Li Xiaoqi sent away Sister Zhang and the other three, and was about to call Wisteria to come in and ask Mingwan about it, when the little girl heard Zhu come in and reported: "Back to the girl, Uncle Zhang, Zhao Wuye, Zhao Liuye, Luo Ye, and Chen Ye from the weaving workshop asked to see the girl, and now they are waiting outside." Li Xiaoqi thought for a while and ordered: "Just say that I am tired today and have rested, let them go back first and come over early tomorrow morning." Listening to the bamboo promise to go out and pass the word, did not wait for Li Xiaoqi to sit down, Mama Lu respectfully reported outside, Shui Lian and Shui Tong sent the mother-in-law to come over to thank and visit, Li Xiaoqi hurriedly ordered to invite in, four well-dressed mothers-in-law came in, knelt down and kowtowed to say goodbye, sent a return gift, respectfully and politely thanked the main family and greetings, and passed the invitation of water lotus and water tong, tomorrow I want to invite Li Xiaoqi to come over the house to pick up the wind and wash the dust, Li Xiaoqi looked at the four mothers-in-law and asked with a smile: "Your seven ladies and grandmothers are separately please, Or do you invite me in one place? ”

"Back to the fifth master, our seventh lady said, I don't dare to bother the fifth master, together in one place, in the big / grandma's house, our seventh lady said, the big / grandma is much more relaxed than in our house, not the slow fifth master." The mother-in-law replied with a smile, Li Xiaoqi nodded and smiled: "Then bother you Seventh Lady and Grandma, tomorrow I will go by myself, I don't have to pick it up, but it will be a little late, and there are still some things to deal with early tomorrow morning, so I will sue you Seventh Lady and Grandma." ”

"The fifth master is too polite, you can't afford to accuse, the fifth master can come, it is the dignity of our seventh lady and grandma." The four mothers-in-law politely complimented them again, and then got up and went back.

Mrs. Jia is helping this mother-in-law in the second door of the Li Mansion, helping the mother-in-law to hand over things, accompanying the whole body carefully to point out all the people, and trying to talk in every possible way. was busy wiping the test room, seeing that Mama Lu personally sent the four mothers-in-law of the Shui family out, Mrs. Jia thought about it, didn't dare to lean on directly, took the rag, pretended to wipe the shadow wall, got closer, and listened attentively to Mama Lu and the four mothers-in-law's polite words Don't: "Miss •••••• still has to see people tomorrow morning, there are still some things in the weaving workshop, I estimate that I have to be right before I can leave, and I say hello to the Seventh Lady, saving the ••••••anxiety of the Seventh Lady and the eldest / grandmother and so on."

Mrs. Jia's heart beat endlessly, and her eyes swept to see the bright water clan emblem on the two cars on the four mothers-in-law, and she was secretly happy in her heart, this trip was not worth it, and the girl in the Yueting Pavilion was not all nonsense, this Li family really had close contacts with the Shui family, the little lady of the Li family just arrived home today, and the Shui family invited the door, and there were four mothers-in-law who came. Well, don't act rashly yet, in case you alarm people and ruin a big thing, it's better to go back and report to the two masters first. Mrs. Jia guarded Mama Lu and walked away, hurriedly washed the rag and dried it, and a few mothers-in-law who were still busy bent their knees and retreated, went out of the side door, and first replied to Mrs. Fan and Yueting, then found a reason to come out, and hurriedly reported to Mr. Lin and Zhijing.

Yueting watched Mrs. Jia go out of the door, turned around on her toes briskly, looked at Mrs. Fan and said happily: "Listen, listen, we are several times more than Sister Zhang and Mrs. Sun, you see, I will say, don't put you in your eyes, she dare!?" Mrs. Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and stopped Yueting's joy with a smile on her face: "This is also her sensible place, Xiao Wu is not ignorant, or her eldest brother is used to it, just slowly entangle it in the future." Yueting didn't seem to hear Mrs. Fan's words, so she just shook off the silk and stroked to herself, and said: "Sister, look, how delicate the color of this material is, the princess who combed her hair said that this year's Kaiping Mansion is the most widely skirted, and it is not possible to implement eight pieces, and it takes twelve pieces to implement the most, sister, you see, just right, each color of these materials is two horses and two horses, this material is so thin and soft, it is best to make a wide skirt, these two horses will cut a skirt of twelve pieces for me, anyway, my sister guards filial piety, and I can't wear these ayaluo." Mrs. Fan looked at the fine silk on Yueting's body painfully, and only after a while did she smile and say, "If you like it, take it." ”

Wei Shuisheng got the letter that Li Xiaoqi had returned in the Shui family, hurried back, and went straight into the half-acre garden, Li Xiaoqi just sent away the Shui family's mother-in-law, and hurriedly welcomed Wei Shuisheng into the house and sat down, Wei Shuisheng looked at Li Xiaoqi carefully, and said distressedly: "It's hard for you." Li Xiaoqi didn't answer, only smiled and pulled Wei Shuisheng to sit down on the edge of the couch, jumped on the couch himself, moved to the side of the couch, took a delicate and unusual rosewood box, opened it and brought out a beautifully carved jasper cicada, held it in the palm of his hand and sent it to Wei Shuisheng and said with a smile: "Look, this is what I specially bought for you, a blockbuster, Brother Shui Sheng will definitely be a blockbuster in a few days, and he will become famous in one fell swoop!" Wei Shuisheng picked up the jasper cicada and smiled: "Okay! Thank you for good luck! With this blockbuster, you can't become famous! ”

Li Xiaoqi bent his eyes and laughed, Wei Shuisheng looked at Li Xiaoqi with pity, and wanted to ask a few more words if it was hard for her to go out this time, but the words came to her mouth and swallowed back, but she was afraid that if he asked, she couldn't say that it was a matter of military affairs, what she knew, not what he should know, Wei Shuisheng held the jasper cicada, swallowed those concerns, and said with a smile and gossip: "Big brother, they started half a month ago, saying that they were going to the south of Liangdi, and the day before yesterday they said that they were still in the Rucheng area of Beiping, and I don't know where they have been in the past two days." ”

"Well," Li Xiaoqi waved his hand and retreated from the little girls in the house, looked at Wei Shuisheng and said softly: "Go to Rucheng first, and then rush from Rucheng to Huaiyang Mansion, this time away from Rucheng, far away from Huaiyang Mansion, Huwei Army is long in long-distance attack, the prince kept to take Huainan Road when it was used as a surprise soldier, Huainan Road A battle should be quickly resolved, Beiping has just leveled Liangdi, now the treasury is empty, it is not suitable to fight for a long time." Wei Shuisheng pondered for a moment, looked at Li Xiaoqi and asked, "Wu Di is in chaos?" ”

"Well, Wu Guifei set up six princes on the order of the first emperor, and the eldest prince fled back to Chizhou Mansion to establish himself as the emperor, and it is time to fight." Li Xiaoqi said lightly and casually, Wei Shuisheng took a breath lightly, looked at Li Xiaoyi, and suddenly asked in a low voice, "You have been in Taiping Mansion?" ”

"Hmm." Li Xiaoqi said 'um', and didn't say more, Wei Shuisheng was stunned, he couldn't speak for a while, the silence in the room could be heard, for a while, Wei Shuisheng exhaled heavily, raised his hand and rubbed his face and said with a smile: "Second Master Shui is back, he just arrived this morning, day and night, when he got off the horse at the gate of the mansion, he refused to move a step, he had to let people carry it in, according to his own words, he was tired of becoming a dead dog!" ”

"This is Lu Feng's words, he has learned." Li Xiaoqi laughed out loud, and said while laughing, Wei Shuisheng also laughed: "No, I see that he is more and more similar to Lu Feng, Lu Feng went back to Xinyang, he set off not long after you left, and after walking for more than half a month, he suddenly came back to me secretly, asked where you went, said that he went to Liangdi to find you to resign, but he couldn't find you, I persuaded him a few words, and he also promised to rush back to Xinyang first, and I don't know if anything happened on the way." ”

"I met him in Lukang and persuaded him a few words, he should have returned to Xinyang at this time, maybe he was busy marrying a new daughter-in-law." Li Xiaoqi said with a smile, Wei Shuisheng shook his head disapprehantly: "No, before he left, he gritted his teeth and said that he would not marry if he was killed, it didn't look like it was fake." ”

"You don't know him yet, it's not false when he says it, it's just that he forgets it when he finishes speaking, and he changes when he turns his head, he has the best beauty in his eyes, if the daughter-in-law who shows him at home is good-looking enough, you see, he is stunned at a glance, then everything is good!" Li Xiaoqi said with a smile and a wave of his hand, Wei Shuisheng thought about it, nodded and smiled: "Also, when I was in Zhengcheng, I thought he liked the peony in Hongxianglou, and later entered Tang County, he was fascinated by what lotus in a blink of an eye, really!" Wei Shuisheng shook his head to show that he couldn't understand, Li Xiaoqi remembered the appearance of Lu Feng's red stripes and jade lotus flowers entangled, frowned disgustingly, waved his hand and said: "Don't mention him, let's get down to business, did the Marquis of Jingjiang mention it to you about the reason for this martial arts move in advance?" ”

"Once I said it, I vaguely said that it was to employ people in a hurry, and according to what you said, it was to be used in the war on Huainan Road."

"Well, that's for this, does Brother Shui have any plans?" Li Xiaoqi looked at Wei Shuisheng and asked, Wei Shuisheng looked at Li Xiaoqi and said with a smile: "I was about to discuss this matter with you, I was thinking about returning to the eldest brother, and I would still be the head of the capital, and earn some credit." Li Xiaoqi looked at Wei Shuisheng and was about to speak, Wei Shuisheng continued: "You listen to me first, I have read the book with Mr. Shui for the past few months, and only then did I first get a glimpse of the mystery of fighting with soldiers, only to know that the first few with the eldest brother, but it is with the courage to fight hard, I want to come and go, it is best to go back, the eldest brother is loyal and willing to listen to people, not to mention Erhuai and Guizi, our brothers work together, its profits are broken, this battle is fought a few times, big brother them, and me, maybe they can all learn it, this is one, two, look at it like this, Take Huainan Road, I'm afraid that it will be peaceful for a few years, take advantage of this opportunity, the eldest brother has to earn some credit, as for me, after the war on Huainan Road, I want to study quietly for two years, what do you see? ”

Li Xiaoqi looked at Wei Shuisheng, and only after a long time did he speak: "As long as Brother Shuisheng doesn't feel wronged••••••

"They are all brothers, born and died together, who wronged whom? It took me a few months to realize that I had read too little, and that I could study quietly for two years. Wei Shuisheng said with a smile, Li Xiaoqi sighed and nodded: "Brother Shui Sheng thinks it's good, that's good, well, also, this strategy, the prince is about to read the volume in person, and he has to use people, this strategy is only afraid that it is related to the battle of Huainan Road, Brother Shui Sheng think about it first." ”
