Chapter 198
"Thank you, young master." Malt walked down the steps and bowed his knees to the man and gave him a blessing.
Baozhu then took the cloth bag, ran down the steps, went to the man, held the cloth bag, and signaled the man to put the ball of hair into the cloth bag.
At this time, the man approached, and the girl surrounded him clearly saw the man's appearance, and someone whispered.
"Is it Liulang?" Surprise.
"It should be." Hopefully yes.
"I've never seen it off the stage." Hope is, but not sure.
"It must be that he came from the flower hall. Who else is there except Liulang?"
"You're so sure that you're all so sure on the stage."
"Of course I'm sure. I secretly went to the backstage and saw it." The last little girl realized that she had left her mouth, lowered her head, and squeezed into the crowd.
"When is it? Why don't you tell us?" Her little sister could hear it clearly and immediately became dissatisfied.
Although the little girls dare not play too much, they also kept chattering.
Xun Qingran naturally noticed that although this person is different from the stage, he is indeed very similar to that Liulang. He never thought that an actor had such good skills.
"I'm afraid this bird is not the wife's. What does the wife want her to do?" Liulang did not hand over the hair ball to Baozhu, but spoke.
"The sound is nice, it must be Liulang." The little girls became a little turbulent.
The voice is very nice, but maybe because of the excessive opera singing, Xun Qingran always feels like talking with a voice. Xun Qingran looked at the Liulang carefully again. Her face was considered heroic, and what was even more eye-catching was the temperament of her body, which reminded Xun Qingran of the four words "Lutuo in the blue shirt". However, this Luotuo also showed unruly and free and easy, and even more noble. Especially as she spoke, she smiled at the corner of her mouth and narrowed her eyes and swept it inadvertently. Several little girls lowered their heads and their faces were flushed.
Xun Qingran turned to look at the girls in her family, and her face was still as normal as she wanted. She couldn't help but nodded secretly.
"How do you know it's not our wife's? But I know it must be yours. Since that's the case, our wife saw it first, and it's our wife's... Besides, you just said that you took it down for our wife. Could it be that you have to regret it now and want to take it for yourself?" Malt said tactfully.
Xun Qingran laughed secretly, Malt's last sentence was well said.
Liulang seemed to have never expected Malt to be so sharp, and he looked at Malt deeply.
I heard the breath of a little girl slutty.
Malt was unmoved. She followed Xun Qingran. The handsome man met every day, so of course he would not be fascinated by the people in front of him.
"This bird is injured, I will take good care of it and heal its injuries." Xun Qingran said.
Liulang looked down at the hair ball in his hand again, then turned around and bowed to Xun Qingran, holding the hair ball in both hands to present it.
Xun Qingran nodded.
Baozhu gently wrapped the hair ball with a cloth bag, and returned to Xun Qingran with Malt and showed the hair ball to Xun Qingran.
However, it was a little bigger than a palm. The feathers were white and fluffy, the eyes were reddish-brown, the beak and claws were tender yellow, and they were still young birds. Xun Qingran reached out and touched the fur ball. It was not a pigeon or any bird she was familiar with. It was wrapped in a cloth bag, but she struggled slightly, and the root of one wing was covered with blood. Somehow, it fell on the tree in the Dong Mansion.
Xun Qingran asked Platycodon to take two ingots of silver and hand it over to Baozhu.
Baozhu took two ingots of silver, went down the steps and handed it to Liulang.
"It's just a simple task, and I dare not accept such a heavy reward from my wife." Liulang refused to accept the money and refused.
"Our wife said it was given to the opera troupe." Baozhu said with a crisp voice.
Both girls were so smart. Liulang looked up at Xun Qingran again, and Xun Qingran was lowering his head to tease the hairball.
"Then... Liulang thanked his wife." Liulang said.
"Let's go back." Xun Qingran turned around and said when he saw Liu Lang accepting the silver.
A crowd surrounded Xun Qingran and walked back. Xun Qingran looked down at the fur in her arms. She didn't know what kind of bird species it was, but the snow-white feathers first gained her favor. After Liulang rescued the fur from the tree, she saw the beak and claws of the fur, which made her eyes lit up. Instinctively felt that the young bird must be extraordinary when it grew up, and she had the idea of accepting the bird.
Of course, there was another reason that prompted her to make up her mind, that was, Liulang appeared outside the flower hall and looked at the hairy ball.
Xun Qingran felt that Liu Lang knew this Maotuan. She thought that after giving this Maotuan, Liu Lang would explain to her what kind of bird it was, but Liu Lang said nothing.
Maybe she was wrong, maybe Liulang didn't recognize that this was a bird.
As soon as I walked to the entrance of the flower hall, I saw an old lady from the Dong family leading Aster to come hurriedly from outside.
When Ziyuan saw Xun Qingran, she hurriedly came forward to pay her respects.
"Madam, the fifth aunt is here, please go back." Ziyuan said.
Qi Wanrong is here, didn’t he say he would come in two days, why did he come in advance? Xun Qingran wondered.
When Mrs. Dong saw Xun Qingran, she went there for a while and found it from the flower hall.
"A guest came to my house, so I had to say goodbye first. I won't go in and resign. Madam, please be careful for me." Xun Qingran said to Mrs. Dong.
A guest came to Xun Qingran's house, and Mrs. Dong was not willing to force her to stay, so she brought someone to see Xun Qingran out.
Xun Qingran got on the carriage and left Dong's mansion before asking Ziyuan, "What's wrong?"
She just saw that Ziyuan's expression was a little wrong, but she was naturally not easy to disclose the matter in front of someone else in the Dong family. Ziyuan also knew this truth, so she didn't say much.
Sure enough, Ziyuan had already said a lot. When she saw Xun Qingran ask, she hurriedly replied: "Madam, that's the case..."
…………
Qi Wanrong's carriage stopped at the gate of the Governor's Mansion. The woman who followed the car got out of the car, went to the gate, and handed the post to the soldiers guarding the door.
"...I am the sister of the Governor, Mrs. Jiang, the garrison of Fuyuan County, Pingxi Town, came to pay homage to the Adult and Lady."
The soldier reported it in. After a while, the woman in charge came out and led Qi Wanrong's carriage into the Governor's Mansion from the west gate until the second gate stopped.
Xun Qingran went out for social events and kept Madam Xu at home. After hearing the news outside, Madam Xu hurriedly brought people to the second gate and picked up Qi Wanrong.
After Qi Wanrong knew that Madam Xu was the escort nanny invited by Xun Qingran, and now taking care of the housework for Xun Qingran, he was very polite.
"Today is the birthday of the Censor Mrs. Dong, so I invited my wife to listen to the opera. I don't know that my fifth aunt has sent someone to notify her." Madam Xu explained while picking Qi Wanrong up to the inner house.
"I know best that Pingxi Town is not as good as the capital, so there is a rare pastime. I am not an outsider, so don't rush to sweep away the excitement of my fourth sister-in-law." Qi Wanrong said with a smile.
Madam Xu brought Qi Wanrong to the living room and ordered someone to put in fragrant tea and fruits, and talk to Qi Wanrong.
"This Governor's Office is so mad. I've come here once when my master first took office." After a while, Qi Wanrong said that she wanted to take a look around.
Naturally, Madam Xu would not stop him, so she accompanied Qi Wanrong out of the house and strolled around. After a while, a wife in charge came to find Madam Xu. It was the front yard to collect things. Madam Xu had to ask someone to accompany Qi Wanrong and go to deal with it first.
The one who was left to accompany Qi Wanrong was an old lady brought from the Qi Mansion. The old lady was already a little decent, and Qi Wanrong was also familiar with her. With this old lady, Qi Wanrong was a little more comfortable than when Madam Xu was there.
After walking like this, I arrived outside Xinlan Courtyard.
"The scenery here is very good." Qi Wanrong said.
In Xinlan Courtyard, I don’t know which governor was in front of me, I spent a lot of effort and built a garden with a bit of Jiangnan. Although it is not as elegant as the governor’s office, when it comes to exquisiteness, Xinlan Courtyard is second to none.
"My aunt has such a good eye. When the lady got here, she got her letter from her and specially cleaned up the yard. She originally kept it for her to live when she came." The woman smiled and said.
"Oh?" Qi Wanrong heard the woman say this, and she was naturally happy to know that Xun Qingran attaches so much importance to her, but when she heard the word "Original" and asked, "Who is living here now?" In Pingxi Town, is there anyone closer to the Governor and the Governor's wife than she?
"It's Madam Song." The old woman said.
Qi Wanrong curled her lips slightly when she heard this. The nanny in Qi Mansion is naturally treated better than ordinary servants. However, servants are still servants. It is not appropriate to live alone in a yard, let alone such an exquisite residence.
"The fourth brother and the fourth sister-in-law are too kind. Madam Song is so lucky. The fourth brother has become a chief official. The old lady has not been doing well yet, so she has become noble first." In her tone, she was a little dissatisfied.
"It's not Madam Song who lives alone, Madam Song's niece lives here." The woman said again.
"Oh, niece?" Qi Wanrong looked into the yard with a meaningful look.
"What's going on? Could it be that Madam Song's niece has any origin?" Qi Wanrong asked the woman.
"I don't know why Madam Song met her niece. Seeing that she was helpless, she took her into the mansion." The woman said.
"That's the case, but you have to go and take a look."
Qi Wanrong took people into Xinlan Courtyard.
…………
"... After Madam Xu's side had handled the matter, she went to find the fifth aunt. The fifth aunt was in Xinlan Courtyard and saw Miss Xin and the fifth aunt having a quarrel." Ziyuan said to Xun Qingran.
"Do you know why?" Xun Qingran asked.
"I don't know if my grandma still remembers that when the ranch outside the city came, Madam Song asked for it, and Madam had to have a small pot. When Madam Wu came, Madam Xu talked with her and said that the milk tea here in Pingxi Town was very good. Madam Xu cooked milk tea to entertain Madam Wu. Madam Wu drank a cup and thought it was good. When she wanted to drink it again, Madam Xu looked for it all, but she didn't have any, so she had to find a crispy cheese. Finally, Madam Wu didn't say anything. As a result, when Madam Wu arrived at Xinlan Courtyard, she saw that Miss Xin was washing her hands with a whole basin of **." Ziyuan replied.
