Chapter 37: Autumn Coolness
As soon as the Holy Birthday Day passed, the weather began to get cooler, and Yao's mother instructed the little maids to put away the ice jian, bamboo mats and other things.
Rao is like this, Ji Zhun still kicked the quilt at night and caught a cold.
When Ning and Cui came to see her, they saw Ji Zhun lying on the bed with a red nose and eyes.
Grandmother Ning said to her: "Girl, let's lighten your strength, look at this nose is going to be scratched by you, whoever lets you sleep is not honest, no matter how old you are, you still kick the quilt." ”
Cui's relieved Ji Zhun and said: "Sister Heng will recuperate well in the past few days, but she has a cold, and she will be fine in a few days, and she has eaten lightly recently, and when you are well, my uncle will ask someone to hang tricks for you." ”
Ji Zhun had a stuffy nose, and his voice was angry, "Grandmother doesn't hurt Sister Heng either, or my uncle understands me." ”
Ning was kind, smiling and smiling at her.
Everyone only said a few words, Ji Zhun was afraid that he would pass on his illness to others, so he asked Yun Zhaoyue to wait for the two of them to talk, and Grandmother and Cui didn't stay long, got up and left.
Ji Zhun stayed in bed for two or three days, and the wind chill improved.
On this day, she hugged the thin quilt, leaned on the couch, looked out of the house, the ginkgo biloba leaves in the distance turned from green to yellow, and as soon as the breeze blew, a few pieces fell leisurely.
In the courtyard, Qiyun is taking the little maids to wash and dry many clay pots and porcelain jars.
As soon as he looked up, he happened to see the two sisters Ji Ya and Ji Ji enter the courtyard gate, and Ji Zhun beckoned to the two by the window. Ji Hen also waved at Ji Zhun and walked briskly to the room.
"How does the eldest sister feel? Lu Xuan and I cooked some white fungus soup and lotus seed soup and brought them to the eldest sister. Ji Ya said, and a little maid brought up a food box, opened it, and there was a small jar inside.
"Eldest sister, what are they doing here?" Ji Hen still stretched her neck and looked out.
Ji Zhun explained: "I saw the craftsmanship of Qiaoping tea at my grandmother's before, and later asked her about tea-making. By the way, make some osmanthus nectar, and let the clouds prepare the large and small jars first, and when they are ready, they will send some to you. ”
Ji Ya was very interested in hearing this, and Ji Zhun said: "I also made two orchid snow buds before, if you don't dislike it, you can taste it." ”
The two readily agreed. Not long after, the star sent three small cups and a pot of fragrant tea, the tea smoke rose, and the orchid fragrance was faint.
"Eldest sister, do you remember that Mrs. Su?" Ji Hen made a stubble.
"Which Mrs. Su are you talking about?" Ji Zhun turned his head to look at Ji Female
Ji Hen replied: "It's the lady who turned to salt and transported the envoy." ”
Ji Zhun remembered that it was the Su Fan clan he met in Jueguang Temple, "Remember, what's wrong with her?" ”
"She came to our house yesterday to see her grandmother, but she didn't ask you to go because you were still sick."
Ji Zhun nodded, and Ji Hen continued: "I heard my grandmother talk to her yesterday, Mrs. Su's family seems to be staying in the capital, and Master Su doesn't need to be transferred." ”
Since the last time Ji Zhun saw Mrs. Wang's stammering appearance towards Mrs. Su, he had already guessed that if it weren't for the Su family's usefulness, the Wang family wouldn't have pasted it.
Master Su has served as the envoy of the capital to salt for many years, and he has never made a mistake, and now he is staying in Beijing, thinking that the emperor intends to promote his official position.
Ji Hen hugged Ji Ya's shoulders and said with a smile: "It's good now, Sister also has friends to talk to." ”
Ji Ya is also very happy that Miss Su Chang can stay in Beijing, the two do have many common hobbies, and they can talk about each other.
Ji Zhun was also happy for Ji Ya, "Then this is really a good thing, when the Su family is all in place, Leyin, you can give Miss Su an invitation and invite her to come to the house to sit." ”
Ji Ya also nodded, and said softly: "Well, I also told my grandmother, and my grandmother also said that Miss Su is very good, let me get along with her." ”
The three sisters chatted all morning, and it was almost time for lunch to disperse.
In the afternoon, Ji Zhun went to his study, reclined on the chaise longue to read, urged Yun to lead Jinyang, and replaced the bottles in the room with newly picked lotus, the buds were pink and tender, and they were not released.
Ji Zhun put down the book, turned his head to look at it, and said, "There are still lotus flowers at this time." ”
Urging Yun smiled and shook his head: "If you go back to Miss, this is also the last crop of the year, so I will pick them all and insert bottles for each courtyard." ”
Ji Zhun leaned back into the couch again, and while turning the pages of the book, he muttered, "This year has passed really fast." ”
Qiyun looked at Ji Zhun's casual appearance, and also sighed: "Yes, after this year, Miss will be in time next year." ”
Ji Zhun understood the meaning of this girl's words, other young ladies from other families, someone will come to the door to propose marriage before and Lu, and you can marry a wife after waiting for Helu, on the other hand, no one in the British government has come to Ji Zhun to propose marriage so far.
Ji Zhun put the book to his lips and deliberately teased Yun Dao: "You girl is so afraid that I won't be able to get married?" ”
Qiyun raised his little round face and said earnestly: "Miss, let's talk behind closed doors, you are in a hurry." ”
Since Ji Zhun fell seriously ill after falling from his horse, people have become more relaxed, and he has spoken boldly.
Ji Zhun didn't care, but said: "Didn't the prince of Nadianyue mention his marriage in public, didn't I look down on it." ”
Qiyun couldn't cry or laugh, she looked at Ji Zhun, Ji Zhun was leaning on the couch at this time, bending his arms into a pillow, his black hair was half-pulled, and the way Linxuan read the post, Qiyun was also instantly relieved, with the appearance and family background of the young lady, there was indeed no need to rush for a while.
Outside the door, a little girl reported: "Sister Zhaoyue is here." ”
Zhaoyue lifted the gauze curtain and walked in, stepped over the partition door, and went straight to Ji Zhun to present two letters.
When Ji Zhun opened the letter, Qiyun and Zhaoyue retreated with Jinyang.
Ji Zhun unfolded the letter and read it, it was written by the shopkeeper of the restaurant. Probably speaking, the restaurant has begun to be renovated according to Ji Zhun's requirements, and I asked the owner, that is, Ji Zhun, if I want to go and have a look.
Ji Zhun got up and went to the bookcase, and wrote a reply letter to the shopkeeper Qiu, saying that he would take a look at it when he had time, and let them be busy first.
After replying to the letter, Ji Zhun went to open the second letter, the second letter was not an envelope she was familiar with, Ji Zhun took out the letterhead and read it carefully.
There are only a few lines on it, which was written by Lin Yuanhui, which means that he has been busy with Guozijian's schoolwork recently, and he has not had time to thank Ji Zhun for giving him a horse, and he will come to the door to thank him in person when he has the opportunity to come to thank him in the future.
Ji Zhun turned his head and thought about it, it seemed that there was such a thing, Lin Yuanhui couldn't live or die when he got into her carriage that day, first cried for a long time, and then muttered to her all the way, horses, horses, horsebacks, horses are good-looking......
She didn't know what Lin Yuanhui meant, but later she estimated that she had taken a fancy to her Fang Xing, and wanted to ask for a horse with the strength of wine, and after Ji Zhun returned home, he asked Ji Yong to pick a horse and send it to him.
It's been so long since this person remembered to thank her.
