Ji Zhun didn't pay attention to Mrs. Wang, but bent down and bowed to the woman who was the leader, and the etiquette rules were very proper.

"Ji Zhun, the daughter of the British Governor's House, ask Mrs. Ann."

The lady was stunned for a moment, put down the veil and turned her head, signaling that Ji Zhun didn't need to be polite, and then looked at Ji Zhun quietly.

At this time, a grandmother standing beside the lady stepped forward, saluted Ji Zhun, and said to Ji Zhun with a smile: "Also ask Miss An, my lord is the envoy of the salt transport, this is my wife Su Fan." ”

Ji Zhun called out politely again: "Mrs. Su." ”

As soon as Ji Zhun reported to his house just now, there was the shrewd big girl behind Mrs. Su who took out a purse and handed it to Mrs. Su.

After Ji Zhun greeted him, Su put the purse in Ji Zhun's hand.

"When I didn't arrive in Beijing, I heard that Miss Ji was a rare romantic figure, and I saw it today, I don't deceive me."

Ji Zhun replied generously and decently: "Mrs. Su has a good reputation, and Ji Zhun is ashamed." "The elders are not here, and Mrs. Su's gift is not easy to accept, so she has to refuse.

Mrs. Nasu also eased her complexion, and said to Ji Zhun with a smile: "It's my meeting gift to the girl, it's all gadgets, and the girl keeps it for fun." ”

Seeing that Mrs. Su said so, it was not a valuable thing to think about, Ji Zhun couldn't shirk it, so he had to accept it.

Ji Zhun thanked him, and Mrs. Su beckoned back again, calling a little girl who was twelve or thirteen years old and dressed in brocade, "Son, I have come to see Miss Ji from the Guogong Mansion." He said to Ji Zhun again: "This is my second girl, Su Chang." ”

That little girl is seven or eight points similar to Mrs. Su, but she has a pair of round eyes, which looks more gentle and lovely.

Miss Na Su and Ji Zhun met and exchanged a few words of greeting.

Mrs. Wang, who had been standing next to her, stared at the triangle for a long time, feeling depressed.

A few days ago, Wang Tong got a letter, saying that the transfer of salt made Master Su want to return to Beijing to report on his work, and his uncle Wang Zhongan asked him to find a way to have a good relationship with Master Su.

Wang Tong complained bitterly in his heart, how could he be a fifth-grade official, how could he get in touch with other people's senior officials in the court?

But when he thought about it, he couldn't do it, and his wife, so he inquired about Mrs. Su's whereabouts, and heard that Mrs. Su was going to come to Jueguang Temple to offer incense, so he asked his wife to come to Jueguang Temple to have a chance encounter with Mrs. Su.

Mrs. Wang got her husband's entrustment, and after seeing Mrs. Su, she picked up nice words and said a basket, and Mrs. Su behaved neither salty nor light.

She also heard that Mrs. Su came with Miss Su, and she specially brought her two nieces to accompany her.

Why don't you see Mrs. Su treating her two nieces so affectionately?

But she didn't want to hold a grudge against Mrs. Su, so she attributed her resentment to Ji Zhun.

Seeing that Ji Zhun was chatting hotly with the mother and daughter of the Su family, Mrs. Wang hurriedly interjected: "Miss Ji came to Jueguang Temple today, but she wants to go to the peach forest in the back mountain?" Are you going to see the poetry party held by the talented boys? Mrs. Wang squeezed those triangular eyes, and her eyes glanced back and forth at Ji Zhun, meaning something.

didn't wait for Ji Zhun to answer, so he said to himself again: "Oh yo ~ Look at my memory, Miss Ji, I don't like poetry and songs." ”

Ji Zhun rolled his eyes slightly, seeing that Mrs. Wang was in a tone, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart, he didn't care about this Mrs. Wang, this person was still energetic. +

Ji Zhun lowered his eyes, fiddled with the two narrow black jade bracelets wrapped around his wrists, and smiled lightly.

"Today, I came to Jueguang Temple with my grandmother to make incense, but I have never heard the elders talk about the poetry meeting, and I don't know it. is still Mrs. Wang well-informed, and the women in the house actually know everything about when and where the sons of Langjun will hold poetry meetings. ”

Mrs. Su also turned her head to look at Mrs. Wang, whose face was red and white, and she was about to open her mouth to argue.

Ji Zhun preemptively said: "Or is it that Mrs. loves poetry and music very much?" But whenever there is a poetry collection, Mrs. Wang will be moved by the wind? ”

After saying a few words, Mrs. Wang had nothing to say, and she was faceless.

Mrs. Su didn't say a word during the whole process, and when the two of them stopped talking, she said to Ji Zhun: "It turns out that the Duchess of Guo is also here, I just want to go to the meeting, and I have to bother Miss Ji to help introduce one or two." ”

Ji Zhun said that he didn't dare.

After chatting a few more words, Ji Zhun turned sideways and watched Mrs. Su leave with Su Chang.

Mrs. Wang wanted to catch up, but at this time, the grandmother who had been following Mrs. Su stepped forward to block Mrs. Wang's movements, and said with a smile: "You have been with my wife for a long time today, and my wife is also tired, go back to rest, Mrs. Wang, please go back too." ”

Mrs. Wang heard what other grandmothers said, and she was even more angry, and this day was a wasted day.

Ji Zhun ignored Mrs. Wang anymore and took the maids to his courtyard.

When the Ning family and the Cui family returned after listening to the scriptures, Ji Zhun told him about meeting Mrs. Su.

Ning said: "Master Su has served as the envoy of the capital to salt transportation for several years, and has been transferred abroad, and this time he returned to Beijing to report on his work, and even his family members have come back, I am afraid that he will stay in Beijing." ”

A few people were chatting, and a mother-in-law came to spread the word that Mrs. Su was visiting.

Ning asked Mrs. Su to come in, and Mrs. Su first met Mrs. Ning, the Duchess of the Kingdom, and then met with Cui.

Su Chang also came forward to give a junior salute to the Ning family and the Cui family, and the Ning family and the Cui family each gave a meeting gift.

Ji Ya Ji Hen also came forward to meet her, and Mrs. Su also prepared a meeting gift.

After everyone had met one by one, Ning and Su Fu sat on the Luohan bed and chatted.

Listening to Mrs. Su, she came to Jueguang Temple this time, in addition to incense, because of Mrs. Su's son Su Cen, she participated in the poetry meeting in the peach forest in the back mountain.

It turned out that Su Cen, the eldest son of the Su family, did not go to office with his father, but has been studying in the country. The mother, son, brother and sister have not seen each other for many years, and they don't want to leave when they see it this time, so Su Cen came to participate in the poetry meeting, and she brought Su Chang to Jueguang Temple for incense.

The elders chatted, Su Chang sat with Ji Zhun sisters, Ji Zhun wanted to entertain, chatted with Su Chang for a few words, and found that Su Chang was different from her mother, when she answered, her voice was soft, and she was a little shy, which was very similar to Ji Ya.

Mrs. Su's mother and daughter only sat for a while before getting up to say goodbye, and at this time, the temple also began to distribute vegetarian food.

Ning's was old, so he only ate some less simmered tender tofu, and Cui's also accompanied him.

The three Ji Zhun sisters all obeyed the rule of not eating for lunch in the temple. After serving his grandmother for dinner, Ning sent everyone back to their rooms to rest, and tomorrow they will have a good tour around the temple.

Everyone thanked the Ning family, and Gu all dispersed.

Ji Zhun returned to his room, and as soon as Yao's mother came today, she began to take the maids and mothers-in-law to pick up.

Now, a dark green woven gold curtain has been hung in the house, tables and chairs have been carefully polished, sandalwood is burning in the incense burner, and the charcoal stove on the floor is also warm.

Ji Zhun looked at Yao's mother with a smile and said, "Mom's placement is very appropriate." ”

Yao's mother smiled warmly, and it had been a few days since she returned to Ji Zhun's side. She thought that the young lady had brought her back on a whim, and she was very worried. She is aware of her young lady's temperament, but she doesn't think about it, Ji Zhun seems to be a different person, and treats everyone with a pleasant face. Her heart was happy, and she was no longer restrained.

Ji Zhun sent the little maids under him to retreat, leaving only Yun, Yue, Xing, and Yang plus a Yao mother, Ji Zhun sat on the chair covered with a purple begonia mattress, and the others sat on three spring stools, and the six people roasted around the charcoal pot.

Urging Yun said: "It's been a long time since spring, but there is no warming up this day. ”

Yao's mother said: "Yes, this year is indeed warmer than usual, and it is even colder in the mountains. ”

The star sneezed twice at the right time, and everyone laughed at her. Yao's mother said: "There is ginger syrup in the small kitchen, and the girl will drink some later." I also brought a few more quilts, and put them in our house, and the girl took them off and covered them, so as not to hurt the cold. ”

The star thanked Yao's mother, and Ji Zhun felt that since Yao's mother came back, their master and servant were more like a warm support.

Ji Zhun suddenly remembered something, so while everyone was talking around the fireplace, he pulled out the golden crown that was tied in a bun, turned his head to Jinyang and said, "Jinyang, I look at you all day today, and you always glance at me, but because of this?" ”

Jinyang saw Ji Zhun asking, and touched his nose embarrassedly, "Did you find out?" Ever since I learned the power of the golden crown this morning, I've always been worried that my hairpin is not strong enough, that it will slip and lose it. ”

Ji Zhun has always liked Jinyang's youth and fun, so Wen Yan said to her: "You didn't know how much it was worth before, and it was never lost, but now that you know, it will not be worn out because of your attention." These are just things outside the body, and when it is really a last resort, they are just two steamed buns and a bowl of gruel. ”

Ji Zhun saw that Jinyang didn't seem to understand what he heard, so he smiled and said heartily: "You just remember that your young lady has rare treasures." ”

Everyone laughed, and after laughing.

Zhao Yue, who had been sitting next to her, asked aloud: "Miss choked that Mrs. Wang today, will she find Miss unhappy?" ”

Yao's mother listened and hurriedly asked what happened. Qiyun told the story of the matter, and Yao's mother couldn't help frowning and looking at Ji Zhun.

Ji Zhun still sat there lightly, and when she saw everyone looking at her, she said: "There are some people and some things, if you don't retreat, she can spare you, maybe your blind tolerance has fueled her arrogance." Besides, she came to provoke me first, and she fell into trouble, knowing that it hurts, and she has to carry it herself. ”

Everyone listened to Ji Zhun's words, and they also felt reasonable, although Ji Zhun spoke slowly, they were at ease for no reason.

The master and servant laughed and talked for a long time before they all rested.

Early the next morning, Ji Zhun was served by the maids and dressed up. Yao's mother stood aside and said, "The old lady has a message from the side, saying that the mountain is quiet, the air is good, the old lady had a good night's sleep last night, and got up early today, saying that after the fast, we will go to the mountains together." ”

Ji Zhun got the letter, and began to step up the picking, she still combed her peach bun today, but the hair was braided with gold and silver strands.

In front of the bun, the hairpin is full of gold and jade pagoda full of distractions, and the back is wearing a gold silk inlaid with gems and green jade hollow double luan bird peony full crown, which is better than yesterday. Around the bun, there are some flower-headed hairpins inlaid with precious stones.

After putting on the hair accessories, Ji Zhun peeked at Jinyang behind him from the bronze mirror, Jinyang should have understood what he meant yesterday, and didn't care too much about these jewelry, Ji Zhun nodded with satisfaction.

Under the service of urging the clouds and the moon, he wore a long coat with a green cardigan, a navy blue woven gold skirt, satin soft boots on his feet, and a cloak with windy fur on the outside.

Ji Zhun simply used vegetarian food, got up and went to Ning's house, and talked with Ning for a while, Cui's and two younger sisters also arrived, and the group was surrounded by maids and mothers-in-law and walked to the back mountain.
