Chapter 587: Questioning
"Back to Lord Belle, Mao Gege took the eldest brother to the back mountain to pick oranges." The minions guarding the courtyard gate trembled.
Servants like them in Zhuangzi rarely see the eighth master, and when they see the eighth master's bad face again, they will become more and more restrained.
"Won't you come for lunch?" The eighth master asked.
Gege said, saying that he was having a picnic in the back mountain. The minion said again.
The eighth master frowned slightly, and said, "Which yard does she live in?" Bring me over! ”
The slave hurriedly got up and took the eighth master to the courtyard where Mao Tongtong lived.
Mao Tongtong, who is having fun in the back mountain, doesn't know at all, and he is still drowsy in the warm sunshine!
"Gege, if you're sleepy, let's go back to sleep." Qingzhu Road.
"How nice the sun is, let me take a nap right here." Mao Tongtong squinted and said.
"Gege, the slave didn't bring a thin blanket, I'm afraid you will fall asleep and get cold." Qingzhu worried.
Mao Tongtong glanced at the things they brought out and said, "It's okay, just give me the cloak." The sun is good today, not cold. ”
Qingzhu couldn't persuade him, so he brought the cloak to cover Mao Tongtong, thought about it, and took off the pillow on the carriage and placed it beside Mao Tongtong, so that he could block the mountain wind.
Mao Tongtong covered his face with a handkerchief, closed his eyes and took a nap.
At noon, the sun was at its hottest in the day, and Mao Tongtong soon fell asleep in this warm atmosphere.
In Zhuangzi, the eighth master sat in Mao Tongtong's house and drank tea. He didn't even return to the house after finishing his errand in the morning, so he came here on horseback. I thought I could catch up for lunch, but Mao Tongtong was not in the house at all, so he went to the back mountain to play.
He didn't sleep well since he learned last night that Mao Tongtong left the house, and today happened to be the Great Dynasty again, and he got up as soon as the time passed, so it can be said that he didn't sleep all night. After going down to the court, he went to the criminal department with the fourth master, and the Lord Ding was found by the jailer last night when he was looking for death, and he is still in a coma. Because the fourth master was sitting there, he found an excuse to come out.
Thinking of all kinds of worries and worries in his heart, and then thinking about Mao Tongtong's current happiness, the eighth master had a fire in his heart!
"Lord Belle, let's call someone to pass the meal, it's already past noon." Chen Guo couldn't help but say something on the side.
You must know that the eighth master still ate half a steamed bun and drank a bowl of porridge when he got up in the morning, and he didn't eat anything else.
The eighth master did not say anything with a dark face, neither said to eat nor said not to eat.
Chen Guo was helpless, and said again: "Do you want to take a nap for a while?" ”
The eighth master still didn't speak.
Now Chen Guo has no choice. He knew that the eighth master was sulking now. But what can he do if he is a slave? If you don't get one right, you'll get into trouble. After thinking about it, Chen Guo quietly moved out of the house, called the servants in the courtyard, and asked him to hurry up to Houshan to deliver the letter, so that Mao Tongtong could come back early.
As soon as the slave responded, he heard a burst of shouts from the eighth master in the room: "No one is allowed to deliver the letter!" ”
Chen Guo was frightened, and the minion's face turned pale.
After swallowing his saliva, Chen Guo responded: "Yes, Lord Belle!" ”
No one dared to move now, so they had to stay honestly.
The eighth master waited for more than an hour before he heard movement outside. The servant guarding the gate of the courtyard said in a loud voice: "Mao Gege is back!" ”
Mao Tongtong was still stunned, thinking to herself, why was this little eunuch so excited to see her come back?
As soon as she stepped into the courtyard with Tuan Tuan in her arms, she saw the eighth master walking out of the house.
"Master?" Mao Tongtong's eyes widened suddenly.
"Do you know to come back?" The eighth master said with a calm face.
Mao Tongtong was not frightened at all, but asked very calmly: "Is the master busy?" ”
And Tuan Tuan in Mao Tongtong's arms didn't notice that the eighth master was angry at all, but grinned happily and stretched out his hand to the eighth master, "Ahhh "That means let the eighth master hug it!
The eighth master was originally a belly of fire, but when he saw the cute Tuan Tuan, this fire couldn't be released. Although her face was still not good-looking, she had involuntarily walked to Mao Tongtong's side and hugged Tuan Tuan from her arms.
As soon as Tuan Tuan arrived in the arms of the eighth master, he hugged his face and kissed him, and then he giggled.
"This kid! Now I am silly to see my loved ones drooling! Mao Tongtong smiled and took out a handkerchief to wipe the eighth master's face, and said, "When did the master come?" Got all done? Is it possible to stay with me on the Zhuangzi for a few days? ”
Her natural look made the eighth master not know what to say for a while. In addition, he hugged Tuan Tuan again, so he could only enter the house with a straight face first.
"Master Mao, Lord Belle hasn't had lunch yet." Chen Guo reminded beside him.
Since the eighth master was sixteen years old, he went to the battlefield to eat at a regular time, and he hurt his stomach. Although he recuperated for a while after returning to Beijing, his stomach and intestines were still weaker than ordinary people. If you are hungry for a long time, or if you eat something too spicy, it can cause stomach pain.
"Huh? Why haven't you eaten yet? Let the kitchen do it! Mao Tongtong looked at the eighth master in surprise.
The eighth master glared at Chen Guo, then looked at Mao Tongtong and said, "How can the master be in the mood to eat!" ”
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Mao Tongtong said with concern.
The eighth master raised his eyebrows and said, "You don't know? Still ask the master? ”
Mao Tongtong looked dazed, "What do I know?" I haven't seen him in a few days. ”
The eighth master was depressed for a while, and even called the nurse and asked her to hug Tuan Tuan.
"Are you angry with me?" Mao Tongtong only realized the way in hindsight.
The eighth master glanced at her and said, "Shouldn't the master be angry with you?" ”
"Did I do something wrong?" Mao Tongtong asked rhetorically. She already knew in her heart why the eighth master was angry at this time, but in her opinion, this was not a big deal. Besides, she also left a letter for the eighth master.
"Are you angry with your grandfather?" The eighth master asked: "I think I can't accompany you out, so I just come out by myself!" I also took Tuan Tuan away! ”
"I'm not angry with my grandfather! Didn't you see the letter I wrote? Mao Tongtong said. She thought she had made it clear in the letter. As a woman, don't you have the right to go out and relax alone?
The eighth master didn't believe it, and continued to ask: "It's not angry, why do you want to hide from the master and come to Zhuangzi alone!" ”
"I don't have time, I'm alone, what's the problem?" Mao Tongtong looked puzzled.
In fact, there's really nothing wrong with that. Just like the ladies who go out of the house in the name of incense, it is actually a disguised distraction. It's just that the incense is all going to and returning on the same day, which is different from the meaning of Mao Tongtong living in Zhuangzi with a child. That's why Mao Tongtong's actions will make people misunderstood, and I don't believe that she really just wants to come out and breathe.
The eighth master was speechless by Mao Tongtong's words, and only after a while did he say: "If it's okay, why didn't you tell the master the night before yesterday?" Do you have to wait until you leave to let me know? ”
