Chapter 338 True or False
"Jingyuan Marquis not only has a good mind, but also has a strong body. I remember that when he was eight or nine years old, he ran away with only two pillars. As a result, I took the people from the Marquis' mansion and searched half of the capital. "I found them in the alley near the Chenghuang Temple," the old housekeeper said, "Guess what happened then?"

"What's going on?" Marquis Zhongyuan asked with interest.

"The second pillar of our family was so frightened that he almost fainted from crying when he saw me. When I saw that Marquis Jingyuan's head was bleeding, I hated it so much that I immediately sent someone to the alley to find him. When I ran in, I saw five young men of twelve or thirty years old lying in the alley. They all looked like bloody gourds. Marquis Jingyuan also ran into the alley and asked me to find a doctor for them and pay for the medicine. I paid it, saying that those people are very loyal and worth paying for." The old housekeeper sighed: "I thought at that time that Marquis Jingyuan would definitely inherit your mantle in the future. ”

"Are you talking about those boys from Xu Wu? They are really good." Marquis Zhongyuan said with a smile: "But Xiao'er often caused trouble for me when he went to the military camp. Master Tu once complained to me, saying He fought everywhere and lost two thousand taels of silver a year, not counting the money he paid for dinner. "

"Our Marquis Jingyuan's temperament is up to you. No one who has ever interacted with Marquis Jingyuan would not say good things about him." The old housekeeper said, "Only those who don't understand can be stupid."

"Yes." Zhongyuan Hou sighed, stood up, and said: "You ask Er Zhuzhu to clean up the main courtyard and change everything that needs to be changed. I will go to Jingyuan Hou Mansion."

"I'll have someone prepare the car now." The old housekeeper hurriedly stood up and walked out.

"Lao Yang, you don't have to do everything yourself, you just need to be there to help with the second pillar." Marquis Jingyuan said with a smile: "Don't tire yourself out."

"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. It's okay for me, an old man like me, to help you manage the affairs of the house." The old housekeeper sent Marquis Zhongyuan into the carriage.

Back at the house, the old housekeeper said to Er Zhuzhu: "Please do your best to deal with the Second Master's affairs and arrange for two dedicated people to keep an eye on it. Make sure you don't make any mistakes."

"I understand." Erzhuzi responded in a low voice.

"This will be the property of the eldest son of Marquis Jingyuan in the future, so you have to be optimistic about it." The old housekeeper said: "When we are done here, I have to tell the old Marquis to let me go to the Marquis Jingyuan's Mansion to stay for a few days. , even if it’s just helping to clean the yard.”

"You really want to cause trouble. Can Marquis Jingyuan allow you to clean the yard?" Erzhu asked with a smile: "Just tell Marquis Jingyuan directly that you want to help Marquis Jingyuan take care of the house for a few days, right?"

"Alas!" The old housekeeper sighed, "It would be great if Marquis Jingyuan lived with Marquis Zhongyuan. I will always guard the door for them."

"How old are you, and you still have to guard the door?" Erzhuzi knew that his father had stayed in the Zhongyuan Marquis Mansion for most of his life, and regarded the Zhongyuan Marquis Mansion as his own home. After being driven home by the Yang family, he stayed at home Seeing that he was thinking about the Hou Mansion every day, he smiled and said, "Sister Ming wants to eat the peach blossom cake I bought a few days ago. I will help you buy two pieces to take back when you go back."

"I'm staying in the Marquis's mansion tonight, you can go back." The old housekeeper said, "What if the old Marquis comes to see me."

Er Zhuzhu shook his head slightly and made a pot of tea for the old housekeeper, "You are not young anymore, so you have to take care of your health."

"I know, I know it well." The old housekeeper looked outside the door and said: "We need to plant more flowers and plants in the yard this year, at least it will look lively."

The old housekeeper thought about what happened at Zhongyuan Hou Mansion and sighed heavily again.

Ling Xiao was sitting in the backyard with Zuo Xiang Ningyi. When he heard that his father was coming, he quickly changed his clothes and went to the front yard.

"How is father's health?" Ling Xiao asked with concern, "Have you asked Dr. Liu to check on you again today?"

"I'm already fine." Marquis Zhongyuan said with a smile, "By the way, I'm here to ask you, is Granny Wei here with you?"

"Yes." Ling Xiao nodded and said frankly: "I was afraid that you were poisoned, so I arrested Granny Wei and asked about the situation."

"Yang Zhi came to me to ask for someone. Please give her to me. She will follow Yang to live in Zhuangzi." Marquis Zhongyuan said, "She will not be allowed to enter the Marquis' mansion again in the future." "Okay." Ling Xiao said nothing. Asked, he simply asked someone to bring Mrs. Wei up.

When Mrs. Wei came in, she knelt in the middle of the ground, covered her face and cried.

Marquis Zhongyuan looked at her without asking anything. He stood up and said, "I'm going back first. I'll come over to your place for dinner tomorrow night and have someone cook me spicy chicken."

"Okay." Ling Xiao smiled and sent Marquis Zhongyuan out, "The fried noodles made by the cook I told you a while ago are also delicious. I'll ask him to make you a bowl."

"The mixed chili peppers I ate a few days ago are also very delicious. You can ask someone to mix more for me. It will be just right for me to eat with porridge in the morning." Marquis Zhongyuan was talking as he arrived at the gate. He stood still, looked at Ling Xiao, and said with a somewhat gloomy look: "Didn't you say that the emperor will send you to leave the capital in a while? You should spend more time with your wife during this time. If you are too busy with things in the Hou Mansion, Let the old housekeeper come over to help you for a while. I think he is in good health. If he works for another two years, there will be no problem at all. "

"I told Erzhuzi a few days ago that I asked the old housekeeper to come and stay with me for a while." Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Wait until you finish your work there."

"Okay." Marquis Zhongyuan got on the carriage.

Ling Xiao waited for the carriage to go away before he walked back to the inner courtyard with heavy steps.

He didn't ask about the Zhongyuan Hou Mansion, not because he didn't care, but because he felt he was not qualified to ask.

He guessed that Marquis Zhongyuan must also know his life experience.

Otherwise, he would not have sent Mrs. Yang to Zhuangzi, nor would he have come to ask for Mrs. Wei.

Ling Xiao thought about telling Granny Wei to shut up, but when he thought about it later, he felt it was completely unnecessary.

True is true, false is false, paper cannot contain fire after all.

Moreover, he did not want to deceive Marquis Zhongyuan. Although he knew that if Marquis Zhongyuan did not know about this matter, it would be a big blow to him, but he still wanted Marquis Zhongyuan to know the truth so as not to He always wanted to give Zhongyuan Marquis Mansion to himself.

The Zhongyuan Marquis Mansion should be given to Ling Chen, because Ling Chen was his father's biological and only son.

Zuo Xiangning heard the voice greeting Ling Xiao outside, walked out of the room, and asked strangely: "Why are you back? Where is your father?"

"Father was passing by. He stayed for a while and then went back. If nothing happens, he will come over for dinner tomorrow night." Ling Xiao stepped forward and hugged Zuo Xiangning tightly in his arms.

Zuo Xiangning watched in embarrassment as the girls at the door retreated, then put her arms around Ling Xiao's waist.

She knew he had something on his mind, but he didn't tell her and she didn't ask. She wanted to give him freedom, but in her heart she hoped he could be honest with her.

Ling Xiao hugged her for a while, let her go, and said with a smile: "Father likes spicy food, please ask the kitchen to cook more spicy dishes for her, especially the oily noodles, and make a bowl for father too. "

Zuo Xiangning smiled and agreed, "Okay."
