Chapter 232: Returning the Favor

Xu Qijin frowned and asked Xu Qirong, "Has she ever contacted Cousin Hui?" ”

Xu Qirong shook his head: "It shouldn't be, the matter has reached the point of the back, she also knows what is going on, if she contacts Cousin Hui, won't it affect the Lu family?" ”

Isn't that ungrateful! Xu Qijin was very unhappy.

Xu Qirong sneered: "She thinks that if she looks at the Shen family in everything now, her grandmother will forgive her!" Don't you know that it is precisely this that makes my grandmother and third uncle and third aunt even more cold! ”

Xu Qijin sighed: "At the beginning, I only thought she was more reliable and thoughtful than Cousin Hui, but I still can't believe that she actually did this kind of thing for a man!" Cousin Hui really impressed me. ”

Xu Qirong felt a little uncomfortable for Shen Yahui in his heart, so he didn't want to talk about this anymore, so he changed the topic and asked Xu Qijin: "Jiaren's sons are about to turn one year old now, and I heard that they were raised by Jiaren to be chubby, which is very cute." I heard that Yang Mengyun is also pregnant with Liujia now, let's go tomorrow, what gifts do we bring? If you didn't think of this before you came back, and didn't bring the right things, you might as well go to my storeroom and pick one. ”

When Xu Qijin heard her words, he smiled: "I'm a sister, I give gifts to others, and I have to go to my sister's treasury to pick them, how can I be embarrassed?" ”

Xu Qirong glanced at her: "I'm not a generous person, if you refuse like this, I really won't give it to you!" ”

Xu Qijin choked. Before she came back, she did think about Jiaren's two precious sons, but she didn't expect that Yang Mengyun was now pregnant with Liujia. I really have to go to Xu Qirong's warehouse to pick and choose.

In the evening, after dinner, Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong talked about it. Master Xu Si said: "It's rare for you to meet, there are a lot of good things in Daddy, you pick one, the New Year's Eve is a big visit, and it's not good for the elders not to go to the New Year." ”

Xu Qijin said with a smile: "We have already prepared, we can't always think about Daddy's things!" But Daddy has to be really willing, when I leave. Just give me a bronze jue and an Ou plastic tea tray on a moonlit night in the spring river. ”

Master Xu Si naturally heard that she was joking, so he said: "There is no one left in the Spring River Flower Moon Night, only one Lao Su is left fishing." Do you want it? ”

Xu Qijin has always liked delicate things, and this old man fishing is not what the little lady likes, so Xu Qirong joked: "It can be seen that my father is still the most partial to me." ”

Du Zhong couldn't see that the father and daughter were joking, and he felt a little upset for Xu Qijin. turned his head to Xu Qijin and said, "If you like it." I got a Roselle picture the year before last, but it wasn't a tea tray, but a screen. If you like it, go back and let the white screen find it for you. ”

Xu Qijin was a little surprised, paused slightly, and did not refuse Du Zhong's kindness, and said: "In this way, thank you husband for cutting your love." ”

Du Zhong shook his head: "I don't really like this kind of thing. If you like it, use it. You and I are husband and wife. It doesn't have to be that way. ”

Xu Qijin was even more surprised, in front of people, although Du Zhong gave her face, he never said such a thing. At the moment, the roots of the ears and neck were red. Xu Qijin was originally good-looking, with fair skin, but now his ears and neck are red, and he looks even more cowardly.

Master Xu Si only loved the little two, afraid that Xu Qijin would be thin-skinned, so he didn't make fun of it.

Xu Qirong saw it in his eyes, and felt that the relationship between his sister and brother-in-law might not be so bad, and his brother-in-law was not without merit.

immediately said: "Daddy, who did you make an appointment for your brother-in-law tomorrow?" ”

Master Xu Si thought that Xu Qirong was embarrassed by Xu Qijin and deliberately changed the topic, so he didn't think about it: "Your Uncle Gu said that he was free these days, and when I went over to play chess, I thought about taking your brother-in-law to your Uncle Gu tomorrow." ”

Xu Qirong said: "In that case, don't go to Uncle Gu's side first." Ming'er, my sister and I went to the General's Mansion and asked my brother-in-law to send us over. Yang Mengyun is in a special situation now, and her husband must accompany her back to the General's Mansion. General Yang Xiao is still at the border now, and his brother-in-law has gone, so he can talk to Tan Zhizhou for a while. ”

Yang Mengyun's husband's surname is Tan, but he is not a wealthy family. It's just that her husband Tan Wenzhi was a two-list jinshi five years ago, and the current Tanhualang hand-picked by the saint was first sentenced in Chenzhou, and at the end of his three-year term, he was immediately transferred to Jingzhou as the lord of Zhizhou. There is news that when Tan Wenzhi's three-year term expires this time, the saint will transfer him to Dali Temple.

Tan Wenzhi has some real talent and learning, and the strategies he writes are even praised by today's saints. Everyone said that the current saint planned to leave him to the old prince as a capable minister.

If Du Zhong befriended Tan Wenzhi, there would be no harm at all. Xu Qirong brought it up at this time, which can be regarded as a return for the peach, thanking Du Zhong for his little care for her sister.

When Xu Qijin heard Xu Qirong say this, he immediately came back to his senses, thinking in his heart, he spoke for me once, and I should thank him, so he said: "Except for the two children under the age of one in the General's Mansion, there are no men to receive male guests, Tan Zhizhou is also very embarrassed to come, and the husband went, which just solved his embarrassment." ”

Du Zhong turned his head and glanced at Master Xu Si.

Master Xu Si nodded, although he never planned for himself, he didn't understand it at all. immediately said to Du Zhong: "Jin'er and Zhuo Zhuo are right, you will send their sisters to the General's Mansion tomorrow!" ”

Du Zhong hurriedly agreed. Tan Wenzhi has also heard of this person, and his father has also mentioned it once or twice, saying that he is a thousand-mile horse, and he will travel thousands of miles sooner or later. Such a person has only advantages and no harm in making friends.

Early the next morning, Du Zhong escorted the two sisters to the General's Mansion.

When the porter of the General's Mansion saw them, he immediately went in to report, and the people inside knew that Xu Qijin's husband was also with him, so he immediately notified Tan Wenzhi, who was reading in the study.

The subordinates of the General's Mansion led a few people inside, and when they reached the second gate, they saw a man wearing a long shirt and full of energy walking over quickly, it was Tan Wenzhi.

Except for the little maid, there are only two of them here, so there is no need to deliberately greet them, and the two of them speculated in a few words.

Du Zhong introduced Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong to Tan Wenzhi, Tan Wenzhi is a cultured person, and he didn't look at the two sisters carefully, but only lowered his eyes and said hello, which was considered a full courtesy. Then Tan Wenzhi accompanied Du Zhong to see Mrs. Yang.

Tan Wenzhi just arrived at the General's Mansion yesterday, and was pulled by Mrs. Yang to ask for warmth, but he felt nothing, but today, Yang Mengyun went to accompany his sister-in-law and mother, and he was not a man who was there to hinder others from talking considerately, so he had to read books in the study by himself.

Most of the books in the General's Mansion are the art of war, talking about marching and fighting, and he doesn't have much interest, and he is bored, so he heard that the eldest son of Du Guangsheng, the salt transportation envoy from Jiangsu and Zhejiang, came, and he hurriedly greeted him.

After greeting Mrs. Yang and saying hello, Tan Wenzhi pulled Du Zhong to leave first, and Mrs. Yang instructed the little maid to follow and listen to the call, so she didn't care about them.

Xu Qijin and Xu Qirong haven't seen Yang Mengyun for a long time, and now they are very happy to see them. Yang Mengyun's belly was already visible, wearing loose clothes, and he was a little cautious in his actions. Where is there still the heroism of the former gatekeeper.

Xu Qijin pursed his lips and smiled.

Yang Mengyun's face flushed, and he didn't stop it: "You will laugh at me now, when others laugh at you in the future, don't be too stingy!" ”

This time it was Xu Qijin's turn to blush.

Xu Qirong hurriedly relieved his sister and asked, "What about Brother Yuan and Ya Ge'er?" Is this still sleeping? ”

Mrs. Yang and Jiaren both planned to wait for Yang Jingcheng to return from the expedition to name the two children, so now the eldest one is called Yuan Ge'er, and the younger one is called Ya Ge'er, and there is no proper name.

Speaking of his children, the expression on Jiaren's face became softer and softer, and said, "The nurse just took them to feed, if you don't bother them, I'll let them be brought over." ”

Mrs. Yang said with a smile: "The two boys are worthy of being the children of our Yang family, their arms and legs are strong, if you tease them later, you can pay attention to your hair and jewelry, don't let them get their hands!" ”

Xu Qijin had never seen such a young child, so he immediately smiled and said, "A doll that is only a few months old, how much strength can it have?" ”

Mrs. Yang was silent with a smile, and Jiaren hurriedly called someone to call the nurse to bring the child over.

After a while, I saw two nurses coming with their children in their arms, followed by two maids, whose hair and shoulders were still a little wet, but the nurses and the child in their arms were clean.

The nurse explained: "It's snowing outside, and the two little masters are clamoring to catch the snow, tsk, how dare you let them touch such a cold thing?" Fortunately, the lady and the county lord are here, otherwise the slave and maid really have no way to take the two young masters! ”

Yuan Ge'er and Ya Ge'er had a pair of big black eyes, one of them saw his mother, he reached out to Jiaren to hug, and the other leaned over to get closer to Xu Qirong.

Jiaren first hurriedly asked the maid to pick up the phoenix hairpin on her head, and then reached out to bear the child from the nurse's hand, looked at Xu Qirong, and said with a smile: "Sister Rong, our brother Yuan likes you!" ”

Brother Yuan struggled, and the nurse couldn't hold it, so she had to go to Xu Qirong's side according to his wishes.

Mrs. Yang laughed and hurriedly said, "Don't listen to Jiaren's words, quickly take off the hairpin of the jewel tassel on your head, otherwise he will pull your hair." ”

Xu Qirong pursed his lips and smiled, and asked Qiu Nong to take off the hairpin on his head, and then reached out to hug Brother Yuan'er.

Who knew that Brother Yuan didn't look at the hairpin, and as soon as he arrived in Xu Qirong's arms, he bumped into Xu Qirong's face and printed Xu Qirong's saliva. (To be continued......)
