When Jin Qi returned to Yunqi Courtyard, there were already people waiting in the lobby.

The person who came was Fu Ping, who was standing in front of a landscape painting hanging in front of the hall with his hands in his hands.

Hearing the movement behind him, he hurried forward to salute.

He rarely came to the Jin State Mansion without being summoned by Jin Qi.

"What's wrong?" Jin Qi asked directly.

"Master, Ruan Ping's traitor has been clarified, and it is as expected by the master." Fu Ping lowered his voice slightly and said, "I couldn't be sure before, but my subordinates got the exact news around noon today, just as the master guessed before......"

That man didn't even die.

Jin Qi listened, and a chill appeared in the light of his eyes.

"With this person here, I'm afraid that there will be countless secrets to be leaked in the future, and the power he has deployed everywhere in the Jin family should not be underestimated." Fu Ping clearly looked like a group of scholars, but there was also a sense of decisiveness in the words he said: "But do you want to get rid of it as soon as possible?" ”

Jin Qi said, "No need. ”

Seek skin with the tiger, just survive.

"Let him live a few more days in the Han family's military camp."

Since he is not dead, he cannot be allowed to die so easily.

……

Song Chunyue has become idle recently, and when she has nothing to do, she will hold Ah Rong to talk to Jiang Ying.

Jiang Ying found that something seemed wrong with her today, and she always seemed to have something to say and stopped.

"Is there something wrong with the family?" Jiang Ying asked tentatively.

"Hi...... What trouble can I have at home. Song Chunyue said: "Uncle Cheng's cousin's leg is already good, and the turmoil in Beijing has almost subsided." The family will leave for Suzhou in a few days, and they have been preparing things for the past two days. When they leave, I have to be idle, and there is nothing else to do. ”

Jiang Ying heard that her words didn't seem to be fake, and couldn't help but say suspiciously: "Then what do you have to say to me?" ”

"Call you stupid, but sometimes you're quite clever......," Song Chunyue sighed with a smile.

As soon as Jiang Ying heard this, she knew that she was really in trouble.

"What the hell is going on?"

"I'm not sure, it's just a guess based on intuition, you just listen to it, you just need to know a rough idea, and you don't have to take it too seriously. I'm just, too...... I'd like to give you a general reminder. Song Chunyue said before opening her mouth.

Jiang Ying nodded confusedly. Motioned for her to just speak.

"Do you remember Jingping's cousin, Cheng Zhizhi?"

"Of course I remember, but does it have anything to do with her?" Although this Cheng Zhizhi girl Jiang Ying has only met two or three times before and after, she still has an impression.

After all, there was such a involvement.

"This matter has to start from that time when I went to the street with her and Wen Qing...... Song Chunyue said while gently patting her daughter who was eating her fingers in her arms, "That day on the street." Halfway through our walk, it suddenly took a turn for the worse and it rained. Because it is near Yijiangchun. Wen Qing proposed to go to the restaurant to take shelter from the rain - Ah An was also in the restaurant at that time, and it was past noon, and it was time to relax. He talked to us for a while. ”

Jiang Ying's face was full of 'Is there anything wrong with this?'

Song Chunyue glanced at her helplessly and continued: "It was also at that time that Ah An knew that Zhizhi was the girl he saved. ”

When Jiang Ying heard this, she finally grasped a key point.

Since then, the two of them have seen each other once in a while, and I didn't take it too seriously at first. But didn't you steam a few baskets of steamed buns with minced bean sprouts and minced meat two nights ago and asked Ah An to send us to taste them, when I came out of the kitchen, I happened to see him and Zhizhi talking quietly...... "Song Chunyue said this, and the meaning was already obvious.

She suspected that the two of them had seen each other right.

Jiang Ying was surprised for a while, and subconsciously said, "This shouldn't be...... I haven't heard him mention it. ”

Song Chunyue glanced at her and said, "Why would he mention this kind of thing to you as a little girl?" ”

Jiang Ying thinks about it, and it is indeed the same.

But Fang Er's performance has been so good lately, he has been so focused on the restaurant that he can't tell that he has the rhythm of his sweetheart at all.

"I don't know much about A'an's side, but Zhizhi has been in a good mood lately, and she really looks like a ......" Song Chunyue guessed: "I'm afraid that the two of them have already thought about each other, but they haven't directly picked it out yet." ”

"It's really hard to say." Jiang Ying frowned, "But it seems that we shouldn't mix too much." ”

"Who would dare to mix it up...... I'll tell you the truth, it's not that I hate the poor and love the rich, but that the father and mother of Zhizhi are really difficult to get into the elegant hall, not because of their family background, but because of their poor character...... If you really marry such a person, you may have a lot of trouble in the future. Song Chunyue sighed and said, "Although Zhizhi's child is not bad, the marriage between the two families has never been just a matter of two young people, but a matter of two families. Do you know what I mean? ”

Although she is a relative of her family, she really can't speak with her conscience.

"I understand what you mean." Jiang Ying nodded, and asked again, "Have you told the nurse and Uncle Liang about this matter?" ”

"Not really. First, I'm just guessing, and secondly, I'm also worried about things that didn't exist in the first place, and I'm afraid that we will really have to do something. Since they haven't broken it, let's wait and see. Or under the influence of Zhou Jingping, Jiang Ying felt that Song Chunyue was much more thoughtful now than before.

She nodded in agreement.

If this matter really develops, it will indeed be a little troublesome, but it is too early to say that everything is too early, and there is no need to look at this matter like a thief.

"Anyway, I'll tell you this, you just have a bottom in your heart." Song Chunyue finally said.

"I see, don't worry."

Ah Rong listened to the two adults talking, with small black eyes and a curious and innocent look.

The sun is shining outside the window, and the white clouds are rolling up from time to time.

The days that followed passed quickly and peacefully.

After a heavy snowfall. Soon ushered in the Spring Festival again.

This year's Chinese New Year's Eve in the Liang family's mansion is more lively than last year.

There are more Fang Da and Fang Er, and there are more Jiang Lang and Dongzhu.

Liang Wenqing and Song Chunfeng were too lazy to turn on the cold stove alone, didn't pay attention to any unruly rules, and cheekily went back to their parents' house to eat.

It's just that Jiang Ying, who entered the genealogy of the Kong family, was a little troublesome, and was taken to the Kong clan early this morning, first stayed in the clan for a very formal lunch, and then followed Kong Fu and a large group of people to worship the ancestral temple of the Kong family in the afternoon.

After doing all this, I stopped by to see Hua Changjing, who hadn't been able to see each other for a while.

Only then did I know that Hua Changjing hadn't gone out recently. It turned out to be because she was pregnant.

said that he wanted someone to pass on the past. But I felt that it was not appropriate to deliberately send a message to a friend who had not yet left the cabinet because of this kind of thing, so I just did it, and only thought that I would tell Jiang Ying in person when I saw him next time.

Jiang Ying didn't say anything about it, she was just very happy for her. asked her if she had sent a message to Ruan Ping to inform Shi Qing.

Hua Changjing shook his head and said with a smile that he hadn't yet. I don't want him to worry about it outside. Second, I want to surprise him when he returns to Beijing.

Jiang Ying couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, at first she was afraid that she would feel lonely when she was alone at home for the Spring Festival. I heard Hua Changjing say that she would also go back to Hua's house for a reunion dinner tonight, and she only needed to rush back before the time was right, and it was not a violation of the rules.

Jiang Ying was relieved at this time, and accompanied her for a while, telling her to carefully recuperate and recuperate, and seeing that she was a little tired, she didn't disturb her to take a nap, and then set off back to Yushu Hutong.

And most of the afternoon time was spent on accompanying the nurse to prepare for the reunion dinner in the evening.

Liang Wenqing, who is married to a wife, is also much more diligent than in previous years, although he is here to eat, he is willing to go into the kitchen to help.

It's just that the sky is dark, and it's time to start eating, but I haven't seen the shadow of Song Chunfeng yet.

Zhuang asked, and Liang Wenqing replied: "I went to Fang's house at noon, saying that Fang Xinyuan was alone for the festival, and he, as a brother, wanted to accompany him more." I want to come to Fang's house at noon, and I don't eat or drink-" Speaking of this, I have to tell the maid to go to Fang's house to have a look.

Jiang Ying, who was chopping vegetables on the side, was stunned, looked at her and asked, "Fang Xinyuan is back?" ”

Zhuang was also very surprised, "Why didn't you listen to the spring breeze?" ”

"You don't know, huh?" Liang Wenqing looked at the two of them in astonishment, and said with a smile: "It's been almost two months since they came back - it seems that they returned to Beijing around the same time as Jin Qi." ”

Jiang Ying was dumbfounded when she heard this.

It's been more than two months since I've been back?!

She hadn't heard of it at all.

"Why haven't you ever been here?" Zhuang thought it was very strange.

Not to mention that before he left Beijing, he was bent on curing Jiang Ying's illness at the root, but after he came back, he never came to ask about it too abnormal, just saying that his temperament that loves to eat and drink can stay in Beijing for two months without coming to eat, it is enough to be amazing.

"Haven't you been?" Liang Wenqing blinked his eyes and said, "I came over twice in three days when he was still him, but I haven't been touched." ”

"What's the matter with this kid?" Since he was saved by Fang Xinyuan, the Zhuang family, who has gradually changed his opinion, is a little unhappy.

Originally, there were so many contacts, why didn't they even tell them the news of returning to Beijing all of a sudden?

What kind of wind is this?

"It's a big holiday, what can he do at home if he doesn't even have a daughter-in-law? Go and ask Atai to run to Fang's house, call him back with Chunfeng, prepare such a big table of dishes, and don't mind having more chopsticks. Zhuang said with a frown.

Jiang Ying also frowned.

She also felt that Fang Xinyuan's actions were abnormal.

"I'll ask him when he comes." Zhuang kneading the dough under his hands while muttering.

But Fang Xinyuan didn't come with Song Chunfeng.

According to Song Chunfeng, he had a big drink with Fang Xinyuan at noon, and he was fine, but Fang Xinyuan was so drunk that he couldn't sober up yet, and was helped back to the room by Ah Fu with a bowl of sobering soup, and now he was asleep, and he really couldn't come over.

Zhuang didn't have anything to do with a drunk person, so he only asked Song Chunfeng: "Why haven't I heard you say that he returned to Beijing?" ”

"I thought you all knew about it......"

"This kid is so dignified, he won't come here if he doesn't come. I don't know, I think our family has offended him. Zhuang said half angrily, half funny.

Song Chunfeng laughed twice and explained, "Where is the ...... After he returned to Beijing, he had to deal with a bunch of things in the medicine store personally, and he was busy from morning to night, so he probably couldn't spare time. At lunch today, he also asked about his mother-in-law and Sakura. ”

Zhuang didn't want to blame anything after hearing this, she was not an unreasonable person, she only said: "The medicine store will not open until the sixth day of the new year to do business, you go back and talk to him." If it's okay, come and pay a New Year's greeting. Have a meal together. ”

This child is alone, and a family is gone, which is quite pitiful.

Song Chunfeng smiled and agreed.

Jiang Ying on the side always felt that something was not quite right.

No matter how busy you are, you shouldn't even have time to say hello, right?

But before she could think about it any more, a string of crackling firecrackers rang in her ears.

This is the rule of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new before eating Chinese New Year's Eve.

Fang Da and Fang Er's loud laughter came from ahead. There is also a playful shout from Liang Ping. Urging: "Hurry up, hurry up." It's served, it's served! ”

Song Chunfeng hurriedly went to help Yunli serve food to the dining room, but he couldn't be diligent.

Jiang Ying was suspicious in her heart, and followed with two plates of cold dishes.

"Is something happening to the Fang family again?" She asked Song Chunfeng in a low voice.

"Huh?" Song Chunfeng laughed. Immediately shook his head and said, "What else can happen to the Fang family now?" Don't worry, it's all right. ”

"That Fang Xinyuan he-"

This time, before Jiang Ying finished asking, Song Chunfeng interrupted her and said, "It's really nothing, I said that you are all one by one, how can you think of the bad in everything." A few days ago, I was really busy, not to mention Ah Yuan, even I followed the busy feet without touching the ground, and at the end of the year, there were many tedious things that needed to be dealt with one by one. ”

Jiang Ying was still a little unconvinced.

"Then wait for the third year of junior high school, you accompany me to Fang's house, my illness can be suppressed thanks to the prescription he prescribed, and he didn't say a word to us when he left, and I didn't have time to thank him."

Song Chunfeng coped with it, but his eyes were embarrassed.

……

During the Spring Festival once a year, Xiaojuan, the maid at home, went home for the New Year on vacation, and Jiang Ying didn't let Yunli wait by her side as usual, but added a chair and let her sit next to her.

Yun Li said at first that she was reluctant to sit down, saying that she couldn't exceed her duty as a subordinate, and finally sat down by Zhuang's hand, and her face was red after struggling a few times, but she couldn't resist Zhuang's strength, so she had to honestly take the chopsticks handed over by Jiang Ying.

Looking at a table of carefully prepared meals, I couldn't help but redden.

pinched his palms, thinking that today was a good day for the New Year, and he couldn't sweep everyone's interest, so he reluctantly suppressed his tears.

Liang Ping improvised a funny toast poem, which caused laughter.

Fang Dafang Er still had such a lively and happy Spring Festival for the first time, insisting on toasting everyone one by one, but in the end he got himself drunk.

Zhuang seemed happier than ever.

For so many years, she has been looking forward to Jiang Lang's return every day, and now although she has changed her appearance and identity, she has come back well.

Looking at the two brothers and sisters sitting next to each other whispering something in a whisper, Jiang Yingxiao's eyes narrowed, Zhuang didn't hold back, and actually shed two strings of tears.

Fortunately, it was erased very quickly before it was discovered.

After eating a happy and jubilant reunion dinner, everyone who was more or less stained with wine was smiling, and they all had red cheeks.

Fang Dafang Er drank the most and enjoyed the most, and was directly helped back to the room.

Although Liang Ping didn't dare to get drunk under Zhuang's nose, he also looked slightly drunk, and seeing that his steps were a little vain, Zhuang's directly canceled his qualification to go out to watch the fireworks, and forcibly dragged people back to the courtyard to sober up.

"Let's go out for a walk." Dongzhu said to Jiang Ying and the others.

Last year, she also spent the Spring Festival in the Windy Country, and she still remembers that time because she grabbed a lantern with Liang Wenqing, and fought with Song Chunfeng on the street.

Thinking of this, Dongzhu felt quite embarrassed.

Liang Wenqing obviously thought of this as well, but it was all in the past, and there was nothing to mention.

But she still said: "It seems that there is still a light snow outside, and the spring breeze has eaten a lot of wine, so we won't join in the fun." When the Chinese New Year is over, there can't even be no one in the family who keeps the New Year. ”

became a parent, but in the end, it was still different from the little girl.

Jiang Ying didn't force her, thinking that she and Dongzhu had already made an agreement with the Queen Mother, and decided to go out to watch fireworks together tonight, and seeing that the time was not early, she said to Yunli: "You go to the nurse and say that my brother and I are going out for a walk, and we will come back before the time." ”

Yun Li smiled and went down.

……

……

"When you were young, you liked to come out to watch fireworks on Chinese New Year's Eve. At that time, my father and mother were still there, my mother held my hand, Aunt Zhuang held you in her arms, and my father always walked in front to lead the way, so as not to let us be scattered by the crowd. Walking on the lively city street, Jiang Lang recalled the past.

Jiang Ying was afraid that he would be sad, so she said: "Now that we have settled in the second half of our lives, if my father and mother know about it, they should also be blind." ”

Jiang Lang's cheeks twitched when he heard this.

What does it mean that we have settled in the second half of our lives?

It's as if he's getting married...

Dongzhu was eating and laughing on the side.

Jiang Lang raised his hand helplessly, and his subordinates rubbed Jiang Ying's head through the hood, "Cheng Rijing will say such nonsense." ”

Jiang Ying raised her face and smiled at him.

The three of them came to the fork in the road agreed with the Queen Mother, but they had not yet seen the shadow of the Queen Mother.

It shouldn't have arrived yet.

A few people were not in a hurry, standing there talking about the trouble, waiting for people.

"Sakura, Sakura!"

In the noisy flow of people, there was a sudden shout with a smile.

Jiang Ying followed the prestige, and faintly saw a raised hand in the crowd, waving in her direction.
