Lady Of Fortune Jiao Niang - Chapter 170
When he saw Chu Chengyun, Qi Yun felt that his left eyelid jumped.
Ordinary people say that the left eye jumps for money and the right eye jumps for disaster. Although there is no basis, it is difficult to say whether there is some mysterious truth in it.
It’s just that for Qi Yun at this moment, the left eyelid jumped just because he was scared.
Chu Chengyun would go out of the palace and come to Qi Ming’s courtyard. This is understandable. Anyway, Chu Chengyun values Qi Ming, and the emperor is easy-going. He used to call Qi Ming out to write poetry, but now he will come. Congratulations to Qi Saburo for being promoted is normal.
Even if this official was promoted by him, Qi Yun understood that Chu Chengyun divided himself into two people, which was completely different from public and private. Now it is just a private friendship, which naturally does not hinder the courtesy of the monarch and ministers.
What really scared Qi Yun was that Chu Chengyun would actually climb higher!
As an emperor, it is common sense not to climb high or face danger. Now Chu Chengyun is stepping on a stool to pick grapes with his own temperament. What happens if he falls?
Whether he can fall or not, Qi Yun has no intention to care, but if the emperor falls in the courtyard of his third brother, the sin will be serious.
Qi Yun almost subconsciously faced Liusi on the side and said, “Go, hold on to some chairs, don’t… don’t let this young man fall.”
Liu Si hurriedly responded and ran over to help.
Chu Chengyun had already picked a bunch of grapes. Seeing Liusi coming, he helped Liusi down to the ground, with a smile on his face: “Erlang don’t have to worry so much, am I not good?”
However, Qi Yun had a straight face, a serious expression, and said, “The son is noble and he is not more than ordinary people. It is better to be cautious.”
Ye Jiao rarely heard Qi Yun’s eight-hundred words, which made her look at Chu Chengyun with some curiosity. She saw that Chu Chengyun’s face was a little helpless, but she still said: “I know, Erlang, you are also with you. As before, Zhilan Yushu, with a good temperament, is just a bit rigid.”
Qi Yun looked at him and said, “For the people of the world.”
When Chu Chengyun heard the words, he felt that Qi Yun was really admonishing himself, so he immediately put the grapes aside, corrected his expression, and said to Qi Yun, “Mr. Talent.”
Then the two exchanged salutes, especially a gentleman. Ye Pingrong who was watching was very pleased, thinking that if Chu Chengyun could be a little more stable in the future, he would also save himself from fear.
But when they were speaking, Tiezi lowered his eyes first, trying to hide the helplessness in his eyes.
I’m afraid it’s in this yard, and Tiezi knows that my second young master is not for the world at all, but I’m just afraid that the person sitting on the dragon chair will fall here, and the third young master will be implicated…
But the second young master’s greatest ability is to hide his selfishness well, and the truths expressed are irrefutable.
Tie Zi glanced at Chu Chengyun, and felt that this person’s expression was exactly the same as when he gave money to his second young master’s caravan.
Such a kind and good emperor is really rare.
But soon they stopped mentioning the matter, and instead asked people to put the bamboo tables and chairs under the grape trellis.
Liu Si brought the washed grapes up and put them on the table, with a silver pick for picking grape seeds next to them.
Qi Yun and Ye Pingrong saw the ceremony. Without seeing Qi Ming, they asked, “Brother, where is Saburo?”
Ye Pingrong lowered his voice: “He chilled the wine in the well in the backyard and said he wanted to take it and drink it together.”
Qi Yun couldn’t help but raised his eyebrows. He didn’t expect that Qi Ming could already drink alcohol. It was clear that his little brother was still drunk by smelling alcohol before, but now he has become more prosperous in his career.
After all, this is Qi Ming’s courtyard. Whether it is the distinguished status of Chu Chengyun or Qi Yun, who is the elder brother, there is no one to urge him, just want to wait.
After sitting down, Ye Jiao cautiously moved towards Qi Yun, avoiding the scattered sunlight.
It’s midsummer now, the sun outside is very harsh, and the shadow of the grape trellis casts a shade, but the past wind still looks a little dry.
Qi Yun naturally turned sideways to let her lean on him, while Ye Jiao reached out and clasped Qi Yun’s hand.
Although Qi Yun’s hands and feet are not as cold as in previous years, the slightly lower body temperature than ordinary people still makes Ye Jiao more comfortable.
Qi Erlang asked in a low voice, “Is the Jiao Niang hot?”
Ye Jiao nodded honestly and looked at him blankly.
Qi Yun said to Tiezi: “Go and take down the box I brought.”
Tiezi responded and turned to go out and asked someone to carry it together. After moving in, Tiezi opened it in front of a few people and saw that there was a Bingjian inside.
This Bingjian is not affordable for ordinary people. It is naturally available in Chu Chengyun’s palace, but it is not easy to see in officials’ homes. It is mostly used by wealthy families with some family background.
Qi Yun didn’t hide it, and said directly: “This is the ice book I got before. The caravan brought back seven. I stayed at my parents’ house with two. I use one myself, one for my third brother, and one for the children. One.”
Chu Chengyun had the final say, “Are there two more?”
Qi Yun originally wanted to sell the remaining two, but now that he met Chu Chengyun, he changed his mind and said calmly: “Naturally it is for the son.” Seeing Chu Chengyun’s surprise, Qi Yun’s voice was flat. “The son paid, and I worked hard, and the caravan would grow. This is what the son deserves. Regardless of whether the son is rich or not, I will give it to you. As for how to deal with it, it is not something I have to consider. ”
In one sentence, Chu Chengyun’s doubts were dispelled.
Even if he is kind in his heart, but he is in his place, he has to do something. Others will give himself something for no reason, and no one will think his heart is right.
Qi Yun’s righteous words seem to have no selfishness at all, and his image in Chu Chengyun’s heart is too selfless, everywhere is family, country and the world, Chu Chengyun said in a convenient way: “What Erlang said is,” Then he glanced at Qi Yun and sighed, “If you can be an official, it will be fine.”
Qi Yun showed the first smile of the day, and said: “As long as you have the world in mind, no matter what you do is the same, in a few days, the caravan will come back, and you shouldn’t let the son down.”
Chu Chengyun remembered the fact that he had asked the caravan to record the map along the way. Although he had only gone out twice, he was able to fill in many blank places.
He is not a person who likes to fight, but knowing himself and knowing the enemy can be safe and long. These are naturally extremely precious.
With an expression of excitement on his face, Chu Chengyun talked to Qi Yun about the things the caravan had to prepare. Qi Yun took the opportunity to ask for a lot of money from Chu Chengyun, and Chu Chengyun agreed.
No matter whether Chu Chengyun could see Qi Yun’s mind or not, he would agree, because the benefits that the caravan could bring were far greater than the things they paid.
But Ye Jiao didn’t pay much attention to these things, Qi Yun was involved in business matters, and Little Ginseng didn’t worry about it.
At this moment, the little ginseng was looking at Tiezi to move the ice cube out. Ye Jiao looked at this small piece of ice. She hesitated and said: “Knock one piece down and put the rest back.”
Tie Zi was stunned, and said softly, “Second Young Master, I mean to use this ice fan when I look at Second Young Master.”
Ye Jiao naturally understood what he meant. Because Qi Er didn’t lack money and Ye Jiao was afraid of the heat, Qi had always been extravagant with ice.
Others are only willing to use ice cubes to make ice cream. Small pieces are used, but Qi’s family uses a large piece of it and puts it in the house so that people can fan it by the side to reduce the cool breeze in the house. heat.
The ice gold in summer is very expensive, and the one who is willing to use it is like Qi Erlang who doesn’t take money as money.
This time Qi Yun brought Bingjian with him, just thinking about using it for Ye Jiao first.
But the little ginseng remembered what Qi Yun said just now. He said that he would give Saburo a Bingjian, so she naturally thought it was for Qi Ming.
Ye Jiao didn’t know if what Qi Yun said was true or false, as long as Qi Yun said it, she would listen to the truth.
The object given to the third brother is the heart of the family. Everything is cheap in this world, only the heart is the most expensive. The little ginseng is naturally unwilling to spoil it, so he said: “Knock a piece and let someone make ice cream, then knock a piece of water. Let’s put the melons and fruits back here.”
Seeing that Qi Yun had no objection, Tiezi replied and asked people to follow Ye Jiao’s words.
Qi Yun listened to the side, understanding Ye Jiao’s thoughts in his heart, thought for a while, didn’t say anything, just reached out and squeezed the fingertips of his wife, the corners of her mouth slightly tilted.
His Jiao Niang always remembered him, just as Qi Yun kept Ye Jiao on the cusp of her heart all the time.
If you have a wife like this, what can your husband do?
Chu Chengyun didn’t notice the warmth between Qi Er and his wife. He was full of heart at this moment about waiting for the caravan to come back and draw the map completely.
Ye Pingrong, on the other hand, looked at his younger sister-in-law and felt that as long as his younger sister and Qi Yun were in one place, he became a world, and there was sweetness everywhere, even if they had never talked to each other, but they did not carry them all the time. Affection.
But immediately Ye Pingrong thought of Hua Ning, his expression softened, and he wondered what Hua Ning was doing right now?
When Qi Ming came back, the grapes that Chu Chengyun had picked had been eaten clean.
Fortunately, Chu Chengyun still remembered his virtuous brother and left two for him.
The seedlings of this grape trellis were sent by Shi Shi, and the best varieties in the orchard were selected, and the grapes produced are naturally sweet as honey.
When Qi Ming came out of the wine, Qi Yun asked Ye Jiao to get ice cream for Ye Jiao, but did not let her dip the wine, while Qi Yun’s eyes looked at the grapes on the table and the wine in the glass. The look was safe, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.
The dishes on the table were sent by Guan Shi Qin. Although Qi Ming’s small kitchen can cook, but today’s reception is Chu Chengyun. Naturally, Qi Yun would not let the small kitchen delay time, so he sent people directly to the restaurant. Order a table of noodles.
Manager Qin didn’t ask much, but he knew that Qi Yun was solemn, so he naturally didn’t dare to slacken his efforts, letting his cook use all his housekeeping skills.
But these dishes are what Ye Jiao and Ye Pingrong happily eat. The two brothers of the Qi family and Chu Chengyun didn’t move their chopsticks too much.
After two glasses of wine, Qi Ming was the first to get down.
Obviously, Qi Saburo hadn’t understood the beauty of the contents of this cup, but he couldn’t hold it after drinking a little, his face was red, and he fell asleep on the table.
Qi Yun obviously didn’t expect that he really couldn’t drink. After a moment of stunnedness, he said to Liusi: “Go and cook the sober soup, and bring him some food. I must let him go to sleep after eating.”
Liusi responded, and hurriedly carried his second young master into the house.
However, Qi Yun found that Chu Chengyun did not follow, instead sitting there, holding chopsticks, and staring at him with a smile.
This made Qi Erlang feel strange, but did not ask directly, but still calmly peeled the shrimp shells to Ye Jiao, dipped it with the sauce, and put it in Ye Jiao’s bowl.
Chu Chengyun was out of Miyamoto this time because he had something to talk to Qi Yun. Now that he has the opportunity, he no longer waits, and coughs lightly: “Erlang, I have something to discuss with you alone.”
As soon as these words came out, Ye Pingrong was about to get up, and wanted to drag his little sister away.
Ye Jiao was a little dazed, there was still shrimp on the chopsticks.
Qi Yun stood up and said, “It just so happens that I also have something I want to talk to the son. Why don’t you and I go to the study?”
Chu Chengyun thought for a while, and felt that this matter really had to be said in private, so he nodded and the two went to Qi Ming’s study together.
Seeing this, Ye Pingrong went back and let go of Ye Jiao’s hand. Seeing his little girl’s face was puzzled, he hurriedly calmed down and said: “Jiao Niang, you continue to eat, don’t worry about them.”
Ye Jiao put his chopsticks away, looked at the direction of the study with some worry, then looked at Ye Pingrong and asked, “Brother, what are they going to say?”
Ye Pingrong followed Chu Chengyun for years and years, and naturally knew the reason, but Chu Chengyun had no name to tell others. Ye Pingrong could only pretend to be ignorant from start to finish. Now it is Ye Jiao who asks him, and Ye Dalang has always treated his younger sister. If they are different, they can only vaguely say: “Marriage matter.”
These words made Ye Jiao blink, and then suddenly said, “The father-in-law will not accept a concubine.”
Seeing her misunderstanding, Ye Pingrong was a little bit dumbfounded: “Don’t worry, Jiao Niang, no one will let her brother-in-law be a concubine, it’s… it’s the marriage of Master Qi.”
Only Qi Ming can be called an adult in the Qi family.
Ye Jiao understood that it was Chu Chengyun who wanted to find a wife for her Saburo.
There was a smile on her face, and she wanted to know whose daughter Saburo would marry, but Xiao Renshen saw Ye Pingrong’s troubles, so he stood up for a while and didn’t ask any questions. Instead, she stuffed the shrimp into her mouth and ate happily. .
When he went back, Ye Jiao sat in the carriage and held Qi Yun around, and then asked, “Msang Gong, who is the emperor going to tell Saburo?”
Qi Yun has always known Ye Jiao everything without saying anything, and immediately said: “The fifth girl of the Meng family, she gave Saburo Yuhuachai before.”
The Meng family…
Ye Jiao blinked: “But with Hui Niang’s family?”
Qi Yun’s eyelids jumped again, and he nodded slowly: “Yes, it’s the queen’s sister.”
It was slander in my heart, it is really strange that my third brother should become the emperor’s brother-in-law.
Before Chu Chengyun called Qi Yun away, Qi Erlang thought that Chu Chengyun was going to order the mandarin ducks, who would have thought that he was thinking of adult beauty.
After all, there is a huge difference between the families, if Chu Chengyun didn’t mention it personally this time, Qi Yun would never believe it.
It’s just that Chu Chengyun also said clearly: “If Saburo and the Meng family can achieve their good deeds, they will rely more on them in the future. What I ask him to do will be more secure, and I am also considering Saburo.”
Qi Yun closed his eyes slightly, realizing that Qi Ming was already tied to Chu Chengyun and couldn’t walk away.
Chu Chengyun made it clear that he wanted to push his policy, and there were not many capable officials and officials he could use, Shi Tianrui was one, and Qi Ming was behind.
He told Qi Ming about the Meng family’s marriage, just to find a way out for Qi Ming.
This retreat is really a big family, and people like the Qi family can’t dream of it, but the better the retreat, the more dangerous Qi Ming’s road ahead.
I originally thought it was a good thing for my third brother to have a good relationship with the emperor, but looking at it now, it’s not all.
Ye Jiao didn’t think so much, but said with a smile: “Then it’s time to tell my mother about this matter. The last time my mother said in her letter, the door of our house was almost broken by the matchmaker. Now that there are people If you want to be a matchmaker for Saburo, it is better not to accept it at home.”
As soon as he said this, Qi Yun immediately opened his eyes.
If the father and mother agree to the person next to him, here Qi Ming will marry another family. When the time comes, it will be troublesome to come first to be loyal and filial.
When he knew about Yuhua before, he thought about sending a letter to his parents, but then forgot to clean it up. If it weren’t for Ye Jiao’s reminder now, Qi Yun would still not remember it.
Qi Yun immediately turned his head and kissed Ye Jiao’s mouth. Although Ye Jiao didn’t quite understand what he was thinking, she still wrapped the man’s neck with a smile and leaned in to kiss him.
After returning home, Qi Yun asked Ye Jiao to go to the yard and wait for herself. After Ye Jiao left, Qi Yun said with a solemn expression, “Tiezi, bring paper and pen, I want to write to home. ”
Tiezi asked: “But do you want to pass it by a letter?”
“No, flying pigeons pass the book, the sooner the better.”
Within two days, the pigeon fell to Qi’s house, and the letter on the pigeon’s leg was sent to Granny Liu.
Most of the letters sent by pigeons were extremely important, so Mrs. Liu hurriedly went to the Liu family.
At this time, the Liu family was chanting Buddhist scriptures in the small Buddhist hall, but this time he was not seeking health but peace.
In the past, Liu clan knelt in small ancestral halls, mostly because Qi Yun’s body was good and bad, and he had to go to Guimenguan every moment. Liu clan could only feel at ease by chanting.
Now Qi Yun’s body has improved a lot. The husband and wife are happy, and the children are complete. The life is smooth, and the Liu family will ask for something else.
Seeing Mrs. Liu coming in, the Liu family stopped turning the hand of the Buddhist beads, turned to look at her, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and said warmly: “What, but Yue’er wakes up?”
This month is the daughter of Fang’s daughter born a few days ago. She was born at night, and when the bright moon was clear that night, she gave birth to Yue’er.
Although this child was not very old when he was born, he was very strong. I think Fang was well raised when he was pregnant, and even with the child in his womb, he was healthy. The little girl was very loud when she cried, across the courtyard gate. I can hear that, but the Liu family feels that Yue’er is so healthy, and the baby is not good. No matter if it is usually after eating or sleeping, the first thing Liu’s thing is to ask her little granddaughter.
Granny Liu walked over and helped Liu’s stand up, and said, “Ms. Yue, Miss Yue hasn’t woken up yet, but the second young master sent a letter and sent it with a pigeon. I was afraid of delaying things. This interrupted the lady’s recitation. through.”
Liu immediately straightened his expression and reached out and took the letter paper from Mrs. Liu.
Because the pigeon has thin legs, the bamboo tube that can be sent is not large, and the paper inside is mostly slender strips rolled into a ball, and there are not many words that can be written.
This time, Qi Yun’s news is concise.
‘Saburo has his own marriage, and he hopes his parents will make it happen. ’
Although there are not many words, the Liu family can understand the meaning.
She immediately said to Mrs. Liu: “Go, please come over, Master.”
Father Qi was originally on Zhuangzi. He heard that Liu was looking for him. He came back without saying a word. When he got home, it was already night. He saw sweat on his head and panted when he spoke: “Madam, it happened. What’s the matter?”
Liu clan asked him to come and sit down, and handed the note to Father Qi.
Father Qi took a look, raised his head to look at the Liu family, and said, “What is Shang Datian?”
Liu took the veil and wiped the sweat on him. Hearing the words, he knew that his father-in-law was stunned, and said patiently: “That is to say, the emperor will help us determine the marriage of Saburo, so we don’t need to worry about it.”
The look on Father Qi’s face became more and more strange: “The emperor takes care of everything. The important matters of marriage are the orders of the parents. The words of the matchmaker…”
“Master Tiandi, this is the good fortune of our son, are you still not happy?” Liu clan glared at him, and after seeing Father Qi shut up honestly, Liu clan continued, “Erlang never speaks nonsense, since He said that this matter is important, and that is important. We should listen to him.”
Father Qi hesitated for a while before he said, “I know that Lord Zhou told me about this. I want to allocate his daughter to our son. I can’t shirk it.”
If it was before, Liu would not reject Zhizhou’s kindness, but now, she is very decisive: “As long as you don’t nod, you must push it. Otherwise, something really happens and it will be difficult for Master Zhizhou to do it. It’s better to not afford it from the beginning.”
Father Qi opened his mouth and didn’t speak, but there was still some worry between his eyebrows.
Liu’s patted his hand and said, “This is not an offense. If you agree, you will offend him. Besides, what is more important than a son?”
Although Qi’s father was of average talent, he was the most important wife and child, and he was very persuasive, so he nodded and personally wrote a letter for the pigeon to bring Qi Yun back.
When Qi Erlang received the letter, he was frightened for a while.
If you really let your parents say a kiss to Saburo at home, there is another Meng Wu **** this end, and then her own Saburo is caught in the middle, it is not a person inside and outside, maybe it will be an obstacle to the official body.
Fortunately, things dissipated before they even came out, which is a happy event.
On this day, Qi Yun wrote a day’s “Safety not forgetting danger, prosperity must worry about decline” in order to reflect on himself. That night, people boiled eggs to eat, but the polite Jiro’s approach made Ye Jiaohui wrong. Little Ginseng He dragged Qi Yun to use the bath tub together, and then tossed from the bath tub to the outside, until the third day before falling asleep.
After another month, the heat dissipated a little, and Ye Jiao let someone ride a swing in the yard next to the cool house.
When Shi came here, he happened to see the pillars people were setting up swings, Shi Shi hurriedly walked around, and when he entered the cold room and saw Ye Jiao, he couldn’t help but ask, “Why do you think of swinging?”
Ye Jiao was touching Ruyi’s little belly. Hearing the words, she turned her head and smiled at Shi Shi: “It’s not me, it’s Xu Bao who saw Huaning’s swing last time when he went to my brother’s place. Yes, it used to be hot and it was too hot, but now it’s a little bit cooler, so let someone come out to play with Xu Bao.”
Shi Shi walked up to Ye Jiao and sat down, and asked him to put the food box he had brought on the table, as if there was something to say, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed it back and said, “Xu Bao loves to have fun. It’s a good thing. Siao’s eyes are tired from staring at the book every day.” Then Shi looked at Ruyi, who was giggling, and reached out to say hello to her, “Ruyi, do you want auntie?”
Ruyi smiled and hugged Ye Jiao’s hand, her eyes narrowed. When she heard Shi’s words, she looked over, recognized the person and said clearly: “Aunt Xiu, Ruyi missed you.”
It’s just that although she was thinking about it, she held Ye Jiao tightly with her hands, obviously not wanting to leave her mother.
Shi often comes, and naturally knows Ruyi’s temperament. Her mouth is always sweet and makes people happy, but her parents are always stuck in her heart.
Don’t look at Ning Bao looking cold and indifferent, but as long as he is familiar, anyone can hold it.
Ruyi is different. As long as her mother is there, she will not let others hold her, she will always look aggrieved and feel distressed.
Shi knew that the little girl had an idea in her heart, but she was not angry. Instead, she smiled and said, “It’s good to be like this.”
Ye Jiao couldn’t help being curious: “Where is it good?”
Shi Shi looked at her with a smile: “Be more with you, and look back and be as good-natured as Jiao Niang. That’s fine.”
Ye Jiao didn’t hear that she was teasing herself, but instead nodded, kissed Ruyi, and said proudly, “My daughter is naturally like me.”
Shi Shi nodded repeatedly and leaned in to kiss Ruyi, Xiao Ruyi let her kiss, and embarrassedly buried his face in Ye Jiao’s arms.
After a while, Ruyi yawned and fell asleep not long after.
Ye Jiao handed her to Mrs. Mo and hugged her to sleep. Then she looked at Shi Shi and asked: “Yingxiu, did you have something to tell me just now?”
Shi nodded, leaned over, and said softly: “I heard people say that the Privy Councilor has been reprimanded and will leave Beijing soon.”
… the Privy Council?
Ye Jiao felt that this official position was a bit familiar, and then she remembered that the girl from Lu Qi was from the Privy Councilor’s family, but that she and this were no longer alone, and she had changed two in the past few years.
It is really difficult to come to this official position, and the risk is quite high.
Then I listened to Shi’s words: “I listened to my sister-in-law’s tone. This successor has not been decided yet. Your Saburo is in the Privy Council. Recently, you have to be careful, I’m afraid there will be people coming from your house.”
Ye Jiao didn’t know anything about official affairs, so she just wrote it down and planned to talk to Qi Yun at night.
At this moment, Xiao Su hurriedly walked in and saw Shi was there. He hesitated and did not speak. Shi Shi could see something urgent, so he smiled and left.
When she left, Xiao Sucai said, “Second young lady, Master Stone was beaten in the college.”
The author has something to say: Qi Yun: Brother, grown up
Chu Chengyun: There should be a home too
Ye Jiao: Hui Niang must be happy
Liu Family: It’s so good, so good
Qi-Everyone knows about my relatives, but I don’t know-Ming: …? ? ?
