Chapter 275 Father and Son are Preoccupied
During dinner, there were only Wei father and son at the dinner table, plus Hong Xiaoduo and Kaiyang.
The father and son did not explain why the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did not come, and Hong Xiaoduo was too sensible to ask.
But she roughly guessed that Fahrenheit was in a bad mood and not in the right state. Her mother-in-law should be having dinner with her adopted grandson, the fake Tong'er.
During the dinner, Wei Junpei and his son were worried. The old man was initially hesitant because of what Hong Xiaoduo told him, but after asking Dongqing, the maid who went out with the Yin family, he felt heavier again. .
When Mrs. Yin left the house, she greeted the steward and said she had nothing to do and went to the street.
She is Tong'er's adoptive mother and the person who saved Tong'er. She is kind to the Wei family. No one can say no to the Wei family, so she arranged for the maid Dongqing to accompany her. , also took the silver, and told Dongqing Yin to pay the money to buy whatever she liked.
However, Dongqing said just now that they were shopping together, visiting embroidery shops, looking at embroidery threads, etc., and they didn't see anything Yin wanted to buy.
But when she entered a ready-made clothing store, Ms. Yin fell in love with a pair of autumn clothes, so she followed the female shopkeeper into the inner room to try them on. She wanted to follow, but Ms. Yin said no and asked her to wait outside.
Dongqing was asked to follow her in the house, but she was not told to keep an eye on Mrs. Yin. Therefore, Dongqing didn't think much and waited outside.
About a quarter of an hour later, Mrs. Yin came out and bought the autumn clothes. Dongqing paid the money. Mrs. Yin shied away and let her pay.
If Hong Xiaoduo hadn't said that to Wei Junpei, then even if he learned that Yin had gone out and was out of Dongqing's sight for a quarter of an hour, Wei Junpei wouldn't have thought too much about it.
But now, I have to think more.
Before entering the dining room, Wei Junpei had already arranged for someone to secretly check the clothing store and the female shopkeeper.
So, no matter how old Wei Junpei is now, no matter how many things he has experienced, he is not in the mood to entertain guests enthusiastically.
Wei Zizheng was worried about his wife.
After hearing what his wife said, before he could say anything, his wife said first: "Brother Zheng, do you also think that the reason why I reacted like this is because I met Kaiyang first and talked to him He has been with her for more than ten days, and he has already been preoccupied with Kaiyang? "
He wanted to tell his wife this, and it seemed that his wife had also thought of this possibility. At the same time, it also shows that the wife has not actually lost her mind. She wants to figure it out on her own and find the root cause.
It’s just that he couldn’t figure out why his father arranged dinner like this for his mother to share with Tong’er and his adoptive mother Yin.
Is it because the young lady Hong and the boy Kaiyang are guests?
However, something seems to have happened to his father, and it should be a very serious matter. Wei Zizheng would not be able to ask questions in front of outsiders.
The dinner table was richer than the lunch dishes. Kaiyang felt that his father and his son were not very happy, but seeing that Hong Xiaoduo was eating as if nothing had happened, he let go Eat.
Although Hong Xiaoduo didn't say when he would leave the capital, Kaiyang felt that he wouldn't stay in the capital for too long. The food cooked by the cooks in the Wei Mansion was so delicious, so he just had to show off seriously.
"It's too much for A Dian and the others to disturb you all afternoon. You and Kaiyang should have a good rest." Perhaps realizing that the dining table was too deserted and neglecting the guests, Wei Junpei apologized He spoke.
"It doesn't matter, I'm very happy to see them again." Hong Xiaoduo told the truth.
In fact, getting along with boys is easier and more comfortable than getting along with girls.
Of course, there are some top men, but the probability is small.
At this dinner, only Hong Xiaoduo and Kaiyang should be full. The two men, who had their own agendas, didn't eat much.
Hong Xiaoduo saw that as a guest, she couldn't just let them eat, eat, eat.
After dinner, as soon as they walked out of the dining hall, the Wei family father and son were startled to see a group of people in Wuyang Wuyang in front of them.
Taking a closer look, it was Yin Qingyun and the others.
"Sir." Yin Qingyun shouted first.
"If you don't go to have dinner, what are you doing here?" Wei Junpei asked.
Without counting the number of people, he could be sure that except for one in the study, all the guards were probably here.
"Replying to your lord, we are waiting for Miss Hong here and would like to have a discussion with her." Yin Qingyun was the leader, so he spoke. When Hong Xiaoduo heard this, he was about to take a step forward when Mr. Wei next to him said: "Nonsense, Miss Hong is a guest in the mansion. We just finished dinner. What are we discussing?"
"Xiao Duo, I still have something to tell you. Come with me to the study." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Hong Xiaoduo smiled apologetically at Yin Qingyun and the others: "Can you please give me some guidance on this kid? By the way, he has just eaten. Please take him to eat some food first. Please."
After saying that, he patted Kaiyang on the shoulder and walked towards Old Man Wei.
Although Yin Qingyun and the others felt sorry, they also knew the importance. His master said that he had something to tell Miss Hong, so it must be something important. He stepped forward to pick up Kaiyang and walked towards the martial arts field in the mansion. go.
In front of the dining hall, only Wei Zizheng, his entourage, and the maid cleaning the dishes were left in an instant.
Looking in the direction where my father left, I was very confused. What important things would my father want to tell Miss Hong?
Unexpectedly, you didn’t even let yourself go together?
Forget it, let's go back to our yard and spend time with his wife. The person who needs him most right now is his wife.
Besides, Na Hong Xiaoduo followed Mr. Wei all the way to the study. At this time, the guard Fang Tian was guarding outside the study. He called out to his lord first, but in the end, his lord didn't even look at him.
The look on the adult's face made Fang Tian dare not say hello to Hong Xiaoduo. When Hong Xiaoduo turned around, he waved secretly.
"Uncle Qing, aren't you going to make a pot of tea?" Fang Tian asked the steward who was following him in a low voice.
Zhong Qing glanced at him and said: "If you need tea, you will naturally order it."
After saying that, he suddenly remembered something and turned around and asked: "Hey, I said you kid, in the past I've never talked so much. Tell me, is that little lady Hong really that good?
Look at you, two or three of you, you don't know, you think she is you. Where is the distinguished guest?”
"Uncle Qing, you don't understand our relationship." After saying that, he walked away, with no intention of telling the manager in detail.
Zhong Qing glared at the boy and was not angry. Now he was worried about what happened to the adults, and something was wrong with the young master. The young lady had not shown up since she came back for lunch.
The young master is back, and the young lady is also back. The atmosphere in the mansion should not be like this!
In the study, Mr. Wei asked Hong Xiaoduo to sit for a while, then he went to the desk, took out something from his sleeve pocket, folded it, and started tinkering with writing and drawing.
After a while, he stood up, gathered the things together, picked them up and handed them to Hong Xiaoduo: "It's what you want."
Hong Xiaoduo took a look and saw that it was a stack of small paper packages, each of which was individually marked.
“You got it so quickly?” Hong Xiaoduo said as he took the things over, ten copies.
"Well, do you need to prepare anything else for your secret method? Do you have any special requirements for the place where the spell is cast? My secret room is very safe, you can go down by yourself.
Hong Xiaoduo almost blurted out that there was no need to prepare anything, just a A quiet place that won't be disturbed would be fine.
But I always feel that this is not appropriate. Although it would be fine as long as it can produce convincing results, I have said that it is a secret method and that the process is the best. It looks a bit ritualistic and mysterious.
She thought so, but she didn't dare to be too arrogant. She asked someone to get some water to cleanse her hands, and asked for some light incense to burn. Then she picked up a cushion on the chair and placed it in the middle of the study. He sat down cross-legged with the ten small paper bags.
"I, don't you need to avoid it?" Wei Junpei asked.
"No need." After Hong Xiaoduo finished speaking, his palms faced each other, covering the paper bag in his hands, and he closed his eyes and entered the space.
Master Wei didn't know how long it would take for her to recover, so he simply sat on a chair nearby and waited.
He is actually quite emotional. He has lived to this age and been an official for many years, but he actually believes the words of the charlatan? I have never heard of such a secret technique, yet I actually believe it!
Is it because of the grandson? Or is it because of the person who said this?
The current Mr. Wei is actually quite contradictory. The conclusion she will come up with later is correct, which will prove that Tong'er in the mansion is fake. He is not afraid of conspiracies and tricks, but this is the result. It proves that finding Tong'er is ultimately a joy in vain.
The son is young, but can the old wife and daughter-in-law bear such a result...
He is also worried that the conclusion drawn by the girl in front of him is wrong. Then, does he really see it? I lost my sight, is this girl a charlatan...
