Chapter Twenty-Nine: Listening

Qiao Wei went out and called Routao, who had been guarding not far away, and confessed a few times.

After a while, a grandmother came over with a little girl who had just left her head.

Qiao Wei grinned and took her hand and went into the house again.

When Yi Rui saw it, he called her and said, "Juan'er, come and kowtow to our young lady." ”

Juan'er was born extremely thin, with dark pupils and a pair of sparkling eyes, which made her look big on her small face. The appearance has not yet grown, and it looks a little timid. When she saw her mother, a smile appeared on her lips, and her whole little face suddenly became a little vivid.

She listened to her mother's words, knelt down very skillfully, kowtowed to Jinyi three times in a dignified manner, stood up, and showed a very honest and wooden look on her face again.

Jin Yi looked at her and laughed, this little girl's face became so fast. It seems that he is really a child who has seen people's faces since he was a child and grew up in suffering, and he knows that he is smart in his arms so that no one can see it, but he is really a clever person.

Yi Rui said on the side: "Miss, Juan'er is still a little clever, and her mouth is also tight. Miss Qiaowei bothered to discipline for two more years, and she could also do some rough work. ”

Jin Yi smiled and nodded slightly, looked at her and said, "Juan'er, are you willing to follow me?" ”

Juan'er followed her mother to the capital this time, and her mother told her about the matter. Their mother and daughter have been dependent on each other for all these years, and she can also see her mother's intention to keep her.

She is a smart person, and she was reluctant to give up her mother, but she thought that she could fulfill her wish for her mother, and she thought that after her mother returned home, the family would no longer dare to treat her harshly, and she would be better in the future, and her mother would be able to rely on her for a few days in the rest of her life, so she agreed.

Her voice was crisp, "Juan'er is willing to follow Miss." ”

Jin Yi bowed her head slightly, thought about it again, and said to her gently, "Then I will call you to listen to you from now on." I hope that you will listen to your words more carefully in the future, and it will be good for others and yourself. ”

Hearing this, a green smile bloomed on his face, "Miss Xie gives her name." ”

When noon was approaching, Jin Yi was embroidering in the east house, and Jin Ru came in and said, "My cousin is here, do we still have to go to the front for dinner?" ”

Jin Xuan originally said that he would have lunch with the two of her, but who knew that Sima Yulou was here, which was not easy to get along with. So he called someone to sue sΓΉ Jinru and asked what Jinyi meant.

Huajing was not very strict with men and women. In Jianye City, spring flower appreciation, summer lake tour, autumn outing, and winter hunting are all gatherings in which noble sons and ladies actively participate.

Cousins men and women sit together, although it is not very polite, but there are no elders in the Changfeng Marquis Mansion, if Sima Yulou came in the past, Jinru often went to eat together.

Jinru thought that Jinyi didn't know her cousin, and was afraid that she wouldn't mind, so she ran to ask her.

Jin Yi listened, the embroidery needle in his hand did not stop, still focused on embroidery, and after a while, he raised his head and smiled faintly: "Then it will not go." ”

Jin Ru was a little deflated, sat on the side and said, "I heard that my cousin brought a jar of monkey wine today, and I haven't even drunk it......"

Jin Yi showed her face, put the embroidery needle in her hand, stood up and said to Qiao Wei: "You go to make a few good dishes." ”

"I just went to the small kitchen to see, today there is autumn catfish, cut thin shredded fish, wrapped in jade powder and fried, the most good dish to accompany the wine." Qiao Wei comprehended, smiled and said, "Take out the green plum wine we brought again, so that Miss Ru can have a good time with alcohol." ”

When Jinru heard this, she smiled.

Jin Yi told her about hearing the words again, "If I take her back to the house directly, I'm afraid that there will be more trouble." I just said that it was a newly bought little maid in your house, and I looked at the clever and pleasing it, so I asked you to come over. When I returned in two days, I took her with me. ”

When Jinru heard that it was Yirui's daughter, she agreed, and then ordered to call the housekeeper who sent Yirui home.

When Mama Yan came in, Jinru told her, "Wrap five hundred taels of silver for Yirui, and let her take it with her when she goes home." Mama went to tell her family that she should not be treated lightly in the future. Otherwise, I will hear it again, but I will not follow it. ”

Yan Mama smiled and said: "When the Hou Ye sent me to pick up Yi Rui, I heard that it was the Hou Ye's family in the capital, but they were very attentive. Rest assured, young lady, I will go and tell them that I will never let her suffer any more. ”

After Mama Yan went out, the eyes of the people standing on the side were a little red, and they hung their heads slightly.

Jin Yi smiled at Jin Ru again: "I also want you to order someone to make her a few more clothes." ”

Rou Tao didn't have to speak, she responded with a smile on the side, and went out with the words.

At lunchtime, Jin Yi looked at Tingyan, who was wearing a new aqua red dress, with two small mustaches in her hair just left, tied with a bright red brocade thread, blinking her black eyes, and pursing her lips a little cramped.

Jin Yi said to Qiao Wei: "You teach her more, although she can't help you a lot now, it's okay to run an errand for you." ”

On this day, Jin Yi only embroidered Buddha pictures in the east warm room, and never left the courtyard gate for a single step.

In the Shenxin Hall, Jin Xuan accompanied Sima Yu downstairs to play chess for a day.

Looking at my cousin's face, from the excitement when he first came in the morning, he gradually lowered a little, but he didn't say that he wanted to leave, just pulled him and played one plate after another.

By the time of dinner, Sima Yulou was a little drunk, and the hard-won monkey wine in that jar had already been drunk to the bottom. Holding the celadon deer head wine pot in one hand and the cup in the other, he poured the ice plum wine brewed like water into his stomach.

Jin Xuan couldn't hold back a little, he was also red from drinking at this time, and couldn't help but ask him: "Cousin, you are either so busy that the dragon can't see the end of the dragon on weekdays, or a large group of people hunting and drinking, why is it so abnormal today, only pulling me here to drink stuffy?" ”

Sima Yulou was silent for a long time, and when he looked at him again, he had fallen asleep on the desk.

Jin Xuan smiled bitterly, and had to order his subordinates to clean up the fine house on the edge of Shen Xin Hall. And he called men in, and helped him to rest.

Mingxin was drunk, and carried him to the couch in the room, and then turned around, but saw Sima Yulou sitting up, his eyes were very bright.

He sat for a long time, shook his head with some distress, looked at the dark night outside the window, and said to Mingxin, "Bring my flute." ”

Ming Xin took out the Khotanese jade flute that he had brought for him from the flute bag and handed it over.

Sima Yulou took it, stroked the warm and warm jade flute, moved to the window, stood silently for a long time, and didn't look back but asked in a low voice: "Is the boat on Qingxi arranged?" ”

Mingxin replied, "It's arranged." It is a two-story boat borrowed from the East China Sea Mansion by Cheng Ye of Yishantang a few days ago. It stopped on the Qingxi River outside this house. There are not many people visiting the lake in winter, and it will be night again. There is a signboard of the East China Sea Palace, and the guards who patrol the night will not come to check. ”

"Hmm." Sima Yulou responded casually and said, "Bring my clothes." ”

The wine will be satisfied, and a burden will be brought over.

Inside was a navy blue power suit with cinched cuffs and cuffs. Sima Yulou changed his clothes, and the dark close-fitting clothes showed that he had wide shoulders and narrow waist, long body, and the whole person was like a dragon, swift as a leopard, and his whole body exuded a sassy and heroic spirit, which was completely different from his usual moist and modest.

Mingxin put on a dark blue cloak for him, and he took off his hood, and without saying a word, he dodged out of the window.
