Chapter 458 The Outwardly Loving Couple
“Second Prince went to the pastry store?” Qu Mo Ying’s hand stroked lightly on the strings of the zither, and the sound of the zither came to a halt, only a slight tremor emanating from the slender fingertips.
“Yes, Zhao Gongzi’s side sent someone over and asked if we let the Second Gongzi go over, the slave girl said she didn’t know about it, Zhao Gongzi’s person said that when the Second Gongzi went over he said he was looking for the shopkeeper again and again and looking for some old person, looking at this he seemed to be quite attached, and he also repeatedly inquired about where the shopkeeper had gone!”
Sister Miao said.
She happened to come back from outside and met this door-to-door boy when she was at the door, and when she heard that he was looking for her own young lady, Sister Miao purposely called the man over to one side and carefully inquired about him.
This matter let Qu Mo Ying quite surprised, Qu Qiu Yan fancy their own store, still say the past, now how even Qu Mingcheng also intervene.
Qu Mingcheng has been very cautious since the last time, what’s going on right now? To appease Qu Qiuyan? The matter of Qu Qiuyan going to the study and being scolded and cried by Qu Zhizhen, Qu Mo Ying here already knew about it.
She was not surprised by this, right now Qu Zhizhen’s heart burning fire ruffled difficult, Qu Qiuyan this is adding oil to the fire, do not get scolded is strange!
“What else was said?” After a moment of silence, Quemoy Ying asked.
“What Mr. Zhao’s side means, if Miss wants those old people, it’s fine, but let’s pay for them!” Sister Miao said.
This thing sounds like she didn’t understand, and the boy over there just said to pass it on to the young lady to listen to it.
What do you want to buy? Miss want those store old man what, Miao Sister before know those old man are related to the second lady, but also are the second lady before the use of smooth, to the second lady is also loyal to the very, before she has been to the store to see those people, how to ask also did not ask what to, the teeth bite very tight.
Since he was not one of Yue’s old men and was still the Second Lady’s lackey, what was the point of staying!
“Mr. Zhao said that?” Qu Mo Ying said in surprise, her long eyelashes fluttered twice, casting jagged shadows on her small white face, her features exquisite and absolutely beautiful.
“That’s what it said, and the old slave thought that since it said that, it should be what Miss wanted, so he let them keep the manpower and said that Miss would send someone to pay for it.” Sister Miao said.
Qu Mo Ying nodded, “Sister did a good job, since we want to leave it to us, let’s buy it, the left is nothing more than a few subordinates, but I don’t know what kind of people this Mr. Zhao purposely left behind.”
These people should have all been demobilized, there were actually people left in the hands of this Zhao Gongzi, Qu Mo Ying felt both surprised and not so surprised.
“Sister, why don’t you take a trip, just go with Yudong to receive the people, and then check these people, I guess there should still be the shopkeeper that the second prince has his eyes on in here.”
A hint of coldness flashed under Qu Mo Ying’s eyes, and his pair of almond eyes brimmed with depth when he raised them.
No wind can’t afford waves, Qu Mingcheng’s this accidental meddling in, but let her pay attention to this matter, originally just don’t want to let Qu Qiuyan have her way, and by the way, the Yu’s minions are dealt with, is considered to be a hundred years old.
There were quite a few stores left behind by my mother, and this one was not too big or too small, and the situation was so unique that it was simply disposed of.
I didn’t realize there was an accident involved.
Qu Mingcheng is not Qu Qiuyan, so something is really going on in there!
“Yes, Miss!” Yu Dong nodded his head, already understood Qu Mo Ying’s meaning, this matter let him do it is really just right, before he wanted to check the matter of the shopkeeper, Miss said it’s not a big deal, and said that when the time comes to put it out together on the line, he felt that the shopkeeper’s eyes were thieving and slippery at that time.
Qu Zhizhen sat in his study, his face somber, his hand on the table, squeezing and releasing, releasing and squeezing.
The boy stood behind him, did not dare to say a word, trembling and lowered his head, since the third young lady left, he came in to serve, his own master has been this way, looking extremely oozing.
The boy served Qu Zhizhen for so many years, he had never seen Qu Zhizhen so angry, the third young miss had really messed with the master.
A steward came in and poked around the doorway, the boy looked at Qu Zhizhen and saw that he wasn’t paying attention, the horse carefully stepped out from the side: “What is it?”
“Liu Shangshu visit!” The steward rubbed his hands and said, he just came in to report, but felt that the study was too quiet, in the end did not dare to come in to report.
The boy hurried in to report.
“Master, Mr. Liu Shangshu has come to the door.”
“Hurry up and please!” Qu Zhizhen’s face miraculously calmed down, stood up, turned the bookcase to stride outside, and directly welcomed him.
At the main entrance, when Shangshu Liu saw Qu Zhizhen come out, his expression was natural: “Servant Qu.”
“Lord Shangshu, please!” Qu Zhizhen also smiled and bowed before heading inside to welcome the guests.
Didn’t go to the study, went to the living room in the outer courtyard, sat down in the small living room, the boy brought tea, the two people picked up the tea and took a sip before putting it down at the same time.
“Servant Qu, when I went out just now, I heard something, I wonder if Servant Qu has heard of it?” Shangshu Liu faintly said.
“I’ve also heard about it, and am looking into this matter.” Qu Zhizhen’s face revealed a few moments of annoyance, “I don’t know who is spreading the rumor about this kind of thing, Yue’s is a light-hearted person, how could there be such a thing!”
Shangshu Liu’s gaze landed on Qu Zhizhen’s face, his smile was gentle, “It’s best that Servant Qu can think this way, I heard about such rumors and made a special trip to the door to take a look, it’s best that Servant Qu didn’t misunderstand.”
“Shangshu Liu is polite.” Qu Zhizhen was also nice, with a smile piled on his face, looking as if he really didn’t care at all.
“Since it’s fine, I’ll take my leave now!” Shangshu Liu stood up.
Qu Zhizhen also hurriedly followed and stood up, “It’s rare to come over once, why doesn’t Shangshu Liu stay for dinner?”
“The lady of the house is waiting, but it is inconvenient, next time there is a chance to make an appointment.” Liu Shangshu pointed to his sleeve and laughed.
“Then it is my humble servant who is being abrupt.” Qu Zhizhen was not in a position to stay since.
The two were polite and courteous all the way to the door, and in the end, it was Qu Zhizhen who paid his respects to Liu Shangshu before watching him leave.
When he left, immediately his face sank, cold snort, returned to the mansion traveled ……
Liu Shangshu got off the carriage in his own residence and led the boy towards the study, but hesitated at the place of the intersection and turned around decisively to march towards the inner courtyard.
The granny at the hanging flower door once she saw her own adult over, hurriedly salute, to be Liu Shangshu walked through, called a small maid commanded a couple of sentences, let her hurry to report to the lady, the adult this has been a long time did not enter the inner courtyard, it looks like today is to look for the lady, that’s a good thing ah!
The little maid took a shortcut and ran away.
Shangshu House of the inner courtyard of the largest courtyard is not the main lady’s live, Mrs. Liu’s courtyard near the back door, although also large, but not the location of the sense of the main courtyard, Liu Shangshu came over, full of yards of maids are excited.
They hadn’t seen the male master in a long time either.
In the main room, Mrs. Qi sat with a face full of anticipation, her hand pressed on the corner of the table seemingly calm, but in fact not calm at all.
Hearing a voice at the door hurriedly raised his head, right on Liu Shangshu’s face that and strict plate, could not help but froze for a moment, but then both stood up, to Liu Shangshu a slight smile, salute: “Husband this time how to have time to come over?”
Shangshu Liu didn’t say anything, only staring at Mrs. Qi with her back, and didn’t tell her to get up.
Mrs. Qi could barely stand and looked up in aggravation, “Husband?”
“Qi Xiejiao, how long do you plan to make a scene?” Liu Shangshu finally spoke.
Mrs. Qi froze for a moment and slowly stood up straight and straightened her back, only the corners of her eyes brought a tearful look, “Husband, I don’t understand what you mean?”
“Don’t you understand? Qi Xiejiao, if there’s anyone in this world who doesn’t understand, it’s definitely not you!” Liu Shangshu laughed coldly with a mocking face.
“Husband, what exactly is the meaning?” The delicate softness on Mrs. Qi’s face receded, revealing a hint of anger, “Husband never entered the door in the past, and when he came in today, he said such words, but it makes me really not understand, and where did he do a bad job to make Husband dislike it so much and say such words.”
“I hate it? Yes, I resent it, but does it work? Is it too late?” Liu Shangshu nonchalantly said, eyes a cold cleaner, “Qi Xiejiao, you’ve got everything you want, what else do you want, how else do you want it? Now even the reputation of a deceased person, are not spared?”
“Husband, I don’t understand what you mean? However, your words before, I do understand, since you didn’t refuse the marriage back then, what is said now is said to be late, so what if Husband even regretted it, as for the rest, I don’t know.” Mrs. Qi sighed, her complexion eased again, “Husband, it’s been so many years, she’s already gone, so what if you’re still griping about it?”
“Qi Xiejiao, don’t say that the things rumored outside have nothing to do with you at all, if there is still an innocent person in this world, it is definitely not you.” Liu Shangshu coldly laughed unmoved, his gaze looking towards Mrs. Qi with a bit of hatred, “If I hear such rumors again, Qi Xiejiao, you know, I won’t be able to tolerate it any longer.”
Sean Ryu turned around after saying that.
When he went out, he almost bumped into Liu Jingyu, who had only just hurried over from the door.
“Father!” Liu Jingyu hurriedly took a step back in line.
Shangshu Liu stopped and gave her a stern look, “Jingyu, you must not learn from your mother.”
After throwing down such a headless sentence, he turned around and left in big strides.
Liu Jingyu frowned her willow eyebrows and watched Liu Shangshu leave, she just got the news and hurried over, just afraid that her parents would quarrel again, and now it seems that they have really quarreled again.
Only when I reached the door, I suddenly saw that the door of the main house was closed, and the Chen Sister beside my mother was guarding the door, looking like she was not letting herself in again.
“Sister Chen, mother doesn’t want to see me again?” Liu Jingyu laughed bitterly, every time this time of the year, mother had someone guard the door of the house, not allowing herself to go in, alone and grieving alone.
“Prefect ruler, you’d better go back first, madam needs to be quiet at this time, she doesn’t have the heart to talk to you.” Sister Chen lowered her voice and sighed as she said, she had followed Mrs. Qi in marrying from the Duke of Qi’s residence, and the scene at hand was not one or two times already.
Outsiders only say that Liu Shangshu husband and wife and beautiful, but in fact? It’s just injustice. ……
