Chapter 56: Connected
Ayu didn't pour out the truth.
Ayana said: "That's my family's family affair, and I have nothing to do with my husband." Since my family affairs are not easy for the second master to know. It's not a very nice thing to look at. ”
Zhuang Pu had to respond, so it was not good to ask again. After a few more words of appeasement to Ayu, Zhuang Pu said goodbye and went out.
After all, I didn't ask the answer I wanted.
In the afternoon, Zhuang Pu sent people out to inquire about the foreign teaching case, wanting to find out those people through this path, so as to rescue Mr. Guan. In the evening, the person sent to reply that the foreign teacher was investigating the case, and that the eldest master was running for this matter, and now the eldest master was about to return to Kyoto.
After listening to this, Zhuang Pu scolded the person who replied, and he didn't hear the business he called to inquire, but asked the master on his own. The next person saw that Zhuang Pu was angry, so he said: "Why doesn't the second master find the young master in the few mansions outside, and Bei Ziye, but also ask those who are walking with swords and guns, isn't the second master also close to them on weekdays?" ”
Why didn't these Zhuang Pu think of it? I thought about it but didn't know how to ask, after all, it involved the big case at hand, and it was very related, and I accidentally set myself on fire and connected it to the house. In this state of mind, his mother thinks of him as simple, but in the field he has ideas and scheming.
In this way, Zhuang Pu said in the tone of his eldest sister: "What do you want to do with the dog legs that you feed for nothing!" ”
The subordinates knew that the second master had a temper, but he didn't hold a grudge, just like he farted. Zhuang Pu had no choice but to think of other methods.
Next.
Zhuang Pu got up early in the morning, went to the hall to listen to his father's training, and did not eat breakfast after the training, and led the servant and the rich boy to leave the house in a hurry. When he came back from outside, Xianglian told him that the girl from Jinshu was here, and everyone gathered in Jinghua to thank him. Zhuang Pu didn't bother to inquire. Xianglian thought in her heart that Zhuang Pu and Jinshu would have to become husband and wife sooner or later, and she would serve by her own or left and right. So this time I want to go over and stutter.
Xianglian was about to go out, Zhuang Pu summoned her back, and instructed: "You go to Jinghua Xie to ask Jinshu, see how early and late she leaves, and send someone to reply to me when she leaves, I have something to say to her alone." ”
When Xianglian heard this, how could she think about other places, isn't it just a matter of men and women? She blushed with a smile and said she knew.
Zhuang Pu didn't explain, pointed at Xianglian fiercely, and watched her out. Here, Zhuang Pu suddenly wanted to leave Jinshu to speak, but it was actually Mr. Guan, but it was not Jinshu that her father had an official position, and his father came to the house to apologize that night, so he happened to discuss with her and asked her to help inquire.
After all, the relationship between Zhuang Pu and Jinshu is extraordinary, and the two of them can say many things that can't be said outside.
After that, Xianglian came to the mirror to thank her, and she had more plans than before. She entered the courtyard of Zhongfu, and there were girls in front of her and behind her who went to Jinghua with snacks.
She thought: There are still a lot of people!
Because she saw Mei'er alone next to the pillar under the corridor, Xianglian didn't like to take care of her face, so she slowly walked up the steps and greeted: "They are lively over there, why don't you go?" ”
The corners of Mei'er's mouth lifted slightly, as if she was smiling, and then raised her slender jade finger and nodded her nose, "Have I been idle here?" How can you have such a good life. ”
Xianglian pursed her lips and smiled, wanting to reach out and pinch her mouth.
Mei'er took Xianglian's hand, and then went to a secluded place on the side, and whispered: "Miss Jin is here, I know you are here to slap her!" You don't have to admit it! I have to tell you that someone went before you, and carefully followed the mantis catching cicadas and yellow finch. ”
Xianglian has an excellent relationship with several big girls in the middle government, and she speaks so openly. Everyone knew in their hearts that the second master of Xifu was going to take over the house in the future, and Xianglian was the first person. I wanted to assign Mei'er to serve the second master in the past, but this girl was arrogant, first of all, she was loyal only to the old lady, and then Zhuang Pu had a strange temperament. After all, he was young at that time, and he didn't understand too many truths, so he had Xianglian to serve and have such a good future.
Although the house didn't say anything about it, everyone in the girl group acquiesced. Therefore, for Xianglian, everyone respects a little, and in the deepest terms, it is not all because the second master can keep her, but also because her own temperament is popular. More on that later.
Xianglian listened to Mei'er's words, and there were some pimples in her heart, so she didn't show it, but smiled: "You girl with a knife mouth, you don't spare people all day long, and you don't even spare yourself." What have you done to your bones? ”
Xianglian's words did not stop, and Mei'er's eyes were slightly red.
Mei'er said: "Good sister, you care about me here." When the weather is cold and the people are cold, who is looking forward to whom? I see that my sister loves me, I mean to tell you, don't be inappropriate. ”
Xianglian held Mei'er's hand and patted it gently: "Hugh is talking nonsense, it's all good." ”
Mei'er wiped her eyes and said with a smile: "When I didn't say this, now I make it clear that there are people from several provinces who are courteous." Everything is thoughtful, and it doesn't leak! Sister is not guarded, don't be the kind of uncle in the future. ”
Xianglian shook and couldn't help asking: "You mean mirror flower thank ......"
Mei'er hurriedly covered Xianglian's mouth, and then pulled it into the dark and said, "They? My sister, how can you? Who wanted to go to Xifu the most? ”
There is a reason for this, two of the eight girls wanted to go. As for who it is, Mei'er clicked it, and Xianglian naturally knew it in her heart. At this moment, it was no longer mentioned, Xianglian nodded.
At the end, Xianglian said: "Otherwise, let's go over and have a look." ”
Mei'er stroked the gesture, slid past Xianglian's side, and said, "The old lady said that the tenth day of the new year is a good day, and we will discuss this matter when the eldest master comes back." Privately, let me catch up with mandarin duck embroidery, a full sixteen pairs, where to be free. There you go! ”
The tenth day of the first month that Mei'er said was the happy event of Zhuang Wei and Huiyuan. Mei'er finished her words and left.
So, Xianglian repacked her mood and entered the courtyard gate of the mirror.
When I entered the courtyard, I heard the laughter of a room.
First, I heard Ayu's voice say: "If you say spicy, I don't think it can be compared to the place called Shuinan on the way we came first, and the spicy food is many times spicier than that eaten in Shudi." When you go to the border of northern Hanbei, it is slightly better, and then you come to Kyoto, and it is not spicy. I'm used to eating, but our husband is not spicy or happy, and you know that his body should really be avoided, but he doesn't listen to me. ”
Zhuang Xuan's voice replied with a smile: "Then why did you cook some boiled dishes in Loutaiyue last time, and a few of them said it was delicious." ”
Zhuang Yudi said in a sneering voice: "It's delicious, the third brother said that it was bland, and the old lady praised it for doing it well." The second sister always picks bad ones, she laughs at people and is not kind enough! ”
When Xianglian heard this, she thought that Zhuang Qi didn't know what kind of face Zhuang Yu had at the moment. When the curtain was lifted, a few little girls stood outside the door, and when they saw Xianglian coming, they all signaled courtesy. Xianglian went in and happened to see Zhu'er sitting next to her with one hand on Jinshu's arm.
And Jin Shuxiao said to Zhuang Xuan: "The second girl is not caring for the poor girl, and she is unforgiving. ”
Zhuang Xuan was strongly supported, and immediately smiled and saluted Jinshu.
Zhuang Yu didn't follow: "Ouch, where can Sister Jin go?" In the future, I will find my second brother to take revenge. ”
Jin Shu said: "You are becoming more and more shameless! This son has a grudge against me, what is the reason for looking for your second brother. It is said that there is a debtor and a debtor, you are not comfortable in your heart, if you want to kill, you have to scrape and let the horse come, I am afraid that you will not succeed! ”
The crowd laughed.
At that time, Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Ying saw Xianglian coming, and hurriedly said, "Xianglian is here." ”
Zhuang Xuan hurriedly got up, timidly moved the stool, and quipped: "Say Cao Cao Cao will arrive!" Come, come, I will serve and sit. ”
Xianglian was embarrassed, and hurriedly went to stop Zhuang Xuan, lifted the chair by herself, and the girl behind hurriedly came to help. Waiting to sit down, Xianglian blushed and said, "Say something and pull me again." ”
Zhuang Qi said: "Take care of him!" Just think about it. If you want to get to the bottom of it, you ask the five girls, and then ask the Jin girl. ”
Jin Shu slapped Zhuang Qian with one hand and said, "Just now I was still looking at you, and it was in vain." He made fun of me again. ”
Xianglian saw Yu Qi sitting on the kang and said quietly, so she said, "How is the girl?" ”
Yu Qi smiled: "Okay." Thanks to the jade girl's skillful hand. ”
Xianglian said: "No, our second master said that he was instructed by Miss Yu to drink ginger soup to be fine." Not to mention, the jade girl is a female Hua Tuo, her means are extremely clever, and she is even more likeable. ”
Zhuang Yu laughed and said, "Oh, my God, this mouth is one by one." Come on, I'm not going to say a word about it. ”
Because of this, the sisters got up and teased Zhuang Yu for a while. After the laughter stopped, everyone turned to Dongfu again.
It was Zhuang Qian who asked, and she said, "I heard that the eldest master is back, can the fourth sister prepare for the house?" ”
The fourth girl, Zhuang Yu, was stunned suddenly, and turned her head to her side inexplicably.
Therefore, Zhuang Xuan asked Zhu'er about something: "Has the old lady ever set a date?" ”
Zhu'er was also stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "What day?" ”
Xianglian knew that Zhuang Qi was talking about the marriage between Zhuang Xuan and Huiyuan, but seeing that Zhu'er didn't tell the truth, she knew that it was even more difficult to participate, so she only covered her mouth and smiled.
Yu Qi also understood in his heart, so he raised his eyebrows to look at Huiyuan who was standing on the side, Huiyuan was interested, and blushed for a while.
Yu Qi said: "The tea is a little cold, and Sister Xianglian hasn't served tea for such a while." Huiyuan, you and Sanxi go to the hot and come back. ”
Huiyuan was empty, and hurriedly took the pot out.
Waiting for Huiyuan to go out, Zhuang Xuan took the lead and hurriedly let out laughter.
Zhuang Qi said to Yu Qi: "Sister, she is still embarrassed. ”
Yu Qi smiled: "The second sister likes to make fun of people. The second sister might as well laugh at me, make me happy and happy, and laugh at what she does. ”
Zhuang Qi said: "In this house, there are two or three masters. You say that those of us who are rushing out don't take advantage of this time to talk about it, and dare to say it in the future? ”
Zhuang Yu praised: "What the second sister said is very true. ”
Zhuang Yu pointed at Zhuang Yu and said, "The fifth sister is young and not ashamed. If you don't ask what the second sister said, you can participate in the words. ”
Zhuang Yu said: "The second sister is not wrong! Hooked his eyes, pointed to Jinshu, then pointed to Xianglian, and then pointed to the direction of Huiyuan outside, and immediately smiled.
Yu Qi was amused and laughed, and hurriedly said, "Who did you listen to?" What day? Why didn't I hear that? ”
In the final analysis, Yu Qi is concerned about Huiyuan's affairs, and to be honest, since the date has been set, it is better to give herself a word, after all, Huiyuan comes in with her, and she is her relative.
Think about it, Yu Qi is inexplicably sad, the people in this house are too blind, and they really don't take themselves seriously. If you think about it again, what is your identity? I hurt for myself once, and I hurt for Huiyuan.
Zhuang Xuan smiled: "I thought you knew the light and I didn't know, so let me tell you, someone told me about the date." The 10th day of the first month. The eldest lord came back and nodded, and he could do it. Others are on the way! The eldest sister knows best, doesn't the fourth sister know? I don't believe it! ”
Zhuang Yu was dissatisfied: "What did the second sister say, can I not say it if I know?" Besides, the eldest sister is busy with your wife on weekdays, and how often she likes to talk to us about this. The second sister listened to the eldest sister? ”
Zhuang Xuan is not good at replying, after all, the eldest sister and Zhuang Yu are sisters in the house, and no one said it, why did they tell themselves? In fact, this was not told by the big sister.
Zhuang Qi said: "I heard that, who passed the word?" I don't remember. That's it. Anyway, it was going out from my sister's place at that time? ”
Yu Qi choked and was speechless, where have he experienced such things, and he shouldn't make his own decisions about going out and entering the door.
Jin Shu seemed to see that Yu Qi was a little unbearable, and hurriedly said: "Why don't the second girl wait for the news to come out and then talk about it." At this moment, we say, let the bride feel that we are laughing at people! ”
Zhuang Xuan slapped again and again: "Yes, yes, yes!" ”
Down, Huiyuan didn't enter the house, and Sanxi brought tea to add to you. A remark. When everyone was about to disperse, Zhuang Ying and Cao Yingguan came, holding a roll of paper scrolls. As soon as I entered the door, I was in a hurry and said let everyone help take a look. At that time, Zhuang Yu led the way out, Zhuang Yu, Zhuang Ying, Zhuang Yu, Zhuang Jue, Zhuang Ying and others led the girl out and ignored him.
Xianglian took advantage of this time to pull the brocade book, show her eyebrows, and the two went out one after the other.
Zhu'er, Lan'er, and Ju'er, the three girls from Zhongfu, also went out. When Sanxi saw everyone leaving, he said, "It's good that Sanye will come often in the future." ”
Zhuang Jue was puzzled and asked, "Why?" "I thought I was so welcome here.
Sanxi "hummed", ignored it, packed up the remaining cups and went out, poured water outside, and saw Xianglian talking to Jinshu, Jinshu should smile.
Zhu'er said aside: "What's the matter? The second master called Miss Jin over? ”
Xianglian replied with a smile: "I don't know what's going on, Baba sent me to invite." ”
Zhu'er smiled slightly, gave Jinshu a return gift and went back to Shouzhongju.
Xianglian did relay Zhuang Pu's words to Jinshu, Jinshu responded after learning about it, and before leaving, she went back to the house to say goodbye to Yu Qi, and said in a wide voice at the end: "Girl, don't blame us for joking just now." ”
Yu Qi returned the salute and said with a smile: "How come, Miss Jin is too hearty." ”
Jin Shu nodded and turned around to go, where was Zhuang Ying willing to let go, and hurriedly stopped: "Sister Jin stay and take a look, it's still early, what are you going to do." ”
Jin Shu walked around and said, "Where do I want to go back?" ”
Zhuang Jue looked at the back of Jinshu and said: "Then you are unhappy when you see me, like your sisters, you don't want to see me, and you will leave when you see me coming!" ”
At this time, Jin Shu had already gone to Xifu with Xianglian and his own girl.
