Chapter 1: The Root of the Bane

Since experiencing the unlucky scandal of the last time, I don't know if the mood of the old bustard's mother Liu Zhi'er has taken the impermanence of the world lightly, or if she really hates such a servile and face-pleasing life. simply didn't do it anymore, and simply handed over the front office business of the blue and white embroidery building to the big housekeeper Ma Fu and the popular top Qiuyue girl one by one, and was happy to be a person with a pure heart.

When she had nothing to do, Liu Zhi'er hid in the wing room in the back garden and had fun with Li Qiusheng, Dong Yanzhi, the little girl in Tsing Yi, Si Shui and Wu Feng. In this way, these old and young people are also full of emotion and leisure.

Far away from the noise and arrogance of the world, jumping out of the complicated five elements and dusty edge of the world, the ethereal and pure heart is also much cleaner, and the dusty heart can be washed and worried in time. Many materialistic desires in the world that have been contaminated with fame and fortune have also become clear and transparent in this period of pure and pure days. The distance between the heart and the heart seems to be sublimated at this moment.

This beautiful and picturesque life is also the quiet and sweet life that Liu Zhier, Dong Yanzhi, and Li Qiusheng, who have experienced mental and physical exhaustion for the rest of their lives, are the most urgently needed by these three people. This is like a wounded and lonely bird, always praying for a quick return to its warm and peaceful nest, away from all the visible and invisible re-injuries in the world.

But earthly things are often unpredictable and fantastical things that you can't expect. As the saying goes: there are unpredictable circumstances in the sky, and people have disasters. This is true at all, just take Li Qiusheng and Dong Yanzhi in the blue and white embroidery building in front of them, these two young people who fell in love with each other at first sight are very suitable.

On this day, Liu Zhier and Dong Yanzhi and Li Qiusheng were drinking tea and discussing in the garden of the back wing, visiting the garden and enjoying the flowers. It is the time when the begonia spring sleeps enough and the medicinal peony blooms. The little girl in Tsing Yi led the big housekeeper Ma Fu to walk in in a hurry, and Ma Fu saw Liu Zhi'er who was from the stone bench next to the pavilion hurriedly saluted and said: "Big boss, the matter of numbness has come to the door again." Liu Zhutou, a subordinate of Li Daguan, was making a fuss in front of the door of the Blue and White Embroidery Building at this time, and he had to see the big boss anyway. He was in such a hurry, so I was in a hurry to come into the backyard and report to the big boss. How to deal with it, please make it clear to the big boss. ”

Liu Zhi'er picked up the teacup, took a sip slowly, and then slowly asked: "Butler Ma, don't worry, speak slowly, we are all people who have experienced strong winds and waves, are you afraid of what ugly things will happen to him?" Whether it is a blessing or a curse, it cannot be avoided, and what should come is always coming. Why is Liu Zhutou so bold and comes to the gate of our house to make trouble again despite the three shen and five orders of Li Daguan? So what's going on? ”

"Where, where, which Liu Zhutou kept saying that he only wanted to see the big boss to speak clearly, and he also said wildly that he would take Miss Dong to the mansion of the big official Li to check it. The old man couldn't reason with him, so he waited outside the gate, and when he reported to the big boss, he came out to speak. Ma Fu said extremely carefully and uprightly, for fear that the excessive tone would provoke the rights and wrongs of Liu Zhier and Dong Yanzhi, two women who had just recovered from their illnesses, and then they would be blind and busy that could not be underestimated.

Dong Yanzhi heard Ma Fu talk about the story related to herself for a while, and hurriedly raised her ears and interjected: "Then Liu Zhutou really said that, and took me to the house for investigation?" Butler Marta, it can't be that you misheard Liu Zhutou's words, right? Ma Fu slowly replied with a wry smile: "Miss Dong, this old man thinks that he has not misheard a word and a half. As for the reason for taking Miss Dong to the government for investigation, the old man is unknown. Thinking about it, Miss Dong is also from an ordinary poor family, and she is not the son of an official eunuch, what background and identity are there that are worthy of Li Daguan's in-depth study? It is estimated that he just asked Miss Dong if there was any special relationship with Li Qiusheng. It's not going to be so long, and Daguan Li deliberately made things difficult for Miss Dong again. But please rest assured that no matter what happens, Ma Fu and the big boss will not abandon Miss Dong. As you said, the people in our blue and white embroidery building compound are all members of the family. Since they are all members of the family, they are indispensable even if they are alone. ”

Li Qiusheng hurriedly interjected beside him: "Yanzhi, don't worry. Li Daguan sent Liu Zhutou to fight at this time, I guess, most of them want to find out a little bit from you through side knocks, about the masked man in black who disappeared me. Or maybe the official of that family, Lao Tzu, sent someone down from above, and Li Daguan wanted to curry favor with Shangguan out of face, so he had to send someone to pick you up and go to his house to offer his eyebrows and invite pets. According to me, it's 100% your natural pure voice and empty and magical piano sound, which provokes right and wrong. ”

"Brother Qiusheng, don't make fun of me. Although I have such a natural good voice and know some of the six arts of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I am not a play that obediently sells and sings when I see people. Besides, my aunt won't allow me to do that, so why are you bothering to say these things that reveal people's scars? Dong Yanzhi refuted Li Qiusheng's words faintly, and then pulled her eyes to look at Liu Zhi'er, who was contemplative on the side.

"Alright, don't be noisy here. Let's go to the front door and see what's going on, right? Save the blind man here always touching the elephant, the public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law has the way. Besides, it is not easy to offend Li Daguanren, but I don't know what kind of catastrophe this flying disaster is, and what kind of dog skin plaster he sells in the gourd of Li Daguanren this time. Liu Zhi'er glanced at Dong Yanzhi, who was a little confused, and sighed, as if the grievances in her heart were accumulating again. She never understood that since Dong Yanzhi came to the courtyard of the Blue and White Embroidery Building, the disasters in her stomach have followed one after another. Even Li Qiusheng's hidden identity had to be revealed by the Marquis Geng, who should have been cut by a thousand cuts. When Liu Zhi'er thought about this, she stared at her, and her face that had been worn by wind and frost was immediately imprinted into a ravine. Who are we recruiting in this life, who is to provoke whom, accompany us to be careful to mix a bite of food on the tip of the knife, it is so difficult, there are many crises, and I can't help it.

On the master's chair in the main hall of the lobby of the front yard, Liu Zhutou was already arrogant, and he sat there with his feet on his feet.

When Liu Zhutou saw Liu Zhi'er and Ma Fu, Dong Yanzhi, Li Qiusheng and other personnel coming out of the backyard, he immediately bounced up from the master's chair, hugged his fists and saluted: "Mother Liu, how are you doing lately?" I really congratulate you on your court, Li Qiusheng, this kid returned uninvited, and we also saved a group of our subordinates from the pain of this labor and spared the difficulty of punishment by this Li Daguan. It is a great blessing, and on behalf of all the brothers, I am very grateful. ”

"Liu Zhutou, what do you have to explain to Daguan Li, if you have something to say, just say it, don't hide it, it's strange to hide people's hearts, hang people's appetites, old lady, I don't like to play this cat and mouse game, there is no match. It's best to cut through the mess quickly and sort out this messy trouble. We've had enough of what happened some time ago, and we're tired, so it's better to be quiet now. Liu Zhi'er waited for Liu Zhutou to finish speaking, and then quickly stacked these words like firecrackers. From Liu Zhutou, who swept a few more glances and was pretending to be profound, he was still triumphant, and the resentment in his heart flashed.

"Hmm, hmm" twice, Liu Zhutou said unhurriedly: "Li Daguan has spoken, and now that he has returned safely, the cause of the accident of Li Qiusheng's disappearance will not be investigated." As for the new girl Dong Yanzhi and the popular Qiuyue girl in your courtyard, Li Daguan wanted to secondment Liu Bustard's mother for two days and enter the Li Mansion to entertain the envoys sent by the capital for a while. After two days, someone will be sent to return it. I don't know what Liu Bustard's mother wants now? Liu Zhutou put on an unfathomable and mysterious look again, and looked at Liu Zhi'er who was still thinking on the side with cold eyes. That obscene and threatening look seemed to be the same as the ruthlessness of Nancheng Marquis Geng when he did evil, and there was not much difference between good intentions.

"Ha, ha, ha,。。。。。" A bleak and cold laughter suddenly swept through everyone's ears, crisp and poignant, bewitching and sultry. Everyone looked back together, and Dong Yanzhi was already standing aside with an angry face and yelled hatefully. "Liu Zhutou, please go back and bring a message to Li Daguan. Let's just say that although I, Dong Yanzhi, am a poor woman who is committed to the Qinglou, I am not the kind of master who makes a living by selling jokes and pleasing people. You have your way of being an official, and I have my principles of life. If he, the senior official, bends down to visit our blue and white embroidery building, we can treat him as a guest. If Li Daguan is bullying the world with his own official authority, I, Dong Yanzhi, would rather be broken than broken, and never bend my knees to welcome my aunt. If Liu Zhutou still can't hear what I'm saying clearly, I, Dong Yanzhi, can still say it again. If you understand what I said, please Liu Zhutou and leave quickly, I don't want to pay attention to seeing your face of eating people and not spitting out bones. ”

Liu Zhutou was stunned when Dong Yanzhi said so decisively, and his face was confused but at a loss. He really couldn't imagine that this seemingly weak little woman would easily give himself a resounding slap in front of himself and his brothers. Although it is not a real slap on his face, it is more shameful and painful than a real slap on his face. Liu Zhutou suddenly felt that his body was suddenly half shorter, and he couldn't talk to these people. couldn't help but look back at Liu Zhi'er, who was silent on the side, but Liu Zhi'er's face also looked indisputable, and coldly replied to Liu Zhu'er, who was looking at him in confusion, and the cold light radiating from his eyes made people shudder for a while.

But Liu Zhi'er was still embarrassed and said: "Liu Zhutou, you see that Dong Yanzhi has spoken, and my aunt doesn't have much to say." I'm sorry for you to bring the words to Li Daguan, and ask him to pack a lot of letters, Liu Zhi'er has thanked Liu Zhutou for his favor here. Liu Zhutou was helpless for a while, so he had to return the salute, his mouth buzzed a few times and wanted to say something, but Li Qiusheng on the side grabbed the topic.

Li Qiusheng shouted in a lively manner for a while: "Liu Zhutou, Dong Yanzhi has spoken so badly, you should also be interesting." Go back and spread the word, otherwise I, Li Qiusheng, will also open my mouth to scold your mother. As soon as Li Qiusheng's words came out, everyone burst into laughter, and Dong Yanzhi even interjected: "Brother Qiusheng, I haven't seen you for many days, can you also learn from your mother-in-law." You have learned the way that the country shrew scolded the street. Yours is the real thing. Li Qiusheng's face suddenly flashed crimson, blinked twice, and said in an astringent voice like a mosquito and fly: "Yes, yes, yes, I have learned all those scolding people, what can you do?" ”

The little girl in Tsing Yi suddenly poked out half of her head, shrugged her two watery eyes, and said with a sneer: "Then congratulations to Brother Qiusheng, you are officially included in the ranks of shrews in Liyang Town." ”
