Chapter 337: Unexpected

Something happened to Ying Ze? If there is no secret decree to enter Beijing, what can happen to him?

“…… The emperor has a secret decree, and Ying Ze, the eldest son of Prince Zhaoyuan Yonghe, enters Beijing. This morning, the emperor got the news that Ying Ze suddenly fell ill on the way to Beijing, and he was seriously ill. The emperor planned to send the imperial physician to treat me, and ordered me to enter the palace so that I could take the imperial physician with him to take Ying Ze into Beijing. Qi Yu said to the Rong family and the second master of Qi.

Ying Ze fell ill on the way to Beijing, and there should be a doctor in the local area, but he had to bring the imperial doctor over, and it seems that this illness is definitely not a trivial matter. Ying Ze has practiced martial arts since he was a child and is very healthy, but the more such a person is, the more dangerous this illness is. Xun Qingran couldn't help but be a little worried.

Because of the impeachment a few days ago, the Rong family and others knew the emperor's attitude towards Prince Yonghe's old case, and now they are not surprised to hear such a secret decree.

"The emperor trusts you, and he remembers that you were good friends with Ying Ze when he was young, so he entrusted this errand to you. Hurry up and go, don't let down the emperor's grace. Second Master Qi said.

The Rong family is very reluctant, but the emperor's order is difficult to disobey.

Xun Qingran went back to Ning Yuanju with Qi You, and took Qi You, Xu Mama and others to pack some luggage for Qi You.

Fusheng and Xuan'er also knew that Qi You was going out again, and they both snuggled up to Qi You.

"Is Daddy going far away?" Xuan'er asked with a pout.

Ying Ze fell ill in Shanxi, 800 miles away from the capital, so it was naturally very far away.

"It's not far, it's much closer than Pingxi Town." Qi Yu said.

When you said this, Xuan'er immediately became happy, "Then Daddy will be back soon." ”

"When will my father-in-law come back?" Fusheng also asked.

"I can't say for sure, half a month's work should be about the same." It depends on Ying Ze's condition, even for the two children, Qi Yu is very serious. "You are at home, take good care of your mother and sister, and do not leave your work behind. Uncle Tang won't go with me this time, you still have to do your homework every day with him. "This lesson refers to sword practice and staking positions.

Fusheng's eyes suddenly brightened, he straightened his small chest, and said loudly, "Don't worry, father-in-law, I will protect my mother and sister." You won't be lazy when you practice. ”

Qi You nodded with satisfaction, and instructed Xuan'er, "Listen to your mother obediently, don't let your mother worry." ”

"Xuan'er will listen to her mother's words, well, she eats a full meal at every meal," Xuan'er responded with a milky voice. She has been a picky eater recently, so Xun Qingran is very worried about it.

Xun Qingran had already packed Qi Yu's luggage.

"The red bag is some medicinal herbs, ginseng, snow lotus, I'm afraid there is no such good one over there, it may be useful to bring it over. There is also the blue bag, which is two thick clothes, which are for Ying Ze. It was a winter coat made by estimating his size, and even if he didn't come back, he was going to send someone to give it to him. Xun Qingran whispered to Qi You, "Fusheng, I will take good care of him." ”

Fusheng only knew a rough idea of his background, but he didn't know that Ying Ze was his father. After all, Ying Ze's identity is sensitive, and Xun Qingran plans to wait for Fu Chang to grow older before telling him. Now Ying Ze is seriously ill, and I don't know what the specific situation is. Qi Yu went over, and he had to travel day and night, so he couldn't take Fusheng with him. And Xun Qingran was reluctant to leave.

Qi You looked at the various items that Xun Qingran had packed up, and was very satisfied.

"It's a good idea to think about it." Qi Yu said, and glanced at Fusheng who was whispering to Xuan'er next to him, "I'll talk to Ying Ze." If Ying Ze really can't be saved, he will tell Ying Ze that they will take good care of Fusheng.

Xun Qingran nodded.

"I'll bring the snow over to deliver the news. You Nian stays, you have something outside that is inconvenient to deal with, just let him Zhang Luo. If anything happens again, send someone to find Adan and Luanyu. Qi Yu instructed Xun Qingran, "Good students take care of themselves and their children." ”

"Well," Xun Qingran nodded, "The fourth master is outside, so take care." ”

The two of them were worried about each other, and they were reluctant, until the little guy in front came to urge, Qi You got up, went to bid farewell to Rong and the others, and went straight out of the house.

………………

Qi You went to pick up Ying Ze, who was seriously ill, and Xun Qingran was naturally worried at home. In addition to taking care of Xuan'er and Fusheng every day, he went to Yinianju to talk to Rong's to relieve boredom.

Zheng Yuanshuo's wedding date will come soon, and the Zheng family's old house in the capital will be cleaned up. Aunt Zheng said that she would take Zheng Hao'er to move back, but the Rong family liked Aunt Zheng to come over often to accompany her, and Second Mrs. Qi also sincerely retained. Aunt Zheng also liked the excitement in this house, so she said that she would not move there for the time being.

At the time of the lamp, the second lady Qi led Mama Zhang and only brought two close-fitting little girls to Xiangluo Courtyard.

"The second wife is here." The little girl at the gate of Xiangluo Courtyard was busy reporting to the upper room.

Aunt Zheng and Zheng Hao'er were talking in the upper room, and they hurriedly greeted them, and welcomed the second lady Qi to the upper room to sit down.

Zheng Hao'er personally served tea, "Auntie, please drink tea." ”

Second Mrs. Qi turned out to be a tea bowl, and when she saw that it was Lao Junmei, who she loved to drink the most, she was very ironing in her heart.

"Hao'er also sat down and talked to my aunt." Second Lady Qi said.

Zheng Hao'er agreed, and sat down under the second lady of Qi.

"Are Shuo'er's preparations over there?"

"The furniture is ready-made, it's just repainted and cleaned, and it's all taken care of. Thanks to Lang'er's help inside and out, as well as the help of the people sent by the government, it will be so smooth. Aunt Zheng said with a smile.

"What else is polite between our sisters, even if you tell me something, there is nothing else, but there are a lot of people." Second Lady Qi said.

Zheng Hao'er got up and went out of the house, and after a while, he came in with a placket of stone blue carved silk mink in his hand.

"This year, there are two good mink skins in the shop, and I like them, so I ask for them. The other piece was left for my mother, and this one made a jacket for my aunt, which was my needle and thread, and my aunt should not dislike it. Zheng Hao'er handed the pair of plackets to Second Lady Qi.

Second Mrs. Qi took it with a smile and looked inside and out. The mink fur is naturally of the highest quality, and the stone blue carved silk fabric is solemn and luxurious, which is exactly what she loves.

"It's really rare to get such a good needlework." Second Mrs. Qi touched her jacket and said, "A few days ago, I said that I wanted to add a big sweater, and this child was there at the time, so I must have remembered it." ”

"If Auntie likes it, it's fine." Zheng Hao'er smiled, "Except for my mother, only my aunt is the dearest, who else will I honor if I don't honor my aunt." ”

Second Mrs. Qi looked at Zheng Hao'er and was full of joy.

Aunt Zheng asked Second Mrs. Qi to try on whether the clothes were suitable.

Zheng Hao'er stepped forward to serve Second Mrs. Qi and took off her coat outside, and put this mink jacket on her body, which was neither fat nor thin, and it fit properly. Second Mrs. Qi has been a little blessed recently, and she has added a lot of meat to her waist, so those clothes in the past have been a little ill-fitting, and she was still a little unhappy that day. And Zheng Haoer didn't specifically measure her figure, but she was able to make her clothes so suitable. Second Mrs. Qi felt more and more that Zheng Hao'er was intimate.

"My son, if only I had this daughter." Second Mrs. Qi took Zheng Hao'er's hand, and the more she looked at Zheng Hao'er, the more she felt her heart.

"It's naturally my blessing to be an aunt and daughter." Zheng Haoer said.

"Eldest sister, just treat Hao'er as a daughter." Aunt Zheng said, "It's not that I praise my own children, the filial piety and intimacy of the good children are the most unsaid." ”

"Mother, you are boasting again." Zheng Hao'er said angrily, "Fortunately, in front of my aunt, if you are an outsider, you will laugh at us." ”

"You also said that your aunt is not an outsider." Aunt Zheng said with a smile, she was going to marry her daughter-in-law recently, and her daughter's marriage also had eyebrows, she was in a good mood, and she seemed to be a few years younger.

Zheng Hao'er helped Second Mrs. Qi take off the mink placket, put on a coat, folded the mink cardigan, and handed it over to the little girl who followed Second Mrs. Qi outside to keep it.

Second Lady Qi glanced at Aunt Zheng. Aunt Zheng knew that Second Mrs. Qi had something to say, but it was not good to say it in front of Zheng Hao'er.

"Okay, I'll talk to your aunt here, you can go and get busy." Aunt Zheng said to her daughter.

Zheng Haoer agreed, and then withdrew with the girl.

Only Mrs. Qi and Aunt Zheng were left in the house, and Mrs. Qi was afraid of leaking the news, so she specially sent Mama Zhang to guard outside the door and not let people approach.

"Sister, I'll discuss something with you......" Second Mrs. Qi took Aunt Zheng's hand and whispered her plan.

"Huh?" Aunt Zheng listened to Second Mrs. Qi's words, but she was taken aback, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Wouldn't my sister want to? Between our sisters, I won't mention my family's family. Just talk about Yi'er's child's appearance, my sister has also lived in this house for a few years, and she should be clear in her heart. Besides, let's kiss each other and marry a good son, and I love her like a daughter, wouldn't it be much better than going to someone else's house to be a daughter-in-law and set rules. Second Lady Qi saw that Aunt Zheng was only surprised, not happy, and was slightly dissatisfied in her heart, but she quickly hid that dissatisfaction and persuaded her.

"No, it's not." Aunt Zheng only reacted a little at this time, "My sister should also know that Hao'er's marriage has been decided." ”

"Of course I know, but I haven't really made up my mind, where is it. Even if it is decided, the bride price is not finished, and it is not counted. Second Lady Qi said.

Aunt Zheng felt in her heart that what Second Lady Qi said was wrong, but she didn't say anything to refute it.

"Sister, I have lived in the house for several years, and I have also seen some things in the house. Yi'er's marriage, the old lady's thoughts, I also saw it. Aunt Zheng reminded Second Lady Qi.

Second Lady Qi frowned.

"My sister is misunderstood, children grow up together, it's better than other feelings, but it's the friendship of brother and sister. The old lady only thinks that they are children, and if they really have a heart, they should have settled down a long time ago. Second Mrs. Qi said, "Now that they haven't decided to marry, is there anything that my sister is still dissatisfied with and unwilling to be a kiss?" ”

Aunt Zheng shook her head busily.

"Sister, I didn't mean that." Aunt Zheng thought about it for a while, and finally said what was in her heart, "Eldest sister, the Zheng family is just an imperial businessman, but the Qi family is ......, and this marriage is the right one." It's the eldest sister who is willing, but the old lady and brother-in-law are there, but it's hard to say. "Aunt Zheng hopes that her daughter will marry well, but she has no intention of clinging too much, of course, she is a candidate for entering the palace, which is different.

Second Lady Qi smiled, "Sister doesn't have to worry about this at all. Now the Qi family is extremely wealthy, but marrying a daughter-in-law only depends on the girl's character and temperament. Even the old lady also said that the door didn't care about these. If my sister agrees to this marriage, I will naturally ask the lady in the palace to give a decree to give marriage, how decent it is, what else does my sister have to worry about"

Second Mrs. Qi was very well prepared when she came, but it was an accident for Aunt Zheng. She was soft-tempered, not a woman with a sharp tongue and good at taking ideas, so she was a little speechless.

Second Mrs. Qi knew this sister well, and knew that Aunt Zheng was already a little moved.

"Sister, think about it, the family background of the Qi family, Yi'er's character and temperament, and my mother-in-law, who is a good child, will love Hao'er as her own daughter. This is the best choice, what better family thing to do than this? But I don't ask for anything else, only a sensible, caring and filial daughter-in-law, and my family will be handed over to her in the future. Second Mrs. Qi also told Aunt Zheng some truth, "In the future, the Qi and Zheng families will support each other, and my sister will think about ......it."

The second lady of Qi is in front of her sister, it is difficult to say that the Qi family will try their best to support the Zheng family in the future, only that the two families support each other. But even Aunt Zheng also understands that her Zheng family, what can support the Qi Mansion, naturally the Qi Mansion supports the Zheng family.

"This is too sudden, wait for me and ......" Aunt Zheng wanted to say that she wanted to discuss it with Zheng Hao'er, but when the words came to her mouth, she felt that it was not good to say this, so she said, "When I think about it again, the Sun family ...... after all."

"Okay, sister, just think about it, I'll wait for my sister's reply." Second Mrs. Qi said, but she was very confident in her heart, Aunt Zheng was just too surprised, and after thinking about it, she would definitely agree to this family business.

Second Mrs. Qi got up, and Aunt Zheng followed and sent her out.

"I'll take a look at it again." Second Mrs. Qi said, and came to Zheng Hao'er's house again.

Zheng Haoer was doing needlework with the girl in the house, and when she saw Second Mrs. Qi coming, she hurriedly stood up and asked Second Mrs. Qi to sit down on the kang.

Second Mrs. Qi picked up half of Zheng Haoer's work and looked at it, but it was a big red hijab, embroidered with a dragon and phoenix Chengxiang, the dragon had already been embroidered, and the phoenix had embroidered more than half.

"What a bright job." Second Mrs. Qi praised, "I still have a job that no one else can do." ”

"If my aunt doesn't dislike my rough benzene, she will bring it and let me try it hard." Zheng Haoer said.

Second Mrs. Qi saw that she was embroidering the dowry, but she said such a thing, but Zheng Hao'er was about to please Second Mrs. Qi, so she had to deal with it like this, but she didn't want to fall into the arms of Second Mrs. Qi.

"Okay, I'll have someone bring it to you in a moment." Second Mrs. Qi nodded with satisfaction, and her heart was even more determined to want Zheng Hao'er to be her daughter-in-law.

After sending off Second Mrs. Qi, Aunt Zheng frowned slightly when she returned to the upper room.

"Mother is embarrassed? But what did my aunt say? Zheng Hao'er saw Aunt Zheng's expression and asked with concern.

Aunt Zheng sighed.

"Okay, sit down."

Second Mrs. Qi suddenly came to ask for marriage, which made Aunt Zheng's heart very entangled. She is an honest person, she has already decided to marry the Sun family, so she has nothing else to think about, and in her heart, she never thought that she would marry the Qi family.

But Second Mrs. Qi's words made her a little moved.

Qi Yi's appearance and temperament are rare and good, and she doesn't like anything. As Second Mrs. Qi said, instead of going to a stranger's house, Zheng Haoer set rules in front of her mother-in-law and ran in with the concubines, it is better to be the daughter-in-law of Second Mrs. Qi. In Qi Mansion, the big * milk is weak, the second grandmother is Zheng Haoer's cousin, and the fourth grandmother is smart and generous, and she is good with Zheng Haoer. If Zheng Haoer marries in, it will be smooth, which is not comparable to other people's families.

The current situation of the Zheng family, she knows it in her heart. Zheng Yuanshuo can't support the family business alone, the Zheng family is now relying on the accumulation of her ancestors, and the reason why she has been living in Qi Mansion is because she has the intention of relying on Qi Mansion. I have to say that the two family affairs of Zheng Yuanshuo and Zheng Haoer can only be achieved thanks to the influence of the Qi Mansion. If Zheng Haoer marries Qi Yi, then with the help of the Qi Mansion, the wealth of the Zheng family will be guaranteed for at least two or three generations.

Of course, there is also the concubine Niangniang's decree to give marriage, and Aunt Zheng is not unimpressed by that dignity.

"Okay, your aunt is here to ask for a kiss." Aunt Zheng thought about it again, and although she was very willing, she still had to ask her daughter what she meant, so she told Zheng Haoer about her considerations, "In this way, it is also a good marriage." Your aunt came to mention it herself, if you enter the Qi Mansion, it is better than going to someone else's house. ”

Zheng Hao'er was taken aback at first, but quickly calmed down.

"Mother, there is nothing wrong with Qi Mansion, and there is nothing wrong with the fifth cousin. However, we and the Sun family have already made up our minds, although we haven't made a decision, but we have to do my brother's affairs first. If you regret it now, it can be regarded as a breach of the contract, which makes people think of the Zheng family. Such a thing is never possible. Zheng Haoer said.

"Okay, don't you want this family business?" Aunt Zheng looked at her daughter and asked.

Zheng Hao'er sighed. Between the mother and daughter, there is nothing to hide.

"I understand my mother's thoughts. The first one is that he feels sorry for his daughter, thinking that if his daughter becomes a daughter-in-law to her aunt, she will have an easy life in the future. But for the marriage of the fifth cousin, the old lady has her own favorite candidate. The situation in this house is not simple. Zheng Haoer said.

"There is a mother to marry, it's not simple and it's simple." Aunt Zheng said, "Besides, Yi'er's child's temperament is rare. Mother doesn't have to worry about your future days. ”

"The temperament of the fifth cousin is good." Zheng Haoer said, "But others are not necessarily bad." Mother, in your opinion, if there is no family, parents and brothers and sisters, he himself, can support the door? ”

"He is the youngest son, and the wealth of the Qi Mansion is enough to ensure that you will have no worries for several lifetimes. Okay, since you were a child, most of the people you have been in contact with are the same people as the Zheng family, but I'm afraid you don't know that there are people in this world who are born rich and noble. It is not uncommon for most of the children of this family to be like this, and they don't need to work their own. Aunt Zheng said.

"The mother is planning for the future of her daughter and the Zheng family, and my daughter understands. Mother, my brother's relatives, it's not that there are no better people to propose, but we only chose the Qian family, which is also an imperial businessman, and my relatives, there are also richer families to ask for marriage, but we chose the Sun family. Mother, haven't you forgotten our original intention......" Zheng Haoer reminded.

Their original intention was to rely on the power of the Qi Mansion. In terms of Zheng Yuanshuo and Zheng Haoer's family affairs, they are also very clear that those who come to ask for relatives are mostly based on the current power of Qi Mansion. But they did not get dizzy because of this, but carefully selected those who could be considered the right people.

The Sun family is scholarly and noble, Sun Gongzi and Zheng Haoer are the same age, and Zheng Haoer is Gao Pan in the family world. But the Sun family's family background is ordinary, and the officials are not big. However, the Zheng family prepared a rich dowry for Zheng Haoer. The Zheng family has to rely on the power of the Qi family, but they are very careful not to rely too much, but to carefully find a balance in it. And these are mostly due to Zheng Haoer's calculations. That's right, Zheng Hao'er, as the daughter of an imperial merchant, inherited their father's shrewd and cautious merchant nature more than her brother Zheng Yuanshuo.

"Yi'er is a good boy," Aunt Zheng sighed, she liked Qi Yi very much in her heart.

Zheng Haoer glanced at her mother, Qi Yi was very good, but she was not her ideal husband candidate. What's more, now she has set the marriage of the Sun family.

The mother and daughter discussed for a while, and Aunt Zheng listened to her daughter's opinion.

"It's okay, I said that the matchmaker has already made an agreement, and the contract cannot be broken."

Zheng Hao'er nodded, "In this way, it won't offend my aunt too much." Mother, let's move to the old house quickly. ”

Aunt Zheng thought about it and nodded.

"It's okay, originally, I planned to marry you in Qi Mansion."

…………

Suitable for living in the year

"It's all packed up over there, Shuo'er will get married in the next two days, and I plan to move over with Hao'er first." Aunt Zheng said to Rong.

"Didn't you say don't move? You live here, and you usually come over to talk, how lively. Your house is far away from here, and there are not many people coming and going. I will stay a few more days, and when the good girl is also married, it will not be too late for you to move in. Rong said.

Second Lady Qi sat on the chair and echoed, "What the old lady said is true. ”

Xun Qingran sat opposite Second Lady Qi, and always felt that Second Lady Qi seemed to be a little unhappy today, and the smile on her face was a little stiff.

"I still have to move over, I want to drink my daughter-in-law's tea." Aunt Zheng smiled.

"Which one stopped you from drinking daughter-in-law's tea. The yard here is reserved for you, and after you finish drinking your daughter-in-law's tea, you still come to live. Your house is not spacious, so a girl who is not married must live more spacious. Rong said.

Rong and Second Mrs. Qi insisted on staying, but Aunt Zheng still said that she wanted to move.

"Don't worry, old lady, I'll persuade her again." Second Lady Qi said.

Everyone came out of Yinian Residence, and the second lady of Qi led Aunt Zheng to the prayer hall, and the second grandmother of Qi also came out with Xun Qingran behind.

"Mrs. and Auntie," Second Grandma Qi looked at the backs of Second Mrs. Qi and Aunt Zheng**, "That night, Mrs. went to Auntie's yard, and when she came back, she was happy, and then Auntie went to Auntie's yard again, and then I went to find Mrs., and Mrs. was angry." Could it be that the two old sisters quarreled? What's there to talk about, it's really weird. ”

"If you don't know, you ghost elf, I don't know." Xun Qingran laughed in a low voice. She also felt that there was something strange between Second Mrs. Qi and Aunt Zheng in the past two days, and Zheng Hao'er didn't come out to walk around. She had already guessed that Zheng Hao'er was going to marry in the Qi family, and now Aunt Zheng is moving out again, what happened?

"Second grandmother, the eldest lady invites you over." A little girl came from a distance and blessed Grandma Qi.

"Okay, I'll go over here." Second Grandma Qi said, so she quit Xun Qingran and went to the Yangnian Hall.

A gust of wind blew, Xun Qingran looked up at the sky, and wrapped the cloak on his body tightly.

"Let's go back." Xun Qingran said to Xu Mama and the others beside her, and walked towards Ning Yuanju, "It feels like the sky is about to change." ”
