Yang Xuyao still grabbed Duanmu Qi's left wrist tightly, a gentle smile appeared on his handsome face, and he comforted him softly: "Qi'er, it's all a family, don't be angry with your grandfather." ”

Duanmu Qi looked at Yang Xuyao in a daze, lost his soul, his heartbeat pounded faster, and the sound echoed in his ears louder than the other.

Since she married into the Yang family, Yang Xuyao has been considerate and obedient to her, and the Yang family has been very kind to her, so they almost gave her up, so that she almost forgot that all this was because she had her back to the Duanmu family.

Duanmuqi's body was as stiff as a stone carving.

The yin in Yang Xuyao's eyes at that moment made Duanmu Qi's heart cold, and he couldn't help but think of Liu Yingshuang, the fifth young lady of the Pan family.

After she married into the Yang family, some of her former close friends in the boudoir were estranged from her, but she was quite close to Liu Yingshuang, and of course she knew a lot about Liu Yingshuang.

Once, how many years Wei Yongxin spoiled Liu Rong, how many years did Liu Yingshuang be beautiful, even if how many noble girls in Beijing looked down on her, they didn't have to please her, they had to make friends with her, when they were at their most beautiful, Liu Yingshuang even snatched the marriage of Wei Yongxin's daughter, and Wei Ruxian could only bear it.

Later, after she married into the Pan family, she has always been held and pampered by the Pan family.

If Wei Yongxin had been standing, Liu Yingshuang might have been able to be proud, but Wei Yongxin had fallen.

Without the support of the Wei family, Liu Yingshuang's life in the Pan family took a sharp turn for the worse, Mrs. Pan used the name of her mother-in-law to torture her, Pan Fanglu took one concubine after another, snubbed her, and even the subordinates in the house dared to kick her nose and face at her, and snub her in eating, wearing and chewing.

Not long ago, Liu Yingshuang stabbed Pan Fanglu in an outer room with a knife, which was fatal and did not die, but the Pan family was impeached by the imperial history, saying that Pan Fanglu was prostituted for fun during the queen mother's state funeral, and the Pan family was robbed of his title for this.

The Pan family blamed Liu Yingshuang for the seizure of the title, not only divorced Liu Yingshuang, but also sentenced her to exile for 3,000 miles by Jing Zhaoyin.

Liu Yingshuang just stabbed Pan Fanglu in an outer room, that is, the outer room is really dead, and she is just a lowly slave, not to mention that people are not dead, it is not difficult for the Pan family to protect Liu Yingshuang, but the Pan family is helpless and unwilling to act......

Duanmuqi's heart sank lower and lower, getting cooler and colder.

She looked at the corners of Yang Xuyao's mouth and dark and deep eyes that seemed to be smiling, and then looked at Duanmuxian, whose face was as heavy as water, and at this time, she was really frightened.

In case of...... If her grandfather really kicked her out of the house ruthlessly, then what would the Yang family do to her?!

Liu Yingshuang's encounter flashed quickly in front of her eyes, Duanmu Qi bit her lower lip, and used all her strength to keep her body from trembling.

"Qi'er." Yang Xuyao called again in a threatening voice.

Duanmu Qi's face turned pale, after all, he blessed Duanmu Xian who was the head, softened his posture, and begged for mercy: "Grandfather, it's the granddaughter who is wrong." ”

On the one hand, she was worried in her heart, and on the other hand, she comforted herself, it was the Duanmu family who owed herself and caused herself to marry into a down-and-out family like the Yang family, she just said a few words, and it was no big deal, her grandfather would not really kick her out of the house, right?!

Duanmu Yuan looked at Duanmu Qi coldly, and the mockery on the corner of his mouth became even stronger.

Hmph, let Duanmu Qi jump up and down, today's second sister is really losing face!

Duanmuxian didn't want to look at Duanmuqi at all, let alone pay attention to her.

Now that Dasheng is in danger and the wind and rain are ethereal, it is not easy for him to keep the whole family, and he really has no intention of disciplining Duanmuqi who is not obedient.

"Let's go." Duanmu Xian said lightly.

Duanmuqi didn't expect her to admit her mistake in public, her grandfather didn't give her face at all, and subconsciously wanted to have a seizure again, but was stopped by Yang Xuyao.

"Qi'er, grandfather is still angry, let's compensate grandfather another day, right?" Yang Xuyao looked still so polite, and gave Duanmuqi a warning look.

Then, he said goodbye to Duanmu Xian, who was at the top, and pulled Duanmu Qi and left in a hurry.

Almost the moment he walked out of the True Fun Hall, Yang Xuyao's face changed, and he was so gloomy that he was about to drip water.

Duanmuqi's throat seemed to be choked, and he was silent.

Everyone in the main hall watched the two people bypass the wall in front of them, and suddenly, a slight clicking sound broke the silence, and they saw Duanmuxian holding a blue and white porcelain teacup, slowly caressing the floating leaves on the tea soup with the tea lid, calming down.

Quanfu cleared his throat and continued to take Ji Lanzhou to recognize his relatives, and the next one was the third girl Duanmuyuan.

Without the troublesome Duanmuqi, the atmosphere quickly became harmonious, and Ji Lanzhou also gave Duanmu Yuan a pair of identical gold-inlaid jade bracelets.

Duanmuyuan got up and saluted and thanked Ji Lanzhou.

The next one is the fourth girl, Duanmufei.

"Fourth sister." Ji Lanzhou smiled and blessed Duanmu, and the maid gave another meeting gift, but this meeting gift was not ordinary.

She gave the other girls the same gold and jade bracelets, but when she arrived at Duanmufei, they became the four treasures of the study.

Generally speaking, the four treasures of the study are gifts from the new daughter-in-law to the younger brothers of the husband's family.

Duanmu Jun couldn't help but smile when he looked at it, and glanced at Duanmu Heng.

Duanmu Heng was also looking at the four treasures of the study on the tray, and the corners of his lips were slightly upturned, as if he was quite appreciative.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Duanmu's eyes were shining, like bright stars, and he thanked Ji Lanzhou.

She is beautiful in her heart: Zhuge pen, pine smoke ink, Chengxin paper, Chengni inkstone, all of which are the best in pen, ink and paper inkstone, and my sister-in-law is really a good eye! She had itchy hands and wanted to go back and write a word with this new cluster of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

The expressions of the others were a little subtle, and they exchanged glances with each other in twos and threes.

No one in this mansion knows that the old lady cares most about the homework of the eldest young master, and the eldest young master cares most about the homework of the four girls.

It seems that this young lady really has a delicate heart, and as soon as she entered the door, she inquired about a lot of things.

Ji Lanzhou didn't stay here for long, and continued to give gifts to the other younger brothers and sisters, basically the girl's family got a pair of bracelets, and the sons got the four treasures of the study, as for the children under the age of six, they were all given gold locks and red seals, and the little ones who were happy to receive the red seals danced with their eyebrows.

The atmosphere suddenly became lighter.

Duanmuxian was also in a good mood, and smiled and invited everyone to move to the flower hall to enjoy the banquet.

And after he himself confessed his relatives, he left in a hurry, Duanmu Xian has been too busy recently.

The others also knew that it had been an eventful time recently, so they didn't go to stay with Duanmuxian.

After lunch, those relatives and friends said goodbye one after another, and when the time came, the newlyweds saw off the last few guests at the Yimen, and Duanmu Mansion suddenly became deserted.

Duanmu Jun originally planned to retire with his sister, but when he saw a little guy coming quickly, he said to Duanmu Heng: "Young master, the second master invites you to go over to his study." ”

Since the little girl didn't mention Ji Lanzhou, it was because Duanmu Chao didn't call her, Ji Lanzhou smiled considerately: "Husband, you go." ”

Duanmu said with a smile: "Big brother, my sister and I took my sister-in-law to walk around the house and recognize the environment. ”

Duanmu Heng bowed slightly to the sisters, and followed the little girl.

Ji Lanzhou watched him drift away, with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were like autumn water, and his lips were like a crescent moon.

Looking at Ji Lanzhou, Duanmu Fei suddenly remembered that on the way back to Beijing from Qianfeng Temple that day, her sister seemed to have such eyes.

Seeing Duanmu Heng's back disappear around the corner in front of him, Ji Lanzhou withdrew his gaze, but met Duanmu Scarlet's thoughtful eyes, thinking that the other party was making fun of him, and a faint flush appeared on his cheeks, adding a bit of beauty.

Ji Lanzhou cleared his throat and said with a smile: "Big sister, fourth sister, I'm tired of you." ”

"It's all your own family, Lan Zhou, you don't have to be polite, let's take a walk in the outer courtyard first." Duanmu Jun was down-to-earth and generous, and she had already figured out in her heart that after Ji Lanzhou returned to the door, she would hand over the family's middle feed to her little by little, and she could also concentrate on preparing her sister's dowry and breeding new horse breeds for the horse farm.

The three of them walked forward with a smile, and Duanmujun introduced Ji Lanzhou as he walked:

"After entering the gate, walk forward through the outer instrument gate, which is the main hall of the outer courtyard, Chaohui Hall, with two rows of outer study rooms on both sides, which are used by my grandfather and several uncles."

"On the outside of the outer study on the east side are the stables and the garage."

"After passing the inner door, it is the main hall of the inner courtyard, the real fun hall, and you have also been there when you recognized your relatives just now."

"The garden is on the East Road, and the Hanlian Courtyard is very close to the northwest gate of the garden."

“……”

Along the way, it was basically Duanmuxuan who said, Ji Lanzhou listened, Duanmufei occasionally added a few words, and when he walked to the garden, Duanmufei's words increased.

"Sister-in-law, let's go to the small flower hall and sit and rest for a while, and we can also enjoy the fish by the way."

"There is a Western fish in the pond next to the small flower hall, and I named it 'Fire Qilin', which is very beautiful."

After entering the small flower hall and sitting down, Duanmu Fei pointed to the "fire unicorns" in the pond outside to show Ji Lanzhou.

The "fire unicorn" has been kept in the pond for more than a month, and the life is obviously good, each one is fat, but also flexible, and the fish's tail is flicked, occasionally stirring up some splashes.

"It's a really good fish." Ji Lanzhou said with a smile.

"That's nature." Duanmu smiled even more happily, sweet and cute.

Ji Lanzhou's maid saw that her master and the two Duanmu girls got along well, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she used to see that the eldest girl and the fourth girl of Duanmu were very good to the county lord, but in the past, they were good friends with the county lord, but it did not mean that they were willing to accept the county lord as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Duanmu family.

Now it seems that there is no need to worry about this.

With the support of the eldest girl and the fourth girl, I think the county lord will soon be able to gain a firm foothold in her husband's family.

After a pause, Duanmu scarlet proudly showed off: "Sister-in-law, these 'fire unicorns', eat well here, and 'move' a lot, so they will naturally be raised well." ”

Duanmu Fei's tone was a little meaningful, and Duanmu Jun explained with a smile that the little starling and the little fox both like to come here to enjoy the fish, and the fish are afraid when they see them, so they move a lot every day.

Ji Lanzhou listened, the corners of his rosy lips curled, and he chuckled.

Her eyes looked intently at the tail of the "fire unicorn" in the pool, and her half-drooping eyes were as clear as water, gentle and quiet.

People in the world often say that a girl's home is like a flower. The beauty of the flower depends on the soil and water in which it is located, and if there is no good care for it, the flower will wither.

But she felt that the woman was more like a fish.

There are aquatic plants in the water, that is, no one feeds them, and the fish can also eat aquatic plants for a living, not necessarily unable to live, but if they can live in such a pond in front of them, they can live so vigorously.

Maybe she is confined to a pond, but this pond is a home, a home where she can live like a fish in water!

Duanmu's house is very good.

This will be her home, her own home, and in the future, she will no longer be under the fence.

At this time, the cicada who had just gone to get fish food came back at a trot, "Fourth girl, young lady, slave maid has brought fish food." ”

Bi Cicada put the box containing fish food on the small square table between the two, and Ji Lanzhou grabbed a handful of fish food casually and scattered it.

The "fire unicorns" in the pond immediately swam over frantically wagging their tails and fluttering in the water to grab food.

The water surface of the pond rippled with the swimming of those fish, sparkling, and Ji Lanzhou's eyes became brighter, and his eyes were rippling.

In fact, five days ago, Duanmu Heng went to look for her, and he specially waited for her at the gate of Huilanyuan to get out of school and sent her back to the county lord's mansion.

Along the way, he told her why his grandfather Duanmu Xianhui temporarily decided to advance the marriage of the two of them, and also told her about the current dilemma of the Duanmu family.

She knew that Duanmu Heng wanted to give her a chance to retreat, but she chose to move forward.

Duanmu Heng was willing to tell him about the predicament of the Duanmu family, but it made Ji Lanzhou more and more sure of his character, and this marriage was even better than she expected!

Life is impossible to be smooth, such as herself, once her father was a political envoy when he was alive, at that time, she was the object of envy of countless ladies, but all of a sudden, the bad news came that her father had passed away...... Later, even her mother died, leaving her to become a helpless orphan girl, at the mercy of her grandfather's family.

But no matter how difficult the level is, she also came out, she found her murderer for her unjustly killed biological mother, she broke free from the cage of her grandfather's house, and walked step by step to the present.

She wants to have a home, a home where she can be honest with her!

Duanmu Heng gentleman is dignified, gentle as jade, as long as he is as open and honest to her as he is in the future, the husband and wife work together, even now the Duanmu family is in the sea of swords and fires, and they can also get through it and get through this difficulty!

"Sister-in-law, look at that fat fish, it's so bad, in order to grab fish food, I threw my tail on the face of the fish next to me......"

Duanmufei's crisp laughter echoed in Ji Lanzhou's ears, and her smile was also transmitted to her, and Ji Lanzhou also smiled.

Here, she is at ease.

Ji Lanzhou casually sprinkled another handful of fish food into the pond.

A "fire unicorn" happily jumped up from under the water with its tail, and the fish's tail sprinkled a crystal drop of water.

Duanmujun looked at the fish grabbing food in the pond, thought of something, and suddenly changed the conversation and said: "Lan Zhou, don't take the matter of the second sister to heart, she is such a hot temper, she can't change it." ”

Ji Lanzhou did not change the smile on his face, and said softly: "My husband told me about her temperament, and I won't rest assured." ”

Duanmu Heng told her about Duanmu Qi? Duanmujun and Duanmufei quickly glanced at each other, that is to say, before recognizing their relatives, Duanmuheng had already told Ji Lanzhou in advance about the temperament of these people in the Duanmu family......

So much better.

The corners of Duanmujun's lips hooked, and it seemed that the newlywed couple were very harmonious.

Duanmu Jun said with a smile: "Ah Heng has always been steady and serious in his work. ”

Ji Lanzhou was stunned, and suddenly remembered the eyes that seemed to be burning when he looked at those students on Mingxian Street that day, and couldn't help but say: "Actually, he occasionally wants to be impulsive......"

Duanmujun and Duanmufei looked at each other again, and Duanmufei leaned over with his little face, "Sister-in-law, what did the eldest brother do quietly?" ”

She squeezed her eyebrows at Ji Lanzhou, and Ji Lanzhou couldn't help but let out a happy chuckle.

"Whoa......

"Rustle......

The sound of the water and the wind are intertwined, as if they are playing a piece of music in unison.

Duanmu Mansion has been full of joy these days because of this marriage, but in contrast, the atmosphere in the capital is becoming more and more solemn.

After the third prince Mu Youjing was sent out of the imperial study by the emperor that day, he did not stop, and frequently spoke up and down, trying his best to persuade and lobby the ministers, and hand over Jun Ran in exchange for the peace between Dasheng and Northern Yan.

Under the deliberate promotion of Mu Youjing, the streets and alleys in the capital are discussing this matter, and it is boiling.

For example, in a small tea house outside the West City Gate today, there are more than a dozen tea customers talking about the topic of Beiyan and Junran.

"I don't know what the official family is hesitating about, as long as you hand over Jun Ran, you can exchange for peace between the two countries, isn't it simpler?" A young man dressed in a lake blue dark stripe excitedly put down the teacup in his hand, and the teacup fell heavily on the slightly old tabletop.

"yes." An old man sighed and said, "King Jian died in battle, what good general in Dasheng can fight against Beiyan?" Beiyan is like a wolf and a tiger, if it can stop the war, it is better than the country being ruined! ”

Some nodded, while others disagreed.

"This little brother, and this old brother, this is wrong!" Another dusty middle-aged merchant retorted impassionedly, "King Jian's Mansion is a heroic martyr, how can he hand over people for me, doesn't this make the soldiers of the frontier cold?!" ”

"That's it, that's it! King Xianjian died in battle to protect the northern border, and before the bones were cold, he had to hand over other people's sons, which is too unseemly! A loud voice echoed in a rough voice.

The blue-clothed young man's face was slightly gloomy, and his right hand struck twice on the table with a fist.

A middle-aged scribe in a green shirt in the corner said up, "These two old men, I think you are thinking too simply!" ”

"The war between the two countries involves the safety of tens of millions of Li people in Dasheng, if the two countries can negotiate peace, why should they provoke a war again, disturbing the world is not peaceful, and the people will suffer!"

"Moreover, once I, Dasheng and Beiyan, continue to fight, have you ever thought about how long this battle will last, the last time Beiyan and Dasheng fought was nearly ten years! How many troops and military salaries will be spent, the treasury is empty, these military salaries will naturally be taken from the people after all, and how many taxes will be brought to the people!! ”

When it comes to paying taxes, many tea customers are slightly condensed.

For these ordinary people in the capital, the Northern Yan army went straight into the Central Plains or something, it is still a little far away, Dasheng has been peaceful for more than 100 years, and the war in the last years of the previous dynasty is just a story in the history books or in the mouth of the book, but this tax is the matter at hand.

Dasheng's taxes are already heavy, if there is an endless war, I am afraid that there will be more taxes, how can the people live their lives? !

In the tea house, it was quiet, which formed an extreme contrast with the noise on the official road outside.

The young man in blue looked around at the group of tea guests in the tea house, and the corners of his mouth were almost invisibly hooked.

He cleared his throat and said righteously: "This brother is reasonable, how can he sacrifice a country for one person?!" ”

"Isn't it obvious which is more important?!"

At this moment, a sound of breaking the air came from behind, and the blue-clothed young man felt that something was wrong, but before he could react, the middle-aged scribe's face changed, and he shouted: "Palace...... Childe be careful! ”

It's late!

A long horsewhip flew like a snake from outside the tea house and slammed into the right arm of the blue-clothed young man, making a "pop" sound.

The blue-clothed young man reflexively snorted in pain, his face turned pale, and he blurted out: "Presumptuous......"

The end of the second word "wanton" became vain, and he saw the girl holding the whip at the door of the tea house, and his pupils shrank sharply.
