Ye Jiao was originally playing with Xu Bao's little fleshy face, but when she heard the sound, she wanted to stick her head out to have a look.

Qi Yun gently helped her and said in a low voice, "I'll go and have a look." then he pushed open the door of che Yu, stepped on a low stool and got out of the car. He looked at the strange man standing in front of him with a smile on his face and said, "I haven't asked which Mencius yet?"

Although there is only one Meng mansion associated with the Qi family, the capital is so big and there are many people surnamed Meng, so they still ask some appropriate questions.

The man smiled and said, "the little master's family is Prime Minister Meng. I have come here on the orders of my lord to wait for Prince Qi. I also hope that Mr. Qi will pass by the mansion. My master has something important to discuss with him."

When Qi Yun heard the speech, he nodded, reached out and took the invitation, and the butler of Mengfu smiled and said goodbye.

After he left, Qi Yun turned around and saw Ye Jiao push open the car door and get ready to come down. She hurriedly put the invitation into her arms and walked quickly to help her.

Ye Jiao did not let him hold him, but instead stuffed the chubby Xu Bao into Qi Yun's arms: "hold him well and be steady."

Qi Yun hugged his fat son in his arms and let Xu Bao sit on his arm. Qi Erlang jolted and hesitated and said to Ye Jiao, "I always feel that I have gone home. Xu Bao is a lot fatter than before.". "

"it's not fat, it's strong!" Xubao immediately protested, holding out his small chest, reaching out and tugging at the hair on Qi Yun's coat to try to correct his name.

Ye Jiao laughed as soon as she heard this, leaned over and kissed Xubao on the face, appeased and said, "Yes, we Xubao have grown up, not fat."

Xubao was happy and smiled and hugged Qi Yun's neck, leaned sideways against his neck, and directly occupied his father.

As the whole family goes out these days, the twins of dragon and Phoenix are even younger than Xubao, so they naturally have to hold them first.

Xubao loves his younger brother and sister and never fights for it, but he still wants his parents to hold him in his heart.

Finally had the opportunity to let his father hug himself, even if Xu Bao preferred to let the fragrant and soft mother hug, but it was good to have a father, Xu Bao did not pick.

Sitting in a carriage for a long time is actually very sleepy, especially for the children, even after noon, the children quickly go back to their rooms to sleep.

That is, Xu Bao turned it over and refused Rest.

Ye Jiao reached out and patted the little guy on the back. her eyes looked at Mrs. Mo and asked, "where's the stone? can you rest?"

Mrs. Mo replied, "We have a guest at home. Master Shi is talking to that man and has just asked someone to deliver refreshments."

Ye Jiao was stupefied, thinking that a Mengfu housekeeper had just called away the husband, and now another guest had found a stone, but she was not free when she came back from the door.

Xubao turned over and looked at Ye Jiao and said, "I know. It must be Sister Wu looking for him."

On hearing this, Ye Jiao smiled and touched Xubao's face and asked, "how did Xubao know?"

"because Brother Stone has been talking about Sister Wu." Speaking of which, Xu Bao got stuck for a moment.

Because he remembered, Shi said that he wanted to make a vow to Wu Miaoer, but in the books that Xu Bao read, only men and women made a vow. How can a man and a woman make a vow?

Xubao stopped talking, and Ye Jiao stopped asking, but turned to Mrs. Mo and said, "who is waiting by the stone?"

"back to the second wife, it's the breeze."

Ye Jiao nodded, the breeze was still appropriate, and said, "take more care. I'm afraid I'm very tired today. I'll let people send something easy to digest in the past."

"Yes, second daughter-in-law, I wrote it down."

Then, Ye Jiao focused on rubbing Xubao, consuming Xubao's mental head, and when he fell asleep, Ye Jiao went back to her bedroom.

As soon as entered the door, saw that the room had been cleaned up properly, and the objects taken away were quickly put in place. Only a box with three locks that Ye Jiao always carried with her was well placed on the table, and no one moved. Not even Qi Yun touched it.

When he saw her coming back, Qi Yun looked at her and said softly, "are you all asleep?"

Ye Jiao nodded and said, "well, I've all gone to sleep." Then Ye Jiao went to the table and sat down, casually put the box aside, and poured herself a cup of hot tea.

But soon Qi Yun handed a cup of tea that had been dried early to Ye Jiao: "New scented tea, try it?"

Ye Jiao smiled, took it and drank it, neither cold nor hot. After drinking it, she felt comfortable.

Qi Yun took out the invitation, looked at it again, and said, "I'm going to Mengfu later. You have a good rest and sleep, and I'll be back when I wake up." Then he handed the invitation to Ye Jiao for her to see.

The little ginseng took it over, opened it and looked at it, somewhat surprised: "this invitation is a little different."

It is not that the appearance of the invitation is strange, but that the words written in it are beautiful, but the number of words is small. It is only that Qi Yun is asked to go through the mansion, but nothing is mentioned.

Usually invite people to the door more or less want to write an excuse, not to see the flowers together or to enjoy the moon together, but this is very simple and straightforward.

Qi Yun bent the corner of his mouth and said faintly, "I think it was a post written by the Prime Minister himself."

Ye Jiao couldn't help looking at Qi Yun, thought about it, and asked, "is it related to Saburo?"

"about yes." Qi Yun put the invitation back into his sleeve and said softly, "the marriage between Meng Wu and Saburo is a sure thing. After waiting for the emperor's decree, my parents will be able to enter Beijing, and Meng Wu will be ready to marry. It's just that the two families haven't met each other until now. After all, the Prime Minister asked me to ask about the family's situation, and it didn't get in the way."?.

Ye Jiao saw that he had confidence in his heart, so she said nothing more. She got up and found a dress for Qi Yun to change into, and specially picked out a belt set with jade. When he was ready, she stood on tiptoe and kissed Qi Yun on the cheek. "be careful on the road," she said with a smile. "

Qi Yun smiled and nodded, took the iron and left.

After he left, although Ye Jiao felt tired, she did not go to Rest, but asked Xiao Su to call Qin in charge.

Nowadays, the Qi family does not have a housekeeper, and Tiezi takes care of most of the big and small things. He can be regarded as a proud man around Qi Yun. Although he is not a housekeeper, he does the job of a housekeeper.

When he returned to his hometown for the Spring Festival, Tiezi followed, and the big and small feelings of the house were handed over to Qin's steward to deal with.

Qin said that he was the manager of the wine shop, but just like the manager of the Song Dynasty, there was only one shop on the surface, but in fact he helped take care of many industries in the hands of Qi Yun, and the manager of Qin was much younger than that of the Song Dynasty, and he was in the prime of life. can't get tired if have more things to do.

Qi Yun also decided that the man could not get out of the sight of money, and as long as he gave more monthly money, Qin would be able to catch up with the work.

At this moment, when the manager of Qin heard that the young lady was invited, she immediately put down the things at hand and hurried over. After entering the door, she said to Ye Jiao in a warm voice, "Fu'an, the second young lady." Then he respectfully put the ledger on the table. "these are the running expenses of the heavenly mansion, and ask the second daughter-in-law to have a look at them."

Qi Jiao took care of the affairs of the ordinary shop, but all the money and money in the house was in the hands of Ye Jiao.

Naturally, I want to see this account book, but there is no hurry. Ye Jiao just smiled and said to Qin, "Qin Guan sits in advance. I have something I want to ask you."

Qin sat down according to his words, with a gentle smile on his face and a gentle voice: "No, granny, please speak."

"have you delivered the things I asked you to send to all the families in the capital?"

"it has been delivered, except for. That one asked her Royal Highness the eldest princess to send it away on her behalf, and I sent all the fat ones myself. " When Qin was in charge of the matter, he smiled, but he had some feelings in his heart.

He usually works with Qi Yun, and Qin admires Qi Erlang's tactics and tricks from the bottom of his heart.

On the other hand, they don't know much about Ye Jiao and Qin, and they have little contact with them, and they usually don't know who their young granny is dealing with.

After giving something to Ye Jiao this time, Qin manager realized that it was no wonder that these two people formed a close pair, and their respective abilities surprised Qin.

Ye Jiao didn't think so much. When she heard the words, she smiled and said, "that's good. Is there anything you can bring back?"

The steward Qin said hurriedly, "Yes, her Highness the eldest princess specifically mentioned that now she is getting older in the month, so she can't eat and sleep soundly. If the second daughter-in-law has free time, she hopes to get together in the past, so that she can say something about herself."

Such an invitation is simple and straightforward, there is neither post nor certificate, but the two are now sister-in-law and sister-in-law, and they are close to each other, so there is no need for so much vanity.

Ye Jiao said, "I see, please."

"No." The steward Qin got up and arched his hand, then sat down and went on to Ye Jiao, "these days, while the owner went back, the family hired craftsmen to renovate Mr. Feng's study. This was ordered by the second young master before he left, and now it has been almost repaired, but there are some meticulous areas that need to be carefully considered by Mr. Feng when he comes back."

Ye Jiao was putting a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake on her plate into her mouth. "Mr. Feng seldom went home," she said. "my husband gave him a big holiday. I'm afraid he won't be back for half a month. We'll talk about it then."

"Yes."

"there is another thing. My family will give out wax money during the Spring Festival. I don't know if there is such a rule in the capital. I discussed with my husband that it would be better to treat them equally."

As soon as he heard the money, Qin's eyes lit up and there was a lot of smile.

Ye Jiao also knew that the steward had the temper of asking for money, so she smiled and said, "it's wax money, but the twelfth month has passed, so it's a reward for your staff. You first draw up a list carefully, and then you can discuss it with him when he comes back."

Qin steward immediately got up and saw that Ye Jiao was a little sleepy on her face, so she consciously said goodbye and left as if she had taken the wind when she left, and the whole person was particularly energetic.

And Ye Jiao really felt sleepy, so she ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and then put it down and played a Yawn.

Xiao Su hurriedly brought a clean mouth of fragrant tea, let Ye Jiao gargle, and helped Ye Jiao remove the skirt she was wearing. After Ye Jiao lay on the bed, Xiao Su left the bed tent and carefully covered the tent under the mattress. Only then did she go to the outer room lightly.

Ye Jiao fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow. When she woke up, it was dark outside and there was a person sitting on her side.

The villain was half-squinted, felt someone around him, and subconsciously reached out to touch it.

After the cool fingertips were caught by her, Ye Jiao said softly, "Xianggong, you are back."

Qi Yun tightened his fingers, took Ye Jiao's hand, gently pulled it, and said, "get up and wake up. I've got dinner ready. Get up and eat."

"mm-hmm." Ye Jiao rubbed her eyes and then sat up holding Qi Yun's hand.

It's just that the villain thought of waking up slowly, and even if he opened his eyes, his head was still confused, just lying in Qi Yun's arms and not moving.

Qi Erlang was also used to Ye Jiao's temperament, put down the book on his hand, put his hands around Ye Jiao, and reached out to gently touch her back.

After about half a cup of tea, Ye Jiao woke up, got up with her clothes on, smiled and asked, "can you see that Meng five girl in Xianggong?"

Qi Yun first wrung a warm and wet veil to wipe her face, and then the two sat down together at the dinner table, serving her soup and said, "No, but it's not too different to see it. It's enough to know what kind of girl she is."

Ye Jiao reached out and took the soup bowl, while her eyes looked at Qi Yun curiously: "you can know if you don't meet?" My husband is really good. "

Hearing the words, Qi Yun cocked up the corners of his mouth, picked up chopsticks and picked up food for Ye Jiao: "Taste, the newly cooked mutton is the most delicious while it is hot."

Ordinary Ye Jiao doesn't eat mutton very much, although she doesn't eat and drink, but when she was in her hometown, mutton was not fresh enough, so it was hard to avoid the smell of mutton. No matter what spices were used to hide it, there would be a faint taste, and some of the little ginseng could not keep its mouth shut.

However, after entering the capital, there should be less and less fresh mutton here, but the more expensive the place is, the more extravagant the choice of ingredients is, no matter how much manpower and material resources are used for a plate of fresh vegetables.

This time, Qi Yun specially let people raise the sheep on the Zhuangzi outside the city. Where the water and grass are lush, the sheep are fastidious in eating and drinking. The meat produced is not only not smug, but also shows a sense of sweetness.

Ye Jiao tried to take a bite, then smiled and narrowed her eyes: "delicious.". " Then the little ginseng paused, reached out and took a sip of the tea, glaring slightly round eyes, "this is spicy, not like the usual spicy taste."

Qi Yun said, "this mutton should be cut into large pieces, forked with an iron fork and roasted on the fire. In addition to the usual spices, there are also those brought back by this caravan from outside the customs. If you like it, I will ask people to keep more in the future."

Ye Jiao nodded again and again, smiled and clipped it with chopsticks, and ate three pieces in a row before giving up.

She just ate something delicious but didn't let Ye Jiao forget it, so she looked at Qi Yun and asked, "you haven't told me yet. How are you doing?"

It is not that Ye Jiao is too curious, but when she comes, Liu carefully instructs that even if the marriage is decided, Liu still hopes that Ye Jiao can pay more attention to Qi Ming. As a sister-in-law, Ye Jiao naturally pays more attention to it.

Qi Yun did not hide it from her and said in a slow voice, "people must be good. Although I have not seen her appearance, it does not matter if I take a wife and marry a virtuous woman." I went to pay special attention to the girl's character this time. "Qi Yun's voice paused." it's an excellent one. "

When Ye Jiao heard this, she went to Qi Yun's side and asked with a smile, "tell me in detail."

Qi Yun gave Ye Jiao a piece of chopsticks and vegetables, and then said, "Prime Minister Meng Prime Minister Meng Prime Minister died young with his wife, but now she is in charge of the family's affairs. One is the wife of the eldest son born by Meng Prime Minister's original wife, and the other is this Meng five girl."

Ye Jiao has been in charge of family affairs for a long time now. After hearing this, she immediately reacted and said, "the housekeeper mother does not take care of the housekeeper, but let her daughter-in-law and her original daughter be the housekeeper. It is new."

Isn't this an empty succession room?

Qi Yun said, "how the Meng family had nothing to do with us, and I didn't ask much about it, but this Meng five girl had never heard of a good name before. She thought she was very strict and didn't steal the limelight outside, but she could make the queen plan for him. The prime minister recognized our in-laws, but I'm afraid this idea is not comparable to that of ordinary women."

Ye Jiao was drinking soup. When she heard this, she put down the spoon and asked, "what's the difference with the third brother?"

Qi Yun moved the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm afraid it can be higher."

His younger brother knows that Qi Sanlang is preoccupied with the country and the world, and it is afraid that there is a beginning and an end to the court, but the twists and turns between ordinary people seem to be far inferior to other Meng girls.

Ye Jiao was not surprised and said with a smile, "Hui Niang is intelligent, and it is normal for her sister to be smarter than her countrymen."

This remark left Qi Yun speechless for a long time.

Yes, my sister is smart, but why is Saburo different from himself?

When Ye Jiao saw that he didn't speak, she couldn't help asking, "isn't that good?"

Qi Yun held back his mind and shook his head. "No, it's good, it's good." Saburo only knows about politics, but he is too upright. To have a virtuous wife is simply a good thing to miss and pursue. "

At this point, Qi Yun could not help looking in the direction of the palace.

Aren't ready-made examples sitting in there?

This brother-in-law has done a good job.

Ye coddled believed him, and since Xianggong said it was right, he thought it was a good marriage, and he lived up to Liu's expectations, so he relaxed his mind and concentrated on eating.

After the meal, people carried the bathtub to take a bath, and it was already Hai when they were all cleaned up.

Ye Jiao washed first, dried her hair and went to bed and left the bed account. Qi Yun also prepared Rest after tidying up. Who knew that as soon as he opened the tent, what he saw was not his wife lying down, but Ye Jiao, who was sitting cross-legged and looking up at him.

The room was baked in a charcoal basin. Ye Jiao was still wearing a coat and sitting on the quilt. Of course, it was not cold, but what Qi Yun saw at first glance was the green wiped chest and two white legs, which dyed the man's ears red.

Ye Jiao, unaware of it, smiled and said to him, "Don't sleep yet, Xiang Gong. I forgot to put the things in the box in the dark box. Go and get it."

The secret compartment of the two people's urgent things is on the bedboard. think Ye Jiao doesn't sleep at this time to put things.

Instead of.

Qi Yun spit on himself for a moment, so he went to the table and took the box. Ye Jiao took it, touched the key and opened the box.

There are three things in there.

One is the white rainbow fruit in the cowhide bag. Two were used before, but now the remaining one is naturally important. Ye Jiao will take it with her when she goes far away.

The other is the account book, in which there are not only the running water accounts of the family, but also the whereabouts of Qi Yun's money, because Qi Erlang's money is managed by Ye Jiao, and the little ginseng always feels that he is in charge of his account to lighten Qi Yun's burden, so every account is done in great detail.

There is also a book, buttoned and placed at the bottom of the box. I can't see what it is.

Qi Yun thought Ye Jiao was going to put it in the dark box, but he saw that Ye Jiao just put the cowhide bag and account book into it and closed it. The book was not stuffed into it.

He was about to ask, but he saw that Ye Jiao had taken out the book.

Little ginseng looked up at him, then looked down at the book, quickly turned to a page, nodded to himself, and then turned over and handed it to Qi Yun.

When Qi Erlang saw it, not only his ears were red, but his face was all red.

This is the picture he bought to avoid the fire, and this is not the first time Qi Zhi has been affixed to her face with a book painting by her wife, but … Caught off guard, anyone will be amazed.

Ye Jiao was very calm, neatly reached out and grabbed Qi Yun by the collar and dragged him over, and then settled down in bed. She smiled at Qi Yun and said, "I wanted to take it back and watch it with my husband during the Spring Festival, but I was very busy these days. Even if I had to spend some spare time with my children, I didn't use it all the time."

Qi Yun was stupefied. Just now he thought that he was thinking wrong. As a result, his wife had been thinking about this all the time.

Ye Jiao lay down on Qi Yun, holding the man's face in her hands, smiling eyebrows and eyes bent and said, "now it's empty, Xianggong, do you want to?"

In response, the man leaned over and kissed her for a long time.

When her lips parted, Qi Qi's slightly low voice sounded in Ye Jiao's ear: "Yes, of course I do. My wife and I have always wanted to go to the same place."

The little ginseng put his arm around the man's neck and wanted to say something else, but the next moment the man turned over and pressed himself on the mattress.

Soon she couldn't remember anything and couldn't say a sentence. Ye Jiao could only squint her eyes when she was comfortable and thought, there are so many benefits of being a person.

The rest of the day is much more leisurely than the Spring Festival, do not have to go to countless tea parties, do not have to keep your feet on the ground every day, but can do some of their own things, or sit on the couch and watch the children play, it is really very comfortable for the little ginseng.

And if she goes out of the house, she will mostly go to see Huanning.

Although Ye Pingrong and Huanning live together, Ye Pingrong is still Ye Jiao's eldest brother, but Ye Jiao has no recollection of Ye Pingrong at the moment. She often goes straight to Huanning's house and goes to the same place with her to talk endlessly.

Not only because the two people have their own words, but also because Ye Jiao wants to spend more time with Huanning to help her make up, the future production can be more smooth.

Huanning would like Ye Jiao to come often. She doesn't have many friends, and she wants to enter the palace too much. It's good to have Ye Jiao to talk with her.

When Ye Jiao came that day, she saw Huanning eating kiwi fruit with a silver fork.

Ye Jiao also likes to eat this, its shape is like a pear, its color is like a peach, to be ripe to pick down a pile, sweet as honey, very delicious.

Huanning saw her coming and said with a smile, "come here, Niang Niang, have a taste."

Ye Jiao took a fork, stuck a piece into her mouth, and then wrinkled her sour face.

Huanning was stupefied, and then reacted to it, feeling a little embarrassed: "Sorry, Niang, I forgot that my taste is too much now. Are you all right?"

Ye Jiao shook her head, but her face was still wrinkled until Huanning took a piece of Yee candy and stuffed it into her mouth.

With a piece of candy, Ye Jiao rubbed her cheek and looked left and right: "this is what Yingxiu brought to you, isn't it? where is she?"

Huanning was touching her belly when she heard the words and said, "just now, she said she wanted to go for a walk, so she went out." her voice paused, and Huanning said, "Jiao Niang can also go and have a look. I have a parrot. It looks so good that it hangs under the peach tree in the backyard."

Ye Jiao, who had never seen a parrot since she was an adult, got up with a smile and said, "what about you, Huanning?"

"it's windy outside. I won't go. I'll wait for you here." With that, Huanning stuck a piece of sour kiwifruit into his mouth.

Ye Jiao felt her teeth fall down when she looked at it, so she went and touched the candy and put it in her mouth before she went out.

Ye Jiao is a frequent visitor to this mansion, and she can find a place without having to be led.

After a moon gate, you can see the peach tree, but Ye Jiao stopped after passing the moon gate.

She stood under the peach tree, holding the branches of the peach tree, blinking, speechless.

Xiao Su saw that Ye Jiao would not go, so she looked at her puzzled and saw Shi Shi in a blue cloak over there, and opposite Shi. Hey, isn't that Lord Liu Rong Liu?

The author has something to say: Xubao: I'm not fat!

Qi Yun:.

Ye Jiao: yes, it's not fat, but it's meaty.

Xubao:. Qaq
