Chapter 333: Determination

After seeing this, Mrs. Tai returned the note to Xu Lingyi, looked at Eleven Niang and said: Since you all know what to do, just think about it.

Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang responded with a smile. They chatted with the wife for a few words. Seeing that it was getting late, they stood up and left.

The moonlight outside the door is bright and clear, and the rich fragrance of flowers floats in the air, which is passionate and unrestrained and warms the heart.

Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang walked slowly along the path of the garden. From time to time, they heard the chirping of summer insects. They felt quiet and peaceful in their hearts. Although they both felt that they had a lot to say, they didn't want to break it.

The tranquility at this moment, I chose silence invariably. The atmosphere was not dull, but added a bit of tranquility.

Enter the garden gate and walk along the corridor. To the north is Banyue Pan and to the east is Diao Lun Waterside Pavilion.

At the T-junction, Xu Lingyi paused, and both of them showed some hesitation.

He only took a few followers with him and rode all the way back to Yanjing. Because he drove all night, he broke several horses. However, the horses at the post station were not as good as the horses he brought, so when he saw a few strong horses pulling a carriage, it was very difficult.

When the gorgeous carriage with colorful glazed canopies and green curtains and the cart with boxes and cages were walking slowly on the road like a spring outing, he suddenly had an idea for the carriage. He immediately ordered his entourage to take hundreds of taels of silver notes to buy it. Unexpectedly, the other party was very difficult to talk to, not only

He was sarcastic and ridiculed, and even took out a bag of golden beans, claiming to buy his mount.

He was never afraid of people being in front of him.

If you leave the money behind, you will have to unhorse and leave.

The opponent's guard stepped forward to stop him, but of course he was no match for his entourage. He beat the opponent to a pulp with three strikes, five divided by two, and the coachman driving the horse was so frightened that he whipped up his whip and was about to run away, and because his entourage was unbridling the horse, the carriage overturned.

He said that he also made Qiniang's feet weak and kept them on the carriage for four or five days before they were ready.

For this reason, it is not difficult to understand why Qiniang wants to embarrass him.

Therefore, he did not ask Qiniang if she would spend the night at Fishing Waterside Pavilion.

He has his own self-esteem.

Qiniang didn't want to avoid going to Banyue Pan just because she spent the night at Fishing Water Pavilion. She stayed at Diao Lun Water Pavilion when she was in Liufangwu.

But he was a little reluctant to let go of this gentle atmosphere that made him feel like a spring breeze.

If Xu Lingyi wanted to go back to Diao Lun Shui Pavilion with her, he would naturally walk side by side with her. But he stayed here now, naturally because he wanted to go back to Banyuepan.

Eleven Niang thought.

Is it because he has something to go back to Banyuepan to deal with, or is he worried that Qiniang will still be resting at Fishing Waterside Pavilion tonight?

Asking her to tell Xu Lingyi that Qiniang was staying at Liufangwu tonight was a naked invitation. Even if she lived for two lifetimes, she would not be able to say it.

She hesitated for a long time, and finally took a few steps forward and stood at the intersection heading north.

How did the Marquis go to Zhangqiu?

Under the starlight, her eyes flickered, like stars in the sky, uncertain in brightness and darkness.

Xu Lingyi looked at Eleven Niang in surprise, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows slowly widening.

The land has not been bought, he whispered, and went up the corridor to Banyuepan. A lot of things happened. I don’t know how to tell you at the moment.

Eleven Niang lowered her head and looked at the bluestones paved on the corridor: I saw that Mr. Hou came back so quickly, so I guessed that things were either going smoothly or that there were difficulties. Listening to your tone when you left, I felt that things would not be that simple.

Not only is it not simple, Xu Lingyi said, I was a little puzzled at the time, how could I let it out that I wanted to sell the land, but the price was so high that ordinary people didn't dare to care. It was clearly a trap set up against our family.

Then you still go

Now that I'm on the radar, I won't get involved this time. There will be another time. It's better to solve it once and for all. Xu Lingyi said calmly, it's a good thing I went. It turns out that someone wants to intervene in overseas trade and uses those hundreds of acres of land to cast stones and ask for directions. They want me to follow

Say hello to Quanzhou Shipping Department. I am now dismissed from office and at home, so it’s better to stay less involved in this kind of thing. Naturally, I can’t take that field.

The two of them went to Banyuepan while talking.

Eleven Niang stood up gently.

Did you get it right? Xu Lingyi's vague voice suddenly came from behind.

Unexpectedly, it woke him up.

Well, Eleven Niang has resumed her original range of movements and is getting dressed rustlingly. Mr. Hou, please sleep for a while.

Anyway, I'm at home and don't have to go to court. It's just that it's not easy to mention this in front of him.

Xu Lingyi sat up, picked up the white silk clothes that had been thrown on the corner of the bed and were rubbed like pickled vegetables, and put it on: Are you going to Huguo Temple with Qi Aunt today? He thought of Qi Niang's canopy car and her temper,

Send someone to tell the host that the mountain gate will be closed by then.

Eleven Niang's face turned red when she looked at his undergarment: I'll help Mr. Hou get another one. Then she turned around and opened the high black cabinet on the side, found a neatly ironed undergarment and handed it to Xu Lingyi. The seventh sister wanted

Go to Huguo Temple to eat rice sausage. I'm afraid it won't be of any use if the gate is closed.

Xu Lingyi was a little stunned, and then asked after a while: Is she usually like this at home?

Eleven Niang said tactfully: Seventh Sister’s temperament is a bit lively.

Xu Lingyi nodded, stopped talking about the matter, and told her: In that case, bring more guards.

The eleventh mother responded and asked the little maid to come in to help with the grooming. She and Xu Lingyi had breakfast together before returning to Diaolun Water Pavilion.

Song's mother saw her face full of smiles.

Miss Mu Fu from Qi Aunt came early in the morning to ask when we were going to leave.

Eleven Niang's answer was different from what was asked: Go and call Hu Hui in.

Song's mother didn't know why, but she still responded respectfully and left.

Eleven Niang pulled out a red ribbon from her lapel with an oval jade sign hanging on it.

Xu Lingyi hung it for her last night. She was a little embarrassed at the time and didn't look carefully. Only then did she realize that it was a Hetian jade with three sheep carved on it.

I am born under the sign of Sheep.

Eleven Niang took the jade sign and touched it carefully.

Is it a birthday present?

But Xu Lingyi didn't say anything when he hung it up for her. And he did it while she was tired. If the bed hadn't been cold and hard for her, she wasn't used to it and was very sleepy, so she wouldn't have noticed it yet.

While thinking about it, Amber lifted the curtain and walked in: Madam, what are your orders?

Eleven Niang hesitated for a moment and said: Forget it, I originally planned to ask you to help me make a knot, so I'll do it myself. Just go and ask the little maid to come in and change clothes. Then she hung the jade plaque around her neck again.

.

Luozi is Master Jian's specialty, and Eleven Niang has learned her true heritage. Not to mention them, even the masters in Lingxian Pavilion who make a living from this, I am afraid that they are not as skilled as Eleven Niang. She

He couldn't help but smile and said: This silk thread is indeed too simple, it needs to be made into a beautiful thread. He also said, is this given to you by the madam? I look like high-quality Hetian jade. There is no variegation at all.

Truly rare.

Eleven Niang responded vaguely, changed her clothes, and went to Qi Niang's place.

Qiniang had already dressed up, and she and Eleven Niang went to pay homage to the Dowager Madam and then went to Huguo Temple.

Eleven Niang watched as the guards on three levels outside and on three levels surrounded several carriages, which were a little tighter than usual. She knew that Xu Lingyi had specially ordered it. When they went to the Main Hall to burn incense, she and Qiniang went to the Main Hall to burn incense.

The man came back asking for a lot of peace charms.

Qiniang also brought back several bags of rice sausage for everyone to eat.

Eleven Niang was afraid that the food would be unclean and the wife would be upset after eating it, so she only allowed the wife to taste it.

The lady really only took a bite and put down her chopsticks with a smile.

Qiniang encouraged several children to try it.

Xu Siyu, like the concubine, put down his chopsticks after taking a bite, while Sister Zhen looked embarrassed and did not dare to take her mouth after looking at it for a long time. Only Brother Zhun and Xu Sijie ate with gusto. The former also said: There is no Zhao in this.

The one my husband bought from Baiyunguan was delicious.

Zhen Qiniang's heart immediately became active after being hit by Mrs. Tai and Sister Xu Siyuzhen. After hearing this, she immediately said, "Is there rice sausage sold in Baiyunguan? Why didn't I know?"

The meeting gifts that Qiniang gave to Xu Siyu were a book with annotations on the Four Books of the previous dynasty, a set of the Four Treasures of the Study Room from Duobao Pavilion to Brother Zhun, and a gold necklace to Brother Ji. She also had a lively and cheerful temperament, and her children were very fond of each other.

like her.

Of course you don't know. Brother Zhun disapproved and said, Mr. Zhao said, only men know where to eat, where to sing the best operas, where to fish, and where to appreciate plum blossoms. These elegant things are only known to men.

Xu Siyu remained silent.

Qiniang whispered to him: Then tell me where there is delicious food and which opera singer is the best.

Brother Zhun put down his chopsticks and started talking in detail.

Qiniang was a little stunned when she heard this, and asked Eleven Niang: "Has he been to all of them?"

Eleven Niang was advising Xu Sijie: Don’t eat it. The rest should be left for father, fifth uncle and fifth aunt Xin. Only then did Xu Sijie put it down reluctantly.

How could Brother Zhen know this? Of course Mr. Zhao said it.

After hearing this, she said: I am planning to go and see them later.

Brother Zhun felt that Eleven Niang's answer made him look good. He puffed up his chest and said: I will bring you the rice sausage from Baiyun Temple. I guarantee it will be better than this one.

When Xu Sijie heard that there was food, he jumped to the side and said: I want it too, I want it too

It made everyone laugh.
