Chapter 178: Tune the Tiger

The emperor was finally satisfied with the sketch of the dragon ship, and the craftsmen of the shipyard could begin construction.

Gu Zhongyi invited Qin Ji to watch together, although there was a trusted supervisor present, but the emperor's mind changed quickly, and there were many requirements, they were present to watch, and they could understand the situation in time, and they could rest assured, and when the emperor asked about the progress, he could also answer quickly.

A few days after he went, the emperor suddenly became interested and wanted to visit the shipyard in person.

On this day, Yu Mingzhi was going to Jiang's house to attend Mrs. Jiang's birthday banquet, and at this time, any change would lead to a lot of changes, Qin Ji knew that she would be worried, so she deliberately called a few more people to follow her, and even Mr. Gao disguised himself as a middle-aged guard to follow, in case his condition changed, Yu Mingzhi also sent guards and a maid with strong martial arts to accompany him to guard.

Mrs. Yu was worried about her daughter's health and wanted to go to Jiang's house together, "If you want something, you can take care of it, you see that they have never given birth to a few girls, and they don't know how to take care of you." ”

Zhu'er smiled sweetly and comforted Mrs. Yu: "Don't worry, old lady, this time these mothers-in-law's families are full of children and grandchildren, and the son-in-law also specially arranged for the mother-in-law who has been born and raised to teach us how to take care of Mrs. ”

Mrs. Yu looked at Qin Ji, who was calm and relaxed, and smiled helplessly: "Qin Ji is really reliable. ”

Qin Ji arched his hand, "Please rest assured that your mother-in-law." ”

Yu Mingzhi took his mother's hand, "Mother, it's not good for us to keep Princess Cheng alone at home, right? And the Jiang family is a merchant, and Princess Cheng will lose her identity if she goes, not to mention that because of the Guo family's affairs, Princess Cheng will definitely not give this kind of person a good face." ”

Mrs. Yu thought about it and felt reasonable, and said a few more words before letting the little couple leave.

Qin Ji carefully helped his wife to board the carriage and sit down, staring at her with a gentle smile, "I will come back early in the evening and cook you something delicious to replenish your body." ”

"Hmm. Yu Mingzhi raised his hand and stroked between his eyebrows, but he couldn't erase the faint sickly look between his eyebrows, "You also pay attention to rest, don't worry about it." ”

In the past few days, Qin Ji's condition has not worsened under the control of the pills made by Mr. Gao, and now he is waiting to get the last medicine back from the Jiang family.

I hope to get through this safely.

"It's all up to you. Qin Ji squeezed Yu Mingzhi's hand, then leaned closer and pecked lightly on her rosy lips.

Yu Mingzhi smiled and waved goodbye to Qin Ji.

The men and horses on both sides were ready, and immediately set off on their own.

Yu Mingzhi came to Jiang's house on time, and it was probably the Jiang family who sent someone to guard the intersection, so as soon as she got off the carriage, she saw the Jiang family's family greeting her at the door.

After some politeness, Mrs. Jiang invited her to sit in the main hall. Yu Mingzhi congratulated Mrs. Jiang and gave her birthday gift.

Mrs. Jiang was flattered, the Jiang family is a businessman's family, in addition to the relatives, friends and businessmen who come to the house to drink today, there are also many officials, some of whom originally did not plan to come, but there are many well-informed people in the capital, so when they heard that Qin Shilang's wife and the eldest princess's righteous daughter would also come, they came to Jiang's house as promised.

Mrs. Qin not only made the Jiang family lively and face-saving, but also the birthday gift she sent was also a priceless thing, which shows that the Jiang family still has some weight in Qin Shilang's heart.

Mrs. Jiang thanked her again and again, and pulled Yu Mingzhi to say a lot of good things, until Mrs. Jiang reminded her, and then let people sit down.

As a result, as soon as Yu Mingzhi sat down, a swarm of people came up to try to talk a few words, she kept smiling, but it didn't seem easy to get close, so everyone quickly stepped aside in interest.

Yu Mingzhi took a sip of tea, then glanced at Mrs. Jiang, who had finally finished dealing with all the visitors.

Mrs. Jiang stepped forward with a smile and said softly: "Today's mother's birthday, there is good wine and good food prepared at home, the selection is the best ingredients, and the wine has been treasured for many years, but I don't know if it suits Mrs. Qin's appetite, can you taste it later?" ”

Yu Mingzhi saw that she was not in a hurry, so she should come down for the time being, and when she was far away, she instructed Zhu'er behind her: "You call someone to go to the shipyard to have a look." ”

Pearls nodded and went out to find someone.

A fast horse brought from the Qin family had already been prepared outside the Jiang family, and the guards who had obtained the order immediately set off for the shipyard outside the city. After a while, he came back again, saying that it was Gongzi Enran.

Yu Mingzhi was invited to the main table by Mrs. Jiang, and the Jiang family treated her as a guest and was polite.

She had to cope with another round before she felt tired.

Maybe I've been worrying about too many things lately, so it's easy to get tired. Yu Mingzhi thought so, and then looked at the dishes served by the maids of the Jiang family, although the Tao was exquisite and the fragrance was strong, she had no appetite at all, and took a shallow sip of honey wine.

Zhu'er gave Yu Mingzhi cloth vegetables, secretly tested that it was not poisonous, and was about to say a few words to her, when she saw that she looked tired, she said: "Madam, why don't we go back to the house? ”

Yu Mingzhi nodded slightly.

Zhu'er said to Mrs. Jiang apologetically: "My wife is a little tired, she has to go back to the house, otherwise Qin Shilang will not be at ease." ”

Mrs. Jiang put down her wine glass and said apologetically, "But you see that the guests are full at this time, and I can't leave...... Why don't you ask Mrs. Qin to go to the guest room to rest for a while before leaving? Otherwise, when you go back, Qin Shilang or my master will think that I didn't take good care of me and blame me. ”

She didn't know that they were in a hurry to ask for that medicine, and it was inconvenient to talk about it with others. Yu Mingzhi's brows furrowed quickly, but if he obeyed others in everything, he would be seen with some clues, and then he pinched the handle, and then he would not be able to deal with it, so he said lukewarmly: "No need." ”

She and Qin Ji have been together for a long time, and sometimes they can show a bit of intimidating momentum when they talk and do things.

When Mrs. Jiang saw that Mrs. Qin, who was originally polite and kind, suddenly there was an undoubted objection in her words, she was stunned for a moment, and said with a sneer: "Mrs. Qin, please." She confessed to the others, and then walked to the courtyard to the east with Yu Mingzhi, "Our warehouse is over there." ”

Zhu'er and Jing'er followed closely behind Yu Mingzhi, and three or four other mothers-in-law from the Qin family followed not far behind.

Mrs. Jiang looked at the co-pilot, a gloomy light flashed in her eyes, and she smiled brightly and harmlessly when she faced Yu Mingzhi, "This is it, Mrs. Qin." She took out a green bag from her bosom, took a key contained in it and opened the door of the warehouse, "There are a lot of things, so at first I didn't know that there was something Qin Shilang wanted." ”

The door opened, and there was a faint musty smell mixed with a certain spice.

"Mrs. Qin, please. Mrs. Jiang's seriousness began to flicker uncontrollably.

Yu Mingzhi didn't move.

Zhu'er said: "How can you bother the lady to come in person to take things, it should be what our slaves and maids should do." (To be continued.) )
