、、、、、、、、、、 When the little steward of the Guogong Mansion heard that he was allowed to go in to eat, he hesitated, and after a day's watch, he was naturally hungry, and he must have hoped to fill his stomach. But the errand was not done, and it was even more of a crime to go back here with a full stomach, and he refused Peony immediately: "Mrs. Xie is kind, the little one is not hungry." ”

Peony knew what he was worried about, so he said, "It's not that I'm not going, but something is delaying." Even if you have to wait, you have to eat enough to have the energy to wait, right? You see, you're here with an empty stomach, and it doesn't look good if others don't know why they see it, right? Why don't you go back and report that we're free? ”

Empty-handed, Cailu naturally didn't dare to go back, hesitated for a moment, and decided to wait after eating his fill. Peony gave Shun Monkey a look, and Shun Monkey stepped forward to hug his shoulder and went aside, and soon called Brother and Brother up.

Peony looked at the sky, the clouds in the sky were very thick, and it was so hot and stuffy that it seemed to be raining. When Jiang Changyang returned, it was time to close the door, and it was impossible to go to the Guogong Mansion again. Peony took the hairpin away, changed into homely clothes, and ordered people to divide the fresh rice, vegetables and fruits brought back from Fangyuan one by one according to their shares, and prepared to send them to Li Manniang, Zhang Wulang, Xue Niang and others on the second day. He also specially asked someone to add a few pastries that the little monk likes to eat, packed the food box, and prepared for Jiang Changyang to personally send it to the Fuyuan monk of Fashou Temple. Although he looks like he is self-satisfied, he accompanies her every day to plant flowers, run away from his mother's house, and do some trivial things, but she always hopes that a friend can dispel it for him.

As soon as the ceremony was prepared, Shu'er came in and said, "The Guogong Mansion sent another person to urge, and he was also pushed by Manager Wu to eat and drink." ”

Peony didn't raise his eyebrows: "Don't care, and that's it." Then he instructed Lin's mother: "Send a copy of this rice, grain, melon and fruit to Mr. Yuan, and say that it is for his family to try it." ”

Mother Lin personally sent the melons and fruits to Yuan Nineteen, and said with a smile when she came back: "Mr. Yuan took it quickly, and he was quite happy to look at it, and said thank you, his family must be very happy." It's really strange to say that this Mr. Yuan, the last time the old slave went to send clothes to him, he wasn't necessarily very happy, but today he was happy with a few melons and fruits. ”

Peony smiled slightly. Sometimes it's so strange, people with gold and silver may not like it much, but some worthless fresh fruits and vegetables make people more happy, because they contain affection, and it is not effortless to return the gift.

Seeing that it was getting late, Mother Lin took a fire sickle and flint to light the lamps and candles everywhere, and said with a smile: "Danniang, the old slave who served Mr. Yuan said that someone came to look for Mr. Yuan two days ago and sent a letter for his family, and Mr. Yuan was very happy after reading it. I don't know what a good thing it is? ”

Now that Yuan Shijiu lives in his house, whether it is in terms of friends or guest staff, they must come forward if Yuan Shijiu has something at home, and Peony said: "Mom will listen to it again, be sure to ask for the details and exactly, and prepare the gift." Speaking of this, her eyes lit up, she didn't hear that Yuan Shijiu had children at home, and Yuan Shijiu's wife was still young.

Mother Lin smiled: "Don't worry about this, the old slave has thought of it before, and he has already explained to Xiaotong, Mr. Yuan will definitely send things home, let him watch it attentively, and come back to tell him." ”

Peony nodded approvingly, with Mother Lin here, she didn't have to worry about many trivial matters, and every time she asked, she took care of it properly. It's just time to have a good talk with Mother Lin, if you don't communicate, you're afraid of more problems in the future. So Peony sat down with Mother Lin, poured her a cup of tea and soup with her own hands, and talked to her about the past with a pleasant face.

Speaking of the past, Mother Lin was still tearful and indignant. Peony waited for her to be sad enough, and then talked about it again, and kept praising Jiang Changyang for being good, and Mother Lin also agreed: "Lang Jun is a good person, and his cultivation is good, even if the old slave relies on the old man to sell the old man a few more words, he has never shown the old slave's face." It's not like Liu Shu, who will scold and kick people if he is not satisfied. Suddenly, he saw Peony looking at himself with a smile, and suddenly he came back to his senses, his old face turned red, and he got up and said, "The old slave knows that he is wrong." ”

Suddenly, I heard the sound of boots outside, and the girls whispered hello, and the shaking voice was infinitely flattering: "Hello Uncle Jiang." Then Jiang Changyang walked out from behind the screen of the Liuqu deer and trees in Yinjiaoguan, and Mother Lin hurriedly saluted and said hello, cleaned her hands and served the tea soup, and respectfully withdrew.

Jiang Changyang was very keen, and immediately saw that there was something different, so he asked Peony with a smile: "Mother Lin, what's wrong?" "In the past, I was very thoughtful when I saw him, but his expression was not so respectful.

Peony smiled: "It's nothing, she just praises you for being a rare good person." She sometimes relies on the old and sells the old, and you never care about her, worried that your generous sex will be bullied by others outside. ”

"If I want to be ruthless, I won't be ruthless at home. She is your nurse, who has served you with all her heart and soul for many years, and does not look at this affection, and gives her face is also face for you. Although Jiang Changyang only smiled slightly, his eyes showed joy, obviously happy to hear this.

"That's what I said to her." Peony asked him how Rokuro was doing.

Jiang Changyang said: "I didn't show my face, I just kept lying on the bed and didn't speak." I talked to myself for a long time, I don't know how much he listened, I listened to the drums, and was about to go home, only to hear him say that he was going to Yangzhou to sell goods, and he would come back to show some people after making a lot of money. Listening to the same childish words, I think he is willing to gamble on this anger and money, so I only asked the store to take care of him, and if something happened, he went home. ”

That's all there is to it. Peony saw that there was fine sweat on his sideburns, so he took a handkerchief and wiped his sweat, and gently slapped the white silk fan to him: "I have prepared fresh melons, fruits and vegetables, and you will send them to Fashou Temple tomorrow?" ”

Jiang Changyang smiled: "It's okay, I haven't quarreled with a monk for a long time." Are you going? ”

Peony shook his head: "I also have a few relatives and friends who want to send it." Then he told him his plan, Jiang Changyang raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you give your cousin's family a copy?" This is the first time you have given a gift after marriage, although it is not valuable, but in the end the meaning is different. You seem to still regard others as enemies. A few more times I will walk around slowly, which is better than awkward. ”

It's not that she didn't think about it, nor did she treat others as enemies, but she always felt that something was wrong, just like she only saw Wu Jiuniang on the day she got married, but she never saw Li Xun and Mrs. Cui. Peony lowered her head and thought for a moment, then raised her eyes and smiled: "Okay, I won't send it myself, it's the same if I ask my cousin to send it over." ”

Shu'er stood outside the screen and whispered: "Mother, Shun Monkey asked people to come and say that the two stewards of the Guogong Mansion have been entertained, and they are now placed in the guest room." ”

Peony pushed Jiang Changyang: "You go and listen to what he has to say?" I don't know what this kind of pressure is for. "The Guogong Mansion has always been a treasure hall for nothing, and it must have come to ask for those few things.

Jiang Changyang drank all the tea and soup, and whispered in her ear: "Remember the bet I made with you, it's time to cash it out." ”

As soon as Peony's heart tightened, his face became hot, and he pushed him out hard, pretending to be dizzy: "What bet?" I don't remember. ”

Jiang Changyang pursed his lips and smiled, "You don't remember, I'll definitely remind you later." ”

Peony sat silently in the room for a while, asked someone to prepare a hot water bath, and burned the incense quilt with his own hands, leaving only a palace lamp, and then put on a vermilion thin robe, sat under the lamp and waited for Jiang Changyang to return.

Jiang Changyang sat on the chair and listened to the monkey's advice: "After the good wine and good food, I will say everything." It's just that I don't go into much detail, the Tao is that when I went back from Fangyuan that day, Jiang Niang fell ill, saying that she was suffering from the wind and cold, and she was just taking medicine before, but then it got worse and worse, and the water and rice did not enter every night, and Aunt Xue waited for two days, and she also fell ill. In addition to this, what the house has done in the past two days is to negotiate with the Xiao family about marriage, and in addition, no guests have come to the door. Mrs. Du is also still recuperating. ”

Jiang Changyang couldn't help frowning, it seemed that it was for Jiang Yunqing's marriage again. Jiang Yunqing probably knew something, and resolutely refused, and the Fenwang Mansion only left that day, in fact, there was no movement at all, and the eight characters had not been skimmed, and the family was in trouble first, and the old lady and Jiang Zhong were in a hurry. What did you tell him and Peony to do? It is nothing more than another use of persecution. He became irritable, and told himself that it was not worth being angry about these people, so he just ignored them. Then he instructed the monkeys: "Tomorrow you will take them to eat and drink as usual, and say that I have not returned, and let them continue to wait." ”

Shun Monkey responded, and was about to retreat, when he suddenly heard a rush of footsteps, Wu hurriedly walked in, and said: "Gong, the palace envoy is here, and I urgently summon you to enter the palace to see the driver." He lowered his voice: "It's Gonggong Shao who is coming, don't enter the door, let you go immediately!" 100,000 urgent! ”

Jiang Changyang glanced out the window, it was pitch black outside, there was no starlight, it was extremely hot, there was no wind at all, and the beige gauze robe on his body was tightly fastened to his body like a cotton robe, and the fine sweat soaked out little by little, which was very uncomfortable.

Wu and Shun Monkey both looked at him, and Jiang Changyang stood up calmly: "Go and entertain, I'll go change my clothes." ”

Wu was anxious: "Let you do it right away!" ”

Jiang Changyang strode outside: "Go and prepare a horse for me!" Before the words fell, the back had disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Peony heard the sound of footsteps, and immediately lay on the table with a hot face and pretended to be asleep, it was best for him to carry her directly to the bed. But hearing the footsteps stop behind him, Jiang Changyang said happily: "Danniang, someone is coming from the palace, I'll go and talk to you." ”
