Chapter 26

Views:

The last time she and Qi Yun slept together, Qi Yun's fiery flames rose, and it took him nearly a month to disperse in the room before it was cleaned up. Ye Jiao really didn't want him to come back again.

The little ginseng was anxious and didn't care about anything else, so he leaned over and lay on Qi Yun's body, holding the man's wrist firmly, not even daring to breathe, and closed his eyes slightly to feel his pulse .

She was afraid that her pulse would be inaccurate, so Ye Jiao leaned over and gently touched Qi Yun's neck with her hand. Behind her ear, she felt the slight beating of her fingertips.

She rubbed his neck for a while, until Ye Jiao was sure that Qi Yun's body was fine, and she was relieved.

Thinking about it, the last time Qi Yun had a high fever was because Ye Jiao was too rash to make up for him. Now that several months have passed, Ye Jiao has been paying attention to getting along with Qi Yun. Much better before.

Looking at it now, even after being together for so long, there is no such thing as a situation where there is no need to make up for it, Ye Jiao is really relieved.

After she was relieved, Ye Jiao's arm that had been supporting it relaxed, and her soft body lay directly on the man.

She stretched out her hand and poked Qi Yun's chin, thinking to herself, fortunately she didn't have a fever, even if she scared herself for nothing just now, it would be fine.

Leaning her head on the man's chest, it was fine at first, but soon Ye Jiao could clearly hear his heart beating several times faster.

Ye Jiao thought that the pressure made him uncomfortable, so she propped herself up and sat up, carefully covering the cup for him.

Seeing that the sky was already rising, the little ginseng put on the coat lightly and got out of the bed, without waking Qi Yun, slowly falling down the thick curtain on the bed, and then went down to the ground and rekindled the charcoal basin. When the room warmed up, she pulled up her hair and left.

But as soon as Ye Jiao walked out of the inner room, the man lying on the bed opened his eyes.

Yesterday, because Ye Jiao was leaning against him, Qi Yun was reluctant to wake up his wife, so he carried her to the bed after the woman's hair was dry, and lay down beside Ye Jiao himself. fell asleep.

This night, Qi Yun slept very well.

No dreaming, no convulsions, Qi Yun seemed to feel what is called black and sweet dreamland for the first time in his life.

He slept soundly and of high quality, which made Qi Yun wake up earlier than usual.

Who knew that as soon as he woke up, Wenxiang Nephrite was in his arms, making him stiff.

Although they were covered with the same quilt, Qi Yun remembered clearly that the two of them lay down and slept well before going to bed, there was a distance between them, how could he know that after falling asleep, he couldn't help himself, and when he woke up, he felt his wrists. caught by a woman.

Qi Yun didn't open his eyes, and he couldn't tell whether he was afraid of embarrassment or whether he wanted to keep this tenderness longer. In short, Qi Yun chose to pretend to be asleep, but Ye Jiao didn't notice it.

And when the woman was lying on top of him, Qi Yun could even smell the sweet scent of osmanthus on her body.

It's sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus again, obviously I didn't eat sweet-scented sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus yesterday... Yes, Ye Jiao's hair oil seems to be scented with sweet-scented osmanthus, so she bought it for her.

I thought about some messy distractions in my head, but I still couldn't control my heartbeat.

Until Ye Jiao left, Qi Yun still felt the thumping noise in his ears, and his mouth was inexplicably dry.

Taking a deep breath, Qi Yun sat up, but he lowered his head, lifted the quilt and looked inside, the man quickly lay down again.

In order to prevent Ye Jiao from seeing the strangeness, Erlang of the Qi family prepared to lie down more by himself.

Compared to Qi Yun's nervousness, Ye Jiao seemed much more at ease and in a good mood.

He was able to spend a night with himself without fever, which was obviously the result of his body getting better.

What Ye Jiao has been looking forward to the most is the health of her husband. Now that Qi Yun's body is improving, Ye Jiao is naturally happy.

After combing her hair into a bun, she picked out a lilac-colored robe and put it on. Ye Jiao saw that it was still early, so she went outside to look at the newly planted medicinal flowers.

As soon as he went out, he saw Mr. Fang standing by the courtyard gate holding a stone.

Ye Jiao hadn't seen Mrs Fang for a long time, but when they met, Ye Jiao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law got up early." Then she reached out her hand and gestured at Xiao Shi Shi, " Shi Shi, my name is Auntie."

Stone immediately answered crisply: "Auntie!"

Fang Shi also smiled and nodded to Ye Jiao, looking very friendly, and said with Ye Jiao: "Mother said that the end of the year is coming, and everyone wants to talk about the Chinese New Year together. I'll come with you here."

Ye Jiao heard the words and said, "Sister-in-law, go to the small room and wait, drink some tea to warm up, I'll come right away." After speaking, she turned and went down the corridor to greet Xiaosu.

Xiao Su trotted to Ye Jiao: "Second Young Mistress."

"Where are the two pots of auspicious flowers that I brought back yesterday?" Ye Jiao asked, looking both ways.

Xiaosu pointed to the wing room: "That flower looks very delicate. Yesterday, the second young master asked me to put it in the wing room. I'm afraid it will freeze in the yard."

Hearing this, Ye Jiao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she was fortunate to have her husband, and she forgot about the auspicious flowers for a while yesterday.

She took Xiaosu to the wing, squatted down and touched the red and bright petals of the auspicious flowers, and found that they were still wilted.

This flower should grow in water, but it will naturally not grow well if it is buried in the soil.

Ye Jiao stood up, looked left and right, and pointed to the big fish tank: "Can I use that one?"

Xiao Su originally wanted to ask what to do, but suddenly thought of the fact that Qi Yun had flattened the whole garden for Ye Jiao a while ago, she immediately closed her mouth, and nodded repeatedly: "Second young grandma can do whatever she wants, if you want. Did I lose the fish?"

Ye Jiao was stunned when she heard the words, and then smiled: "No, what are you going to do if you throw it away? If you throw it away in this weather, you will most likely freeze to death, so just keep it there. You can take these two flowers out later, Don't break the roots, just shake the soil and put it in. Also, don't put it outside, it's not good if the water freezes, so it's better to put it in the house."

When Ye Jiao was still a little ginseng, the auspicious flower was called Fengyuan flower. It could live on its own when placed in water, without needing to be manipulated. It could grow wildly on its own with a little sunshine and a little temperature. Dong's species did not survive because it was placed In the soil, just like the stone sprouts before, buried in the soil will always live soon.

After hearing this, Xiao Su nodded in response. Ye Jiao gave a few words of advice. She didn't want to let Mrs. Fang wait any longer. 's.

However, Mr. Fang did not stay in the small room, but wandered in Ye Jiao's yard, the more he walked, the more frightened he became.

Fang has also been to this yard before. She is not a talented girl who is familiar with poetry and books, but she is also a person who likes to enjoy flowers and scenery. Even if she is extremely afraid of Qi Yun, she is very fond of Qi Yun's aesthetics in the layout of the yard. definitely.

In particular, there are two precious chrysanthemums in Qi Yun's yard, "Purple Dragon Lying Snow". The petals are orange on one side and bright yellow on the other. They look especially rich and beautiful. Today, the Fang family came here to count these two plants and thank them if they don't look at them again. Only after walking around a distance, Yue Ye Jiaotong went to find Liu Shi.

Who knows, when I look at it, I find that the yard has changed a lot!

Not to mention "Purple Dragon Lying in the Snow", the other flowers have disappeared, replaced by some wild flowers that Fang thinks are strange.

The flowers are small and grotesquely shaped, making it difficult to look elegant.

This made Fang shi's eyes feel a little distressed. Seeing Ye Jiao coming over, she asked, "Jiao Niang, why has your yard changed?"

Ye Jiao was holding the hand stove in her arms, and she said with a smile, "I wanted to plant some medicinal herbs, so my husband asked someone to push the yard."

… pushed

Fang's eyes widened, looking at Ye Jiao, she thought how could such a good girl be such a loser!

Ye Jiao smiled again: "The medicinal herbs are still useful. Those flowers and plants are good to look at, but the husband's body can't help them, so it's better to plant some good ones."

Fang Shi was probably so distressed that he lost the rules when he spoke: "Second brother just wants to go to the pharmacy.

If it was before, Ye Jiao would have smiled, she never took it seriously to anyone other than Qi Yun.

But yesterday, after seeing some disputes in front of the wine shop, and listening to Qi Yun talk a lot at night, Ye Jiao also figured out some flavors.

She is lucky to have met a good husband. As for others, Little Ginseng feels like a goblin that can eat people and save people, and this person is not all kind.

Some things should be said.

Ye Jiao looked at Mrs. Fang, her voice was as soft and gentle as usual: "Sister-in-law, this is Xianggong's yard, and this is what Xianggong wants to push. If sister-in-law likes to see flowers, you can go to the garden, where the flowers are also beautiful."

The little ginseng felt that she was inexplicable. The husband said before that it was their own yard, and it had nothing to do with others. What was the big sister-in-law feeling

But Mrs. Fang was probably used to Ye Jiao's always soft and soft appearance, so she didn't think much about it, just happened to Shishi shouted beautiful to the plum blossom beside her, saying that she would pick it up and bring it to her aunt and aunt, which made them all laugh. Coaxing the stone to look at the flowers, he soon forgot about pushing the yard, and the two sisters-in-law arrived at Liu's yard in peace.

Today, the Liu family called the two daughters-in-law to come together to discuss the New Year's affairs with them.

Looking at the end of the year, there are a lot of things to prepare at home.

Not to mention the money given to the tenants, just the mats, fireworks and firecrackers to be prepared at home, sewing new clothes, etc., these are all money like flowing water.

The Qi family is a wealthy family, but they have always been kind people. They never criticize their tenants. They give a lot of silver at the end of the year, and as a wealthy family, they pay a lot of money from top to bottom. paddle out.

Usually, the family never treats their own family members badly. They give food and clothing as much as they can. The more money comes in, the faster they go out.

Mrs. Liu turned around the beads in her hand, her eyes rolled on Ye Jiao and Mrs. Fang's faces, and her tone was gentle: "This year, there are many happy events, Erlang married Jiao Niang, and the stone stood still, and whether it's Zhuangzi or the shop these days It's all better."

Ye Jiao had a smile on her face, while Fang was thinking that it was impossible for her mother-in-law to call them here just for compliments, so she held the stone and pretended to tease him with snacks. In fact, her ears were erect. , listen to Liu's next words.

Afterwards, I heard Mrs. Liu say, "But next year, Zhuangzi and the shop will open a new one, so I'm afraid there won't be enough money in the account. I discussed it with the master yesterday, and the family is in good shape. There are many happy events this year, so I have to open two more tables. In addition to the money on the book, do you two have to pay some money? According to the income at the end of the year, each family will pay 50% of the income, and 1/20, okay?"

Because it was a matter of the house, Mrs. Liu asked the two daughters-in-law's opinions first.

Ye Jiao felt that there was nothing wrong with this suggestion. These days, Qi Yun had already told her about the Qi family's situation little by little, and Ye Jiao had a bottom line.

Now that the family is together, all the snacks I eat are made in the small kitchen. Moreover, Mrs. Liu said that the family will pay to build a shop next year. Little Ginseng thinks that it would be good to bring some money out at the end of the year for a lively event.

But Mr. Fang didn't think so.

Her temperament, in common words, is that "if you don't pick up money when you go out, you will lose it".

The heart is not bad, it is just digging, and the head is full of cares.

In her opinion, Qi Yun's shop is completely different from Qi Zhao's Zhuangzi.

Before the wine shop had a lot more revenue, Fang Shi attributed it to an accident. After all, who can stay closed all the time? The shop has been calm and quiet for so long, and occasional outbreaks are normal.

In the final analysis, it is Zhuangzi who makes money, and if he wants to make money, he will probably make more money from his own family.

Before the end of the year, Mrs. Liu would sometimes ask this question. At that time, Mrs. Fang was staring at Qi Yun. At that time, Mrs. Qi was thinking about waiting for death every day. When he came out, Qi Ming had no spare money when he was studying, and he would not let Qi Zhao out for a bowl of water.

Now that the shop is rich, my mother-in-law actually remembered this stubble again, and she came according to the proportion.

Zhuangzi earns money, if it really counts as one out of twenty, isn't he at a loss

In fact, taking out half of the income from the income is not a lot of money, and Mrs. Fang is not short of a little money, but she is not comfortable. She feels that she has lost more than others, and she feels uncomfortable when she loses.

So, Mrs. Fang looked at Mrs. Liu eagerly, and asked in a low voice, "Mother, can you change it?"

Liu Shi glanced at her: "Change what?"

The small abacus in Fang's heart crackled, and he said in his mouth: "Don't do anything about 20 to 1, it's better to do this, the two families have the same amount. It's all filial piety. After a pause, "I will tell Dalang when I go back. We will pay as much as the second brother will pay, and there will be no less."

It sounds like it's for the good of the second brother, but what Fang Shi thought was that this would not be a loss to himself.

According to Fang's view, Qi Yun's side will not have much income. By comparison, they can not only fulfill Liu's desire for a bowl of water, but also reduce their own income, killing two birds with one stone.

Fang Shi never thought that Qi Yun's shop would surpass Qi Zhao's Zhuangzi. This possibility did not exist in Fang Shi's heart.

Liu Shi actually knew the business of the two companies best, but she didn't say anything, but turned to look at Ye Jiao: "Jiao Niang, do you agree?"

Ye Jiao has always been well-behaved in front of the Liu family, and replied: "My husband told me to listen to my mother, and if my mother agrees, I will agree."

Hearing this, Mrs. Liu nodded, and then looked at Mrs. Fang deeply. Without explaining anything, she said warmly, "In that case, just do as you said."

Fang Shi's round face smiled brightly, thinking to himself, it's good to save another fortune.
