Chapter 3: This man is like Aunt Wang
Qiao Yu stared at Yu Qingtan's hand that handed the peach blossom for a long time, and always felt that her hand was like the tip of a bud that had just emerged in spring, slender and long, and it looked better than the peach blossom.
"Ahem~"
Seeing that his master was a little distracted, Mu Mu coughed twice.
Qiao Yu moved his gaze to the peach blossom, pointed to a peach blossom that was missing a petal, raised his eyebrows and said, "This flower is broken."
Yu Qingtan hurriedly plucked the flower from the branches and handed it over again, "It's complete now!" ”
Qiao Yu stretched out his hand to take the peach blossom, looked at it carefully for a moment, and then handed it to Yu Qingtan: "This one is a bit of a sudden."
Yu Qingtan took the flower and plucked the flower.
"And this one, both of which have lost two petals!"
Yu Qingtan felt that the man in front of him was a bit like Aunt Wang, who was in charge of sweeping in their house.
Suppressing the impatience in his heart, Yu Qingtan handed the peach blossom branch to Qiao Yu again, and asked without waiting for him to speak: "Dare to ask Master Hou if he can reduce some silver taels?"
"Seeing that Miss Yu is so sincere... Mumu, you can erase that fragment. After Qiao Yu finished speaking to Mu Mu quite magnificently, he turned around and waved his wide sleeves, leaving Yu Qingtan who was messy in the wind.
Yu Qingtan tugged at the corners of his mouth, sighed lightly, ignored Pei Bei behind him, and returned to the house with Liuying.
As soon as I returned home, the people from the waiting house came.
"Miss, we've been cheated!" Liuying gritted her teeth and looked at the wood in the flower hall holding a white jade teacup and looking at it carefully.
Yu Qingtan was helpless, although there was some money in the family, but there was not much inventory, after all, his father was famous, if he gave this money to Qiao Yu, the family would have a lot of money.
That peach tree, it's really not worth cutting down!
Liuying watched as the subordinates in the mansion carried the silver out of the mansion, and the green sparrow with the missing tail walked in front of her and the young lady with its head held high, and her teeth itched with anger!
Seeing that Liuying couldn't hold her breath so much, Yu Qingtan stretched out her hand to smooth Liuying's breath: "Today, let's break the fortune and eliminate the disaster."
"The next time he meets this person again, the slave will definitely make him unhappy!" Hotaru looked at the door hatefully.
Yu Qingtan shook his head, turned around and walked to the cattery in the small courtyard.
This is a chrysanthemum-white cat she picked up in front of the house a few days ago, at this time it was curled up and sleeping soundly, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it, and couldn't help but say to Liuying: "I want to give this cat a name, you say, okay?"
"What do you want to name it?"
Yu Qingtan thought for a moment, "Let's call it a slave!" ”
"Huh?" Liuying blinked, isn't this name the same as the name of the pet who passed away in Yongchang Houjia?
Yu Qingtan asked again in a blink of an eye: "Haven't you found a suitable person for the slave?"
"Well, not yet, since you named the cat, leave it behind." Liu Hotaru could see that Miss liked this cat quite a lot.
Yu Qingtan pondered for a moment, "Okay, it can be regarded as having a relationship with me." ”

Inside the Flower Hall
Mu Mu counted the silver taels sent from Taifu's Mansion, and his eyes narrowed into a slit.
After counting, Mu Mu ran to Qiao Yu with a smile: "Master, it's just seven thousand two hundred taels."
"Hmm~ Yes, it's coming in again today!" Qiao Yu held one hand and pretended to sleep, and with the other hand, he touched the black cat on his lap.
Mu Mu remembered the girl he saw outside the Guyuan Temple today, and couldn't help but say loudly: "This maid next to Miss Yu has a very powerful mouth."
"Well, the old fox probably didn't expect that his daughter liked Ben Hou."
Mu Mu continued to recall: "But it's not bad, smart and cute."
"Well, it's true that I didn't look like that old fox!" After that, he added: "Especially those beautiful eyes." After speaking, Qiao Yu opened his eyes and looked at the raccoon dog snoring on his lap, and closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
The more Mu Mu listened, the more wrong he became, and he asked cautiously: "Master, didn't you fall in love with that Miss Yu?"
"The old fox's daughter, I'm not very interested, but ...... The character is quite fun! ”
Mu Mu rolled his eyes: "If you want to think it's fun, you can also bring it back to the house to play."
"The old fox knows, I'm afraid I'm going to tear off the roof of Benhou, but ......" Qiao Yu suddenly opened his eyes, thought of something, and his expression became solemn.
Mu Mu frowned, "Master, what's wrong?" ”
"I just figured it out when I was waiting for Japan, someone wanted to borrow this wait, let the old fox go into the water, and spend the old fox in the capital!" Qiao Yu gently put the raccoon on his leg aside.
Mu Mu pondered: "Well, the person behind that is really hateful, you can't fall for that person."
Qiao Yu frowned and thought for a while, "That person felt Ben Hou's character so clearly, so he expected that Ben Hou would not care about this idle matter." ”
"What about you...... Anyway? ”
Qiao Yu hooked his lips, walked back to the Taishi chair and picked up the raccoon, and carefully touched the round hair on the raccoon.
After looking at the raccoon for a while, he said: "Recently, the raccoon seems to be in estrus, so I have to find a partner for it as soon as possible!"
"It's still thoughtful and thoughtful!"
Mu Mu looked at the black cat curled up comfortably on Hou Ye's lap with some jealousy, he has been a weak crown for five or six years, and he doesn't see Ye find him a partner......
Seeing that his Hou Ye bypassed what he had just said, Mu Mu didn't mention it again.
Next
Taifu Mansion
In the study, Yu Qingtan sorted out the orchid picture he had just drawn, and some things from his previous life suddenly flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
At this time in the previous life, my father was sent to Tongzhou to control the water, and the emperor took this opportunity to stuff a county lord to his brother, and after his brother married the county lord, he was troubled every day, and the county lord was not only jealous, but also had an affair with his subordinates!
Due to His Majesty's marriage, his brother was not good at His Majesty's face, so he had no choice but to send him to a nunnery, and he also occupied the status of his brother's wife, which led to his brother never marrying.
Thinking of this, Yu Qingtan called the picture screen.
"Recently, my father left Beijing, I'm afraid that there will be a villain, you run errands for me and tell my brother, let him be more careful, especially ...... The man above! ”
The picture screen widened her eyes: "Miss is talking about ......"
Yu Qingtan looked down: "There is such a catastrophe in the family, it should be that my father was plotted by a villain."
She didn't know who had killed them, but she knew who could save them!
In his previous life, not long after his father came back from Tongzhou, he was seriously ill because of the emperor's marriage, and he removed his right-hand man.
Before she was about to be immersed in the pig cage, she heard that the second prince rebelled, Qiao Yi protected the emperor, and the emperor learned that he was terminally ill, so he entrusted the six princes to him and named Qiao Yi as the regent.
Qiao Yi sent someone to find a doctor for his father, and brought his father, who was originally demoted to resign, to the court again.
Dad hurriedly ran to confront Qiao Yu, but Qiao Yu only said one sentence: Even if you die, you can only be angry with me in the court.
Later, my father knew that she was not happy and wanted her to leave. But I didn't expect to see her framed with my own eyes, my father carried a knife to take her back but was stopped, and my father had just been reinstated and had not been reported, and was stopped on the shore by those cold-blooded people......
At the end of her death, she lost consciousness and saw Qiao Yu walking towards her in the water......
If she guessed correctly, he should have gone to collect her body.
Qiao Yi is also both righteous and evil, but at the last moment, she protected her father and collected her body!
So she's sure that Daddy is useful to him!
In this case, she has a bargaining chip to save her life! She can no longer let her father suffer from the pain and depreciation of those more than ten years.
After the screen left, it was already dark.
The fog was thick and it was raining lightly.
Yu Qingtan hugged the quilt and turned it over and over, but it was difficult to sleep.
This can be regarded as her distress after being reborn, waking up from nightmares every night, the pain of drowning and suffocation, and the almost crazy and distorted ridicule on Pei Bei's face, which made Yu Qingtan remember it vividly.
She dreamed every night that the ghosts and snakes were chasing her, and the three-headed and six-armed ghosts were wrapped around her, pulling her and sinking her head to the bottom of the river.
Occasionally, a crimson figure would appear in her dreams, the corners of her clothes fluttering, driving away the ghosts for her.
Vertical day
As soon as the painting screen returned home, he hurriedly came to Yu Qingtan's bedroom.
"Miss, the eldest young master is back, he has already gone to the palace at this time, and he will return to the palace after seeing His Majesty."
Yu Qingtan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Then if I asked you to bring it, did you bring it?"
"The slave has been delivered, and this time when I returned home, the eldest young master also brought back a girl named Ning Ling, I heard from the people who accompanied the army that her brother died on the battlefield to save our eldest young master, and later entrusted Gu to our eldest young master."
Yu Qingtan couldn't help but nodded with some sympathy, "It turns out that her life is so miserable, that girl's brother sacrificed his life to save my brother, and I, as a younger sister, have to be grateful to her for my brother!" You send someone to settle her, send some snacks for this girl to cushion her belly, and I will go to the kitchen to cook some food, and I should thank my brother for it. ”
After Yu Qingtan finished speaking, he walked quickly to the kitchen.
In addition to the study, the most place she spends at home on weekdays is the kitchenette.
Dad often praised her cooking skills, and she occasionally cooked some meals and pastries herself, which was the right to cultivate her body and mind.
