When Ye Jiao and Zheng arrived in the vestibule, Shi was already sitting and talking with Shi Tianrui.

This is the first time that Shi Tianrui came back after he left Beijing. When he saw him, he was filled with tears and choked with sobs, and he was not calm and capable at all.

Shi Tianrui looked at her both distressed and sorry. When Shi got married, he was still a scholar and did not get any personal fame. At that time, he felt that Wenmin Song treated Shi well. Shi also put a heart on Wen Minsong, and Shi Tianrui nodded.

Later, when Shi Tianrui was lifted, Wen Minsong's treatment of Shi became better and better. who could have guessed that it was a white-eyed wolf who had criticized his skin.

Until Shi Tianrui left Beijing, he did not know that Wen Minsong had acted like this.

Shi's mouth is strict, feel Shi Tianrui was demoted out of Beijing life is not easy, did not complain, Shi Tianrui thousands of miles away from the capital, unexpectedly is not at all.

Now Shi Tianrui is also afraid after bursts of fear, he is a temper who used to take the wrong place to the body, at this time saw his sister crying, Shi Tianrui clenched his teeth, felt that he was about to bite blood out of his mouth, and finally said, "Xiu er, don't worry, my brother will not let that beast go, you now …". It is also my brother's fault. My brother is sorry to you, and he is also sorry to his parents. "

Shi shook her head. She knew the difficulty of Shi Tianrui, and what was wrong was the Wen family. She did not seek revenge on her own brother.

It's just that Shi held these words in his mouth, but he didn't say it. He cried so hard that he couldn't say a complete word.

When Ye Jiao saw this, she put her wish in Xiao Su's arms, then walked quickly over and sat next to Shi.

She had never seen this man cry like this, even when he was dead before, Shi was light, never so excited, and now Ye Jiao looked at Shi Tianrui with some doubt.

Shi Tianrui had a guilty heart, and Ye Jiao became more and more uncomfortable when she saw it. She got up directly and wanted to say something, but her voice paused and turned to look at Zheng.

Zheng knew that Shi Tianrui felt sad, and Zheng himself really wanted to live with her. In addition, Shi had feelings with Ye Jiao and Princess Huanning. Naturally, the closer the better, he said, "your sister is my sister." you should take care of each other. "

Shi Tianrui showed gratitude in his eyes, nodded to Zheng, and then looked at Shi.

But just before Shi Tianrui opened his mouth, Shi shook his head again, patted Ye Jiao's hand to signal that he was all right, got up, wiped his eyes with a veil, and said hoarsely, "my brother and sister-in-law treat me well, I know." but now that my sister supports herself and has an orchard, she can get by, and I don't dare to bother my brother and sister-in-law any more. "

Seeing what Shi Tianrui was going to say, Shi looked at Ye Jiao and put his arm around her.

It was only then that Shi Tianrui thought that he was still in the Qi family, and that it was always difficult for his family to stir up in front of other people's eyes, so he held back his mind and said to Qi Yun, "I made a mistake for a moment, and I can't be surprised."

Qi Yun, who had never opened his mouth, was holding Ningbao and said, "it might as well be a happy event for the reunion of Lord Shi's brother and sister, and it's only natural to get carried away for a while." Qi Yun looked at Shi Tianrui and said, "Lord Shi has helped my family a lot. Wouldn't it be better to stay for a light meal?"

Shi Tianrui also sorted out his mood and said with a smile, "then please Jiro."

During the meal, no one talked about what had just happened, but smiled and said something interesting, plus three milk dolls also came up to be fed, naturally there was a lot of laughter and laughter.

When the Shi family left after the meal, Shi also went with him. Obviously, he had a lot to talk about with Shi Tianrui.

Ye Jiao said to Qi Yun after they left, "does Yingxiu really want to live with them?"

Qi Yun first asked people to hold Xu Bao to coax him to sleep. He and Ye Jiao each hugged him and Ye Jiao. After coaxing the two little guys to drink water, Qi Yun said, "No, their brother and sister will certainly not live in the same door."

Ye Jiao blinked: "Why?"

Qi Yun took a veil and wiped the corners of his mouth for the two children, but he looked at Ye Jiao and said, "now that Shi has set up a female household, she can buy her own property, so there is no need to go to Lord Shi for help. Moreover, this is the way people get along with others. After marriage, they are two families. Even if they are both genuinely close to each other, they cannot always live together. The closer they are, the more discord there will be. It is better to be separated from each other. "

Little ginseng didn't quite understand these things, but she could tell that Shi was probably going to live alone.

Qi Yun continued, "Jiao Niang doesn't have to worry too much. Shi is smart and must have figured it out a long time ago. now when Lord Shi comes, there are people to support her, and there are Zheng and Princess Huanning. Even if she walks sideways in the capital, no one cares."

When Ye Jiao saw Qi Yun saying this, she was relieved, and there was a smile on her face. She leaned over and kissed Qi Yun on the face and said, "No wonder you put Xubao away. These words can't be heard by him."

Even though Xubao's mind is pure, he has a head with a good memory and can remember everything he hears. These worldly people still have to avoid children and avoid distracting their minds by learning early.

Qi Yun smiled and was about to speak when he saw Ning Bao staring at Qi Yun with clean eyes.

It was only then that Qi Erlang realized that his eldest son had dodged, and that there was a second son here.

In terms of intelligence, Ningbao is not inferior to Xubao at all, or even worse.

Qi Yun reached out and pinched Ningbao's chubby face and asked, "what does Ning Bao see Dad do?"

Ning Bao blinked, did not answer, but turned around and hugged the Ruyi in Ye Jiao's arms, why did not give up.

Ruyi and Ningbao have never been separated. They have been in the same place since they were born. They were naturally close to her. felt brother hugging her, such as holding his head high and letting Ningbao hug him cleverly. He also giggled on his face, and his small hand patted Ningbao on the back, looking very happy.

After all, the child was young and it was not long before he learned to speak. Qi Yun didn't know what Ning Bao was thinking, so he simply stopped asking, and the two were hugged and sent to the wing to coax them into Rest.

Ye Jiao did not follow, but went to see the medicinal flowers brought by Zheng.

These flowers were carefully selected by Dong, and most of them she could not see the effect, so she got rid of Zheng and sent them to Ye Jiao.

Ye Jiao saw a lot of flowers and plants when she was a little ginseng, and he knew everything that the people here didn't know-not apart from ten, even if the name was different, the things were the same, then the effect was the same.

This time, most of the medicinal flowers are still used for nourishing, and there is one, which looks strange.

The color is beautiful, the leaves are slender, and the flowers are gradually changing in color, from red to yellow, which is particularly beautiful.

But when Ye Jiao saw it, she recognized that the flower was Evening Orchid.

The color is like the evening glow, the flowers are magnificent but poisonous, and the leaves can solve the toxicity of the flowers.

And this flower is not a huge poison that can kill people, and it can even be used as medicine, which is good for the body.

But that is the need to use other medicines to dilute the toxicity, or eat directly, mild abdominal pain, severe fake death fainting, respiratory stagnation, life-threatening after a long delay.

Ye Jiao wanted to throw away the flower, but thinking that her husband's body could not be used, she changed her mind and said to Xiao Su, "keep this flower alone, surround it, and don't let anyone get close." Then Ye Jiao's voice paused slightly, "Don't let Xiao Hei lean over and eat it. This flower is poisonous and people can't bear it."

Xiao Su immediately said, "second wife, don't worry. I'll be careful."

Ye Jiao nodded and asked people to remove other medicinal flowers from the pot and transplant them into the flower bed instead.

Ye Jiao, who is beneficial to her body, thought that when they were older, she would pinch off a few to make a purse and bring them to the three children to keep them safe. Now she took one down and gave it to Xiao Su, who was beside her, and asked her to send it to the kitchenette.

Then Ye Jiao called Feng Xiucai to come and asked Feng Xiucai to draw the flowers roughly, and when they were all done, Ye Jiao went back to her room with a bunch of drawing paper.

As soon as entered the door, saw Qi Yun looking at the account books.

Today, Qi Yun has a lot of industries inside and outside the capital, it seems that they are scattered, and Qi Erlang has quietly pinched several important places.

The wine in the capital, the restaurants outside the capital, the transportation by water and land, and the caravan at the border, one of these casually picked out will be enough for ordinary families to eat for a lifetime.

However, Qi Yun is still slowly developing what he has, especially the caravan, which is not only his own industry, but also Chu Chengyun's expectations, every time with a task, Qi Yun will not slack off naturally.

What he is holding now is the account book of the caravan, and the caravan will be back in a few days. Instead of going to Qi's hometown, they will unload the goods in Zhuangzi outside the capital, and it is more convenient to rely on the waterway. However, before they come back, Qi Yun has to figure out what to take with him next time, and everything has to be prepared early.

However, after seeing Ye Jiao come back, Qi Yun closed the account books and put them aside. He stood up and walked over to meet Ye Jiao. He smiled and said, "are you all packed up?"

Ye Jiao smiled and nodded, her eyes looked left and right, and asked, "where are the children?"

Qi Yun and Ye Jiao went to wash together, then sat down on the soft couch, pulled over the couch and said, "I just played, but then I saw that it was late, so I asked someone to take them to bed."

Little ginseng wondered: "Xu Bao said he wanted to sleep with me before. Why did he change his mind?"

Xu Bao didn't change his mind, so he still wanted to sleep with Ye Jiao, but Qi Yun revealed to him that Ningbao had recently liked to play with a small wooden sword. Xu Bao immediately wanted to sleep with his younger brother and sister, fearing that his younger brother and sister would be tricked into learning martial arts. I can't study happily with myself in the future.

I'm afraid that at this moment, the dragon and Phoenix are still forced to listen to their brother's garrulous talk.

However, Qi Yun did not make it clear, but only said, "he can do whatever he likes, and it is always difficult to detain him."

Ye Jiao was not ready to ask in detail. she was taking scissors to cut off the candle, picked it out with a silver stick, brightened the candlelight, and then spread out a bunch of paintings in her hand, sharpened the ink, and began to write earnestly.

Qi Yun looked at it, then went down and took another candlestick, put it in one place, and asked, "what is this about, Jiao Niang?"

Ye Jiao did not look up, while writing back: "the medicinal flowers Chunlan gave me, I asked Mr. Feng to draw them for me. I wrote down the name and effect on the side, and asked someone to bring it to Chunlan later, so that she didn't know how to use it."

The ordinary ability to recognize medicine is extremely precious, such as an experienced drugstore who will not teach anyone except to his own apprentice.

But Ye Jiao can be generous to tell others to know, is also rare.

Qi Yun thought about it carefully. Dong was the shopkeeper of his own drugstore. Only when this medicine was clearly recognized could he save the world and save people. This was a merit and a good deed, so he didn't say anything. Instead, he sat by and watched Ye Jiao write.

But looking at it, Qi Yun saw a pile of round words on the paper.

Ye Jiao learns things quickly and has a good understanding, that is, these words are getting more and more round over the years, becoming more and more self-contained, and are particularly easy to recognize.

Seeing that she was a slow writer, Qi Yun said, "Niao Niang, can I help you?"

Ye Jiao shook her head, still intently bowed her head and whispered, "No, Chunlan knows what my handwriting looks like. I know her when I write it, and I won't laugh at me."

Qi Erlang sat sideways, elbows on the tatami table, chin on one hand, smelling and laughing: "the word Jiao Niang is funny, naturally likable, and no one laughs at you."

When Ye Jiao finished writing one and put it aside, she looked at Qi Yun and said, "Saburo said my words were ugly."

Qi Yun smiled and reached out to help her sort out the paper and said faintly, "that's because there's something wrong with his vision. I don't think he can say it now." If you still say that Qi Yun's collection of more than a dozen boxes of large characters by Qi Sanlang is still placed in the east wing room, it would be the same to add a few more boxes.

However, Ye Jiao was not fooled by Qi Yun's words. She looked at her handwriting and felt that it was really different.

The husband said it was interesting that he saw himself as good at everything, but he had better not take it out to outsiders.

Holding up the words, Ye Jiao looked a little worried: "Xubao showed me the words he wrote before. they are also round, won't they be written like me in the future?"

Qi Yun didn't think it was difficult, and said slowly, "Don't worry, that kid Xubao is very diligent, and it's the easiest thing to practice calligraphy. When he is older and his arms are strong, he will be able to pull back 30 big characters a day in a month."

Ye Jiao opened her eyes slightly and said, "Thirty articles a day?" Is it too much? "

Qi Erlang looked at Ye Jiao and replied, "Don't worry, Xubao will only be happy and won't feel much."

Qi Ming studied, which Qi Yun had taught since childhood, and there was nothing to do, so he took reading as an interest.

Stone reading is also the first step for Qi Yun. Because of the expectations of Qi Zhao and Fang, Stone will walk patiently on this road, and it is impossible to say that he likes it.

But the little chubby at home is different. He likes it from the bottom of his heart.

Thirty big words are a punishment for others, but for Xubao, this is called a reward. Not only will he not be sad, but he will be happy to write one less article.

Ye Jiao also thought of this, smiled crooked at the corners of her mouth, and began to pick up her pen and continue to write.

Qi Yun went to bring over the dessert plate on the outside table, inside which was chestnut cake from Huanning, sweet and soft waxy, with the sweet smell of chestnuts, soft and smooth. Recently, Ye Jiao ate two pieces every day.

Seeing Ye Jiao writing attentively, Qi Yun reached out and broke a piece of chestnut cake and fed it to Ye Jiao's mouth.

The little ginseng still stared at the paper and his expression did not change, but his mouth naturally opened.

He took the chestnut cake in one mouthful and swallowed it in his mouth. The bulging appearance of his cheeks made Qi Yun laugh.

Then he broke a piece and fed it to her, and Ye Jiao still opened her mouth and ate.

Soon, three pieces of chestnut cake got into Ye Jiao's stomach.

At this time, Ye Jiao also finished writing the last one and put down her pen, and only then did she notice that Qi Yun was staring at herself and smiling.

The little ginseng looked at him with some confusion, and then realized that his mouth smelled of chestnuts.

At first she was stupefied, and then she was a bit of a pity.

Qi Yun was puzzled: "Jiao Niang doesn't think it's delicious?"

Ye Jiao shook her head and murmured, "delicious is delicious, but when I ate it, I ate it without figuring out the taste, which was a bit of a waste."

Qi Yun is a temperament who doesn't like to eat and drink very much, so he can't understand where his wife's heartache comes from.

But he thought Ye Jiao's appearance was so interesting that he got up, went to Ye Jiao, bowed his head slightly, stretched out his hand and rubbed it on his wife's face.

Where Ye Jiao was willing to suffer, she stood up and pinched his earlobe, and the two fell on the bed laughing.

But she couldn't sleep yet. Ye Jiao ate chestnut cake again. Even if she had washed just now, she had to get up and rinse her mouth again, otherwise she would have broken her teeth.

By the time she cleaned up and lay down again, Ye Jiao had already begun to yawn.

Qi Yun held her in his arms, patted her gently on the woman's back, and said, "Xubao likes to study, but I don't like Ningbao very much. What if he really wants to practice martial arts in the future?"

It is not that it is not good to practice martial arts, but that reading books is what most parents expect from their children, and there are very few people who practice martial arts.

Ye Jiao did not worry so much. She closed her eyes slightly and said slowly, "he is happy. The days are his own. They decide what they want to do when they grow up. I will not choose for them."

Qi Yun's hand had a slight meal, and then he stroked Ye Jiao's back, with a smile in his voice: "the lady is thorough."

But this time Qi Erlang did not get a response, because Ye Jiao had closed her eyes and went to sleep, looking peaceful.

Qi Yun also closed his eyes, and the sleep came the next day. When he woke up, it was still dark, and the morning light was faint in the distance.

But there is a smell in the room that you can't even ignore.

Qi Yun touched the side and felt empty, so he sat up, stretched out his hand and opened the bed tent and said, "Niang Niang, have you stewed any soup again?"

But what was handed to Qi Yun this time was not a soup bowl, but a dark medicine.

A full bowl, with the familiar fragrance of medicine, is still steaming hot on it.

Qi Yun looked up and squinted with laughter in Ye Jiao's eyes, and only heard her say, "Xianggong, take your medicine."

Qi Erlang reached out and took it, first raised his neck and drank it, and then asked, "what I drank yesterday, how can I drink it today?"

As he is now in good health, this medicine is also once every other day. I drank it at noon yesterday. It is not the time to take medicine in Japan.

If he had changed someone else, he would not have imported it, but Ye Jiao handed it over, even if it was he drank it all.

Ye Jiao put the medicine bowl aside, sat down next to Qi Yun and said, "this is a medicinal herb sent by Chunlan yesterday. It's good for the body, but the flowering period is short, so I don't have to thank you any more. I had to let someone take it early and fry it this morning."

But while Ye Jiao was talking, Qi Yun felt a little hot.

Familiar with the heat, Qi Yun immediately pulled over the quilt to cover his waist and turned his eyes to Ye Jiao.

The little ginseng was not surprised and said with a smile: "it doesn't matter, consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan, tonify the kidney and tonify qi, this is normal."

Qi Yun said nothing but stared at Ye Jiao.

Ye Jiao wanted to ask him what he was looking at, but she was dragged over by Qi Yun and fell into bed.

In the tent, a small voice came out: "the anger caused by Jiao Niang should also help me to disperse it."

The response was a clear voice: "well, hello."

The effect of this medicine is very obvious. Qi Yun's hands and feet were cold at the time of the change of season, but this time he eased a lot.

After the middle wall was flattened, the house, which originally belonged to the Wen family and now belongs to the Qi family, began to be rebuilt noisily.

Plant trees and move water to build a house. don't know how much money it cost to build a cool house.

Fortunately, Qi Erlang was not short of money, and he nodded as long as it was what Ye Jiao wanted.

When there is nothing wrong with the little ginseng, he will take a look around and take a walk, until all the construction is in the summer.

There are few trees in the capital, and it is much hotter in summer than in my hometown. Fortunately, the cool house is built a lot, and there is living water to relieve the heat, so the family often lives in this house.

Now Ye Jiao is no longer like last year when she was double-bodied, now she is refreshed, the ice warning can be used freely, and the ice cheese can be eaten freely, and she is more comfortable than any other summer.

Near the end of July, Qi Ming was promoted and became the deputy director of Zhengliupin, which was the former number one, Xiao Yuanbai, and the two went to work in a Yamen after all.

After the will of the promotion came down, Qi Ming let Liusi go to the Qi family and invited his second brother and sister-in-law to have dinner, and the place was set in Qi Ming's own small courtyard.

It is usually Qi Ming who comes to eat, but this time Qi Sanlang is promoted, and it is common sense to treat at home.

Instead of taking the children, Qi Yun and Ye Jiao took Tiezi and Xiao Su and went in a carriage.

In the carriage, Qi Yun asked, "who did Saburo invite?"

Liu Si sat upright at the moment, and immediately said, "go back, go back to the second young master, the third young master only invited, invited a friend."

Qi Yun picked the tip of his eyebrow and said, "colleagues?"

Liu Si hesitated and nodded: "sort of."

This made Qi Yun somewhat gratified. Before, he asked Qi Ming to move out because he wanted to make his family Saburo independent and could not always rely on himself. Now that he has become an official and has a serious job, he should have his own circle.

Now it is a happy event to see that Qi Ming has been able to make friends with his colleagues.

It's just that Qi Yun could not guess whether Qi Ming invited the second place of the Guo family, who had a harmonious relationship with him before, or the number one scholar of the Xiao family, who would work with him in the future. He just didn't think about it, and it was a happy event.

As a result, as soon as they entered the gate of Qi Ming's small courtyard, Qi Yun and Ye Jiao immediately paused and saw Chu Chengyun, who was lifting his front skirt and stepping on a stool to pick grapes under the grape frame in the yard.

Standing by, Ye Pingrong looked calm, but a closer look showed that he was tight and was always ready to lie down as a meat mat when Chu Chengyun fell.

Hearing a noise at the door, Chu Chengyun turned to see Mr. and Mrs. Qi, and immediately smiled on his face and said, "Erlang is here. Come and sit down. This grape is very sweet."
