Twenty-four years of Chengshun

In the early winter, the sun is still warm. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info The Prime Minister's Mansion was full of joy. It's like being in the spring of March.

Today's lantern is a big banquet, not for anything else, just to celebrate Zhou Youxiang's nephew's high school filial piety.

There is already a faint demeanor of the fathers of the past.

Zhou Jiulang wore a satin sleeveless round-necked robe with a scarlet background and a colorful embroidered gold group pattern, with a white collar. Then bring a scarlet base dotted emerald pattern belt. The whole person looks festive and energetic.

The Zhou family set up a banquet in the lotus garden, surrounded by lotus ponds, although they can't appreciate the lotus flowers now, but the lotus canopy is jade, and the chrysanthemums next to the lotus pond have opened a big circle. The view is natural and pleasant. The students drank and wrote poems in Jing Yaxuan. Among them, Zhou Jiulang is the mainstay. He was smiling and comfortable with the students.

"Brother Zhou is really young and promising...", a student praised.

Zhou Jiulang also heard a lot of such words, and he said, "Where is it." Brother Liu is polite...", he said politely. The atmosphere still maintains just the right amount of pleasantness.

"Look... It's not hard to socialize. Zhou Jiulang thought in his heart. I heard that he was going to be an official, but my uncle didn't pay attention to his academic articles and didn't ask him how capable he was. He was trained to speak politely. Learn how to entertain at the banquet.

After more than a year of training, although Zhou Jiulang couldn't talk like his uncle, he didn't go as rampage as before, and went straight to the ground.

A student on the other side said: "Yes, now that I have been filial piety in high school, I will become a relative for a while." Next year, I will take another Jinshi in the spring... Brother Zhou, this is three joys..."

When it comes to getting married, thinking of that person, the smile on the corner of Zhou Jiulang's mouth is even worse.

However, in the Lotus Garden, when it comes to the fiancée of today's protagonist Zhou Jiulang, everyone sighs in unison.

"I heard that it's a widow and an eldest daughter?" someone said. "yes... It's another family like the Nie family. What's so good about that? If this is the Ninth Young Master in the past... That's it... This is now... I don't know what the Zhou family will do..."

Although the ladies show their faces by going to the banquet, they also like to get together in twos and threes to talk a little thing. But that's what I said, there are also people who don't have long eyes, who will go to Chen to inquire around the corner.

But these ladies turned the corner again, and then they would inquire "inadvertently", and there were many people who asked like this, and Chen naturally felt extremely embarrassed...

"This ninth brother's marriage... Wasn't that what our old lady had set two years earlier?" Chen smiled with a smile on his face, but his nails were about to dig into his flesh.

Originally, Zhou Jiulang was out of breath, but she was extremely unpleasant. I didn't expect to be ordered by the old witch to hold a banquet to celebrate this motherless thing. Chen's heart was already as uncomfortable as eating a fly. There are still people who ask about this.

Chen felt that this was an insult to her!

What did she say? She didn't agree with it in the first place!

Who listened to her? But for this reason, I was subjected to the pandering of the master and the old witch!

Now it's okay, Zhou Jiulang trembled, and inquired all over the capital, saying that he had ordered such a half-dead daughter-in-law for him... And her reputation...

The more Chen thought about it, the more angry he became... But I was worried about the large number of people, and the smile on my face never faded.

Xu Shi was so anxious that he jumped to his feet and said loudly: "This is what our old lady means... We didn't marry him such a daughter-in-law..."

When Chen heard this, he felt more and more ashamed.

Her mother's sister-in-law, Mrs. Wen Yuanhou, also came today, and after hearing about the family affairs, she asked, "What the hell is going on?" Are the conditions really not good?"

Chen nodded: "The eldest daughter of the widow is the blood of a slave, and she is half dead sick... What else could I do?"

Mrs. Wen Yuanhou frowned, and looked at Chen Shi while irritable with his hand to pluck a pot of chrysanthemums, and at the same time he had to give orders, and she was also unhappy. said: "Such a person, the third room over there is an only son... I don't know what you old lady thinks!"

Chen sneered, although she felt ashamed, but no matter what, it was not her son, even if it was not good in the future, it had nothing to do with her. So he said: "No matter how you think about it, isn't it just to carry a few concubines left and right... I don't dare to care about this... Just when we were talking about kissing... Forget it, I won't tell you, the more I talk about it, the more annoying it becomes!"

Chen waved his veil irritably and stopped the conversation. Because of the day when the sick seedling was reprimanded, she didn't want to mention it again.

Mrs. Wen Yuanhou laughed dryly, but she was thoughtful in her heart.

The light and dark thoughts here are unknown to Nie Xiaofan in Changping.

However, even if she knew, she wouldn't take it to heart. Now, as she thought three years ago, her business is getting bigger. At least the shops and granges that were previously mortgaged have been redeemed.

Everything is gradually getting better, and Nie Xiaofan's life is very fulfilling.

The Nie family is now in addition to serving, and last year, the Lian family took their daughters to pick some fruits in the garden and made fruit wine. Today is a good time to taste.

Ordinary people, the family has a funeral, and after three years, there will be a wedding banquet to be lively.

Now Nie Xiao'e and Nie Xiaofan are about to leave the cabinet. Lian's meaning is that everyone should get together and have a lively time before returning to Beijing. and with this fruit wine.

Nie Xiaofan has now grown into a sixteenth girl, and she and Zhou Qiaoqiao stand together, they are two different types of beauties.

Nie Xiaofan's beauty is subtle and powerful. Zhou Qiaoqiao's beauty is flamboyant and outward. The kind where you can feel the aura from ten meters away.

The garden is ripe, the fruit is ripe, and the fragrance wafts to the ground. The sisters are playing with each other, and it looks really pleasing to the eye.

"Xiao Fan... Brother Chen... Come on, your little sister made lotus seed soup herself. Come and try it. Seeing the two of them coming, Lian took the lead in greeting.

Because of Zhou Qiaoqiao's cold and hard personality, Lian always laughed and called her Brother Chen... Over time, Zhou Qiaoqiao got used to it.

A little maid hurriedly presented the lotus seed soup in the jade bowl to the two, Nie Xiaofan tasted it with a smile, and said, "Sister E is becoming more and more ingenious... This lotus seed soup, Xiao Fan likes it very much. ”

Zhou Qiaoqiao also said: "Not bad." ”

Nie Xiao'e smiled: "It's my aunt who teaches her well." ”

Nie Xiaoyue was the most lively, and said, "Yes... I just said that Sister E did a good job, but she still didn't believe it. Now that Sister Fan and Sister Chen are saying this, Sister E finally believes it..."

"Your sister and sister, sister after sister on the left, are you not afraid of dizzying yourself?"

As he spoke, a voice like a hollow valley orchid sounded behind him. It was Zhou Baozhu, who was full of manners, who came slowly.

"Sister Baozhu..."Nie Xiaoyue shouted crisply.

"The orb is here... Okay, okay, the beauties are all ready. Mama, go and bring the fruit wine we made ourselves last year..."Lian ordered with a smile, the delicate voices of the girls in the garden sounded from time to time, the haze of mourning dissipated, and everyone was full of energy to drink it once...

Zhou Baozhu sat next to Nie Xiaofan, and after three rounds of drinking, she asked, "My ninth brother is now in filial piety, are you happy?"

Nie Xiaofan nodded: "This is a good thing." Naturally happy. ”

Zhou Baozhu smiled: "I just like your honesty." What if he misses?"

Nie Xiaofan said: "I didn't hit... Then I didn't win. Her eyes were clear, and she couldn't think of what she could do in the middle of nowhere.

Zhou Baozhu became more and more funny. But thinking about herself, she also received three points of playfulness: "I received a letter yesterday that my grandmother asked me to go back to Beijing with you. When are you going back?"

Nie Xiaofan said: "There are still ten days, I heard my aunt say that the days are counted by people." ”

Zhou Baozhu poured himself a glass of wine and drank it violently. The maid beside him hurriedly dissuaded: "Girl, don't drink too much..."

"I have counted!" Zhou Baozhu poured another cup: "I respect everyone." In the future, we will never have such a leisurely life to live..."

That's not... Time goes on day by day, and the younger people will grow up, and they will marry, and when they get married, they will have to serve their in-laws. All kinds of rules in the house are bigger than the sky.

How can there be such a leisurely little sister gathering together to have fun?

The sisters felt something, except for Nie Xiaoyue, who was still ignorant of the world, the other sisters all drank a glass of stuffy wine.

Seeing that the atmosphere had cooled down, Nie Xiaofan hurriedly got up. "Actually, it's nothing... We're all going to grow up, aren't we? When we grow up, even if we have troubles, we have happy memories today. And in the future, it belongs to the happy memories of growing up..."

"Xiaofan said it well!" Nie Xiao'e raised her glass again, and the sisters looked at each other and smiled.

Zhou Baozhu also smiled.

Yes, the little daughter's leisure time will eventually pass, but there is nothing to regret. Because there will be a new chapter in their lives. New memories...

――――――――――――――――――

Although it is said that there are still ten days to return to Beijing, in the past two days, the Lian family has already commanded his subordinates to go back to clean Nie's mansion. He also arranged a carriage every day to help the little daughters slowly transport the salute back.

Nie Xiaofan also ordered people to pack up their things. Zhou Qiaoqiao was unmoved. "I'm not going to clean it up... This is my home. Zhou Qiaoqiao's plan is to wait for Nie Xiaofan to get married. She devoted herself to the Raven Gang.

In Zhou Qiaoqiao's heart, those little daughters lamented and joyed for getting married. She couldn't understand it.

Although Xia Yue likes her, it's just talk. In her life plan, she never waited for Xia Yue to be like it.

Nie Xiaofan pursed his lips and watched Zhou Qiaoqiao take a pair of silver scissors to trim the rose fence of Mochiyue Pavilion. I don't feel like it's a taste in my heart.

Zhou Qiaoqiao's plan has always been a maverick.

"It's okay if you don't clean it up. Left and right, you can't go anywhere, you can't miss this part of food, clothing and housing. Nie Xiaofan said angrily. Then he turned around and stomped back into the house.

Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't reply. Not long after, Nie Xiaofan stood behind Zhou Qiaoqiao again. said: "You are my aunt's goddaughter... Isn't she sad like this?"

Zhou Qiaoqiao sighed.

Lian's is really good to her. Yiying's food and clothing has always been the same as Nie Xiaoyue. Although she didn't lack that part of the food, at least Lian's heart was clearly there.

"If I have a chance in the future, I will be filial to the Lian family. "When there are no outsiders, Zhou Qiaoqiao is still used to calling Lian.

Nie Xiaofan had to stare dryly.

But after thinking about it, if Zhou Qiaoqiao, who had been talking about hatred all day long two years ago, could say this. Nie Xiaofan is simply thankful. Because at least you don't have to worry about her going out to do things at any time.

Well, now Zhou Qiaoqiao really doesn't have the heart to assassinate anyone. She directly took charge of the killer group.

Although Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't say it explicitly, Nie Xiaofan could roughly guess something. She was most afraid of Zhou Qiaoqiao's accident at first, but at that time she thought about it again and again, and felt that even if there was an unexpected day, Zhou Qiaoqiao would be able to protect herself well.

She is like this, relying on self-comfort all the way to avoid being scared to death and angry in front of Zhou Qiaoqiao.

But now, even Nie Xiaofan didn't find out, she was already unconsciously thinking of reasons for Zhou Qiaoqiao.

But after thinking about this reason, she finally turned to this point: If Zhou Qiaoqiao really wants to stay away from the capital and stay away from all this, doesn't that mean that she will lose her?

This is something that Nie Xiaofan doesn't want to accept.

She really took Zhou Qiaoqiao as a friend.

"Can you not leave?" Nie Xiaofan twisted the handkerchief in his hand, like a little woman who left her lover.

Zhou Qiaoqiao lost goosebumps for no reason.

"You speak well!" she said angrily.

Nie Xiaofan smiled with a hippie smile, and knew that it was useless to pretend to be pitiful.

Zhou Qiaoqiao rolled her eyes, isn't this nonsense?

She used to be uncomfortable and pretended to be pitiful, she could let her let her, but now she eats Ma Ma Xiang and her body is very good, why should she still let her.

"Xiaofan, you don't need anyone's care anymore. I'll stay..."Zhou Qiaoqiao's eyes flashed with loneliness, this capital always makes her sad.

Let's go, leaving some warm-hearted people and things to worry about. Also take away the hatred that remained in the capital. Wandering the rivers and lakes, doing things for the master, and repaying her instructions and life-saving grace.

That's good.

The discussion was ultimately inconclusive.

They had to put the topic aside for the time being, which was a tacit understanding between them. When no one can convince anyone, it is better to put the problem down first.

――――――――――――

Nie Xiaofan sighed. He turned around and went back to the house. only to find that Xia Yue sent a letter.

Now she is doing things for Xia Yue, so the two will have contact, but most of them are Xia Yue to understand Zhou Qiaoqiao.

She thought the same way at first, but when she took the letter and read it, she almost vomited blood in anger.

Xia Yue asked her for 300,000 taels of silver.

How dare you think about it! Your skin is thicker than the city wall!

Nie Xiaofan went to see Xia Yue that night.

She was given 100,000 taels of silver! Let her wonder every day in horror whether there would be problems with the fleet. Xia Yue is good, as soon as she opens her mouth, she will ask for 300,000 taels, is she blind or blind?

Didn't you see that the fleet hadn't come back yet?(To be continued.) )
