I don't know my uncle Qiao Yu very well. He is busy with affairs and rarely goes to Chang'an. But in my impression, he is a kind person. In contrast, I am more familiar with my aunt Ding and my cousin Qiao Ti.
They used to go to Chang'an almost every year, and they would also live in my house.
My aunt Ding is also from a great family, and she is very kind to me. Every time I come to Chang'an, she will bring me many things. I remember that she gave me my favorite silk figurine when I was a child.
But even so, I still don't like my cousin Jyoti.
She is two years younger than me, but perhaps because of my uncle's tall stature, her figure has always been comparable to mine. She likes pretty things, especially pretty things in other people. When she came to Chang'an for the first time at the age of eight, she already showed a charming and envious expression in front of her elders, and told her mother that the Yingluo worn by her cousin was so beautiful, and I had never seen it in Luoyang.
Mother has always been kind to relatives, and when she heard this, she would smile and say, since Arti likes it, I will give it to you. Over the years, I have been forcibly given away many things by my mother, such as ornaments, toys, incense and so on. Once, she still wanted the paper in my study. I like that paper very much. The white paper is mixed with petals and orchid leaves. It was made by Pei Qian for me.
After hearing Qiao Ti say she wanted it, I gave her a hard look and said, no. At that time, my mother still laughed at me for being stingy.
I don't know if this is the reason, two days later, I overheard Yuying and the others talking about me and Pei Qian, Qiao Ti was also with them, and said with a smile, I also feel that Apeng 15 Yuan Ju u hard panic Huan
So, I have never been friendly to Qiao Ti ever since.
Times have changed, and the former little daughter's mind is like a book that has long been forgotten. When she turns it out from the corner, her state of mind is different.
"Meet my aunt." In front of the door, I bowed deeply to my aunt.
"Ah! This four is attached to the horseshoe crab. Walking with cherry blossoms
Qiao Ti looked at me, inheriting her aunt's delicate eyebrows and eyes, full of scrutiny and care.
"Cousin." She walked up to me and bowed her eyebrows.
"Cousin." I smiled back.
My aunt took my hand and expressed her emotions again. I invited the mother and daughter to sit in the hall and let Ah Yuan serve tea.
My aunt looked at A Yuan and said to me: "This servant girl looks very familiar to me, very much like Li's daughter who was in charge of the office in the past.
"Exactly." I smiled, "After my niece arrived in Yongdu, it happened that Mr. Li's family was also there, so we had to reunite."
A Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to his aunt: "A Yuan pays homage to my uncle and wife."
The aunt helped A Yuan up, looked at her and smiled, "I just said why you are so kind, so it's an old friend."
I told my aunt how Li Shang survived the disaster and how he left his hometown and returned to Yongdu.
"Fortunately, my niece went to the street that day and met Li Huan, the son of Mr. Li, and reunited with Mr. Li's family," I said.
My aunt nodded, wiped her eyes, and said, "I know Mr. Li is faithful. Natural disasters and man-made disasters, we are lucky to meet you again." After finishing speaking, she stroked A Yuan's hand and said to me with admiration , "Au Xuan He is a lowering of capital, cutting bribes, playing embarrassment, and letting go, please let me file magpie Meng Xia fan forgive h Xiangdao Xie 16 B Book Head Judgment Mu forgive!
I smiled and said, "Auntie is right."
Then we chatted about trivia. When the uncle was mentioned, everyone was sad, and the aunt couldn't help crying.

"Your uncle was loyal and upright all his life, respecting the old and caring for the young. At the beginning of Fu's troubles, he and other ministers jointly filed a petition to plead for Fu's grievances and offended Empress Bian. He also wanted to go to Chang'an to save people, but he was only halfway there. The knife has already been used..." The aunt choked up, "Your uncle tossed and turned every night because of this, and he didn't dare to tell your grandmother. Every time your grandmother asked about your mother, he would force his face to cover it up. After you married to Laiyang, he thought I went to see you in Laiyang, but later Luoyang was also involved in the flames of war, your uncle voted for Dong Kuang, I don't want to..." She covered her face with a silk handkerchief and began to cry.
"Mother..." Qiao Ti also wept, looked at me, and tried to persuade me in a low voice.
I was also sad, and I heard the words to comfort me. After my aunt calmed down a bit, she asked, "I wonder if cousin Ke is okay?"
The aunt wiped away her tears and replied: "Bo Gong is well, he is studying behind closed doors at home. The emperor will reopen Xiaolian in Yong, and Bo Gong wants to participate in the annual ceremony."
I agreed: "It's a great kindness for my cousin to have this ambition."
The aunt sighed: "The Qiao family is a big family in Luoyang. Now your uncle is only inherited by Bo Gong, so how dare you let it go to waste. It's just a war, most of the old acquaintances in Beijing have been lost, and your uncle is not here, so there is no one to recommend."
I understand that my aunt is asking for something.
Cousin Qiao Ke, I only saw him two or three times. Although I am not familiar with him, I clearly remember that he was quite talented and learned. Once his father tested him, and he answered the questions fluently, which won his father's appreciation.
The original meaning of filial piety is that the court promotes virtuous and capable people as officials. However, for a long time, Xiaolian was under the control of the Gaomen, and became increasingly corrupt. In the time of the first emperor, even if there was no recommendation from a powerful person, even if he was born in a noble family. If it was in the past, this matter would not be difficult at all, but now that the Qiao family is weak, my aunt has no choice but to ask me for help.
For the first time, I felt that the identity of this Wei family woman had some power in the eyes of others.
"My aunt entrusts me, and my niece should promise." I pondered and said to my aunt, "However, if there are some things, my niece will tell my aunt the truth. The niece has joined the Wei family for less than a year, and she spends less time with her husband than she does; I have never had any contact with the matter. When my niece sees her husband, she must express her cousin's affection. The prime minister has always loved talents, and since my cousin has ambitions, he should be fine."
When my aunt heard this, she took my hand and said, "I'm sorry!
I smiled: "It should be so."
The aunt sighed: "Ah T's model is haggard, his brother is so handsome! He's so handsome!
After sitting in the hall for a long time, my aunt told me many things about the farewell. Joti sat beside her and said very little. Except for sometimes talking about her sadness and wiping her tears with her mother, most of the time she looked calm and only looked at me.
After staying for dinner, Auntie and Qiaoti bid farewell and left. I looked at the sky and felt that today was a very long day.
"Ma'am, my uncle is still so eloquent. When it comes to things, no one else can get in." A Yuan said in shock.
I smile, noncommittal.
This aunt, my mother once said she was a shrewd person. I didn't care about these things before, but today I get along with each other, and I have some experience. She came to see me today, probably more because of my cousin. But despite this, Qiao's is my mother's mother's family, and these people are also my last relatives. If they can help, I will not refuse.
Wei An's cart was halfway through, and it didn't go smoothly. He reluctantly admits that his carpentry is too shallow for some parts to be made solid and precise.
"Then put it down for now. When I get back to Yongdu, I'll find two carpenters to help fourth uncle. It won't be difficult." I encouraged.
Wei An nodded, and went back to making various small wooden pieces.
There is no one in the mansion, and the days are a bit boring. There are some old books in the house, but they are all Shangshu and so on. I took one back and threw it on the desk without turning over two pages. Xu Ji is also a person who doesn't have much to do, so she often comes to keep me company during these days.
During the chat, I learned that she was originally the daughter of a servant married by Mrs. Wu, and she grew up in this house since she was a child. At the age of seventeen, Wei Zhao asked Mrs. Wu to be his concubine. Xu Ji didn't say too much when she mentioned this, and I don't know what happened back then. However, judging from the manner of speaking, Xu Ji knows the book and the etiquette, and she doesn't have the slightest cowardice of a servant girl. Although such a beauty comes from a humble background, I am not surprised that Wei Zhao likes her.
In order to pass the time, after I heard that Xu Ji could weave, I even cleaned out the loom used by Wei Tan's mother, Mrs. Wu, and tried to learn weaving from Xu Ji like the virtuous woman taught in the book.
The weather is getting cooler, and news of the battle in the north continues. After Tan Xi died, the soldiers returned to his four sons respectively. While there is no leader in the pack, Wei Qi Huan barks to protect the wish, the patella beer h, the scar, the yam song, the lungs, the graves, the troubles, the lungs, the visits to the private Huijian
At this time, there was a sudden movement in Huaiyang to the south. Wu Zhang was critically ill and childless, so he passed on the foundation to his younger brother Wu Kun.
When I heard the news, I was a little nervous.
Luoyang is far away from Huaiyang, and the news is only a few words. But I deeply understand that under the change of power and position, there are often many shady intrigues, and some people get lucky and others get unlucky. Is Pei Qian there safe and sound
"Ma'am, you haven't been paying attention recently." Xu Ji said after I tore off the warp and weft of several looms.
I knew I was distracted again, and smiled apologetically at her.
"Madam is tired." Xu Ji looked at the sky outside the door and said, "It's getting late, Madam should rest."
I nodded and said, "Alright, let's continue tomorrow."
Xu Ji saluted and left.
I also felt tired. After washing up, I lay on the couch and sighed softly.
Sometimes, I feel like I'm just a life of worry.
How many people can say it lightly, but how many people can do it? Just like me, when I think of Pei Qian's name, I can't help but worry about him. It's not that I still have an old relationship with him, but that I can't be a stranger after all.
Maybe it was something on my mind, I slept very lightly.
In the middle of the night, I felt movement in the mist, and the night wind swept across my neck slightly, as if the doors and windows were not closed tightly.
When a rough touch rubbed my cheek, I woke up suddenly.
The eyes were illuminated by the sudden candlelight, and some couldn't open them. When I struggled to recognize who the person in front of me was, I was still taken aback.
"Awake?" Wei Tan was also a little surprised, for a moment, he smiled, "Forgive me, madam, I didn't mean to."
