"What, now you want to go back to the capital? Take that aunt of yours with you. Ji Yunyun raised his eyebrows slightly and said deliberately.

"Fun is addictive, isn't it?" Qi Cheng looked at her with a headache and said.

Ji Yunyun smiled and bent his eyes, pushing him away to get up from the bed, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?" I'm going to have people bring food and hot water in. ”

"No, I'll just go myself." Qi Cheng held her down, got up and went to open the door and instructed the people outside.

After eating and washing, Qi Cheng blew out the candlelight and went to the kang. Ji Yunyun slept a lot during the day, and couldn't sleep at night, so he pulled Qi Cheng and talked for a while, and the two of them rested.

Hu Qiao'er listened to the laughter and whispering from next door, her heart was blocked, and she tossed and turned before falling asleep in the middle of the night.

The next day she woke up early, washed up and paid attention to the movement next door, and waited until it was almost time, when the closed door of the next room opened, and the maids went in and out with copper basins and hot water.

"Miss Hu, it's time for breakfast." Xiaohong came in with a food box.

Seeing Xiaohong put the dishes on the table in the same way, Hu Qiao'er touched her empty stomach and couldn't help asking, "Do you have breakfast so late every day?" ”

"Not necessarily, it all comes according to the time when Mrs. gets up, if Mrs. gets up early, breakfast will be earlier, and if Mrs. gets up late, then breakfast will be later." After Xiaohong finished placing it, she put away the food box, glanced at her, and paused: "Miss Hu had better match the time with Mrs. Hu in the future, there is only one cook in this courtyard, and she can only eat the freshest meals with Mrs. ”

"Got it." Hu Qiao'er was a little unhappy, but she also knew that the lady here had the final say, so she had to nod sullenly.

Hu Qiao'er was still paying attention to the movement next door while having breakfast, she hadn't heard Qi Cheng's voice since she got up, and after breakfast, Chunzhi came over and said that Mrs. invited her over.

She went to the next door, Ji Yunyun was sitting by the window embroidering a child's belly pocket, looked up at her and lowered her head: "Sit down." ”

She sat down across from her, and Chun Tao handed the tea and put it next to her.

"Did you get used to staying last night?" Ji Yunyun kept sewing and thread in his hand, and asked without raising his head.

"It's alright, thank you, ma'am." Hu Qiao'er replied, her eyes turned around the room, and she didn't see Qi Cheng's figure.

Ji Yunyun put down the needle and thread, took a sip of the tea in his hand, and asked lightly, "Are you looking for the prince?" ”

Hu Qiao'er retracted her gaze, folded her hands and pursed her lips, "I want to meet Brother Acheng, he ...... Absence? ”

Ji Yunyun put down the teacup and said: "I went out early in the morning, the bandit leader on the hill outside the city has some clues, he will be very busy recently, and he will not have much time to stay in the courtyard." ”

"Really? Clues were found so quickly. Hu Qiaoer's folded hands tightened, and she said with some surprise.

Ji Yunyun raised her eyebrows and looked at her, "What, is it fast?" Don't you want to get rid of that bandit leader sooner and go back to the capital with us? ”

"It's not." Hu Qiao'er hurriedly shook her head, lowering her eyes to hide the panic in her eyes, "I naturally hope to get rid of that bandit leader as soon as possible, but I am a little reluctant to leave my father and mother." ”

"Then you can take advantage of this time to go back and see them more." Ji Yunyun stared at her for a moment, waved his hand and said, "It's okay for me to look for you, just ask, you go out, do whatever you want, if you go out, just talk to the maid." ”

"Yes, ma'am." Hu Qiaoer got up, turned around and went out.

Waiting for her to go out, Chun Tao closed the door, came over and whispered: "Madam, I think this Hu girl is very problematic, why is she reluctant to leave her father and mother, but I look at her mother yesterday when she sent her over, I don't look reluctant, I think she must have lied about the child's affairs, so I am afraid that the prince will find the bandit leader and know the truth." ”

Ji Yunyun's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and ordered: "Let Feng Ji follow her quietly, and see where she has gone out and who she has seen." ”

"Yes, madam, I'm just going to tell Guard Feng that sooner or later I'll grab her pigtails." Chun Tao listened to the order and went out in a hurry.

As Ji Yunyun said, for a few days, Qi Cheng went out early and returned late, and Hu Qiaoer rarely saw a figure, even if he did, he just took a faint look at her, and went into the next room. In the past, Brother Ah Cheng would talk to her from time to time, but now, when he met occasionally, he ignored her and became more and more cold to her.

She is not very comfortable living in this mansion, the time of daily meals should be according to the time of the lady, the daily meals are also liked by the lady, and the people in the courtyard are also indifferent to her, and they don't take her seriously at all.

When her mother came to see her, she told all these complaints.

Yu Shi listened and said, "That mother will take you back to live?" ”

Hu Qiaoer hesitated, although living here is unsatisfactory, but the warm house, soft bed, exquisite meals, and the service of the subordinates, as long as this kind of life is passed, I don't want to go back to the hard days of getting up early and making tofu in the dark.

Seeing that she was unwilling, Yu Shi had no choice but to say: "Since you don't want to go back, then live here well, and let you serve and please Mrs. carefully, have you done it?" There are also people in the yard, I see that those big families will reward the next people, these silver are for you, you should reward when you should give a reward, don't worry about money, don't grieve yourself. As he spoke, he took out the money bag from his sleeve and handed it to his daughter.

"Mother, you are the best for me." Hu Qiaoer's eyes were red and she said with emotion.

Yu touched her head and sighed: "Showing your children, of course you have to be good to your own children, but you should also be obedient and sensible, and let your mother and your father worry less." You said that you were pregnant with the child of the son, but he clearly didn't like you, worried that you would go to the capital in the future, we wouldn't see each other, I don't know if you were doing well, and your father and I couldn't sleep well. ”

Hu Qiao'er had red circles in her eyes and choked up: "Mother, I'm sorry for your ......"

"Don't say that." Yu Shi hugged his daughter into his arms, "It's not what you think about getting pregnant, in fact, it's quite lucky, you are pregnant with the child of the world, as the saying goes, you would rather be a rich concubine than a poor wife, that is a palace, not an ordinary rich family." What's more, although the prince is cold, but after getting along in the past few months, he is a reliable and affectionate man, and that lady is also very kind-hearted, with the reason why we once saved the prince, you followed to the capital, and they will not treat you harshly, now I hope that other people in the palace are also good people like them. If it weren't the son of the world that day, but another man, I'm afraid your current situation would be much worse. ”

Hu Qiaoer's eyes flashed, she reached out to cover her lower abdomen, buried herself in her mother's arms and did not speak.

On this day, she went back to the tofu shop to see her father and mother, and heard that she was back, and her good sister Lin Hongmei, the daughter of the blacksmith shop next door, came to see her.

"Qiao'er, I haven't seen you for a few days, your skin has become better, and your complexion has improved a lot." Hongmei took her hand and sat down on the edge of the bed, looked at her and praised.

Hu Qiao'er touched her cheek with a smile, "Really?" Why didn't I find out? ”

"Yes, yes." Hongmei nodded vigorously and looked at her enviously, "Qiao'er, you are so lucky, you can save someone casually is the prince of the palace, my father and mother are now urging me to go to the river every day, I wish I could also save a big man back, and then I can live a good life with him." ”

Hu Qiao'er smiled, "What's the matter, I went with it to be an aunt, and I wasn't a serious lady." ”

Hongmei's eyes widened, "Qiao'er, you're still not satisfied, you're an aunt of the palace, and you're not an aunt of an ordinary rich family." You are already extremely lucky, the serious lady of the palace, that is not something that ordinary people can do, you need a famous lady in the capital. ”

"I'm just saying that it's already a great blessing to be able to enter the palace." Hu Qiaoer held Hongmei's hand and explained.

Hongmei nodded, "Yes, and you are still pregnant now, mothers and children are expensive, in the future, you will have more good days." ”

The two sat down and said a few more words, and Hu Qiaoer said: "I'm bored in the yard all day long, and I want to go shopping on the street, Hongmei, you can accompany me." ”

Hongmei looked at her belly hesitantly and said, "You are pregnant now, what if you bump into the child in your belly on the street?" ”

"It's going to be fine, I've got someone to follow." Hu Qiao'er took her hand and shook it, "Come with me, good Hongmei." ”

"Okay then." Hongmei thought about it and agreed.

Hu Qiao'er went out today, Feng Ji thought that his wife had instructed her to quietly see where she went and who she saw, so he personally drove her in a carriage. When he heard that they were going to the streets, he drove his carriage out into the streets.

When they arrived on the street, Hu Qiaoer and Hongmei first went to the ready-to-wear store for a walk, and then went to the jewelry store next to them. Hu Qiaoer had the silver given by her mother in her hand, and she was very arrogant, not only bought clothes and jewelry, but also invited Hongmei to go to the teahouse to drink tea and eat snacks.

After drinking tea for a while, Hu Qiaoer was a little anxious, said to Hongmei, asked the shopkeeper for directions, and went to the backyard to find a thatched house.

Coming out of the thatched house, she lowered her head and wiped the water droplets on her hands with a handkerchief as she walked, not paying attention, and bumped into the person opposite.

"You ......" She quickly covered her lower abdomen, took a few steps back, and raised her head to scold the visitor, but when she saw the appearance of the visitor, her face turned pale.

The person who came was a young man, with a shallow scar on his eyebrows, he saw Hu Qiao'er, stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, "Yo, little beauty, meet again." ”

Hu Qiao'er looked left and right, and when she saw that there was no one, she hurriedly pulled him to hide behind a big tree, and asked in a low and eager voice, "Why did you come here?" ”

The man smiled and said, "Why can't I come here?" The little beauty wants to go to the government to sue me? Are you willing? As he spoke, he reached out to touch her face.

Hu Qiao'er turned her head to dodge and said angrily: "Don't you know that the government is arresting you?" Now that they have a clue, you don't want to go back and think about it, just wait to go to prison! ”

"Got a clue?" The man raised an eyebrow, "What clues?" Where did you hear that? ”

Hu Qiao'er said with a stiff face: "I don't know what clues I have, but the news is absolutely reliable, you know that I can't lie to you, you go back and check if there is any omission." ”

"Of course I know that the little beauty can't lie to me, after all, if I am caught, your secret will be shaken out." The man took advantage of her not paying attention, but still reached out and touched her face lightly, "I'm leaving, don't think too much about me." ”
