The Legitimate Younger Sister Insists on Marriage Exchange, Sending Me to Become a Marquis Wife – Chapter 252

第252章 可有得忙了

翠茗冷嗤:“你也听听你自个说的话,看你信不信。”

秦鸢道:“既然如此,你把盘点出来的单子都交给顾十六去,再者我突然想到件事,要让他去验证一二。”

红叶忙问:“什么事?”

秦鸢蛾眉微蹙,缓缓道:“我有些怀疑,死的那个兴许不是赵氏身边的嬷嬷。”

红叶和翠茗都吃了一惊。

“那死了的是谁?”

秦鸢叹道:“会不会是真正的杨婆子?”

红叶半晌没说话。

翠茗低头苦思。

“你们也觉得匪夷所思是不是?”

红叶重重点头。

秦鸢又道:“我听小红说,程哥儿和她亲密,就有些奇怪,每次去上房我都有仔细观察那两个孩子。程哥儿在上房待了那么久,也就和小红、容嬷嬷走的近些,可见不是个容易和人亲近的。”

红叶点头。

“紫荷好了之后,程哥儿也没和她多亲密,想来在风轩阁时两人就不亲近。可为何程哥儿却和一个看门值夜的婆子突然亲密起来了呢?”

翠茗道:“小姐是说,他们有可能之前就很亲密。”

“对。”

前世,秦鸢伴着林子奇从县令攀爬到丞相之位,用了不少年头,见过奇案大案无数。听了小红的话,就不免想的多了些。

翠茗继续道:“杨婆子总是值夜,又是个性情孤拐的孤寡人,和周围的人来往不多,再加上总是蓬头垢面,胡乱穿衣,就是换了个人,也不会太引人注意。”

秦鸢赞许道:“你说的不错,我曾经听说过个案子,有男子长的瘦弱俊俏,从小就做女孩子打扮,再加上女红针线活做的极好,又擅长梳妆打扮,就装作女子在闺中行走,害了不少女子,后来被人撞破,才闹了出来。”

红叶想了想,拍案道:“这样说来也不是不可能。”

秦鸢道:“能做到这个地步,赵氏所图非小。”

红叶惊出了一身冷汗,道:“我这就去寻十六。”

她三步并做两步赶到外书房,被守门的小厮拦住,冷脸道:“这是书房重地,你怎么能来?”

红叶道:“我都跟着夫人来过几次了,你难道不知道吗?如今我有要事寻顾十六,你帮我传个话,让他出来见我行不行?”

小厮道:“顾十六在和侯爷有要事,你不要在此高声喧哗。”

红叶:“……”

好在顾十六推了门出来,问:“怎么了?”

小厮连忙道:“十六哥,夫人身边的红叶姑娘说有急事寻你。”

顾十六将红叶带到廊下,问:“什么事?”

红叶将纸卷往他怀中一丢,道:“这是夫人带着我们盘点出来的条目,你拿去给侯爷瞧吧。”

见她脸色不佳,顾十六就笑道:“你这是生气了?”

“没有。”

红叶扭过身子。

顾十六道:“这里是外书房,有许多机密文书,一般不许旁人靠近。就是六爷要见侯爷,一样要等通传的。”

“别的到还罢了,就那看门的小厮,没个好脸子,也没个好口气。”

红叶忍不住告状。

顾十六哄道:“好,我待会说他,以后给咱们红叶姑娘说话,不能摆脸色。”

红叶笑道:“我可是那种小心眼的人?”

顾十六:“……”

顾侯爷突然咳嗽了几声。

顾十六便要走,红叶又道:“且等等,夫人有话要我带给你。”

“你说。”

顾十六不敢怠慢。

红叶便附耳小声道来。

顾十六呆立片刻,突然展颜一笑,道:“原来如此,夫人真是大才。”

说完便匆匆跑回了书房。

“瞧把这人急的,”红叶哼着小调儿赶回了梧桐苑,还有一大堆账本等着她呢。

大约半个时辰之后,顾侯爷也回了梧桐苑。

秦鸢正和人翻箱倒柜的找东西,顾侯爷一进来就问:“这是做什么?”

“不是说好要去看戚小哥和他老娘?嫁妆里有一些颜色暗沉的衣料,我这个年纪也用不着,收着会长虫,不如送给七小哥他老娘。还有就是以前配过些疏肝明目的药香,不知放到哪里去了。”

顾侯爷有感而发:“多亏你帮我打点这些,他们打了戚小哥,不少人嘴上不说,心里都很有些不平。后来见戚小哥娘俩被好好养着,这才好了,十六说还听见不少人在背后夸咱们。”

秦鸢笑道:“要是知道侯爷愿花千金给戚小哥的老娘治眼,又不知该怎么夸了。”

“那是她该得的,”顾侯爷道:“怪不得老人们都说要积德行善。咱们体贴戚小哥娘两不易,不过是顺手的事儿,能有什么耗费,人家就立了大功。”

顿了顿,道:“他家一家子男丁上了战场,只剩下戚小哥一个了。”

语气颇有些哀怜。

秦鸢听出他也想到了自个,佯做不知道:“侯爷还不快些誊了密折,赶紧送进宫去,我可是写了大半夜。”

“好,好,好,我立即就去。”

顾不上伤感,顾靖晖赶紧去了桌案旁坐下,认真誊写。

等他誊写完折子,又让人封好,送往未央宫,已到了午膳时分。

秦鸢看着丫鬟们摆了饭菜,正要邀他一起用膳,顾十六急匆匆赶来,两人嘀咕了几句,又一起出了梧桐苑,临走前只来得及让秦鸢自个用膳,又说戚小哥那边等着他一起去。

红叶奇道:“这是怎么了?”

秦鸢并不在意:“应当是十六得了什么要紧的消息,他不在,咱们正好一起用。”

三人坐在一起用膳,另外拨出两份,让红棉送去了外书房。

红棉回来道:“被看外书房的小厮拦在了外面,食盒已经放下了。”

等秦鸢午休起来,老夫人又派人来传了话,让她晚膳去上房用。

传话的是秋菊,红叶问:“可有什么由头?”

秋菊笑道:“六爷的新诗集老夫人看了直说好,一定要摆家宴,请侯爷和夫人一起去吃席,银子老夫人掏了。”

秦鸢打趣:“为何不等开府之后再摆,我们也能多吃点老夫人的体己钱,六爷做了这么大的事,老夫人一顿小厨房就解决了?我不依。”

秋菊哈哈笑道:“夫人别急,听老夫人说以后还要大摆的,六爷说后面要轮到他起诗社,老夫人说不如在侯府游园设宴,夫人可有得忙了。”
