Chapter Eighty-Seven: Leaving

 、、、、、、、、、、

When I first woke up, it was already sunset, and the sun was gradually darkening outside the window.

"Princess, are you awake?" As soon as she got up at first sight, Lingyu came in from outside, she rolled the curtain halfway, hung it with a white jade hook, and took the coat to put on the first sight.

After the first time I saw it, I got out of bed and freshened up, and Lingyu went to increase the fire of the stove, and when I first saw it, I remembered why Qi Zhen was gone, "What about the prince?" ”

"The prince has already gotten up, reading books outside." Lingyu walked over, combed her hair for Chu Jian, and said in a low voice, "The prince asked the slave and maid not to disturb you and let you continue to sleep, but the old lady came to pass the word and let you and the prince go over for dinner at night, and the slave and maid wanted to come in and talk to you." ”

At first glance, Lingyu glanced at it, this Lingyu really understood himself more and more, and also understood the size and proportion of things, "Did you reply to the old lady's words?" ”

Lingyu pulled up the silky hair that she had seen for the first time, "Come back, the prince said that I will go with you later." ”

When she saw her at first glance, after Lingyu tied her hair for her, she went out of the inner room, and the sky outside was already a little dark, and the candles in the house were lit.

Hearing the footsteps, Qi Zhen raised his head, and seeing that it was the first time he saw him, he smiled slightly, stood up and took her arm, "Awake?" ”

"Well, what are you looking at?" When she first saw that she was hugged by him and sat down, she picked up the book he was reading just now, it turned out to be a book about marching troops, she was not interested in such a book, so she turned a few pages at random and stopped reading.

"Do you understand?" Qi Zhen rested his chin on her shoulder and asked softly.

At first sight, he wrinkled Xiuqiao's nose, and shook his head with lack of interest, "It's not good-looking, it doesn't work much for me, and I don't like it either." ”

Qi Zhen smiled, "Then what books do you like to read?" ”

Chu Jian glanced back at him, "Of course, it's to see some light-hearted and interesting love, and that Shi Niang Ji is very good." ”

Qi Zhen frowned, "How can you read such a book, your mother agrees?" "These books are generally not read by everyone's ladies, and they are really a bit explicit, especially for unmarried women, who almost feel shy when they mention them.

"Huh? Can't you read this book? "I was surprised at first sight, isn't it about the love story of some Qinglou girls and scholars? It's not **, it would be nice if it were**.

Qi Zhen only thought it was funny, how could he compare her with ordinary women, her original thinking was different from ordinary people, "It's good if you like to watch it, but don't mention it often in front of others, let's go to the old lady, it's almost time for dinner at this time." ”

The first time I saw it, Zi Yao put away Qi Zhen's book, and then went to Chunde Garden with Qi Zhen.

Old Madam Ji was very happy when she saw Qi Zhen and them coming, and told Qiongniang to arrange a banquet quickly.

After seeing him for the first time and Qi Zhen to greet Mrs. Ji, they helped her left and right to the main hall.

"I heard that Qi Min's child went to congratulate you today?" After Mrs. Ji sat down, she looked at the first meeting with a smile and asked calmly.

"Yes, old lady." At first sight, she didn't dare to take Mrs. Ji lightly, she didn't know what kind of thoughts this old lady had for her, whether it was kindness or other purposes, and now she was not sure, so she could only treat it with twelve points of spirit.

The two young women standing behind Mrs. Ji were the maids, Yinqin and Wenqin, who were waiting for them at the second gate this morning, and although they didn't raise their eyes to observe them at first sight, they could still faintly feel their gaze projected on themselves.

Everyone in this room is looking at each other, and the surface is calm, but who can see the undercurrent thoughts in the hearts of others?

Old Madam Ji's eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked with a faint smile, "Did it disturb you?" ”

When I first saw him, he replied, "Mrs. Hui, the uncle and sister-in-law sincerely congratulated us and did not disturb us." ”

Old Madam Ji laughed, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes folded slightly, and she looked even more kind and gentle, "It's so good, brothers and concubines must live in harmony with each other, and the family and concubines can prosper, both of you are the lords of this mansion, and you must be more tolerant in everything." ”

Qi Zhen and Hatsumi both whispered yes.

Old Madam Ji's calm eyes glanced deeply at Chu Jian, "They didn't say anything rude in front of you, did they?" ”

At first sight, he still maintained a dignified smile, "Uncle and sister-in-law are very polite." ”

Why would Old Madam Ji be so aware of everything that happened in their house this morning? At first sight, he was silent, as if he didn't think it was strange that the old lady knew these things.

Mrs. Ji looked at Chu Jian with satisfaction and smiled, this daughter-in-law has a tolerant heart, and she is not an ignorant person, she will not take the opportunity to discuss the rights and wrongs of others, how could Qi Min and Zhang's in Xin Yuan not know about her today, but this daughter-in-law did not mention their gaffes, whether she was weak and bullied or saw her temptation and remained silent, her calmness today alone was enough to become the head of their Yunwang Mansion.

"I'm already a vegetarian, and I'm going to wronged the two of you tonight, it's all light dishes, I don't know if you like it." When Mrs. Ji saw the little girl serving the dishes coming in, she stopped the topic and asked Qi Zhen and Chu Jian softly.

Qi Zhen said in a low voice, "It's also good to eat some vegetarian food once in a while." ”

Chu Jian nodded and agreed, she also likes lighter dishes, and she has no interest in the daily life of these high-ranking nobles, she pays more attention to health.

Old Madam Ji nodded with a smile, and asked Yinqin and Wenqin to serve Qi Zhen and Chujian Bucai, and Chujian hurriedly stood up to serve the old lady.

"You sit down to eat, I don't have so many rules here, the family has to be lively, and you have to abide by those rules after a meal, so is it okay to eat?" Old Madam Ji held down the hand she had seen for the first time and didn't let her get up.

Qi Zhen said in a deep voice to the Yinqin sisters who wanted to make vegetables for them, "In this way, we can do it ourselves, you go and help the old lady to make vegetables, you don't have to serve the king and the princess." ”

Yin Qin and Wen Qin looked at Mrs. Ji in embarrassment, the prince didn't let them serve, so they naturally didn't dare to make any more moves.

"Since the prince and princess don't need you to serve, you can also go down, it's okay to have Qiongniang here." Old Madam Ji smiled at them.

Yin Qin and Wen Qin glanced at the corners of their eyes for the first time, bent their knees and bowed to Old Madam Ji, and then retreated.

Qiong Niang prepared vegetables for Mrs. Ji, and ate silently at first sight, Qi Zhen saw that he was a little restrained at first sight, he patted her under the table, asking her not to be so nervous, and also brought her the dishes she usually liked.

Chu Jian glanced at Qi Yi gratefully, but he didn't dare to show it obviously, whether it was modern or ancient, any mother would have an inexplicable jealousy when she saw that her son was good to his wife, and Chu Jian didn't want to make Mrs. Ji feel a little disgusted with herself at this time.

"The two rings that Aunt Du sent you back?" Old Madam Ji glanced at Qi Zhen and the first time they met, but she didn't feel any displeasure at their affection, but Xin'er can treat a woman so sincerely, and a man has a wife who treats him wholeheartedly by his side, which is much stronger than being surrounded by countless women.

When I first saw it, I sighed in my heart, the old lady really knew the situation in Xinyuan, and she was full of confidence that she would not put eyeliner in Xinyuan.

"Back to the old lady, there is no need for so many people to serve in the daughter-in-law's house for the time being, there are many things on Aunt Du's side, and it is always bad to have two right-hand men, so I let Yun Jin and Yun Se serve Aunt Du." Although I was helpless when I saw it, I still smiled lightly.

Old Madam Ji smiled and said, "That's okay, I was still thinking that I would have to leave the palace in a while, and it would be inconvenient for the two girls Yinqin and Wenqin to be with me, so the two of them would be handed over to you to discipline." ”

Qi Zhen and Chu Jian both looked at Old Madam Ji in shock, Qi Zhen frowned slightly, "Why did Mother say that?" Are you leaving the palace? ”

Old Madam Ji has not taken a step out of Qi Mansion for so many years, let alone left, Qi Zhen was even more surprised in her heart, he has just gotten married, why does his mother want to leave?

"I'm not used to living here in Ningcheng, I've always wanted to go back to Saiwai, now that you have a family, I also have a heart, I want to take Qiongniang back to Saiwai in a few days." There was no change on Mrs. Ji's face, she was still so indifferent.

At first sight, she was a little panicked, and knelt in front of Mrs. Ji, "Old lady, but did my daughter-in-law do something wrong?" If there is something that dissatisfies your daughter-in-law, you can say it directly, but don't bother your daughter-in-law like this. ”

How can a mother-in-law leave the house as soon as her daughter-in-law enters the door? At first sight, I don't know if the old lady really wants to leave the palace this season, or if she has an opinion about herself, why did she propose to leave the palace at this time?

"Mother, if our juniors don't do well in some places and make your old man angry, you just have to beat and scold, don't be so tired yourself, it will take several months from Ningcheng to Saiwai, how can you bear it?" Qi Zhen also stood up, looking at Old Madam Ji with some incomprehension.

Old Madam Ji smiled bitterly and asked Qiong Niang to help her see her at first, "Where did you two think of going, I just miss my hometown and want to go back to see, it was really my fault to let you misunderstand like this, and I didn't think it through." ”

"If my mother wants to go outside the Saiwai to see, she will have to wait until after the beginning of spring to decide, now that it is winter, the weather is cold, how can you travel far?" Qi Qi said.

Old Madam Ji's eyes darkened and glanced at Qi Zhen and Chu Jian, "Okay, then let's decide after the beginning of spring!" Sit down and continue eating. ”

Qi Zhen frowned and re-seated, he and Chu Jian glanced at each other, both of them were in a heavy mood, and they didn't understand why the old lady suddenly wanted to leave the palace.

Mrs. Ji also glanced at Qiongniang helplessly, thinking that her decision was really too hasty, and she didn't take into account the feelings of her son and daughter-in-law, it seems that she must find a day to talk to her daughter-in-law in detail, as long as she understands her thoughts at first sight, I believe she will have a way to persuade her.
