Sun was still in shock and was quite frightened, but Xie Tingyue couldn't pay attention because Chu Mu's eyes...
Too hot.
Even though they were so far away, he could feel Chu Mu staring at him, and his eyes moved down, brushing his hands back and forth, as if they were real.
It was as if he touched something dirty just now, and there were some marks on his hands. Chu Mu didn't like it, and he cared very much. He really wanted to hold his hand and wash it. However, the environment is not suitable, and there is no way to wash it with water, so I have to use eyes instead.
Xie Tingyue's scalp was numb when he saw it, what's wrong!
He's clean, he hasn't touched anything dirty, okay
Xie Tingyue bristled, and glared at Chu Mu.
Chu Mu didn't seem to feel his emotions, and pointed at Qin Ping with an 'answer that wasn't what was asked'—
The meaning is to tell Xie Tingyue that since Xie Ru left the Nuan Pavilion, Qin Ping has found someone to watch her, and she has not missed any changes. Guessing and confirming according to the behavior trajectory, it is easy to find out what Sun did. Naturally, my mother couldn't hide it.
Then poke at the old lady skillfully—the bigger the matter here, the more the old lady takes it seriously.
Qin Ping quickly nodded vigorously, trying to let his wife see him, it's best to divert his attention.
The master is too narrow-minded, the wife just handed a Zhang Pazi to the little girl, took a look at the wound on her neck, and didn't help to wipe the tears herself, and there was no ambiguity, why are you eating vinegar indiscriminately
A man who is too stingy is not cute, what if his wife finds out and is dissatisfied, what if he is really forced to kneel on the washboard!
Chang Sui is also worried about his master.
While Lu Li smiled into his eyes, he touched his chin with his hand, feeling more and more interesting.
For many years, Chu Mu has always been like that. Recently, he suddenly became a little angry, which made him curious. It turned out that it was because he married his wife... I feel that I must come here more often in the future, and the days of my friends will be rich and colorful. , It's a pity not to witness it.
Expectation is anticipation, but the scene in front of him is not suitable for him to stay any longer.
The old lady came here with great vigor, obviously wanting to offend others, he didn't want to meddle in other people's family affairs, so he offered to leave: "The old lady is safe and sound. The younger generation just heard that the young lady said that there are small snacks outside, and you can't eat it. I can't wait to taste it, so I will take my leave, and I will come to say hello to the old lady later—"
The old lady stopped him directly: "Young Master Lu, there is no need to avoid suspicion. It is not my intention to offend you by negligence today. If you don't explain to Young Master Lu, you will always feel bad."
What can Lu Li do? He had no choice but to agree, and pushed him to Chu Mu's side again.
"Come on, call me!"
The old lady's voice was as mighty as her silver hair.
The servants who came over moved quickly, setting up the bench and holding the board at the same time, and the rest carried Mama Huang over, lay down, and the board came.
The beating was so severe that Ms. Wang immediately screamed out.
The scene was quiet.
In this scene, anyone with a brain can make something interesting.
The old lady didn't say the ins and outs, didn't say much, it wasn't that she didn't know the facts and was unreasonable. First, to save face for my daughter-in-law, Sun, tell her that I know what you did, but in view of the past, I won’t embarrass you too much; second, this is a threat, and I know what you did What, if you don’t tell it, you will always be anxious, thinking about what was exposed, which secrets were known, which secrets were still hidden, or all of them were wiped out
Remember this feeling, and later, know to be afraid.
No matter how imprudent or impulsive, just think about today's mother Huang.
Someone moved a chair, and the old lady sat upright, as motionless as a mountain, and Mrs. Sun was already shaking.
Ms. Huang thought a lot, but she didn't expect to have a second board in a short period of time, and this meal was given by the old lady herself. The end... I'm afraid there will be no future!
She knew she was afraid, and her face was covered with tears: "Old madam, please forgive me, this servant will never dare again, never dare again—"
The old lady seemed to be deaf and didn't hear anything.
Ms. Huang: "For the sake of the loyalty of the whole family...for the sake of the slave's son's life in exchange for the master's life... I beg the old lady to spare my life...you should spare the slave!"
Mother Huang dared to be so frightened in the back house because she had something to rely on, and what she relied on was years of credit, and her son once used his character to save the second master. The second master was born to the old lady, and the old lady gave him a reward at that time, saying that he would remember their family's kindness. Mama Huang also has eyes and sense of proportion, and will never make a big mistake, so she has always been at home...
This time, it was only against Xie Tingyue, and it hadn't caused any particularly big or bad effects. She didn't understand why she had to die for this!
But no matter what she said, begging for mercy or threatening, low profile in the dust or turning into a ghost to take revenge, the old lady didn't respond.
Mother Huang's heart was ashamed, and finally she didn't even have the strength to beg for mercy. She gradually closed her eyes amidst the bloody smell.
There was no sound at the scene, and the north wind blew through, making it bitterly cold.
Hierarchy is so strict. If you do well, you should, and if you work hard to please me, you should, but if you fail to meet my expectations for you, it is a mistake. You have done nothing wrong, I am not angry with you because of other things, it is already kind, if you do something wrong, you must be ready to die at any time.
I can reward you, or I can stick you to death.
I have the power of life and death over you.
In front of Sun's face, Huang's mother was so out of breath.
Mrs. Li glanced at her: "Remember?"
Sun's face turned pale: "Yes, mother, my daughter-in-law remembers that, in the future, my daughter-in-law must study the female commandments seriously and reflect on it every day..."
But Mrs. Li raised her hand and stopped her words: "The family is big, the business is big, the population is large, and there will be many conflicts. I don't care who has opinions on who. There is no rule that whoever has to like whom. God can't control it. Teeth are still there." When you touch your tongue, it's normal. I don't care if you have any small quarrels, but at this time - rushing to make trouble, not to mention my daughter-in-law, even my own son, I can't tolerate it."
Mrs. Sun knelt down with a plop, her lips trembled, and she didn't dare to say any more flattering words: "What mother said is true, daughter-in-law dare not."
For the first time, she felt scared, confused, and even a little regretful. Did she really do something wrong? Can the center feed that was pushed away really be brought back? But don't push it away, wait until the New Year is over... how to solve it
If Zhongfu couldn't get it back, he had to wait for Chu Mu to die, but what if he didn't want to die? He has been sick since he was a child, and when his husband came back for his pulse check, he said that it will be a few days before you have to be mentally prepared, but it turned out that he was still very strong, and he came here after so many years
Mr. Lu is fine, Miss Xie was taken away by her father, Madam Huang was killed with a cane, and the second wife knelt down to admit her mistake... In today's series of big scenes, you come and go, someone designs, someone breaks it, someone controls the audience, who is the master? Superior, with the highest means
The servants all understood and cast admiring gazes at Xie Tingyue.
The young lady is amazing!
How to stand in line in the future is clear!
This husband and wife are good, the Chu family won't suffer at all if they cheat!
Chu Mu, who also enjoyed the attention ceremony, expressed his pride.
His wife is naturally the best in the world!
The old lady finished the matter neatly, asked Chu Mu and Xie Tingyue to treat the guests well, and kindly told Lu Li to eat more later, don't be polite, and left with everyone.
It is mighty when it comes, and it is also mighty when it leaves.
The servants were dealing with the blood on the scene, Xie Tingyue pushed Chu Mu out of the veranda around the corner.
"Have you eaten yet?"
Chu Mu pursed his lips slightly and shook his head.
Xie Tingyue frowned: "Ginkgo hasn't brought you food yet?"
Chu Mu: "I've been walking around since just now, maybe it's not because she didn't send it off, but because she didn't find me."
Xie Tingyue thought about it, and looked at Chu Mu seriously: "Then I'll take you to eat now, and put aside other things first. You are not in good health, and you have to eat on time, or you will feel uncomfortable at night."
Chu Mu looked at him with a smile, very obedient and well-behaved: "Listen to Madam."
Qin Ping silently covered his eyes.
I really can't see it!
Obviously I didn't eat on purpose, but I acted pitifully in front of my wife, master, you are not such a master!
Lu Li frowned and winked, and made a sound of tsk tsk.
Chu Mu looked at him with a smile, very 'kind': "What's wrong with you? Hungry for dim sum?"
He was making fun of Lu Li's excuse just now.
Lu Li was not annoyed at all, and responded smoothly: "Yeah, I'm so greedy, I'm flustered, but I'm alone, I'm almost hungry, and no one asked me a word."
The two are used to running on each other, shameless, Xie Tingyue was a little embarrassed, and invited Lu Li with a smile: "Young Master Lu, don't go to the outer courtyard, eat with us."
Before Lu Li could speak, he felt a chill behind his back, with a murderous aura!
Looking at him again, sure enough, although my best friend looked at him with gentle eyes and a very generous smile, but he couldn't hide it from him, all danger was hidden under the surging tide, as if to say: Do you dare to promise to try
Lu Lihaoxuan laughed out loud.
He just meant a few mean words, making trouble with this couple, so that they won't lose their eyes to this point, and disturbing other people's love between husband and wife will be punished by heaven.
"I just met an acquaintance outside, and we made an appointment to have a couple of drinks together." Lu Li declined Xie Tingyue politely, and looked at Chu Mu with mean eyes, "Anyway, this person can't drink, of course my best friend will help. Give him a good taste of the wine."
Chu Mu's eyes curved, and he smiled more gracefully and modestly: "I have a wife, everything is enough, unlike some people, life is cold, cold wine, cold night, cold bed."
Xie Tingyue: ...
They are indeed close friends, and they have a tacit understanding of stabbing each other.
"Then I'll send him over to find you later." Xie Tingyue said goodbye to Lu Li very quickly, and pushed Chu Mu away.
No matter how late it was, he was afraid that the scene would get out of control, and his best friends would not hurt each other enough, and they would have to fight.
…
It was rare for the two of them to steal a moment of silence and have a good meal, but Xie Tingyue and Chu Mu didn't have much time to talk tenderly and flirt. The Chu family hosts plum banquets, they are the hosts, and they are already doing them a favor if they don’t go to the table to accompany the wine, why do you want to be lazy
Chu Mu looked at the rice in the bowl, feeling very regretful.
Xie Tingyue finished her meal in a hurry, checked Chu Mu's clothes herself, frowned and changed him into warmer ones, and stuffed a purple gold hand stove with a hundred butterflies in the past.
Chu Mu pinched the center of his brows, his expression not gloomy.
The long follower, Qin Ping, was very considerate: "Master, don't worry, the Mei Banquet is already over halfway, if you bear with it, it will be over. In the evening and in the future, Madam will belong to you alone."
Chu Mu raised his eyebrows and glanced at him.
Did not speak.
Qin Ping: ...
Why did he feel that what the master just endured was: You are a mere follower, what do you know
It's not coaxing, it's not good if you don't coax, I'm really tired.
Everyone is busy.
Xie Tingyue saw He Yuanqi.
This person... is not a May banquet guest.
He frowned slightly, and didn't feel at ease when he watched He Yuanqi walk aside all the way, turned away from the crowd of guests, and walked towards the management room.
He Yuanqi's business scope is very wide. Chu's shopping has a cooperation with his shop. Those who have signed a contract often order things. It is not surprising that he comes occasionally. But why today
As for the delivery, there was a clerk running errands, and He Yuanqi was the owner, so he didn't even have to settle the bill himself, and suddenly it was unreasonable.
Because she didn't show signs of it before, and knew that this person was not a good person, Xie Tingyue recruited Brother Dong and asked him to follow him quietly, paying attention to what He Yuanqi did.
He was busy all over the place, and he didn't forget to care about Chu Mu, and his eyes would always linger where he was. Chu Mu was also very cooperative, and was always within his sight, and he would see it every time he turned around.
This time it still is.
Chu Mu was entertaining guests, and Lu Li was by his side. Sitting next to them was a man Xie Tingyue didn't know. He was wearing a blue robe. He was serious and didn't like to laugh very much. He had a very different temperament from Chu Mu and Lu Li.
Seemingly aware that someone was watching, the blue-robed youth turned his head and glanced at Xie Tingyue, calm and expressionless, only nodded slightly.
Xie Tingyue smiled back.
For some reason, at this moment, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
It's not that there's something wrong with the blue-robed youth, but the picture of Chu Mu and Lu Li sitting together...
These two are close friends, and their friendship is very deep, why doesn't he have an impression
In the memory of the previous life, there is no relevant information.
"Pound-pound-pound-"
Xie Tingyue's heart beat faster and she was very anxious, as if she had forgotten something... very important.
Road away road away road away...
ah!
He remembered, the dead Lu Li!
This name once swept the streets and alleys, and it became famous when I was young. It went smoothly when I grew up, but it is a pity that I died young. The death was also very strange, the government only said it was a vendetta murder, and Lu Li was killed by a prisoner who personally punished him, but more information was ambiguous and unknown.
People are usually very happy to talk about mysterious things, so the name was once talked about in the streets and alleys.
But people's attention is limited, and there will never be only one focus event. As time goes by, newer things attract attention, and Lu Li is gradually forgotten.
Xie Tingyue patted her head vigorously.
It's no wonder that when he met and mentioned this name, he felt impressed, but he couldn't remember where he saw it, so it was like that.
Lu Li's existence was too short-lived, and he didn't have much contact with him, so he didn't pay attention to it deliberately.
But today, he knew that Lu Li was a very good person, bright and funny, he was Chu Mu's best friend and someone worthy of his deep friendship, so his mood was different.
When is it coming
That sensitive date
Xie Tingyue frowned and thought for a long time but couldn't remember it. He only remembered that he was wearing unlined clothes at that time, and the weather was fine, maybe it was spring or autumn... But it seemed to be next year, definitely not now, the plum feast in winter!
He was a little worried, how should he remind the other party, or help the other party escape this crisis
Memory is an amazing thing. It hides in your mind. Sometimes you think hard, but you can’t think of anything. Sometimes you don’t want to. It thinks it’s time, and it will suddenly come out, forcing you to accept it.
Just as Xie Tingyue thought of the word "dead", when she thought of Lu Li, her consciousness suddenly diverged, and she suddenly remembered another thing.
On the day of the plum feast of the Chu family, someone died!
When Lin's method succeeded, he was quickly dismissed by his father, hated himself, and subconsciously paid attention to the Xie family's affairs, but he was in the countryside at that time, and he couldn't hear a lot of news. people.
Of course it wasn't Mama Huang who was shot in the back house, it was a man who died!
This incident caused a lot of trouble, the reputation of the Chu family went from bad to worse, and the fortune seemed to have come to an end under this plum feast. Chu Mu's health became worse and worse, and he couldn't get out of bed gradually. Even the Chu family can't get good medicine...
Who is it
who is it!
The subsequent series of encounters of the main family may not be because of this person, but because of the death of this person, the reputation of the Chu family has been ruined, a vicious circle, and the decline is out of control.
Xie Tingyue clenched her fists, no, this person must be found! Best to stop this from happening!
He has already entered the Chu family, and the two parties will be bound in a short period of time. It is a community of interests. If the Chu family is not good, he will not be able to get well...
try to find!
Must find out what's going on!
Once again, He Yuanqi's appearance caught his attention.
Looking at the entire Mei Yan, there is nothing suspicious except that something is wrong with Xie Ru, which is him. Xie Ru has been brought home by Xie Liangbei, is that He Yuanqi
In short, it is always right to see more!
Xie Tingyue began to pay attention to He Yuanqi, and quietly fell behind them to see what he was going to do, and she didn't even have the heart to look at Chu Mu.
Then he discovered that He Yuanqi was really suspicious, he seemed to be very familiar with the Chu family's house, he had precise targets, and he picked remote paths...
He Yuanqi entered the study, Chu Mu's study.
Xie Tingyue narrowed her eyes slightly.
Why did he enter Chu Mu's study room, what was he looking for
He Yuanqi is a wealthy businessman himself, and he is not short of money, so he has no reason to be a thief day in and day out. What he wants is not wealth... but a chance to get rich
But if you want to choose someone to threaten, isn't it good for the old lady or the second master? One is the oldest in the family, and the other is an official in the court. Anyone may have important things. Why did He Yuanqi choose Chu Mu
In this family, Chu Mu only occupies the precious status, but actually has no authority, and has nothing to do with outside interests. What does He Yuanqi want for a patient who has been lingering on the bed all year round
Xie Tingyue thought quickly, with countless thoughts swirling in his mind, and he became more and more nervous. He even suspected that the truth of his previous life was that He Yuanqi came to kill Chu Mu. But Chu Mu was fine in his previous life... he couldn't be said to be fine, he was even more ill, but he didn't die, and this Mei Yan, Chu Mu also managed to survive.
So... what the hell is the truth!
…
Chu Mu didn't know the truth about his previous life, but he obviously knew more than Xie Tingyue.
Today's plum feast, Qin Ping will die.
because of him.
He didn't know who the real murderer was who wanted to kill him. This time he didn't shirk away, but he kept on entertaining guests until now, waiting for this murderer.
To live again, he wants everything, clearly.
It's almost time now.
But Xie Tingyue moved.
He was obviously quiet before, but he suddenly became tense, probably because he remembered something...
what to do
At the same time, two people in different places had the same question in their hearts: Should we discuss this matter with each other, and how should we talk about it? Could it be that I have the ability to predict, so I have to be honest
Will the other party accept it, will he be afraid, will everything that was just stabilized just now change because of this accident
