Chapter 62
The back hall of the Qi family was already lively, but the three brothers of the Qi family were not in the vestibule, but went for a stroll in the back garden.
It is now a good time for winter to spring, and although still feel a chilly chill in the morning and evening, feel warm when the sun shines at noon.
Seeing that the weather was fine, and that Qi Yun was now able to walk around and improve, Da Lang Qi Zhao saw that the banquet almost took his two younger brothers around the yard, thinking that he would count the time to go back later.
As soon as this came out of the vestibule, Qi Ming looked much more relaxed.
In fact, for Qi Jiasanlang, the first place in the county examination is not a title to show off.
He saw and heard as much as he saw in the academy, and there were a large number of first exams in several counties in this small three yuan.
The more it goes up, the more difficult it is, and the county examination is even a threshold.
Although it is a good thing that he won the first place at a young age, for Qi Ming, his road to scientific research is just the beginning, and there is still a long way to go in the future.
It was obviously not Qi Ming's intention to celebrate for a threshold exam.
However, he looked at his parents and attached great importance to this achievement, and Qi Ming could see that most of the people were not coming for him, but in order to have a visit and a lesbian relationship with their own family. The key point was that his father and two brothers, he didn't say anything, and his parents set out to celebrate.
But as soon as the banquet was held, everyone who came praised him so much that there was nothing in heaven and earth, but most of them were merchants. The words of this praise were called fluency and one set of words, and Qi Ming only described him as if he had come down to earth as if he were Wen qu Xing, and Qi Ming blushed.
Now that he has hidden away, Qi Ming can be regarded as comfortable and smooth.
And his series of changes are seen by his two brothers.
Qi Zhao is a straight-tempered man, but after so many years with his brother, he knows something about Saburo's temper.
Just looking at Qi Ming, his face was already red, and he couldn't stay, so he took them out for a walk.
Now looking at Qi Ming's refreshing appearance, Qi Zhao could not help throwing Qi Yun a look in the past.
Qi Yun nodded in cooperation, but smiled and said nothing.
Several people tacitly did not mention Saburo's county examination results, but Qi Zhao was the first to say, "now the sky is going to warm up. When March comes, shall we go out and see the flowers together?"
Although the Qi family is a wealthy family, ordinary people will go out for an outing in the spring, but the Qi family, who has a big family and a great career, has never had such a blessing.
In previous years, it was either because Qi Yun was in poor health, or because he took care of Qi Ming and did not return to school, he was always unable to make the trip.
Now that Qi Zhao brings up the old story again, he is also happy in his heart.
The second younger brother is much better, and the third younger brother has also made some achievements in his studies. as an eldest brother, he has been beautiful in his heart since the Spring Festival, thinking that he should go out and have fun this year.
Qi Ming opened his mouth and said nothing, but Qi Yun understood and said, "I'm afraid the plan for an outing will have to be delayed. The third brother's next government test should be in April. After a while, he will first go to the new school."
Qi Ming nodded again and again, showing some pity on his face.
Qi Zhao is in a good state of mind: "Sorry Saburo, I didn't write down your exam time, but it's also a good time when you finish the exam in May."
Qi Ming also smiled and readily agreed.
On the other hand, Qi Yun talked about his own business: "Big Brother, the wine shop is booming now, but if you want to open a wine shop in the city, I'm afraid there won't be enough wine. I wonder if you can connect with your eldest brother's Chuang Tzu and use our own grain to make wine."
As soon as this suggestion came out, Qi Zhao knew that it was his second younger brother who had promised himself a benefit.
Except for part of the grain to be handed over to the court, the rest of the grain on Zhuangzi was hoarded or sold.
There is a lot of money, but not much.
But if it can be associated with wine-making, even if it is only to provide raw materials, for Zhuangzi, the profit will double.
Qi Zhao had never had this idea before, and he didn't mention it even if he knew the inside story, just because he didn't want to interfere with his second brother's business and didn't want his wife to know.
He knows Fang's temper best. It is easy to talk without money, but as soon as he touches it, his head gets hot, and his words and actions are very different from what he usually does.
Qi Zhao can take care of the usual trivialities, and Fang is sometimes wayward, but he still listens to him.
But if she knew the advantages of the second brother's business, she would probably get hot again.
But now Qi Yun took the initiative to mention that he must have already had a charter. Qi Zhao only asked, "can I go to the open account?" Everything is placed on the table to save possible discord in the future.
Qi Yun bent the corner of his mouth and nodded: "of course."
As a result, the two brothers looked at each other and had an idea for each other.
Although Qi Ming did not understand the business affairs, he still wanted to make some contribution to his brothers. He turned his eyes and said, "the eldest brother, the younger brother has no great ability, but he just has an idea."
"go ahead, Saburo." Qi Zhao always dotes on Qi Ming and smiles softly at the sight of his little brother.
Qi Ming touched his face and sorted out the language: "now this wine is sold, in addition to a taste of wine, but also a provenance." In the past, our jade liquor sold well because of its high quality, but there was no such provenance. "
As soon as these words came out, Qi Yun raised the tip of his eyebrow.
For Qi Erlang, business is good to come and go, and many of him did not think about it carefully. Now that Qi Yun mentioned it, Qi Yun was also extremely intelligent. Saburo was just the beginning, and Qi Yun thought of the result: "it seems that it is time to make up a story for our family's wine."
Qi Ming also meant the same thing, and his eyes turned: "in ancient times, there were a hundred poems about Li Taibai fighting for wine. why not find a sentence from Taibai's poems?"
Qi Yun thought it was a good idea and kept it in mind, saying, "when you ask someone who is good at writing to name you, it will come naturally."
As soon as he spoke the word, Qi Ming blushed.
He is well-read and knowledgeable, and his articles are also expressed in the beauty of the flower group. The Master of the Academy often said that even if the articles he wrote were sent to the temple examination, there would be no difference.
It's just that this handwriting really can't be taken out.
Qi Yun told him that he had practiced it before, and he also persisted in learning a hundred calligraphy every day, but he really could not say that he had made any progress.
However, when it comes to people who write well, Qi Ming still has a choice: "second Brother, among the people I know, the calligraphy of the third Childe is the best. I once talked to him about poetry papers. The third Childe can be regarded as a beautiful man in his chest and a dragon and snake in his pen." it would be best to get his ink treasure. "
Qi Zhao knew nothing about the things done by these literati, and he did not express his opinions, but he was curious to hear Qi Ming talk about the third Childe: "who is that?"
Qi Ming smelled Yan and said with a smile, "he is a brother who once saved my life. He is the owner of the strong man I mentioned to you last time."
Brother Yi?
This word stunned Qi Yun for a moment: "Saburo, you didn't say that you paid homage to the three sons."
Qi Ming scratched his head: "it is also a recent thing. The place of the county examination is not far from the drugstore of Sangongzijia. After the exam came out, I was a little empty. Thanks to his care, I was able to go to his house to rest for a while and regain my spirits. I also talked to him about the questions of this county examination. I happened to see eye to eye with him. I also called him a brother on the spur of the moment, and I didn't worship him."
Among ordinary literati, there are many people who call each other a foolish brother and a virtuous brother, but not many of them really make sense.
After all, scholars despise each other, and the future of these imperial examination students is often heaven and earth.
As soon as you get a gold medal, you will prosper. If you fail, no one will know you. If you tie the knot, there will be some risks.
But what Qi Yun is worried about is not these, but the identity of the three Childs.
Up to now, little brother doesn't even know his family's surname. foolishly paid homage to elder brother. What should do?
I was thinking about it when saw someone running into the garden.
It was Mrs. Liu who looked around in the vestibule. Knowing that the three brothers had arrived at the back, she ran back to look for them. Everyone turned around in the yard, and then she went to the garden to find someone.
Mrs. Liu was not young. She turned back and forth and felt anxious. Now she was sweating on her forehead and dizzy in front of her eyes. When she saw them, she breathed a sigh of relief, holding on to the rockery and gasping for breath. "but …" We can find some young masters. Call. The second young master, the second young master, hurry up and have a look in the hall. "
When Qi Yun heard her name call for himself, he immediately became nervous and said, "Mom Liu, what can I do for you?" But what happened to Jiao Niang? "
Mrs. Liu gasped so badly that she nodded again and again: "Yes, a big event, a happy event.". "
Unluckily, Qi Yun couldn't wait to hear her out. He didn't even listen to the word "wedding". He didn't bother to say goodbye to Qi Yun and Qi Ming. His face changed dramatically, and he strode toward the hall of the meteor.
Mrs. Liu knew he had a misunderstanding and wanted to chase and explain.
But Qi Yun was much better now, and he was nervous about his wife. As he walked, he began to run, and at last he almost hurried all the way into the hall.
As soon as went in, didn't see any tension in it, but it was a piece of beauty.
Dong pulled Meng and Ye Jiao crying and laughing, while Ye Jiao was soft and soft. She pulled by Dong with one hand and stuffed food into her mouth with chopsticks in the other.
Liu, on the other hand, got up with Fang and responded to the auspicious words said by these ladies, with a particularly sincere smile on his face.
And that pair of Zhang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who originally wanted to make trouble and ended up with swollen faces, secretly left long ago for fear of making a joke again.
Li Lang is smiling standing aside, in front of Xiao Su, he said something to Xiao Su one by one, Xiao Su listened to a sentence and nodded, indicating that he remembered it, and listened attentively.
When Qi Yun entered the door, Xiao Su had sharp eyes. He saw that he had saluted Li Lang first, and then trotted over and said, "there you are, second young master. The second young lady is in there."
Tiezi, look at her, you know it's not a bad thing, but you can't think of anything for the sake of Tiezi.
After all, he is a half-big boy, and he doesn't think much.
If at ordinary times, Qi Yun must be able to see at a glance Xiao Su's joy at the moment. He is now full of worries about his own wife. He doesn't even look at Xiao Su, or even see anyone else. There is only Ye Jiao in his eyes, and others seem to be nothingness.
Walking quickly, Qi Yun stood behind Ye Jiao, and when he saw him coming, Meng tugged at Dong. The two smiled at each other, stood up and sat beside them, making room for them.
Ye Jiao was ignorant and unconscious, feeling that her hand had been loosened by Dong, so she was ready to serve tea.
While being held from behind, Ye Jiao was stuffing a mouthful of shrimp cake in her mouth, her cheeks bulging, thinking that the shrimp cake was really delicious, who knew it would be hugged the next moment.
Ye Jiao is very familiar with Qi Yun, familiar with the temperature of this person's embrace, familiar with the rhythm of this person's breathing, and familiar with the smell of herbs on this person.
He didn't look back to know that he was his husband, but Xiao Renshen could feel the tremor on his hands and hear Qi Yun's voice: "Li Lang, what are you doing there?" What happened to Jiao Niang? "
As soon as these words came out, many people looked at them.
Then, they all unconsciously covered their lips and smiled.
Qi Jiajilang's handsome appearance has been spread since the opening of the drugstore, sweeping away his ferocious reputation, and now he has long become a handsome man in the mouth of everyone.
Now look, the rumors are true.
But it is more true than rumors that it is the closeness of their husband and wife.
Look at this nervousness, it really makes others envy to death.
The female relatives present all thought about their husbands, thinking that they should also tell them about it when they went back, so that they could learn from Qi Erlang, the fallen Cai family, and those who saw the sky wanted to find a small one for the family to come in, which finally led to the collapse of the family business.
Liu saw at a glance that Qi Yun still didn't know what had happened. he hid a smile, got up and went over to Qi Yun and said to Qi Yun, "now Jiao Niang is no more than usual. She is a two-body person. Don't always scare her. It's not too late for her to eat it."
Ye Jiao was leaning on Qi Yun's arms, looking longingly at Liu and at the shrimp cake she had bitten half, especially reluctantly.
On the other hand, Qi Yun grasped the key point and was stupefied for a moment, then looked at Liu and Ye Jiao, who was held by himself: "double body?" Niang Niang, you have it? "
Li Lang-Chung also said at the right time, "Congratulations to the second young master, the second young lady, this is a happy pulse. It has been more than two months."
Ye Jiao finally swallowed what was in her mouth, smelled the speech, and nodded, but she didn't think it was a big deal.
Unlike Dong, who has been injured before and whose heirs are difficult, it is naturally inexplicable to have a child now.
But Ye Jiao knows that she has always been in good health, and it is not unusual to have a baby.
In addition, the auspicious flowers have been kept in the house for so long, the furry mass of the little fox can be made into dolls by the auspicious flowers, and it is quite normal for them to have their own.
But this incident shocked Qi Yun a lot.
Before the round house, he only put red dates and longan, but not lotus seeds and peanuts, just because he had no extravagant hope for the fate of his children.
It is an extra blessing to have a mistress to be his wife, but what is there to ask for if he is the only one who has such a body?
It happened that now the child came, so caught off guard, Qi Huan was a little dizzy for a moment.
Just after this run, coupled with anxiety, Qi Yun's body was weak, and he was so surprised and overjoyed that he inevitably felt black in front of his eyes.
But this time, Qi Yun's reason told him that he could not fall down or faint.
This is a good thing, and with so many people watching, he can't let his wife worry.
As a result, he held Ye Jiao, and his body, which was supposed to swing back, stood up straight and came back.
At this moment, others may not be able to see it clearly, but Ye Jiao saw it clearly.
In particular, this person first loosened himself, and then hugged himself, and the little ginseng found a clue between the loosening and tightness.
She immediately stood up, lost her chopsticks, ignored the shrimp cake, and said softly to Qi Yun, "Xianggong, I'm a little tired."
As soon as Liu heard this, he immediately said, "tired?" Then hurry up, go back and have a rest. Erlang, take your wife home well, but don't touch it. "
Ye Jiao responded, seeming to ask Qi Yun to hold her, but in fact she was secretly holding Qi Yun, and when she got out of the door, she beckoned Xiao Su and Tiezi to come over to help.
While Liu watched them leave, there were not only smiles but also tears in his eyes.
It is not that she is eager to beg for her grandchildren. on the contrary, Liu never asks, dares not ask, cannot ask.
All she asks for is her son's health, that's all.
But now the blessing has arrived, and Liu is also full of joy.
But in the end, Liu was calm and stable, covering the corners of his eyes with a veil, and when he looked at the guests, he smiled gently, and others were happy to congratulate the Qi family on their double happiness, and the hall was lively.
After Ye Jiao helped Qi Yun back to the yard, Qi Yun sat on the soft couch, the man's head still a little dizzy.
As a matter of fact, this feeling had not passed for a long time, and his body was getting better and better, so he did not have the problem of being weak and dizzy easily.
But this time is different.
It used to be because of the sadness of infirmity, but now it is because of the joy of freshmen.
Ye Jiao let Xiao Su and Tiezi go out first, while she gently held Qi Yun's hand, and the villain used her own way to make up for her husband.
Seeing that Qi Yun's face gradually changed as usual, he stood up and said, "it's time. I'll bring you some medicine."
Qi Yun has been drinking medicine, one bowl a day, non-stop.
But as soon as she let go, she felt held by this man again.
Looking back in some doubt, saw the man sitting on the soft couch looking at her with his head held high.
Ye Jiao seldom looks at a man's face from this angle. At the moment, the afternoon spring light is just right, softly through the window lattice, reflected on him, warm and gentle.
And Qi Yun gently tugged at her hand: "Jiao Niang."
Only shouted, but did not say what to do, Ye Jiao did not go, turned back and stood in front of him.
Qi Yun gently surrounded the woman's slender waist, leaned his face against her soft belly and whispered, "Niang Niang."
Ye Jiao also replied softly: "mm-hmm."
"I'll take the medicine later." Qi Yun's voice is quiet.
Ye Jiao put her hand on the man's neck and replied softly, "drink if you should, you promised me."
Qi Yun exhaled a breath: "Niang Niang, you are my elixir."
He said this from the bottom of his heart and meant it with all his heart.
He gave him what he had begged and what he had not begged.
Ordinary medicine is a doctor's body, but his wife is a doctor's heart.
Ye Jiao, on the other hand, blinked and hugged Qi Yun tightly: "that's right. I'm your medicine." Anyway, this is how you used to make up for your husband, so you can take a hug now.
While being gentle, Xiao Su knocked on the window carefully: "the second young master, the second young lady, the young master Ye is coming."
Ye Pingrong?
Qi Yun's mood stabilized a lot now. After hearing the words and taking a deep breath, Qi Yun slightly loosened Ye Jiao and stood up and said, "your brother should have come to congratulate you. Go and see him." It just came a little fast.
Ye Jiao blinked, did not answer immediately, but insisted: "you drink medicine first."
Knowing that she was worried about herself, Qi Yun nodded: "I'll drink, but don't take it. I'm going to the vestibule. I'll drink it myself."
He is going to be a father, which is also a happy event. He should go out and take a look around.
Ye Jiao held his wrist and nodded to make sure that the man was really all right.
But before Qi Yun left, he paused at the door and pointed to his face.
Ye Jiao was confused at first, then remembered what Qi Jiao had taught herself before, and obediently put her feet on the man's face and kissed him.
The scene was seen by Ye Pingrong, who was coming into the yard.
With a smile in his eyes, he thought that it would be good for his wife and his wife to be beautiful, but he did not make a sound, and it was only after Qi Yun left that he stepped into the courtyard door.
When Ye Jiao saw him, she smiled and said, "Big Brother."
Ye Pingrong deliberately joked and asked, "what did you do just now?"
I thought it would amuse my little sister, but who knows, Ye Jiao's face was the same and her voice was clear: "the husband said that after getting married, it would be like that if you want to say goodbye."
Ye Pingrong:.
