Chapter 162 Coveted

On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Ling Qingyun got up early.

Pushing open the window of Xiaoxuan, a cold breath with a faint fragrance came to his face. The plum blossoms in the yard are all in full bloom, sparse and slanted, and the fragrance is overflowing. The cold and crisp fragrant air diluted Ling Qingyun's heavy sleepiness.

"Girl, are you going out today?" The maid asked Ling Qingyun.

Ling Qingyun nodded: "Well, take out my gold hairpin and gold bracelet."

Zhen, the wife of the Du family, is very fond of splendid ornaments because she was born glamorous and charming.

Ling Qingyun went a few times, and each time Zhen used gold jewelry. Those gold are clear, but there is no sense of vulgarity in Zhen's body, but it sets off her graceful and luxurious, gentle and dignified.

Ling Qingyun knew that the Zhen family preferred gold.

Therefore, Ling Qingyun also wants to wear gold today, do what he likes, and gain more favor from the Zhen family.

Ling Qingyun was born with an atmospheric face, so she could barely hold up with gold jewelry, although she was not as good-looking as Zhen's.

"Yes." The maid replied, and hurriedly went to find Ling Qingyun's jewelry box.

The dexterous hands of another maid stacked Ling Qingyun's waist-length hair into a high bun.

On the bun, a golden hairpin with a cloud and phoenix pattern, the head of the hairpin is submerged in the elegant black hair, and the hairpin tail that pours out is shining with golden light.

A pair of bright gold earrings also shine accordingly.

"Girl, it's all right." The maid said.

Several people hurriedly changed Ling Qingyun's clothes. Because of the rich gold jewelry, the maids found a plain Tianshui blue dress for Ling Qingyun.

Finally, there is a moon-white wind with gold thread.

Dressed properly, Ling Qingyun got up, and looked at the mirror for herself: slender and colorful. Rich and gorgeous. without losing its dignity and calmness.

"So be it." Ling Qingyun was very satisfied.

She felt it was appropriate.

After she had freshened up and dressed properly, the sky slowly turned white. The sunrise in winter is relatively late, and the light shadows of the treetops in the distance are swaying, and the dark red luster is gradually turning white, and the sun is rising.

Ling Qingyun went to her mother's side first.

"Your aunts and sisters-in-law go to Du's house, and you should act safely. Don't make people laugh at you, you're not sensible. Jing told Ling Qingyun.

The wife of the Du family, Zhen. Acting exquisitely. She not only gave Ling Qingyun an invitation, but also Jing and Chen Qiniang.

However, today there are other feasts in the Jing family. couldn't leave, so he had to apologize and refuse, and sent Ling Qingyun and Chen Qiniang to go.

"Got it, mother." Ling Qingyun responded.

Chen Qiniang wore a silver-red long jacket. The moon-white blessing skirt also matches Ling Qingyun's clothes.

"Don't worry. Mother. Chen Qiniang also said. She deliberately put on makeup today, she is delicate and feminine, but the corners of her eyes are slightly raised, confident and proud. Compared to Ling Qingyun, he was more imposing.

"Mother, sister-in-law is going to compare me today." Ling Qingyun laughed and teased her sister-in-law.

Jing Shi was dumbfounded: "When will you compare to your sister-in-law?" ”

Ling Qingyun's eyes widened as she looked at her mother.

Chen Qiniang laughed. Jing also laughed. Ling Qingyun couldn't hold back, and laughed herself.

The sister-in-law had breakfast at Jing's place. And they went out together.

On the carriage, Chen Qiniang asked Ling Qingyun: "Yun'er, you have been very close to the Du family these days, but do you have any plans?" ”

Chen Qiniang sensitively felt all of Ling Qingyun's schemes.

Ling Qingyun smiled and said, "I have some plans." The sister-in-law may not know that Zhen, the wife of the Du family, and the wife of Prime Minister Yang are cousins.

Everyone else thinks that they have little contact in private and are not close, and Du Yongqi did not become an official because of Prime Minister Yang.

Therefore, the world does not associate the Du family with the Yang family very much. In fact, many of Mrs. Yang's private property is handed over to Zhen and Du Yongqi to take care of, and the two of them have the best relationship.

Yang Mansion is a big family, we can't climb it. Therefore, I want to climb the Zhen family, maybe there will be a chance in the future, but I can take the opportunity to make friends with Mrs. Yang. ”

The prominent families in Beijing all know that Zhen and Mrs. Yang are cousins.

However, they are separated by two generations, and they usually have little contact, and they don't even have entertainment during the New Year's holidays, so everyone thinks that the two of them are not close.

Because of this, no one paid attention to Zhen.

In fact, Zhen is Mrs. Yang's confidant, and the two have been best friends since childhood and have similar interests.

Mrs. Yang forced her sister to death, replaced her sister, and married her brother-in-law, not an idle person.

She carried Prime Minister Yang behind her back and took a lot of bribes. She didn't worry about handing over the money to the people around her, and she didn't want to be discovered by Prime Minister Yang, so she handed it all over to Zhen.

In order to hide people's eyes, Zhen rarely went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In the past, Lu Jiuniang's brother had a very good relationship with Du Yongqi, and Lu Jiuniang didn't know that Du Yongqi and his wife were Mrs. Yang's henchmen.

Until the stone court sued sù Ling Qingyun.

"I see." Chen Qiniang listened to Ling Qingyun's words and said with a smile, "Yun'er is far-sighted. That being the case, today I want the Lady of the Prince to remember that you are. ”

Mrs. Shizi had long remembered Ling Qingyun.

Zhen is waiting for Ling Qingyun to save her son's life.

"Okay." Ling Qingyun responded to Chen Qiniang with a smile.

When I arrived at Du's house, I saw that the beads were surrounded by greenery, and Gao Peng Yingmen. The Du family is also a meritorious family, with many relatives and friends. Even if there is no icing on the cake from Mrs. Yang, Zhen's connections in Beijing are quite rich.

Hearing that Ling Qingyun was coming, Zhen personally greeted her.

This honor is enviable.

"Who is it?" The female dependents may not have seen Ling Qingyun, and they don't recognize her very well.

Ling Qingyun rarely socializes on weekdays.

"I don't know. Gentle and decent, and can let the princess personally greet her, it should be a high-ranking girl, why haven't you seen it? A lady said haughtily.

What she means is that she has dealings with the high-ranking families in Beijing, so she knows it.

Someone next to him was unhappy, sneered and mocked: "This is full of capital, there are many noble families, and not all of them are nouveau riche. You haven't seen a lot of them, right? ”

The lady who spoke before was half angry.

"That's the girl from the Jin State Mansion." Someone has seen Ling Qingyun.

"Oh, the Guards are in command of the envoy's fiancée."

That is Ansu's daughter-in-law.

Everyone understood it, and immediately there was a lot of discussion. They all praise Ling Qingyun for her good looks.

And Chen Qiniang, who was next to Ling Qingyun, was also eye-catching.

"See, that's the girl of the Chen family in Qizhou."

"The Chen family in Qizhou is terrible, they relied on grain last year to win huge profits, but they are afraid that they will be rich enough to rival the country."

"Not really, right?"

"How not? This year's grain supply in the entire northwest is all from the Chen family in Qizhou. You think about the profit here."

"Ouch. That's really rich! ”

Last year, Chen Qiniang went to Chen's house to transport some grain back, and she made a lot of money. And the Chen family, who has countless grains. With this huge profit, it became famous all over the world at once, and even Jingshi heard about it.

Everyone knew that the Chen family had made money.

The day before yesterday, Chen Qiniang's father and brother went to the capital in person. It took a lot of money to dot up and down.

Rich and powerless. It may be slaughtered. Therefore, the Chen family spent a lot of thought, especially Ansu.

Ansu was also willing to be the backing of the Chen family, so he accepted the Chen family's New Year's gift.

These discussions. Zhen, Chen Qiniang, and Ling Qingyun also heard it.

Zhen also took the opportunity to look at Chen Qiniang a few times.

Chen Qiniang's eyebrows are slightly upturned, and her romantic posture is piled up, gentle and charming. Especially her eyes. Like a dot of paint, deep and bright.

"This Chen Qi Niang. There is no frivolity of a merchant girl, and she looks quite extravagant. Zhen thought to himself.

Thinking about it, she led Ling Qingyun and Chen Qiniang to the flower hall of the banquet.

After the banquet, Cheng's mother found Ling Qingyun again and asked Ling Qingyun to go to the backyard to talk.

Chen Qiniang immediately understood: Ling Qingyun did not come to the Du family to appease the Zhen family, because she had already received the respect of the Zhen family.

"Is someone sick?" Chen Qiniang thought to herself.

Chen Qiniang knew that Ling Qingyun's medical skills were superb, although Ling Qingyun never showed off, Chen Qiniang would not despise her ability.

She thought to herself, and silently took a sip of wine. The rippling wine of the Western Regions dyed Chen Qiniang's lips ruddy and charming.

***

"Who's that woman?" In the attic on the second floor outside the flower hall, behind the light-colored curtains, three or four men were standing, looking at the ladies in the room.

They were all young, about seventeen or eighteen years old.

It may be that they are going to say goodbye, and the woman comes in for the feast, so they hide behind the curtain and peep.

Unexpectedly, there was a medium-sized, slightly chubby young man who saw Ling Qingyun at a glance.

Today's Ling Qingyun, wearing a golden hairpin, under the sunlight, the golden hairpin glows with pale golden light, and it falls warmly on her face, and there are a few different kinds of charming and graceful.

"I don't know."

"Go and inquire."

"What, you like that woman? Looking at her outfit, she should not be married yet, I don't know which family she is."

"What do I want to know if she's married or not?" The man looked at Ling Qingyun's fair face, and could imagine how delicate and smooth her skin was, and he immediately became lustful.

He doesn't want to marry a wife, so why should he care about the other party's identity, whether he is married or not, etc.

Then, they saw that Ling Qingyun was taken away by Zhen's mother Cheng.

"Go and ask Zhen, and you'll know who it is." The man laughed.

"No matter who she is, once she knows your identity, she can't wait to give her a hug. Brother is so envious of you. ”

When the man heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and his face was proud.

Ling Qingyun didn't know this, she followed Cheng's mother to Zhen's backyard.

She finally saw the patient.

The patient is six years old, with dull eyes and drooling at the corners of his mouth. For more than a year since he was sick, the sick family didn't eat much, so he described him as emaciated.

"Da Lang, the doctor has come to see you." Zhen smiled and gently brushed his son's face.

A moment later, Du Yongqi and his mother, Sun, also arrived.

"Miss Ling, please check your pulse." Du Yongqi said to Ling Qingyun.

Ling Qingyun bowed, sat down and began to diagnose the pulse of the Du family's grandson.

Then she looked at the tongue coating again.

The child's pulse is astringent, the tongue coating is white and greasy, the sublingual lines are purple and dark, and the convexity is obvious. Ling Qingyun looked at the appearance of this child again, and she completely understood in her heart.

"Did the little boy break his waist two years ago?" Ling Qingyun asked everyone in the Du family.

When everyone heard this, they were slightly stunned.

Because the doctors never didn't ask that.

Du Dalang's illness was six months after he fell on his waist. So many doctors were invited, and no one asked about it.

Ling Qingyun was the first to ask.
