Chapter 056: The Old Man Comes

Although Qian was kowtowing, there was no fear on her face, nor was there any reverence that ordinary servants should have for their mastersβ€”Mrs. Mu finally found the reason, and found the place where she felt something was wrong since she saw Qian.

Just because Qian lowered her head and kowtowed, she didn't expect to be seen by Mrs. Mu on the side face. Mrs. Mu's eyes narrowed, she raised her head and said softly, "Shuyuan is tired of walking, you can't rush this time." Chengye, you tap. ”

Jin Chengye was shocked at this time, and quickly stopped and looked at Shuyuan: "Didn't 'hurt' you, right?" ”

Shuyuan shook her head and looked back at Qian who was kneeling on the ground: "She didn't do anything, she served very well." Don't blame her, let her get upβ€”where does that big temper come from? ”

Jin Chengye didn't look at Qian, but turned his eyes on Mrs. Mu: "Is it the son-in-law, the mother-in-law taught me a very right lesson." ”

Mrs. Mu smiled: "The lesson is heavy, just to remind you." Shuyuan is a person who has a body now, so it's better to be careful. She walked to the 'girl' and said, "Look at the sweat on your end." Taking the opportunity to test Shuyuan's sweat, she handed a glance over.

Shuyuan followed her mother's gaze and just saw Qian raise her head, and the two looked at each other for a moment, and Qian lowered her head again; But the look on Qian's face was calm and made her feel extremely strange, and there was a bit of joy in the calm.

Joy? Sookwon really didn't know what to be happy about in the current situation.

Jin Chengye turned around again, this time he remembered to ask Mrs. Mu first: "Mother-in-law, it's time to eat, and my son-in-law is here to invite my mother-in-law." I specially asked people to prepare a few dishes that my father-in-law and mother-in-law liked, for fear that they would lose their taste and come to find them in a hurry. ”

"There is no scenery in our house to speak of, and the garden of my father-in-law's house is really vulgar." As he spoke, he gently took Shuyuan's hand: "Don't come over in the future, how to say 'yin' here is a bit too heavy, our old lady told you." ”

Shuyuan smiled: "Be careful that the ancestors will beat you as an unfilial descendant when they hear it." It was because I was very worried about the child in my womb after a serious illness that I came to ask the ancestors for their blessings, so you don't have to talk nonsense. ”

She was already a little strange about Jin Chengye's reaction just now, but now that she heard him say such words, she was even more sure that there was something strange about this place.

She said this and looked up at Jin Chengye: "What did the Qian family do wrong?" I heard her say that she was punished for doing something wrong in the ancestral garden - it was very quiet and there was nothing to do, it should be considered leisurely, and the punishment for her was really not serious, it should not be a big mistake. ”

"The people in my yard don't use it, you know. I think the Qian family is a very safe person, so it is better to let her go to me. Do you want someone to call her over now, or do you want to call back to Madame or the old lady? ”

Jin Chengye raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Why do you want her?" A servant 'woman' who makes a mistake, where can he rest assured, it is better to pick a good one in other places, or simply buy a few people to use? Or did Qian say something to you, Shuyuan, your heart is soft and you want to do a good deed? ”

Shuyuan glanced at him: "Why are you so suspicious, and if there is anything that can't be said directly, you have to beat around the bush?" Don't you just want to ask me if Qian Shi said what happened to her in the past, and if she said it, I would ask you what to do? Because I don't know what mistakes she made in the past, I asked you if you could use her. ”

Jin Chengye looked at Mrs. Mu who was smiling on the side, and then narrowed his eyes slightly: "Don't the wicked sue first, aren't you beating around the bush?" She, it doesn't work. He paused when he said this: "She used to be a 'milk' mother, and she was a posthumous child, but she didn't expect the child to go early and was kicked out by her in-laws." ”

"Madame took pity on her and took her back to the house to be a 'milky' mother, but she didn't expect her to see the child's 'fault', and the child was gone, so she was sent to the ancestral garden." He said this and looked at Shuyuan: "That's an ominous person, whether you are a joke or not, I will not promise her to serve you, it is not good for you and the child." ”

Mrs. Mu said with some pity: "It turns out that I am still a lonely person. I just thought that she should have been married as a 'woman', so what should her family do if she stayed in the ancestral garden. It's pitiful, but it's really ......, Shuyuan, forget it, I don't think she's suitable. ”

Shuyuan nodded and didn't mention the Qian family again, but Jin Chengye was not in high spirits during the whole meal, and he only accompanied Master Mu for a few glasses of wine before he got drunk, and left early to rest.

Mrs. Mu and Master Mu had something to discuss, so they went back to the room early. Shuyuan was really a little tired, so she asked the girl to clean up and wanted to go to bed early, and just untied her hair, Lou came.

"What kind of wind brought my brother and sister here?" Shuyuan didn't stand up, but just turned around and leaned on the dressing table to look at Lou: "If you are here to find someone, I think you are in the wrong place, and the study is a good place to go." After speaking, he looked at Lou with a smile.

Lou's face was not red, and he walked over and pushed Shuyuan: "You are sick but your mouth is not forgiving, I really want to leave, I am afraid that you will ask me to come back, I remember who entrusted me with the matter." ”

Shuyuan put away her smiling face: "What did you ask?" ”

Lou sat down and picked up the teacup and smiled: "Don't drive me away now?" She looked left and right: "When did our master leave?" She asked anyway.

"Let's just say that you definitely didn't come here so late for me. Just leave for a while, it's not too late for you to rush over a while, let's talk quickly. Shuyuan picked up the hairpin and sat down casually: "What do you know?" ”

Lou Shi coughed twice: "I'll say first that it's not guaranteed to be right or wrong, it's just the gossip of the servants." And one more point, don't let the old ladies and ladies know, or I won't admit that I said these things. She looked at Shuyuan, and only after Shuyuan nodded and agreed to her, "The old lady is not allowed to chew their tongues with long tongues." ”

"Those two children," she said, glancing at Shuyuan here, "the former 'milk' lady and the girl who served them are not in the house; As for their mother, most of the people in the house really don't know, do you think it's strange? ”

"One thing that should be true is that the two children have been in the house for two months when they came to Fuzhong. That's all, you know, I had a lot of effort. She said that she stood up and could not sit still for a moment: "Remember what you promised me." ”

Shuyuan still wanted to ask a few words and then stopped Lou Shi, who turned around to leave, but didn't want Lou Shi to drop a sentence: "Let's talk about it when I'm free, I still have something to do." Shuyuan could only watch her leave like a gust of wind.

Sighing, Shuyuan took off the hairpin on her head, and sat for a while before remembering to go to bed early under the reminder of the clouds, but she couldn't sleep when she got to the 'bed', and Qian's face always appeared in front of her eyes.

After getting up early the next morning, 'Yu' and 'Lu' asked Shuyuan if she wanted to see the small courtyard sent by her master, and Shuyuan remembered it, but at this time she didn't have the heart to shake her head, and just told 'Yu' and 'Lu' to put things away properly.

After breakfast, Mrs. Mu told Shuyuan that she had sent someone to pick up the eldest aunt: because he was afraid that he would have to stay for a few days, Master Mu said that he was afraid that Mrs. Mu would have nothing to talk about after she moved out, so he asked the eldest aunt to come and be a companion with Mrs. Mu.

Shuyuan didn't say much about her parents, and it wasn't her turn to say anything, but she just asked people to pack up a side room and prepare to live for her aunt.

Seeing that it was noon again, Shuyuan put down the book in his hand and sighed to the clouds on his side: "It's rare to have nothing to do for a day, and the calm mind makes people can't believe it." ”

Yunwu smiled when he heard this: "Girl, are you complaining?" ”

"Whatever you complain about, you can tell me if you are dissatisfied with our little 'milk' and 'milk';" Jin Chengye stepped into the house: "I don't dare to say that I can make my wishes come true, but how can I make my little 'milk' and 'milk' comfortable." He saw that Yunwu and the others were about to leave and waved his hand: "You don't have to avoid it, but hurry up and let people prepare to entertain guests, distinguished guests." ”

Shuyuan looked up inexplicably: "What distinguished guest?" ”

Jin Chengye sat down with a smile: "I won't say it now, you will know when you see it in a while." When the time comes, if you are happy, reward me with something; I have done my best, and I owe more than one favor to others. ”

Shuyuan stopped paying attention to him when she saw that he didn't have serious words, picked up the book and read it, and suddenly remembered after reading two lines: "In a few days, our aunt of the Mu family will come over, and I will have someone prepare a house; But he won't be living in our house by then, and my father will definitely find a house, right? ”

She looked at Jin Chengye without blinking.

Jin Chengye looked at her: "Don't you really like the eldest aunt?" Don't worry, the house can be settled in these two days, and I will go to see the house with my father-in-law this afternoon, there are three places; I've seen it first, and it's okay. ”

Shuyuan retracted his gaze and continued to read, Jin Chengye stretched out his big hand to cover the book: "That's it?" ”

"You have filial piety." Shuyuan glanced at him with disgust: "You're embarrassed to ask for credit, it's not something you should do, and you really have to be ......."

"Girl, girl, look who's coming." 'Yu' and 'Lu' rushed in first, and while raising the curtain, they called Shuyuan in surprise and interrupted what Shuyuan wanted to say.

Jin Chenglai stroked his palm: "Come so fast?" Shuyuan, you're still sitting, get up and greet you. ”

The person on the other side of the curtain had already crossed the threshold of the 'door', dressed in elegant clothes, and a pair of eyes on his round face had narrowed: "Shuyuan." ”

"Susu?!" Sookwon stood up in disbelief. Before all her surprise could be on her face, she saw a person following behind Su Su, looking at Shuyuan smiling warmer than the sun at noon: "Shuyuan, it's been a long time." ”

The sounds are all warm.

Shuyuan's eyes widened: "Black big ......, cough cough, Brother Yang." She stopped her words in time, but she almost choked on her own saliva.
