第178章 明日(一更)
慕容晔眉头微不可查地皱了下,却不好发作。

沈延川今日主动相邀,请他来定北侯府一坐,结果来了之后,就一直在这下棋。

他棋力不敌沈延川,但这一盘棋仍然下了一整个下午。

有好几次,沈延川都能直接将他的路子堵死,可他偏没有如此。

慕容晔实在是按捺不住了,将手中棋子放下,说道:“世子有什么话,还请直说吧!”

沈延川抬眸。

慕容晔道:“是不是沁阳郡主又来告了状?”

提起这一茬,慕容晔语气生硬冷淡,还带着几分不耐。

“世子聪慧,应当知道强扭的瓜不甜,我与沁阳郡主毫无可能,还请世子转告,让她别再在我身上浪费时间了。”

沁阳郡主对他有意,是人尽皆知的秘密。

换做旁人,或许会觉得十分荣光,可慕容晔心头却只有厌烦。

他根本不喜欢沁阳郡主,而且因为她屡次针对欺负叶诗娴,他心中对她已是非常反感。

沈延川唇角微挑。

“慕容公子多虑了,沁阳这两日一心扑在踏雪身上,倒是并未曾提及你来。”

“什么?”

慕容晔一愣,反应过来之后,顿觉难堪。

这话听着,倒是他自作多情了!?
沈延川似乎也没了兴致,淡道:“看来慕容公子今日确实兴致不高,既然如此,我便不留你了。这局棋,不下也罢。”

慕容晔心头一跳,这才惊觉自己刚才的态度有所冒犯。

“世子,我不是那个意思,我只是……”

沈延川随手将棋子扔回棋罐。

“明日便是中秋宫宴,慕容公子应该还有不少准备要做。云成,送客。”

……

慕容晔满腹憋屈地走了。

待他离开,连舟看了眼棋盘,“主子,叶二小姐刚才从韩家看完诊出来了。”

沈延川轻轻颔首。

连舟又道:“看叶二小姐的气色,比之前好了些,不过今天先是去了十几家铺子查账,又去了韩家救人,好一番折腾,估计得好好休养一阵才行了。”

沈延川思虑片刻:“那些掌柜都走了?”

“是。他们都是叶恒的人,即便叶二小姐不闹,他们也不会留太久的。”

连舟心头有些感慨。

“只是这样一来,估计叶二小姐接下来有的忙了。”

店铺虽然要回来了,却都只剩下个空壳子,叶初棠分身乏术,不久之前又受了伤,实在是不好应付。

想想也知道她现在必定十分为难。

沈延川修长的手指在桌上轻轻点了点,片刻后忽然问道:“她之前盘下的那家店,现在如何了?”

连舟一愣。

“好像重新整修了一遍,快完工了。”

谁也不知道叶初棠究竟打算做什么。

沈延川顿了顿,道:“她自有主意,且随她便是。”

……

叶初棠带着阿言阿风和小五回了家。

苏佩儿已经脱离了危险,有小丫鬟照顾着,没什么问题。

至于韩尧……那毒量虽然不多,但他体质一般,全靠叶初棠帮他吊着一口气。

他现在还不能死。

叶初棠仰头,看了眼渐渐黑沉的天色,轻声。

“明天就是中秋了。”

叶雲风想起先前叶恒被带走的画面,就觉得神清气爽。

“那边现在已经乱成一锅粥了吧?这次可要过一个终身难忘的中秋节了!要我说叶恒这也是罪有应得!韩桐怎么说和他也是颇有交情,一朝落难,他非但不帮,还要给韩桐唯一的儿子下毒,他不被收拾谁被收拾?”

叶初棠黛眉微挑。

“谁说是他给韩尧下的毒?”

叶雲风顿时愣住:“阿姐此话何意?”

叶璟言拍拍他的肩:“他再想堵住韩尧的嘴,也不可能在今天下这样的死手。你想想,他今天带着那么多人大张旗鼓去了韩家,要是韩尧死了,第一个被怀疑的,肯定是他。”

“这倒是。”叶雲风很快转过弯来,但还是没能猜透,“那韩尧体内的毒,到底是怎么回事儿?阿姐不是说,他那毒还挺厉害的吗?”

叶初棠坐下,给自己倒了杯茶,不紧不慢道:“是挺毒的,想一并将韩尧和叶恒一起解决了。”

叶雲风惊了一下。

叶璟言却似乎也早已想到这种可能,脸上并无震惊之色,思虑片刻后,问道:“那阿姐可是已经猜到,究竟是谁做的了?”

叶初棠眼睛弯了弯,眼眸乌黑清润。

“我猜不猜得到不重要,重要的是,叶恒要能猜到。”

Heir of a traditional medical family, Ye Chutang rolled through life for a lifetime, only to unexpectedly die just as she was about to inherit. Reborn, she only wanted to be a slacker and live a carefree life. Unexpectedly, at the beginning, she suffered a critical blow: her parents and eldest brother were assassinated, leaving her with three younger siblings. The third brother was seriously injured, the fourth brother was in a coma, and there was also a baby crying for milk. She weighed the cold steamed bun in her hand, looked despairingly at the sky, and thought that managing three at once was worse than starting over. The little baby tugged at her pant leg. "Hungry." Ye Chutang: "..." Get up and work! ...Ye Chutang’s plan was perfect; once she raised the children, she could retire and enjoy her later years. Yet, a man had different intentions. "Miss Ye, after all these years, shouldn't there be an explanation?" Ye Chutang: "6." You used to linger at my doorstep and now it’s my fault? ... The Ye family was impressive: Ye Sanlang was the top scholar of the current dynasty, Ye Si-lang had made great military achievements in the northwest, and Ye Wu girl had a commercial empire rivaling the rich and powerful. Only Ye Er-girl was busy raising her younger siblings, unknowingly aging and facing difficulties in marriage. Until one day, the powerful Duke of Dingbei, Shen Yanchaun, arrived with a bridal procession ten miles long to welcome her. Ye Chutang remained silent for a long time. "This time, you take care of the kids."
