Chapter 259 settled

Eleven Niang was talking to Luo Da Nai.

What should we do? The Wang family is going to open an ancestral hall tomorrow. Luo Da Nai was so anxious that all the Marquis's thoughts were wasted.

Lu Yun gently brought in the brown sugar water mixed with motherwort.

Luo Da Nai smelled a familiar smell and her expression paused: You

Eleven Niang took the small blue and white porcelain bowl.

The reddish-brown soup was steaming, and she took a cautious sip: I was feeling uncomfortable and looked very calm.

Luo Da Nai couldn't help but worry: Who in your house will serve the Marquis?

Eleven Niang has no habit of talking to others. Continued from the preface: Is there no possibility of changing it?

Luo Da Nai didn't want to talk much when she saw Eleven Niang, and it was hard to ask further questions.

In fact, the people of the Luo family have been negotiating with the people of the Wang family in the past few days. As a result, the Wang family decided to adopt a son in the name of the Duke. It may be that they are afraid that the people of the Luo family will not work hard on the matter of inheriting the title if they find out.

They had been hiding this from the Luo family. If it hadn't been for a woman sent by Eleven Niang to have a seven-year-old boy stay in Mrs. Wang's house for several days in a row and become suspicious, the Luo family would have been hiding it until now.

I don’t know what the Wang family is planning.

It has been decided. She felt a little resentful when she thought about it. Your eldest brother is still arguing with them in the Wang family. You asked me to come and tell you specifically to see if you have any good ideas.

Luo Zhenxing is a serious maternal uncle. If even he can't do anything, what can Eleven Niang do? Luo Da Nai said it euphemistically, but she actually wanted Eleven Niang to ask Xu Lingyi to come forward and see if anything can be done.

Turnaround.

Thinking of Luo Da Nai coming over overnight, Eleven Niang asked Lu Yun to invite Xu Lingyi, and explained to Luo Da Nai: The previous batch of stewards were all people when the old Marquis was still alive. Now they are old and have low energy.

Please resign to the Marquis. The Marquis is busy with this matter.

There is really no way out. Luo Da Nai looked shocked when she heard this: Your eldest brother also knows that this is a matter of the Wang family. As a family member of the family, the Luo family has no right to intervene, not to mention that the Marquis is only a brother-in-law. Otherwise,

, the Marquis will not leave the matter of persuading the Wang family to us, and will take the Chengjue matter on himself. It is really that the Marquis does not have this position.

Eleven Niang interrupted Luo Da Nai: One family does not talk about two families. Mr. Hou is well-informed, and he might be able to come up with some good ideas. Instead, he comforted Luo Da Nai.

Luo Da Nai was even more ashamed.

Xu Lingyi is back.

Eleven Niang hurriedly explained Luo Da Nai’s purpose of coming.

Xu Lingyi frowned: No wonder he could raise someone like Wang Lang.

Luo Da Nai blushed after hearing this. She was afraid that Eleven Niang would be too worried, so she murmured: It's all because we didn't handle this matter well. Otherwise, Mr. Hou wouldn't have to be in such a difficult situation.

What's the use of talking about this now? What's important is whether it can solve the problem at hand.

Eleven Niang coughed lightly and said: I used to read those novels, and they all said that if the county magistrate was not sure when judging a case, he would ask the master to help him look for old case files that had been tried before, and see if he could find similar files.

She looked at Xu Lingyi, but we didn't understand this, and we didn't know if it was true.

Xu Lingyi said nothing and walked around the room with his hands behind his back.

Luo Da Nai didn't dare to disturb her and looked at Xu Lingyi quietly and breathlessly.

Eleven Niang made another cup of tea for Nai Luo and whispered: Sister-in-law, don't worry, you can always think of a way.

Luo Da Nai took the tea cup and nodded slightly, and Xu Lingyi, who had been pacing, stopped.

How old is that kid?

Luo Da Nai hurriedly put down the teacup: She is seven years old.

What's your temperament like?

Luo Da Nai smiled bitterly. If Eleven Niang's people hadn't shown up, how would they have known, let alone observed the child's character. They could only vaguely say: He looks fair and clean, and he seems to be a well-behaved and smart child.

Was it the idea of ​​the Duke, Mrs. Wang, or those relatives?

It should be the meaning of those relatives. Luo Da Nai is not sure. The Duke of Guo has been shutting himself in the study, Mrs. Wang is ill in bed, Mrs. Jiang is served by Yuan Baozhu's family and returns to Jiang's family. Grandma Ten Gu

Even the relatives of the Wang family don't know who this child is. Naturally, those relatives selected this child on their own.

Not to mention Xu Lingyi, even Eleven Niang sighed secretly in her heart after hearing this.

Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. They don't even know these basic things, so it's no wonder they were beaten passively.

Luo Da Nai also knew that this matter was not handled properly, so she lowered her head and said: The Duke of Guo originally promised your eldest brother, who knew

Xu Lingyi looked at the self-ringing bell in the east room and asked Luo Da Nai: Now that the curfew is here, my uncle and grandma will rest here for the night. I'll go and take a look at Mao Guo Gong's Mansion.

Luo Da Nai was very surprised when she heard this, and stood up with gratitude on her face: How can you have the nerve to let Mr. Hou run around like this? Let me go over and have a look, and said, I have been accompanying Grandma Shi Gu these days.

Sister-in-law and sister-in-law are always inseparable when they meet, and it is common for them to hold long conversations by candlelight

Xu Lingyi glanced at Eleven Niang.

She was wearing a homely white silk coat, with a plain face, a slightly tired look on her brows, but a very soft expression. She was telling Da Nai Luo in a low voice: Be careful on the road. The women I sent are all Xu

The old people at home know the rules and are attentive. If you have anything to do, just call them. Don’t tire yourself.

They were all about caring about others, not a word about themselves.

Xu Lingyi couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Eleven Niang sent them to the gate of the courtyard.

Two figures flashed out of the east corner gate: Mr. Hou

Looking through the red lanterns under the corridor, they turned out to be Qiao Lianfang and Xiu Citron.

Xu Lingyi was stunned: Why are you here at this time?

Qiao Lianfang and Xiu Trin hurried to the main courtyard, and after asking the woman guarding the door, they found out that Xu Lingyi had not come back yet. It was windy at night, and Xiu Trin was afraid that Qiao Lianfang would catch the cold, so he persuaded her to go back and waited at the corner gate. He saw

Xu Lingyi returned to the yard and hurriedly went to report to Qiao Lianfang. Qiao Lianfang rushed over and heard that Big Nai Luo was here. She looked at the getting late and thought that Nai Luo wouldn't be able to stay for long, so she waited at the east corner gate.

After a while, who knew, not only did Da Nai Luo leave, but Xu Lingyi also went out.

She didn't care much and walked out.

The Marquis bent her knees to salute Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi hurriedly took her: you are pregnant with twins, so there is no need for these things.

Qiao Lianfang's somewhat anxious mood immediately calmed down.

She smiled and said: It's so late, Lord Marquis, are you ready to go out?

Xu Lingyi nodded: I'm getting ready to go out. What can I do for you?

Qiao Lianfang looked at Luo Da Nai and hesitated to speak.

Luo Da Nai took a few steps forward after looking at it: I was sitting in the car, and the Marquis was riding a horse, so I took a step forward.

After hearing this, Xu Lingyi called Eleven Niang over and said to Qiao Lianfang: If you have anything to do, tell Madam directly. I have to go out now. He also told Eleven Niang, look at what happened to Aunt Qiao. If you are in trouble, just tell her.

Tell Mr. Bai.

Luo Da Nai, who had not gone far, heard clearly.

She couldn't help but nodded secretly.

The fact that the Marquis can entrust his pregnant concubine to the Eleventh Niang shows his trust in the Eleventh Niang. No wonder the Eleventh Niang is not worried that the Marquis will have no one to serve him. After all, the purpose of arranging people to serve the Marquis is also to help the Marquis.

heart to keep.

After hearing this, Eleven Niang responded hurriedly: I know it.

Xu Lingyi nodded towards Qiao Lianfang and left the inner courtyard with his entourage and Luo Da Nai.

For a while, the courtyard gate was deserted.

Qiao Lianfang looked at Xu Lingyi's back and couldn't help biting her lips.

Eleven Niang politely invited her to sit in the hall: Aunt Qiao is a twin, if you have anything to do, just tell me. She also said, Mr. Marquis also said that if I can't do it, please do it.

Manager Bai can also help you do it.

No need. Qiao Lianfang refused, hesitating and saying, it’s no big deal.

Xiu Citron looked anxious.

If Eleven Niang becomes suspicious and tries to stop her, it will be even more difficult for her to see the Marquis in the future.

She hurriedly interjected: Actually, my aunt came to see Madam. She never expected to meet the Marquis, so she came forward and said hello. As she said that, she pulled the corner of Qiao Lianfang's clothes.

Qiao Lianfang also understood in her heart that she was somewhat unwilling to do so, and there was some hesitation on her face.

Xiu Citron simply told Qiao Lianfang: Aunt Qiao wanted to meet Mrs. Qiao. She felt a little embarrassed and was hesitating.

Anyway, the Marquis also said that if Eleven Niang can’t do it, Manager Bai will help her do it. This is simply a trivial matter for Eleven Niang.

Who knew that Eleven Niang did not agree as happily as usual, but said: Aunt Qiao is not what she used to be. I don’t know if I can see guests. Otherwise, I will ask the two mothers.

The two mothers she mentioned were Mama Tian and Mama Wan who were sent by Mrs. Tai to take care of her.

After hearing this, Qiao Lianfang thought for a moment, smiled and nodded, saying: "Then let's wait until Madam asks the two mothers, then lead Xiu Citron back to the house."
