Chapter 69 [Drinking Tea and Eating]
"Hmph," Yuqi'er snorted coldly, "Justice for them?" I don't have the leisure to do that, but it's none of my business. ”
"Okay, I won't talk about these old things," Bai Yiyi said with a smile, "Come, come, come, sit down and play a game with me, my sister doesn't know this, first, we sisters will catch up with the old days, and second, let my sister come to study." ”
After that, let the maid with him still take the chess pieces from last time and put them on the table, Yuqier is good at this, she hasn't played with people for a long time, and when she saw the chess pieces coming up, she was itchy and unbearable, so she didn't shirk anymore, sat down opposite Bai Yiyi, and played against her.
Ye Junyi sat down with Bai Yiyi, watched for a while, she was a layman, and she was really not interested in this Dao, seeing that these two people were engrossed in killing, she felt very bored, and yawned several times.
"Oh, that's right," Ye Junyi instructed Chunlan, "Chunlan, don't I still have some Dongting Mountain Biluo Spring there, you go and get it and soak a pot." ”
When Chunlan heard this, she took out the tea leaves and brewed them, Ye Junyi took the tea just now and said, "I'll just drink this chrysanthemum tea, and replace it for my aunt and cousin." ”
This Yuqi'er and Bai Yiyi were able to kill heartily, thinking about how to settle down, and drank the tea, I didn't care too much about what tea was, but now I changed to Dongting Mountain Biluochun, and I felt that I had my own taste, so I picked up the tea and drank it one after another.
"Sister, what time is it?" Bai Yiyi asked.
Ye Junyi looked at the hourglass and said, "Youshi, you go on, let's have dinner here with me, the one I brought from my mother's house is the best at cooking." At noon, I returned to me, whether to make matsutake stewed wild goose meat for dinner, saying that this dish is the most suitable for women to eat, nourishing yin and nourishing the kidneys. ”
"No," Yuqi'er tossed the chess pieces and said, "I'm leaving." ”
"This can't be done," Bai Yiyi took her hand and said, "I haven't won a game today, so I'll come back if I don't accept it." Since my sister sincerely left you and me to eat, you can sit down with peace of mind. ”
Yuqi'er was forcibly pulled by her, so she had to sit down again and continue to play against her.
Seeing this, Ye Junyi went out and ordered the kitchen to cook more meals. When he returned to the house, he said to the two: "Mama Yu said that the goose meat should be stewed for a while this day, and the dinner may be late, so you should use some snacks first." ”
"I don't like to eat these the most," Bai Yiyi said, "I heard that Jiangnan paid tribute to some pestles, didn't the palace send some of them?" I tasted one yesterday at my aunt's and it tasted excellent. Sister, if you have some here, then take some out to satisfy our hunger. ”
This is not the season to go out of the pistol, and those farmers have somehow made some and paid tribute. The day before yesterday, the palace did send some, and Ye Junyi's stomach and intestines were not very good, so he left it there and forgot about it. At this time, after listening to Bai Yiyi's words, Fang Yu remembered, and quickly asked Chunlan to take it out, wash it and present it to the two of them.
This pestle was out of season, of course, it was not as delicious as the season, Bai Yiyi took a bite, and thought it was very sour, so he put it aside. The jade Qi'er seemed to like it very much, and used two in a row.
Although these two people live in the Yasukuni Marquis Mansion together, they have rarely interacted with each other for many years, and they are masters of the game.
The wild goose meat fruit made by Mama Yu is delicious, and the soup is even more memorable, although the three of them are not very hungry people, each of them ate several pieces of wild goose meat, and Chunlan each served a big bowl of soup, and they all drank it.
After the three of them finished eating, Yuqier got up and said goodbye and went back. Bai Yiyi also saw that the sky was already dark, and watched Yuqi'er walk out, so she said goodbye.
Ye Junyi sent her out again.
"Sister," when she was about to leave the hospital, Bai Yiyi looked like she wanted to speak and stopped, "Recently, my sister has heard some bad rumors, and I don't know if I should tell you about it." ”
"You and my sister, there is something that is not easy to say," Ye Junyi said with a smile, "Sister is just what she says." ”
"Well," Bai Yiyi thought for a while before speaking, "At lunch today, Mama Cai told me that it was rumored in the house that you had hidden a man in the guest room last night, and said that your cousin had a big temper and beat all the maids in your room, what is the matter?" ”
"Well," Ye Junyi said, "Last night, Aunt Zeng's brother Commander Zeng somehow fainted in our house, and I came back from dinner at my mother's, and I happened to see him, so I sent him to the guest room for treatment." The master lost his temper because he was in a hurry, and scolded Qiu Ju and Juan Xiu a few words. It's just such a rumor, but where did Mama Cai hear it? ”
"I heard that there are rumors in the house," Bai Yiyi said, "In the middle of the night, the front door and the back door go in and out a few times, can you not provoke people to speculate." Well, it's Zeng Gang, who can hurt him if he is such a powerful person? ”
"My sister also recognizes this person?" Ye Junyi asked.
"Of course, I know, I think he studied with us in the Guozijian at the beginning, and later served the master together. He had just followed the master to see the alchemy furnace before. One day, the master took Qi'er to check the Dan furnace, and he saw that Qi'er was crazy, and since then, as long as Qi'er is there, he will drill there, and we often make fun of him. This Zeng was just good at socializing, and he had a few dog friends and fox friends, and he was extremely discordant with his cousin at that time, and he often found something to fight and quarrel with his cousin. “
Ye Junyi listened and smiled faintly: "With his little prefect's son, dare to go against the master?" I'm afraid that he was instigated by someone to go against the master. But these seem to be old things, the master accepted his sister as an aunt, and now it is a family, the master is very important to him, and he is also very loyal to the master. ”
"Oh?" Bai Yiyi was a little embarrassed when she heard this, "I didn't have a deep relationship with her back then, and I don't know if anyone instigated and instigated her." Okay, it's getting late, so I won't make small talk with you, I'll come back to you when I'm free that day. ”
"Sister, let's go." Ye Junyi saw her off, and seeing that she had gone a little far, Fang turned around and went back to the inner room, and saw that only Chunlan and Qingyu were cut off beside him, Fang is face was solemn and said: "Qingyu, you quickly find a reliable and neat person to follow behind the white girl, see if she has returned to the house, or where she has gone, and whether she has gone to see anyone." ”
Qingyu listened to the answer, and quickly turned around to arrange people.
"Chunlan, bring me the new clothes that Aunt Yu just made for my grandfather."
Chunlan listened and took the bag to Ye Junyi. She opened her bag and saw that there was a dress there, but it was a rag that had been cut into pieces, neatly stacked. Ye Junyi put these cloths on the bed and spliced them, which happened to be a complete cloth, but there was not even a corner missing.
"What does this jade mean?" Chunlan looked at the side and asked strangely.
"She wants to tell me that someone blames her for everything that happened in the house," Ye Junyi said with some annoyance, "Zeng's sachet is made of this kind of fabric, and that person is very familiar with Yuqi'er, and even the old lady gave her a rare piece of fabric, and she also knows it." This Yuqi'er is not a vegetarian, and when she saw me search for this sachet on Zeng's body that day, she knew that she couldn't get rid of it, so she kept an eye on it, and her clothes were not made. ”
"Oh," Chunlan nodded as if she didn't understand, "The master's clothes are not made, doesn't the old lady blame her?" ”
Ye Junyi glanced at her, wrapped those rags into a ball, wrapped them, handed them over and said, "Deal with these things, don't let people see them, and don't mention them to others, you know?" ”
"Oh, yes," Chunlan took it, thought for a moment, and asked again, "Sister Qiu Ju and Mama Liu can't talk about it?" ”
"Chunlan," Ye Junyi put her shoulder on her and asked solemnly, "You often play with them, especially Qiu Ju, do you think there are some things you can tell them?" ”
Chunlan heard this, lowered her head and whispered: "Slave maid, slave maid thinks it's better not to talk about it, before, in the past, Sister Qiu Ju and the eldest lady were very close, and Mama Liu was also, and was also a person next to the eldest wife." ”
Ye Junyi listened, his eyes were full of water, he bit his lower lip, turned around and tried his face, and Fang is said again: "After Qiu Ju and us came to the Xu Mansion, there was no contact with the eldest lady." ”
"No, I don't know," Chunlan said in a low voice, "but not long after we came to the mansion, the slave maid once saw her talking mysteriously with a grandmother in the Xu Mansion in the dark for a long time, and later, I saw this old lady beside Aunt Yin. ”
"Is it Aunt Yin's nurse?"
"Hmm." Chunlan replied affirmatively, "Yes, the slave maid was very far away from them at that time, although I couldn't hear what they were talking about, but at that time, the slave and maid saw that they had been talking for a long time, and felt strange in their hearts, so they stood and looked carefully, and the mother suddenly turned sideways, and the slave saw a big black flesh mole on the corner of her mouth. The last time Aunt Yin came to the lady's house to say goodbye, the slave saw a grandmother following her, and the flesh mole on the corner of her mouth was the same as what she saw that day. ”
"I know," Ye Junyi said, "I will ask her personally, and you don't have to talk to her about this, and don't be estranged from her, so as not to wronged her and let Hao have a gap with our master and servant." ”
Chunlan answered yes, took the bag of rags and walked out.
The people sent out by Qingyu to follow Bai Yiyi came back not long after, and Ye Junyi said that Bai Yiyi went directly back to her own yard, but the maid who went with her halfway went to the old lady's side, and Bai Yiyi could vaguely hear her telling her to go to the old lady to get something from a distance.
Ye Junyi listened, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, Bai Yiyi kindly reminded himself that Fang had repeatedly mentioned the events of the year, and he was too suspicious. Knowing that he was not mistaken, Bai Yiyi put his heart down, and asked the Luping and Comfrey sisters to prepare paper and ink to practice calligraphy as usual. I wrote a word just now, but I remembered that I had been spending the night like this these days, just to wait for Xu Ziqian to come back, but tonight ......
