Chapter 409: Qi Niang is courteous
Eleven Niang, who was pinned on by Xie Ying, was also in the carriage home at this time, and it was still the album that was rummaging in her hand, this item did arouse her great interest, and she took the initiative to ask Xie Ying for a gift.
Jiu Niang because of this day of fun, when she got on the car, she was already tired, but she came forward to take a few looks, she leaned on the soft pillow to nap, dozed all the way, and to the carriage slowly stopped in front of the door of the inner house, and was awakened by the eleventh mother's nudge twice, before stretching out her arms to stretch her waist, when the maid opened the curtain outside, she was already refreshed, and her demeanor got off the car.
The two girls went to Xiao Shi to say goodbye first, and saw that their mother-in-law left Jiuniang to speak, and Eleven Niang consciously said goodbye, intending to go to Mrs. Tai's courtyard again, and it seemed that she had finally made a decision on the way, and explained to Binu: "Tell a steady person to send the album I gave you earlier to Xue's mansion, and tell Sixth Brother Xue that I will go to Shangqingguan to live for two days tomorrow." ”
But on the way to a flower garden, just met the lower abdomen has been obviously bulging Qi Niang, is walking under the escort of two careful maids, thinking of the seventh sister has been obvious to her before the marriage of the cold attitude, but Eleven Niang can only stubbornly come forward to salute, but how to know that Qi Niang affectionately held the hand, the heart of the surprised Eleven Niang raised his eyes, is seeing a smiling face.
At this time, Qi Niang, of course, is no longer the former lady dress, her face is like a wine halo, the cherry red red lips are depicted, a pair of fashionable mandarin duck eyebrows are depicted, the phoenix eyes are painted obliquely into the sideburns, and the corners of the lips are dotted with two Danzhu makeup, which is more and more cordial and enthusiastic.
Eleven Niang thought about it with difficulty, and realized that it seemed that before worshipping a real person as a teacher, Qi Niang treated her so intimately, and she was inevitably wary in her heart, and the smiling face in response was not so enthusiastic, but Qi Niang didn't mind, she still pulled her to walk slowly between the flowers and leaves, and it seemed that she had endless feelings of longing.
In the end, it was Eleven Niang who stopped this hypocrisy and politeness, and mentioned: "I heard the ninth sister say that the seventh sister returned to Chang'an this time because of her brother-in-law's exam." ”
Qi Niang's pair of deliberately ill-descriptive autumn wave eyes are more and more full of water, but she is not in a hurry to get to the point: "The ninth sister and the eleventh sister are still as close as when they were young, which really makes me envious, I married alone, and my sisters have been separated for several years, and I always think of the boudoir when I talk and laugh and play the days, but I am embarrassed." ”
Since Eleven Niang has penetrated that Qi Niang is being courteous in nothing, but because Junyi and his wife have always treated her well, they really don't want to regard Qi Niang as either a traitor or a thief, but it is precisely because of this layer of family affection between the two that the old and sophisticated Eleven Niang can't help but be euphemistic and sarcastic this time: "The seventh sister is married far away, and Aye's mother is also very concerned, only to send a letter back to Fuyang, but did not receive a word of reply, finally listened to the return of the messenger, knowing that the seventh sister did not suffer a little grievance in her husband's house, so she was slightly relieved, since the seventh sister is also so concerned about her family, How can you be so patient? ”
Although Eleven Niang used a coquettish tone, without a bit of blame attitude, it still attracted Qi Niang's beautiful eyes, but suddenly, the not very friendly attitude turned into a long sigh, full of relatives: "It's really embarrassing, it turns out that even the eleventh sister also saw that I had a grudge against Ye Niang, in fact, when I was rich, I realized that I didn't know what to do, but it was precisely because of the shame in my heart that I only felt ashamed of my kindness to Ye Niang for many years...... Fortunately, when I returned to Beijing this time, I had already complained to Ye Niang about my mistakes, and I only hope that I will no longer be thousands of miles away in the future, and I can always do my filial piety, and I may be able to make up for it a little. ”
Hearing that Qi Niang was still insincere, Eleven Niang was completely in no mood to persuade, and smiled and comforted: "How can Aye Mother complain about Seventh Sister?" ”
Seeing that Eleven Niang no longer talked too much, Qi Niang finally lost the patience to make a long story, sighed, and smiled enthusiastically: "I heard that the eleventh sister is now very dependent on the queen mother, and the elder sister is also proud, I think that the eleventh sister has been smart and extraordinary since she was a child, and she should have such a creation, Sister A is stupid, not as good as the eleventh sister, only to do her duty to teach her husband and children, although your brother-in-law is also regarded as a family scholar, in the end it is not as good as the Kyoto family, this response test, since the young must not go around, whether high school is really bottomless, look at him day by day and sigh, I am also worried in my heart, but how much help can I, a woman in the house, help me in the matter of the imperial examination? I had to ask the eleventh sister to hand over your brother-in-law's poems to He Shishilang and Xue Liulang for a look. ”
Since Qi Niang opened her mouth, Eleven Niang naturally would not refuse, so she simply agreed, but she was thinking in her heart: Although the seventh brother-in-law is not from the Kyoto family, the Han family is not a poor family, and since the seventh brother-in-law has come to Kyoto to apply for the exam, how can the father-in-law of Young Eunuch Liu ignore it? With this relationship, where does Qi Niang need to lower her figure and ask her to hand over the poems, whether He Zhan is Lu Li, will she give Liu Shaojian affection?
Sure enough, I listened to Qi Niang's next sentence: "If the eleventh sister can mention your brother-in-law in front of the queen mother, the seventh sister is even more grateful." ”
Turns out that's the key!
It seems that Qi Niang really doesn't want to leave Kyoto this time, hoping that her brother-in-law will not only be in high school, but also be able to successfully take up the position in Beijing.
In order to keep Qi Niang away from unpredictable security and peace, Xiao decided to let her marry far away, but now it seems that not only can not prevent Qi Niang from getting involved in danger, but the mother-daughter relationship has a dislike, causing Qi Niang to be more rebellious, trying to rely on her husband's official fortune to prosper and express the depression of the family's "cold abandonment", which is really ......
Eleven Niang couldn't help but sigh for Xiao's family, how much motherly warmth, but not for her own daughter to understand, hard work in vain, lest she have to worry about Qi Niang and his wife in the future.
Of course, Eleven Niang will not make her own decisions about this matter, and she must discuss it with Mrs. Wei before she can decide how to act, but when she was about to say goodbye to Qi Niang, she suddenly heard a sad "Eleventh Sister", and when she turned her head, she was hugged by a strong one before she could see who it was.
"Ninth sister, what's wrong? What is so sad about it? Don't cry yet. ”
Qi Niang still cherishes Jiu Niang's sister-in-law, although she is a little dissatisfied that Jiu Niang and Eleven Niang are so close to her sister-in-law, but seeing that Jiu Niang, who has always been cheerful and straightforward, is crying so sadly, she can't care about it, and immediately asks with concern.
Eleven Niang also comforted her repeatedly: "Ninth sister, don't worry, Seventh Sister is pregnant, can't let her worry too much, if you have something to say, no matter how much trouble, Seventh Sister and I will help Ninth Sister." ”
Jiu Niang stopped crying for the time being, but she still sobbed constantly, and was held by Qi Niang and Eleven Niang respectively, and the three sisters found a quiet place to sit down, and Jiu Niang said why she was so sad.
It turns out that Jiuniang has a friend Su Xiaoniang, although she is not from a prominent background, but her temperament is as cheerful as Jiuniang, since the two met at a banquet, they hit it off at first sight, but I suddenly heard Xiao mentioned earlier, Su Xiaoniang died of illness, because of the grief of losing her friend, Jiuniang was so out of shape.
After saying the reason, Jiu Niang still held Eleven Niang's hand and refused to relax: "I heard that Mr. Ju can attract souls to come to see, but unfortunately many nobles begged Mr. to cast spells, but he refused, and Ah Niang did not allow me to trust Fang Shi Magic, but I really want to meet Ah Su again, I don't even know that she is seriously ill...... Even if you say goodbye to her soul, you won't have a chance to have a relationship, Eleventh Sister, you must have seen Mr. Ju in the palace, if you ask for it, he may agree to perform the spell, A-Niang here I will find a way to hide it, and find another excuse to secretly see Mr. Ju. ”
Eleven Niang felt quite embarrassed, although she was also very curious about what Ju Shinan's so-called spiritualism was, but she knew that Ju Shinan was dangerous, where was she willing to let Jiu Niang approach, not to mention that even Xiao Shi was not allowed, so it was even more difficult to help Jiu Niang act secretly, but seeing that Jiu Niang was so sad, she couldn't say anything for a while, and she was hesitating how to persuade her, and she didn't want the three sisters to tell her heart here, so she didn't notice that an uninvited guest quietly "intervened".
After hearing a few muffled coughs, the three pairs of eyes saw Xiao Xiaojiu standing behind him, Liu Xiaojiu, who was sad, was ashamed and annoyed, with a red glare, but he was in no mood to quarrel with Xiao Xiaojiu, and he was still holding Eleven Niang's hand tightly and begging.
Xiao Xiaojiu coughed a few more times, and relieved the siege: "Ninth sister, don't embarrass the eleventh sister, she has always been filial, where will she disobey your aunt to help you do this sneaky thing?" Besides, the eleventh sister has easily taken these few days off, and she has to go to visit Yingyang Zhenren, and she has to prepare her aunt's birthday gift, how can she have time to go out of the city to Nanshan? Even if you have this time, if you are allowed to hide from your elder, won't you have to go to Nanshan alone? Eleventh sister is a boudoir daughter, if there is an accident in the suburbs, can you be responsible? ”
Liu Xiaojiu was asked such a series of questions by Xiao Xiaojiu, and only then did he realize that he had embarrassed Eleven Niang because of his anxiety, so he didn't plead anymore, but still burst into tears.
"Okay, the ninth sister has me here to persuade her, and the eleventh sister hasn't said hello to the eldest mother when she goes home, you can go by yourself." Qi Niang glanced at Xiao Jiulang, and saw that his gaze had been sticking to Eleven Niang, and she was dissatisfied, so she also "relieved the siege" for Eleven Niang.
As soon as Eleven Niang left, Xiao Xiaojiu immediately followed, he originally suddenly heard that Eleven Niang had returned home, so he rushed to meet him, but he didn't have time to meet Jiu Niang, and Qi Niang saw Xiao Xiaojiu so decisive, but Jiu Niang was sad and had no intention of retaining, so she was even more anxious, and simply raised her voice: "Xiao Jiu come here, I still have something to talk to you about." ”
How could Eleven Niang not understand Qi Niang's thoughts? also immediately stopped Xiao Xiaojiu's entanglement, but confessed: "The ninth sister is sad, the ninth brother should not fight with her again, if the ninth sister begs you to go to Nanshan, first agree, and afterwards just say that Mr. Ju should not, don't disobey the order of the mother, and help the ninth sister leave the house without permission." ”
Eleven Niang hadn't said so many words to Xiao Xiaojiu for a long time, the young man was so excited that his eyes were blazing, where would he refuse, the chicken pecked the rice, and nodded his head like a chicken, until he saw Eleven Niang's back disappear around the corner, and he was not without frustration to find that he had lost the opportunity to get close to his sweetheart, and he was so annoyed that he stomped his feet again and again, but Eleven Niang's instructions have always been a golden rule for him, so although Xiao Xiaojiu was reluctant, he still turned back.
Qi Niang didn't know that Eleven Niang had confessed first, and when she saw Xiao Xiaojiu turn back, she was straight to the point: "It's really not convenient for the ninth sister to ask the eleventh sister to come forward, but Xiao Jiu can go through this for the ninth sister." ”
Jiu Niang's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Xiao Jiu is not worried about his mother, but he is worried that Mr. Ju is also like those who deceive the world and steal his name, but since Mr. Ju can be trusted by the Queen Mother and the first emperor, how can it be rumored that he has a strange skill? Nine sister's wishes, I strongly support, but now I am inconvenient to travel, so I have to ask the ninth brother, if Mr. Ju agrees to perform the operation, I will think of helping the ninth sister out of the house, and I will not let her go to see outsiders alone, there is no way. ”
Hearing Qi Niang say this, Jiu Niang's teary eyes suddenly stared at Xiao Xiaojiu: "Xiao Jiu still owes me a favor!" ”
Xiao Xiaojiu pushed the boat down the river: "It doesn't matter if I go this way, but I am not sure to convince Mr. Ju, if he refuses to perform the operation, I have no choice." ”
Qi Niang just wanted to match the two Xiao Jiu, and she didn't care about whether Mr. Ju agreed to perform the spell, seeing that Xiao Jiu promised to help, she smiled slightly, but Liu Xiaojiu stared at Xiao Xiaojiu tightly: "I believe you are a gentleman, since you agree, I will go to Nanshan to plead with Mr. Ju, so as not to be perfunctory!" ”
Xiao Xiaojiu's plan was debunked by Liu Xiaojiu, his face couldn't help but turn red, and he stomped his feet heavily: "Go and go!" ”
