For the backyard, a man's favor may be there, but if it is said that he is always attentive to you and has an unwavering affection, it seems that it is indeed a little difficult to do.

Perhaps, this is simply an impossible delusion, and Aunt Liu, who has been an aunt in the backyard for so many years, must also know this truth.

It's just that a few years ago, she was a child, and at that time, Master Tong often came to see her, which made her feel that Master Tong didn't seem to forget her, but it wasn't.

As the backbone of the backyard, Master Tong is respectful to Mrs. Tong, even if Mrs. Tong is not so favored, Master Tong will never be able to say that he broke up with Mrs. Tong for an unwarranted concubine.

The reason why the children of the gentlemen are called the sons of the gentlemen is because he has been educated and does not know the human ethics, of course, the so-called human ethics only refers to the inherent human ethics in the ancient people's concepts.

Qin Yu's life here is the same as always, in June, Qin Yu can hardly see Tong Yao who goes out, Tong Yao is preparing to marry herself, at this moment, even if someone wants to quarrel with her, there is no more.

Putting aside these words for the time being, the days passed like flowing water, and it didn't take long for Tong Yao to go to ask Mrs. Tong for peace, when she heard Mrs. Tong and Mrs. Tong say.

……

Xiuxiang is pregnant here, and Master Tong goes more diligently.

Mrs. Tong couldn't tell what kind of mood she was in on her face, but the person who embroidered incense was personally arranged by Mrs. Tong, that is, there were a hundred unwilling tastes in her heart, and she had to swallow it by herself.

Although Tong Yao and Qin Yu have a rare life, they have already begun to be lively here.

Tong Rui is now thirteen or fourteen years old, Tong Yan is pestle in front of her, Mrs. Tong naturally does not dare to be careless for her daughter to look at each other early.

In the case of Mrs. Tong, she naturally wants her daughter to marry high, but Mrs. Tong also knows the personality of her daughter, and her temperament is put in the crowd, and she fights with a group of women, so don't say that Mrs. Tong does not give face to her daughter. Even if he was sold, he still helped count the money.

……

Master Tong once called Tong Qingzhi to the study and asked, with Tong Qingzhi's meaning, Master Tong knew his decision, but he was a little silent for a while. Then he thought about it and said, "What official position do you want to be?" ”

This can be regarded as a decision not to support Tong Qingzhi in disguise.

Tong Qingzhi's complexion changed at that time, his face turned pale, and his fingers under the cuffs were pinched tightly, and even the green tendons on his fingers were flushed.

There was silence in the study for a long time.

Tong Qingzhi just spoke: "It's all up to my father. ”

Master Tong nodded. This made Tong Qingzhi go out of the study.

After Tong Qingzhi came out of the study, he was naturally full of reluctance.

What did he do wrong to make Master Tong so unwelcome?

Thinking about it, Tong Qingzhi's face sank, and he couldn't say a word.

Thinking of these things in my heart, all kinds of unspeakable tastes came to my heart, and I had mixed feelings for a while.

Tong He, as the eldest son of Tong Fu, has always been a collection of thousands of favors over the years, where can there be anything like them?

For a while, I couldn't figure it out. Why was Master Tong unwilling to let him stay in the Hanlin Academy, he was depressed in his heart, so he went out of the house to relieve his mood.

When I was halfway there, I happened to meet Yao Qian, who went to the scientific expedition together last time.

Tong Qingzhi was a little surprised: "Yao Qian? How did you end up here? The words obviously didn't go through the brain, they were blurted out.

Realizing that he was a little out of shape for a while, Tong Qingzhi hurriedly put on a humble face and didn't say anything more.

Yao Qian still looked like a gentle gentleman, and he smiled faintly: "There is nothing else, but this matter is just a casual walk on the street and a distraction." ”

Tong Qingzhi was a little surprised when he heard this. As far as he knew, Yao Fu ......

After being puzzled for a while, Yao Qian smiled and said lightly: "Why don't we two go for a drink." to relieve sorrows. ”

Both of them are fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers, but the big scene has been a bit experienced.

"In that case, it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." Tong Qingzhi nodded, and walked with Yao Qian one after the other.

In fact, compared with many noble children of other families, Tong Qingzhi is already good, and Mrs. Tong is also quite conscientious. The term "killing" is not used against them.

Therefore, for these things, Tong He and Tong Qingzhi are the children of a scholarly family, but Tong He's personality is the same as that of Tong Lao, steady, calm, and his vision of doing things is very sophisticated, and the idea of seeing problems is very transparent when he is very young, so he is very loved by Tong Lao.

Tong Qingzhi is actually no worse than Tong He.

However, everything is a metaphor.

Some things are not comparable.

In comparison, Tong He is the eldest son of the concubine, but Tong Qingzhi is the concubine.

In the second comparison, Tong He was the top three in the imperial examination, but Tong Qingzhi only won the name.

Three comparisons, Tong He's temperament is very calm and never panicked, in comparison, Tong Qingzhi's temperament is worse.

In addition, if Tong Qingzhi is placed in other high-ranking households, he will be a good child and will be in the spotlight.

However, everything in the world is so ingenious, and there are not so many ifs and ifs.

……

Xiuxiang's belly was about three months old, and Mrs. Tong naturally instructed her subordinates to take care of her.

Tong Yao got up early and went to Mrs. Tong's yard.

……

Putting aside Tong Yao's matter for the time being, Qin Yu recently heard an amazing news.

This is what I heard when I was talking to Tong Qing, Tong Qing first said to Qin Yu with a mysterious face: "Sister, there is a particularly shocking thing, you must not know." ”

Tong Yao was stunned, feeling very bored in her heart, but the deformed relationship between her and Tong Qing in the past few years has finally eased a little, and she didn't bother to splash cold water on each other's ears, so she pretended to be shocked: "Really?" Sister and sister are there any magical things, let me hear about them too? ”

Who knew that this Tong Qing didn't have anything else on weekdays, but the gossip was really well-informed, seeing Tong Yao so shocked by her appearance, she smiled. said: "You don't know, it's actually like this......"

Tong Yao was originally very uninterested, but who knew that this Tong Qing really threw out the news of heavy dà.

"I'll tell you, it's said that the concubine of the Ministry of Rites. What is it called, Fang Wanqing jumped into the river and died a few days ago! ”

In an instant, Qin Yu's eyes standing behind Tong Yao were different, the tea in Tong Yao's mouth had not yet been swallowed, and the whole person had two points of energy.

"Why?" Tong Yao's whole person was in surprise.

He's dead?

Why did you jump into the river and die?

Isn't Fang Wanqing the woman who will become Jiang Ziyan's wife and Jiang Ya's sister-in-law in less than half a year?

Hear the words. Tong Qing shook her head mysteriously, "I don't know, but I heard my mother say that it's a haunted or something......" said it, shuddering and shaking his shoulders.

Qin Yu was still in shock, and she didn't have the strength to pay attention to her random speculation.

Yao Wanqing jumped into the river......

Yao Wanqing jumped into the river...... Isn't that a ...... Suicide?

Qin Yu thought like this, but her mental strength became more and more wrong.

However, Yao Wanqing ...... Yao Wanqing......

Qin Yu heard such a shocking news here, and suddenly the whole person was puzzled, the previous life. Was there such a thing in the previous life?

If you want to talk about Jiang Ziyan, all Qin Yu can think of is that she and Jiang Ya are brother and sister, and the rest are ......

The rest...... I still know that the little gossip between him and Zhao Jing is not known if it is a gossip or not.

Qin Yu quietly contemplated and thought about it with a careful squint.

But I still don't understand.

Fang Wanming is about to become Jiang Ziyan's wife, that is the wife of the auxiliary general, the main room!

In terms of the official position of the Ministry of Rites, I'm afraid it's a big pie that I can't catch up with if I break my leg and run, and I can't catch up with it no matter how much I catch up.

...... day

Qin Yu thought about it, and couldn't help but squint her eyes carefully, she remembered when she went to Jiang Mansion to attend a banquet that day. Fang Wanqing still looks good, why did she suddenly become like this?

With doubts and incomprehension, Qin Yu fell asleep in a daze.

Within a few days, as expected. Jingzhong was shocked by Fang Wanqing's news for a while.

Some people say that they have met a ghost, some people say that they have done something bad before, and now they have suffered retribution, and some say that Fang Wanqing has other men in his heart, and he jumped into the river in order to protect his chastity......

In short, there are different opinions on gossip, and there are all kinds of versions.

But. No matter how much the process is speculated by, the result has not changed, that is, Fang Wanqing has jumped into the river and is dead.

Mrs. Tong called a few girls from Tongfu over, and explained sternly: "You want An Sheng to take care of the mouths of the people in your own room, do you know?" ”

Qin Yu and the others naturally didn't have to do it.

Because of this, Tong Yan hadn't come out of the second room for many days, with a touch of sarcasm on her face, she didn't say a word to others, but turned around and went into her own room.

When Tong Qing came out of Yongshou Hall, she leaned around Qin Yu: "Sister Hui, you see what I said is true." As he spoke, he had a smug smile on his face.

Tong Yao nodded, and did not pick up her stubble, Qin Yu was on the side, but quickly found a reason and went back to the house early.

Although Qin Yu was anxious here, it was not a headless question.

When she was free, Tong Yao sent a letter to Feng Yin and asked what the situation was all about.

It took a month for Feng Yin to reply, and it had been several days since Qin Yu got the letter.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Tong Yao suddenly felt a little helpless.

It seems that this scandal is related to Jiang Ya's General's Mansion, so no one knows what the real reason is, and the upper and lower mouths of the General's Mansion are also extremely tight.

It turned out that the slightest gossip and news did not flow out.

Qin Yu read the letter and felt a relative.

Although I don't know why Fang Wanqing committed suicide by jumping into the lake, this matter is indeed a big scandal.

……

……

Not long after the incident, Qin Yu received a letter from Hongyi when she reported it.

Qin Yu said respectfully: "Miss, this is a letter from someone outside who handed you a letter, saying that you must see it for yourself." ”

Tong Yao was surprised, letter?

She couldn't remember who she had communicated with in guò.

With two points of doubt, Qin Yu still opened the envelope, but after a moment, Qin Yu's did not become tightly wrinkled.

Glancing up and down with her eyes, Qin Yu sighed for a long time.

Honglu smashed to the side and looked at it in confusion, "What's wrong?" ”

Qin Yu suddenly raised her fingers, rubbed her eyebrows with a headache, and after a moment, said, "It's nothing, it's just some annoying trivialities." "It's annoying, but it's not just annoying.

"Burn it."

Hongzhi is also very obedient to burn the envelope that should be burned and thrown away.

But when it comes to unexpected things, there have been several incidents in Tongfu in the past few months.

When Tong Yao went to greet Mrs. Tong this day, Tong Qing said with a smile: "Come and listen, there are good sisters coming to the house." ”

Tong Yao was a little puzzled, walked forward quickly, leaned over and saluted: "Say hello to grandmother." ”

Old Madam Tong nodded and asked Tong Yao to sit down and speak.

Mrs. Tong first said a few words, and then said: "That's the case, there is a distant relative from the south who wants to come to Tongfu to live in Tongfu for a few years. ”

Then I heard Mrs. Tong continue: "The distant relative of Tongfu this time is a young lady surnamed Mu, Mu Shuangyan, I heard that she is very gentle and easy to get along with, and she is also a famous talented woman in Jiang Nan's area. As she spoke, Old Madam Tong smiled on her face.

Then he came again: "Because something happened to this Miss Mu's house, she was asked to come to the Tong's house to live for a while." ”

At the end, Mrs. Tong came again: "If she comes to Tong's mansion, you should get along with her in peace." ”

After hearing this, all the young ladies here naturally nodded yes.

Qin Yu Tong Yao had just stepped out of Yongshou Hall here, and Tong Qing came over there, with a curiosity and doubt on her face: "How are you?" ”

Tong Yao was walking forward peacefully, a little unresponsive for a while, turned her face sideways, looked at her appearance a little inexplicably, and faintly: "What do you mean?" ”

Tong Qing smiled and leaned to Tong Yao's side, grabbed Tong Yao's arm with her fingers, and said with a smile: "It's the new lady who came from Tong's mansion not long after." ”

This young lady can also be regarded as a distant relative of Tong Fu, Tong Yao's mood does not know how, if Mrs. Tong pampered this young lady at that time, will Tong Yao's status plummet?

Tong Qing thought like this, and her heart was inexplicably happy and excited.

Although she looks harmless with Tong Yao on face these days, she is not really close to Tong Yao in her heart, just look at the situation. (To be continued.) )
