Chapter 10 A Visit to Aunt Qing
After lunch, Ji Ruhuan took someone out of the door.
The sudden appearance of the eldest lady surprised the masters and servants in Aunt Qing's courtyard, and they each thought in their hearts, could it be that they had something to displease the eldest lady during this time?
I heard that the eldest lady actually came to visit the patient, which also surprised everyone in the hospital, and Aunt Qing remembered that she had been calling herself sick for a while and hadn't gone out much, but everyone had already welcomed in, and if she wanted to make a show at this time, it was too late.
Looking at the door with a gentle smile on her face, not like Miss Ji who came to find fault, Aunt Qing was still slightly stunned, but she quickly came back to her senses, stood up and bent down to salute, "The concubine has seen the eldest lady." ”
Ji Ruhuan bent down to return the salute, then went over to personally support Aunt Qing, and said, "Auntie is better?" Huan'er didn't see her aunt show up for a few days, so she was a little worried, so she came over to take a look. ”
Ji Ruhuan's attitude frightened Aunt Qing, she remembered that the eldest lady had never looked at them in the past, how could she come to see her?
It wasn't until Aunt Qing was helped by Ji Ruhuan to sit down that she came back to her senses a little and answered, "The concubine is fine, so the eldest lady is worried." ”
Ji Ruhuan responded with a smile, "That's good, Aunt Qing is an elder, just call me Huan'er in the future." ”
In fact, Ji Ruhuan is such a style, but she is not completely acting, in her impression, Aunt Qing's sense of existence is really minimal, and in the end, she fell inexplicably, and she didn't care much, but she is the second brother's mother-in-law, just in front of the second brother, Ji Ruhuan's respect for Aunt Qing is also a little sincere.
Aunt Qing was worried because of Ji Ruhuan's sudden change, and she was also sitting there like a pins and needles, which was very uncomfortable.
Ji Ruhuan saw it in her eyes, but she was also helpless, and she was a little impressed in Aunt Qing's heart before.
In the end, she let go of Aunt Qing's hand and sat down in a regular manner, Aunt Qing also breathed a sigh of relief, and beckoned the maid on the side to serve tea.
This is the first time Ji Ruhuan has come to Aunt Qing's yard, looking at the furnishings in the house, the decoration is quite elegant.
Aunt Qing saw that Ji Ruhuan looked around and didn't speak, the atmosphere was really a little embarrassing, so she had nothing to say and said, "The weather is getting colder, and Da Huan'er should wear more." ”
Ji Ruhuan retracted her gaze and replied with a smile, "Thank you aunt for mentioning it." ”
Then he said to the maid who was standing at the door holding the box, "Loquat, bring the blood ginseng I prepared for Aunt Qing." ”
Although she was talking to the maid, Ji Ruhuan's eyes looked at Aunt Qing without blinking, and sure enough, when she heard her name loquat again, Aunt Qing's eyes flashed.
Ji Ruhuan smiled on her face, and said to Aunt Qing, "Aunt Qing still has to take care of her body, we don't need Aunt Qing to help take care of it in this house, and it is useless for this blood ginseng to stay with me, so I sent it to Aunt Qing." ”
Aunt Qing replied with a smile, "Huan'er has a heart and sends something over, then I won't be polite to Huan'er." ”
As he was talking, he saw Ji Chengmu, the second young man of the Ji family, coming in from outside the door in a hurry, and saw the two people sitting in the room smiling and smiling, and he was stunned before coming back to his senses.
After seeing the gift to Aunt Qing, Ji Er Shaocai smiled and said to Ji Ruhuan on the side, "Why did Huan'er come to Aunt Qing's courtyard today?"
Only that smile can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, with a strong sense of vigilance.
The corners of Ji Ruhuan's eyes twitched, and she said in her heart Is she so terrible, and she rushed back in such a hurry, was she afraid that she would not be able to eat Aunt Qing?
His face still did not change and he bowed down and responded, "Second brother, I heard that Aunt Qing was unwell, so I came over to take a look. ”
Ji Ruhuan's co-organized style made Ji Ershao look surprised, the previous Miss Ji relied on her identity as a concubine, and she was always in her eyes, seeing these brothers, she looked arrogant and disdainful, and she actually called herself a second brother for a few days?
Ji Ershao's surprised expression hung on his face unabashedly, Ji Ruhuan looked very embarrassed, it seemed that he was really a little unbearable in his previous life in this second brother's heart, and it was difficult for him to think about saving her when he was in trouble.
Aunt Qing hurriedly opened her mouth to resolve the embarrassing atmosphere, "Why is Amu still standing, sit down, it's time for lunch?"
Ji Ershao also noticed his gaffe, coughed embarrassedly, sat down under Aunt Qing in the past, and said, "It's already been used." ”
Several brothers of the Ji family, only the eldest was raised by Aunt Yun and Mrs. Ji for many years, at that time, the border was turbulent, and General Ji was basically on the border battlefield and rarely returned home.
When General Ji came back from the border, he found that this son was getting more and more squeamish, and he didn't have the demeanor that a man from the Ji family should have.
After that, he wanted to discipline him strictly, but when he was away, the child had already been arrogant, and every time he used his grandmother as a shield, he was really disappointed.
After the two sons, General Ji no longer kept them in the inner courtyard, but taught them to their aunts or grandmothers, and after the age of three, he prepared a separate courtyard for them, hired a teacher, and taught them to practice martial arts, read and write.
So Ji Ershao has been independent in eating and living since he was three years old, and he has not been with Aunt Qing.
After getting a little older, several young masters of the Ji family went to Yidu Yingtian Academy, and the time for mother and daughter to meet was even less.
At this time, seeing his son rushing over, he must have been afraid that Ji Ruhuan would find trouble for him, and he was also very happy.
This happiness ignored the purpose of Ji Ruhuan's coming, and greeted with a smile, "It just so happened that I asked the kitchen to make plum blossom cakes, Mama Wang, you go to the kitchen to have a look, if it's good, send it, let Amu and Huan'er taste it." ”
After that, it was a happy scene, although Ji Ershao was wary of whether Ji Ruhuan wanted to make any moths, but he didn't show it on his face anymore, Ji Ruhuan also seemed to really come to visit Aunt Qing, and he didn't say anything else.
After staying for almost half an hour, Ji Ruhuan got up and left first.
It was only when the back at the door disappeared that Ji Ershao said to Aunt Qing on the side, "What is she here for?"
Aunt Qing sighed, "The eldest lady has grown up. ”
I don't want to think about it the next day, Ji Ruhuan came to the door again, Aunt Qing remembered that when Miss Ji chatted with herself yesterday, she said that her pastries here were delicious, so she politely responded casually, if you think it is delicious, you will come again tomorrow, and you don't want to really come.
With the first time, the second time can be handled calmly, Ji Ruhuan is still the same as yesterday, just bored to come to eat pastries, except for chatting a few words about the daily life of cold and warm cloth and clothing, there is nothing superfluous.
He stayed for about half an hour, and then left again.
Aunt Qing couldn't figure out what the purpose of this eldest lady Ji was, in this general's mansion, the eldest lady was close to Aunt Qing and went to Aunt Qing's yard for two consecutive days, but it had already been rumored.
Aunt Yun, who had already come out of the ancestral hall, heard the report of the maid next to her, and responded coldly, "Hmph, I underestimated that girl, I fell in love with her last time, did you think that she could be easily calculated this time?"
Ji Cheng'an, who was sitting and drinking tea on the side, asked curiously, "Does my mother know what she wants to do this time?"
Aunt Yun responded, "She did it on purpose to show us, and wanted to take the opportunity for us to pinch with Aunt Qing, so that she could sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”
On the third day, after lunch, Ji Ruhuan was letting the maid wait to rinse her mouth, and Qiu's mother on the side asked, "Miss, did you go to Aunt Qing's side today?"
Ji Ruhuan responded, "No, you can inquire and see what grandmother is doing this afternoon." ”
Qiu's mother responded, so she went out to make arrangements.
Of course, there is no need for Mother Qiu to go to these things in person, she is the nurse of the eldest lady, and she is also the housekeeper of her side, although she was embarrassed in front of the eldest lady before, but the subordinates of this lingering pavilion are still under her control.
Except for the eldest lady who served beside the eldest lady before, no one dared to despise Qiu's mother, and there were several little girls, all of whom were Qiu's mother's right-hand man.
Of course, there are also people who were close to Wan'er before, and after Qiu's mother knew that Wan'er actually colluded with Aunt Yun to settle the eldest lady, she was sent to other places by Qiu's mother with an excuse.
Nowadays, there are a lot fewer people who miss Your Excellency, and most of them are more regular or Qiu's mother's own people, and loquat is one of the more regular.
