Five skirts, one by one, were laid out side by side. Lan Xiang smiled with comfort, but Liu Qiqiao was really stunned. It was like opening a tailor's shop, colorful and brightly colored skirts. It was something she had never had before.
"Auntie, the eldest master also said that this is wronged auntie!" Lan Xiang said.
Liu Qiqiao said hurriedly: "No wronged, no wronged!" For a long time, knowing that this was not a dream, she gently pulled up a pale yellow silk skirt that she had never worn in her entire life. I picked it up and rubbed my cheeks lightly. It was so soft and soft, smooth and smooth, not too beautiful to be true...
The fact that Liu Qiqiao was awarded five skirts quickly spread among Shen Yunong's wives and concubines.
There is popularity, some people disdain, Zhou Haitang said in his mouth, there are only five skirts, what is so great, but in his heart, he is going crazy. Recently, the father-in-law has not been close to her, and has been taking the new aunt, swaying inside and outside the house. , And also took her to play in Zhuangzi. The people of the Shen family saw this in their eyes, and everyone was spreading it. The new aunt was very happy with Shen Yunong.
Before Liu Qiqiao came, Zhou Haitang was the most popular aunt. Now, seeing Liu Qiqiao take her own place, how could she not be anxious.
Shen Yunong didn't care too much. Although he was drunk that day, he was not unconscious. When he woke up, he gave Liu Qiqiao five skirts in one breath, and that Liu Qiqiao thanked him bluntly.
He felt funny looking at Liu Qiqiao’s petty look, but he became anxious again in a flash. If he was in his previous temperament, the ten rings would have been clearly laid out and sent over. , But, now, he is afraid that Liu Qiqiao will mention the ring again, he can get it, but, with the embarrassment of the family now, he has to keep the money as a capital, he will never be willing to be in this farmhouse. Live like this for a lifetime.
Shen Yunong thought that he still had money and property in his heart, and it was not difficult to maintain it like this. The ten acres of land, just relying on the rent paid by the tenant farmers, can also be enough for their family. Live it.
However, he didn't want to be like this, rewarding a concubine, and still shrinking his feet.
He had recovered from his illness, and he knew his family's property thoroughly. When nothing happened, he began to trace the seven shops that his grandfather secretly left him.
That day he called Liu Qiqiao over and screened the people back. He took out a pen and paper and asked Liu Qiqiao to recite the seven poems.
Liu Qiqiao was proficient in memorizing, but Shen Yunong was puzzled. He didn't know which words and sentences he wanted to write.
"You didn't memorize it wrong, did you?" Shen Yunong asked.
Liu Qiqiao hurriedly nodded: "It can't be wrong, I remember it in my heart several times a day!" She knew the importance of these things, how could she forget them. Sometimes in my dreams, I'm all memorizing them.
Shen Yunong nodded: "Yes, it's you!"
Liu Qiqiao smiled lightly. She saw what Shen Yunong was thinking with the pen, she didn't go into it, she just looked at the four treasures of the study on the table.
Liu Qiqiao has grown up till now and has not touched a pen, let alone the square inkstone on Shen Yunong’s desk, the pinewood carved pen hanging, and the cat-shaped sapphire pen holder on the desk, even more so. Let Liu Qiqiao like it. She picked it up. The sapphire kitten was naive, and the jade was of good quality. It was in her hand and not slippery.
Shen Yunong thought for a long time, but he didn't have a clue. When he was about to put down his pen, he found that Liu Qiqiao was holding the jade pen and studying, watching her tilt her head, looking left and right, and looking at the outside. Shen Yunong couldn't help being amused by the bright light, "What did you see?"
Liu Qiqiao likes these gadgets. At first sight, he couldn't put it down. Suddenly, when she heard Shen Yunong's question, she was busy putting the little jade cat gently on the desk.
Shen Yunong picked up the pen and took a look at it. Such a common thing is even as curious as Liu Qiqiao. He smiled and handed it to Liu Qiqiao: "If you like it, take it if you like it!"
Liu Qiqiao shook his head hurriedly: "Master, I don't want it!"
"Don't you like it?" Shen Yunong asked.
"But, it's useless if I take it!" Liu Qiqiao answered truthfully. The four treasures of the study are useless to him.
"Yes, you don't write, it's useless to hold it..." Shen Yunong put it down, "You have to memorize it, you can't forget these poems!"
Liu Qiqiao nodded seriously.
Shen Yunong said: "Qiqiao, you can recite the first song slowly, and I will copy it out!"
Liu Qiqiao memorized word by word, and Shen Yunong followed Liu Qiqiao's memorization, looking for homophonic words and wrote it out, not knowing whether it was right or wrong, he finished writing, and put his pen in annoyance. Grandfather was very cautious, but he was embarrassed. He couldn't guess what these unreliable words mean by putting them together.
Liu Qiqiao looked back at Shen Yunong's writing for the first time. After finishing writing, Shen Yunong looked up and saw Liu Qiqiao nodded as he looked at it, as if approvingly.
Shen Yunong couldn't help but smile: "Didn't you say you don't know each other? Do you understand?"
Liu Qiqiao shook his head: "Although I don't know the characters, they are written well or badly. I can recognize them. The characters Xianggong are written very well. Just look at them... Jun!"
Shen Yunong was amused by the word she had. After smiling, he pointed to Liu Qiqiao's head and nodded: "You girl is really funny..." But he suddenly realized that he could do something: "Right, Do you want to learn to read?"
"Recognition?" Liu Qiqiao asked.
"Yeah, I am at home now, and there is nothing to do anyway, it is better to find something to do, and I will teach you how to read!" Shen Yunong said.
Liu Qiqiao was startled: "Really!"
Shen Yunong stabbed her forehead: "What did I lie to you for? See how you are stunned!"
Liu Qiqiao put his tongue out and said embarrassingly: "I'm stupid..."
Shen Yunong smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, my husband is smart!"
After finishing talking, he went to the bookshelf to look for it. After searching for a long time, he found a copy of "The Poems of the Tang Dynasty". The books here are limited. For the time being, he will take this one and pick some simple ones to teach Liu Qiqiao.
This afternoon, both of them were in the study room. Lutong and Lanxiang were sitting outside the window. From time to time, they heard Shen Yunong's reprimanding Liu Qiqiao's voice in the room: "Stupid, why are you so stupid? , This should be written like this, horizontal and vertical, horizontal and vertical, do not understand... "
Lu Tong and Lan Xiang looked at each other, then both covered their lips and smiled.
"Forget it, I will only teach you to write your name today. Look, I wrote it, Nuo, this is your name, Liu Qiqiao, are you optimistic about what I just wrote? Come on, try to write it! "Shen Yunong said, took another pen from the pen holder, dipped it in ink, and handed it to Liu Qiqiao.
Liu Qiqiao looked at the three words written by Shen Yunong, and portrayed them like cats and tigers.
Before finishing the description, Shen Yunong had already used the pen as a ruler and hit the back of Liu Qiqiao's hand.
Liu Qiqiao sneered with pain, shrank his hands, with tears in his eyes, looking at Shen Yunong, thinking in his heart, this gentleman is too cruel.
Shen Yunong has always had limited patience. He didn't want to happen on a whim, but it was difficult to do it like this. He didn't want Liu Qiqiao to be ignorant. It would be impossible to church all at once. He only thought about such a simple thing. After a long time how to say it, what Liu Qiqiao wrote is still crawling like insects.
"Forget it, you practice it yourself! I have to go and walk, otherwise, you will be mad!" Shen Yunong said, shaking his hand and walked out.
Liu Qiqiao put out the pen, the back of her hand was a little red, and she was slandering Shen Yunong's cruelty, but her vigor came up. She put aside the words written by Shen Yunong and copied it over and over again.
"Liu Qiqiao, this is Liu, this is seven, this is a coincidence, Liu Qiqiao..." she said in her heart as she wrote. She knew her ignorance of big characters was also one of the reasons why those aunts laughed at her. Now that she has a chance, she must learn it.
Shen Yunong was strolling outside. He subconsciously avoided Zhou Haitang’s yard. The other aunts said that Zhou Haitang was too tired and crooked. Originally, he liked her seductive look and when she was no one. Fleeing, teasing, slutty personality to oneself. However, now, he really has no blessing to accept the favor of the beauties, and the medicine is taken, but he does not know how effective the medicine is and whether his hidden illness can be cured.
He strolled into the courtyard of Huangfu Haoyue.
There were some vegetables in this yard. After Huangfu Haoyue came, Wan'er called a few maids, pulled out those vegetables, raised some flowers and plants under the window, and moved a large water tank over and raised a few in them. The little carp was again in the north of the yard. It was worth some bamboo. The greenery was flickering. When Shen Yunong came in, it was like walking into the courtyard of Shen's mansion and Huangfu Haoyue.
Two big maids stood under the eaves and saw Shen Yunong coming in and were busy saluting. One went in first to give an announcement, while the other opened the curtain and waited for Shen Yunong to walk in.
The maids here are all from Shen's mansion. They are usually familiar with Shen Yunong. They are both the dowry maids of Huangfu Haoyue back then. There were four of them who were carefully selected into the mansion. Wan'er has always been. Huangfu Haoyue's right-hand man, Zi Yuan was carried away by his aunt in the second year of her dowry. The one who is now uncovered is called Qinger, and the one who went in to communicate is called Hongshan.
Shen Yunong smiled and said to Qing'er: "How is your master lately?"
Qing'er pursed his mouth and was happy. Shen Yunong was usually not big or small with them, and followed them, but was carried away by his aunt because of the purple kite. Qing'er had always been selfish, hoping that one day, he could be I lifted my aunt, so when I looked at Shen Yunong, there was a charming look in his eyes, "The master is okay, it's the master, you haven't come here much, it's better to be in the Shen mansion..." As her master said, but her resentful expression was like complaining for herself.
Shen Yunong smiled, bowed his head and walked in, and said casually: "Isn't this here?"
Qing'er smiled behind him, and when she looked up, she saw Wan'er helping Huangfu Haoyue walking out of the inner room.
Seeing Qing'er smiling so hard, she knew that she must have hooked up with the master again, and Wan'er gave Qing'er a fierce look.
