Powerful ministers are husbands

"Miss, this jade bracelet Madam gave you is really beautiful. It is so dark in the night, but it is so radiant. It sets off your temperament even more." The maid Cuixin seemed to have honey in her mouth. Stop flattering Ruyi.

Ru Yi glanced at her, and covered the jade bracelet with her sleeve, "Okay, don't talk about it, we have to be restrained and humble in the mansion, you know?"

Cui Xin nodded vigorously, and supported her young lady's arm into the courtyard.

Jinxiu turned from behind the pillar, curled her lips towards the side courtyard, and trotted back to the small study, "Master, the news brought by Guard Zhang." She handed the small note tightly clutched in her hand to Pang Miao.

Pang Miao quickly took it, unfolded it, and found that there was only one word "no" written on it.

"It seems that they haven't changed anything these days, and the rest of the matter will be left to Lord Hou to decide."

Jinxiu was a little nervous, "Master, could they have discussed it long ago, so they haven't contacted each other these days... Or did something go wrong after meeting the new master?"

"We can only gamble, and doing so will only increase the chance of winning the bet." Pang Miao said while burning the note, "Master Hou has been an official for so many years, and he also has his own judgment ability. We don't need to worry about things anymore, let's do our best before making connections."

Jinxiu nodded, and looked outside again through the crack of the window, her face full of expectation and anxiety, "The time to close the city gate is almost here, why hasn't anyone come yet?"

Pang Miao glanced at her, handed the cakes on the table in front of him, and asked thoughtfully, "Why do I think you're not just excited about having the chance to meet Lord Hou?"

"Is——? No?" Jinxiu blinked blankly, picked up a piece of glutinous horseshoe cake and stuffed it into her mouth, "Well, young master, the horseshoe cake made by the new pastry chef is really delicious, you Don't you have no appetite for dinner? Eat quickly, or I'll eat it all."

Pang Miao stuffed the plate into Jinxiu's hands, "Here, I'll give you all to eat." He shook his head helplessly and sighed, since Jinxiu entered the gate of Cao's house, something was wrong with Jinxiu.

Jinxiu hugged a plate of pastries, laughing so hard that she could hardly see her eyes.

"Okay, don't just remember to eat." Pang Miao handed the purse he had prepared to Jinxiu, "You will hand it over to Zhang Mu in a while, thank him for me, and let him have a good rest for the next few days. Thank you in person."

Time passed bit by bit, the moonlight became brighter, Xia Chong was still tirelessly "squeaking", but there was no footsteps, and no one knocked on the gate of Tingsongyuan.

Jinxiu hugged the empty plate, sat on the ground, and dozed off against the soft couch.

When Pang Miao put down the book in his hand for the second time and glanced out of the window, it seemed as if he had waited for a hundred years for such a long time. Finally, there was a knock on the door, accompanied by the voice of Madam Cao and his mother.

"Jinxiu, hurry up and open the door." Pang Miao lightly pushed Jinxiu's shoulder a few times.

Jinxiu looked at the young master with sleepy eyes, and when she heard the knock on the door, she immediately understood what was going on, and ran out with the plate in her arms.

Pang Miao took out the letter from Lao Ding from the vase at the top of the shelf, and as soon as he turned around, Jinxiu ran back to the small study like a gust of wind, holding a letter high.

"Grandpa's family letter!"

Pang Miao opened the envelope and stuffed Lao Ding's envelope into it, and Jin Xiu stared at it with wide eyes.

"Don't you read what uncle wrote?"

Pang Miao's hands paused, and he asked back, "Are you so curious?"

Jinxiu leaned closer to look at the young master's expression, and then asked: "Young master, aren't you curious?"

"What's so curious." Pang Miao gripped the envelope tightly, wondering why he didn't want to open it to see what Cao Lv had written, "It's important to get down to business now."

"Oh." Jinxiu's complexion suddenly became serious, and she followed closely behind Pang Miao, clutching her sleeves.

A middle-aged woman sent by the main courtyard was sitting on the steps, looking around boredly, while planning to wait for Mrs. Ba Shao to rest, and secretly go back to the room to eat, drink and rest for a while, and then come back when the sky is about to dawn.Suddenly there was the sound of the door opening behind her, she turned her head curiously, and saw Mrs. Ba Shao standing in front of her condescendingly, with a serious and frightening expression, she immediately jumped up.

"Madam Eighth Young Master, this is..." She hesitated and asked.

Jinxiu straightened her back and said in a serious manner: "The Eighth Young Master has included an important document in the letter to the Young Madam, which is for the Master. The Young Madam is afraid of delaying things, so now I need to hand over the document to the Master."

As soon as Madam Eighth Young Madam was leaving Tingsong Courtyard, the woman waved her hands again and again, "Madam ordered the servants to take good care of the Young Madam, why not let the servants take care of it for you, how can you let the young Madam work hard?"

Not to be outdone, Jin Xiu glared at her fiercely, "Do you know how important this document is? Otherwise, it would be impossible for Young Madam to bother the master at such a late hour."

"This, this..." The woman couldn't refute for a long time, but she just blocked the door and refused to give in.

Jinxiu took a step forward, stood on the steps two steps higher, raised her voice and said, "This matter is of great importance, and we slaves cannot intervene. If something goes wrong, can you afford it? You are stuck here You refused to give way for a long time and delayed the opportunity. Can you afford to pay for your life? Don't worry, our young lady is sensible and considerate of the servants. If the lady blames you for not serving well, the young lady will speak for you. Think about it Think, how much face do you have?"

The woman raised her eyes and quickly glanced at Mrs. Ba Shao, and she tugged her sleeves with her fingers for a long time, thinking that as a lowly servant, if she really missed a major event, she would not be able to pay for her life. Li certainly can't get along.For the sake of the future, the woman finally pushed aside.

Pang Miao gave Jinxiu an approving look, and the master and servant went to the main courtyard immediately.

When Mrs. Cao was happy to receive the letter of safety from her own son, she suddenly heard the news that "Mrs. Eighth Younger Madam is here", and her face was slightly unhappy. The Cao family sisters exchanged glances, knowing that someone was coming to "send her to death". Naturally, there are good shows to watch.

"Let her go back, it's better to go to bed early in the evening." Mrs. Cao told her mother impatiently.

Mother Yu was about to go out to answer, when Cao Zheng waved his hand, "Lv'er won the battle outside, everyone is very happy, let his wife come in."

Mrs. Cao had no choice but to wink at her mother.

Soon, Pang Miao stepped into the threshold with Jinxiu, and soon felt several malicious eyes.

"Father, mother." After Pang Miao saluted decently, he turned his gaze to Cao Zheng, "My husband has left an important document with me, so I sent it to you."

Cao Zheng stroked his beard and asked in a low voice, "Why did you leave something in that letter of yours?"

"Probably because the battle is busy, I accidentally made a mistake." Pang Miao replied without changing his expression.

"Bring it here and show it to me."

Pang Miao handed over the letter with both hands, Cao Zheng took out the letter and glanced at it, his eyes froze slightly, and he looked up at Pang Miao.

Pang Miao only nodded slightly.

Cao Zheng immediately put away the letter, got up and said to everyone present: "The time is running out, you all go back and rest. Eighth daughter-in-law, come with me to the study, I have something to ask you."

Mrs. Cao and the Cao sisters looked at each other, feeling strange, but they didn't dare to ask more about what Cao Zheng said, so they had to leave each other full of disappointment and speculation.

Pang Miao left Jinxiu behind and followed Cao Zheng to the study next door.

"What's going on here? Why did you get involved with Yan Wang's people?" Cao Zheng asked sternly, sitting behind the desk, he was like a majestic mountain, with an imposing manner.

Pang Miao looked calm, and told Cao Zheng in detail what had happened in the past few days, "...in the past few days, Mr. Wen was afraid that something unexpected would be unfavorable to father, so he decided without authorization and asked the guards to monitor the two of them. People, wait until it is confirmed that there is no abnormality for the time being, and then dare to take the opportunity of the husband to send home the letter to tell the matter to father. Wen Jun caused trouble, and used the guards of the house without authorization, please punish him."

At the end, he lowered his head slightly, showing the appearance of admitting his mistake with a correct attitude.

Cao Zheng withdrew his menacing eyes from Pang Miao, and opened the letter written by Lao Ding again, as if he was reading it again, but actually he was thinking secretly.

Although it provoked people who didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse, and disregarded the family rules to intervene in this matter, but judging from the previous incident of Cao Lv being framed for killing Xue Weikai, the indifference and calmness of the old eighth daughter-in-law is impressive. No matter what happens in the end, A cautious attitude is also beneficial and harmless.

With such a wife, Cao Lv felt at ease.

"I will handle this matter later, so you don't have to worry about it anymore. As for the punishment, I just hope that you will not interfere in such matters in the future. If you have any questions, tell me or Cao Lv immediately, and don't act rashly again."

"Yes, Mr. Wen will keep it in mind." Pang Miao replied obediently.

Cao Zheng returned Cao Lv's family letter to Pang Miao, "You can take this back. By the way, tomorrow I will tell your mother that copying the family rules should be done in moderation, and if you stay in Tingsongyuan, you will get sick from boredom. "

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Wen, please leave." Pang Miao saluted again and exited the study, feeling a big stone in his heart fall half.

I hope that this time, the king of Yan will be able to repay the debt with blood, so that his wish will be fulfilled, and he can live in peace of mind.

Full of expectations, Pang Miao let out a long breath after returning to Tingsongyuan, and found that the letter paper in his hand was about to be crumbled.

Jinxiu leaned over resolutely, "Young master, are you really not curious about what uncle said?"

"I'm not curious, but... it was sent back from thousands of miles away, let's take a look." Pang Miao took out the crumpled letter paper, only to see that Cao Lv's correct handwriting was a little disfigured under his ravages.

"Mr. Wen loves his wife, and seeing her is like seeing her. After a few months, everything will be safe and smooth. I only hope that Mrs. Wen will be well. I will return to the imperial capital in a few days, and then I will be with Mr. Wen..."

"And what?" Jinxiu tried her best to distinguish the blurred handwriting, but unfortunately, Pang Miao's hand sweat soaked the letter paper, and after kneading it again, it was already tattered and unrecognizable.She was a little dejected, but soon her eyes lit up, and she cheered, "It must be Enenaiai... huh!"

"Great General Zuowei, it's just so old-fashioned to write a family letter. I see how excited you are." Pang Miao withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, folded the letter and stuffed it back into the envelope.

Jinxiu covered her head with tears in her eyes, "It's obvious that I'm very sincere..."

Noticing the young master's eyes, she decided to stop talking.
