972. Return to Qing Dynasty (77) Three in One(2/3)
So the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, Master Jiu served tea, Mo Wenlong got up, and Lao Gouzi personally escorted the guests out. On the way, the two also exchanged a few things about Master Jiu's likes and taboos, and reached a consensus that both parties were satisfied with.
As soon as they finished here, Lin Yutong received a message, "The day after tomorrow?"
Zheng Jia lowered his head, "Yes! It's decided the day after tomorrow."
Time is really tight.
Lin Yutong stood up and said, "Tell someone to prepare. I will go to Mo Mansion right away."
He walked out of the inn in a low-key manner, got off the carriage in a less crowded place, and his substitute quickly got on. When the carriage went far away, he saw Xiao Niangan staring at him in surprise.
Lin Yutong smiled: "What are you looking at?"
"No...it's nothing..." Xiao Nianzhan grinned and smiled, "I miss you, but it's better for you, she is not kind at all..."
This is speaking ill of the substitute.
Lin Yutong smiled and said nothing. The two of them were dressed like Taoist nuns and walked three to five miles before entering the city.
As soon as he entered the city gate, he was stopped by the steward of the Mo family, "Xiangu, please tell us to wait. My wife has been on a hunger strike for the past two days. No doctor has asked to see her. She only wants to find you. Aunt Bai sent us here.
Wait. If you don't come, the little ones will have no choice but to hang themselves."
oh?
Is there such a thing?
If the servants hadn't been too talkative, it would have been impossible to know. After all, Madam is on a hunger strike, but Lord Mo Wenlong and Mo have been very busy these two days, and there is no idle time here or there.
Xiao Niangan curled his lips vaguely, looking very disdainful of the man.
Sitting in the Mo family's carriage, they headed all the way to the Mo family. After entering the second gate, Aunt Bai was waiting at the second gate just like last time. As soon as she saw Lin Yutong coming, she hurriedly greeted her, "You're finally here. If you don't
Come on, I have no choice but to hang myself."
His face was very ugly.
When Lin Yutong saw her taking him to the main courtyard, he paused and looked very apologetic, "Madam's illness cannot be urgent, so it is better to go and see the young master first. The young man is young after all, so we can't delay..."
I'm already jumping around, what's there to see?
A trace of gloom flashed in Aunt Bai's eyes. There really was no place that Chen Qiuniang's hands couldn't reach. They had just met her once before, and the Taoist nun who had agreed to treat Madam immediately left. This time it was easy.
He came, but he went to her side first. What kind of secret did he use?
She was speechless, but Lin Yutong kept walking and went directly to Aunt Chen's yard without anyone leading her.
Aunt Chen was surprised by this person's arrival and smiled solemnly, "... I'm sorry to hear that the fairy is worried. My son is already safe, but you've been wasting your time in vain..."
Lin Yutong said it was okay, and then talked about raising children and some small remedies for various common diseases in children. It is difficult to give medicine to children when they are small. These small prescriptions also use ingredients, plus some massage.
Small methods can indeed have a very good effect.
After saying this, Aunt Chen really listened. Regardless of how she treats others, she treats her own son with a loving mother's heart, without any adulteration.
After delaying for half an hour, Lin Yutong stood up and said goodbye, "When I talk about this, I forget the time. What a sin. I think I have been busy in your house for the past two days, so I am bothering you..."
Aunt Chen was stunned for a moment, then shook her head slightly, "You're welcome..."
After exchanging pleasantries, he sent Lin Yutong to the entrance of the small courtyard, and then turned back. After returning, he waved to the little girl next to him, "Go and find out, what happened in the house?"
Why do you talk about the busy things in the house so easily?
Now that girl Bai Ju is so tormented, she really has become a deaf ear - a decoration.
Lin Yutong walked out from here and went to the main courtyard. This time, people were not anxious anymore and left Lin Yutong hanging aside.
Aunt Bai came in and was as kind as ever. She just said: "You are neglecting the fairy. I will ask the fairy to go back today. I'm really sorry. My aunt sent someone from the capital to talk to the madam. I'm afraid these days
No days are allowed to be empty."
The meaning of this is that I don’t want the girl who married into the Zhang family in the capital to know the true situation of her own mother.
Anyway, Mrs. Mo would definitely not want her daughter to follow Xuan Xin. She had to eat when it was time to eat. She had to fool around for a few days before talking about it.
Lin Yutong lowered his eyelids, "It's human nature and I can understand it." After saying that, he stood up and left, "Let's wait for ten days. By then, Madam will be done with her work, and Mr. Mo will have finished entertaining the distinguished guests. There will be some free time.
The time has come."
Aunt Bai kept saying: "Yes! Yes! I'm so sorry." She asked someone to bring some money, and the little sticks were all accepted, and then she followed Lin Yutong out of the house.
After they were sent away, Aunt Bai changed her expression and called her mother-in-law over, "Let me ask, what distinguished guests do you want to entertain?"
This Taoist girl probably heard something from that bitch Chen Qiuniang.
The master doesn't know either, the wife doesn't know, and she doesn't know either, but Chen Qiuniang knows.
Really... She closed her eyes and looked towards the side courtyard next to her, with a chilling look in her eyes.
Xiao Nianzhan got on the carriage and pouted while loading the money, "I thought I could follow you for a few more days? Who would have thought... Why are there so many things going on in the Mo family? When we entered, we hadn't heard that the aunt sent anyone.
Come on, we’ve only been in here for a while, and already there are distinguished guests.” He said with concern, “It won’t delay us.”
Where will the delay be?
There are so many coincidences in the world.
The so-called people sent by the Zhang family's aunt are just people sent by Wang Jia to pretend to be.
As for why such an arrangement was made, Lin Yutong smiled and slowly closed his eyes. How could one fishing line be enough? The more lines you cast, the more chances you have of catching big fish.
She wouldn't say this to Xiao Niangan. She looked like she was only twelve or thirteen years old, and her eyes were very clear. When it came to loyalty, she was certainly not bad. She couldn't help but think of Hong Jing.
It's the most appropriate age to be by Hongjing's side.
So when he saw the girl constantly touching the silver in her arms, she smiled and said, "You really want to stay with me?"
Xiao Nianzhan's eyes lit up, "I think so! Why don't you want to?" She pouted, then lowered her head, "I'm afraid it won't work." The rules are strict.
Lin Yutong laughed and said, "Follow them first. After a while, I promise to get you to come to me."
When she went back in the evening, she asked Wang Jia about Xiao Niangan, "How old is he? Where are his parents and relatives?"
Wang Jia was surprised that his master would fall in love with such a girl. To be honest, apart from being good at kung fu, this child was not very qualified in anything else. Therefore, when she was twelve years old, she really went out for the first time, "...
It's an accident to say the least. This child is a drifter who drifted along the river to our... territory."
This is the secret base where they train.
"Zheng Jia led people to train in the river. A wooden basin floated over and was installed. There was a child inside who was still alive. He called for rescue and called him Liu'er. He had never left the house, and everyone at the door was watching.
When I grow up, it’s inevitable that I’ll be pampered a little bit…”
It can be seen that those eyes are eyes that have seen too many Yinsi.
Lin Yutong felt more at ease knowing her origins, "Protect her carefully and transfer her to me after she returns to Beijing..."
Of course that's good.
When she thought of the Queen's precious Shi Gege, she felt enlightened. If Liu'er could serve Shi Gege, it would be a blessing that could not be asked for. It would be much better than this shameful job.
She hurriedly responded, thinking of saying thank you but feeling that she had no position, so she lowered her head and slowly backed away, thinking that she would give the girl a few words when she had the opportunity, and not to be so stupid all the time.
As soon as Wang Jia left, Zheng Jia came over and reported, "Two groups of people from the Mo family left the house one after another. Instead of going to Xi Keju, they went to a brothel in Yingchun Pavilion."
If Xi Keju is like the snow lotus on the high mountain in Fengyue Place, then Yingchun Pavilion is like the wild chrysanthemum growing in the corner of the house. There is no comparison between the two.
Not everyone has the opportunity to see the beauty of snow lotus, but as for wild chrysanthemum, as long as you are willing, anyone can pick it. Even a peddler and a lackey can spend dozens of copper coins to find a girl who is willing to have sex.
If people hadn't been staring at the Mo family, who would have thought that Xi Keju and Yingchun Pavilion were actually the same family.
In fact, Yingchun Pavilion is the hardest place to keep an eye on people. The number of people coming and going here is really too complicated.
In the high-rise courtyard in front, there were music and dancing, and the guests were all wealthy guests who could bargain for high prices. Those who entered through the side door were all occasional businessmen who were willing to spend three to five taels of silver and could not afford to attract popular girls.
, but the girls here are really good, and they are all people they could never remember in the past. A new generation replaces the old ones, but the old ones are only as good as the old ones. Anyway, everyone gets what they need. Once again, they are on the same level.
Yes, you are either old or out of shape, so go to the backyard. The backyard is also big, and the people entertained by the back door are all small people. These people are willing to pay thirty cents for a night's sleep, but are reluctant to spend eighty cents.
Therefore, there are many people who pick up their pants and leave after finishing their work. They come and go, sometimes without stopping all night.
People have entered, but they cannot tell where they will exit.
Zheng Jia explained the difficulty, and Lin Yutong looked ugly, but still nodded to express understanding.
In fact, there is no need to investigate further, it is enough to know that there is a connection between the two.
In Yingchun Pavilion, in a remote courtyard with the entrance blocked by a rockery, sitting in the main hall was a woman with a pockmarked face, in her forties, holding two letters in her hand, weighing them back and forth.
After a short while, the door rang, and she knocked twice in a cycle of three long and two short. She knew that the person she was waiting for had arrived.
The woman who came in was slim and tall, wearing a black dress and a black bonnet on her head, covering her face tightly.
The pockmarked woman frowned, disapproving of the other party's attire. The place was brightly lit, and she was wearing black clothes and covering herself up so tightly. How could she not attract attention? What could she do if she acted ugly?
It's a pity that I have said it many times and never listened.
The other party took off his hat and didn't take the other party's dissatisfaction into consideration at all. He said, "Invite me over at this point. What's the matter?"
Isn't this nonsense?
The pitted woman handed over the thing in her hand, "Look, this is the consequence of you arranging people again."
The woman in black sneered, "I have a problem with my people. If the person you arrange is useful, will I give up Bai Ju? Do you know how much effort I put into that child."
To be continued...
