Chapter 69
byMeng came today not entirely to see Ye Jiao, but more to see what kind of family the Qi family is.
Chu Chengyun was so excited after hearing the plan that Qi Yun talked about last time that he went to tell Meng the whole story that night and looked very interested.
But Chu Chengyun told Meng that it was not only for sharing, but also a habit.
On the family-state affairs, Chu Chengyun had his own idea to let him make up his mind on the imperial court affairs. Chu Chengyun was bound to be able to do things beautifully, otherwise he would not have won the reputation of the wise literati in the imperial court.
But Chu Chengyun is not as considerate as his princess in terms of daily expenses and interpersonal relationships.
Fortunately, Duanwangye has been able to accept this calmly.
Although his mother and imperial concubine died young, he was always raised in the name of the queen, and he was regarded as half of his son. Because the queen had parents and children, no one would think that he could inherit the great unification when Chu Chengyun was a child, avoiding a lot of suspicion, but he occupied half of his reputation as a direct son, and others would not treat him harshly, but let Chu Chengyun's life be free and carefree, so he developed a presumptuous temper.
If it hadn't been so wanton, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to roast fish on the spot behind a thousand carp ponds.
Meng Huirou is different. she grew up in a deep courtyard with strict rules, but she could not avoid intrigue.
The housekeeper's ability Meng Shi learns extremely well, the hidden tolerance method Meng Shi also does well, after marrying Chu Chengyun is to treat him wholeheartedly, thinks for him everywhere, is exquisite in all aspects, thinks about Zhou Xiang.
Chu Chengyun cherished his wife so sensible, because he knew that the price of understanding early can only be achieved by those who have suffered, and Chu Chengyun also respected his wife and was willing to discuss everything with her.
Meng never cares about family affairs.
But everything else, Meng has rules in mind.
As soon as Chu Chengyun came back to talk to her about the caravan, Meng knew that Qi Jia Erlang had a purpose.
But what Chu Chengyun and Chu Chengyun asked for can coexist, and Meng did not say anything.
As Qi Yun thought, the worst thing about Duanwangye and his wife was money, and they would agree to it even if they saw through it.
It's just that Meng wants to see what kind of family the Qi family is.
She had a good relationship with Ye Jiao and had been to the Qi family, but they all went when the Qi family had a happy event, and it was impossible to see the ordinary family style.
Today, Meng wants to follow Chu Chengyun to see what kind of family the Qi family is.
Only when the family style is upright can we bring up good children, no matter what the purpose is, at least be pure and kind-hearted.
Otherwise, his own king will be deceived sooner or later.
When he arrived at the Qi family, Meng nodded unconsciously in his heart.
The back house is peaceful, there is no Ji concubine, there is peace in the house here.
Although most of them are tenant helpers, they are very disciplined in doing things, and they are very good at educating people compared to the host mother.
On the way from the vestibule to Ye Jiao's yard, we can see the fragrance of flowers and plants, as well as the chicken nest and melon shed, looking at the smell of fireworks.
The children raised by such families will not be bad.
Meng walked slowly and smiled gently all the way, and no one could see that her mind had turned several times.
When I entered Ye Jiao's yard, I saw Ye Jiao sitting at the wing table holding a bowl. Meng's smile was a little sharper: "Niang Niang, don't blame me for coming to see you so late."
Ye Jiao saw her come in, but didn't get up. She just smiled and waved: "Huiniang, come, just made wonton, eat a bowl." Then he motioned to Xiao Su to serve a bowl to Meng.
Meng was not hungry, and she had always had little desire for tongues, but she was willing to be close to Ye Jiao, and she was a guest at someone's house, so she did not refuse Ye Jiao's kindness.
However, when the wonton entrance, Meng opened his eyes slightly: "delicious."
She has eaten good food, Sichuan, Shandong, Guangdong, Huaiyang, Fujian, Zhejiang and Hunan. The good cooks of all major cuisines are in the capital and have whatever they want.
But this bowl of wonton is warm and delicious, especially when it is slightly hot, and the soup alone is intoxicating.
Ye Jiao smiled and said, "eat more if you are delicious. Every time I see you, I will put down the vegetables and turn myself into a piece of paper when I touch my mouth."
Ye Jiao said this sincerely, Fang did not eat, she never advised, because her sister-in-law wanted to lose weight, she knew that, even sometimes in Liu's yard, when she saw a good-looking snack, Fang would not deliberately eat more if she did not reach out to save Fang's pain.
But Meng is different. she is already tall and surprisingly thin.
If it is said that Ye Jiao is dry but not fat, then Meng is thin and somewhat distressing.
Meng stirred it in the bowl with a spoon, smiled and whispered, "OK, I'll listen to Niang Niang."
But in her heart, Meng knew that she was not fat. She had been drugged in the early years, and her body was withered. This time, she was running around again, and her body was very weak. Even if she had raised some meat, she would not be able to toss about in such a toss.
However, Meng will not talk about these things, and when she has finished using a bowl of wonton, she will put down the spoon.
Holding the veil to cover the corner of his mouth, Meng smiled and said, "I went to see Chunlan two days ago. She is shallower than you in the month, but her belly is bigger than you."
Ye Jiao was drinking soup when she heard the words and said, "how is Chunlan's body?"
"well, she just misses you, but she's afraid to go out. She's careful." Meng could not help but cover his lips and smile.
Dong is simple-minded, but she used to be reckless, but this time she was very cautious and introverted.
Seeing that Ye Jiao also left the bowl, Meng smiled and said, "some time ago, I thought you hadn't sat down, so I didn't come to disturb you. Now, looking at your health, I feel at ease."
Ye Jiao drank three bowls of wonton. The bowl she used was small, but she felt full after three bowls.
After listening to Meng's words, Ye Jiao gently touched her belly and said, "he is very good."
Meng looked at envy, but did not show it on his face, although Wensheng said: "can you name it?"
Ye Jiao thought that there was still a name, but she never took these things to heart: "if there is a husband, just let him think."
Looking at her completely trusting appearance, Meng unconsciously bent the corners of her mouth.
Seeing that it was still early, Chu Chengyun thought that he would not finish talking to Qi Yun so quickly, so Meng taught Ye Jiao to beat ears.
Ye Jiao knows nothing about these boudoir things, and Meng does not do those complicated troubles with her. It is easier to beat ears, and it is right to get rid of boredom.
The movement on the hand was slow. Meng looked at Ye Jiao's progress and said, "Jiao Niang did a really good job."
Ye Jiao can see that she is not as good-looking as Meng's, but the biggest advantage of little ginseng is that she is willing to learn, and even is particularly keen to learn these things. She always smiles on her face and makes people like it when she looks at it.
Meng also bent the corners of his mouth and sat beside Ye Jiao in a quiet atmosphere.
When Ye Jiao was looking at her work after beating the ears, Meng took out a square box from her sleeve and put it in front of Ye Jiao: "this is for you. It happens to match ears."
Ye Jiao blinked and wondered why everyone gave me things.
Last time Dong came to deliver books, now Meng came and sent them again, which made the little ginseng bear in mind that he could not go empty-handed when he went to see them in the future.
When Ye Jiao opened the box, she saw a piece of warm jade inside.
The whole body is moist and round. When pick it up and put it on hand, only feel very warm and moist.
When she turned it over, Ye Jiao saw a touch of purple on the jade.
The jade of this color made Ye Jiao look familiar, but she didn't know where she had seen it, and she was lost in thought for a moment.
Ye Jiao's silent appearance made Meng think that she didn't know the purple jade, so she said softly, "this kind of purple jade comes from the country of uncle service. It looks no different from ordinary jade, but it is warmer than ordinary jade."
"warm?" The little ginseng turned his eyes to Meng, a little curious.
Meng nodded, stretched out the plain white palm, gently grasped Ye Jiao's hand, and let her fingers clasp the piece of jade.
After a while, felt some warmth in the palms.
Ye Jiao was surprised and could not help but spread out her hand and found that the purple jade was still purple jade, but the temperature above did not dissipate immediately, but maintained for a long time.
It's great to warm your hands.
Seeing that she liked it, Meng said with a smile: "it is said that it is good for the body to wear it for a long time, but I see little purple in this area. You can just take it as a warm object."
Ye Jiao said to Meng, "since it's good for your body, why don't you keep it for yourself?"
When Meng heard the words, he was stupefied: "Niang Niang, why did you say that?"
"you are not in good health. Since there is something good for your body, you should use it tightly first." With that, Ye Jiao reached out and gently grasped Meng's wrist.
In fact, from the first time saw her, Ye Jiao knew that Meng's body was weak.
But unlike her husband, Qi Yun's deficiency is brought out of her mother's womb. He is born weak, so he can't be anxious to nourish it. He needs to come a little bit. But Meng's deficiency is acquired. Ye Jiao doesn't know why, but Meng doesn't say it himself. Ye Jiao won't ask.
But Ye Jiao's words made Meng's fingertips tremble.
She did not know that Ye Jiao could see the clue just by holding her wrist. The first reaction of Meng, who was already nervous, was that this person knew the secret he had been hiding.
Obviously, only you know about this.
But when she looked up at Ye Jiao's pure clear eyes, her vigilance fell apart in an instant.
Meng said to himself in his heart that Niao Niang has always been so simple, otherwise she would not have said it directly, but she was afraid of her concern, and she really shouldn't.
Such a good woman, simple and kind, I still have to suspect her for no reason. I am really sorry for Ye Jiao's sincerity.
Probably every thoughtful person has a special preference for pure temper. Meng soon smiled and whispered, "my body has already been corrupted, and I can't mend it well. Why waste good things?"
Ye Jiao looked at her and pursed her lips.
She didn't get along with Meng for a long time, and she wasn't as close as Dong, but the little ginseng always followed her mind. When Meng treated her well, Ye Jiao would miss her.
Moreover, in Ye Jiao's view, this is not an incurable disease, it is much easier to treat than her husband.
Ye Jiao looked around and saw stone sprouts in her eyes.
Her eyes lit up, went over and pinched a leaf from the sprout grass.
She casually packed a brocade bag and hung her ear on it. Ye Jiao handed the brocade bag to Meng: "I'll take this as a gift in return. I hope Hui Niang is in good health."
As the sprouts were placed on the walltable by the window and turned their back to Meng, Meng could not see what was inside the brocade bag.
Take it over and pinch it, the leaves inside are so small that it feels like an empty bag at this time.
Meng looked at the embroidery above. It was excellent, and the two groups of auspicious clouds were particularly blessed.
Coincidentally, Ye Jiao pulled a good Suzhou embroidery bag, which was also appropriate to give it to others.
Perhaps in the eyes of Meng, who is used to seeing good things, this bag is nothing, but Meng attaches great importance to his sincerity.
She didn't care about embroidery or satin. Only the ear that Ye Jiao beat with her own hands could get into Meng's eyes.
She took it with a smile and whispered, "Thank you, Niang."
Ye Jiao told her, "take it, but don't lose it."
The meaning of little ginseng is to let Meng take it with her, which is good for her body, but Meng feels that this is Ye Jiao's sincerity, so she will keep it in mind.
Put the brocade bag into his arms, Meng gently nodded: "I must take it, will not forget."
When it was about time, Meng got up to say good-bye, but when she went to the vestibule, she did not see Chu Chengyun, and she went straight out of the door and went to the carriage not far away.
Mammy, who waited on Meng's side, looked particularly anxious. Meng went in but did not let herself follow. Mammy waited on the carriage and saw Meng coming back and went down to help her.
Meng's face at the moment did not have the warmth in front of Ye Jiao, it completely belongs to the reserved dignity of all women, with indifference in her eyebrows and eyes.
When he got on the carriage, Meng took out the brocade bag sent by Ye Jiao from his arms and looked at it carefully, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
Mammy was a little worried: "Master, where did this come from?" Don't put away the things outside, it's not good for your body. "
Meng smiled and said faintly, "my body has never been better after being poured down by a bowl of medicine from my mother. How bad can it be?"
As soon as these words came out, Mammy's eyes showed some heartache.
Wang Ye only hangs in the name of the queen, not the birth of the queen. The queen is particularly afraid when she sees that he has a good name, but instead of laying her hands on the prince, she sharpens her princess.
A bowl of medicine made the princess seriously ill. Up to now, not to mention the heirs, I'm afraid she's even broken.
But Meng did not have much sad appearance, is still light, the hand gently touched the brocade bag: "Jiao Niang heart is good, is this world rare pure good mind." I know her, believe her, treat others with reality, not only benefit others, but benefit yourself, Judas. Besides, I haven't trusted anyone for too long. "
Mammy stopped talking, but knelt quietly beside Meng, lowering her eyes and sighing softly.
But the little ginseng in the yard stared at the purple jade for a long time, and finally remembered where he had seen it.
The last time I added the lantern, Qi Yun bought a piece for himself.
That one is purple all over, much more purple than this one.
Ye Jiao reached out and shook it, and sure enough, the palms were warm.
She smiled, saw a hole in it, thought of the method that Meng taught her during the day, and carefully beat an ear and hung it on it.
It's just that Ye Jiao did it herself for the first time, and the spike was not very good-looking and a little crooked.
When Qi Yun came back, he saw Ye Jiao holding an ugly ear and a piece of purple jade that looked familiar.
"what is this? It looks a little chic. " Qi Yun didn't say ugly directly, but asked with a smile.
Ye Jiao said to him excitedly, "this is the ear that Hui Niang taught me to beat. I just learned it."
Qi Yun changed his attitude almost instantly: "have you learned so quickly?" Niao Niang is so clever. "
Ye Jiao nodded proudly, then handed the jade to Qi Yun: "I just tried to hold it warm. Here you are. It's good to keep your hands warm." The voice paused. "you don't have to take it with you. In fact, it doesn't look good to me, but no one can see it when you put it in your arms."
As for the items sent by Ye Jiao, Qi Yun always accepted everything he came, accepted it all according to the order, and then stuffed it into his arms.
The next day, Qi Erlang unexpectedly hung a crooked ear out of the door, looking particularly calm.
In less than a day, the whole family knew that the second young lady had slapped the ears of the second young master.
Although the fight was not good, it was good to have this heart. Liu was also happy to hear this and hurriedly told Mrs. Liu to make a bowl of stewed eggs with milk for Ye Jiao to send.
This made Ye Jiao a little bored: "Why did they know I did it so quickly?" Obviously, no one knows except Xianggong.
Xiao Su stood by and looked at the sky.
The second young master told the young master, and the young master told the young lady.
If the young lady knows, it means that everyone knows.
Qi Yun did not know about this, but when he saw his eldest brother, he heard Qi Zhao say that the ear was not good-looking, so he replied, "this is the wish of my wife, which is heavier than a daughter."
The others didn't say anything, but when he came back from the study, he saw a lot of well-intentioned smiles.
After asking for a little bit, we knew why, and Qi Yun coughed a little.
I didn't feel embarrassed, but there was a smile.
The manager of Song, who was on one side, was happy today. After the matter of the caravan was solved, he would be able to set out immediately, while Jin Shuijiu had a name, and it seemed to be a real success. Now he was happy to see Qi Yun, and the manager of Song was happy to hold him and said, "Congratulations to the young owner."
Qi Yun looked at him and said, "Why are you happy?"
The manager of Song immediately replied, "Wealth is prosperous, and the cases are all good news."
When Qi Yun heard the speech and smiled, his step was slow and his voice was faint: "it is inevitable to raise the eyebrow of the case. As for whether the fortune is prosperous or not, it depends on the plan and providence."
The manager of Song nodded, knowing that he was talking about the caravan.
But without waiting for him to open his mouth, Qi Yun went on to say, "just a little bit, the fact that the third Childe took the silver should not be publicized. After the caravan went out, every account should be clear, and what the third Childe told him to do must be done just as well." Even if you earn less, even if you don't, you should have all the books you should bring with you. "
At this time, the manager of Song no longer asked the reason, and the young owner of his own family did so, answered immediately, and then left.
Before going back to the yard, Qi Yun paused and went to the kitchenette to carry a plate of taro balls.
When entered the door, saw Ye Jiao leaning obliquely on the soft couch, pulling a string of ears on the tatami table.
When she saw him coming back, Ye Jiao got up and stood still in Qi Yun's arms.
Qi Yun naturally knew what she was thinking, smiled, put the food box on the table, opened it with one hand, but did not speak.
Sure enough, Ye Jiao smelled the smell of taro noodles and smiled on her face.
He kissed Qi Yun on tiptoe, sat down at the table, picked up one and put it in his mouth.
Qi Yun sat next to her, watching her eat, feeding water and handing out a handkerchief from time to time, especially gentle.
When Ye Jiao finished eating, he said, "this is your heart. I like it."
Ye Jiao took a look at him. The little ginseng had already eaten the matter of the spike into her stomach with the taro powder dumplings. She didn't remember at all: "what do you like?"
Qi Yun's voice paused, then said slowly, "I like you."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Su silently withdrew from the inner room and closed the door, knowing very well.
Ye Jiao showed no sign of blushing. Instead, she put her hand directly around Qi Yun's neck and replied softly, "I like Xianggong, too."
Qi Yun hugged her gently and felt Ye Jiao's stomach move again.
But Qi Yun did not care this time, but gently kissed Ye Jiao on the lips.
As for the children. Qi Yun squinted his eyes. He had not been born yet. He wanted to say hello to Jiao Niang and waited. He always had to come first and arrive later.
Over the past few months, Qi Yun has been indifferent, dare not touch or move in front of his wife, of course, not now, but can not eat dinner, dessert is always OK.
Ye Jiao never rejected Qi Yun's closeness or even enthusiasm.
Tightening her arms, she pulled the man and bent toward him. The two leaned closer. She seemed to feel tired on tiptoe, and her lips parted when she stood firm.
In front of her was the man's collarbone protruding from his skirt. She looked at it and bit it gently.
At this time, Qi Yun tightened his lips and buried his face in the woman's neck.
It won't take a moment.
"Niang Niang, your breast wiping seems to be a little small and taut."
"Let me touch it."
"."
"it's too small. Let's make a new one next time."
". Niang Niang, it's still dawn. Put on your clothes first. "
"Oh."
But when there were two people, there was the sound of firecrackers outside.
Ye Jiao could not help letting go of Qi Yun. Without seeing Qi Yun's sudden indifference, she just pushed open the window and said to the outside, "Xiao Su, what's going on outside?"
Xiao Su stayed at the door all the time, but she didn't know.
But before she opened her mouth, there was already a loud cry outside: "the good news is coming, and the third young master ordered the head of the case again!" The government tries the first place! "
