Lady of Fortune, Jiao Niang

When the little guy ran in, Xiao Su followed closely behind.

Xu Bao, who is now able to run and jump, is much more lively than before, and he runs very fast. Xiaosu feels sweaty just as he protects.

When Xu Bao slapped the door hard, it was too late for Xiao Su to stop him.

Seeing that he had pushed the door in, Xiao Su could only squat down and hugged Xu Bao's chubby body to prevent him from entering the room, and whispered to him: "Little ancestor, the second young master and the second young grandmother are doing important things. Things, shall we wait for them outside?"

Xu Bao raised his chubby face and looked at Xiao Su, with a clear voice: "Uncle San is important!"

This is not made up by Xu Bao, but Qi Yun told the little guy himself.

Xu Bao still doesn’t understand what an imperial examination is. Qi Yun’s explanation is that “you must work hard on this matter if you want to be a prime minister.” Xu Bao’s ambition is to be a prime minister and take care of his father. Books, this is very important, so the imperial examination is very important.

Qi Ming was kind to him, always willing to coax him, read to him and tell stories, and now Qi Ming went to the imperial examination, Xu Bao naturally assumed that his third uncle was doing a great thing.

All other things can be put aside, now the most important thing is to find Uncle San!

Xu Bao also specifically tugged at the little clothes on his body: "Xu Bao specially wears it, go to the third uncle."

Xiaosu looked at Xu Bao's red clothes, and didn't know what to say for a while, but the door to the inner room opened.

Qi Yun was drawing eyebrows on Ye Jiao, and he came over to open the door after hearing the movement outside. At a glance, he saw his fat son staring at him.

Qi Erlang was holding Luo Zidai in his hand, unable to hug him, so he could only ask: "Why did Xu Bao come by himself so early?" Then he looked at Xiao Su, "has he eaten?"

Before Xiao Su could speak, Xu Bao immediately replied: "Xu Bao ate with his mother." Then he poked his head to look inside.

Qi Yun motioned to Xiao Su to release Xu Bao, then he took Luo Zidai and walked back to the makeup mirror, holding up Ye Jiao's face again to help her draw her eyebrows and said: "Wait."

Xu Bao ran over and hugged Qi Yun's calf: "When will Daddy leave?"

Qi Yun didn't respond to him immediately, but carefully painted the distant mountains and eyebrows, which he is best at.

Although I was going to pick up Qi Ming today, this was also the first time Ye Jiao went out seriously after entering Beijing.

After arriving in the capital, Qi Yun found out that the biggest difference between this place and his hometown was not the financial resources and official power, but the eyes of the people here are always idle.

Those who can live in the capital have a little bit of their own ability, whether it is a merchant or an official, there are no ordinary people.

Therefore, they are used to looking at others, secretly watching if they don't know what to look at, and then wondering in their minds, they can come up with a big drama.

Nowadays, the first time that his own beautiful lady is in front of others, others will inevitably look at her in the dark. Qi Yun does not feel that Ye Jiao needs to make changes deliberately. On the contrary, he needs to do his own thing to protect her. Own lady.

This thrush is one of them.

When the painting was finished, Qi Yun put down Luo Zidai, wiped his hands with the cloth, then lowered his head and picked up Xu Bao and said to him, "Wait until breakfast is over."

Xu Bao hugged Qi Yun's neck coquettishly, rubbing his cheeks up, and begged softly: "Take Xu Bao, Xu Bao behaved, take Xu Bao."

Qi Yun bumped him upside down without answering.

Originally, Ye Jiao was applying tints to the mirror, and when she saw no movement, she turned her head to look, and then she saw that her father-in-law had no expressions but his eyes were smiling. She made it clear that she had seen Xu Bao’s thoughts, but was enjoying her son’s begging. he.

The little ginseng did not puncture, leaving the two of them sticky, got up to let Xiaosu set the table, and then the two took a baby to eat breakfast, Ye Jiao went to feed the dragon and phoenix baby again, Qi Yun sat on the soft couch With Longfeng Ti and Xu Bao playing next to him, Ye Jiao went to change clothes behind the screen.

Women go out more slowly, and Ye Jiao is the same. It’s not that she is squandering, but that the woman’s clothes are layered on top of each other. It depends on the color scheme, the headwear, and the appropriate Huatian makeup, but everything is wrong. It's all impossible.

Ye Jiao passed other things, but she was as persistent as every ordinary woman in dressing herself up.

Qi Yun had Ning Bao with his left hand and his right hand dangling, hoping to put them to sleep, so that he and Ye Jiao could go out later.

Ning Bao has always been good, lying in Qi Yun's arms, holding a ball of wool, and can fall asleep by himself without Qi Yun wandering.

But Ruyi didn't take this set. She twisted uncomfortably, muttering vaguely incomprehensible voices in her mouth, which made Qi Yun a little confused, and then listened to Xu Bao said: "Daddy, Sister let go."

Qi Yun puzzled: "Why?"

Xu Bao replied solemnly on that little face: "Sister is panicking."

Qi Yun:...

Qi Erlang admitted that he was indeed a little thinner. Even though his body is much stronger than before, he doesn't grow much flesh.

But being said so bluntly still made Qi Yun somewhat helpless.

After putting down Ning Bao, who was already asleep, and Ruyi who was still in trouble, Qi Yun looked at Xu Bao and asked, "How did you know?"

Xu Bao approached Ruyi and hugged her, and said to Qi Yun, "Because Xu Bao was panicked when Dad hugged me." The expression was upright and considerate. It seemed to tell Qi Yun again, he didn't say anything. It is because of the affection between the father and son, which is especially considered for him.

Qi Yun:...

And as suggested, Ning Bao fell asleep and didn't bother him, turned his head and hugged Xu Bao, smiling and dangling back and forth holding Xu Bao's fingers.

Xu Bao also played with her in a decent way, sitting straight, and the two chubby hands hugged Ruyi tightly to prevent her from falling.

This made Qi Yun feel relieved. Even though his fat son usually looks like a coquettish, he looks like a big brother as long as he is in front of his younger siblings.

But Ruyi was still young, and soon became sleepy, and fell asleep on Xu Bao.

Mrs. Mo stepped forward and took the two little dolls away, and took them to sleep in the next wing.

Qi Yun took advantage of this time to pick up Xu Bao and put it on his lap to let him do it to him. Qi Erlang looked at him and said: "This time I will take you. There are many people outside, you want more Be careful not to run around, or you will be targeted by bad guys."

Xu Bao bit his finger and tilted his head, not quite understanding: "Bad guy?"

Qi Yun didn't know how to explain it. It was too true for fear of scaring him. If a child of this age starts to be afraid of people, it will be difficult to teach in the future, but he can't help but say. Running is naturally impossible.

Therefore, Qi Yun can only describe it vaguely: "If someone sees you, they will ask what your name is, what your parents do, and if you are a friend of your parents, they will hug you. That is a bad person."

Although Xu Bao is small, he has a good memory. He repeats it immediately and asks: "What about Xu Bao? Xu Bao can't bear his mother and father."

When Qi Yun heard the words, he touched his son’s head with satisfaction, feeling that Xu Bao’s head was indeed a circle bigger than someone else’s child, and said: "If you really meet you, you will shout, someone abducts Child, catch the bad guy and someone will save you."

Xu Bao nodded and carefully remembered it in his heart.

At this moment, Ye Jiao walked out from behind the screen.

She chose a lake blue curvy, her body was tight and narrow, the hem was spread out, and a piece of purple jade was worn on her belt. At this time, Ye Jiao had not combed her bun, and her long hair was loosely tied with a belt. At the tail, the broken hair hanging from his ears as he walked, Mei's made Qi Yun unconsciously hold his breath.

The clothes were made by the silk and satin shop on Ye Jiaoqiao before, and they all used the best materials.

In the past, Qi Erlang didn't think there would be any difference between the quality of the clothes. After all, he liked this person. Even if he changed to a fairy, he would not take a look at it. As for the dress, it should be suitable, and the others don't feel much.

But at this moment, Qi Yun suddenly understood why women have so many pursuits for good-looking clothes and jewelry, and why a good dress is more expensive than gold in this silk shop in the capital.

What is it on the head, the lips of Cuiwei's leaves hang down on the temples.What can I see from behind, Zhu presses his waist to stabilize his body.

But after such a momentary loss of consciousness, Qi Yun did not speak, but Xu Bao yelled first: "Mother is good-looking!" Then he raised his hand to give Ye Jiao a hug.

Little Ginseng laughed immediately, walked over and hugged Xu Bao, and kissed him several times.

Qi Yun stared at this little flattery and snorted, but he didn't show it on the face. Instead, he said with a faint expression: "I'll go and let the iron car set, and I will leave later."

But when he went out, Qi Yun still leaned in Ye Jiao's ear and whispered: "Next time, make a few more items. I'll accompany you."

Ye Jiao replied, her eyebrows curled up with a smile.

When the Qi family's carriage went to the Gongyuan, there were already several other carriages waiting there.

Qi Yun didn't let the carriage go too far, but found a cool place to stop, and then took Ye Jiao out of the carriage and walked around. It was a bit of relaxation, and when there were more people, he returned to the carriage with Ye Jiao. , Neither greeted anyone nor was too ostentatious.

It's just that there are still many people's eyes looking over there, Shishi on the Wen's carriage is one of them.

Shi clan lowered the curtain after Qi Yun and his wife returned to the carriage, did not speak, but the woman on the side whispered: "Madam, do we want to go and say hello to the Qi family?"

The mother-in-law Shi understands that now the Wen family and Qi family live next to each other, and you can see you when you look up. Besides, Shi Tianrui's brother Shi Tianrui has been close to the Qi family, so she should have said hello in the past.

But Shi Shi did not move.

She is different from Shi Tianrui. Shi Tianrui is dedicated to serving the country. He is talented but has noble personality. If he had not been incompatible with officialdom, he would not be demoted from the capital.

However, Shi is a tolerant, and he is the most cautious when doing things one step at a time.

Even if he knew that the Qi family and he had become neighbors, the Shi family never revealed anything to Shi Tianrui in the letter, and now he would not take the initiative to provoke the Qi family, but whispered to the mother-in-law: "No hurry, after a while. The Qi family lady must be here to post, and it won’t be too late. Otherwise, I’m catching up with the past and I’m in my current situation. If people think I’m taking advantage of it, it’s not easy to get along with."

Upon hearing this, the woman's face was a bit angrily: "But every time a post comes, it is robbed by the little bitch in the West Yard, and it never reaches us."

Shi did not speak, but just covered the corners of his mouth with the veil.

The Wen family has one wife and three concubines. The Shi family is down now. Even the wife of the main house is not taken seriously. In addition, everything is controlled by the noble concubine Sun who gave birth to the son. Now the Shi family basically ignores family affairs. , Except for occasions where the lady of the house needs to come forward, nothing is actually left next to him.

But she had some cares in her heart: "Don't worry. Although Lang Jun is unclear about matters between men and women, he will not be confused about these matters. If the matter of petting his concubine and destroying his wife spreads out, he and I will be bothered. No face, no matter how the Sun family is favored, she won't be able to touch these things. Otherwise, his son will try, why let me wait outside."

The mother-in-law thought about it and thought it was the reason, so she stopped talking.

But he didn't see the coldness in Shi's eyes.

She and the head of the Wen family had no feelings for a long time, and they didn't say much. They said they were husband and wife, but they were not as good as strangers.

Shi Shi just watched, even when Qi Yun and Ye Jiao had just come down and walked for a while before a stick of incense, the two obviously loved each other.

It's really a spouse that everyone envy can't come.

No wonder his sister-in-law Zheng, who has seven thoughts open, would get close to Ye Jiao. Every time he wrote to him, he would boast a few words. Now, even if he just glanced at it, he feels warm in his heart.

I think there are many people who just stared at them, and I am afraid that many people are jealous. Shi is calm, probably because her family has no hope at all, and she does not want to make everyone in the world because of her bad life. The bad mad woman, now looking at Ye Jiao, Shi Shi has a lot more kindness.

Squeezing the Sipa in his hand, Shi closed his eyes and said nothing more.

And Ye Jiao didn't know that just a few steps would be enviable. She was sitting on the carriage, leaning on Qi Yun, holding a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake in her hand and sending it to her mouth.

Qi Yun put a silk paw on her leg, the scraps of the osmanthus cake in the province stained her dress, and her other hand was wrapped around Ye Jiao's slender waist, looking at Ye Jiao with a smile.

Before replacing it, Qi Yun would never think that he could look at people and eat and be fascinated, but now, he can’t see enough of what his own girl is doing. Carry it in your arms at any time.

Ye Jiao misunderstood Qi Yun's meaning. Seeing him staring at herself, he handed the half-eaten sweet-scented osmanthus cake to him: "Msgong, you eat?"

Qi Yun is a person who doesn't like sweets, but since Ye Jiao spoke, he didn't refuse, so he ate the sweet-scented osmanthus cake with Ye Jiao's hand.

Xu Bao looked at his eyes hot, but did not start to fight.

Little Wawa knows when she can act like a baby with her parents and when she should be quiet. In the end, she can see her parents and the children who grew up with Mei.

Just staying in the carriage for a long time makes it boring. If the carriage moves, it's okay, but it's parked like this, and it has to sit on it for several hours.

So he pulled Ye Jiao's sleeve down and asked, "Mother, Xu Bao wants to go down and play."

Just as Ye Jiao was about to speak, he heard someone knock on the car outside and said, "Second Young Master, Guan Shi Qin let someone pass a message."

Qi Yun heard the words and said to Ye Jiao: "Sit in the car first, and I will take Xu Bao down for a walk."

Ye Jiao nodded, helped Qi Yun tidy up the folds of the neckline, and watched him get out of the car holding Xu Bao.

Qi Yun put Xu Bao on the ground and told him: "Just walk here, you can't run far. Do you remember what I said to you before?"

Xu Bao straightened his back when he heard it: "Remember."

Qi Yun nodded, motioned to the woman on the side to follow him, and gave Xu Bao a nine-link. Seeing Xu Bao sitting on a small bench to solve the nine-link, he called Tiezi to come over and talk.

Tiezi looked around and saw that there was no one else there, and said to Qi Yun: "Second Young Master, Qin Guanshi said that the old man who burned the porcelain had already been found. They just settled in an inn outside the city. For those who are going back to their hometown, their counterpart has also detected it," Tiezi lowered his voice, "It's the Wen family."

Qi Yun raised his eyebrows slightly, his voice flat: "Which Wen family?"

"It's our neighbor." As he said, Tiezi looked far away, and there was the Wen family's carriage.

Qi Yun frowned slightly when he heard the words.

Before, Qi Yun didn't want to have anything to do with the Wen family. In his opinion, most of the restless people in the back house were also in a mess in front of him, so that Qi Yun hadn't listened to his family's affairs carefully, thinking about the peace. That's it, there is no overlap in the left and right business, and there is no need for deep friendship.

But now it seems that the Wen family is more chaotic than he thought.

However, Qi Yun thought for a while, and then said: "Now you go tell Guan Shi, find a way to keep them staying temporarily, we will have food and accommodation. We will wait for them to talk about things next to them."

Tiezi responded, and then ran away to spread the word.

Qi Yun looked at Xu Bao again.

Xiao Pangdun said that he wanted to go down for a stroll. In fact, he didn’t like to be bored in the car. As long as he got out of it, he didn’t run around everywhere. Very focused.

Qi Yun did not help, nor did he step forward. Instead, he stood not far away and looked around.

The place he chose to park the carriage is very good. You can see the surroundings, but it is a leeward place. It is not easy to be heard by others. In addition, the Qi family’s background is not clear, and ordinary people don’t move forward. It's also empty.

Less than an hour before the gate of the Gongyuan was opened, there were already quite a few people who came, and some stood waiting underneath, but rarely greeted each other.

After all, all the thoughts are in the Gongyuan. If you have time for greetings, it is better to pray to the sky, and bless your son and son will be well.

But looking at it, Qi Yun found that two people looked very familiar.

They originally stood far away, but after looking over, they stepped forward towards this side.

Squinting his eyes slightly, Qi Yun quickly recognized their identities.

Chu Chengyun, and Ye Pingrong.

Both of them seem to be very low-key. People who are not familiar with it will definitely not recognize it. Chu Chengyun even brought a Confucian scarf and a paper fan, which was completely different from the previous appearance.

Even though there are many people around, no one thinks that the prince of a country will walk outside the Gongyuan at this time when they want to come when they bow their heads slightly.

Qi Yun didn't stand up, but walked over to meet him.

This allowed Chu Chengyun and Ye Pingrong to walk smoothly in front of Qi Yun. When Qi Yun saw Chu Chengyun again, he immediately showed a look of surprise, and then he was about to salute: "Cao Min..."

"Okay, I will just pretend to be out of the palace. You don't need so much politeness." Chu Chengyun was obviously very happy to see the surprise on Qi Yun's face. He raised his hand to stop Qi Yun's movements, but his eyes were facing away. Look at the gate of the Gongyuan.

Qi Yun naturally knew that Chu Chengyun had come to see Qi Ming. He felt that his third brother was stupid and blessed, but he lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes. ."

These words really caught Chu Chengyun's itch.

He obviously felt that the secret meeting between him and Qi Ming was hidden from everyone. Qi Yun definitely didn't know. He was selfish when he came to see him now. But when Qi Yun said this, he was very upright, Chu Chengyun immediately laughed. : "Yes, these are the pillars of the future imperial court. Naturally, we need to care more."

Ye Pingrong listened to the side, a little confused.

Is my brother-in-law just flattering?

But it doesn't sound like it. People from all over the world like my brother-in-law will certainly not do such things. I want to say it sincerely, alas, my brother-in-law is still too straightforward.Ye Pingrong was very embarrassed in his heart.

Then the three people talked, saying it was a response, rather it was a small chat. Qi Yun explained the caravan's affairs one by one, and Chu Chengyun paid special attention to himself, the first time he paid money, and listened carefully.

Although Ye Pingrong could not speak, he was still listening.

He didn't care how much money Chu Chengyun made. Compared to the emperor's master, he was more concerned about how much his brother-in-law could get in return, so that his sister's life could be better and Ye Pingrong could feel at ease.

However, Chu Chengyun's attention was not on Qi Yun, and soon he was attracted by a small meat dumpling.

Subconsciously walking over, Chu Chengyun stood still in front of Xu Bao, staring at him with his head down.

For Chu Chengyun, he has never forced the fate of his children. Unlike ordinary nobles of Tianhuang, Chu Chengyun is not a person who wants to have countless children every day to consolidate his imperial power. He also cherishes the Meng family and never Take the initiative to mention it, for fear of Meng's sadness.

But in his heart, he likes Meng Shi like children.

Xu Bao looked lovable, sitting there as a soft one, who wanted to get close to anyone who looked at it.

But such a stop blocked the sunlight in front of Xu Bao.

Xu Bao moved for a while, frowning slightly, and the moment his eyebrows were frowned, his expression looked like Qi Yun, but when he raised his head to look, his eyes were clear again, and his little fleshy face looked harmless to humans and animals.

When they were talking just now, Xu Bao had been playing with Jiu Lianhuan, neither heard nor saw it.

Suddenly, I saw a stranger standing in front of him. Xu Bao moved back to make sure that the mother-in-law was still with him. Then he softly said, "Who are you?"

One sentence made Chu Chengyun feel soft.

Most of the milk dolls that you usually see are brought to him after being taught hard by family members. They are so good that they even tremble when they talk to him. Chu Chengyun feels like a fierce Yaksha. I'm not too happy to look after children.

Suddenly seeing someone who is not afraid of himself, Chu Chengyun became interested and smiled and said, "I am your father's friend, who are you?"

Xu Bao's eyes flickered, but he didn't speak.

Chu Chengyun didn’t care. He looked at Xu Bao’s age and knew that this should be the first son of Qi Yun and Ye Jiao, and the child’s name was Qi Ce. When Ye Jiao was pregnant with him, Chu Cheng Yun also said that he would help him in the future.

At that time, Chu Chengyun felt that he was probably going to be a strong man. After all, he had no support at that time. The brothers beside him seemed to be more capable than him. Chu Chengyun was seriously injured again, and it was inevitable that he would be sad.

I want to give Xu Bao a word, but I also give myself hope, or hope for the future.

Today, his nine-five-year-old is still pure-hearted, and he has not forgotten everything he did.

Now that Xu Bao is seen, it is naturally more intimate than seeing the children next to him.

So Chu Chengyun smiled and said, "It's okay. I know your name is Xu Bao. I saw your father just now. Can I take you to find him?" Then, Chu Chengyun bent over and hugged Xu Bao in. Arms.

Before Xu Bao could resist, he was hugged.

Qi Yun, who was talking with Ye Pingrong in the distance, saw it, but didn't care. Instead, he was willing to get closer to Chu Chengyun with his son.

And the women on the side saw that he and his masters met, and Xiao Su signaled them to be quiet, so these women did not say much.

However, Xu Bao suddenly reached out and pushed Chu Chengyun's shoulder.

This time, Chu Chengyun pushed Chu Chengyun inexplicably, but he was sturdy, firmly protected Xu Bao, and also helped the little guy on his back to fall.

But Chu Chengyun didn't know that Xu Bao was panicking now.

Although he is small, his memory is always good, coupled with the fact that Qi Yun and Chen Qing are good before, make Xu Bao even more impressive.

The little guy kept in his head what Qi Yun said to him before--

The bad guys, that means those who know Xu Bao's parents, ask their names, and have to take them away!

This person is going to take himself away now!

bad guy!

So, when the Gongyuan over there opened the door, Xiao Pangdun worked hard, holding his arms to keep Chu Chengyun away from him, while pulling his neck and shouting: "Daddy, mother, help! The bad guys abducted children. Baby!"
