When Qiu Nong took the spinning top back, Xu Qirong chatted with Qiu Nong while playing with the spinning top: "How old are you this year?" ”

Qiu Nong saluted respectfully: "Back to the girl, the maid is thirteen years old this year, and she is the daughter of the Shen An family in the wife's house." My wife is gone, my mother is now in charge of the needlework in the master's room, and my father is taking care of the master's jade green horse. ”

Xu Qirong suddenly realized: "Your father and your mother were brought by my mother from the Shen family?" ”

Qiu Nong said: "My mother used to be the eldest girl next to my wife, but because she was older, she listened to the master's arrangement and followed my father. Later, he followed his wife to Xu's house. ”

No wonder Xu Qijin wanted to give Qiu Nong to her, no wonder Mrs. Guo changed so many maids and women in Fenghe Courtyard, but she couldn't replace Qiu Nong!

Qiu Nong's mother, Shen An's family, used to be her mother's eldest maid, and later became a companion, which shows that Qiu Nong's family is indeed loyal. Xu Qijin can give Qiu Nong to Xu Qirong to use, which shows that he really loves this sister.

Her own side is in dire straits, but she wants to let Xu Qirong be safe and sound.

Xu Qirong's eyes were a little hot, and he smiled forcefully: "Before you came to me, did my sister explain anything to you?" ”

Qiu Rong said honestly: "Second Miss told me to serve the girl with all my heart. ”

Xu Qirong sighed, and was about to speak, when suddenly the afterglow of his eyes flashed, and he saw a corner of his clothes flashing outside the door, and he couldn't tell who it was, and he couldn't tell if she was just passing by, Xu Qirong felt a wave of boredom in his heart, compared to the Xu family like this, life in the Shen family was really much easier and more secure.

Xu Qirong deliberately raised a smile and asked Qiu Nong with envy in his eyes: "How did you look so chubby?" What do you eat? Shall I eat with you in the future? ”

As soon as the words fell, a sneer was heard, and Yu Xia was a little panting outside: "Girl, the third lady is here." ”

Xu Qiyun was wearing a butterfly peony and wearing a flower jacket, with a few pearl tassel hairpins on her head, and walked in step by step, covering her mouth with a handkerchief, and glanced at Qiu Nong, her eyes full of disgust, and then said to Xu Qirong: "Fifth sister, why is there another fat girl in your yard?" You're blind! ”

Xu Qirong looked displeased: "The third sister hurts people at the mouth, but her eyes are not blind, but she is cheap!" ”

"...... you" Xu Qiyun was about to get angry, and remembered Qiao's advice before going out, and snorted coldly, "I don't care about you!" Let's go, my mother asked you to go to Shuiyuexuan for dinner, saying that the people in Zhuangzi sent a few pieces of wild boar meat today, and my mother asked you to come over and try it. ”

Xu Qirong can't wait to get as far away from the big house as possible, where is he willing to go: "The small kitchen has already prepared meals for me, and today are all dishes I like, so I won't go to my aunt's place to eat wild boar." ”

Xu Qiyun didn't expect Xu Qirong to be reluctant to go, and his eyebrows rose at the moment: "Don't be embarrassed, my mother is willing to pull your sisters, you don't know how to cherish it!" It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, I don't know the hearts of good people! ”

Xu Qirong was angry: "Third sister, where are you talking about?" Why didn't I see my aunt pulling my sister and my two nieces? ”

Xu Qiyun saw that Xu Qirong was angry, but he was happy, and said proudly: "There are five non-marrying in "Ram Interpretation", and the first one who does not marry is the eldest daughter of the widow, and there is no precept. My mother is willing to raise you for a second time, and the second sister doesn't need to teach you, so she naturally has time to learn women's virtues and precepts, and she won't be unable to marry in a few years! ”

When Xu Qirong heard this, his face turned pale with anger, and he sneered at the moment: "The third sister married one by one, it turned out that she wanted to marry someone." I want to go to my uncle and grandmother to learn this, maybe when my uncle and grandmother are happy, they will give the third sister a good marriage, and those of us who are sisters also have a light on our faces! ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Xu Qiyun, but also Yu Xia and Qiu Nong were stunned.

Xu Qiyun's face was flushed with anger, and he said viciously: "If the fifth sister doesn't go, she won't go, what are you doing when she says such slanderous words!" If you don't go today, you won't go to the flower-viewing banquet in the Eldest Princess's Mansion in a few days! After saying this, he dropped the handkerchief in his hand and walked away. The maid who followed her hurriedly picked it up and chased after her.

Yu Xia looked at Xu Qirong worriedly for a while, and finally couldn't help but say, "Girl, who taught you what you said just now?" ”

Xu Qirong relieved himself and asked Yu Xia with a smile: "Sister Yu Xia, did I say something bad just now?" ”

Yu Xia frowned and said, "It's good, but it's too offended, if the elders in the family know, I'm afraid they will be unhappy." ”

Regarding Yu Xia's worries, Xu Qirong didn't care very much: "If what the third sister just said is known, I'm afraid that people with strict family style will not dare to come to our Xu family to talk about matchmaking." ”

When Yu Xia heard this, she felt that it made sense, so she didn't say much, but Qiu Nong didn't agree: "Wouldn't that affect the second lady and the girl!" ”

Xu Qirong waved his hand, reluctant to talk about this topic again. Qiu Nong and Yu Xia thought that their own girl was still so young, and it was indeed inappropriate to talk to her about this kind of thing. Seeing that Xu Qirong refused to say any more, they were all happy to hold back and not talk about it.

After dinner, I went to see Xu Qijin again, came back and leaned on the bedside to read a few pages of the script, and then cleaned up and fell asleep. Because of the noon incident, Xu Qirong had an extra heart and deliberately drank an extra cup of tea. When I woke up in a hurry within three watches, I specially checked the windows and found that they were all closed well, and then I fell asleep in a daze.

When Yu Xia combed Xu Qirong's hair the next morning, Xu Qirong asked, "Was it the outer room where you slept last night?" ”

Yu Xia said: "Originally, it was Shui'er's turn, but yesterday the second lady exchanged Qiu Nong for Shui'er, so she arranged for Qiu Nong to sleep outside." Girl, what's the matter? ”

Xu Qirong shook his head, and saw that Qiu Nong happened to come in with hot water, so he asked casually: "Qiu Nong, changed places, did you sleep well last night?" ”

Qiu Nong said with a glance: "It's better than sleeping in the second lady's room before." In the second lady's house, the maid got up seven or eight times a night, and only once last night. ”

Xu Qirong was shocked, Qiu Nong's meaning was naturally not to say that her bed here was more comfortable than her sister's. What did she get up for? Naturally, the windows are closed!

No wonder my sister asked Qiu Nong to come over and ordered "Serve the fifth lady well", it turns out that these things have long been familiar with Qiu Nong!

Qiu Nong is here, what should I do on my sister's side? Xu Qirong was worried again!

Thinking of the flower-viewing banquet in the eldest princess's mansion that Xu Qiyun said yesterday, Xu Qirong had an idea in his heart. After Yu Xia helped her comb her hair, clean her face, and rub her face with snow gel cream, she got up and instructed Yu Xia: "You look at the house, I'll take Qiu Nong to Lin'an Hall." ”

Yu Xia shook his hand: "What about breakfast?" Yu Qiu got up when the rooster crowed, and boiled a jar of chrysanthemum porridge with his own hands. Use the best dried chrysanthemum, japonica rice, add an appropriate amount of water, choose the branches of the half-dry and half-wet hundred-year-old cypress tree to make firewood, dry grapefruit leaves to ignite, and simmer for an hour and a half on low heat. Finely grind the rock sugar and sprinkle it into the porridge. It tastes soft and refreshing, and has the effect of clearing heat, detoxifying and brightening the eyes. ”

Xu Qirong thought for a while, and then said: "Send half of it to Fenghe Courtyard for my sister to eat, and keep the other half for me to eat again when I come back from Lin'an Hall." ”

Yu Xia was taken aback: "The girl still wants to have breakfast in Lin'an Hall?" ”

Xu Qirong said in surprise: "I'll go over now, just in time for dinner." Naturally, my aunt and uncle would ask me to eat together! ”

Yu Xia was a little worried, thinking about the porridge that Yu Qiu had worked hard to get up early in the morning, and it was not easy to persuade Xu Qirong not to eat it.

As soon as Xu Qirong took Qiu Nong and Liu's mother out, Yu Xia hurried to the small kitchen to find Yu Qiu. Yu Qiu was discussing with the cook what side dishes to match, and saw Yu Xia's ugly face coming in a hurry.

The cooks were saluting to say hello to Yu Xia, when they saw Yu Xia pointing at Yu Qiu's nose and asking, "Yu Qiu, how did you take care of the girl in Yangzhou?" ”

Yu Qiu was a little dazed: "What's wrong with the girl?" ”

Yu Xia had a dark face: "After the girl came back from Yangzhou, she ate more than me, what should I do if I hold on?" What should I do if I eat fat? ”

Then I remembered that the girl praised herself and Qiu Nong for being good-looking yesterday, and said angrily: "Who told her that she was fat and good-looking?" ”

Yu Qiu was very wronged, but her first reaction was that the girl asked her to come to the kitchen to help, did she also dislike her for being too thin? She decided to add an extra meat bun to each meal in the future!

Xu Qirong felt that he was already very early, but he didn't expect that when he arrived at Lin'an Hall, Xu Qiyun and Xu Qiyu had already arrived. Xu Qiyu said that it was normal to go to her grandmother's house early in the morning to say goodbye. But it was a little funny that Xu Qiyun and a granddaughter ran to her uncle's grandmother's house to sit so early.

Old Mrs. Guo raised her eyes and saw Xu Qirong, but she didn't show much eagerness. When she heard that Xu Qirong came back, she pinched the silver ticket she got from the Shen family and asked Xu Qijin to divide it equally. She also heard that Xu Qirong got a set of gilded dotted emerald inlaid with southern beads and double butterflies to play with broken branch lotus, which is a unique skill of a master who has been lost. Where can a little girl like her use such precious jewelry!

Not to mention, the Shen family also gave Sister Jin and Sister Rong two sisters, a box of malachite beads, a box of pearls, so many things, they were not willing to give a little to each room!

Therefore, Mrs. Guo decided to be cold for a while.

Who knew that Xu Qirong didn't notice her coldness, and opened his mouth and said: "Uncle and grandmother, yesterday the third sister said that the eldest prince mainly held a flower-viewing banquet, I heard that people said that it was in the Miaocui Nunnery on Xifeng Mountain, is it okay for uncle and grandmother to bring her face?" ”

The flower viewing banquet is in the Miaocui Nunnery on Xifeng Mountain, but I didn't ask the next person. It's just that in the previous life, the county lord of Jiaren said that her mother held a flower viewing banquet in Miaocui'an in Xifeng Mountain every year, and she met her lover in Miaocui'an.

The mother of the county lord of Jiaren is the eldest princess.

Xu Qirong saw Xu Qiyun sneering, Mrs. Guo looked impatient, and saw that she was about to be rejected, Xu Qirong hurriedly added: "It's a pity that I don't have any suitable jewelry, is it okay for my uncle and grandmother to find someone to help Qirong make a set of pure beads?" He doesn't know the price, and he doesn't know if a thousand taels of silver is enough?
