Chapter 53: Family Affairs

The maids and attendants in the house, Li Ying knew everything in his heart. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoWhich one is going to get married this year, which one can stay for another two or three years, that is the third daughter of the Grange family, and which is the youngest daughter of the housekeeper with a head and a face. She was clear, thinking back to Jing's movements since the beginning of spring, Li Ying had a headache. For example, Qu'er can stay for another year and a half, but her mother released people after the beginning of spring. From the year to the present, Jing's family and the queen mother in the palace have frequent contacts, the dim sum given by the palace during the New Year's holidays, and the products of Yingdu, come and go, and people turn over on their backs.

Xi'an is in the north, Yingdu is in the south, the dim sum in the palace to Ying, it takes more than ten days and half a month, now the weather is not worse than the harsh winter, the food is not good to preserve, I am afraid that it is all spoiled. Anyway, Li Ying never used it. After all, it is a gift from the palace, and there is still face, so it is good to reward people.

Li Ying rewarded half a box to make face for Qu'er.

In the early morning, the birds were already chirping outside the window, and Li Ying squinted, half-asleep and half-awake lying on the bed, not wanting to move. It seems that he is still in space, still stuck in the dream of "last night's stars and last night's wind".

Cui Xiang sighed in her heart, Miss has never liked the vigil of the maid-in-law, and she doesn't know what the situation was like last night. She decided to ask Rue, and although the young lady didn't like to have a vigil, she was only by her side. Madame knew the habits of the young lady, and did not force it, but there was a small room next to the young lady's boudoir, and the maid and the maid also kept vigil in this small house across the wall. Last night, it was Rue in the small house.

Rue Xiang was packing up the bedding in the small house, and when she saw Cui Xiang walking in, she was a little surprised and asked, "What's wrong?"

Cuixiang smiled, "It's okay, Miss No, I haven't gotten up yet, I'll come over to see Sister Rue Xiang first!"

When Rue Xiang heard this, she smiled on her lips and felt slightly bitter in her heart. I have been obsessed with Cuixiang for a few months, and Cuixiang is always a sister Ruxiang, and I can't give face if I don't want to. The people in the house all know that they are all Sister Xiang Xiang and Sister Xiang, this Sister Xiang and Sister Bi Xiang are completely different. It's not that she hasn't argued, she can't.

"Miss hasn't gotten up yet, she was fine last night, as usual, nothing special. Rue Xiang replied with a straight look, and even she began to doubt herself. Usually, at this hour, the lady has already freshened up and dressed. "However, Miss coughed a few times before going to bed", it is the beginning of spring, and it is most prone to typhoid fever.

As soon as she thought of typhoid fever, Rue Xiang looked nervous, and hurriedly said, "Let's go over and have a look now." ”

The two men hurried to the door, and saw that the young lady had opened the window, leaning against the window, looking at the birds of the camphor tree outside the window.

The two breathed a sigh of relief, Rue Xiang quietly retreated, and Cui Xiang and Qu'er picked up the toiletries and did their own thing in an orderly manner.

The moment Rue Xiang came in, Li Ying had already noticed that it came and went, that is, those things. In the competition between the maid and the mother-in-law, she naturally knows that as long as she abides by her duty, does her own thing, and does not cause trouble, she will treat it as if she does not know. Not stupid, not deaf, not a writer. The birds outside the window are more attractive than rue.

Cuixiang is careful, and Li Ying is left to take care of it. Li Ying likes the spring full of spring, willow green and red, and the cyan embroidered silk robe she wears today. Cuixiang combed Li Ying's hair, Li Ying's hair was long and black and shiny. "Miss, do you use a concubine-colored head rope or a hydrangea head flower today?"

The round button grass leaf pattern mirror reflected Li Ying's delicate face, she picked up the hydrangea head flower, played with it for a while, and then said: "Head rope." "It's just clean and neat, but she still thinks the hydrangea head flower is too bright. This hydrangea head flower was given by Li Ling, and it was really during the New Year, and after the New Year, Li Ling went to guard the border again. There were Xiongnu in the north and barbarians in the south, and the Xiongnu disaster was greater than that of the barbarians, and the imperial court also paid more attention to the north.

Cuixiang skillfully tied the head rope, and the crimson and cyan were intertwined, which was very good-looking. She picked up a small bronze mirror again, and behind Li Ying, Li Ying glanced at it casually and nodded.

As soon as Li Ying entered her mother's courtyard, she saw Su Gu and her party working in front of the warehouse for a while, both inside and outside the house. Li Ying had some doubts in her heart, remembering the conversation between Qu'er and Cuixiang, and then seeing that most of those objects were made in the palace, they should be related to her aunt Queen Niangniang.

Mama Xu's eyes were sharp, and when she saw Li Ying entering the house, she called: "Miss Ying'er, hurry up and enter the house, the wind is strong today, and people are so uncomfortable, come in!"

Li Ying and Jing sat down and dined. Divide the case and eat, relatively silent.

Every day is like this, Li Ying has long been used to it, and she doesn't say anything. After breakfast, Jing would chat with Li Ying for a while and then let her go back. Every year, every day.

Today, something is different, there are cakes on this table. Hu cakes have just emerged in Beijing, Emperor Xuan is good at Hu cakes, and Beijing teachers all eat Hu cakes. Hu cake, that is, sesame oven cake made by roasting and branding with fire, is a kind of noodle food invented and made by ethnic minorities in the north. Li Ying doesn't like it very much, if it is accompanied by soup, she can still do it.

"Yesterday I received a letter from your aunt, and your brother's good things are near. When Jing said this, his expression was pleasant, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. That was her first child, raised by her sister's side since she was a child, and she hadn't seen him for two or three years, I don't know if he has grown taller now, who is taking care of the affairs around him, what kind of food she likes to eat now, and what color of clothes she likes! Jing's cognition of his eldest son Li Bu only stayed when he was eight years old.

When Li Ying heard this, he smiled happily and felt sincerely happy, and said with a smile: "Are you going to get engaged, which young lady?"

Li Ying has always been kind to the eldest brother she has never met, and the eldest brother Li Bu often corresponds with the second brother Li Ling, and often sends some interesting gadgets to her, flesh and blood.

"I'm still discussing marriage, your aunt gave me a few points list, I think all of them are good, I don't have an idea in my heart, I want to wait for your father to come back and see each other together. Jing said that the man is twenty years old, and the eldest son will be twenty this year. Marriage, the two surnames are good, the upper is the temple, and the lower is the successor. The importance of the status of the eldest daughter-in-law should be more prudent. Li Bu is the eldest son of the Li family, and if Li Dang has a knighthood, it will be Li Bu's inheritance. The second son, Li Ling, can only earn some military merits and earn his own future. Thinking of Cheng Huan's second son, Jing's heart was also very soft. The second son is on the battlefield, and she is very worried, but she gives the second son infinite trust.

"Daddy will be back in a few days, don't worry, mother. Li Ying said softly with relief.

Jing smiled slightly and quipped: "I originally just sighed that your eldest brother is going to discuss marriage all of a sudden." Look at you again, you're not too young, and you don't plan for yourself!"

Li Ying set himself on fire, of course, he quickly shirked it, and said: "The second brother hasn't gotten married yet, not to mention that I'm still waiting for my sisters-in-law to wash their hands and make soup, and send my sister-in-law to taste it first!"
