Chapter 174 Second Lady Qi's Tricks

Xun Qingran walked to the door of the study, stood for a while, and then pushed the door in. Qi Yu sat behind the bookcase, and there was a somewhat scattered tea set on the low table next to him, and the tea had already cooled. Xun Qingran hurriedly ordered people to pack up their things.

"Why did you come back?" Qi You asked, not looking up.

Xun Qingran saw that his face was as usual, and he didn't look angry, and his heart was relieved. Qi You is no longer a child, even if it is because someone has violated his taboo and dealt with it, there is no need to be angry.

"My wife sent me back to have a look." Xun Qing said, thinking about how to tell Qi You about releasing Xiangxiu.

"Go and boil a pot of spring water from Yuqing Mountain." Qi Yu commanded.

The malt was busy answering and retreated.

Yuqing Mountain is forty miles outside the capital, there is spring water in the mountain, sweet and clear, and the daily drinking water of the palace is the water on Yuqing Mountain. Qi Mansion also carries water from Yuqing Mountain every day, but it is very rare, and it is best to use it to cook tea.

Qi You stood up and took down a set of purple sand tea sets from the Duobao grid behind the bookcase.

"The fourth master wants to cook tea by himself?" Xun Qingran saw that Qi Yu was like this, so he guessed.

The two of them moved to the low couch by the window, and after a while, the malt brought water in. Qi Yu began to cook tea with his hands.

The windows are wide open, reflecting the verdant greenery of the windows. Qi Yu concentrated on making tea, and Xun Qingran stretched his eyebrows.

She put Xiangxiu, Qi You was in the house, it was impossible not to know, but she didn't say anything, and she didn't even ask. Now she is cooking tea for her by herself, how can such support not make people feel comfortable.

The fragrance of tea is lingering, and the two of them taste tea, not only do they have the feeling of stealing a half day of leisure.

The little girl outside suddenly came to report, saying that the second lady of Qi had asked Xun Qing to dye over.

Is this anxious to know the follow-up to the Xiangxiu incident? Xun Qingran put down the teacup, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

………………

Qi Nian Hall Second Lady Qi looked at Qi You, who came to ask for peace with Xun Qingran, and was stunned for a moment, then showed a face full of kindness, and asked about Qi You's affairs in the court.

"You are by the emperor's side, and you have to be careful in everything. It's okay to come home and relax. Your daughter-in-law helps me take care of the house, takes care of your negligence, and looks at my face, don't blame her. Second Lady Qi said.

"Thank you for your mother's care. Although she is dull, she takes care of her considerably. Qi Yu said.

"Oh," Second Lady Qi looked at the two of them, "That's good." ”

After a while, Second Mrs. Qi still asked what she wanted to ask for a long time. "The girl who just went to Ning Yuanju to spread the word came back and said that a girl had bumped into you, what happened?"

Xun Qingran said secretly, when the little girl in the New Year's Hall went to pass the word, Xiangxiu had already been sent back to the house, how did Second Mrs. Qi know that someone had collided with Qi Youna?

"There is a little girl who is careless, and her daughter-in-law has already punished her." Xun Qingran replied for Qi You.

"Serving the master is the duty of the subordinates, if you make a mistake, you will be punished, don't be too conniving, how to ......" Second Lady Qi asked carefully.

"It's not a big deal, mother doesn't have to bother." Qi Yu said.

"Oh, that's good, that's good." Second Mrs. Qi didn't want to continue to ask.

The three of them sat for a while, and then they came to Yinianju together to say goodbye to the Rong family.

Qi Yi was also there, sitting on the couch with Rong's. Second Mrs. Qi and Qi You accompanied the prime minister, and Xun Qingran personally took the tea and presented it to the Rong family first, and then to the second Mrs. Qi.

"You're also to blame for the hard work, sit down and talk." Rong laughed.

Xun Qingran sat next to him and talked about the housework in the house.

"The old lady has been through a lot, and I want to ask the old lady for advice. Why is it that three years ago, these eggs turned out to be twenty big coins a piece, which is four times more expensive than now, could it be that those eggs were made of gold back then? ”

Xun Qingran took out the novelties he saw in the account book and asked the Rong family.

The Rong family likes to talk about the ancient times the most, and when he heard Xun Qingran ask like this, he smiled, "How old were you at that time, and you were in Yingchuan, raised in the deep boudoir, where do you know about the capital." That year, there was a flood near the capital, followed by an epidemic. Half of the chickens and ducks in the capital died. Then the egg has become a rare thing, twenty big dollars, and ordinary people can't buy it. Not to mention people like us, even the share in the palace has been reduced by half. I still remember that one day that year, Xiao Wu was about to eat egg custard somehow, but it happened that the family ran out of everything, and it was too late to buy it outside. The cook made a bowl of goose eggs, and after taking a bite, Xiao Wu said that it was not an egg and spit it out. The cook is very capable, the egg custard is added with a lot of dried scallops, and the taste is adjusted. ”

Qi Yi has a bad mouth, and he doesn't have to be delicacies from the mountains and seas, but he has to eat whatever he lacks, which is something that Qi Fu knows.

"The old lady sent me, why don't I remember this." Qi Yi does not follow the Tao.

Rong laughed, and Second Lady Qi also laughed.

Xun Qingran was a little embarrassed, the prosperity of the capital, the wealth of the Qi Mansion, there is such a thing, so the life of ordinary people can be imagined.

Xun Qingran talked about the price of vegetables twenty years ago, ten years ago, three or five years ago, and today's comparison, which caused Rong's to talk about the changes in the capital over the years.

"These hairpins are all expensive, and the brothers and sisters are all expensive, and they don't let them know this, and they don't say that they are noble. I don't see it that way, these folk sufferings still need to know something, and you can't raise "why not eat minced meat", just don't get contaminated with copper stench. Rong finally said.

Xun Qingran couldn't help but secretly admire that the Rong family is also a woman in the back house, but this vision and knowledge are not comparable to ordinary people, and the major affairs of the country and the people can be treasured.

Rong glanced at Second Lady Qi intentionally or unintentionally.

"This boy, looking at the account book, saw so many interesting things." Second Lady Qi said with a smile.

Xun Qingran lowered his eyes, interesting stories are not told in vain.

In the evening, the prayer hall is in the upper room.

"You looked for the Tong family, but you asked clearly." Second Mrs. Qi asked Mama Zhang.

"The slave and the Tong family are also old friends, and the little sisters used to be together on errands when they were in the Hou Mansion. She also treats her slave as her own. The servant followed his wife's instructions and asked very carefully. Although the Tong family was secretive, the minions could understand it. Her girl is sixteen years old, but she has the idea of climbing the dragon and the phoenix. I want to take advantage of this opportunity to sell well in front of the fourth master. Who knew that her girl somehow angered the fourth master, and the fourth master punished her to kneel outside. They knew the fourth master's method of dealing with people, and they were afraid to die, so they begged the fourth grandmother. The fourth grandmother made the decision and let the girl go, and only fined one month's monthly money. The fourth master actually acquiesced. ”

Second Mrs. Qi frowned, what kind of thoughts did the girl have, Xun Qingran wouldn't know that such a lenient treatment had also been approved by Qi You, what were the plans of the husband and wife?

"But the fourth master wants to take that girl in the room?" Second Lady Qi asked.

Although the fourth grandmother didn't just say it, she treated that girl very well. The Tong family and the girl were also frightened, and only recognized the fourth grandmother as the master, and that mind was waiting for the fourth grandmother to call the shots. Mama Zhang said.

"In your opinion, is the fourth grandmother jealous or not, will she really accept people in the house?" Second Lady Qi asked.

Mama Zhang felt that this matter was very difficult to say, "Let's not be jealous, the last time I picked celery, I accepted it on someone else." But if you say jealousy, it's not like it. The two married girls have good looks, and they are also very good to the citron, and this Xiangxiu, if they are jealous, they will directly take advantage of the momentum of the fourth master. ”

Second Mrs. Qi felt that what Mama Zhang said was right, but she was a little stunned. Today, after hearing this, she thought about three situations, either Qi You wanted to receive Xiangxiu, Xun Qingran refused, or Qi You punished the girl, and Xun Qingran lost Xun Qing's face, or Xun Qing Dye released Xiangxiu, Qi You was dissatisfied. Either way, there will be disagreements between the two.

She didn't expect that this incident not only did not cause a gap between the two, but instead fueled Xun Qingran's momentum.

This son is already closer to the Rong family, and if he is so close to his daughter-in-law in the future, how can she still have the position of a mother.

Second Mrs. Qi slept quite unsteadily that night, and when she got up the next morning, she sneezed a few times.

"Madam, are you caught in the cold? The maid went back to the fourth grandmother and asked the doctor to come and treat the wife. Caidie said.

Second Lady Qi waved her hand, but she sneezed twice, and there was nothing else uncomfortable, her body was clear to herself.

"It's just a few sneezes, what's the big deal, the morning meal, tell them to make it lighter."

"My wife is delicate, so you have to be careful." Mama Zhang also went to the second lady of Qi to serve.

"It's fine." Second Mrs. Qi sat in front of the dressing table and asked Caidie to help her comb her hair.

The crisp voice of the little girl outside sounded, "The fourth grandmother is here." ”

"Let her ......" Second Lady Qi just wanted to say let Xun Qing in, but after a pause, a thought suddenly rose in her heart.

"My body is indeed a little heavy, perhaps, I should ask the doctor to take a look."

Caidie was a little surprised, but Mama Zhang was more experienced than the little girls, and she only exchanged glances with Second Mrs. Qi, and she already understood.

When Xun Qingran came in from outside, she saw Second Lady Qi lying on the bed with her hair scattered. Mama Zhang took a few girls with colorful butterflies and waited at the head of the bed.

Xun Qingran hurriedly stepped forward to greet Second Mrs. Qi, "Mrs. is not feeling well?" ”

"It's not a big deal." Second Lady Qi said weakly.

Mama Zhang said on the side: "There are a lot of things to do these days, and my wife is tired. And because of this weather, I had a cold last night. In the morning, he said that he was dizzy and heavy. The servants all advised the wife to rest, but the wife refused, so she got up in a hurry and fainted. It scares the minions to death, grandma, it's terrible. ”
