Lady of Fortune, Jiao Niang

Xu Cheng looked at Qi's Uncle Qi who was paralyzed on the ground, his face was unbearable, but he felt a little disapproving in his heart.

He was born chubby and his face was fleshy. He looked like a kind-hearted and compassionate Buddha, but how many of him can be official?What's more, it's a seven-tier prefecture. If it's better, it's your parents. If it's worse, it's because you face trivial matters every day and see a lot of messy things.

Only after becoming an official will I know that the world in the books has been beautified, and that the living world is the hard-to-read scripture of every family.

In Xu Cheng's view, this Qi family's affairs are nothing but face in the final analysis.

If the Qi family’s three princes did not have the accomplishments they are today, the seven uncles of this age would not be able to find them, but now they just think that the Qi family has something to do. Tolerate them more, which gave these people the courage to wander around in front of others.

The result was that Qi Jia Erlang was indeed the one who wanted a face, and that his face was earned by himself, given by the emperor!

The emperor said that they are good people, and they are good people. Whoever says nothing is to challenge the emperor.

This face is bigger than anything else, besides, this is the business of the Qi family Zhanli, and now there is the support of the heavenly family behind it, and this scolding is over before it even starts.

Qi Yun didn't look at Qi Shugong and the others from beginning to end. When he asked Tie Zi to find Master Zhizhou, he had already predicted the current result.

There are no gentle methods, but Qi Yun is too lazy to delay.

He is going to return to Beijing sooner or later. Before he goes back, it is Qi Yun's filial piety to clarify the family affairs.

Last time I tore my skin, but the family's skin was torn off one layer and another layer, and the layers are endless, so don't ask for it completely. This time, I will completely break the relationship cleanly.

At this moment, Qi Yun didn't even look at Uncle Qi. He just looked at Xu Cheng and said, "Master Xu, if the cold ground is freezing today, please come to the mansion to have a bit of hot tea to warm yourself up, so you can discuss something. The matter of building a bridge."

Xu Cheng also laughed, and said, "It's okay, it's hard for Erlang to have the heart." Then Xu Cheng turned around and whispered to the office worker, "The officer has something to discuss with Qijia Erlang, you first go to Master Zhizhou to report a letter. "

Qi Yun could hear this, but he pretended not to know, so he stood behind Qi's father and Qi Zhao, put his hands in the sleeves for holding hands, and held the stove with a calm expression.

Father Qi also understood, smiled and said kind words to Xu Cheng, and entered the door together.

Qi Zhao looked at his second brother, thinking that his second brother is the same as before. This brain is as easy to use as a godsend. He patted Qi Yun on the shoulder, and then Qi Zhao walked towards the people who were still chilling. Said: "Since the matter is over, go by yourself, our house does not serve food."

This is like a beggar, but in Qi Zhao's mind, this group of people who want to label themselves harm Saburo are not as good as beggars.

Other beggars can also play allegro and sing auspicious songs. They are afraid that they can't do anything besides sitting and eating in the sky.

Then Qi Zhao didn't look at it much, winked at the young servants, and took Qi Yun back.

Qi Erlang looked at his elder brother, and only felt that he was a little more majestic and righteous now than the simple Fangzheng and pure kindness before.

This change is excellent. The older brother can be more serious and the younger brother feels at ease. Qi Yun is happy to see the result, and obediently follows Qi Zhao and enters the door.

The Qi family servant didn't entangle them much, and pushed them a few times to make them go farther, and then went back.

When the door closed, the "bang" was particularly loud.

Uncle Qi was already in a daze, and he didn't even know how he got back on the carriage.

There were messy sounds all around, and these juniors were crying and making noises and hoped that Uncle Qi could find a way to rescue the two children. The two children were entangled in their lives. The crimes committed were indeed unforgivable, and they were really sentenced. , From light to weight and beheading, how can they be willing!

Uncle Qi closed his eyes and said nothing.

It took a long time to squeeze out a sentence: "Let's go, now... I'm afraid it's hard to save the gods."

Tiezi kept lying on the door panel, and when there was no sound from outside, he trot back to the front hall and nodded to Qi Yun.

Upon seeing this, Qi Erlang waved his hand to make Tiezi withdraw first, and then he talked to Xu Cheng about the bridge.

This matter is not only Qi Yun's means to win the Qi family's reputation, but from the heart.

One is to benefit the neighbors, and the other is of great benefit to the Qi family.

Qi Zhao's Zhuangzi and Qi Yun's wine shop are already connected together. The two brothers can benefit from grain production here and wine making there.

It's just that Qi Yun's wine shop is getting bigger and bigger now, and more and more are used for water transportation. He wants to build a new port by the river to make it more convenient for him.

But this matter cannot be said straightforwardly, and it is not easy to find a way out. After all, my business and official luck are too smooth now. I don't know how many people are the targets. If you want to do this, you can only start small.

This bridge repair and road paving are all things that benefit the future, and it can be regarded as Xu Cheng's political achievements. The county magistrate is relieved, and the future will naturally have its own benefits.

Now Qi Yun only talks about repairing the bridge, and nothing else is mentioned.

Ye Jiao usually didn't participate in Qi Yun's business, so she went back to the backyard with Fang's family to prepare something for the New Year, and then see if the children were awake.

When several children are all having fun, it is likable to gather in one place, and if they wake up, they happen to be playing in one place.

Even squeezing and hugs are fun.

When I returned, I saw that the dragon and phoenix were wearing swollen clothes sitting on the ground and playing with the ball. Xu Bao on the side was dragging the stone, and he was talking to him. If you ignore the blankness on the stone face, the scene is still exceptionally peaceful. Happy.

Although Shitou wanted to study for fame, it wasn't Xu Bao's temperament who took pleasure in reading. He finally finished the school homework. After seeing Xu Bao, he wanted to play together, but ended up with Xu Bao's endorsement. It is indeed a bit tormented for Little Stone.

However, Longfengtai likes Brother Stone very much. Every time Brother Stone comes, his brother can let them go, which is really good.

After Ye Jiao and Fang entered the door, Shishi thought that they had seen a savior. Who knew Fang Shi was just saying: "It's rare for the children to work so hard, Shishi, come, recite a paragraph and listen."

stone:……

For a while, he couldn't tell whether it was a bit miserable to accompany Xu Baozhihu, or whether he was pulled out by his own mother to perform a bit miserable.

Xu Bao immediately raised his head and stood there with his chest straight up: "Xu Bao wants to carry it too! Auntie, let Xu Bao carry it."

Fang immediately smiled and nodded, touched Xu Bao's head and said, "Okay, OK, Xu Bao is so smart, I want to listen."

Xu Bao opened his mouth and back, spoke clearly, and his voice was smooth, making the stone beside him amazed and getting closer to Xu Bao.

Not to mention, just for the sake of Xu Bao's brother playing for himself today, he will treat Xu Bao better and better in the future.

After the recitation was over, Xiao Su happened to bring snacks and fruits into the door. Ye Jiao asked the older two to wash their hands and eat them by themselves. She and Fang took a bowl and spoon to feed the baby.

Fang Shi looked at Xu Bao, who was holding a big apple and gnawing at it. His eyes couldn't hide the exclamation. Then Fang Shi sat next to Ye Jiao and said in a low voice, "This kid is really smart. You can understand the meaning of "University" by memorizing it. It is indeed a good seed for reading."

Ye Jiao usually doesn't bother her children with studying, so she said: "I don't know if it's a good seedling. I just think that he can be with the stone in the future." Then the little Ginseng's voice paused, "Xu Bao has a big head, so it's normal to remember more things."

Fang cried for a moment, and immediately curled up the corners of his mouth, looking at Ye Jiao smiling and speechless.

Xu Bao didn't know that his mother was talking about his big head behind his back, and he wouldn't know that he almost called this name when he wanted to come. At this moment, the little guy just quietly nibbles on the apple and eats with extra concentration.

Then, the Fang family talked about another thing: "Since the younger siblings are back, there will be a few tea parties in a while, let's go together."

Ye Jiao nodded and said, "Okay."

Ye Jiao used to go to a lot of this kind of tea party when he was at home.

On the other hand, Fang gave Ruyi milk with a spoon, and while wiping the corner of Xiao Ruyi's mouth with a kerchief, he said to Ye Jiao: "There are also invitations from Mrs. Zhizhou, but I said it was today’s tea party, but I don’t know why. I just made people say that the day has changed, and I will go with my younger siblings when it's settled."

Ye Jiao nodded, but didn't take it to heart.

But I don't know that the reason for the change of the tea party was something that happened just now in the Qi family.

At this moment, there is already a mess in the Zhizhou Yamen. Master Wei frowned slightly and said, "Who are these people here?"

The book official hurriedly came forward to report: "Most of them are merchants in the city, saying that they want to sue the Qi family for not repaying the debts, cheating, and..."

Lord Wei sat up straight, and said, "Qi family? Which Qi family?"

The book official was taken aback, and then said: "That Qi family in the west of the city."

"Not the Qi family outside the city?"

"No, they are suing the Qi family where two people were arrested before."

Master Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and the folds between his eyebrows loosened a lot: "That's all right, if it involves the Qi family outside the city, I'm afraid things will be more troublesome."

The book official nodded repeatedly, even if Master Wei didn't explain, he understood the difference.

The Qi family outside the city is the number one wealthy family, and there are people in the family who are officials in the capital, which is difficult to provoke.Fortunately, this family is usually extraordinarily well-behaved and will not provoke right and wrong, and naturally will not embarrass the yamen.

It's best that things don't have anything to do with the Qi family. As for the household in the city, he can't live by himself.

Master Wei calmed down and said, "In this case, whoever passes the testimony will take it. Those who should be judged by the county magistrate will be handed over to Mr. Xu. Take care of the people and merchants who complain, and don't cause trouble."

The book official replied, and understood that what my adults meant was to do business in an official manner and not to favor favoritism. Naturally, this was the easiest thing to do, and the book official's heart was much settled.

Master Wei took a deep breath, stood up, walked to the table, picked up the letter paper on the table, looked through it, and then threw it aside.

Because the calligrapher had been working in the yamen and was by the side of Master Zhizhou, he naturally knew that there was something about the girl Shen that was written there, but he didn't know how to react for a while.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Master Wei was still silent, the book official said: "My lord, the girl from the Shen family had no news as soon as she entered the palace. The news now is that she was involved in the palace's incidents, made mistakes, and died. I don’t know, but I have to talk to Shen Jia..."

"Stop the sound." Master Wei glared at the book clerk, and when he saw the book clerk shut his mouth, he slowly exhaled.

Although he was a foreign official, Master Wei still had his own connections in the capital.

Because of this personal connection, when the voice was released in the capital to select the beauties to fill the harem, Mr. Wei did not recommend his own girls of the right age, but acquiesced to the Shen family, and finally sent it to the girl.

Master Wei knew that entering the palace was not a good thing, so he allowed others to do things.

But what Master Wei didn't expect was that Miss Shen didn't come back, but stayed in the palace desperately, she was really stupid to the end.

Now that something happened, Master Wei was not surprised, but he was unwilling to let the people under his hand discuss it.

There is no other reason, just because Lord Wei knows exactly what the major incidents in the palace are.

The queen gave birth and the king left Beijing. As long as there is some news, it is difficult not to connect the two things together.

Now I heard that Ms. Shen didn't know her life or death because of the affairs in the palace. It was extremely troublesome to think about any matter, and it was good to be silent.

After all, people walked out, and the Shen family wanted to strive for the upper hand. For their opportunity, Master Wei did whatever they wanted, no matter what their original intentions were. As for the fate now, it is everyone's choice, each with its own life.

Among them, Mr. Wei did not declare it out of his mouth, but said: "Don't mention it again in the future. As for how the Shen family has nothing to do with the official, the relevant things are just as unknown."

The book official also knew that it was "rare to be confused", and stopped talking after responding.

At this time, someone outside reported: "My lord, there is an officer sent by my lord outside the door who wants to see him."

Master Wei thought it was a business matter, so he said to the bookkeeper: "Go and see, the official is exhausted, if it's not a major matter, you don't need to report it."

The book official hurried out, and ran back shortly thereafter, and said to Master Wei: "The officer said, Master Xu asked him to bring a message, saying that the Qi family has received the imperial plaque again and will hang it in the afternoon."

Master Wei, who was planning to go to the back hall to rest, immediately sat up straight: "What character did you give?"

"Say yes, Haotian is absolutely irrelevant."

Master Wei pondered these four words in his heart, and the more he pondered, the more he felt that Qi Jiajian was in the heart of the emperor.

Many people have received golden plaques bestowed by the imperial court, but they can get two golden plaques that are both extremely square. This is not what ordinary people can do.

For those who are officials, it is basic to speculate on the intention.

Taking a step back, no matter whether the emperor is really interested in the Qi family, it doesn't hurt to walk more, not flattering, but not offending.

So Master Wei immediately got up and said, "Go, get the official uniform, you follow the official to the Qi family."

When Master Wei came, the Qi family was already lively.

What a face is this with the gift of the gods!

Moreover, this golden plaque is the emperor's imperial pen, with seals. Ordinary people would kneel down to show respect when they saw it. Who wouldn't envy the Qi family?

There were people who were sore before, thinking that after entering Beijing, Qi Jia Erlang Saburo ignored his family, and even took away the golden plaque of "Aspiration and Cleanliness", making it clear that he did not want his old family to be exposed.

But now, Qi's family has two golden plaques, one in the capital, and one in the family, so neither is delayed.

There are people who are envious, and there are people who are jealous, but no matter what you feel, you must be kind on your face, and rush to congratulate you, hoping to be happy, and there will be some benefits.

There are also people who are angry in their hearts. The Shen family counts as one, and the Qi family in the city counts as one. But nobody cares if they are not angry. Under the current glory of the Qi family, there will be shadows occasionally. Look at it.

To Ye Jiao's surprise, she received a gift, signed by Ye Bao.

For Ye Erlang's family, Ye Jiao can't remember very much, maybe she can still remember the appearance of Ye Erlang and Ye Ersao, but Ye Jiao is very vague about their child Ye Bao.

The last time I saw it was just a child, I counted as a year old, but now I am a twelve-year old boy.

Ye Bao didn't come to the door. He only asked the villagers to bring a gift, a package of sweets, which was not exquisite, but it was kind.

When Ye Jiao heard Qi Yun talk about it, she was stunned at first, and then said: "Manggong, what does this mean?"

Qi Yun looked at Ye Jiao, and said, "It's probably a good show. I heard that he is also good at studying in the school."

He asked the person who sent the goods and said that Ye Erlang had no news after owing gambling debts. Ye Ersao moved, but Ye Bao was still studying in the school, especially hard, thinking that he had reached the age of knowing right and wrong. Up.

For this family, Qi Yun has never cared about it, and now he just mentioned it to Ye Jiaolue.

Ye Jiao relied on Qi Yun, thought for a while, and said, "This is a good thing."

Although Little Ginseng is not a long time as a human being, his mind is always clear and clear. After becoming a mother, it is more difficult to raise children.

Every child is a piece of blank paper, everything is taught by parents.

If you teach well, then you will be a good boy. If you teach bad, you will become crooked.

Ye Bao used to bully Ye Jiao when he was young, and most of them were to follow the example of his parents. The malice that children show when they don’t understand anything is often the malice of adults. They learn it, but they don’t know it. The consequences are more extreme.

It is not easy in itself to be able to break right after going to school now.

Be more sensible, the future will be easier if you want to.

It's just that Ye Jiao never thought about going back together. Although she was not a grudge, she was not a bodhisattva who could forgive everything.

It's Ye Jiao's own business to decide who to interact with. Besides, there are so many good children in the world, if she wants to meet all of them, she is afraid that she will die.

Qi Yun gently touched his wife's back and asked: "What do you think?"

Ye Jiao raised her head to look at him, and said solemnly: "Reading can change your life. Reading is really good."

Qi Yun didn't expect Ye Jiao to come to this conclusion in the end. After thinking about it, he felt that there was nothing wrong, so he smiled and nodded, revealing the matter and not mentioning it again.

It is already three days after the excitement brought about by the golden plaque, and the Qi family will also start to prepare to buy the things they will use for the New Year, as well as give out money from the steward and the shopkeeper.

Because Yue'er was still young, Fang always had to take time to take care of her, and the things on the books were a little imperfect, so Ye Jiao had to help her.

And Qi Yun also wants to meet with the treasurer at home and talk about the situation on the shop floor.

The beating that should be beaten, the encouragement that should be encouraged, Qi Yun is also busy every day from morning to night. It is rare that he took a free time after dark on this day, so he went to the courtyard of Father Qi and Liu.

When we went there, Father Qi and Liu family were preparing supper to eat. They heard that Qi Yun was coming, and they did not let anyone withdraw from the table. After all, they were a family, they didn't have so much scruples, so they let Qi Yun come in. Up.

After Qi Yun came in, he looked at them, and said first: "The child is not filial, and it disturbs his parents to rest."

Father Qi smiled and said, "It's okay, Erlang sits down, but what's the important thing?" If it's not important, Qi Yun will definitely not come here so late.

Liu clan greeted Qi Yun to sit next to him, turned his head and said to Granny Liu: "Go and add a pair of chopsticks."

Qi Yun didn't feel hungry, but since the Liu family had said it, he sat next to Liu family, and after eating two snacks, he put his chopsticks away, looked at his father and mother, and said slowly: "Because of the day I'm busy, so I can only say it at night," and then the voice paused, "I wonder if my parents know that there is a Meng family in the capital?"

Father Qi's face was a little dazed. Although he was the head of the family, he was a thousand miles away from the capital. He naturally didn't know who was in the capital.

Even if I hear people talk about the capital occasionally, to people outside, the capital is like another world, magnificent and beautiful, but I don’t know who is inside, let alone ordinary people. Who will go back to inquire about things thousands of miles away?

At most, it is to write down the emperor's name, avoid the words when naming the children, and most of them are asking three questions.

Instead, the Liu clan turned the hand of the Buddhist beads and stopped, looking at Qi Yun and said, "But out of the Queen’s Empress’s Meng family? I remember, it seems that his master is still the prime minister. Although this Meng family is a relative, he is also the most It's Jin Gui's family."

Qi Yun didn't expect his mother to know this. He was a little surprised, but didn't ask much. Instead, he nodded and said, "Yes, it's the Meng family."

Father Qi still didn't know who the Meng family was, but after hearing that the queen was also the prime minister, he thought he was a top-notch big family, and said with emotion: "There are not many people like this in the world. Lots of people."

Liu knew in his heart that his Erlang would not mention this family plainly. Now when he talked about the usefulness of him, Liu stretched out his hand and pulled Qi's father's sleeve when he thought of this. Qi's father immediately stopped talking, just watch lovingly. Holding Qi Yun, motioned for him to continue.

Then Qi Yun said: "I am coming back this time, in addition to accompany my parents to celebrate the New Year, there are also things to discuss with my parents in person."

Liu Shi smiled, and said, "Erlang, let's talk about it."

Qi Yun raised his eyes, looked at them, and then said slowly: "The emperor wants to show Saburo the marriage. Our family is afraid that we will be married to the Meng family soon. We also asked my parents to prepare for the three-media and six-hiring. it is good."

Liu's:...

Father Qi:...

As soon as the words came out, Liu clan was stunned, and Qi's father was taken aback. First he got up, and then immediately sat back, only the bowl in his hand fell straight to the ground, and it fell to pieces.

The author has something to say: Ye Jiao: My baby is best recognized, the one with the big head is

Xu Bao:???
