Chapter 859: On the way
The drizzle is rainy, the grass and trees are thick, the travelers deal with the spring rain, they have experience, and they see the dark clouds on the horizon from afar, so they take out the rain gear.
Before they put it on, the rain was dripping down, and Li Qianqian and the others sat in the carriage, enjoying the fresh scenery in the rain curtain.
The guards were riding on horses, looking careless, but in fact, they were watching and listening to all directions, and the long convoy was winding on the official road.
It's just that for Xu Xiumei, their carriage is an eyesore, because the person sitting in it is Lan Tang, the wife of the owner of Fengzhuang.
"It's an eyesore. Xu Xiumei looked at it for a while, and couldn't tell that the figure was the owner of Fengzhuang that she admired, so she shook the curtain hard, and the carriage was originally pressed against the door, but she was bored, and she didn't want someone to pull the curtain, so she asked someone to replace the curtain with a string of East Bead beads, which showed the wealth and luxury of the Cangpai.
This is also after Su Jiuniang slapped Xu Xiumei, she couldn't let go of her hands anymore, the Cang faction was rich, and the head of Xu had only one daughter, and she cherished her life, even her grandchildren couldn't compare, Mrs. Xu took her as a granddaughter, and everything good was piled up in front of her.
Mrs. Xu's mother's family is a big salt merchant in Dongqi, and she is the old daughter of her parents, and when she got married, it was really ten miles of red makeup, and a string of eastern beads and beads was not in her eyes at all.
Although Su Jiuniang always talked about her mother's mother-in-law, Princess Ruifeng, in fact, Princess Ruifeng didn't even know that she was there.
Mrs. Su Si still wants to save face, even in the face of her own mother, the eldest princess Ruifeng only knows that the big maid next to her daughter climbs the bed, and the daughter is in charge of carrying the cheap maid to the aunt, as for the follow-up, Mrs. Su Si will not take the initiative to tell the eldest princess Ruifeng, the eldest princess of Ruifeng has more pipelines to find out about this matter, so there is no need to ask her daughter and stick a knife in her daughter's heart.
The two sides tacitly agreed that the matter would never be mentioned again.
Every time my mother-in-law goes back to her parents' house for a banquet, a birthday, or a small stay, she will bring her children with her, and Su Jiuniang is forgotten, but these things, as long as Su Jiuniang doesn't say it, how can Xu Xiumei and them know, so Xu Xiumei and they all think that Su Jiuniang is a grandson, and she is the granddaughter of Princess Ruifeng.
Because of this identity, Xu Xiumei sent things to Su Jiuniang from time to time, hoping that when Su Jiuniang was going to her grandmother's house that day, she could bring herself with her.
Although Su Jiuniang has taken a lot of good things from Xu Xiumei's hands, she really can't tell her distress when she sees Xu Xiumei taking the bead string so dismissively, she has seen a lot of good things from her mother-in-law, so she can see at a glance the preciousness of the bead string.
However, in front of Xu Xiumei, she didn't show any traces, only her clenched fists revealed her thoughts.
"You're angry here, and people can't see it, and they don't know you're angry, so why bother?" Su Jiuniang persuaded.
Xu Xiumei snorted coldly and turned her head to look at her, "Don't think that your business will definitely be successful, Feng Gongzi is a dragon and phoenix among the people, and the women who like him will only be more than the women who like the owner of Feng Zhuang, and the owner of Feng Zhuang and Lan Tang have a childhood friendship, so they will marry her, Feng Gongzi here, no woman has a childhood friendship with him, he doesn't have to marry an old girl like Feng Zhuang Owner." ”
After a pause, seeing that Su Jiuniang's face had not changed, she didn't seem to care much, and said with a smile an old news from a few years ago, "...... Now, several girls in Tiejiazhuang are married, but at the beginning, their grandfather took advantage of the fact that everyone gathered in Tiejiazhuang to congratulate him on his birthday, and opened his mouth to coerce Feng Gongzi to marry his granddaughter, Feng Gongzi didn't pay attention to him from beginning to end, he was on the rivers and lakes of the Northern Jin Dynasty, but he was a famous and powerful old man, and even such a family, Feng Gongzi didn't put it in his eyes, do you think that with the power of your maternal grandparents, you can suppress him?"
Xu Xiumei's words fell, and she saw Su Jiuniang's face change as she wished, what Xu Xiumei didn't know was that Su Jiuniang was a concubine, and it had nothing to do with the eldest princess Ruifeng and the Changpinghou family, the children in the four rooms of the Su family had all appeared in front of the eldest princess of Ruifeng, but she didn't.
I thought that as long as I told my father and my father nodded, he would be able to use the power of Princess Ruifeng's mother and son to coerce Gongzi Feng, but Gongzi Feng was not even afraid of the elders in the rivers and lakes, would he be afraid of the power of Princess Ruifeng, and agree to marry him?
"So I said! My cousin still uses my brains to see if there is any way to help my cousin marry the owner of Feng Zhuang, as long as I become the eldest sister-in-law of Feng Gongzi, the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, he has no parents, and the marriage must be listened to by my brother and sister-in-law. ”
Su Jiuniang lowered her eyes and said in her heart, don't do what you wanted, you forgot to promise me!
"Cousin, let me think about it!"
"Sister has to think quickly, otherwise when they enter Fengjiazhuang, I want to get close to the owner of Fengjiazhuang, but it will be even more difficult. ”
"I see. After Su Jiuniang nodded in response, she closed her eyes and ignored Xu Xiumei.
Xu Xiumei got Su Jiuniang's promise, and no longer paid attention to her, leaned forward and lifted the bead curtain again, looked out, and didn't care at all, the rain splashed in, and the driver sitting on the wheel was quite helpless, but he didn't open his mouth to persuade him, the eldest lady of their family can't be persuaded to move, whoever persuades him is unlucky, let her go!
Li Qianqian's convoy has someone in front of everything, naturally there are also people from the Diancang faction, and they are staring at the people of Fengjiazhuang, their people go to the inn, and the people of the Diancang faction also follow, one is considered a coincidence, and the two times are barely the same as the heroes, otherwise how could they all pick the same inn?
But three times, four times...... Later, Feng Gongzi asked Li Qianqian's people to arrange it, anyway, the people on both sides are like a family, Li Shu complained a little about this, but after seeing the previous few times, after pestering the people who came up after staying overnight, he acquiesced.
The owner of Feng Lao Zhuang has a sharp eye, and he has long found that he is tired, but he has nothing to say, he should eat and drink, and the life can be free, but the two brothers of Feng Zhuang are two brothers, every time they go, there will always be someone to visit, no way, their brothers are not easy to see, even if they go to Fengjiazhuang, they often can only see one person, sometimes, the two brothers are not there.
Now that there is a chance to show their face in front of their brothers, who doesn't move forward?
Especially after meeting each other, I found out that the unexpected joy was unexpected, the old owner of Feng Zhuang didn't need to say, but the great sect leader of Li?!
Fengjiazhuang is well-informed, and there are inns and restaurants in various places to collect news, but Rui Yao teaches them! Although there are not many inns, they are exquisite and distinctive, don't you see that there is an inn that is now difficult to book? There is also a newly opened hot spring inn, which is even more like a cloud, and everyone is really red when you see it!
There is an inn I heard that there is no external shareholder, but the hot spring inn has! The better its business, the more dividends the shareholders will pay, if they can make friends with the master of Li Da, in the future, the Ruiyao Sect will open an inn again, they may be able to mix a share, and the business of making money will never be too much!
Everyone naturally ignores Li Qianqian, the current sect leader, because she is young, second, she is a girl, and thirdly, although she has reached the end of the year, she really has not many opportunities to show her face, and people outside do not know whether she was born flat or round, because she is keeping filial piety, and I have not heard that her marriage is engaged, but although she has no mother, she has a Hou Ye father, and the decision to decide her marriage should be in the hands of her father.
In this way, everyone decided that Li Qianqian, the sect leader, was just a pretense to fool people!
Although some people want to marry this sect leader Xiangyao home, but when they think of the identity of their father, they must not look down on them, so they don't want to be bored.
Anyway, if you can talk to Sect Master Li, Sect Master Li won't matter!
Because of the deliberate operation of Feng Gongzi and Li Shu, Li Qianqian can be leisurely along the way, she and Lan Tang go out shopping and listen to dramas together, and occasionally meet people like Xu Xiumei who come to the door to provoke, but as long as the owner of Feng Zhuang shows up, they immediately shift their targets.
Besides, there is Zhang Duoli, a peerless beauty, and Gao Ling'er, a heroic beauty, Li Qianqian is deliberately low-key, pretending to be small, and the girl who comes to provoke almost all of them skips her.
After all, she looks small, although she is no worse than Zhang Duoli, no one will take her as a threat.
Because of the rain, after arriving at the ground on this day, Li Qianqian and the others did not go out shopping, but stayed in the house honestly, watching Chunjiang and them pack up their boxes.
And when she had breakfast in the morning, Lan Tang was slightly unwell and always gagged, but fortunately, because of the rain and slippery roads, the speed of the car was not fast, otherwise she would probably be more uncomfortable.
Li Qianqian accompanied her to rest in the warm pavilion of the second room, Zhang Duoli and Gao Ling'er went to clean up their houses, Yunzhu saw Lan Tang's white face, and felt very uneasy, waiting for her to fall asleep, quietly beckoned to Li Qianqian.
Seeing this, Li Qianqian helped Lan Tang tuck the corners of the quilt and walked out gently.
Coming to the hall, a few little maids were busy wiping the tables and chairs, in fact, before moving in, the inn had been cleaned by someone, but Chunjiang They didn't watch people clean up, they just felt uneasy, or asked the little maids to wipe again, and then replaced the chairs and chairs they brought, and even the tablecloths were changed into sets.
Li Qianqian didn't care about these trivial matters, but seeing that Chunjiang was concerned, it was not easy to say anything, so they let them go, otherwise they would be bored all the way in the car, and after everyone got out of the car, if there was no errand to do, I was afraid that they would be idle and panic.
Yun Zhu glanced at the people in the room and smiled bitterly at Li Qian, she couldn't drag the sect leader out of the house, right? It's raining outside! And looking at this situation, it seems that the rain will get heavier the later it gets.
"It's okay, let's talk in the hugging building!" The hall is divided into front and back, there is a hugging building outside the back hall, and there is a corridor outside the front hall, and there are doors and windows in the hugging building, which can keep the rain out, and the corridor has no doors and windows to block the rain.
The front hall was full of people busy, but the back hall was much quieter, only a wisp of agarwood accompanied by silence.
There was no one in the building, but you could hear the sound of the rain and the dingdong rain pounding on the windowpane.
Li Qianqian sat down on the soft couch in front of the window, Yunzhu consciously went to make tea, after taking the tea, Li Qianqian pointed to the warm couch for her to sit, how dare Yunzhu sit, busy refusing, Li Qianqian smiled, "What you want to say to me, I don't want people to know, if you don't get closer, do you want to stay away?"
Yunzhu also smiled and nodded, "It's the slave who thinks about it." ”
"What do you want to tell me?"
"Madame seems to be overjoyed. Yun Zhu is not sure, after all, Lan Tang knows how to heal, and she should know best whether she is pregnant or not.
Li Qianqian thinks that doctors don't treat themselves, not to mention that Lan Tang didn't think about this aspect at all, and he didn't expect it to be possible. "Why don't you tell Madame?" Actually, she wanted to ask, what did you tell me? I haven't married yet, and I don't know anything about pregnancy and childbirth!
Yun Zhu smiled, "Although you are younger than Madame, you are much more stable than Madame. "This is the truth, when I first met, it was Lan Tang who took care of Li Qianqian like a big sister, but as Li Qianqian grew up, Lan Tang's children's temperament gradually increased, but Li Qianqian took care of Lan Tang mostly without showing traces.
Yunzhu was waiting by Lan Tang's side, so why couldn't he see it?
"Madame, although she is married these days, but with you, she can't afford to hold Madame's shelf. "This is really good, Li Qianqian laughed when he heard it, and wanted to say to Yunzhu, if you dislike us and bring your wife, just say it!
But probably because she was too tired to hold the shelf of the owner's wife, when she traveled with Li Qianqian, Lan Tang always had a lot of fun, and she was a little indulgent in words and deeds, if she wasn't pregnant, Yun Zhu wouldn't say anything, but she was pregnant, if she was allowed to go on like this, in case she hurt the child unconsciously, Lan Tang would blame herself to death!
"I see. Li Qianqian nodded, these days are indeed a bit too much.
When Lan Tang woke up, the house had already been cleaned up, and she, the owner of the village, was very comfortable, and she didn't have to worry about everything, as long as she ate and slept well and had fun.
But she is not idle all day, no, as soon as she wakes up and hastily freshens up, she asks Yunzhu to study ink for her, and she wants to continue to sort out the medical case.
Yunzhu looked at Li Qianqian without a trace, and waited for her to nod before she did it.
Lan Tang didn't care, but Mother Ye saw it in her eyes, and when she waited for Li Qianqian to wash, she couldn't help but ask, and when she got the news that surprised her, Mother Ye burst into tears.
She has no children, she has been waiting for Li Qianqian all these years, and she has treated Li Qianqian and them as her own daughters, and she is happy to learn that Lan Tang, who has only been married for a long time, is as happy as she is going to have a grandson.
"No, no, Miss Tang is so lively these days, she doesn't have a proper shape when she walks, how can this be, if you accidentally fall and bump, how can you get it." ”
Li Qianqian sat in the bathtub, calmly looking at the always steady Mother Ye as if she was crazy, circling around the bathtub.
She first washed off the bubbles on her hair, picked up the soap and rubbed her arms, until she took a bath, she waved her hand, and the big cloth towel hanging on the screen flew towards her, wrapped herself in the bathtub, walked to the screen, took another cloth towel to wipe the wet hair slightly, and then changed it, wrapped the wet hair, and saw that Mother Ye was still immersed in ecstasy, and did not call her, and went out, Chunjiang was folding clothes, saw her coming out, but did not see Mother Ye, immediately threw the matter on her hand, and rushed over to wait for her to dress.
When Li Qianqian sat on the couch and Chunjiang helped her dry her hair, halfway through the drying, Mother Ye came out with a shy face.
Without waiting for her to speak, Li Qianqian spoke first to stop her, "Mom, don't worry, help me think about what to prepare first." ”
"Yes, yes, it's time to get ready. Mother Ye's mind was quickly diverted, and Chunjiang was confused when she heard it, but it was not easy to ask.
Chunshou came over with the news sent in by Liu Er, and when he saw Mother Ye muttering to herself, she couldn't help but look at it curiously.
Li Qianqian stretched out his hand to take the news booklet, and someone in Shuilan City imitated the hot spring inn again, and also paid a lot of money to win over the king of Shuilan County, but the king of Shuilan County did not take the bait, and ran to Master Li, and reprimanded the other party with righteous words.
Master Li privately complained to the helmsman that the reason why the king of Shuilan County did not come over was because the price paid by the other party was not good enough, and the dividends he got every month at the hot spring inn were much more than the money given by the man.
