The New Year is coming as scheduled, and the Li Mansion is lively and peaceful. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mrs. Li was busy with the New Year's gifts, and Li Zhizhi came to Li Guan to play.

Li Guan's energy is not the same as in the past, so he asked the little maid to accompany him to build a snowman in the yard.

Xun Fang and Zhu Fang sorted out the gifts sent from outside.

"Uncle Rong's, Ibis Girl's, Bofu's, Gu Gongzi's, Jinxianghou's, Sixth Miss'...... Hey? Chu Fang rummaged through a pile of gift boxes, revealing a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong?" Li Guan was looking into the courtyard through the window sash covered with cellophane, and turned his head to look at it when he heard the words.

"It's okay, it's okay! I'm afraid I'll miss it! ”

Li Guan smiled and didn't ask any more.

Xun Fang turned his back to Li Guan and showed an inquiring look at Cai Fang, and Chu Fang said quietly: "Let's put the things in the warehouse!" ”

The two of them went out with a tray for the gift box.

"What's going on?" Xun Fang asked.

"It's nothing." Xuan Fang said, "I'm just a little surprised, Dong Sanye didn't send anything!" ”

Xun Fang also reacted when she heard it, "Yes, this kind of opportunity to please our young lady, Dong Sanye has no reason to let it go......"

"Hey, whatever, Miss doesn't lack his stuff anyway! It's better not to send it, save us trouble! Zhu Fang said with a grin, "Let's hurry up, Miss asked Miss Six to go to the Treasure Embroidery Workshop to see the clothes in the afternoon!" ”

In the afternoon, Li Guan took a nap and prepared to go to Jinxiang Houfu to pick up Wang Manqing.

Xun Fang was serving Li Guan to change his clothes, and Hewang suddenly came in from outside with a solemn expression.

"What's wrong?" Li Wan glanced at her.

"Miss, there's a letter from the Qiao family."

"Really?" Li Guan's face was overjoyed, but then he noticed that Hewang's face was wrong, and his smile narrowed slightly, "What happened?" Is it that the Qiao family is unwilling to take care of Manqing's affairs? ”

Hewang shook his head, as if he couldn't speak, "Qiao's family...... Josmine he ...... I passed away a month ago ......"

What the?

Li Guan's eyes widened involuntarily, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"How so? Could it be a mistake? She said hurriedly, and after asking, she felt that she had asked a stupid question, life and death are not a joke.

Naturally, Hewang did not answer.

Li Guan asked again: "Do you know what the disease is?" ”

"It is said to be a heart disease, and he has been seriously ill for more than half a year before his death......

Li Wan was silent for a while before slowly sitting down on the edge of the table.

"It's all my fault! I should have noticed it sooner! Her eyes were full of self-blame, "It's been so long since Manqing's handwritten letter was delivered to Qiao's family, how could Qiao's family not react at all?" Something must have happened! ”

"Miss, how can I blame you for this!" He Wang said, "The Qiao family is low-key, and Qiao Siming has always lived in a simple place, so it is easy not to come out and move around, otherwise our people will not hand over Miss Six's handwritten book to Master Qiao." Besides, Qiao Si is old tomorrow, illness is inevitable, and outsiders won't think much about it even if they hear any rumors, who knows that he will die of illness suddenly! ”

"No, I was negligent!" Li Guan lowered his head slightly, "I promised that Manqing would help her contact the Qiao family, but during this time, I have been entangled in my emotions and have no time to take care of others, and I have no intention of planning for her at all...... She trusts me so much...... Before Wang Taijun died, Manqing must have been waiting for someone from her grandfather's family to come to see her and take her out of the cage in the Rongning Marquis Mansion...... If I could find someone from the Qiao family in time, she wouldn't be as ...... as she is today I was the one who betrayed her trust! ”

Hewang squatted down, held Li Guan's knees, and said softly: "Miss, don't take all the responsibility on yourself. Miss Six's encounter was caused by Rong Ninghou's ruthless and unrighteous villain, and it had nothing to do with others. If you have to blame, it's my fault, you left the matter to me, but I didn't do it......"

"I don't blame you." Li Wan shook his head, "The affairs over there in Jiangnan have already made you anxious, and finally being able to pull the Jiang family to burn silver for the military is already the biggest gain, and you are also lacking ......in skills," she said and took a deep breath, "The matter has come to this, let's stop worrying about whose fault it is, the most important thing at the moment is to figure out the mind of the Qiao family, Qiao Siming is gone, then Master Qiao is the head of the Qiao family, as long as he is willing to stand up for Man Qing, our goal can be achieved!" ”

"So what do we do now?"

Li Wan thought for a while and said, "Send a letter to Manqing first, just say that I have something to do temporarily, and I won't go to her today." Then you send a thoughtful person to Qiao's house, and it is best to have a detailed discussion with Master Qiao in person. ”

"I understand, I'll arrange it!" Crane hope went away.

After all, it was Manqing's long-awaited grandfather, Li Guan felt that he should tell her the news of Qiao Siming's death as soon as possible, and went to Jinxiang Houfu early the next morning.

The carriage stopped in front of the weeping flower gate, and Hewang helped Li Guan get out of the car, and the mother-in-law at the door respectfully welcomed them in.

Li Guan This is the first time to come to Jinxiang Houfu, a year ago, only let Hewang send some daily necessities, she came back the night she got cold, was locked in the room by Mrs. Li, and could not go out for several days.

Geyi's mansion was originally the garden of an eldest princess, the princess liked luxury, and the mansion was extremely gorgeous, with carved beams and paintings, gold bricks and jade.

Li Guan secretly slandered in his heart, this garden is a good match for Ge Yi.

Wang Manqing lives in the dark incense pavilion next to the main courtyard, and there are more than a dozen plum trees planted in the courtyard, and the fragrance floats in the middle of winter.

The maid led them through the flower tree and walked inside, and a pink figure greeted them.

"Guan'er, you're here!" Wang Manqing took Li Guan's hand, and the two walked side by side towards the house.

Li Guan sat on the warm kang with a big red brocade mat, and looked at the furnishings in the house while drinking tea, without covering up a bit.

Wang Manqing couldn't help but wonder: "What do you see? ”

Li Wan looked at the house in a serious way, and then said: "It depends on whether you live in a gold house or a silver house, otherwise you don't want to go to the Lotus Pavilion to sit in the Lotus Pavilion if I wear out my mouth!" ”

"What nonsense!" Wang Manqing couldn't cry or laugh.

A maid standing next to Wang Manqing smiled when she saw this: "Our young lady is quiet and doesn't like to go out, I have been serving young lady for some days, except for Hou Ye who accompanied me to the street a few times, I haven't gone out by myself, Miss Li don't mind." ”

Li Wan couldn't help but glance at this maid, smiled faintly, and said, "I'm very good at talking, what's my name?" ”

"Miss Xie Li praised, and the slave maid was called Pu Jia."

"Pu Jia?" Li Guan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Where is Bai Lu?" ”

Pu Jia pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Miss said that you came to see her early in the morning, and you definitely won't have breakfast, so she specially instructed Bai Lu to go to the kitchen to prepare your favorite food." ”
