The night in the mountains is cold, Ji Zhun returned to the room and asked Xuyun to serve her to freshen up, and after washing properly, Ji Zhun sat on the edge of the bed, and Qiyun carefully applied flower dew to her. Another little maid called for hot soup, and the star stepped forward, took off Ji Zhun's embroidered shoes, pulled up his dirty pants, and the moment Ji put his feet into the hot water, he squinted comfortably.

She felt warm all around her, but her mind remembered the birth she had just mentioned. She remembered that in her previous life, around her fourteenth birthday, an incident happened in the court, and this incident even affected the Guogong Mansion.

But what it was, she couldn't remember for a moment. Ji Zhun frowned frequently, only more than a month was her birthday, she had to think about it quickly.

Seeing that Ji Zhun was a little anxious, the star who had been waiting on the side asked softly, "Miss?" But what's wrong? ”

When Ji Zhun heard the star's inquiry, he finally soothed his eyebrows, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just remembered a sentence of awkward poetry." He motioned to the star and she was ready.

The star twisted the veil and wiped it carefully for her, and Ji Zhun shrank his feet and got into the bed. asked the star again: "How did you call Sister Yue and their tidying up?" Go and see, and if it's almost over, call the moon to come to me. ”

The star replied and retreated with a cedar basin.

After a while, Summoning Moon pushed the door and came in, first stirring the carbon in the hearth. walked to Ji Zhun's bed, "Miss, you call me?" ”

Ji Zhun hugged the quilt and sat up, pointed to the chair on the side, and motioned to Zhaoyue to sit down, and after Zhaoyue thanked him, he sat down according to his words.

After Zhaoyue sat down, Ji Zhun said: "It's not anything else, I just remembered the last time I asked you, and I want to invite your brother to come into the house to ask a question." I wonder if you've been in contact with him lately? ”

Zhao Yue leaned over and said: "Back to Miss's words, I have contacted, my brother has already returned to Beijing, and after listening to my message, he will stay at home and wait for Miss to summon him at any time." ”

Ji Zhun hurriedly asked: "I didn't expect to live in the temple for two days, I don't know if it will delay your brother's business?" ”

Zhaoyue shook her head, "Miss, don't worry, every time they finish a dart, they will have to be rectified in Beijing for a long time." ”

Ji Zhun nodded, "That's good, then the day after tomorrow, you will go home the day after tomorrow, and you will lead your brother into the house the next day." ”

The moon should be called.

The lights went out, and there was no word all night.

On the second day, Ji Zhun got up early in the morning, dressed neatly, and went to his grandmother Ning's house.

Not long after Ning's got up, he was sitting on a chair covered with deerskin, and Mother Xue was serving to comb her hair. Seeing Ji Zhun coming in, he smiled and said, "You got up early today." ”

Ji Zhun also smiled, stepped forward, took the comb from Mother Xue's hand, and grated Ning's hair thinly. Ning is now less than sixty, and his hair is still jet black. Ji Zhun boasted, "Grandmother's hair is still so good." ”

Ning couldn't help but look in the mirror, "I think it's better to add some silver threads, and look majestic, so as not to bully the children and grandchildren of our Ji family with those eyeless things." ”

Hearing this, Ji Zhun turned his head to look at Mother Xue, who nodded at her.

Ji Zhun sighed and said, "Yesterday's incident, I didn't plan to alarm you, but I didn't think about it, but I still let you know." ”

Ning took a headband embroidered with Ganoderma lucidum inlaid with red sapphires on the table and handed it to Ji Zhun behind him.

"Then what are the Wang family and the Guo family, are they easy to bully when they look at our family? I dare to trouble my granddaughters three times and twice. "Ning was a little moved.

Ji Zhun was relieved and said: "It's just a small fish and a little shrimp, grandmother, relax, my two sisters and I haven't taken them into account yet." ”

When Ning said this, she also smiled and said, "Also, I heard about yesterday's incident, Sister Heng cleaned up the Guo family sisters." ”

Ji Zhun put on a hairband for Ning's family, and took two hairpins from the deer to visit the pine forest. said: "How can it be as powerful as my grandmother said, I am just telling the truth." ”

At this time, Cui's mother and daughter also came, and several people passed breakfast. After eating, they chatted in Ning's house.

When the time came, the housekeepers and mothers-in-law of each room came one after another to tell them that they had cleaned up.

Ning took all the ladies to the main hall, and the group first bid farewell to the abbot and donated three hundred taels of sesame oil.

The monk sent them to the gate of the temple, and when they all got into the carriage, they recited the Buddha's name and left with their palms together.

The carriage rolled toward the city.

When the ladies of the Ji family returned to the Guogong Mansion, it was dark, and everyone went back to their respective courtyards to settle.

Early the next morning, Cui and the three young ladies came to greet the old lady. Ning Shi was not tired, and his spirit was very full.

beckoned them all to sit, the Ji family has a simple population, and the Ning family is not the kind of mother-in-law who sets rules for her daughter-in-law and plays prestige at every turn. In addition, the Cui family is young and widowed, and she has to take care of the chores of the whole family, so she is particularly pitiful.

Today, Ning's interest was very high, so the maids took down the original Lu'an melon slices and asked their eldest maid Qiaoping to order tea.

There was also a little maid holding a few sweet white glaze paintings, Fushou Sanduo tall discs. There are a few kinds of fruit snacks such as Qingtuan, jujube paste yam cake, and Yanjin plums, and several people chatting while eating.

After a while, Qiaoping's tea was also made. Ji Zhun took a light and took a closer look, it was a riverside pavilion, it was very good to bite the lamp, but I didn't expect Qiaoping to have such craftsmanship.

It is enough to see that my grandmother's family is a scholarly family for a hundred years.

Ning pulled Cui Shi to sit on the kang opposite him, "Come next to your mother, you've been busy in the past two days, right?" Haven't you had time to hear someone from below hear back? "The affairs of the house are usually reported to the Cui family in the morning, because they have not been in the house for the past two days, and the mothers-in-law in charge have not had time to return.

Cui Shi shook his head, "Mother Xie cares, my daughter-in-law rested early yesterday, and she hasn't listened yet." ”

"That's right, let them talk back, it just so happens that a few sisters are also there, and they also learn the doorway of the Lord's feed." Ning said to Cui.

Cui Shi turned around with a smile and explained to his housekeeper, and the grandmother took the order, and after a stick of incense, she came in and said that the housekeeper was here, and she was waiting outside.

Cui Shi turned his head to look at Ning's, and Ning said with a smile: "Don't look at my old wife, I'm just idle recently, listen to the excitement, just act according to the past." ”

Cui Shi followed the words and said to the grandmother, "Call in and talk back." ”

After a few housekeepers came in, they first asked a few masters to say goodbye, and then returned to the expenses in the house in the past few days one by one, and the reply was clear and clear, and they were also very respectful to Cui's family, and they were old people that Cui's family was used to.

When the mother-in-law at the back office replied, she first presented a gold-sprinkled invitation, and Qiaoping took it and presented it to Ning, who read it and passed it to Cui's. The woman saw that everyone saw it, and then said: "The day before yesterday, Mrs. and Mrs. went to Jueguang Temple, but it happened that the Marquis of Anyang sent someone to send an invitation, saying that in more than ten days, Mrs. Anyang Marquis was going to hold a flower party in the house, and wanted to invite Mrs. and Mrs. and Miss to participate. ”

"Oh! This has to go, the old lady and I are old acquaintances. We knew each other when we were in the boudoir, and in the early years she had been saying that she was recuperating in another village on the outskirts of Beijing, and now she is willing to come back. Ning's eyebrows stretched, and he was very rich with a smile.

Ning pointed to the mother-in-law in charge of the comprador and said, "I will find the housekeeper of the embroidery workshop early tomorrow morning, and now it is warm, and I will make two more spring shirts for the young ladies." ”

In fact, Ji Zhun and their spring shirts were made as early as winter, and my grandmother was happy to hear that Mrs. Lao Hou had a banquet and wanted them to dress up.

The mother-in-law responded, and the Cui family talked to the mother-in-law about some affairs in the house before waving her hand and letting them all retreat and get busy.

Ji Zhun watched from the sidelines, her uncle was the most kind, and she was soft-spoken when she talked to her on weekdays. Today is the first time I have seen her handing over affairs with the housekeepers, and she is also at ease and not angry and arrogant.

Ji Zhun secretly thought in his heart, if it was really a skirt and a hairpin, he could be a family.

Everyone chatted for a while about the style of spring shirts before they dispersed.

Ji Zhun went back to Tianxing Courtyard and saw that the star was taking a handkerchief and carefully wiping the ash on the leaves for Narcissus.

Ji Zhun asked her, "Xingxing, can you go home to Sister Zhaoyue?" ”

The star accepted the veil and saluted Ji Zhun first, "If you go back to Miss, Sister Zhaoyue went back early in the morning, saying that she was going to help Miss with her errands, and she also said that she would bring me amber candy back." After speaking, he licked his lips, his eyes were smiling, and there were two pear vortices hanging on his cheeks.

Ji Zhun also smiled and said, "Oh? You're going to rip off, and she'll have to bring you something once she comes home. ”

The star grinned, "Sister Zhaoyue turned out to be home, no wonder she left early in the morning." ”

When Ji Zhun saw her change the topic, he said, "Ghosts, you can eat lightly, beware of bad teeth." ”

After Ji Zhun finished speaking, he pulled out the book on the bookshelf and took it to the chaise longue in the east corner to look at.

The next morning.

Ji Zhun finished practicing his fists and feet in the martial arts hall in the mansion, tidied up his robe and turned around to Tianxing Courtyard.

Since she recovered from a leg injury, she has mentioned kung fu to the British public. In the past, she was afraid of changing her figure, so she only practiced internal kung fu. But when it comes to killing the enemy, you have to learn foreign kung fu. The British Duke was naturally happy to hear her request, so he invited her to a master, and now she has to practice in the martial arts hall every morning for an hour.

When Ji Zhun returned to Tianxing Courtyard, Zhao Yue was already waiting for her in the house.

When Ji Zhun saw Zhaoyue, he asked, "Can you bring your brother here?" ”

Zhaoyue nodded, "Brother is here, I don't dare to bring it in rashly, and now I am waiting for the summons of the young lady in the inverted room at the side door." ”

When Ji Zhun heard her say this, he called a few maids such as Qiyun.

"Urging Yun, you go with Zhaoyue, first take Brother Zhaoyue to sit in the flower hall, and entertain me for my life." Urging Yun agreed to take Zhaoyue away, and Zhaoyue hurriedly said: "Miss, my brother is a rough person, how can I bother Miss to transfer Sister Zhaoyun." ”

Ji Zhun beckoned to Jinyang to change her clothes for her, and tapped the door with his chin, "Go ahead, I'll be there later." ”

Qiyun knew that Miss was giving Zhaoyue and her brother enough dignity, and she didn't give Zhaoyue a chance to shirk again, so she took her hand and walked out.

Ji Zhun changed into a long gown embroidered with lotus lotus flowers, and wore a moon-white threaded skirt. She packed up and came to the flower hall, and when she saw Qiyun directing the little maids to serve tea and fruit to a young man.

Ji Zhun approached, only to see that the person's appearance was very similar to Zhaoyue, although he was not very handsome, but he was considered Zhou Zheng, coupled with his calm bearing, it seemed that he had a bit of a chivalrous demeanor.

Ji Zhun saw that he was sitting there neither humble nor arrogant, wearing a washed and old round-necked robe. Ji Zhun couldn't have imagined that in his previous life, he and his sister Zhaoyue would fall into such a field.

"I don't know what Brother Zhaoyue is called?" Ji Zhun asked out loud first.
