After the New Year, Suzhou is getting warmer day by day, the ice on the river surface melts at the end of the first month, and in February, the willow green and pink are bright and bright.

Last year, the Qi family bought a vineyard after coming to Suzhou, and in the spring, Qi Jing hired some people to fertilize and water the grapes.

Because of last year's harvest, this year, the people of Suzhou are more enthusiastic than in previous years, the ground is thawing, almost all the people began to live and serve the fruit trees, Yan Niang's tea garden planted a number of tea trees, she also invited Yun Yao to go over to see, the rectification is really good.

When the fruit trees bloom, the whole Suzhou is almost enveloped in the sea of flowers, looking at it from a distance, it is really half of the city and a river green, and there are many people in the middle of the painting.

Yun Yao was depressed in the house for a winter, and when the weather was warm in spring, she couldn't stay idle, so she invited people to come to the house from time to time to play, or went out with a few good wives and grandmothers.

Because of her winter illness, Qi Jing was more careful with her, and he was more accustomed to her temperament.

It was Qi Laoniu and Qi Gu who saw that Qi Jing loved his daughter-in-law so much, and in order not to be separated from his son and daughter-in-law, they were also tossed by Yun Yao, and no one said where she went, so she could play hard.

Yun Yao played this time, from early spring to late spring, seeing that the weather was gradually getting hotter, Yun Yao took care of it and went home to manage the back house to take care of the children.

This year, all the affairs of Suzhou are on the right track, and there are many fewer trivial matters than last year, Qi Jing also has time to go home and take the children with Yun Yao, and sometimes take Yun Yao and the children to take a walk outside in the carriage.

The weather was good on this day, Qi Jing also had leisure, took Yun Yao and the child to a very wide river in Suzhou to play, this river has no name, because outside Yangcheng, the locals are called Yanghe, in the twilight of spring, the fruit trees in the people's homes are cleaned up, the fruit trees are hung on the fruit trees, but there is no need to see the sky in the ground like earlier, the people also have some time, so they go to the Yanghe River to play.

It just so happened that the Dragon Boat Festival was about to be celebrated, and many people brought food or walked here, or fished, or took their children to have fun and so on.

When Qi Jing and Yun Yao arrived at the edge of the Yang River, it was already very lively.

Qi Jing got out of the car, and then Fu Yun Yao also came down, the two nurses held the child and got out of the car, and walked a short way forward, there were a few green willows to cover the sun, but this piece was very cool, Qi Jing saw that this place was good, so he asked the next person to take a thick cloth and spread it on the grass, Yun Yao asked the nurse to pick up the child and put it on it, and then put a lot of toys, so that the children could crawl and play.

The two teased the child with various toys, and saw an old man next to him catch a big fish, Qi Jing was tempted for a while, so he negotiated with the old man to buy the fish and grill it.

But I didn't expect the old man to recognize Qi Jing, knowing that he was the local parent official, so he said that he didn't want any money, and had to give the fish to Qi Jing, Qi Jing didn't listen to what the old man said, he insisted on sending the fish, and even wanted to kneel, and only said that Qi Jing was a good official who was the master of the people, and Suzhou had him, so that the people could live a good life, and with him, he could repel Xidi, and only then could Xidi dare not knock until now.

The old man only said that he wanted to thank Qi Jing, but Qi Jing was a little at a loss.

Yun Yao smiled when she saw it, stood beside Qi Jing and smiled at the old man: "Old man, you are sincere to give, we will accept it, you must not kneel, you are so old that you kneel to a young man, isn't this tormenting us." ”

The old man smiled and sent the fish: "Mrs. Qi is so refreshing, but it shows that Lord Qi is not simple." ”

Yun Yao called someone to catch the fish, and at the same time called Peony, Peony was holding a red lacquer carved box in her hand, Yun Yao asked her to give the box to the old man: "I saw a little lady just now called your grandfather, I think it's your granddaughter, right?" ”

The old man smiled and nodded: "Exactly, that is my old man's little granddaughter, who is usually closest to me." ”

"That's it." Yun Yao smiled more and more happily: "It just so happens that I have some yarn piles of various colored folded branches and flowers here, you can take them for your granddaughter to wear and play, but don't want to, otherwise I will be annoyed." ”

"This, this ......" This time, it was the turn of the old man who was at a loss: "This fish is only worth a few dollars, how can you ask for Mrs. Qi's good things, it's really embarrassing." ”

"You look at the fish is not worth much, but I see that this folded branch flower is not worth a few dollars, but it is used for fun, you want to refuse, but show that you have any opinions about us, and you don't want to see us." Yun Yao smiled and nodded again.

In this way, the old man took the box with some joy and embarrassment: "That's really a good thing for Mrs. Qi that the old man has parted favor, thank you for the granddaughter of the old Han Dynasty." ”

"It's not worth it." Yun Yao waved her hand: "Then you continue fishing, and our master and I will go over to accompany the child." ”

The old man hurriedly saluted, and then continued to fish after watching Qi Jing and Yun Yao go to the tree to tease the child, but after a while, a little girl in red came to look for the old man, and when she saw the head flower that the old man handed her, she was so happy that she took a red peony flower and put it on her head, and ran to Yun Yao again to thank her.

Qi Jing looked at it and said to Yun Yao with a smile: "You still have a way, otherwise, we won't take the old man's fish for nothing." ”

Yun Yao also smiled: "Now who in Suzhou doesn't know that Lord Qi is the master of Qingtian, a rare good official, anyone who recognizes you is eager to send you something to do their best, if I give money, it is to look down on people, people are annoyed, it is better to exchange things, first, we will not take advantage, second, people will not suffer." ”

"Yes, yes." Qi Jing nodded again and again, agreeing with Yun Yao's words.

The two of them looked over along the sound, but saw two middle-aged men in satin clothes not far away, who seemed to be extremely wealthy, arguing there.

After arguing for two sentences, the two men actually followed the followers who asked for copper coins to sprinkle into the river, the first family sprinkled half a basket of copper coins, and the second family wanted to sprinkle a whole basket, and the first family felt that their faces were dull, so they carried several baskets.

Qi Jing looked at Deng Shi and pulled down his face, and explained that Yun Yao looked at the child, and he got up and went over.

When Qi Jing passed, the second family sprinkled two baskets of copper coins, and the first family had to sprinkle three baskets into the river.

But he saw Qi Jing pick up the two baskets of copper coins one by one and throw them in front of the man, kicked again, kicked the third basket over, stepped on the basket, and asked sharply: "What's the matter?" Do you have money to burn, but you have a good life but you are here to fight for richness? ”

The two men obviously recognized Qi Jing, and when they saw Qi Jing's scolding, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak.

Qi Jing asked the two men: "Which family are you from?" What's their name? ”

The two men didn't dare not reply, and the first one in pine green clothes replied: "My surname is Zhu, and people outside call me Zhu Daring." ”

The second one in smoky gray clothes replied: "My surname is Sun, and people outside call Sun not afraid." ”

Okay, one Zhu is bold, and the other is not afraid, but they are really two stunned young people.

Qi Jing's face sank like water, and he pointed at Zhu Daring and said: "Suzhou City has only been safe for a few days, do you think that life is too easy, and you came here to toss?" ”

Both of them lowered their heads and wiped their sweat, and they didn't even dare to say in their mouths.

"I think you dare."

Qi Jing sneered: "Do you want to be rich, do you want to fight up and down?" ”

The two of them nodded again and again, and Qi Jing saw this and said: "That is the case, you will each pay for the construction of the righteous school, and it is better to compare which school's righteous school is better, which family invites a good gentleman, and which school of righteous school students eat well and learn well, isn't it good?" Do you have to throw all the money into the water, whether you can hear the sound or whatever. ”

Qi Jing scolded and scolded, and the two people who said it were sweating all over, and Zhu Daring hurriedly laughed and said: "It's because we want to be bad, so we just step on the money so badly in one breath, and we won't dare to do it in the future." ”

Sun Buxing also said with a smile: "What the adults said is that we will build righteousness when we go back, which is better than who is righteous, and we will not fight this kind of idleness anymore." ”

Seeing that the two of them admitted their mistakes, Qi Jing's face was a little better, and he also laughed: "If you really want to fight for the rich, there are more people who can fight, you build a porridge shed to help those poor families, or see whose life is unbearable and help some help, wouldn't it be better than anything else, I don't believe that you can still be scolded if you help people?" It's not much better than throwing money into the river. ”

The two of them claimed that it was, and Qi Jing instructed them a few more words, telling them not to do this in the future, and they got the assurance of the two of them before they went back.

Because Qi Jing was here, Zhu Daring and Sun were not afraid or dared to stay any longer, so they took the people in the family to carry the copper coins and walked away.

Waiting for Qi Jing to go back, Yun Yao smiled and handed him a glass of water: "Xiang Gong is a great official, and he scolded people away in a few words, but what you scolded is really good, I am the most disdainful of such a person who does not know how to cherish things, these two people are not afraid of wasting money and breaking blessings, they ran to the river to throw money and listen to the sound of playing, I have never seen such a fool." ”

Qi Jing smiled when he heard it: "It's much more confused than this, it's just that you haven't seen it, and I will take you to see it later, and I will understand that this is not called anything at all." ”

Yun Yao listened to it, and asked Qi Jing what else was going on.

Qi Jing couldn't resist her, so he could only sit down and tell her slowly, talking about the behavior of the salt merchants in Yangzhou earlier, Yun Yao was very surprised to hear it, and heard the salt merchants throw gold leaves into the river, burn the best silk, compare the heads of the flower building and so on, Yun Yao really didn't feel that Zhu Daring and Sun were not afraid of going too far.

Not to mention how the people of Suzhou are, what is the life of the Qi family.

It is only said that in Chang'an City, because Fan Wu sent a letter to the sisters of the Fan family in winter, and Qi Baohua also sent a letter to the sisters of the Qi family, the Fan family and the Qi family teamed up to promote how the Xu family was not virtuous in Chang'an, and vigorously ruined the reputation of the Xu family.

From the previous year to the end of spring, Xu's illness was almost gone several times, but it was also a scourge to live for a thousand years, even so, Xu's still survived very tenaciously, and his body and bones seemed to have withstood the test of many bitter medicines, and his body became more and more healthy.

It's just that even if Xu can get out of bed, she doesn't dare to go out, she is afraid that she will be scolded by someone when she goes out, not only Xu, but also Xu's mother's father and mother have no face to see people these days.

The Xu family asked people to inquire about the Fan family and the Qi family who were staining her reputation behind her, and gritted her teeth angrily, but she couldn't think about it.

He also said that the Xie family, the Xie family was locked up in the house and was not allowed to go out, and when it was spring, Qi Tongsuo gave birth and gave birth to a big fat boy, which can be regarded as making Mrs. Xie very happy, and the old lady took her great-grandson at home every day, but she didn't want to go out.

It's just that this day is the Dragon Boat Festival, the Xie family also wrapped zongzi, prepared a table of good meals, and at noon the family sat at the table before saying that they wanted to eat and drink, they saw the housekeeper hurriedly running over, and said to Xie Dingguo: "Master, it's not good, there are several rangers outside our house."
