Fish Leaping Farm Gate

Chapter 280 The Crux
As soon as Du Xiaoyu came back from Tianxing Temple, Du Xiaoyu sent someone to Huang Xiaoying's house to fetch her daily necessities. Zhao Dongzhi was also relieved to hear that her daughter was willing to live in the official residence temporarily.It seems that going to the temple together this time has some effect, otherwise she would not be able to listen to what others said, so she immediately packed up some clothes, as well as Huang Xiaoying's favorite jewelry and snacks.

There are eight rooms in the mansion, Du Xiaoyu chose the one near Du Wentao for Huang Xiaoying to live in, and the maids also ordered her not to wait on Huang Xiaoying with her, and just pay a little attention outside.

As soon as the arrangements were made, Li Yuanqing happened to be off work. He was surprised to see Huang Xiaoying moving in suddenly, so Du Xiaoyu talked about the probing at Tianxing Temple, and he nodded, "It's really strange, that's fine, you can add more Pay attention, maybe there is some unexpected crux in it." Then asked her if her pilgrimage went smoothly.

Du Xiaoyu didn't tell him about going to the Green Bamboo Forest either, the two chatted for a while and it was time for dinner.

After the meal, Du Wentao got a hint from his sister that she learned a set of swordsmanship from Li Yuanqing and wanted to show it to Huang Xiaoying. Huang Xiaoying watched Du Wentao grow up and loved him very much, so the two went to the yard.

"Mao Zong's case has finally been solved. It turned out that he also wanted to do the silk quilt business. Someone came from Lingcheng and wanted to talk to him about buying silk. It was agreed earlier, but he is now in prison and can't get out. " Li Yuanqing has been sending people to watch Mao Zong's several family properties in the county, and he will report back as soon as he finds suspicious people, which is also the news that he got yesterday.

Du Xiaoyu was surprised, Mao Zong originally wanted to steal business from her, "Then does he have any relationship with the other two businessmen?"

"It's not a cooperation, but a competitive relationship. They all went to Niu Fusun. Zhang Shouyi probably met the three of them at that time. Zhang Shouyi learned a lot from Sun Xiaoshan and wanted to use it to make some money. As a result, the two This businessman has only valued Sun Xiaoshan since Niu Fusun."

Du Xiaoyu still didn't understand why Zhang Shouyi wanted to poison Sun Xiaoshan. After thinking for a while, he frowned and said, "Could this Shouyi want to replace Sun Xiaoshan? This is too vicious, after all, he is also a friend who has been with him for several years."

Li Yuanqing sneered, "He wasn't a good guy at first, he owed gambling debts and abandoned his wife back then, now that the benefits are close at hand, and he is instigated by Mao Zong, what can't he do?"

"The shopkeeper Mao instigated him?"

"Yes, as long as you cooperate with Sun Xiaoshan, where is his position in the county? If Sun Xiaoshan is not eliminated, it will be difficult for him to make a comeback. He also promised Zhang Shouyi benefits, but the results have not been fulfilled. In a rage, Zhang Shouyi designed poison Dead Jiang Guo just wanted to frame Mao Zong."

"But he got himself involved." Du Xiaoyu sighed, "It's just a business field, so much grievances!"

Li Yuanqing was noncommittal, he had seen enough cold-blooded and ruthless criminals in his trials, he just smiled and said, "Now you can let Sun Xiaoshan go out for snacks."

Du Xiaoyu burst out laughing.

At this moment, Du Wentao dragged Huang Xiaoying in, his forehead was densely covered with sweat, it could be seen that he had indeed performed his swordsmanship vigorously just now.

"Hurry up and get some hot water." Du Xiaoyu told the maid, and said with a smile, "Sister Xiaoying, how is he dancing?"

"I don't even understand." Huang Xiaoying replied honestly, "It's just weird. It's not easy for him to practice at such a young age. He is much better than our Lirong. Let him hold a sword." , I’m afraid it won’t look good.”

Du Xiaoyu laughed, "That's because no one taught him. I'll ask Lirong next time. If he is willing, he can also ask him to live with him. Practice swords with Wen Tao. It's good for his health."

When the hot water came, Du Wentao wiped his face and sat beside him.

Li Yuanqing looked at him, and suddenly asked, "Next year's county exam, do you want to try to take the exam?" Although Du Wentao was only six years old, his quick thinking was no worse than when he was young.

"Okay." Du Wentao nodded without hesitation.

"Aren't you afraid of failing the exam?" Du Xiaoyu reached out and patted his head, "If you fail the exam, you will be laughed at. At such a young age, you go to learn the county exam with those brothers, isn't it self-defeating?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't pass the exam. If others want to laugh, they are free to laugh." Du Wentao looked very calm, "If you pass the exam once more, you will have more experience."

This child is really precocious. Thinking about what she knew when she was six years old, her mind was full of eating, drinking, and having fun. If she hadn't traveled through time, she would definitely be inferior to him. Du Xiaoyu liked it more and more, and praised, "That's right, but failure The mother of success, if you don't do well in the exam, you should practice early."

Seeing the three of them enjoying themselves happily, Huang Xiaoying couldn't help but think of Xiao He, her heart twisted, and her face darkened.

Li Jin's wedding is scheduled for October 28th, and it's very close. After much deliberation, Du Xiaoyu decided to wrap up the red coral bonsai in the warehouse as a gift.

This red coral is a rare thing, so this gift can be considered heavy. It is very eye-catching as a decoration at home. Presumably the couple will like it. After all, the two are businessmen. Ordinary cloth jewelry, especially The Fang family couldn't catch their eyes either.

That day was full of joy and excitement, when Bai saw her son finally got married, she was so happy that she shed tears.

After this incident, the weather gradually turned cold, and it was a severe winter.

Because of the incident of almost stepping on moss in the green bamboo forest that time, Du Xiaoyu has always been very suspicious of green bamboo, and the two of them were sent to be close to her as maids. competitors.

That day Caiping didn't go to the Green Bamboo Forest because of stomach discomfort, and although Qingzhu went with them, something dangerous happened, if she really fell that day and lay in bed for seven and a half months, Qingzhu wouldn't be able to please, yes She suggested going to the Green Bamboo Forest, so what could she get in the end?

Sitting in front of the desk, Du Xiaoyu looked outside at the green bamboos who were instructing other maids to sweep the floor. After a while, she spoke to the color screen.

"How did you pay attention to what I called your attention to?"

"Returning to Madam, according to the slave servant's observation, there is nothing wrong with Mrs. Lin. She has used a lot of things, and she almost remembers where she put them."

"How much do you remember?" She needed a very accurate evaluation.

"Nine times out of ten."

That percentage is too high. According to the normal view, there should be no forgetfulness, because even a person with a good memory will sometimes be confused. Where, this is normal.

At this time, Caiping said again, "But Mrs. Lin was a little bit wrong at the beginning. She seemed not sure where she put it. She always thought about it for a long time, but when she found it, she became happy again. Later, slowly It’s good to be slow, and you don’t have to think about it to know where you are.”

Du Xiaoyu nodded, it sounds like the relationship between environment and psychology, why Huang Xiaoying had doubts at first, it was a problem in her heart, but no one in the whole mansion mentioned it, so she relaxed, and nothing unusual happened again status.But why is this happening in the Lin family?

She rubbed the teacup in her hand, counting it, it seemed that it happened after Mrs. Cao was invited, but from the beginning to the serious condition, the development was extremely rapid, which was particularly abnormal.

No matter how serious the illness is, there should be a buffer period.

"You ask someone to invite my aunt over here." She immediately ordered the color screen.

After a while, Zhao Dongzhi arrived in a hurry, and there was even Mrs. Zhao with her.

"Mom, why are you in the county?" Du Xiaoyu was surprised, "Why didn't you tell me, and went to my aunt first? Didn't dad come?"

"Hey, I don't worry about Xiaoying, so I came to take a look. I just saw your aunt, and you sent someone to look for it." Mrs. Zhao sighed, "Your father is not free to come, you are nervous about the brassica field, Why don't he watch it carefully? Otherwise, you'll have to run back and forth again, and he'll be in a hurry..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhao Dongzhi interrupted her, "Xiaoyu, what did you ask me to do? Did something happen to Xiaoying?" Some time ago, Du Xiaoyu sent good news, saying that Huang Xiaoying had improved a lot. Yes, she was naturally panicked.

"Miss Xiaoying is very well. I asked her to take a nap. I have something important to ask my aunt." Du Xiaoyu asked them to sit down, and told the maid to back out.

"Say it quickly!" Zhao Dongzhi yelled anxiously.

Du Xiaoyu asked, "Is Lady Cao taking care of Xiaohe now?"

Asking Mrs. Cao, Zhao Dongzhi frowned, "Of course she took care of her, and I'm not good at nursing children, but what does this have to do with Mrs. Cao?"

"How is Mrs. Cao?" Du Xiaoyu continued to ask.

Zhao Dongzhi didn't even want to say anything, and only said why she kept asking Mrs. Cao. Mrs. Zhao stared at her and scolded, "Xiaoyu must have a reason for asking you. If you don't tell me, I will tell you. This Cao In your aunt's mouth, it's good in every way. Apart from breastfeeding and taking care of children, she can do everything, and hiring a servant is nothing more than that, don't you think? If I want to like someone like Cao, Take it easy."

Is this Mrs. Cao really that perfect?Du Xiaoyu didn't know her well, but she couldn't help being suspicious. There really is no perfect person in the world, "She has no shortcomings? What does my cousin-in-law say? Does he also say that she is very good?"

Zhao Dongzhi was stunned for a moment, but hesitated, and didn't answer right away.

"Her in-laws also said Mrs. Cao is good." It was Mrs. Zhao who said again, "Qingzhen doesn't seem to have listened to what he said, but he doesn't have much to say to us, let him praise Mrs. Cao , I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Such a good person, why is it difficult?There will always be a word or two of praise, right?
Du Xiaoyu looked at Zhao Dongzhi, "This is very important, auntie, it's about Miss Xiaoying's body, if you want her well, answer me seriously, don't hide it."

"What am I hiding?" Zhao Dongzhi yelled, "I don't understand why you are talking to Mrs. Cao? Xiaoying is not very friendly with her."
