Chapter 130: Gift-giving
Sui Yiyi put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth with satisfaction, and sighed again: "It's so delicious!" ”
Qi Hengchuan looked at the disc action on the table, smiled with satisfaction, and reached out to pat Sui Yiyi's head, "It's delicious, I'll make it for you next time I have a chance." ”
Sui Yiyi only glanced up at Qi Hengchuan, felt his gentle eyes, chuckled in her heart, felt that her heart was beating a little fast, and she didn't dare to make more eye contact with him, so she took the initiative to avoid it.
Sui Yiyi got up, cleaned up the dishes with Qi Hengchuan, and the two walked back to their respective rooms together.
Before Sui Yiyi entered the door, Qi Hengchuan called out to her, "There are still some follow-up matters that have not yet been dealt with, tomorrow I will ask Dongming to come and pick you up and set off with me, you rest early, see you tomorrow." ”
Sui Yiyi nodded, "Okay, I've worked hard for you tonight, and you can rest early, see you tomorrow." ”
Early the next morning, Chunzhi prepared hot water early and waited for Sui Yiyi to finish washing. At this time, Xia Ling came over with a set of skirts and unfolded it for Sui Yiyi to see.
"Miss, this is the clothes that the prince asked Dongming to send over early in the morning, saying that the flood is no longer a big problem, and there is no hurry to hurry for the past two days, Miss doesn't have to work hard to wear men's clothes again, you can change back into women's clothes."
Sui Yiyi thought for a while, although it would not be noticeable to wear men's clothes when accompanying Qi Hengchuan to go out on errands, but in order to prevent anyone from plotting misdeeds like Zhao Ming, it was better for him to appear next to him in women's clothes.
What Qi Hengchuan sent was a moon-white short-sleeved shirt with a round neck, with a lilac phoenix tail skirt, and a half-open gardenia was embroidered at the end of the phoenix tail skirt, and a short lilac embroidered cape was worn outside, and a circle of gardenias was also embroidered on the cloak.
Although the color of this dress is light, it shows Sui Yiyi's complexion, which makes her skin more and more fair and moving.
Although the gardenia embroidery is small, it is better than the simple and elegant look, especially the narrow sleeve design of the short shirt Sui Yiyi likes it very much, especially suitable for his hand activities without feeling inconvenient.
After Sui Yiyi changed her clothes, Chunzhi and Xia Ling took turns to change their tricks and praised how the clothes looked good, how the young lady was fairy, etc., so that Sui Yiyi's thick old face began to reveal a circle of pink before they hurriedly stopped the two.
Rao is like this, Sui Yiyi is still quite happy. Sure enough, it's a thousand clothes, and the sycophants don't wear it!
When Qi Hengchuan came to pick up Sui Yiyi, his eyes stayed on Sui Yiyi's body for a long time, and then leaned over and whispered in Sui Yiyi's ear: "My vision is really right, purple is very suitable for you." ”
Sui Yiyi squinted and smiled, nodding very favorably, "I think so too." ”
The two got into the carriage under the service of their subordinates, and went to the place where the drainage canal was built in Lizhou City, supervised the construction process, and guided the improvement of the drainage canal.
Qi Hengchuan once again explained that Xu Zhiyuan had to complete the construction task on time, and hinted that the account of delaying the process had not been settled with him before, and if the work was not done, he would wait to return to the capital to face the saint.
Xu Zhiyuan was so frightened that his legs trembled, and he only promised to complete the task on time and in quantity, and then returned to the capital to ask the prince for his guilt.
Seeing that the construction of the project was carried out in an orderly manner, after explaining the work of his subordinates, Qi Hengchuan took Sui Yiyi back to his house.
Back in the house, Qi Hengchuan and Sui Yiyi and others were enjoying the flowers and drinking tea in the garden, Sui Yiyi was explaining the details of the invention of the drainage canal to Qi Hengchuan, and at this time the next person came to report, saying that Chen Yunjing, the daughter of the local county magistrate, asked to see him.
Qi Hengchuan had seen this Chen Yunjing.
When he first came to Lizhou City before, Qi Hengchuan went to the local county magistrate Chen Qingshan because of the flood, and at that time, this Chen Qingshan also did his best to help a lot, and before leaving, Chen Yunjing came out to send Qi Hengchuan and gave him some small gifts.
Chen Yunjing also spent a lot of thought collecting these exquisite little gifts, but his mind was not pure, the essence was to befriend Qi Hengchuan and shorten the distance between him and Qi Hengchuan, how could he not know this.
Qi Hengchuan couldn't refuse in front of the county magistrate, after all, he was the county magistrate who helped him a lot when he first came to the local area, so he didn't say much and accepted Chen Yunjing's gift. But as soon as he returned home, Qi Hengchuan sent the gift to the people below.
Qi Hengchuan thought very clearly, first, he didn't want to have anything to do with other women; Second, officials should not blatantly accept bribes, even if they are just gadgets; Third, it can also be used to reward those who have worked hard for the flood and buy people's hearts.
This plan can be described as killing three birds with one stone, Qi Hengchuan thought that there was nothing likely to be seen again in the future, but he didn't expect that this Chen Yunjing would take the initiative to come to the door again.
Chen Yunjing was brought to the garden by his subordinates, and when he saw Qi Hengchuan, he saluted, "Chen Yunjing has seen adults." ”
Qi Hengchuan didn't have too much expression, his fingers held the teacup and didn't put it down, "Miss Chen is exempt." ”
Chen Yunjing got up after hearing the sound, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Sui Yiyi, who was sitting next to Qi Hengchuan in purple clothes, holding a tea cup and drinking tea.
Chen Yunjing muttered in her heart, it seems that the news she has heard in the past few days is not false, an official sent down to the barracks to deal with the flood, and he actually brought a woman with him in a grand manner to relieve the disaster, which is really ** heart-wrenching.
Thinking so in her heart, Chen Yunjing unconsciously carried a trace of disdain on her face.
Qi Hengchuan put down the teacup, and without looking at Chen Yunjing, he asked, "Miss Chen came this time, why did you come here?" ”
Chen Yunjing thought for a while and replied slowly: "A few days ago, I said goodbye to the adults in a hurry, and I didn't know if the flood was successfully resolved, and the little girl was very worried. In the past few days, I heard that the disaster relief has basically stabilized, so the little girl wanted to come over to visit the adults, and by the way, see if the small gifts she gave to the adults before were in line with the adults' wishes. ”
Qi Hengchuan lifted the lid of the tea, took a sip of tea, and his voice was cold, "Those ......"
When Sui Yiyi heard this, she raised her eyes and glanced at Qi Hengchuan, and was wondering when Qi Hengchuan had received a gift from a beautiful woman in private, so she heard Qi Hengchuan say slowly: "Those things that Miss Chen gave to the official before, the official came back to think about it, and it was really useless, so he decided to give it to the brothers below who worked hard for this flood." ”
Sui Yiyi originally took a sip of tea into her throat, but when she heard that Qi Hengchuan was so direct and didn't give the beauty a trace of face, she was immediately choked by the tea, and the tea squirted out along with the tea, and most of it was sprayed on the faces of those Chen girls.
Sui Yiyi laughed out loud without any image, put down the teacup and bowed her head to laugh at her belly, she really couldn't stand Qi Hengchuan's serious rejection of people thousands of miles away.
Chen Yunjing heard Qi Hengchuan's answer, she couldn't get off the stage, who would have thought that she would suddenly be sprayed with tea and tea all over her face, and when she heard that the woman who was taken to serve the warm bed by her side dared to laugh at herself, she suddenly turned red with anger, and raised her hand to let the family behind her step forward.
"Someone! Arrest this servant girl who dares to commit a crime to Miss Ben! ”
