The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 495 Prepare to Receive Order
Until last autumn, a friend of hers sent her a letter saying that Li Haitang had died, and the cause of death must not be simple.She became uneasy, trying to recall what Zhou Su said when she saw her for the last time, and the contents of the letter that she had destroyed long ago.Among the three names given by Zhou Su, she only remembered the name of Gu Yunhu's daughter, and for the remaining two girls, she only vaguely remembered one surnamed Huang and one surnamed Zhou, but she couldn't remember the names anyway.

She thought about reminding Gufu, but how to remind him?Could it be that she wanted to say that Zhou Su wanted to harm the ancient mansion, so he wrote a terrible and unfounded prophecy?No one would believe her when she said this, and would only think of her as a lunatic.

In addition to being anxious, she also hoped that everything was just a prank Zhou Su left her, and that such a thing would never happen.At the end of the year, unable to feel at ease, she settled down in a small town near the capital and decided to live there for a long time.

Soon the season of spring and flowers will come.The news that Peony, the daughter of the famous Huangfu family in Beijing was killed in an attack spread to the small town, and she was shocked with cold hands and feet.Because she remembered, the second of the three names was Peony, Huang's daughter.The timing of Huang Mudan's death was very coincidental, because in three days' time it would be the day when Huang Mudan married the son of the prime minister's mansion.She was afraid, because everything seemed to be confirming Zhou Su's words.

"Someone told Wu Mulan that you might be in Kangxi Town, Huizhou, so she came. When she came, she found that you were not there, and had been away for many days. She couldn't, so she met Shu girl. She was not sure about everything. It's just a coincidence or something. She just didn't want Shu girl to have an accident, and she didn't want you to be sad, so she came all the way to warn you." Mr. Lu said, took a sip of wine, and then coughed violently on the table.

Why didn't the woman he loved deeply know how to repent?Why can't you wake up?Even if he dies, the world will be disturbed, why is this?Where did that gentle and intelligent woman who silently and tenderly cast her loving eyes on Zhou Qiao go?When, exactly since when did you become like that?

Zhou Boyan raised his wine glass expressionlessly, but didn't drink it, just stared at the wine in the glass, "Sir, don't blame yourself. Back then, Mr. would let her go, but didn't take her life, because she said my father was probably alive , Said that my father is probably in the hands of someone behind the scenes. She assures you that she has a way to rescue my father. At that moment, if it were me, I would believe her and let her go. Knowing that it is impossible , but because we want the people we care about to live so much, we are willing to believe in unbelievable things.”

Mr. Lu stopped coughing, but he was still lying on the table.

"Sir, I will immediately write a secret letter and send it to the capital in an expedited [-] miles. The rest is the business of the emperor, and there is nothing you and I can do."

"No, you can't report this matter to the higher-ups, no." Mr. Lu immediately raised his head and said with red eyes, "If you want Shu girl to be safe, and if you don't want to lose Shu girl, you can only rot today's matter in your stomach , I can’t mention it again in this life. You have to know that even though the “Phoenix” mentioned in the letter is purely non-existent, it is related to the world. Between the world and you, even if the person you trust is unwilling in every possible way, the person you can persecute There are too many, and you still have to make a choice in the end. What do you think will be the final choice?"

"Sir, you are worrying too much. The imperial decree will arrive tomorrow." Zhou Boyan said with a flat face, showing no joy or anger.

"what?"

"Mister can let go of the past. Don't forget, you already have a wife and child." Zhou Boyan stood up after saying that, "I heard that Mister is going to be a father again, congratulations." He picked up the wine jar and turned around Walking out, "Sir, I definitely don't want my wife and children to worry. I will drink this wine for my husband."

Mr. Lu sat there for a long time, and didn't come back to his senses until Mrs. Lu and Sheng Ge came back.

Shengge wrinkled her little nose, and kept fanning the wind with her small hands, "Mother, mother, daddy is not good enough to drink secretly."

Mr. Lu hurriedly got up to put away the wine bowls and glasses on the table, and his mouth was not idle, "Daddy always drinks in an open and aboveboard manner. Dare to wrong Daddy and ask for a beating."

Shengge made a face, and immediately hid behind Mrs. Lu, "Daddy doesn't play Shengge."

"I'll come." Mrs. Lu stepped forward and took the bowl and wine glass from Mr. Lu's hand.

Mr. Lu smiled and took an untouched peanut on the table and handed it to Sheng Ge, "Little ghost, take it."

Shengge immediately grinned and ran over to hold it with both hands, then turned around and said to Mrs. Lu who was about to go out, "Mom, let's eat together."

Mrs. Lu shook her head, "My mother won't eat it, but Sheng Ge. But there is one thing, I will go to bed later, I can only eat ten pills, and I can't eat any more." After explaining, she went to the kitchen.

Mr. Lu drank too much wine earlier, and his head was a little dizzy, so he sat back.He pointed to the chair opposite, "Sit here and eat, Dad will see if your count is correct."

Shengge nodded, stood on tiptoe and put the peanuts on the table, then climbed up to the opposite chair and sat down, stretched out her little finger and picked out the peanuts in the oil paper bag one by one, muttering , Two... Counting.

Mr. Lu looked at his serious and focused expression, and thought of his wife who was three months pregnant, and felt that what Zhou Boyan said was right.He already has a wife and children, so everything about Zhou Su should be let go.What should I do with Shu girl?If he had known that when Li Haitang handed over the list, he had swindled and picked Qingshu completely, he wouldn't be so worried.

The next day was a fine day, after breakfast, the butler Gu ordered people to set up an incense table in the front yard, and put an incense burner and a handful of incense on the incense table.Afterwards, Steward Gu asked everyone to go back and perform their duties.

On the other side of the school, Mr. Lu still taught the four students.The imperial decree is coming soon, and it will not be too late for him to let Qingyang and Hao go out.

In the woman's inner courtyard, Qing Shu was sitting in front of the open window in the outer room looking over the ledger, while her three maids, young and old, were rummaging through boxes and cabinets in her living room.

Xiaoyu took out a goose yellow summer dress from Qingshu's closet, "Miss should wear this one, and a gold hairpin with pearls on her head, it must look good."

Xiaojuan had a different opinion, and took a pink one that was as thin as a cicada's wings, "That's good, the lady should wear this set of clothes. At the age of the lady, she should wear clothes of this color. Besides, today is different from the past, but the lady is Those who want to receive the imperial edict should dress more solemnly."

Xiaoyu disagreed, "No, have you forgotten that Miss is keeping a filial piety?"

"It's pink, not red. It's such an important day, and there's a big happy event in front of you. No one can make a fuss about Miss wearing a pink dress. That's all, and this is the only one in Miss's clothes." The pieces are the most luxurious."

Although the little girl is small, she squeezed among them to look through Qingshu's wardrobe.Suddenly her eyes lit up, and she took out a brand new bright sky blue one, "This one is good, this one is good, this one looks good."
