Gu Jingshu sighed innocently, "It was the old man's whim to barbecue meat in the garden, and he drank two more glasses in the middle and fell asleep." The daughter-in-law thought that such an important thing as opening her face should naturally be more exquisite, and she couldn't let the old man sleep drunk in her aunt's room for a night on the first night, wouldn't that wronged her aunt and live up to the old lady's kindness? ”

"Oily Tone!" The old lady was noncommittal to Gu Jingshu's words, and only said, "You make good arrangements tonight, you can't make any more mistakes, otherwise you ......"

Threatening implications.

Gu Jingshu smiled slightly, "Mother rest assured, the daughter-in-law has been arranged." ”

Qiao Lixi on the side shook her head.

The old witch's casual handling of the East Courtyard has reached the level of unscrupulousness, and there is no ease at all.

Qiao Xingbang is the eldest son of the old witch, right?

He was born to an old witch, right?

Without Qiao Xingbang, how could the old witch compete for favor with the one in the Southern Courtyard?

Anyway, Qiao Xingbang also helped the old witch to fix her pet, right?

Such an important son, the old witch is so ruthless, is she not afraid that she will hurt her foundation in the end?

With the support of Mrs. Qiao, Aunt Bai returned to the side courtyard with high spirits, but before she had time to raise her eyebrows, she found something that made her very depressed - her little day was coming.

Angrily threw the replaced filth and things to the rough maid, and Aunt Bai took the brown sugar water and drank it all.

Qiao Yixi was the first to get the news and looked at Astragalus in disbelief, "Are you sure?" ”

"Yes, miss, the slave maid can see very clearly, the maid in charge of laundry is cleaning Aunt Bai's filthy and object-stained dress." For the things that the master explained, Astragalus also worked hard, and he didn't care about bad luck or not, and looked at the clothes that Aunt Bai had changed.

Qiao Lixi's side also breathed a sigh of relief.

In ancient times, she was very evasive about this kind of thing, and she was very particular, no matter how Aunt Bai wanted to climb into Qiao Xingbang's bed, she had to stay in peace these days, although it was only a few days, it could be regarded as alleviating the current crisis.

However, she also knew that this was not an option, but at the moment she was indeed very passive.

Gu Jingshu's side, after learning about Aunt Bai's situation, in order to appease Aunt Bai's impetuous heart, after informing Qiao Xingbang, she finally gave Aunt Bai a name for the side courtyard where she was located, which was still named after Aunt Bai's boudoir, which was called "Peony Medicine House". Regardless of whether there is a new aunt in Dongyuan in the future, Aunt Bai is the head of this group of juniors, and everyone has to live in the "Peony Medicine House".

After a few follow-up visits, the lump on the back of the head gradually recovered, although it did not completely disperse, it was much smaller than before, and Gu Jingshu and Qiao Xingbang's hanging hearts were completely let go.

Today is the day when Qiao Xingbang made an appointment with the Ma family father and son for dinner.

Last time, because of Qiao Lixi's accident in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, the dinner was postponed. During this time, Qiao Lixi recovered well, and the weather was very good, so she simply asked the Ma family to eat at the "Yipinlou".

"Yipinlou" is the most high-end restaurant in Jincheng, it is said that it is opened from the capital, except for a few special dishes of the capital, mostly Sichuan cuisine.

This is also the shrewd place of "Yipinlou".

Although the cuisine of the capital is a rare thing in Jincheng, it is okay to taste it occasionally, and the local tyrants of Jincheng may not necessarily buy the dishes that focus on the taste of the capital, after all, the taste they are used to is the taste they like.

As soon as Ma Yunqing entered the private room, he said to Qiao Yixi with a smile: "Qiaoqiao, the injury on your head is better?" ”

Qiao Lixi's sluggish little face barely squeezed out a smile, and said uncomfortably: "Thank you Uncle Ma for your concern, Qiao Qiao is fine." ”

Ma Yun Qing Dynasty Qiao Xingbang looked, "What did Imperial Doctor Wen say?" ”

The Marquis of Zhenyuan's Mansion asked the imperial doctor to give Qiao Yixi a follow-up, and the Ma family also knew.

"Qiaoqiao is recovering well, otherwise she wouldn't have been brought out today, Imperial Doctor Wen said, walking around more will also help her recovery, read less books, use less eyes, and use less brain during this time. It will be good if the blood is gone, and it is estimated that it will recover this month. ”

"That's good," Ma Yunqing also breathed a sigh of relief, "Such a young child, suffering such a big crime, it's uncomfortable to think about it." Fortunately, I see that Qiaoqiao's complexion is good today, better than in previous years. ”

Qiao Xingbang nodded with satisfaction, "Qiao Qiao's situation this year is good, I hope to have a good winter." ”

It stands to reason that these should be topics between women, and men should talk about everything when they are together, and no matter how bad they are, they should talk about business. But Ma Yunqing knew that Qiao Xingbang doted on Qiao Yixi, a middle-aged woman, and the only heir, who was more precious than his eyeballs, so he said a few more words as soon as they met.

Over there, Qiao Yixi remembered the words that Gu Jingshu explained before she went out, and walked to Ma Dongshu in a daze, and blessed herself in a proper manner, "Qiao Qiao was injured this time, thank you Young Master Ma for helping, it was Qiao Qiao who was naughty, because he wanted to make osmanthus cakes for his grandmother, he went up the tree without permission, and Qiao Qiao was ignorant." ”

"Miss Qiao is filial, the old lady must be very pleased, no one wants to have an accident, as long as the person is fine." Ma Dongshu said very understandingly, "Miss Qiao has always been filial to the old lady, and this time it is also due to filial piety, but it is such a dangerous thing, don't do it next time." ”

"Young Master Ma is right." Qiao Yixi replied.

"Jing Shu, I see that your body and bones seem to be much better." Over there, the housewives of the two families also chatted.

Gu Jingshu said with relief: "This year's autumn is not as cold as in previous years, and Qiaoqiao's body and bones are not bad, but I look at the situation in the past few days, and I estimate that it is going to cool down." ”

"Yes, the weather was good a few days ago, but today it has changed its face, you and Qiaoqiao have to prepare in advance, if there is anything to help, just let me know."

"That's a lot of trouble." Gu Jingshu said politely.

"What do we have to do with it, and talk about this," Teng Jingyue was also refreshing, "You and Qiaoqiao have a hard time going out, we will have to have a good look later." ”

Gu Jingshu also looked yearning, "I'm okay, Qiaoqiao is indeed difficult to come out once." ”

"Xue Tao rarely goes out during this time, and the backyard is all under pressure, right?"

Qiao Yixi has been following the fourth room before, and occasionally Xue Tao will bring her and Qiao Jinwen when she goes out to socialize, so it is not surprising that Teng Jingyue mentioned Xue Tao. It's just that after seeing with her own eyes how the people of the Qiao family excluded their daughter, Gu Jingshu's gratitude to Xue Tao was gone, and Qiao Qiao's current temperament was most likely deliberately cultivated by Xue Tao.

Gu Jingshu doesn't blame others, Qiaoqiao is her daughter, she didn't fulfill her responsibility to take care of and cultivate Qiaoqiao, what qualifications do you have to blame others?

Therefore, the most important thing for her now, and the only thing to do, is to slowly correct Qiaoqiao's temperament and temper, so that she doesn't want her to be exquisite, at least she can't be submissive.

To please the elders or something, Gu Jingshu doesn't force it, all she cares about is whether her daughter will suffer.

The businessmen are not so particular, Qiao Xingbang's family of three and Ma Yunqing's family of four eat around a table in the private room, but they are also happy.

After the meal, Qiao Xingbang and Ma Yunqing went to the teahouse to drink tea, and Qiao Yixi followed Gu Jingshu and Teng Jingyue to go shopping.

This is the first time Qiao Lixi has gone shopping seriously, it is false to say that she is not curious, no matter what identity she lives here, it is important to understand the situation.

As a standard rich third generation, the shops Qiao Lixi visited were among the best light luxury stores in Jincheng, and the things she chose were the most expensive.

Jewelry or something, Qiao Lixi is young and is not in a hurry to buy it, so Gu Jingshu took her to visit the cloth village.

The Qiao family itself is in the silk business, the best fabric is in the Qiao family, the embroidery girl on the embroidery village is also an embroidery master, and several Shu embroidery masters are still the top embroidery masters in the Sichuan and Shu regions, so Qiao Yixi has never lacked these. However, the style of clothes from the capital is very popular, after all, in this period, the fashion vane is still based on the capital, so after looking through the new album, Gu Jingshu chose two sets of new clothes for Qiao Yixi.

"What else would Jojo want to buy? Aunt Teng will send you. In the silver jewelry shop, Teng Jingyue said to Qiao Lixi.

"Thank you, Aunt Teng, Qiaoqiao doesn't want anything." Qiao Lixi had a slumped face.

Whether it is before or after wearing, she has little interest in these clothes and jewelry.

Back in the east courtyard, the little maid had just served tea, and someone came to say that Aunt Bai was here.

Gu Jingshu sneered and looked at Qiao Xingbang.

Qiao Xingbang's face was also full of impatience, "I'll go to the study." ”

Qiao Yixi shook her head.

This tactful way of avoiding it is useless for Aunt Bai, who is not drilled everywhere.

The more they avoided, the more Aunt Bai pressed step by step, and there was always a chance for her to climb the bed successfully.

I think Qiao Xingbang also thought of this, and he didn't move after speaking, but nodded at the maid.

"Jojo, are you tired? My mother asked people to boil medicinal chicken soup, you go back to the yard to drink some. ”

Qiao Yixi knew that Gu Jingshu didn't want her to watch those pickled things.

But how could she just walk away and leave her parents here?

smiled obediently, "Mother, Qiaoqiao is here to accompany you and do nothing." You've got to give Jojo a chance to learn. ”

In the future, maybe she will encounter such a thing?

After a while, Aunt Bai followed the little maid in.

Qiao Lixi's eyes widened suddenly.

Although the end of autumn in Jincheng is still warm, it is different from summer, and in modern terms, although it is not enough to wear autumn pants, it is not the season to appear in a layer of transparent tulle.

Qiao Yixi gave Aunt Bai goosebumps.

"Slaves and maids greet the master, the lady, and the young lady." With a snorting voice, Qiao Yixi coldly struck a spirit.

The voice was shaking, probably cold.

This kind of skill of pinching her voice and speaking can be regarded as Aunt Bai's housekeeping skills.

"Get up." Gu Jingshu did not embarrass Aunt Bai.

Aunt Bai got up slowly, her eyes tactfully turned around Qiao Xingbang, and she wanted to say goodbye, full of affection.

Qiao Yixi shook her head.

Sure enough, he followed the old witch, and the means of competing for favor were like this.
