"Dad, mother!"

Pan Wugongzi looked at the Pan family and his wife excitedly, as if he had seen a savior, his eyes were bright.

The Pan family and his wife secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that their son was fine, and when their eyes looked at Liu Yingshuang, a surging hatred appeared in their eyes, and their eyes were hateful.

Willow, Ying, Frost.

It was Liu Yingshuang who harmed their Pan family like this!

Last time, the Pan family had offended Dongchang for the shop on Yijin Street, and now it is ......

Thinking about it, the Pan family and his wife just hate this son, if this rebel son was willing to listen to them last time, they would have taken Liu Yingshuang off early, and now there is no such thing.

Their Pan family can also completely dissociate themselves from the Wei family!

It's just that this rebel son was tricked by Liu Yingshuang, and he was infatuated with her, this Liu Yingshuang is like her aunt Liu Rong, they are all foxes, and they will hook men!

Master Pan squeezed out a smiling face, and politely apologized to Zhao Xunwen: "Lord Zhao, please Haihan." It's a dog. Master Pan pointed to the fifth son of Pan.

Zhao Xunwen smiled weirdly, and said: "Master Pan, this official is also on an errand, and those who should be distributed must be distributed, and those who should be sold must be 'sold'." ”

Zhao Xunwen deliberately increased the volume on "selling".

Master Pan immediately understood what Zhao Xunwen meant, and glanced at his own chief steward, who immediately took out two silver tickets from his arms and stuffed them to Zhao Xunwen.

Originally, according to the meaning of Master Pan and Mrs. Pan, they didn't want to bring Liu Yingshuang back at all.

But the problem is that their Pan family has not divorced their wives for a day, Liu Yingshuang is the Pan family, if Liu Yingshuang is sold into slavery at this time, it will be the face of the Pan family!

Almost as soon as she left the Wei family, Mrs. Pan had new hatred and old hatred together, and she didn't care about the people watching the excitement outside the gate, so she raised her hand and slapped Liu Yingshuang in the face.

"Smack!"

The crisp voice was loud and harsh.

Liu Yingshuang's face suddenly became red and swollen to half of the side, and it looked hideous and distorted.

Pan Wugongzi was very distressed, but he knew that her mother was still angry, and he didn't dare to intercede for Liu Yingshuang.

This time, Liu Yingshuang didn't dare to fight back at all.

She knew that her uncle was dead, and she had nothing to rely on.

Without Uncle Wei Yongxin, their Liu family is nothing!

Liu Yingshuang covered her red and swollen little face, lowered her head, and didn't dare to look directly at Mrs. Pan, her body trembled slightly almost invisibly.

Of course, this scene was also watched by those onlookers.

Passers-by pointed at them.

"Let's go!"

Mrs. Pan's face was pale, she threw up her sleeves and left, she immediately got into the carriage, Liu Yingshuang and Pan Wugongzi also got into the carriage, and the carriage of the Pan family galloped away.

Passers-by gathered at the gate of the Wei Mansion unsatisfied, discussing the affairs of Fang Cai, and one by one they were foaming at the mouth.

All kinds of gossip spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital in half a day, and the cicada who went out to buy snacks heard some more or less from the mouths of other guests in line, and said to Duanmu Fei with flying eyebrows.

As the saying goes, three people become tigers.

When the rumor reached Duanmufei's ears, it had already been exaggerated countless times, saying that Mrs. Pan chased Liu Yingshuang with a stick and scolded her for being a disaster.

Bi Cicada is also used as a fun for her own girl.

Duanmu Fei listened while shaving the little fox.

The weather was too hot, Duanmu Fei watched the little fox stick out his tongue all day long, and simply shaved the thick white hair on his body for it.

The little starling was also there, but he hid far away, stopped on a branch outside the window, and looked at Duanmu Fei with an almost frightened look, thinking that she was so terrible that she actually shaved the fox's hair.

From time to time, the little starling looked down at his black feathers and was relieved to make sure that its feathers were still there.

Bi Cicada looked at the little fox's appearance with a big head and a small body, and tried to hold back a smile, her small mouth tightened.

She didn't dare laugh.

In the Zhanqing Courtyard, no one knows that the little starling holds a grudge, and the little fox holds a grudge more than the little starling.

Duanmu put down the razor and touched the little fox's fluffy head, thinking that it was really good.

She gave the little fox a piece of melon to eat, and then ordered: "Bi Chan, you go and inquire, see when the Criminal Department will sell the Wei family's daughters, go say hello, and buy Wei Ruxian." ”

"Yes, girl." Bi Cicada bent her knees in response.

Thinking of Wei Ruxian, Duanmu Fei's expression was a little more sighing and sighing.

Outside the window, the shadows of the trees are waving, and the warm wind is gusting.

Duanmu Fei looked at the swaying shadows and light shadows, and couldn't help flashing some of the past events from three years ago in his mind.

"One person accidentally caused a lot of trouble and the ......," Duanmu murmured almost silently.

She and Wei Ruxian can also be regarded as acquaintances, and they can pull it.

The room was silent, and only the sound of the little starling flapping his wings outside the window sounded from time to time.

It looked at the little fox jealously, and wanted to eat the melon, but—

A mere melon can't let it sell its feathers!

This fox is so undisciplined!

The little starling looked at the little fox with a contemptuous expression and screamed twice.

The little fox slowly ate the last bite of the melon, and stuck out his pink tongue to lick his mouth and nose in satisfaction.

In the next moment, it suddenly turned into a white light, and it rushed out of the window like a lightning speed......

The eyes of the cicada could barely catch the figure of the little fox, and then I heard the little starling outside the window fall from the branch in fright, and then flapped his wings in embarrassment and flapped his wings and fled, screaming "quack" in his mouth.

The little fox followed in hot pursuit.

Bi Cicada was dumbfounded, and at this time, Duanmu Xuan came in with a complicated expression.

"Zhen Zhen, have you heard about the sale of the Wei family's daughters?"

Duanmujun's expression was a little subtle as he spoke, and he also saw the basket of white hair on the desk.

"Zhen Zhen, give me these fox furs of the dumplings," Duanmu Jun walked over to Duanmu Fei and sat down, "I want to make a fox doll with these fox furs." ”

Dango will definitely like it.

Duanmu hooked his lips and smiled, with a shallow smile on his face, and he didn't see the little starling in the distance being chased by the little fox and fleeing in a hurry, which can be described as a chicken feather.

Quiet inside the house and noisy outside.

The two little ones chased each other for an afternoon, and they "walked" around the corners of the house, and sometimes flashed like ghosts, and the people almost thought they were going to see a ghost in broad daylight.

The afternoon passed in the blink of an eye, and on this day, Duanmu Xian did not return from the palace until the sun set, and brought back a message to Duanmu Fei and Duanmu Heng-

"The emperor has finally agreed to Jun Shizi to go to the north!"

Duanmuxian was summoned to the palace by the emperor this morning.

Now that Wei Yongxin and Duanmufei's affairs have been clarified, Duanmuxian no longer needs to "avoid suspicion", and the emperor took advantage of the situation to cancel Duanmuxian's fake.

Duanmu Heng, who was sitting by the window, was stunned, and his face could not hide his surprise, but he immediately came back to his senses and sighed: "Grandfather, great! ”

Even Duanmu Xian looked emotional, took a sip of hot tea, and said with relief: "With King Jian's father and son here, the northern border should be fine." ”

Duanmu Fei was not surprised, raised his eyes to look at the silver crescent moon in the night sky, and remembered that when he and Jun Ran went to Huangjue Temple to pray for blessings that day, Feng Yan whispered to Jun Ran.

It seems that Feng Yan really found a "chance" for Junran.

The emperor was the most suspicious.

Now that Geng Anhao has been expelled from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, the emperor is bound to re-establish a person he feels credible.

At this time, the emperor was probably worried that Jun Ran would make trouble in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

But Jun Ran did not commit any crimes, nor was he connected, and the emperor was not easy to remove him rashly, plus King Jian was still on the front line in the north, at this time, he removed Jun Ran's post and passed it to the north, wouldn't it make King Jian think more? !

For the emperor, the most suitable way is to transfer Jun Ran far out of the capital, and it cannot be degraded.

I'm afraid that Cen Yin also beat a side drum on the emperor's side, making the emperor feel that it is the best choice to transfer Junran to the north.

Regardless of the process, the result is good.

Duanmu Fei also breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the Longjing tea beside him, and slowly sipped the tea.

Her opinion is the same as Duanmuxian's, with King Jian's father and son in the north, it should be stable, and Beiyan is not to be afraid.

Duanmuxian didn't brisk for long, and then he began to worry again, complaining: "The capital has finally settled down, and the emperor has mentioned the matter of summer vacation again." ”

"Now there are a lot of casualties in the Jingwei Battalion and the Xishan Garrison Battalion, and the people's hearts are undecided."

"Not only do you need money to escape the summer, but you also have to transfer the forbidden army to accompany you, and in previous years, half of the people from the Jingwei camp would be transferred to protect the holy car."

"It was still Lord Cen who persuaded him a few words, and the emperor dispelled his thoughts, but it is imperative to look at this autumn hunt."

Duanmu Xian rubbed his eyebrows with a headache, fortunately, it is only the end of June now, and the autumn hunt will be at least the end of September, so he still has time to prepare and ponder.

Duanmu Heng's face was groaning, carefully thinking about what had happened since the arrival of the military report from the northern border in May, thinking about Jun Ran, thinking about Geng Anhao, and thinking about Wei Yongxin......

He was thinking intently, and his grandfather's whining gradually left him, and he didn't know how long it took, but his grandfather suddenly called him: "Brother Heng! ”

Duanmu Heng, who was thinking, slowed down two beats before he reacted and raised his eyes to look at Duanmu Xian.

Duanmu Xian stroked his beard slowly, and then continued: "I want to give you a family affair. ”

After these words fell, there was silence in the study.

The summer night was already quiet, so quiet that only the sound of insects outside the window remained.

Duanmu Fei almost choked on the mung bean cake in his mouth, hurriedly served water, and said in his heart: Didn't grandfather keep saying that his eldest brother's marriage was not in a hurry, and he was not in a hurry to think about it when he passed the Jinshi? !

It's going to be too fast!

Could it be that my grandfather has been resting for a long time during this time, and he is looking forward to teasing his great-grandson?!

Duanmu Fei thought silently in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

Duanmu Heng was also a little surprised, he was saying that his marriage was not in a hurry, so he heard Duanmu Xian continue:

"What do you think of the county lord Hejing?"

After the words fell, the room fell silent again.

Duanmu Fei was almost choked by the tea again, and Ji Lanzhou's beautiful and elegant face appeared in front of him.

"Quack ......"

There was a faint rough cry of the little starling outside the window, and Duanmu Fei glanced out the window, but she didn't see the bird at all, it seemed to be just her hallucination.

Duanmu put down the blue and white porcelain teacup in his hand, for fear that his grandfather would speak surprisingly again, and he didn't dare to drink tea again.

Duanmu Heng was also stunned.

He couldn't help but think of the scenes after he met Ji Lanzhou.

Scenes appeared and disappeared in his heart like a marquee......

It seemed that a stone had fallen in the lake of his heart, causing ripples.

Outside the window, the stars in the night sky twinkle erratically, like shining gems, and like a pair of eyes looking down into the window, the leaves rustling in the evening breeze, quiet and serene.

Suddenly, Duanmu Heng stood up and said solemnly to Duanmu Xian: "It's all up to grandfather." ”

The implication, of course, is that he has no problem with this marriage.

Duanmufei's small mouth was round and open, almost dumbfounded, she almost didn't pinch herself to see if she was dreaming.

Duanmu Xian looked at the eldest grandson, laughed, and his whole face was radiant, as if he was several years younger all of a sudden, and even the troubles in the court were forgotten in an instant.

He knew that his vision was good, and the future granddaughter-in-law he chose was naturally good!

Duanmu Xian was quite complacent.

His right hand tapped a few times on the Ruyi Fangji, revealing a deep groan, and said with a smile: "I plan to ask Mrs. Li to probe the mouth." ”

There are no elders in the mansion of the county lord of Hejing, and it is not appropriate for Duanmu Xian to rashly go over to propose marriage, so it is most appropriate for Mrs. Li to go to explore the wind first.

Duanmu Heng spoke up again: "Grandfather Lao is bothered. ”

Duanmu Fei was in a very complicated mood, looked at the night sky outside the window, and thought to himself: Will Ji Lanzhou agree?

At night, the silver moon is like a hook and the stars are like a brocade.

In the study, there was a complete silence.

As the night deepened, the entire capital fell into a peaceful sleep.

For the next two days, there were no ripples in the capital, like a pool of calm lake.

On June 28, Mama Zhang came forward to buy Wei Ruxian back, and she was taken back to Zhanqing Hospital.

Since the summer vacation in Ningjiang Palace the year before last, Duanmufei has not seen Wei Ruxian for nearly two years.

Wei Ruxian looked familiar and a little unfamiliar.

Her body was much taller, but she was very thin, her face was sallow, her expression was haggard, and she was wearing a frost-white dress, which was a little baggy, as if she was wearing someone else's clothes.

"Fourth girl Duanmu." Wei Ruxian solemnly blessed Duanmu Fei, and looked at Duanmu Fei gratefully, her moist and dark eyes were red, "Thank you for your help." ”

Since she broke off the marriage contract with the fifth son of the Pan family, Wei Ruxian has lived alone in Zhuangzi outside Beijing, at ease, staying at home, and wholeheartedly guarding filial piety for her deceased mother, until five days ago, the official of the Criminal Department sent to Zhuangzi to take her down.

She learned that her father Wei Yongxin had been beheaded by the emperor.

At the end of May, her mother's filial piety had just passed, and next, she would keep filial piety for her father Wei Yongxin for three years.

After hearing the news of her father's death, Wei Ruxian didn't have time to grieve at all, and began to worry about her own future.

In the past few days, she has almost been unable to sleep, worried about being afraid, for fear that she will be bought by the Teaching Division.

She wanted to die, but she was afraid of death, thinking that if she really entered the Jiaofang Division, she could only kill herself with the last silver hairpin in her hand, until the person who bought her entered Duanmu Mansion, until she was taken to Zhanqing Courtyard, and she was relieved until she saw Duanmu Fei.

Her apprehensive eyes gradually settled.

Duanmu Fei looked intently at Wei Ruxian, who was only a few steps away from her.

The past two years are not long, not short, Wei Ruxian's appearance is still weak, but her eyes seem to be brighter and calmer than before.

"Miss Wei," Duanmu Fei smiled softly at Wei Ruxian, "sit down and talk." ”

Wei Ruxian hesitated for a moment and sat down.

The green pothos hurriedly served tea and snacks, and Wei Ruxian's body could not hide the cramped look, after all, she was only the daughter of a criminal minister now.

Of course, Duanmu Fei saw it, so he made a long story short: "Miss Wei, you are now an official slave, even if I buy you, it is impossible for me to cancel your slave status." ”

"Fourth girl Duanmu, I understand." Wei Ruxian hurriedly said, "Although I am stupid, I also know a little bit of good things, and it is already my great luck that I can be bought back by the girl." ”

Wei Ruxian barely squeezed out a smile, her voice was still as soft as before, soft, and seemed to be rubbed.

As long as she can avoid entering the workshop, it is enough. What if you are a slave and a slave for a lifetime!

It's better to be alive than dead. Wei Ruxian said to herself in her heart.

Bi Chan on the side looked at Wei Ruxian, and felt a little sympathy in her heart.

When the Wei family was at its most beautiful, Wei Ruxian, the daughter of the Wei family, was worse than a slave, but after Wei Yongxin was convicted, Wei Ruxian had to pay for her father's sins.

"If only you could think about it." Duanmufei could roughly guess what Wei Ruxian was thinking, but he couldn't say much.

Wei Ruxian took two sips of tea with a teacup, and then smiled embarrassedly, "Duanmu Fourth Girl, I don't know how to serve people, I'm afraid I can't be qualified to be a maid, but I can plant flowers, I have been planting peonies in Zhuangzi for the past two years, and this year I also cultivated a two-color peony, a peony flower is half pale pink, half is dark pink, I named it 'Shuangqiao'." It's a pity that this year has passed the flowering period and can't be shown to the girl. ”

Double Joe?! Duanmu was stunned, she had also heard of this kind of two-color peony, when the peony bloomed in May this year, this "double Qiao" was hard to find in Beijing, but she didn't expect this peony to be cultivated by Wei Ruxian.

Duanmu smiled, so good.

Wei Ruxian can be regarded as having a skill, and she does not need to rely on others.

Duanmu Fei thought about it, smiled with crooked eyebrows, and proposed: "Miss Wei, I also bought the Zhuangzi you lived in before, and you will continue to go back to live and grow flowers." ”

The Wei family was copied, and the family property was naturally sold, so Duanmufei asked Mama Zhang to buy the Zhuangzi where Wei Ruxian lived.

As if she had been entrusted with a heavy responsibility, Wei Ruxian smiled shyly, got up and blessed Duanmu again, and responded gratefully.

She left two more teas in Zhanqing Courtyard, and then left with Mama Zhang and went to Zhuangzi.

After the people of the Wei family were dealt with one by one, Wei Yongxin's case was completely over, and those Wei family's in-laws, cronies and old relatives were finally relieved and escaped.

Calm gradually returned to the capital.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter amid the sound of cicadas chirping one after another.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Li came to the door, still with the second lady Xin.

This time, Duanmujun and Duanmufei entertained the two elders in the small flower hall again.

Duanmufei also made sugar water for the two elders with his own hands.

"Grandmother, second aunt, you try, this is the rose dew I made myself, and it has been specially chilled." Duanmu smiled and personally sent two cups of iced rose dew from the tray in the pothos hand to the Li family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, "You two try the taste." ”

When Mrs. Li and the Xin family heard that Duanmu Fei made it herself, they laughed so hard that their eyes narrowed.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hurriedly tasted it, their smiles were even thicker, and they were full of praise:

"Our scarlet sister's craftsmanship is so good!"

"Yes, yes, I've never eaten such a delicious rose dew, sweet but not greasy, fragrant but not strong."

Duanmu said beautifully: "Grandmother, second aunt, I have a knack for this rose dew, when I made rose marinade before, I deliberately put green plums in it, which is sour, so it can be sweet but not greasy, fragrant but not strong." ”

"I've made several cans of this rose marinade. Later, my grandmother and second aunt will take two cans back, soak them every day, and then put them in the well water to chill them, which is the most suitable for cooling off. ”

Xin Shi laughed from ear to ear, and felt that it was still a girl's caring, but his stomach was not angry, and he was born full of stinky boys who were angry and didn't pay for his life.

"Mother," Xin said to Mrs. Li with a smile, "our scarlet sister is really filial and well-behaved!" ”

Duanmu Jun nodded again and again on the side, of course his sister is filial and well-behaved.

But Mrs. Li was looking at Duanmujun in a daze, a little absent-minded, and she looked like she wanted to say something.
