In the wing room at the other end of Tanghua Courtyard, Qingchun has returned to Qi's meditation room after delivering pastries.

Qi Shi heard the footsteps, slowly put down the rosary in his hand, opened his eyes slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Have you sent all the snacks?" ”

Qingchun responded in a crisp voice, and seeing that Qi was about to get up, he went over and hugged her steadily.

After Qi got up, he led Qingchun out of the meditation room with pressed steps, came to the stool in the center of the guest hall and sat down, and then looked at Qingchun and asked, "How is it, Ning'er and the Tao family's Jiuniang get along well, and there is no dispute, right?" ”

Qingchun nodded and replied: "When the slave maid entered, Yiniang's demeanor was not unusual, and she was talking to Wanniang and Tao Jiuniang of Jingzhao Mansion, but Wanniang looked a little displeased. ”

"Hey", Qi sighed lightly: "It's also embarrassing for Ning'er, I was humiliated by Yuanbai's child in the morning, and before I could get my breath, the girl from the Tao family came over again." ”

"Will Yiniang ...... this time", Qingchun stared at Qi with concern.

Qi smiled calmly, and shook his head slightly: "I think that Ning'er is very different from before this time, her second aunt has been tricky so many times that Ning'er can tolerate the past, Tao Jiuniang is just an outsider, just using some obscure words to stimulate her a few words, but she doesn't dare to come nonsense." ”

Qingchun nodded again: "I think it was Yiniang who walked away in the ghost gate this time, thinking that Mrs. was lonely and helpless, and didn't want you to be sad and sad anymore, so she became so forbearant and knowledgeable." ”

"It's really bitter for her", Qi's heart suddenly swelled with a sourness, and the area around his eyes gradually moistened.

Qingchun looked distressed, hurriedly took a handkerchief and handed it to her, and said with warm relief: "Madame doesn't have to be sad, the slave maid looks at Yiniang this time has really changed, and you can worry less in the future, Qi Erniang is the most painful for Yiniang, and she will definitely find a good husband for Yiniang, and then Mrs. will wait to enjoy the blessings." ”

"I hope so", Qi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said worriedly: "At present, the situation of the Su family is difficult, the Tao family and Jingzhao Mansion are both people who can't be provoked, Thirteen Niang is the most fond of fighting, looking at Ning Er pitiful, she used to love her, then Tao Jiuniang chose this time to come to visit, this little girl's mind is not ordinary." ”

"The slave maid thinks that Yiniang handled it very well", Qingchun looked at her and said cautiously: "The slave maid heard from Alai that the second lady stopped the guqin that Wanniang gave to Yiniang, and the second lady was still waiting for Yiniang to make trouble with Wanniang in the past, but Yiniang not only was not angry, but also suppressed Wanniang's anger." ”

"This Saturday Mother", Qi slowly frowned, both relieved and at the same time a little annoyed rising in his heart.

"So Madame, please relax", Qingchun swore and said: "The slave maid thinks that Yiniang will be able to appease the two living Bodhisattvas, even if there is really some dispute, it is not too late for Madame to go over, after all, they are all juniors, and Madame is not easy to mix." ”

Qi nodded slightly, pursed his lips, his eyes sunken, and did not speak again.

……

Li Wanwan listened to Tao Jiuniang's words, and felt very angry, she was just the daughter of a concubine in a mere businessman's family, she was so ashamed to say that she was not really talented and learned, and even Su Ning'er was so contemptuous.

Such a posture of no one in his eyes and self-esteem is really arrogant, if he didn't really have no pen and ink, he really wanted to fight back against her.

Holding back the fire and glancing at Suning on the side, Li Wanwan was even more angry, this dead girl was stunned there calmly, as if she hadn't heard Tao Jiuniang's provocative words at all.

Biting the corner of her lower lip hard, Li Wanwan hated that iron could not become steel, shook Suning's arm heavily, and said loudly: "Yiniang, didn't you just say that you wanted to write a poem for me to deal with the poetry meeting?" ”

"Me?" , Suning blinked, deliberately put on an innocent face and said, "I, I won't." ”

"Haha", Tao Jiuniang unconsciously hid her face and chuckled: "Why should Thirteen Niang go to embarrass Sister Ning'er, do you think it is a shame to take my poems to perfunctory the matchmaker, in fact, you can rest assured, since I promised you, naturally I will not inform the matchmaker about this." ”

As she spoke, she took out a rolled paper tube directly from her sleeve, put it on the table and spread it out by herself, and said proudly: "If Thirteen Niang really disdains to use my poems to make errands, then I can only help Sister Ning'er alone." Actually, I have already prepared for Sister Ning'er, although it is a little vulgar, but it is better than staring at the poetry meeting and being anxious. ”

Suning picked up the page of rice paper, spread it in his hand and looked at it casually, only to see that the beginning of the first page was written in Juan Xiu's italics: "Last night's rain sparse last night's wind, and the fragments of the sand entered the city......."

Hey, I have been in this Chang'an City for more than a month, every day is the scorching sun, and I don't know which "there was rain last night", since it has rained, how can it roll up the wild sand, when did the weather in Chang'an become so bad, it seems that the ancients wrote poems are not all feelings.

"It's a good poem, Jiuniang is really a good writer", Suning pursed her lips and smiled, and then handed the rice paper to Li Wanwan: "So I really want to thank Jiuniang for her kindness, but I didn't plan to go to the guild, so I will leave this poem to Wanniang." ”

Li Wanwan took the poem and looked at it silently, but heard Tao Jiuniang say in surprise: "Why didn't my sister go again, it's just such a good opportunity to go out and walk around, you shouldn't stuff yourself in this yard." ”

Suning squinted slightly, and said unintentionally: "It's just a lively scene, it will happen every year, it's better to stay at home and serve my mother this year." ”

"Hey", Tao Jiuniang sighed softly, probably thinking that she was because the divorce of Qingwangfu had not completely eased up: "Speaking of this, the second lady is too conceited, we are just the children of the Shangjia family, even if we have received some favors from the court, but compared to a family like Qingwangfu, it is always a little lowest, and the second lady should not have the intention of clinging, and blame me for not persuading my sister earlier." ”

Suning's calm face unconsciously showed a disapproving smile.

I don't know if this woman really doesn't know or pretends to be confused, this marriage with Qing Wangye was provoked by Qing Wangfu from beginning to end, and it was the Zhou family who made the decision without authorization, so what was the use of her persuading herself.

Besides, if it weren't for this marriage in Qingwangfu, where would Tao Jiuniang have the opportunity to marry Zhao Yuanbai.

Li Wanwan next to her was just quietly flipping through the pages of poems, and when she heard Tao Jiuniang's words, she deliberately raised her voice and read with interest: "Last night's rain sparsely sparsed last night's wind, and the remnants of the sand entered the city. The north looks bleak and there is a day, and the words are the most melancholy......."

Tao Jiuniang saw that she was reading it with such relish, and couldn't help but interrupt her with a chuckle: "It seems that Thirteen Niang is very satisfied with the answer sheet I prepared for you?" ”

"Oh", Li Wanwan snorted disdainfully, and then laughed dumbly.

Suning didn't understand what she meant, so she was silent and didn't dare to say anything.

In short, she has realized that no matter how Tao Jiuniang is, Wan Niang has no good face.

Tao Jiuniang sat upright and continued to say casually: "Yesterday I went to visit the matchmaker, I prepared two poems, but I never thought that the first one would be favored by the matchmaker, and said that in this year's women's poetry meeting, this will definitely win the first place." ”

"Heh", Li Wanwan laughed dryly, and simply threw the page of rice paper back on the table, her face was even more embarrassed: "Since it's all decided, you still send poems and texts to Yiniang, Tao Jiuniang, you really hide a good intention." ”

"Thirteen Niang's words can be wronged by the slave family", Tao Jiuniang's face was calm, and she was already a little displeased: "I never thought that the matchmaker would look up to me so highly, besides, Thirteen Niang, you have to make up the number after all, you learn the Cui family Shilang to dance the knife and get the gun all day long, and the slave family will relieve your worries for you at a critical time, how can you still complain about me, another poem, the matchmaker has not seen it, and when it comes to the guild, it is not necessary to say that the blue is not allowed." ”

She tried her best to explain, but the atmosphere in the room seemed to have reached a point where it was not harmonious.
