Chapter 40: Asking for Help

Mrs. Chen hurriedly returned to the main house, and the girls had already served the paper inkstone. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeใ€‚ info

She paused, and a line of delicate little letters jumped on the paper, "Send the prayer post to the Ji family first." She turned to the big girl and said, "Yinglan, hurry up and dress up for me, and prepare to visit Little Lady Ji." โ€

But in an hour, a red carriage stopped by the North Gate Bridge, Mrs. Chen was carefully helped down, and a servant woman had already knocked on the door of the Ji family.

The fourth brother in the door hurriedly welcomed people into the door, and led Lu Gong in front of him: "I received Mrs. Chen's greetings, and I have already invited my young lady, but I just ...... My young lady hasn't gotten up yet, so I asked my wife to sit in the south room for a while, and then we went to urge. โ€

"There's no need to rush." Mrs. Chen said softly: "We are here to ask for someone, we should wait." โ€

"Huh." The fourth brother bowed his body and nodded incessantly, and withdrew from the room.

After all, she is the lady of the imperial court.

After coming out, the fourth brother was immediately pulled aside by Qianying, and asked him softly, "How is it?" โ€

"What's going on." He took a few steps back, "They said they were waiting in the house." โ€

"I didn't rush Miss." Qian Ying pouted in relief, looked the fourth brother up and down again, and said with a smile: "What's the matter?" Why are you sweating? Is it so hot? โ€

"Go, go, go." The fourth brother hurriedly wiped his sweat, "The guests are waiting, why don't you hurry up and serve tea." โ€

Qianying stuck out her tongue, "What about me, don't forget that we are the home of the Jinyi Wei General Banner, don't lose your share in front of outsiders." โ€

As she spoke, she said to the fourth brother again: "I'll serve tea, but it's you, hurry up and urge Youqin." โ€

The fourth brother answered, turned the road and went to Ji Qi's wing, and the Youqin at the door was anxiously pacing back and forth, and when he saw the comer, he hurriedly pulled him to make a silent movement.

"Shhhh

The fourth brother frowned and looked at the sky, "It's almost noon, why are you still sleeping." โ€

Youqin sighed, "It's a long story. โ€

Since the crippled Da Langjun has been getting better, the business of the tea house has gradually improved.

Master Ji went out early and returned late in Jinyiwei, and Ji Sui sat in the store, but it was Ji Qi, who would go to Han Xiao to sit at first, but he didn't go after a while.

She once asked the young lady, why didn't she go?

Ji Qi didn't care about it, and asked her funny: "Brother Han's injuries are not serious, just keep it like this, why can you use it every day?" โ€

She is in a hurry, I heard that Miss plans to go to Yanjing in a while.

Go to Yanjing, what kind of place is that, a military town that has been fighting against Warat Tatar for a long time, if something happens, the first thing to bear the brunt of is over there.

"Then you should go to Brother Han's place to sit more." She instigated: "Brother Han is considerate and considerate, and he is an official ......" If you become an uncle in the future, you won't have to worry about it for the rest of your life."

Ji Qi smiled and touched her head, "We're going to Yanjing." โ€

Miss obviously likes Brother Han very much, but now she has become weird.

This strange feeling, she thought, was probably since she came back to life.

Look, where was the young lady willing to go to the hospital before, but now it is a wonderful hand to rejuvenate, and the medicine is cured.

In the past, the young lady always pestered her to learn from the girl, but now she sits under the porch all night and pulls her to watch the stars at night.

"Look at the six stars in the shape of a basket, that is Wenchang Palace, also known as Sanneng (tรกi, tai)" she raised her hand and pointed to a corner of the sky, "Now the color of the Sanneng star is obscure, indicating that there is a gap between the monarch and the minister, but it is more obscure than before, indicating that the situation is becoming more and more chaotic." โ€

So saying, she turned to the other side and said to her, "Look at the largest and brightest star on the side of Aldebaran, it is the star of the ear, and now the star of the ear is about to enter the city of Aldebaran, indicating that war is about to arise. โ€

She followed her hand, but her eyes were full of stars, and she asked her curiously but ignorantly: "Miss, can you also see through life from the stars?" โ€

"Nope." Ji Qi shook his head, "The fate is determined by heaven, but it is changed by people, heaven is determined to win over people, and people are determined to win over heaven." โ€

She nodded, "It turns out that those fortune tellers are talking big things. โ€

Ji Qi smiled and touched her head, and said approvingly: "Youqin is getting smarter and smarter." โ€

She laughed, and stayed up with Ji Qi for night after night.

Youqin came back to her senses and said to the fourth brother: "Miss went to the martial arts field when she got up in the morning, and she was inevitably tired, and I think it's almost time to wake up." โ€

"That's good, that's good." The fourth brother nodded, "The guests are waiting in the south house, and the young lady will go quickly after freshening up." โ€

After another half an hour, Youqin finally waited for the people in the room to wake up, "Youqin again." โ€

"Miss, you're awake." She hurriedly stepped forward to change her clothes, "There is a guest at home"

"Guest?" Ji Qi stretched her hand and asked Youqin to change into a skirt for her, "What a guest." โ€

Then he fastened the button for her and handed over the prayer note on the table.

Ji Qi took the post, and his face was slightly condensed.

"It's finally here."

Mrs. Chen in the south house was sitting precariously, and the girl behind her kept shaking the fan for her, and it was inevitable to complain, "This Ji family is too cold, why don't you serve the ice when Mrs. comes." There's nothing left when you get on a glass of water, it's really hot. โ€

"You don't have to say a word." Mrs. Chen glared at her, "We are asking for help now, why do we have so many words." โ€

The girl stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.

Not long after, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Mrs. Chen brushed the hem of her skirt and looked at the door.

Ji Qi walked ahead, Ying Ying saluted Mrs. Chen, and said, "I don't know that a distinguished guest is coming, I have been neglecting for a long time, and I hope that Mrs. Chen will forgive." โ€

As she spoke, Youqin had already brought tea and snacks to the table.

"This is my homemade herbal tea and snacks, which can relieve the heat, and I hope Mrs. Chen will not dislike it."

"How so." Mrs. Chen raised her hand, sat down and tasted the refreshments, and couldn't help but be stunned, "This tastes ...... Sour and cool, just to relieve the heat, this is ...... Your craft? โ€

"Yes." Ji Qi nodded, and also took a sip of his teacup, "I heard the girl say, Mrs. Chen has been here for half an hour, and I think the heat is unbearable, so I knead plum meat into the pastry and sprinkle some crushed ice to relieve the heat and relieve fatigue." โ€

"That's good." Mrs. Chen smiled and wiped her mouth, "The little lady is really capable, not only is her medical skills good, but even her cooking skills are a must." โ€

She paused, but saw that Ji Qi was neither surprised nor happy, neither humble nor arrogant, with just the right smile on her face.

She was stunned, this rule, this etiquette, can really be cultivated by the general banner of a brocade guard?
