Chapter 214: Rain and Wind in Beijing

Shoufu Chen Buhou's house has been bustling recently, and there are suddenly two more people in the house that was originally as quiet as an empty mountain, not only Chen Buhou's face is getting more and more happy, but the house is completely new.

The mother-in-law sat around the small stove with a needle and thread, and the upper of the shoes in their hands slowly revealed a lifelike butterfly with wings ready to fly as they spoke.

Ah Nuanwu moved a small table and a small pestle by himself, and sat outside the curtain near the inner room to peel off the longan.

Cao Qin leaned on the big pillow to cut the window flowers, no one disturbed, and she quickly cut out three different styles of magpies climbing branches, stepping on the snow to find plums, and more than every year.

Ah Nuan stretched her neck through the bead curtain and asked, "Is the young lady thirsty, and the slave maid will bring you a bowl of soup?" ”

Cao Qin shook his head and said, "No need, you are busy with you, I am in a mess at this moment, and I always feel that something is going to happen." ”

Ah Nuan simply dropped the longan and opened the curtain to come in.

"Since the young lady is here to relax, she shouldn't be bored in the house all day, why don't you go out with the old lady?"

"You, sometimes your brain just doesn't shine." Cao Qin put down the scissors, got up and spread the cut window grilles on the table, put on his shoes and walked to the window, it was gloomy outside.

"It's rare for my mother and father to go out together, and if I'm still seven or eight years old, it's okay to go out with them. Now that I'm older, my mother and father want to have an intimate gesture and will take care of me. ”

Ah Nuan covered her mouth and smiled: "It turns out that Miss wants Mrs. to add another brother to you to play!" ”

It's good to have it, but it's a pity that she has to work hard for her mother for ten months, Cao Qin is distressed, and she feels that it doesn't matter if she doesn't.

But Chen must have hoped to add Ding to Cao Dao in his heart.

Cao Qin knew that her father still had affection for her mother, and her mother's recent behavior was like a flower moistened by the rain that she had not seen for a long time, so she did not hinder them from being together again.

"Don't you have your aunt's whereabouts yet?"

Ah Nuan sneered: "What does Miss still care about her? As the old saying goes, "Husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes", my aunt saw that Miss Ming Kite was in prison, and instead of helping with us, she took Miss Yingying away and flew away, but anyone who is affectionate and righteous will not do this!

In the past, when Aunt Cao was there, did the rouge silk shorten her by a point? The golden lock around Miss Yingying's neck when she was full moon was made by Aunt Cao melting the hairpin in the dowry, did she remember a little bit! ”

The old man scolded right, my aunt is a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed!

Ah Nuan's scolding, Cao Qin knew that there was no news of his aunt. The money she gave to her aunt was enough for their mother and daughter to rush back to their hometown, and I hope they can be content and never return to Ruyang in this life.

"Miss Qin, there is a stranger outside the house, and the lord has told me not to walk around the gate if there is nothing to do."

It was the steward of the Chen Mansion who came to pass the word, and a few mothers-in-law who were embroidering shoes asked who it was, but the steward only said that he had never seen it.

Cao Qin's heart was in turmoil, so he sent Ah Nuan to see it.

Ah Nuan was quick with his hands and feet, and he came back after a short time and said, "Listening to that accent, it sounds like our Ruyang." ”

At this time, the Chen family was not there, Cao Qin lived in the Chen Mansion, everything was not as casual as at home, so he had to wait in the room for the Chen family and Cao Dao to come back from shopping.

……

"Where's Mian'er?" Chen Buhou sorted out the hand-copied ancient books over the years in the study, and just divided a stack and sat down to rest.

The steward said: "Childe's friend in the Dengke Book Club wants to return to his hometown, and Childe will practice for him." ”

"So the son-in-law of Li Chongshan's family also went?" Chen Buhou took a sip of Biluochun, he remembered that Chen Mian had told him that Li Bozhang was not in a good mood because he missed a question in the exam.

Seeing that Chen Buhou was tired of dividing the papers, the steward rolled up his sleeves and said while tidying up: "Go, Li Gongzi's spirit looks much better than a few days ago, and I heard Gongzi say that it is the credit of the second son of the Xu Cover family of the Ministry of Rites!" ”

"Xu Mask?" Chen Buhou didn't have much impression of this person, even Hao Tingmei, Ren Shuhua and Shi Zhangbi from the Ministry of Rites, he hadn't seen him for a long time.

The steward said: "Speaking of which, Lord Xu and Princess Baozhen's husband's family are in the same place, isn't Princess Lingyang also spending her old age in Pingyang Mansion...... The little one didn't hear much about Lord Xu in front of people about Princess Lingyang and Princess Baozhen, so he didn't think he was very familiar with it. ”

Chen Buhou was surprised, he had heard Chen Mian say that there was a man surnamed Xu in the Dengke Publishing House who had been engaged to the third girl of the Ruan family, how could Xu Mian not be familiar with Princess Baozhen?

"My lord, the young man outside the door has been standing and not leaving, and the little one is worried that he will attract the attention of others after a long time."

Chen Buhou said: "What are you afraid of, we are not afraid of shadows." What did the man not say? ”

The steward said, "He must have seen you with his own eyes before he can say it." ”

"It's pretty tough." Chen Buhou didn't take this matter to heart, there were more people in the capital who wanted to see him, it was nothing more than some students who knew how to write and ink, and thought they were good at learning, and they wanted to ask for an official and a half-job by submitting papers.

He, the head of the cabinet, is now useless, and there will be so many people who have no eyes to squeeze into the door, how many people can be bent on studying?

"Where's Miss Qin? Still staying in the back cover room and not coming out? Chen Buhou felt that her niece was too quiet, but she couldn't find fault with her words and deeds, and people looked at her elegantly, and she was as beautiful as her mother Chen.

The steward said: "The little one just went, Miss Qin was cutting window flowers in the house, and many of them were pasted on the windows, and the whole back cover room was warm." Since the death of my wife, the family has not been so vivid for a long time! ”

Chen Buhou glanced at the complicated ancient books, and didn't want to bother taking care of them anymore today, so he ordered the steward to call Cao Qin and his nephew and uncle to play chess.

"Qin'er has seen her uncle!" Cao Qin saluted and offered the window flowers that had just been cut to Chen Buhou. "Qin'er's craftsmanship is not good, and she cut a few styles randomly, if your uncle likes it, you can stick it in the room."

Chen Buhou took a look and praised: "It's already good, the ones sold in the shops outside are not as good as you, Qinqin, you come to accompany your uncle to play a game of chess to relieve your boredom." ”

Cao Qin should be, the steward hurriedly put the chessboard on the table, and the porter outside hurriedly ran in.

"My lord, there are more and more people outside, and they all come to see the talented young people, and the little ones are afraid that if they don't blow away, they will have to alarm the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses!"

"Why didn't my uncle let that man in and see him, maybe he really had something important to tell him?" Cao Qin said while setting up the chessboard.

If the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division were alarmed, it would be more troublesome to deal with the matter, and Chen Buhou liked to live quietly, so he asked the steward to bring people in.

"Qinqin, your temperament is just like your mother, you are good to see everyone, how can it be good to be bullied when you get married in the future?"

Chen Buhou has no sister, and there is only one child in the family, Chen Mian has only one child, and his niece can't help but love her a little more, and he can't wait to treat her as his own daughter.
