Chapter Eighty-Four: Tomallow Persuades the Lord



Wen Yi always felt that the words of Uncle Seventeen and the others were a little harsh, not that there was anything bad, but when she thought of the situation of the fifteenth aunt and the seventeenth brother and others in the side courtyard, as well as the fifteenth uncle who was moved to the nine-room mansion to stop the spirit, she felt a little uncomfortable. However, she is a junior, and she can't say anything about this kind of thing, so she can only take Dong Kui to the car and go back to her house first.

When she got home, she didn't go into the back house, so she directly called the housekeeper Zhong Maolin and his wife to the front yard, briefly talked about the current situation of the nine rooms, and instructed Zhong Maolin to take a few people to the nine rooms to help take care of the funeral.

After such an instruction, she called her daughter-in-law in her courtyard to accompany her family, and then called Mrs. Lin in her grandmother's courtyard to follow the car, and went to the long house to find Liu Dongxing with her. After all, she is a boudoir woman, even if she thinks she is honest, she must do enough to follow the rules, so as not to make people gossip. With the power of the long house, there are still uncles who are side branches and have a side branch to accuse Wen Hui of damaging her reputation, not to mention that she is an orphan girl?

Wen Yi was about to go out with someone, but Dong Kui suddenly said: "Miss, just now you asked Mrs. Zhong to prepare food for Mrs. Fifteen, have you reminded her that Mrs. Fifteen is now pregnant and in mourning, so there are many taboos in diet?" The slave maid remembered in a trance that you didn't seem to make it clear, so it's better to remind Zhong Niangzi again, be careful to sail the ship for ten thousand years! ”

Wen Yi was stunned, thought about it for a while, and always felt that she had mentioned it, but Dong Kui's words were not wrong, this kind of thing would rather be more careful, so she said: "Then ask someone to bring a message to Zhong Niangzi and remind her." Dong Que immediately turned to the He family: "Sister-in-law He, you are from here, you naturally know the taboos here, can I invite you to take a trip?" ”

The He family glanced at Wen Yi and smiled: "The little one will come when he goes." Wen Yi nodded, watched her go, thought about getting in the car first and waiting, and heard Dong Kui say: "Mother Lin, please go outside and take a look, is Brother Guo's car big enough?" This time, my mother and sister-in-law He were added, but I was afraid that the car would be too crowded. ”

Mrs. Lin glanced at her and didn't say a word, but Wen Yi's heart moved, and she ordered: "Then Mother Lin will go and take a look, I'll wait for you to reply in the flower hall." Mrs. Lin bowed and withdrew. Wen Yi turned her head to look at Dong Kui, with a smile on her face.

Let the He family give a message to Mrs. Zhong, but it is a little redundant to ask Mrs. Lin to look at the carriage. Just now she accompanied her grandmother to see the fifteenth aunt, and she also took the car, and the grandparents and grandchildren sat in the car, and she could accommodate the two girls of hollyhock and heather, plus the mother-in-law of the ninth room, how could it be too crowded now? Hollyhock clearly intended to take people away, but he didn't know what he wanted to do.

Wen Yi sat down in the flower hall, and saw Dong Aoi kneeling down at her feet with a plop, bowed her head and said, "The slave is bold, I have a few words to persuade Miss." Wen Yi raised her eyebrows: "What do you have to say?" Say it all! ”

Dong Que pursed his lips, took a deep breath, and whispered: "In the past few days, there has been a mess in the village, gossip is flying all over the sky, and the old ladies and ladies in each room have a stomach full of resentment against the long room, and then there is the future of the fifteenth master...... At this time, it is a little inappropriate for the slave maid to mention these words, but please believe that the slave maid is sincerely thinking about the miss! Slaves...... The family is a slave who has committed crimes, and his father has also been guilty of helping his old master and lost his life, and the slave's sister is also ......" Her eyes were red, and she couldn't help but burst into tears, but she just held back," ...... If it weren't for the young lady who bought the slave's family, the slave's grandmother, mother and sister ...... I don't know where it's going to end up yet! Back then, it was because the wife and young lady of the old master's family were sentenced to the teaching department, they hanged themselves in order to avoid humiliation, and the eldest sister of the slave was the eldest girl next to the young lady, and she also hanged herself. The slave maid's family would not even come back from her sister's corpse, and she was sold by the official, it was really desperate, if it weren't for the young lady's pity, the slave would rather die than suffer those crimes...... The slave's grandmother, mother, and sister are also in this mind, as long as they can repay the kindness of the old lady and the young lady, they are willing to do anything! ”

Wen Yi's heart was sour when she heard this, and she said softly: "What are you doing with this?" Naturally, I believe in you, and if you have something to say, you can just say it. ”

Dong Que wiped his eyes and said, "The slave is brave, in the past two months, I have been waiting by the young lady's side, and I have also seen some clues. Since the old lady is in charge, the young master is naturally a good match for the young lady, not to mention that he is an acquaintance, although outsiders don't know, but our family knows that he has a temperament, and this alone is much better than others. There is just one thing that makes the slave and maid worry about the young lady. Now it's a mess outside, the Liu family is not sure when they will leave, but Miss's major event has not yet been decided, what if something happens in the future? ”

She said what Wen Yi was thinking, and she couldn't help but feel a slight pain in her heart. However, when the girl with her said this, Wen Yi remembered that when Liu Dongxing talked to her during the spring outing, Dong Que was not far away, and she seemed to have tight eyes, she immediately blushed, and hurriedly interrupted Dong Kui's words: "No wonder you said that you are brave, you are really brave!" Grandmother is in charge of these things, what the hell do you care?! ”

Dong Que said in a low voice: "The slave knows that she has trespassed, but she just watches the days go by, there is a lot of news every day, and now even the prince of Dongping is leaving." Didn't there be news before that the prince was gone, and the Liu family would follow south in two days? If they leave, the matter of the young lady has not yet been decided, and after this village, who knows if there will be this shop?! Although the old lady will call the shots, the old lady has always been a polite person, so she is afraid that her old man will take care of the etiquette, see that there are white things in the clan, and be afraid of gossiping, and refuse to mention Miss Liu's marriage to the Liu family, so won't the young lady be delayed? ! ”

Wen Yi chirped: "Which one was delayed?!" Am I in a hurry to get married?! When people hear it, they don't know how to arrange me! Don't say any more, grandmother has her own ideas. She couldn't help but look outside the flower hall, and saw that no one was approaching, and no one must have heard their conversation, so she was a little relieved.

Dong Kui's eyes were red, and she whispered, "The slave knows that what she said is inappropriate...... I'm just really worried about Miss...... That Young Master Liu, the slave didn't recognize it, but it was only later that she saw a lot before she remembered who he was...... It is really rare to see what he has done in the past few days, and he is also a responsible person, whether it is medical skills or martial arts, he is very outstanding. Besides, he has no parents and his status is also equivalent, although he has an uncle and aunt, he will have to split up sooner or later, and the third aunt is the daughter of the Gu family, no matter what her temperament is, she will never get along with her niece's daughter...... In the past few years, the young lady has been worried about the family, and she is always worried that she has no brothers, and the old lady will have no one to take care of her in the future. This kind of good family affair is not always encountered, and besides, you are also ...... in your heart."

"That's it!" Wen Yi even turned red in her ears, "Didn't I tell you to stop talking?!" She twisted her handkerchief uneasily, only to feel a little unable to sit still. Is her heart so obvious? Grandmother is there because she once mentioned the experience of "in a dream", Mama Zhao is an old man, and she has watched her grow up since she was a child, so it is not surprising that she can guess it, and now she even found out about Dong Kui, is she too negligent? ! She has tried her best to hide this from the girls, but they still see the clues, will they gossip about her in private?!

As soon as she thought of this, she couldn't help but look up at the hollyhock, with scrutiny in her eyes.

Dong Que noticed it, lowered his head and whispered: "Miss forgive me, the slave maid is also half guessed, and that spring outing ...... The slave maid was in front of the grass pavilion, in the downwind, so she heard a few words......" Seeing that Wen Yi's face turned red again, she hurriedly said: "The other sisters don't know!" If the slave and maid were not really worried, they would not dare to talk more......"

Wen Yi bit her lower lip tightly, and the handkerchief on her hand was already twisted. Seeing this, Dong Kui's expression was a little gloomy: "The slave feels that Miss is very gracious, and she will never say it, Miss can rest assured...... The slave maid is just worried about the future of the young lady......" She was silent, took a deep breath, closed her eyes and said: "Miss, since the slave maid told you this today, I simply have one more mouth!" Your family matter, whether the old lady opens her mouth or not, the third aunt has already mentioned it, but it is not yet time to say what will happen later. Now you have to go to the long room to ask Young Master Liu for help, but you have to be careful, you can't show any horses' feet, and ask someone to hold the handle and talk! The matter of Miss Long Fang Sixth has not yet been decided, if she has a case, I am afraid that the old ladies and women of the Long Room will be annoyed, and they will just catch someone to vent their anger......"

Wen Yi quickly glanced up at her, her face a little ugly. Hollyho bit her lip, got up with her head down, and stepped aside to serve. After a while, the voice of the He family came from outside: "Miss, Mother Lin came to report that the car is ready, can you leave now?" ”

Wen Yi took a deep breath and responded calmly, "I know, I'll come." Standing up, he turned his head to look at Dong Lyhock again, lowered his voice and said, "I know what you mean, I'll be careful, you ......" paused, "Let's go!" Dong Lai curtsied and followed Wen Yi out the door.

Along the way, Wen Yi sat in the carriage, looking at the hollyhock diagonally opposite, with mixed feelings in her heart.

Four years ago, she met the slaves of the official family of the official who betrayed the official in Pingyin County, so she picked a few family members. At that time, in order to prevent these people from becoming entangled with the old master, she deliberately chose the third and fourth class male and female servants who were not reused in the original owner's home. The three-room family members who bought in, including the Lin family, the He family and the Xu family, except for the Lin family, who have a father and son, are basically women. Among them, the two who became her own maid were perilla and hollyhock, and among them, she liked perilla more. Shisu is innocent and straightforward, and often makes mistakes in doing things, but she is a scheming person, and she is not afraid of what she will calculate; And the hollyhock is much calmer, but also very eye-catching, sometimes in order to probe her master's mind, often use others as a shield. Therefore, although she knew that Dong Lyho was better than Shiso, she was always wary of it, but after a few years, she unconsciously relied on the other party. After listening to Dong Kui's persuasion, she suddenly realized that the other party was not unfaithful to her, but had a different temperament and different methods.

She guessed in her heart that Dong Aoi persuaded her to say this, and the first few sentences that persuaded her to make a family decision early were mostly smoke, and the last sentence was the point. She now has affection for Liu Dongxing, and she can't be common, so she feels uncomfortable. She had just experienced a catastrophe a few days ago, and she was about to meet with him, say a few words from her heart, and perhaps, hint at a few words of uneasiness in her heart?

In normal times, these things are nothing, they are only covered up properly, and no one may criticize them more. However, now that rumors are spreading in the village, Changfang sees that a daughter is in a crisis of honor, and she offended the third aunt a few days ago - the person who decided Liu Dongxing's marriage - if there is a mistake, her marriage with Liu Dongxing will not be successful, but her reputation and the reputation of the sixth room will be greatly damaged! This is going to kill people in the Gu family!

Wen Yi let out a long breath, but her heart became more and more dazed. Where does she go from here at such a time?

The carriage soon arrived at the mansion of the Nagabo Xuanle Hall. The open space in front of the gate had been cleaned, the door panels had been repainted, emitting a strong smell of red paint, and the bloodstains left by the servants who had fled back with injuries had disappeared, and only a few small gaps in the door could vaguely show that it had been attacked by bandits.

Wen Yi entered the house through the side door in the car, and when she got off in front of the second gate, she was greeted by the lady in charge. She tried to put on a calm and upright appearance, explaining her intentions, only to say that she had come to run errands on the orders of her grandmother. But the lady in charge said, "Young Master Liu is now in the Seventh Young Master's Courtyard!" I'm afraid I won't be free. ”

Wen Yi was a little surprised, and said: "If you are not free at the moment, you go and spread a word, and it is the same to invite him to come out and see him." My grandmother is still waiting for news, this life-saving prescription can't be delayed. Besides, what good can he do in front of Brother Qi? Isn't there an old lady Wang here? If it's really inconvenient......," she paused, "it would be better if I could ask Doctor Wang to help." ”

The lady in charge smiled and said, "Doctor Wang is very tired, and when she saw that the seventh young master had woken up, she said goodbye and went home." Because he said that the Seventh Young Master's injury was not light, and he had to live well and not be angry, the old lady, the second master, and the second wife all followed the Seventh Young Master, and they were worried that his injury would change, so they asked Young Master Liu to accompany him. The Seventh Young Master knew that it was Young Master Liu who saved his life, but he also pulled him and refused to let him go! Last night, Young Master Liu was still resting in the Seventh Young Master's Courtyard. ”

Wen Yi frowned slightly, Dong Kui stepped forward and whispered in her ear: "Miss, it's more convenient to have the Seventh Young Master talking." She glanced back at Dong Kui, sighed with some regret, and said to the lady in charge, "I don't know where the eldest and second aunts are right now?" I'll go and say hello to them, and then please ask my mother to go to Seventh Brother to spread a message, and don't ask Young Master Liu to come out and see them. Now that Doctor Wang has returned home, I can only work with Young Master Liu. ”

Even if you can't talk alone, ...... I want to see him......
