safe house

Chapter 34

Mother Du was a little dissatisfied with Mrs. Yun's remarks.

She felt that, no matter when, hope should be held in her own hands.

Seeing the tiredness in Mrs. Yun's eyes, she sighed softly and swallowed the words that were on her lips.

She persuaded in a low voice: "It's getting late, Madam should go to bed earlier!"

Madam Yun glanced at the hourglass on the table and nodded, "After washing up, I lay on the bed."

···········
After Zuo Mingtang returned to his room, he was not in a hurry to rest, but just sat at the table thinking about things.

By his hand was a Longjing lamp emitting curling heat.

The young master didn't speak, and Ah Qiu didn't dare to disturb him, and stood quietly behind him.

After an unknown amount of time, Zuo Mingtang suddenly asked, "Where did Qin Muyuan go?"

Ah Qiu dutifully replied: "Mr. Qin has been staying in the room since he came back, but before having a cup of tea, Mr. Du came to look for him."

The two of them closed the door, not knowing what to mutter in the room.

Zuo Mingtang asked again: "What do you think of what happened tonight?"

Ah Qiu really wanted to scratch his head, but just as he raised his hand, he held back.

How many catties and taels he has, he is very clear in his heart.

I also understand that my brain cannot make suggestions for my master.

But what he doesn't understand is why the young master always asks him about things that make him think.

He groaned for a long time before uttering a word, "That girl from the Qin family is very suspicious."

Zuo Mingtang asked, "What's so suspicious?"

Ah Qiu didn't hesitate this time, "She doesn't look like Mrs. Qin, nor Mr. Qin, but she looks a lot like the mother Zhou who is by her side."

Zuo Mingtang really wanted to help his forehead, but he just couldn't figure out why the person next to him always saw things so...unexpectedly.

I have to say, what he said is really the same thing!
Listening to Ah Qiu's words, the faces of those people flashed in his mind one by one.

Of course, he wasn't interested in these things, but he asked out of nowhere, "Then tell me, why is it like this?"

Now Ah Qiu was stumped, but he had to answer the young master's question, "This slave can't speak well either.

However, I heard that Miss Qin and the second son of the Qin family are twins.I just don't know if the second son of the Qin family will be similar to that Zhou's mother. "

If that's the case, the Qin family is really in a mess!

As for Qin Muyuan, he also had to reconsider.He didn't want any foul language from the people around him.

Zuo Mingtang asked again: "Then why did Qin Muxue appear at the foot of the mountain in the East Courtyard?"

Ah Qiu shook his head honestly, "I don't know!" He didn't want to embarrass himself.

Zuo Mingtang: "Then have you noticed Du Jingming?"

Ah Qiu nodded, "I noticed, he seems to be very anxious. But it doesn't seem like he is worried for Qin Muxue.

Moreover, I also noticed that Mrs. Yun was very dissatisfied when she heard Mr. Du speak. "

Ah Qiu pondered for a while, and asked: "By the way, my lord, the largest tea house in Jiangnan Road belongs to the Du family. Why is the owner's surname Yun?"

Zuo Mingtang was somewhat patient with this not-so-intelligent follower, "The current Patriarch is the daughter of the previous Patriarch of the Du family.

Her name is Du Yun.In order to keep his position as the patriarch, the previous patriarch recruited a man named Luo Heng to join Du's family. "

"Oh, so that's the case?!" Aqiu was stunned.

····························
The next morning, the sky was gloomy, and tiny drops of water condensed in the sky.

Just standing outside for a while will get your hair wet.

Sister-in-law Qi pushed open the door and complained to her husband behind her, "I don't like this kind of weather the most.

It's not cloudy, it makes people feel bad for no reason. "

It's hypocritical!

Qi Cheng rolled his eyes unceremoniously, "When did you even take care of God's affairs?"

"Who said I'm going to take care of God's affairs? I'm just saying it casually." Qi's sister-in-law didn't bother to talk to him.

In this kind of weather, wherever you go, you will be covered in water mist, not only your makeup will be smeared, but your clothes will also be wet.

She is the leader of the team now, so she has to pay attention to her image.

Furthermore, even if you stay in the house all the time, it is very uncomfortable.

There is too much moisture in the air, it is damp.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk" Just as the two were standing in the yard talking, someone knocked on the door.

Sister-in-law Qi went to open the door and found that it was a woman about 50 years old.

I've seen it before, it's a new neighbor on this street, it doesn't seem to be far from my home.

"What do you want?" Although they met, they were not familiar with each other.I don't understand why she came to the door so early in the morning.

The woman smiled and said, "Hi, I'm your neighbor. My husband's family name is Lin."

Sister Qi greeted with a smile, "Aunt Lin, I have something to do."

Aunt Lin smiled and said, "I want to borrow two eggs."

Borrow two eggs? !

I have lived here for so long, but I have never encountered such a thing!

It's just that people have come to the door, and it seems that they can't say the words of rejection, "Just wait a moment!"

Because of unfamiliarity, I didn't intend to let people in.

Aunt Lin didn't mind either, she nodded with a smile, "Don't worry."

After a while, sister-in-law Qi came back with two more eggs in her hand.

Aunt Lin smiled and said: "Although our two families are separated by two doors, if we go out through the side door, we will be close. No matter what happens, it will definitely be useful to say hello."

Sister-in-law Qi knew that the other party was just being polite, "Thank you, Aunt Lin, maybe I will really trouble you!"

Sister-in-law Qi poked her head out and watched Aunt Lin return to her home before looking away.

Shaking my head, how strange!
"Tuk Tuk Tuk..."

She closed the door, and before she could take a few steps away, there was another knock on the door.

"Who are you looking for?" He opened the door and saw a middle-aged man in his 40s standing outside.

The man smiled honestly and said: "Hello, my surname is Liu, and we are neighbors. I just moved here not long ago."

Sister-in-law Qi has some impressions of this person in front of her, just like Aunt Lin in front, she is unfamiliar!

"Are you in trouble?"

Liu Shu smiled and said, "I want to borrow two eggs."

Borrow eggs? !

Sister-in-law Qi's eyes widened suspiciously, but she couldn't say no, "Please wait a moment!"

"Hey!" Uncle Liu agreed very honestly.

After taking the eggs from Sister-in-law Qi, Uncle Liu said in a simple and honest tone: "We are neighbors, so please don't be polite if you have anything to do in the future.

I live right behind your house, and when you open the back door, you can see our house. "

"Understood, thank you!" Sister Qi nodded politely, not paying attention to what the other party said.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk..."

Sister-in-law Qi had just closed the door and walked back when there was another knock on the door.
