Chapter 227: Lust * Heart Rises (Two Chapters in One)
The scorching sun scorched the capital like a fire, and even the air was hot.
It was too hot, and Qi Miao didn't want to go anywhere.
But it was very stuffy to nest in the house all day, she thought about it and decided to learn from the girl to make shoes.
In two or three months, Lord Rong Zhao should give birth, and she has to prepare some gifts for the child, she has no shortage of gold, silver and jade, so Qi Miao suddenly thought that she wanted to make shoes and clothes for the child.
Although she doesn't do as well as embroiderers, it is also her sincere heart.
Thinking so, she went to Begonia Garden to find Yun's mother.
Cloud mom needlework is the best.
Knowing that she wanted to learn from female red, Shen was very happy, and Yun's mother was naturally willing to teach her.
In the past, when she was in Yanguan, she was obsessed with fist and foot kung fu all day long, and she went around with her cousins, and she couldn't help learning these things, and her grandfather's family didn't care at all about whether a woman would needlework or not, and no one forced her to learn.
After marrying Xu Che in his previous life, in order to reflect his gentleness and virtuousness, he began to work hard to learn needlework, and suffered some hardships, but he also practiced some techniques since then.
In this life, she will not be popular at this time, so she came to Xunyun's mother to learn art.
Shen thought that the weather was too hot, and he didn't want Qi Miao Mingyue Pavilion and Begonia Garden to run back and forth, so he simply asked her to move to Haitang Garden to live together.
Qi Miao did not refuse her mother's proposal, and responded with a smile.
The outside of the house was as blazing as a stove, and Baozhu and Baosheng were also in the east room to accompany Qi Miao to do needlework and needlework, and pointed her out from time to time.
Doing needlework and talking to them, Qi Miao felt that her life was very fulfilling.
And Yuexia and Xia Shuang are staying in the Bright Moon Pavilion.
"Miss Fleur is really attentive. In just two or three months, I figured out the preferences of the old lady and the prince, and sent food to the old lady today. Tomorrow, I will give Mrs. Shizi a drink, and everyone will be happy. Baoyu said.
Baoyu has a lively temperament and is generous, and the other mothers-in-law and maids in the house like to socialize with her, so she knows the things in each room.
"I heard Bingyun in the fourth lady's house say that two days ago, Furong also sent two pots of flowers to the fourth lady.
It is said that the flower is very rare, and a flower has three or four colors. It is very beautiful, and the fragrance is ten miles away, and the fourth lady is very rare. Offering it like a baby. Baoqing also said.
Bao Sheng smiled coldly and said, "When she first came, she had a cold face all day long. It's like how much money someone owes her. Now I know that it's disgusting to go around currying favor, and it's really good to keep holding that. ”
Bao Sheng's personality is the most upright, and his mouth is also sharp.
On the day Fleur and Qi Changxin returned home, she saw Fleur picking all kinds of suspicions about Qi Miao, and she had no good impression of Fleur from that moment on, and she has not changed so far.
In fact, she is not the only one, the maids and daughters in Haitang Garden and Mingyue Pavilion. There are very few who have a good impression of Hibiscus.
Qi Miao's eyes moved lightly.
In order to be recognized by everyone, Fleur really tried her best.
She's not just coaxing. is also very forbearing, and knows how to pretend to be weak in front of whom, and stop in front of whom, which is far better than the white lotus.
Mother Yun coughed lightly beside her, "You girls don't say this behind your backs, Miss Furong is not what you should talk about." ”
Furong is the baby bump in Qi Changxin's eyes, if some words accidentally reach his ears, these girls will suffer.
He wants to punish a few maids, and that's not a matter of words.
If it was before, Mother Yun wouldn't have worried about anything coming out of the Begonia Garden, but after the last time the house was turned over, she didn't think so anymore.
Be careful!
Baozhu looked at a few people and pursed his lips and chuckled, "Hmph, let a few of you say, hurry up and get to work." ”
"Yo, miss, you don't sew it right, look at it's crooked." Bao Sheng and the others stuck out their tongues, and then shifted the topic to Qi Miao's work.
Qi Miao smiled, and hurriedly removed the deliberately crooked upper again.
I didn't think that a quarter of an hour later, Fleur would come.
Mother Yun glanced at a few people with disgust, and said in a low voice, "Look at me, what am I talking about." ”
Bao Sheng and the others all shrunk their necks and smirked.
Fleur entered the house, and the silk and bamboo curtains behind her fell gently, blocking out all the steaming heat.
Walking from Bishui Pavilion to Begonia Garden, she was already sweating, and the coolness in the room made her shudder, and the sweat on her back stuck to her body, swishing cold.
Since officially becoming Qi Changxin's righteous daughter, he let Furong move to Bishui Pavilion to live.
Fleur looked at the ice cubes in the room and couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
Although there is ice in her house, the amount is pitiful, the room is only a little cooler than the outside, and if you sit for a long time, you will sweat, where is it like winter in Shen's house.
Alas, it's better to have silver, my father is nominally An Ninghou, but in fact he is very poor, and the Shen family may be worth more than his father by pulling out his hair casually.
Shen bought a lot of ice this year, and Qi Miao moved over again, afraid that she would be hot, so the amount of ice cubes used was more than usual.
Fleur quickly adapted to the temperature in the room and felt very comfortable.
She walked up to Shen and called with a smile, "Third sister-in-law." ”
"Miss Fleur, please be seated." Shen pointed to the chair next to him, his attitude was lukewarm, very normal, and he still called her Furong, not his sister, Rong Rong, or sister-in-law or anything like that.
Fleur is now used to it, and no longer emphasizes her identity, whatever the Shen family calls her.
She said softly, "Thank you for the third sister-in-law, the weather is very hot, I made some chilled sour plum soup and chilled lotus root, and sent some to the third sister-in-law and Miao'er to taste, I mixed some roses and osmanthus in the sour plum soup, not only to relieve the heat, but also to nourish the skin." ”
Chilled sour plum soup is Shen's favorite summer drink in previous years, liking the sweet and sour taste, and the lotus root is Qi Miao's favorite, crispy, sweet and very refreshing.
Most of the people in Shen's Hou Mansion who love to drink sour plum soup know it, but Qi Miao loves to eat chilled lotus root, and others may not know it.
From this point of view, Fleur really put a lot of thought into it,
But what Fleur didn't know was. Qi Miaoxin made a drink, and now she and her mother are the new favorites.
Shen's expression was still faint and said, "Miss Furong really has a heart. Orb, go get some ice cream and let Fleur take it back and taste it. ”
She is not rare for the things sent by Fleur, let alone what she has here, even if it is a rare thing in the world, she will not care.
Although Baozhu was reluctant to give the ice cheese to Furong, Shen's words. She didn't dare to disobey, so she had to answer the call to get it.
Could it be the thing that the Liu family and the Yang family said a few days ago?
They say it's tender and refreshing, sweet and delicious. Not only is it hot, but it also tastes very special.
Fleur thought to herself
Ice cream is made with fruit juice, milk, etc., and the process is a bit complicated, but the taste is also excellent. It is a rare thing in the capital.
This is the first time I've done this. It was also the first time she had eaten it, and she knew how it was done from that part of the strange memory, and it took some effort to make it when she was idle.
After it was done, everyone tasted it and praised it for being delicious.
Seeing that her mother and brother liked to eat, Qi Miao decided to make it often, and at the same time gave it to Ma and Liu.
Coincidentally, on that day, Qi Changxin took Hibiscus to enjoy the lotus. Not in the house, after they returned. Qi Miao didn't send them over.
Fleur didn't taste the ice cheese, and when she heard from the Liu family about how delicious it was, she didn't think so.
But after she tasted the ice cheese that was more tender and sweet than tofu, she had to admit that it was really delicious.
Fleur's heart was even more sour, Shen's food and clothing were better than everyone else, but it was really a good fate.
However, after Furong left Begonia Garden, Mother Yun asked what to do with the sour plum soup and lotus root, and Shen asked Mother Yun to take it down and reward it to the servants.
The next day, Qi Miao, her mother and brother had breakfast for a quarter of an hour, and the three of them were talking, when Furong came again.
But this time she didn't come to deliver food, but to seek knowledge.
"Third sister-in-law, yesterday Rong Rong sent the ice cream you rewarded to her father to taste, my father liked it a lot, Rong Rong had a reluctant invitation, I want to learn how to make this ice cheese, and I can often be a father in the future, and I also ask the third sister-in-law to complete it." Fleur said.
The words were very polite, and Qi Changxin pressed it down, forcing Shen to agree to her request.
Not to mention that the ice cream was made by Qi Miao, even if it was made by an ordinary cook, the Shen family would never agree to Furong's request.
Why do you have to teach you something good, who do you think you are?
You take yourself as a green onion, but I don't take you seriously.
What's wrong with An Ninghou's love to eat?
What is he?
If he hadn't had the hat of an elder on his head, he would have been cleaned up a long time ago.
Shen thought so in his heart, and said, "Miss Furong's request makes me very difficult, ice cream is delicious, but that method was created by others, and it was taught to outsiders at will without that reason, so I can't agree." ”
Furong didn't expect Shen to refuse so simply and directly, and her face stiffened slightly.
Isn't it just an ice cream recipe, and it's not some amazing big secret, can it be used like this?
However, her emotions tightened quickly, she was unhappy in her heart, her face did not show anything, and she softened her voice and said, "Third sister-in-law, Rong Rong didn't think about Bai Xue, I don't know what conditions are needed?" As long as Rong Rong can do it, there must be no problem.
I don't mean anything else, I just want to be filial to my father after I learn it, my father treats me well, I can repay him as much as possible, and ask my third sister-in-law to be fulfilled. ”
As she spoke, she actually got up to kneel for the Shen family.
"If Miss Fleur wants to kneel, please go outside and kneel, but don't kneel here to stand in the way." Shen Shi immediately said, "I knew this earlier, I shouldn't have taken ice cream with you yesterday, I didn't have good intentions, and I asked for trouble?" ”
She didn't want to spend any more time with Fleur, it would be a waste of her life.
Qi Miao sat there silently.
If it were someone else, she would definitely teach it, anyway, it was just a meal, and it wasn't a secret.
For Fleur, she didn't want to be close, and her instinctive feeling was better to stay away.
Fleur's cold complexion finally cracked.
She knew that the Shen family didn't like her very much, but she didn't expect to be so disliked, in front of the maids and servants, so ruthless that she was embarrassed and just wanted to find a hole in the ground to drill.
"I'm sorry, it's Rong Rong who is ignorant and makes the third sister-in-law embarrassed, it's Rong Rong's fault, Rong Rong said goodbye." Furong bit her bloodless lip, solemnly saluted the Shen family, and then hurriedly left the Begonia Garden.
Furong went back to Bishui Pavilion by herself, and asked Mother Le to go to Qi Changxin's place to say goodbye, saying that she was unwell and would not talk to him today.
Mother Le understood, and immediately went to the Evergreen Courtyard where Qi Changxin lived.
"Master Hou, Miss is not feeling well, I won't come to accompany you today, and the slave will send it to you when noon arrives." Seeing Qi Changxin, Mother Le said so.
"What's wrong with Rong Rong? Wasn't it okay when he left here, why didn't he feel comfortable in the blink of an eye? Is it too hot to get heat? Qi Changxin was in a hurry, and he couldn't wait to see Furong immediately.
"Well, Mademoiselle is not suffering from heat stroke, but ...... Forget it, don't mention some things, the old slave will go back to Bishui Pavilion to take care of Miss Ying first. Mother Le stopped talking and turned to leave.
"Le Mom, wait!" Qi Changxin immediately called her, and said with a heavy face, "Tell me quickly, what happened to Rong Rong, didn't she just say that she went to the Shen family and learned the ice cream method, did the Shen family say something ugly and hurt Rong Rong's heart." ”
Mother Le pursed her lips and said, "Actually, the third lady didn't say anything, she just didn't agree to let people teach Miss." ”
"What? How dare she hide her secrets? Qi Changxin slapped the table and was furious, "Damn Shen ......"
Suddenly, he thought of something, and he didn't dare to say the words again, and he was stuck in his throat.
Before Qi Zhengzhi left the Marquis of Anning's mansion, he came to him and said a few words to him.
Let him be kind to the Shen family, Qi Miao, and Qi Zhan, if the three of them are bullied, the entire Anning Hou Mansion will follow and suffer, and he, Qi Changxin, will be the first to be stabbed.
This sentence was not what Qi Zhengzhi meant by himself, but what Emperor Yuan Cheng said, and asked Qi Zhengzhi to relay it.
He didn't dare to disobey Emperor Yuan Cheng, he didn't want to die yet.
Mother Le was waiting for Qi Changxin to rush into the crown angrily, and then go to Begonia Garden to seek justice for Furong, who expected him to suddenly get stuck, like someone choked his throat.
She looked at Qi Changxin with suspicious eyes, not knowing what was wrong.
Qi Changxin waved his hand at her, "I'll go see Rong Rong." ”
He went to the Blue Water Pavilion.
Fleur's eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like she had cried.
However, Qi Changxin just comforted her, saying that he didn't like to eat any ice cheese, or that he would send it directly to Shen if he wanted to eat it next time, so that she didn't have to work so hard.
It's just comfort, not a word to look for trouble.
And Fleur won't mention anything else, and she responds obediently.
"Mother Le, what's wrong with my father?" After Qi Changxin left, Furong asked Le's mother suspiciously.
"The old slave is also strange, when he was in the Evergreen Academy before, the Hou Ye was angry with the Shen family, but as soon as he scolded two words, he suddenly stopped, and then his attitude changed." Mother Le said, also looking confused.
"What the hell!" Fleur frowned and muttered.
But no matter how annoyed she was, it was useless, Qi Changxin didn't come forward to settle accounts with the Shen family, and she had no choice but to find the next opportunity.
However, after this incident, she also knew that the Shen family was extremely dislike her.
Fleur's eyes sparkled with cold.
However, he said that after Qi Changxin left Bishui Pavilion, he was very depressed.
Fleur's red and swollen eyes, as well as her aggrieved expression, all made him worry.
He hated that he couldn't even protect his daughter.
Suddenly, a pale green delicate figure came into view, and when I looked at it, it was the big girl Huan Zizhu beside Ma's side.
The corners of Qi Changxin's mouth hooked. (To be continued.) )
