Chapter 401, Lord Prefect

Ziqing saw Aunt Ouyang and said with a smile: "I was about to go to my aunt's house, we came back from Qingyuan Temple today, and the master said that it was a good marriage, so don't worry." The day is on the twenty-sixth, does my aunt have anything to say? ”

Qiu Yu was older, and hurriedly pulled Ziqing and said, "His aunt must have something to do today, so let's listen to his aunt's meaning first." ”

Ziqing then thought that the two of them came over today, and they definitely didn't come to ask for the letter, how could the woman be so in a hurry?

Aunt Ouyang held a small wooden box in her hand and handed it to Ziqing, Ziqing took it and took a look, wasn't it the golden hairpin she gave yesterday? Could it be that the other party is not happy with this family business?

Seeing Ziqing looking at them, Aunt Ouyang said, "Eldest niece, you are not an outsider, so I'll just say it." You golden hairpin, we shouldn't have asked for it yesterday, no, just walked into the house, the people in the village saw my girl wearing a golden hairpin on her head, they all came to take a look, this touch, that gnawed, the beads on it fell off, my mother-in-law and concubines knew, all gathered around, everyone cried poor, to sell this golden hairpin, to my mother-in-law to catch medicine. Where am I willing, no, it's a good meal. Early this morning, I asked my eldest daughter-in-law and eldest son to go into the city, I want to make up the gold hairpin, by the way I asked how much it is worth, but unfortunately, the shopkeeper said, this gold hairpin is worth more than ten taels of silver, and this gold hairpin costs 500 yuan, we can't afford it, no, I sent it back to you, I'm sorry, the eldest niece, a good pearl hairpin, let us break it. ”

Ziqing thought about it, but she still didn't think about it, but when she heard that this golden hairpin was touched by so many people. There were even people who gnawed it, and Ziqing categorically wouldn't want it again. Then he said: "Auntie, I didn't think about it, but. There is no reason to take back the gifts that are given. Since this golden hairpin is still worth a few taels of silver, you can sell it and buy some dowry for the girl. Or keep you to marry a daughter-in-law, it is also a dowry that my second aunt added to you, in addition, there are a few pieces of clothing, I was going to send it to your girl, take it to make a few clothes, and wait for the next day to wear it. ”

Aunt Ouyang thanked her tremblingly when she heard this. I didn't expect to have a dowry of more than ten taels of silver all of a sudden, and now, the silver for her daughter-in-law also came out. After the two left, Qiu Yu complained that Ziqing shouldn't have given her the golden hairpin so early, and said, "It's okay now." Most of this golden hairpin will not come back after entering her house, so she will definitely sell it for his daughter-in-law. What a pity, such a good hairpin. ”

Xia Yu listened to Qiu Yu's complaints, glared at her, and said: "Give it all, I don't look at her family like she loves to be cheap, maybe she will add a few things to the child to marry, even if they don't add anything." If you take it to marry a daughter-in-law, we won't suffer, and we should raise such a big girl and give us something. ”

Qiu Yu wanted to say something more when she heard it, but when she saw Xia Yu's expression, she swallowed it back. changed his tone and asked, "Does Xiaowen still need to buy silver bracelets?" ”

Xia Yu thought for a while and said: "Don't use it first, I'm afraid that it's okay to take it back if I buy it, and it's the same if I make it up to her when I get married." ”

Ziqing saw that there was nothing to do, so she said goodbye to Qiu Yu, Qiu Yu was still sighing, Ziqing knew that she was distressed that the pearl hairpin cost more than ten taels of silver, it seems that a person's habits are still a little difficult to change, but Ziqing feels that Qiu Yu is much more pleasing to the eye than before.

Ziqing went back to her mother's house first and talked to Shen, thinking of Qiuyu's grinning and aching expression in the car, she couldn't help laughing, and when she saw Shen asking herself, Ziqing smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just think my sister-in-law is funny." She probably thought in her heart, unfortunately, why didn't she give this pearl hairpin? Yesterday there was no such a big reaction, but today I heard that it was worth more than ten taels of silver, but it made her feel distressed. ”

Shen Shi also smiled when he heard this: "Your sister-in-law is so problematic, this is much better, before I want to change it, I don't want to ask you directly?" You too, countryman, where can you use any gold hairpin, don't you look for trouble? ”

"That's right, I still remember that I used to give Aunt Xiushui clothes, and when my sister-in-law saw it, she said she wanted it too, but she really didn't open her mouth this time. I also saw that the girl was good, and I thought that I had settled it for my second aunt, so I couldn't give her the jade bracelet in my hand, it was given to me by my grandmother, and I didn't bring anything else. ”

Ziqing feels that she only wanders around Qingyuan and her mother's house all day long, she really has no life experience, she is not very proficient in human relations, and it is still simple to consider problems, mostly based on her own preferences, maybe her life after marriage is too smooth, there is no in-law and sister-in-law, Lin Kangping relies on himself for everything.

"You haven't even asked your second aunt what she means, you are decided, you kid, sometimes you look quite smart, sometimes you are also a fool." Shen smiled.

"Mother is right, I think so too." Ziqing admitted with a smile.

Seeing Ziqing's expression, Shen Shi smiled and said, "It's been out for a long time, let's go back first." It's time for your family to worry about it. ”

Ziqing didn't expect Shen to say this, and suddenly thought of what happened yesterday afternoon, blushed a little, and said, "Even my mother made fun of me." With that, he ran away.

Shen shook his head and smiled when he saw it, just as Zeng Ruixiang came in, and asked, "Why are you sitting alone and laughing, but Qing'er ran all the way, and I didn't even see me come in if there was anything urgent." ”

Shen Shi learned yesterday's events and said: "I was worried that my son-in-law would be prone to other thoughts when he was out all the year round, but now I am relieved, no matter what, he really has nothing to say to Qing'er." ”

Zeng Ruixiang remembered his life experience when he heard it, and Shen realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he hurriedly diverted and said that he was going to Ziqing's place for dinner.

Early the next morning, Lin Kangping said that he was going to Kangzhuang to find someone to pick oranges in the orange orchard, Ziqing suddenly remembered Mrs. Fu's words that day, and said: "Why don't we buy the barren mountains behind the orange orchard, and also plant oranges and raise sheep, and some oranges can be sent elsewhere, Mrs. Fu said that there are also people in Anzhou City who want them, and we now know these official wives, what do you say." ”

"According to you, the silver is in your hands, you can buy it when you say it, there are many people in the horizontal and vertical village, this marriage, there are more than ten more households, just to separate."

Ziqing listened to it and remembered the box that Lin Kangping gave her that day, she hadn't seen the silver ticket yet, so she took the box, the silver tickets were all 1,000 taels, Ziqing counted it, there were 20,000 taels, and asked: "Why are there so many, according to this, you will be able to return to the capital next year." ”

"No, I can get back 20,000 yuan at the end of the year, and it won't take two years to get it back, so I'm relieved."

Ziqing and Lin Kangping discussed the matter of buying a mountain, and were about to go out, when Master Fu sent someone to deliver a post, saying that he had something to see Lin Kangping.

Lin Kangping glanced at Ziqing and said secretly, I'm afraid it's not Master Fu who is invited, it's just that he just came back yesterday, how did the other party know? Thinking of this, Lin Kangping felt a little unhappy in his heart, feeling like he was being watched, but he didn't say these words to Ziqing.

After Lin Kangping left, Ziqing remembered that the new maid Xiaohe Xiaozhu was only ** years old, and it was obviously not appropriate to give it to the Shen family, so he let Xiaohuang pass, these two girls still stayed in Qingyuan, and let Xiaolu spend some effort to recuperate, thinking of this, Xiaolu and Xiaofen are also sixteen, and it is time to find a way out for them.

Ziqing was thinking about this, Xiaofen came over and said, as if she heard Wen Pozi say that her eldest daughter gave birth to another son, Xiaofen knew that Ziqing and Baofeng were good friends, so she specially reminded Ziqing.

Ziqing listened to the busy stuff, took Xiaofen and Lin Mai out, saw Baofeng, knew that the mother and son were safe, Ziqing was also happy for Baofeng, this is her third child, and now she has both children and daughters, and the life of the family is getting better and better, Ziqing is sincerely happy for her, the two talked together, but it was to exchange some experience with children, knowing that Baofeng had just given birth for two days, Ziqing did not stay long.

Coming out of Baofeng's house, Ziqing thought of Xiushui, and I don't know how this year has been, I really have some worries, that is the first warmth that Ziqing felt outside of family affection when she came to this time and space, in a flash, more than 20 years have passed, and all the people who have really been good to Ziqing, Ziqing remembers it in her heart.

Ziqing arrived home, Lin Kangping had not come back, at this time, Zeng Ruixiang and Shen had already come over for dinner, Ziqing estimated that Lin Kangping should be Fu to stay for dinner, so he beckoned everyone to sit down, Zeng Ruixiang heard that Lin Kangping went to Master Fu, and asked: "Kangping didn't come back yesterday, why did Master Fu know?" ”

This Ziqing really didn't think about it, and was asked all of a sudden, and Shen listened and said: "Maybe it's a coincidence, or if Kangping comes back, someone will always see it." ”

Zeng Ruixiang dropped the matter when he heard it, and didn't think much about it.

Lin Kangping only came back in the afternoon, Ziqing asked, sure enough, it was the prefect Qin who wanted to see Lin Kangping, and Lord Fu recommended him, and at noon, the three of them had a drink in Fengyiju.

"Now, I am sure of one thing, that is, what is the relationship between the prefect of Yuecheng and the prefect of Anzhou, because Lord Qin asked me about the affairs of the capital from the side, presumably someone in the capital spoke for us, and the prefect of Yuecheng couldn't touch our background, so I asked Lord Qin to inquire about one or two, but this Lord Qin didn't explain it, and I didn't want to ask too much."

"In this way, it's either Wen San or Xiao Yi, don't ask, the other party doesn't want us to appreciate it, it's not good to ask if you understand, it's just confused, it's a good thing to be vertical."

"What nonsense? How can there be a reason not to repay gratitude? Lin Kangping pinched Ziqing's face and smiled.

"That's right, you also said that you will repay your kindness, but aren't we ignorant of kindness? I had to be confused. Ziqing said with a smile.

"I didn't expect that I actually met a prefect in a daze, and I actually became a guest of the prefect, but there is no such thing." Lin Kangping said with a smile.

It's just that whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, neither of them knows. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
