Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 737 Qi Muyuan Comes

Yao Shuqi didn't know that his mistress had "unpredictable intentions" at all, and said honestly: "Did the young master tell his wife? Those two imperial guards have gone back to the capital and will never come again."

"Ah?" Mrs. Chen really didn't know about this.

Yao Shuqi saw that Mrs. Chen was suddenly in a trance, and seemed to be thinking of something else, so he could only confirm: "Then, should I discuss the arrangement of this yard with the young master again, and say that it is the wife's idea?"

"Oh, no need, just follow your young master's orders." Mrs. Chen waved her hand, "Okay, there's nothing else for you, go quickly."

As soon as Yao Shuqi left, Chen couldn't wait to say: "Go, call Tao Mama, I have something to tell her."

Mother Tao is the internal manager of the Du family, sharing internal and external affairs with Yao Shuqi.

"Ma'am, what are your orders?" Mother Tao came in and saluted Mrs. Chen.

Chen waved to her, and when Tao's mother approached, she whispered a few words in her ear.

The expression on Mother Tao's face was as weird as it could be.

She couldn't help asking: "Madam, what are you going to do?"

"Don't ask, I have my own intentions, you just follow my orders." Chen waved his hand.

Mother Tao, who has always been obedient, did not move, but persuaded Mrs. Chen earnestly: "Madam, listen to the old slave's persuasion, it is not good to do so. Originally, the young master is so beautiful, so he will be gossiped. If others find out There is a boy with such a face in his yard, what do you make others think?
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen raised her eyebrows: "Tongue chewing? Who chews my Jinning's tongue?"

"No one, no servant in the family dares to gossip like this." Mother Tao quickly clarified, "This old slave is just making an analogy. After all, the young master's appearance is there. He is not married yet, and outsiders don't know. There will inevitably be some speculation.”

Mrs. Chen also knew that Mama Tao was telling the truth.With Du Jinning like this, it is inevitable to be gossiped.

She waved her hand: "Okay, I know. But don't worry about this, just do as I tell you."

"Madam..." Seeing that she was advised not to move, Mother Tao had to find another way, "Why don't you ask the young master? If the young master agrees, the old slave will send him away."

"You mean, if the young master disagrees, I won't be able to order you around?" Mrs. Chen squinted at her, looking very unhappy.

Mother Tao lowered her eyebrows and said, "I don't dare."

"Since you don't dare, just do as I say." Seeing that Tao's mother still didn't move, Mrs. Chen had nothing to do with her, so she said, "The young master also agreed to do this. Anyway, if there are any consequences, the young master will never It's your fault."

Mother Tao thought about it for a while, and had no choice but to say "yes", saluted and left.

Only then did Chen let out a sigh of relief, and cursed with a smile: "This old thing."

Of course, she wasn't dissatisfied with Mama Tao. Instead, she recognized Mama Tao's loyalty even more by doing this.It's just that Mother Tao didn't know about it, she didn't know her good intentions at all.

Two days later, Du Jinning stood in front of the city gate again.

This time the officers and soldiers guarding the city were no longer the same as before, they just pretended not to see her.The captain came down directly from the guard of the city wall, greeted Du Jinning, and warmly invited her to sit at the guard: "You just have to say who you are waiting for. Anyway, you have to check the way into the city. When I see the person you are waiting for, I will Let the soldiers go up and inform you."

Du Jinning didn't want to stand here either.People who came and went would look at her without saying a word, because it was uncertain when Qi Muyuan would arrive, and she came earlier.If you stand here for half an hour, it's really not a problem.

She thanked her, and briefly explained Qi Muyuan's name and appearance to the soldiers guarding the city, and left a young man to watch, then followed the captain to the guards to rest.

According to the information in Qi Muyuan's letter, today should be his day of leave.If he was more eager to come here, he should set off in the morning when the gates of the capital city just opened, and gallop on horseback.Du Jinning counted his footsteps. If he only ate some dry food at noon instead of stopping to shoot, he should be able to reach Runzhou in Shenshi.

Du Jinning arrived half an hour early.

But I didn't expect that she just sat down at the guard's place, and before she took the tea made by the captain, she saw the young man rushing straight up, shouting: "Young Master, Young Master, Young Master Qi is here."

"Sorry, I'm going down first." Du Jinning nodded apologetically to the captain, then went down the tower and asked the boy, "Where is it?"

As soon as the boy pointed at the gate of the city, Du Jinning saw Qi Muyuan smiling at him with his white and neat teeth.Although he was dusty and dusty, but in Du Jinning's eyes, he was still so handsome.

Du Jinning's mood became high all of a sudden, and he ran over to stand still in front of him: "Why did you come so early? Are you in a hurry on the road?" After speaking, he was full of reproach.

"I'm in a hurry to see you." Qi Muyuan said.

The two of you looked at me, you looked at you, they just stood at the gate of the city, giggling at each other.

"Hey, little brother, are you going to enter the city or not?" A man pushing a cart behind Qi Muyuan shouted at the two of them.

Only then did Du Jinning realize that Qi Muyuan happened to be standing at the gate of the city just now as he was asking the gatekeepers to check the guides.Probably the young man saw Qi Muyuan from a distance, so he ran to the tower to call her, and he just entered the city when she came down.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Qi Muyuan hurried in and made way for him.

"Master Du, this is..." asked the captain who followed Du Jinning down from the tower.

"This is Mr. Qi, my classmate, and he is working in Dali Temple now." Du Jinning didn't mean to say much. He bowed his hands to the captain, then left, and got into the carriage she brought with Qi Muyuan, while Aoki rode with the audience. Chess goes hand in hand.

"Lord Du, you really have a strong background." The soldier and the captain said with emotion.

The captain thinks so.

……

In Du's mansion, Mother Tao taught a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy how to serve tea and water with no expression on her face: "You should bend your back more so that the tea won't spill out."

"You are a servant, as long as you do your duty well, you don't need to laugh."

Standing outside the window, Mrs. Chen watched the boy in the room move more and more skillfully, nodded with satisfaction, turned and left there.

Yao Shuqi glanced at the room with a sad face, and caught up with Mrs. Chen: "Madam, don't you think about this matter?"

Mother Tao didn't have the guts to betray the Chen family, so she would sue Du Jinning——Du Jinning was in Zhuangzi these days, and Mother Tao couldn't sue if she wanted to.But today Yao Shuqi followed Du Jinning back from Zhuangzi to entertain Qi Muyuan, she still couldn't help telling Yao Shuqi about it.
