Chapter 46: Mid-Autumn Festival in August

The man was very obedient, smiled, stepped back as he said, and did not forget to salute Qingrong before leaving.

Only then did Qingrong see his appearance. This man's skin is as white as snow, his eyebrows are thin and his eyes are phoenix, his eyes are cold and bewitching, and his demeanor is calm and elegant... Qingrong couldn't help but stagnate, she finally knew that the "jaw dropping" in Weifu's mouth was really not an exaggeration! Such a bewitching and charming man is indeed rare! Don't talk about Mrs. Wei, there are probably not many women who can withstand it.

Qingrong hurriedly returned to his senses and saluted him back.

Don't say that it is clear, even Ah Zhen and Song Yue are also dumbfounded. Ah Zhen was bold, and wanted to take a second look, but she had no intention of looking at Gu Songzhi, and suddenly her face turned red, and she immediately lowered her head, and couldn't help but say in her heart, I don't know if it is the reincarnation of that male fox spirit, so it can bewitch people!

Mrs. Wei sensed the surprise and surprise of this master and servant, and she smiled even more happily, "How about Sanniang, do you know this time, I didn't lie to you, right?" ”

Qingrong shook his head and couldn't help laughing: "How dare I? I kind of know, Madame is really as wise as a torch, picking people's sunshine, but people have nothing to say. ”

This Mrs. Wei was born charming and moving, such a big beauty and this cold and bewitching young man stood together, not only did not violate the harmony, but the aura was compatible, very dazzling, amazing.

Mrs. Wei covered her mouth and smiled, "That's nature, who doesn't like beauties?" Although your paintings are really good, I noticed you and Siniang at a glance in the Xishi Jiahua shop, but it wasn't all because of your paintings. ”

Qingrong couldn't help but be a little shy when she heard this, and said, "Didn't Madam invite a few ladies to be guests today, why are you still hiding here?" ”

Mrs. Wei called someone to dress her up briefly, and she said, "You came earlier, why are you in a hurry, I'm not here, and my mother is there." By the way, I have already asked my mother about Yun Niang. Mother said that since people have already given you, how you use people, you are up to yourself. As he spoke, he asked someone to take Yun Niang's deed again.

Qingrong responded with a smile, and after thanking him, he asked Ah Zhen to take it carefully.

Mrs. Wei said, "Then let's go over together." ”

After a while, one after another, Mrs. Yuan and Zheng Shiniang also arrived, but Pei Lingniang did not come. Mrs. Wei asked, Zheng Shiniang showed a little embarrassed look on her face, and said, "Don't blame Madam, Ling Niang took Madame's post, and she was supposed to come." But somehow I heard that the mother of the Cui family was suddenly sick, and Ling Niang was a filial governor, so she stayed in front of the bed every step of the way to wait for the sick, and she was really lacking in skills. ”

This Zheng Shiniang married into the Pei family and was Pei Lingniang's sister-in-law. Hearing her say this, Pei Lingniang also happened suddenly, Mrs. Wei nodded, "I see, there is nothing big about me here, you can tell her to serve her with peace of mind." ”

"Thank you, ma'am." Zheng Shiniang sighed and said, "Ling Niang is really pitiful, she has done so much to serve, and she can't get a good face... Now I suddenly fell ill, and I don't know if I was worried too much. It is such a well-behaved and considerate person as Ling Niang, who is always picked on and does not take care of affairs well, and is reprimanded every three or five times, on such a hot day, she was called by her mother-in-law to stand in the sun. ”

Mrs. Yuan's face was surprised: "Ling Niang is not good at taking care of affairs? "If Pei Lingniang doesn't do well, then few of the official wives in this group of officials can really say that they can handle it well.

Mrs. Wei shook her head when she heard this, "This is too much. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, fortunately, my husband died early, and I lived back to my parents' house. However, this Pei Lingniang also died of illness in her first husband, but she later married Cui Ningqian, the eldest man of the Cui family... It seems that he is still this celibate, chic and happy.

Zheng Shiniang said: "Who knows, since the marriage with the Cui family, I have been dissatisfied with Ling Niang many times openly and secretly married in the past, and always make things difficult everywhere. It's enough for this daughter-in-law to do this. ”

This is said to be funny, Qingrong can't help but be funny, if Pei Lingniang doesn't mention it in half a sentence, how do you know that you are a sister-in-law? The words were all said from other people's mouths, but she Pei Lingniang didn't say a bad word. Since she Pei Lingniang's reputation and filial piety are all over the place, these things are spread, who will say that Pei Lingniang is not, I'm afraid that they are all secretly narrow-minded and intolerant.

This kind of kung fu and the ability to bend and stretch are also admirable. The people here are not blind and blind, and they also know these twists and turns, but they know that they know that they can do something like Pei Lingniang, but there are still few. Just being able to endure it like this is beyond the reach of most people.

Qingrong listened on the sidelines, did he echo the sentence, "If you really have a scripture that is difficult to read." Zheng Shiniang also sighed, and several people sighed again, and then told all the recent things in Yongcheng, had lunch, and after talking for a long time, they each withdrew and left.

On the eighth day of August, there was a sudden news from the palace that Concubine Xie was deposed. It didn't take long for Xie Yuan to be mercilessly relegated to Shu by the sage... Qingrong didn't know what was going on in the Luyuan Palace, which was hundreds of miles away, but when the news reached Yongcheng, it did cause a great shock, and many people could only look cautiously and pray secretly not to affect themselves.

It was easy to cool down for a few days, and the heat in Yongcheng hit again. Everyone complained about the terrible ghost weather when they met, but they didn't dare to talk about the news from the palace hundreds of miles away.

After Qingrong returned home, the first Mid-Autumn Festival reunion day, Siniang was far away in the palace, Xue Shao knew that Qingrong cared about his family, and after spending the festival at Xue's house in the morning, he took the initiative to accompany her back to Lu's house for the holiday.

Lin Quzi stayed for a long time this time, and he also stayed at the Lu family for the holiday. He talked to Lu Wenzhong about the appointment with Xue Shao to paint, Lu Wenzhong had never seen Xue Yunshi's gun, and after listening to Lin Quzi, he also came to watch Xue Shao's dancing gun with interest, knowing that Xue Shao and Qingrong were coming, Lin Quzi did not wait to choose another time, and set the Mid-Autumn Festival day with Xue Shao in advance.

The Wang family was not interested in this kind of dancing gun and stick, and did not want to join in the excitement, Qingrong wanted to see it, but it was not good to leave the Wang family alone, so he accompanied the Wang family to leave the table, leaving only Lu Wenzhong and the three of them in the banquet.

It's just that Ah Zhen is a very lively person, and she took the initiative to mention to Qingrong that she wanted to take a look for her, but she didn't want to miss the opportunity. Qingrong saw that she liked it, and went with her.

Wang said: "You don't want to go and see? ”

Qingrong was amused and said, "Isn't this afraid that A-Niang will find it boring?" A-Niang thinks I'm up? ”

"What nonsense, you haven't spent the Mid-Autumn Festival at home for several years, and now that you're back, A-Niang is naturally happy." Saying that, Wang couldn't help but sigh, "I don't know what happened to Siniang over there, your grandfather didn't mention it today, and he kept talking about it a few days ago..."

Qingrong said with relief: "A-Niang, don't worry, didn't Siniang write to her a few days ago to say that everything is okay with her, so that we can rest assured?" ”

"I hope so. But if you look at the news coming from there, why isn't it worrying? ”

Qingrong knew what the Wang family meant, and she persuaded with a gentle face: "Although it is thrilling, but now that the matter in the harem is about to subside, Siniang may be able to return home soon, which is also a good thing." "It was a helpless move to send Siniang away at the beginning, but now that the Xie family has fallen, Siniang doesn't have to live in the palace for a long time.

Speaking of this, the Wang family nodded a little relieved, "That's right, as long as people come back safely." ”

The two couldn't help but talk about Concubine Xian, and Siniang also said in the letter that Concubine Xian hurt her body after giving birth at that time, and I heard that her body was not as good as before, which was also worrying... Now they are afraid that the only thing they can do is to hope that Concubine Xian and Siniang are safe and sound day and night in this Yongcheng.

When the two returned to the seat, Xue Shao had already put away the gun and sat back on the seat. Qingrong saw that his breath was uneven, and a thin sweat was oozing from his forehead, so he took the initiative to hand over the handkerchief, and said warmly: "Wipe it." ”

Xue Shao hummed and took the veil.

Lin Quzi's eyes were about to light up when he looked at Xue Shao, and he smiled: "I don't think Changxuan is worse than An Qugong at all!" It's terrifying! Such an instrument, between swinging the gun, the combination of rigidity and softness, heroic posture! My trip was really not in vain! ”

Qingrong was also a little surprised when he saw this, Lin Quzi rarely praised people like this, and he said that it must have been good.

But Xue Shao didn't see a conceited and smug look, he said modestly: "Don't dare to be, you can't compare with An Qugong." ”

Lu Wenzhong was also very satisfied, and he smiled: "In my opinion, the same is true, you don't have to be modest!" Lu Wenzhong looked at Xue Shao more and more satisfied, although he was a little wooden, but he was not arrogant or impatient, brave and capable of martial arts, and his conduct was still good, which was indeed very good.

After a full meal, it was getting late. Xue Shao and Qingrong did not plan to return to Xue's mansion, but stayed at Lu's house to rest for one night. Fortunately, the Wang family had asked someone to clean up Qingrong's house in the afternoon, otherwise it would have been a bit rushed.

Xue Shao was also kept by Lu Wenzhong and Lin Quzi to eat and drink, Qingrong went back to the room first, after Ah Zhen saw Xue Shao's dancing gun, he saw Qingrong, and praised him along the way.

Qingrong couldn't help but laugh, "Look at you, is it really so exciting?" ”

Ah Zhen nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes!" Much more wonderful than what I saw on the street! Ah Lang is really good at gun dancing, if I look for a son-in-law in the future, I also want to find someone with extraordinary skills, and the lady will have to polish her eyes and choose for me. ”

Qingrong couldn't help but laugh when she heard it, Song Yue and Yun Niang couldn't help laughing, Song Yue quipped, "You want to find your son-in-law so quickly?" Isn't it already good for each other, just waiting for the lady to call the shots for you? ”

Ah Zhen hurriedly argued, "No!" I listen to the lady, but I always have to let the lady know who I want to marry. What do you say, lady? ”

Qingrong smiled: "I wrote it down, and I will pay attention to it for you then." ”

Ah Zhen smiled and bent her eyes and said, "Thank you, lady!" It's better to be a lady. ”

"Less poor mouth." Qingrong thought of how much wine Xue Shao had drunk at the banquet, and ordered: "I will ask someone to cook some sobering soup and boil some hot water." ”

Ah Zhen was not diligent, and hurriedly said: "I'll go now, don't worry, lady." ”

Her appearance is so funny that Qingrong and Yun Niang are funny, Song Yue couldn't help but shake her head and smiled: "Look at this little girl, I don't know what to think about all day long." ”

Qingrong smiled, "Don't you know her yet?" It's just a simple temperament, and it's not surprising to ponder these all day long. ”

At this time, Xue Shaozheng came in from outside, and Song Yue and Yun Niang saluted and said, "Ah Lang." ”

Xue Shao waved his hand to signal them to go down, he walked to Qingrong's side, stroked Qingrong's face with one hand, and asked, "What are you laughing at, so happy?" ”

He had a little alcohol on his body, his eyes were slightly red, and he looked at him with a clear face and asked, "How much wine have you drunk?" After saying that, he called for decanting soup and hot water.

Xue Shao shook his head, "Not much, Mr. Lin and Grandpa are drunk, but I'm fine." As he spoke, there was a smug or two between his eyebrows, like a child waiting for Qingrong to praise him.

Qingrong smiled helplessly, let him sit down and drink the sobering soup, and asked him to change his clothes and wipe his face, Xue Shao did it one by one, "You rest first, I'll come by myself." ”

He also remembered that Qingrong didn't like the smell of wine, so he changed his clothes with quick hands and feet, and after a simple wash, he smelled his clothes again, and made sure that the wine dissipated a little, and then went to bed. He approached Qingrong lightly, thought for a moment, and reached out to hug her.
