Chapter 423: Door-to-door peace
Early the next morning, Lin Ruan slept until dawn before getting up.
After a slightly late breakfast, Lin Ruan planned to go to the store to have a look.
Last night, I was afraid that the people in the store would be busy until the middle of the night.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard a report from the porter, saying that Liang Xiaowei and his wife from Jinyiwei had come to visit.
Lin Ruan raised his eyebrows, Liang Twelve is here?
Thinking of Xiao Jingchen's attitude towards Liang Twelve during this time, Lin Ruan couldn't help but laugh.
In fact, she didn't get angry with Liang Twelve for a long time, but Liang Twelve was too arrogant, and always wanted to wait for her to hand the steps, but she didn't want to do what he wanted.
Now he came to the door with his wife, and he bowed to her.
This is actually not too easy for Liang Twelve.
Liang Twelve has the arrogance of a child of a family, and he can enter the lower body, but he doesn't know how long he has been fighting.
She is not the person who is unforgiving, and she will not rely on Xiao Jingchen's momentum to deliberately embarrass people. What's more, Liang Twelve has also helped her a lot before, although it is all because of Xiao Jingchen, but she is also willing to accept Liang Twelve's favor.
So Lin Ruan hurriedly asked people to invite their husband and wife in.
In front of the Townsman's Mansion.
Liang Twelve took the fan and shook it for Qi's family, and kept saying in his mouth: "Don't come, don't come, you have to follow, it's too sinful on such a hot day." Lin Ruan, a stinky girl, has a really big shelf, and she even let the young master wait outside the door! ”
As soon as Qi heard this, he was so angry that he reached out and twisted him: "Husband! Have you forgotten what I said earlier? ”
Liang Twelve inhaled in pain: "I haven't forgotten, I haven't forgotten, you hurry up." ”
Qi Shi let go of his hand and wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.
The pregnant woman was already afraid of heat, and although there was an ice basin in the carriage, the temperature was not high, but she still felt a little hot.
Speaking of this ice basin, Qi couldn't help but think differently.
In previous years, ice in Kyoto was in short supply. Families spend a lot of money in the winter to buy ice from farther north to preserve it for the following summer.
For this reason, in the palace, ice is not something that can be squandered casually, and some unfavored concubines may not be able to see half a piece of ice in summer. From this, it is enough to show how rare ice is.
For people like them, the amount of ice they use every day is also calculated.
But a few days ago, the imperial court actually began to sell ice, and the price was not high, it was cheaper than in winter.
At that time, the whole of Kyoto was boiling, and everyone sent people to line up to buy ice, for fear that they would not be able to buy it if they were too late. As a result, the officials who sold the ice let out a message, saying that there was no need to worry, there were enough ice pipes, and they wanted as much as they wanted.
At first, not many people believed this, thinking that it was just that the court was afraid of something that would make people say that, and the big guy should rob or rob. As a result, until now, the ice in that car is still being pulled out. Nowadays, ordinary people in Kyoto can use ice.
It is said that the imperial court was given a recipe for making ice, which could make as much ice as you wanted.
From now on, they no longer need to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to buy ice in the north.
Thinking like this, Qi's heart felt a lot more comfortable. If you go out in the past, where can you put an ice basin in the car, then it is called suffering.
Putting away his divergent thinking, Qi Shi looked at Liang Twelve: "After calling Lin Xiangjun for a while, husband, don't be so willful." Even if she doesn't have the support of Prince Xiao, if her grade is higher than you. ”
Liang Twelve said impatiently: "I know it for my husband." ”
But I thought in my heart, although the stinky girl is now a fourth-grade countryman, and he is only sixth-grade, but in fact, the weight of his official position is not much heavier than that stinky girl. After all, that stinky girl's title is a void, he is the one who has real power, and he is also doing things for the emperor, can he compare?
But he could only think about this in his heart, and he didn't dare to show it in front of his daughter-in-law, otherwise he would have to be scratched again.
Pregnant women can't be provoked.
At this moment, the porter came out and said respectfully: "Lord Liang, Mrs. Liang, the township gentleman has invited the two of you into the mansion." ”
Liang Twelve immediately lifted the curtain of the carriage and went out, and then helped Qi out of the carriage.
The husband and wife followed the door out to pick them up and walked to the house, and as soon as they entered the gate, they were attracted by the delicacy of the yard.
I saw that the yard was lush with flowers and trees, and the temperature seemed to be much cooler than outside the house.
Qi looked at the flowers and trees in the courtyard, his mood was much soothed, and he couldn't help but praise: "Lin Xiangjun's mansion is really beautiful, it doesn't look like he just moved in." ”
When Lin Ruan came to greet them, he happened to hear this sentence and said with a smile: "Thank you sister-in-law for your compliment, if you think my yard can still be seen, I will come and sit more in the future." ”
When Qi heard this, he turned around and looked, only to see Lin Ruan dressed in a smoke-rain colored dress, coming towards them.
Qi hurriedly saluted and said, "I've seen the countryman." ”
Lin Ruan stepped forward a few steps and grabbed her: "Sister-in-law, don't be polite." ”
Qi Shi listened to Lin Ruan's address to her, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart, this Lin Xiangjun is not difficult to get along with, and he does not hate her husband.
So she smiled and grabbed Lin Ruan's hand: "Since you are willing to call me sister-in-law, then I will be cheeky to call you by your maiden name." Ah Ruan, in the past, I always heard my husband mention you and praise you, and I was also curious about what kind of woman he was, who could make him a person with eyes on the top of his head, so full of praise, when I saw it today, I finally understood. You are better than the words he boasted about. ”
Lin Ruan couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister-in-law has won the award, the Twelfth Master must have scolded me in front of you recently." ”
Seeing that she didn't look angry, Qi Shi said with a smile: "Don't mention his awkward temperament, I want to reconcile with you tomorrow morning, but I can't pull down my face, I complain every day, I look like a resentful woman, I am almost annoyed to death by him, why didn't I pull him to the door today to make peace." Ah Ruan, your twelfth brother is not bad-eyed, but his mouth is annoying, if he really wants to say something unpleasant, don't let him, just go back, but you must not go to your heart. ”
Lin Ruan had a good impression of Qi, he was a smart and transparent person, he made his intentions clear in a few words, and expressed his apologies without a trace.
So he smiled and said, "That's for sure, I won't let him." Let's go, sister-in-law, I'll take you around the garden. ”
As he spoke, he took Qi's hand and walked up to the corridor.
Liang Twelve looked at the backs of the two of them, a little stunned.
Is this okay? It's that easy? That stinky girl didn't take the opportunity to taunt him?
He was ready to be sprayed in the face by that stinky girl, but she just revealed the matter so lightly, without taking advantage of his grandfather's power to embarrass him.
This made him prepare a stomach and didn't have a chance to say anything, and he felt uncomfortable!
But I felt extremely happy.
This stinky girl, huh!
