Lady Of Fortune Jiao Niang - Chapter 194
Ye Jiao’s ears were reddish, but the smile on her face couldn’t stop.
If it were normal times, they would have been together, touching their foreheads to say something personal.
However, as parents, Qi Yun and Ye Jiao were still very worried about Xu Bao’s feelings. They didn’t get together anymore, but moved a little apart, seeming to play with the snacks on the table seriously, but you break a piece. I can’t adjust the sweetness of the posture of feeding one piece.
Xu Bao was originally a clever child. “The Song of the Five Sons” said it was not long or short. He closed his eyes and read it silently twice before writing it down.
But when I opened my eyes, I saw my parents leaning together again, Xu Bao turned around obediently, and prepared to recite the article just now.
Seeing more of these things is not new. Xiao Xubao knows when to talk and when to be quiet.
But when he turned around, Ye Jiao saw it, and pushed her mate directly away, and then reached out and took Xu Bao up and hugged Xu Bao in his arms. He smiled and said: “Xu Bao is finished?”
Xu Bao smiled obediently, nodded and said, “It’s over.”
Qi Yun, who was pushed by his own wife, sat upright with a calm expression, coughed lightly, and looked at the elder son with a serious expression: “What do you mean, do you understand it?”
Xu Bao straightened his chest up immediately: “I got it.”
Normally in front of Ye Jiao, Xu Bao is always cute and cute, and he is never competitive.
But in front of Qi Yun, it is quite different. In Xu Bao’s eyes, his father is the most knowledgeable person in the world. He is more knowledgeable than his third uncle. Xu Bao’s dream is to be an official, be a high official and take charge. Daddy.
Even though Xu Bao had given up on the idea of studying Qi Yun for himself every day, his ideal of being a high official had never changed.
Then Xu Bao thought, his knowledge must be higher than that of his father anyway, so that he can become a high official.
So every time Qi Yun asked about his homework, Xu Bao would pay special attention.
Knowing Xu Bao’s ability, Qi Yun nodded, reached out his hand and touched the top of his son’s hair and said: “Really smart,” the voice paused, “Worthy of my son.”
This is obviously a praise of Xu Bao, but in fact he still praised himself in the end.
However, Ye Jiao was particularly supportive and said with a smile: “Naturally, the father is very tight.” Then she looked at her son, kissed the little guy on the forehead, and said, “Xu Bao is also gifted.”
Look at this head, if you are bigger than others, you should be smarter than others.
Xu Bao leaned against Ye Jiao’s arms with a smile, his big eyes turned sloppy, and said to Qi Yun: “Daddy, you are better than Mr. Feng.”
Hearing this, Qi Yun looked at Xu Baodao: “Being a disciple is not a fault of the teacher.”
Xu Bao shook his head, and said: “Mr. Feng is already very good, but Dad said it is better than anyone else. I will understand when you say it, Dad is naturally better.”
This compliment was sincere and sincere, Qi Yun no longer said anything, just accept it all.
Then I heard Xu Bao said: “If Daddy can be a husband, it will be fine.”
Qi Yun raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn’t expect his son to have this kind of thought, so he asked, “Why do you want me to be your husband?”
Xu Bao looked up at him, with a childish voice: “The book says, “Teachers are easy to meet, but people are hard to suffer.” If Daddy can be a teacher, teach and educate people, he will definitely be like Mr. Feng hoped. All over the world, Chunhui is everywhere.”
As soon as he said this, Qi Yun looked at his son in surprise, and Ye Jiao also looked down at Xu Bao.
In the heart of Little Ginseng, Xu Bao is still that soft and soft child. He always talks with double words, and his voice is milky and milky. Perhaps Xu Bao remembers early and speaks neatly. This makes Ye Jiao feel that he is now. He is no different from when he was two or three years old.
Even if Xu Bao recites a poem to himself just now and the famous piece blurted out, Ye Jiao still thinks he is still young.
But now when Xu Bao said this, Ye Jiao felt that her children had grown up a lot. Even if Ye Jiao didn’t know what was good about being a husband, after hearing Xu Bao’s words, she felt that being a teacher was a great thing. Good thing.
But soon, Xu Bao shook his head again, clutching Qi Yun’s fingers and said: “It’s still not there.”
Qi Yun, who was just shocked by his own child, couldn’t help but said, “Why, I don’t like it again?”
Xu Bao pursed his pink lips and muttered: “Daddy is busy, I don’t have time to read books. If I teach it to others, I will be more busy, Xu Bao don’t.”
As soon as these words came out, without the maturity just now, he was still the boyish little guy.
Qi Yun couldn’t help but smiled faintly, Ye Jiao also reached out and rubbed his son’s chubby face.
At this time, Xiao Su knocked on the door of the room and said, “Master, Mother Mo said, Young Master and the girl are awake.”
Ye Jiao looked at the time and thought it was time for dinner, so she wanted to take them in for dinner.
But Qi Yun first said: “Xu Bao, you go to have dinner with your younger siblings, okay?”
Xu Bao has always liked to pester Ye Jiao, but he listened very much to Qi Yun’s words. Without Qi Erlang saying anything, Xu Bao let go of Ye Jiao’s hand, stood up on the soft couch, and was held by Qi Yun. He stood on the ground, and then Xiao Pangdun bowed to his parents, then opened the door and took Xiao Su’s hand to leave.
When Ye Jiao saw that Qi Yun distracted Xu Bao, he knew that there was something he didn’t want Xu Bao to listen to, so he asked, “Msang Gong, do you have something to tell me?”
Qi Yun nodded, but didn’t speak immediately, but let someone set the meal first.
Because Ye Jiao is delicious, the Qi family’s small kitchen always cooks food in a different way, as long as you do it well, you can get rewards. Therefore, the cooks in the small kitchen work hard.
In addition to the dishes Ye Jiao had seen before, there was another dish that Ye Jiao had never seen before.
She took the chopsticks, did not try to clamp it, but turned to look at Qi Yun.
Seeing this, Qi Erlang picked up a bowl and gave Ye Jiaoshenggeng, and said slowly: “This sea cucumber is very fresh. I got some from the restaurant, so I sent some to the family.”
Speaking of ingredients, the villain has seen a lot, but she mostly stays in the mountains, and all the birds and beasts are walking on the ground. It is rare to see things in the sea, so curiosity is inevitable in her eyes.
Qi Yun continued: “Sea cucumbers are tasteless and difficult to cook, but the sea cucumbers are well-prepared and are very easy to eat. Choose small sea cucumbers, soak them to remove the mud, and then boil them in broth three times, then take chicken broth and meat. The soup is simmered until it is overripe, and finally simmered with mushrooms and fungus to make a soup, it is delicious, Jiao Niang try it.”
It was clearly just a pot of soup with a darker color. Ye Jiao didn’t have much thoughts of eating, but after Qi Yun said that, Ye Jiao had an appetite.
It seemed that every time he tasted something new, Qi Yun would tell Ye Jiao how to do it. Every time he said it carefully and attractively, Ye Jiao couldn’t help but put it in his mouth.
At this moment, she took the spoon and took a bite of the soup, and she felt that her mouth was full of fragrant, soft and crispy, like tendons, but more elastic than tendons.
Ye Jiao fell in love with just one bite.
Seeing her smile openly, Qi Yun also smiled, and said to Xiao Su: “Who made this soup?”
Xiao Su hurriedly replied: “It was made by the master of the restaurant.”
Qi Yun didn’t find it strange. After all, the dynasty didn’t attach much importance to ocean fishing. Sea cucumbers are rare and not easy to get. It’s normal for ordinary cooks to have never seen them before and can’t handle them. He didn’t say anything, just pipes. : “Send ingots to the restaurant, only for this dish.”
Although sea cucumbers are not common, each dish is a bit expensive.
But Xiaosu knew that this was a reward for the master, so he responded and hurried out to spread the word.
Ye Jiao finished a bowl and didn’t immediately serve the second bowl. Instead, she looked at Qi Yun and said, “What did you want to say before Xiang Gong? Let’s talk.”
Qi Yun picked up chopsticks and fresh bamboo shoots for her, and said, “That person came today and told me two things.”
Ye Jiao nodded, but did not speak, but waited for Qi Yun to speak.
I heard Qi Yun say: “The first thing is to ask when my parents will enter Beijing. The marriage between Meng’s girl and Saburo will begin to be handled.”
Ye Jiao has always kept this matter in mind. Because there are only two brothers in the Qi family in the capital, and the eldest brother and parents are not in front of him, the Liu family entrusts Saburo to Ye Jiao and asks her to have more snacks. Jiao also cares about Qi Ming. Marriage is an important matter in life, so naturally you have to think more about it.
After hearing what Qi Yun said, Ye Jiao nodded: “It’s almost the same. My mother told me before that the betrothal gift is ready. As long as the emperor grants the marriage, it will be sent to the capital immediately. However, mother In other words, we must first buy a house for Saburo.”
Qi Yun paused with the chopsticks in his hand, and then said softly: “This is the second thing. The emperor gave Saburo a mansion, and I want to return to Saburo later.”
Ye Jiao smiled at first when she heard that, thinking it was a good thing, but seeing that there was no smile on Qi Yun’s face, she was a little puzzled: “Don’t you think it’s good?”
Qi Yun didn’t lie to her, and said directly: “I can’t say whether it’s good or not, but I think this house is a bit hot and it’s not safe to hold.”
Chu Chengyun said that it was because Qi Ming had given him an idea, so that it was given to Qi Ming’s house.
But what was the idea, would it cause trouble to Qi Ming? Chu Chengyun didn’t say anything, and Qi Yun was not easy to ask, but he just felt that this house was not easy to live in.
Ye Jiao didn’t know so much inside information. She always said whatever she had in her heart. This time she was also open: “The emperor said that the emperor treats Saburo well, just like his brother to his younger brother. I think he will never treat Saburo. Push into the pit.”
Qi Yun thought about it, and felt that his wife’s words made sense.
Right now, Qi Ming has firmly stood behind Chu Chengyun, and he will definitely be tied together in the future, whether it is good or bad is not to be determined.
Taking a step back, Chu Chengyun is no longer what he used to be. He can protect Empress Meng cruelly, and he can naturally find a way to protect Qi Ming.
Wasn’t it just protecting Qiming by looking for the Xiao family to block in front?
Thinking of this, Qi Yun felt a lot more open-minded, and whispered softly: “Each has a future, and there is something to do with it.”
Ye Jiao was eating bamboo shoots intently. Hearing the words, he looked up at Qi Yun. If he wanted to ask something, he saw that Qi Yun handed her a quicksand bag again, so he couldn’t remember to ask, just smiled and ate. dinner.
When he finished eating, Qi Yun went to repair the book for the second elders of the Qi family and invited them to Beijing. Ye Jiao sat aside and fanned herself with a fan, then fanned Qi Yun, and got up to grind the ink for Qi Yun.
Ordinary people would find it annoying to grind with the grinding block, but Ye Jiao regards this as fun and does it very hard.
And Qi Yun also enjoyed the fragrance of red sleeves. Even though his wife is not as fragrant as written in the book, she has the sweetness of osmanthus and the scent of milk after drinking a bowl of milk. I feel comfortable.
This made Qi Yun, who was writing a letter, always look at his wife from time to time, but staggered his eyes when Ye Jiao looked over.
The man seems to have divided himself into two halves. One half is writing a serious family letter, with no omissions in the wording, while the other half is looking at the girl in front of him. A bunch of words describing beauties popped up in his head. I feel that nothing is better than her.
My wife is very good, and she can reach her with extraordinary rhetoric.
After Qi Yun finished writing the letter, he picked it up and blew it. After the writing on it was dry, he handed it to Ye Jiao: “Jiao Niang, help me see, what’s left is.”
Ye Jiao took it and was about to sit and take a look, but Qi Yun held Ye Jiao’s wrist with his backhand. He didn’t use any force, just held it empty, and seemed to be able to separate with a little bit of effort.
But the little ginseng turned down naturally, sat on Qi Yun’s lap, and found a comfortable position, leaning on the man’s chest, holding Qi Yun’s arm around her waist, let her It won’t slide down, and Ye Jiao’s eyes have been staring at Xin.
Obviously what he was doing was charming, but Ye Jiao didn’t mean anything on her face.
Qi Yun didn’t do much, just hug her and read the letter with her.
Ye Jiao looked at Qi Yun’s writing intently, and then muttered: “When can I write the characters as beautiful as Xiang Gong?”
When Qi Yun heard her mention it, he thought of Ye Jiao’s words that always lie in a ball on the ground. He couldn’t help but curl his mouth and said, “The Jiao Niang writes very well, don’t ask.”
Ye Jiao stared at him, her cheeks bulging slightly, “Xiangong lied to me, what’s the matter?” She knew it herself, and couldn’t get her own words.
Qi Yun replied calmly and calmly: “It’s easy to recognize, Jiao Niang’s words are unparalleled in the world, no one can write it like this.”
This was like exaggeration, Ye Jiao laughed first, but soon felt something was wrong.
Where does it mean that her writing is good? It’s obviously laughing at her!
Even Ye Jiao thought in her heart that she was not good at writing, but at this moment she straightened up and bit her mouth on the back of the man’s hand.
But she couldn’t bear to work hard, so she just wanted to nibble and let go.
Who knew that Qi Yun suddenly got up, causing Little Ginseng to subconsciously stretch out his arm and hug the man’s neck tightly.
On the other hand, Qi Yun hugged her sideways, and said indifferently: “Lady, is there any omission in the letter?”
Ye Jiao glanced at the letter paper that he hadn’t known when Qi Yun took away and put it on the table, and shook his head.
Qi Yun looked down at her, the corners of his mouth curled slightly: “Then don’t look at it anymore, the night is already late, why don’t we rest.”
Ye Jiao understood Qi Yun’s meaning, and had no objection at all. Instead, she hugged this person tighter and nodded with a smile.
Then Qi Yun hugged Ye Jiao into the inner room.
A few years ago, Qi Erlang would absolutely not be able to hold Ye Jiao. Even if Ye Jiao was a fat body and lighter than an ordinary woman, at that time, a cough might flash to Qi Yun’s waist. The squishy lantern was still fragile, not to mention it was holding people, and it couldn’t lie down even with a little effort.
Now it’s different. Qi Yun’s body is well-tuned, and Ye Jiao has raised him well. Even if he still needs to be careful all the time, it is not a problem to hug Ye Jiao.
Ye Jiao was worried at first, but looked at Qi Yun holding herself for a few steps and didn’t shake her, so she left him alone.
But after walking into the inner room, none of them saw a small wooden horse on the ground.
This is what Xu Bao played just now, and it was just placed on the ground. To say that this little wooden horse is not a small object, you can usually see it, but Ye Jiao is staring at Qi Yun, and Qi Yun is holding a person. Without seeing the feet, neither of them noticed.
Therefore, Qi Yun kicked the small wooden horse, and the next moment he was tripped and unconsciously stepped forward.
It was hard to hold on to it, but Ye Jiao in Qi Yun’s arms came out of the man’s arms.
Fortunately, there was a bed in front, and the mattress on it was soft enough, Ye Jiao didn’t feel any pain when he was “pushed” on top, but she was a little embarrassed.
But Ye Jiao forgot that she was still holding her mate’s neck tightly. As a result, Qi Erlang, who had finally managed to stand firm, was dragged onto the bed by Ye Jiao before he could get back to Ye Jiao.
One was lying down, the other lying on his stomach, and no one spoke when his eyes met.
Qi Yun read from Ye Jiao’s eyes the pity of “Miangong, you still have to raise more.” Qi Erlang wanted to vindicate himself, but the next moment he felt his waist tighten.
Then, the position was changed, Qi Jia Erlang, who had always been calm and self-sufficient, lay on the bed with a blank face, looked at Ye Jiao sitting on his waist, and asked: “Jiao Niang, why are you…I am not…”
Ye Jiao felt that she was tired of her husband just now, and only felt particularly distressed.
So she stretched out her hand to hold Qi Yun’s face, leaned down and kissed her, comfortingly said: “It’s fine, I know, take your time and don’t worry.”
Qi Yun:…
“Don’t move this time, as I am here, but you remember to rub my waist tomorrow.”
Qi Yun was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly thought of a picture, his ears were red.
Qi Erlang swallowed all his explanations by himself, just nodded and agreed.
Since it was a good thing, Qi Yun had no reason to refuse.
In the end, this night was very unforgettable. The only thing that puzzled Qi Erlang was why the energetic lady still rubbed his waist the next day…
My lady, is she really a fairy who picks up yang and replenishes yin?
A few days later, when the cicadas in the capital began to scream, Chu Chengyun’s decree to reward Qi Ming’s house was finally renovated.
This yard was originally a confiscated estate. Before, he lived as a fourth-rank official. He was demoted out of the capital when he was in charge of purging officials. The house rewarded him was also taken back by the royal family.
Although it was rewarded to Qi Saburo at this time, he still had to renovate if he wanted to live in.
Said it was repairing, in fact, the craftsmen sent were only responsible for the general correction of the house yard. They repainted the walls and columns, and looked at it as a brand new house, but the flowers and plants inside, tables, chairs and benches, as well as pots and pans, etc. All small objects must be rearranged.
On the day Qi Ming moved to live, Qi Yun and Ye Jiao also went, ready to help Qi Ming make arrangements.
Because moving was a mess, Ye Jiao didn’t bring the children, but brought the powerful young woman at home, and Ye Jiao directed people to arrange furniture in a house.
When the big pieces were finished, Ye Jiao didn’t care about the minutiae. Instead, he called Ren Yazi to come and choose the servant for Qi Ming to serve.
Originally, I had to pick some girls, but Qi Yun said that Qi Saburo didn’t pay much attention to his life. Before, Liu Si served close to him, and he won’t need a girl in the future.
“Let’s wait for Saburo to get married, so Meng Wu can choose her maid again.” Qi Yun said this lightly, but only he understood the meaning.
His family Saburo counted as sweet steamed buns. Before the fourth girl of Zhu could give up her face and slam herself at his door. Who knows if there will be people who want to make trouble in the future.
Qi Yun, who was almost touched into the study by a maid, felt that it was a good thing to be alert.
When the Mengwu girl is constantly staring, it is better to kill the possible disaster that endangers the relationship between the two.
Ye Jiao just chose a small servant, and found a few capable women from home to take care of the kitchen, which was considered to be worthy of placement.
Qi Ming followed Ye Jiao the whole time, and he was very cute.
Although he has a general idea of how to be an official, but he has no idea about housekeeping. His sister-in-law can come to help. Qi Ming is very grateful, and naturally he will not say a word, just as the little tail behind Ye Jiao. Ye Jiao said whatever he asked, very well-behaved.
When everything stops, they will have time to rest in the front hall.
As soon as Qi Yun sat down, he saw Qi Ming stand up, saluted him, and solemnly said: “Thank you, brother, for renting the yard to me before.”
As soon as he said this, Qi Yun looked at Tiezi subconsciously.
That yard was Qi Yun’s private property, and there were not many people who knew about it. Ye Jiao wouldn’t say it, it could only be Tiezi.
But Tiezi immediately covered his mouth and shook his head, trying to prove his innocence.
Qi Yun raised his eyebrows, and suddenly thought that the one in the palace knew it too. Chu Chengyun revealed to Qi Ming that it was reasonable, and there is nothing to be held accountable. Qi Yun said calmly to Qi Ming: “It’s not a problem, you pay for the rent. , I rented the cash to you. This is a business, so I don’t have any thanks.”
Having said that, Qi Ming knew in his heart that the location and location of the yard were good, and he was afraid it would be difficult to buy.
Even though his second brother often tossed him, he had to consider everything that should be considered, and Qi Ming even felt that writing boxes of large characters was Qi Yun’s training for him.
The second brother is really an excellent person.
Seeing Qi Ming’s expression moved, Qi Yun didn’t say a word, he just drank tea without talking.
At this moment, Liu Si came in and said, “Master, Master Xiao is here.”
When Qi Ming heard this, he said: “Please go to the study and wait for me.” Then Qi Ming said to Qi Yun and Ye Jiao, “Brother Xiao came to see me for business.”
Qi Yun nodded, his expression unchanged: “Go ahead.”
Qi Ming then left.
After he left, Qi Yun whispered: “This Master Xiao, I think he is the champion before, Xiao Yuanbai is now.”
Ye Jiao smiled and said: “The last time I was in front of Saburo’s house, I saw them sharing a car. Later, Saburo also asked me to ask for peach blossom cakes to give to Mrs. Xiao. The relationship is very good.”
As soon as he said this, Qi Yun was silent.
Because Qi Yun paid more attention during this period, he could vaguely find out that Qi Ming’s idea was to reform the imperial examination, add the law, and employ talents only.
This was not accomplished overnight, the first emperor was slowly implementing it while he was alive, but now it just needs to be determined.
Among them, it is naturally dangerous. Talented use of people will naturally infringe the interests of some high-ranking households. It is normal for them to be unwilling, and they will also interfere with the interests of many scholar-officials. These people will inevitably hate Qi Ming.
However, it was Xiao Yuanbai who made the move, and Qi Ming’s name just followed. Yili advocated the implementation of Prime Minister Meng, and Zhu Chengyun approved it.
These few people placed in the front are the copper walls and iron walls, and no one can move.
Especially the Xiao family, they originated in Hedong, they are one of the top high-ranking households in the capital, and many powerful people are looking forward to them. As long as the Xiao family let go, things are half done.
Originally Qi Yun thought, Xiao Yuanbai stood in front of Qi Ming and helped him block most of the sharp arrows. There was a hint from Chu Chengyun, but now I see that this Xiao Zhuangyuan has a very close relationship with his third brother. .
Seeing that he didn’t speak, Ye Jiao was a little curious: “Msang, what do you think?”
Hearing this, Qi Yun shook Ye Jiao’s hand and whispered softly, “I think, Saburo’s ability to make friends is much better than his ability to read books.”
Going out and acknowledging that a righteous brother is the future emperor, the colleagues who work in the yamen are the rich and powerful in Hedong, and even the prime minister is the home of the lover who is in love on the street across the horse.
Saburo doesn’t have many friends, but they all use them.
Ye Jiao heard vaguely, and was about to ask when she saw Tiezi trot in the door.
Qi Yun looked at him and said, “Puff well and then speak.”
Tiezi stood up obediently, took a few deep breaths, and then said: “Master, just now Her Royal Highness Princess Long sent someone to say that General Ye won the victory and was stationed in Shiliting, and he will enter Beijing tomorrow.”
The author has something to say: Qi Ming: My second brother treats me very well. I must write big characters to sharpen my will!
Qi Yun: No, I just want to punish you
Qi Ming: The second brother must have taken into account my ideas, that’s why I have to say that!
Qi Yun:…oh
