Chapter 912

Being nosy is a very annoying act at any time, whether it is well-intentioned or not, but Liu's approach makes Erfu feel very happy, at least it proves that Liu's love for Xiao Qi's student is from the bottom of his heart, otherwise as a Mr. Xixi, he will never get involved in the idle affairs of the main family, Liu is a smart person, and he will never make such a low-level mistake, so it can show that the fourth master has a good vision, and he chose a competent good gentleman for Xiao Qi.

However, such a misunderstanding, she thinks it is better to explain it as soon as possible.

Early the next morning, Erfu simply washed and cleaned up, and then came to the West Courtyard early to wait for the Liu family to enter the house to teach, and patiently sat in the upper room waiting for the study to finish the class, and smiled and asked Shilan to invite Liu to the upper room to talk.

If you don't say it, don't do bad things, and don't be afraid of ghosts calling the door.

Although Liu knew that what she did was out of good intentions, she also knew that the consequences of her doing so were likely to cause dissatisfaction with the Fuzhong Fu Jin Erfu, so when she heard Shilan talk about Erfu's invitation to her to come to the room, the whole person became nervous, but she was not too worried, anyway, she was not a slave who signed a deed of sale in the house, and the big deal was to lose this well-paid errand.

And with her talent and literary talent, she lost this errand, and it is not that she can't find the next home, with such an idea, Liu's heart gave birth to a little bit of pride in sacrificing her life, she smiled lightly at Shilan who came in to pass the word, and said softly: "I'm really embarrassed to bother Fujin to wait for me for so long, but I still have homework to explain to Xiao Qigege, and I hope the girl will wait here for a while." ”

After saying that, she bowed apologetically, turned around and went back to the inner room where she was teaching.

Although she was not afraid that Erfu would take away her errand, she was not worried about leaving Xiao Qi alone in the house to face the scheming Ji Fujin, thinking that she might not have a chance to talk to Xiao Qi after this day, she handed Xiao Qi, who had already packed up the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone and was about to leave, back to her side, and explained in a low voice, so that Xiao Qi was stunned and froze in place, she patted Xiao Qi's head and walked to the upper room with Shilan.

In the upper room, before Liu Shi had time to deliver an impassioned speech in her heart, Xiao Qi hurriedly ran over, she grabbed Liu Shi who looked open, turned her head to look at Erfu who was sitting on the top and smiled at the corner of her mouth, and said coquettishly: "Eniang, there seems to be a little misunderstanding between you and Mr. ”

"I know there is a misunderstanding between us, so didn't I explain it specially!" Erfu got up, came to Liu's side, hugged Xiao Qi's shoulder, and smiled and said the invitation to invite Liu and Xiao Qi to have dinner in the main courtyard.

"Forgive me, the concubine is entangled in trivial matters at home, and she really has no time to separate. ”

"Mr. Liu, there is no need to refuse in such a hurry, there are some things I want to talk to you about carefully, as for your family, I have already arranged for someone to pass the message. Erfu could see the vigilance in Liu's eyes, she smiled and rubbed Xiao Qi's head, and said in a low voice, regardless of whether Liu had agreed or not, she took Xiao Qi's fat little hand and walked out, she believed that Liu would catch up if she really cared about Xiao Qi, if she didn't catch up, Shilan would urge Liu again and again, and would never give Liu a chance to turn around and run.

The meal of the left and right Liu family is settled, regardless of whether Liu is willing or not.

In front of the West Courtyard, two soft sedan chairs that have been prepared a long time ago, Erfu and Xiao Qi sit on the same top, and the other soft sedan chair is prepared for the Liu family, now the weather is getting colder and colder day by day, if she doesn't want to solve this matter quickly, she really doesn't want to leave the warm pavilion like spring for a moment!

As Erfu expected, Liu Shi didn't worry about Xiao Qi and Erfu being alone, stood in the hall and gritted his teeth, turned his head to look at Shilan who was standing and waiting next to him, and chased him out with his skirt, because he was too worried about Xiao Qi's safety, he didn't even wear the cloak hanging at the door of the wing, so he chased him out of the door directly and sat in the soft sedan chair that had been waiting outside for a long time.

And Xiao Qi, who was sitting in the soft sedan chair with Erfu one step ahead of Liu, did not speak in Erfu's arms as usual, but kept bowing her head and pondering the few specious words left by Mr. Liu. E-niang, Mr. Liu said before that you might harm me, shouldn't she think that you love me so much that you want to use me to compete for favor, why didn't you make it clear to Mr. just now, if she goes to talk nonsense with Amma, it will affect E-Niang!"

"You girl, do you think you're the kind of person who can be moved by a few words?

Besides, it's too late for you to worry about it, she has already told you Amma, if it weren't for you Ama talking to me, how would I know that your Mr. Liu would have such a deep misunderstanding of me, could it be that you girl deliberately sued you in front of your husband for my tricks, which made her misunderstand!" Erfu smiled and knocked on Xiao Qi's head, and said softly.

"You left Mr. at home to eat, do you want to tell her your true identity?" Xiao Qi asked with a smile, she was still more worried about Eniang, as long as Ama would not misunderstand Eniang, as for whether Eniang would not like the erudite Mr. Liu because of this, she was not worried, after all, Erfu's impression of staying in Xiao Qi was very reasonable, and she would never be angry with Mr. Liu for this little thing.

In response to Xiao Qi's question, Erfu smiled and did not answer.

In Erfu's opinion, what her original identity is is no longer a secret, everyone who should know already knows, people who didn't know her before, have also got all kinds of reminders from the handkerchiefs they have made, and everyone is confused as not knowing, it's just that they don't want to mention it, the reason is naturally because of the old man Kangxi's holy decree of marriage, since the old man Kangxi said that she is Niu Co Lu's family, then she is not.

As for whether to tell Liu her true identity, it must be an inevitable choice.

She doesn't want this misunderstanding to get bigger and bigger, so that Liu Shi unknowingly made a knife in the hands of other people, especially Liu Shi is a person who often appears next to Xiao Qi, some words are said once, maybe no one will take it seriously, but if someone often mentions it, and this person is someone you trust very much, you will inevitably listen to it in your heart, and everyone will be golden, The three of them become tigers, this kind of thing is not terrible, the most afraid is that someone will constantly blow some pillow wind that is not conducive to you around the people you value, not to mention the thin royal blood and family affection, and the already not very strong family affection, where can it survive the accumulated gossip, this is the reason why Erfu decided to go to the Liu family so quickly to make it clear.

Xiao Qi is the meat that fell from her body, and she never wants to make trouble with Xiao Qi against mother and daughter.

Here, Erfu and Xiao Qi went to the upper room of the main courtyard without saying a word, and the Liu family, who was left alone in the west courtyard, also came over soon, but her heart was not calm, and she had long lost the calmness she had when she saw Erfu, the concubine Fujin.

In a short period of time, Liu thought a lot, and he was stunned to frighten himself crazy.

She suddenly found that she seemed to regret being so nosy, and she didn't feel distressed about losing this errand of Mr. Xixi in the Fourth Master's Mansion, don't look at her as noble as Erfu, but she is not a poor person who lacks clothes and wears, and the poor can't afford to read, her mother's family is a well-known family of poetry and books in Beijing, and her husband's family is also a farming and reading family with a few Hanlin Jinshi, and she doesn't care about the money given by the Fourth Master's Mansion, but she is worried that Erfu will be angry about this, and her husband, uncle and others who are officials in the court.

The reason why the Liu family came to the Fourth Master's Mansion to be a Mr. Xixi was because of the sincere invitation of the Fourth Master, and secondly, because he wanted to help her husband gain a firm foothold in the court, otherwise she was a woman, how could she do such a showy thing, especially since she was still a Han girl who paid the most attention to the door and did not go out of the second door.

Call......

The soft sedan chair stopped at the gate of the main courtyard, and she listened to the whispering sound from outside the sedan chair, and her mood was even more nervous, but since it had happened, no matter how much she regretted it, it was useless, and Liu had to cheer up to face everything that might happen.

After all, she is worthy of her heart, she is just doing her duty as a teacher.

If she was really angry with her husband's family, she would invite herself to go to court and cut off with her husband's family.

With this thought, Liu's steps were much calmer.

In the upper room, the round table was already full of Xiao Shengzi's best dishes, and when Erfu saw Liu come in, she smiled and beckoned her to the table, she didn't know Liu's mental journey along the way, and she didn't care about Liu's wariness of her, she believed that as long as she spoke out, these problems would no longer exist.

"Mr. Liu, you have to be so restrained, you should eat, you should drink, this is an ordinary family banquet, and I sincerely thank you for teaching Xiao Qi so well. Looking at the Liu family, who was still a little nervous, Erfu raised his hand and sent the palace maid who was waiting in the room, and personally sandwiched a chopstick dish for the Liu family, and said with a smile.

Liu replied cautiously: "Fujin, you are too polite, the concubine is just trying her best." ”

Seeing that Liu was still so restrained, the smile on the corner of his mouth froze, he put down the chopsticks in his hand, stiffened his face, and said in a deep voice: "If you are so modest, then our meal will not be delicious, I know what you are worried about, originally I didn't want to eat when I talked about such a thing, but I think if I don't make it clear, you won't be able to eat this meal." ”

Seeing Erfu's face suddenly change, Liu's heart was stirred, but after years of upbringing, she still maintained the grace she should have, and replied with a quiet smile on her face: "Fujin's words, the concubine doesn't quite understand, and please make it clear." ”

Sure enough, every woman who can become a housewife in this era is a good actor.

Erfu shook her head with a smile, turned her head and glanced at Xiao Qi, and did not answer.

This kind of thing still needs Xiao Qi to say in person, which is also the reason why she brought Xiao Qi over for dinner, otherwise how could she be willing to toss her own children in this cold day, just because she was afraid that even if she told the truth to the Liu family, she was Xiao Qi's biological mother, and the Liu family would think that she was lying.

It's different if you say it to Xiao Qi.

Sure enough, when Xiao Qi Tiantian called Erfu and told the Liu family about the secret in the fourth master's mansion, the whole Liu family fell into an inexplicable emotion, this is a relaxed feeling after worrying, this is a feeling of shame after being a villain in vain, this is a feeling of self-embarrassment after being nosy, in short, this feeling is very sour.

Liu looked at Erfu who was sitting next to him with a wry smile very apologetically, got up and saluted, and said softly: "The concubine really didn't expect Fu Jin and Xiao Qi Gege to have such a relationship, too villainous, make a conclusion, and do things that tell right and wrong behind your back, and ask Fu Jin to forgive me." ”

The matter has come to this, she is not a fool, where can she not know that she has complained to the fourth master, it has been known by Erfu, the more she understands, the more ashamed she feels, the more she feels ashamed, and when facing Erfu's peaceful eyes, she really wants to find a crack to get into.

However, Erfu told the Liu family about this, but he didn't mean to scold the Liu family.

She got up with a smile, picked up the Liu family who stood up and saluted to herself, turned her head and looked at Xiao Qi, who was sitting at the table without moving, and beckoned Liu to talk in the warm pavilion, Liu is Xiao Qi's master in the end, she can't let Liu lose face in front of Xiao Qi no matter what, otherwise Liu will have no majesty in front of Xiao Qi, how can a master who has no majesty at all teach Xiao Qi who is noble and has a detached personality and is naughty.

The warm pavilion is actually not suitable for Erfu to receive the unfamiliar Liu family here.

It's just that Xiao Qi is sitting in the hall right now, and talking in the study is too formal, if he talks in the east room, he can't hide Xiao Qi who is sitting in the hall and eating, and the tip room arranged as a bedroom is even more inappropriate to greet the Liu family.

Erfu also thought about it for a while, and then had to let the Liu family come to the warm pavilion.

Fortunately, she likes quiet and elegant decoration on weekdays, so it is not rude, she smiled and beckoned Liu to sit on the big kang near the window, turned around and took out the box of dried fruits in the kang cabinet, put it on the kang table, and carried the teapot on the corner table, and poured two cups of hot tea herself, then threw off her shoes and sat on the kang, looking like a gossip and homely, and said softly:" You don't have to be so sorry, in fact, I also want to thank you, if you don't really plan for Xiao Qi, you won't talk to the fourth master in private about my abnormal behavior, if I am really a scheming stepmother, then I will naturally blame you, I think you are meddling, but who made me Xiao Qi's biological mother, I don't know how happy you will be so concerned about Xiao Qi's girl, so you really don't have to feel sorry anymore!"

"Fujin is magnanimous, and the concubine really doesn't know what to say. Liu's eyes were red and she replied, it was not that she had never been Mr. Xixi, the head of a princely and aristocratic family like the Fourth Master's Mansion, but she had never been treated so equally, not to mention that she had done things that were not conducive to Erfu before.

Erfu smiled and waved her hand, and said softly: "It doesn't matter what you say, you just need to teach Xiao Qi that girl for me, this girl is too naughty, but she is also too smart, and I am really not good at doing these things, I think you also know that my Fujin is not very successful, all kinds of things in the house are like a mess, with you by Xiao Qi's side, I can rest assured." ”
