Chapter 16: New Arrivals

Updated: 2014-04-11

"Sister, don't you think there's a problem?" Qin Baochuan asked rhetorically, he knew that his sister was by no means as simple as an ordinary boudoir daughter's family, and he had always seen his sister's intelligence, and he knew how his sister protected him, very clearly.

Qin Yunuan stared at Qin Baochuan for a long time, and for the first time, she felt that she seemed to be able to treat Qin Baochuan as a little adult: "You tell me your opinion first." ”

This is to guide Qin Baochuan to think.

Qin Baochuan frowned and said: "I just think it's strange, we only took half a cup of tea from the time we came out of the Qin Mansion to the time we were attacked, and we were so close to the Qin family, but the Qin family didn't send anyone to take a look at the situation during the whole process, besides, the eaves where those assassins were ambushed was the back seat of the Qin family, didn't the Qin family notice it at all?" ”

This is also what Qin Yunuan has thought of a long time ago, and it is also the reason why Leng Changxi suddenly avoided talking about it and said that he didn't know, if the Qin family was implicated, then the matter would be even more complicated.

Qin Zhen, Qin Linfeng, Qin Yunxiang and Aunt Liu's room, plus a newcomer Dou Meishuang, who is behind the ghost?

"Third young grandmother, it's here." Man'er reminded Qin Yunuan outside that he had arrived at King Ning's Mansion, and the coachman had already moved the wooden steps over.

Qin Yunuan led Qin Baochuan, and a few of the little guys in the concierge were already nodding and coming over to say hello.

"Yo, the third young grandmother came back so early."

Qin Yunuan nodded with a smile, returned a kind and kind smile, and asked again, "Is the old lady in the mansion?" ”

Listening to the old lady of Ning Wangfu often entering the palace to visit the Queen Mother recently, the two are really strange, although they are sisters, they always look a little rusty, saying that they are a little rusty, but the two often get together to talk about joy.

The porter continued to bow and said, "The old lady just came back from the palace, and she looks in a good mood, is the third young grandmother going to ask for peace?" ”

Qin Yunuan took Qin Baochuan by the hand, although it is said that Princess Ning is now in charge of the affairs of King Ning's Mansion, but the young and the young are orderly, Qin Yunuan took Qin Baochuan back to the house this time, and the first thing she wanted to meet was naturally this old lady of Ning Wang's Mansion.

In addition to the first day of the wedding to the old lady's yard to serve a cup of tea, Qin Yunuan has been through the door for so many days, or the first time to set foot in the old lady's lotus courtyard, the name of the courtyard is simple, but it is very appropriate, it is August, the lotus flowers in the yard are blooming, Tingting swaying, far away fragrant, like a dancer light yarn jade standing in the pool of fairy daughters, the lotus flowers in this pool, are rare varieties, there are no other places. Just because the old lady especially liked this fragrance, King Ning specially found it from another place and transplanted it.

When Qin Yunuan took Baochuan around the Hanging Flower Gate, she happened to see the old lady lying on the rattan chair in the small pavilion to take a nap, her somewhat loose eyelids were half-closed, and the big maid beside her was fanning her gently and gently, even when she was so quiet and silent, the old lady still looked so solemn and undesecrated.

Now it is the hottest time, and the trees are chirping, adding a bit of noise to this hot afternoon.

"The third young grandmother is here." The maid guarding the door saw Qin Yunuan coming from a distance and blessed her body slightly, and said with a smile, "The old lady is still resting, if the third young grandmother has something to find the old lady, you can go back first, and when the old lady wakes up, the slave and maid will go over and inform the third young grandmother, so as not to burn the body." ”

Qin Yunuan raised her eyes and glanced inside, the old lady was sleeping quietly and peacefully, it seemed that she couldn't wake up in a short time, and glanced at Baochuan again, Qin Baochuan was already sweating profusely.

"It's okay," Qin Yunuan smiled slightly, "My courtyard is still too far away from the Hexiang Courtyard, and it's not good to let the old lady wait when the time comes, I'll just stand here and wait." ”

Qin Yunuan said forcefully and gently, knowing that the cicada has also followed the old lady for many years, and she has learned a lot from dealing with people, she glanced at Qin Yunuan, her eyebrows flashed with a momentary light, but she immediately gathered it again, and took the opportunity to take the opportunity of the incense burner handed by the little maid to step into the pavilion, and pretended to light a soothing cold incense beside the old lady, while whispering into the old lady's ear: "The third young grandmother said that she should wait at the door." ”

For a long time, there was no sound.

Xia Feng came with water vapor, and it took a long time to hear a whisper from the old lady who should have fallen asleep a long time ago: "Then let her wait, I want to see how long she can wait for her younger brother." ”

The scorching sun is scorching, don't say that Qin Yunuan is a beautiful lady who stays in the boudoir every day, even those farmers in the manor on the outskirts of Beijing dare not be exposed to the sun in such weather, although the small pavilion is adjacent to the lotus pond and the wind is blowing, it is very cool, but it can't stand the scorching sun at noon The heat is dissipated like a frenzy overhead, and soon, Qin Baochuan's complexion is a little strange, and his little hands are also hot and cold.

"Baochuan?" Qin Yunuan lowered her voice and called Qin Baochuan's name softly, in fact, she herself began to feel uncomfortable chest tightness, "Isn't it uncomfortable?" Why don't you go back to the yard with Sister Man'er first, and Sister will come over in a while. ”

"Don't," Qin Baochuan stubbornly cheered up, "Baochuan wants to wait with his sister, although Baochuan is not as powerful as his brother-in-law and can't protect his sister in times of danger, but Baochuan is also willing to take on the responsibility with his sister." ”

"Silly boy." Qin Yunuan touched Qin Baochuan's head, pulled his completely sweaty forehead hair behind for him, and took out a sweat towel to carefully wipe the bean-sized beads of sweat on his forehead for Qin Baochuan.

Time passed slowly, and the incense cakes in the incense burner were about to burn out, just when Qin Yunuan felt that the dizziness was getting more and more serious, the cicada finally opened the bead curtain and came out, and saluted Qin Yunuan and said, "Third young grandmother, the old lady woke up, and shouted to the third young grandmother to go in and talk." ”

Although the forehead behind her was full of sweat, Qin Yunuan still maintained a generous and dignified nod to the cicada, her spine was also straight, and she still maintained elegance and virtue between her gestures.

The old lady looked at Qin Yunuan leading Baochuan over, and showed a peaceful smile that made people unable to distinguish between truth and falsehood: "When people are old, they are easy to get sleepy, and this sleep, there is no one, and you have been waiting for a long time?" ”

"Soon." Qin Yunuan lowered her head and smiled gently.

The old lady snorted coldly, she had already been named Mrs. Dexian when she married into Ning Wangfu, plus the Zhenguo Mansion has always been full of confidence, although the people are thin, and no son can inherit the incense, but there is a queen mother, and a Ning princess makes the Ge family's waist straight, so the old lady of Ning Wangfu is not afraid of anything, her speech is also sharp, and her wrists are even sharper.

"Are you thinking in your heart, you finally climbed to the identity of a five-grade county lord but didn't expect to be wronged and wait here, if it was someone else, you would have lifted the curtain and shouted people, if it wasn't for something to ask for, who would be willing to suffer this wronged?" The old lady bowed her head and said coldly, while tasting the Biluochun with just the right temperature.

Qin Yunuan was slightly stunned, but then her heart was extremely clear, the idea that the old lady said would indeed be the inner activity that most women would have.

"Yu Nuan doesn't have such thoughts." Qin Yunuan didn't argue much, just bowed his head and replied.

The old lady slowly raised her eyebrows, and the look in her eyes seemed to be questioning.

Qin Yunuan blessed her body, and then said: "Because Yu Nuan knew from the beginning that the old lady was pretending to be asleep, the old lady thought that she was testing Yu Nuan, but in fact, Yu Nuan also wanted to see, in the old lady's mind, how long Yu Nuan is worthy of dealing with the old lady, when Yu Nuan waited, the pillar of the pavilion was about a finger offset, about an hour, Yu Nuan can be worth an hour in the old lady's heart, and thank the old lady for lifting up." ”

Sentence by sentence, Qin Yunuan's intelligence and cleverness are undoubtedly exposed, you must know that outsiders say that the reason why the old lady of Ning Wangfu and Princess Ning can get along harmoniously is that Princess Ning is simple and pure enough, so as not to steal the limelight of the old lady.

But which smart person doesn't want to meet a confidant, especially a woman like the old lady and the queen mother, who has been in the wind for most of her life, and bravely broke through the shackles of this dynasty on women, in her heart, she is even more eager for a person similar to herself to appear, and Qin Yunuan has grasped this characteristic and successfully attracted the attention of the old lady.

The old lady frowned slightly, it seems that this concubine is more complicated than she knew before, in the past, listening to Dou's crying in front of her, she only thought that this concubine only knew how to be cruel and obscene pickling methods, the last time she saw it in the Taiwei Mansion, she clearly saw that it was Qin Yunuan's strategy, although it was disgraceful, but the effect was good, and to this day, Qin Yunuan has been waiting under the sun for so long, and she can also explain her purpose in one word, it seems that there are more places to dig in this concubine.

"Did you know that people who are too smart sometimes think they are smart?" The old lady squinted at Qin Yunuan, Qin Yunuan was a little like when she was young, bold, indifferent, and seemed to be able to deal with everything.

Qin Yunuan smiled clearly: "Yu Nuan only knows that her fate has to be fought for by herself, the cicadas here are so noisy, how can the old lady who loves cleanliness sleep, since the old lady wants to test Yu Nuan, Yu Nuan willingly accepts the test, as long as the old lady is willing to let Yu Nuan in in the end and admits that Yu Nuan has passed the test, it's okay." ”

A casual smile rose at the corner of the old lady's mouth, but the expression on her whole face was still condensed, and she only glanced at Qin Baochuan lightly: "This is your younger brother in the Qin family?" ”

When Qin Baochuan heard this, he immediately stepped forward and saluted, "Baochuan has seen the old lady. "The voice is loud and full of energy.

But the old lady suddenly turned her head and said expressionlessly: "He can't stay in King Ning's Mansion." ”
