Li Luan'er sat in front of the window, watching the branches and leaves of the trees outside the window swaying by the wind, and the green leaves were swirling in the air by the wind.

Rui Zhu ran into the house, and took a few steps over to cover the window: "The weather is really strange these days, the day before yesterday is still sunny, and the dry ground can be scalded eggs, today is another strong wind, the weather is gloomy and tight, I am afraid that it will rain heavily." ”

"The young master hasn't come back yet?"

Li Luan'er turned around and asked.

Rui Zhu smiled: "Not yet, you don't have to worry, there is a strict one, and the young master will definitely not be able to stand the rain." ”

As he was talking, he heard a sound outside the door, and it was a raindrop the size of a bean that fell, hitting the ground and crackling.

Ruizhu went to the platform to take a few looks, and came back and stuck out his tongue: "It's really rare, it's hailing today, and the lady didn't see the next layer under the eaves, so stay for a while and send a slave to find a bottle to put it up and keep it for winter." ”

Li Luan'er smiled: "You should be careful, after a while the rain stops, don't smash it, I still remember the hail the summer before last when Feng'er collected the ice ball under the wall, but the head that was smashed had a big bag, and it couldn't get rid of the swelling for many days." ”

Ruizhu also smiled: "The slave knows it in his heart, and he will not smash it." ”

Li Luan'er pointed to the white jade water purification bottle on the yellow rosewood bar by the window: "You can take that bottle and help me collect some of it." ”

Li Luan'er didn't know that when she arrived in the capital, she heard people talk about it, it is said that the hail in summer is put away and left in the winter to wash your hands to cure frostbite, and it can be used to wash your eyes to make your eyes brighter, Li Luan'er doesn't know if this is the case, but let's believe it, it doesn't take much effort to collect it after all.

"Okay." Rui Zhu took the bottle and smiled: "The slave must have collected a lot for the young grandmother." ”

Li Luan'er glanced out the window again, and immediately got up: "Ruizhu, go and prepare towels, cook a big bowl of hot ginger soup, and then ask someone to go to the bathroom to prepare hot water." ”

Rui Zhu hurriedly took out several light-colored towels from the cabinet next to the bed and put them on the basin stand on one side, and walked out a few steps around the verandah to the wing, moved out a small red clay stove, and took a casserole to boil ginger soup.

Li Luan'er opened the door a moment later, and saw Yan Chengyue pushing a wheelchair in, he was soaked, his hair was still dripping with water droplets down, and the wheelchair also carried several ice beads, which should have been smashed.

"How did such a heavy rain come back?" Li Luan'er took a towel to help Yan Chengyue wipe her hair and body, her face was full of distress: "If the weather is bad, find a place to rest for a while, there is nothing important at home, and you won't rush back in such a hurry." ”

Yan Chengyue smiled and took the towel to wipe his face, Li Luan'er took another set of clean and refreshing clothes to help him change into it, Yan Chengyue smiled while changing clothes: "It's almost home when it rains, but there is no need to find a place to shelter from the rain, it's better to go home earlier when you have that time." ”

Yan Chengyue changed his clothes, Ruizhu had already brought ginger soup in, Yan Chengyue took it and drank it slowly, and confessed: "Ruizhu, you can get two bowls of ginger water for Yan Yi and Yan Er, don't let them suffer from the cold." ”

Ruizhu agreed and went to boil ginger water again, Li Luan'er smelled the ginger soup, only to feel a smell of rushing nose, so she found some brown sugar and put it in: "The taste is too rushing, Ruizhu, this girl doesn't know how much ginger is put in it, you can drink it, put more sugar to disperse the taste." ”

When Yan Chengyue drank a large bowl of ginger soup, Li Luan'er pushed him to the bathroom to take a hot bath, and at this time the rain became heavier and heavier, as if someone in the sky was pouring water down with a basin, and many potholes were smashed on the ground, and the rain splashed on the ground became white smoke, and the rainwater at the high places merged into a stream and flowed straight to the lower places.

Yan Chengyue glanced through the window and frowned: "I'm afraid that the rain has not reached the crook of the leg in the low-lying places on the street, and I don't know how many people in Nancheng will be flooded by this heavy rain." ”

The terrain of the capital is high in the north and low in the south, the south is already inhabited by poor people, the terrain is low and the houses are not solid, every year in the rainy season, many people's houses are washed away by the rain, and the old, weak, sick and disabled are washed away by the flood and die.

Li Luan'er also looked out the window: "It is said that someone went to the official's house in the spring of this year to be afraid that it will rain a lot this year, and the official family ignored the twists and turns, but Liu Mu also did a serious thing, and when there was no rain in the spring, he hired a lot of people to dredge the drainage pipes in the capital, and several drainage canals were also repaired in the south of the city, and this year should be better than in previous years." ”

"I hope so." Yan Chengyue sighed.

At this time, Li Luan'er seemed to feel a cool breeze blowing in, and the chill on her body was penetrating, she quickly took the bed and covered Yan Chengyue, picked him up and put him on the bed, sat on the edge of the bed and asked: "Don't talk about this first, these ** people who go out early and return late, have you inquired about the affairs of the Zhou family?" ”

Speaking of Zhou's family affairs, Yan Chengyue's brows furrowed even tighter: "This Zhou's family ...... I'm afraid it's not a good match. ”

"What the hell is going on?"

Li Luan'er was startled and hurriedly asked.

"The original family affair was set by my grandfather, the Zhou family boy looked at it when he was a child, he was honest and calm, and he was admitted a few years ago, but he also had a bright future, I thought that this family affair should not be wrong, and besides, the family affair has been set for so many years, and the Zhou family has come to visit every New Year's holiday, and the New Year's festival has never been broken, I also think that the Zhou family is a family that knows the rites, but I have not checked the affairs of his family, nor have I carefully looked at the character of the Zhou family boy, how do I know that this check is really chilling."

Yan Chengyue shook his head as he spoke, and his expression was really dissatisfied with the Zhou family's boy.

Li Luan'er shook his hand and asked, "What the hell is going on, you can talk to me about it." ”

Yan Chengyue thought for a while before carefully saying to Li Luan'er: "Speaking of which, the old man of the Zhou family has a single name, and he has a bit of a reputation in Qingliu, and Wanxiu is engaged to his eldest son, with a single name and a diligent word, when I was a child, I looked at this Zhou Qin, who is also as his name, is very diligent in reading, and there are rules for doing things, thinking that I can't be wrong when I grow up, who knows, people are big, but they are ...... In your words, it's crooked. ”

Li Luan'er, who said a word, burst out laughing: "Crooked? Is it getting uglier or what? ”

Yan Chengyue shook his head: "It's not that he looks good, I see that his character is very problematic,"

Dragged Li Luan'er to the bed, Yan Chengyue hugged her and whispered: "Zhou Qin originally had a friend, a few years older than Zhou Qin, a few years ago in the autumn of the accident, his friend was implicated because of his poor family and no power, he couldn't think about it for a while, he was angry with himself, before he died, this person entrusted Zhou Qin to take care of his only sister, Zhou Qin is good, he has taken care of other people's sisters for many years, so far, the girl is twenty-nine years old, they are all old girls, but Zhou Qin does not say that he keeps a matchmaker with other people's mothers, married this lady well, but it was relying on the relationship of taking care of people, and ...... hooked up with this lady. ”

"Huh?"

Li Luan'er exclaimed: "No, how can he ...... So shameless, that, that girl is happy? ”

Yan Chengyue sighed slightly: "That girl is not good, looking at the soft and weak temperament, but the most scheming, she and her brother both parents died, grew up dependent on each other since childhood, her brother can study and participate in scientific examinations, but it is all the strength of this girl, and I don't know how she operates, a little girl can earn back some silver in a short time, although it has not changed much family background, but in the end it is to make her brother study and progress, her brother died, this little girl is really unwilling, It just so happened that Zhou Qin came to take care of her, so she thought of a way to hook Zhou Qin, and after a long time, the two of them who came and went had a little meaning. ”

Li Luan'er said while listening: "In this way, Zhou Qin is really not much this time, if he is with this one, this ......"

"Miss Chu." Yan Chengyue smiled.

Li Luan'er nodded again and again: "If he can't break off with this Chu girl, I'm afraid Wanxiu will suffer a loss after marrying her." ”

"If it's just this one thing, forget it." The more Yan Chengyue said, the more angry he became: "But there are still several beautiful girls in Zhou Qin's room, I asked someone to inquire about the Zhou family's descendants, it is said that Zhou Qin is also very good to these girls, and the old lady of the Zhou family is very interested in using these girls as people in Zhou Qin's room." ”

"It's not going to work." Before Yan Chengyue's words were finished, Li Luan'er waved her hand vigorously: "Our family is upright, there have been no concubines since our ancestors, and the backyard is even cleaner and tighter, Wanxiu sister grew up in Yan's family, where have I seen those wives and concubines in the backyard, this girl is transparent and benevolent, really married to the Zhou family, Zhou Qin got such a friend's sister again, and there is a beautiful girl with * fragrance, I don't know how many incidents will happen in the future, I want to think about it and worry about Wanxiu, I look at this marriage is not successful, it is not a good match." ”

Yan Chengyue held Li Luan'er's hand tightly: "Speaking of which, we really have to thank Mrs. Zhang for this, if it weren't for her purposeful ventilation report, we wouldn't have thought of investigating the Zhou family thoroughly, I can't say that Wanxiu will marry like this, and when the time comes, we can find someone to cry about." ”

Li Luan'er thought for a while before saying: "I'm afraid that the matter of the Zhou family will not be successful, let's think of a way to call this marriage Huang, but what about the Yizhong Marquis Mansion that the Kang family said, how the Yizhong Marquis Shizi looked at Wanxiu, this matter also needs to be thought about." ”

"I've inquired about this too." Yan Chengyue's efficiency is still quite good, and he has checked the Zhou family and the Yizhong Marquis Mansion in a few days.

Seeing Li Luan'er waiting seriously to listen to his analysis, Yan Chengyue was a little more proud, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Speaking of which, the prince of Yizhong Hou is not bad, although he was born in the Hou Mansion, he can be very upright, and the wives and concubines in the backyard of the Hou Mansion of Yizhong are constantly disputed, the mother of the prince has suffered a big loss from those concubines, and the son was poisoned when he was a child, so he hates the concubine room very much, and he vows since he was a child to find a beautiful lady with a similar temperament as his wife, once he chooses a wife, he will never do anything that is not right to his wife." , There will be only one wife in his life, and now there is no girl in the son's room, and he never goes to the Qinglou when a friend asks him to go, and he can keep it. ”R1152
