Chapter 880: Restless Mother and Daughter
Now, in the courtyard it is the same as in the past when Mama Zhang and the others did not come, only Qiu Ning, Xia Cao'er, Yuejia, and Qiu Ju are left. Because they have been staying for a long time, it is much easier for everyone to get along. Don't worry about this, worry about that.
Duan Qingming came back, Xia Cao'er only said hello, and took Qiu Ju to continue to be busy in the house. Yuejia was walking out of the house with the freshly brewed tea. Everything is exactly the same as before! Without the reminders of Mama Zhang, and without the scolding of Mama Lin, the whole yard seemed quiet and warm, and everyone was smiling!
Qiu Ning stood in front of Duan Qingming, talking about everything that happened today, her face was red from the cold, and even her hands were a little swollen.
Yuejia put the tray on the stone table in front of Duan Qingming and poured a cup of steaming tea. It's cold, and the air is full of fog. Yuejia brought the tea over, and the curling heat was blowing on her fingertips, as if even her body was contaminated with a slight heat! Duan Qingming took it, held the tea cup in his hand, took a sip, and felt warm in his heart. She looked at Qiu Ning and said, "Qiu Ning, you really worked hard today!" Warm up your stomach with a cup of hot tea! ”
When Qiu Ning heard this, he shook his head embarrassedly and said, "No, slaves and maids are not hard! ”
Yuejia listened, quickly poured a cup of tea for Qiu Ning, stuffed it into her hand, and said: "Sister Qiu Ning, drink a cup of tea to warm your stomach, this winter, be careful, don't freeze!" ”
Qiu Ning took the tea from Yuejia and thanked him, and then stood aside with the teacup in his hand and began to drink tea in small sips!
Duan Qingming pointed to the stone bench covered with a mat in front of him and said, "Sit down and drink, where is there anyone standing to drink tea?" ”
Qiu Ning smiled "hehe", and then sat half of his body on the stone bench covered with cushions! Started drinking tea again in small sips!
Duan Qingming also drank tea slowly, warming her stiff body, and did not speak. Yuejia was waiting on the side, helping Duan Qingming and Qiu Ning add tea or something from time to time, and for a while, the small pavilion was quiet!
Qiu Ning's eyes were always a little strange, she looked at Duan Qingming, as if she wanted to say something, but finally stopped talking!
Duan Qingming noticed it, she smiled and said: "It's good whether it's hard or not, it's so cold this weather, Qiu Ning, you've been running outside for a day, after drinking this cup of tea, let's go back and rest!" ”
Tyunine still sat still. She tilted her head and looked at the cup in her hand, as if she was thinking about something, and she didn't even listen to Duan Qingming's words. It wasn't until Duan Qingming put down the teacup and was about to get up to leave that Qiu Ning suddenly said, "Miss, do you know who the slave saw today?" ”
Duan Qingming said in surprise, "Who did you see?" ”
Sensitive for a moment, Duan Qingming intuitively felt that the person Qiu Ning saw must not be from this mansion, at least, it must not be the person who is now on an errand in this mansion, because if it were, Qiu Ning's eyes would not be so strange!
Sure enough, Qiu Ning thought about it before she said cautiously: "Miss Hui's words, the slave maid saw Sister Gui today!" ”
Sister Gui?
Duan Qingming didn't understand which Sister Gui for a while!
Qiu Ning said, "Miss, have you forgotten? It's the second-class girl next to Aunt Liu, Sister Gui! ”
At this time, Duan Qingming remembered that there was really a girl named Gui'er beside Liu Rong. The girl named Gui'er has a good heart, and she is not too embarrassed by anyone, only because Liu Rong is kind to her mother, so she was ordered to wait. Duan Qingming had also seen her countless times, and every time, she stood there quietly without saying a word!
It's just that Liu Rong is not in Duanfu now, but moved to Zhuangzi in the countryside, and I heard that this Gui'er also followed the waiter, but now, how can Qiu Ning say that she saw her in a good manner?
Qiu Ning simply put down the teacup in her hand and said to Duan Qingming: "Miss, when the slave maid returned home today, I saw a person walking out in a hurry, because of the head down, I almost bumped into the slave maid's body, and the slave maid looked at it, it turned out to be Sister Gui!" ”
Duan Qingming already understood a little bit in her heart. She said: "Didn't that Gui'er go to Zhuangzi with Aunt Liu?" This Aunt Liu can't go back to the house casually, this Gui'er, why did she come back again? ”
Qiu Ning said: "Yes, the slave maid also felt strange, so I said hello to her." Asked her if she came back with Aunt Liu. But what I didn't expect was that as soon as Sister Gui saw the slave, she turned around and left, as if someone was chasing her behind her! ”
Duan Qingming pondered for a moment and said, "So, do you know what she came back for?" ”
Qiu Ning shook her head, she thought about it and said, "Later, the slave maid inquired and heard that as soon as Sister Gui came back, she went to the courtyard of the second lady. Then he stopped for a long time before leaving. When the slave touched her, it was just when she was ready to leave! ”
What kind of Gui'er was originally ordered to come back to see Duan Yulan? So, did Liu Rong know about Duan Yulan's injuries? Or is there something you want Duan Yulan to do?
Duan Qingming said slowly: "It seems that this Aunt Liu lives too comfortably in the countryside. This time, I don't know what storms I remembered again? ”
The Zhuangzi where Liu Rong went was on the outskirts of the capital. Although it is not far from Duan's mansion, it is the dowry of Mrs. Ding Rou. Up and down, all of them are Ding Rou's old people, and there are people who have been treated harshly by Liu Rong. Therefore, it is conceivable what Liu Rong's life will be. What's more, the people there can watch Liu Rong and don't let her get into trouble. But now, this Gui'er actually ran back again, I don't know what Liu Rong wants to do?
What Liu Rong wanted to do, Duan Qingming was not too worried. After all, the current hostess of the Duan Mansion is Du Qingluan. There is no half-dime relationship with Liu Rong, even if Liu Rong comes back, it will have no effect. However, what does this Liu Rong mean by letting people come back to find Duan Yulan? Could it be that she wants Duan Yulan to help her?
If Liu Rong is to care about Duan Yulan, Duan Qingming doesn't know when the mother-daughter relationship between Liu Rong and Duan Yulan has become so close!
While talking, someone suddenly called Yuejia's name outside the courtyard gate.
Yuejia hurriedly responded, said hello to Qiu Ning, put down the teapot in her hand, and walked out of the courtyard door to see, it turned out to be the sprinkler girl named Dong'er.
The girl was only twelve or thirteen years old, and she looked like a tiger, and when she saw Duan Qingming, she seemed a little restrained. Yuejia patted the girl's hand and signaled her not to be afraid. The girl smiled innocently, saluted Duan Qingming, and pulled Yuejia to the side to whisper!
Yuejia and Dong'er muttered for a long time before saying goodbye. Yuejia sent Dong'er out again, and then turned back. When Yuejia saw Duan Qingming again, she suddenly said with a serious expression: "Miss, just now Dong'er told the slave maid that Aunt Liu asked the second lady to help her deliver a letter to the master......
Duan Qingming's face sank suddenly!
Here, Duan Yulan's matter is not over, what does Liu Rong want to turn over here? Counting the days, Liu Rong has only been to Zhuangzi for a few days, and now she is starting to be restless again?
It seems that Liu Rong and Duan Yulan, the mother and daughter, are really haunted. This whole day, if you don't make something, you are really unwilling to feel uncomfortable!
It's just that they bumped into Duan Qingming's body this time, and Duan Qingming will definitely scatter Liu Rong's soul, and then, she will no longer have a way to gather......
Thinking of this, Duan Qingming said coldly: "Qiu Ning, didn't Duan Yulan hide this matter from Aunt Liu by all means...... Now, you go, and tell Aunt Liu secretly, just say that Duan Yulan was injured, and now she has half a life left. If she still has a conscience, tell her to come back and see her daughter soon! ”
After a slight pause, Duan Qingming said again: "Do you remember to add...... Her injuries were most likely from the beating of the club...... Remember, don't paint it too clearly. To say half to leave half, you know? ”
Sometimes, it's too clear, and there's no mystery about it. But if you say that you keep half and keep half of the mystery, it will drive people crazy!
Now, Liu Rong is being grounded, if she sneaks out of the Zhuangzi, it is already a big crime, if she runs back to the mansion to make trouble, then the crime will be added to the crime.
What's more, if Duan Qingming did this, she wouldn't have to come forward herself, and she would be able to make it clear that Duan Yulan was beaten and injured in bed!
Now, Duan Qingming still doesn't know about Duan Yulan's entry into the palace to find Princess Jinxiu, if she knows, I'm afraid she will really not be so polite to Duan Yulan!
Because, the current Duan Mansion is no longer as good as it used to be. Although the glory is infinite on the surface, if you take one wrong step, you will be doomed. Originally, dealing with Princess Jinxiu and Yan Lingjue had exhausted all of Duan Qingming's strength, and Duan Yulan and Liu Rong dared to find trouble at this juncture, which was simply asking for their own death!
In this way, Duan Qingming made up her mind! She is no longer killing two birds with one stone, but removing all the troubles at once!
Qiu Ning and Yue Jia are both girls who were brought out by Duan Qingming, and they are already handy and comfortable in dealing with all kinds of things. The two looked at each other, and then went down separately to prepare. And Duan Qingming entered the house, changed into a set of clothes, and prepared to go to see Du Qingluan!
Since Du Qingluan became pregnant, her temperament has gradually become very quiet, and on weekdays, if there is nothing to do, she is already at home!
She and Duan Zheng are not young anymore, and they are the first child. In addition, the two have experienced too many ups and downs, and they both yearn for a comfortable life.
