CHAPTER XXI
"Third sister, when my grandmother asked me to let the Pei family's marriage out, I made it clear that I was voluntary.
I don't know why the Pei family still hires me, but whether what you say is true or not, I'll tell my sister again, I'm ...... I don't want to ask for it."
Qingyan said solemnly, the light in her eyes flashed almost to make Li Qinghuan believe that she was telling the truth.
But......
Pei Rui, one of the "Four Sons of Great Qi", Li Qingyan, a concubine, why don't you want it, it's so simple!
Why is she?
Li Qinghuan didn't want to believe Qingyan's words from the bottom of his heart, let alone believe that she Li Qinghuan couldn't give up what she Li Qinghuan could do.
"Fourth sister, since this is the case, please make it clear to Pei Gongzi", Li Qinghuan showed a look of thinking about her.
"Lest Pei Gongzi worry about it"!
"Concerned?" Qingyan laughed angrily: "Why is he worried, the words of his parents' matchmaker, he has never met or passed on love, what is he worried about?" Don't worry about others, but rely on my name, I don't do this dead pot on my head"!
Li Qinghuan blushed suddenly, was very annoyed and tried his best to endure and said: "My sister's words are too rude, who is listening to this to you, if it is spread outside, let other families look at our Li family's young lady!"
Qingyan pouted and said: "What is my sister angry about, my sister is just telling the truth, if you don't think it sounds good, you will be treated as if your sister didn't say it."
After speaking, Qingyan took a sip of tea, but he laughed in his heart.
"Hmph, let you say these words that ruin my reputation for no reason, fortunately it's just the two of us, if outsiders hear it, I can't think that I have a deep relationship with Pei Gongzi who has never even met face."
Li Qinghuan saw that Li Qingyan was not as soft-eared and easy to speak as before, so he had to sulk and not speak, and he had to listen to her ridicule, and after a while, he found a generous reason to send her away.
And Qingyan couldn't do it, and when she left, she didn't forget to take away the fresh seasons sent to her by her grandfather's house from Li Qinghuan.
Ha ha......
Thinking of the pig's kidney-like face that Li Qinghuan was about to pull to the ground when she left, Qingyan couldn't help laughing.
"Miss, Miss Three has always been stingy, and now that you want her things from her, it is estimated that Miss Three will have to sulk for several days.
However, in the past, it was the young lady who suffered a loss, but now the third lady has suffered a loss, and the slave maid also looks happy", Bi Qing said with a smile on her face.
"Biqing, you send someone to monitor the people in the Begonia Garden, and see if any of them secretly went out to meet the people of the Pei family."
"Okay, did Miss find something?"
Qingyan frowned and thought: "I always feel that the third sister is not right, she obviously doesn't look like she is deeply angry with Pei Ruiqing, but why does she always have to help the Pei family?"
I can't figure out why!
So I think she should have another purpose! And someone must have taught her secretly.
Then she will inevitably come into contact with the people of the Pei family! ”
"The slave gets it."
Coming out of the Begonia Garden, they went up to the corridor on the quiet lake, through the corridor, from the northeast to the southwest corner, in the middle will pass the orchid garden that has been empty since the eldest lady got married, past the second lady's Furao Garden and a two-story study building, an embroidery room, the study building is next to the orchid garden, and the embroidery room is close to the Furao Garden.
When Qingyan and Biqing had just turned the corner of the study building, she vaguely saw a black shadow leaping from the second floor of the study building into the orchid garden.
She stood still, staring at the place for a long time, but there was no movement.
It seemed that she had misunderstood, and she thought in her heart that she would walk up again, but after taking a sharp step and turning back, the orchid garden was still calm.
What a mistake!
Qingyan muttered, his footsteps did not stop, and gradually he could no longer see the orchid garden.
The dark one who entered the orchid garden patted his chest and let out a long breath, so dangerous!
Then he entered the main house of the orchid garden!
After lunch, Qingyan didn't feel a little sleepy, so she didn't plan to take a nap, so she told Biqing to prepare a pot of tea and put it on the low table on the soft couch in the western room, and ordered Hongwu to prepare pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
The afternoon sun jumps into the house from the window lattice, and the soft couch sprinkles a piece of light, warmth, and natural comfort.
Biqing grinds ink, and Qingyan lies on the low table and draws a map seriously.
The houses and streets are exactly the same as those of the capital, and the names are very clearly marked, so that even illiterate people can recognize this as the capital of Daqi at a glance.
"Biqing, put it away, take it directly next time you go out."
Bi Qing looked at her with sparkling eyes and extremely admiring, and said, "Miss, you have only been out three or four times, how can you remember all the mansions and streets in the entire city so clearly?"
Qingyan smiled mysteriously: "Three or four times is enough, this is the secret of the young lady, you have to keep it, no one can tell you?"
Biqing knew that Miss was teasing her again!
But since the young lady said it was a secret, she regarded it as a secret, and she was no longer curious.
Hongwu walked in, walked to the low table, bent down and put a plate of longan on the table, and this was the fresh season that Qingyan had brought back from the third lady.
"Miss, Lan Yue told me that she found something wrong with Mother Zhang."
Qingyan peeled off a longan and put it in her mouth, the sweet taste made her squint, and said leisurely: "What else did Blue Moon say?"
She also said that Zhang's mother used to be very quick in her work, but now she always breaks the bowl.
also said that Zhang's mother's arms were much thicker, and she didn't look like a woman.
also said that Zhang's mother doesn't like to talk to train people, so she stays in the small kitchen every day. ”
"Oh?" Qingyan frowned calmly, with a hint of dark light in his eyes, leaning on the blue soft pillow, one hand against his chin, and the other hand playing with the soft hair hanging down on both sides of his cheeks, with a pensive face.
Could it be that Zhang's mother is not the previous Zhang's mother, or has she changed.
"Hongwu, call my mother in, saying that since I woke up, my mother doesn't seem to be willing to go into the main house."
Zhang's mother was tinkering in the small kitchen, and suddenly heard the young lady call her into the house, and her body trembled three times, and she said with a sad face: "Coming...... This brings us to ......".
In her heart, it was like beating a drum: What can I do? Why did the fourth lady suddenly pass her into the house?
Blame that "dead man" for his bad idea!
She secretly cursed the "dead man" several times in her heart!
At this time, the entire house of Orchid Garden was turned inside and out, and he sneezed several times in a row!
Damn it! Who's thinking about him?
"Little Miss, is there something wrong?" Mother Zhang's wrinkled face was kind and gentle, and she asked with a smile as soon as she entered the door.
Qingyan got off the soft couch and walked over very naturally, took her hand, took her to the couch and sat down, and said with a soft smile: "Mom, since you came back, you are not as good as before."
Mother Zhang's heart was broken, and she was already trembling slightly in her heart: The hand that Miss pulled her won't be chopped off!
"Miss is talking nonsense, my mother loves you as much as before", Zhang's mother tried to calm down, but in fact she felt a layer of cold sweat all over her body.
