Chapter 87
Qin Chu raised his lips, and his eyes lingered on Qiu Jinning's face: "Our family doesn't have so many rules. Just now, Guan Zi said that Daddy went to the wine pavilion to settle accounts early in the morning, and I will drink your tea in two days."
Qiu Jinning nodded lightly, but didn't realize what it meant to drink her toasted tea after two days.
It wasn't until nightfall that she was bewitched several times by Qin Chu before she fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, she just woke up, and before she had time to look at the sunlight outside the window, her eyes darkened, and the spring//feeling reappeared, and it was night again in a blink of an eye.
In the darkness, Qin Chu curled his lips and got up.
The little sister was very considerate, not only gave her a big gift, but also granted Qiu Jinning a seven-day wedding leave.
Seeing that two days have passed, how could she be willing to let go of this good time.
In a drowsy state, Qiu Jinning's hands were gently lifted, and something was wrapped around her wrists. The cool and heavy feeling also bound her ankles.
She frowned, opened her eyes slowly, looked at the person in front of her, and couldn't help showing a reassuring smile: "Qin Chu, what time is it?"
Under the flickering candlelight, Qin Chu's eyes shone with a dense light, deep and dark.
"Hey, it's not dawn yet."
"Well-Qin Chu-"
Tears soon stained/wet the corners of the eyes, and the imprisoned weakness of the hands and feet magnified the five senses.
The sobbing sounded throughout the house, stop/stop/slow/slow.
Qiu Jinning closed her eyes heavily, as the sun and the moon alternated, she didn't know what day and night it was.
In the yard, Guan Zi was sitting on the pony tie, knocking on melon seeds and sighing, "Young maid, Young Madam hasn't been out for five days."
In the past few days, except that three meals a day were brought in as usual, and the hot water was changed from time to time, all the ladies came in and out, and Qiu Jinning didn't even show her face.
Is the wedding day so good?
It made her yearn a little...
Lu Yao gave her a blank look: "Anyway, there are still two days off. The master knows the days, so why are you so careless?"
Guan Zi glanced back and fell into self-doubt. The master may know when it is, but the young lady has never seen her get out of bed. Do you really know?
The sixth day, noon.
Qiu Jinning raised her eyelids, looked at the person who was still asleep beside the pillow, smiled softly, her hands and feet had regained their freedom, she sighed softly in her heart, she really couldn't indulge this person day and night without rest.
She got up, got dressed, and got out of bed.
But his feet swayed weakly, and there was a strong pain in his waist, accompanied by a sense of discomfort in his body.
She took a deep breath, stood firm, turned her head and glanced at the sleeping person, rubbed her waist silently, and walked to the door.
The cool air is dry and fresh from the sun.
It makes people feel a long absence.
The sun shone on her face, warm and melting, reflecting her eyes that hadn't seen the sun for a long time.
Qiu Jinning blinked, and called Lu Yao over: "Pack up your things, it's been three days, it's time to go back."
It's noon when go back home three days after the wedding, so parents should be in a hurry.
The corner of Lu Yao's mouth twitched, come on, the fat maid is really not just worrying about it, the master is sleepy, really don't know the time.
After receiving the order, she went to prepare for the return ceremony, and it took two days to be considerate and did not bring up the return. Fortunately, the master and madam didn't care about it, and only said that they would go back someday when they were free.
She's afraid that if she mentions her life, miss, no, the young lady will be ashamed.
Her master's face has always been thin...
On the carriage, Qin Chu rubbed Qiu Jinning's shoulders for a while, and her waist for a while: "I can go alone, please don't follow, I'm so tired."
She really wanted to stay in bed with Qiu Jinning for the rest of her life, not thinking about anyone or anything, only thinking about the person in her arms.
Qiu Jinning lowered her eyes, said "um", and slowly fell asleep again, she was indeed extremely tired.
This person has been tossing and tossing for three whole days, and he must not let Qin Chu fool around when he goes back tonight.
After entering the door, Mrs. Qiu took her daughter back to the room to talk, and Liuqiu's servant entertained Master Qin and Qin Chu's father and daughter in the hall.
"Jin Ning, it's not your mother who said you. You can't do whatever you want after you get married. Don't take it seriously when you're young. You have to take your time."
Qiu Jinning's cheeks flushed, and she responded softly, "Yes."
Mrs. Qiu held her hand and looked at her non-stop: "Have you calmed down? It's time to go to court tomorrow. Let's rest at home today and accompany your mother."
Go to court?tomorrow?
Qiu Jinning looked confused for a moment, didn't she take seven days of marriage leave?Did something happen in the hall?
Before she could ask, she froze on the spot because of Mrs. Qiu's next words.
"Qin Chu is also a careless person. The student who returned to the door after three days has been delayed until today. How can she return to the door in six days? You can't let her temper go in the future. You have to take care of it when you have to. If there are no rules, you can't do it."
Mrs. Qiu babbled to her daughter, but she didn't notice that the drooping daughter's expression suddenly changed, she just thought her daughter was shy when she came back from newly married.
Qiu Jinning pursed the corners of her lips, her face was inexplicably embarrassed, and her heart was full of shame.
It's the sixth day...
That guy is really, really messed up...
But even if it was messed up, she was the one who let it go, and she was the one who was unwilling to refuse, and followed Qin Chu one after another...
That night, Mrs. Qiu still didn't leave her daughter behind. It was because Qin Chu's little eyes were too wronged. As soon as she saw her, she changed her mind without a future.
My heart is so soft, how can do it, how can handle people in the future.
On the carriage back to the Qin Manor, Qin Chu said with lingering fear: "When I heard that your mother wanted to keep you overnight, I was so worried. I was afraid that we would only get married if you agreed. How could we separate, ouch-"
Before he could speak, one ear was pinched and twisted by someone's fingers.
"Tomorrow will go to court, how can you - you disciple, don't do this in the future, even the time to return to the door is late."
There was tenderness in the blame words, but the fingers still couldn't bear to use force.
Qiu Jinning relaxed, and helped Qin Chu rub his red ears.
Qin Chu gave a low laugh, hugged her and kissed her again and again: "Jinning, don't you know it's the sixth day? You can't blame me. You didn't ask when you came. How could I know that you don't even know what day it is?"Know."
Qiu Jinning bit the corner of her lips, buried her head in silence, her face was full of embarrassment.
She really can't do anything about this person.
Fortunately, Qin Chu knew that she was going to court tomorrow, so it was rare for her to be honest at night.
On this day, after leaving the Golden Luan Hall after going to court, Qiu Jinning looked at the Imperial Doctor Han who was waiting for her at the gate of the palace, and was startled for a moment.
Doctor Han handed her a medicine bottle, cupped his hands and said, "Prime Minister Qiu cherishes it, if you feel unwell, just take a pill, and I will take my leave."
He turned and shook his head, walking heavily.
Thinking of the day before the Empress Seal Ceremony, Qiu Jinning came to visit unexpectedly, and after listening to his diagnosis, he asked for a few words.
"Han Yuyi, please don't tell anyone about this matter. If Qin Chu asks, tell her that Emotion Gu is dead, thank you."
Hey, what a glorious woman, even the heavens are jealous, and don't want to keep her in love with the world.
Qiu Jinning looked at Han Yuyi's back, silently clenched the jade bottle in his hand, and put it away carefully.
On the imperial street outside the palace gate, Qin Chu stood in front of the carriage and waited for Qiu Jinning. Ever since they got married, she would come here to pick up people every day according to the time.
"I just saw Doctor Han talking to you. Is he okay with you?"
Qiu Jinning lowered his eyes, his eyes flickered, and said calmly: "It's nothing, I just happened to meet, let me say hello."
She held Qin Chu's hand tightly, got into the carriage and nestled deeply into Qin Chu's arms.
"Qin Chu, I miss you."
The corner of Qin Chu's mouth lightly raised: "I'm thinking of you too, good boy, we'll go home right away."
It's different after getting married, Qiu Jinning has become extremely dependent on her, pampering her every night, as if unwilling to leave the bed, wishing to be obsessed/entangled in everything all the time.
Back at the mansion, Qiu Jinning simply ate dinner and went to the study.
Qin Chu waited in the room until he fell asleep, and finally got up and went to the study to find someone.
"Jin Ning, no matter how important things are, they can't be done overnight, take your time, does our Prime Minister Qiu know that the body is the most important thing?"
She walked over, stretched out her hand to rub Qiu Jinning's temples, and persuaded him gently.
Qiu Jinning slowly closed her eyes, enjoying the tranquility of this moment.
After a while, she held Qin Chu's hand: "Okay, you go back to your room and wait for me. I'll come when I finish writing this point."
There are too many things she wants to do, but too little time...
Seeing that she was still writing, Qin Chu deliberately revealed a look of resentment: "Prime Minister Qiu is so busy with business that he neglects his beloved wife."
Qiu Jinning stopped writing, looked fixedly at the people around her, and said thoughtfully, "What do you think of the saying 'a woman who has no talent is a virtue'?"
"It's not good." Qin Chu blurted out, and then added, "I know it was not intended to belittle women, but people in the world spread rumors, and it has only been used so far, and only the literal meaning is left. Using such a sentence that deviates from the original intention to praise women, itโs really not that good.โ
What kind of woman's ignorance is virtue, imprisoning women's vision, tying up women's footsteps, making them unable to read and write, and living in the back house, only knowing that their husbands are heaven and their children are the most important, and they are full of men superior to women, it is simply hatefulpole.
Qiu Jinning slightly curled her lips: "When I first heard it when I was young, I didn't know too much. Later, I read more books and understood many things. I also felt that women should keep their own place and that women are talented but those words that hurt women's morality are not only harmful.It's unfair and unreasonable, but even though I knew everything at that time, I couldn't do anything, so my original intention of studying hard and dedicating myself to an official position was to overthrow this misinterpreted statement.No one should be superior to another, especially not based on gender."
Qin Chu nodded: "It should be like this. They are all old dross words. The person who made such words should be tied up and hung on a tree, and the pot should be whipped every day."
Qiu Jinning smiled: "So, the first step is to enable women all over the world to be able to read and write, not only wealthy families and rich ladies can have books to read, His Majesty has already agreed to use part of the tax to exempt young children from school, regardless of genderYou can only study at the age of fourteen, but it is still a bit difficult to implement, especially since the daughters of poor families can work as hard as an ordinary man, most of them think that it is useless for girls to study."
She closed her eyes with a sad look on her face.
"Don't worry, take it step by step, aren't you just a living sign? Who said that women's studies are useless, can't they still govern the country and the world? Speaking of which, I have an idea. I can set up a reward, and a certain amount will be awarded for each exam.Girlsโ brains are no worse than menโs, if women who study hard can get rewards and go home, no matter how ignorant their parents are, they will not force them to go home and work.โ
Just like modern scholarships, at least some people who suffer from lack of money to continue their studies due to poverty in their families can be exempted from this worry.
Something flashed through Qiu Jinning's mind, and he quickly picked up his pen and wrote, while writing, he said, "This method can be tried, but Baiyue officials have learned a lot, and this expenditure is not a small amount."
Qin Chu watched her finish writing, and then suggested: "It doesn't have to be all paid by the imperial court. In the capital, you can ask upstairs to take the lead first, and donate all my 20% bonus, and our Qin family can also donate money for the neighbors."The schools in the two prefectural cities offer this reward, as long as the imperial court rewards it symbolically, the gentry from all over the place will flock to it in order to gain the enviable name of everyone."
This kind of thing often happens in modern times. Today you donate a building, and tomorrow I will set up a scholarship. The court saves money and worry, and the rich are called good.
Qiu Jinning's eyes brightened slightly, and she had a thought. Things don't come in a hurry, but they can be pushed slowly and step by step. One day, the general environment will be changed and become what they expected.
Qin Chu quietly accompanied her by the side, refilling ink and pouring tea, until late at night, the two returned to the room holding hands.
Lying on the bed, she kissed the corner of Qiu Jinning's eyes: "Go to sleep."
But the people around got into her arms, pulled her collar with slender fingers, and whispered bewitchingly: "Qin Chu, take a rest tomorrow."
Qin Chu held her hand and said distressedly: "Aren't you tired, good boy, take a good rest."
Qiu Jinning buried her head in front of her chest, as if she had been fighting in her mind for a long time, the knuckles holding Qin Chu's collar were slightly hard, and they turned white.
She stretched her arms and covered Qin Chu, her cheeks blushed, her eyes were affectionate, blurred and seductive.
"Qin Chu-I think-"
A murmur fell on the bed, knocking down all Qin Chu's sanity.
The two changed positions in an instant, and the person who was lying down arched his body and looked down.
The person above was lying on his back on the bed just now, his eyelids were lightly/trembling/closed, and while his red lips were/moving/moving, he couldn't hold back broken sobs, and sobbed.
Qin Chu was distressed that she was tired recently, so she could click as much as she wanted, but the person in her arms wanted more abnormally.
Qiu Jinning hugged her neck and responded again and again.
"Qin Chu-I want-"
The tone was mild, with a hint of forbearance crying.
A few simple words are more effective than giving Qin Chu several layers of love gu, making her unable to stop.
It made her wish she could die right now, in Qiu Jinning's arms.
Qiu Jinning wants to-
She couldn't bear to let go-
I can't bear to let this person whisper to me-
The night got deeper.
The red candle in the room flickered, burning out the last ray of light, and fell into darkness along with the earth.
And within the bed curtain, sobbing and whispering continued.
No rest, no stop, no stop.
"to speak"
Add more in advance, see you tomorrow~?
