Chapter 185: Bull Ghost Snake God
The hall was very spacious, with exquisite furnishings and ornate decorations, and the people sitting in the hall all had detached but polite smiles on their faces, except for Old Lady Zhao and the three people who had just spoken, including Zhao Hongyi, Zhao Jing's nominal father.
He looked at his eldest son's eyes with a touch of emotion that people couldn't see through and guess, and stared at Zhao Jing to lower his head.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Qin Yuru found a place to speak: "Rong Zhi, since the old lady has spoken, there is no need to say these words when you are late, let's see the courtesy!" That's a nice thing to say, but it doesn't stand up to scrutiny.
It seems that Zhao Jing and Qi Yunshu have been delayed by an hour, but they are deliberately reminding everyone that they are waiting for this hour in vain.
The people who listened to it couldn't help but feel a little dislike for their husband and wife.
met with everyone in the Zhao Mansion one by one, during which Zhao Jing and his wife gave the elders a special meeting gift prepared for them.
Mama Liu acted steadily, was very familiar with the temperament and temper of the people in the Zhao Mansion, and had Qi Yunshu on her side, so the gifts she prepared were not outstanding, but she could not find any mistakes.
The old lady loves tea, and what she gave to the old lady was a jar of tea that was personally picked and fried by Qi Yunshu in the hot spring Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs of the city. Mr. Zhao loves to collect books, and what he gave him was a solitary book that Zhao Jing had copied after asking Mr. Xia's consent.
Qin Yuru loves jewelry, there is no way to satisfy this, anyway, the two parties do not agree, she can't like anything she buys, so she bought a silver hairpin in Zhenyu Pavilion.
As for Zhao Qian, the sister-in-law under Qin Yuru's knees, he gave a wolf hair with exquisite workmanship, and his sister-in-law Zhao Yun'er is a waist badge accessory that looks very dexterous, which is a gadget and is worthless, but it is better to be delicate and good-looking.
Old lady Zhao sat on it but was satisfied, he felt that Zhao Jing was at least attentive.
In addition to Mrs. Zhao and the people in the big house, there are also people in the second and third rooms of the Zhao family who are present today.
The second room sits opposite the big room, it looks like the people are thriving, and when they pull a long line, the people in the first room catch up with the people in the big room and the third room combined.
Qi Yunshu had already been informed by Mama Liu, and bought a gift with reference to the big house, following the principle of inexpensive but meaningful. I also dealt with this matter.
It's just that it was sent to the end, but I didn't see anyone in the fourth room.
Qi Yunshu clearly remembered that Mama Liu had popularized the situation of the Zhao Mansion with her before entering the mansion.
Mrs. Zhao has a total of four sons, two concubines and two concubines, and now there are only three rooms, but there is a four-room difference.
Old lady Zhao explained casually, the fourth uncle is sick and it is not suitable to see guests.
After Qi Yunshu met the elders and peers here, he also received gifts from them.
However, Qi Yunshu had a heavy task at this time, so she didn't care about those gifts, and just looked at them at a glance, they were all ordinary objects, or food, or clothing, and there were red envelopes directly.
After the meeting, it was Zhao Hongyi's birthday.
Although it is not a big thing to scatter longevity, but the door of Zhao Mansion is high, and the etiquette that should be there is naturally no shortage at all.
However, because Mrs. Zhao is an elder, there is no need to pay homage to his birthday, give gifts, and simply say some auspicious words.
The birthday gift that Zhao Jing prepared for Zhao Hongyi was a clay inkstone, and speaking of which, this inkstone was brought by the lady for him.
It is said that it took a lot of thought.
Zhao Qian saw the gift he sent, his eyes on his elegant face were slightly raised, and his eyebrows were lowered.
Wild seeds in the countryside can actually get such a good thing!
Seeing that his emotions were out of control for a moment, Qin Yuru on the side immediately turned him with his elbow, and a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Zhao Qian was stunned for a moment, and Qin Yuru gave him a reassuring smile.
Zhao Qian reacted, immediately restrained the strangeness, and turned to say loudly: "The Chengni inkstone from the Yellow River, this is a masterpiece!" ”
According to ancient records, the texture of Chengni inkstone is delicate, just like the skin of a baby, and it has the ability to store water without drying up, experience cold without ice, ink without damage, and moisturize and win water.
He has won many praises among the literati and students of Daliang.
"This item is extremely rare, and the best quality is even more difficult to find. You...... How did Big Brother get it? Zhao Jing's more than 20 years of experience fell into Zhao Gan's eyes, and he concluded that he couldn't get this thing with Zhao Jing's skills.
Even if you see it, you can't afford it.
This thing is as priceless as jade!
Zhao Jingwen smiled: "There is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of people with hearts!" He knew that this object was precious, but when he said this, it seemed that it was a little too precious, he couldn't help but look at Qi Yunshu, and he didn't know what means the lady used to get it!
Zhao Hongyi, who received his beloved thing, glanced thoughtfully at this eldest son, who had not been seen for more than 20 years.
He is very tall, which is very similar to him, with a handsome face and a modest posture, like an elegant gentleman, which seems to be like him!
"Okay, you are here early in the morning, I'm afraid you're tired, before the banquet comes up, you all go back to the house to freshen up, and put the things in your hands on your clothes!"
Old lady Zhao stopped everyone.
Anyway, he was very satisfied with the performance of Zhao Jing and his wife today.
He had deliberately not let his old men remind Zhao Jing and Qi Yunshu of the preferences of everyone in the mansion, but he didn't expect that this little couple would be able to inquire so much on their own, and they would do things so far, not bad! He stroked his beard and nodded.
Basically because of this satisfaction, he was willing to speak out to protect them.
The old lady spoke, and who else dared to say more, and all of them took the family out.
After leaving the main courtyard and passing the Moon Cave Gate, far away from the main courtyard, Qi Yunshu was just about to talk to Zhao Jing, when he heard movement behind him, he turned around and saw a middle-aged woman dressed in jewels coming up and laughing: "Is Yunshu not, the material you sent is from Nishang Pavilion, my aunt likes it very much!" ”
"It's good if the second aunt likes it!" Qi Yunshu recognized her as Pu Shi, the mother of the second house, and politely bowed.
The second room is not compatible with the big room, and Qin Yuru and the Pu family do not deal with each other, this is an open secret of the Zhao Mansion.
At present, as Zhao Jing's wife, the nominal big house, she really doesn't have too much contact with the second room.
Besides, the process just went down, and it took more than an hour, and it was almost noon at this time, and the banquet would soon be held.
They haven't decided where to live yet, but they're in a hurry at the moment.
"Go northwest, there is a little corner for you...... Hey, I don't know what Qin Yuru thinks, you are a serious eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law, why did she let you live there! The key old lady actually agreed! Pu complained dissatisfiedly for them.
Listening to that tone is extremely sincere, if Qi Yunshu is a little younger, I'm afraid she will have to follow her words.
She didn't have the heart to calculate like this, and with the tip of her ears, she had already heard a familiar voice behind her.
"Yo, the second brother and sister are here, you, the aunt, care about them more than me, the mother, this is really their luck!" Qin Yuru came, and as soon as she arrived, she looked at the three of them with a smile.
The second aunt Pu was used to playing in the ring with her, and she was not afraid of her at all, but went up to add fuel and vinegar:
"You guys are so good, but you don't have to be polite with the second aunt!"
Pu Shi said with a sharp turn of words: "Madame is in charge of the stewardship of the entire Zhao Mansion, and she wants to be busy with affairs, and she can't think of reconciling you for a while, but you must not worry about Madame, do you know?" ”
Zhao Jing pulled Qi Yunshu to respond, Pu Shi waved his handkerchief and glanced at the three people in front of him, and turned around with a laugh.
Qin Yuru saw that the Pu family was no longer surrounding Zhao Jing, where was she still in the mood to accompany them to wander around, and immediately beckoned Mama Wang, who led the way first, to let her lead them.
arrived at the small courtyard where he settled, and sure enough, it was in the northwest corner of Zhao's mansion,
On the way there, Qi Yunshu always felt that someone was staring at them, but when she looked back, there was no one. When she was about to enter the door, she suddenly glanced back and caught a head that she couldn't take back before the moon cave door.
He belonged to Zhao Jing's nominal cousin, Zhao Hui.
was seen through, he was not afraid, but simply dodged out generously, his eyebrows fell down, the corners of his mouth raised, and he smiled sneeringly.
Qi Yunshu's heart jumped, and she looked at him several times in a row.
How do you look at it, how do you feel that there is a conspiracy in his eyes.
But he didn't come forward either, just stared at it from afar.
The couple couldn't do anything they wanted, so they had to change their clothes according to the original plan, so that they could rush to Zhao Hongyi's birthday banquet.
Before he walked into the room, Zhao Jing's face suddenly turned red.
Qi Yunshu was startled, thinking that his poison was diseased, and hurriedly grabbed his wrist to check the pulse.
Zhao Jing shook his head and gritted his teeth, squeezing out a sentence from between his teeth: "No...... No, it's wrong, there's something wrong with me, lady, you...... Are you okay? ”
