Chapter 205: Yongzhou Autumn Rhyme (2)
Everyone knew the news of Qi Maosheng's return, but he returned to Songzhen Courtyard, and no one else knew about it except for the people from Liyuan and Wanqingxuan. Reprinted from my own book
Duan Niang put her mind at ease, let the two of them sleep for a while, and only called Gu Xiyan when it was almost midnight.
The two got up and tidied up again, and then went to Xianji Courtyard to greet Mrs. Xu.
Because it was too late, Mrs. Xu had already fallen asleep, and they stood under the eaves to say hello. This time, without Gu Xiyan's reminder, Qi Maosheng went to Huaiyuan with her.
Mrs. Wei saw them in a thin single shirt.
Gu Xiyan looked at it and couldn't help but pout.
This is the difference between a mother and a mother-in-law, Mrs. Xu, dare to see Qi Maosheng in a single shirt?
The two were about to take tea and say goodbye in response to the occasion, but who knew that Mrs. Wei asked Gu Xiyan, "I heard that you have opened a Zhuji Society?" ”
Gu Xiyan didn't know why she asked this, so she hurriedly said respectfully, "Yes." ”
Mrs. Wei nodded and said, "Do you know how to hang a horse?" ”
Gu Xiyan was stunned for a long time before saying, "No!" ”
Mrs. Wei said softly "um" and said, "National affairs, family affairs, world affairs, everything is inseparable. Sometimes, by having fun with them and listening to what they have to say, you can know a lot of things and learn a lot from them...... If you have time, call them to come and have fun. ”
Do you hope that she can take the lady's route and help Qi Maosheng stabilize people's hearts?
Gu Xiyan responded respectfully "yes".
Then Mrs. Wei's gaze turned to Qi Maosheng's face again, and said coldly: "You are not too young, why do you still think about some things...... This time, the Queen Mother died, but fortunately, marriage was only banned for three months. If it is set for half a year, it turns out that it is not uncommon...... Don't say I didn't warn you, ...... then."
Having said this, Qi Maosheng stood up with angry eyebrows. He said bluntly: "Let's go back!" ”
Gu Xiyan felt that Mrs. Wei's words and Qi Maosheng's attitude were very reverie......
She lowered her eyebrows and followed Qi Maosheng to stand up, and bent her knees to salute Mrs. Wei.
Mrs. Wei didn't care about Qi Maosheng's attitude, and glanced at Gu Xiyan, who was half-squatting, with a smile, and said, "I've always been impatient to socialize, in the future, don't let Zhenniang bring Hongluan to greet me!" I looked at the kid and didn't like it......"
Gu Xiyan was stunned. The slender and delicate eyebrows quickly frowned, and then responded respectfully yes.
Qi Maosheng glanced at Mrs. Wei and walked away. Reprinted from my own book
Seeing this, Gu Xiyan hurriedly followed.
Bao Niang scooped up the red lacquer tray and cleaned up the teacup, and complained: "Madam, you are really, if there is anything, just say it." Now it's time to get angry, don't say anything. It also made the young lady confused......"
Mrs. Wei smiled and stroked the black and shiny handful of green silk on her shoulder, and said in a teasing tone: "Bao Niang." Don't be pecked in the eye by geese all day long. This young lady of our family is shrewd! ”
Bao Niang was stunned.
Mrs. Wei lay down, pulled the corners of the quilt, and said, "She can make a table of good dishes by herself." also borrowed Mama Wang for no reason...... Didn't she just want to tell me that she wasn't a little careful about Hongluan's affairs! ”
Bao Niang smiled and helped Mrs. Wei tuck the quilt corner: "She is the stepmother after all, be cautious, and there is nothing wrong with it!" ”
Mrs. Wei nodded: "If it weren't for that, I would have opened one eye and closed one eye and let her drag me around to play!" ”
Bao Niang covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "I know that your heartache for your daughter-in-law, since this is the case, why don't you just help her......"
Mrs. Wei snorted coldly. said: "If she can't even have an adoptive mother." That's not worthy of being my daughter-in-law! ”
Bao Niang hesitated: "The young lady's heart is too kind!" ”
Mrs. Wei's voice became even colder: "Ci! What is the use of Ci...... can survive. Let's talk about whether to be merciful or not. She is still just newly married, and the days to come are still long...... Wives and concubines compete for favor, and concubines compete for concubines, and there are many sad things. If she can't figure it out now, then I don't have to waste my heart and soul on her in the future, let that Mama Zhao give her the side medicine as soon as possible and give birth to her, so as not to cause my grandson to die in vain......"
Bao Niang's face turned a little pale, and she smiled reluctantly: "Look at what Madam said, Ye is not the kind of person who messes with flowers and grass, and his temperament is also stubborn, and he will not provoke this casually." It was Mrs. Ye back then...... Everyone persuaded him to marry another Yandi noblewoman, but he didn't say it at the time, even if it was fate, he had to fight before he was willing......"
When Mrs. Wei heard this, her face was a little confused, and after a while, she said in a low voice: "Death, after all, it is my own flesh and blood...... To be a father, how can there be no heartache, and how can there be willing...... Which grandfather of the country, when he first married the daughter of Xizhao, didn't he want to fight for land...... But in the end, people don't have the same heart with you, why should you fight...... After a year or two, eight years and ten years, several generations and generations, the heart is getting harder and harder...... Thinking that in the past, my ancestors did the same thing, and when it came to me, they just followed the old rules...... If you find an excuse, you can do it with peace of mind...... You don't know, when Mao Sheng agreed to Xizhao's marriage, I, how sad I was...... In the future, those children will also have my blood on their bodies...... I even have the heart to eat Xu Rong......"
Under the faint light, there were crystal tears flickering on Mrs. Wei's gorgeous ground!
There are two days left before the Autumn Festival, the moon and stars are scarce, and the brilliance is like practice.
Qi Maosheng took Gu Xiyan's hand and walked slowly to Songzhen Courtyard.
"Xiyan, Mrs. Wei's words, don't take it to heart." Qi Maosheng said apologetically, "She has always disliked Hongluan, probably because of your care during this time, Hongluan has improved." Zhen Niang wants to carry her to Mrs. Wei and walk around to improve their relationship......"
This idiot Qi Maosheng!
Gu Xiyan looked at him with a twinkle in his eyes and smiled with his mouth covered.
Under the moonlight, Gu Xiyan's delicate eyebrows and eyes are smiling, like an epiphany that blooms quietly at night. It is white and immaculate, and it is full of blooming pleasure.
Qi Maosheng felt that his heart was beating hard, and the feast just now came to his mind.
His hands tightened, his voice was a little dark and hoarse, and he said, "Let's go back quickly!" ”
Gu Xiyan saw that Qi Maosheng's eyes were so bright and scorching, how could there be anything in his heart that he didn't understand!
She laughed even harder.
Qi Maosheng pulled her to the pear orchard in a hurry.
When he walked to the hall, Gu Xiyan glanced at Wan Qingxuan meaningfully.
At the foot of the half-light and half-dark moon cave wall, she actually saw a pair of dusty butterfly shoes. A blinding glow in the moonlight.
Gu Xiyan stopped in shock.
Qi Maosheng was stunned by the ground, and turned around and said, "What's wrong?" Am I in too much of a hurry! ”
The tall and majestic figure blocked Gu Xiyan's sight.
Or maybe she was wrong, or maybe someone else?
Gu Xiyan guessed, and took advantage of the situation to hug Qi Maosheng's waist and probe behind him, wanting to see clearly. The soft body was clinging to him, indescribably comfortable...... Sunset. Rare initiative ...... But this is in the hall, and. There was also a large group of mammas and maids around him......
Qi Maosheng lowered his head, and saw Gu Xiyan's crow and crow's green silk under the crow-like neck.
As soon as his heart moved, he remembered Xiyan's deceptive frost and snow, and his skin was as white as porcelain...... If in the moonlight...... I'm afraid it's a jade beauty......
Qi Maosheng chuckled lowly. Stretching out his arms, he hugged Gu Xiyan horizontally, and whispered in her ear: "Are you tired, I'll carry you back......"
Gu Xiyan didn't have time to pay attention to Qi Maosheng's warm tone, and put his arms around his neck and poked out half of his head to look at the Moon Cave.
The azure hem of the skirt fluttered, revealing her white shoes, and she disappeared lightly into the night......
Gu Xiyan suddenly understood Fang Shaoqin's mood and feelings.
In the second half of the night that day, Gu Xiyan's coquettish anger came from time to time in the main house of the pear orchard: "No, no, no, no, I can't do it......"
"Why not. You see. Isn't this a good ......" Qi Maosheng's voice was full of satisfaction.
"You. You give me, give me an honest explanation," Gu Xiyan said in an unsteady voice, "Go, go to Gaochang, isn't it, is there someone to entertain you...... I learned a mess of things, so I came back and tossed and tossed me......"
Qi Maosheng laughed and laughed, there was emotion in his voice, he was silent, Gu Xiyan called his name coquettishly: "Qi Maosheng...... Are you bullying me......"
Qi Maosheng said vaguely: "Little fool, I don't bully you, well, who ...... bully?"
"You can't do this...... Gu Xiyan's voice was a little aggrieved, "I can't do it well......"
"Really! I really can't," Qi Maosheng said with a sly expression in his voice, "but I like this situation......"
After a while, Gu Xiyan moaned lowly: "Qi Maosheng, Qi Maosheng, you bastard......"
Duan Niang, who was standing under the eaves, smiled with satisfaction, and she took a few steps forward lightly and stood in the hall.
The moonlight shone in obliquely, half-light and half-dark on her face.
She waited for a moment before a woman's figure hurried in.
Duan Niang said coldly: "Xingyu, what's the matter?" ”
That woman was Xingyu.
She took a breath, took a breath, and then said unhurriedly: "Aunt Hui's words are clear, and it is said that people have been keeping an eye on the movement here...... That's why I broke in. ”
Duan Niang looked at the doorless moon cave and fell silent.
Xingyu stood beside her with her hands down, not moving.
After a long time, Duan Niang said coldly: "Let's go down...... Remember to take care of people...... Early tomorrow morning, I will invite people from both sides to come and watch, and beat me slowly until I lose my breath......"
Xingyu hesitated: "There are suddenly two people missing from the third girl's house...... If you ask...... I'm going to find an excuse! ”
Duan Niang smiled faintly and said, "Why bother, just hit it directly...... Those who don't know don't need to know, and those who know will naturally know!
"Yes!" Xingyu bowed respectfully, then turned to leave.
After entering the second gate of Cui's residence, she felt that her vest was cold.
It turned out that his back was already soaked.
Pink Ticket, Pink Ticket, where are you...... (Tearfully bows his head and slips away)
