Chapter 414: The Blessing of Qi People
The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the hot summer is finally coming to an end, and there is a hint of coolness in the morning and evening.
After a few months of travel to the border gates, at noon that day, Fanning and his entourage finally returned to the capital after a long absence.
On the first day he came back, he naturally didn't go to the courtyard, Fan Ning went straight to his father-in-law's house, but his mother-in-law told him that Zhu Pei had moved back two months ago, and Fan Ning had to say goodbye and hurried back to Feihongqiao Mansion.
But when he said goodbye, his mother-in-law's strange smile made him feel a little uneasy, he had to be wrong, could there be something wrong at home?
Fanning hurried back to his mansion in a hurry, the original door had disappeared and turned into a high courtyard wall, but the door for the people to enter and exit was still there.
Fanning was a little hesitant, not knowing where to get in?
Just then, Xie Jiuling came out of the gate of the next mansion, saw Fan Ning at a glance, and hurriedly greeted him, "Fan Daguan, when did you come back?" ”
"When I first arrived in the capital, Uncle Xie still called me Xiao Fan, or Ah Ning, you are an elder, I can't afford to be a big official."
Xie Jiuling is indeed an elder, not surprisingly, he is the second uncle's in-laws, and Fan Ning does not dare to put on an official stand in front of him.
Xie Jiuling has a lot of experience, he doesn't dare to call him indiscriminately, even if Fan Ning is not a high-ranking official, he is also his big customer, and the necessary respect can only be more than less.
He smiled, "Let's pay our own attention, I'll still call you Fan Zhiyuan!" I'm also at ease. ”
"Then it's up to you, where is the garden now?"
"Your garden has been completed, Mrs. Zun has also moved over, and now you are repairing the mansion next door, the progress is very fast, and the renovation and transformation will be completed at the end of this month."
Xie Jiuling received another big order, and he was also in a hurry, working overtime to repair the old house.
"Then it's hard to get uncle."
Xie Jiuling pointed to the door of the courtyard of the former subordinate and said: "This is a temporary entry and exit, the door to the house next door is locked, and the lady is coming in and out from here, do you want me to accompany the Zhiyuan to see the new house?" ”
"No need, Uncle Xie is busy!"
"Alright, we'll see you another day."
Xie Jiuling was also anxious to go to the new construction site, so he didn't insist any longer, waved to Fan Ning, and left in an ox cart.
Fanning is still leading the horse! What to do with this horse? He was a little dumbfounded.
"Old man, this new home has been repaired, and your nest seems to be gone."
"Uncle is back!"
Two subordinates rushed out from the next house, and the first one in front was Steward Wu's wife, and Fan Ning suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aunt Wu, where is the stable of the new house?"
"The stable is next door, my aunt give me the horse!"
Fan Ning handed over the horse to Steward Wu's wife, and then looked at the little maid behind her, and when she saw the other party's face clearly, Fan Ning was so shocked that her hair was about to explode.
"Ah Tao, you ..... Why are you here? ”
This little maid is Ouyang Qian's personal maid, she should be in the small courtyard outside the east gate, why did she come here?
Ah Tao gave him a blessing gift, "Qiqi official, my girl lives here now." ”
Fan Ning's head was a little dizzy, Ouyang Qian lived in his own home, which... What's going on, didn't she and Ape fight?
Fan Ning didn't dare to enter the mansion now, he hurriedly pulled Ah Tao aside and asked in a low voice: "Why did your girl move here, my lady didn't embarrass you, right?" ”
Ah Tao is fifteen or sixteen years old, and she already understands these things, she smiled and said, "It was the little lady who invited my girl to move over, and the girl has a good relationship with her?" It's like a sister. ”
Fan Ning was sad and happy in her heart, sad that Zhu Pei found out about Ouyang Qian, she didn't know how to clean herself up, that little lady dared to smash people's heads with an inkstone since she was a child, don't look at her tenderness to herself, but if she annoys her, she will also use an inkstone to pat her head.
And the joy is that Zhu Pei seems to accept Ouyang Qian, she didn't cry, make trouble and hang herself, and she didn't send Ouyang Qian to the edge of the sky with a large sum of money, which made Fan Ning breathe a long sigh of relief.
In fact, Fan Ning didn't know that Zhu Pei really wanted to give Ouyang Qian 100,000 yuan to let her leave her husband, but she was persuaded by her mother.
Fanning cleaned up the mess, and like a little daughter-in-law going to see her in-laws, she slipped into the house through the side door.
Fuzhong really became a lake, the lake is full of water chestnuts and lotuses, a 'zigzag' shaped wooden covered bridge connects Cuiyunlou and the south bank together, behind Cuiyunlou is a winding river, leading directly to the half-moon pond of the inner house, an old stone arch bridge on the river, connecting the inner house and Cuiyunlou together.
On both sides of the lake is a long corridor with eaves, and on the west side, the original courtyard of the lower people has become a hill, covered with various green trees and flowers, mostly laurel trees and other relatively valuable small trees, and a small bridge and an exquisite octagonal pavilion have been built on the top of the mountain.
The garden was indeed beautifully built, like a fairyland, but Fanning was a little absent-minded, and there were more important things waiting for him than this courtyard.
"Yo! This is which master trespassed into someone else's house, it seems to be a little familiar. ”
As soon as Fanning turned around, he saw Juppé just a few steps behind him, looking at him with a smile.
Fanning scratched his head a little embarrassed, "Apei, I'm back." ”
"It turned out that my husband was back, are you a little disappointed, why did you see me at first sight, a little old woman, not Sister Qian, who is extraordinarily beautiful!"
Fan Ning glanced at Aya and Jian Meizi behind him, but found that Jian Meizi glanced at him, as if he was asking him to coax Zhu Pei.
Fanning smiled bitterly and said, "Apei, you listen to me explain!" ”
"I don't want to hear you explain, I know better than you do!"
When Zhu Pei thought of her husband betraying her, she was suddenly furious in her heart, but she still saved a little face for Fanning, gritted her teeth and said, "You come with me!" ”
She rushed towards Cuiyun Tower in a rage, and Fanning had to follow her, secretly praying that the storm would end soon.
Aya was about to follow, but was grabbed by Jian Meizi and shook her head, the private affairs of the two of them, outsiders can't be present.
Juppe walked up to the third floor, and the anger that had been held back for months finally exploded, "You bastard! ”
She rushed forward and slapped Fanning hard, a trace of blood flowed from the corner of Fanning's mouth, Jupei felt a pain in her heart, hugged her husband again, and cried loudly.
Fanning was annoyed by her slap, but his wife's crying slowly subsided the annoyance in his heart, and he stroked Jupe's hair apologetically, and sighed: "I won't do anything sorry for you in the future." ”
"You're already sorry for me!" Juppé wept mournfully.
"I know, I didn't want to do this, but I ........," Fanning sighed, no matter how much he explained, he had already hurt his beloved wife.
"I don't want to hide it from you, I just can't find the right opportunity to tell you."
Zhu Pei raised her head to look at her husband, and saw that the corners of his mouth were bleeding, and she regretted and felt distressed, she touched her husband's face, and said with teary eyes: "I shouldn't have beaten you!" ”
"Hey! I'm supposed to fight, you don't know I've always been sorry. ”
Zhu Pei hugged her husband tightly, for fear that he would run away from him all of a sudden, "I'm sorry, I can't have children, that's why you ......"
Fan Ning was stunned, how could she think like this, he hurriedly picked up Zhu Pei, looked into her eyes and said: "Ah Pei, there is no such thing, I have never blamed you for the problem of the heir, I have never been, Ouyang Qian's matter has nothing to do with the heir, if she is doing well, I will never bother her again, but she ..... It's my machismo mentality that is too heavy. ”
"Really?"
Fanning nodded, "I will never lie to you!" ”
Zhu Pei also felt that a big stone in her heart had landed, since her mother said that the problem of heirs was the root, her heart has always been heavy, you must know that childlessness ranks second among the seven!
Now that her husband once again clearly told himself that he never blamed himself for the issue of heirs, Zhu Pei's heart suddenly dissipated, as if the sun was shining into her heart, and at this moment, Ouyang Qian's matter suddenly became unimportant.
"Husband, it's very hard to go to Yan'an Mansion this time! I see you get dark and thin. ”
Fan Ning was greatly relieved when he heard her mention her research, he knew that he had finally passed this hurdle.
"Don't mention it, I encountered the Western Xia cavalry as soon as I went, but fortunately, the Song army arrived in time and annihilated the enemy, and I also got a Xia State sword, this is it!"
Fanning took the sword from his waist and handed it to Juppé flatteringly, "Give it to the lady!" ”
"Hey! What do I want to do with the sword, it's almost the same as you give it to Sister Jian. ”
"Give it to her?"
Fan Ning was a little hesitant, he suddenly remembered that the BMW he was riding was also given to him by Jian Meizi, as if she was still helping him just now.
Fanning's heart was crossed, "Okay! If she likes it, I'll give her the sword, and I'll try to get another one. ”
Fanning was relieved, and he smiled, "I haven't taken a good look at our garden yet!" ”
Zhu Pei shook his head, "Husband, your business is not over yet, you have passed my level, but what should you do with Sister Qian's father?" Will he agree to let his daughter be someone else's concubine? ”
It's a big problem, too, but Fanning has thought of a way to take a chance.
