"Young master, Madame is looking for you."

A maid dressed in pink stood outside the door, not daring to enter the house without permission to disturb. Quietly looked up at the backs of the people in the room, tall and straight, and her body looked strong and tough because of years of martial arts, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Seeing that he was about to turn around, she was so frightened that she hurriedly lowered her head, she knew in her heart that the back was enough to make people fascinated. If you look at his face again, it's hard to resist him.

"Got it, let's go down." Yan Kaizhi didn't turn around, which made the maid a little disappointed. But the thought that she could be named to serve by Yan Kaizhi's side was enough to make her heart flutter, so she happily retreated.

Yan Kaizhi didn't know the complicated activities in the heart of the maid outside the door at the moment, he looked back at the clothes he had just changed, picked up the torn belt, and couldn't help frowning and smiling. Thinking of Shaohua's panicked and slurred appearance, she was obviously weak, but when she saw the carriage crashing over, she seemed to want to protect him. Although it was only an illusion in the blink of an eye, Shaohua finally fell on him, but Yan Kaizhi clearly felt that she was nervously reaching out to block him behind him.

Anyway, he is a dignified seven-foot man, and he was protected by a little lady who has not yet reached the end of his life, which will make many people laugh at it.

However, he did underestimate her abilities, and in terms of how she could tear his belt, it was completely different from the rest of the girls. Li ...... Wu Niang? Yan Kaizhi read it silently, a little curious in his heart, and felt funny. He lowered his belt and tried to find his purse, and then asked the maid to take the clothes to sew and wash, but he looked through all the clothes and saw nothing.

Did you encounter a thief?

Yan Kaizhi's face sank in an instant, although he often followed the second son of the emperor Hongyi in and out of the palace, but he was also a member of the Soldiers and Horses. If the thief is not afraid of death and steals his things, he really will die. But after thinking about it, except for the contact with Shaohua in front of the teahouse, he has not intersected with other people, could it be her? Yan Kaizhi's face became even more solemn.

Although there is not much money in the purse, there is a peace charm that his sister specially asked for him, and Yan Kaizhi is very unhappy when he thinks that it was stolen by Shaohua. Throw off the clothes casually, but found that there is a purple purse hidden under the clothes, judging from the style and embroidery, it should be the sachet that the lady carries, he got close and smelled it, and sure enough, there was a faint magnolia fragrance. Could it be the wrong one? Sharp-eyed, I saw a piece of white cloth exposed from the mouth of the purse, which was completely inconsistent with the purple sachet.

He hesitated for a moment, then released the sachet, and a small packet of incense came out of it, along with two strips of white cloth tied into concentric knots. Other than that, there was nothing else, Yan Kaizhi thought about it, but still put away the sachet, thinking of finding an opportunity to ask Li Sinian out and ask him to help send the sachet back.

"Brother, what are you doing?" Leng Buding, a pink-looking and cute girl, came out from behind Yan Kaizhi and startled him. Looking at the sachet that Yan Kaizhi didn't have time to put away, he screamed in surprise, "Brother, you actually brought the sachet with you!" ”

"Not mine." Yan Kaizhi said righteously.

"Could it be that the little lady sent it?" The girl suddenly became interested, and reached out to grab the sachet, Yan Kaizhi quickly clenched the sachet and raised it high. "I told you, it wasn't mine, I accidentally took the wrong one." The girl was unwilling, jumped on Yan Kaizhi's shoulder, and wanted to grab the sachet, but unfortunately her hands were too short and she couldn't reach it. "Where did you come from! How can you accidentally take the wrong one! I recognize this fabric, and the new one from the Red Sleeve Workshop is by no means affordable for ordinary people. Yes! Brother, you are so hateful, give it to me! Otherwise, I'll tell A-Niang that you have a sweetheart, but you won't tell her. ”

Seeing his sister jumping up and down like an angry little monkey, Yan Kaizhi glanced at her contemptuously and stuffed the sachet into his arms. "You just go and say it, see if A-Niang believes it." The girl immediately looked deflated, and clasped her hands to her chest with an unhappy face, "If my brother is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" With that, he ran away in a huff.

"Righteous anger? Wait a minute! Laneige, who taught you this nonsense! Yan Kai was stunned and hurriedly chased after him.

When he stepped into his mother's yard, receiving the unanimous teasing glances from the mother and daughter, he couldn't help but shiver, and then pretended to be calm and walked in. "Auntie, what are you looking for me?"

"I heard you just let a little lady tease on the street." Mrs. Xingyong Bo is gentle and lovely, with a pair of Danfeng eyes full of affection, but because of illness, her face looks pale and haggard, and her cheeks are a little red, like a girl of seventeen or eighteen. No one who has seen her will believe that she is over forty years old, as if she were an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl.

"Auntie, don't listen to Laneige's nonsense." Yan Kaizhi said solemnly.

"It's not Laneige who said it, I just met Yulang at the door." Mrs. Xingyongbo's expression was gentle, her voice was slightly excited, and her tone rose slightly, "Tell A-Niang quickly, which little lady dares to bow to your overlord on the street." ”

The corners of Yan Kaizhi's mouth twitched stiffly a few times, what a coincidence, he and Song Yugang had just parted ways and gone home. Only then did he go back to the yard to change a set of clothes, and his mother could "meet" Song Yu at the door of his house. Looking at the expression on Mrs. Xingyongbo's face and the words that came out of her mouth, Yan Kaizhi suddenly felt a little headache.

wittily and decisively decided to change the topic: "You entered the palace this time, what did the imperial concubine say?" ”

Mrs. Xingyongbo glared at her son dissatisfied, knowing that he did not want to bring up the subject, so she had to give up. "I've seen Mama Rong, a person who knows etiquette and affection. I heard that I promised Li Ge a long time ago that I would teach the lady in the house, but now my schoolwork is not finished, and I can't say it. Mrs. Xingyongbo sighed, "Then wait, it is said that many families are vying to ask her to go back, but she refuses." ”

"It's just a teaching grandmother, and she is so big!" Yan Kai's face was gloomy. "It's just that she has served Queen Duanming, and the ladies of all families praise each other, this kind of teaching and learning Mama, don't invite it."

"I can't say that, the lady taught by Mama is really knowledgeable, and everyone can see this." Mrs. Xingyongbo said good things for her help.

"It's just a lie, everyone doesn't have a grandmother to teach etiquette, and they should behave elegantly and speak properly." Yan Kaizhi said that he was a little unconfident in the back, if he remembered correctly, Shaohua should also be one of the objects of Mama Rong's teaching, thinking of her without an image at all, I don't know what Mama Rong would be angry when she saw it.

Yan Kaizhi didn't realize that when he thought of Shaohua's cramped and nervous appearance, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, and it was extremely shocking in the eyes of Mrs. Xingyong and Lanzhi.

Yan Kaizhi came back to his senses and looked at the two pairs of shining eyes, he beat a drum in his heart, and after a self-examination, he did not find a problem, so he continued: "Since this is the case, the matter of teaching Mama Xi will be put aside for the time being, and I will find another one for Lanzhi." If A-Niang has nothing else to do, I will retire first. ”

Yan Kaizhi respectfully saluted Mrs. Xingyongbo, and then turned to leave. Before leaving, he suddenly instructed solemnly: "Ah Niang, don't tell Laneige any more stories about the rivers and lakes, this is not what a well-informed lady should know!" ”

Waiting for Yan Kaizhi's sturdy back, Lanzhi's face was so angry that he pulled Mrs. Xingyongbo's sleeve and coquettishly, "A-Niang, look at my brother, I've been counted down again." ”

Mrs. Xingyong glanced at her contemptuously, and said coldly: "Who asked you to tell him the story I told you, do you know if your brother wants to come and don't like this." At this moment, Mrs. Xingyong was not at all as dignified as in front of Yan Kaizhi, instead, she yawned without image, and said lazily: "Your brother is dedicated to your good, whether it is teaching Mama Xi, or going out to fight, he is thinking about you everywhere." ”

When Lanzhi heard this, the arrogance on his face had disappeared, and he was a little depressed thinking about everything Yan Kaizhi had paid for them.

Although she can't remember what happened back then, since her father passed away, the whole family, everything is pressed on her brother alone. In order to protect their mother and daughter, he endured all kinds of hardships. Others looked at their family as the name of Xingyong Bofu, which seemed to be dazzling, who knew that after raiding the house, their original modest family foundation was almost squandered. The people who used to come and go were afraid of things, and did not dare to help them, and at one point they almost became beggars.

Even if the hundred generals later jointly cleared their charges, they got the help of the imperial concubine and regained the mansion and land. If it weren't for Yan Kaizhi's hard work, relying on this reward in exchange for Yan Su's life and innocence, he would be far from able to support this family.

Gradually, Mrs. Xingyongbo excused herself from being sick and did not like to go out, nor did she see outsiders. In addition, she has been with her husband for many years, if she is not some people who know the roots, no one knows what kind of life Xingyong Bofu lives, who seems to be a celebrity in front of the palace.

"Where do you say this little lady will be?" Mrs. Xingyongbo suddenly said excitedly.

Lanzhi was stunned for a moment, and replied helplessly: "Auntie, do you want to show your brother again?" ”

Mrs. Xing Yongbo glanced back at her, "Don't you look at how old your brother is, General Shao's wife and Zhou Shangshu's wife have both hugged their grandsons." Mrs. Xingyongbo thought that the two ladies who were usually good friends would hug their grandson early, and she still had to worry about the marriage of her children.

Lanzhi complained angrily: "Brother, it's not that no one wants it, whoever lets A-Niang always push it away, the old lady of the clan is embarrassed to come to our house." ”

Mrs. Xingyong didn't care, "Not to mention marrying a daughter from a high family and marrying a daughter-in-law from a low family, we have the name of this uncle's mansion, those ladies with fine clothes and food can't stand it, I don't want to marry a daughter-in-law and have to come back to serve her." Besides, how many people come to the imperial concubine Niangniang, and how many people come to the second prince, these fictitious things can't stand scrutiny. Thinking of how many people came to make friends when she first came to Beijing to settle down, they all talked sweetly and kissed. Mrs. Xingyong Bo has been a lady who grew up in the army since she was a child, and she rarely entered Beijing after getting married, if it weren't for the fact that her aunt and cousin entered the palace and were favored, and she walked all the way to the position of the imperial concubine, she might not have thought that she would have a day of pilgrimage to the palace in this life.

But no matter how gorgeous the color is, it will be dimmed, and an inexplicable holy decree will throw her from her position of pride. The tree fell and scattered, and she realized that she was not suitable for this circle. She wanted to find a down-to-earth and capable family for her son, but her son was too good, and the people who visited him were all the princes and grandsons, nobles and high-ranking officials, and if she couldn't get rid of it, she simply pretended to be sick and didn't see the guests.

"I'm afraid my brother doesn't have the heart to think about this." In Yan Kaizhi's words, what she wants to marry is a gentle and decent lady, who can support her mother-in-law at the top, be considerate to her sister-in-law at the bottom, be able to run a family inside, and be able to entertain guests outside. It's lightweight, as if everyone can do it, but in fact, few people can do it.

Every family wants to marry their daughter and marry peacefully and wealthily, but Yan Kaizhi clearly wants to marry a housekeeper mother, and he has to be decathlon.

"It's his business that he's not available, I have time."
