At night, after a few times of restraint and relief, Fu Qiufang held her cheeks and meditated, refusing to fall asleep. Li Weijian knew his thoughts, smiled and stroked his body, and asked, "Why don't you sleep yet?" ”

Fu Qiufang smiled: "The concubine can't sleep for a while." ”

She was embarrassed to say that she was excited by those words before, so she only frowned and said, "Miss Noble is also pitiful, with such a mother and brother." ”

Li Weijian said: "You still say Miss Bao? Your brother wrote again this month, right? ”

Fu Qiufang was distressed at first, and then said leisurely: "Brother is not dead yet, he is bent on being an official." ”

"And what do you think?"

Fu Qiufang glanced at him and said, "What else can I do?" Follow the elder brother, but I'm afraid of causing trouble for the master. Now it's just coaxing him with words, lest he lose his heart and can't think about it anymore. ”

There were some things that Fu Qiufang didn't say, and the elder brother was good at answering correctly, but it was just a lie. But her sister-in-law, who didn't know where to hear Fu Qiufang climbed Gao Zhi'er, came to the door these days, wiped her tears with false affection, and only said that her brother Fu Xian had been guarding it.

Fu Qiufang is not a little daughter-in-law who does not leave the door, where is she willing to believe such words? After a while, I didn't want to turn my head and looked for it again.

Thinking of Aunt Xue's embarrassment, Fu Qiufang secretly woke up to herself, her sister-in-law was already a confused person, no matter what she thought, she had to quickly cut the mess and send this person away.

After thinking about it and coming back to his senses, he saw that Li Weijian was already asleep. Fu Qiufang carefully lifted the brocade quilt to cover his chest and abdomen, and then attached it to his arm, and felt extremely stable in his heart, and fell asleep after a while.

……………………………………………………

Turning the day, Ying'er passed through the Tubi Villa, came down from the main mountain, and then entered the Wuyuan.

Baochai sat idly in front of the bed, contemplating with her cheeks propped up. Ying'er sent the little maid out, leaned over and said, "Girl-"

Baochai came back to his senses, looked at Ying'er and said, "How is it?" ”

Ying'er said: "Accept it, Miss Xie who has no mouth for the two grandmothers." After a pause, Ying'er wondered: "Good and decent, what did the girl give them objects?" ”

Baochai didn't answer, got up and sat down in front of the dresser, and found a golden hairpin, and Ying'er hurriedly grabbed it and plugged it in. The master and servant didn't say anything, and they went out of the Wuyuan Garden, out of the Grand View Garden, and went towards the small courtyard in the northeast.

Tongxi watched in front of the courtyard early in the morning, and saw Baochai and Ying'er coming, and hurriedly led them in.

"Madam, the girl is here."

Baochai flashed inside, Aunt Xue looked withered, glanced at her, and then got up and grabbed Baochai's hands: "My son......"

"Mom." The girl's name was cleared, and Baochai glanced around.

Aunt Xue said, "You all go down, you don't have to wait." ”

The maids retreated, and Aunt Xue said, "My son, the Li family has responded." This matter can be regarded as a cover-up. I'm afraid that the maid and the mother-in-law will talk about it. ”

Sister Bao's face was demure, and she bowed her head and said: "If the next person wants to say, just say it, who is not talked about in this garden?" There was also a mother-in-law in front of her who said that the four girls were not biological. ”

Sister Bao thought clearly, just block the mouths of the Li family and Feng Yatou, then everything is easy to say. As for what the people below say, which sentence is true or false, and which one is true?

And Mother Jia didn't want to see her, it was her aunt Mrs. Wang who had the heart to promote the good relationship of gold and jade, as long as Mrs. Wang was determined, and she was not afraid of gossip and Baochai.

Moreover, in the past few years, the Xue family has thrown a lot of money down. There is a way not to look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, for the sake of the money, it is expected that the rumors will not help her.

Because Baochai slightly let go of his thoughts, although now the handle is in the hands of Feng Yatou, there is always a chance to turn around. As far as it is not good, it will follow the meaning of the phoenix girl in the future.

Then Baochai said: "Mom, did you tell my brother about it?" ”

"That's it! Why didn't you say it? Aunt Xue frowned and said, "I broke it and crumpled it, and I don't know how much it took to speak." However, your brother is a confused person, and now he is still holding his neck for your own good. ”

Baochai suddenly couldn't cry or laugh. For his own good, he almost ruined his name this time, and if he comes again, where will he still have the face to live?

Aunt Xue said again: "He is so old again, he can't learn from your aunt to Baoyu and lock your brother at home." ”

Sister Bao was tired again. She has also seen the family in Jinling, but she is just a flying eagle and a horse, relying on red and green, although people are not motivated, but they have never caused a big disaster.

His brother is good, always filial to his mother and protects his sister, but he always does bad things with good intentions. Now Sister Bao wishes that her brother would also learn to play naughty nonsense every day, so that he will not cause trouble, although the Xue family's family business will be lost, it will not be completely ruined.

If you are lucky enough to have someone who can forge ahead in the next generation, I can't say that the Xue family will make another career.

Now like this, Sister Bao only feels that her eyes are dark, and she can't see the future at all.

Thinking of this section, Sister Bao's heart was sour. She threw away thousands of things for the Xue family, and even forcibly suppressed the ripples in her heart that day, and often took cold incense pills to suppress the fire in her heart, but what did she get in the end?

Nothing!

I knew this was the case, but if I followed my heart, I would have been better off than I am now.

The mother and daughter were silent for a while, and Aunt Xue said, "I came back late yesterday, and Xue Zhen didn't come to the door." Somehow, why are you going to come to the door today? My son, we have to think about how to deal with it. ”

It is not Xue Pan's mistake to buy the shares of the Shanxi Coal Mine in Nalaoshizi privately, how could the family lose a lot of money? There is not much silver left here in the second room, but twenty or thirty thousand silver, no matter what, you can get it by squeezing it. Because of Xue Pan, he can't squeeze it out now.

Baochai said: "Didn't my mother make up her mind yesterday? When the elder brother marries the daughter of the Xia family, he will give a sum of money from the dowry to the second room. ”

Seeing that Aunt Xue wanted to speak and stopped, Baochai got up and said, "Sister Qin is new, and I, as a sister, will always take care of it." Mom sits, and I go first. ”

Aunt Xue got up and chased two steps, opening her mouth to speak, but she didn't say anything. knew that this chilled Baochai's heart...... In fact, did it just chill Baochai's heart? Thinking of yesterday's humiliation, Aunt Xue's face turned red. And everything is thanks to Xue Pan!

Aunt Xue knew that it was not good for Yang Baochai to do more, so she could only stop and sigh, and watched Baochai lead Ying'er away.

But it was said that Sister Bao went to Jia's mother's courtyard, and when she got inside, she realized that Xue Xiaomei was invited by a group of girls, and this time she was wandering in the Grand View Garden. Baochai sat with him for a while, and then got up to look for it.

All the way into the Grand View Garden, you can hear the Yihong Courtyard full of laughter and laughter.

Baochai led Ying'er to follow the sound, and when she entered the Yihong Courtyard, she saw a group of girls laughing around Baoqin.

Cui Wei said, 'Miss Bao is here', so everyone looked over.

Baoqin looked back and smiled: "Sister is here." ”

Baochai smiled and looked carefully, and saw that Baoqin was wearing a white silk and pink trimmed collared mid-collar, covered with a beige flowered shawl, and a green pleated skirt underneath. That's it, there is also a gold-inlaid treasure four seasons flower on the head of the partial birth.

The five red, four green and nine fingernail-sized gems on Hua Tian'er were particularly eye-catching, and Baochai couldn't help but wonder: "Where did Hua Tian'er come from?" ”

Baoqin smiled and said, "Early in the morning, the old lady saw that my flower was broken, so she found one for me." ”

Xiangyun pretended to eat the taste: "I know this Hua Tian'er, but my aunt's grandmother pressed the baby at the bottom of the box, and Sister Lin didn't see it for her like this, but gave it to you, it can be seen that the old lady really loves you." ”

Dai Yu glanced at her and said with a smile: "I don't dare to compare with Sister Qin...... I'm afraid, I can only compare to the cloud girl. ”

Xiangyun suddenly snorted.

Baochai smiled and said: "Everyone has their own fate, I didn't expect her to come at this time, even if she came, there was an old lady who loved her so much." ”

Xiangyun said to Baoqin again: "In addition to being in front of the old lady, you come to the garden, these two places, just joke and eat and drink." When you get to your wife's house, if your wife is in the house, just laugh with your wife and sit down more. If your wife is not in the house, don't go in, because there are many people in the house who are bad-hearted, and they will all harm us. ”

Everyone laughed together, and Baochai also laughed: "You say you have no heart, but you have a heart; Although he has a heart, his mouth is too straight in the end. We're a little like you. Speaking of which, have you ever sequenced the Geng teeth? ”

Xiangyun suddenly smiled brightly and said: "The preface has passed, Sister Qin is from Layue, half a month younger than me, and only older than the fourth girl." ”

As he was talking, he saw Amber coming over and said with a smile: "The old lady said, tell the girls to leave Miss Qin alone." She's still young, so let her love as she wants. If you want something, just go, don't worry about it. ”

As soon as everyone responded, although Baochai knew Jia's mother's thoughts, she couldn't help but taste it, so she smiled and nudged Baoqin, and said, "You don't know where the blessing comes from!" Go down, and we'll be careful with you. I don't believe that I am inferior to you. ”

Xiang Yunyin said with a smile: "Sister Bao, although you are joking, some people really think so." He said with a giggle and looked at Daiyu.

Daiyu also smiled, pulled Baoqin in her arms, and said: "When I see this sister, it's like a sister, but it's a hundred times stronger than a certain girl." He looked at Baoqin again and said, "Sister, might as well move to my Xiaoxiang Pavilion?" ”

Amber said, "It's not good, it's not good, the old lady is still rare, but I am reluctant to let the girl go to the garden." ”

Everyone laughed again, and Tanchun came over and said, "As soon as the party broke out, it made Sister Qin slow down for a while." ”

Baochai smiled and asked, "What do you say?" ”

Yingchun said: "What else? A few girls each came up with a rhyme, embarrassed by the sister of the qin. ”

Bao Qin said brightly: "What's so difficult about this? Hold it off, I have an idea now. ”

At that moment, the maid sent pen and ink, and everyone scattered to watch, and saw Xue Xiaomei sitting down freely, lifting the pen and ink.

Baochai approached the view, but it was to wait for the swallow with the curtain, the hairpin flower in the mirror, listen to the rain with the lantern, and rely on the diaphragm to fish.

Baochai asked herself, such a tricky topic, I'm afraid that she will have to spend a while to deal with it.

But when he saw Xue Baoqin holding a pen, he didn't stop at all, because he wrote down four pieces of paper.

Xiangyun loves to make noise the most, and when he has written, he will draw it in his hand and read it.

After a while, it was written, called Rolling Blinds to Wait for Yan, and Xiangyun recited: "Comb your hair in the shadow of the east wind, and listen to the murmur outside the window." The caisson is waiting for the double jade scissors, and the curtain is on the small silver hook. It is suspected that the soft language will be discussed, and there seems to be tenderness to stay. The new mud is refilled, and the fragrance still remembers the old makeup building. ”

After reciting, all the women praised one after another.

After a while, another recitation was opened: "The first sunny and light rain willows are delicate, and the morning is about to add makeup and heating." If you want to sweep the eyebrows of the distant mountains, you can enjoy the hairpin and tender hairpins. The crows and green greasy clouds are three around, and the light of the mirror is one of the moon. The thick fragrance of the nail decoction frequently looks at the shadow, and the curtain hangs for a long time for the fragrance. ”

After hearing this, Daiyu sincerely praised: "This sister is so talented." ”

Tanchun said truthfully: "If you really talk about it, I'm afraid it's not bad with Sister Lin and Sister Bao." ”

Xue Xiaomei didn't push back, and continued to ink with a smile.

The third que came out, and Xiangyun recited: "Luo Yi replaced the old light silk at the beginning, and burned a petal of heart incense by hand." Do not dissociate and plant cardamom, and plant plantamen for listening to the showers. The silver hook is written in thin letters, and the red candle wind is slightly shaking. The sound of autumn is lazy, and the weather is cool for a long time. ”

Xiangyun has always been a 'true celebrity and self-style', he can climb trees when he is crazy, burn incense, play the piano, compose poems, and come to everything. At this time, he was also moved by Xue Xiaomei's talent, and threw away the paper and hugged Baoqin and said: "Good sister, my Yihong Courtyard is very empty, if I go and ask the old lady, you can move here." ”

Bao Qin smiled: "Sister Yun will go and talk to the old lady first." ”

Amber was not in a hurry to reply, but only memorized it attentively on the side, and urged: "Miss Qin still has one left." ”

"Here it is."

As he spoke, Baoqin wrote the fourth que again.

Xiangyun copied it again and recited: "Hands are tired and stop needles, the summer is long, and the green shade is deep to protect the small Hengtang." The jagged algae vermilion fish is hidden, and the twists and turns are dry and green. The reflection of the beautiful makeup and jealousy color, the slow agarwood bait water shakes the light. Borrow him for short fishing to relieve the heat and heat, and be used in the pond in June. ”

Sique Boudoir Pavilion was written with words, and I saw Baoqin tilting her head and smiling at everyone. There was a little pride in that smile, which was not only not annoying in the eyes of everyone, but also extremely pleasing. Because it was Daiyu and Xiangyun who pulled one of Baoqin's hands, they said that they couldn't wait to split it, and one of them took half of it back.

There was a burst of laughter in Yihong Courtyard, and Dubaochai smiled but didn't say a word. She was secretly shocked in her heart, she didn't want this cousin's character to be so brilliant!

Appearance is better than her by three points, and talent is afraid that she will also win by three points! It's a shame that she is still young, otherwise with Baoqin as a comparison, who will remember her Baochai?

……………………………………………………

At the end of the day, Baoqin accompanied Jia's mother for a while, and then came to the Grand View Garden to wander around. When they arrived at Deyi Red Courtyard first, two cranes saw Debaoqin and greeted them from afar, and then a group of birds, mallards, flower emus, and colorful mandarin ducks also came around.

Bao Qin smiled and shook his sleeves, and shook out the blue stem rice grains that he had just hidden from the handkerchief, which immediately attracted a crowd of waterfowl to rush wildly.

Baoqin giggled: "It's all there, eat slowly." Huh? Don't rob the two of you cranes, wouldn't it be better to go looking for fish on your own? ”

The two cranes listened, called a few times, and then turned away.

Baoqin lifted her skirt and got up, and was about to leave, when she raised her eyes and saw Xiangyun leaning on Mennahan to observe.

"Sister Yun?"

Xiangyun's eyes widened, and he praised: "Sister Qin still has such ability? Saying that, he walked quickly, pulling Baoqin and looking up and down: "The two cranes in this Yihong Courtyard are the most bullying and afraid of the hard, and they chased and pecked me every day when I first came." Later, I gave up the fish to feed, and it gradually matured. Tsk, how did Sister Qin accept it? ”

Baoqin said: "I don't know...... Xu reasoned with it, and it made sense? ”

"Huh?" Xiangyun hesitated, put aside Baoqin and chased after the crane for a few steps, and shouted: "Crane, he'er, can you catch a fish for me?" ”

The two cranes ignored Xiangyun and walked away with their long legs.

"What, it's useless."

Xiangyun turned around and came back, pulled Baoqin and left.

"Sister Yun?"

"Let's go, there are parrots in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and a nest of big swallows, and look at your ability."

The two girls held hands and went to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion together. At this time, Daiyu had just taken a nap and was teaching parrots in the study.

Zijuan lured Xiangyun and Baoqin in, and Daiyu smiled: "Why are you here?" ”

Xiangyun Xianbao said: "Sister Lin knows that Sister Qin has great skills." If you don't believe it, you see-" Turning her head to look at Baoqin, Baoqin smiled and beckoned to the green-headed parrot: "What a beautiful parrot, come." ”

The parrot 'quacked', fluttered its wings, and fell into Baoqin's hand in a blink of an eye. Bao Qin touched his head, and the parrot closed its eyes with great pleasure.

Daiyu was surprised, and Zijuan was even more surprised: "This parrot is only close to our girl, and whoever gets close in Su Ri will open his teeth and dance his claws." It's also strange, how can you get so close to the piano girl? ”

Xiangyun said proudly: "What is this, the two cranes in Yihong Courtyard are very obedient to Sister Qin's words." ”

At this time, the snow goose chased in from outside, and when she heard such a mystery, she couldn't help but say: "Xu is the crane and the parrot are all human, I don't know if the girl is still spiritual?" It just so happens that the grandmother's Daoxiang Village has raised a lot of chickens, ducks and geese, so why don't we let Miss Qin give it a try. ”

Daiyu said: "Mouthy, are you a piano girl?" ”

The snow goose suddenly stuck out her tongue, but Baoqin said cheerfully: "I also wonder, in the past, it was only cats, dogs, and birds that were close to me, but I don't know what chickens, ducks and geese said." Hey, why don't we try it together? ”

Xiangyun immediately responded, and urged Daiyu to come too, so the three girls went out of Xiaoxiang Pavilion and went to Daoxiang Village.

A group of people passed by the Lotus Lotus Champs, and at this time Xichun painted in the interior, listened to the movement and came out to watch, and then went to see the excitement on the side.

After a while, he arrived at Daoxiang Village, at this time, only the maid Biyue was left to take care of the house, Su Yun and Li Kun went to the palace, and Jia Lan followed Mr. next door to learn practical learning.

A group of girls and maids chattered and laughed, attracting Biyue to come out to watch, ask the reason, and be amazed in their hearts, and hurriedly led Baoqin to the chicken coop.

Biyue pointed to a nest of hens and said: "Miss Qin came just in time, this old hen is the most protective of eggs, every time you take an egg, it will always be pecked a few bites, Miss Qin might as well talk to it?" ”

"Okay."

Baoqin should go down, go to the left of the chicken coop and squat down, look at the old hen for a long time, and then say, "Sister Biyue, take the trouble to find some grain." ”

Biyue agreed, and her own little maid sent the grain. Baoqin took a small handful and said to the old hen: "There is no rooster stepping on the eggs, you hatch it for nothing, why don't we change it, I exchange rice for your eggs?" ”

"Goo-goo-goo-"

"That's decided, no repentance."

Bao Qin sprinkled the millet in front of the hen and then reached out and took the egg from under the hen. One, two, and in a blink of an eye, I took out all four.

Everyone was amazed, and Daiyu even came over to pull the baoqin, and her heart was full of indescribable joy. Daiyu is a pity for flowers and grass, there is a nest of big swallows in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, every day she told the purple cuckoo and snow goose not to put down the gauze curtain, so as not to starve the little swallow if the big swallow can't get in.

Seeing that Baoqin was so close to parrots and hens, he secretly thought that Baoqin must have a very soft heart, otherwise he would not provoke birds and beasts to get close.

Xiangyun also came to hug Baoqin and said: "The little lady is a good means, I want to snatch it back and be a lady of the village." ”

As he was talking, he suddenly ran over from Daoxiang Village to a cat and a dog, and Bao Qin caught a glimpse of it, so he asked with a smile: "I heard that Sister-in-law Feng has a dog, could it be that one?" ”

The original noise quieted down for a moment, Biyue glanced at it, and said in a low voice: "That cat and dog were originally raised by Grandma Qin of Dongfu. Later, Grandma Qin was mourned, and Dongfu ...... Just in time to repair the garden, the cat and dog jumped to this side.

Now it's my grandmother who raises it, giving some leftovers every day, and letting the two of them fight the rest of the day. ”

Baoqin is new here, and she doesn't know about Ning Guofu, so she just nodded ignorantly. Xiangyun turned to quip: "Sister Qin, I heard that your brother went to Mei Hanlin's house today, and I can't say that something good is coming." ”

Bao Qin smiled brightly: "It's hard to say, but Sister Yun was hired early in the morning." ”

Xiangyun suddenly came over with his teeth and claws: "Okay, just said that you came to make fun of me, see if I don't give you a good one!" ”

After a while, everyone dispersed, and when Baoqin left, he heard a cat's meow in the distance, so he followed the sound and looked for it. All the way through the stone cave, the road, the Tubi Villa, but in the east corner of the door near the long corridor Qudong glimpsed a fat cat lazily squatting on the eaves.

Baoqin looked carefully, but saw that the top of the cat's head and tail were black, and she had never read the Sutra of the Cat, but she felt that the cat was born so chic, so she beckoned again and again: "Whose cat are you?" Can you see a cat and a dog playing around? ”

Dragged the gun and hung the seal lazily bowed his waist, looked at Baoqin a few times, meowed twice, and went straight to Baoqin's arms.

"Huh." Baoqin staggered, hurriedly hugged the fat cat, and immediately laughed: "You cat is cheeky, why do you come up and ask someone to hug you?" ”

The cat flicked its dark tail and said nothing. Bao Qin clutched the top of her head dotingly, and the cat immediately purred comfortably.

At this moment, a call came from the other side of the wall, and it was two women.

"General, where did you go?"

"The general is coming back soon, there are fish today."

Only then did Baoqin come to her senses, stared at the fat cat and said, "It turns out that your name is the general...... This name is so weird, and I don't know why. ”

……………………………………………………

Before the time, Li Weijian returned home early.

Fu Qiufang has not returned, only Hongyu is at home to deal with chores. Li Weijian rested in the study for a while, and then a servant came to report: "Master, Xue Zhen asks to see." ”

Li Weijian left the book and said: "This person has an old relationship with me, so he brought him straight to the study to see me." ”

The servant answered, and a moment later led a young man inside. After a long time, Xue Zhen's body has grown a lot, and when he glanced at Li Weijian, Xue Zhen hurriedly bowed and bowed: "I have seen Uncle Li in Xia Xue Zhen." ”

Li Weijian smiled and said: "After a long time, the style of Wendou is better than in the past, don't be polite, sit down." ”

When Xue Zhen heard this, he was immediately overjoyed!

The situation in Guangzhou that day was a big trouble for Xue Zhen, but he also knew that it was just a trivial matter for Uncle Li.

When Xue Zhen came, he even thought that Li Weijian had already forgotten about it, and this time he met him, maybe it was on the face of the Xue family.

Now he shouted his words directly, which shows that Uncle Li has never forgotten him, which saves a lot of trouble.

Xue Zhen hurriedly smiled and arched his hand: "I don't want my uncle to remember that I was here, it was not my uncle's mistake that day, and I can't say that I have to spend many days in Guangzhou." ”

Li Weijian waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down: "Some small things, Wendou doesn't have to keep them in mind." You're here to Jingshi, but do you have something to do? ”

Xue Zhen sat down next to half of his buttocks, and when he heard this, he bowed and said: "Back to Uncle, when I came to Beijing this time, I was afraid that my mother's health was not very good, for fear of delaying my little sister's marriage." ”

"Oh?"

"Uncle didn't know that my father walked the world in his early years, and he once helped people to rush to the exam, but he didn't want to be the third place in the second high school. He was grateful for his father's kindness, and the family had a new little sister, so he agreed with his father about the baby. Now that the little sister is in her clothes, her mother is worried that she has dragged down the little sister's marriage, so this is ......"

"I see."

"This is one of them."

Li Weijian was happy: "So there is a second one? ”

Xue Zhen said solemnly: "In the next time, I would like to worship under the uncle's door, and I would like to attach the uncle's tail." ”

Li Weijian suddenly burst out laughing. Although Xue Zhen in front of him is not very old, he is calm and knows how to advance and retreat, and he knows that he is a very strong person by looking at his expression. Now that Li Weijian is spreading everywhere, it is when there is a shortage of manpower, and even the brothers of the Nading family are in charge of their own errands, this Xue Zhen doesn't know what to do, but he only needs to cultivate a little, but he is afraid that at least it is another Jia Yun.

After laughing, Li Weijian asked knowingly: "This is strange, there is no big family in the middle and high schools of the Beijing Division, why does Wen Dou want to vote under my door?" ”

Xue Zhen said: "Uncle founded the cement business to benefit the people in Jiangnan. Especially the fathers and elders of Kunshan, they all miss the kindness of their uncles; Moreover, the uncle's ability to create things is unsurpassed, and he has been doing business with his father since he was a child, and he knows a little about the scenery of various places. If it is used by the uncle, I think there must be one or two strengths for the uncle to fancy. ”

"Okay." Li Weijian bowed his head again and again: "Since Wen Dou said this, I don't say anything. You deal with the affairs of the family first, and then come to my house after you dispose of it, I plan to place Wendou in the military academy first, and then place it after training for a year or two, depending on the situation. ”

Xue Zhen hurriedly responded. He knew in his heart that since Li Weijian said this, although he never mentioned any errands, he expected to have an official body. is a miscellaneous officer who does not enter the stream, and after a year or two of careful efforts, there is always an opportunity to seek promotion.

Because it was a long time to the end, he said: "Uncle's kindness is like reconstruction, in the future, if the uncle has something to order, if there is prevarication in the future, although let Thunder-"

"Huh?" Li Weijian said with a smile: "I believe in Wendou, why swear by swearing?" ”

Xue Zhen sat down again, Li Weijian asked about the situation in Jiangnan again, and Xue Zhen answered everything one by one.

Jiangnan is a prosperous place, because of the cement business, the flood is much less, the weaving yards are dotted everywhere, from Songjiang all the way to Suzhou, in order to catch up with the period of sea trade, there are often weaving yards to pick kerosene lamps day and night to rush to work, go to Suzhou after the moon and see the stars, for a time to attract strange talk.

Because of the pot camel machine, a lot of labor has been saved, and all kinds of weaving materials are cheaper than in previous years. Rao is like this, the gentry complained endlessly, and on the other hand, they stepped up to order pot camel machines from the Beijing Division, and the weaving yards were opened one after another.

said yes, then Xue Zhen said again: "It's just that now the weavers have a lot of complaints. Because of the pot camel machine, now as long as there are good hands in the weaving yards, the poor craftsmanship will have no livelihood. I heard that there was a disturbance in Songjiang in March, and then it was suppressed by the government. I am worried that in the long run, it will lead to changes in Jiangnan. ”

Li Weijian smiled and bowed his head, secretly wondering in his heart, where is this? Moreover, now that we have entered the industrial age, how can the small people rebel against the firearms of the Dashun official army?

It just so happens that the people outside the Guandong are sparsely populated, and it is a big deal to push the people from all over the country to break into the Kanto in the future. If you can't live in Kanto in the future, won't you just go south to expand the land?

Li Weijian was satisfied, and then said: "Your sister's marriage to Mei Hanlin's son, do you want me to send a post to say hello?" ”

Xue Zhen hurriedly said: "It's good to deal with this matter next, don't take action from Uncle Lao." ”

Xue Zhen secretly thought in his heart, if Li Weijian came forward, I was afraid that this marriage would be completed, and how would he send his little sister to Jinglingbo Mansion at that time?

Li Weijian didn't think much about it, and said a few words to him, and then served tea to the guests.

Out of the Lingbo Mansion, Xue Zhen secretly pondered. Today, when I visited Mei's house, the Mei family was quite polite, but they never mentioned the marriage contract. He was a newcomer, and it was not good to tear his face with him on the spot. If you go back later, if the Mei family really regrets it, it will just take advantage of this to make this matter bigger.

One fell on the face of the Mei family, which can be regarded as fighting for the second room; The second sister's reputation was damaged, and she happened to be sent to Jinglingbo's mansion.

After thinking about it, he realized that there was nothing missing, and when he came back to his senses, he saw a burly military attache entering the Rongguo Mansion from the corner gate. Xue Zhen wondered in his heart, and when he entered the door, he asked Yu Liu, the disciple: "Sixth brother, that person just looked at him, but is he a child of the Jia family?" ”

Yu Liu pouted and said: "This person's surname is Sun, and he has an old relationship with the eldest master, and this time he came to find the eldest master." Tsk, I'm afraid I'll be disappointed again this time. ”

Xue Zhen was about to ask, but Yu Liu was silent.

……………………………………………………

But he said that he would send Xue Zhen away, Li Weijian had no other chores, and simply got up and returned to the inner house. When I got to the main room, I saw only Hongyu sending the maid and the mother-in-law to clean up the yard.

Because it was, he asked: "What about Qingwen and Xiangling?" ”

Hongyu said: "I didn't look good this morning, so the general ran out." I thought I would come back at noon, but now I can't see it. Qingwen, Xiangling, and Xiuying were in a hurry, and they brought the maids to look for them all over the garden. ”

Li Weijian frowned and said, "Didn't you just find a female cat for the general in the spring?" ”

Hongyu couldn't help but say: "Besides, the two cats were very close at the beginning, and the general didn't bark at night." But somehow, as soon as the summer came, the general became angry, and if he had nothing to do, he would fight the cat. The cat couldn't stand it and ran away a few days ago. ”

Li Weijian said happily: "This general is not a son of man." ”

Thinking about it left and right, Li Weijian left the West Road Garden and went to Huifang Garden. Entering from the left corner door of Dengxian Pavilion, turning around the Angsana Tower, I saw Qingwen and others shouting 'General' near the left of Ning Xixuan.

When Li Weijian got closer, he suddenly heard a crisp female voice behind the wall: "The general you are looking for, but the top of the head and tail are black?" ”

Xiangling liked the general the most, and hurriedly responded when she heard the words: "Exactly, I was lost, and I went to the next door." The girl brought the cat. ”

The female voice said, "If this fat cat doesn't leave, why don't you pick it up with my sister?" ”

Xiangling often went to the Grand View Garden to look for Daiyu, and when she heard the words, she agreed: "Okay, the tired girl will wait a while." ”

Smiling and frugal with Li Weijian, Xiangling lifted her skirt, crossed the wooden bridge, said a word to the mother-in-law guarding the door, and then entered the Grand View Garden.

After a while, Xiangling returned with the general in her arms, and saw that Li Weijian and Qingwen were measuring the fish swimming in the water, Xiangling said: "Fourth master, guess who I just saw?" ”

Li Weijian thought for a while, and then said, "Could it be Miss Baoqin?" ”

Xiangling was surprised: "How does the fourth master know?" ”

"Heh, I haven't heard that voice before, recently only the girl from the second room of the Xue family came to the garden, who else could there be besides her?"

Xiangling smiled and said, "I just met Miss Baoqin, and I know what it means to be stunning." God, I don't know how much essence Lingxiu gathered to give birth to such a girl. ”

Stunning? Xue Baoqin?

Li Weijian blinked, remembering the appearance of Baoqin in the play, and felt ridiculous. Suddenly, I remembered that this is not a play!

Baochai is seven points similar to the play, but Daiyu is only three points similar. The remaining two girls, Tanchun, Xichun, etc., are all far from the play.

Thinking about it like this...... Hey, could it be that Xue Xiaomei is really stunning?

As the saying goes, 'full of warmth and lust', Li Weijian has had a smooth journey, and now his career is slowly spreading, and everything is developing towards the situation he wants. And now at such an age, he is already a second-class uncle, so it is really better to delay than to hurry.

Because he returned from Qinghai, he couldn't help but indulge in lust. Fu Qiufang Xu looked at his stature and said that he was sixteen, but he was afraid that he was twenty, so he did not say anything to persuade him.

As soon as he heard that Xue Xiaomei was the best in the world and had a good appearance, Li Weijian couldn't help but think about it.

Despite this, he was not anxious in his heart, but only looked at Xiangling and said: "It's rare that a girl has entered your eyes, so you might as well have more contact with Miss Qin in the future." ”

Xiangling bowed her head and said, "No need for the fourth master to say, I will also go to find the piano girl." ”

There was nothing to do on this day, and the next day, Xiangling really went to the Grand View Garden. I went to find Daiyu first, Daiyu was very fond of Xiangling's disciple, and said with a smile: "It's hard to say that I'm good at poetry now, the new sister Qin seems to be able to write poetry easily, and it's natural." ”

Where is Xiangling willing to believe: "Master, don't coax me." ”

"Which one coaxed you? If you don't believe it, look at these four songs. ”

Daiyu immediately pushed what Xue Baoqin did yesterday to Xiangling, and Xiangling only felt that her lips and teeth were fragrant, and her talent between the lines made her envious.

Daiyu saw the situation and smiled: "How much have you learned?" If you have talent, after three or two years, even I can't compare to you. ”

Xiangling smiled and said, "This is a coaxing." But I am self-aware, no matter how I am, how can I compare with Master? ”

Daiyu said playfully: "Don't you hear that the blue is better than the blue?" ”

After laughing for a while, Xiangling saw Baoqin's ability to 'attract bees and butterflies' and 'control cranes and tigers', and was immediately surprised. When he returned to Jinglingbo Mansion in the next morning, it coincided with Li Weijian's return, so he chattered around Li Weijian for a long time.

"Fourth master, Miss Qin's talent is even admired by Miss Lin."

"Hmm."

"Fourth master, Miss Qin also has miraculous skills, not limited to cats and dogs, but all birds and beasts, beckoning, and as if they can understand Miss Qin's words. It's really Xuanqi! ”

"Uh-huh."

Xiangling looked at Li Weijian's expression, and saw that he was just staring at the book, so he smiled and said: "It's also strange, such a strange woman, the fourth master doesn't want to take a look?" ”

Li Weijian dropped the book that had not been opened for a long time and said: "You are weird, where is there anyone who encouraged me to go and see the boudoir woman next to me?" ”

Xiangling said: "My aunt said that a man like the fourth master will attract girls to flock sooner or later." Rather than letting those who don't know the roots come to the house, I should look for some people who know the roots, so as not to jump in the house in the future. ”

Li Weijian suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and grabbed Xiangling for a long time, but he became more and more curious in his heart, so Xue Baoqin is really a fairy?

In the next few days, at first, it was just Xiangling's daily home chattering in Li Weijian's ear, and then there was another Qingwen, who only saw the Baoqin once, and was amazed when he came back.

Rao is Li Weijian's temperament, and he can't hold back his curiosity at this time, and after listening to Qingwen's words, he got up and walked out.

Qingwen blinked, and hurriedly asked, "Where is the fourth master?" ”

Li Weijian didn't reply: "Seeing the sky whispering in my ear, I want to go and see, is that Baoqin really a fairy?" ”

Seeing him walking away, Qingwen and Xiangling were speechless. After a long time, Xiangling smiled and said: "Look, the fourth master will never forget it when he turns around." ”

However, it was said that Li Weijian entered the Grand View Garden all the way from the corner gate, turned the Jade Emperor Temple with his hand, and saw a woman in front of the Deqin Fang Pavilion, and saw a woman fluttering in the distance, waving her sleeves, so every time she waved, she would sprinkle a silver bell-like laughter.

The woman was wearing a long jacket with a pink cross-collar with a silver chrysanthemum pattern on her upper body, and a long vermilion skirt on her lower body, with a graceful figure, Li Weijian couldn't help but slow down.

He thought to himself, is this Baoqin, or is it one of the twelve little plays?

As the woman waved her sleeves, the fish in the stream flocked to the south and north.

Kicking the stone while walking, making a slight noise, the woman suddenly looked back, and in Li Weijian's eyes, she saw 'pink makeup, jade and silver basin face, cicada bun and crow and Chu Xiuyun', what a stunning little girl!

The little girl was so beautiful that she was stunned by Li Weijian, and then a word came to her heart: I am three inches of snow on the eaves...... You're a stunner in the world!
