The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 424 Where to Look (1)
Thinking of his younger brother, Qingshu's brows relaxed, and he glanced at Xiaoyu, "You really know how to persuade people."

Seeing that her demeanor changed, Xiao Yu said happily, "Miss, wait a moment, this servant will bring you a wet cloth to wipe your hands."

Qing Shu wiped her hands, and absent-mindedly took the sliced ​​apple and ate it.

Xiao Yu saw that the letter on the table had not been touched, "Miss, what should I do with this letter?"

Qing Shu groaned, and continued to eat the apple absent-mindedly, until she reached into the plate, but found nothing, then regained consciousness.

Xiaoyu hurriedly asked, "Miss, do you want to eat more? Do you want to cut another one?" When asking, he still didn't forget to pass the wet cloth over.

Qing Shu wiped her hands, "No." Then she took the envelope that Ma Shi left on the table, and went into the inner room.Xiaoyu followed, closed the inner door, turned around and cleared away the melon and fruit plates on the table for the guests.

Qing Shu squinted at the letter in her hand, thinking in her heart: Don't read it, burn it, and act as if nothing happened; open it, burn it again, and act as if nothing happened.

She stared at it for a long time, feeling bored, folded it into a paper airplane, threw it casually, let it fall to the ground, and didn't pick it up, just fell on the kang and didn't want to move.

Half an hour later, the housekeeper and others came back.The housekeeper and Mother Su came over to answer Qingshu in person.Ma Shi was sent by the eldest son to see a doctor in Tzu Chi Medicine Hall.The doctor said that Ma Shi was over-worried, coupled with insomnia and exhaustion, which dragged down his body.The doctor prescribed a medicine for three days, and told Ma Shi to rest for a while and eat some nourishing food.Butler Gu and others sent Ma Shi home who had seen a doctor before rushing back.

After reporting this, Mother Su dismissed Xiaoyu and Xiaojuan who were serving in the room, and whispered to Qingshu, "Miss, I have something to report to Miss."

Seeing her acting mysteriously, Qing Shu felt strange, "What's the matter?"

Mother Su then told Qing Shu that Aunt Ying, who was in front of Mrs. Ma, avoided people and talked to her.Ying Gu said that it is true that Mrs. Ma came here today to ask for something, but not to ask for a promise.Speaking of this, Su's mother was puzzled, "Miss, what promises or not promises, the old servant is confused. Ask a question, but the old woman refuses to say, and I don't know what's going on?"

Qingshu raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "Oh, what else did she say?" But she was thinking in her heart, whether Ma Shi instructed her mother-in-law to say this, or she made her own decision.No matter which one, if you think about it carefully, the purpose is not to let her help solve Gu Li's marriage.

So Mama Su continued to talk.Aunt Ying said that Ma's visit today is to repay the letter and to ask Qingshu for help.Mrs. Ma wanted to get rid of Gu Yunfu, so he quietly left Kangxi Town with his children and went south to make a living.But Gu Yunfu kept a close eye on them, and Madam Ma couldn't go away quietly, so he had to turn to Qingshu for help, hoping that Qingshu could help them to leave.

Aunt Ying also told Mama Su about the collusion between Gu Yunfu and Wu Fu.This made Mother Su very angry, and said to Qing Shu, "Miss, Mr. Fu is too much, I never thought that he would do such a thing. The old slave thinks what Aunt Ying said makes sense. Miss Li, without Chongxi bride, Master Fu's conspiracy with the Wu family will not be possible."

The butler Gu who had been silent all this time said from the side, "What do you know? The eldest lady took her children away, can Master Fu let go? If Miss really becomes a helper, Master Fu will definitely come to make a fuss and ask Miss for someone. Can it be good to be noisy at times?"

After hearing this, Mother Su took a deep breath, "This, this, isn't the eldest lady trying to harm the young lady and the young master? How can this be done?"

Butler Gu pondered for a while, and then said, "Madam is afraid that she has no other way out, so she thought of using Miss to make things happen. Miss, did Madam ever mention what Madam promised to Miss Li's marriage?"

Qingshu shook the paper airplane she was playing with in her hand, "I didn't mention it. But I gave this, and what is written here is the content of the promise, it seems that my mother wrote it herself."

Su's mother was stunned, "There is such a thing? This old slave has served in the mansion for many years, but he didn't know there was such a letter."

Steward Gu was also taken aback, "So the promise is true."

Qing Shu looked over, "What do you mean by that? About the promise, I only heard about it from you, the housekeeper."

Butler Gu said, "At that time, I was not the housekeeper of the mansion, but because I was the general's subordinate, I would often go to the general. One day, it happened that the general lost his temper with his wife. There was no other reason. After discussing, I made some difficult promises to Miss Li's marriage. The details are not very clear, but it's just something that Madam has already promised, and the general can't say anything, so this matter was put aside."

Su's mother was stunned, "I heard you say that, and I vaguely remembered something. The general was furious and scared us away. At that time, the general shouted loudly, 'Why should I pay his daughter's dowry'? What's the matter, let me think about it. The number of times the general loses his temper is limited, I should remember..." She muttered for a long time, and seemed to remember, "There is another sentence, the general shouted, 'Delusion Marrying a daughter into the mansion of a fourth-rank official, you really dare to climb a high branch'. Miss, what is written in the letter? Madam will not really promise to prepare a dowry for Miss Li, and let Miss Li climb a high branch, right?"

Qing Shu felt powerless.It turned out that the content of the promise was not only that the cousins ​​"enter the same family", but also that they would pay Gu Li a dowry.Gu Yeshi, that brainless little white flower!No matter how good you are with Ma Shi, you can't spend your heart and soul to this extent!The Holy Mother is so speechless.And Ma Shi, he has such a big heart!Why choose a son-in-law from the mansion of a senior official of the fourth rank? It's not majestic enough at all. You might as well just choose the emperor as your son-in-law.

Under the watchful eyes of Steward Gu and Mother Su, Qing Shu said weakly, "I don't know, I haven't watched it yet."

Mother Su was anxious, "Miss, why don't you take a look?"

Qingshu sighed, "Because I haven't thought about it yet. I really want to open it up to see what's going on, but I'm worried that I'll be mad at myself, so I'm still thinking about it. Tell me, I'll just burn it, will it work?"

After listening to Su's mother, she didn't know what to say.She felt that what the lady said was very reasonable. What should the lady do if she gets angry after reading the content?
Steward Gu also found it difficult, but he still gave a suggestion, "Miss, I guess you will be angry if you read it, and you will also be angry if you don't read it. If you think about it, you should open it and see if it is true. If it is true Yes, just burn it. If you burn it, you won’t be afraid that Da Furen will make a fuss about it in the future. If it is not true, it will prove that Da Furen is not trustworthy. You should know how to treat her in the future .”

The truth is this.Qing Shu lazily waved her hand, "You go down first. I'm in a bad mood today, I don't want to read it. Anyway, the letter is in my hands, so I'll read it tomorrow. Don't worry." In fact, she was disgusted by the same entry. .If Zhou Boyan heard this, what expression would he have?
