Chapter 35: The Yuan Family's Plan
Dongning City, Murong Mansion.
Xiao Qing anxiously walked through the courtyards of Murong Mansion and came to Master Murong's room.
Xiaoqing bowed to the empty door, "Dear Third Lady, Xiaoqing has something very important to ask for, the stakes are very important, it is not trivial, please ask the Third Lady to open the door." ”
At this moment, inside the room.
"Xiaoqing, what's the matter? In such a hurry, could it be that something big has happened?"
Murong Li asked the third lady, and the third lady shook her head, saying that she didn't know either.
"Master, you go back to bed and lie down first, and I'll go see what's going on. ”
After a while, the door of the room opened, and the third lady in a gorgeous dress appeared in front of Xiao Qing who was bowing with majesty.
Xiaoqing felt a kind of invisible majesty, which pressed her out of breath, until the third lady opened the golden mouth: "Flatten, Xiaoqing, you came to me in such a hurry, did the little young master find it?"
"This ......"
Xiao Qing's eyes dodged, and he hesitated.
"Why don't you speak? Are you dumb?"
"Third lady, our informant came to report that the Yuan family recently had a distinguished guest from Jingzhou, and I heard that he came to discuss cooperation with the Yuan family, and wanted to swallow the market of our Murong family and the Wu family in one bite, and dominate Dongning, one family is dominant. ”
"Oh, from Jingzhou, swallow our Murong family and Wu family in one go, what a big breath!"
After thinking for a while, the third lady frowned slightly.
Is it .......?
"Does the Wu family know about this?"
"Third Madam Hui, according to the information we have so far, the Wu family doesn't know about this yet. After I knew about this matter, I understood that this matter was related to the future of the Murong family, and the stakes were very high, and I knew that as Xiaoqing, I was not qualified to make decisions! ”
The third lady nodded, "Xiaoqing!"
"In!"
"You immediately send someone to inform the head of the Wu family about this matter, and ask him to come to Murong Mansion to discuss countermeasures together, this matter is related to the future pattern of Dongning! Without further ado, you can arrange it now. ”
"Yes!"
Xiaoqing turned around and was about to arrange for someone to go to Wu's house, but the third lady stopped her.
"Wait!"
Xiaoqing's expression was a little puzzled, and there was a little fear in the doubt, you know, the legend of the third lady is a fierce god who is uncertain.
"What's the matter, Third Madam, is there anything else you want to explain to Xiaoqing?"
"No, I just want to say that I have seen your efforts in the past few months, especially this time, you have done a good job, Steward Qing. ”
After saying this, the third lady closed the door.
Xiaoqing's chest rose and fell, she couldn't believe that the third lady actually praised her! This is simply as incredible as the sun rising in the west! Unbelievable! Xiaoqing was a little excited, and the affirmation from the third lady made her unconfident in being a housekeeper completely eliminated in the past few months. She secretly swore in her heart that she must be a good housekeeper and live up to Steward Liu's expectations.
Xiaoqing immediately went and ordered two trustworthy people to go to the Wu family to inform the head of the Wu family.
At this moment, in Master Murong's room.
"Old man......"
"I heard it all. ”
"Master, a person from Jingzhou, isn't it ......"
"Who else can it be? They are the only ones who can eat Dongning in one breath and let all the Dongning forces reshuffle. ”
"What are they doing in Dongning?"
"It is estimated that something big is really happening in Dongning. ”
"I hope our Murong family can survive this storm. ”
"Ning'er still has no news?"
"Old man......"
"It's okay, I'm fine, alas, something is going to happen to Dongning, Ning'er is still outside, I don't know if I can get it back, I hope Ning'er can be safe." ”
"Master, don't worry, Ning'er is a good person, with the blessing of the ancestors of the Murong family, he will definitely be safe. ”
"Alas......."
In a blink of an eye, it was getting late, the sun had set, and at this time, fifty miles outside Dongning City, the Yuan family's convoy had already set up camp.
Su Mengyi sat by the campfire, eating grilled chicken legs, and Yuan Teng sat opposite her.
Yuan Teng's white beard was reflected red by the firelight, and Su Mengyi's red hair also looked even more red against the firelight.
"Girl, I'm curious about who you are, what are you and that young man doing when you come to Dongning? ”
Su Mengyi's action of eating roast chicken thighs stopped, and turned her head to look at Yuan Teng, her eyes were full of provocation, "Elder, you must have heard this old saying, ask me these things during dinner?" I don't mean disrespecting you, but to be honest, you ask yourself, are you a little ignorant?"
Yuan Teng laughed, added some firewood to the fire, and continued casually: "Why should the girl be so aggressive, although my Yuan family is not earth-shaking, but it can be regarded as one of the best in Dongning, I invited the girl to come to my Yuan family as a guest." ”
Su Mengyi smiled contemptuously, but Yuan Teng was unmoved, not angry at all.
"Is the Yuan family throwing an olive branch to me now?"
"Not bad. We want to make friends with the girl, so that no matter what the girl does in Dongning, she can take care of her. If the young man who accompanied the girl really rescued our guests, then the first family in Dongning is our Yuan family, then at that time, if the girl wants to do anything in Dongning, she will inform the Yuan family, and when the time comes, what the Yuan family will give you is not such a simple thing. At that time in Dongning, it can be said that the Yuan family is responsive. ”
"Is the way your Yuan family makes friends by poisoning their friends?
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Su Mengyi was sarcastic about Yuan Teng, but Yuan Teng was like a nobody, concentrating on pulling firewood, as if the old man behind his ears didn't hear Su Mengyi speak at all.
"Think about it, girl, we still have a lot of time. ”
Su Mengyi took a bite of the roast chicken thigh, looked at the dancing flames in the fire, and gradually became distracted.
Ouyang Yu didn't know where he was now, had he found that girl, had he eaten?
"Ha Qiu! Who is talking about me behind my back......."
Ouyang Yu sneezed, he was on the branch of a big tree at this moment. The tree was huge, with a trunk as thick as five people hugging each other, and its branches were extremely thick. Ouyang Yu was sitting on a branch, leaning back against the trunk, eating dry food.
It's dark, there are many beasts in the forest, maybe there are monsters, it's too dangerous to walk in the forest at this time. So Ouyang Yu simply decided to sleep on this big tree for one night first, and then continue chasing tomorrow morning.
Ouyang Yu took out the spirit chasing bag from his arms, the light of the spirit chasing bag was much brighter than before, it seemed that the man in black had not gone too far.
It should be not far ahead, and the light has not changed, Ouyang Yu speculated that the man in black who snatched the guests of the Yuan family should also stop to rest. If nothing else, we should be able to catch up tomorrow.
Ouyang Yu put away the spirit chasing sac and nibbled on the dry food to look at the moon. The moon is quite round tonight, like a flatbread, speaking of flatbread, Ouyang Yu remembered a white-flour flatbread he bought on the street in Dongxi County when he just went down the mountain, but before he had time to eat a few bites, he fought with Wang Ye. was rescued by Su Mengyi again, and then walked along the way, from Dongxi County to Dongxi Mountain, to Shuixi Village, from Sun Shangrin to the vampire, and then to the man in black, in less than a month after going down the mountain, he really experienced a lot, like a dream.
Ouyang Yu stroked his chest, there was still a soul sleeping in his heart, his body had not yet healed, if he didn't break through the golden pill within half a year, he would die of anger, there were still many secrets that had not been answered, and there were still many questions that had not been answered.
Ouyang Yu thought about it and smiled, clasped his hands behind his head, lay on the trunk of the tree, and closed his eyes.
The rivers and lakes are so fun, I don't know what will happen when I get up tomorrow, sleep, good night.
Ouyang Yu really didn't expect what would happen the next day. Because in the middle of the night, when he was asleep, a black wind hung out from Dongning City, took a few children, passed by the tree where Ouyang Yu slept, and took him casually......
