Chapter 204 What Did She Go To The Ancestral Hall?
Su Shou was about to smoke, since he was an official, he had never been so speechless!What is his virtue and ability?It's worth digging a hole with their monarchs and ministers together!
He couldn't restrain his resentment, and his eyes towards the Zhen Guo referendum were more like knives than knives.

Hearing the emperor's cough, he almost wanted to tell the truth, but he could only look away and maintain the etiquette in front of the king.

The emperor said kindly: "Zhen Guogong's words are not rough, and I have indeed spoken out, Su Aiqing, look..."

Su Shou looked at the ground and bowed with difficulty: "Minister, take the decree."

"That's right!" Duke Zhen immediately started laughing, "This matter of the lock mechanism, whoever dares to do it if you don't come to the Su family! I'm relieved if you are willing to come!"

Rest assured, a hammer!

Su Shou gritted his teeth, he didn't know how to feel relieved, he still felt relieved? !Is their surname Han a broom star? !
The room was already full of resentment.

The emperor waved his fan: "Su Aiqing has been an official for many years, and she has rarely done anything wrong. She has been an official in Dali Temple for three years, right? I remember that I haven't given you a reward yet. Come on—"

The eunuch Li Chun came in at the door.

"Pass down my decree, confer the honor of Zanzhi Yin, the Shaoqing of Taili Temple, and draw up the decree upon returning to the palace."

Zan Zhiyin is the third rank of honor, while Su Shou is currently the fourth rank. Although it is a false title, it is actually decent!Hearing this, no matter how bitter Su Shou felt in his heart, he couldn't help but lift up his robe and kneel down immediately: "I thank the emperor for his kindness! Long live the emperor, long live, long live!"

The emperor closed his fan and made an arousing gesture: "The matter of the Zhongjun Yamen is urgent, you should finish it quickly, and don't delay it."

After speaking, he narrowed his eyes and gave Su Shou a look, and then stepped out of the threshold.

Su Shou was stared at the same spot by his eyes, and did not move for a long time.

Zhen Guogong looked at him, stepped forward and said kindly: "The emperor is gone, why don't I let someone make a cup of tea, brother Su sit down and take a good look at this matter, what should I do?"

Su Shou turned her head to look at him, also sullenly, and left without making a sound.

Lord Zhen waved his hands happily: "Then I will bring good tea to Su's house to find you tomorrow!"

Su Shou walked faster!

……

In the alley, Su Wei was almost broken by Su Shou's secret. Fortunately, there was no danger. When she entered the door, the courtyard was quiet. Su Qi, who was waiting inside the door, covered her all the way back to her room.

It is worth wondering why Su Shou returned home so late, but she didn't bother to get to the bottom of it right now. After washing, she called Hibiscus Fusang to her and explained it. Chen Min lost the sign and would definitely look for it. In the meantime, she dared to pat her chest to guarantee that he would find her first, so she had to talk to the people below to avoid mistakes.

Han Mo ran into Luo Zhi and the man who bought Zhuangzi at the same time where Chen Xuan appeared, which already showed that they belonged to the same party, but why did Luo Zhi and the others appear there?It seems to be worth checking, but Han Mo must have a measure, so she doesn't care.In the next few days, she doesn't plan to come out if there is nothing important to do. It is very suspicious that Madam Bao deliberately approached Mrs. Xu, so she has to keep an eye on this side of the mansion.

After breakfast the next day, he planned to go into the ear room to draw a picture of a lock, but Aji came in with flowers in his arms.Seeing the delicate and lovely flowers, Su Wei stopped to enjoy them for a while.

Aji said: "Girl, I want to ask you something."

"Go ahead."

"I saw an empty yard at the back of our yard, which is Yinfangzhai. There are two flower gardens in it. It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time, but there are two crabapple plants there, which are old roots. I think it's a pity, and I want to take care of it too. Waiting and serving."

"Then let's do it." It's not a big deal.

"But I don't have the hall key, so I can't get in."

Su Luo raised her head: "Why do you need to walk through the hall? Isn't it enough to turn in from the east side?"

There are two passages from Qiyuyuan to Yinfangzhai, one is the hallway on the west side, and the other is the aquarium door turning corridor on the east side.Although there is a lock over there, but the key is in the hands of Qiyuyuan, because it is more convenient to go to the small garden to the west by this road.

Aji said: "I can't turn the east side. Madam Bao has the key."

Su Luo's hand stroking the flowers stopped: "Nurse Bao?"

Aggie nodded.After speaking, there was a look of hesitation on his face, as if he wanted to say something.

Su Luo asked, "What is she holding?"

Aji hesitated for a moment, looked around, and approached her and said, "Girl, I don't know why Madam Bao is holding the key, but when I was paying attention to the begonias in Yinfangzhai these days, I saw She walked back in the direction of the ancestral hall several times."

"Did she go to the ancestral hall?"

Aji couldn't answer this time, so he just shook his head.

Su Luo stood up.The ancestral hall of the Su family is located in the west, not far from the small garden in the west.Women are usually not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, except for New Year's Day and sacrificial days, Su Wei has never been there. Isn't it even more strange for Madam Bao to go there?No wonder Aji hesitated.She told Su Qi about staring at Nanny Bao, and Aji saw it from Su Qi, so it was not surprising that she made a special turn to tell her.

"When does she usually go?" she asked.

"Every time I saw her, it was in the morning. I didn't seem to go yesterday, but I probably will go today." Aji said and looked outside, and then said: "But the mother is going to send the wife off now. It’s soup, I guess I’m going to come out of the main courtyard.”

Su Luo stood still, and then went out the door.

On the side of the main courtyard, Mrs. Xu took the soup from Madam Bao and drank more than half a bowl before stopping.

"Drinking the soup you stewed these days, my body seems to be more energetic. It seems that sister Xie's family is really thanks to having you serving by her side."

Madam Bao replied: "It is a great blessing for a servant to serve my first wife."

Mrs. Xu nodded: "So now that I can be served by you, I am also blessed by sister Xie's family."

Madam Bao took the soup bowl and put it down: "My wife is kind, so I am blessed. Our girl often praises my wife."

Mrs. Xu smiled when she heard the words: "That's what it should be. Stepmother is also a mother. Since I am in this position, I must be worthy of the word 'mother'. Not to mention these days, I really feel that I have a relationship with her in my previous life. Like mother and daughter."

Nanny Bao also laughed.Seeing her reaching out to pick up the soup bowl, she drank the rest of the soup, and then said: "My servant sees that there are fresh sea bass in the kitchen. When I turn around for lunch, steam one for my wife?"

"Very good. Just remember to prepare the food for the little girl."

"Slaves dare not forget."

Nanny Bao picked up the tray with both hands, and bowed out of the room.

Steadily walking out of the yard, she stood still under the veranda, looked back, and then summoned a passing little maid: "Take this back to the kitchen yard."

The little maid walked eastward with the tray in her hand, while she took out the silk and wiped her sleeves twice before walking westward.
