"Let people in."

After a while, a middle-aged woman who looked like a proprietress followed Yingrong in.

This spring dress was specially made when Qiao Ningdai was favored, Qiao Ningdai, who has an inexplicable obsession with Zhenghong, can't look down on this spring dress, but the clothes symbolize her status in the backyard, and she is the only one in the entire prince's mansion who is qualified to make it.

Therefore, no matter what the color of the clothes is or what the style is, Qiao Ningdai is satisfied.

Even if she is not favored now, she is in the backyard of the Prince's Mansion and has an unrivaled status.

Let Cai Lu take the proprietress to the account room to receive the silver, and Qiao Ningdai took a sip of the teacup.

"Aunt Dai." Ying Rong hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke.

Qiao Ningdai raised her eyebrows and looked at Ying Rong, without meaning to speak.

Ying Rong hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Is Aunt Dai still satisfied with the sincerity and loyalty of the slave maid?" ”

Qiao Ningdai immediately smiled.

Ying Rong nervously watched Qiao Ningdai's every move.

"I saw your sincerity and loyalty, but the matter is not over yet, come back to me when you are safe and sound."

This matter, the second prince will investigate to the end, who knows what will be found out in the end, she is not stupid enough to receive Yingrong under her command at this time.

"Aunt Dai, please rest assured," Ying Rong said with a solemn expression: "The slave will definitely let you see the usefulness of the slave and the maid, and the slave and the maid are definitely people you can trust and use." ”

Once again, Ying Rong left the "Begonia Courtyard" in a hurry.

It was a very risky move to come to Aunt Dai this time, but she wanted to know Aunt Dai's attitude.

Now, on the surface, Aunt Dai has fallen out of favor, but as long as Aunt Dai still has the "Shu Embroidery Building" in her hand, His Royal Highness's grace to Aunt Dai will definitely not be less.

The affairs in the second prince's mansion are unknown to outsiders.

After Qiao Yixi finished writing the last word, she went through the whole text from beginning to end, and after confirming that there were no typos, she folded it and put it in the envelope.

Because of her correspondence with Gu Jinzhen, she can now write fluently with a brush, as for the font......

Hehe, it's good that she can barely write well, don't ask too much of her.

"Miss." As soon as Angelica entered the door, he looked at the bookcase with burning eyes.

The corners of Qiao Lixi's eyes twitched.

Ever since Angelica found out that there was a group of people outside the mansion who were very interested in her correspondence with Gu Jinzhen, Angelica has been ready to move.

During this period, she asked Angelica to send the letter a few times, and everything went smoothly on the way, as for after it was sent to the barracks, it would be hehehe.

This time it was time for Qiao Yixi to close the net, and for this reason, she did enough work, and even took the initiative to visit Qiao Jinwen in the West Courtyard, and the two sisters chatted a few words.

Since Qiao Jinwen gave birth to a stillborn, she was beaten into the cold palace by Gu Jinxuan.

All the hopes of the second room are in her, from the time she entered the door to the time she gave birth, she enjoyed the best resources of the Hou Mansion, but she gave birth to a stillborn baby, she was still a nondescript monster, and her anger could no longer properly describe Feng's emotions.

Anyway, Qiao Jinwen is a person from the second room, so let the second room deal with it herself.

Qiao Jinwen can no longer threaten Chang Yulian, even the "Jinxiu" she relies on is now half-dead, Chang Yulian has never taken her in her eyes, and now she still treats her as non-existent.

There will be no less quota that should be sent to the West Courtyard every month, what Qiao Jinwen wants to eat, she will still be satisfied, Chang Yulian's attitude of not caring at all is the contempt for Qiao Jinwen in her bones, so contemptuous that she can't "see" this person at all.

The treatment remains the same, the status remains the same, and the attitude towards her remains the same.

seems to be a good thing, but in fact, it also indirectly shows that from beginning to end, Chang Yulian never cared.

What's the concern?

One is the daughter of Shangshufu, and the other is the daughter of a merchant.

One is the wife of Ming Media who is marrying, and the other is a concubine who came in from the small door.

Not to mention that now that the second room has broken off the heir, even when Qiao Jinwen was pregnant, Chang Yulian was never worried.

Since she is the only heir of the second room, she naturally wants to hang it in her name.

How to raise it, it's not up to her to have the final say.

Qiao Jinwen is now just an idler in the second room, and there is no shortage of this bowl of rice in the second room.

Qiao Lixi took the initiative to find Qiao Jinwen, Qiao Jinwen was surprised, but more on guard, after all, the relationship between the two was there.

Qiao Jinwen thought that Qiao Lixi was here to show off, but she didn't want Qiao Lixi to have leisure and leisure to have a family affair with her.

Although I don't know where Qiao Lixi's sudden overtures came from, Qiao Jinwen is used to acting, and the two chatted wittily, going back and forth, and they were really asked something by Qiao Jinwen "accidentally".

It's just that Qiao Jinwen hasn't figured out how to use the information she gets, and as soon as Qiao Lixi walks on her front foot, a rough maid in her yard quietly arrives in the east courtyard.

Therefore, Chang Yulian not only knew that Qiao Lixi was going to ask Angelica to send a letter to the barracks today, but also vaguely knew that the matter discussed between Qiao Lixi and Gu Jinzhen seemed to be related to the racecourse!

There are a total of several horse merchants in the imperial dynasty, and how many horse farms there are, no one knows except the emperor, but everyone, whether it is the court or the common people in the market, it is rumored that the Marquis of Zhenyuan has his own horse farm, and the war horses provided can only be owned by the Shen family army in the real sense and the cronies around him.

Don't underestimate the horse farm in the hands of the Marquis of Zhenyuan.

War horses are different from ordinary foot horses, which can be clearly seen from the price.

War horses are trained even more rigorously and harshly than soldiers, and on the battlefield, war horses are not only sharp weapons, but also partners and comrades-in-arms.

The difference between a god assist and a pig teammate is sometimes related to a human life.

Instead of looking for horse dealers and horse farms who don't know where they are, the horse farm in the hands of the Marquis of Zhenyuan is the most readily available!

Chang Yulian did not forget that when Shu Dao was just repaired at the beginning of last year, the third prince personally rushed to Shuzhou.

If she can help the third prince find out the news of the racecourse, then her position in the heart of the third prince is more stable, and the position of the concubine is not impossible!

Therefore, as soon as Chang Yulian got the news, she asked the maids around her to inform the people in the shadows outside the house that they must keep an eye on Angelica!

Chang Yulian is not stupid, she is suspicious of Qiao Jinwen's ability to easily get Qiao Yixi's news, but this does not affect her arrangement, it just makes people stare at it, and it doesn't take much time.

Angelica sent the letter to the barracks on the front foot, and on the back foot, various forces approached the barracks under various pretexts, and even the materials sent to the front line were more, which were sent by the military families after Qiao Lixi left.

It's just that there are a lot of military dependents who send things and letters today, and the people in charge of registration and inventory in front are obviously too busy, so who cares if anyone is fishing in troubled waters.

On the third day after Angelica delivered the letter to the barracks, Qiao Lixi took the initiative to go to the main courtyard.

"How come Qiao Qiao is free today and can get out of the 'Wutong Pavilion'?" As Qiao Lixi's serious mother-in-law, Feng's yin and yang weird voice is normal, and it should be like this between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Qiao Yixi said with a smile: "I've been busy with all kinds of things, and I've been delayed until now, so I'm just okay today, so I'll come to Mrs. ”

"Oh?" Feng raised his eyebrows, waiting for Qiao Yixi's words.

Sure enough, Qiao Lixi said again: "I want to go out in two days, and I came here today to report to my wife." ”

Feng frowned angrily.

Reporting?

Heh, it's all up to you, what else is there to report?

It's just a matter of informing her, and she doesn't allow it to be the same.

Feng felt that his majesty as a mother-in-law had been seriously provoked, and his gaze at Qiao Yixi became stern, "Qiao Qiao, you are a person from the Changfang, you and Brother Zhen have always thought that the Changfang is a special existence in the Hou Mansion, and they don't treat me and the Hou Ye as elders, and they never take our words to heart. I don't have any other requirements, as long as we are a family with Hemeimei outside, close the door, how do you want to toss the 'Wutong Pavilion', I will go with you with one eye closed, but now you want to go out without saying a word? Qiaoqiao, how do we say that the Hou Mansion is also a famous family in the noble circle, you can ignore the rules of the Hou Mansion, but you can't ignore the rules of the circle, outside, you represent the Hou Mansion! ”

"So, ma'am, what do you want to say?" Qiao Lixi asked directly.

Feng said coldly: "Your husband is not here, you are a woman who goes far away, you know better than me how it will be spread outside." ”

"Madame misunderstood, I just went back to my parents' house."

Feng immediately smiled, "Mother's family? If Mrs. Ben remembers correctly, your parents are both in the capital, where are you going back? ”

"Jincheng."

Feng Shi was stunned for a moment, silently calculating something in his heart, "Jincheng? Are you going back to Jincheng alone? ”

"Madame, don't worry, I'm not going back alone this time, my father and mother will go back together, about two months."

The Feng family glanced at Qiao Lixi faintly, "Since I am accompanied by my in-laws, Mrs. Ben is also relieved." You have arranged everything, and what Mrs. Ben said will not help, I just hope that you can remember your identity as the 'chief daughter-in-law of the Dingguo Marquis' outside, know what to do and what not to do, and know your duty even more. Mrs. Ben's ugly words are said first, if you do something that damages the face of the Hou Mansion, I, as a mother-in-law, will not scruple anything! ”

"Madame, don't worry, as long as it's not framed by someone with a heart, I'm still pretty well-behaved!"

On the third day, Qiao Lixi sat in a carriage and arrived at the city gate.

Qiao Xingbang and Gu Jingshu's carriage was already waiting there, and the people who went back this time were the elders of the Gu family.

The elders came a few years ago and have stayed until now, this time Qiao Lixi returned to Jincheng, just when everyone was together, they took care of each other on the road.

Qiao Yixi got out of the carriage, greeted the elders one by one, and pinched Qiao Pingyi's nose before returning to the carriage and leaving the city gate.

There seems to be a lot of wagons out of town today.

While the soldiers guarding the door were checking the formalities, Qiao Lixi glanced back, and there were five carriages, large and small, all of which were carriages of ordinary people, and they were probably going to the suburbs to play.

Out of the city gate, the group was very smooth, although the speed of the carriage was slow, but it was comfortable to stop and walk for more than ten days.

When they arrived at Chaotianmen, they sent the elders of the Gu family back first, Qiao Lixi and his party did not stop, and when they arrived at the dock, they changed to the waterway.
