Tengshu Pavilion is only guarded by golden arrows here. Usually no one is allowed to enter, but when he saw that it was Mama Zhao, he opened the door.

Mama Zhao didn't pause on the second floor and went directly to the third floor. The second floor is the study area, Ye Feng is not there, and the doors are locked.

Mama Zhao's face was as secretive as she sorted out the clothes in the closet.

Soon, a light rain fell in the sky again, dense and silent.

Ye Feng went to the outer study as soon as he got off the office today, and talked with the secretary of the old country, and even the dinner was sent in by Ye Li.

At that time, he returned to Tengshuge.

As soon as she entered the house, Mama Zhao greeted her with a smile on her face.

She curtsied her knees and smiled, "Uncle is back, the old slave thinks about it tightly." As he spoke, he wiped the raindrops on Ye Feng's head and shoulders with a handkerchief.

Ye Feng showed a smile on his face and said, "Mama has worked hard all the way to let you rest at home, why did you come here again?" I specially gave Ye Quan two days off so that he could accompany you well. ”

Mama Zhao presented a soup cup to him and said with a smile, "Uncle Xie is compassionate, the old slaves have been entangled all the way around." He smiled again, "If I don't see my uncle, I don't feel steady." No, this is the meditation soup boiled by the old slave, and the dried longan is a tribute from the Siamese state, which is big and sweet. The prince of Duanjun gave the eldest lady a basket, and the eldest lady gave half a basket of filial piety to the lady, and the rest was brought to the uncle. ”

Ye Feng bowed to the north, thanked his mother and Lord An, and drank all the soup in the cup. He also said, "Mama is not in good health, how good it is to enjoy happiness in the capital." It is not as prosperous and rich as the capital, and there are many inconveniences in life. ”

Mama Zhao smiled and narrowed her eyes, and said, "The old slave thinks about the uncle in a panic, and it just so happens that the whole son is back in Beijing, so I follow him to see the uncle." Uncle, such a precious person can live here for a long time, how can the old slave be virtuous, why can't he come here? Hehe, the uncle is sympathetic to the old slave, and the old slave doesn't dare to take Qiao. ”

Ye Feng smiled and waved off the golden darts and darts.

There was no one in the house, and Ye Feng said again, "Mama, I have taken a fancy to a girl and will marry her in the future...... Ye Quan should have mentioned it to you, right? Her girl's name is Xia Li, she is very simple, and her grandmother will be closer to her in the future and talk more about the doorways in the inner house. ”

Mama Zhao nodded. On the way here, Ye Quan mentioned it to her, and said that this Xia girl is very liked and relied on by the uncle, and she also has some special skills, and the uncle married her. The son will tell him about this, and he must have been instructed by the uncle.

Mama Zhao smiled, "Uncle has finally figured out that he wants to marry a daughter-in-law, the old slave is very happy, if Mrs. Tai and the county lord know, they will definitely be happy to recite the Buddha." The old slave also wanted to take advantage of the quick hands and legs to help bring the little master. She thought about it, but still said in a low voice, "Uncle, the old slave saw Miss Xia and her mother today." Miss Xia looks like a spring, her eyes are clear, and she is a good girl at first glance. But her mother is not very proper......" paused, and her voice became quieter, "The old slave is sure that her mother is still a virgin and has never been married, how can she have a daughter...... Uncle should be cautious about this matter. ”

Ye Feng already had some kind of guess about the Xia family, and he was not surprised that she was a "virgin", but Mama Zhao could see from a few glances from a distance that he was surprised. Rhetorical asked, "How can Mama see it?" ”

Mama Zhao said, "Uncle also knows that one of the old slave's aunts once served the Empress Dowager in the palace. This skill, the old slave learned from her old man, "her expression was a little proud, "Even the medical girls and grandmothers in the palace are not very few people can learn it." ”

People who have this ability are generally reluctant to say that they have this ability, and sometimes cause trouble. But Mama Zhao said it today for the sake of her master.

Ye Feng's eyes lit up, he glanced at Mama Zhao a few times, and then asked, "Your aunt is very old, is she still alive?" ”

Mama Zhao said with a smile, "The old slave's aunt is sixty-seven years old, and she was released from the palace after the first queen mother, and she has never married. First it was raised by my father-in-law, and after my father died, it was raised by my brother. Before the old slave came here, he received a letter from his brother in the countryside, saying that his aunt was still alive, her legs and feet were sharp, and her teeth and mouth were good. ”

Ye Feng pondered for a moment, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and said, "I am very interested in the Qiu family of the Marquis of the Eastern Jin Dynasty now, especially the Qiu Lady Qi family...... I remember there was a rumor in the market that Qiu Ze soared into the sky after marrying Qi, but his mother, Mrs. Qiu, was so angry that she vomited blood, and the new daughter-in-law stayed in the small Buddha hall on the day she entered the door and did not come out......"

This rumor has been spread for a long time, and there is nothing wrong with the statement, but it is just that Mrs. Qiu does not like this daughter-in-law who was given by the emperor to marry, and she dares to show it. And the person who consciously guessed the inside story alluded to Qiu Ze picking up a leak, so it was reused.

More than 30 years ago, the Empress Dowager Qi was still the queen, and she only gave birth to one princess in her twenties, while the former emperor already had three sons. When Empress Qi was twenty-three years old, she finally became pregnant again, and the Qi family was afraid that she would be lonely, so they sent her sister Qi Lin, who was eight years younger than her, into the palace to accompany her. It wasn't until half a year later that Queen Qi gave birth to a son and sent Qi Lin out of the palace. Before Qi Lin left the palace, she fell into the lake and was rescued. After returning home, he committed suicide again, and the noise was a bit loud, and many powerful people in the capital knew about it. After that, the first emperor gave marriage to Qiu Ze and Qi Lin, the princes of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

The Marquis of the Eastern Jin Dynasty has been dead for three years, and the emperor has been pressing and not letting him inherit the title because he doesn't like Qiu Ze, who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and doesn't learn and has no skills. Since Qiu Ze married Qi Lin, he not only inherited the knighthood, but also became the general of the fourth rank of the left guard battalion, and then rose steadily, until the death of the first emperor did not stop the momentum......

Mama Zhao laughed and said, "That's how it was passed on in private." ”

Ye Feng said, "The rumors are not necessarily true, you must have a real hammer to know yourself and your opponent." At that time, your aunt was still in the palace, and she could see who was a virgin, and she could see who was not a virgin......" After a pause, she added, "Let Quanzi work hard again and go back to your hometown to visit your aunt." ”

If he wants to contribute to Xia Li, he has to find a way to grasp the handle of the Qi clan.

Zhao Ma nodded and smiled, "Quanzi followed the uncle to the future at a young age, this is his blessing, where dare to say that it is hard." ”

Ye Feng's smile was even stronger, and he said Xia Ju's true identity, and said that he knew that Xia's background was special, and Xia Li was only her adopted daughter. also asked Mama Zhao to keep this secret and not disclose it to anyone, including his mother. Moreover, in the future, in front of the Xia family, you can talk more about the chaos of the Qiu family.

Mama Zhao's expression became serious and she nodded in agreement. Uncle's matter, as long as he points out that he is not allowed to tell the county lord, she will never say it.

Ye Feng smiled again and asked, "When Mama comes, my mother must have given some orders, right?" ”
