Ning lives far away

Xun Qingran sat on the couch, Fusheng and Xuan'er were next to her on the left and right, and the three of them looked at the big baskets and small baskets on the ground, and listened to Laixi's continuous talk.

"The betel nut taro in Lipu, the chestnut in Qinling, the walnut, pine nut and hazelnut in Xing'anling are all just sent by the old guest. The second master saw that these were still clean, so he picked the freshest and best and gave them to grandma, Sister Xuan, and Brother Fu. ”

Xun Qingran instructed the little girl to pour tea for Laixi, and asked people to move a small pestle for Laixi to sit on.

Laixi didn't sit down, just smiled and took a sip of a cup of tea, which caused the little girl next to her to laugh.

"Is the second master okay lately? You've been following the second master, where have you been lately? Xun Qingran asked Laixi.

"The second master is fine. Because of the uncle's family affairs, the second master didn't go out for a while. The second master asked the little one to thank his grandmother, and the second master had already eaten the banquet that grandma had just sent. Even the small ones are borrowed from the light. "Come to the joy of the road.

"Second Master is going to stay here for a few days this time?"

"The second master plans to take advantage of the fact that it is not very cold, saying that he is going to the northeast, so he will come to stay with his wife for a day or two."

Laixi handed over everything clearly, and then retired to Xun Qingran. Kikyo had already taken out a bulging purse and came to collect it happily.

"These things, where can I eat them?" Xun Qingran looked at the things on the ground and instructed the bellflower, "Put them all away, you take out some of them, and there is no yard to send one." ”

"Grandma, according to the maid, this is not necessary." Kikyo said with a smile, "The second master of the Zheng family must have sent them all, although there may not be so many." ”

Xun Qingran nodded, "You're right." I didn't think about it for a moment. ”

Cheng Yuenlong's thoughtfulness, carefulness and thoughtfulness have always been so.

Kikyo took people to clean up everything, Xun Qingran asked people to light two more candles, took the two children on the couch, and picked the easy-to-understand story in the book, which will be read to the two children.

There are two charcoal basins in the ground, which warm the house. The nurse prepared a hand stove and held the two children in her arms. Mama Xu and Kikyo are still sitting on the ground, or doing needlework, or checking accounts.

A story is told. Xuan'er yawned slightly, held her face with both hands, and lay on Xun Qingran's lap.

"Daddy should be back." Xuan'er pouted and said in a long voice.

Fusheng also looked at Xun Qingran with wide eyes.

Xun Qingran knew that the two children missed Qi Yu.

Qing Ran nodded, "Your father will be back soon." So, for the past two days, you both have to stay in the house obediently, write and study, and don't run around, you know? Daddy came back to check your homework. Seeing that you have grown, Daddy will be happy. ”

Xuan'er grinned and nodded.

Xun Qingran gently pinched her daughter's chubby little face.

The candlelight suddenly flashed twice, and it turned out that the candle center was long. Kikyo stood up, took the small silver scissors, and cut the candle in half.

Although it was earlier than before, Xun Qingran saw that Xuan'er and Fusheng were a little tired, so she put away the scroll and asked the nurse to take the two children down to rest.

"Grandma should have rested earlier." Mama Xu, Kikyo and others also packed up the needlework.

Xun Qingran nodded, "You all disperse." ”

Mama Xu went out with the jewel and went to check all over the courtyard. The bellflower and aster stayed behind to serve Xun Qing to dye and freshen up. Qi Yu was not there, and the big girls of bellflower, aster, and baozhu took turns to be on duty in the cubicle outside her bedroom, and tonight it was bellflower and aster on duty.

…………

The weather was getting colder day by day, Xun Qingran was lying on the bed with the quilt and didn't fall asleep for a while. Outside the window, the sky was overcast, there was no moon, not even a few stars could be seen, only the cold wind that was blowing tighter and tighter. The room was warm, the smoke cage next to the bed was burning with silver frost charcoal, the fragrant warm quilt was baked, and there were two soup women under his feet, but Xun Qingran still felt that something was missing, and he felt a little cold. If Qi Yu was in the ...... at this time, Xun Qingran sighed softly. I don't know where Qi You is at this time, is he already on the way back, and if he also has an incense bed and a warm pillow......

The lights of each courtyard were extinguished one after another, and the entire Qi Mansion fell into darkness, making the courtyard even deeper. From a distance, only the occasional night watchman passes by with a lantern, like a firefly.

Suddenly, a group of people with lanterns and torches broke in from outside, led by Mama Zhang. Mama Zhang actually wore a red makeup gown today, with two cockscomb flowers on her head, dressed strangely, like a matchmaker who wants to say goodbye.

"The hour has come, and it's time for Grandma to hit the road." Mama Zhang chattered and laughed, brought a bowl of strangely colored soup to Xun Qingran, and forced her to drink it.

Xun Qing was so angry that she tried hard to push Mama Zhang away, but somehow, she couldn't use her strength.

"You slave, who gave you the courage to persecute me like this." Xun Qingran reprimanded Mama Zhang, "If I have a good one, none of you can escape." ”

"I commanded it." A cold voice sounded, and Second Lady Qi walked over from behind the crowd.

Xun Qingran couldn't help but take a breath, Second Lady Qi pounced on her face with white powder, her eyebrows and eyes were not very clear, and only a bloody mouth was particularly eye-catching.

"Madam, what am I sorry for you, you have repeatedly hurt me like this." Xun Qingran asked Second Lady Qi.

Second Mrs. Qi sneered, "I am a mother-in-law, change my daughter-in-law, and change it when I say it." ”

"Madam, since I entered the door, I have never been disrespectful in the slightest. My wife was embarrassed many times, and I endured all of them, and I didn't even dare to say a word to people for the sake of my wife's reputation. Sisters and concubines get along with each other, and I am humble everywhere. Mrs., getting along all these years is an iron-clad heart, and it should melt a little bit. How must you take my life, ma'am, do you have a conscience? ”

Second Lady Qi's face was expressionless, and she raised her hand and struck her chest, the sound was like hitting a stone, gold and iron object.

Xun Qingran was a little desperate, Second Lady Qi's heart was really iron.

"The old lady came to save me, and the fourth master is coming back soon. You can't move me. Xun Qing said.

As if in response to Xun Qingran's words, the door creaked, and Ning Xin walked in outside wearing a set of big red pomegranate Baizi's Ji clothes.

"Sister Qingran," Ning Xin walked up to Xun Qingran, "Sister Qingran, you can go alive." Brother Xiao Qi was originally mine, and everything about you is mine. ”

Ning Xin said, laughing wildly.

"Don't you think about it." Xun Qingran, "Brother Rouge won't want you." It's useless for you to ask the emperor and the queen mother to call the shots. ”

Ning Xin's face changed suddenly, "What do you call Brother Xiao Qi......

"Good girl, don't talk to her too much, it's serious to send her on the road quickly." Mama Gu suddenly appeared like a ghost dressed in white.

"Mama Gu......, oh, no, Song, Mama?"

"It's the minion, grandma, you remember the minion." Mama Gu's face stretched out in front of Xun Qingran, and suddenly became another face, even older and more hideous, it turned out to be Mama Song.

"It's not true," Xun Qingran shouted.

Second Lady Qi and the others all became impatient, and they even slapped their chests together, making a huge snapping sound.

Xun Qingran opened her eyes suddenly, and the room was dark, and she was the only one.

It turned out to be a dream, and she had a nightmare.

Xun Qingran touched his forehead, but the snapping sound was still ringing in his ears.

Xun Qingran followed the sound and looked out the window, it was also pitch black outside, and it was not real, but the crackling sound seemed to be somewhat familiar.

There was a sound outside, and it was Kikyo who had put on his clothes and walked in with a candlestick.

"Grandma, the maid heard a voice...... "Kikyo said.

Xun Qingran suddenly remembered something, "Open the window and see if the snow is back." ”

…………

Ning Yuanju turned on the lamp in the upper room, and Xun Qingran looked at the snow ball that came in from the window. There was a bitter chill on the body of the snow ball. It lightly touched Xun Qing's hand with its mouth, and then turned its head to touch its own paws with its mouth.

"Good Xuetuan, you're scaring me." Xun Qing saw the small bamboo tube tied to the feet of the snow group, turned from surprise to joy, and hurriedly took the bamboo tube from the feet of the snow group.

When I opened the bamboo tube, it was a letter rolled into a roll.

Looking at the familiar handwriting, Xun Qingran was a little stunned for a while.

"Grandma, take a look, what the fourth master wrote back." Aster urged beside her.

Xun Qingran unfolded the letter......

"Ying Ze is fine, the fourth master is rushing back," Xun Qingran looked at the letter quickly, "I haven't met Chen De and his party yet." ”

"Does the fourth master know about Ning Xin?" Mama Xu heard the voice in the ear room and rushed over.

Xun Qingran nodded. Ying Ze took Ning Xin into Beijing, Ning Xin disappeared halfway, and a map drawn by Ying Ze was also missing. The fourth master told me to be careful, and he said that he would come back day and night. ”

"The fourth master has brought a few divine horses with him, and no matter how fast Chen De and his party are, they can't be faster than the fourth master. Looking at this date, the fourth master will soon be able to meet Chen De. If the fourth master knew the situation in the house, he would speed up his footsteps......" Mama Xu said.

Xun Qingran nodded.

"Either way, knowing that they are all well, I am half relieved."

…………

The next morning, Xun Qingran sent a letter to Tang Younian, Tang Younian came to Ning Yuanju, discussed with Xun Qingran for a while, and then still went out of the house to arrange things. Fusheng and Xuan'er woke up and saw that the snow ball had returned, and they both happily circled around the snow ball.

After breakfast, Xun Qingran went to Yinianju and showed Qi Yu's letter to Rong's family. The two calculated the date of Qi Yu's entry into Beijing.

"I know that child's temper. That is, in the past two days. Rong said.

Xun Qingran nodded and said yes.

Rong's energy is getting worse and worse today, and there is some blue and black under his eyes, which he has never seen in Rong's body. Xun Qingran felt a little sad in her heart, and accompanied Rong Shi to talk for a while, and Rong Shi couldn't support it. Mama Jiang brought medicine from outside and served Rong's to eat it. Xun Qing waited for the Rong family to fall asleep, and then returned to Ning Yuanju.

Xue Tuan was sleeping in a nest specially prepared for him on the couch. Xuan'er lay next to Xuetuan, smoothing Xuetuan's hair, and whispering to Xuetuan. Fusheng sat honestly at the small table, painting red.

As soon as Xun Qingran sat down on the couch, he saw Baozhu running in from outside.

"Grandma, it's not good, Sister Kikyo and Sister Kikyo were arrested by the people of the Prayer Hall.".
