Chapter 230: Old Accounts (4)

When Xia Yiqing came out of the clean room, Zhen Xuan was sitting on the bed, and Tao Aya was sitting on the edge of the bed rubbing her legs.

When I walked over, my trouser legs were rolled up, revealing my fair legs, and the cyan dots on my knees were particularly dazzling in the candlelight.

Zhen Xuan saw Xia Yiqing staring at her legs, and blushed and wanted to pull the brocade quilt to cover it, but was stopped by Xia Yiqing.

Xia Yiqing sat down beside Zhen Xuan and asked, "We knelt for a long time before we arrived at the Immortal Residence?" ”

Zhen Xuan shook her head: "It's not a long time, I only felt sore at the time, and I didn't think much about it, and I found Qingzi when I was freshening up just now." I don't know why it's so powerful. ”

Seeing that the couple had something to say, it was not good to delay in the bedroom any longer, so Fu Yifu retreated.

Xia Yiqing got up and took out a white jade bottle from the drawer at the end of the bed, poured some potion into the palm of his hand, and covered Zhen Xuan's knees.

Zhen Xuan was startled, shrunk her feet and wanted to hide: "Second master, it's good to ask the maid to do this kind of thing." ”

Xia Yiqing was silent, only held Zhen Xuan's ankle and didn't allow her to move, her hand kept rubbing, rubbing it carefully.

Zhen Xuan doesn't understand Qi Huang, and she can't tell the details just by the taste, she only feels that her nose is a little astringent and sour, and she can't say that it smells good. Xia Yiqing's movements were not light or heavy, and the warmth of the potion in the palm of his hand penetrated little by little, and he only felt mild at first, but after a while, his knees were faintly hot.

Probably because of the potions......

It's not just the knees, it's a lot more comfortable.

Zhen Xuan raised her eyes to look at Xia Yiqing, and when she looked from the side, she saw him rubbing medicine for her seriously, his thin lips pursed slightly, and his thick black eyebrows flew into his sideburns. Eyes are blazing and focused. That countenance is called a candlelight. It looks like warm jade.

It's so good-looking, so good-looking, Zhen Xuan doesn't dare to look at it anymore.

rubbed one leg, changed to another, and added medicine once, until Xia Yiqing felt that it was appropriate. He closed the bottle, and as soon as he looked up, he realized that his little lady had blushed and bit her lower lip and did not dare to look at anyone.

Look at Zhen Xuan's shy appearance. Xia Yiqing was a little stunned, and she couldn't help but bend the corners of her lips again.

The face is so thin, fortunately there are only two of them in the house, if there is still a maid by the side, I am afraid that Zhen Xuan will already hide under the quilt at this time, and dare not let people see this face crimson.

If you tease her again at this time, I'm afraid she will not follow.

Xia Yiqing put the bottle back into the drawer, the basin on the shelf was not brought out, he walked over and washed his hands, turned his back and said to Zhen Xuan: "They are all medicinal materials that invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis." Although it doesn't smell good, the effect is still good. Kneaded open. It won't stass for a long time, and it will disperse in a few days. ”

Zhen Xuan answered, moved into the bed, and covered the quilt.

"Although the immortal curie burned the earth fire dragon, it can't withstand the cold, if you eat the cold, it will not be good." Xia Yiqing said as she took off her shoes and went to bed.

Zhen Xuan straightened her mind, didn't think about the scene just now, pointed to the pump at the end of the bed, and said, "I don't know that there is medicine there." ”

Xia Yiqing explained: "When practicing swords, it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bumps, all of which are minor injuries, and if you hire a doctor, you will inevitably alarm your grandmother and mother, so you secretly hide the medicine." I don't dare to touch my things in chess and painting, and I haven't been discovered by anyone after all these years. ”

Zhen Xuan looked at the thousands of workers pulling out the bed, using the best fragrant nan wood, the corridor carving is fine, the size of the railing is the texture of the broken branches and flowers, and the small drawer is also carved with Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum, Zhen Xuan lived for a month, and she has not opened what was collected in the drawer, so she doesn't know the mystery of the road.

After some time, I'll definitely open it and take a look.

Thinking that Xia Yiqing also knelt for a while, Zhen Xuan asked, "The second master didn't get up Qingzi, right?" ”

"Nothing." Motioning for Zhen Xuan to sleep, Xia Yiqing blew the lamp and got out of the tent, "You can take a look tomorrow, if you can't take medicine again." ”

Zhen Xuan's hands twisted the quilt, and her voice was a little soft and shy: "It's good to ask the maids to serve, don't dare to work the second master." ”

Medicating his wife, Xia Yiqing didn't think there was anything inappropriate, seeing that Zhen Xuan was shy, she grabbed her and pecked her lightly on the forehead, and didn't say much.

Even if the husband and wife were alone in the dead of night, Zhen Xuan was reluctant to continue to revolve around this topic, she sorted out her mind and swept away the charm, and said: "In listening to Fengyuan, the fourth uncle said that the third uncle asked the second uncle to reprimand the grandmother, I saw that the second master was thoughtful, but did he think of anything?" ”

"Nothing." Xia Yiqing's words were vague, as if he didn't want to talk about it.

Is it reluctant to mention the matter of the second room, or is it because it is unnecessary to tell yourself about these things?

Zhen Xuan couldn't tell for a while, if it was the former, she could understand one or two, after all, it was not something pleasant; But if it is the latter, Zhen Xuan will feel unsteady.

Leaning towards Xia Yiqing's side, Zhen Xuan plucked up his courage and asked, "I want to know the way." I promised my ancestor to listen to the Buddha's chanting with her in a few days, and I didn't want to be disliked by accidentally saying the wrong thing and provoking it. ”

Is this a roundabout?

Xia Yiqing coughed lightly to cover up a momentary smile, and said, "As long as you don't talk about the second room before the ancestor, how can you say the wrong thing?" ”

Zhen Xuan heard the laughter, glanced at Xia Yiqing, but the night was dark, she couldn't see it even if her eyes widened, she could only be angry, and said to herself: "Second uncle and grandmother are not people who are willing to give up easily, and the second master always has to remind me of something." ”

Xia Yiqing saw that she was so persistent, if she didn't say it, she was afraid that she would not be able to sleep well, so she had to say: "I have heard one or two things outside, but it is too ridiculous, and it is just a few words, and I can't tell the ins and outs, I thought it was a rumor." But today, when I heard my ancestor mention my eldest aunt, I think it is probably a little true. ”

Zhen Xuan saw that Xia Yiqing was willing to say, and she was overjoyed and listened carefully.

Xia Suqing is seventeen years old this year, and she is not young anymore, and because Xia Yiqing is not married, she is not in a hurry. When Zhen Xuan entered the door, Mrs. He naturally cared about Xia Suqing's family affairs.

Xia Suqing is the sister-in-law of the sixth master, but the sixth master is a concubine, and his aunt An made Mrs. He suffer a few losses when she was young, where would Mrs. He give the sixth master and Xia Suqing a good look.

If you don't like it anymore, you have to marry a daughter-in-law for your grandchildren.

In order to suppress the concubine, Mrs. He chose the wife Chen for the sixth master, and she felt angry at the time, but when she got around, she felt that the Chen family couldn't squeeze out a little oil and water, it was a New Year's gift, and she couldn't give anything on the table.

If you want to arrange the big things in Mrs. He's heart, compared to singing against the long house, suppressing the concubine is a trivial matter.

Mrs. Zheng just married her granddaughter-in-law, and there was a holy decree to open the way, how many people in Yongzhou City watched the Pei family's daughters who stepped on the flower hall send dowries one after another through the streets and alleys, it was really beautiful.

Mrs. He has a good face and is envious, but she herself does not have the ability to ask for holy decrees, but she is not willing to drop too much on her granddaughter-in-law's dowry.

The people of Yongzhou have always been generous in marrying girls, even if they are street merchants marrying girls, they have to support their appearance, not to mention merchants and eunuchs.

On the other hand, if you want your daughter-in-law to have a good dowry, you naturally have to give a considerable dowry. She saw the dowry gift given by Xia Yiqing, and when she thought of those things being carried out of the gate of the Xia family, she felt very distressed.

Mrs. He wanted to receive a dowry, but she was reluctant to marry her son's son with a large dowry, so it was inevitable that she would want to use some side brains.

Mrs. He wanted to pick a family business.

The conduct of the girl's family is not her main concern. She wants to pick those older girls, no matter what the reason is, the girls have been at home for a long time, and it is not good to pick and choose when they are older, and the mother's family is generally willing to pay a good dowry in order to marry her out, and they dare not ask for more dowry.

On top of this, if it is still extinct, it is naturally wonderful.

Zhen Xuan was dumbfounded when she heard this, she actually made such a plan!

She knew that Mrs. He was resentful and cautious, and asked Mrs. Zheng to say that she could remember the sesame point for more than ten years, but Zhenxuan didn't expect that Mrs. He could take care of this.

Zhen Xuan muttered: "Where is such a person so easy to find." ”

Xia Yiqing also had a headache when he mentioned these things, he raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows, and then continued: "It's just that it's hard to find, the second uncle and grandmother invited several matchmakers in the city to inquire, so some rumors came out." It's also her luck that there really seems to be such a family, and her daughter is exactly twenty this year. ”

Zhen Xuan pondered for a while, a woman who is not married at the age of twenty is rare in Yongzhou, but it is not uncommon.

In order to take care of her seriously ill mother and support her younger brothers and sisters, she got up early and was greedy for darkness, so she delayed herself, and she wanted to marry her hard-working and capable. Li Zheng saw that their life was not easy, and then when the emperor visited Yongzhou, he asked the official family for her the word "filial piety", and won a reward, and the queen mentioned when she saw the wife that she wanted to be filial piety.

The royal family attaches great importance to it, and the wives dare not take it lightly, and in the backyard, it is rare to tell the story of the peasant girl.

However, such a peasant girl is not a little short of the rich dowry in Mrs. He's mind.

However, it has been less than half a year since that reward, whether it is the official eunuch family or the small merchant family, no one dares to despise those unmarried women who have taken up loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness but are old at this time, so if the old lady He is a candidate with good character, just because the girl's family is older, the old ancestor should not be so angry that he will blow people out, but I am afraid that there are other reasons.

Zhen Xuan's inference, Xia Yiqing quite agreed: "I don't know about other situations, I'll ask someone to inquire tomorrow, and I'll tell my grandmother and mother when I figure it out." ”

If Mrs. Zheng knew that Mrs. He had this kind of idea, I don't know what kind of mood she would have. (To be continued......)
