At night, a dingdong piano sound woke Li Yanqing from his sleep, he put on his clothes and walked out of the room, Sisi has a habit of sleeping alone, she doesn't sleep very well, she needs absolute silence to fall asleep, she and two personal maids live in the east wing of the small courtyard, Li Yanqing sleeps in the west wing, next door is his study, and the bedroom is connected by a small door.

Behind the courtyard is a bamboo forest, through the forest stone path is the pond, here built a pavilion, Li Yanqing named it Tingqin Xiaozhu, at this time, the sound of the piano came from the pavilion.

Li Yanqing stood on the edge of the forest and looked at the pavilion more than ten steps away, only to see Sisi wearing a snow-white long dress, sitting on the soft mat and playing the piano with all his attention, next to a burner of incense, green smoke curling, the breeze caressed, so that her hair draped over her shoulders rose slightly, and a bright crescent moon floated in the blue sky like a sea, and the clear light was sprinkled on the water and trees, making Sisi like a fairy who had just come down from the Moon Palace, it was so soft and elegant, so fairy and jade.

At the end of the piano sound, Sisi said to the maid next to her, and the maid next to her stepped forward to hold the piano and went back to the room first, Sisi got up and said apologetically: "I disturbed my husband's sleep." ”

Li Yanqing stepped forward and smiled slightly, "The crescent moon is like a beautiful woman, and she is colored at the beginning of the sea." Juanjuan went to the lake, rippling and shaking the sky. The night is cool, and the water is quiet and the piano is heard..... Sisi plays the piano at night, is she homesick? ”

Sisi stepped forward and smiled, "I just came to the new house, I need to get used to it slowly, I can't sleep for a while tonight, so I get up and play the piano, but I don't feel homesick." ”

Li Yanqing pulled Sisi to sit down on the soft seat, gently hugged her fragrant shoulder and asked, "You never told me if there are any relatives in your hometown?" ”

Sisi pondered and said: "My parents have passed away a long time ago, but I do have a brother, and when I saw Qing'er today, I suddenly thought of my brother." ”

"Have you been looking for it?"

"How could I not have looked for it, a few years ago, I asked someone to look for it, but I can't find it, and I don't know if it was taken away by the Tanguts, or if it is dead, the village where I used to live has been destroyed in the war, including the black-hearted people who sold me into Lefang also died under the knife of the Tanguts, and the Xixia thought he was useless, so he killed him with a knife, which can be regarded as his retribution."

Speaking of this, Sisi gently snuggled in her husband's arms and said with a smile: "Husband, let's talk about the Cao family!"

"The Cao family?"

Li Yanqing smiled and shook his head, "The Cao family gives me the feeling that it is big, our small mansion is only equivalent to a small courtyard for them, to be honest, I walk in it, and sometimes I feel very small." ”

Sisi smiled lightly: "What the husband sees is history, it is the accumulation of more than 100 years and generations of the Cao family, there are few children of the Cao family who can catch up with the husband, I also know that the Cao family is very rich, thirty years ago, Cao Ping spent 30,000 taels of silver overnight in the alum building, and still holds the highest record in the alum building, but what can it do, can it impress me Master Li?" Don't! Only my husband can move me and make me willing to abandon all fame and fortune to follow. ”

Li Yanqing sighed: "Sisi's debt, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay it back for the rest of my life." ”

"Then hold me like this for the rest of your life, and one day when I am old and decrepit, you are not allowed to abandon me!"

Li Yanqing raised his hand and said, "I, Li Yanqing, swear ......"

Sisi stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, "Swear with my heart, don't say it, I only believe in unforgettable, not flamboyant." ”

Li Yanqing nodded silently, "You're right, you vowed to say it to yourself, not the other party." ”

Sisi pursed her lips again and smiled: "Let's continue to talk about Cao Mansion, did the old man of the Cao family propose to you today?" ”

Li Yanqing looked at her a little surprised, "How do you know?" ”

"What does the husband mean, proposing?"

"He just hinted and asked me if I was thinking about starting a family. I told him that I didn't want to start a family in order to start a family, but I was actually implicitly blocking what he wanted to say. ”

Sisi sighed lowly, "Although my husband is favored by me, I can't replace my wife after all, I still hope that my husband can marry a wife as soon as possible, marry a woman who is gentle and virtuous, and can respect and be compatible with me, to be honest, I'm really afraid of a entering the house." ”

Li Yanqing smiled slightly: "I'm also afraid of a, so I will definitely marry a woman that Sisi likes, if Sisi doesn't like it, then no matter how beautiful this woman is, I will never consider it." ”

"The husband is affectionate, and Sisi understands it."

Sisi originally wanted to mention Cao Yun's matter, but after thinking about it, she also felt that it was better to go with the flow, just like her husband said, she can't start a family in order to start a family.

"Tomorrow is my father's death day, I want to take Xiao Qing'er to Fayun Temple to offer incense, and by the way, let her worship her father."

Li Yanqing nodded, "Tomorrow I will let Baoyanzhai's ox cart come over, you will go out shopping in the car, wear a hat, I believe that others will not recognize you, in a few days it will be Chongyang, the court will have a day off, I will just take you out of the city to go to the autumn." ”

Sisi was happy in her heart, she was really bored at home, and she wanted to go out for a walk for a long time.

........

Before dawn the next day, Li Yanqing went out to the court, and when he left, he asked Yang Guang to go to Baoyanzhai to borrow an ox cart, and asked him and Zhang Hu to escort the ox cart to go shopping.

Today I want to go to the temple next door to worship my father, Hu Qing'er also got up early, Sisi put on a hat for her, there are two kinds of hats, one is pagoda-shaped, the brim is narrower, the whole veil is dragged on the shoulder, and the parts above the shoulder are covered tightly, which is suitable for older women to wear.

And most young women like to wear a hat, a hat-like wide brim, with a light yarn on the edge, which will float on the face, loose and beautiful, and does not affect breathing, and will also give people a hazy beauty.

Sisi and Qing'er are of course wearing a veil, and their veil is slightly longer, if you don't lift it by hand, you basically can't see your face.

The magpie took a hat and muttered, "I don't have to wear this thing!" ”

Sisi smiled: "No one forced you to wear it, and besides, you don't need to wear it." ”

At this time, Qing'er remembered something and smiled: "Uncle Lu Shi has a righteous son named Yan Qing, this kid is good at disguise art, very powerful, I learned a little from him....."

Qing'er didn't finish speaking, and the magpie clapped his hands with joy, "Then use the disguise technique, you don't need to wear this Rausch gauze hat." ”

Qing'er hurriedly shook her head, "After you listen to me, his disguise technique is to use pig skin to thin and stick to his face, but he has completely changed a person, but the glue is very uncomfortable on the face, and it can only be used by the army, we can't use it, but there is another disguise technique is makeup, I am thinking, since Baoyanzhai sells all kinds of makeup powder, why not invite a high-level makeup craftsman to teach the skills, and in the future, Sister Guo can change into a person by wearing makeup, so that you don't have to worry about going out to play." ”

Sisi nodded, this is a good way, use makeup to change the appearance, Baoyan Zhai has this condition, and it can be fully utilized.

"Qing'er, do you know how to put on makeup?" Magpie asked.

"I'll only do it a little bit, but I know that there is a Granny Liu in the Daimyo Mansion who is very good at makeup, and Bao Yanzhai can invite her to teach makeup."

Magpie said happily: "Today I will go to tell the master that I must invite this Granny Liu, anyway, we Baoyanzhai also need a clever makeup master to be in charge." ”

.........

It didn't take much time to burn incense in Fayun Temple, they burned incense and came out, and the ox cart was already waiting in front of the house.

At this time, Zhang Hu stepped forward and said: "On the order of the imperial history, Mrs. Guard travels, Yang Guang and I follow behind the car, and Mrs. can command any requirements at any time!" ”

Sisi likes this Zhang Hu more, he is steady, down-to-earth, and trustworthy, and that Yang Guang is more flamboyant, but he is just nasty, and he is still reliable, so Sisi nodded, "It's going to trouble you two today." ”

Yang Guang waved his hand and said with a hippie smile: "Madame, don't worry, whoever dares to tease Madame, we promise to beat him half to death!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw a black lightning strike, the speed was incomparably fast, a snake-like whip slightly wrapped around Yang Guang's neck, Yang Guang was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, he already felt that there was an extremely sharp blade hidden in it, as long as he pulled it, his head was gone.

Hu Qing'er said coldly: "Don't talk nonsense in the future, especially in front of my sister-in-law, otherwise I will directly cut off your head." ”

"The villain knows it's wrong!" Yang Guang's face turned pale with fright, and he quickly admitted his mistake.

Sisi said softly beside him: "He's just this nasty, it's okay else, and he's also very loyal to the officials, Qing'er let him go!" ”

As soon as Qing'er's hand was released, the whip was withdrawn like lightning, 'Click! Buckled around her waist, her whip blade is usually buckled around her waist like a blue belt, whipping and retracting whips, extremely skillful, and is her most handy secret weapon.

Qing'er glared at Yang Guang, "Eldest sister, let's get in the car!" ”

The three of them got on the ox cart, the ox cart started slowly, Zhang Hu said to Yang Guang, who had palpitations: "Remember, don't use the word flirting casually in front of the housewife, this is disrespectful to the housewife, you have to control your mouth in the future, even the lady said that your mouth is annoying, in fact, we all think so, but we are embarrassed to say you." ”

Yang Guang touched his neck, and said with palpitations: "This sister of the official is amazing!" A single move can kill me, and I don't dare to mess with her again. ”
