Chapter 106
Wu became stupid all of a sudden.
When she came back, in fact, she had already thought of a lot of countermeasures, that is, no matter what method she used, she had to gag the Qi family and begged his Lordship to spare their mother and daughter.
Wu thought very well, the evil seed in his daughter's belly naturally could not be left, but the daughter's life had to be saved.
Although there is no Qi family this marriage, but when the daughter's body is well, during this period, the Qi family so that they do not dare to speak, and then find a good family for the daughter.
In the final analysis, the Lu family has a big family and some people have the backing to make decisions, so there is no need to be afraid that the Qi family will talk nonsense outside.
But now, the pillars in the capital have collapsed, and all the things Wu thought about just now have been in vain.
This time her legs were really weak, and she sat down on the ground directly, her eyes a little dazed: "my lord, how did this happen?". No, the adults in Beijing are Sanping.How can they be ousted? "
Even though the younger generation of the Lu family is grumpy and unable to carry things up, the uncles and relatives of the older generation still know how to advance and retreat.
"Don't say that again. This time you caught up with the emperor's rectification of officials, affecting many officials, including former courtiers and former empress feathers. We adults only demote him to his place of origin rather than copy his family and destroy his clan. It is already because he is old and weak and shows mercy outside the law. "
When Wu heard this, he knew that there was no room for change.
She couldn't help trembling and turning pale, because Wu knew in her heart that if she had no backing, she would no longer have the ability to threaten people, and the big Lu family did not rely on it except for an empty shell and flower shelf!
The money, the New year's gift, the respect of others, and the decency of the Yamen are all gone.
As far as Wu is concerned, all these can be ignored for the time being. the most important thing for her now is that in terms of family ability, the Lu family with empty shells is far from the Qi family with shops everywhere.
Now that the position is reversed, the Qi family still has something to do with it. As long as the Lord Lu's dismissal is known by the Qi family, then what happened tonight …. I'm afraid the paper bag is on fire, and you can't hide it for half a minute.
The owner of the Lu family also saw the difference of the Wu family. If it can be said that the Wu family is worried about the future of the Lu family, then the performance of the Wu family is a little strange now.
He couldn't help standing up and asked in a deep voice, "you just went out of the house alone. Where have you been?"
Wu opened her mouth. She wanted to say that she had gone to Fang, but she was afraid to say that her husband had gone to Qi to confirm what she had done. Wu also wanted to say that she was just going for a walk, but what did she go out in the evening?
When he was stunned, the master of the Lu family immediately looked at the woman next to Wu.
The woman was originally timid, but just now she was more and more nervous at the scene of catching the rape, and now she was scared to the ground at a glance.
The master of the Lu family was now convinced that Wu had something to hide from him and raised his eyebrow. Now the Lu family could no longer have any twists and turns, so instead of looking at Wu, he called someone in: "go and drag this woman down to fight." when to tell the truth and when to stop! "
The woman was frightened and said hurriedly, "my lord, my lord, I'll tell you everything!"
Wu sat paralyzed to one side, listening to the mother-in-law confess, staring at the surprised or disgusted faces of the Lu clan uncles, and finally, her eyes were on the eyes of the Lu family master.
The master of the Lu family felt his blood stuck in his throat and his ears were buzzing.
The daughter had sex with people without a medium, and was pregnant with evil seed. The wife wanted to harm the Qi family, and she was caught raping on the spot.
Bitch, bitch!
But when he didn't scold him, he rolled his eyes and pouted over.
In the Qi family, however, it was calm.
Qi Yun got all the deeds of the land deeds on the mountain a year ago, and went to the Yamen to pass the paperwork, which completely turned the mountain into his own property.
It took Ye Jiao a long time to accept her identity as the mistress of the small land. the mountain was so big that she didn't finish walking for a few days. Seeing that she was going to go to the root of the year again, and the wind was strong on the mountain, Qi er and her family first went down the mountain to get busy with the Spring Festival.
To do the math, this is the third year since Little Ginseng became a human being. compared with the previous millennium, three years is nothing, but for Ye Jiao, it is probably the happiest three years for her.
What is happier is that there will be many more three years in the future. can't help laughing at the thought of Ye Jiao.
At this moment, Little Ginseng was having tea in Liu's yard. When Liu saw that she was laughing with herself, he couldn't help asking, "is there anything happy about my wife?"
Ye Jiao smelled the words, looked up at Liu, and then cleverly replied, "I just think that the day is good, the husband is good to me, and the family is very good, so I feel happy."
Liu couldn't help but cover his lips and laugh out loud. There are not many people who can directly take these things out. Most of the bitterness and sweetness in everyone's heart is hidden in their hearts, but their own two daughter-in-law can say it sincerely, and people feel like it when they hear it.
On the other hand, Fang said another thing: "I really heard a good news this morning."
Ye Jiao smelled the words, looked at Fang, and said curiously, "what?"
With a little mystery on his round face, Fang whispered, "I heard that the Lu family committed a crime by relying on the mountain and was sent back by the emperor to cut his job for the people."
Ye Jiao couldn't help blinking when she heard the words. She thought for a while before she remembered, "is it the Lu family of Miss Lu Qi?"
"Yes, just their house."
This is not to blame for Ye Jiao's bad memory. Since the last time she found out that Miss Lu Qi was pregnant, Qi Yun said he would handle it. Little ginseng always trusted Qi Yun. After hearing what her husband said, she left the matter behind.
If Fang hadn't mentioned it, I'm afraid Ye Jiao would have forgotten it.
Liu turned the bead string on his hand and said slowly, "this is a catastrophe for the Lu family, but it is really good for us."
In fact, Fang breathed a sigh of relief. last time, relying on a cavity of anger and Qi Erlang's guarantee, she dared to find the bad luck of the Lu family and happily watched a good play of catching adultery, but when she got home, Fang began to worry.
On the one hand, he ate too much tea. In order not to gain weight, Fang spent a long time and wronged his mouth.
Second, the backer of the Lu family is a three-grade official. If the Lu family really wants to break the net, they may not be able to get any bargains.
Now that the backer of the Lu family has fallen down, Fang doesn't care why he finished. Fang only knows that those bastards of the Lu family can finally get out of their lives.
In Fang's own words, even if Wu's mother and daughter hung up the southeast branch now, she would not feel sorry.
But this kind of happiness can only be thought about in the heart, Fang will not say it, because it was Qi Yun who planned the drama, and it was himself who went to do it, and his mother-in-law and sister-in-law should be completely unaware of it.
As a sister-in-law, it is necessary to contribute to the family. If there were other things, Fang would have come back and said it countless times for fear that others would not know what he had done, but Fang did not want to use this matter to be a good boy in front of his mother-in-law.
My mother-in-law is old, and Jiao Niang is used to being a coquettish temperament, so it's not good to scare them.
So Fang's happiness was quite restrained, and she tried not to laugh too presumptuously: "my mother is right, it is really good for our family, especially since Saburo is now preparing for the local examination. Without the entanglement of the Lu family, Saburo will certainly be able to study hard."
Liu nodded, smiled and looked at Fang and Ye Jiao, but instead of talking about the Lu family, he changed the topic: "I asked the gold shop to tie two collars, stone and Xubao each, and they were delivered today. It just so happens that you take it back and give it to your children to try."
Mrs. Liu took a tray, put it on the table and lifted the red cloth.
Inside is a big and a small two collars, pure gold, because it is not too thick to hang around the child's neck to avoid too heavy pressure on the doll, but it is hollowed out and wrapped in silk, and the technique is excellent, so it is not cheap.
Fang's eyes lit up as soon as she saw it, and Ye Jiao was attracted by the two shining collars.
Liu smiled and said, "the big one is stone, and the small one is Xubao's. Do you like it?"
Fang and Ye Jiao reached out and held the collar in their hands. When they heard the words, they both nodded again and again.
Liu turned the Buddha beads in his hand and said gently, "also, the family is going to invite a church party for the Spring Festival this year, and it hasn't been decided what to sing yet. if you like it, just go back and write down your name and give it to me."
Ye Jiao remembered that Qi Yun had said that he would hire a theatrical troupe, and when she heard this, she knew that it was Qi Yun and Liu Shi. But although Ye Jiao wanted to see the play, she didn't quite understand it. At best, she looked at Fang and said, "Sister-in-law, I can do anything."
Fang did not evade it, smiling and said: "since it is the Spring Festival, then sing some noisy, point drama things my daughter-in-law will do well."
Liu smiled and said a few words to them. Seeing that it was getting dark, he let them go back.
When the two left, Liu went into the small Buddha hall and knelt on the futon, but he did not chant the sutra or knock on the wooden fish, but quietly turned the Buddha beads in his hands.
After a while, Liu whispered, "Ma Liu, is there really something wrong with the Lu family?"
Mrs. Liu, who stood by, replied, "Yes, madam, something really happened. I don't know exactly what it is, but the master of the secret bachelor did fall down, and if the Lu family had been all right, they wouldn't have carried the seven girls into the Wu family as a concubine."
When Liu heard the words, he could not help but move the corners of his mouth.
In fact, Liu knows what Fang and Qi Yun do.
Fang thought he was hiding it from himself, but when Qi Yun asked Liu's wife to go with him, he told Liu's own plan.
Liu knew it from beginning to end.
What's more, Mrs. Liu has been following, even if some details are not clear, Mrs. Liu will make up for her.
Liu never intervened or asked, and she never even worried, because she knew best that her second son, Qi Yun, would not have broken his face if he had not been fully sure.
It's just that Fang tried to hide it because he was afraid of worrying. Liu remembered the kindness of his daughter-in-law and was happy to pretend not to know.
However, now that the dust has been settled, Liu asked a few more questions: "is that Lu Qi girl's child still there?"
"I don't know, but it doesn't matter if she's here or not. the only daughter has become a concubine, and Wu is afraid to be too ashamed to go out for the rest of her life." With a slight meal in her voice, Mrs. Liu said, "it is a pity that it is cheap for the Lu family. After all, the second young master was kind and did not publicize what had happened before. Otherwise, if people knew about the scandal that had corrupted the style of the family, how could there be any fate?"
Liu is particularly calm: "Jiro has a plan, this is dishonorable, even if we didn't do anything, but even if it caused a foul smell, it's not easy to get rid of it." Now that it is clean and Saburo is not involved, it is the best result. "
Mrs. Liu had seen Wu's face with her own eyes that night, but she was still a little aggrieved: "just leave them alone?"
Liu, on the other hand, is a slight movement in the corners of his mouth and a faint voice: "Don't worry about them."
If you say Qi, Liu is angry.
Before, she would be angry with Zhang because Zhang always talked about Qi Yun's body and pierced her heart every time he said it.
Now she is angry with Wu because she wants to touch her third son, or in an almost humiliating way.
Now that Wu's daughter, Lu Qi, has become a concubine for Zhang's son, Wu Dalang, Liu feels that he doesn't have to see them for a while. This is what really makes Liu feel comfortable.
After turning the Buddha beads in his hands, Liu said gently: "in this world, it has always been the soft knife that is the most abrasive." Fortunately, both of my daughter-in-law are good, and the band and music are the rarest. "
Ye Jiao, who was praised by Liu, was soaking in the bathtub at this time, slowly sprinkling petals to herself.
The sound of lifting the water sounded like a patter, across the screen into Qi Yun's ear.
As usual, Qi Erlang must maintain a serious look, bypass the screen and do something conducive to physical and mental pleasure with the excuse of sprinkling petals on his wife.
But this time Qi Yun was red and restrained his impatience, sitting cross-legged on the soft couch, lighting a candle and flipping through the letters on the tatami table.
This letter is a letter from home sent by Ye Pingrong from Beijing, but this time Qi Yun seemed particularly serious, and when he replied, he was considering every word.
Probably because he was too serious, Qi Yun did not find that Ye Jiao had stepped out of the bathtub, wrapped in a thick robe, and walked curiously behind him.
It was not until the drops of water dripping from Ye Jiao's hair knocked on the back of Qi Yun's hand that he regained his senses.
Turning his head, the man fell in love with Ye Jiao's Yingying eyes.
It is now the twelfth lunar month, and it is cold outside, but there is white charcoal in the house, and it is very warm.
Ye Jiao was wrapped in a robe and didn't feel cold with her collar wide open. From Qi Yun's point of view, she could just see her wife's apricot breast and a large expanse of snow-white skin.
But the little ginseng looked at him with clear eyes: "Xianggong, what are you doing?"
Qi Yun's ears turned red again, and he especially wanted to hold his fragrant little lady in his arms, but Qi Yun just took a few deep breaths, reached out and spread the cloth towel hanging beside him on his lap, and then said to Ye Jiao, "lie down. I'll wipe your hair. Don't get cold."
Ye Jiao heard the words and lay down obediently on Qi Yun's leg. this was not the first time that Qi Yun had wiped her hair. Little ginseng was given a gentle wipe by her husband.
Qi Yun's movements are very gentle and meticulous.
He always treated Ye Jiao like a treasure, even if he only wiped his hair wet, he was very gentle every time, for fear of touching any one of them.
Ye Jiao opened her eyes and looked around with some boredom, and finally fixed on the letter that Qi Yun saw half of it. She asked curiously, "are you answering a letter to your brother?" Ye Jiao remembers clearly that Qi Yun would use this kind of gold ticket only when he wrote to Ye Pingrong.
Qi Yun nodded and stroked the tip of Ye Jiao's hair and said, "Today's letter is very important. You have to weigh your words carefully."
"what can I do for you?"
"this letter is not only for the eldest brother, but also for the emperor." Qi Yun never hid anything from Ye Jiao, and it was the same this time. "the caravan was the one who paid the money. what we discussed before was a thirty-seven share of the account, but now that the caravan has come back and gained a lot, I'm going to ask him if I still want to give him this profit."
Just this sentence, Qi Yun will not directly ask Chu Chengyun, but will ask Ye Pingrong.
Anyway, judging from the results of previous correspondence, Ye Pingrong knew everything would tell Chu Chengyun and asked himself who was the same.
Ye Jiao was a little puzzled: "since it is negotiated, will he still not want it?"
Qi Yun smiled and said gently, "this is different. If he is only a king, then I will certainly give him this money. But now that he is an emperor, does he compete with the people for profits? if he takes the money this time, if he takes it, our family is a sure imperial businessman." this is a big event, and he naturally has to consider it. "
Ye Jiao nodded. Ye Jiao never took care of these things, so she didn't ask any more questions.
Qi Yun felt that Ye Jiao's hair was half dry, so he put the cloth towel aside, picked up Ye Jiao's head oil bottle, poured some out on his hands, rubbed the palms of his palms together, and then evenly applied it to Ye Jiao's hair. the belly of his fingers is still gently rubbed on his wife's scalp.
It was very comfortable to knead like this, and Ye Jiao's eyes narrowed slightly.
At first, Ye Jiao helped Qi Yun press, but later Qi Yun learned to press it for her, which made Ye Jiao laugh comfortably every time.
Qi Yun then said, "in addition to this, I have to send something to that person. I promised him the map I agreed on before, and I gave him a thank you gift for those grain seeds."
Ye Jiao could not help looking up at him.
This time the caravan brought back a lot of things, including animal skins, herbs and gems, but what Qi Yun valued most was the seeds.
No one knows what seeds can be planted, but they are edible and grow fast, if they can really grow things, it will be a huge profit.
Now Qi Yun wants to send out the seeds, which is a generous gift. I think Chu Chengyun has been a great help. Ye Jiao couldn't help asking, "what are you thanking him for?"
Qi Yun slightly bent the corner of his mouth: "Thank him for helping us solve a big problem, especially when I didn't ask for it, so he helped. Naturally, we should be doubly grateful." The voice paused. "I'll send him the big characters that Saburo has recently learned. I think that person will also be happy to see it."
In fact, from the beginning to the end, Chu Chengyun only told Qi Yun that the official style of that adult Lu was not correct and was going to be cleaned up, and nothing else was said, but this sentence was particularly important to Qi Yun.
Ye Jiao's concern is not here: "Xiang Gong, we saved that emperor before, why don't you just say something if you want him to help?"
The logic of Little Ginseng is very simple, that is, the most basic cause and effect to be followed as a monster.
If there is a cause, there will be a result, and if there is a favor, there will be a reward, as is the case with all things directly.
However, Qi Yun explained softly: "We are kind to him. It is true that the kindness of saving lives is valuable, but many people who take kindness in return do not come to a good end." What's more, it was an emperor, and no matter how good his temper was, he would inevitably feel that I was blackmailing me with kindness, which would inevitably lead to a grudge. Only when we wait for his own help, we will be grateful in return, so that the relationship can last. "
Ye Jiao listened and felt that she could understand every word, but she didn't understand it when put together.
Her mind is simple, even though she is now focused on learning to be a human being, it is always difficult for her to learn.
Little ginseng could not help saying, "Xianggong, this is very difficult. I don't understand."
Qi Yun, on the other hand, bowed his head, kissed Ye Jiao on her soft lips and said with a smile, "it doesn't matter if I understand."
Ye Jiao raised her body slightly, gently bit Qi Yun's lips, and murmured in her voice, "the husband is so nice."
Qi Yun did not deepen the kiss, but let her go after a little time.
Dragging Ye Jiao to the chair next to the charcoal basin, Qi Yun said, "you can't have Rest until your hair is dry."
Ye Jiao nodded obediently, and then saw that Qi Yun did not accompany her to roast the fire.
The man turned and took the gold paper and ink on the couch back to the table, sat down, cut the candle core, and then picked up a pen to write a letter.
The villain held his chin and looked at him with a smile in his eyebrows.
In fact, in Ye Jiao's mind, Qi Yun is very good-looking at any time.
But over time, Ye Jiao felt that this person was particularly handsome when he was focused on doing things.
That eyebrow, that eye, even the arc of the broken lips, can hook the heart of the person with a jump.
Just want to pull over and kiss, taste it, watch his ears turn red and listen to his shortness of breath, which is probably one of the great joys of little ginseng.
Qi Yun did not know that his wife was staring at him and thinking of something beautiful, and he obviously attached great importance to the letter.
Although Qi Yun does not really expect to be sheltered by the Ninety-five, some relationships are better than nothing, and he has to grasp every word and hide all his true thoughts in the meddling between the lines.
When he finally finished writing the letter and put down his pen, he saw Ye Jiao stand up with him at the same time.
Then, without waiting for Qi Yun to react, Ye Jiao trotted in front of him and sat directly face to face on Qi Yun's lap.
This change really caught Qi Yun by surprise. He subconsciously supported the back of his wife so that she would not fall, but he hugged Ye Jiao more tightly into his arms.
Ye Jiao, mixed with the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, and the fragrance of bath beans, probably because just after the fire, Ye Jiao was warm and fragrant, and the little ginseng smiled and hung his arm around the man's neck and looked up at him.
Qi Yun looked down at her and asked softly, "what's the matter?"
Ye Jiao pulled him by the neck, leaned over and kissed him on the chin, and said, "today Xubao sleeps with his mother."
As soon as these words came out, Qi Yun understood what Ye Jiao meant.
He could not help but gather Ye Jiao into her arms and said in a slow voice, "I have just finished writing a letter.". "
In fact, what Qi Yun means is that the letter he has just written has not been put away yet, and it is always difficult to wrinkle it. It is only interesting to go to bed.
But Ye Jiao got the wrong idea. She loosened Qi Yun's jaw and her eyes were clear and clear. "I've studied the effortless method that my husband said last time," she said. "
…… What effortless way?
Qi Yun has forgotten what he said, but Ye Jiao obviously hasn't forgotten.
She felt that the husband was tired of writing a letter today. last time, she promised Qi Yun that if the husband was tired, the tired things could come by herself. when she came back, Little Ginseng studied hard and finally achieved results.
Seeing that Qi Yun was silent, Ye Jiao leaned over and took down a book from the shelf behind Qi Yun.
No accident, it's that four-word book again.
Ye Jiao searched carefully with delicate fingers, and finally fixed it on one of the pages. Then she turned the book over to Qi Yun and said, "that's it. I found it. Xianggong must not be tired like this. You just sit and I'll do the rest."
But Ye Jiao did not wait for Qi Yun's response. When she put the book down in front of Qi Yun, she saw that her husband's face was as red as if she had knocked over cinnabar.
Ye Jiao hurriedly lost her book, reached out and held his face, and wanted to get up: "what's the matter with you, husband?"
Qi Yun pulled Ye Jiao's arm down and asked her to sit on her lap again.
The man felt that his heart was like a roar, and his ears were full of banging voices, but he tried to make his voice more serious: "my wife learned it more deeply than I did."
Ye Jiao was praised and her eyes bent with a smile.
Then he listened to Qi Yun's hoarse voice: "Please don't hesitate to give me advice."
"good."
It was just that Ye Jiao regretted it when she really got it up.
She came up on the chair and went to the bed again. By the time * * gradually ceased, Ye Jiao didn't want to move a finger.
Before falling asleep, the little ginseng gently hammered Qi Yun on the chest and murmured, "tired, next time I won't come, you come …". "
Qi Yun took her by the wrist and kissed her. With the other hand, he patted the woman on the smooth back and coaxed her on Rest.
As to whether or not to come in the future, we'll talk about it then.
The letter written by Qi Yun was sent to the capital the next day. A few days later, when Ye Pingrong got the letter, she only glanced at it and entered the palace, and then gave the letter directly to Chu Chengyun.
After Chu Chengyun read it, he picked an eyebrow and said, "Why don't I want my money?" Yes, of course! Go and tell Jiro now that you can't send me a penny less. "
