All the ladies laughed and joked back, whether it was to sell Mrs. Qinhou's face or not, Ran Jia's name hung a sign in front of them.

The refreshments of the banquet she organized, they were able to see and taste it to their heart's content, and their skills were laid out here, no one wanted to be pressed by others, and they would definitely invite Ran Jia to come over to help.

And in the past, when she participated in various banquets, camellia parties and other occasions, Mrs. Qinhou's dress was the first one, and it simply became the trend in the circle of the powerful in Kyoto. But Mrs. Qin Hou is another pleasing and shocking outfit.

Women don't have the slightest resistance to dressing, they have long coveted the uniqueness of Mrs. Qinhou, and now that they have the opportunity to stand out from the crowd, can they let it go, naturally they won't!

They were afraid that they would not be able to rank up, so they immediately borrowed Mrs. Qinhou's pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and made an appointment with Ran Jia to wear the peony flower party held at the end of May. They have their own tailors at home, and Ran Jia only needs to draw them, which is not too time-consuming and troublesome.

The ladies and ladies gave half of the deposit, and each of them turned out to be ten taels! There were one hundred and seventy taels in one circle, and Mrs. Qin Hou asked Ran Jia to find a brocade box to put it.

While he was talking, Ran Yu hurriedly came in, greeted the lady and the young lady in a regular manner, and then walked to Mrs. Qinhou and whispered in her ear very quietly.

The smile on Mrs. Qinhou's face did not change, she nodded, and said apologetically to everyone: "I can't leave everyone to continue drinking tea and visiting the garden today, there are some small things at home that I need to deal with, and I will treat you again when I go back." ”

Everyone stood up with a smile and said goodbye and left, who is not like this in the house, there are many masters in the back house, and there are more things, which one has to be bothered by the housemaster? The dedication is not pleasing either, and they understand each other's bitterness.

Waiting for Mrs. Qin Hou to personally send them away, the smile on her face turned without the slightest trace, and she said coldly: "Let's go, Mrs. Benhou wants to see, who is so bold and dares to make trouble at the Hou Ye's birthday banquet!" ”

Ran Jia followed everyone step by step to the guest room, pursed her lips and lowered her head slightly, feeling a little annoyed. She had experienced too little, and she had only hastily avoided leaving by herself before, but she had forgotten how bad the matter would have on the Hou Mansion.

Most of the male guests were sent away by Hou Ye, and some guests who were drunk and couldn't leave for a while were also taken to another place to rest. The guards of the Hou Mansion tightly surrounded the courtyard inside and out, leaning on the arch with their chests hugged, listening to the shouts inside, with a shallow curvature at the corners of their lips.

The guards standing on the side stared at the arc with their spare eyes, and the boss of the heart said that he married the woman he liked, and sure enough, the ice was turned into water, and he could laugh out loud when he couldn't see it, tsk, the sister-in-law's stunning beauty personality was tender like water, if they were, they would also be happy to squint their eyes into slits and only show their white teeth.

Ran Jia followed all the way, and when she saw Ying Key, her watery eyes looked over, but she couldn't get the slightest response, and her heart was a little sour. She stopped and didn't continue walking, but waited outside the courtyard, after all, she had left the Hou Mansion and became an ordinary person, so she shouldn't be too involved in it. It's just that she is the one who is calculated, and the girl who harms others and can't eat the consequences of her own evil doesn't know if she will bite her out.

She walked lightly to Ying Key's side, tugged at his sleeve, and whispered, "Ying Key, can you come with me, I have something to say to you." ”

Ying Jian lowered his arm, hummed, turned his head sideways and explained to the newly appointed head of the Hou Mansion guard beside him, and then let Ran Jia pull him out.

They walked a few dozen steps, and she looked left and right to find no one else, then lowered her head and let go of her hand, and explained in detail what had happened before, "I was so scared at the time, I just wanted to get out of there quickly." It just so happened that the master and the lady came to me to talk about something, and I couldn't handle it properly. Now that I have been seen as a joke of the Hou Mansion, I, I have failed my master. ”

"Do you know who is inside?" Ying Jian already knew that this was a calculation, but he couldn't help but ask.

Ran Jia shook her head, thought seriously and replied: "I don't know, the room is dim, I only saw a man lying on the bed behind the screen, and there were official boots next to the bed." ”

Ying Jian opened his mouth, but he didn't expose the jealousy and suspicion that he still hadn't eliminated. "The person inside is Gao Shangshu, if someone dares to use his brain on him, then you are just piggybacking, and the masters will not rely on you."

Ran Jia breathed a sigh of relief, "But I didn't inform the master at the first time, and it was not right for others to see the excitement of the Hou Mansion." ”

He stretched out his hand to grab hers, the slenderness of his hand was really cold, and he pulled her other hand into his palm to warm her. He has been sending someone to secretly protect her, so he naturally knew about it as soon as possible, and immediately reported it to Hou Ye. However, he didn't tell her in detail, just said in a deep voice: "With me here, you don't need to worry and blame yourself, this farce was controlled in time, and the impact is not big." I'll let Xilai take you home first, and when you wake up, I'll go back too. ”

Ran Jia's body finally had some warmth because of the warm internal force he entered, she pursed her lips and nodded, looking up slightly at his dark eyes without any focus, and for the first time in her heart really carried a little self-consciousness as his wife, with a trace of pain.

"You're done and come back early," she gently retracted her hand from the dry warmth of the key, giving her a sense of security.

Ying Key's eyes trembled slightly, he hummed, and as soon as he raised his hand, Feng Xilai, who was waiting far away, immediately trotted to him.

"Hello, come back after you send your wife back home."

Ran Jia walked to the door of the house, took two steps and looked back at his standing tall figure, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, if it weren't for everyone being emotionally subtle, she really wanted to turn around and run into his arms and hug him tightly. At this moment, her heart was calm and agitated, as if she had lifted the fog and found a beacon fire to guide the direction, and she wanted to do something to vent.

When she returned home, she washed up and changed into comfortable and soft clothes, and lazily covered herself with a thin blanket and crooked on the soft couch. After a busy morning and another calculation, her eyelids were quite heavy, looking at the locust tree in the gap in the window, and gradually fell asleep.

When Ying Jian came back, the mother-in-law had already lit the two lamps in the yard, and Ran Jia made three dishes and one soup of steamed steamed buns and put them in the pot to warm them. As the evening sun sets, the spring temperature also leaves, and the cold drags the moisture on the green blades of grass.

Ran Jia waited for him to wash his hands and face, change his clothes, and sit at the dinner table.

The oil and water of the noon banquet was large, so she only used oil, salt and soy sauce to mix a water radish, fried kidney bean vermicelli fried meat, shredded carrot meat, the soup was thick corn soup, and the steamed bun was a high-stake steamed bun that her mother-in-law had beaten hard.

Now only the couple are left in the family, Feng Xilai, two mothers-in-law, an old man who cares for the door, and a lame man who runs errands and drives. Ran Jia is not harsh, when cooking, she makes them together, she is willing to put oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and has fat and thin meat, plus her good craftsmanship, home-cooked dishes make people eat the satisfaction of delicacies from the mountains and seas.

Putting down the chopsticks, the mothers-in-law hurriedly served tea and cleaned up the dining table.

Ying Jian sat on the chair and took a sip of tea, looked sideways at the place where Ran Jia's gentle breathing came out, and said without waiting for her to ask: "That girl was newly promoted by the old woman, she has a good relationship with Xuehua, and this time she also took it upon herself to stand up for Xuehua."

Gao Shangshu is over half a hundred years old, and he is extremely enthusiastic about the affairs of men and women.

The face of the Hou Mansion is a little ungood-looking, and she can't send that girl, and Xuehua is not a direct instigator, so she was only implicated in being reduced from a first-class girl to a third-class girl. The masters knocked all over the people, and the matter was overturned.

However, the masters said that you were wronged, and you were rewarded with something. ”

Ran Jia exhaled lightly, "Gao Shangshu has always been at odds with Hou Ye, and this time the matter will definitely be widely publicized." ”

"Well, so Hou Ye took the preemptive action, Gao Shangshu went out of the mansion with the front foot, and someone went to the market with the back foot to say that Gao Shangshu took a fancy to the girl of the Hou Mansion, and asked for someone on the spot by getting drunk, and led out the door after the banquet. Gao Shangshu's reputation for bullying men and women has long spread in the market, and everyone is willing to believe this statement. Ying Jian rarely talked to Ran Jia in detail.

This is the most she has heard him say, perhaps, he was so angry by her refusal to marry, plus his eyes can't see, so Ying Key's temperament seems to have changed these days.

But no matter how hard he tried to pretend to be cold and rude, as long as Ran Jia thought about it carefully, he could still find his care and care for him. In the past, she didn't think deeply or look closely, so naturally she didn't notice it.

"I hope so," Ran Jia whispered, they had broken away from the Hou Mansion, and they should live their own lives. She told me about the work of taking over the costumes of the ladies and ladies of the Peony Flower Club, and she may help various prefectures to host banquets in the future.

"You don't need to ask my opinion, do you like it?" Ying Key's face was silky soft, and even with that scar, most of his anger was missing.

Ran Jia nodded vigorously with a hint of excitement and excitement: "I like it, I am working hard to learn things in the Hou Mansion, and I think that one day after leaving the mansion, I can use my own skills to earn money and live a peaceful life." ”

Ying Jian listened carefully, "Actually, we have rent to collect now, and I usually have some scattered accounts, which is enough to live a peaceful and happy life, you don't need to be so tired." ”

"I can't be idle, I stay in the square yard every day, like a finch in a golden cage, day after day, year after year, it's too boring. I," she said cautiously, "if I take these two jobs, I will be able to pass the time, and I will have some income and some money to save for the children." Of course, I won't delay things at home. ”
