Song Lingyue hurriedly waved her hand and said with a smile: "Well, Aunt Li is not used to the tiring journey, and there are still elders in the family who need to be taken care of by Aunt Li, which is really inseparable." ”

"That's easy, I'm asking Song Shui to hire a carriage and pick them up together, just tell them to rest assured, it won't be too bumpy to sit in the carriage." Song Xuanran didn't care.

"It's still not troublesome, the old man's meaning is not good for me to be a junior, let's set off quickly, if you don't leave, the sun is about to set." Song Lingyue hurriedly changed the topic.

"That will have to wait for next time." Song Xuanran was quite sorry, and hurriedly beckoned Song Shui to bring the carriage over.

Song Xuanran was obviously prepared, the four-horse carriage was large and spacious, and it was exquisite, and such a carriage was a little ostentatious when it walked on the road.

Song Lingyue helped Song Yanzhi and Xiangling into the carriage, and just as she was about to get in, she heard Qi Mo say:

"Let the carriage be done by their ladies and children, and a few of us older men will follow on horseback."

Without waiting for Song Xuanran to speak, Song Lingyue interjected:

"Qi Mo, there is quite a lot of space in the carriage, it is more than enough for a few of us to sit down."

As soon as her words fell, she was glared at fiercely by Qi Mo, and quickly retracted her head.

"How is it, I don't know what Master Song thinks?" Qi Mo looked at Song Xuanran defiantly.

"Brother Qi has said so, so how can there be any reason not to obey." Song Xuanran smiled heartily and asked Song Shui to unload the reins of two of the horses and share one with Qi Mo.

As for Song Shui, Qi Mo and another little guy, they sat on the wheel and were responsible for catching the car.

Qi Mo just turned over and got on the back of the horse neatly, and he was handsome and neat.

"Brother Qi is very skilled." Song Xuanran praised it, but he didn't fall behind, and he also jumped on the horse with a turnover, and made a gesture of please when he sat down.

Qi Mo grabbed the horse's belly and shouted, and the horse immediately trotted with him.

Song Xuanran behind him was not far behind, and soon caught up with Qi Mo.

Seeing this scene in full view, Song Lingyue secretly said naïve, and when she sat back in the carriage, the corners of her lips were upturned.

It is still good for this carriage to be big, the big ruts of the carriage are big, and it will be stable to drive, if it weren't for the scenery outside the window that has been flying backwards, Song Lingyue could hardly feel the progress of the carriage.

"This carriage is so comfortable!" Xiangling also felt that the big carriage was good, the carriage rented before was only the size of a palm, and it was already crowded after sitting down three people.

But the Song family's carriage is different, although there are not many seats and only the last row, the width is enough for people to lie on the carriage and take a nap. The seat is covered with this thick cushion, and it is as comfortable as sitting on a cloud, and you can hardly feel the slightest bump.

Song Lingyue also touched the interior decoration of the carriage with envy, "When I have money, I will also build a carriage like this, no, I want to build a carriage that is more comfortable and luxurious than this." ”

"Hmmm! Well! Xiangling nodded again and again, but then covered her mouth and giggled, the bell that fell on her hair bun jingled, and her eyebrows and eyes were crooked when she smiled: "But, Master, when will you become rich?" ”

Song Lingyue rubbed her chin in thought: "This is really a problem...... Wait a minute, you little girl, you dare to joke about Master. ”

Saying that Song Lingyue was about to get her hands on Xiangling's itchy meat, Xiangling dodged Song Lingyue's attack while laughing, begging for mercy while giving Song Yanzhi a look at the envoy on the side, and asked Song Yanzhi to save her.

"Sister, how old are you, why are you still like a child." Song Yanzhi opened his mouth, taking advantage of Song Lingyue's inattention to secretly squeeze Xiangling's eyes.

"Don't think you want to help Sister Xiangling, don't know! You're a little villain too! Song Lingyue couldn't see the careful thinking of the two little ghosts, hugged Song Yanzhi, and tickled him, and suddenly a silver bell-like laughter sounded in the carriage.

After laughing for a while, all three of them felt a little hot, so they lifted the window open a slit.

Song Lingyue could see Qi Mo through the gap in the car window.

I saw Qi Mo riding on a tall jujube red horse, dressed in green clothes, and his clothes were raised by the breeze to hunt and hunt, which had the taste of a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses.

Song Lingyue held her cheek with one hand, but her eyes glanced at Qi Mo for a while.

Not to mention that this beautiful man in ancient costume riding a horse is good-looking, and even the beads of sweat on his forehead are dyed with a sexy taste.

Song Lingyue watched and tasted silently in her heart, fortunately, Qi Mo didn't look back, otherwise she would definitely find her sight at this time, it would be too embarrassing.

Xiangling approached Song Lingyue, curiously followed her line of sight, and saw Song Lingyue peeking at Qi Mo through the crack in the window, and couldn't help but say: "Master, I thought you were enjoying the scenery outside the window, but I didn't expect it to be peeking!" ”

Xiangling's voice was not deliberately concealed, and Qi Mo outside the carriage could naturally hear it.

Song Lingyue hurriedly turned around and covered Xiangling's mouth, and when she turned around, she happened to meet Qi Mo's gaze.

Oops, peeking was caught.

Song Lingyue hurriedly pretended to be looking at the scenery, and looked like she had just discovered Qi Mo, and said with a smile, "What's wrong?" ”

The corners of Qi Mo's lips hooked, and his thin lips curved into a beautiful arc, "Should I ask you this sentence?" ”

His narrow phoenix eyes narrowed, and his gaze fell on Song Lingyue's hand covering Xiangling's mouth, and he snuggled his mouth.

"It's just the right weather today, where are we going? Isn't it almost there? Song Lingyue didn't see it, her face didn't change, and her heart didn't beat to change the topic.

Qi Mo Zema approached the window, and whispered in a voice that only Song Lingyue could hear: "Don't you know where we have gone after watching all the way?" ”

Song Lingyue felt that her face turned red all of a sudden, and sure enough, she was still discovered by him.

Song Lingyue closed the car window, only to feel that her earlobes were slightly hot, and when she closed her eyes, Qi Mo's face with a wicked smile made her bite her lower lip at a loss.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Song Mansion, and Song Lingyue got out of the carriage with Qi Mo's support.

As soon as the group arrived at the door, Mrs. Song had already walked slowly to the door with the support of the two maids, and when she saw Song Lingyue, she smiled:

"It's kind of looking forward to you, and I'm worried that Ran'er won't be able to invite you."

"Old Madam Song is fine." Song Lingyue stepped forward to greet Mrs. Song, hurriedly beckoned Song Yanzhi and Xiangling over, and introduced Mrs. Song one by one: "This is my brother Yanzhi, this is my apprentice Xiangling." ”

Song Yanzhi and Xiangling glanced at each other, and before Song Lingyue could speak, she had already called sweetly: "Hello old lady." ”

"Good, good! It looks like a pair of golden boys and girls! Old Madam Song touched Song Yanzhi's head lovingly, and pinched Xiangling's face, her face was full of love. Come in, come in, I've been looking forward to when you'll come again. ”

"Mother, you lead them in first, I'll explain some things to the next person, and I'll be back in a while." Song Xuanran said this respectfully to Mrs. Song.

Mrs. Song waved her hand, indicating that he was going to come back quickly, and stepped forward to take Song Lingyue's hand affectionately and lead her to the mansion.

Song Lingyue smiled: "It's not that things are complicated on weekdays, this doesn't bring a group of small people to bother Old Madam Song." ”

"What a nuisance is not a nuisance! More people are better, more people are lively! Old Madam Song happily patted the back of Song Lingyue's hand, beckoned Song Yanzhi and Xiangling to follow, and turned back to talk to them intimately:

"Yeon-yeon should be happy this time! On weekdays, there are no friends to play with her, but when you come, Yanyan will have company. ”

The group walked through the front yard to the lobby of the Song Mansion, and as soon as they stepped into the threshold, they felt a chill on the pavement.

It turned out that the hall was already full of ice cubes, and the maids stood behind the ice cubes with fans, fanning the cool breeze into the hall.

Although it is not as good as modern air conditioning, it is also a little cold in this midsummer season.

"It's so cool!" Song Yanzhi was the first to sigh, "How did you get so many ice cubes?" He had already stepped forward curiously, approached the ice cube that was more than half his height and touched it, and his tentacles were cold.

"Be careful not to frostbite your hands." Mrs. Song instructed with concern, turned her head and said to Song Lingyue: "A few days ago, Ran'er went to Fairy Peak to mine, and I wanted to dig some stones to make bonsai, but I didn't expect to dig saltpeter. ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Song smiled, and the wrinkles on her face were stretched: "In the past, ice was used in this house, and it was necessary to ask someone to buy it, and it was very difficult to buy it if it was expensive, but now with saltpeter, it can be regarded as a comfortable summer." ”

"Is there still a place to sell ice cubes in this Jizhou Mansion?" Song Lingyue's heart moved, if there is a seller of ice, she can go and buy some back.

"Why, do you want to buy some ice cubes too?" Old Lady Song asked rhetorically.

Song Lingyue nodded embarrassedly: "My medical hall happens to be exposed to the west, and the sun has been getting big recently, and everyone is so sunburned that they don't want to move." ”

"It's not like there's no one who sells ice, but it needs some way." Old Lady Song talked to Song Lingyue while walking inside, "The ice cubes used in previous years were all purchased from the housekeeper of the Northern Hebei Palace, but the quantity is limited, and at most two or three pieces of this size will be evenly distributed every day, and it will melt in less than two hours." ”

"Does the housekeeper of the Northern Hebei Mansion still sell ice cubes? Isn't the prince not short of money? In Song Lingyue's impression, as a prince, she should be a powerful man, and she has seen the king of Jibei once, and her whole body is magnificent, no matter how you look at it, she doesn't look like a master who is short of money.

"The prince is naturally not short of money." Mrs. Song smiled, "But the prince can't use those many ice cubes by himself, so the next people will think of ways to make some extra money." ”

"If this is known by the prince, wouldn't those subordinates ......" Song Lingyue stretched out her hand and gestured around her neck.

Mrs. Song said: "How can the prince not know such a thing, it's just a matter of turning a blind eye." ”
