Chapter 21 Tea House Discussion

A Yao was thinking about how to decline, when she heard a soft and pleasant female voice behind her, "It's fine if you can't find it."

The woman stood at the door in a green shirt and robe, and the bright candlelight fell on her from above, as gentle and moving as a ray of moonlight.

"Ayao, please step back."

Yao Xuanci's slightly condensed brows gradually relaxed, "It is necessary to take good medicine to stabilize the pregnancy."

She also started to burn incense and worship Buddha.

He stepped up the steps, carefully closed the slightly loose skirt for the woman, and took those cold hands back to the wing.

Thinking of Xing Yunjing's words, Yao Xuanci asked himself to talk more, sounding very gentle, "The old lady is in the Buddhist nunnery, and she will chant for you when she knows you are pregnant. Aqiong should take care of her body, don't worry too muchthink."

"If you're really worried, I'll invite another master doctor to come to the house."

"Doctor Song please?" Wen Qiong looked sideways at him.

The young man pursed his lower lip, his voice was slightly cold, "No."

"There is no shortage of genius doctors in the palace."

She raised her hand and brushed the hanging autumn-colored gauze curtain into the inner room, and said softly, "Then I will listen to my husband."

Wen Qiong walked around behind him, and untied the girdle around his thin waist, seemingly casually, "I heard that the distinguished guests from Dongyuan left yesterday?"

Not only the second girl Zheng left, but Nanny Song also found out that the second girl and the third girl had been arguing over who should move into Dongyuan, and was reprimanded and punished by Mrs. Hou.

She remembered that Dongyuan was the courtyard of elder sister Yao Xuanci.

As for the concubine daughter of the Hou Mansion, Wen Qiong had heard about her recent situation before she died.

During the time when the new emperor ascended the throne, there was news that the husband of the first daughter forced the palace to usurp the throne, but unexpectedly died on the day of his ascension.

His only child became the young emperor, and the prostitute of the Hou family became Beihan's youngest empress dowager.

Now there are only two girls in Hou's mansion, and Mrs. Hou punished her for wanting to live in the sister's yard. Probably Yao Xuanci ordered that no one should be allowed to live in.

The Second Miss Zheng has lived there for quite a while, so it can be seen that her position in his heart should be as important as his first sister.

Yao Xuanci didn't want to mention Zheng Ruyu who pestered him and even spread many rumors, so he just casually hummed, took off the jade crown and put it aside casually.

"You don't have to go to Qin's place in the future."

"White Crow and Mo Ya will take turns guarding the courtyard, just call them if you have anything to do."

Wen Qiong raised her eyebrows slightly, "Okay."

He likes her gentle and demure appearance, so he will show him patiently and obediently until the moment he takes care of everything and leaves.

The lights in the main compartment were on for a long time, and finally went out, and everything returned to the silent night.

The first lane of Qiyun Street, Yongan Tea House.

The guests in the main hall on the first floor were eating tea and refreshments, and watched the dance of flowers and moons on the stage with relish, and people often looked at the pavilion on the second floor.

Wen Qiong was also on the second floor, and the waiter in the teahouse led her to find a quiet and secluded place. The hanging bamboo curtain cut off the eyes. Although she couldn't see the main hall, she could see the bustling street.

Nanny Song was happily obsessed with the task she gave, and only A Yao came out with her.

A Yao looked out of the window and said suddenly, "Girl, do you think that is our son?"

After finishing speaking, she shouted and waved to the man on the street.

Hearing this, Wen Qiong put down the teacup in her hand and looked sideways, only to see Wen Boqing, who was dressed in red clothes, was raising his head, gently shaking his folding fan, his peach blossom eyes met hers with a smile.

There was also a Qingjun scholar standing beside him, dressed in a bamboo robe with azurite and green patterns, he was very elegant, and he turned his head to the side with a smile and said something to Wen Boqing.

She thought to herself, this is probably the Young Master Xu that her elder brother was talking about.

Sure enough, the two found Wen Qiong together, and Wen Boqing sat down unceremoniously, "Ah Qiong, this is Xu Linshu."

With a gentle smile on Xu Linshu's face, he cupped his hands and said, "I've heard of Madam's name a long time ago. I'm Xu Linshu, a native of Suzhou."

"Suzhou?" Wen Qiong was startled.

That's really a coincidence, the Wen family was exiled to Suzhou in the previous life.

"Suzhou is far away from the imperial city. Although it is far away, it is facing the sea. It is a place of trade." Wen Boqing folded the fan and put it aside, picked up the pot and poured a cup of tea, and pushed it in front of Xu Linshu.

Xu Linshu thanked him in a low voice, and the three of them exchanged a few words, and after getting acquainted with each other, they opened up the conversation and started talking about serious things.

"Madam, I have read the accounts of these shops. Some of them are not profitable. I went to that street to have a look, maybe I can change my business."

Xu Linshu took out a few sheets of thin letter paper from his bosom, carefully unfolded it and handed it to Wen Qiong. It was densely packed with small characters.

He talked about his opinions in a soft voice, and whenever Wen Qiong didn't understand something, he drank a sip of tea and explained it patiently.

After the content of these papers was finished, and the pot of tea was finished, Wen Qiong also listened seriously, "I understand Mr. Xu's meaning."

"Since this is the most cost-effective, Mr. Xu will let go and do it." She smiled lightly, and then said, "It is inconvenient for me to go in and out of the Hou's Mansion. If you have anything to do, just look for my brother. The Queen of Yingshan will be divided as you and I talked about."profit."

Xu Linshu heard that the corners of his lips became even more curved, "It's not a problem."

"Ah Qiong, you are so stupid..." Wen Boqing, who was quiet at the side, suddenly sighed.

Wen Qiong looked at him sideways, and saw that he was propping his forehead against the table, his intoxicating peach blossom eyes were full of regret, and he did not shy away from the fact that the person involved was still present, and the folding fan swayed lightly every now and then.

"Xu Linshu has a harmless face, but he comes from a businessman background and has a dark heart."

"This matter of profit sharing, I advise you to spend more time with him."

"Brother Wen, how could you say that about me." Xu Linshu's face was hurt, "My heart is darker than you."

A few small profits tricked him into acting as a cow and a horse for him, and he would be forced to squeeze out his time when he took a breather, a ruthless master.

Wen Qiong was still a bit uneasy, after all, it was his own shop, and it was all handed over to others to take care of it, so he felt a little lost.

Seeing that the two of them are quite familiar with each other now, the tension has been slightly relieved.

She directly picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into Wen Boqing's mouth, then turned her head and smiled at Xu Linshu, "That's all for the profit, it's not a loss for me."

Satisfied, Xu Linshu hummed a little tune in his heart, and secretly glanced at Wen Boqing triumphantly, seeing that he was pouring tea straight down from the sweet pastry, becoming more and more cheerful.

Brother Wen always has a flamboyant and monstrous appearance, but my sister is really in contrast, dignified and demure, with a very gentle smile.

But don't know why, the wife of the eldest son wants to teach this shop to him, an outsider, to take care of it. It stands to reason that there should be a special person to take care of it in the majestic Hou's mansion.

But, after all, he earned it.

Xu Linshu put away the pages of thin paper covered with ink, and stood up neatly, bowing, "Then I won't bother you, I will take my leave first."

Wen Qiong nodded, wiped her cake-stained fingers carefully with a silk handkerchief, and at the same time motioned for A Yao to go over to see her off, A Yao quickly stepped forward and led Xu Linshu away.

At the entrance of the teahouse, Xu Linshu stopped, and said softly to the little girl in the pink shirt beside her, "Young lady Ayao, you don't need to see her off, tell Madam that if she has anything to do, she can come to Changyun Restaurant at any time, and Xu will always be there on weekdays."

A Yao nodded again and again, "Okay, then Mr. Xu, go slowly."

Only then did Xu Linshu take his leave.

After A Yao walked briskly into the teahouse, in front of the spice stall at the entrance of the teahouse, two women, one blue and one white, turned around and looked carefully at A Yao's back.

Bai Que put down the ointment in his hand, and said softly, "Shall we go in and see if it's the maid next to Wen's, and don't mistake her again."

"No, it's the little girl Wen's dowry." Lan Que was 100% sure that Wen's was in the teahouse, she threw a few copper coins and put away the ointment.

"You can hear clearly, the man said that he will always be there, waiting for Wen at any time, the friendship is so deep..."

She snorted slightly, "This Wen family is so quiet on weekdays, a married woman dares to have a private meeting with a foreign man."

"Let's go, let's tell the girl to go." Blue Que held Bai Que's arm with one hand, and lifted the hem of the skirt with the other, "Wen Shi dares to do this, Yao Shizi has a reason to divorce her, and the emperor will not blame her at that time."

Bai Que was not dazzled by this matter, so she hurriedly grabbed her, and said cautiously, "We just listened to it. According to me, let's go in and see the facts first. If you make a wrong guess, let the girl speak in front of the prince.How can I make a fool of myself?"

"No, you and I have stayed in the Hou's Mansion, maybe the little maid has seen us." Lan Que disagreed with her hips crossed, she pondered for a while, then raised her brows suddenly, and turned her eyes to the teahouse again.

"I'll go to the waiter in the teahouse and ask."

After saying that, Lan Que lifted her skirt and walked into the teahouse. As soon as she entered, the sharp-eyed Xiaoer noticed that she put a white scarf on her shoulders and walked over with a teapot.

Getting closer, Xiao Er saw that the clothes on her body were not made of ordinary fabrics, and hurriedly said, "Miss, do you want a private seat on the second floor?"

Lan Que directly dragged him to a corner, handed him a few pennies backhanded, and lowered his voice, "I ask you, is there a gentle lady on the second floor with a little maid in a pink shirt?"

It's no coincidence, it was this Xiaoer who led the past, he put the money into his arms, "Yes, I'm sitting in the west corner, someone came to see this lady just now, it's..." the two young masters.

"Okay, you just go ahead." The blue bird felt a little stuck again, and turned and left impatiently.

Xiaoer happily held the unexpected money in his hand, the blind old man under the bridge said that he would go out with his left foot first, and he would definitely get rich today, and it was true!

Upstairs, the half-draped bamboo curtain has been completely lowered, and only the swaying figure inside can be seen clearly, and a girl in a pink skirt is quietly guarding outside.

The storyteller in the main hall on the first floor has been replaced by a piano player, and the faint sound of the piano slowly floats into the ears.

The tea cover landed on the palm-sized tea bowl with a crisp sound. The woman clasped the tea cover with her white knuckles, shook the tea bowl a few times and then tilted it slightly. The light blue tea that had washed the tea leaves was poured out.

Wen Qiong washed the tea unhurriedly, and said softly, "Brother has always said that he can help me complete the reconciliation, but he hasn't told me what the method is."

She pinched the tea lid and lifted it, Wen Boqing poured the white water with his cooperation, and poured the scalding boiling water back into the pot, the tea leaves rolled and floated on the surface of the water as it stretched out.

The Baishui teapot was placed inside, and the young man in Danyi shook his folding fan again, with a hint of ridicule in his sentimental peach eyes, "Why, Arjun can't wait?"

"You can't do this, you have to be patient."

"That's not true." Wen Qiong is currently taking care of herself carefully to ensure that the child in her womb is safe and sound, but it has been a long time, and her brother's plan has not been revealed at all, so she is very curious.

Seeing Wen Boqing staring at her all the time, she had no choice but to tell the truth, "I'm just afraid that my brother's plan is not thorough enough."

Will Yao Xuanci tolerate her leaving the imperial city with his child?I'm afraid would rather leave the son and go to the mother.

If this matter fails, she dare not imagine the consequences.

Wen Boqing squinted his eyes, and resisted the urge to slap him with a fan, "Your brother is the explorer of this scientific expedition, why don't you trust me?"

Wen Qiong sighed, "I hope my brother can directly erase my existence, so as not to cause any trouble."

Now it was Wen Boqing's turn to be surprised, "Ah Qiong actually wants to escape?"

Then his original plan would have to be overturned.

Wen Qiong nodded, "In this way, others will never find me again."

She can live the rest of her life with peace of mind.

But... the tip of the fan lightly tapped on his chin, and the young man in Danyi pondered for a moment, "Is there any way for Arjun to die?"

The author has something to say:

If there is any knowledge involved in this, it is all the author's nonsense
