Xun Qingran was sitting under the window doing needlework, and suddenly Baozhu came in with a pot of water. Xun Qingran saw that Baozhu winked at herself, and knew that she had something to say, so she asked Malt to guard outside the door.

"Girl, I'm just going to play with the incense pendant, I'm afraid things are a little bad."

The incense pendant is the little girl in the pantry room in the Fang family's courtyard, and she is the same age as Baozhu, and the two are very friendly.

"Don't worry, say something slowly." Xun Qingran put down the needle and thread.

"Xiangshen told us to be careful, saying that Aunt Xiao Wu went to his wife to complain crookedly, saying that last night's incident was instigated by you, girl." Baozhu learned what the incense pendant heard, and how Aunt Wu slandered Xun Qingran.

Xun Qingran smiled, this kind of thing is indeed the handiwork of Aunt Wu. It's a pity that she can't get any benefits every time, but she hasn't learned to be good at all.

As a result, his wife reprimanded her, and fined her monthly money, even the second girl's. It's really a recipe for stealing chickens. However, will the wife really be suspicious of the girl? ”

Xun Qingran shook her head, she was not worried at all. Last night's incident was not planned by her in advance, but acted at the opportunity, and there was no flaw. Even if the Fang clan was dissatisfied with her helping Xun Shuzhi, they couldn't suspect anything else.

"It's a pity that the second girl is a person with good looks, good temper, and good needlework. It's just too weak, and there is such an aunt, who has been affected all her life. Kikyo couldn't help but sigh.

Xun Qingran can't fully agree with the words of the bellflower, Xun Shuzhi is not only weak, but she is even more assertive. Originally, Xun Qing saw that Xun Shuzhi was docile, had no bad intentions, and did not hide treachery in her work, so she wanted to make friends with her. How nice it is that two sisters live in the same yard and support each other. But after dealing with Xun Shuzhi a few times, Xun Qingran put an end to this thought.

Aunt Wu only has one daughter, Xun Shuzhi, who is neither young nor favored, so she pins all her hopes for the rest of her life on Xun Shuzhi. Therefore, I am always afraid that this daughter will not be with her, and she will ask about everything. Xun Shuzhi is a good person, yes, but she is too unassertive, as long as Aunt Xiao Wu asks, she doesn't say anything.

And Aunt Wu's temperament really makes Xun Qingran unable to find words to describe it, she can only say that she doesn't know what to do. A few times in front of the Fang family, he was talking about Xun Qingran's private conversation with Xun Shuzhi. Fortunately, what Xun Qingran and Xun Shuzhi said was that they were sisters, so they didn't let the Fang clan really hold the handle.

"Girl, there's one more thing. Fang Caijing sent a fast horse to deliver the letter, and I heard that it was the loyalty of the uncle's side, and a steward of the Anguo Mansion. ”

The Fang family was born in Houmen, and her current nephew is in charge of the Five Cities Terracotta Division in Beijing. And now there are only three sisters left in her generation. The eldest sister of the Fang family and Aunt Zheng married into the Qi family of the Anguo Mansion in the capital. The uncle refers to Xun Junzhao, the eldest son of the Fang family, who is now a pen tip of the military department, and married the girl of the Yongchang family in the early years.

"You're here for a birthday gift?"

Although Xun Qingran asked, she had doubts in her heart. A few days ago, I received a letter from Beijing, and it should be a few days before the birthday ceremony arrives. Moreover, the birthday gift was planned in advance, and there was really no need to send someone to send it quickly.

"Just two or three people, without a birthday gift. The lady invited someone to come in and speak, and then she hurriedly sent someone to the city, saying that she would ask the master to come back immediately. ”

In half a month, it will be Fang's fortieth birthday. Aunt Zheng has already sent her son and nephew, and the Qi family and the Fang family will also send people to give gifts, only the uncle of the Xun family should bring the eldest grandmother back to celebrate his birthday. However, Grandma Xun is seven or eight months pregnant, so it is not suitable to go back and forth. Grandma Xun has already given birth to two girls, and everyone is looking forward to being a boy this time. Fang's had already spoken, not letting them come back, it was important to protect the fetus. Could it be that the eldest grandmother gave birth early?

"Do you know what kind of letter it is? How is the face of the wife? Xun Qingran asked.

Baozhu shook his head, "It was said that Mrs. wrote a handwritten letter, not a message." However, the people in the wife's house were happy to see her. ”

"That's the good news."

In the evening, Xun Qingran and Xun Shuzhi went to Fang's house to say hello. Fang Shi was still sitting on the couch, smiling, listening to Xun Shufang and Xun Shulan talk early.

"I want to ask my mother for the guilt, I was playful yesterday, I had a headache this morning, my body was heavy, I got better after taking the patch, and I couldn't ask my wife to say goodbye." Xun Shufang pleaded guilty for not coming to Fang's house in the morning.

Fang Shi listened with a smile and didn't mind.

"I heard that the eldest brother sent a letter, did the sister-in-law add a golden grandson to the wife?" Xun Shufang looked at Fang Clan with wide eyes, as if she was expecting Fang Clan to nod.

Fang Shi said angrily, "The child's family, you don't know anything, your sister-in-law's delivery date is still a month." ”

"Oh, is that a letter from the aunt of the Qi family, or is it the eldest cousin? How are your aunt and cousin? Mother, when will you take us to the capital, my daughter misses her aunt. I remember meeting once when I was a child, and my aunt gave my fourth sister a piece of jade pendant, and also gave my daughter a piece, which my daughter always carried. ”

"They're all good, just write to talk about family routines." Fang said with a squint.

Xun Qingran listened quietly on the side, it seemed that Xun Shufang didn't know anything inside, so she inquired like this. Fang was obviously in a good mood, but he refused to reveal any news. Hurry up and send a letter to say that it is homely, and no one will believe it when you say it. It seems that it must be good news, but what kind of good news it will be, the Fang clan wants to hide it from everyone.

"Madam, the master is back, and he has arrived at the door."

Fang Shi stood up, Xun Qingran knew that he was going out to greet him, so he hurriedly stood up, and saw Fang Shi tidying up his sideburns and clothes, so he stepped forward to help. Xun Shufang took the lead one step earlier, and Xun Qingran took advantage of the situation to retreat to the side, feeling even more curious. Master Xun has lived in the county town for more than half a month, and said that he would meet friends with literature. There are dramas, wine, and beauties in the county town, and no one is making noise in their ears, and the family thinks that he will not come back until Fang's birthday. But as soon as he got Fang's handwriting, he couldn't wait all night, and came back immediately. What kind of good news will it be if Master Xun is so involved?

Everyone followed the Fang family to the second gate, and Master Xun was getting out of the car. As night fell, lanterns were lit all around. Master Xun has a slender figure, a white skin, a high nose bridge, long eyebrows and phoenix eyes, a brocade robe, standing in the wind, really to have a figure, to have a good look, to have a demeanor, but also full of demeanor, completely a well-maintained middle-aged uncle.

Fang's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward. Master Xun turned his head and helped a delicate figure from the car, and Fang Shi paused for a moment.
