After sending Xu Siyu away, Mr. Bai began to clean up the Mude Hall in the outer courtyard. It was the dwelling place of the generations of generations. It has been empty since Xu Ling'an got married. Although someone cleans it, after all, there has been no one living in it for more than ten years, and there is a cold atmosphere when you walk in, not to mention, some things also need to be repaired and replaced. Mr. Bai deliberately discussed this matter with Eleven Niang.

Mrs. Tai asked Du's mother to invite Eleven Niang.

"I don't think there's a rush to move." Mrs. Tai looked at Brother Zhen, whose face was still a little pale, and was sitting on the kang and being fed lotus seed and lily soup by Wei Zi, hesitated, "Why do you have to wait for the summer!" Now I don't even dare to give him warm mung bean soup. ”

Since that day because of dizziness and vomiting, he followed Xu Lingyi to toast at the banquet of the prince, and the Marquis of Yongchang teased him to eat half a piece of pork belly, but when he came back, he began to feel uncomfortable, and he said that he had no appetite for anything, and he fasted for four or five days to get better.

This kid is so delicate!

Eleven Niang was also worried, so she naturally nodded "yes".

Mrs. Tai asked about Shi Niang's move: "The Chuelun Water Pavilion is a good place to escape the summer, I think, you can also move after the summer!" ”

Xu Sijie lives alone in Lijingxuan, and Sister Zhen goes back and forth to Shaohua Courtyard and Chuilun Water Pavilion four times a day, without copying the verandah, and her face is red......

"Let's move in two days according to the Hou Ye's wishes!" Eleven Niang politely refused.

"Now that you've discussed it, let's choose an auspicious day for the zodiac to move!" Mrs. Tai didn't insist, but a little disappointment flashed in her eyes.

Eleven Niang can see it clearly. knew that Mrs. Tai wanted to let herself and Xu Lingyi spend more time together. But she couldn't make up her mind for a while. had to avoid Mrs. Tai's gaze like an ostrich.

After she left, Mrs. Tai and Mother Du sighed: "I thought there would be good news." And so I moved back in! ”

"There's no urgency for this kind of thing." Mother Du smiled and inserted the peeled melon with a bamboo skewer and handed it to Mrs. Tai, "What's more, it's good to move back." Lest there be no charter for such a discarded mess. ”

Mrs. Tai nodded slowly and said no more. On the day when Eleven Niang was officially going to move, she went over to take a look.

Eleven Niang had already discussed it with Xu Lingyi. Xu Lingyi's study was set up in the east wing next to the main room, and the west wing was given to Xu Si. Sister Zhen lives in Lijingxuan. If Xu Siyu comes back, he will live in the outer courtyard.

Mrs. Tai smiled when she heard this: "Sister Zhen is older, and she will have her own yard." Or you guys are thoughtful. Seeing that the maid and woman in the yard were running through the flow without panic, her eyes showed a look of satisfaction, and she said a few words of gossip with Eleven Niang, and took Mother Du back to her yard.

Eleven Niang commanded the maids to decorate the house, tidy up the cages, and happened to meet June 6, taking the opportunity to dry the winter clothes, and it took four or five days to stop. On the twelfth, it was Brother Chen's birthday. Because she was frightened before, Mrs. Tai was worried that the reception would be too noisy, so she ordered the kitchen to cook a mixed longevity noodles, and was ready to invite the family to eat a bowl of longevity noodles together. Who knows, but there are uninvited guests coming to the door.

First of all, Lord Jiang sent someone to send two copies of the previous dynasty's thread-bound "University" and "The Mean" to Brother Chen's birthday gifts, and then Luo Da * Milk sent someone to send a set of red scorched cloth and a set of moon-white Ge preaching robes, Qi Niang sent someone to send a half-foot-high five-bat holding peach jade stone carving, Siniang sent a pair of fragrant cloud yarn beaded lotus purses, and Mrs. Huang sent a pen holder for boxwood carving and diligent cultivation.

Mrs. Tai looked at it and smiled helplessly: "It's our rudeness!" ”

"We are busy with family affairs, and we are all close relatives, so we can understand it when we think about it." Eleven Niang comforted Mrs. Tai, turned around and arranged thank you gifts with Amber to each family.

Li Ji's mother and Mrs. Li came to visit.

Eleven Niang was a little surprised.

If it is to celebrate her brother's birthday, then her news is too well-informed - the ancients felt that the eight characters of the birthday were related to their own life, and they would not let people know about it. If it was a coincidence, she came to visit so suddenly, and she didn't know what was going on - if she was in a hurry about Li Ji's marriage, she should have invited someone to come to Shi Niang to talk about the item, instead of running over in person and facing Shi Niang face to face, and she didn't even give both parties room to maneuver......

She felt strange in her heart and instructed Amber: "Please ask Mrs. Li to sit in the main hall of my courtyard." Then he changed his clothes and went to the main hall.

Mrs. Li brought a birthday gift for Brother Zhen.

"Our master is a rough man, and he only knows those vulgar things. I have been thinking about the birthday of the son for a long time, but Sister Ling was not in good health before, and we are embarrassed to disturb us often. This time, I heard that my wife was very kind and polite, so I personally chose this object and asked me to send it with a thousand instructions. Although I don't think it's a good idea, I think that this is a special trip from Shanxi sent by the master, and I think it is the master's intention, so I can't say anything about this refusal. I had to bite the bullet and send it over. Please also ask Madame for the sake of our lord's sincerity, don't refuse. ”

Eleven Niang looked at the golden three-inch red gold tiger, and her sideburns were sweaty.

"I understand the hearts of Lord Li and Mrs. Li......

As soon as she spoke, Mrs. Li interrupted her: "Madam, listen to me......"

"Mrs. Li, listen to me." Eleven Niang raised her voice slightly and suppressed Mrs. Li's words, "On the birthday of the prince, our family did not have a treat. Speaking of which, it is all because the son of the world has had a deficiency since he was a child, and he is weak and weak. We are afraid of Fu Lu's body, and we will not be able to do it too much. I would never dare to accept this thing. Lord Li and our Hou Ye used to be colleagues, and our Hou Ye's heirs were not prosperous, and Master Li also knew about it. You brought this with you, thinking that Master Li could understand the concubine's painstaking work. ”

The reason for Eleven Niang's refusal is high-sounding, and Mrs. Li is really not good at insisting.

A look of chagrin flashed in her eyes.

Eleven Niang looked at it with a smile and glanced at the carved red lacquer box containing the red gold little tiger: "This box is boxy, not big or small, just used to hold some idle stamps, ink strips and the like." A few days ago, Shizi asked me if I could help make one. Mrs. Li might as well give this red lacquered box to the prince! It's also a good use! Then he glanced at the amber envoy and motioned for her to return the red gold tiger to Madame Li and leave the box behind.

Mrs. Li looked at Shi Niang's gaze a little more seriously.

"It's all my recklessness, and Madame is grateful for not blaming me. What's more, he just took a fancy to a box, even though he took it. She smiled a little reluctantly, "When the master asked, I can be regarded as making up for it!" ”

"The most rare thing about this gift is that it is just right." Eleven Niang smiled, "Madame gave her what the son wants, what could be better than this." Even if Master Li knows, he can only say that Mrs. does things to reassure him. Eleven Niang said a few polite words, got up and took Mrs. Li's hand: "It's rare that you and Lord Li have taken our son to heart, since you are here today, let's go eat a bowl of longevity noodles and leave!" ”

Mrs. Li did not refuse, and went to Mrs. Tai with Eleven Niang.

Mrs. Tai was also surprised by Mrs. Li's arrival, and heard that Mrs. Li had given a box carved with red lacquer to Brother Chen as a birthday gift, so she smiled and smiled calmly and beckoned Mrs. Li to eat longevity noodles together. And Mrs. Li was not restrained at all in front of the ladies of the Xu family in the house, ate longevity noodles, and gossiped with Mrs. Li, and then got up to say goodbye.

Eleven Niang sent her to the Hanging Flower Gate.

On the way, Mrs. Li asked her with great concern: "I heard from our master that the Hou Ye went to Shandong a few days ago, and met Xiao Xiao on the way, and a few guards died before he retreated. The world is really not peaceful now! ”

Went to Shandong and met Xiaoxiao?

Eleven Niang was shocked.

Xu Lingyi came back, but she didn't mention a word to her!

No wonder Qi Niang said that when she met him, she thought he was a bandit.

She thought he didn't want to show off when he was out of the house, so he changed into coarse cloth clothes. I thought he was tired because of the hard journey......

But looking at Mrs. Li, whose eyes showed a few scrutinies, Eleven Niang didn't dare to show it at all.

Master Li actually said these things to Mrs. Li. She vaguely felt that Mrs. Li's visit today was not simple.

Eleven Niang said euphemistically: "I am a woman, but these things are not easy to say!" ”

Mrs. Li couldn't help but show a few surprises when she heard this.

Eleven Niang's expression was too calm.

Either I already knew about it, or the city government was very deep.

As Shi Niang said, this matter is not something that a woman should know, if Shi Niang knows, then there is only one possibility, Xu Lingyi is injured! If she doesn't know...... Mrs. Li's smile stiffened before she unfolded again.

"Not really. I didn't know that before. If it weren't for this ......" she said and suddenly stopped the topic, then stopped and looked around vigilantly, and saw that the maid and mother-in-law who were surrounded by the two of them were standing with their hands bowed to a zhang away, so she took a few steps forward gently, came to the side of Eleven Niang and said, "I heard our master say that first the Hou Ye had an accident in Shandong, and then the Hou Shizi of Jinghai...... For no reason, suddenly gone! ”

Eleven Niang's head "buzzed", she couldn't hold back any longer, and there was a surprised expression on her face.

Mrs. Li nodded solemnly at her when she looked at it, and lowered her voice a few times: "I can't see anyone alive, and I can't see a corpse when I die." ”

Shi Niang took a deep breath before she could speak: "How can this be? ”

She heard her voice hoarse.

"So Fujian is in chaos." Mrs. Li looked around again and said, "Marquis Jinghai not only ordered people to turn Fujian upside down, but also sent people to Shangrao, Lishui, and Meizhou to look for people, which made the people in that area panic. The emperor was also extremely angry when he found out. I want to be dismissed from the post of chief soldier of Fujian! ”

Eleven Niang's heart was in turmoil.

What a coincidence!

First Xu Lingyi was ambushed, and then the Marquis of Jinghai disappeared.

She thought that a few days ago, Xu Lingyi did not return for two consecutive nights...... I just felt cold on my body...... Perfunctory Mrs. Li: "I don't blame the emperor for being angry." It's too much involved! ”

"That's it, that's it." Mrs. Li nodded again and again, "The Fujian General Soldier is too, and he actually let the family in that district come like this." It seems that his position as the chief soldier cannot be kept. As she spoke, she sighed softly, "I don't know who the emperor entrusted to go to Fujian to clean up the mess?" ”

In this era, women pay attention to three obedience and four virtues. Talking about political affairs is no less than Si Chen...... Mrs. Li not only talked about political affairs, but also talked to her, who was neither a close friend nor a confidant.

Eleven Niang was secretly alarmed in her heart and did not answer.
