Mrs. Li behaved well at the dinner the day before, and Qin Xiuyi, who had not stayed in Hanlian Garden for more than half a month, stayed in Hanlian Garden.

In the morning, Qiu Chen went to Hanlian Garden to ask for peace, and the mother-in-law reported in, Qin Xiuyi also felt that there was light on his face, and it was in vain that he stood up for his eldest son, this daughter-in-law would be a man, he had heard it before, since the eldest daughter-in-law passed the door, she had never fallen in the province every morning and dusk, but Mrs. Li had not seen anyone under the pretext of being ill before.

"The old family's etiquette and filial piety are thorough, and when you come to say hello so early, you know that Lu Dao is a true filial piety, and you will be close to you in the future...... A harmonious family is the way to prosper a family! Qin Xiuyi arranged her clothes and taught the Li family at the same time.

Listening to her husband's words, Li's heart responded, but his face did not show it. She is only thirty years old, and she only had one son before, but because her husband is less close, if she envelops her husband and has a man and a woman, not to mention that her husband is happy, her son will also have a helper in the future.

Meekly responding, Li said: "Today, I invite the ladies and ladies of various provinces to come over for a banquet and enjoy the flowers, and there are my own aunts and aunts, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Xu family to be thoughtful...... The concubine felt that it was better to let the Yang family follow the Xu family to take care of one or two, after all, she was new to the capital, and she had this opportunity to recognize people, and she was also familiar with the human relations in the capital. What do you think? ”

"Ha Luha, I'll just say that you are a thoughtful person, and the boss's family affairs are handled properly, so these things are naturally thoughtful." Qin Xiuyi heard his wife's words, but he only felt that it was reasonable, and he didn't think about it carefully, Ha Luha smiled and praised it, and then said, "It's up to you, let the old family follow...... Well, it's best if you teach it yourself, but you're not in good health these days, and it's more important to take care of your body. Let her follow Xu's entertainment for today's events first, and then teach her slowly when you are healthy! ”

Li Shi felt sour and uncomfortable, secretly pursed his lips, but his face was smiling gently, and he said with gratitude: "The concubine naturally knows that the master of the Dao Dao is cherishing the concubine, and he has just finished the marriage for the boss, and the concubine is really tired, so he just took advantage of the master's care to rest for a few days to regulate and condition the body...... Well, that day, Doctor Mu came to see the concubine and said......"

Li Shi pinched her expression and voice, and tried to make a delicate and virtuous appearance, wanting to bring the topic to the matter of wanting to have a child, but before she finished speaking, Qin Xiuyi became a little impatient.

The lady of the house must have the dignity of the lady of the house, I want to be the Ji family not only has a stunning appearance, but also dignified and elegant, graceful bearing, a smile, a hand and a foot, all show a good upbringing and demeanor, Li used to cry and mourn the face, but also somewhat dignified, now I don't know what evil I have done, I actually learn the little girl to be pretentious...... As everyone knows, a thirty-year-old woman is yesterday's yellow flower, and she is no longer fresh and vivid, and she is such a little daughter...... It's really unappetizing.

If you say that the fresh water spirit is still the dancing girl who just gathered a few days ago, she is in the twenty-eighth year of Huashui, the thin waist is only a pinch, and the body is so soft that it is unbelievable, and you can have fun with any flower work...... Thinking about the style of the slender waist swaying like a willow in the wind, Qin Xiuyi actually became a little hot, interrupted Li's chatter, and dropped a sentence: "Okay, you can do these things just by looking at the placement." I still have something to do, so I won't eat here! ”

Before the words fell, he hurried away without looking back.

Li Shi was stunned for a long time with an embarrassed and annoyed face, and Qian walked in quietly, leaned close to her ear and whispered, "The master went to Yingge Yan Dance." ”

Lee's face was instantly ugly.

Yingge Yan Dance, as the name suggests, is the place where the Liang Guogong Mansion raised the Kabuki Dancer. Although Qin Xiuyi, the Duke of Liang, is amorous by nature, but because of his identity, not everyone can marry and accept, although the two wives before and after are all nobles, and the concubines are all from official backgrounds except for the two ladies who married the girl after giving birth, and there are no lowly women such as Qinglou Kabuki. And these kabuki dancers are nothing in the eyes of Liang Guogong and others, they are just gadgets, and they are kept at home with good picks, and colleagues and friends take a fancy to them, and they can also give them away at will, but the style of this is incomparable to the wives and concubines, and it is inevitable that they will spend more time on these people.

I just got out of my house, and I didn't care about eating early in the morning, so I actually ran to Yingge Yanwu...... This is a slap in the face that is clearly slapping her!

Mrs. Li's face was pale, her teeth were clucking, and her whole body was trembling with anger.

Hmph, still pointing to her to teach him his daughter-in-law? Think beautifully!

After a while, Mrs. Li calmed down the anger in her chest, gritted her teeth and said coldly: "Banquet guests today...... You don't need to inform the Yang family! ”

When Qian heard this, he saw that his wife was still full of anger, and hurriedly responded, and comforted: "Madame, let's dissipate my anger, I invited Princess Fu'an today, and Princess Fu'an also agreed to come over...... If there is that suspicion, it is better to call Yang over. As far as Princess Fu'an's temperament is concerned, there is no need for Mrs. to worry about it, and Princess Fu'an will not fail to make a move! ”

Li suppressed his anger, thought for a moment, nodded and agreed, but instructed Qian: "You go and inform the Xu family, just say the master's orders, let her take the grandmother to arrange today's banquet!" ”

Qian looked up at Li, and when he met Li's gaze, the master and servant smiled meaningfully at the same time.

Qiu Chen didn't know about these things at all, and when she left the Liang Guogong Mansion, she remembered what she said about the banquet in the mansion yesterday, so she said to Qin Zheng: "Yesterday it was said that it was a banquet in the mansion, is it inappropriate for us to leave?" ”

Qin Zheng was holding Afu Aman and introducing the street house outside through the car window, listening to Qiu Chen's words, he didn't even lift his eyelids, and said lightly: "It's okay." I sent someone to tell my father that King Yong invited us to come over to the house today. ”

"King Yong? Wen Yong? Qiu Chen asked suspiciously.

Qin Zheng turned around at this time, looked at Qiu Chen and nodded, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Exactly." ”

Seeing that Qiu Chen was still a little unable to come back to his senses, Qin Zheng said again: "Then Lin Xianniang is in the Yongwang Mansion...... Hmm, haven't you been hanging all the time? You can see it if you go. ”

Qiu Chen nodded and agreed, and Qin Zheng saw that she no longer had any questions, so he turned back and continued to introduce the scenery of the capital to the children.

Hanging his head, Qiu Chen silently thought in his heart, that Lin Xianniang was saved by her, and later defected to Liujiaao, and she also took him in for Lin Xu's sake...... is generous and cheerful, and is close to her, but the utilitarianism is too heavy, and I don't know if it's because of family feud obsession, or because of my own ambitions......

If she chooses an ordinary family to marry, her husband and children will be fine, but she eloped with Yang Jingyu, and was sent to Yongwang's Mansion by Yang Jingyu again and again......

It can be said that this woman is now standing on the edge of the cliff, if she is accepted by Yang Jingyong, she may be able to dance for nine days one day and become the most noble woman in the world. If you are disliked and neglected by Yang Jingyong, it will be the best end for you to be lonely and old for the rest of your life!

To put it bluntly, since Lin Xianniang eloped, she never thought about having anything to do with this woman again, but in the eyes of Qin Zheng, or Yang Jingyong, she obviously didn't think so. In their opinion, Qiu Chen deliberately asked about Lin Xianniang's whereabouts several times, and he was very concerned about it, so he arranged this meeting...... Or, this is also the reason why Yang Jingyong is jealous and tired of Lin Xianniang's hand after Yang Jingyu's hand, but he is still well raised in another courtyard.

As far as Lin Xianniang's temperament is concerned, no matter when or under what circumstances, let her marry an ordinary man with a husband and children, and live a life worrying about firewood, rice, oil and salt every day, and she will not agree at all. What she wants is to get ahead and become a powerful person...... If she begged, or even cried, to help her speak to Yang Jingyong, would she be able to speak?

She didn't want to care about this kind of thing, and she shouldn't care about it, so Qiu Chen didn't want to see Lin Xianniang.

It's just that if he told Qin Zheng so bluntly, would he think that he was ruthless? Speaking of which, she has nothing to do with Lin Xianniang, and she doesn't owe Lin Xianniang anything!

After thinking about it for a long time, Qiu Chen didn't make a decision, but she decided to talk to Qin Zheng before going to see Lin Xianniang.

The car quickly arrived at the Jingbei Hou Mansion on the shore of Shisha Sea, drove into the gate, and stopped outside the second gate.

Qin Zheng got out of the car with the two children first, and then turned around to pick up Qiu Chen.

Two handsome girls are already waiting at the second gate, and one of them is the green kite that Qiu Chen has already seen!

Squinting his eyes slightly, Qiu Chen sighed secretly, and beckoned to the mother-in-law who got off the car behind: "You take the young master and Miss everywhere, watch carefully, don't go to the waterside to play!" ”

Ah Fu Aman's mother and girl hurriedly agreed, took Ah Fu Aman's hand, entered the second gate, and the two children ran happily to the back garden like little birds out of the cage. There are a lot of fish in the lake in the back garden, and they have long been thinking about feeding the fish and fishing.

Qiu Chen followed Qin Zheng to the second gate, and the two big girls with a group of girls bowed down to greet him: "I've seen Lord Hou and Mrs." ”

Qin Zheng snorted slightly, which was considered to be the answer.

Qing Kite bit his mouth and looked at the arm holding Qiu Chen's waist a little stunned, Qing He saw this, and hurriedly took half a step forward, and said with a smile: "Back to the Hou Ye, Mrs., Uncle De has already found the craftsmen yesterday, and now they are all waiting in the back garden!" ”

"Well, what about the Debao people?" Qin Zheng replied lightly, and then asked.

The blue kite also flickered to his senses at this moment, and his face turned a little pale with fear, so he had to hang his head to avoid the smiling scrutiny.

Qing He was secretly relieved to see her so secretly, and hurriedly replied: "Just now, Lord Yong sent someone to send a few cages...... Well, a few cages of poultry came, saying they were for the little master and the little lady. No one in the house has ever served this, and there is no cage, so Uncle De hurried to find someone. ”

Qin Zheng was slightly stunned, turned around and happened to meet Qiu Chen's gaze, looking at the almost hidden smile in her eyes, and couldn't help but show a wry smile.

On that day, Qiu Chen said that it would be good to raise hundreds of ducks, but he didn't expect that the unobtrusive prince would really send a few cages...... He really couldn't imagine what Mirror Lake Xiaoyue, known as the head of the Eight Seas of the Ten Seas, would become after raising hundreds of ducks......

It's just a few hundred ducks...... Liu Jiaao didn't see how many ducks he raised at home, and the few chickens and ducks were also very clean...... Qin Zheng secretly comforted himself.

Qiu Chen stared at Qin Zheng's rare change in face, and finally couldn't help but smile: "Don't worry, leave two or three for the children to play with, and the rest will be handed over to Xiaoxi or sent to Zhuangzi." ”

Speaking of raising chickens, ducks and poultry, Qiu Chen, who came from modern times, was even more unacceptable than Qin Zheng. After all, people who are accustomed to city life, even if it is said to be farming, are a little unacceptable, among which the chickens and ducks running around the yard, as well as the chicken and duck excrement that may be stepped on at any time, are definitely one of them.

Qin Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and heard Qiu Chen smile and said slightly: "King Yong has sent such a big gift, let's also return a gift...... Otherwise, wouldn't it make people say that they don't know how to count! ”

Qin Zheng looked at her with a smile and shook his head, nodding his head very carelessly: "Okay, you call the shots!" ”

What kind of gift in return...... He doesn't care, when the time comes, he just needs to stand on the dry shore and watch the excitement! In other words, he is very happy to see His Royal Highness King Yong's jokes!

The two laughed and entered the second gate and walked all the way to the back garden.

Qing Kite subconsciously wanted to keep up with Qin Zheng's footsteps, but was pulled by Qing He's hand.

"What are you pulling me to do?" The green kite was stopped, and asked a little unhappily.

Qing He was taken aback, completely subconsciously reached out to cover the mouth of the green kite, and then quickly looked at the lady in front of him, and saw that the two of them were walking all the way together, and they didn't seem to hear the movement behind them, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, nodded to the smiling faces of the girls who came over, and dragged the green kite to retreat to the concierge of the second gate.

The two mothers-in-law in the gatehouse just followed the green kite Qinghe at the door to greet them, and at this moment, seeing the two big girls entering the gatehouse, they were also very eye-catching and did not follow, and took two steps back from a distance, talking loudly.

When he arrived here, Qing He still didn't let go of the green kite, glared at her and said, "I can't control you if you want to die, I just ask you to watch the four of us have been sisters for many years, so that we have a place to go and then move...... Don't say that you do things alone, I don't believe you don't know the way, if you do something, the three of us can still live? If you don't die of it, you will explain it for the rest of your life, maybe it's better to live than to die! ”

The green kite glared at Qing He fiercely, and her gaze gradually turned from fierce to depressed and extremely depressed and desperate...... She blinked in despair, shook her head again, signaling that she would not make trouble, Qing He hesitated to let go of her hand, but still held her tightly.

"Let me go, I'm not going to do anything again!" Qing Kite said dejectedly, seeing Qing He hesitate for a moment, he still let go of his hand.

The green kite hung her head and smiled bitterly silently.

Once upon a time, the four of them were big girls, she was respected as the head of the four because of her quick eyes and transparent vision, and she was also the most talkative in front of the Hou Ye......

Perhaps, it was precisely because of the proximity that she was deeply attracted to that man...... A subtle frown, a hint of an almost imperceptible smile, or even a glance can instantly heaven!

But, after all, this seemingly beautiful flower season is just her prosperity alone. The flowers bloomed and fell, but that person didn't even give her a look!

The green kite couldn't even smile bitterly, and walked out with a wooden face. Qing He was worried and scared when he saw her like this, and he faintly gave birth to a sense of foreboding.

She stepped forward and grabbed Qing Kite's arm, and said in a low voice as she walked out: "You have seen what Master Hou is like to Mrs., and you should understand it, Master Hou is good, no one can compare, but it is not something we can think of...... Let's be girls, serve the master well, and in the future, we will have a small servant or redeem ourselves, and marry an honest ......"

"Self-combing?" The green kite suddenly stopped, repeating a word, the despair on his face suddenly retreated, and the whole person became bright again.

Yes, she didn't ask to marry the man, but she thought it would be enough to be able to watch him from a short distance. As for Madame...... Since he was so respectful and loving, the lady must be worthy of it, and she could serve her with all her heart.

In fact, she has long understood that it is impossible for her identity to stand side by side with him, so she silently does what she can for him and the people he cares about, isn't it just right?

"Well, yes, if you don't want to stay in the Hou Mansion, you can ask Madame to redeem herself. Although we are not rich and rich, we can still get the money we redeemed! Qing He explained suspiciously, comforting, hoping that Qing Kite could sober up and understand, and stop indulging in such delusions and causing a big disaster.

Qing Kite laughed briskly, raised his hand and nodded Qing He's nose, and said with a smile: "I'm not talking about self-redemption, I'm talking about self-combing, I don't want to get married, and I will stay in the Hou Mansion to serve in the future...... Well, I'll take the time to ask Madame, and Madame will be able to say yes! ”

"Self, self-combing? Do you want to comb yourself? Qing He listened to what Qing Kite said, and then looked at her cheerful and bright face, and couldn't believe his ears.

Self-combing, that will mean giving up getting married, giving up having children, that will mean being lonely all his life, and even lonely for the rest of his life...... If they weren't forced to do so, how many would have made that decision?

The green kite smiled, but her expression was completely lost from the previous dazed and frustrated, and nodded calmly: "Yes!" ”

"How can you ......" Qing He was anxious, and he was about to persuade when he opened his mouth, hoping to persuade Qing He to change his mind.

It's just that as soon as she spoke, she was interrupted by Qing Kite with a faint smile: "You don't have to persuade me, I have made up my mind." ”

Qing He was stunned, and listened to Qing Kite say again: "I always felt that there was no way out, and I didn't know how to go in the future, but you just reminded me of a word." I...... From the beginning, I never had the luxury of marrying Hou Ye, you are right, the dragon and phoenix among Hou Ye and others are not what we can think of...... I just admire the prestige and personality of the Hou Ye, so that I can serve near the Hou Ye, even if I can't serve in the Hou Ye near as before, as long as I am in the Hou Mansion, as long as I know the Hou Ye well, I can do my part, serve the lady, serve the young master and miss. All I can do is serve people, I do my best, even if it is insignificant, I can share the worries of Hou Ye, I will be content! ”

Qing Kite hadn't thought about this before, and now she was thinking about it and talking, which was inevitably a little intermittent, but her meaning was very clear and clear.

Qing He opened his mouth and looked at the green kite that was bright and fresh again, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

On the contrary, it was the green kite, who understood, saw it thoroughly, and after making a decision, the whole person swept away the previous decline, became bright and brisk again, and touched Qinghe with a smile: "Okay, I know that I won't go and tell Mrs. this rashly at this time, I have to let Mrs. believe me!" Let's go, Mrs. Hou has gone to the back garden, it's not a matter for us to be here to grind! ”

Qing He was pushed to his senses by her, and he still seemed to be a little confused and couldn't believe it, so he hurriedly followed Qing Kite out of the second gatehouse and went straight to the back garden.

Qiu Chen followed Qin Zheng to the back garden, and saw more than 20 bamboo cages on the sidelines, and he was surprised and amused.

However, when she looked closer, she found that although there were two cages of ducks, the other bamboo cages contained a variety of rare birds. Generally, there are not many of them, and most of them are a pair of cages. There are a pair of cranes, a pair of swans, a pair of mandarin ducks that are not much different from ducks, and two pairs of golden pheasants...... There are others that she can't even name.

This closer look, more than 20 bamboo cages look very spectacular, in fact, there are not many, there are only forty or fifty birds in total, and there are different aquatic terrestrial ones, and there is basically no ecological pressure on these birds in a huge back garden of Jingbei Houfu.

After thinking about it, Qiu Chen couldn't help but rejoice, there were only koi fish in the lake of Jingbei Houfu, and the smallest one was two or three catties.

Qiu Chen saw it, Qin Zheng also saw it, and while breathing a sigh of relief, he secretly said that the prince was not too unreliable!

Ah Fu and Aman ran fast, so they were naturally attracted here earlier than Qin Zheng and Qiu Chen.

Qiu Chen watched Aman almost lie on the bamboo cage, hurriedly walked over and pulled the little girl up, and while beckoning the girl to fetch water to wash the little girl's hands, he admonished: "These will be raised in the garden in the future, you can come over at any time if you want to see them." But I want to make three chapters of the law, and one is not allowed to touch them with my hands; Second, it is not allowed to feed indiscriminately, so as not to hold on until they get sick; 3. After playing, you should wash your hands and face, and only after washing can you drink water and eat. You have to remember and do these three, let's keep them, otherwise, we will send them back to your Uncle Wen Yong!" ”

The little girl was a little bitter when she heard the three chapters of the covenant at first, and after listening to the three chapters of the covenant after her mother finished speaking, she found that the three chapters of the covenant did not let her play with the birds, but she could not touch, could not be fed indiscriminately and pay attention to hygiene, which did not need to be said by the mother, but it was not a problem to add some birds...... So, as soon as Qiu Chen's words fell, the little girl Aman jumped with joy and agreed.

Qiu Chen took the water from the girls, pulled the little girl to wash her hands, and said with a smile: "I promised happily at this time, don't look back and leave it behind, I can say okay, no matter which of you violates any of them, I will send them away immediately!" ”

Speaking of the most embarrassing, Qiu Chen had already smiled, and his tone became serious.

The two children are very sensible, and when they saw the solemnity and seriousness of what their mother said, they immediately put away their jokes and nodded their heads again and again.

Qiu Chen smiled again, patiently and carefully washed his hands with soap for the two children, and then let them go to the cage to watch the birds, and then turned back to Qin Zheng, looked at him and said with a smile: "This time you don't have to send it to Zhuangzi!" ”

Qin Zheng shook his head with a smile, and took Qiu Chen to walk towards several places in the garden that needed to be rebuilt.

Because I have read it once, how to revise it has roughly already had a draft, and along the way, the two of them made up their minds after a little discussion, Chen listened beside him, wrote down the results of the discussion between the two, and then relayed it to Ji De, the housekeeper of the Jingbei Hou Mansion, later.

Ji De is also an old man left by Qin Zheng's mother, loyal, Qin Zheng has been at the border all these years, and the property left to him by Qin Zheng's mother and foreign family is taken care of by Ji De. Qin Zheng returned to Beijing from the border pass and got the mansion given by the emperor, and Ji De naturally became the chief housekeeper of the Jingbei Hou Mansion.

Qiu Chen came to see him once last time, but he didn't communicate, and now he saw that he was looking for a person who raised birds and birds, and Ji De also worked hard to go in person, and he couldn't help but sigh that this person was conscientious, not the kind of person who was proud of his achievements.

After a circle, the sky is approaching, and since you are going to Yongwang's Mansion, it will be the hour.

Walking out of the courtyard at the back of the mountain, Qiu Chen waved away the bright sedan chair that came up with him, and took the initiative to ask to return on foot with Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng couldn't see it in his eyes after a few steps, Qiu Chen said so, he naturally wouldn't object, so he simply took a walk between the two of them, let the girls follow from a distance, and the two walked slowly side by side.

After thinking about it again, Qiu Chen spoke: "Lin Xianniang's affairs must be known to you and Wen Yong, I used to treat her like a sister well, but now, I go to see her, I'm afraid that she will ask for something......"

Qin Zheng nodded lightly, and then looked at Qiu Chen with a slight frown: "Are you afraid that she still wants to follow King Qi?" ”

Qiu Chen shook his head: "King Qi and King Yong, there is no difference between her!" Or, King Yong is more interested in her! ”

When Qin Zheng heard this, he retreated with a slight surprise on his face, looked at Qiu Chen and shook his head and said, "This, don't worry, he is not that kind of person." ”

After pausing and taking a few steps forward, Qin Zheng slowly spoke: "You look at him as if he values love and righteousness, but in fact, he is the real calm and ruthless person." …… Since he was fourteen years old, Xu gave him four palace maids to teach after marriage, and later, there were also his own favorite to keep by his side, but now, looking at his side, those people have long since disappeared...... In other words, even if you are asked by Lin Xianniang to give her a message, it is impossible for him to do anything about it...... Even if you keep her around, nothing will come of it! ”

Qiu Chen really didn't expect Qin Zheng to say such a thing to her, so he was silent for a moment and said, "I just don't want to be involved...... Well, I know what to do, and since she is there, I'll go and meet her! ”

As soon as Qin Zheng said this, the problem that had been bothering Qiu Chen before suddenly became apparent.

As Qin Zheng said, Yang Jingyong will not change her words for a few words, and she is not obliged to do things that she doesn't like for others! She doesn't owe Lin Xianniang, and to this point, it is also due to her own actions......

Thinking about it, Qiu Chen became relaxed, and only thought of the comment that Qin Zheng had just given Yang Jingyong, and she couldn't help but sigh a little.

It seems to be amorous, but in fact it is ruthless, such a character may be a necessary condition for becoming a successful superior! A lonely person who is cold in a high place can only be competent!
