Chapter 319 Unhurried(1/2)
After Qi Yue returned home from the palace, she naturally did not come out in that formal attire. She changed into a crimson embroidered gold cardigan that she wore every day, and took off her red hairpin jewelry. She came to see a doctor, not to visit the garden as a guest.
This kind of occasion is not suitable for jewelry.
"Okay, no need to send it away." She smiled at the housekeeper.
Whichever door he walked through, he didn't care about Qi Yue's arrival, but Ah Ru and Ah Hao looked shocked.
"Go well, madam." The butler bowed deeply.
Qi Yue nodded with a smile and walked down the steps. After taking only two steps, she noticed someone in front of the door looking over.
These are two men, one tall, one short, one thin and one fat.
The tall and thin one was wrapped in a big cloak, covering half of his face, but the short and fat one looked thin and tender, with two fake beards stuck to his mouth...
Why a fake beard?
Qi Yue chuckled.
This smile brought the two people who had been stunned back to their senses.
Watching the beauty walking down the steps and approaching.
The thin lips under the man's cloak were also slightly raised.
"Hey." Qi Yue raised her hand to cover her mouth slightly and whispered, "It fell."
The two of them looked down subconsciously. A gust of wind passed by, and the woman walked over.
The tall and thin man looked at the short and fat man, and the short and fat man also looked at him with some confusion. As expected, the beard stuck to his mouth had fallen off on one side and was hanging at the corner of his mouth, swaying with his breathing, which was very funny.
The tall and thin man also chuckled.
"Don't make trouble!" He raised his hand and pulled off his beard and said with a smile.
The short, fat man felt very aggrieved.
"That's not it. This is to avoid being seen by others." He muttered.
The tall and thin man stopped looking at him. He thought of something and went to see the woman, but he saw that he had already got into the carriage. The small and inconspicuous carriage quickly walked along the street.
This beauty…..
The short, fat man coughed lightly, reminding him of the purpose of coming.
The tall and thin man looked away and turned around. Since the door was open, they naturally had to enter through the door.
"Hey, what are you doing!" The concierge refused and immediately stopped.
"Why are you shouting!" The short, fat man didn't have a good temper, especially since he had never been scolded like this before. He glared and replied.
The concierge had already seen these two people dressed in strange and weird clothes. He was staring at Mrs. Qi with his eyes almost drooling. He had lost his temper for a long time. After hearing this, he turned around and slammed the door.
The two people outside the door were caught off guard and watched helplessly as the door closed.
A woman strutted out from the front door, but they were locked out.
"If you need anything, talk to me at the corner door." A voice came from the door.
On the contrary! The short and fat man was about to rush over, but was held back by the tall and thin man.
"What's the fuss with a concierge?" he said, walking towards the corner door with a bit of curiosity, "I haven't passed through the corner door yet..."
But it’s not easy to walk through the corner gate either.
"Where's the post?" the gatekeeper asked nonchalantly.
"Post?" The short and fat man was stunned for a moment, "We are here to visit Mr. Li Ge. What post do you want! Get out of the way!"
The corner door also slammed shut.
"..Where did the madman come from? He doesn't even look at where this place is..."
The servants laughed at the door.
"That's good now, no one will recognize me anymore." The short, fat man muttered.
"It's quite fun." The tall and thin man smiled. After thinking about it, he reached out and pulled a sign from the short and fat man's waist, "Take this and send it in."
"Stop looking and go back." The short, fat man said.
"No, I have to watch it." The tall, thin man said firmly.
It’s true that I didn’t come here on purpose, but just to secretly eat a bowl of wontons at the gate of the city. I mentioned Mr. Li Ge by the way. I heard from the secret guard that Mr. Li Ge was well, so I got curious and came over to see what was rare.
It's not necessary, just let him go in and see enough.
The short, fat man had no choice but to call the door again with his badge.
Mr. Li had already led his people out of the house, because the imperial doctors had prescribed medicine again and he was still suffering. Li Tong's father took the initiative to ask Li Tong to stay and take care of him. This made the other brothers very dissatisfied. He would give medicine after this attitude.
It seems like you've got it covered, but there's nothing you can do about it.
The concierge came running over holding a waist badge.
"Master, master, someone is here to visit," they shouted.
Mr. Li was a little unhappy. Who is so short-sighted? He didn't even look at the time, so he came over just in time for dinner to see people.
He reached out and took the waistband, which was an ivory waistband with a double-sided embossed cloud pattern.
The ceremonial eunuch...
Mr. Li's hands shook slightly.
"It's someone from the palace," he said.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, but it didn't matter immediately. The emperor was concerned about Ge Lao's condition, so it was normal for the eunuch to ask.
"Prepare more money." Mr. Li said again.
The hard work of these eunuchs cannot be taken lightly.
He straightened his clothes and went out to pick her up in person.
Cai Chong watched the corner door open and couldn't help but cursed in his heart.
Why don't you open the front door?
He wouldn't have cared about it like this before, but the comparison with that woman just now made him feel very uncomfortable.
Why! After all, I am the number one eunuch of the Bureau of Ceremony, how can I be inferior to a woman?
While I was thinking about it, Mr. Li led someone to pick it up.
"Oh, why are you here in person, Eunuch Cai...ah..." Mr. Li squinted his eyes and took it over in a hurry. Before he could finish his words, he took a deep breath and then his legs went weak.
Cai Chong had good eyesight and quickly stepped forward to help him.
"Don't make any noise." He whispered.
Mr. Li stood up straight with his help, his body trembling slightly as he looked at the tall and thin man walking over step by step.
Under the corner lamp of the concierge, I saw that he had lifted up his cloak a little, revealing half of his face, which could be recognized at a glance by those who were familiar with him.
Mr. Li just felt that his breath was not smooth and his mind was confused.
"Come on, let's go in and take a look." Cai Chong said with a smile, pushing Mr. Li to give in.
Although the others noticed something strange about Mr. Li, they couldn't guess why, so they laughed and hugged Cai Zhong in.
Cai Chong waited for the tall and thin man to leave before he took a step forward.
The people following noticed it and couldn't help but bite their ears with the people next to them.
"Who is that person?" he asked in a low voice.
"Eunuch Cai's bodyguard, right?" another person guessed.
"Guards?" The first person frowned and pointed, "Whose guards are more impressive than the master?"
Everyone looked over and saw Cai Zhong holding Mr. Li on his arm. He seemed to be walking steadily, but in fact he was one step slower than the tall and thin man.
Mr. Li felt his legs were weak and wanted to kneel down, but Cai Zhong helped him.
"I, I, didn't prepare anything..." he stammered.
While talking, they had already arrived in front of Mr. Li Ge's house.
"What are you preparing for? Let everyone else step aside." Cai Zhong said in a low voice.
Mr. Li turned around in response.
"Go back, everyone, go back." He said tremblingly.
The brothers and grandchildren who came over were all stunned for a moment, but they didn't dare to say anything. Originally, he was the boss, and other than Mr. Li Ge, he had the final say in the family. Who didn't have the responsibility to give birth to the boss?
Everyone dispersed, Mr. Li breathed a sigh of relief and watched the man in front of him step into the house.
"Oh no!" He suddenly remembered that there was another person in the house...
"Is that okay?" Cai Zhong shook him, "Follow me and give me your good tea."
"I have to serve..." Mr. Li said hurriedly.
To be continued...
