Chapter 65: Fishing Nets
When Xiao's mother and daughter were chatting in the room, they didn't know that they were all listened to by Mama Liu outside, and when she heard that Su Leying was about to come out, she also hurried back to Su Yanran.
Then she said it all to Su Yanran without falling: "Miss, are you going to stop her? Otherwise, if she really let her go to Yanzhou with the prince, it will be too late if she succeeds." Seeing that Su Yanran didn't care, she blurted out, "No, the old slave has to report this matter to the queen."
Su Yanran looked at her anxious face, and couldn't help but laugh lightly: "I won't stop her, I will go to my father to persuade her to fulfill her, and don't tell your aunt about this."
"Miss, why is that?" When Mama Liu heard her say this, she subconsciously frowned, and her face disagreed.
After Su Yanran glanced at her, she first asked Jinyi to fetch the cloth left by her mother, and then said coldly to Mama Liu, "I have my own ideas, Mama Liu, I ask you something."
"Miss, please say, the old slave must know everything."
"Are you mine or aunt?"
Su Yanran's question softened Mama Liu's straight waist.
Yes, she should be the eldest lady now, but the queen is on the queen's side......
Su Yanran saw the tangled look in her eyes, so she spoke again: "You have your concerns, and I don't embarrass you, but there is one thing I hope you can hear clearly, if I tell you clearly what I don't want my aunt to know, then you'd better keep your mouth shut, and the rest, whatever you want."
Mama Liu knew that this was the first and last time she reminded herself, she looked at the eldest lady in front of her who had changed since Jinyi's incident, and met her eyes that were more indifferent than before, and her heart couldn't help but feel weak for a while, and she hurriedly said, "Yes."
At this time, Jin Yi commanded the other servants to carry several boxes and open them one by one.
Su Yanran looked at these things that had not been privately eaten by the Xiao family, and she asked Jin Yi to pick out the materials suitable for making winter clothes first.
Jin Yi asked curiously while picking, "Miss, the queen may not be able to wear you in a winter, but you still have to do it?"
"It's going to be done, but it's not for me but for Yanzhi, you can also make a set for her yourself, don't you want to thank her well and repay her kindness last time?" Su Yanran smiled softly.
Jin Yi said "oops", "How can you pay off such a big life-saving favor with just one set of clothes?!"
Su Yanran's smile deepened a lot, she looked at the picked out cloth, and muttered, "Yes, then I will pay it back slowly, and it will take a lifetime."
"Miss?" Jinyi looked at Su Yanran, who was suddenly distracted, and stretched out her hand and shook it in front of her eyes.
Su Yanran shook her head with a smile and said, "Why don't you make new clothes for Yanzhi in the future?"
Jinyi thought about it and felt that the eldest lady had a good idea, she knew that the peach and apricot girl next to Master Lin was a good cook, but when it came to making clothes, she believed that her craftsmanship would be better, after all, it was taught by Mrs. Xian herself, of course, embroidery is not as good as the eldest lady.
With this in mind, she chose the cloth more carefully.
Su Yanran looked at the cloth she had placed on the table, looked back and forth a few times, and after finalizing which ones to use, she asked Jinyi to get it first, turned her head and asked Mama Liu, "If Your Highness goes to Yanzhou, then Yan Zhi will definitely follow her side, can you know when they will leave?"
"Listen to this, the old slaves, they don't seem to know either."
Su Yanran thought about it, suddenly got up, and walked out the door, and Mama Liu hurriedly followed.
Her steps were a little bigger than usual, and she didn't adjust back until she walked quickly to the outside of Su Yunqi's study, and after the housekeeper passed it on, she entered and saw the two people inside, and the corners of her mouth were faintly raised.
It's good that she's still there.
Su Yunqi looked at the two daughters in front of him coming to him one after the other, he put down his pen, spread his hands and asked, "It's rare for you to come to me, but do you have something important?"
Su Leying frowned and glanced at Su Yanran, and when she saw her open mouth, she hurriedly said, "My daughter wants to go back to the queen's mother."
"You...... Ying'er, you begged your father to take you
Why did you come back suddenly?" He was wondering if his sister had sent someone to tell her?
Su Leying thought about how to explain it, and Su Yanran said loudly: "Presumably my sister came back to know that my aunt's intentions are good, father, now my sister's gossip is being said outside, she should hide and be quiet when she goes back to the palace, and her daughter also begged her father to allow her."
Su Leying stared at her suspiciously, feeling that something was wrong, why did she want to help herself, there shouldn't be anything boring in this, right?
She rolled her eyes a few times, thinking: Or, or not?
However, before she could take her words back, Su Yunqi had already said, "In this case, you can go to the palace with me tomorrow." He sighed secretly, thinking that even God couldn't see him hesitate so much, so he would let Ying'er talk to him by herself, just that, sooner or later she will suffer, and it is better to go earlier after all.
Su Leying had no choice but to bow her head and say yes, seeing that her goal had been accomplished, she was about to turn around and go back to Xiao's place, but when she heard Su Yanran speak again at this time, she stopped her movements again and pricked up her ears to listen to her purpose.
"Father, the queen mother gave me some cloth, and the daughter thought that the color was exactly what her cousin liked, but the daughter was thin-faced and didn't dare to give it to him herself, so she wanted to wait until it was ready, and asked her father to hand it over on her behalf." Su Yanran lowered her eyes and said.
Su Yunqi looked at her as a shy look of her daughter's family, recently this eldest daughter is really getting more and more satisfied, and they all began to know how to take the initiative to please the future husband, he laughed, thought about it and said, "It's a small thing, but my father mentioned you, you have to do it before the Mid-Autumn Festival."
"This ...... Why the rush?"
He looked at his little daughter with a look of eagerness to know, and thought that it would be okay to tell them, so he said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will leave Shengjing on the night after the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, don't tell others about this, can you hear it?"
Su Yanran secretly glanced at Su Leying with her spare eyes, and saw that she nodded, I don't know what she was thinking, her face was a little red, seeing her like this, she herself was even more happy, so she also smiled and nodded, and then said: "My aunt has already ordered her daughter to go to the banquet with her, so let her daughter send it herself, and it is good to have some heartfelt words with my cousin before he leaves Beijing."
"It's okay, when Your Highness returns, your marriage should also be mentioned, then you can take advantage of this to say a few more thoughtful words to him and let him know that you are a good one." Su Yun opened his jaw and said.
"Yes."
Thoughtful words?
She just wanted to make sure that Su Leying would go with him.
Su Yanran didn't say anything more, and went back after a slight bow, and deliberately smiled obviously as she passed by Su Leying's side.
Sure enough, on her way back, Su Leying chased after her and shouted to her angrily: "Don't be too proud! Su Yanran, let me tell you, I will definitely enter the East Palace before you!"
"Really? Why is my sister so determined?" Su Yanran turned around and asked.
Su Leying was stunned by her question, and finally only snorted and stomped her feet: "I just know!"
"Then my sister wishes you all the best, if nothing else, I will go back to make clothes first." After Su Yanran finished speaking, she turned around neatly and continued to walk forward.
Su Leying was left alone and gritted his teeth.
In the evening, in the corner of the Guangju Teahouse, a male guest ordered some food, sat for a while, he occasionally ate two bites, drank two cups, but his eyes were slightly cloudy, and from time to time he looked at the shopkeeper who was as black as if he had come out of the coal mine.
Wei Qiancheng naturally felt his gaze, but he continued to do the work of the shopkeeper without moving, and when he cleaned up the table, he walked to the shopkeeper Li.
Shopkeeper Li raised his head from the abacus ledger and said with a smile, "But you're done with the work? Then go home and rest early."
Wei Qiancheng said loudly: "I had a quarrel with my family yesterday, do you want to go to the newly opened wine shop in the west of the city to have a drink today, and the shopkeeper will come together?"
"It's said that there is a fight at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed, this woman, just coax, Erha, don't go drinking, otherwise when you come home full of alcohol, you will have to quarrel again." Shopkeeper Li shook his head and persuaded.
Wei Qiancheng shrugged,
He bowed down, turned his head and strode out the door.
Seeing this, the male guest put the money on the table and walked away quickly, following him unhurriedly.
When Shopkeeper Li saw this scene, he squinted, turned around and walked to the door of the private room, and knocked on the door: "Childe, you're all gone, but you want to send someone to follow secretly?"
Then, the door opened, and after Shopkeeper Li entered and closed the door, he turned around and walked to Qin Tianan's side and waited.
Qin Tianan poured a glass of wine and asked, "Can you see clearly who are the people?"
Shopkeeper Li nodded: "Hui Gongzi, it is one of them, and the little one will not remember the mistakes."
There was a small-eyed, skinny man standing on the side, and after looking at it, he could find that it was actually the rib boy who claimed to be Su Leying's lover that day, but his nose was different, and he asked, "Do you want to go down and have a look?"
"No need, lest you break the fishing net set up by the eldest brother, that kid in Wei Qiancheng is not a vegetarian, Yan Ming, have you seen those people at the Yunlin Inn?" Qin Tianan raised his wine glass and stared at the wine inside.
"Hui Gongzi, my subordinates have only seen a few in the Yunlin Inn, and there are others who are still looking for them."
Qin Tianan put down the wine glass, the wine in it spilled on his hand, he raised his hand, looked at it carefully for a while, wiped them off, and then said, "Before I leave Shengjing, I must find all the wine for my eldest brother, so that he can catch it all."
"Yes. By the way, Childe, do you want to make more trouble for that woman over there?"
Qin Tianan said with a smile: "The trouble you caused her is enough for her to suffer for a while, you have done a good job in this matter, go and receive the reward."
"Gongzi Xie." Yan Ming took a few steps back and left. t.
Qin Tianan looked at the door that had been closed again, and slowly spoke, "Shengjing to Yanzhou, all the arrangements along the way?"
Shopkeeper Li arched his hand and said: "Childe, don't worry, you have been ordered, there will be no outsiders staying in the inns everywhere when you stay, it's just that when our people want to wait in the dark places on the road where you must pass, Childe, we find that someone has already stayed first."
"That must be someone arranged by the eldest brother."
"Hui Gongzi, there are two groups of people, one of which seems to be Prime Minister Su."
Qin Tianan said "um", thought for a while, and ordered, "Also, in addition to the two side rooms where my eldest brother and I live, Yanzhi's one should also be more comfortable."
"Miss Lin is going with you? The little one is going to command something."
