Chapter 372 Huo Mu Daily [Part [-]]

[Still accumulating power for the lord...]

It was another four or five days in a flash.

These days, Jiao Shun is busy with official duties, and at the same time decides to give Jia Yun the goddaughter he just recognized.

Jia Yun walked happily these days, and took the initiative to share more official duties without waiting for Laiwang's supervision, as if she was going to do her best for her "father-in-law".

Not to mention this.

But when it came to June [-]th, Jiao Shun and Xiumu met again...

…………

Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

After these few days of recuperation, Lin Daiyu's condition has improved greatly, her fever has subsided, and her cough has gradually decreased. She ran out of medicine early this morning, and she even took the initiative to ask Zijuan and Xueyan to help her get up and change her clothes.

When Sister Lin was fully dressed and sat in front of the dressing table, Zijuan pulled her hair, looked at her reflection in the mirror and said with a smile: "The girl looks much better, thanks to Aunt Xing who sent someone to ask about it sooner or later. There are so many good medicinal materials—I don’t know where she bought them, but they are better than those in our mansion.”

Xueyan was putting the bottles and jars of rouge and water powder on the table, when she heard this, she immediately said: "What's so strange about this, Mr. Jiao has a business in Yunnan and Guizhou, and there are many medicines there that can nourish the lungs and relieve coughs. As a result, it is right for our girl's illness—my sister has been much better since I didn't see our girl a while ago? If it wasn't for this time...thankfully nothing major happened, and the girl would never dare to mess around alone again in the future!"

"When did I mess around?"

Lin Daiyu took off the rouge red paper, gave Xueyan a sick look, and said without waiting for Xueyan's rebuttal: "I've been bored for a few days, I want to go out for a walk."

Xueyan immediately forgot to quarrel with her, and hurriedly said: "Then let's help the girl to go around the yard? It's morning and night, it's cool in Xiangzhu Forest."

Lin Daiyu shook her head slightly, frowned her delicate eyebrows, and said lightly, "I want to go and see my second sister."

Hearing the word "Second Sister", Zijuan couldn't help sighing behind her: "Although I haven't been there for a few days, I have heard a few discussions from Cui Ling and Shi Shu, and the second girl still guards the book every day. "Tai Shang Induction Sutra", but the words become less and less -- well, these two girls are really unlucky, if they were engaged to Uncle Jiao back then, how could such a thing happen?"

Xueyan also sighed, and added: "I heard that sister Xiuju has been ill for a while—it's a pity that she is not as lucky as sister Siqi, and she just happened to catch up with Aunt Xing to get married..."

If there is no special reason, the fate of the close maid is basically tied to the master, so she only thinks that Xiuju is afraid of marrying into the Sun's family, but she doesn't know that Xiuju has already got Jiao Shun's promise, so it was a waste of time The sentimentality of sympathy.

The three of them were so emotional that they lost the interest to talk.

After finishing their makeup, the two escorted Lin Daiyu out of the Xiaoxiang Hall, one on the left and the other on the right.

The Xiaoxiang Pavilion is located in the southwest of the Grand View Garden. It was supposed to go north to the Zhuijin Tower, but Zijuan suddenly realized that Mrs. Wang had sent people to visit several times in the past few days. Since you can go out for a walk, you should go for a walk first.

Although Lin Daiyu and the second aunt hate each other, she still has to take into account the etiquette on the surface.

So he turned to the east, preparing to pass the Qinfang Pavilion Bridge in front of the main gate, pass the Ou Xiangxie, Yihong Courtyard, Quicui Nunnery, etc., to the Qingtang thatched cottage in the northeast corner.

She didn't want to see Jiao Shun walking out of the Qinfang Pavilion in the middle of the bridge as soon as she walked to the bridge. Lin Daiyu remembered Xing Xiuyan's joke about "Jianyou" earlier, and two blushes immediately appeared on her originally white and jade-like face.

He intends to stay away, but Jiao Shun has already seen this side. He has inherited so many favors from the Jiao family, so how can he avoid him inexplicably?
Thinking of those 'jokes', Sister Xing might not tell Brother Jiao, Lin Daiyu hesitated for a moment, but she took the initiative to greet her and greeted her with a blessing, then raised her head and smiled and asked, "Why is Brother Jiao coming to this garden today when you have time?"

Jiao Shun has always favored plump women, and although he has ambitions for Lin Daiyu, he has always been a little bit off, but now he is surprised by this smile.

For this so-called 'morbid beauty', Jiao Shun has always only heard the voice but not the person, but Lin Daiyu, who is recovering from a serious illness, seems to have brought these three words to the fullest!
Even a scumbag like him who has spent two lifetimes rolling among women, in front of that exquisite beauty that is so delicate and weak that it seems to break at the touch of a touch, can't help but have the urge to protect Sister Lin for the rest of her life.

It's strange that at the beginning of the year, Xue Pan jumped into the river because of her.

Fortunately, Jiao Shun has gone through a lot of storms in the past few years. Although his heart is turbulent, he can still maintain the basic etiquette on the surface. I sent a tricycle and a rickshaw here, and I originally thought that I would wait for Brother Bao to comment on it before deciding on the next production and sales plan, who knows..."

He spread his hands and said helplessly: "Who knows that I haven't seen any news from Brother Bao after waiting for several days. Taking advantage of today's rest, I have no choice but to come to the door again."

Although this business is not an important matter, the emperor is short-tempered after all, if he feels that he is ineffective, wouldn't it be a waste of God's grace?
Hearing that it was Baoyu's fault again, Lin Daiyu nodded slightly without surprise, and Xueyan beside him couldn't help interjecting: "It's just a coincidence that the uncle came, and the second master Bao is probably not at home now."

"Why, he went outside to visit friends?"

Jiao Shun was surprised and said: "But I just asked the gatekeeper's mother-in-law, and they all said that Brother Bao is at home."

"At home is at home, but not at his small home - I heard that he has been running to the Changcui Nunnery these days, and he can stay there for twelve hours a day!"

That day Jia Baoyu ran into a wall with his uncle, and when he came home, he just smashed it. He didn't want to, but accidentally found out the verses and Zen poems he had written before, and he had an "epiphany" again, feeling that the mundane world is full of troubles. You have to go to that cool and comfortable place to be detached.

To say that there are quite a lot of family temples in the Grand View Garden, there are twenty or thirty Taoist nuns in total, but when Baoyu thinks of a quiet place, only Changcui Temple is in his mind—there is no other reason, the twenty or thirty Taoist nuns Adding nuns together is not as beautiful as Miaoyu.

But when he heard that Xueyan had the intention of mocking Baoyu, Jiao Shun secretly praised her, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Miss Xueyan for reminding me, then I just go straight to Changcui Temple - after all, this is Shangcui Temple. I don't want to delay too much."

After saying that, she turned her head and told Lin Daiyu: "Sister Lin is recovering now, but after all, she is recovering from a serious illness and can't bear the fatigue. If you want to travel far, you might as well fetch the rickshaw and let the servants take turns to pull it away."

"Thank you, Brother Jiao, for caring."

Lin Daiyu always felt awkward in the face of Jiao Shun's concern because of the 'concomitant' rhetoric, and subconsciously turned her head, revealing a section of white neck: "I just walk casually in this garden, there is no need to mobilize people."

Jiao Shun saw that she was in a bit of embarrassment, so he said goodbye in a hurry, and walked away briskly.

Xue Yan watched Jiao Shun's tall back disappear around the corner, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "This is the way to do great things, it's like the second master Bao will be entangled when he sees a beautiful woman."

Lin Daiyu frowned: "Why do you mention him so politely?"

As he said that, he took the initiative to choose a path different from Jiao Shun's, and headed towards Qingtang thatched cottage.

But when Jiao Shun came to the hillside where Changcui Nunnery was, he heard the clear and melodious sound of the qin coming from the forest. He knew it must be Miaoyu's handwriting, so he followed the sound and found it outside the gate of the nunnery, relying on his tall stature to stand on tiptoe Feet peek inside.

In the side hall with the door wide open, Miaoyu, who rarely changed into secular dress, was sitting on her knees playing the piano with fluttering sleeves and skirt like an umbrella, and Jia Baoyu, who was shaking his head and intoxicated by the rhythm, was only a curl away. A rising little censer.

That white dress coupled with her cold and delicate facial features gave people the impression that she should have been independent from the world, but at this time, she felt that she was full of body and mind for someone.

Bah~
WTF!

Jiao Shun spat sourly, this fake nun put on a noble face in front of Xiuyan, and didn't she prostrate herself in front of Xiaobailian in private? !

"cough~"

He cleared his throat heavily, and interrupted the "playing the piano against cows" in a rough voice: "Dare to ask if Brother Bao is in the temple?"

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and then Miaoyu's cold voice was faintly heard from inside: "I am not a vulgar here, if you want to welcome him in, I can only invite you out."

Not long after, when the courtyard door opened, Jia Baoyu slipped out along the crack, and then hurriedly closed the door behind his back, as if he was afraid that Jiao Shun would rush in and disturb people's cleanliness.

Bah~
What the hell, if Uncle Jiao is willing to go in? !

Jiao Shun spat secretly again, he became more and more displeased with this Miaoyu, but said with a smile on his face: "Brother Bao is really here, so it's easy for me to find it."

Jia Baoyu was a little puzzled when he heard the words: "Brother Jiao, what do you want me to do? Could it be that you have a new car?"

As he spoke, he poked his head around and looked behind Jiao Shun.

Seeing his ignorant look, Jiao Shun couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and said with a wry smile: "Didn't brother forget that we agreed to discuss the establishment of a factory? Your Majesty's share of the money has already been transferred to the account of the inner government." , how can we delay any longer?"

"This……"

Only then did Jia Baoyu suddenly realize that he only wanted to be quiet these few days, so he still remembers the great cause of building cars?

Especially since this matter involved tens of thousands of taels of silver...

He scratched his face embarrassingly, and said falteringly: "Actually, this kind of thing can't be done overnight. Let's take a long-term plan and take a long-term plan."

"Then make a plan quickly!"

Although Jiao Shun had already seen in the Ministry of Industry that the old bureaucrats honed foreign workers' ability to play football, seeing Jia Baoyu's expression of "definitely next time", he was still angry.

He dragged him back to the Yihong Courtyard, and was about to take out the articles of association he had drawn up to show this boy what high efficiency is, when Caixia came looking for her in a hurry, saying that the wife had invited her, and that she was asking for Jiao. The uncle and the second master Bao went there together.

Both Jiao Shun and Jia Baoyu were a bit puzzled, but since Mrs. Wang wanted to recruit, they naturally had to go there.

…………

at the same time.

Aunt Zhao and Jia Tanchun, mother and daughter, gathered again in Qiushuangzhai.

Compared with the previous posture of incompatibility, now that they have a common goal, the relationship between the two has eased a lot.

I saw Tanchun bound the booklet with the new copy, flipped through a few pages irritably, threw it on the table suddenly, shook his head and said, "It wasn't her, she was indeed at home that night and never went out."

"This……"

Aunt Zhao couldn't believe it for a while, but at the same time she was both grateful and scared. She was so lucky that she didn't make it clear at the time, otherwise wouldn't it be the same as throwing herself into a trap?

But if it wasn't Li Wan that night, who could it be?
Is there any other woman in this garden who is well-clothed and well-fed, delicate and fleshy, coquettish, and whose desires are hard to satisfy?

Thinking of these conditions, Aunt Zhao subconsciously looked to the northeast, thinking that it would be difficult to deal with that person—Jiao Shun may not be biased towards herself, if he joins hands with her...

Aunt Zhao shuddered, and suddenly heard Jia Tanchun firmly said: "Auntie, don't think about it, it can't be your wife that night!"

"Okay~"

Aunt Zhao originally wished it was someone else, but when she heard what her daughter said so decisively, her heart felt sore, she pointed at Tanchun with one hand on her hips, and asked like a teapot: "Now that things are still going on, why are you still here?" Towards her?! You are not afraid that she will find out something and give the three of us to..."

"What did Auntie say!"

Tanchun rolled his mother's eyes angrily, and said seriously: "My aunt has also been serving my wife for more than ten years. If she is really my wife, how could she not recognize her that night?"

Aunt Zhao thought it was true, but she insisted: "Maybe she deliberately concealed it? Anyway, I felt a little familiar at the time, it must be someone I know!"

Tanchun was very confident at first, but after hearing Aunt Zhao's words, she couldn't help but hesitate. After all, she was just dealing with business affairs, and she didn't know if a woman could cover up everything in that situation.

He wanted to ask Aunt Zhao for advice, but he was ashamed to say that nasty thing.

"Girl, girl!"

Just at this time, the servant secretary raised his voice outside the door and reported: "Mrs. Mei has accepted the Bazhenhua we made, and gave me a jar of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, saying that it was a gift from the palace, and told the girl to be careful." Don't drink too much."

"I can save it, you..."

Just as Tan Chun was about to order the waiter to retire, Aunt Zhao said in a sour voice: "Yo~ I didn't know you pickled Huamei all day long, but she got filial piety—tsk tsk tsk, I don't know the details , I'm afraid everyone thought you crawled out of her stomach!"

"I don't need my aunt to remind me, I also know that I was raised by a concubine!"

Tanchun paid her back, but he didn't want to make a fuss in front of the servant girl, so he said again: "Go and get the ones for Auntie, and brother Huan's share!"

Aunt Zhao stopped when she saw that she and her son were in charge.

When the servant came back with two copies of Huamei, Aunt Zhao recalled her previous doubts and couldn't help asking: "What did you see in the hut in Qingtang just now? Is there anything wrong?"

"Auntie?!"

Jia Tanchun gave her a hard look.

The waiter was puzzled: "It's nothing weird? By the way, Miss Lin has recovered, and she went to the hut to express her thanks - and when I left, my wife asked someone to pass on Uncle Jiao and Mrs. Second Master Bao, it seems that it is for something..."

"She sent someone to pass on Uncle Jiao?!"

Aunt Zhao jumped up and asked excitedly: "When you said that..."

"Auntie!"

Jia Tanchun hurriedly stopped her, for fear that she would start a fuss, and then added: "Since Sister Lin is well, I should go and see her—Auntie, go back quickly, what's the matter?" I'll go find you again."
