said: "I'll let him see it and return it." ”

Chunyao shook his head, "Presumably he is a big man who doesn't know how to embroider here, so let him take the handkerchief and compare it, if he can't find me, he will die." ”

Chunyao bit his lip, his eyes were firm, Rong Hua knew that Chunyao had made up his mind like this. Over the years, Chunyao has been tired by his life experience, and when he heard the news, his whole heart was raised, and he was always disappointed in the end, so it was inevitable that he would be abrasive when he went around, and it would be good if he could see some of it.

Jiangnan is so big, it's not easy to find it.

Rong Hua took Hibiscus to the fourth wife's house and said a few words to the fourth wife, Rong Hua handed the handkerchief to the fourth wife, and told Chunyao about it.

The fourth wife was very surprised, "I didn't expect Chunyao's child to be blessed, but his life was bumpy." ”

The fourth wife entered the house and handed over the handkerchief, and came back with a message to Rong Hua, "It just so happens that Long Zhengping is going back to his hometown, and this matter can be done." ”

Rong Hua nodded.

The fourth lady sighed, "Although it is a private embroidery in Jiangnan, it is not necessarily easy to find, it is not particularly famous, so that people can know the source at a glance." ”

Rong Hua said: "Try to find it, if you can't find it, you can't help it, you always have to give it a try." ”

The fourth wife nodded with concern, and then moved her gaze back to Rong Hua's face, "Your fourth uncle and Long Zhengping both said that it will take some effort to build a fire room on Zhuangzi, but fortunately, Long Zhengping knows how to do it, and when the time comes, let your fourth uncle find a few people in the house to take a look, and it will be repaired as usual, Long Zhengping was supposed to stay and help, but the eldest lady in his family is gone, and the two children follow the old father and mother, and he always has to go back to take a look." ”

Rong Hua also heard about Long Zhengping's family, if it weren't for the fourth uncle who had an accident to save Long Zhengping, Long Zhengping would have gone back long ago.

Probably explained the matter of the fire room clearly, the fourth uncle and Long Zhengping were going out to sit, and the fourth wife and Rong Hua were talking about some family things in the house.

Rong Hua saw the opportunity and asked as if he didn't care, "Has the fourth uncle thought about what kind of store he wants to open?" ”

The fourth lady's expression really froze, and she wanted to say something but pressed it down, "He hasn't thought about it yet," he paused and said, "After all, it was the old lady who gave her the money to open the shop." Some time ago, he asked me to ask, you need a lot of money to change the fire room in Zhuangzi, if it is not enough, I will use it for you. ”

Rong Hua smiled: "It's enough for me here." ”

The fourth lady hesitated for a moment and did not continue.

Since it's hard to say, Rong Hua won't ask anymore, the fourth uncle and the fourth wife are her elders after all, and there is always some distance between the elders and the juniors.

Rong Hua returned to the courtyard, Jinxiu was already waiting at the door, and when he saw Rong Hua, he greeted him, "The third master has gone out, and Gao Yue has already followed." ”

As she thought, Rong Hua entered the house and called Chunyao and Jinxiu over, "Don't pay attention to the third room anymore." "Listen to Gao Yue's news.

As he was talking, Brother Hong came back from school with his husband.

Rong Hua took a handkerchief to wipe Brother Hong's sweat, and Mu Hibiscus hurriedly instructed the maid to pour tea.

Brother Hong drank tea, looked at the left and right and saw that there was no one else and said in a low voice: "Father wants my brother-in-law to go to the house to sit, but my brother-in-law always has something in the yali and has not agreed, my father asked me to come back and talk to my sister to see if I can go back with my brother-in-law." ”

Let Brother Hong take the talk.

The attitude is very polite.

Brother Hong looked at Rong Hua.

Rong Hua said: "Your brother-in-law has something to do these days, the emperor is going to accompany the capital, the case of the Ministry of Industry has just been concluded, even if he comes back every day, he will bring many dukes, I don't dare to go to the study to disturb." ”

Brother Hong's eyes lit up, "I know," after thinking about it, he said, "What does my sister mean, is my father's business ......?"

Rong Hua nodded, "That's what I think." "Brother Hong is not young, and there are some things that he has to know.

Brother Hong's thick black eyebrows were raised, and his face showed some perseverance, "During this time, my uncle and aunt often went to our house, and the family was talking about Concubine Jing, and said that my uncle and our family will be both prosperous and lose in the future, and I am afraid that my sister will be involved in this way, my sister must not be soft-hearted, and don't take care of me in some things, I have already thought about it, and after a while, Mingzhe and I will go to join the army." ”

Hearing this, Rong Hua couldn't help but be startled, and frowned, "Nonsense, how old are you and Mingzhe going to join the army, and where are you going to join the army?" ”

Brother Hong said unconvinced: "Why not, Mingzhe and I are already thirteen or fourteen years old, and my brother-in-law went to the barracks to experience training at this age," he straightened his waist as he spoke, "Mr. said, everything in books and school is nothing more than talk on paper, and if you want to learn real skills, you still have to go to the barracks." ”

Brother Hong seemed to have grown up all of a sudden, Rong Hua shook his head, "It's good that you have this thought, it's just that it will be a few years later, and then let your brother-in-law find a good place for you." ”

Brother Hong pouted, "It's all arranged at home, what's the point." Seeing Rong Hua's face, Brother Hong said with a smile, "Sister, don't talk about this yet, let's talk about something else." Then he took the bowl and drank it as if nothing had happened.

Rong Hua asked about Mrs. Tao's illness, "How is grandmother doing during this time?" ”

Brother Hong's expression became heavy, "After my sister came home last time, my grandmother's illness was good and bad, but my father was diligent in asking, and my grandmother talked to me when she saw me, asking me to go to my sister's house more often." ”

Thinking of Mrs. Tao, Rong Hua's eyes were sour.

Brother Hong said: "Grandmother also talked about the fifth sister and asked my father to bury the fifth sister well. ”

Rong Hua stepped forward and tidied up Brother Hong's neckline, and said in a low voice: "These days, you go to accompany your grandmother more, even if you sit next to you and don't speak, your grandmother is happy." ”

Brother Hong lowered his head and agreed, "Sister, you married into the Xue family, and you don't have a grandmother...... I'm not going to stay at that home. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Rong Hua tightly.

Xue Mingrui entered the house and saw this scene, Brother Hong pulled Rong Hua, the two sisters and brothers leaned together and whispered, Brother Hong kept saying, Rong Hua listened gently and quietly from the corner of his eyes.

It's rare to have a half-sister and brother relationship that is so good, especially Rong Hua, who has only been living in Tao Mansion for a long time.

The two always have a rare tacit understanding, as if they have some common secrets, and they make eye contact with each other, especially Rong Hua's understanding of Brother Hong, which is beyond his estimate.

"Master Hou."

Rong Hua heard Jinxiu's voice and turned his head, only then did Xue Mingrui come back.

Brother Hong put away his previous relaxed expression and stepped forward to salute Xue Mingrui.

Xue Mingrui sat down and cared about Brother Hong's schoolwork. Brother Hong replied a few words. Xue Mingrui nodded, and asked Mrs. Tao about the situation, and Brother Hong also told the truth.

Xue Mingrui was sitting precariously, from beginning to end, there was no smile on his face, Brother Hong's forehead gradually sweated, and the whole person became more and more restrained. Rong Hua interjected with a smile and said, "It's not early, you should go back early."

Brother Hong immediately breathed a sigh of relief, got up and respectfully bid farewell to Xue Mingrui.

Brother Hong went out, Rong Hua casually said to Xue Mingrui, "Brother Hong doesn't know what to think, he said that he was going to the military camp to practice." ”

Xue Mingrui took a sip of tea, his eyes narrowed, "Thirteen years old is not young." ”

Xue Mingrui should be able to hear the meaning of her words, right? But how can you say that. Rong Hua looked sideways, Xue Mingrui pursed his lips, as if he was not very happy, was it because of the matter of the third room?

didn't have time to think about it, Rong Hua asked, "How is the matter with the third master?" Has Hou Ye figured it out? ”

Xue Mingrui's face was slightly gloomy, "I'm afraid the matter of the third uncle is not easy to handle." ”

Rong Hua was stunned, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Xue Mingrui glanced at Rong Hua for a long time before he spoke, "The third uncle has raised an outer room outside. ”

Raising the outer room, it shouldn't be a bad thing, at most, I said it in front of the old lady, and took the outer room into the house.

Xue Mingrui said: "The outer room is a married woman. The other party came to the door and asked the third uncle for a thousand pieces of silver to break the matter, otherwise he would have to report to the official. ”

Rong Hua's eyes widened, how could there be such a thing.

Domineering the wife of the husband, it is a big scandal when this matter spreads, especially in a noble family like the Xue family, which pays great attention to reputation.

"The third uncle must not have known before."

Xue Mingrui chucked slightly, "I think so too." ”

But outsiders don't think so.

"What then? Hou Ye has to find a way. ”

Xue Mingrui raised his hand to comb Rong Hua's sideburns, "Now I can only use silver to stabilize people first, and then think of other ways, I will come back to discuss with you what to do." ”

This is obviously a game that has been set up a long time ago, otherwise there would not be today's result. It seems that the third uncle didn't write a book when he took a concubine, "That family is asking for money, and as long as it is profitable, they will not let go, for fear that others will know about it and use it for money." ”

Xue Mingrui said: "I have already made people stare at that family. ”

Rong Hua said: "Master Hou still has to ask the third uncle, after all, the third uncle knows this matter best," said his eyes flashed, "Just don't ask at home, otherwise it will be easy to be heard, if this matter spreads, it will not be easy for the third uncle to be a man in the house in the future." ”

Xue Mingrui's slender eyes looked at Rong Hua, "Grandmother still wants you to find a way to say it." ”

That's all I said.

Chunyao hurriedly entered the house, "The maid in the old lady's room said that the old lady's heart hurts. ”

Today I suddenly went on a business trip, I was on a long-distance bus, I got motion sickness, everyone went to dinner, and I just finished the code
