Chapter 245: One story

 The British Duke nodded and asked, "Is Ziqin awake?"

Du Bin replied: "Master Liu woke up once, but now he has fallen asleep again."

The British Duke asked: "Mrs. Qin is still in Shuyingyuan now?"

“No, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Qian are in Linglong Garden. I heard that Mrs. Qin wants to take the eldest lady and the Sixth Master back to the Chengguo Palace.”

The British Duke said: "I understand. Ziqin woke up and asked someone to report it."

Du Bin bowed down and said worriedly: "My lord, if Mrs. Qin comes to Rong'an Hall to visit the old lady, will she quarrel with the old lady? Then what, the old lady is in a bit of a mood..."

Even though Du Bin was on the corridor just now, he could hear all the conversations in the room.

Judging from Du Bin's understanding of Mrs. Yang, Mrs. Yang's heart is full of resentment. If Mrs. Qin comes to see her at this time, she may become Mrs. Yang's venting bag.

Mrs. Yang can make a lot of noise in the house, but if she treats outsiders like this, the Duke's house will be completely disgraced.

   The British Duke was frightened when he thought about Yang's mad appearance.

Seeing the British Duke's sullen face, Du Bin tentatively asked, "How about I ask someone to wait at the door? If Mrs. Qin and the others come, tell us that we, Mrs. Qin, have taken a rest. How about that?"

The British Duke nodded, raised his hand and pressed his temples, and asked, "Okay, I will do as you say. Is Ziran in the house or out?"

Since Yang cares about Lu Ziran, he has to win over Lu Ziran and use Ziran to deal with Yang.

Du Bin leaned forward and said, "Young man, I'll let someone go find out."

The British Duke nodded, "Let someone go and have a look. If Ziran is in the house, let him come to see me."

Du Bin turned around and ordered his servants, who were ordered to turn around and leave.

Yingying asked as he walked: "Look, what happened today, could it be her doing?"

Du Bin shook his head and said, "The old lady has been ill in bed these days, and the only servants left in Rong'an Hall are Grandma Wang and Furong.

But Grandma Wang and Furong were busy serving the old lady every day and did not go out. It should not be the old lady's fault. "

Yingying turned his head and looked at Du Bin, feeling slightly relieved, and said, "It's not her, so she can just say it's not. Why do you say that there is something but there is nothing?"

Du Bin looked at the British Duke who was still sullen, sighed secretly in his heart, and said, "I thought that the old lady said those words to deliberately anger the Duke."

"Are you trying to make me angry on purpose? She is sick!" the British public said angrily.

Du Bin smiled bitterly and said, "The prince's room is a thorn in the old lady's heart.

 Just the slightest touch to the root will cause pain and the sting will make the old lady uncomfortable.

The old lady has been afraid of the prince's house for more than a day or two.

 Because of this, the old lady did something drastic..."

The British Duke couldn't help but interrupt Du Bin, "So, what happened today may have been her fault!"

Du Bin said: "I don't think so."

 “How can you see it?” asked the British Duke.

Du Bin explained: "When the old lady heard from the Duke that the Sixth Master was injured, her mood was high, which shows that she was very surprised. Why was the old lady surprised? It means that the old lady did not know about it before.

The old lady was angry with the Duke, probably because she saw the Duke protecting the Sixth Master, which made the old lady unhappy, and she blurted out some angry words that poked at the heart of the Duke. "

After hearing this, the British public servant was silent for a moment, and sighed longly: "It's so narrow-minded and inexplicable."

Du Bin lowered his hands and followed behind him without answering the question. He didn't know how to answer the question.

The British Duke walked a few steps and asked, "Do you think I want Ye and Ziqin to go to the Duke of Guo?"

Du Bin leaned forward and said, "The Duke finally brought the eldest lady and the sixth master back with great difficulty. If Mrs. Qin takes them back, how will they be brought back next time? The prince will return to Beijing soon."

The British Duke sighed and said, "Yes, Dingkun is about to return to Beijing."

Du Bin turned around and saw Aunt Yao leading Mrs. Qin and her group towards Rong'an Hall, and reminded him: "My lord, Mrs. Qin has gone to Rong'an Hall."

 The British Duke turned his head and looked over and said, "Hurry up and stop the man."

Du Bin immediately raised his voice and shouted: "Hello, madam."

Mrs. Qin stopped and looked over. When she saw Duke Yingying and Du Bin, she said to Aunt Yao: "Let's go over first to pay homage to the Duke."

Mama Yao nodded and led everyone towards the British father-in-law.

After greeting each other, Mrs. Qin said: "I took Jiu'er and Minghao Mingqin to Rong'an Hall to visit the old lady in law, but I didn't expect to meet the Duke here."

The British Duke said: "Thank you very much, Sister Yu. I just came from Rong'an Hall. Yang is tired, so I have to rest now."

Mrs. Qin didn't want to go to Rong'an Hall at first. She just came to the house and didn't pay a visit. It was not justified in terms of etiquette.

After listening to the British Duke's words, he found what he wanted, so he walked down the **** and said, "What a coincidence. Since the old lady in law has rested, we won't disturb her. We'll see her next time."

The British Duke nodded, "There are a lot of things going on in the house today, and there are some places where the reception is not good enough. I hope Sister Yu will be more considerate."

Mrs. Qin said with a smile: "Who has nothing to do? Don't worry about it, Mr. Guo.

Thinking that there have been a lot of things going on in your house recently, Sister Shan is weak and cannot withstand the incident, and Zi Qin is injured. I want to take Sister Shan and Zi Qin over to take care of them for a few days, and wait for their injuries to recover. What do you think of letting them come back to live? "

The British Duke said: "Thank you, Sister Yu, for your consideration. Ye and Ziqin have disturbed your residence for a long time, why should they bother you again?"

 Sister Yu, don't worry, I have arranged for someone to take care of Ye and Ziqin, and they will not be wronged. "

Seeing the British Duke's refusal, Mrs. Qin didn't want to say anything more. She just said: "In this case, I'm relieved. We've been here for a while, so we won't bother you today. We'll come to visit another day."

 The British Duke nodded, "Okay, I'll see Sister Yu off."

When the Duke came out from England, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Qian were in a car. Ye Minghao and Ye Mingqin were riding beside the car.

Ye Mingqin looked back at the British Duke's mansion and asked: "Mother, why doesn't the British Duke let us pick up my aunt and Ziqin?"

Mrs. Qian replied: "Your aunt is the eldest daughter-in-law of the British Duke, and Ziqin is the legitimate son of the British Duke. How can you let us continue?"

Mrs. Qin said: "The British prince also wants to have face, so it is normal not to let us pick up Sister Shan and Ziqin."

Ye Mingqin said "Oh" as if he didn't understand.

Seeing the worried look on Mrs. Qin's face, Mrs. Qian comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. Sister Shan has Aunt Yao by her side, and Ziqin has Ruxuan Rujin and the others by her side. Everything will be fine."

Mrs. Qin nodded, "I know this. I'm wondering, who attacked Ziqin? The other party was very malicious and came to take Ziqin's life. Apart from Yang, I can't think of anyone else." "

Mrs. Qian advised: "Ziqin is so smart, we can think of it. Ziqin must have thought of it too. He will definitely be vigilant and will not let anything happen to him again."

Han Shi and Ru Ji walked to the backyard where they had been free for a long time. Han Shi said: "I am not familiar with the aristocratic families in the capital, so I will take people to catch Miao Ershui, and you will take people to keep an eye on Wang Xin."

 Rumo nods his head in response.

Han Shi went out with water roots and hair roots.

 Ru Jin returned to the British government residence. Lu Ziqin was still awake. Ru Jin told Ru Xuan the results of his inquiry.

Ruxuan was well aware of Gu Huayu's ability and said to Ruji: "Listen to the princess, you should quickly call Jinhuan Yinhuan and keep an eye on the second shopkeeper."

Rumo nodded, "Don't worry. When I came back, I saw that the officers and soldiers of Yuanda Restaurant had not yet withdrawn."

The officers and soldiers were not withdrawn, so the shop assistants were detained in the shop.

Ruxuan said: "It's better to go over earlier and make preparations. The princess always talks about one person and the other. The princess said that these two people are suspicious, so there must be something wrong with these two people.

 You must obey the princess well and don't miss anything.

If you make a mistake and make your master unhappy, you may be punished like Ru'an and be sent to Longxi. "

Speaking of Longxi, Rujin immediately tightened his heartstrings. He didn't want to go to a remote place. He got up and walked out, "I know."

 At Yuanda Restaurant, the officers and soldiers stayed until midnight, before Lin Ling withdrew his troops and returned to Bingma Division.

As soon as the officers and soldiers left, Miao Ershui walked out in a hurry.

Wang Xin grabbed him and reminded him, "What are you doing? The shopkeeper hasn't spoken yet."

Miao Ershui stopped his feet, turned to look at Shopkeeper Kong, and muttered: "Does he have anything to say?"

“Nonsense, such a big thing has happened, why don’t you give me a few words of advice?”

Miao Ershui reluctantly followed Wang Xin back to the backyard.

When Shopkeeper Kong saw Wang Xin coming, he raised his voice and said, "Hurry up and get someone to the backyard. I have something to say to you guys."

Wang Xin looked at Miao Ershui and warned, "Hold on, do you understand?"

Miao Ershui rolled her eyes at him, "I know, go ahead."

Wang Xin summoned people to the backyard and said, "Shopkeeper, everyone is here."

Shopkeeper Kong looked at Miao Ershui sitting on the porch and said, "Miao Jianghai, why are you sitting so far away by yourself? Come here."

Miao Ershui did not take the right path. With a push of his hand, he jumped over the fence of the corridor and entered the patio. He said: "Shopkeeper, please hurry up and lecture me. I'm in a hurry to see the young lady."

 Everyone laughed.

Shopkeeper Kong laughed and scolded: "You guys, you still think I am too slow. Such a big thing happened today, and you are still thinking about your little wife."

Miao Ershui said: "What does today's matter have to do with us ordinary people?

Something happened to the noble son, and we, the common people, were detained here and couldn't keep our appointments with the young lady. When it comes to misfortune, who is as miserable as us?

I will see the young lady later, I wonder how she will deal with it. "

Someone shouted: "Er Shui is still afraid of being punished? You can't do this, you have to strengthen your husband."

  Let the little lady bring you tea and water, and massage your legs to make you feel comfortable. "

Miao Ershui smiled and said: "In normal times, I would still get this kind of treatment, but it's different today. I broke the promise first."

“Then let’s change things up today. It’s your turn to massage your little lady’s legs and make her feel comfortable so that she can’t get out of bed, so she won’t have the energy to take care of you.”

 Everyone burst into laughter again.

Sailor Miao Er pinched his chin and said: "This is a good idea. I will use this method soon."

"Er Shui, you are so small, can you do it?" a woman in her forties asked.

Miao Ershui looked at her mother-in-law with a playful smile. Her surname was Wu, and she was a handyman who washed dishes in the kitchen.

“Wu Ma, how about we give it a try and see if you can cry and beg for mercy?”

 The backyard exploded with laughter.

Shopkeeper Kong laughed and scolded: "You guys, you dare to make Wu Ma's jokes. Okay, that's the end of the joke, let's get back to the business."

 Everyone stopped laughing and looked at Shopkeeper Kong.

Shopkeeper Kong cleared his throat and said, "What happened today should serve as a warning to us.

From now on, we must keep people on duty in our front yard so that things like today cannot happen again. "

Everyone nodded.

Shopkeeper Kong continued: "Commander Lin said before leaving that if any of you see the suspect, go to the yamen of the Military and Horse Division to report to him.

The government has issued a notice offering a reward of ten taels of silver to anyone who can provide useful clues. If the murderer can be caught, he will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver. "

Miao Ershui asked in disbelief: "How much? Ten thousand taels of silver?"

Shopkeeper Kong nodded and said, "Yes, ten thousand taels of silver."

 “So many?” Someone took a breath and replied.

"What's so much about this? The person who was assassinated was the sixth master of the British government."

Miao Ershui turned around and asked, "What? Is the British Duke Liu Ye very powerful?"

Miao Ershui is addicted to women. Apart from working in the shop every day, he also goes to Chaomi Alley to find women to flirt with. He doesn't bother to know about the affairs of the distinguished family.

"You don't even know about Mr. Lu Liu? He is the legitimate son of the British Duke, his aunt's father-in-law, and a noble son appreciated by the emperor. Otherwise, why would there be so many officers and soldiers coming to our store today?"

Shopkeeper Kong Da said: "If something like this happens today, no one will come to eat. I'll give you two days off, and you can work in the store the next day. It's hot, so the vegetables you bought today can't be kept for a long time. Let's share them." Take some back."

 Everyone happily went to the kitchen to share the dishes.

Miao Ershui was not in the mood to divide the dishes. He pulled Wang Xin aside and asked, "Why don't you explain it to me clearly?"

Wang Xin said: "I thought you knew Lu Liu, but how could I know that you don't even know Lu Liu."

Miao Ershui said: "You too, for such an important person, you only need five thousand taels of silver, why should you need twenty thousand taels of silver?"

Wang Xin advised: "Now that things have happened, what's the point of talking about this?"

 “Why is it no longer interesting? You asked them to increase the price.”

Wang Xin looked at Miao Ershui speechlessly, "The price has increased. Do you know who the other party is?"

Miao Ershui asked: "Who is it?"

Wang Xin replied angrily: "Neither of us can afford to offend these people. If I dare to raise the price to them, they will kill me in the next moment."

After hearing Wang Xin's words, Miao Ershui stopped thinking about raising the price, but felt awkwardly that he had suffered a huge loss.

"Five thousand is five thousand. You let them settle the money earlier. I can still live on this little money."

Wang Xin looked around and said, "I know, please be careful. These days are extraordinary times. You'd better not run around."

Miao Ershui said: "Lusuo, I know it in my heart, I don't need you to worry about it, let's go."

 After saying that, Miao Ershui bowed his hands to Wang Xingong and walked out of Yuanda Restaurant.

Shuigen saw Miao Ershui going out, picked up the peddler's load, and followed Miao Ershui.

Han Shi came out of the teahouse not far away and followed him. With my hair roots at the end, I drove forward slowly.

Miao Ershui walked south along Cuiping Road. Along the way, he went to Suxinzhai and bought two boxes of snacks and carried them in his hands.
