Early the next morning, Qiao Weixun and Qiao Weiyuan set off for Hengshun Hutong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As for everything that happened in the small bamboo forest, no one seemed to know yet, and Qiao's mansion was as prosperous and quiet as before.

Ruosu instructed Nishang and Niyue to plant a few acacia trees on both sides of the corridor in the courtyard, and by the end of summer, they could collect acacia flowers to make sachets.

At that time, there were also two acacia trees with thick bowls in the courtyard where she lived in Wenfu, and she liked the light taste of acacia the most, but the old scene was still there, but the old people changed, and she really didn't have the mood to pick flowers at that time.

Qiao Yun walked over from the outer courtyard and whispered in Ruosu's ear: "Miss, as you expected, the small bamboo forest has been cleaned up. ”

He really listened to his own persuasion!

Is this helping him? Or is it aiding and abetting?

"I know, how is Aunt Luo doing now?" Aunt Luo was judged by Second Master Qiao to be the murderer of Aunt Liu.

But if you don't believe it.

Aunt Liu has been hating for nine days for more than ten years, and if there is really justice, it should be time for the truth to be revealed.

Qiao Yun frowned, she couldn't guess what Miss was going to do, she said truthfully: "Aunt Luo is still crazy, when the slave went to see her secretly, she also saw her eating the moldy nest as a baby." ”

Ruosu took a small shovel, squatted down and dug up the soil to cover the roots of the tree himself, and only worked hard for a while, but his nose was sweating, and his white skin was as transparent as jade.

Qiaoyun secretly marveled at the lady's heavenly appearance, and said in her heart that in a few years, she didn't know whose son-in-law would be worthy of her own miss.

"Last time I saw Aunt Wang love to eat osmanthus crisp made in the small kitchen, you go and pack one and let the little girl send it over." Ruosu continued to be busy cultivating the soil, and opened his mouth lightly.

Qiao Yun pursed her lips, she was really confused, no matter how depressed the Bai family was, Miss was also a serious lady, how could she fight with a concubine!

She then asked, "Miss, the slave doesn't understand. Qiaoyun looked at Ruosu with blank eyes.

"If you can understand Miss's thoughts, then Miss can still be Miss? Can you still be a maid? Qiao Yan was rare to be shrewd, she smacked her tongue and took a brocade to wipe Ruosu's sweat.

Qiao Yun rolled his eyes: "You understand, then you tell me about it!" Seeing that Qiao Yan also blinked and was speechless, she obediently went to the small kitchen.

---------

In Lilac Garden, a graceful and luxurious woman reclined on the chaise longue with a shiny complexion.

"It's a good feeling to be remembered!" Mei Zizi used up a whole plate of osmanthus crisp, and Aunt Wang rubbed the gold-painted butterfly, and satisfied summarized the feeling of 'eating'.

Aunt Wang has been too ostentatious in her behavior over the years, and her character is really not treated well by others, and she has been treated with a lot of cold eyes, so it is inevitable that she will become accustomed to it.

Ruosu's 'overture' made her feel comfortable, and Zhao's mother opened the glass curtain and walked into the inner room, and said respectfully: "Auntie, there is news from the shopkeeper Hu." ”

Aunt Wang waved her hand and motioned for a few maids waiting in the house to go down, and the heavy golden bracelet on her hand 'ping-pong' sounded.

"How?" She seemed to be in good spirits, and her peach blossom eyes shone with a different light than usual.

Mother Zhao lowered her voice and said: "The case of the ZJ political envoy greedy for ink investigated by the imperial court this time, Xu is inseparable from the second master. She clicked.

Shopkeeper Hu has been a subordinate of the Wang family for decades, and now he is the chief steward of the Wang family's commercial transportation hubs in various counties, especially the canal. He is the master who sees and listens to all directions, and it is really not difficult to inquire about this news.

Aunt Wang was not surprised, but smiled with her red lips, and her voice was lazy and slow: "The second master's personality, I can't understand it better, there is a cheap picture, of course he won't let it go, Chonglin sent a letter saying that the file has arrived in Dali Temple, and the household servant was also implicated and imprisoned, the second master is his left and right arm, and the emperor has not blamed him so far, it is nothing more than to see the face of the concubine." ”

Zhao's mother knew in her heart that the Wang family had a future born like Wang Chonglin who was thoughtful and good at planning, and her aunt was just around the corner in the Qiao family.

Second Master Qiao wants to fill the big hole that has been missed this time, and he can only rely on the wealth of the Wang family.

"Auntie, or.... This time, I put forward that condition with the second master? "Mother Zhao has long been looking forward to her young lady being raised as a flat wife, and the young lady has been in Huizhou since she was a child, although she is the daughter of a businessman, she has never been looked down upon.

The days in Qiao's house are really not honorable!

Aunt Wang's round fingers turned the gold ring inlaid with rubies on her ring finger, and said with peach blossom eyes: "Don't worry..... Now is not the time, I want Tao Xuanqin to give away the position of his wife, this is called happiness! ”

Zhang's mother didn't ask any more, and said casually: "The eldest prince has been coming to Beijing for many days, but he has not come to Qiao's Mansion for a long time, and he only dismantles people to send letters over if there is something, but something has gone wrong with the divine doctor?" She is still most concerned about Aunt Wang's heirs.

"Chonglin has always been measured in his work, he naturally has his reasons, I'll just wait." Aunt Wang was a little tired, and yawned a few times, let's take care of our spirits first, Second Master Qiao is probably going to come over tonight.

---------

Xiaotingxuan is in the Shiqiao Hutong, which is a small courtyard specially purchased by the late old lady of the Qiao family for Qiao Erye to cultivate and study with peace of mind, and there are only a few leaky windows between the Qiao family's compound, and there is a long road connecting it.

Because Second Master Qiao has not lived here for many years, it seems extremely empty.

Old Mrs. Qiao assigned two rough mothers-in-law and two third-class maids to take care of Xia He's daily life temporarily.

At night, Second Master Qiao got out of the yamen, and a dark sedan chair went straight to Xiaotingxuan.

Xia He's belly has been five or six months, she stood under the corridor, and as soon as she saw Qiao Erye's sedan chair, she greeted her.

Qiao Erye got out of the sedan chair and saw that she was wearing a royal blue group pattern armor and a yellow thread skirt, and her figure was still very weak except for the arch of her lower abdomen. The facial features have a soft beauty, and in front of him, they are submissive, which makes people have to fall in love.

"Second master, you're back." Xia He's voice was softly attached, although Second Master Qiao was middle-aged, because of his tall figure, he showed his handsomeness under the baptism of the years.

"You're wearing too little, you can't be cold." Second Master Qiao took Xia He's hand and entered the house.

Every time he watched her walk towards him, he seemed to go back to many years ago, and that person would call him like this.

The little maid lit the candle flame and brought dinner again, Qiao Erye would come to Xiaotingxuan these days, and the bright-eyed servants saw that once this new 'thin horse' gave birth to an heir, it was a matter of time before he was raised to be an aunt.

Therefore, he who serves is counted as wholehearted.

Xia He served Second Master Qiao and sat down, while she stood beside him and prepared vegetables for him with her own hands.

Under Qiao Erye's deeply locked eyebrows, there was a little loneliness in his dark eyes, and his thick hands rubbed the edge of the case, and his thoughts were ethereal.

The man followed him at the age of fourteen, and it was also in this small courtyard that he was busy with the spring festival, and she would sit with him until late at night, grinding for him, and beating his shoulders for him.

Her existence is always silent, never saying a word, nor disobeying her own will.

Many times, habits are very terrible things, and one day when the person is gone, he suddenly realizes that something very important has disappeared.

The funny thing is that he has never dared to admit that she is just a concubine, and if she dies, she will die.

It was only in the dead of night that only he knew how many times the man appeared in his dreams.

"Second master? What is the second master thinking? But today's food is not to taste? Xia He gently shook Second Master Qiao's arm and asked.

Second Master Qiao came back to his senses, raised his eyes to look at the delicate woman beside him, his gaze fell on her arched lower abdomen deeply, and he sighed: "This time you found the old lady privately, I won't care about you, from now on, you can raise the fetus with peace of mind, and when you give birth to a child, I will not treat you badly." ”

Wandering all her life, Xia He needed such a promise too much, she lowered her head and responded shyly and timidly: "The slave family can save it, the second master can rest assured, the slave family will stay in the backyard in the future, and will never cause trouble for the second master." ”

Second Master Qiao had dinner and did not stay in Xiaotingxuan, but went to Aunt Wang's Lilac Garden.

Xia He touched his lower abdomen, leaned on the column under the corridor, and looked at his distant back with inexplicable feelings.

This is her man, but it is also someone else's.....

The dim light dragged the man's figure for a long time, and she gritted her teeth and stood for a long time before returning to the house.
