Chapter 9 Follow-up

After entering the banquet room and sitting down with each other, Li talked about it again, and said: "Zhou Yushi was angry, and scolded Dingxing Hou all the way back to his home, so he had to take the one in my family with him, and said that he wrote a song to give me a sneak peek. ”

Night curfew in the capital. It can be seen how difficult Gu Ming was at that time.

Jiang thanked and thanked, implying that the Gu family had written down the favor of the Cui family, and the Li family praised Cui Keyin again, and said, "Have you ever said that you are close, or that you have an oral marriage contract with which family?" ”

Jiang smiled but did not answer, and picked up the teacup and drank tea.

Cui Keyin excused herself and left, and said: "The mother-in-law who bought it in the morning sent fresh ingredients, and the red beans said to make some snacks and ask the aunt to taste them, I will go and see if it is done, and if it is done, my sister-in-law will also taste it." ”

When Cui Keyin came out of the banquet room, Jiang said: "The eldest lord has fallen in love with a family, but the old lady just wants to let the two children look at each other, if they are satisfied, it is not too late to mention family affairs." ”

Li said with a smile: "Since the eldest master looks at it, it must not be far off." ”

She originally wanted to tell Cui Keyin to her younger brother, but now it's hard to speak.

After a while, Cui Keyin brought red beans in, and the sweet smell followed. There are four kinds of snacks and four colors on the tray, which is pleasing to the eye.

Jiang and Li praised in unison and rewarded the red beans respectively.

After eating snacks and talking for a long time, Jiang left Li for lunch, and Li politely resigned.

In the afternoon, the small courtyard was named Huayuexuan, and Cui Keyin inscribed it and asked people to take it to make a plaque. As soon as the pen was put down, Ren Yazi brought seven or eight eleven or twelve-year-old girls over, but Cui Keyin didn't pick it.

Jiang and Cui Keyin discussed: "I think two of those little girls are not bad, why don't you accept them first?" ”

Cui Keyin smiled and didn't speak, and Lu Ying smiled: "Madame doesn't know, Miss picks people, and you don't want to use it." ”

It's not that you can look good, you have to have a skill, like Hongdou is a master of cooking, Zilan will be a martial artist, and Moyu will be a director, take care of everything in an orderly manner, and she doesn't need to spend a little bit of effort, she can handle it. The people sent by the human teeth, although two of them look pleasing to the eye, are still too ordinary in the end.

Jiang couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, she had been serving Cui Zhenyi in the capital, and she had heard that Cui Keyin was picky, but she didn't want to be picky to this point.

Cui Keyin said lightly: "Let's do it first, if you need manpower, just send a few second-class maids who stayed in Taiping Lane." ”

Jiang had no choice but to follow her, carefully picked a few rough maids and mothers-in-law who sprinkled and swept errands, and repeatedly told them to be careful on errands before it was over.

Cui Muhua came and said, "My sister is used to living? Did you sleep well last night? ”

Cui Keyin let the red beans serve a snack and said, "It's okay." When is the eldest brother going to study in Guozijian? ”

Cui Muhua said: "I originally wanted to go in the next two days, but my uncle told my father two days ago that the cousin of the Tang family is also going to study in Guozijian, let me rest for a few days, and go together when the cousin of the Tang family comes." ”

Jiang's sister married into the Tang family in Shanxi, and she is also a century-old family, and her brother-in-law is Tang Tianzheng, a scholar of the Ministry of War and a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion. The only son, named Tang Lun, has been very smart since he was a child, and he is Xie Yuanlang of Jinke, and this time he went to Beijing, presumably for next year's spring.

Cui Zhenyi naturally wanted his son to have more dealings with Tang Lun.

Cui Keyin smiled: "Big brother, don't let this cousin of the Tang family compare." ”

Tang Lun is only 16 years old this year, and he is already famous in Shanxi.

Cui Muhua smiled bitterly and said, "It's been compared for a long time." ”

It would be nice if he was half as smart as Tang Lun, alas, people are more popular than people.

Cui Keyin teased him twice, and the topic shifted to something else. However, the Jiang family sent the eldest maid Cuihuan to say: "If the young lady is free the day after tomorrow, Mrs. will post a post for Mrs. Tang, and go to the Tang Mansion together the day after tomorrow." ”

It stands to reason that when Cui Keyin comes to Beijing, her in-laws have to walk around.

Cui Keyin naturally responded, and Cuihuan went to reply.

Cui Muhua said while playing with the wolf pen on the table: "Aunt must like you, I went over in the morning, and my uncle asked about you." ”

"Ask me what I do?" Cui Keyin was surprised and said, "Don't you have to go to court for Tang Ge?" Where did you meet him? ”

"I saw him in his office after the dispersal of the court." Cui Muhua said: "I am still tested for my knowledge." ”

The tone was a little dissatisfied, and it was estimated that Tang Tianzheng's question was a little difficult.

Cui Keyin looked at him with a smile and said, "Didn't you go to see Mrs. Tang?" ”

That's his own aunt.

"Go, didn't you just come back?" Cui Muhua said, remembering something, ripped off the purse on his waist, took out a small jade pendant from it, and said, "Uncle gave it to you." ”

The small mutton fat white jade, the whole body is white, the workmanship is exquisite, and it is carved with a bush of bamboo.

Cui Keyin took him, excused himself and said, "Tang Ge Lao gave it to you, how can you transfer it to me?" You might as well take it. ”

Cui Muhua still wanted to persuade, but Lu Ying hurriedly came in and said, "Miss, the eldest master is back, and Madame will let you go." ”

Cui Keyin nodded and went to Chunshan Residence with Cui Muhua.

After the two of them saluted and stood up, Cui Zhenyi said in a deep voice: "Zhou Quan impeached Li Mingfeng in the court, and the emperor summoned him to reprimand, he actually asked the emperor to marry Ke Yin for his unsuccessful concubine." ”

Jiang exclaimed in surprise and said, "What did the emperor say? ”

If Emperor Chrysostom came out, there would be no way to change this.

Cui Muhua hurriedly said: "Dad, we can't agree." Without waiting for Cui Zhenyi to speak, he rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll go and beat up that kid from Li Jiang." ”

Dare to covet his sister, that is impatient to live.

"Come back!" Cui Zhenyi shouted: "How can the emperor give people a marriage indiscriminately? ”

Cui Muhua muttered: "The current emperor is confused, who knows he won't." But he didn't go out, but sat down obediently.

Cui Keyin said: "But Li Mingfeng is so troublesome, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty know about the city gate?" ”

Yesterday's appearance at the city gate has long become a topic of conversation for the people of the capital after tea and dinner. It's just that everyone doesn't know which family the woman is, and only Li Jiang has become a laughing stock. Who can be an official in the DPRK and the Central Committee, who is not a well-informed person, presumably many people have heard about yesterday's incident. Now that Li Mingfeng has pointed out the identity of the woman, Cui Keyin has also become a topic of conversation.

Cui Zhenyi was angry about this, he nodded, and said: "After the dispersal of the dynasty, Li Mingfeng was still entangled, and I couldn't hide, so I had to come back early." In this matter, we have to think of a perfect solution. ”

Before the words fell, Cuihuan said outside the door: "Master, Dingxing Hou asks to see." ”

Cui Zhenyi broke off: "The door is closed, and no one is seen." ”

I'm afraid that it is not only Li Mingfeng who will ask to see him next, but also many official eunuchs.

Cuihuan had never seen his master so angry, so he was so frightened that he shuddered and hurried to spread the word.

Cui Keyin frowned and said, "It's not a way to hide like this." ”

You have to let Dingxing Hou die.
