Chapter 333: Transparent
happened to meet Xiu Muri, Qi Jing thought of what Yun Yao told him, so he invited Yu Long to go to the south of the city together.
Because all the relatives in the Yu family's old mansion were killed, Yu Qi and Fan Wu both felt that the house was ominous, and they were not happy to live in the old mansion anymore, just like Yu Long, and moved to the house they had purchased earlier in the south of the city.
When Qi Jing and Yu Long arrived at Yu Qi, they happened to meet Yu Qi who was about to go out, and when they saw these two coming, they had to call a little guy to go back to the friend who asked him to go out for fun, and then lead Qi Jing and Yu Long into the door.
Yu Qi's house in the south of the city is not big, and the total is only a two-story house, but the front and back yards of this house have built a two-story small building, and there is a small garden in the west, which is quite spacious and looks very chic.
The three of them entered the door and directly entered the small building where they first entered, and the two open rooms on the west side of the small building were Yu Qi's study, which was also used as a guest, and it was this room that Yu Qi invited Qi Jing and Yu Long to enter.
After entering, Qi Jing and Yu Qi sat down, while Yu Long walked around the room, looked around, and smiled at Qi after sitting down: "Big brother, this study is also neat and tidy, and there are some good things." ”
Yu Qi smiled: "I don't know much about these either, it's all your sister-in-law Zhang Luo." ”
"Sister-in-law bothered." Yu Long smiled and took a sip of tea: "This tea is not bad, it is actually my usual favorite drink, it must have been heard by my sister-in-law from my daughter-in-law." ”
"If you like to drink, drink more." Yu Qi had a lot of face, and his smile was also cheerful: "When you leave, ask your sister-in-law to bring you some back." ”
"Then I'll have to thank my sister-in-law." Yu Long responded with a smile.
Qi Jing put down the teacup and glanced at Yu Long, Yu Long understood, and then smiled: "My sister-in-law is a person who knows cold and hot, and she has done her best to take care of her eldest brother in the past few years. ”
His words made Yu Qi fall silent and didn't speak for a long time.
Seeing this, Qi Jing had no choice but to speak: "I know that you have been in a bad mood since you returned to Chang'an, and I deliberately came to see you with my sixth brother-in-law, according to me, who is as afraid as you are not comfortable, when the sixth brother-in-law and I attacked Chang'an, I saw corpses all over the ground, and I felt bad, to be honest, until now we are not too strong." ”
Yu Long nodded immediately: "Yes, after our father and mother died, I cried I don't know how many times, and then I thought again, I just cried to death, and my father and mother couldn't pay back the yang, but I was so tired that my father and mother couldn't be at peace under Jiuquan, but it was better to live well, and assist Your Majesty Xià to revitalize the Great Zhou, and one day wave the army to the north to avenge my father." ”
"I don't know that." Yu Qi sighed after a long time: "But, this heart is always unbearable, I still remember that before I went to Suzhou, my father and mother Yin Yin instructed Yu Ji to be coquettish with me, but who would have thought that after only a few years of hard work, it would be gone, and I was left with a ......"
"Be careful." Qi Jing's face was a little bad when he heard this, and he pointed at Yu Long: "What do you mean that you are the only one left, and who is this?" Isn't this your mother's brother? So what is Fan's identity? That's the wife who has been with you for many years. ”
Yu Qi's face was swollen and red, and he was even more speechless.
Seeing him like this, Qi Jing couldn't help but soften his tone a little: "Seeing that you always can't cheer up, Fan's heart is worried and abnormal, so he specially went to find my wife and asked me and Yu Long to persuade you, it turns out that I also said that you are a big man What can you persuade, but my wife always urges me to come, so I can't help but come over, but I don't persuade you, it's not bad to chat with you, where can you think of it, you really can't think about it." ”
"I ......" Yu Qi raised his head and looked inexplicable: "That's my parents and relatives, how could I be willing to do this." ”
"Whoever dies will be sad, but sad is sad, you can't always think about the dead ********, you have to consider the living one, the feelings of the person who is with you, you just know that your relatives are dead, Fan's relatives have died, and her uncle's family is gone." Qi Jing had a little anger on his face, and what he said was a little unpleasant: "She knows that she is worried about you, but you are a man who stands up to the sky and the earth but doesn't know how to care about her, so that she will suffer from the loss of her relatives while still suffering from your complaints, and it is also Fan's deep affection for you and strong temperament, but if you change a woman, you will look at it again, I am afraid that you will already be sick in bed and will not be able to get up again, what should you do when the time comes?" ”
Qi Jing and Yu Qi have worked together for many years, and they also know his temper, this person is just holding on to his temper and fighting backwards, he can't listen to him when you talk to him in a good voice, you want to scold him twice, I can't say that he really goes to his heart.
And Yu Qi has one benefit, that is, he doesn't hold grudges very much, and the person he really identifies is just a few words of scolding, and he is not annoyed.
Therefore, Qi Jing dared to use such heavy means, if he was a different person, Qi Jing would not say it like this.
Sure enough, Yu Qi was scolded by Qi Jing like this, and he was stunned, and he sat for a long time before he fell to his feet and sighed, tears slowly flowed from his eyes: "It was my mistake, I, I am not as good as a woman in the Fan family." ”
"To tell the truth, eldest brother, you are really not as good as your sister-in-law." Yu Long sneered: "My sister-in-law in Suzhou has done everything possible to make friends with those noble ladies over the years, not to open the way for your career, my sister-in-law still has a good business, so that your life is rich day by day, so that you can have spare money to supply the expenses of Chang'an, you don't say that your sister-in-law works hard, so that she can thank her, but whenever something happens, blame her, you are really ...... Really make it out, anyway, I'm quite ashamed of you, you act like this, so that I won't have the face to see my sister-in-law in the future. ”
Yu Qi's face was even more swollen and red when he said this: "This, this, it's really mine, I can't compensate Fan when I turn around." ”
He thought of the two of them when they met Fan earlier, the sweetness of the newlywed, after he took office in Suzhou, he was struggling, and Fan has been with him, it can be said that Fan has helped him too much, and for a long time, he is used to it, not to thank Fan, but this time, he also resents Fan for not doing his best to promote his family to move to Suzhou, which is really not authentic.
For a while, Yu Qi was ashamed.
Qi Jing saw that he had remorse, and he didn't want to be too persecuted, so he laughed first, and then said: "Don't talk about this, I came over today to discuss one more thing with you." ”
"What's the matter?" Yu Qi was stunned for a moment and then asked urgently.
Qi Jing glanced at him: "Asking you to go back to Chang'an to report on your work, it's not that you will stay in Suzhou in the future, this time I want to ask you what your plans are in the future, do you want to stay in Chang'an or go out to be the chief official elsewhere?" ”
"This?" Yu Qi hesitated, and couldn't make up his mind for a while.
Seeing this, Qi Jing had to explain to him in detail: "No matter what you say, you are the old man in the palace, and your majesty also intends to pull you back, if you want to stay in Chang'an, you can enter the Ministry of Rites as a waiter, and if you want to be released, Your Majesty means that you want to open a commercial port in Ningbo, and ask you to be the official in charge of maritime business." ”
"This ......" Yu Qi still couldn't make up his mind, and said after a while: "I'll discuss with the Fan family and make a decision." ”
Qi Jing nodded: "You can give me an answer, and I can get the official's affairs done as soon as possible." ”
"Okay."
Yu Qi responded, raised his head and smiled: "It's really embarrassing to say it, I actually let the things at home alarm you, and ask you to work hard for me, I ......"
He scratched his head: "No wonder you can't bear it, since you are here today, you must have dinner with me today before leaving." ”
"It's nature." Yu Long was very happy when he heard this, and nodded continuously: "I know that sister-in-law must have good things here, and she came here to beg for a bite to eat, if you don't keep us, we must also find a way to stay and eat up all the good things you have in private." ”
Yu Qi laughed twice when she heard this, and then asked the little maid to go to the back house to tell her to prepare a good banquet.
It didn't take much effort, Fan Shi hurried over, first saw Qi Jing, then looked at Yu Long, and smiled at the two: "It's rare for you two to come, I will ask the cook to take out all the skills to clean up a table of good dishes." ”
Then she said: "Today's weather is not bad, and it is not cold, it is better to call my younger siblings and third sisters over, and everyone will be lively together." ”
Qi Jing smiled and waved his hand: "I don't care about this, you just have to invite someone, it all depends on their meaning." ”
Fan was very happy when he heard this, and after he went out, he was busy asking the girl to go to the two mansions to invite people, and then went to the kitchen to set the menu, and discussed with the cook what to cook.
Not to mention how these three families got together to eat and drink, let's just say that the Fan family saw that Yu Qi seemed to want to open, and he was very grateful to Yun Yao, and specially toasted Yun Yao a few cups at the banquet.
Yun Yao also drank it, but she didn't think that Fan's wine was good to drink, but it was a little upset, and when she went home after eating, Yun Yao was a little drunk, and dragged Qi Jing on the carriage and kept muttering something, making Qi Jing look angry and funny, and had to drag her over to carefully press a few acupuncture points to make her feel better.
The two of them took the car home, and when they entered the gate, they saw Haitang greeted them happily: "Master, wife, the second aunt's family is here." ”
"What?" Yun Yao's eyes widened in surprise after hearing this: "Why is the second sister here?" I didn't have a letter earlier, this ......"
Qi Jing took her hand: "What are you panicking about, the second sister and you have a deep sisterhood, you just didn't go to greet her, and she won't blame you." ”
Subsequently, Qi Jing asked Haitang again: "Where are the second aunt's wife and master now?" ”
Haitang smiled: "It's in the front hall, the old lady and the old lady are talking with them." ”
Qi Jing pulled Yun Yao back to the house immediately, and the two changed their clothes before going to the front hall to meet the guests.
Yun Yao and Yun Zhen haven't seen each other for many years, this time the sisters didn't know what to say when they met each other, and it took a long time before they sat down together and whispered.
Yun Yao asked Yun Zhen how she had spent all these years, and also told Yun Zhen about many things in Suzhou over the years.
Yun Zhen saw that Yun Yao's appearance was better than before after many years, and she was very embarrassed for a while, but she smiled with tears in her eyes: "I see that my sister's life must be very good, you look at you, you are the mother of two children, but I haven't seen the old at all, but I look better than before, it can be seen that my brother-in-law is good to you, and you have a comfortable life." ”
Yun Yao also smiled: "My sister is a lot richer, it must be better, my brother-in-law has always been very good to you, and you have children by your side, even if your old lady is afraid and won't pick your thorn." ”
Yun Zhen glanced at Yun Yao: "Naturally, she won't pick any more thorns, who called my brother-in-law an official, and now you are a prince's family, she can't even bother me, speaking of which, I can have a good life now all thanks to you." ”
"Sister, what's that called?" As soon as Yun Yao heard this, she didn't follow: "It's good that my sister is here, you are called blessed, and good people have good rewards." ”
Speaking of this, Yun Yao pulled Yun Zhen, got up and told Qi Gu that she wanted to take Yun Zhen back to the room to rest, Qi Gu naturally would not stop her, so the two sisters said goodbye and went to Yun Yao's room to talk.
When she returned to her room, Yun Yao opened her mouth and said, "When the eldest sister came to live in the winter last year, I saw that the eldest sister had aged a lot, and she had lost her previous arrogance, as if she had been rubbed by Fang Sheng and changed into a person.
