Chapter Twenty-Three: Aunt Gui in Caolian Mansion (I)
Su Niang was supported by Banye, all the way to Lian Zhenyun's main house, and couldn't help Xiaoning Temple? Lotus incense is good, I didn't get pregnant for four or five years, which temple in Yangzhou City she didn't incense for me? It also made her wish. ”
Banye smiled: "Mrs. Jiren has its own celestial phenomena, we ...... Our grandmother can't be incense, but my wife can get pregnant......"
Ziding opened the blue embroidered Hunan curtain on the door of the main room and let Qi Su Niang in.
The furnishings in the main room are almost the same as those in the lotus fragrance room, but they are a color of rosewood furniture, very tough and calm, and there are swords and muskets hanging on both walls, with a layer of dead floating light. Qi Su Niang's footsteps paused slightly, and she said confusedly: "This is the main house of the big boss?" Lianxiang is not here, I'll go to Aunt Gui's yard."
"Madame's concubine greets Madame, Madame is going back to the capital this time, and you can see my sister-in-law?"
Qi Su Niang heard a charming and crisp voice behind her, turned around with a smile, and helped up Sister Gui'er, who was saluting her, "Don't say it, Yuegou'er also asked me to bring you a letter and a box of ruler headdresses."
Fortunately, there were not enough people with the sedan chair, so I didn't ask them to carry their luggage together, otherwise, they would all be lost on the street. ”
Sister Gui'er was dressed in brocade clothes, the red mole on her eyebrows was delicate, and while giggling, she helped Qi Su Niang into the main room, "The courtyard of the concubine is newly pasted, and the concubine herself is still sitting in the water pavilion, so I don't dare to ask Mrs. to come over." The master and the second master are both at the gate, and the lady can sit down for the time being. Madam, I heard that Third Master Qi has a concubine who is pregnant with a child? It's a great event. ”
Qi Su Niang was full of smiles, sat down on the rosewood arhat bed, and took the Lu'an tea sent by Banye, "Isn't it?" My brother is in his thirties, so he can finally leave a legacy for the Qi family. Before my mother left, she said that this is the matter, if Caiyun can give birth to a son peacefully, I am worthy of my father. ”
"I'm not afraid of Mrs. being annoyed, it is that Caiyun girl who gave birth to a daughter, and she is also the root of the Qi family. Madame is not also a woman, and who dares to say that Madame is not the queen of the Qi family? Isn't Qi Sanye's brother and sister? ”
Qi Su Niang's eyebrows were crooked. Laughing from ear to ear. "Aunt Gui is right. is a daughter, and she is also a stumbling child of the Qi family. I see that Caiyundi has a very big belly. Maybe it's still a dragon and phoenix fetus......"
Sister Gui covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled. "That's a good idea. Have a son and a daughter. After a year or two, the wife also gave birth to a boy and a woman. You can always make a pair. This cousin's cousin. Kiss on kiss. Madame and Qi Sanye are brother and sister again. It's in-laws again. The better, the better. ”
Billy was pulled aside by Half Leaf and Seed Ding and sat on his foot. She watched Qi Su Niang holding Sister Gui'er's hand and talking. Sweep over the empty main house. I glanced at the courtyard where no one was in or out of the Hunan curtain. He smiled at the seeds: "Aren't you the most fun-loving? Seeing that the sky is pestering your grandmother to take you out to play. Why didn't you go to Tianning Temple this time? Didn't you say last time that you couldn't get tired of looking at the apricot blossoms in Tianning Temple? ”
The seed is stunned. Lowering his head, he said vaguely: "Grandma and Aunt Rui...... I ......"
Banye hurriedly smiled: "Sister Bi'er doesn't know. Grandma used to walk around the house when she was a child. Let's play around. I'm too tired to do it. Grandma was kind to both of us. It's useless to just laugh at us. Lost we rest at home. Come back and hang out in a few days. ”
Bill smiled and nodded. He asked the seed again. "Uncle Lian went to Beijing. Madame Lian was also a little free. How often do you walk around those houses? Have some fun, and listen to it. Eye-opening. ”
Ziding hesitated: "That is, the same knowledge of the Liu Mansion with the Wang Mansion, the Zheng Mansion, and the Cao Si...... Grandma loved it."
"Grandma likes to be lively, but she doesn't listen to those Kunqu opera groups on weekdays, she only likes to listen to the Ge dialect groups, and she always wants to go to these mansions. We have also listened to a lot, and I can memorize all the "Water Flooding Golden Mountain", "Mulian Saves Mother", and "The Story of the Carp". Banye grinned, "Sister Bi'er, I'll sing you a paragraph, it's no worse than that horn......"
Li Siqin rode his horse and stood on the street of Gongzi, watching the government officials and the people disperse the crowd of people who took advantage of the fire to rob, and the Yangzhou scholars slowly retreated from the ancestral hall of the Zuo family, and said: "Fortunately, the Lord of Futai came back at the right time, otherwise not only the Yamen will be demolished, but the ancestors of the Zuo family will also suffer." ”
Lian Dachuan wanted to laugh a little, looked at Lian Zhenyun's face, and didn't dare to make a sound.
Li Siqin turned his head, "Big brother, forget it." Haijing is getting better and better now, my sister-in-law has been cautious all these years, Rui'er has been with you for more than ten years, and she has not made any mistakes...... She's back...... You don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha......"
Lian Zhenyun snorted heavily, "If you don't look at these" with a flick of the whip, galloped across the terrier street, turned into the southern willow roll, and went straight to the side of the Xiaoqinhuai River.
There was a sharp sound of horses' hooves, and more than a dozen horses from the yamen of the government and Taiwan quickly scattered into the alleys everywhere, as if they were looking for someone.
There was still half a mile away from Caolian Mansion, and Li Siqin saw a tattered blue nickname official sedan chair walking swaying in front of him, and was taken aback, "What's the matter?" Isn't that her palanquin? She's not going to run into all this mess? While talking, he hurriedly rode his horse to chase after him, but he saw that it was the local family in his own house who carried the sedan chair.
"What's going on?" Lian Zhenyun asked with a frown.
"If you go back to your father, when Mrs. Futai entered the city, she bumped into the scholars to make trouble, and lost the sedan chair and fled to our house. The big steward asked the little ones to look for the sedan chair. ”
Lian Zhenyun dismounted in front of the mansion, and Lian Dahe immediately greeted him, and said in a low voice: "Xiaodi only said that he went to Tianning Temple to make incense......
Lian Zhenyun entered the second gate, got on the flying bridge, crossed the flower gate, walked slowly along the blue brick road, and stopped in front of the main house. He looked at Li Siqin, who was grinding at the bottom of the stairs, "Why don't you go in?" Didn't you yell that you hadn't spoken to her in months? ”
Li Siqin smiled bitterly: "She wants to ask me about my child."
What should I do? It's noon, and it's time to come back to Tianning Temple to make incense. ”
Lian Zhenyun was silent for a long time, "It turned out that she had always been cautious, so she put Haijing by her side, and I won't be in the capital for a month or two......" turned his head to look at Lian Dahe, "If you don't do anything in the main room, Rui'er will also call back to be a concubine, and Haijing will always be by Sister Gui'er's side since then." With that, he turned and walked towards the garden outside the flower gate.
Li Siqin looked at his back, cracked his mouth, and couldn't speak. He looked at the door of the main room, then at Lian Dahe, hesitated for a while, finally did not go up the steps, turned around and walked towards his own courtyard.
Lian Dahe smiled bitterly, and was thinking about how to round the field in front of Mrs. Futai, when Lian Dachuan walked in and whispered: "The people in the Futai Yamen have come over one by one and are waiting outside the door." ”
Lian Dahe nodded, opened the curtain and entered the main room, and said with a smile: "Madam, the officials in the government are looking for Mrs. all over the street......
Sister Gui'er stood up and said with a smile: "Lord Futai thinks it's in a hurry, Madame should go back early, so as not to worry Lord Futai." ”
The tattered Sipin Futai Lan Nick official sedan chair followed the carriage of the Fuya, turned into the Jiaozi Street from the Xiaoqinhuai River in the new city, entered the small east gate of the old city, and returned all the way to the Fuya Street.
"Grandma, something must have happened." Bill said in the carriage: "Half leaves and seeds must be Mrs. Lian's personal maidservants, there is no reason not to follow her." In the past few years that we have been in and out of the Lianfu, which time is not a bunch of daughters-in-law and girls waiting in front of us? When will the chief steward drive his wife out of the house again? It must be that Hai Jing's matter has gone wrong, and Mrs. Lian is only afraid that she will be punished lightly, and she doesn't want Mrs. to ask. Or maybe Uncle Lian was annoyed with Mrs. Lian, and even neglected grandma. ”
Qi Su Niang nodded slowly, "You are right, Lianxiang is the one I persuaded Uncle Lian to marry into a partial house, the big boss only has this one son, no wonder he is annoyed I just don't know how Lianxiang and Rui'er are now, how is Hai Jing?" ”
Bi'er pondered, "The slave and maid watch, Haijing must be good, otherwise the movement will only be greater." Even the big boss is not a soft and gentle person, if something happens to Hai Jing, Mrs. Lian and Rui'er don't say that they can't stay in the mansion, I'm afraid" suddenly sighed again, "The slave is not worried about Hai Jing, the slave is worried about Aunt Gui."
”
Qi Su Niang frowned, "I also think she is a little strange today, but I don't know what's wrong."
Billy sighed: "When did Aunt Gui talk like this when she was in front of her grandmother before? Her mouth today couldn't be more coincidental......"
Qi Su Niang was startled and grabbed Bi'er's hand, "What you said is that she is more flamboyant on weekdays, her words are not careful, and she is always with her." Today I spoke decently and flatteringly, I sat in that room for a while, and I was stunned by her and asked a lotus fragrance without coming back to her senses. ”
Bi'er looked at Qi Su Niang, "What Aunt Gui said today is to see grandma's likes and dislikes clearly, and she can understand it better than a slave." Over the years, she has not shown anything at all, and An An has been her concubine. Just this endurance, the slave maid has not seen it in the back house woman in all these years. After a pause, "Aunt Gui is afraid that she understands much more than Aunt Rui. If the slave is even a big boss, it will be unreasonable not to spoil her. ”
Qi Su Niang was silent, "Although she understands the proportions, she thinks she is too left, and her nature is not revealed at all......"
"Grandma was confused. Aunt Gui's grandmother is not as good as Mrs. Lian's grandmother's support, and she can't compare to Rui'er and the big boss who have been in love for many years. If she is measured in everything, how can she compete for favor? If she really competes for favor, with her grandmother here, Mrs. Lian can't clean her up? She is just on the hurdle that she can't go up and down, it's hard for her to see it so clearly, and she has stopped for so many years. Again," Bi'er glanced at Qi Su Niang, "The slave is not afraid of grandma's blame, grandma is not a dependent in the back house in the slave's heart." But among these family members in the back house, only Aunt Gui's temperament is a little bit like grandma, and she should endure it to the fullest, but she is afraid that she will be the same as grandma, and she will not let it go if she doesn't want to endure it, just like this, for fear that her heart will not be right......"
Qi Su Niang sighed, "Since I have endured all these years, I finally became a serious master, how can I not fight to the end, even the big boss has always favored her the most......"
Xiao Lian waited in front of the yamen, rushed forward to wait for Qi Su Niang to get out of the car, and said with a smile: "Master told Xiao to wait here, so that I can see grandma, how is grandma?" ”
Rao is Qi Su Niang was full of sorrow, and couldn't help laughing, "You tell the master to rest assured, half of the cold hair has not fallen off, I am fine." ”
Xiao Lian grinned, and said, "Master said, I'm sorry grandma, I didn't think that the scholars would go to the terrier street to make trouble." made grandma frightened, and the grandfather said that he had made amends to grandma and let grandma spare this time. ”
The officials in front of the yamen couldn't help laughing, and Qi Suniang blushed, "You just let the master be careful, don't be tired, and don't hurt anyone." ”
Xiao Lian glanced at the tattered official sedan chair behind the carriage and responded, "The master also asked the little one to tell grandma that Yangzhou City has been in chaos these days, so it's better not to go out." I came back from afar, and I was good at home for two days, and I was good at bamboo, bamboo, and writing. My grandfather came back in the evening to talk to my grandmother. ”
Qi Su Niang heard Zhuhua writing, and her face turned red again, "You tell the master, I know." ”
