Chapter 276: Picking Locks
Mian Tao smiled and coped with a few words, and then asked Song Han to leave.
As soon as the cotton peach left, the noblewoman didn't ask anymore, and exchanged strange glances to each other.
Obviously, Song Han is looking at the girl in light pink clothes who was called away. But this girl in pale green clothes and speaking sharply and generously looks good.
Speaking of which, who is this Yue family? Why haven't you heard of it? These four sisters look good, their conduct is also good, and their speech and behavior are also clever. The eldest sister's husband's family is a carriage workshop, and the second sister's husband's family is the Peng family, a well-known family in the town......
Several women looked at each other, and their hearts were all fighting Xiao Jiujiu.
Mrs. Lu has only one daughter in the family and no son, so she doesn't mean that, and Mrs. Yuan's family is still young, so these two people only shrug at the other two ladies. The other two ladies, Mrs. Gu and Mrs. He, made the two of them shrug and moved a little thought, but they felt that it was too hasty to see only one side, so they only glared back at Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Yuan.
A few people looked at each other like this, back and forth, and the table was full of eyes.
Cherry was furious in her heart, and quietly stretched out her foot and kicked Mi Tao for a while. She's not here to eat, so she can't stay silent.
"A few ladies, I married the Peng family for the first time, and my mother's family has no mother's guidance, when everything is inevitably wrong, I hope that the ladies will give me a little guidance." Mi Tao picked up the cup knowingly, said a few words in a positive manner, and then saluted the whole table for a while, and then saluted one by one, five or six glasses of wine, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and his expression was as usual.
"The daughter-in-law of the Peng family has a good amount of alcohol." Mrs. Lu praised with a smile: "I heard that she is a heroine among women, but now when I see it, it is true!" ”
"But I can drink a few bowls of wine, and it makes Mrs. Lu laugh." Mi Tao is not in a hurry or dry, she smiled gently, her movements were elegant, and her voice was very soft: "As for the heroine among women, I am just straight, I can't see those filthy, unsightly things, I can't bear any dark things, I am a person who can say something, if I am offended by talking for a while, a few ladies can forgive it!" ”
Before these words fell, Cherry and Star Fruit looked at each other several times, what kind of madness did Er Tao have today, and he really learned to be a girl? Don't say it, it's like it! Cherry is secretly happy in her heart, only when the second sister is a violent person, straight to the heartless, but I didn't see that the second sister still has this ability, if so, today these ladies will remember her good going, turn around and mention it in front of Mrs. Peng, and no longer need to use words to shame the second sister.
"Well said! I just don't see things like that! If you know, you can't let it go in your heart! Mrs. Lu laughed: "The temperament is really similar to me!" It's a pity that I don't have a son in my family, if not, I will snatch you from Yu'an's hands! ”
"Hehehehe......" Everyone at the table laughed. Seeing the situation, the star fruit finally showed a comfortable smile, the second child finally has this ability, as long as she can attract the attention of these ladies, she doesn't have to worry anymore.
After another round of wine, Mi Tao's words were almost the same, and the table was a little silent. The ladies looked at each other and returned to the topic they had been talking about. Mrs. Lu touched Mi Tao's hand and winked with a smile: "Ah, this girl from the Yue family is really a good match, if I have a son, I must first grab your unmarried sister." If you don't do it again, you can ask someone else to snatch Luo! Regret it! ”
A few glances on the table couldn't help but shoot at the cherry.
Cherry was stared at in the hair, and it happened that the meal was about the same, so he lied to look for cotton peaches and ran away from the table.
The courtyard of the Gu family is very large, and the large courtyard is a small courtyard, but the decoration is very good. This small courtyard is particularly exquisite, and the craftsmen's intentions are shown everywhere. The hibiscus trees in the courtyard are all hung with masonry, there are no branches dancing in the sky, and almost all the branches and forks grow horizontally, so the shade of the trees almost covers most of the courtyard, which is a good place for summer banquets. The whole yard is in the shape of a gourd, the entrance is the gourd mouth, the table is the big belly of the gourd, and the small belly is a small pool. Walking along the pond to the courtyard gate, the path is paved with cobblestones.
Follow the path and go out of the small courtyard. Cherry just saw that the cotton peach was out of the yard and went to the left. She looked at the courtyard and turned to the left. Anyway, she didn't really come out to look for cotton peaches, she just had to avoid the eyes of those ladies. If she had known that the third sister and Song Han didn't need her to match, and the eyes of those ladies were eating people like that, she wouldn't have come.
Walked slowly forward for a while, and found that the road had to go far and did not seem to turn a corner, Cherry paused, and hesitated slightly, but don't walk around and get lost, but it will be a shame.
"But where are you looking?" Just as she was hesitating, a clear and loud voice came from behind her, just listening to the voice, full of sunshine and youthful atmosphere, it was about the same age as her.
Cherry turned to look, and sure enough, it was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, wearing a fine silk coat of lake blue brocade, the cuffs were the most emerging style of cuff embroidery, and the hem was very long, covering the boots. The wind blows gently from behind, carrying the smell of medicine. The young man smiled brightly, revealing a mouthful of neat white teeth, and when he saw her, his expression froze slightly.
"I ...... Not to go anywhere. Cherry curled her eyes and smiled.
Only then did the young man come back to his senses slightly, and raised his hand on the green tree beside him to hide his gaffe just now: "Yes...... Miss Yue, right? I'm Gu Jiaerlang, Gu Fengyun. Miss, but there's something urgent? When you came out just now, why didn't you call a girl ring to follow? I'm just passing through there, why don't I take you there?" ”
Did he think he was going to go to the toilet? Cherry smiled and waved her hand: "No hurry, no hurry, it's really okay to wander around here"
"Oh, oh, I was abrupt." Gu Fengyun scratched his ears embarrassedly, quietly glanced at the cherry, and said: "It's really not interesting inside, I don't like to drink, and what I say is just officialdom." ”
Cherry didn't know what to take, so she just smiled softly.
"Well, why don't I take you to the back garden? At this time, there are also persimmons and autumn apples to eat. ”
"No, I'm afraid that my eldest sister won't find me for a while, so I'm in a hurry." Cherry smiled and refused: "What is Young Master Gu going to do, let's go." ”
"Then, that ......" Gu Fengyun really couldn't find a topic, and was a little unwilling: "Then I'll go first?" ”
"Hmm. Go ahead. Cherry waved her hand.
Gu Fengyun nodded, raised his foot and took two steps, then turned his head sharply, blushing, and clutched the leaves of a green tree beside him in his hand: "But, can I ask the girl's name?" ”
"My name is Yue Cherry." Cherry couldn't help but smile, this boy is really cute and tight.
"I, my name is Gu Fengyun." The young man lowered his head and muttered this sentence softly, turned his head and walked away in a panic.
Gu Fengyun has already said it all over again. Is...... Cherry shook her head, turned around and was about to go back, but saw Mian Tao and Song Han coming towards her, and stopped at the gate of the small courtyard.
"Sakura, are you doing hemp?" Cotton peach raised her voice.
Cherry hurriedly walked forward: "Looking for you." I saw you turn left, how did you come from that side? ”
"Looking for me? But Ertao got into trouble again? Mian Tao's face sank.
"It's not...... It's nothing, impatient to stay inside. Cherry walked up to the two and stood still, "Where have you been?" Didn't you steal something good? ”
"We're talking about it." Song Han took over: "I'm going to stay here for another three or four days, thinking about why I have to go to your wine inn and sit down." Later, I wanted to go to Huaying Town to have a look, and I heard that the flowers there can bloom until winter. I asked your third sister, and said that she also wanted to go with her, Cherry, you can also go together, and then call Sister Star Fruit and Sister Mi Tao later. ”
"Hua Yingzhen?" I've heard of that place, it is a small town in Jingqing County, and it is said that there is a sea of flowers everywhere in the town, and the people who plant flowers and sell flowers are all over the street. She was about to go and see it, "Then of course I'm going to go!! ”
"Let's go, let's discuss the eldest sister and the second sister again." Mian Tao stepped forward to grab Cherry's hand and pulled her into the small courtyard, and Song Han followed behind.
As soon as Mian Tao returned to her place, the topic on the table turned to her again. Cotton peach is very handy and easy to deal with. At a quarter of the afternoon, the dinner table was withdrawn, and everyone talked for a while, and Mrs. Gu invited the daughters to play in the back garden of the Gu family, and the banquet was dispersed before the end of the afternoon.
made an appointment with Song Han to go to the inn on the second day, and the sisters got in the car and left the Gu Mansion and went straight to the street. When she arrived at the street, Mi Tao reluctantly got off the carriage, got into the carriage of the Peng family, and went back to Peng's house. The star fruit sisters turned around and headed straight towards the town.
The path was bumpy, but the star fruit was excited, and the cotton peach and Song Han left the table for a while, and chatted with the cherry waddling all the way. When the carriage went outside the courtyard, Cherry jumped out of the car and went to unlock the lock first, but saw that the big lock had been opened by someone and hung obliquely on the door knocker, the door was also half open, and there were obvious traces of being picked on the lock and the crack of the door.
"I'm going to stay at home tonight, and I'll go back to town tomorrow." The star fruit was supported by Miao Chengye, and he got out of the car while talking, and saw that Cherry was stunned there, and said, "Ying'er, open the door quickly, what's wrong?" As soon as she finished speaking, she also saw the door and lock that had been forcibly opened, and her mouth opened wide.
"Eldest sister~~" At this time, a cheerful voice came from afar, it was Walnut who came back from school with a book basket on her back, she followed Zhou Muze, with a stack of rice paper in her hand, it seemed that there was nowhere to go, so she went to pick up Walnut and go to school.
Cherry was on guard, not Walnut, not Zhou Muze, who would open the door of his house? Culprits? Daytime, so daring!! What about people? Is it still in there?
