Chapter Ninety-Three: Let the Wind Blow
Seeing Mrs. Jiang's carriage leave, the jade qilin breathed a sigh of relief.
The gold ingot stood next to the jade unicorn, silently, found the hand of the jade unicorn under his sleeve, held it firmly, interlocked his fingers, and said lightly: "Today's morning banquet, you are like a puppet, you don't say or smile, it's really a shame for me." ”
Only then did the jade qilin understand why he had a bad face during the banquet, and hurriedly distinguished: "Mother is here, I always have to ......"
"You don't have to look at anyone's face in the future."
The jade qilin was interrupted, slightly startled.
Jin Yuan Bao looked at her with a side face, and then turned his head to see Mrs. Jiang away, slightly disdainful: "Your performance at the table today is not you at all, it is really useless." After that, he said with a straight face: "Jiang Xiaoxuan! You remember to me that no matter how much you have been wronged and angry before, now that you are married to me, you will no longer have to look at anyone's face. ”
Although these words were domineering, the jade qilin still heard the meaning of maintenance in his words. My heart was full of emotion, and I didn't care about his poisonous tongue before, shook his hand back vigorously, and smiled sweetly: "It's okay, it's okay!" ”
"Of course......" Jin Yuan added faintly, "except for my face." ”
This man! Don't bring such a domineering one! The jade unicorn was angry, and when he stepped on it, the gold ingots hurriedly jumped away: "Hey, hey, hey!" What are you doing! ”
When Mrs. Jin heard the movement, she turned her head and saw the two of them frolicking, and said with a smile and doting: "As soon as the tiger left, the monkey was alive." Let's go, let's all go home! ”
Everyone sent off the outsiders and sat in Mrs. Kim's room. Relax with a cup of tea. Mrs. Jin flipped through the ledger gift list and guest roster, looking more and more satisfied.
"Xiaoxuan's birthday banquet was very good. Orderly and ingenious, the face of my Jin Mansion is long. It's especially rare that it really only cost 20,000 taels of silver! Xiaoxuan, I can't see that you are a good material for a housekeeper! ”
Even the jade unicorn, who was very concerned about the good feelings, was happy and embarrassed when he heard this: "Xie Lu, thank your mother for complimenting." In fact, it's all because my cousin, Changfeng, and Xue'er help me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to do it. ”
What the? When the gold ingot, who was sitting on the side and playing with a big walnut, heard the word "cousin", even though he turned his head in displeasure, he didn't say it directly, and only used Gu Changfeng as a shield. Said: "Gu Changfeng? How can he help you with a nerd? It was served with porridge, and it was still ......."
"Nerd?" Yu Qilin said unhappily: "You are not allowed to call him a fool." Besides, it wasn't him who helped later! ”
Jin Yuan Bao disagreed: "He caused trouble by himself and ended it himself." ”
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Mrs. Jin hurriedly looked at Jin Yuanbao. Disgusted, he said, "Okay, okay! Xiaoxuan is the hardest, Changfeng, Wenzhao, and Xue'er are also hard, and you are also hard, okay? Xiaoxuan is right, you are not allowed to be a nerd in the future. Even if it's a brother. Respect each other too! ”
"Zhilu said......" The gold ingot was helpless and perfunctory.
Mrs. Jin stroked her forehead: "Okay!" I think, you are tired these days, and staying in this garden all day is also restrained, so just let you go out to play for a few days, and go to Xiluhe Zhuangzi! - By the way, collect rent. ”
Originally, I was quite happy to hear that Izuku was going to play gold ingots, but when I heard about the rent collection, I frowned: "You let me relax for a few days, and you still want me to collect rent?" We have so many stewards in our family. Can we collect rent? ”
"Xilu River?" Yu Qilin's heart moved, "Is there still Donglu River?" ”
Mrs. Jin disagreed: "That Zhuangzi in Dongluhe is too poor. Nothing fun. It's still a little richer in Xiluhe. After thinking about it, he said to Jin Yuanbao: "Although there are many stewards, you are the young master of the Jin Mansion, and you must know more about these general affairs." You see that Xiaoxuan saved 30,000 taels of silver at this birthday banquet. ”
"And there is no shortage of money." Gold Ingot muttered dissatisfied.
When Mrs. Jin heard this, she lowered her face and said, "No matter how big your family is, you must learn to be diligent and thrifty." Xiaoxuan did a good job of this. You don't have to say, take back the rent for me. ”
Yu Qilin hurriedly interjected: "Mother, since we are going to learn to be a housekeeper, I think we should go to Donglu River, if we don't endure hardships, how can we know how difficult it is to live in the Dao?" ”
"What?" Jin Yuan Bao was unhappy, "I want to go to you, I wasn't born to endure hardship." ”
As soon as she heard this, Mrs. Jin's brows furrowed even tighter, and she simply said categorically: "Let's go to Donglu River!" Is there anyone in the world who doesn't have to endure hardship? Even the emperor can't do everything as he wants, let alone us? Xiaoxuan is right, since you want to learn to be a housekeeper, you must know the hardships under the Dao, otherwise you, the eldest young master of the Golden Mansion, may never grow up. ”
"I don't ......" Jin Yuan just wanted to refute, but saw that the jade qilin looked happy, and when he swallowed the unspoken word "go", his lips moved, and said, "Okay, we will personally go and take back the rent for you." - There's no need to bring a bunch of people to guard the people, disturb the people, just the two of us. ”
Mrs. Jin was about to nod, but Jade Qilin happily interjected: "Then I'll bring Xue'er with me, okay?" ”
"Not good!" The gold ingots immediately objected, "What is she going to do?" Two people are not enough? ”
When Mrs. Jin heard this, she agreed, "What's wrong?" Didn't your mother-in-law say that there are two grasshoppers on a rope, go ahead! ”
Gu Changfeng, who was in a daze, heard the word "Xue'er", and automatically entered the state, muttering to himself: "Oh, then I have to hurry up and prepare, the climate in the mountains is unpredictable, and I need to bring some medicine." ”
Jin Yuan Bao turned his head to look at Gu Changfeng: "You want to go too?" Four people? - How dare you? ”
When Gu Changfeng received his threatening gaze, he couldn't help but be timid, shrunk his neck, choked for a long time, and slowly spit out two words: "I...... Dare. ”
After dinner, a room of maids was busy packing up their things in the house, the gold ingots sat on the side and gave orders, and the jade unicorn watched with his hands folded.
"Blanket belt four. Be light and warm. ”
The maid neatly folded four small blankets.
"Are there two more for Cher?" Jade Qilin asked.
"It's all for me." The gold ingots continued to command without looking back: "Don't want this set of tea sets, take that set of Ru kiln." The countryside is shabby, and no matter how good it looks after the rain, it doesn't deserve it. ”
"Bring me twelve sets of all kinds of laundry. Bring four in the snack box. ”
"I'm used to this agarwood pillow. - Since you've only been out for three days, why bother to adapt to a new pillow by yourself? ”
Half an hour later. The jade unicorn crossed her hands and looked at the luggage, her eyes widened and widened, she turned around and solemnly looked at the gold ingots and said, "Gold ingots!" You are only allowed to carry one baggage today. Just one. It's up to you to make the burden bigger, but only one. I don't go out with men who carry more than two – including two – baggage. ”
"For what? Who else do you want to go out with? "Gold ingots are angry.
The jade qilin glanced at him: "It's not for anything, it's a shame." ”
"Humph!" The gold ingot jumped up, glared at her, and then walked to the side of the baggage, touching his chin to look.
"Let's choose!" The jade unicorn raised its head in defiance.
The gold ingot thought about it and waved his hand to let the maid out. Without saying a word, he turned around, picked up the jade unicorn and put it on the table, and then casually pulled a piece of woven gold wrapper and wrapped it around her. It looks like a knot.
"Pack up, one baggage." Jin Ingot clapped his hands, "This is really a huge burden in my life Gold Ingot Treasure." ”
The jade qilin was stunned at first, and then looked down at the furoshiki on his body that was indiscriminately wrapped around the gold ingots. Look at his face that seems to be complaining but actually has a hidden smile. With a sweetness in my heart, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Gold ingots plate face: "What a smile!" Don't laugh! You're just a burden! ”
Hearing this, the jade qilin laughed even harder.
The gold ingots couldn't help but laugh and patted the jade unicorn, "Burden!" Actually, you are all in vain, and Gu Changfeng is ...... Look at it! ”
Early the next morning, the jade unicorn and the gold ingots stood in front of the carriage and waited.
Jiang Xiaoxuan and Gu Changfeng dragged together. Drag a huge box out the door.
Seeing that box, the jade qilin was instantly stunned.
The gold ingots raised their eyebrows: "I'm not wrong." "Say it. Step forward and help.
The two men dragged out the second box in the same way.
The jade unicorn was completely shocked at this moment.
Jiang Xiaoxuan was embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "This, Changfeng ...... Because I ......"
Gu Changfeng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile: "I brought a curtain to shade you, your skin is tender, and the sun in the mountains is poisonous." I also brought a mat for you to sit and lie on, and if you want to stop and look at the scenery along the way, you can spread it out; There's also a blanket that's lightweight, breathable and warm, so it's best to cover your legs for warmth on the road......"
"Also, the climate in the mountains is changeable, and the food is very different from the house, so we need to bring more medicine in case of emergency...... I brought Xiao Chai Hu to treat wind and cold, tablets to relieve chest tightness and shortness of breath, and stomach pills to eliminate food and stagnation, I brought a little more ......" Gu Changfeng said as he spoke, his thoughts seemed to drift a little, and he said to himself: "The people in the mountains eat roughly, Xue'er's stomach must be difficult to digest." Yes! I seem to have forgotten to bring the medicated oil for the smoked mosquitoes! Gu Changfeng said, patted his head and ran towards the mansion again.
"Changfeng ......" Jiang Xiaoxuan glanced at the jade qilin with some embarrassment, "I don't blame Changfeng, it's all because I ......"
The jade qilin smiled awkwardly, but he didn't know what to say.
The gold ingot looked at the box and said with a smile: "This time the box is indeed a little bigger. After speaking, he pulled the jade unicorn into the car.
Jade Qilin struggled for a moment: "I'll go help him." ”
"Don't help. Put it yourself. The gold ingots cocked their feet, "Come up, come up!" Let's wait slowly. ”
Jade Qilin Jiang Xiaoxuan was infected by the joy of gold ingots, the two met and smiled, and got into the car as they said.
Gu Changfeng was busy and tried to completely stuff the two boxes into the back compartment of the carriage, and finally succeeded after some hard work. Then he cautiously tried to squeeze into the carriage, which had become extremely cramped, but in the end he was still half of his body and one leg diagonally outside the carriage.
Jin Yuan Bao admired Gu Changfeng's embarrassment, and waited for him to sit down before speaking: "You come up too, who is driving the car?"
Gu Changfeng suddenly realized, and squeezed and wiped the carriage again: "I said why do you think there is something missing......
The three people in the car couldn't hold back any longer, laughed loudly, and the carriage started slowly in the sound of hearty laughter.
"I always feel like I'm missing something......" Gu Changfeng's voice came sneeringly.
"Shut up." The gold ingot simply interrupted. (To be continued......)
