The night breeze was slow, Qi Xiangsi walked under the grapevine trellis, and Jade put down the snack, "The girl didn't eat much just now." ”
"Can the study over there be repaired?"
"It was repaired half a month ago, the second master has been busy recently, and the second young master will also get married after the fourth girl gets married, and this year the house is full of happy events." Yushi's smile faded as she spoke, "It's just that the girl is still in the hospital, and the sixth girl is still the same age as you." ”
Qi Xiangsi smelled the faint fragrance wafting from above: "Jade, do you know why a woman wants to marry?" ”
Jade was stunned, when the woman was old enough to get married, her husband and children, why did she come from.
"Born a woman, to the thirteenth or fourteenth, when Fanghua was married, married after the marriage, husband and children, and then children and grandchildren, and happy in old age, and finally born with the same family, died with the same hole." Qi Xiangsi slowly muttered these words, turned to look at the jade, and chuckled, "Isn't that so?" ”
"The girl is a blessed person, and she will be able to get her wish in the future." Jade Shi has always felt that the girl is different from the other girls in the house, and the palace maids who enter the palace to serve the master.
"Actually, in the final analysis, it's about living well." In the years of exile, I saw much more things than in the boudoir, relying on my mother's family when I was not married, and relying on my husband's family when I got married, that is, not marrying, buying a house to serve the master, and also having to rely on the master, this is the norm.
"The slave thinks that the girl can live well alone." Jade called Lianxin to get the basket and scissors, stepped on the handrail next to it, cut the hanging bunches of grapes along the side of the shelf, washed them and put them on the plate, "It's the third year, girl, you can taste it." ”
The grapes didn't taste good in the first few years of planting, and this year they cut some jade first, which was much better than the previous two years. ”
"That's what Mother Han meant." Jade smiled and poured tea for her, "Girl, you like sweetness, and you will pick it when it is ripe enough for a few more days." ”
"Speaking of which, have you ever thought about getting married?" Qi Xiangsi leaned back, leaned on the pillar and looked up at the jade, when she first came to the Qi family, the Gu family sent her here to take care of her, if she still stayed in the Splendid Garden, I am afraid that she is already a child's mother now.
Jade shook her head, she really didn't think about getting married, these were arranged with her wife when she was in Jinxiuyuan before, and then she took care of the five girls, and her marriage was also decided by the master.
"Did your aunt persuade you that five years ago, your father and mother asked you to stay in the house for a little longer, and now that your brother has married a wife, they don't want to ransom you back?"
"Auntie has been here." Half a month ago, Yushi's aunt came to her, her younger brother has been married, and her father and mother in her hometown have chosen a family affair for her, if she is willing, she will raise money to redeem her and go home to get married.
"Oh? What kind of people. ”
"He is the owner of a rice shop in the town, nine years older, his wife died young, and he has a child." Jade didn't care very much, "I don't want to get married, so let my aunt push it." ”
Qi Xiangsi's tone was very light: "The maid who has served beside the lady of a big family is literate and has seen the world, and it is a good helper to take care of the shop." ”
"The girl asked me if I ever thought about getting married, now I just want to take good care of the girl, you don't come back often now, Siyiyuan is enough for me to be busy, if you don't dislike me, I will follow the girl all my life." Jade Shi heard the coldness in her tone, and smiled and slapped her shoulder, "Girl, you don't have to worry about me. ”
Qi Xiangsi pursed her lips and smiled silently, looked up at the green leaves of grapes hanging down outside the corridor, and slowly spoke after half a sound: "Okay, one day in the future, I will open a medical hall and take you all there." ”
......
He only stayed in Qi Mansion for one night, and the next morning, Qi Xiangsi wanted to avoid the Summer Mountain Villa, and went to say goodbye to the Gu family before leaving, and the Gu family mentioned the matter of going to Yueyang Palace.
Compared with the attitude of Old Madam Qi and the Wang family, the Gu family was not very enthusiastic about the Yueyang Wangfu and his party: "Since the old lady has ordered, you will come back one day earlier." ”
"Yes." Qi Xiangsi nodded, and Gu Shi looked at her for a while, "Minying, are you quite close to the Fu family's son in the Tai Hospital?" ”
Qi Xiangsi was slightly stunned: "Imperial Doctor Fu? ”
Gu's expression was as usual, and he waved his hand to let the maid who was waiting in the house go out, leaving only Mother Chen: "I was invited to Wang's house a few days ago, I met Mrs. Fu and heard her mention you. ”
"I'm under Imperial Doctor Wen with Imperial Physician Fu." Qi Xiangsi pondered the sentence, she and Fu Rong were not brothers and sisters.
"Then your relationship with the Fu family should be good, Mrs. Fu praised you a lot, and mentioned a lot of things about you in the Tai Hospital, I think if it wasn't communicated by Fu Gongzi, she wouldn't know about this." Gu's tone paused, eased down, and said in a judgmental tone, "Several generations of the Fu family have been imperial doctors, and they have a long history than the Qi family, although the official character is not high, the family style is good, the old lady of the Fu family has won the trust of the first emperor in the past, Mrs. Fu is gentle and easy to get along with, and the Fu family is also a person of good character." ”
Qi Xiangsi was silent.
"It's a pity that my marriage is not up to me." At the end, Gu sighed slightly, and she could hear that she was very sorry, a family like the Fu family had no quarrel with the world, only conscientious treatment and medical practice, and the family was well-off, if Min Ying could marry her, it would naturally be better.
Qi Xiangsi was inexplicable for a while, looking up at Gu's family, this mother who was not very close to her, but never lacked anything for her, looked much gentler than when she first met three years ago, she was different from the Wang family, Qi Xiangsi had thought that if Ah Ying could follow back to Qi's house, she would not be bad by the side of a housemother like Gu's, she could grow up in peace and stability, and Xu Yiyi would be a stable family and live well.
"I know that you are a person with an idea, a woman can not get married, but you must have a foundation for your life, and I am afraid that your father and I will not be able to help you too much in the future."
"Thank you for your concern, and for your daughter's heart." Qi Xiangsi lowered her head, Gu didn't say much, waved her hand and asked Chen's mother to send her out, and when she arrived at the gate of Jinxiu Garden, Chen's mother, who had not spoken, called the fifth girl.
Qi Xiangsi turned her head to look at her: "Mother Chen, please have something to say." ”
"Fifth girl, don't blame Mrs. for not caring about your affairs, Mrs. and the master have mentioned your marriage many times, but there is nothing to do." Chen's mother was also unhappy, "You are only one year younger than the fourth girl, and it stands to reason that this family matter should also be decided, but your wife can't do anything now, and I hope the girl won't blame Mrs. in her heart." ”
"Mother Chen, you are serious, I didn't blame my mother, I personally agreed to go to the hospital, and it has nothing to do with others." Qi Xiangsi smiled and shook his head, "Don't mind." ”
The corners of Chen's mother's mouth moved slightly: "Then the five girls, you are good to go." ”
Seeing Qi Xiangsi leave, Chen's mother returned to the house, Gu was counting the dowry for her daughter, and Chen's mother walked to her side: "Madam." ”
"Gone?"
"The carriage outside the house has been prepared, and the five girls should have avoided the summer villa."
Gu Shi hummed lightly: "Zhuangzi's account books can be retrieved?" ”
"Sent it early in the morning." Chen's mother ordered someone to get it and changed the tea for her, "Do you want to invite the fourth girl over?" ”
"No, you don't." Gu Shi looked at the dowry list, and the appearance of the five girls appeared in front of him, and then sighed, "It's okay, go and invite Yan'er over." ”
————————————————————————
The heat is unbearable, but this year's summer has passed exceptionally fast, staying in the summer resort for more than a month, although it is busy, Qi Xiangsi also enjoys a comfort that is not in the hospital.
A few days ago, she received a reply from Zhuzhou, and it was sent to her a few times in the middle, and there were still people staring at the Fan family and the Ji family, Qi Henian did not reduce his suspicion of them, and in the letter, in addition to the matter of the relatives and lovesickness, he also reported good news to her, and her cousin decided to get married.
At this time, it was already the eleventh day of August, and two days later, the holy car returned to the palace.
The hospital was still two days late to return to the palace, Imperial Doctor Wen and the others went back one step earlier, and Qi Xiangsi followed to pack up and count, and only returned to the hospital on the thirteenth.
After that, the sky in Kyoto City changed, and it rained for three or four days in a row, and on the morning of the seventeenth, the rain stopped, and the day of the banquet in Yueyang's palace arrived.
Qi Xiangsi returned to Qi Mansion a day in advance, followed Gu out early the next morning, and when he arrived at Yueyang Palace, the door was already very lively, and in addition to Mrs. Guan, who was responsible for welcoming guests, there was also Mrs. Ming, the sister-in-law of King Yueyang, and when she saw Gu, she took care of them with a smile: "The old lady is in front, and the princess is also there." ”
"I still want you to welcome guests here, but it's hard work." Gu smiled and became familiar with her, and the third lady of Ming took her hand and smiled happily, "What are you talking about, how can I say it, it is also the Ming family, the princess is greeting inside, don't say that I don't greet well, we are our own family." ”
Mrs. Ming called someone to lead them over, and along the way to the garden, there was an old lady surrounded by someone under the front stage, that was Mrs. Ming.
When I came last year, it was also the height of summer, and after a year, Mrs. Ming still looked so good, Qi Minlan followed by her, Qi Xiangsi also saw a familiar face beside Mrs. Ming, and when she remembered who it was, she turned her head to look at Qi Minyan, and saw some surprise in her eyes.
"Isn't it Miss Yan?"
Qi Xiangsi nodded: "It's her, but she's not..... Married far away? ”
The two of them glanced at each other, and Qi Minyan said in a low voice: "I heard that something happened to my husband's family, and it's over." ”
Naturally, they don't discuss too much about other people's affairs, but the reason why they are surprised is because this Yan family is the maiden family of the former Yueyang princess Yan, and this Miss Yan family is the sister of the Yan family.
Knowing this relationship, seeing the intimacy between Mrs. Ming and Miss Yan's family, and then looking at Qi Minlan on the side, this difference between intimacy and alienation makes people feel inexplicable when they look at it.
"Today is a banquet in the palace, and it is normal for the Yan family to come." Qi Minyan gently grabbed her, and it happened that Old Madam Ming looked towards Gu's side, and Gu took them over to say hello. 166 Reading Network
