Chapter 166: Like Me
After coming out of Cui's house, the second master asked him to inquire about Miss Jiang, they were from the beginning of the headless to the search for some eyebrows, I don't know how many people they found, and when they arrived at the second master, it was all wrong.
Miss Jiang from Yangzhou, they didn't find out because they lived at her grandmother's house before, and it took a lot of effort to find it now.
After finally finding someone, the second master was not in a hurry to see it as usual.
Cui Yiting sat down and lowered his head to take a sip of tea, thinking of Yao Wanning's hands that shuttled on his shoulders and the smile that stood in front of people and always hung on his face.
Miss Yao Qi was not quite the same as the person in his memory, but it slowly overlapped in his mind.
If he was just looking for a young lady surnamed Jiang, why bother, what he wanted to do was the person in his heart.
"Ma'am."
The voice of a servant came from outside the door.
The cyan curtain was lifted, and Mrs. Cui followed in.
Cui Yiting stood up and welcomed his mother into the room and sat down.
Mrs. Cui looked at the simple furnishings in the room, there were a bunch of official documents on the table, and there was no one to bring tea and water.
"Why did you even beat Uncle Chen like that."
Hearing that Uncle Chen was beaten by Yiting, she hurried to Chen's house to compensate for it, she thought it was just a mistake, who knew that Uncle Chen's eyes were bruised, his face was swollen, and the whole person leaned on the soft couch and couldn't get up, which really scared her, she wanted to come forward to ask, but Uncle Chen was afraid. repeatedly said that it had nothing to do with Yiting.
Mrs. Cui looked at her son, "That is, me, if someone else changes." I've been by you for a long time. ”
There was still something going on in the yamen today, Chen Jiran asked the little girl to come to him, and he followed, he knew in his heart that it was impossible for Miss Yao Qi to marry.
Old Lady Chen and Second Master Chen are bent on marrying a scholarly lady, and now Chen Jiran has been admitted to the Juren again, and then he can go to the official career if he is a Jinshi.
In the eyes of ordinary people, it is already an excellent marriage match, Chen Jiran's weak temperament. In the eyes of Miss Yao Qi, it is not worth mentioning.
When he arrived at Chen's house, he sat down, and Chen Zhongran broke into the house. said Miss Yao Qi's words.
He heard the phrase, "Unless she's in good shape...... turned around and swung it out with a punch.
At that time, he knew that he already cared so much about Miss Yao Qi in his heart.
From the beginning, he looked down on Shang Jia, and later went to Beijing with her. He didn't immediately remember what she looked like. But as long as I think of her, it is the smile on her face, the character of not being afraid of heaven and earth.
What kind of woman has such a temperament.
The man he was looking for was also of such a character, in the chaotic barracks, no matter what kind of injuries he saw, he was not afraid, and he was full of dirty blood but did not think so.
In the cold winter wax moon, wearing a coarse cloth shirt. Take people to rub medicinal powder and teach people to dry briquettes with holes. Ordinary women will feel inferior and sad when they burn their faces, but she doesn't care, and often turns away from people and speaks in a low and hoarse voice.
He had heard her laughter, but not her crying.
He had seen her standing on the wall and looking down, and asking him where the Varat was, and the wind blew her clothes and the lamp she carried flickered and flickered, and she was not afraid, but only smiled.
There will be no two such women in this world.
He can't be wrong.
Either the person in his heart is her, or she becomes the person in his heart.
As a result, it was all the same, because he believed that he was the same person in his heart at all times.
It doesn't matter if her surname is Yao or Jiang.
"Mother," Cui Yiting raised his head to look at Mrs. Cui, "what if the child has a woman he likes?" ”
Mrs. Cui was stunned for a while, and then said, "Then ...... Tell my mother which family the woman is, if it is a good match, I will look for Baoshan to say goodbye. ”
Cui Yiting didn't seem to hear, "I should do my best to make her like me." ”
……
Wan Ning went to the Marquis of Zhongyi Mansion early in the morning.
Mrs. Zhao took Zhao Ruyin and waited at the Hanging Flower Gate, and when she saw Wanning, Zhao Ruyin immediately wrapped her arms around.
Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "On weekdays, we exchange letters, but now I can be regarded as seeing them." ”
The Ministry of Rites returned the Danshu iron coupon, and now Zhao Qi is a serious Zhongyi Hou, the old Zhongyi Hou has been dead for a long time, and now the Zhongyi Hou Mansion is happy again.
Several people entered the hall, and Mrs. Zhao said in a low voice: "Zhao Fan has been convicted of capital crimes, Zhao Fan's house has also been raided, and that Hua Ming Xuan found a box of tea stolen from you, which is the same as what the guys in the Shen family's shop said." ”
"The Zhang family was also affected this time, I heard that the shops under your stepmother's hands have been investigated."
Wan Ning nodded.
Zhao Ruyin said: "Then did your stepmother bully you?" ”
Zhang Shi thought, Wan Ning smiled and said, "It's okay, I can still handle this." ”
"That is, you," Mrs. Zhao sighed, "if you are someone else, you will not even have bones left after being eaten, and your stepmother used to be famous, but now, everyone is saying that she wants to seize the property in the hands of her stepdaughter." ”
She had already grasped Hua Mingxuan's handle, just to wait until the right time to take it out and achieve the best effect, and in the future in the Yao family, the Zhang family would no longer dare to calculate her casually.
Mrs. Chen said in a low voice: "What about the Chen family's relatives? ”
The Chen family collected it quickly, and in order not to make trouble in the city, they deliberately spread the news of the Zhang family and Hua Mingxuan, so only the elders of the Chen Yao family knew what was going on.
She had made it clear in front of her father that it was impossible for her to marry someone whose dowry was geometric.
Mrs. Chen said: "I was really shocked to hear that you don't sell tea anymore, thanks to the peak loop turning ......."
If it weren't for Hua Mingxuan's calculations, her tea wouldn't have risen one after another.
As she spoke, the mother-in-law outside said, "Master Hou and Sixth Master Shen are here." ”
Zhao Qi wore a royal blue short fight and entered the door one after the other with Brother Kun.
Wan Ning stood up and saluted Zhao Qi.
Zhao Qi was a little ashamed, but he could only blush because of the etiquette.
"What are Hou Ye and Sixth Master going to do?" Mrs. Chen said, "Why do you get covered in sweat?" ”
Zhao Qi said: "I practiced bows and arrows with Yong'an Hou in the backyard for a while. ”
Brother Kun sat next to Wan Ning, Wan Ning looked sideways, Brother Kun has grown a lot these days, and it won't be long before he will be taller than her.
Zhao Qi was a little proud, Brother Kun looked a little embarrassed, and Wan Ning said in a low voice: "You don't practice much, it will inevitably be worse." ”
Brother Kun nodded, "Marquis Yong'an said, teach me later." ”
Wan Ning intended to let Brother Kun learn some riding and archery, she and her uncle thought differently, in such an era, in addition to learning to make articles, boys should also learn martial arts and generals.
What she didn't expect was that Brother Kun and Zhao Qi had a similar temperament when they came to the Zhongyi Marquis' Mansion, and the two of them practiced riding and archery together, and it was Pei Mingzhao who taught them.
"Master Hou is amazing," Brother Kun said in a low voice, "Zhao Qi is only a little stronger than me." ”
The boy can compete unconsciously, so at first she will show Zhao Qi the book marked by Brother Kun.
Brother Kun was worried about going to the garden to talk to Pei Mingzhao, but Zhao Qi wanted to talk for a while, "When is Sister Yao's tea shop going to open?" ”
Wan Ning said: "Two more days." "After a while, it will sell better, and she wants to let the shopkeeper Jiao take advantage of this time to completely build the "Fushengyuan" tea shop.
After getting a satisfactory answer, a smile appeared on Zhao Fan's face, as if he had put down all his worries at once, and then stood up and followed Brother Kun out.
"I'll go into the palace to thank you," Mrs. Zhao took Wan Ning to the side room to speak, "Do you know who asked about tea?" ”
Wan Ning shook her head.
"Queen Mother," Mrs. Zhao said and paused, "The purple clay pot you made was sent to the palace by the county lord of An Yi, and you also talked about your non-selling tea." ”
"The queen asked me if your tea was no longer for sale, so I told me about Hua Mingxuan," Mrs. Zhao said, "You have to be prepared in your heart." ”
Hua Mingxuan is related to Zhao Fan, so the queen will ask Mrs. Zhao.
Wan Ning nodded.
Mrs. Zhao said: "I think it's because of the time when the imperial court is collecting tea, the palace will be concerned about the matter of tea." ”
For her, concern is a good thing.
The Zhao family came to tell the guests, and Mrs. Zhao got up to greet her, and Wanning and Zhao Ruyin went to the backyard to watch Zhao Qi and Kunge shoot arrows.
From a distance, Wan Ning saw Pei Mingzhao.
With a straight face, phoenix eyes slightly raised, a strict teacher with standard standards.
Wan Ning and Zhao Ruyin stood aside and laughed.
Whether it was Zhao Qi or Brother Kun, they all meticulously fiddled with the bow in their hands.
Brother Kun's thin arms trembled in the air.
"Did you ask Brother Kun to learn bows and arrows and read books on the art of war?" was about to be fascinated by it, and Pei Mingzhao's voice suddenly sounded in her ears, Wan Ning was startled, and turned her face to look over.
The sun was shining straight down, and she couldn't help but squint her eyes, and then automatically circled to his left to talk to him.
Pei Mingzhao looked over, Miss Yao Qi's relaxed face had an unrestrained expression, her eyes were slightly squinted, and her eyebrows and eyes were with a relaxed smile, "I asked Brother Kun to learn, but I didn't expect to meet Master Hou." ”
Wan Ning bowed and saluted, "Thank you Master Hou for helping teach Brother Kun." ”
Pei Ming said: "Brother Kun follows Mr. Yang Jing, and he will definitely enter the imperial examination in the future." ”
Wan Ning nodded, "Whether it's riding archery or the art of war, it may not be used in the future, but if you don't use it, you must understand it." "Reading is to know the political situation, learning martial arts knows the military, even if you don't enter the office, you must clearly know what kind of environment you live in.
If it was an ordinary woman who said such a thing, he would be surprised, but when it came to Miss Yao Qi, he felt that it was logical.
"I haven't thanked Hou Ye for helping me arrest Hua Mingxuan's people." Wan Ningfu walked over.
"The dead men you helped me try have eyebrows." Pei Mingzhao lowered his head and saw the jade butterfly above Miss Yao Qi's head, trembling as if she was about to fly.
