Zhe Jinchun

Chapter 35 Xue Shilang

Mrs. Wu had already straightened her face, and the indifference on her face turned into coldness.

She gave Qin Su a cold look, then suddenly turned to Lin who was beside her, and said unhurriedly: "Liu Niang's rules are too bad, and she talks too much. You must teach me well in the future."

Lin quickly got up and responded softly: "I would like to obey Jungu's order."

She got up together, and as soon as the juniors got up, they all stood up in the direction of Mrs. Wu, and the Dongxuan Pavilion was completely silent.

"Forget it, sit down." Mrs. Wu said something as if forgiving, Fang Lin sat down again, and everyone returned to their seats again.

After sitting down, Mrs. Lin frowned and looked at Qin Su: "Liu Niang, you have returned to the house now, so you have to be in the countryside, and you must be unruly. When the elders ask you, you can answer whatever you ask, and you can't say anything else." Don't worry about it. This time it's fine, if it happens again in the future, don't blame me for being strict as a mother." At the end of the speech, her face was already stern
Qin Shifang rolled her eyes, and smiled to smooth things over: "Forget it, Liu Niang finally returned home, she is not sensible, don't scare her." Then she smiled at Qin Su again, and said in a harmonious voice : "Now you just talk, do you have those three volumes with you?"

Her tone was very urgent, and her body leaned forward again.

There was ridicule in Qin Su's lowered eyes, but when she raised her head, her face was full of annoyance, and she said in a low voice, "I shouldn't have refused to answer my grandmother's question with my aunt, but I just thought about it for a long time. I don’t remember if there are any books in the cage, I have to ask Ali.”

"Who is Ah Li?" Qin Shifang asked impatiently, and felt impolite after speaking, and smiled at Lin sarcastically.

The Lin family, on the other hand, was calm and gentle, and said softly: "A Li is Liuniang's maid, who was brought up from Lianyun Farm, and is the daughter of Zhuangtou Qin."

Who doesn't know that Lianyun Farm is the private property of Mrs. Tai?Since Ali is the daughter of Zhuangtou, she is also the wife of Mrs. Tai.

Qin Shifang nodded, not knowing if she understood Lin's meaning, she said with a smile, "Then call her over and ask." After speaking, she glanced at Mrs. Wu again, "What do you think, mother?"

"Yes." Mrs. Wu said expressionlessly, and looked at Jiang Yu beside her.

Jiang Yu immediately bowed out, and after a while, Ali followed her in.

Ah Li still lacked some insight, she was a little timid standing in this magnificent room, and her movements of saluting were quite unfamiliar.

Madam Wu didn't pick her eyes, she still had a face neither happy nor sad.

Lin who was on the side said: "Don't be afraid, Ah Li, I called you here because I have something to ask you. Liu Niang said that you collected all her boxes and cages. Let me ask you, are there any books in it?"

Ah Li glanced at Qin Su, saw that she looked calm, so she plucked up her courage, and replied: "There are no books. The girl said that you should not rush to bring heavy things. I will ask Ah Tuo to bring them back later, and I will take the books." They all stayed at the farm."

Lin nodded when she heard the words, not surprised by Ali's statement.

She already knew the reason why Uncle Fu and A Tuo stayed in the farm, and the servants sent to pick up Qin Su had already reported it to her.

"Who is Ah Tuo?" Mrs. Wu frowned, she didn't remember that there was such a servant in the mansion.

Mrs. Lin said softly: "A Tuo and A Fu are a couple. They used to serve Mrs. Zhao, the concubine. After Mrs. Zhao entered the mansion, I sent them to the farm. Don't say that Aunt Jun has never seen them , I have never seen it before.”

These two were bought by Mrs. Zhao, when Mrs. Zhao returned home with her daughter, how could Mrs. Lin allow her to bring her own people?He directly asked for the contract of the two of them and sent them to the farm without even seeing what they looked like.Mrs. Tai also acquiesced in this matter, otherwise the two would not have gone to Lianyun Farm.

Mrs. Wu said "Oh", and Qin Shifang asked Mrs. Lin again: "Since they are serving Liu Niang, why didn't they go back home?"

She was eager to get those rare volumes, and she was very concerned about everything related to them.

Lin's brows were slightly frowned, but she couldn't ignore the sister-in-law, so she had to tell her about Uncle Fu and A Tuo's sudden illness.

"As my mother said, Uncle Fu and A Tuo were very ill, and I was in a hurry to go on my way, which almost delayed my return home, so I didn't bring any books with me." Before Lin Shi finished speaking, Qin Su's Then the voice rang out.There was a little flattery on her face, as if she was ashamed that she didn't bring the book back.

Lin's expression froze slightly, and her lips moved, but Qin Su had already continued: "Fortunately, Qin Zhuangtou asked A Sheng to help drive the car, so I was able to come back in time. A Sheng is amazing. I met you in Taomujian. At the time of the bandits, thanks to him turning the car around and being rescued by Lord Xue, we were able to escape."

She spoke smoothly and quickly, as if she was eager to excuse herself, and after she finished speaking, she carefully looked at Mrs. Wu's face.

Madam Wu's usually indifferent eyes suddenly shot two bright lights, and her body straightened all of a sudden.

"Mr. Xue's family?" She asked loudly, not concealing the shock in her expression: "What is Mr. Xue's family, please explain clearly, Liu Niang."

As worthy of being the mother of an official's wife, Mrs. Wu keenly grasped the most important word in Qin Su's dialect in an instant.

Qin Su looked at Mrs. Wu in confusion, and blinked: "Grandmother, I'm talking about Mr. Xue's family in Dadu."

"Dadu... Could it be... Linqiu Xue's family?" Qin Shifang couldn't help raising her voice, her expression both excited and nervous.

"My aunt hit it as soon as she said it." Qin Su smiled like a child, and there was no hint of scheming in his expression, "It was Mr. Erlang from Linqiu Xue's family who escorted me back."

"Escort? You?" Qin Shifang raised her voice higher, her protruding eyeballs almost bursting out of their sockets.

If shock has weight, Qin Su doubts very much that Qin Shifang will shake the roof down.The eagerness and joy in that expression were too obvious, so obvious that Qin Su dared not look directly at him.

"Liu Niang said that you were escorted back to the mansion by Mr. Xue's family?" Mrs. Wu couldn't keep calm anymore, her voice trembled slightly, and she looked at Qin Su with dazzling eyes.

Qin Su nodded blankly: "Yes, Xue Erlang and I ran into each other outside Zhangcheng. Xue Erlang said that he would also come to Qingzhou and invited me to go with him. I... I was a little scared by myself. There are many servants, so... I agreed."

She waited for Ai Ai to finish saying this, then looked at Mrs. Wu again, as if she was a little worried: "Grandmother, did A Su...do something wrong?"

"No mistake, no mistake, why is Liu Niang wrong?" Qin Shifang couldn't help it anymore, his whole face was full of smiles, and his face was always radiant.

It is unexpected good news that the Linqiu Xue family has such a relationship with the Qin family.

"Does my wife know about this?" Mrs. Wu has already looked at Mrs. Lin at this time, her brows and eyes are once again indifferent.

Qin Su lowered her head, the smile in her eyes seemed to be ridiculed or cold.

As she expected, Mrs. Lin firmly suppressed the matter of the Xue family.

However, how can this matter be suppressed?How many pairs of eyes saw Xue's carriage returning to Qingzhou with Qin Su, how many days can such a big event be kept secret?

Qin Su thought that Lin's refusal to speak about this matter was simply because she didn't want her concubine to be in the limelight.But this limelight Qin Su really can't come out, and must come out at this time, not a moment earlier, not a moment later.

　Thank you for the peace talisman like Bing.I have to work an extra day this week, but fortunately, victory is already in sight.Have a great weekend.
