Chapter 76: Farce
.. org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the reborn Gaomen pet daughter-in-law!
When the female dependents enter and exit, they usually go through the side door, and the people who come with them mostly enter and exit through the corner door.
Originally, the gossip spread in a small area during the banquet, but after a few side doors, it quickly spread in the dark, and the rumors flew out of the Li Mansion as if they had grown wings.
There are those who are silent and secretly shameless, and naturally there are those who are not afraid to mumble and wait to see the jokes of the Li Mansion.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, as soon as the banquet had passed the five flavors, Yang's mother found an excuse and invited Xie out of the flower hall in the inner courtyard where the guests were entertained.
Li Miao looked at the back of Xie Shi leaving, looked at the eyes that turned to her intentionally or unintentionally, as if they were nothing, and secretly glanced at Li Juan.
Li Juan looked sleepy and took Xia Yu and Dong Xue back to Qingfeng Courtyard first.
Here, Li Miao followed the housekeeper's mothers for a while during the banquet, and said that she was going to change clothes, and Li Juan also rushed back to Qingfeng Courtyard.
The women and grandmothers who were still eating and watching the play saw that several of the main protagonists had disappeared one after another, and they couldn't help but exchange glances tacitly, and they buzzed and talked about each other.
For a while, the people watching the play off the stage are a little more lively than the people singing on stage.
The main courtyard was very quiet, and as soon as Xie entered the upper room, he lowered his face and asked Yang's mother, "Have you inquired clearly?" ”
The rumors that came out of the Li Mansion, how could the Xie family only know after the people fell behind, but they didn't move, and privately sent Yang's mother to verify it clearly, so that they could hit it with one blow, saving the mud and water, and wasting her efforts in vain!
Mother Yang's face was pale, and she suppressed her voice and said, "It's all a ghost made by Mrs. Liu!" She bought the little maid who was in charge of clothes next to her aunt, and when she went out to the old man on Chinese New Year's Eve, she stuffed a pair of indigo knee pads for the old man. The old man met His Royal Highness King Qianwang at Donghua Gate, and he gave the knee pads to His Royal Highness King Qianwang.
The old man didn't take it to heart at all, where did he think that Mrs. Liu's mind was so vicious, she didn't care about ruining Miss Miao's reputation, and she wanted to stuff Miss Miao into the Qianwang Mansion as a concubine! The first few mothers-in-law who gossiped were all on duty at the door, and they all received the favor of Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu also boasted to them, saying that the family in the clan had a big business, and after the matter was completed, they arranged for their sons and nephews to go to the Li County clan to do things, which was really a big breath! ”
Pull the tiger skin of the old lady Liu as a banner!
Mother Yang grinded her teeth angrily, looked at Xie's face and said, "The little maids around the eldest aunt, the mothers-in-law who gossip, the slaves and maids have been secretly tied up and locked up in the firewood room, you see this...... Are you waiting for the master to come back and deal with it? ”
Li Zichang doesn't like indigo the most, he must have done a favor without looking at the knee pads, if he knew that it was from Li Miao's hand, where would he give the things in the boudoir to a foreign man!
Li Zichang and the Xie family respect each other like ice, just for the sake of his daughter-in-law, he will not do anything foolish as sending his niece to his son-in-law as a concubine!
Xiao Hanqian even dared to contradict Emperor Qiyang, who could handle it? What's more, it's just a niece in the next room!
Besides, with the status of the Li Mansion, why bother to slap yourself in the face, and there is no need to use others to add bargaining chips to the Li Mansion and Li Yingge!
Li Zichang was also deceived.
Mother Yang thought so, but Xie Shi was puzzled.
She remembered that in the carriage that day, Li Yingge only said that Li Miao came to visit at night and gave her and Li Yingge two pairs of knee pads, and the third pair of knee pads given to Li Zichang would never come out of thin air!
She thought again that after the family banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve, the big maid found the lazy little maid afterwards, and only then asked about Li Miao's appearance in the tea ear room, and the little maid could say, in addition to Li Miao, the little maid inadvertently turned back before leaving the main courtyard, and saw that Liu Pozi also sneaked into the ear room.
As soon as the two are connected, what else does Xie not understand.
Even if the knee pad is not Li Miao's mastermind, it can't be involved, Li Miao and Mrs. Liu, neither of them is clean.
Thinking of this, Xie Shi hooked a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, stretched out his well-maintained fingers, and stroked the dust that didn't exist at all on the cuffs.
What she cares about more is Xiao Hanqian's attitude.
When she entered the palace that day, although she didn't ask Xiao Hanqian and Li Yingge what they said in the wall, Li Yingge gave Xiao Hanqian the knee pads, but she knew it.
Just looking at Xiao Hanqian's maintenance of Li Yingge in every way, it can be seen that although he is young and flamboyant, he is not without a city government.
People who have a city government have unpredictable thoughts are one, and suspicious and worrying are two.
Similar to two pairs of indigo knee pads, such a close thing, how could Xiao Hanqian use it casually?
The fact that the two young ladies came to the Li Mansion is not a secret in Beijing.
If Xiao Hanqian found out the origin of the knee pads given by Li Zichang, why has there been no movement for so many days?
It is difficult to inquire about the affairs in the palace, but the gossip and rumors in the market can easily spread into the palace.
What is Xiao Hanqian's attitude towards this matter?
Xie Shi thought that Xiao Han was eighteen years old, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.
No matter what Xiao Hanqian thinks, she will take a salary from the bottom of the kettle and break the trick of Qingfeng Courtyard, so she will not be able to hinder anyone outside.
Xie Shi stretched his brows and chuckled, "You go and invite Li Miao and Li Juan out of the flower hall where the banquet is held, and 'send' them back to Qingfeng Courtyard, and personally help me take care of Qingfeng Courtyard." When the feast is over, I will send off the guests and go over. ”
It's just a few clowns jumping up and down, and it's not worth it for her to leave the hall full of guests and deal with this kind of rotten thing halfway.
As for the rumors made by Mrs. Liu, she has her own way to ask for it back a hundred times, and return it all to Qingfeng Yuan!
Xie looked as usual, and was surrounded by the big girls and returned to the flower hall.
Mother Yang, who had returned to the flower hall first, turned around and came out, greeted Xie Shi and whispered, "Not long after Madame left, Miss Miao and Miss Juan left the flower hall one after another, and there is no turning ...... at this time."
Xie raised his eyebrows noncommittally and motioned for Yang's mother to go and do her own errands.
Mother Yang found an excuse to leave the flower hall and go to Qingfeng Courtyard.
Seeing Xie smiling as usual, the guests present couldn't see anything wrong, and couldn't help but be suspicious.
There was no big movement near the Li Mansion when it was dismissed, and everyone was secretly disappointed, so they heard a mother-in-law come to report, "Father-in-law Wang of the Qianwang Mansion asks to see his wife." ”
Everyone suddenly perked up, and the buttocks that left the chairs were firmly glued back to them.
Who doesn't know that Xiao Hanqian stayed in the palace for the New Year, and at this time he specially sent the chief eunuch around him to visit, in addition to the rumors related to him, what else can he do?
I don't know if Xiao Hanqian is here to return the knee pads, or to ask for the little beauty?
It's a pity that Li Yingge and Li Miao were not there!
Everyone was like being beaten with chicken blood, and they didn't even care about the number of courtesies, and they didn't shy away from waiting to see what Wang Qu meant.
Xie couldn't open his mouth to drive people away, so he had to ask people to invite Wang Qu in.
Wang Qu smiled gently, and respectfully greeted Xie.
When everyone saw his attitude, they were inevitably disappointed.
I didn't want to turn around, after Wang Qu greeted him, he took out a small thing wrapped in silk cloth, and when he opened it, it was an indigo knee pad.
The dimming light in everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
Wang Qu seemed to be no one around, looking at Xie Shi still smiling gently, and said respectfully, "His Royal Highness King Qianwang heard about the rumors outside, so he sent his servants out of the palace, came to the door to clarify the rumors, and gave the Li Mansion a crime, so that outsiders did not have a door, and this gratuitous farce disturbed the peace of the little princess." ”
What does this mean?
Why did it become Wang Qu to make amends?
Everyone's eyes brushed towards Wang Qu.
