Chapter Ninety-Six: Jin Ran didn't sleep, Zhang Qi planned

"Okay, I have no problem where I live, and I hear that Taoyuan is close to your courtyard, so it's cheap. Isn't it okay for me to go to you when I'm bored at night? While speaking, Princess Ming'an stood up: "Speaking of Tingtaoyuan, I planted a lot of flowers and grasses there before, and it is rare to come here today, where will I go first to see how those flowers and plants are doing." After speaking, without waiting for Jinran to reply, Princess Ming'an left in a hurry.

Jin Ran cried and laughed behind her: "You person! You don't know me yet? Your flowers and grasses, I've already made them good for you. You can rest assured! Jin Ran's words, Princess Ming'an couldn't hear it, she had already run away, and before leaving, she didn't forget to carry the two bottles of honey that Jin Ran gave her.

For her friend, Jin Ran couldn't cry or laugh, but Princess Ming'an ran away, and she couldn't go back to bring people back. Sheng Jinyi, who was on the side, saw that Princess Ming'an was gone, and yawned: "Sister, I have been shopping with Princess Ming'an for a day today, but I am very tired." I finally got home and was dragged by Ming'an to wait for you in the hall, I was really tired enough, if there is nothing to do today, I will disperse. I have to go to the study at night to warm up my books. ”

Before Jin Ran could speak, Zhang Qi, who had been standing behind her and had been silent, asked: "Brother Jinyi, are you going to Wenshu so late today?" ”

Zhang Qi's age is older than Sheng Jinran, Sheng Jinyi and Sheng Jinran are both twins, and their age is naturally average, but at this moment, Zhang Qi called Jinyi his brother, which made Jinran and Jinyi both a little embarrassed. But both of them had a good impression of Zhang Qi, so they didn't correct her mistakes.

Sheng Jinyi smiled good-naturedly: "Cousin." I've been out here for a day today, and I still have a lot of homework to do. I have to study for a few more hours. Although Sheng Jinyi did not directly deny it, she also used the title of "cousin" that she usually doesn't shout, which made Zhang Qi's face red, but she still tried her best to stay calm, blessed everyone and went back to her house.

Zhang Zi stretched out his ears when Zhang Qi was uncharacteristically greeting Sheng Jinyi, paying attention to the words of the two of them. When she saw that Zhang Qi, who was always cold, she actually opened her mouth to care about Sheng Jinyi today, and couldn't help sneering in her heart. She and Zhang Qi also grew up in a family, and they know each other's flowery intestines the most. Therefore, as soon as Zhang Qi spoke, Zhang Zi somewhat understood what she meant. Combined with this small action that Zhang Qi did not stop when he returned to Sheng Mansion in the afternoon......

But...... Zhang Qi's eyes rolled flexibly, and he didn't know if his good aunt knew that her baby daughter didn't want to enter the palace and wanted to marry the third young master of the Sheng family. Left and right Zhang Qi didn't get in the way of her own business, Zhang Zi herself, and she didn't mean anything to Sheng Jinyi, she was actually happy to see that Sheng Jinran's house was in a mess, this Sheng Jinyi and Princess Na Ming'an were obviously interested in each other, if Sheng Jinyi and Zhang Qi had any unclear relationship today......

Zhang Zi couldn't help but sneer when he thought of this, then this Sheng family is interesting. Although Zhang Zi and Zhang Qi don't deal with each other very well, what Zhang Zi hates more is Sheng Jinran. Therefore, she was very happy to see the next development, and she didn't need to say anything to everyone, so she moved slightly and went back to the room, she was waiting for this Zhang Qi to have any tricks. Being a theater watcher is the most leisurely.

With Zhang Qi leaving, there were less than half of the people left in the hall, and Jin Ran saw that it was not too late, so he said directly: "It's not too early tonight, I'm tired of everyone waiting for me." Let's go back first. Let's talk about it tomorrow. ”

Zhang Qi naturally said yes, and the remaining Miss Zhang naturally had no excuse to refuse, and the group dispersed with a smile and a few words.

Jin Ran went back to her yard this time, although she came back very late today, she was not tired, she took off her coat and lay on the bed, but she couldn't sleep after tossing and turning. She simply sat up with the cloak on the bed frame.

Tonight's vigil is Xiaohong brought by Jinran from the county lord's mansion, Xiaohong is lying on the small table next to Jinran's bed, her head is hanging down, her eyes are already closed, and she is about to fall asleep. Her eyes were closed, and her hands were still mechanically playing the strings, but the colored threads used to tie the strings had been confused by her, and the original patterns couldn't be seen or anything. Only the colored lines of the group are left.

Jin Ran looked at Xiaohong, who had fallen asleep, and smiled slightly, she carefully put a small blanket on this little girl, and walked to the study. Jinran's bedroom is a hall, two small hugging houses on both sides, Jinran sleeps in the east hugging building, and sets up a table and some bookshelves in the hugging building on the right Bogu shelf or something, and this small hugging building is changed into a study, Jinran puts some account books here and the like, and will reconcile accounts here when he is free.

Walking through the hall in the middle, Jin Ran still woke up Li Ying, who was sleeping on the beauty couch in the hall. Li Ying had just fallen asleep, so the footsteps of her own young lady woke her up all of a sudden. Li Ying rubbed her eyes sleepily, and she dragged the white edge of the fine cloth slippers with embroidered pink butterflies and swayed towards this Jinran: "Miss, why don't you sleep yet?" It's going to be a kid now, right? Would you like to take an early break? Li Ying was still a little confused, but when she saw that Jin Ran didn't follow a person behind her and came out with a lamp, she was instantly vigilant.

"Miss, why did you come out alone? Why do you wear such a little bit on your body? "The cloak on Jin Ran's body is just a gold-rimmed cloak with a single layer of fabric, and only one layer of fabric is very thin. As soon as the cold wind hit at night, Jin Ran also shivered. When Li Ying saw Jin Ran's state, she hurriedly put a small cotton silk cloak on the standing mahogany hanger on the side and put it on Jin Ran, and her tone was not without disgust: "Xiaohong, this girl, is too young, I don't even know if you come out, Miss, I will definitely teach her a good lesson when I turn around, next time I must keep vigil in person, these little girls are inevitably too unreliable." ”

Jin Ran comfortingly clenched Li Ying's hand to straighten his neckline: "Hey, what a big deal." I just can't sleep. I just want to go to the study to sort out the account books. Xiaohong, this girl fell asleep, I deliberately didn't call her. Jin Ran thought about it and then advised: "You will be the same in the future, you are not allowed to keep vigil if you are all big girls." Your young lady, I am not a young lady who can't sleep without a vigil. ”

When she arrived at the study, she untied the belt of her cloak and instructed, "At this time, my brother should still be doing the homework left by his father in the study." Although there is nothing wrong with working hard, it is not good to work too hard. Jin Ran added a pen to the account book, and she pressed her lips against the pen and muttered for a while: "This way, Li Ying, you go to someone and tell the kitchen, stew a bowl of rock sugar pears for my third brother, and add some honey I brought from Hanli Temple." Let him eat it while it's hot. ”

When Sheng Jinyi came back today, his voice was a little hoarse, and he coughed a few words from time to time. This cough was prevented in advance, so Jin Ran simply stewed some desserts that were good for his throat for his third brother, and Sheng Jinyi's cough worsened at that time, which made him miss his business. Li Ying saw that the dew was heavy in the middle of the night and everyone else had already slept, so she simply put on her clothes and walked around, and by the way, she passed a message to her third brother for Jinran.

This head Jinran sorted out the account books of his shop in the study. On the other hand, that Zhang Qi actually had the same thoughts as Jin Ran.

She wore a rare red dress today, this red dress was very thin, and the skirt was made of thin vermilion yarn. This skirt is made of Zhu Ruosha's lace skirt layer after layer, and the chest is also a low-cut design, which can be said to be very bold in the Hua Dynasty, and it is heavy in the middle of the night, but Zhang Qi's upper body is bare-chested for two days like a white lotus root, and only wears a shawl with a similar texture to the skirt, which is obliquely placed between the arms, adding a bit of different temptation to the originally dignified Zhang Qi.

Zhang Qi held a food box in his hand, and walked gracefully towards Sheng Jinyi's study with the door closed.

Sheng Jinyi's study door is also guarded by two small servants. Zhang Qi watched from afar, feeling a little difficult in her heart, she knew that although Sheng Jinyi liked to be funny with his sister Sheng Jinran in the morning, he was actually the most serious person, if he asked to go in so rashly, he would definitely not let himself in.

Zhang Qi bit her lip lightly, her eyes rolled, and she caught a glimpse of the light blue muslin gown she was wearing on her girl. This gown is specially made by her for her maid, using those good cloth and good threads, although it is not silk, it is also muslin, the style is decent, and there are eight small hidden buttons around the neck, which can cover people's snow-white necks tightly after being tied.

Zhang Qi had a plan in her heart, she patronized herself to dress up in good looks today, but she didn't want to wear it too explicitly, so that those little guys would definitely not put themselves in it when they saw it, and now she can only borrow clothes from her own maid.

This maid is also skillful, an ordinary straight-fitting muslin gown also made her pinch her waist and move the edge, and she also embroidered two small petunias on the hem of the clothes.

Zhang Qi just put this little gown on herself, covering it slightly, and she walked to the door of the study with a slight move: "Two little brothers, just now Sister Jinran asked me to send some sweet soup to Jinyi, these three young masters study hard late at night, and some sweet soup pads are better than hunger in the stomach." ”

Zhang Qi knew that if what he planned today came to pass, this Jinran and his past relationship would definitely disappear completely. Since she can't avoid forming a bond with Jinran no matter what, she simply put on the banner of Sheng Jinran at this time, her sister cares about her brother and asks her cousin to help send a bowl of sweet soup, is it possible that these subordinates still dare to obstruct it?

The two little guys were already very sleepy when they were on duty late at night, but as soon as the cousin of the Zhang family came, there was a faint fragrance, these two little guys were only fourteen or fifteen years old, and they just entered this Sheng Mansion as soon as they were sensible, and they were all serving at the young master's place every day, and they couldn't even see a little maid a few times a year, let alone such an approachable Miss Zhang?

This Zhang Qi looked prepared, she smiled and beckoned the maid behind her, and opened the big food box she brought, there was a plate of rose osmanthus cake on the first layer of the food box, and there was a strong fragrance of roses just after opening. These two boys were also worth half the night, and now their stomachs were empty, and it was when they were hungry, and when they smelled the fragrance, their stomachs began to growl.

The two little guys glanced at each other, their faces turned red, and they embarrassedly refused: "Miss, you don't have to give it to us, we are not hungry yet." As soon as the words fell, there was a rumbling sound from the stomachs of the two of them, and the refusal of the two people seemed less confident.

"Hey, it's just a plate of snacks, are you still worried about me poisoning it? These are all brought from the Sheng family's kitchen, and they are all ordered by your young lady personally! Zhang Qi couldn't stop pushing things on Jinran's body. She knew that these two little servants were very protective of the Lord, and they didn't see her much, and it was normal for them to be wary of themselves. Therefore, he kept leading the conversation to Sheng Jinran.
