Chapter Seventy-Six: The Visit
Narcissus accompanied Qingzhi to kneel in the ancestral hall, of course, although Qingshu was only punished for kneeling for one day, she had to go. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Qing Wu was recuperating in her own garden, and the house was quiet for a while.
On this day, Green Jade suddenly brought a post that read, "Recently, I occasionally invited a noble lady to drink light tea and brocade makeup." I hope the noble lady will try it. Sister sweeps the flowers and waits. ”
"Okay, reply to Mama, I'll be over on time. Ying Qi said to the green jade. Generally, this kind of mother is sent to come over and post.
"Yes!" the green jade went down.
Ying Qi looked at Qingzhi, after kneeling in the ancestral hall two days ago, these two days have been quieter. But after two meals at my own place, I felt a little watery. His face was red.
"Zhi'er, come with me then. Long insight. ”
"Yes, sister!" replied Haruzeno. But there is also a little excitement in his eyes, after all, children still like to play, this is nature.
In the evening, Ah Ling'a came back, Ying Qi reported to him, Ah Ling'a still thought about it for a long time, and then remembered who Ling Zhu was, so he agreed.
"Do you take Qingzhi over, and Shu'er and Sister-in-law too?" Alinga thought about her beloved daughter at any time.
"Amma, the second sister may not like this atmosphere very much, in case the twelfth princess comes to her, it is not good to snub the princess. As for the fourth sister, her body still has to be nourished again, okay, I'll take her there. Ying Qi said indifferently. Take Qingshu to make trouble, Alinga can figure it out.
"That's fine. When you arrive, you can tell Musin to pick him up. Alinga said dryly.
"Thank you Amma. Ying Qi saluted and left.
Two days later, when the morning light was faint, Ying Qi and Qing Zhi got up and dressed up. After getting into the carriage, Qingzhi was very excited.
"Eldest sister, are we really going out to play?" asked Qingzhi as she got into the carriage.
"Third sister, you are all sitting in the carriage, and you asked. You've asked ten times since you got up. Ying Qi laughed.
"Third Miss, we're really out of the house. "The malt was also very happy. She was originally a little maid, the second aunt deliberately sent her who didn't know anything to Narcissus, she did things very solidly, but she didn't understand many rules herself, and the third lady didn't understand it even more when she returned from Beizhuang, and she has been living carefully.
And during this time in Chunguiyuan, Ying Qi directly promoted her from a third-class maid to a first-class maid, and she was even happier. I thought that I had nothing to do with an angry country lady, but now looking back, I was the first to climb to the highest position among the little maids.
Naturally, under the beating of amber, it is more intimate to Qingzhi.
She and Xueyun sat in one carriage with the two young ladies, and even Pearl and Jade, who followed at the same time, sat in another carriage.
Xiyun's house is a little far away, living in Dafang Hutong on the side of Xuanwu Gate, and two big copper lions are guarding both sides of the gate, which looks quite mighty. It's a five-entry compound.
Early in the morning, Xiyun's elder brother Niu Colu Abkai was waiting at the gate. When Yingqi's three carriages arrived, Abkai immediately greeted them.
"Miss Duke!"
"Brother Abkai!" Ying Qi and Qing Zhi both put on their veils and got out of the carriage.
"If you don't dare to be, if you don't dare to be, just call me Abkai. This side please. Abkai smiled and ordered his servants to open the gate and welcome them into the house.
"Aren't you on duty today?" Abukai is already sixteen years old, and because of his handsome appearance and tall figure, he is now working as a guard at the west gate of the Forbidden City.
"Well, it's just the time to take a break today. Abukhai laughed.
When everyone entered the second gate, they saw that Xiyun had already greeted them.
"Sister Xiyun!" After entering the inner courtyard, Ying Qi and Qing Zhi had already taken the veil. Ying Qi happily greeted her.
"Sister Qi!" Xi Yun also walked forward quickly with a smile on her face.
"This is my third sister Qingzhi. Qingzhi, called Sister Xiyun. Ying Qi introduced Qingzhi.
"I've seen Sister Xiyun!" "Basic etiquette, Qingzhi is still fine.
"Harushiba is so cute. Xiyun replied with a smile, hurriedly pulled out a red fei from her hand, and put it directly on Qingzhi's hand. Qingzhi was a little restrained, wanting to break free, and raised her eyes to look at Ying Qi, Ying Qi hurriedly stepped forward and raised her hand, and said with a smile: "My sister is timid." Signaling that Qingzhi doesn't have to refuse Xiyun's kindness. Qingzhi asked Xiyun to put the bracelet on her hand.
"Oops, that's good. I still want a sister like this, you see, I'm just an older brother, and I'm still a big old man. The following two sisters are lively, where is as gentle and cute as Sister Zhi. ”
"You, praise Zhi'er so much, she will be so happy to fly into the sky. Ying Qi smiled. "Let's go meet Madame first. ”
"Of course, let's go inside. My mother was glad to hear that you were coming. Xiyun smiled and turned to look at Abkai: "Big brother, are you going to Eniang?"
Abukhai shook his head. "I'm not going. I made an appointment with my brothers for lunch, so let's play slowly. Abukai took his leave with Ying Qi and the others.
"Go, go, you like to be with your bunch of big five and three thick. Thank you, brother!" Xiyun shrugged and smiled and waved at him. Ying Qi and Qing Zhi also bowed slightly.
The three of them walked with the maids to the inner courtyard.
The yard is full of flowers and the scenery is pleasant.
"My mother's favorite flowers, you see, all kinds of them. If you like it, I'll give it to you. Xiyun pointed to the flower pots on both sides of the road and said.
"You are really your E-Niang's ruined daughter, if someone comes, I will send a pot, there are many people, and your E-Niang's flowers have not been sent away by you?" Ying Qi nodded Xiyun's forehead.
"I won't send anyone else. I sent it because of you, and my mother was happy to send it. Everyone else, even if they touch the flowers, they have to be told by my mother. Xi Yun smiled, and at this time she had already walked into the courtyard, and there were two girls with double buns standing in the courtyard in front of her. It seemed that after listening to Xi Yun's words that were not suppressed, one of the people in the beige dress frowned unconsciously. It was another one in a blue dress, who quickly greeted him.
"I've seen the eldest sister!" the two girls saluted.
"This is An Xiangjun, this is the third lady of the duke. Xiyun's introduction made Ying Qi laugh a little in her heart.
"I've seen An Xiangjun, I've seen Miss San. The two girls hurriedly saluted.
"Sisters, don't be polite. This is a little bit of my sister and I's heart. Ying Qi waved her hand, and the pearl held a pair of pearl flowers and a pair of pearl earrings in the palace that Concubine De had rewarded.
"Thank you An Xiangjun, thank you Miss San. The two girls looked at the delicate beaded flowers, their eyes flashed, and then they both showed happy expressions.
"This is my second sister Shirin, and this is my third sister Xiduo. "The girl in the blue dress is the second lady, and the beige dress is the third lady.
"Eldest sister, my mother is already waiting in the house. Shireen spoke.
"Alright, let's go inside. Xiyun nodded, and led everyone into the house.
Majia Talma, Xiyun's mother, was originally a side branch of the Majia clan, but her eldest sister was the concubine of the auxiliary general Baltu, so it can be regarded as a little kinship with the royal family. It is precisely because of this relationship that Xiyun's finger marriage has basically been decided a long time ago, so Baozhu is so close to Xiyun. After all, the status of the Xiyun family is not very high, and for Baozhu, it will not threaten her status or something. Of course, what will happen in the future, where can Baozhu predict.
Majia Talma sat on the main seat, wearing a royal blue silk embroidered colorful flag suit, a light blue spring silk shirt, a sapphire dragonfly head flower, a pair of Ruyi silver-edged hair, obliquely inserted in the streamer step, a pair of sapphire earrings flashed slightly. It looks dignified and well-mannered.
No wonder she was able to give birth to such a beautiful daughter as Xiyun. Ying Qi scolded in her heart.
"I've seen my aunt!" Majia Talma hurriedly stood up to greet them when she saw Ying Qi coming.
"Sit down, sit down!" said Majatalma, smiling.
It's just a few streets, and there's a lot of traffic. Ying Qi thought in her heart, but there was a smile on her face: "No, it's the first time I came to Sister Xiyun, but the scenery along the way is quite good." ”
"It's just that Yun'er has been busy with the draft recently, but she has been lazy. Otherwise, she should have invited you over to play. Majatalma said.
"My cousin Bao Bai also practices at home every day. Ying Qi said with a smile.
"yes, that's a big deal. You'll all go through it later. Our house is small, but there are no other rare things. The flowers are blooming today, let Yun'er take you to go shopping. Majatalma said.
"When I first came in, I saw a lot of beautiful tweeds in the house, many of which I hadn't seen anywhere else. It's beautiful. Ying Qi boasted.
"Where, where, it's just a little bit of interest to me. Majatalma said her beloved, and her eyebrows and eyes smiled. "In this way, let Yun'er take you to play, so as not to be bored with me, an old mother. Let's have a light meal together for a while. ”
"Where is Auntie, if you walk with Sister Yun, others will think that you are Sister Yun's eldest sister. Ying Qi said.
"You kid, you can really talk. Hehe, let's go play first. I'm going to guard the kitchen and cook you a good meal. Majatalma smiled happily.
"Thank you, Auntie. Ying Qi replied.
"Then we're out, E-niang. You're going to have to stare at the kitchen and do your best to entertain my two sisters. Xiyun smiled and led Yingqi and them out of the door.
