Qi Xiangsi came to the Splendid Garden.

After asking a few words of daily life, Gu Shi mentioned that she went to Zhenshui Temple to offer incense yesterday: "If you have the heart, you can go to the back temple to sacrifice a tablet, and let the incense of Zhenshui Temple be offered." ”

"When I was in Huizhou before, I heard the old people mention that it is best to sacrifice the tablet in Huizhou, I am afraid that Kyoto is too far away." Qi Xiangsi lowered his head slightly, if he could go back to Huizhou, it would be easy to do.

"It's the same everywhere you have a heart." Gu Shi picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, "You were five or six years old when your sister died, but you still remember where she was buried." ”

Qi Xiangsi was stunned for a moment, and then lowered her head slightly, she didn't know, even Aunt Wei and Ah Ying didn't know where the child who didn't even have a name was buried, Aunt Lu's brother was still helping his father do things, and the child was handed over to him to bury, according to the situation at that time, I was afraid that the more unknown the buried, the better.

Qi Xiang thought for a while and raised his head: "I remember that Aunt Lu's brother took her sister away for burial, because the nurse said that her sister went early, and it would not be good for her if she did it, so she simply dealt with it." ”

Gu Shi saw that she still remembered: "After all, that is also the child of the Qi family, and I am just going to send someone to Huizhou this time to choose a feng shui treasure for her to settle down, do you remember where she was buried." ”

Acacia only stayed in Huizhou for a few days, and after burying Ah Ying, he set off for Kyoto, where the house of Qi Mansion was in the south of Huizhou City, and Aunt Wei was buried in the north. Acacia pinched the corners of his clothes, and his expression was calm: "I remember that it was buried next to the temple near my home." ”

Gu Shi glanced at Chen's mother: "Which temple?" ”

"There is a temple near Qi Mansion." Qi Xiangsi hesitated, "Mother, are you going to send someone to Huizhou to bury your sister again?" ”

"yes." Gu didn't hide it from her, according to the old lady's meaning, she knew this matter more clearly in order to be able to handle it outside, "Your father has been in charge of the hospital since he came back from Huizhou, and now there is an opportunity for your father to be promoted, and there can be no mistakes at this juncture." ”

For the Qi family, this is a matter of prosperity, if the official's family style is not good, it is inevitable that someone will be caught in the wrong place and lose the opportunity.

Qi Xiangsi nodded: "My daughter understands." ”

"In those years in Huizhou, you were wronged." Gu Shi gently rubbed the ring on his fingertips, and his tone softened a lot, "Fortunately, you came back safely, your father is actually very happy, but he is not good at expressing it, your grandmother and your father both want to make up for the years you lived in Qizhou, but these family affairs are not convenient for outsiders to know." ”

The corners of Qi Xiangsi's mouth were slightly raised, her eyes lowered her eyes and she couldn't see clearly, Gu Shi motioned to Mother Chen to bring the prepared mask: "You take this back and try it, the banquet of the Hou Mansion the day after tomorrow, you go over with me." ”

Qi Xiangsi was stunned, and the Chengye Hou Mansion sounded familiar.

"It's been a few days since you came back, and I haven't been looking for a chance to take you out, there should be a lot of people who went to the banquet in the Chengye Marquis Mansion on that day, and you can follow me then." Gu asked her to put away her face decoration, "There are many rules in the Houmen Mansion, and Mother Chen will teach you some in the past two days." ”

"Yes."

Qi Xiangsi went back, Gu sat there and still didn't move, and when the tea in her hand was changed to the third cup, Mother Chen, who was beside her, couldn't help but say: "Madam, the old lady left this matter to you, this"

"Don't hand it over to me, hand it over to whom." Gu put down the cup, looking unhappy or angry, "I am the mother of the third room, if I don't leave these things to me, can't I let my sister-in-law do it." ”

Mother Chen snorted her lips, she just felt that she had wronged her wife, it was all a mess, if it weren't for the old lady who doted on the old lady too much, she asked more when she came back, where would so many things happen now.

"Poor people." Gu confided these words flatly, she and Aunt Wei had no grudges, and Huizhou's concubine died so miserably, "Resettled properly is also a matter of the old lady's heart, if I miss this time, I don't know when I will next time." ”

The more Mother Chen thought about it, the more angry she became: "Aunt Lu is full of lies, maybe she falsely accused Aunt Wei of robbing her child back then, so that she could leave people in Huizhou, and let the master ignore it and let the evil servants bully." ”

Gu Shi thought, and then looked at Chen's mother: "It's not impossible for you to say that. ”

――――――――――――――――――――――

Yi Rongxuan's relatives didn't have time to try the face decoration, so they asked Jade to bring the burden containing the clothes, took a small box, put the burden inside, and hurriedly left the house with the jade.

Urging the carriage to Xiang'an Street, after getting off the carriage, he walked a little way to the door of a shop, Qi Xiangsi looked up at the plaque, stepped in without hesitation, and put the box and silver on the counter: "Shopkeeper, I want to send something, the sooner the better." ”

"Send something." The shopkeeper's routine was to see what was in the box, and handed Qi Xiangsi a piece of paper, "Where is the girl going to send this?" ”

"Sent to the temple near Qi Mansion in the south of Huizhou City, where there are many trees, buried it along the temple wall." Qi Xiangsi directly used the painting, relying on his memories when he passed by and what A Ying said in the past, he made a rough image of the temple, and then described the buried place.

The shopkeeper looked up and smiled: "Girl, we are following the caravan to send some things to people by the way, and we will pick them up after they are delivered, if you are in a hurry, you have to find someone to send them yourself." ”

Qi Xiangsi pushed the money bag forward, with a firm expression: "Shopkeeper, this is thirty taels, you have to send it over quickly, and when you come back after burying it, I will give you another twenty taels, you see how it is." ”

The shopkeeper stopped, fifty taels to send such a box, isn't there a treasure hidden in it? But what he just looked at was an old box, and there were a few shabby things in it, which were not worth a few dollars.

There were many caravans coming and going in Kyoto City, and some people who could not go there themselves and could not afford enough money to hire someone to send them to Kyoto would piggyback on them here, and the shops here arranged to bring the guests' belongings to their destinations in the caravan.

The cost of transportation is very cheap, one tael of silver and two taels of silver are enough, like Qi Xiangsi's shot is fifty taels, and the shopkeeper has really not seen much.

"With all due respect, the girl has this money, so why don't you hire someone to go there."

"Shopkeeper, I'm young and inexperienced, I'm afraid that I'll hire the wrong person and lose something, you have been doing business here for so many years, even if you don't follow the caravan, as long as I pay this silver, you can help me deliver things." Qi Xiangsi smiled and pushed the money bag forward, "Go as fast as you can, as long as you bury the things inside, you can see what kind of shopkeeper it is." ”

In the middle of the ring, the shopkeeper reached out and directly took the money bag, poured the silver inside into the drawer, and returned the money bag to Qi Xiangsi: "Twenty days." ”

Qi Xiangsi pinched the money bag and watched the shopkeeper carry the box in until he couldn't see it, and his eyes were still staring at the curtain at the door.

Coming to Qi Mansion to recognize relatives is a gamble, then bet again, bet that this thing can be delivered, block the Qi family to be promoted to become wealthy, Guangzong Yaozu is more important than anything else, and bet that the Gu family will hold a chance to crush Aunt Lu.

Leaving the shop, Qi Xiangsi raised his head to look at the darkened sky, and suddenly his cheeks were wet, and the cool touched his skin.

It's raining.

Jade pulled her to hide under the nearest eaves, that is, after a moment of distraction, the rain fell very much, and Jade couldn't hear the rain for a while: "I just told the coachman to wait outside, I'm afraid I can't find here, girl, you wait, I'll go find him." ”

Qi Xiangsi nodded, looking at the people who hurriedly walked by on the street, and the stall opposite where the unknown prophet had set up a canopy first was particularly abrupt.

The rain came without warning, and the people in and out of the teahouse sheltered from the rain seemed to be in a hurry, and even the vendors who had erected the canopies began to pack up their things unhurriedly, and there were fewer and fewer people on the street.

There was a sound of footsteps on the side, Qi Xiangsi looked sideways, only saw the brocade robe, and the feet under the robe quickly took a step back, dodging the water splashing in from the eaves, but it was too late to hide, and it still wet the edge of the robe, and the feet were like the temper of the master, which was quite impatient.

Qi Xiangsi couldn't help but raise his head and look up, and saw a look of impatience and disgust, his eyes were looking directly at the falling rain, and his eyebrows were slightly frowned, which was enough to see how impatient he was with the sudden rain.

Sound familiar?

Qi Xiangsi doesn't remember much.

Sensing her gaze, the man looked down at her, and glanced down at her rain-soaked hem and shoes, the disgust in his eyes floating directly on his face.

Qi Xiangsi is very accustomed to this kind of disgusted look, in the past, she squatted unkempt outside the restaurant and begged for money with Xiao Liuzi and them, and she could always "enjoy" a look of disgust and disgust that was more disgusted than this, what is this.

Qi Xiangsi pouted in disapproval, and a canopy carriage hurriedly ran over in the distance, and when it stopped in front of them, it braked in a hurry, splashing a splash, and then, Qi Xiangsi saw that the young man's face darkened directly.

This time Qi Xiangsi avoided it, disgust and anger are two different things, and the experience of many years told her sΓΉ, so she had to avoid it quickly.

Two guards got down in the carriage, the coachman knelt down in fright when he saw the water splashed on the steps, and the two guards took out the bench from behind the carriage and put it on the ground, after that, Qi Xiangsi saw the young man stepping on the bench, hiding under the umbrella and entering the carriage, without a drop of water.

How disgusted it is to make such an exaggerated thing in the rain, Qi Xiangsi glanced at the wet coachman who was kneeling in the rain, and he didn't dare to get up until there was a sound in the carriage.

Qi Xiangsi looked at the small window of the carriage that was pulled up and muttered, "What a weirdo." ”

As soon as the words fell, Acacia met his indifferent expression, and soon the curtain was lowered, and the carriage sped away, splashing on the ground, as if to escape the rain.
