The secret fight in the court has become an open dispute, is this woman also so obvious? If Qiu Chen didn't guess wrong, that white-haired old woman was probably Mrs. Wei Taifu who he had never seen!

With his eyes sweeping, Qiu Chen really saw several old ladies such as the Duchess of Zhao Guo, the old lady of the Tang family, and the eldest princess of Changle, of course, there were also Princess Fu Tang Lanzhi and others standing next to the old lady of the Tang family, these people were standing together. There was another white-haired old woman standing next to her, and standing next to her was Princess Cheng, whom Qiu Chen had seen, and several middle-aged ladies......

Qiu Chen nodded with a smile, followed Chang Jiayi and walked over, and saw that there were more than ten ladies standing there closest to His Majesty Dan, and it could be seen from the dresses that these people were not super noble ladies. should be the most noble group of women in this era except for the palace concubines.

Chang Jiayi walked up, smiled and took Qiu Chen's hand, and said, "My mother-in-law and princesses are over there, I'll take you to meet them!" ”

When he got here, Qiu Chen had someone he knew. She smiled and greeted people she knew, and if someone came up to greet her, she would return the salute...... Chen couldn't follow up, so she had to pick up her own energy and note down some of the raw and half-baked faces one by one.

Because there were so many people, most of them could only stand in the small square outside the palace and wait, gathering in twos and threes to whisper something.

The winter solstice festival is very heavy, and the internal and external women are led to the Kunning Palace to congratulate and see the gift. Outside the Kunning Palace, regardless of the rank, the envoy and the mother-in-law were not allowed to follow in, Qiu Chen wrapped the fox fur cloak on his body alone, put his hand in the mink hand tube, held a small copper hand stove, and slowly walked in.

It's just a false entertainment and enters the palace gate.

After reading the Di Bao for a few years, Qiu Chen already has a general understanding of the relationship between some of the more important officials in the DPRK and China, but the Ministry of Industry is the Qingshui Yamen, and it is the wife of the right attendant, Qiu Chen has not been in contact with it before, so where can he think of those hooks and turns for a while.

While Qiu Chen straightened up, Chen whispered in her ear: "This is Tan Shi, the wife of Huang Peizhong, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works. ”

Qiu Chen turned her head in surprise and saw a woman in her forties greeting her with a flattering smile. Qiu Chen didn't know him, but seeing that the other party was much older, and it was not good to be too big, he slightly bent his knees and returned half a salute.

After walking a few steps, someone smiled and curtsied and greeted: "I've seen Mrs. Jingbei Hou!" ”

Qiu Chen had also entered the palace before, and this time he was much less apprehensive. Motioning for Chen and Yufeng to walk towards the palace gate.

When the car of the Marquis of Jingbei arrived at the palace gate, Qiu Chen helped Chen's men get out of the car, and after standing still, he looked around, and saw that there were noble ladies of different grades at the palace gate one after another, getting off the sedan chair, and then going to the palace gate. After looking around, he didn't see anyone he knew, so Qiu Chen withdrew his gaze.

Qiu Chen was a little late because he wanted to serve Brother Yun, and when he arrived at the palace gate, many people had already arrived, and the sedan chairs of the various mansions discharged the elders under the roots of the palace wall outside the palace gate.

Yufeng is thoughtful, gentle, and Qiu Chen's personal girl, after coming to Qiu Chen's side, she learned to read and write, and also learned to settle accounts, Qiu Chen thought about it and agreed without any opinion.

Chen's is a big scene, and the etiquette of entertainment is thorough. But Chen is now in his forties, and in a few years, he is afraid that he will not have enough mental strength. Qiu Chen pondered about letting her bring someone out, and when the Chen family got older, someone would take over. Chen pondered and nodded.

Qiu Chen brought Chen and Yufeng.

The next day, both of them got up early in the morning, freshened up and changed into court clothes, the sky was dark, and Qin Zheng and Qiu Chen left the house one after another.

Qiu Chen was not reluctant, and after sitting for a long time, he resigned and returned to the Jingbei Hou Mansion. In the evening, when Qin Zheng came back, Qiu Chen only mentioned it slightly, Qin Zheng answered, and the two couples changed the topic.

She doesn't want to see anyone at this time, especially the old family. Looking at the harmony and beauty of the family, seeing the outstanding achievements of the eldest and his wife, and the good wife and children, she was even more sad. She pointed at her son and was angry, who would have thought that she would be seduced by a small drama. She was going to sell all those little dramas, and her son cried and begged her, and even the old one disagreed, saying that these are indispensable for inviting banquets and drinks at home! This is going to her off to death!

Qiu Chen pondered for a while, and immediately took two boxes of bird's nest to visit the Duke of Liang's mansion, and saw that Mrs. Li was lying on the bed with a gloomy face. Qiu Chen looked at it, Mrs. Li's illness was only afraid that it was a heart disease, and she didn't have anything to say, just picking up what she could say to comfort her. She wanted to stay and serve the sick, but Mrs. Li refused.

After two days, it was the winter solstice. The day before the winter solstice, Mrs. Li sent someone to deliver a letter, saying that she had complained of illness and asked Qiu Chen to enter the palace to participate in the festival pilgrimage.

Qiu Chen responded, naturally leaned into Qin Zheng's arms, found a comfortable position for himself, closed his eyes, and fell asleep after a while.

The two of them were speechless for a while, and lay quietly for a while, Qin Zheng took off his robe, moved the kang table to the end of the kang, blew out the candles, pulled the quilt over the two of them, and said in a low voice: "Sleep!" ”

The root of such a thing is Qin Xiuyi, and Qiu Chen, who is a daughter-in-law, is not easy to say how his father-in-law is. She even regretted bringing it up a little. I knew it was for this reason, and I wouldn't have mentioned it when I killed her.

Qin Xiuyi is romantic, and these are naturally indispensable at home, especially after Mrs. Ji went, she was even more unscrupulous, the kabuki and dance dramas were all complete, and the songs and dances of the Liang Guogong Mansion were said to be counted in the capital. Naturally, there is no need for these family banquets, and Qiu Chen has never seen them, so he doesn't have much of a concept. What she didn't expect was that the sixth child was only as old, and the fifteen or sixteen-year-old child liked this before his body was fully developed...... It's no wonder that Mrs. Li and the sixth child look like that!

Most of the noble families like the Liang Guogong Mansion have dancing girls, kabuki and the like, and some have their own opera troupes, commonly known as small operas. They are all five or six-year-old children bought from outside and taught from a young age. These people are inferior to the status of girls, not to mention the sins suffered by practicing, they are big, and they are also the playthings of the masters.

Qiu Chen's eyes widened in astonishment, and in an instant, he sighed softly!

Sighing softly, Qin Zheng's face was ugly and said, "The sixth man has taken a fancy to a small drama and is making a fuss about closing the house......"

Qin Zheng never refused to call his wife, let alone his mother. Qiu Chen knew that he was talking about Mrs. Li, and after thinking about it, he felt reasonable. Children study hard, and mothers may feel distressed, but they will definitely not be so gloomy, as if they have suffered a heavy blow.

Qin Zheng rolled his eyes, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he shook his head and said, "Because she studies hard, she will only be happy!" ”

"I also think that the sixth brother is not quite right, how do you look at it...... Tired, but too tired from reading? ”

Qiu Chen was stunned for a moment before he reacted, Qin Zheng was answering the question he just asked! She turned sideways in surprise and propped her head to look over.

Qin Zheng was silent for a long time, but at this moment he suddenly spoke: "For the sake of the sixth child." ”

Qin Zheng had just returned to Beijing for two days, although Qiu Chen asked, he didn't really expect him to answer, as he spoke, he stopped Qin Zheng's kneading, got up and blew out a few big candles in the room, leaving only one on the kang table. He put down the curtain, curled up on the kang, laid out the futon, and prepared to sleep under the bed. On this day, she was on the street and going to a banquet, and she was really tired.

Mrs. Li looked tired and tired, and her face was not good, although she was powdered, she still couldn't hide the dull yellow of her face. In addition, Mrs. Li's sixth child doesn't seem to be quite right, and she didn't say anything about it when she was close to the banquet, and she looked wilted all night, and she had no energy. She had seen it a few times before, and the kid looked fine, his appearance was softer and more delicate than Qin Zheng's, and his eyes were clear, so he always felt sluggish when he saw him...... Is it sick?

While speaking, Qiu Chen himself pondered in his heart.

Qiu Chen nodded, answered softly, turned his eyes to Qin Zheng and said, "What's going on in the mansion over there?" Why don't you look at Mrs. very happy? ”

Qin Zheng moved over, stretched out his hand to rub her shoulder, and asked, "Tired?" ”

This body was estimated to be embroidered with his head down for too long, the cervical spine and shoulder area are not very good, and it is particularly easy to be sour and swollen on weekdays.

Turning back, Qiu Chen didn't need the girls to wait, sent them all to rest, combed his hair in front of the dressing table, braided it into a loose braid, and then came to sit down on the edge of the kang, waved his hand and beat his slightly sore shoulder.

Brother Yun was already asleep in the car, and Qiu Chen directly handed it over to Wang to take for placement. She watched Afu Aman rest, and turned back to her room, Qin Zheng had already washed up and was crooked on the kang, holding a book, and she didn't know if she had read it. Qiu Chen didn't stay, and went directly into the clean room to be served by the girls to wash up.

Qin Zheng Qiu Chen's car was big, and Ah Fu Aman also squeezed over, and the family of five was talking and laughing, and soon arrived home.

Qin Zheng and Qiu Chen hurriedly responded respectfully, Qin Zheng took Ah Fu Aman, Qiu Chen hugged Brother Yun and saluted together, boarded the car and returned to the Jingbei Hou Mansion.

Before going out, Qin Xiuyi hugged Brother Yun reluctantly, but the little thing was already sleepy, yawning one after another, turning his eyes to look for Qiu Chen, and then he opened his hands to ask for someone, Qin Xiuyi had no choice but to hand the child over, his face was a little tired and said: "This child is a smart one, teach him well!" ”

At the end of the day, the family banquet ended, Qin Zheng and Qiu Chen took their three children and did not plan to live in the Liang Guogong Mansion, so they sat down for a while, and then got up and resigned.

Although it is a family banquet, the scope is limited to the Liang Guogong Mansion, the married aunts and grandmothers are not invited back, and the uncles and brothers in the clan are not invited.

It's not been a day or two to have a reunion dinner in the Liang Guogong Mansion, and Qiu Chen still can't recognize all the people. Those concubines and concubines have no sense of zài, Qin Zheng turned a blind eye, and she didn't bother to get close to Ying Cheng, she just smiled vaguely when she saw it.

When it was approaching evening, there was no need for Qiu Chen to worry about it, Qin Xiuyi thought about sending someone to Tang's house to pick up Afu Aman, and the family got together for a reunion dinner.

Li Shi also smiled, but there were many complicated feelings suppressed in his eyes, and he couldn't tell whether it was envy or something else.

Seeing the harmony between the two eldest sons, Qin Xiuyi squinted his eyes and was full of relief. At the same time, I was secretly glad in my heart that I came back with my eldest son to marry this woman, and since I married her, although my son is still awkward, he has always become closer to him at home, and he has a bit of humanity, and he is no longer cold and wooden-faced.

As he spoke, he let out a long sigh of resentment, which caused the Li family to laugh loudly, and even Qin Xiuyi laughed loudly. Qin Zheng, who was clamoring for flying by Brother Yun, turned his head and glared at her, such a little grinder, she also complained, obviously cheaper and obedient!

Qin Zheng slightly picked the corners of his mouth, which was a response. Qiu Chen saw it in his eyes, sighed secretly, and said with a smile: "Speaking of this, my daughter-in-law's heart is sour, since I beat our lord back, he doesn't want me anymore!" ”

After speaking, he added very complacently: "Kiss me too!" ”

Qin Xiuyi looked at Brother Yun and said with a smile on her face: "This kid is just a painful person." I've just met you for two days, and I know it's so close! ”

Qiu Chen smiled, took out a handkerchief and stepped forward to wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth, took it, but just poured his hand back, and the little thing threw himself into Qin Zheng's arms, and suddenly opened his little fat hand and hugged Qin Zheng's neck, and kissed him with a snap.

The four little white teeth on the top and bottom flashed, and one saliva seemed to fall to the corner of his mouth, and he shouted: "Daddy, daddy!" ”

Qin Zheng got up and helped Qiu Chen up again. The two of them turned around, and Brother Yun grinned and couldn't wait to pounce, but not towards Qiu Chen, but towards Qin Zheng.

Brother Yun kept pounced when he saw his father and mother, and Wang almost couldn't report it, but he still watched his father and mother kneel down and kowtow freshly, so he didn't make a sound, and only watched with black eyes.

After saluting, Qin Zheng will go home.

Qian Shi took two brocade mats and put them on the ground, Qin Zheng lifted his robe and knelt down. Qiu Chen also knelt on his right side and respectfully kowtowed to Qin Xiuyi and the Li family. However, Qin Zheng knelt in the direction of Qin Xiuyi, and he didn't say a word.

Qiu Chen smiled and nodded, which was considered to be the answer. Only then did Li turn around and walk to the chair on Qin Xiuyi's right hand and sit down.

Li Shi glanced at her and said, "What are those girls doing?" It's up to you to think about these things. It's not that I'm talking about you, and I can't be too broad! ”

However, there was no need to argue with the Li family, so he nodded very softly: "Madam knows, I am always careless, and I will remember it later!" ”

There was a smoked cage in the car, and it was very warm. After getting out of the car, Qin Zheng hugged him all the way, and it was not cold, Qiu Chen really didn't feel that his hands were cold, but compared to Li Shilai, who was sitting on the hot kang, the hand temperature was still a little lower.

Qin Zheng and Qiu Chen stood outside the floor flower cover and saw this, they couldn't stand it anymore, and wanted to walk in together, Qin Xiuyi handed Brother Yun to Wang Shi and returned to the chair to sit. Li Shi also got down from the kang, stepped forward with a smile and said a few words to Qiu Chen, and took her hand and touched it, and complained in a low voice: "On such a cold day, why don't you know how to hold a hand stove and look at this hand ice!" ”

These words were a little awkward, and Brother Yun didn't understand it, staring at Qin Xiuyi with wide eyes, staring at his explanation.

Qin Xiuyi laughed even more, kissed Brother Yun again, and said, "This thing can't be smashed, if you smash it, it will be destroyed!" ”

Brother Yun grinned, showed a big smile, and nodded his head vigorously.

Qin Xiuyi was also stunned, and then laughed: "You can't put it in your purse, you have to smash it and put it in?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was stunned.

Brother Yun didn't hesitate this time, and immediately held Yu Ruyi in both hands, and clearly spit out a word: "Smash!" ”

Qin Xiuyi was puzzled, and looked at him with joy at all, "If you don't ride a horse, what are you going to do?" ”

Brother Yun seemed to be a little annoyed and hesitant, his two hands were holding Ruyi and couldn't be separated, he couldn't scratch his head, so he simply tilted his head and rubbed his head on Qin Xiuyi's face, tilted his head and thought for a while, and then said, "No!" ”

Qin Xiuyi was even more overjoyed, and agreed repeatedly, asking, "Good grandson, what's the matter with grandpa?" Do you want grandpa to take you on horseback riding? ”

Brother Yun was also smiling, looking at Qin Xiuyi, who was full of smiles, and called sweetly: "Ah...... Yikes! ”

Qin Xiuyi's heart is beautiful, he who has always paid attention to his appearance, he can't take care of it, his smiling face is full of folds like flowers, and before the girl who came forward to help Brother Yun in a hurry, he picked up Brother Yun, kissed him twice, and said with a smile: "If you are worthy of being my grandson, you know that you are close to your grandfather!" ”

Qin Xiuyi has been paying attention to the little things, looking at him with a smile on his face, watching him stand up at this time, and looking forward to seeing what he can do, but he doesn't want to, the little things don't want the Li family, don't want those girls who are waiting, and they come by themselves.

The little thing looked at the jade Ruyi in his hand, and then looked at the bits and pieces on the kang, put the jade Ruyi on the kang, supported it with two little fat hands, pouted his little buttocks and got up, leaned down neatly to pick up Yu Ruyi, and walked towards Qin Xiuyi, who was sitting opposite the kang, with a swaying drunken step.

Brother Yun'er's purse was specially made by Qiu Chen in the sewing room, which was larger than the purse used by ordinary adults, and it was long and long, and it was worn diagonally on Brother Yun'er's waist like a small schoolbag. At this time, it must have been the Li family who gave Yu Ruyi, and the little thing thought about putting it in. However, no matter how big the purse is, it is just a purse, where can it hold the jade Ruyi that is nearly a foot long, not to mention, the small things in his small purse tilted his head, took out the small candy and bamboo whistle in the purse and threw it on the kang, and then took the jade Ruyi and put it in. This time, one end of the jade Ruyi was put in, but most of it was exposed......

The little thing was completely free from the constraints and discomfort of the unfamiliar environment, and he happily took a jade Ruyi and put it in his purse.

When Qiu Chen and Qin Zheng entered the house, Qin Xiuyi and Li sat on a chair and on the edge of the kang, their eyes fixed on the small meat mound on the kang. Chen's Mama Wang's grandmother, Wang and Steaming Snow were all standing at the end of the kang, respectfully and intently looking at the little people on the kang and waiting.
