After the New Year, life did not relax, but became more and more tense.
Qi Yun has to be busy with the shop, and Ye Jiao has to prepare a lot of things. Although Ye Pingrong and Princess Hua Ning got married in the middle of May, this day was to avoid the general examination and the palace examination. Qi Ming would start the examination in March. If he passed the examination, he would have to take the palace examination.
Don't be too late on the road, and don't go too late.
Ye Jiao made a lot of preparations. She only packed four big boxes for her clothes, and she had to bring all kinds of other things.
Because this time she has to bring all her belongings, jewelry and silver bills with her, so she has to choose a competent escort to escort her all the way. Ye Pingrong seems to be able to think of this, and Zhuanmen sent three close escorts to escort her sister all the way. A family goes to Beijing.
The little ginseng also chose a good day to go to the mountains with Qi Yun.
They just bought it, and they have to put it on hold before they can live there. Ye Jiao felt a pity, but Qi Yun was very open to it: "It's not that we won't come back, the capital is full of flowers, but it's not A place where we can stay for a long time, we are not the home of officials, and we don’t have to hold on to it and not let go, and when we come back, we still have to live here.”
Ye Jiao thought about it, and felt that it was the same, so she excitedly went to sort out the herbs she planted.
It's just that not all of these can be taken away. She picked some people to put them in flower pots and take them down the mountain carefully. Some of the rest were given to the Dong family, some to the Zheng family, and more to the Liu family. It's not to be wasted when it is separated from Fang's.
And after these things were dealt with, the three dolls had to be selected for a wife. Of course, she had to be very careful when choosing someone for the children. After Ye Jiao watched Qi Yun, she had to check the mother-in-law's net worth before she could nod her head.
When they were selected, they did not directly take care of the children, but let Mrs. Mo take them with them.
Speaking of raising children, Mrs. Mo is a good hand. Now it is suitable for her to do this. When Ye Jiao was busy with the affairs of Zhuangzi on the mountain, Mrs. Mo gathered a few selected people and taught them carefully. It's better not to let them slip through the cracks.
Mrs. Liu also asked Mrs. Liu to come over to help her discipline people. Mrs. Liu was used to doing these things, and now it is easy to pick it up again.
However, in their spare time, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Mo get together for a drink, and Mrs. Liu is envious: "You are very lucky now, you will go to Beijing when you say that you are in Beijing, and now you have a face in front of the second young grandmother. I'm afraid the days are indescribably comfortable."
This admiration is sincere, and Mrs. Mo also feels that she is lucky.
The second young master's family is capable, everyone knows this, but in front of the second young master and the second young grandma, this is something that no one else can ask for.
I didn't see that Tiezi has become a master now, who doesn't give three points of thin noodles when he comes out
The same is true for Xiao Su. The yellow-haired girl who was half a size before is still thin and small, but she is afraid of anyone who sees her. She is still a little quail in front of her master, but when she goes out to do errands, she is neat and capable, very powerful, and coherent. Along with the family members, they were also in charge of the eldest young master's village.
Mrs. Mo's time with Ye Jiao was short, but she took good care of Xu Bao, and her two sons could also do errands in the second young master's shop.
Even if you don't say that you are rich and noble, at least you will not worry about food and clothing in this life.
For ordinary people, as long as they can do this, they are already satisfied. Mrs. Mo is not too ambitious. She remembers that the owner treats her well, and naturally she has to repay.
Mrs. Liu poured herself a glass of wine and said with a smile: "And I saw that Young Master Xu Bao is very promising. I heard that he can read and write, so it's easy to bring it."
The face of Mrs. Mo, who was originally smiling, froze.
She recognized it all next to her, but this young master Xu Bao is really not easy to bring.
He's smart and has a good memory, and his way of dealing with children doesn't work for him at all.
Mrs. Mo hurt him deeply, but she also felt that every time she talked to Xu Bao, it was easy to be trapped...
But these words are just to be talked about in my heart, and they are annoying when they say it out, as if they were cheap and sold well, Mrs. Mo just smiled and said, "That's also the old sister who helped me match up, if it wasn't for you, where would I come from? Such a good errand?"
To be honest, they all have to listen to Liu's in everything they do, and no one can rely on anyone else's blessing.
But when she said this, Mrs. Liu smiled more earnestly, poured her a glass of wine, and after the two had two sips, Mrs. Liu exhorted: "The capital is actually not a fairyland, looking at wealth, in fact, I did something wrong. Things are going to be unlucky. Remember, listen to the second young master and the second young grandmother, protect them and the young master and the girl is the truth, don't cause trouble and don't be afraid of trouble. "
Mrs. Mo also knows this principle. She has not seen much of the world, so she is right to follow the master. She nodded and said, "I have written it down, thank you old sister."
In the end, there is still something to do. The two of them ate two glasses of wine to warm themselves up, put down the glasses and stopped touching them, but went back to their own business.
After Mrs. Mo finished teaching the newcomers, she went to the study and brought back Xu Bao, who had just finished studying with Feng Xiucai, and went back to the yard. She was feeding Xu Bao half a bowl of milky milk. To Tiezi hurriedly ran out.
Xu Bao also saw it, and immediately turned to look at Mrs. Mo, there was still something in his mouth that was not swallowed, and his eyes were bright.
Mrs. Mo didn't need him to speak, so she threw the bowl away, and let people see that the young master would not fall, but she quickly went out and asked, "What's wrong?"
The doorman didn't seem to be in a hurry, and replied, "It seems that the second young master has caught a cold. Just now, young master Su has gone to invite the husband."
This little servant came here not long ago, and he bought it from outside. He didn't know much about the Qi family's previous affairs, so he didn't think it was a big deal.
Now is the time of the change of seasons. It is warm and cold, and some minor illnesses and disasters are normal.
The second young master just sneezed a couple of times. Ordinary people drink some hot water and sweat it. Not to mention what a big disaster, please make the servant feel a little too careful.
But Mrs. Mo was stunned.
She has also been serving the two owners for a while, but Mrs. Mo has been by Liu's side for a long time. She has also seen Qi Yun's ill appearance when she was a child.
Even though Qi Yun didn't look like he was blown away by the wind now, it was still scary to think that he was sick.
I feel that the second young master has not been sick for a long time, and this sudden encounter like this... It can't be an accident.
Madam Mo was in a hurry, but she couldn't help much, so she could only hurry back to Xu Bao's wing, then breastfeed him, coax him to play, try to let Xu Bao eat and sleep well, but never let him Make trouble again.
When Ye Jiao came back, she happened to see Li Langzhong who was walking quickly from another path.
Little Ginseng was stunned for a moment, and was about to ask, but saw Tie Zi following behind Li Langzhong.
Ordinary Tiezi wouldn't run out alone, he always followed Qi Yun's side.
... Maybe something happened to my husband!
Ye Jiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of her mouth were tightly pursed. She didn't care to talk to them, and didn't have time to ask any more questions. She ran into the yard first, pushed open the bedroom door, and walked in.
Even though it is early spring, I can still feel the coldness of spring.
Because there are not only Qi Ershao who always pay attention to his body in Qi Yun's courtyard, but also three dolls are often there, big and small, so be careful, three charcoal braziers are lit in the house, and the fire is very strong. It feels very warm when you open the door.
And Qi Yun, who was leaning on the soft couch, didn't look any different. He was flipping through the account book when he heard the sound of the door opening and said, "I'm fine, Tiezi, what are you doing in such a hurry... "But before he finished speaking, he smelled a familiar smell.
The faint scent of sweet-scented osmanthus was the scent of the hair oil he applied to Ye Jiao himself.
Qi Yun put down the account book and looked up, but before he could see clearly, Ye Jiao hugged him full.
The little ginseng hugged him nervously, grabbed his wrist, and asked, "But where is the discomfort? Is it cold or hot? Are you dizzy? If you feel uncomfortable, don't sit, just lie down. , take a lot of rest." Then Ye Jiao turned her head to Xiao Su who followed, "Go and bring the quilt."
There was a hint of helplessness on Qi Yun's face. In fact, he just rushed into the cold wind when he opened the door and sneezed twice.
It's just that Qi Yun still understands his own body. There is no major issue. He doesn't feel cold or hot. It doesn't seem like he is sick.
It's okay to diagnose Li Langzhong's pulse, but he doesn't want his wife to worry.
But before Qi Yun could speak, she saw that Ye Jiao was already holding the quilt to cover him, and she muttered, "You lie down." She reached out to push his shoulder.
Qi Yun reached out to help her: "I'm fine, Jiao Niang, don't..."
But before she could finish her sentence, Ye Jiao's knee on the soft couch accidentally pressed against the man's waist.
As soon as I touched it, I felt a numbness in my waist, and Qi Yun almost fell back uncontrollably.
In the eyes of others, it was Ye Jiao's slight push and Qi Yun collapsed.
Qi Erlang saw the familiar expression of "Second Young Master is still weak" in the eyes of the people around him.
Reason told him that he had better not argue, but Qi Yun said subconsciously, "You don't need to worry too much, Jiao Niang, I really don't feel bad."
In fact, Ye Jiao took his wrist to check the pulse, and found that Qi Yun was not sick.
But to take precautions before it happens, the little ginseng didn't dare to let Qi Yun take the risk, so he let Li Langzhong come in and show him.
Before Li Langzhong came, his heart was pounding, and when Tie Zi went to find him just now, he looked anxious, as if Qi Yun was terminally ill, which really frightened Li Langzhong.
Coupled with Ye Jiao's stance that she turned her head and ran away, it made Li Lang's legs go weak.
Now, Qi Yun is the big owner of the Qi family's shop. He supports all the shops of the Qi family by himself, which is irreplaceable.
Now that life is getting better and better, Tie Zi ran to say that the second young master was ill, and that nervous appearance forced Li Langzhong to recall the days when Qi Yun was on the verge of death for three days, a small illness for five days, a serious illness for ten days .
I was very panicked.
But when he entered the door, he saw Qi Yun holding Ye Jiao's hand helplessly, Li Langzhong looked at it a little, and then eased the dark color.
Looking at Qi Yun's complexion, although it is not completely healthy, it does not seem to be seriously ill.
Ye Jiao beckoned, "Mr. Li, come and take a look."
Li Langzhong hurriedly took out the pulse pillow and walked over, placing it under the man's wrist, and then slightly narrowed his eyes to check his pulse.
Looking at his eyelids, and letting Qi Yun open his mouth to take a look, Li Langzhong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's not a big deal, you don't need to take medicine, just lie down for a while."
Li Langzhong has already said this very warmly. In fact, Qi Yun has nothing to do, and is very good. Some of them are just old problems before, and everyone else is fine.
Ye Jiao also breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out her hand and tightly clasped Qi Yun's hand, gently touched his cheek, and said in a soft voice, "You are not allowed to go out today, just lie down, have a good rest, and listen to what Lang Zhong has to say."
Li Langzhong really wanted to say that it's okay not to lie down, but Tie Zi tugged at his sleeve and said softly, "It's time to ask for a pulse on the eldest young lady's side. Would you like to go take a look?"
In fact, Tie Zi didn't know when the time came, but what he knew was that his young master just gave him a cold look...
Better to run away.
Li Langzhong got up to say goodbye and went out with Tie Zi, while the old woman around who wanted to come in and help was also taken away by Xiao Su.
The inner room that was crowded just now was suddenly empty, leaving only Qi Yun and Ye Jiao.
The little ginseng didn't speak, but got up and went to the stove next to him to warm his hands, then turned around and walked over quickly, kicked off the embroidered shoes, and put his arms on the soft couch with a slight force.
Qi Yun wanted to sit up, but saw that his wife had pulled a corner of the quilt and quickly got in.
This quilt was obviously just taken to dry during the day, and it was a little cold when it was just covered, but it could smell the sun, and the cotton was fluffy. .
Qi Yun felt that he was thinking about some insignificant things, and when he came back to his senses, it was because he had a warm body in his arms and squeezed his legs between his legs. The woman had just been roasted hot. The palm hugged him directly, with one hand on the lower abdomen and the other on the chest.
Warm and hot.
Qi Yun hugged her subconsciously and whispered, "What's wrong?"
Ye Jiao buried her face in the crevice of his neck and said softly, "We are rarely together like this these few days."
Qi Yun thought that she was thinking of herself, so she hugged her wife tighter, and said in a gentle voice to Ye Jiao: "There's been a lot of things these days, and it will be better when I'm busy."
Ye Jiao shook her head, but did not speak.
Others felt that Qi Yun's cold this time was just a trivial matter, and there was no fuss about it, but when Ye Jiao just grabbed this person's wrist, she could feel that he was fine, but a little empty.
This hasn't happened for a long time, mainly because the little ginseng always sticks with him, either shaking hands or holding one place, and it can nourish him.
But these days, they really rarely get together like this, but it is obviously not enough to hold hands across the quilt at night, and it is necessary to get closer to make up for him.
The little ginseng couldn't help but think that the appearance of his father-in-law who just pushed it and fell down, I'm afraid it is even more false than the pulse number from his own number.
Just give more hugs.
Seeing Ye Jiao hugging her and not letting go, Qi Yun naturally wouldn't push it away, so she smiled and hugged her.
However, there are three charcoal pots in this house, and the doors and windows are closed tightly. The heat is hot, but it is not good for the body, and in the daytime, the sun is shining outside, and there is a stove in the house, so there is no problem. Suffocate something wrong.
After a while, Qi Yun said to the window, "Xiao Su."
Xiao Su, who was guarding the door, heard the voice and hurried to the window outside and said, "Second Young Master."
"Open the door of the outer room. It's not windy today, so it won't be in the way." Suddenly a thin voice was heard in his ear, and Qi Yun continued, "Also, go and cook a bowl of glutinous rice balls."
After Qi Yun finished speaking, Ye Jiao said, "I'll make another bowl of ginger tea."
After Xiao Su responded, she trotted to the small kitchen.
Qi Yun pinched her face: "Why do you cook ginger tea?"
Ye Jiao couldn't help looking at him, and said, "Ginger tea can warm you up, but are you hungry, husband? I remember you don't like glutinous rice balls."
Qi Yun gently touched her belly with his hand: "You are hungry, I just heard your stomach growl."
The little ginseng didn't feel embarrassed, but smiled and kissed him, thinking that she still understands herself.
But at this moment, someone entered the door.
Seeing that the bedroom door was open, Qi Ming thought that he could enter at will, and he was happy, so naturally he didn't care much, so he shouted and entered the door: "Second brother, I just went to see Xu Bao, he will recite "Hundred Family Surnames" "That's it!"
