Chapter 26: Just keep an eye on people
Chen Gui pondered how to make a fuss about things when the time came, and his mind turned around, and he suddenly remembered yesterday.
"Last night, I met Su Sangongzi," Chen Gui told the ins and outs, "I still thought he was talking, I didn't expect ......"
Who said "it's best not to go through the door", Chen Gui actually couldn't figure it out.
But even if Su Ke said it, Chen Gui didn't think deeply.
If you are at the wine table, just listen to it.
The same is true of what he said when he came down from the table to put water out.
Guys, there are a lot of people who don't have the right mouth.
It's like him, who is drunk and dares to brag in front of others, "Can my mother-in-law control me?" "When I actually go home, it's a "rake ear".
The sentence "The little daughter-in-law picked by Lingtang" originally meant to make fun of it, but Su Ke was not happy to hear it, and just said something back.
If this kind of statement is true, it will be endless.
Therefore, Chen Gui's curiosity is curiosity, and he has heard it.
It's just that when these four houses are put out, the situation is immediately different, no matter what Su Ke says right or wrong, he can't be regarded as unheard.
After carefully looking at the address again, Chen Gui asked, "Listen to what you meant before, not only the old lady doesn't know, but the third old man doesn't know either?" ”
Lin Yunyan smiled: "What? Scared? ”
"Where," Chen Gui said, "the more clearly asked, the more measured the action will be, and there will be no random mistakes." ”
For example, before the matter was explained, he would never mention this matter to the third master.
After all, Chen Gui is still very clear about the rules of conduct of the masters in the mansion.
This kind of fierce behavior of knocking on the door is indeed not suitable for the dignified and honest old lady, and several old men probably won't.
Lin Yunyan motioned for him to continue.
"County Lord," Chen Gui straightened his expression and was very solemn, "I'm definitely not afraid of things, but you have to let me know in my heart, does the eldest girl want to withdraw from the marriage?" ”
The scandal is big, and there will inevitably be a conflict between the Xuguo Mansion and the Chengyi Bo Mansion.
If you can't talk about it, it's just that he follows the sincerity of Bofu before and after the saddle, and he just makes some effort, in case the two families talk together, won't he, the person who is making waves in the middle, become a bedbug?
He still has to do business with Bofu and the third master, how can he be a bedbug?
"If you don't plan to break the cauldron," Chen Gui gritted his teeth and said bluntly, "I advise you to think twice." ”
Lin Yunyan bent her eyes and laughed.
This smile made the second monk Chen Guizhang scratch his head.
Is it so interesting to be so serious?
What he didn't know was that Lin Yunyan admired his directness.
After twisting and turning with Xiao Duan's clan and pulling a little progress, Lin Yunyan only felt very relaxed when she saw Chen Gui, a person who could speak straight.
"If I don't cut off my relationship with his family, I'm not making a fuss for nothing?" Lin Yunyan replied, "The eldest sister will never marry into their family, you just have to keep an eye on people." ”
With these words here, Chen Gui was relieved.
Of course, the old lady is in charge of the house, but the county lord's opinion is also quite weighty.
Just like the honest deal, if the county lord hadn't persuaded the old lady and thought of a good idea, it would have had nothing to do with them a long time ago.
Chen Gui received the task and saluted and retired.
Lin Yunyan was not in a hurry to leave, and asked Bang Yue to add tea to her.
Bang Yue couldn't hide her anger on her face, and said: "Su Sangongzi is actually such a person, and the slave maid thinks that the eldest girl has a good husband." ”
"It's not just that you have lost your eyes," Lin Yunyan took a sip of hot tea and sighed, "Grandmother, uncle, everyone in the house has looked away." ”
"It's a shame that you, the county lord, have found out the clues," Bang Yue sighed, "If the eldest girl marries and knows, how sad it is, not only the eldest girl, but also the second lady and the old lady ......."
Lin Yunyan lowered her eyes.
Bang Yue also said that she was powerful, where is she powerful, but she has just experienced it once.
And looking at people is the most difficult thing in the world.
No matter how much he suffers, no one dares to boast that he has gained a good ability to distinguish loyalty and treachery at a glance.
She whispered softly to Bang Yue: "It's too late to stop it now." ”
Chen Gui is very neat.
Out of Liumingxuan, he ordered a few reliable ones and went to several houses to explore.
And he himself went to Willow Alley.
One of the things the county lord wrote is here.
The door of the house was shut.
Chen Gui looked left and right, his heart was crossed, and he took the initiative to step forward and knock on the door.
After a while, a woman came to open the door and watched him warily.
Chen Gui bowed his hand: "Hello Mom, my child was playing ball in the alley next door and accidentally fell into your back wall, can you ask my mother to look for it for me." ”
His clothes are not rich, but he is not dressed by ordinary people, he looks upright, and because he has a lot of contacts with Lin Xun on weekdays, he also has a bit of grace when he speaks.
The woman put away her vigilance, and wanted to let people wait outside, but before she could say anything, Chen Gui stuffed a piece of broken silver.
"It's hard mom." Chen Gui smiled kindly.
With a soft hand, the mother-in-law thought about it, gave way, and told Chen Gui to stand in the door, not to move around at will, and to go back by himself.
Chen Gui was very cooperative, standing in place with his hands behind his back, looking at it with a pair of sharp eyes.
This is a house with two rows of clothes drying in the yard, one row is the mother-in-law's, and the other row is ......
Chen Gui couldn't help frowning, how could it be men's clothing?
The material is bright, and judging from the color and style, it is worn by young men.
Xu heard the movement, the curtain of the house was raised, and a person poked his head out, and saw the stranger standing in the door, he was slightly stunned, and quickly retreated.
This time it was too fast, and Chen Gui didn't see anything clearly except that the other party was a young man.
After a while, the woman came back empty-handed: "I didn't find the ball you said, did it fall to the house next door?" ”
Chen Gui apologized again and again: "The child is small, probably because he is on the wrong wall and annoying his mother." ”
The mother-in-law sent him out.
Chen Gui walked while talking about the situation just now, and said, "I'm afraid I'm scaring my son, do you want to make amends?" ”
"It's okay, I'll just talk to him, you don't have to apologize." Mother-in-law said.
Chen Gui was secretly speechless.
The mother-in-law did not deny that he was a "childe", so it was not that he looked away.
Chen Gui left the house, sang all the operas, and knocked on the door next door, wanting to find the ball.
His ears were not bad, and when he stepped into the next door, he heard a soft sound, and the door of the mother-in-law was closed.
The ball can't be found, but there are still some gains.
During the conversation with the neighbor, Chen Gui determined that there were only two people in the house, the old and the young.
He was puzzled, how could he be a teenager?
Could it be that the county lord gave him the wrong address?
Back in the alley, Chen Gui found an unobtrusive corner and continued to stare at the house.
waited until the sun set, only to see a sedan chair coming from the other end.
The blue sedan clothes, printed with the imprint of the carriage and horse shop, are very common in the streets and alleys.
The sedan chair stopped outside the house, and as soon as the sedan curtain was lifted, the person who came down was Su Ke.
