Chapter 248, Two Sayings
"How's Qing'er's family?" Seeing that Yu Zhuqing's family affair was mentioned, Yu Ruiwen couldn't care about emotion, and hurriedly asked.
"It's also the old man's fault for this." Mrs. Qian sighed, "After meeting Mrs. Xin Kangbo, the old body and Mrs. Xin Kangbo sat on the side and talked, the old body is not in good health, and he can't walk too much, so it is best to talk on the side, but the eldest girl is young and can't sit still, so I let her go for a walk by herself, and the third girl went to the front early to enjoy the scenery." ”
"The eldest girl has always been gentle, and she is not very talkative, and she is afraid that the eldest girl will not be safe alone, so he instructed Chu Ergongzi to follow, no need to follow closely, pay attention from a distance, lest others collide with the eldest girl."
Old Madam Qian sighed again when she said this: "Who would have thought that the eldest girl would almost fall into the water when she crossed the bridge, the second son of Chu is a good one, I saw a woman falling into the water from a distance, and hurriedly rushed over to rescue the person, who would have thought ......"
"How did you fall into the water?" When Yu Ruiwen heard this, he couldn't sit still and asked urgently.
"I heard that there were people on the bridge who didn't know what kind of oil was dripping on it, and it happened that several people on the bridge all fell into the water." Old Madam Qian quietly pulled all the others in.
With so many people, it is impossible to plot against one person.
"Who ever wanted to save a man, but it happened that a woman's clothes fell on him, everyone thought it was a woman, and the second son of Chu also thought that this person was a big girl, and made a big joke." Old Madam Qian continued.
"Zhuqing didn't fall into the water?" Yu Ruiwen asked uneasily.
"No, the eldest girl is with the third girl, it's the second son of Chu who made a big joke, I'm afraid this is ...... In the end, it will involve the big girl. Old Madam Qian sighed and mentioned.
"Why? It's not that Zhuqing is fine, why did it fall on Zhuqing? Yu Ruiwen didn't understand the bend in this.
"Master Hou, the second son of Chu made such a big joke, it will inevitably become the laughing stock of the capital, some people may also say that his intentions are irregular, and there are many people who fell into the river, why do you want to save a 'woman'?" Mrs. Qian said.
"Isn't it a man?" Yu Ruiwen didn't understand.
"It's a man, but at that time, many people were mistaken, they thought it was a woman, Chu Ergongzi just went straight to the rescue, people who didn't know the inside story thought that Chu Ergongzi had ulterior motives, and Xinkang Mansion was also a family with a head and a face, so he would definitely not let this rumor spread." Mrs. Qian mentioned.
"What will they do?" Yu Ruiwen understood, and said with an unkind expression.
"The blind date between the two families will inevitably be said, so that others can understand that the second son of Chu was following the eldest girl at that time, thinking that the eldest girl fell into the water, how could he not save the eldest girl first, he couldn't save him first!" Mrs. Qian said.
This sound very reasonable, Yu Ruiwen was silent and did not speak.
"Master Hou, this matter is mainly because the old body is not good, if the old body follows the big girl, there will be no such thing." Old Madam Qian blamed herself.
"I don't blame you for this, you are not in good health, it is not easy to go over and help each other this time, how can you still let you follow Qing'er, it's just ...... What is the result? Yu Ruiwen frowned.
If Yu Zhuqing also takes a fancy to it, this matter is really nothing, as soon as the blind date between the two families is said, Chu Zidan will not let people misunderstand going to other people's girls, and there are other plans.
I'm afraid that Yu Zhuqing won't take a fancy to it, and this matter will be difficult to do.
"The old body doesn't know about this, the eldest girl has an idea, and she is not close to the old body, just the old body asked, she just shook her head, and didn't say anything, the old body saw that there were a lot of people at that time, so he didn't ask, looking at the appearance of the eldest girl, and the third girl should have been said, Hou Ye might as well ask the third girl later."
Mrs. Qian pushed things to a clean slate.
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and covered his chest: "Master Hou, what should I do about this matter, or you make up your own mind, the letter Kangbo Mansion will definitely talk about this matter and clear the reputation of the second son of Chu." ”
"No way!" Yu Ruiwen was in a hurry.
Mrs. Qian gasped twice, looking more and more unable to support it, but she was still helping Yu Ruiwen come up with ideas: "This matter...... I have to ask the eldest girl first, but I believe in the Comber Mansion......"
"I have to trouble the old lady to help me talk about it first, so that the Xinkang Mansion can suppress this matter." Yu Ruiwen couldn't do it, he looked left and right to see that there was no one to support, only the old lady Qian in front of him was more reliable.
He has no elders in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and now that the Qian family is also grounded, there is only one aunt who can handle things, which is really inconvenient.
"This is the ...... I'm afraid it's hard to do. Mrs. Qian said, and then looked at Yu Ruiwen, who was anxious, and stretched out her hand and pressed it weakly, "Don't worry, the old body can't watch good things turn into bad things, the old body tried to talk to Mrs. Xin Kangbo, but her face was angry when she left, and she should be very concerned about this matter." ”
"There's Mrs. Lao." The more Yu Ruiwen listened, the more anxious he became, and hurriedly said.
"It's nothing...... There are no elders in your house, and the old body always has to think about you. Old Madam Qian coughed lowly.
Hearing her say this, Yu Ruiwen was more and more moved, Mrs. Qian was really very good to herself, in the past, the affairs of the house needed to be brought forward by the elders, but whenever she sent someone to ask for it, Mrs. Qian did not refuse, and now her health is not so bad, and she still works hard for herself.
“…… Thanks a lot. Yu Ruiwen's voice choked.
"Don't say such things, why should the family see outside." Old Madam Qian smiled more and more kindly, "I will tell you this now, you can ask the eldest girl, or the third girl, the old man will go back first, and he will also send someone to contact Xinkang Mansion, and then send someone to inform you if there is news." ”
"Okay." Yu Ruiwen was grateful, helped her mother-in-law to help Mrs. Qian up, and looked at the back of Mrs. Qian staggering away, feeling guilty and guilty.
The old lady is not in good health, and she is so old that she has to be embarrassed for her.
Speaking of which, the Qian family is not angry, if the Qian family is a good one, how can it be like this......
"Master Hou, the third girl is here." The little guy came in and reported.
Yu Ruiwen was about to get up to find the third daughter, and when he heard that Yu Xijiao was coming, he sat down again: "Let the third girl come in." ”
Yu Xijiao freshened up, changed her clothes again, and came in to salute Yu Ruiwen Yingying: "Father." ”
"You're just in time, you're ...... How's the eldest sister? Yu Ruiwen hesitated, in fact, the youngest daughter is still young, and it is not suitable to talk to the youngest daughter about this matter.
But he didn't look for the youngest daughter to say, Yu Ruiwen couldn't even find anyone, so he couldn't be a father, so he went over and asked the eldest daughter directly!
sighed again, there is still a good lady missing in the house.
"Father, the eldest sister thinks that the second son of the Xinkang Mansion is not good." Yu Xijiao didn't shirk it, and said bluntly to Yu Ruiwen.
"Didn't like it?" Yu Ruiwen understood, and his brows were deeply locked.
"Father, this second son of Chu is really not very good, when he saw a woman falling in the water, he swam over desperately, took the person to the shore, and said the name of the eldest sister vigorously, for fear that he didn't know that this person was the eldest sister, such a person, how could the eldest sister marry."
Yu Xijiao said with an annoyed face. "In front of so many people watching the excitement, the second son of Chu has the name of 'eldest sister'", this is to ruin the reputation of the eldest sister's innocence! ”
"He keeps calling your eldest sister's name?" Yu Ruiwen was surprised, Mrs. Qian didn't say this.
"Yes, in front of so many people, I said it very loudly, and I called the little girl loudly, if it wasn't for the eldest sister who was really fine at the time, if it wasn't for me to ask Mingyue to raise her voice and ask Chu Ergongzi, I'm afraid what you heard was the eldest sister falling into the water, the three of them became tigers, and there were many people who said it, so they naturally thought it was true."
Yu Xi said squeamily, a jade white little face was angry and red.
"It's not that ...... Thought your eldest sister fell into the water, and he followed behind from a distance to protect your eldest sister? Yu Ruiwen said hesitantly, the meaning from the mouth of the old mother-in-law and the mouth of the little daughter is not the same, although it is a little similar, I always feel that they have pressed important news.
"Father, follow the eldest sister from afar, you need to say this kind of thing deliberately, you need to make people misunderstand that it is the eldest sister in the water, and you need to make trouble in the city?" Yu Xijiao asked rhetorically, and then her tone calmed down a bit, "Father, think about it, if it was the eldest sister who really fell into the water, where would she still have a reputation now, and I doubt it...... This matter is aimed at the eldest sister. ”
Yu Xijiao said affirmatively.
Yu Ruiwen was taken aback: "How can it be aimed at your eldest sister, although there are oil stains on the bridge, it may be that the person in front of you accidentally fell there, and there were many people who fell into the water at that time." Yu Ruiwen's heart jumped heavily.
"Father, did Mrs. Qian say that I actually left early?" Yu Xijiao was not in a hurry to explain.
"I said, I said you can't sit still, go to the front to enjoy the scenery first." Yu Ruiwen said, Mrs. Qian was actually a word.
"I went first, when I passed, the bridge was still good, I had nothing to see alone, just waiting for the eldest sister to come over at the willow tree on the opposite bank, and then I saw a lot of people coming and going on the bridge, nothing happened, it can be seen that at that time, the bridge deck was good, there was no oil. But a short time before the eldest sister crossed the bridge, a suspicious mother-in-law passed by, carrying a basket in her hand. ”
Yu Xijiao said, she was in the willow bush at the time, the willow tree over there was big, she retreated back, saw a mother-in-law passing the sedan chair, holding a basket in her hand, down the bridge deck, stopped, seemed to change hands, she didn't care at the time, now I want to come, that's how the oil came.
"Father, in addition to these, the daughter has another piece of evidence." After Yu Xijiao finished talking about the above events, she continued.
When she went to Qingyulou, she knew that something was going to happen, Mingyue told her that Huaibao had prepared two people for her, saying that she could borrow it, and Yu Xijiao borrowed it after thinking about it.
She guessed two possibilities, and in each place there was a person, and the entrance was by the bridge, and the first was ......
