Chapter 313 Serve well
"What does my grandfather mean by wanting to enter the capital?"
"The circle in the capital is either rich or expensive, your grandfather's temperament is not suitable, besides, the nearest wharf to the capital is the owner, we have the intention to grab it when we first arrive, and we can't grab it."
Qiao Yixi understands this.
You think the dock is just a small dock?
No, the owner on the surface of the dock may be nothing, but the master behind it may not be, who knows which official in the capital will be the private property of the capital, or which royal relatives will cover it.
Moreover, the Xungui circle is the most xenophobic, and Old Man Gu doesn't bother to please others.
In terms of business, Mrs. Gu didn't say it explicitly, Qiao Lixi knew that she didn't want to worry about it, the family now divided their own labor, just do their part.
Subsequently, Gu Jingshu talked about the New Year, Qiao Lixi mentioned the New Year together, Mrs. Gu was naturally willing, not to mention the excitement of the people, and the two children walked around more, which was good for the two children.
After lunch, Qiao Lixi and Gu Jinzhen rested for a while and prepared to go to the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion.
I don't know what the old emperor did, after the birthday of the queen mother, he did not order the Marquis of Zhenyuan and others to return to southern Xinjiang, and the people who were transferred to change the guard did not have the intention of being transferred.
Qiao Lixi quietly asked Gu Jinzhen before, and Gu Jinzhen said that the old emperor wanted to die, and he couldn't help it.
However, Qiao Yixi understood that the old emperor was tempting.
Test the attitude of the Marquis of Zhenyuan.
If the Marquis of Zhenyuan took the pretext of the safety of southern Xinjiang and took the initiative to ask the Marquis of Zhenyuan to guard the border pass, he would naturally nod, but he was even more wary of the Marquis of Zhenyuan.
If the Marquis of Zhenyuan was wise enough to protect himself and never mentioned the matter of the border pass, he would be happy to let his people stay in southern Xinjiang, but he would not relax his guard against the Marquis of Zhenyuan.
Therefore, no matter what attitude Marquis Zhenyuan had, he couldn't change the old emperor's mind.
Although the troops transferred over this time were the people of the old emperor, they also passed in the name of the Shen family, so the Marquis of Zhenyuan was indifferent.
As soon as Mrs. Lu saw Qiao Lixi, she immediately beckoned her over, and looked at it carefully, "Married, it's really different." ”
Qiao Lixi was embarrassed.
She and Gu Jinzhen haven't had a round house yet, where did the old lady see that she was different.
Shen Huaihao also learned from Mrs. Lu's appearance, and looked at Qiao Yixi carefully, "It seems that I haven't been bullied." ”
"My Qiaoqiao is so smart, how can he be bullied?" Gu Jinzhen asked with a dark face.
Qiao Lixi was tired of being in the arms of Mrs. Lu.
She had already seen that the uncle and nephew would start fighting if they didn't say a word, and she didn't know if the two of them were like this on the battlefield.
As if she had guessed Qiao Lixi's thoughts, Mrs. Lu patted her on the shoulder and comforted: "Ignore them, one of your uncle's bad tastes is to tease Brother Zhen'er, who called this kid look like a young man?" ”
Several men went to the front study, and Mrs. Lu and Qiao Lixi stayed in the flower hall to talk.
"Over there in the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, if there is anything you don't want to do, you don't want to agree, but you have to do it because of your identity, and if you have to agree, you don't have to agree, you don't have to do it, just push it on me." Old Madam Lu said proudly.
"Thank you grandmother," Qiao Yixi said with a smile, "The Feng family will not tear her face with me now, she is a person who loves face so much, and she will not take the initiative to embarrass me." ”
Old Madam Lu was noncommittal about this.
"Grandmother, don't worry, I can still handle it on the Feng family's side, even if she is strong, there is no one around me, and I will not suffer."
Seeing that Mrs. Lu was still not at ease, Qiao Yixi comforted again: "Grandmother, what do you think, the Feng family is not stupid, I have only been in the door for a few days, and there are so many pairs of eyes outside, and it will be a month or two before she wants to do something to me." The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and no one will feel uncomfortable at the end of the year. ”
"That's right, but the situation is changing, the Feng family is a person who knows how to drill camps, the situation is in her favor, and she won't choose a day."
Qiao Yixi nodded instructively, "Grandmother, don't worry, I will be careful." ”
didn't want Mrs. Lu to worry about it, so Qiao Lixi immediately diverted the topic.
The two left from the Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion and returned to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, it was already after dinner, so they got out of the carriage and waited for the little maid in the gatehouse to invite Qiao Yixi to the main courtyard.
Gu Jinzhen was naturally unhappy, with a dark face, he pulled Qiao Lixi towards the "Wutong Pavilion".
The little maid was so anxious that she trotted behind, wanting to stop but not daring to stop it.
"What are you doing here?"
Seeing Qiao Yixi's voice with gasp, Gu Jinzhen slowed down.
"Go home and sleep."
Qiao Yixi shook her head amusedly, trying to stop. Driven by her, Gu Jinzhen also stood in place.
The little girl who was chasing after her didn't dare to get too close, and stood three meters away from the two of them, looking anxious.
She wanted to go up and say a few words, but when she thought of Gu Jinzhen's fierce combat power, she suddenly wilted.
Uncle doesn't have any pity here, don't beat the rules of women, according to the degree of the uncle's love for the grandmother, I'm afraid that people in other rooms are not allowed to get close to the grandmother.
Thinking of this, the little girl complained in her heart.
They were all errands around Mrs., why was her luck so bad to get this errand.
Over there, Qiao Lixi comforted the angry Gu Jinzhen, "What did we say before?" ”
"But ......"
"It's just that I used to sit down, and there would be no shortage of meat, and I pondered that I wanted to ask about my two aunts. I promised to let them in today. ”
As soon as she mentioned this, Gu Jinzhen was depressed, but she didn't dare to attack in front of Qiao Yixi, so she had to mumble a few words aggrievedly.
Qiao Yixi smiled angrily, stretched out his hand, and pinched his face twice.
It's a pity, there is no meat on the face, it is too tight, and it feels bad.
Slandering in her heart, Qiao Lixi said in a low voice: "Don't let them in, how can we implement our plan, I know I have wronged you, let's say, what compensation do you want?" ”
"Any compensation?" Gu Jinzhen's eyes lit up.
Qiao Yixi's back was cold, and it felt very bad to be targeted.
"Jojo?" Gu Jinzhen once again confirmed Qiao Lixi's words.
Qiao Lixi's heart was crossed, and she gritted her teeth and nodded.
Gu Jinzhen squinted his eyes and smiled like an old fox, "Then you hurry up now and come back to compensate me!" ”
Huh?
Gu Jinzhen's face changed too quickly, and Qiao Lixi didn't react for a while.
In a daze, he was taken by Gu Jinzhen to the gate of the main courtyard.
The little maid who followed behind was nervous.
Mrs. only said to bring Qiao Lixi over, but did not say to let the uncle over.
Mrs. doesn't even have a grasp of Qiao Lixi now, plus the uncle's words......
The little maid shuddered, for fear that the uncle would be mad, and no one would be able to please him at that time.
"Be careful yourself, if there's anything wrong, do it directly, don't grieve yourself." Gu Jinzhen instructed.
Qiao Yixi patted the back of his hand comfortingly, and entered the door with astragalus and angelica.
There is not only the Feng family in the house, but also Chang Yulian in the second room.
Qiao Lixi secretly thought: The Feng family will take advantage of the right time and place.
If it was just the two of them, when she agreed to Feng's request aggrievedly, outsiders would only say that Feng had persecuted her with strong means, but if there was one more person present, outsiders would think that this was a decision made by Feng and Qiao Yixi after "discussing".
"Madame, second grandmother." Qiao Lixi was still polite and detached.
"Sister-in-law is back." Qiao Lixi's politeness did not affect Chang Yulian's enthusiasm at all, and she took the initiative to say hello.
"Are the in-laws all right?" Feng asked symbolically.
Qiao Yixi nodded, "Mrs. Lao remembers, it's all very good." ”
"That's good, go back and see if you have time, our Hou Mansion doesn't have so many rules, it's your mother's house, it's your parents, and you still have to do your filial piety."
"Madame is right." Qiao Yixi said gently.
"I called you so late to ask you what you said a few days ago." Feng said very tactfully.
Qiao Yixi replied even more politely, "Since I have promised Mrs., I will naturally do what I say, and Mrs. will let them go directly to the 'Wutong Pavilion'." ”
Feng and Chang Yulian were both stunned.
Neither of them expected Qiao Yixi to be so good at talking, which made the rhetoric they had prepared completely useless.
"What, no?" Seeing the strange expression of the Feng family, Qiao Lixi asked deliberately.
"No," Feng said hurriedly, "I've wronged you." ”
Qiao Lixi smiled but did not answer.
If you really feel wronged by her, you won't get two aunts to respond to her.
The Feng family has always done everything well, and then comforted Qiao Yixi a few words, "Mother knows that you have a heart in your heart, but Mother is also for you and Brother Zhen." ”
Yo, for my son's aunt, or for her daughter-in-law?
"You are not a person in the circle, so I don't know, a noble family like us will arrange a room for my brother early and teach my brother these things. Brother Zhen has been at the border, so I haven't been busy arranging. When he came back this time, I didn't plan to arrange people around him, thinking that Brother Zhen had a big idea, and I was a stepmother who was not easy to meddle in. But Brother Zhen is old, since he wants to get married, firstly, because he has a heart for you, and secondly, he also has that need. You are still young and can't serve your brother, but your brother is strong-blooded, he is a man, and he can't let him hold back, so my mother took two aunts for my brother. The deed of sale is in your hands, and you don't have to worry, it's just two tools to warm the bed, and you're still afraid that you won't be able to hold it? You don't have to worry about solving the problem with a bowl of avoidance soup. ”
"Madame is right."
Feng wanted to say something more, but looking at Qiao Lixi's docile appearance, she was inexplicably upset.
It was as if she had saved up enough energy to fight Qiao Lixi, and the other party came back with a few words, but she couldn't.
"Okay, it's not too early, you've been busy outside for a day, go back early, and arrange a good service for my brother tonight."
Oh, can't wait for someone to warm up the bed?
When Feng said this, he just wanted to answer her.
Women, no one wants their man to be shared by others, even if it is just a concubine and a room, even if they have their deed of sale in their hands!
