In the flower hall in the backyard, there are longing figures, and the bright candlelight shines on the body of Orioles steamed lotus in bright clothes and swaying golden hairpins. It is colorful and dazzles people's eyes.
After eating, everyone talked together.
Qin Keqing took a stack of account books from Baozhu and Ruizhu and said softly: "Husband, some of the craftsmen's recent expenditures on preparing materials. I, Heping'er, and Sister-in-law Feng have compiled the account books together. Take a look."
Although Jia She was exiled to Jizhou, the garden project in the mansion will not be stalled because of this matter. In the past two days, craftsmen such as stone, tiles, wood, flowers... etc. have already prepared materials and settled in.
Jia Heng put down the tea cup, looked at his beautiful wife with warm eyes, and said softly: "You can take care of the affairs in the house."
Qin Keqing chuckled and said, "But your husband is the head of the family, so you have to look at it."
Jia Heng said: "I haven't finished reading the official documents sent by the three yamen recently, and I don't have time to read the account books. You can let Baozhu take it to the house first, and we will talk about this in the evening," R
Third Sister You couldn't help but joked: "It would be too embarrassing to talk about these account books at night,"
Everyone in the room looked strange when they heard this, and felt somewhat ashamed.
Qin Keqing's face turned red with embarrassment, she turned her eyes and rolled her eyes at Third Sister You, but she just pretended not to hear:
She and her husband are not the same every day...
Sister Feng looked at this scene, or looking at the charming girl, Danfeng's eyes flashed, she pursed her lips, and said with a smile: "You three can discuss the matter together tonight,"
Ping'er couldn't help but tugged on Sister Feng's sleeves and said, "Grandma."
Sanjie You's cheeks were red and she glared at Sister Feng,
Secretly, if we discuss it, we can’t do without you.
It's just that Jia Lian has just been exiled, so it's hard to say this in front of everyone.
While several people were talking, they gathered around the table and started playing mahjong.
Seeing the mahjong pieces set up by several people, Yuan Chun's face showed curiosity and asked: What is this?"
Third Sister You said: "Mahjong, like dominoes, is a game that the uncle came up with to relieve our boredom."
Yuan Chun's beautiful eyes looked at Heng who was drinking tea, and said in surprise: "Brother Heng, did you figure this out?"
In her past impressions, Hengdi had never liked these things. She didn't expect to know these tricks. She thought he had a smart mind and could master one method and all methods.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Sister, if you are interested, you can play with them. It is impossible to fall asleep when you go back now."
Yuanchun Fenglan had a bright smile on his face and said: "I don't want to play with this, I just want to take a look,"
Jia Heng nodded and said: "The rest of you are just playing, I'm going to the study."
Everyone nodded and watched Baoyu leave.
It’s the East Mansion, but it’s the West Mansion, the courtyard where Jin Chuan is located,
Jin Chuan is wearing a small red arrow-sleeved robe, her hair is braided, and her forehead is tied with a red forehead. At this moment, she is lying under the bed, holding a book in her hand and flipping through it. The lamplight reflects the full moon on her face, which looks better than before.
red
A lot.
The beating I received on the 17th of the first lunar month was a good one. It has healed a lot and I can initially walk, but my buttocks are still aching.
"Did you hear Ming Yan say that brother Lian Qi was exiled?" Jin Chuan turned the book in his hand and asked Xiang Yun, who was sitting next to him, chewing melon seeds and looking at the picture album.
At that time, there were only story books and some folk tale picture albums. Although the vertical painting technique was as delicate and vivid as the Erotic Palace, it also showed the superb painting skills of that era.
Looking through the light, Duo Nan's apple-round face reveals a sweet, charming and innocent look.
Xiangyun held a melon seed in his hand, placed it on the dry Yinglan's mouth and knocked it, with his lips parted, two big tiger teeth were looming, and he explained: I heard that he was exiled to Jizhou, so I went to deliver it this morning, f
Ask Sister Eight, how little you know about that matter."
Jin Chuannan said: "Why is it so good? Brother Lian Qi has reached that stage."
During that time, Jin Chuan was recuperating in his room. When he had something to do, he would look through some miscellaneous books and turn a deaf ear to what was going on inside. Fortunately, Xiangyun often came over to help relieve his boredom, and Tanchun and Daiyu did not.
Shiyi
Come and talk.
As for Baochai, she also came with Xiaoliu'er to visit her. After all, they are relatives.
Xiangyun also sighed: Listening to Brother Heng's wishes, it is a blessing to save one's life."
Jin Chuan sighed again,
While they were talking, Qian Xue's voice came from inside, calling: "Master Bao Qi, my wife is here."
At that time, Qin Keqing was surrounded by people holding lanterns and playing around. He retreated from the inner room, walked around the screen, raised the curtain and retreated into the outer compartment. He caught a glimpse of Jin Chuan lying under the bed, and his eyes dimly entered the car.
When he saw Xiangyun, he smiled and said, "Zheng Yuncheng is here too."
Ever since Jia Heng threw himself into the well, Qin Keqing suddenly discovered a problem. The house outside his Jinchuan house had become empty instead of crowded.
Even Daiyu, who used to often visit Jin Chuai's house, was little in those few months.
Of course, Daiyu's statement was that... she was disturbing Brother Bao Qi to recover from his injuries.
After a while, people were not like that. In the past, Qin Keqing may not have been a little tired of the eldest sister-in-law's son, but she always pestered her son sickly, fighting and crying at every turn, but it was really
I kept "tangling" and became estranged from my own son, and I felt a little uncomfortable.
Wei Xiangyun, although he was choked by Jin Chuan for "encouraging" Zheng Yun to learn, Xiang Yun was careless and held grudges. When he saw Jin Chuan being beaten and bored outside the house, he often came over to accompany him.
With
Talk to relieve boredom.
Those bits and pieces, in Zheng Yuncheng's eyes, have no meaning of providing help in times of need.
Xiangyun quickly approached and greeted him with a smile, calling out: "Auntie,"
Qin Keqing smiled and nodded, and asked, "Sister You, have you had your meal?"
At that time, I looked up and down at Xiangyun, and saw that although many men were young, they no longer had much plump figures, especially those with apple-shaped eyebrows, pink and plump, and as bright as a shock, and they looked innocent and rotten.
, annoying
evil,
Suddenly a thought occurred to me, maybe it would be wrong to let Sanjie You and Zheng Yun be together in the future?
The Shi family where Sanjie You belongs belongs to a family of two princes, and you are the grandson of the old lady. You are just a...
I originally thought that Sister You’s parents would have left early and she would be alone, but now it seems that it is actually quite appropriate.
As for Bao Yatou, your sister has been obviously hesitant recently. Whenever she mentions a good match, she will be nonchalant about it. You have no idea what she is thinking.
There is something wrong...
Thinking of this place, Zheng Yuncheng's heart became less panicked.
Xiangyun smiled sweetly and said: "Auntie, I just ate with my brother Ai,"
^"Good boy, it's hard for him to come here and chat with his seventh brother every day to relieve his boredom." Qin Keqing smiled as she listened to the words "love brother", but she felt more and more that many men were naive and had no intention, so she reached out and touched Xiang
head of.
Although Xiangyun knew why Zheng Yuncheng was suddenly so close, he didn't feel angry when he saw the elder's amiable attitude. He just felt his head being caressed, but he didn't seem to adapt to it.
Fortunately, Zheng Yuncheng turned to look at Jin Chuan, sat behind him on an embroidered pier, took Jin Chuan's hand, and called out, "Your son, is he feeling better now?"
Jin Chuan nodded and said, "Mom, the imperial doctor came over to see this last one and said that the sore has healed and will be healed in less than half a month."
"Madam, Master Qi, have a drink." At that moment, Jiyue held the tea cup and placed it on the bedside tea table.
Qin Keqing looked at Ji Yue, who was bending down to serve the lord, with a charming look on her face, and her mind was not at all about life:
The eldest girl said that she had to break your gold necklace:
But because of the turmoil caused by Heng's incident, he also hurriedly threw someone away. He turned to look at Jin Chuan and said: "The attacker will be sent to his sister's place. In two days, he will ask you to come and serve him. It will be tomorrow."
come over
Serve you."
"Xi Ren is a good person. It's good that my mother wants you to come back." Jin Chuan nodded and just looked at Ji Yue, remembering the feeling of this. In those days, in the dead of night, I relied on this little fun to survive.
Shiyou said: "Later, Brother Heng also said that he wants you to protect the people outside the house."
Qin Keqing's breath was stagnant, but he thought about his son's words. After thinking about it, he felt that it didn't make sense. He then told him: "Have a good rest in the past few days and take good care of yourself as soon as possible."
Study well and try to drop out of school next year."
Hearing this, Jin Chuan felt bitter in his heart, and the expression on his face became less visible.
Based on Jin Chuan's academic background, Qin Keqing always noticed Jin Chuan's expression, caught a glimpse of the look of confusion, and sighed: "Your son, what will he do in the future if he is studying? You can also live with him."
Yes, he will definitely study and become an official. In the future, he will also give his mother a good reputation. People are scolding us two now. They are both a rice bug and a bastard of Zheng Yuncheng. They really want to keep any dignity at all.
,
As he said that, he took Jin Chuan's arm, a look of sadness appeared on his face.
When you were scolded by this man in front of all the juniors in Rongqing Hall, you felt humiliated.
Jin Chuan buried his head under the pillow because he remembered what Xi Ren had said to me. How was Zi? He probably had to pretend to love reading in the kitchen, so he quickly raised his face with a full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival,
Said: "Mom, when you go to school, you have to study hard."
Hearing this, Qin Keqing felt relieved, but he thought that what he just said had an effect, so he turned around and said, "He must also be worried. I have said in front of the old lady that I am the clan leader.
It is also possible that he will not be his uncle, and there will be no chance of recovery in the future."
Now you have a little boy and a big boy being used by this Young Master Heng. There is no reason why you should let me use your two best boys in vain. Jin Chuan's future career should be used by me no matter what.
Jin Chuan had no choice but to respond with his mouth full.
Qin Keqing nodded and said something else, then left the wing where Jin Chuan was and went to Yuanchun Courtyard.
This morning, my sworn brother's daughter-in-law came over and said that he had found another good marriage, and he just wanted to tell the little girl.
Anyway, if you have figured it out, you can just count on this young master Heng. He is simply too determined.
Let's talk about the courtyard where Yuanchun is. In the wing room, candlelight is bright, and two girls are doing needlework across a large table.
Heng, who was wearing a pink coat and a white plain skirt, raised his eyes to look at Xiren and said loudly: "Sister Xiren, I heard from Baoqin that the garden under the eldest princess's house is beautifully maintained and small, which is very elegant, and we know that we
When you are not lucky enough, you can go with the little girl and have a look."
Not long after the incident on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month had passed, Zheng Yun's mind had changed a lot, and he gradually got used to the leisurely life.
Compared with the time in Zheng Yuncheng's courtyard, Heng and Yueli Kunzi are still holding the first-class Yueli at the moment, but usually because Yuanchun is at home, they have less work to do.
The attacker shook his head heavily, embroidered something with an embroidery needle, and said, "You know, the rules of the Princess Mansion are strict, and you must have hit someone in the past."
Actually, you know what's going on. You have been with Baoqin. Baoqin and the little girl entered the palace together when they were old. Xiang Nong has known her for many years, and your Qi is still in Bao Qiye's room.
serving outside,
I should take you there.
Jia Heng rolled his eyes from right to left, raised his voice and said, "Sister Xiren, do you want to ask him something?"
"What are you asking about?" Xiren frowned, looking at Zheng Yun with a mysterious face, and felt confused.
Jia Heng'er said loudly: "Sister Yuanyang, are you getting along with... Mr. Dongfu Heng?"
Xiren's heart skipped a beat, his eyebrows furrowed, his red face instantly turned bright and he said, "Who did he listen to?"
"Amber outside the old lady's room said that you saw Sister Yuanyang embroidering a sweat scarf, which seemed to be for Mr. Heng." Zheng Yun said loudly,
Xiren said in a hot voice: "You know what you know. Those rumors about the master's private affairs have fallen into the ears of Grandma Lian Qi. You are worried about someone being the raft."
There are many men who occasionally speak very harshly, or in other words, they simply dare to leak.
When Jia Heng heard this, his expression also changed, and he hurriedly said: "You and Hu Hu were chatting privately, and others know it. Mr. Heng has no kindness to you, and you are spreading rumors about me."
Xiren said: "That's good. This man from Dongfu saved him in the first place, but I'm afraid that he might want to go outside Master Qi's room in the future and have to fall under me. He doesn't know how important it is."
Jia Heng said: "Just ask..."
You offended my wife by going out like this first, so you can go back anyway. Besides, no one can protect Master Qi's temperament.
"You know that too, but you just want to go to jail. It's surprising that Mr. Heng is so kind." Xiren said loudly,
He is young, his stock position is low, and his temperament is good.
Just when the two maids were having different thoughts, a jealous voice suddenly came from the ground, saying: "The seventh wife is here,"
Since Zheng Yuncheng came over to ask Yuanchun to say a few words, he saw that the lights in the courtyard were still on, so he retreated to the hall.
Zheng Yun and Xiren looked at each other, looking at each other with a hint of fear in each other's eyes.
It cannot be said that both of them were thrown out by Qin Keqing because of the gold necklace. When they went to see Qin Keqing, they would definitely be punished. At that time, they would inevitably feel anxious.
While they were talking, Qin Keqing was already having fun and retreated to the side room surrounded by Ya Suspicions.
"I've met my wife," Zheng Yunhe Xiren dared to be careless. He put down his needle and thread and saluted Qin Keqing:
Qin Keqing looked at the seventh maidservant and was silent for a while, thinking little about life:
One is Zheng Yun, who has been with you for many years. He has always been honest and well-behaved. However, because of this incident outside the first month, he ended up like this.
The other one is the old lady who served Zheng Yun in the past, because you were the one who blamed this young master. From now on, it is also a good thing. On the contrary, this Jingyue seems to be an honest person. Who is it?
Tao turned out to be a foxy and charming Taoist.
"Well, where's the little girl?"
Qin Keqing asked loudly, her tone and demeanor somewhat stern,
Xiren raised his eyebrows and said loudly: "Go back to Madam, the girl went to Dongfu and will be back soon."
When Qin Keqing heard this, he frowned, but Yue was not very conscious in his heart.
But a moment ago, instead of adjusting my mentality,
At that time, the little girl had a better relationship with Mr. Heng, which would do you no good or bad.
Qin Keqing thought about it and asked, "When did you go? I guess I left some food, so I should be back by then."
He said, instead of sitting down and planning to wait,
Xi Ren said: "I went there in the evening. Looking at the sky then, I think it's time to come back."
Qin Keqing nodded, then looked at Xi Ren, smiled and said, "Xi Ren, is there something wrong with him over there? Jin Chuan is recovering from his injuries, and there is a lack of care here. He will go back tomorrow.
"
Hearing this, Xi Ren paused for a moment and said hurriedly: "Madam, you are so clumsy. If you are just going to serve Master Qi and bump into Master Qi, that will be fine."
The smile on Qin Keqing's face suddenly froze, and the hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly.
You originally thought that you would give that girl a chance to go back to wait outside Jin Chuai's room, but you thought that the girl would actually become a kid and hold a grudge against you?
Looking at Jia Heng again, he saw that the eyes directed at him didn't even dodge, and his heart became even more irritated.
Since when did you become so afraid in the eyes of those suspicious people?
As for whether to let Jia Heng return to your room?
Qin Keqing's mind flashed and he gave up the idea. It turns out that Jia Heng'er did behave in a frivolous manner. Jin Chuan was teasing you back then, and the incident that happened seven years ago has caused such a small fuss. It's best to let him go back.
People joke that they also add trouble to themselves,
Sensing Zheng Yuncheng's expression, Wu Xing's wife answered: "Xiren, my wife asked him to go back for his own sake. He is also old. How many years can he stay with the little girl? The next one, Lian,
Wang'er's daughter-in-law next to Grandma Qi also said that my eldest son was getting older and was going to beg Grandma Lian Qi to find a wife. Wang'er's wife was also very sharp-sighted and she spotted him at a glance.
Because of other entertainment
You're a little girl, ask your wife."
That was actually a warning to Xiren. If he was obedient, he might not be able to be the aunt outside Jin Chuai's house. If he was obedient, he would end up being randomly matched with his eldest son in the future.
But those words are something that only the Wu Xing family can say. Qin Keqing can say those words, and he is too kind.
Qin Keqing frowned and scolded: "What are you talking about?"
The expression on the face of the Wu Xing family member changed, and he quickly walked in with his hands lowered and said angrily: "Yes, Madam."
Her eyelids were slightly pale, her teeth were biting her lips tightly, and her heart was filled with a thick layer of gloom.
With the temperament of a man who is weak when there are many men, if he is matched with a big man, he will obviously be in low spirits.
Qin Keqing looked at Duo Nan's changing expressions, and then spoke in a narrow tone of comfort: "Xiren, don't listen to your nonsense. He will take good care of the little girl, and he will never be as stupid as him in the future."
Xiren said hurriedly: "Thank you, madam."
At that moment, Xixi said: "Madam, the little girl is back,"
Yuanchun watched several people playing mahjong for a while. Duonan was the cold one, and someone was also there, so he thought it was interesting and returned to the house.
^"Mom?" Yuanchun stepped into the wing and saw his mother. He was stunned and asked, "Why are you here?"
"It's good that he comes back once in his life, so come and see him. Did he just come from Brother Heng?" Qin Keqing asked with a smile,
Yuan Chunzhong smiled and said, "I've been sitting outside Hengdi for a while, but I have to go back to the eldest princess's house tomorrow. Are you looking for me?"
Qin Keqing nodded and said, "Let's talk about ourselves."
Yuan Chun sat down behind him and Rouji whispered: "Mom, is everything okay?"
Qin Keqing took Yuan Chun's hand and said with a smile: "Today, his cousin-in-law came to visit and said that you have found a good match for him. He is a military attache in his uncle's hands and a general. I heard that you have found a good match for him."
The family background is still wrong. Several generations of generals can be regarded as young and talented."
Wang Ziteng has not yet sent the memorial to the Beiping Mansion, and has already obtained the permission of Emperor Chongping. When he goes north, he will be accompanied by his generals. After all, he has been a general in the army for more than seventy years. During those years
also not
Marrying Yuan Chun, a young and handsome man who catches his eye, can be regarded as a kind of wooing in itself.
When Yuanchun heard this, his heart skipped a beat, his face changed slightly, and he asked: "Mom, why do you think you are carrying that when you are so hot?"
": Little girl, he's grown up too. As a mother, you worry about that thing every day. How do you say it's heat or prevention?" Zheng Yuncheng said,
Yuanchun is already seventy-one. At that age, life says that young men are left behind. When Qin Keqing saw someone saying that the young lady is marrying me, but there was any news, she would keep waiting.
Yuan Chunran raised her beautiful eyebrows, a look of worry appeared in her beautiful eyes, and said hurriedly: "You have only been out of the palace for a long time, and you still serve your mother well, should you wait for another seven years?"
"Still waiting - seven years? Which prince has he seen with a daughter who has left the cabinet after seventy?" Qin Keqing said angrily,
Yuan Chun frowned and said hesitantly: "Mom, Brother Heng said one after another that I would take care of it. I have a wider network."
^"I am so busy with official duties, how can I take care of it? Besides, we have to pay attention to our own affairs, so that we can always bother others with everything. As for having a wide range of people, his uncle is also bad." Qin Keqing said loudly.
Then he laughed at himself and said: "I mean you only want Fan Zheng Yuncheng? If you marry a general's son from your prince's family, you will be considered the wife of Prince Fan, right? Besides, that time he was the vassal king, so I always
