For three days in a row, Aunt Luo would appear on time in Fangzhi Courtyard every morning, noon and evening to serve Xiao Ji's diet and daily life.

When Tong Changqing first saw Aunt Luo hanging her head to serve Xiao Ji's meal, she gave her a strange look and asked casually, "Why are you here?" ”

When Aunt Luo heard this, she showed a shy smile, and timidly glanced at Xiao Ji, who was sitting on the side, and said, "The concubine is here to serve the wife." ”

Tong Changqing looked at Xiao Ji.

Xiao Ji hurriedly explained: "Yes, yes, she asked to come by herself, so I agreed." ”

Tong Changqing didn't say anything more.

It's just that when he was eating, Aunt Luo stood beside him intentionally or unintentionally, poured tea for him, and her plain white wrist stretched out from the moon-white sleeves, and a faint fragrance of plum blossoms floated into his nose, making him think of a person in a trance, and couldn't help but look at Aunt Luo again, and met her shy and timid, affectionate eyes.

That night, Tong Changqing rested in Ziwei Courtyard.

When Tong Jiayan learned the news, he was making a soothing tea in the room.

Qingju whispered: "I heard that there was still water in the middle of the night last night." ”

The green turnip poured tea in his hand, and the tea spilled a few points on the table.

Qingju looked at the two of them and said strangely: "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”

Lu Wu's face was slightly red, and he was a little embarrassed: "This is ...... Where did you hear that?! Quickly glanced at Tong Jiayan, and said in a slightly annoyed tone, "Why do you dare to say anything in front of Miss!" ”

Qingju frowned inexplicably: "I heard what the little maid in the wife's courtyard said." What's wrong? What is the ...... Any questions? ”

Lu Wu said angrily: "...... No problem. "If you ask any more questions, it should be a real problem.

"You mean...... What did you hear from the Ladry? ”

Qingju nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Tong Jiayan stood up and glanced at the soothing tea that had just been made: "Bring the tea, let's go to Fangzhi Courtyard." ”

Even the little maid in Fangzhi's courtyard was talking about this, presumably Xiao Ji's already knew.

She's going to check it out.

……

Tong Jiayan went to Fangzhi Courtyard, and Xiao Ji's two big maids, Zijuan and Jinque, were guarding the door, and there was no one else around.

Seeing Tong Jiayan coming over, Zijuan wanted to go in to report it, but was silently pulled by Qingju who came quickly, and when she turned around, Tong Jiayan waved her hand and walked in by herself.

Qingju smiled on his face, showing a flattering look.

Zijuan nodded her forehead, glanced at the sparrow, and finally stood at the door honestly.

When Tong Jiayan entered, no one was there in the bright room, but there was a thin voice in the east room.

She walked behind the screen and heard Mama Zhou's worried voice sound: "Madam, if you are really uncomfortable, why don't you invite a doctor to come in and take a look?" ”

Xiao Ji's voice sounded weakly: "I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well last night, grandma don't worry about me, you don't need to ask the doctor to come in." ”

Mama Zhou knew that it must be related to the one in Ziwei Courtyard, and she was also a little angry in her heart: "I didn't see it, just under our noses, she could make her succeed." It's only the third day, and she dares to send someone to say that she slept too late last night and can't get up in the morning, so if she doesn't come, this is relying on the master's momentum to show us! ”

Xiao Ji's heart was gloomy, and he smiled reluctantly: "Mama, don't say this outside, if people hear it, I, how should I see people." "How can there be a housewife who still eats the vinegar of the concubine's room.

Mama Zhou disagreed: "Mrs., you are too good at talking, so you will let her ride on your head." ”

Xiao Ji waved his hand: "It's like this in every family, I already knew it, but for a while, I still can't adapt to it, and I ...... It's good to get used to it later. ”

Xiao Ji comforted himself in his heart, the master is still good, and there is only one Aunt Luo in the room besides her.

I heard that in some people's homes, there are six or seven or eight concubines alone.

Tong Jiayan listened silently for a while, and only after there was no sound inside did he shout: "Mother, are you up?" ”

"Here comes the good word?"

Xiao Ji's surprised voice came out, and then the sound of rustling clothes sounded, and she walked out of it after a while.

"Why did you come here so early today? I won't say that you don't need to come over to say hello, you are still young, it is the time to grow your body, you have to rest well, and you can grow tall when you are full. Then he asked, "Have you eaten yet?" ”

Tong Jiayan affectionately held Xiao Ji's hand and said with a smile: "No, I want to eat with my mother." ”

Xiao Ji patted her hand and said happily: "Okay, then eat together with me." Saying that, he turned his head and explained to Mama Zhou, "Jiayan likes to eat crystal shrimp dumplings and soup dumplings, Mama, go and talk to the kitchen." ”

Tong Jiayan added: "Mother likes to eat fried dumplings and millet porridge, and Mama, remember to say hello to the kitchen." ”

I actually remember what I like to eat, which means that I have put myself in my heart.

Xiao Ji happily touched Tong Jiayan's face and took her to sit down at the table.

Tong Jiayan noticed that Xiao Ji's eyes were a little cyan, obviously because he didn't have a good rest last night. She wanted to make her happy, so after eating, she proposed, "Mother, do you want to go out for a walk?" ”

Xiao Ji was surprised: "Go out?" ”

"Hmm." Tong Jiayan nodded, "Go out and relax." As she spoke, she showed her little daughter's coquettishness, "I haven't gone out shopping with my mother yet." There was yearning and anticipation in his eyes.

Hearing her say this, Xiao Ji was distressed and even more self-blaming, and couldn't wait for her to agree to anything, so he immediately nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then I'll go and ask your grandmother for advice, you wait for me here."

Seeing that Xiao Ji was going to ask Mrs. Tong, Tong Jiayan said that he wanted to accompany her.

It just so happened that Tong Jianian woke up at this time, so Xiao Ji asked her to stay and take care of Tong Jianian, and she hurriedly went to Songhe Courtyard.

In the Songhe Courtyard, the second wife was talking to the old lady.

"My mother said that she hadn't seen Jiayao and Yijie for a long time, so I had time to take them back to see." The second lady sat under the old lady, peeling oranges for the old lady, and said with a smile, "Mother, when do you think it is appropriate for me to go back?" ”

Mrs. Tong glanced at her with her eyelids down: "When will you come back to your parents' house and ask me?" ”

The second wife smiled and said: "Of course, I listen to my mother so much, and I will reply whenever my mother asks me to reply." As he spoke, he skimmed a petal of oranges and ate it himself, and then fed another petal to Mrs. Tong's mouth, "Mother, I have tried, it's not sour, you can taste it." ”

After Xiao Ji came in, he saw that the second wife was also there, and she was talking to the old lady, so she stood aside and waited.

Mrs. Tong took the time to glance at her and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
