Chapter 95: Mianhualou

Xi Fuwei and Ouyang Yuanshui saw Zou Yiang wearing a festive red brocade robe, bringing two Tsing Yi young men, walking quickly from the dim sum shop next door, and said with surprise and joy: "Mr. Shen, really I didn't expect to meet you here!"
"You should talk to the old lady and Mrs. Shang when you go back. Let's change your husband." Xi Fuwei nodded at him and said, "How can there be such a gentleman, and give you vacations every now and then, studying like this? Can it be done? Don't cheat on food and drink at your house."
Zou Yiang said with a little embarrassment: "In the past few days, there are many friends and relatives in my family. I have to follow my dad and grandmother to meet guests. My grandmother is afraid that I will be too tired. Since yesterday, she has spoken to let me rest. It's over."
He hesitated and then asked, "Sir, where do you live now? What do you plan to do next?"
"I live with my elder brother now." Xi Fuwei said casually, "The next thing... Take one step and look one step at a time, the old lady is generous to the left and right, and for the time being, there is money by her side, so she has no worries about her livelihood."
Seeing Zou Yiang frowned and looked at himself, he smiled and said, "By the way, do you know what your grandmother will do that day to go to women's school?"
"I asked my grandmother about it later, and they all said that because the end of the year was approaching, my grandmother was so quiet that she wanted to go to the girls school to see her sisters." Zou Yiang shook his head, "I think this is prevarication. Grandmother always hurts the most. If I feel lonely at my knees and want to visit my grandchildren, I should first go to the school in front to see me, not my sisters."
The problem is that Mrs. Zhuang insists on saying this. He has no choice but to hate and promise with Xi Fuwei, "There is no airtight wall in the world. For the time being, I will allow the culprit to rejoice and wait until I find the real culprit. After that, never be merciful!"
Knowing that Xi Fuwei is cunning, not a foolish person, she asked hopefully, "By the way, Mr. Shen, do you have any doubts yourself?"
"Who knows?" Xi Fuwei said, "I haven't been in the Zou Mansion for a few days, and I know people and don't know my heart."
When I said this, my heart suddenly moved, and Zou Yiang was dismissed in a few words, looking at Ouyang Yuanshui who was next to him, "I said, I was sent from the Zou Mansion, shouldn't you do it?"
Ouyang Yuanshui was surprised: "What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?"
"Why are you doing this?" Xi Fuwei ignored his pretentious surprise, "Is afraid that if I continue to stay in the Zou Mansion, it will disturb your plan?"
"At any rate, it's half a colleague." Ouyang Yuanshui said, "you can't order something good from me? For example, I think there may be drastic changes in the Zou Mansion. I'm afraid that it is not safe for you to stay there, so I will give you a hand?"
Xi Fuwei sneered and said, "Do you admit that?"
Ouyang Yuanshui said: "There is no way if you don't admit it, you think so. Even if I firmly deny it, would you believe it?"
"No." Xi Fuwei groaned, "What do you want to do?"
"It's really not me." Ouyang Yuanshui sighed and said, "Although I am indeed suspicious, but this time it is really not...Have you considered the people in Fenzhilou?"
Xi Fuwei said: "I have considered it, I was most suspicious of Fu Chuoxian before."
"She?" Ouyang Yuanshui thought for a while, and said, "It shouldn't be her. Although this girl is not a kind-hearted master, she wins her eyes. It's not the kind of person who gets mad with jealousy and envy. Lord. At least until her goal of marrying a golden turtle is achieved, she shouldn't do things that may affect her lifelong future... Especially she should be very clear that you are not a fuel-efficient lamp."
Xi Fuwei groaned: "Isn't she trying to marry that son Zeng? Then son Zeng looks different from Wen Xianyun. Before Fu Chuoxian's birthday, son Zeng was a clear-cut speaker to help Wen Xianyun."
"But Wen Xianyun is also very clear about your current details." Ouyang Yuanshui reminded, "Knowing that even if you leave the Zou Mansion, there is nowhere to go! Even because you are directly in front of Shen Baihu now, more than in Zou Mansion. Be safe. What is he doing so hard to drive you out of the Zou Mansion? Unless he has an internal response in front of Shen Baihu, make sure he can get rid of you now!"
"Isn't there the backing of Dingguo Mansion?" Xi Fuwei was very vigilant towards Wen Xianyun and Xu Jingyuan. He immediately pointed out without thinking, "Maybe they plan to drive me out of Zou Mansion and let Lord Shen thought that I was useless and voluntarily gave up on me; or because I had to take shelter in front of Lord Shen, and sue Shen's elders such as the Shen family, slander me and Lord Shen's reputation, and let Shen's elders hold rather quiet The thought of killing wrong and not letting go started on me... how about this?"
Ouyang Yuanshui smiled and said: "I don't know how Ding Guo is going, but Miss Xu, believe me, she doesn't have the patience to travel in such a big circle. And do you think that the parents of Shen like Miss Xu very much? Don't say whether she will go to Shen's parents and mutter, even if she does, whether Shen's family will take it seriously is a question."
"You seem to know the nobles of Tianfu well?" Xi Fuwei said, "It's not like there are people in the court."
"It's as if your Lord Shen doesn't care about you." Ouyang Yuan said, "Shen Youqing didn't bring any people to Shandong. He lacked people very much. As long as he was not too stupid, he would be willing to cultivate. If you correspond to the sense of abundance. Interest, ask more when he is not so busy, will he not tell you?"
Xi Fuwei thought about it, so she stole Lan's way of cherishing the words like gold, and there was nothing to get up and talk about, I was afraid that he would frown on the spot and drive people away.
Then he said: "You made me think from Fenzhi Tower. There are only a few people in Fenzhi Tower. If it is not Fu Chuoxian, is it Yao Zhuosu? But I don't think it is very similar, because Yao Zhuosu is very much to my departure. A little reluctant...I don't think her surprise and helplessness at the time were just pretending."
If it's pretending, then Yao Zhuosu's acting skills are too good.
Ouyang Yuanshui said: "The girl in Fenzhilou, I am most familiar with you. Secondly, Fu Chuoxian. Yao Zhuosu is too courageous to help but I am really afraid to say a few words, she cried and asked me to marry her. Responsible... It really doesn’t seem like someone stabbing a knife in the back. But to put it bluntly, you, Fu Chuoxian and Yao Zhuosu are all outsiders who have not been here for a long time, even if the Yao family’s mother and daughter followed Mrs. Zhuang has some relatives. She is a distant relative. She hasn't seen each other for so many years. Can she be closer than the servants who have served in the Zou family for many years?"
"Are you saying that the servants of Fenzhilou went to complain to Mrs. Zhuang?" Xi Fuwei frowned. It is difficult to identify the specific person. Because of the preferential treatment of Xixi by the Zou Mansion, Fenzhilou There are more than a dozen subordinates inside and out, all of whom were allocated by the Zou Mansion. Even if it was Mrs. Shang who was in charge of this matter, Mrs. Shang took over the housekeeping power from Mrs. Zhuang after all. Who knows if there is any old lady's eyeliner in it?
"I don't remember who I have offended." She thought for a while, and said, "But Zou Yiang has been looking for me several times at night, and maybe I was found one time, and I told the old lady. Do you suspect that I am arrogant?"
Ouyang Yuanshui smacked his tongue and said, "You actually met with that kid... he's only twelve, right? You are a real beast!"
"..." Xi Fuwei looked at him blankly.
He touched his chin, and changed his words: "That kid is too shameful! You are the husband of his sisters, and a generation higher than him, how could he treat you so disrespectfully, and ran to disturb you at night? You are still causing you to be misunderstood by Mrs. Zhuang! It's not proper! Don't worry, after the beginning of the year, I will give him a tenfold or eightfold assignment to help you get revenge!"
Xi Fuwei snorted, and was too lazy to pay attention to his messy words, only said: "Your Majesty has sent a secret envoy and will arrive soon. During this period, if you meet with Miss Xu again, remember to coax her to behave. Thinking about looking for things everywhere... so that we don’t have a headache for errands."
"This is your Jin Yiwei's errand, how did you explain it to me?" Ouyang Yuanshui said, "If it's your errand alone, I will definitely sell face, but is it for a group of you...remember to tell your hundreds of households when you look back? , It’s okay to ask me for help.
Seeing Xi Fuwei frowned, he said with interest, "I will share the benefits with you!"
Sure enough, the girl stretched out and said: "I went back and told an adult, I don't know if he promised or not."
They talked for a while, then waved goodbye.
Xi Fuwei went back to return to life with Shen Qilan, while Ouyang Yuanshui continued to stroll through the crowded streets. After a long while, he confirmed that no one was paying attention, and then flashed into the Mianhualou.
He is a frequent visitor here. As soon as he enters the door, he is greeted by the acquaintance of the tortoise, and asks him to go to a clean house. After entering the door, a cute little maid comes up to greet him and gives him a cup of tea. The girl was ordered to accompany a drink before, and she will come back after a while, flattering: "The girl has been talking about you for the past two days! She said that it is almost the New Year, and she specially made clothes for you, but she doesn't know whether it fits well. I hope you will come and give it a try. Our girl is a little temperamental. There are so many brother-in-laws who come and go, and you can't even see a thread, so you are worried about your brother-in-law."
Ouyang Yuanshui smiled brightly and said frivolously: "Your girl cares about me, how about you? Do you miss me too?"
"Brother-in-law is not serious!" He said as he reached out and squeezed the back of his hand while the little maid was pouring tea for himself, the peach blossom eyes were affectionate, and the provoked little maid stomped his feet reluctantly. Misunderstanding? Who in our building doesn't know that you are the girl in her heart?"
As he was talking, there was a tapping sound outside, and the door was pushed open, and a girl in a red dress came in full of alcohol, followed by a little maid holding a pipa behind her.
Seeing Ouyang Yuanshui, he was overjoyed and shouted softly, "Yuanlang, you are here!"
"Did you eat a lot of wine?" Ouyang Yuanshui graciously stepped forward to help, and complained again, "I'm not saying, if you meet such a life-threatening drinker, just report my name. This Jining mansion will probably give me Kind of face."
Helped her to sit down at the table and poured tea with her own hands. After some waiting, the girl said, "I'm much better... You two go to the kitchen and see, fix some of Yuanlang's favorite meals and ask the cook to take it. Be true, don’t be lazy!"
After dismissing the two maids, she squinted her eyes. Although her face was still drunk, her eyes were cold: "Why are you here again? But the father-in-law's orders have changed?"
