The Ning family has both children and daughters, and has been a housekeeper in the house for many years, and has always been heavy on Yan San's musical instruments, that is, if there is something wrong with her, it is also said in the back of people, and it is the first time that she has been so faceless in front of people.

She was stunned for a long time before she said angrily: "What are you scolding me, I don't care about decency for making a fuss like this..."

Before she could say the second half of the sentence, she was interrupted by Yan Sanle's sharp voice: "Shut up! ”

The county lord of Qinghe sighed twice: "I am at home from my father, but the eldest lady has put on the prestige of being the housewife to the uncle, this is the eldest lady's tutor?" ”

Ning was angry and hateful, and made a fuss regardless of whether he was reluctant or not: "I have been boiling oil in this family for so many years, and I don't know how much to pay for the housekeeper's marriage, but now you see that I am old and useless, help her to abuse me, Yan Sanle, are you still human!" “

Yan Sanle was really afraid that she would say something in anger, thinking that she was coming left and right, so she simply did a full set of acts, and raised her hands to fight, Ning screamed, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it sideways.

Old Madam Yan couldn't stand it anymore, and said angrily: "Have you made enough trouble!" Do you have to make my wife angry to death before I give up! ”

Although she didn't like the Ning family, seeing her so embarrassed, the county lord of Qinghe was also disrespectful to herself, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad in her heart, and raised her hand and waved: "You take your daughter-in-law down first, and then we'll talk about this later." ”

Yan Sanle dragged the noisy Ning family away, her eyes fell on the county lord of Qinghe, and subconsciously turned away, originally this banquet was held to knock the county lord of Qinghe, interrogate the Ning family, and let the family live in peace, but she didn't expect to be made a big fuss instead.

She was in a mood for a while, and suddenly felt a lot of weakness in her heart, and sighed: "It's all gone." After saying that, he ignored the crowd and turned around and walked away.

The people below looked at each other for a while, and they all dispersed.

The county lord of Qinghe held the maid's hand and walked forward slowly, and when he came to a clean garden, he turned his head to the maid and said, "It's a little cold, you go and help me get a cloak." ”

After sending the maid away, she slowly walked into the yard, Yan Sanle stood under the tree and waited, she sneered and said, "What? Have you settled down that yellow-faced woman in your house? ”

Yan Sanle smiled slightly, his appearance was only as good as Zhou Zhengswen, but under the smile, there was an indescribable bearing, and he replied: "Fortunately, she didn't hurt the county lord and the child in the county lord's belly, otherwise I wouldn't spare her." ”

The implication is that you can spare her now, and the lord of Qinghe County sank: "I didn't see it, you care about me and the child." ”

Yan Sanle glanced at her meaningfully, and said with a smile: "The county lord is my second brother and sister, and now I am pregnant with my nephew, as the eldest brother, I naturally have to care about it." ”

The county lord of Qinghe stroked his stomach and said slowly: "Is it?" Is it really just your nephew in my belly? ”

The corners of Yan Sanle's mouth sank, and he sighed: "County Lord, there are many people in the house, be careful that the wall has ears." ”

After he finished speaking, he bowed and saluted: "There are many offences in the cheapness, I can't compensate you here." ”

The county lord of Qinghe originally wanted to speak, but after hearing this, he slowly returned the salute: "Uncle Lao is worried." ”

At this time, the maid who took the cloak turned back, her eyes swept over Yan Sanle, and she turned around and walked out.

Yan Sanle stood alone in place, slowly frowning, staring at the back of the county lord of Qinghe without saying a word.

......

Chonglan's little wontons ended before she finished the play, and when she went back, she was still thinking about the bowl of wontons, and she didn't even listen to He Shi talking to her.

He reached out and gently pinched her arm: "What's wrong with sister-in-law?" Why can't you give up? ”

Chonglan was embarrassed to say that he was thinking about eating, and instead asked, "What did you just say?" ”

He said with great interest: "My husband found me a dog a few days ago, let me raise it to relieve my boredom, I saw that it happened to be a mother, and I went back to find someone with a puppy, and I will send you one." ”

Chonglan thought of the harmony in the courtyard, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Forget it, the foodie in my nursing home is almost unable to raise it, so I still have to spare effort to raise a dog, which girl in the house do you give it." ”

He pouted, and was about to tell her about the benefits of raising a dog, when she saw the county lord of Qinghe not far away walking over slowly, and she hurriedly pulled Chonglan and saluted, "Second lady." ”

The county lord of Qinghe nodded casually as a return gift, his eyes fell on Chonglan, and he smiled slightly: "I have something to say to my daughter-in-law, let's go back first." ”

Although He was unwilling, he was helpless, glanced at Chonglan worriedly, and turned to leave.

Chonglan walked with the county lord of Qinghe for a while, and heard her snort coldly: "You can talk, and you can avoid the matter by four or two thousand catties, I was kind enough to help the two of you seek justice, but I didn't expect that I was self-inflicted and made people laugh in vain, are you willing to live with dwarves?" ”

She didn't know the purpose of the Qinghe County Lord against the Ning family, but it was absolutely impossible to help Yan He and Chonglan seek justice, Chonglan just smiled slightly and didn't answer.

The county lord of Qinghe dusted off the non-existent ash on his body with a silk, and sneered: "My daughter-in-law is so generous, I was almost asked for the dowry silver at the beginning, and I don't get angry when I step on my head!" ”

Chonglan smiled and said: "I don't understand what Madame said, and I should usually help my parents, but Jinnian and I really don't have any money on hand, otherwise we would have taken it out for the family a long time ago." ”

Seeing that she only said beautiful things, the county lord of Qinghe County sank, and said with a smile: "My daughter-in-law is virtuous, I will never be able to do it." Don't you feel a pity that you are so talented, and you only care about the one acre and three points of land in your courtyard? ”

Chonglan pretended not to understand the second half of her sentence, and said humbly: "Where did Madame say, I have to learn more from you." Besides, the daughter-in-law is stupid, and it is already thankful that she can manage her own yard, where is there any pity? ”

She didn't bother to say more to the county lord of Qinghe, and pretended to look up at the sky: "Ah, it's not early, and my daughter-in-law still has something to do, so I'll go back first." ”

As she spoke, she turned around to leave, and the county lord of Qinghe was suddenly behind her, and her voice was a little resentful: "Since you got engaged to Qi Guofu, my third brother was sent to Lingnan by my father, the climate in Lingnan is humid, and the folk customs are rude, do you know how many injuries he added to his body when he came back?" ”

Chonglan paused, and then walked back as if nothing happened, Qingyun was in a hurry, and couldn't help but ask her on the way: "Young lady, what does the county lord of Qinghe mean by that?" ”

Chonglan patted her on the head: "You think about it yourself, and ask your wife about everything." ”

Qingyun touched the messy bun on her head dissatisfied, and the two walked towards the courtyard while talking, and as soon as they stepped into the courtyard gate, they saw He and Sa running over happily, opening their furry arms to kiss and hug.

It has grown a lot of meat these days, and Leng Buding rushed over and knocked Chonglan to a stagger, almost not standing firmly.

She picked it up and checked it, and found that she couldn't hold it at all, so she couldn't help but gently pinch its ear: "You foodie, you just eat when you have nothing to do all day, and you go to sleep after eating, and you don't say a few moves, you see how fat you are now." ”

He and he snorted a few times aggrievedly, and the hairy paws pushed her hand away, and after thinking about it, she continued to open it and continue to beg for kisses, hugs, and hold high.

Chonglan couldn't cry or laugh, leaned over and kissed it on its hairy head, it was satisfied, turned around to leave, and saw a person running under the corridor, panting as he ran: "I can't catch up with Hehe running, I didn't startle the young lady, right?" ”

She took a closer look, only to realize that the person who spoke was Yinqiu. At the beginning, Mrs. Yan sent over to Yinqiu and Paper Kite in order to block Chonglan, it was best to let Yan He collect the house, so many days have passed, and the two of them still have achieved nothing, and they are inevitably anxious.

Yinqiu was sent by Mrs. Liu, she has no foundation in the mansion and no confidence, these days she has seen that the young master is obedient to the young lady, thinking that as long as the young lady opens her mouth and lets him accept herself, the young master will definitely not refute her face, so he simply tries his best to please the young lady, just begging her to look down on herself.

The paper kite is different, seeing that Yan He treats Chonglan well, he can't help but be moved, always thinking that he has served Yan He at the beginning, he should treat himself differently, so he changed his way to Yan He.

Chonglan saw that Yinqiu was attentive, and he would not deliberately not give her face, and smiled slightly: "You have a heart." ”

She lowered her head and teased Hehe, and said casually: "Although Hehe is not a person, but he remembers kindness more than many people, I have raised it for so long, you only saw it affectionate to me, how have you ever seen it show its teeth and claws to me?" ”

Yinqiu was not stupid in the end, and hurriedly said: "What the young lady said is that you are kind to Xia, if there is someone who does not know kindness, then it is really a curse." ”

This is not all praise, Chonglan is very generous to the people below, and the rewards and moon silver are better than elsewhere in the house, but the rewards and punishments are clear, and the benefits and disadvantages are stated when the punishment is due, which is very convincing. It was only when she saw this clearly that she dared to come to Chonglan's side to please her in every possible way.

Chonglan nodded, and Yin Qiu glanced at the main house: "There are people who will take revenge, and the demon who is dressed up while you are not there is a demon who comes to the young master in a tone, I am not used to this kind of person." ”

Chonglan frowned, and was about to speak, when she saw Qingge hurriedly come over, and whispered in her ear: "You are in the east courtyard just now, it is not good to send someone to pass the word, but fortunately, you are back." ”

She has always had a gentle temperament, and her face was full of displeasure when she said this: "The young master went back to the courtyard early and went straight into the study. ”

Yinqiu's ears were sharp, and when she heard this, she took the opportunity to give Chonglan eye medicine and said, "Yes, she also specially raised her voice, and deliberately called outside in a loud voice, as if she was afraid that the young master would not be able to listen." ”

As soon as she turned her head, she saw Chonglan's face was not good, so she hurriedly added: "Fortunately, the young master was wise and didn't let her in." ”

Yan He's study is a forbidden place in the courtyard, guarded every day, except for Chonglan, who can enter and exit at will, the others are not allowed to enter even a few personal maids, no wonder the paper kite touched this brow.

But this can't all be blamed for her lack of thoughtfulness, Yan He usually stays with Chonglan as soon as he comes back, and even takes her with her when she goes to the study to read official documents, and now it's easy for Chonglan to be away, of course she has to try her best to show her face in front of Yan He.

Chonglan shook his head and ordered, "Help me prepare refreshments, and I'll go and see the young master." ”

After she finished speaking, she walked straight to the study, and after walking a few steps, she saw the paper kite kneeling on the ground with her head down, trembling, and sobbing with her head down.

When she saw Chonglan coming in, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and she quickly cried and said: "Ask Mrs. Mingjian, the slave maid just saw that there was no one around the eldest young master, so she wanted to bring tea and go in to serve, but she didn't mean to come over, but somehow provoked the eyes of the eldest young master, punished the slave and maid to kneel here, and begged the young lady to save the slave and maid." ”

Of course, she didn't plead with Chonglan, but just used this excuse to explain her innocence.

Chonglan looked down at her, and saw that she was wearing a small white jade hairpin, the silver bell on the hairpin sounded softly, and her body was equipped with silver-white chrysanthemum entwined branches and embryos of the same color.

Chonglan smiled slightly, didn't speak, just turned his head to look at Yinqiu.

Yinqiu really lived up to expectations, jumped out and spat her: "Bah, what is not intentional, you are applying grease and powder and dressing up in the room, is this not intentional?" If you really just want to serve the young master, you can just come directly with a plain face, who will you show the enchanting dress up?! ”

The paper kite's face was blue and white, as if she wanted to reply, but she couldn't bear it, she just lowered her head with red eyes, her face was full of grievances, and she sobbed gently: "What Sister Yinqiu said is that I shouldn't have seen my sister dress solemnly and start dressing up myself." ”

Yin Qiu's face turned red with anger, Chonglan pressed the corner of his forehead, frowned, and said: "Have you made enough noise, you want to make trouble back, don't talk here and disturb the young master's purity." ”

She has always been kind and pleasant, and it is rare to sink her face, and Yinqiu and the paper kite are startled. She turned her head and glanced at the paper kite: "You don't have to come out these days, the monthly routine will be halved, and you can copy a few Buddhist scriptures to nourish your temperament." ”

The paper kite bit her lower lip and answered in a low voice, Chonglan was about to go to the study with a tray, and she suddenly said: "Young lady beware, the young master has just ordered, no one is allowed to enter the study to disturb him." She certainly wasn't kindly reminded.

Chonglan turned her head to look at her with a smile, and as soon as she took a few steps forward, a guard immediately greeted her, bowed down and opened the door to her study.

She walked in with refreshments, and saw Yan He bowing her head and looking at the accounts quietly, she snorted: "You will hide and be idle, the outside is about to turn the world upside down for you, and you are still here to wander around." ”

Yan He lowered his head and poured the tea, the amber tea soup slowly entered the tea bowl, and after he poured it, he handed it to her: "It's just a subordinate." ”

Chonglan sat down beside him, holding the teacup and slanting at him: "Do you really not know or fake don't know, did grandmother send her over to let her be an ordinary person?" ”

Yan and Zhu Bi sketched a few times casually: "Regardless of whether she is an ordinary person or not, can you just treat her as a person?" ”

Chonglan thought about it, but couldn't find a reason to refute it, so he had to resort to a killer move: "Are you a man, and you still care about this with me, so you can't follow my words?!" ”

Yan He: "... Well, she really isn't an ordinary subordinate. ”

Chonglan's eyes widened: "What?" It's not an ordinary subordinate, do you treat her as a concubine? ”

Yan He: "......"

Chonglan bullied him a little, was in a good mood, sat next to him, and asked, "Why did you come back so early today?" ”

Yan He glanced at her, and there was a bit of a sigh in his eyes that only women and villains were difficult to raise, and he paused before saying, "What kind of answer do you want to hear?" ”

Chonglan was stunned: "What? You have several more answers, all of which I want to hear. ”

Yan He took a sip of tea: "The lie is that I came back in the morning when I went to the water master's side, and it happened that there was nothing to do in the mansion, so I simply went back to the house, but I still have to go over in the afternoon." ”

This false words sounded normal, and Chonglan asked, "What about the truth?" ”

He raised his lips and smiled, and the lips of Fengze, who were soaked in tea, curved a full arc: "I suddenly missed you, I thought about it so badly, so I rode back on a fast horse to see you." ”

Chonglan's face turned red, and the joy in his heart was about to overflow, even though the two had been married for half a year, his enthusiasm had not diminished, and he couldn't resist talking about love.

She could only say angrily: "Don't you see you every day, why do you have to leave your business and rush back." She said but didn't believe it: "I think you want to be lazy and go down early, and you used me as a shield." ”

Yan He looked at her duplicity with a smile, and when he saw her blushing, he took out a delicate brocade box from the ground from the ground without hurrying, opened the brocade box and took out Han Lan, who was still stained with dew, and pinned it to her clothes.

"This was picked up in the morning and prepared to be given to you, I wonder if it can prove my husband's intentions?"

Chonglan raised his hand and touched the tender petals, and flew over: "Why don't you dig up the whole branch and dig it up?" I can still take care of it for a while, and within a few days of picking it individually, the flowers died. ”

Yan He smiled at her slightly: "In that case, how can I pick flowers for you every day?" ”

Chonglan's heart was hot, the whole person seemed to be soaking in a hot spring, warm and indescribably comfortable, it was rare that he didn't squeeze him, got up and said: "Okay, for the sake of you being so hearty, please eat well at noon, has the official document been approved?" Let's go to dinner. ”

Yan He slowly sent a wave of eyes over, and Zhan Zhan was like autumn water: "In my opinion, the only thing that can be called delicious is Madame, I don't know if Madame is willing to let me taste it?" ”

Chonglan: "......"

She pretended not to hear, and went out with Yan He, and saw that the paper kite was still kneeling on the ground, but this time her eyes rose a little and she knelt a little farther away.

Chonglan was in a good mood, but when she saw her coldly, she frowned: "Didn't you go back to the house and think about it, what are you still doing here?" ”

The paper kite raised it and said with a panicked expression: "Madame is charitable, but the young master punished the slave and maid for kneeling here, and without his orders, the slave and maid did not dare to get up." ”

It seemed that she had to seize this opportunity to give it a go, Chonglan frowned and said, "You get up and speak first." ”

The paper kite held his knees, slowly stood up, and suddenly shook his body, and fell straight to Yan He, with an exclamation in his mouth.

Yan He's eyebrows were clenched, and he took a step back quietly, and the whole person of the paper kite fell straight to the ground, embarrassed and depressed for a while, his eyes were slightly red, but he had to kneel down and kowtow: "Damn it, the slave almost hit the young master." ”

Yan He glanced at her lightly: "What Mrs. said in the courtyard is what I said, but since you like to kneel so much, then kneel outside the courtyard for a day and a night to set an example." ”

The paper kite's face was pale, if she really knelt outside the hospital for a day and a night, not only would her knees be abolished, but she would also be lost.

She looked up and was about to ask for mercy, when she saw that Yan He had already taken Chonglan away, she was on the ground, discouraged and desperate for a while, and she didn't know what to do.

Yan He really had something to do in the afternoon, and after seeing her, he hurriedly returned to the governor's yamen after lunch, Chonglan sent him out of the courtyard very considerately, and was about to take a nap after coming back, when he heard Qingyun come to report: "Young lady, the second young lady of the Zhang family is here." ”

He Rujin accompanied Zhang Donglan to Jinling, she didn't have a few familiar wives in Jinling, and she didn't want to go to Hefu's side, since the wedding banquet that day, she often came to find Chonglan to talk when she was fine.

Chonglan smiled: "I'm thinking that I'm okay in the afternoon, so invite her in." ”

As soon as He Bijin came in, he said angrily: "You don't go to my place to sit if you have nothing to do, and I have to send a sedan chair to invite you?" ”

Chonglan greeted her with a smile: "You have wronged me, our house has been busy recently, and I can't spare time to see you." ”

She said and looked down at He Bijin, and saw that she was holding a palm-sized white cat in her hand, with pointed ears, long and supple hair, and the rarest thing was that the two eyes were of different colors, but they were both magnificent and clear, and they were very beautiful.

She exclaimed, "Where did you buy this cat, it's so beautiful." She said that she wanted to reach out and touch it, but she didn't expect the white cat to twist her face proudly and doze off in He Rujin's arms.

He Bijin blushed a little and was a little proud: "Donglan is afraid that I will be bored at home, and he doesn't know where to sell it to me." ”

Chonglan sighed: "I'm afraid it took a lot of effort, Zhang Jiang really has a heart." ”

He Rujin blushed and touched the cat in his arms, and in a blink of an eye, he saw that He He was scared, and seized the opportunity to quip: "What kind of intentions does he have, cats can be seen anywhere." If you want me to say that Governor Yan is really attentive, in order to win the hearts of beauties, he deliberately arrested a Pixiu beast and sent a beautiful woman, so that the women of Jinling were envious to death. ”

After she finished speaking, the cat in her hand was carefully handed to the maid beside her, and her own maid came over to take out the soft brush and gently brushed the cat hair stained on her clothes.

Chonglan was about to answer, when he saw someone coming from a distance at the door, and He ran over hurriedly with the dog in his hand, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you come and see my dog." ”

Her eyes fell on He Rujin, and she sighed, and said embarrassedly: "It turns out that the second lady of the Zhang family is here, I don't know that my sister-in-law has a guest today, it's really abrupt." ”

Chonglan smiled and said, "Aren't you also a guest, if there is anything abrupt or not, come and sit down." ”

He walked in and did it, and his eyes fell on He Bijin's cat: "Whose cat is this, the appearance is really good, but the cat is expensive, I'm afraid it's not easy to raise, right?" ”

He Bijin blinked, tilted his head and said: "I think it's very good, well-behaved and docile, and loves to be clean, unlike dogs who like to spread joy all over the yard and keep muddy." ”

Chonglan saw that the two of them were going to fight over this, so she hurriedly said: "Each flower has its own eyes, and if you like it, you can do it." ”

At the same time, she is proud in her heart, and she is still the loveliest and cleanest in her home.
