The matter has come to this, the words have come to this, is he better at these than Xu Lingyi? And as Xu Lingyi said, in this big family, he has more pressure than himself.

Eleven Niang chose to believe Xu Lingyi.

She nodded and whispered to him, "Master Hou should take care of yourself." As you said, you have this big family behind you! ”

Xu Lingyi nodded with a smile, reached out and patted her shoulder: "Go and help me clean up my things!" I want to sit here quietly by myself! ”

Eleven Niang can understand that this critical moment requires a clear mind.

She made Xu Lingyi a cup of hot tea, called Xia Yi and Chun Mo in, and helped clean up with them.

What an eye-opener.

It turned out that only the white silk clothes had to be brought with twenty-four sets...... Her gaze wandered between the large pile of clothes in the closet and the ten cages underground, and decided that it was okay to leave relatives in the future, and it was better not to stay overnight, it was too much trouble.

Seeing that it was not early, thinking that Xu Lingyi would rest at Aunt Qiao's tonight, Eleven Niang decided to go to Mrs. Tai's to eat and then come back to clean up. So he went lightly to the warm pavilion.

Xu Lingyi sat cross-legged on the kang, turned his head to look at the snow outside the window, thoughtful.

Hearing the movement, he turned his head and smiled at Eleven Niang.

Eleven Niang whispered: "It's not too early, I'm going to get up and go to my mother!" ”

Xu Lingyi nodded, and went to Mrs. Tai with Eleven Niang.

On the way, I met Xu Lingning and his wife.

After greeting each other, the Xu brothers walked in front and talked about family affairs. The third lady and the eleventh lady walked behind, introducing some of the housekeepers-in-law, two people, one pulling fast, one pulling slow, gradually drifting away. Eleven Niang found out that she wanted to keep up, but the third lady was still unhurried, and she was talking to her again, Eleven Niang couldn't be fast if she wanted to, and immediately understood that the third lady was dragging herself so that the third lady could talk to Xu Lingyi.

Such a mysterious mystery is nothing more than the handover of family affairs and the release of the three rooms!

Eleven Niang smiled and slowed down, and walked leisurely into Mrs. Tai's courtyard with the third lady.

The children arrived early and were sitting around Mrs. Tai talking, and Mrs. Tai was smiling and very happy.

Everyone saw the ceremony, went to the east room for dinner, sent Xu Siqin and Xu Siyu, the third master and the third lady, Xu Sijian left, and the eleventh mother left the space to Xu Lingyi's mother and son by sending Sister Zhen and Brother Zhen back to the house, and then went to Sister Zhen's house.

Sister Zhen lives in the warm pavilion behind the east room, a small lacquered bed, a big red Luo tent, an apricot-yellow brocade quilt, a pot of plum blossoms on the flower table on the side, and there is a dark fragrance floating in the house.

"It's beautiful." Eleven Niang's eyes showed appreciation.

Sister Zhen pursed her lips and smiled, and made tea for Eleven Niang with her own hands.

Eleven Niang took it, it was Tieguanyin.

She couldn't help but be slightly stunned, remembering the effort she had spent in front of the eldest lady.

Because she was deeply depressed, she hoped that Sister Zhen would be as bright as the good sunshine in May.

She took out the pearl bracelet and handed it to Sister Zhen'er.

Sister Zhen was surprised: "Give it to me!" ”

Shi Niang nodded and said with a smile: "Sister Hui next door is coming tomorrow, and you can help me entertain her then." Remember to dress nicely. ”

A light flashed in Sister Zhen'er's eyes.

It's a pity that this light is too short-lived, so that Eleven Niang thinks it is her own illusion.

"What about my brother?" She hesitated.

"Let him accompany his grandmother to turn the rope." Eleven Niang smiled and winked at her.

Sister Zhen laughed.

Eleven Niang got up and said goodbye: "I'll come over early tomorrow to greet my mother, and then see what clothes you are wearing." ”

Sister Zhen sent her out a little embarrassed.

After walking a few steps, she heard a low cheer from Sister Zhen'er's maid oriole.

Eleven Niang smiled slightly and went to Mrs. Tai.

Seeing Eleven Niang coming in, both mother and son looked over. Xu Lingyi's topic did not stop: "...... After all, I have served my father and you, and when the time comes, I will raise a certain amount of silver a year. One hundred steps to ninety-nine steps, and I couldn't afford to tear my face at this time. ”

Mrs. Tai glanced at Eleven Niang, and then at her son, who had no intention of avoiding it at all, and a smile flashed on her face.

"Mother, what do you think?" Xu Lingyi asked Mrs. Tai.

Mrs. Tai let out an "oh", looked up and smiled: "Just according to what you say." He added, "It's not too early, you should go back and rest early." I'm going to Nishiyama Begumi tomorrow. ”

Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang saluted Mrs. Tai and retreated.

On the way, Xu Lingyi took the initiative to say to Eleven Niang: "I only said that the queen wanted to go to the Xishan Palace to soak in the hot springs before Laba, accompanied by the three princes, and I escorted her." I didn't mention anything else. You remember not to slip your mouth out. ”

"The concubine understands!" Eleven Niang smiled and promised.

Xu Lingyi stopped and looked at her with a smile: "You really won't let me enter the door?" There was a thick ridicule in his tone.

Eleven Niang was stunned.

How can you suddenly talk to yourself in such a tone!

Xu Lingyi's eyes widened when she looked at her, and her smart eyes suddenly became dull, and she felt very interesting. Smiled and turned forward.

Eleven Niang hurriedly followed.

But there is a small drum in his heart.

Xu Lingyi: What does this mean?

Back in the house, Xu Lingyi washed up at Eleven Niang's place, and then went to Banyuepan.

Wasn't it good the first two days, and what went wrong?

But let him go to sleep in the study, if Mrs. Tai knows...... She bit her lip and said in a low voice, "Otherwise, Master Hou will rest here tonight!" ”

A hint of banter flashed in Xu Lingyi's eyes: "I want to meet a few staff members tonight." ”

Eleven Niang was stunned, and then her face was flushed. Standing there, I want to dig a hole in the ground and get into it.

It's going to be wrong again......

And Xu Lingyi looked at her with a shy and annoyed look, but she wanted to pretend to be calm, and couldn't help laughing: "I will enter the palace tomorrow." ”

Standing tall, striding away.

The maids in the room bowed their heads.

Eleven Niang looked at his distant figure dumbfounded, and only called Amber for a while: "Go and tell Aunt Qiao, let her not wait for the door, Master Hou has something, and she will rest for half a month today." ”

Amber departed.

In the middle of the night, Eleven Niang was woken up by the sound of a clanging piano.

"What's going on?" She asked Holly in a daze.

Holly was already cloaked: "I'll take a look." ”

After a while, he turned back: "Aunt Qiao is playing the piano." ”

Eleven Niang sighed helplessly and said, "You go and tell her, it's too late, everyone is going to sleep, let her play again tomorrow." ”

Holly responded.

The sound of the piano did not stop, but the song was changed, and the occasional high-pitched sound came, which made people even more unable to sleep - like the person upstairs took off one shoe and threw it on the floor with a loud noise, and then the second shoe did not fall for a long time.

Eleven Niang covered her head with a quilt, barely slept reluctantly, and got up to freshen up when she was ugly. Just finished cleaning up, Xu Lingyi entered the door.

At first glance, he looked radiant, but the faint red thread at the corner of his eyes revealed his exhaustion.

"Didn't Master Hou sleep all night?" Eleven Niang asked with some concern, and brought goat milk to Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi drank it all: "I slept for two hours." ”

How can a person who has slept for two hours have red streaks in the corners of his eyes. Only people who stay up all night will be like this.

At this time, it seems too insincere to say that he takes care of his body, and he has exhausted himself so that they may be safer.

Eleven Niang brought the black chicken soup with cordyceps sinensis to Xu Lingyi: "Drink some soup in the morning to warm your stomach, and people will be more comfortable." ”

Xu Lingyi nodded, drank a bowl of soup, and ate four small buns. Eleven Niang accompanied her to drink a small half bowl of porridge, and asked Xu Lingyi to bring some meatloaf.

Aunt Qiao is here.

Could it be that he heard the wind and came to see Xu Lingyi off?

However, she is also too well-informed.

Eleven Niang remained silent and let the little maid pass her in.

I haven't seen Qiao Lianfang for almost a month, and she still looks like a curvy and soft posture. The head full of green silk was casually curled, and he wore a moon-white dress, which was as beautiful as a bend of water.

Seeing Xu Lingyi, she showed a stunned expression: "Master Hou is also ......"

Xu Lingyi nodded with a smile, and was very amiable to her.

When Eleven Niang saw it, she instructed the little maid to bring her a pestle and asked her, "Have you eaten?" Do you want to add a little more? ”

Qiao Lianfang glanced at Xu Lingyi and said in a low voice, "Not yet...... Is the concubine here to accompany his wife? ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Lingyi's eyes.

Shi Niang smiled and asked her to bring her a bowl of black chicken soup, and said, "But for the third watch of the piano in the middle of the night last night?" ”

"Exactly." Qiao Lianfang owed a little uneasily, "The concubine didn't expect you to hear it." I don't think Madame slept well all night. It's not all concubines. ”

Shi Niang smiled faintly: "You also know, because I am afraid of arguing with others, even Sister Zhen doesn't practice much." ”

Qiao Lianfang was even more uneasy when she heard this, and muttered an apology with a flushed face.

As she was talking, Aunt Qin and Aunt Wen came.

Xu Lingyi couldn't help but take out his pocket watch and came out to look at the time.

"I asked Aunt Qin and Aunt Wen to come over." Eleven Niang looked at it and smiled, "Master Hou is going to live in Xishan for a few days, and let the two aunts come to see off Master Hou." ”

Xu Lingyi bowed his head: "Madame bothered!" ”

Eleven Niang smiled: "It's a matter of concubine status." The corner of his eyes turned to Qiao Lianfang, and he saw that her expression had changed greatly.

The two aunts saluted Eleven Niang and Xu Lingyi, Xu Siyu, Sister Zhen and Brother Zhen also arrived one after another, and when the children saluted, Eleven Niang first accompanied Xu Lingyi to bid farewell to Mrs. Tai, and then led them to send Xu Lingyi to the door of the hanging flower.

Xu Lingyi instructed Xu Siyu: "You are the eldest son, when I don't want a family, I have to help my mother control my sister and younger brother." ”

Xu Siyu respectfully bowed and responded "yes".

Xu Lingyi nodded to Eleven Niang, and then hurriedly walked out of the weeping flower gate surrounded by the little guys.

Eleven Niang waited for Xu Lingyi's figure to disappear, and then said lightly: "Aunt Qiao stays, everyone disperses!" ”

Everyone's eyes stayed on Qiao Lianfang for a moment, and then they saluted Eleven Niang and dispersed.

Qiao Lianfang's eyes flickered a little, and said, "What do you have to tell Madam to keep me?" ”

"We'll talk as we go." Eleven Niang smiled, "Aunt Qiao's health is better?" ”

Qiao Lianfang said: "Mrs. To's blessing, I have been taking medicine. It's just that my foundation is weak, sometimes good and sometimes bad, which makes my wife worry. ”

Eleven Niang sighed secretly in her heart when she heard this.

Talking to her turned out to be a social rhetoric between ladies and ladies.

It's not terrible to be a concubine, but what I'm afraid of is that I haven't been able to find my position correctly as a concubine......

Squeak's math is really poor, and it seems that there is still one more shift to pay off the debt. Still, please be willing to get me excited. (∩_∩) O haha~ Thank you all for your tolerance of Squeak all the time, so that I can slowly repay my debts. Thank you! Fifty consecutive days of double shifts, this is a new record for Squeak, to be honest, not a full-time writer, all rely on rest time to write, very tired. But everyone's enthusiasm for Squeak made Squeak very weak - doing so little, getting so much, and the only thing Squeak could do was to keep the double shift until the end of the month. Thank you again!
