"Is it possible for the girl to forget? My uncle got an errand from the Ministry of Officials, and it was entirely because the son of the Jian family had a good relationship with his uncle that he mentioned the name of Third Young Master Chen under His Royal Highness the Prince. The second young master of the Chen family once went to look for Third Young Master Chen and Young Master Jian, but unfortunately Third Young Master Chen did not help him, so the second young grandmother held a grudge against the third young master's family. On the way home, Xianfang carefully told Hui Zhi the reason for this matter, and Hui Zhi listened to these names and things, and her heart was a little irritated - "The affairs of their family are their family, going around and around..."

Xiefang smiled lightly, "The girl has always cared little about other people's affairs, and she has to walk for a while on the road, so the girl will rest for a while." ”

Hui Zhi twisted a piece of mung bean crisp from the food box in the car and ate it slowly, and drank a cup of tea after eating, "Where are you so tired every day..."

Xianfang's face was a little embarrassed: "My aunt and grandmother gave birth to a sister, and I didn't seem to be so happy when I looked at Mrs. Chen." ”

Hui Zhi nodded.

Then he asked, "What is the name of the maid who came to the house in the morning to report the news?"

Xianfang replied: "It's called Qiubai, my aunt and grandmother served before she got married, and she was born in the family." ”

Hui Zhi nodded, and then asked: "I remember that there are two big girls who are close to the big sister, who were with me when I was a girl, one is called Qiubai, and the other is called... What red?"

Xianfang smiled: "It's called Zhaohong, and it's about the same age as Qiubai, but it's more beautiful." ”

Hui Zhi lowered her eyes, "Did you see that?"

Xianfang frowned and asked, "What do you see?"

"Zhao Hong, combed the woman's bun. Hui Zhi said.

Xianfang was stunned. Zhaohong combed the woman's bun - that means that the eldest aunt and grandmother opened the face of the big girl next to her to make a room..."The eldest aunt and grandmother were originally pregnant, and now they have just given birth, even if Zhaohong opens her face, the body deed is still in the hands of the eldest aunt and grandmother after all......"

Hui Zhi's expression was indifferent, "It is so hard for a woman to get pregnant and give birth to a child, she dies for a lifetime, and as a husband, she is not considerate of her, but she still needs someone to serve ......"

It's not easy to be a woman. Then if she gets married in the future, will Senior Brother Pei be like this?

Although he clearly made a promise, he just didn't know it, and it was not credible.

Hui Zhi was distraught.

When I returned home, it was already time to turn on the lights, and it was quiet on Goldfish Street. All you can hear is the sound of the carriage swaying in the street. When she got out of the carriage, the cool breeze blew in the evening, and Hui Zhi gathered the sea-patterned cloak that Fang draped on her body, and her heart was low and irritable for no reason.

Entering the mansion gate, Hui Zhi asked the mother-in-law on the second door: "Is my brother in the study?"

The mother-in-law replied respectfully: "The prince is reading in the study. ”

Hui Zhi's head. bowed his head and said nothing, and when he returned to the Yuhua Pavilion, he asked Aman to prepare two dim sums, a pea yellow, a crystal silver chrysanthemum cake, and a bowl of shrimp and small wontons, with a few plates of small pickles, and took Aman to find Qin Yuan together.

When Qin Yuan saw his sister carrying a bunch of food, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and was surprised: "What's the wind blowing today?

Hui Zhi quietly put the food in the food box on the table one by one, and let Aman avoid the tea room outside the study. There was a hidden worry between his eyebrows, and Qin Yuan, who was bluffing, was startled in his heart: "What's the matter? Could it be that something is wrong?"

Hui Zhi shook her head: "There is no accident. Push the bowl of small wontons to Qin Yuan's hand, "My brother is still thin - I heard that my brother doesn't eat much supper, and he likes to read until late at night... Mother will be worried when she sees it. ”

Qin Yuan smiled: "My body and bones are very good, and I can raise it slowly, I was really not used to eating seafood at sea before, but the shrimp wontons at home taste good." ”

Hui Zhi accompanied him to eat some supper, let people serve tea, removed the cups, and Qin Yuan sat comfortably on the chair. With one arm on the chair, the whole person was tilted to one side, looked at it obliquely, and asked, "Say it." What's on your mind when you're looking for your brother at night?"

Hui Zhi's lips moved, and she hesitated and didn't know how to speak, so she had to say what she saw at Chen's house today: "...... The eldest sister has just given birth, and Zhaohong combed the woman's bun... The last time my big sister went back to her parents' house, wasn't it... I just felt uncomfortable when I looked at it. ”

Qin Yuan was silent.

"I want to ask my brother... If the sister-in-law enters the door in the future. Pregnancy and childbirth... Will my brother be—" Hui Zhi was a little difficult to get these words out of her mouth.

She also knows that the wife of the main family does have to be generous and virtuous...

"When my mother was pregnant with Brother Hao, did you see that my father went to Congqing Courtyard?" Qin Yuan didn't know what he should say, so he had to pull his father in.

Hui Zhi shook her head.

But after all, my father was away from home for a lot of time, and he was in Jiangnan......

Qin Yuan opened his mouth lightly, and looked at Hui Zhi with serious eyes: "Not all men in this world are like Chen Jun, and not all women are like Hui Rong, willing to open a concubine for their husbands. If the girl from the Xia family enters the door, I don't want her to be sad. ”

Hui Zhi was silent.

"Ahem... Even if she gets pregnant in the future, if I do something like the prince, wouldn't I put your sister-in-law in danger? Oh no, maybe it's four or five... 's appearance, the old face turned red again.

Qin Yuan hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a sip of the cold tea, and raised his eyes to look at Hui Zhi, who was sitting next to him thoughtfully.

Fortunately, Hui Zhi didn't notice his face, his brother had never said such a thing, and his brother had never gone to the Xia family to visit the Xia family girl like Pei Gu, so he came to see ...... What Senior Brother Pei said, it should be able to count.

The little love in Hui Zhi's heart came and went quickly, and she thanked her brother softly, and went back to the Yuhua Pavilion with Aman with the food box.

When I got up the next day, although it was pouring this light rain, Hui Zhi also felt a lot clearer in her heart - "Find a few pots of chrysanthemums from the flower room to raise, and then send a few pots to the Zhuqing Garden." After a pause, he thought about it again, "I looked at the brochure in the warehouse a few days ago, and there was a small carved and hollow interstitial screen that looked very good... It's okay today, so I'll help my mother order some more warehouses and send some things to Zhuqingyuan. ”

Zhuqingyuan is in the east of Jiamutang, not far from Jiamutang Yuhua Pavilion, it is a new house courtyard prepared by the mother for the elder brother to become a family a long time ago, there are a few bushes of bamboo outside the garden, the corner door on the side goes out, there are just a few plum blossoms planted, and now the furnishings in the courtyard are being arranged, and Hui Zhi often helps her mother open the warehouse to find something to decorate the past.

Qin Yuan has been living in the study for the past few days, and when he heard that his sister-in-law had moved flowers to his new house early in the morning and counted the warehouses to deliver things, he was happy, changed his clothes and went out of the mansion to find Pei Gu.
