Lady of Fortune, Jiao Niang

Chapter 160

Views:

After this cross-horse parade, the capital was lively for a while, and Qi Saburo, who finally got the most flying flowers, was considered to be famous overnight in the capital.

Many people also learned from this time that Tanhua Lang Qiming was the third son of the Qi family wine shop, and he caught up with the Qi family wine shop's Jinzun wine for sale at a reduced price. Even though they felt that the Jinzun wine was expensive, many people still bought some. Come home and join in the fun.

They all call Jinzun wine Tanhua wine in private.

Just like many people like to worship in temples and Taoist temples for high school, Jinzun wine has this effect now, if not because the name was given by Chu Chengyun, and two Jinzuns were written specifically. Word, I'm afraid Qi Yun has already changed his name to a big sale.

In the midst of the excitement, the matter of Queen Meng recruiting her maiden into the palace seemed silent.

Not only did this come and go without attracting attention, but the Meng family didn't seem to have changed anything after that, so naturally no one cared.

When the apricot flowers fell, Qi Saburo also got an official position.

The editor of the Hanlin Academy, the post of the seventh grade, looks at the official position is not high, but it is a serious Beijing official and entered the Hanlin Academy. What he usually does is compiling books, writing history, drafting edicts, etc., and the opportunity to contact the emperor Many of them can also directly encounter the political situation of the court.

As for whether or not to stay in the future, it is up to each individual's ability.

But since Qi Ming entered the Hanlin Academy, he seldom goes home for dinner at night. Qi Yun doesn't care about it, but Xu Bao always talks about the third uncle, seven or eight times a day, even with Ye Jiao paying more attention. some.

Qi Ming didn't come back that night, so Ye Jiao looked at Qi Yun and asked, "Sanlang has been very busy recently? I see that he rarely comes back to eat at night."

Qi Yun gave Ye Jiao a bowl of fish balls, and when he heard the words, he replied, "Entering the Hanlin Academy is a good opportunity. Naturally, he has to work harder. Don't worry, the people in the Hanlin Academy won't be able to starve him."

Ye Jiao took the bowl and stirred it with a spoon, but her eyes turned to Xu Bao.

The little guy can accompany his parents to have dinner now. Even though he can't touch many of the dishes that adults eat, he has to make some light and nutritious dishes alone, but Xu Bao likes the feeling of eating together. The small porcelain bowl sat beside Ye Jiao and ate happily.

Ye Jiao gave him a pair of chopsticks, then smiled and said, "Xu Bao heard what your father said? Uncle San has something to do and can't come back recently, so don't make trouble with him, okay?"

Xu Bao raised his head and said softly: "Okay, Xu Bao is obedient, mother."

Ye Jiao smiled when she heard the words, leaned over and smeared on his little fleshy cheeks, Qi Yun nodded too, feeling that her fat son had made great progress recently, and he was much more well-behaved than before.

Then I heard Xu Bao continue: "It's just that the third uncle can't read to Xu Bao. Is it okay for Dad to read to Xu Bao?"

Qi Yun: …

Ye Jiao immediately turned her head to look at Qi Yun: "Maybe I haven't heard Xianggong read a book for a long time." There was obviously anticipation in her eyes.

If it is said that Qi Yun can still use some words to deceive Xu Bao, but when it comes to Ye Jiao, he will never try to avoid her, nor will he refuse her request.

Now that Ye Jiao spoke, Qi Yun couldn't shake her head, so she could only nod silently.

Xu Bao cheered, picked up the spoon and quickly ate the rice in the bowl. There was not a grain of rice left, and then he reached out to Mrs. Mo and asked her to hold him to find a book, and let her father go to bed before going to bed at night. read.

Qi Yun didn't say a word, just thought in his heart that there is probably a causal cycle in this world.

In the past, he used reading to hold down Qi Ming and hold down a stone, but now he was held down by his fat son...

Ye Jiao didn't think much about it, she took a fish ball with a spoon and put it in her mouth, bit it, it was tender and chewy, it was delicious.

Seeing that Ye Jiao liked it, Qi Yun also had a smile on his face, and said slowly: "This is to scrape and chop the herring meat, stir it with soybean flour lard, beat it with your hands, add onion and ginger juice to make a ball, and cook it into a shape. , then scoop it up and put it in cold water, then add it to the chicken soup and bring it to a boil.”

This is not the first time Ye Jiao has heard Qi Yun talk about the recipes. Even though Qi Yun is not close to the cook, he always speaks the truth. Ye Jiao likes to eat. Hearing him talk about food, he will be fascinated and laugh at the end. With exclamation: "Xiang Gong is really powerful, we all know that."

Qi Yun forgot the pain of having to study at night, and said with a smile on his face: "The restaurant has a new cook, and this chicken soup and fish balls is his specialty, so I will let him go home and cook it for you. "

Ye Jiao nodded immediately, "I like it."

In fact, calling the cook in the shop home is nothing to the cook, and he can even be happier. He gets a lot of monthly money, and if he does a good job, he can get a reward from the owner.

As for the loss of the shop, it was Qi Yun's own, so he didn't care at all.

Even Qi Yun asked, "How about I let him take charge at home?"

Instead, Ye Jiao shook her head: "That's such a waste, it's not far from left and right, just eat it if you want."

Qi Yun smiled and nodded.

Tie Zi, who was reading a book at the door, heard this conversation and felt his eyebrows jump.

This cook was dug up by the second young master of his own family. It took a lot of effort to support the business of the restaurant. As a result, I just heard that if the second young grandmother nodded, the cook will come to the house. In the kitchenette?

Tie Zi was not surprised that Ye Jiao would refuse. Even though the Second Young Mistress usually looked at everything, she always saw clearly.

On the contrary, it is his own second young master, who is really hard to buy with a smile.

It can be regarded as knowing how the princes of the ancient beacon show came to be, they are really faint...

"Brother Zheng, what are you doing squatting here?" Xiao Su picked up the curtain and went out, holding the removed plate in her hand, and saw the iron squatting at the door at a glance.

If it were someone else, Tie Zi would definitely be motionless, what to do.

But in front of Xiaosu, Tiezi has always been paying attention to his image, he immediately jumped up when he heard the voice, stood up straight, and then said with a smile: "Look at the book, the second young master said that I will finish it this month, he wants to take the test. of."

Although Xiao Su was still very afraid of Qi Yun, she was trembling when she saw him before, and now she is more in awe, respecting him.

The second young master is so capable, even though he is afraid, Xiao Su is still convinced, at least for her, what the second young master said is bigger than the sky and always correct, what he asked Tie Zi to do naturally has his own reason.

After listening to Tie Zi's words, Xiao Su couldn't help laughing: "This is a good thing, it proves that the second young master values ​​you very much, Brother Zheng, you should work harder."

Tie Zi responded with a smile, and then followed Xiao Su towards the small kitchen, reaching out his hand enthusiastically: "I'll help you carry it."

Xiaosu hid for a while and said, "This is my job, Brother Zheng, don't you want to read a book? Hurry up and read it."

Tie Zi responded, and then a silly smile appeared on his face, watching Xiao Su leave.

When Xiao Su entered the small kitchen, Tie Zi walked back one step at a time. Just when he returned to the door to read, he heard Qi Yun's voice: "Tie Zi."

The smile on Tie Zi's face faded as much as possible, he picked up the curtain to go in, and cupped his hands tightly, "Second Young Master."

"Can you find the house you were looking for before?"

When Tie Zi heard this, he immediately replied, "I'm looking for it, but I haven't found a suitable one yet."

Ye Jiao was eating apricot cheese. Hearing this, she couldn't help but look at Qi Yun and said, "Xiang Gong, why are you still looking for a house?"

Qi Yun poured her a cup of tea and said in a gentle voice, "Now Saburo has also got an errand and is a serious official. After all, where we live are mostly merchants, the population is complicated, and it's not easy to go in and out. Saburo recently These days, he seldom comes back for dinner, and he has said it himself that he leaves early and returns late, and he plans to find a house to live in after he receives his salary."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Yun saw Ye Jiao dig a spoonful of apricot cheese and hand it to him.

The man opened his mouth to eat, Ye Jiao had a smile on his face, and gave herself another mouthful before saying, "But I heard you say before that Saburo's monthly salary is not much, and the house in this capital is expensive, does he have enough money? ?"

Qi Yun looked calm: "It's okay, I'm going to buy a suitable one, and then find someone to pretend to be the landlord and rent it to him."

If he directly said to buy him a house, Qi Ming would definitely not be willing.

But let Qi Saburo go to the yard by himself. If he can't find it, it's another matter. He can't afford to delay this time alone. Besides, whether Qi Ming is an official or not, in Qi Yun's eyes, he is a teenager. Yes, I thought of this way.

Qi Erlang has always remembered Liu's advice. He took his third brother on the way to the imperial examination and sent him to the capital. Now that his parents are away, he has to take good care of his third brother. Naturally, he has to think carefully about everything.

Ye Jiao knew that this was the result of Qi Yun's thinking about Zhou Xiang's past. She smiled and looked at Qi Yun slightly and said: "Xiang Gong is really a good person." But there are still things to consider for him.

Qi Yun kissed Ye Jiao and accepted the compliment calmly.

When night fell, Xu Bao ran over with the book and pestered Qi Yun to read it to him. Ye Jiao also stared at him, making Qi Yun have no excuse to refuse.

On the second day, Qi Yun woke up a little late, and when she woke up, she saw Ye Jiao had been groomed, lying beside the bed and staring at him with a smile.

This made Qi Yun a little dazed, and there was no sound for a while.

He still remembered that in the early morning when he just got married, his wife was looking at him on her stomach like this, wearing only a tube top, with a thin strap around her neck, her eyes were wide, curious and doubtful, At that time, Qi Yun was all red.

Ye Jiao was dressed neatly at the moment, but her eyes were still the same as before, her brows and eyes were smiling, her eyes were clear, and she could see the bottom at a glance like a pool of spring water.

Qi Yun was no longer the paper-clad body that was blown down by the wind, and he was no longer unfamiliar with his wife, so Qi Erlang's first thing was to stretch out his hand, hold Ye Jiao's wrist, and push it slightly hard. I dragged myself here.

Ye Jiao lay down beside Qi Yun directly, leaned in front of Qi Yun, looked left and right, Qi Yun looked a little inexplicable, and asked, "What is Jiao Niang looking at?"

The little ginseng was afraid of being on Qi Yun's body, and put his arms on this person's chest, and replied with a smile: "Xiang Gong is still the same as before."

"how?"

"As long as you read at night, you will get up late the next day."

As soon as these words came out, Qi Yun's ears turned red.

He knew that what Ye Jiao said had no other meaning, but this book was not another book.

Last night, I slept a lot because I was studying for Xu Bao late, but at other times, studying books is not only a waste of brains, but also a waste of physical strength. Naturally, it is different.

So Qi Erlang hugged Ye Jiao's waist, tightened his arms slightly, and said softly, "Then let's try again tonight to see if I can't get up tomorrow, okay?"

Ye Jiao nodded immediately: "Okay." Then Ye Jiao said again, "I'll help you press your waist at that time."

This made Qi Yun's ears hot again.

At this moment, Tie Zi's voice came from outside the door: "Second Young Master, Second Young Mistress, a letter from my hometown."

Ye Jiao immediately turned over from Qi Yun and went to open the door, but Tie Zi didn't look sideways after entering the door, just handed the letter into Ye Jiao's hand, but did not leave.

Since it's a letter from home, everyone can read it. Ye Jiao took the letter and prepared to open it, and said, "Do you still have something to look for?"

"Um."

"Then go in, remember to close the door and don't let Xianggong suffer."

"Yes, Second Young Mistress."

Only then did Tie Zi push the door and enter the inner room. Qi Yun had already stood up in his coat. When he saw him coming in, he knew that there was something important. Qi Yun sat down again, and after Tie Zi closed the door, he said, "Let's talk."

Tie Zi walked over and said in a low voice, "The letter client who sent the letter told me that he had also been to the Sun family, so he should have delivered the letter to the Shen family."

Qi Yun raised his eyebrows slightly: "Miss Shen? Does the Sun family still take her in?"

"Probably so."

When Qi Yun heard the words, he did not speak immediately.

Qi Yun didn't have much impression of the big girl Shen, but she didn't expect the Sun family to keep her after the reputation of the big girl Shen was ruined, which made Qi Yun feel unexpected.

It's just that Qi Yun never gives half a glance to those who can't get through the storm.

Seeing that Qi Yun was silent, Tie Zi said, "Do you need to keep an eye on it?"

Qi Yun said lightly: "No, let her go. We have a lot of things to do now. You don't need to worry about such irrelevant people, I'm afraid Jiao Niang will forget her long ago."

Tie Zi remembered another thing: "Steward Qin came here just now, saying that the old man was ill, and he had already called Lang Zhong to go."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Qi Yun stand up and said, "Remember to tell me about this later, help me change, and you can come with me too."

Tie Zi hurriedly responded and went over to help him wash and change his clothes.

Ye Jiao also heard the movement, pushed the door and went in, she was slightly taken aback: "Xianggong, is there something?"

"Well, Jiao Niang doesn't have to wait for me to eat at noon." Qi Yun said and kissed Ye Jiao's forehead.

The little ginseng held his head up and let him kiss, but said in his mouth: "But I think it's going to rain outside."

If someone else said this, Qi Yun would definitely not believe it, but Ye Jiao could see it before the rainstorm broke out, so Qi Yun naturally believed her words, and asked, "Is it big?"

Ye Jiao obediently shook her head: "It shouldn't be big, it's smaller than when Saburo went to the exam before."

Qi Yun nodded and said, "That's okay, I'll bring a cape and an umbrella, don't worry, Jiao Niang, I'll go back early."

Qi Yun used to go out on rainy days, and the weather was getting warmer, so it shouldn't be in the way, Ye Jiao nodded, but she still took him and watched him leave after breakfast.

As for the Sun family and the Shen family, Qi Yun forgot about it for a long time and didn't even mention it.

Compared with the indifference of Qi Er and his wife, Shen Da was angry in her heart and anxious on her face.

She came to the capital for a long time, but her reputation is not getting better day by day.

According to Lady Shen, the woman who is going to be sent to the palace must at least have a location. The palace always has to send someone to settle it. Who knows that she has come too early, so she can only settle herself and live in the capital. It's not easy, the money has been spent a long time ago.

He tried to defraud the old man on the street and get some money back, but Ye Jiao broke it. Not only did the money fail, but his reputation was ruined.

Even though the Sun family is willing to take her in now, it will only depend on the possibility that she will enter the palace in the future to feed and clothe her.

But Miss Shen knew in her heart that entering the palace was not a sure thing.

Not to mention the beautiful and magnificent ladies I have seen recently, their background alone is not comparable to her from a small family.

It is also from a small door. When people enter Beijing, they will find a high-profile family to rely on, and use this as a reliance, and they can also have a helper in the future. However, the reputation of Shen Da was ruined. The future will certainly be more difficult.

Now that it was time to enter the palace to be elected, the Sun family gave her an idea, telling her that after entering the palace, there would be a way out if she had money, but the Sun family was not willing to give her a tael of silver, Miss Shen. That's when I thought about reaching out to the house.

If you have money, you can clear the relationship, and only then can you stay in the palace.

"Girl, there's a letter from home!"

After listening to the maid's words, Shen Da lost her mind to entertain herself in the mirror. She lost her comb, turned her head and trotted over to grab the letter from the maid's hand and opened it to read.

She doesn't care about what is written at home, she doesn't care how her parents are doing, she just wants to see if there are any banknotes in it.

But the result was that Miss Shen was not disappointed, a five hundred taels of silver bill almost made Miss Shen faint with joy.

However, the little girl who had been following her bent over and picked up the family letter from the ground, looked at it, and handed it to her: "Girl, it is said that the silver note was given by your aunt."

"It doesn't matter who gave it, as long as I have the money, I can stay in the palace." Miss Shen didn't even read the letter, she just held the silver note, her fingertips trembling, and her face seemed to cry. It seemed like he was about to laugh, but in the end, it all turned into complacency.

In fact, Miss Shen has hatred in her heart, and the most hated is the Qi family.

She didn't feel at all that there was anything wrong with the Qi family's tricks and tricks, but she felt that the Qi family's piercing in the street was not giving her face, and she wanted to force her to a dead end!

But now, Miss Shen felt that her hope had come.

As long as you can enter the palace, everyone around you can talk.

She handed the silver note to the maid and said in a low voice, "Don't let the people of the Sun family see it, you can exchange it for loose silver, gold ingots and silver ingots, remember to hide."

The maid hurriedly responded and left in a hurry.

Lady Shen's face had calmed down, and there was still a smile on her face. She slowly turned her head and looked at herself in the bronze mirror for a long time, thinking in her heart, wait and see, the good days of the Qi family will soon come to an end, especially Ye Jiao, you must make her look good.

As for Ye Jiao, she really forgot about the existence of the big girl Shen, and didn't even care about the matter of choosing a concubine. She spent a day reading the family letter over and over again.

The former villain used to be a quilt and a bed. She had no concept of home, and she didn't know what missing was. Her friends were only little foxes, and they were always together, so naturally they wouldn't think about it.

But now the little ginseng has a home, not only the home of herself and her husband's children, but also the hometown thousands of miles away. Even if life is going well now, Ye Jiao will still have something in her heart.

The letters sent were very thick, some were written by Qi's father Liu, some by Qi Zhaofang, and there was even a letter specially written by Shi Shi to show Xu Bao.

Ye Jiao kept smiling until she saw Shi Shi's letter, and then she pursed her lips.

When Xiao Su saw it, she couldn't help but ask, "Second young lady, what's wrong?"

Ye Jiao looked at her, and then said, "The stone is so small, and the words written on it are better than mine."

Xiaosu: …

Xiao Su has seen the round font of his second young grandmother for a long time. In all fairness, Master Stone's handwriting is not very good, but at least it is horizontal and vertical. It is indeed more square than the second young grandma's always lying on the ground.

However, Xiao Su naturally wouldn't say it explicitly, but she wouldn't know how to lie and deceive people, so she could only change the subject bluntly: "Looking at the sky is going to rain, I don't know when the second young master and brother Zheng will come back."

Ye Jiao put down the letter and looked outside.

There was some worry in his eyes, but the little ginseng was still comforting himself: "This rain will not be heavy, don't worry, the husband has a carriage and an umbrella, it's okay."

Xiao Su nodded and said, "Second Young Mistress, do you want someone to put up some coarse cloth to block the herbal flowers?"

Ye Jiao forgot about this, but she remembered it after she reminded her, and hurriedly said: "Yes, it's better to go on quickly."

As soon as Xiao Su went out, his subordinates immediately got busy and quickly set up the shelves.

But after the rain fell, Ye Jiao didn't have the heart to read the family's books, and couldn't do other things. She just sat on the soft couch, leaned against the window, opened the window, and looked out.

I didn't worry about it before, but I can't help but talk about things. The more I talk about it, the more I worry about it.

Seeing her like this, Xiao Su knew that Second Young Master was worried, but Ye Jiao didn't say anything, she couldn't comfort her, so she could only go out the door cautiously, called a girl in the corridor, and said softly, "You go. In the front hall, if the second young master comes back, tell the second young master, the second young grandma has something to tell him and ask him to come over first."

"Yes, Sister Xiaosu, I remember."

When the girl who sent the message ran to the front hall, she caught up with Qi Yun's carriage and stopped at the door.

On the carriage, Qi Yun was talking to Tie Zi: "The old man's body should be taken care of with good medicine, remember to tell Steward Qin not to be stingy with money, and be sure to help him take care of his body, it will be of great use in the future."

Tie Zi responded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Second Young Master, you gave him the cloak when you left..."

Qi Yun didn't mind: "That cloak wasn't bought by Jiao Niang, it's okay."

Tie Zi choked for a moment, and then said, "I mean, Second Young Master, it's still raining outside, and it's inevitably cold. If you don't have a cape, you might be swept away by the cold wind."

Qi Yun wanted to say that it would not be in the way, but he also knew that his body was indeed weaker than ordinary people, and he should be cautious if ordinary people were not afraid.

Especially now, with a wife and children, seniors and juniors, Qi Yun was even more unprepared to let her have an accident so as not to worry Ye Jiao.

Just as he was about to ask Tie Zi to fetch a cloak for himself, he heard Qi Ming's voice from outside the carriage: "Second brother?"

Qi Yun lifted the curtain and looked out, and saw Qi Ming, who was beside the carriage, was wearing an official uniform and holding an umbrella, smiling at him.

Qi Ming heard the words on the carriage just now, and when he saw his second brother, he showed a bright smile, and then said to Liusi: "Put my coat on the eldest brother, so as to block it. windshield."

Originally, Qi Yun could let Tie Zi go in and get it, but now that Qi Ming opened his mouth, Qi Yun also accepted this feeling, and there was a smile on his face, and he was relieved to think that the third brother had really grown up.

And Liusi immediately handed over the clothes he was holding, Qi Yun got out of the car wearing it, and entered the door with Qi Ming.

As soon as she entered the front hall, the girl came over and said, "Second young master, second young grandma misses you... No, I have something to tell you."

As soon as these words came out, Qi Ming laughed first.

I'm afraid the first half of the sentence is true and the second half is made up.

But Qi Ming didn't say anything, but he envied the love of the second brother and the second sister-in-law, and said in his mouth: "Then second brother, hurry up, I'll go to study in the study." Seeing that Qi Yun wanted to return the clothes to him, Qi Ming hurriedly said, " It's okay, the second brother will give me the same tomorrow."

Qi Yun paused, reached out and patted Qi Ming's arm, and then let Tie Zi hold the umbrella and leave quickly.

Qi Ming watched Qi Yun leave, and then held Liusi and whispered, "I still want to go out tonight. If the second brother asks, remember to cover it up for me."

Liu Si looked at Qi Ming and learned to lower his voice: "Three, three young masters, this time... is this time going to dinner?"

Qi Ming smiled and said, "I'm going to discuss poetry."

When Liu Si saw Qi Ming's expression, he knew that he was very happy now, but he didn't know that his third young master was going to see Dang Jinzi.

For Qi Ming, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with eating and talking about poetry with the Ninety-Five Zun. On the contrary, Qi Ming felt that this was normal.

After all, in Qi Ming's heart, Chu Chengyun was the righteous brother first, and then the emperor.

Usually in the court, he has always been polite and disciplined, but in private, he gets along with him as usual as before.

It's just that these Qi Ming are not ready to let more people know, especially the second brother.

So Qi Ming told Liusi: "If the second brother asks you, you can say that I have an appointment with someone, and don't say anything next to it. It's fine to ask you if you don't know anything, understand?"

Liusi nodded obediently and replied, "Liusi, Liusi doesn't know anything."

"Good." Qi Ming smiled and rubbed the top of Liusi's hair. Then he held the umbrella and went back to the yard with him to change clothes. He also brought the poems and strategies he did recently, and then he carefully supported it. Umbrellas leave from the side door.

On the other side, as soon as Qi Yun entered the yard, Ye Jiao, who was lying by the window, saw him.

The three children were all around Ye Jiao at the moment, Xu Bao was carrying the book Qi Yun read to him yesterday, Ning Bao listened intently, and Ruyi was sleepy.

The little ginseng put on her shoes and went to the ground when she saw Qi Yun came back, and the three dolls looked over at the same time.

When Qi Yun opened the door and came in, he was hugged by his wife, accompanied by the laughter of the children.

Qi Erlang hurriedly supported Ye Jiao, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the three dolls on the soft couch without saying a word.

Xu Bao covered his mouth wisely, even though his eyes were still rolling, Ning Bao was always silent, he didn't laugh just now, and he wasn't threatened by Qi Yun now.

Only Ruyi, staring at her father and mother cheerfully, her laughter crisp and arrogant, seems to be certain that Qi Yun can't do anything to her.

And the little girl's idea was right. Qi Yun always spoiled her. Seeing her laughing non-stop, she could only shake her head helplessly. Then she looked down at Ye Jiao and said, "Did Jiao Niang miss me?"

Ye Jiao nodded frankly: "I think about it." Then she reached out and grabbed Qi Yun's wrist, making sure that this person was all right, and said, "I won't let you go out when it rains in the future."

Qi Yun knew that she was worried, and even though his body was no longer so cautious, Qi Yun enjoyed Ye Jiao's concern very much. of."

Ye Jiao let go of him, and then saw that Qi Yun was wearing Qi Ming's clothes.

Although Qi Ming has grown taller, he is half a head shorter than Qi Yun, and his stature is not enough. His clothes are a little too small for Qi Yun.

Even though there wasn't much wind outside, the rain didn't fall straight down, it was always a little slanted, and Qi Yun's cuffs and corners of the clothes were a little wet where the coat couldn't stop them.

Ye Jiao said to Xiao Su, "Carry the tub in and burn more hot water."

Qi Yun wanted to say that it was okay, but she swallowed all the words in Ye Jiao's clean eyes, and let Ye Jiao be obedient.

When the tub was brought in, he pulled the screen and lit the heater, and then Qi Yun took off his clothes and soaked in.

It was night and the lanterns were hung up.

Ordinary people choose to bathe at night, but Qi Yun is different. He has always been frail and has been bathing during the day. This is the first time that Qi Yun has been in the tub at night.

So Ye Jiao asked someone to bring in three buckets of hot water, adding some from time to time to prevent her husband from getting too cold.

Qi Yun was afraid that she would be tired, so he held Ye Jiao's hand and said, "Let Tie Zi come, go and take a rest."

Ye Jiao didn't insist, she nodded with a smile, handed the wooden spoon to Tie Zi, and walked out of the screen to the inner room.

On the bed, the three children had already played.

Ruyi is a lively temperament and can't be idle. When he is with Ning Bao, I don't know if the twins will really have a good heart. As long as Ning Bao is sleepy, Ruyi will not make trouble. He will hold Ning Bao to sleep obediently. It's honest.

But as long as Ruyi saw Xu Bao, he immediately regained his energy, crawled fast, and hugged him tightly.

And Xu Bao also likes his sister very much. He is a soft-tempered person, and even more so with his own family. If Ruyi wants to play with him, he can put down his favorite books and accompany Ruyi to make trouble.

At this moment, Ruyi is holding Xu Bao's leg, giggling and dangling, reaching out to get the cloth ball in Xu Bao's hand.

Xu Bao raised his chubby hand high, and said softly: "Sister come, call brother, brother will give it to you."

But before Ruyi could speak, after hearing Xu Bao's words, she made two "ah" in her mouth, and then she reached out to ask for it.

Xu Bao was very strict, shook his head, and said persistently: "It's my brother, I call my brother Ruyi."

Ruyi couldn't shout, so he simply didn't speak, and threw himself on Xu Bao with a smile.

Then, seeing that Xu Bao really didn't give it, Ruyi pursed her mouth, hugged Xu Bao unwillingly, and looked up hard.

At this moment, Xu Bao felt a little itchy in his arm.

It's like someone is pinching themselves.

He subconsciously put his hand down, trying to avoid it, but the cloth ball in his hand was snatched away by Ruyi, hugged him in his arms and giggled and rolled away.

Xu Bao turned his head blankly, and saw that Ning Bao slowly withdrew the hand that had just squeezed his creaking nest. Seeing Xu Bao staring at him, Ning Bao was not afraid, yawned, and was ready to hold his own ball of wool. Get up and sleep.

Xu Bao immediately sat up straight.

If Xu Bao couldn't do anything when Ning Bao was harassing him before, and now he is catching the current situation, how can he let it go!

Xu Bao immediately crawled over and wanted to pull out Xu Bao's ball of wool, but Ning Bao turned around and saw that Ye Jiao was sitting on the edge of the bed. Gululu rolled to Ye Jiao's side, his little head digging into Ye Jiao's arms.

Clearly she didn't make a sound, she didn't cry, but Ye Jiao felt wronged by her youngest son.

It's just that the little ginseng can also be seen clearly. Just now, Ning Bao pulled his hand and helped Ruyi tease Xu Bao. There is no right or wrong between the children, but the little ginseng has always remembered Liu's words and asked the child for a bowl of water. Flat, can not favor any one.

It's really hard to talk about this, and the little ginseng is also a bit speechless.

But just before Ye Jiao spoke, Xu Bao had already crawled over, with a chubby little body sitting beside Ye Jiao, reaching out to pat Ning Bao's little butt, only to hear Xu Bao solemnly say, "Brother, you just helped Ruyi. already."

Ning Bao still lay in Ye Jiao's arms and did not speak.

The next moment, I heard Xu Bao say: "You did the right thing, you want to help my sister, I didn't do it right just now, I shouldn't rob you of the ball."

As soon as these words came out, Ning Bao looked up at him, and Ye Jiao also looked at her own Xu Bao in surprise.

Even Qi Yun inside the screen made a small "Huh" sound.

Ordinary adults are not very able to think clearly about things in an orderly manner. They are often clear about what is right and wrong on others, but they are always whole when they are placed on themselves, and they are never willing to distinguish.

As a result, now a three-year-old baby girl speaks in a coherent and orderly manner, which is really surprising.

Xu Bao patted Ning Bao's little butt again, and said softly, "Brother, come here, brother to play with you."

Ning Bao didn't know if he understood or not, he just stared at Xu Bao for a while, then rolled down from Ye Jiao's arms, got close to Xu Bao, and gave him the ball of wool.

Ruyi also came up and happily lay down on Xu Bao again.

This made Ye Jiao unable to stop laughing, and she said, "It's actually quite easy to take care of children."

This made Mrs. Mo on the side open her mouth, but there was no way to refute it.

It's true that there are too few children like Young Master Xu... Children from ordinary families are nothing to worry about...

But at this moment, when Ruyi was rolling with a smile, he pulled Qi Yun's clothes on the bed.

Then, Ye Jiao heard a crisp voice, as if something had fallen to the ground.

She looked down and saw a jade flower lying quietly on the ground.

The three children were also attracted, all lying on the side of the bed, clinging to the edge of the bed and looking down, Ruyi and Ning Bao couldn't speak, but Xu Bao pointed with a clear voice: "Flower, pink!"

Ye Jiao bent over to pick it up, put it in her hand, and said softly, "This is a hairpin."

Inside the screen, Qi Yun frowned.

Flowers, hairpins?

Usually Ye Jiao's hairpins are bought by him, it seems that he has never bought a pink flower hairpin for his wife.

Xiao Su on the side wanted to fight, but she was grabbed by Mrs. Mo.

Ye Jiao stood up, fiddled with the jade flower in her hand, and then softly said with some doubts: "This is not mine, but look, it was used by someone, and it is old." After that, Ye Jiao said He subconsciously looked at the screen.

Inexplicably, Qi Yun inside the screen felt that even if he was soaked in hot water, his back was a little cold.

Xiao Su was a little strange. She turned her head and saw that Mrs. Mo was sweating on her forehead. Xiao Su was puzzled and was about to ask, but she quickly responded.

This is the second young master's clothes, and naturally it belongs to the second young master. As a result, a jade flower that is obviously a used woman's hairpin falls out...

Not the second young grandma's.

This, is this going to change?

And Qi Yun inside the screen could hear clearly and react faster than everyone else.

He didn't care that he didn't finish washing, so he got up, wiped it casually, and put on his clothes and came out.

Going around the screen, he saw Ye Jiao and the jade flower in Ye Jiao's hand.

Qi Yun walked over and held Ye Jiao's hand lightly. He didn't say anything to make her believe her words, but said, "You are the only one in my life. If you violate this oath, you will be destroyed."

This oath is very heavy.

Ordinary oaths are especially solemn, because people will believe that these words will one day be fulfilled, and if they are not sincere, few people will use these words to prove their innocence.

Sure enough, as soon as Qi Yun finished speaking, Mrs. Mo, who was in a cold sweat just now, immediately felt relieved.

Xiao Su and Tie Zi looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Ye Jiao never thought that Qi Yun would provoke any peach blossoms. She looked at him slightly suspiciously, and stretched out her hand to cover his mouth: "How can you say such a thing plainly? You can't talk about cause and effect. , what will be destroyed by heaven and earth, you are not allowed to talk about it in the future."

Seeing that Ye Jiao didn't doubt herself, Qi Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and her mind became a little more stable.

Gently pulling Ye Jiao's hand over her, and clasping her fingers tightly, Qi Yun only had the intention to look at the jade flower in her hand.

Qi Yun had never seen this thing before, and it looked like a woman's headgear.

Where did this thing come from?

Qi Yun took two steps forward and looked at the clothes on the bed.

In addition to his own, there is only the coat that Qi Ming lent him.

Qi Yun's eyes turned back and forth between the jade flower and the clothes, and then he only felt his forehead jump.

This thing, not his own, can only be Saburo's.

This kid, is it possible that he has caused some peach blossom debt outside?

The more Qi Erlang thought about it, the more he thought it was possible, especially when he thought that this person never came home for dinner lately, Qi Yun even raised his eyebrows.

Qi Yun tried her best to hold back her temper, kissed Ye Jiao on the face and asked her to sit down first, then Qi Yun released Ye Jiao and turned around while holding the jade flower hairpin.

When Qi Yun looked over, Tie Zi trembled involuntarily.

I saw that Qi Yun's face was sinking like water, his eyebrows were cold, and his voice was much lower than usual: "Tie Zi, go, bring Saburo to me!"
