Qi Yun guessed that his parents would be surprised, but he never thought that the old couple would react so much.

When the bowl fell to the ground, Qi Yun got up, supported Qi's father, turned his head to Tiezi and said: "Clean up as soon as possible, don't get stuck."

Tiezi didn't need anyone else to do it. He ran all the way to get things to clean the ground, then quit neatly, and closed the door intimately.

Father Qi never recovered, looking at Qi Yun blankly.

The Liu family is slightly better. Of course, mothers hope that their children will get better and better. She has long known that the emperor intends to give her own Saburo a marriage, but this family is too high.

When Qi Yun first received a letter, Liu thought that there are no princesses of the right age in the royal family. Could it be that the princess or other noble daughters looked at Saburo and wanted to be his son-in-law. Otherwise, how could he use the emperor to give him a marriage?

This kind of thing is actually not new. Every year among the jinshis, there will be those who are considered by high-ranking families, and now those lords in the imperial court are not all relatives of the emperor, but also the daughters of those who have been knighted for meritorious deeds. There are also many people who want to find new scholars to be friends.

But now the Meng family that Qi Yun is talking about is better than these!

Lord, it sounds good to say, the family has hereditary titles, and it should be a big family, but ordinary people like them are not happy to find their daughters.

Whether or not to say whether the status is honorable or not, even if it is to bear the title, it can only show that the predecessors planted the tree and the descendants took the shade. No matter how rich this tree is, there is no way to bless today's children and grandchildren to be successful.

Many Jinshi are full of economics and great ambitions, but once they are attracted by such people, few can make their mark in the court.

Because once you step into the threshold of this kind of family, it is like a trick. Don't say that there is no need to help in the court, I am afraid that you will have to stay low at home for a lifetime.

The Meng family was different. It had the reputation of the queen’s maiden family, and there was a patriarch who was the prime minister. The emperor was harmonious and had real power. This kind of family would only get better and better, first-class noble.

Being his son-in-law, as long as he is not a fool, he has a great future.

Now it's his turn to Saburo...

The Liu family stubbornly tugged on the kerchief in his hand, and at any rate, he calmly asked, "Which girl from the Meng family are you talking about?"

Qi Yun replied: "There are two girls in the Meng family. Now they are talking about the first sister of the queen's empress, the fifth girl in the Meng family, and her girlfriend's name is Zhilan."

Five girls, Mengwu girls.

Liu chanted this title several times in his heart and wrote it down. For a while, he couldn't remember asking about the birth date, but said: "I don't know what the temperament and appearance of this fifth girl is, how easy to get along with?"

Although Qi Yun has never seen Meng Zhilan, he can guess one or two by relying on the Meng family's tutor and Chu Chengyun's clear tone. At this moment, he said: "The appearance is very good, and I get along very well. Mother can rest assured. "

If he was replaced by someone next to him, even if Qi Ming was a Xinke Tanhua Lang, he was still trusted by the emperor, but he was from an ordinary family and would inevitably be looked down upon by the Yue Zhang family.

But the Meng family is different. This kind of family is bound to have strict rules. There are many officials in the family, and they have a very high reputation. On the contrary, they can save Qi Ming from turning his eyes.

Liu nodded, feeling relieved, as a mother, as long as Liu knew that his daughter-in-law was a good one, he didn't care about it.

It was Father Qi, who finally recovered. He didn't understand what the mother and son said just now. He just looked at Qi Yun and asked, "Erlang, why did the Meng family agree to marry our family?"

Qi Yun lowered his eyes and thought, naturally because the emperor is brother Qi Mingyi, he wanted to be a brother-in-law, and he wanted to find a backer in the Qi Ming Dynasty to facilitate his future administration, so he rushed to match.

But Qi Yun won’t tell his parents about this. After all, they are getting older and can’t help but frighten. Although it sounds like a very glorious thing to be brothers with the emperor, if you say it, I’m afraid you will be surprised by the two elders. Let them worry, and once it is spread, I am afraid that Saburo's reputation will not be good.

Companion with a monarch is like a companion with a tiger. This word has spread so widely. Everyone thinks that it is extremely dangerous to walk in front of the emperor, even if Qi Yun himself knows the rare kindness and virtue of the emperor today, others will not believe it.

Therefore, Qi Yun only said: "Because Saburo won the middle school, he crossed the horse and paraded in the street, and was caught by the Meng Wu girl. The two fell in love at first sight and at second sight. They had promises to each other, and the Meng family agreed.

This is also true. Girls love Tanhua Lang, and teenagers love beautiful girls. This is common sense in the world.

Just listening to Qi's father and Liu's ears, they instantly filled up a lot of drama.

The Liu family even sighed: "I'm afraid that the fifth girl will have to fight to persuade her family to make it difficult for this child."

Father Qi also nodded: "I actually asked for the emperor's grace. Most of it was our Saburo's idea."

"I don't know if my in-laws are angry..."

"Sanniang, we have to prepare more wedding gifts, we can't treat my father-in-law badly."

Qi Yun:...

Qi Erlang couldn't think of what his parents were thinking, but felt that they shouldn't be allowed to listen to so many textbooks. Most of the love stories written by those who fell short of the list were unreliable, but they sounded true.

But since they even called "in-law", it means that this marriage is bound to happen, Qi Yun stopped talking, and told his parents to continue to eat, and then left with Tiezi.

After Qi Yun left, the old couple were relatively speechless, sitting there for a long time without speaking.

I was a little hungry at first, but now I'm scared back, I can't feel it at all.

When the porridge served as a midnight snack on the table has cooled down, Liu said, "Since it is already a fixed matter, we have to start preparing... These three media and six recruits are all necessary. I prepared it for Saburo. Those things have to be taken out."

Father Qi didn't speak, he just sat and looked at the unknown place, looking a little dazed.

He is an honest man, and feels that his greatest blessing is to marry a good lady like the Liu family. Who knows that good things happen one after another, and now he can be the prime minister.

This... how does this look like a dream?

Liu's is more decisive. Since things can't be changed, it's still a good thing like a pie in the sky, she immediately lost the thoughts on her side, but just got up, patted Father Qi on the back, and said: "What about you? Say something, this is a big happy event for our family. Don't be so calm and watch the New Year. You should also prepare things for Saburo."

Father Qi held Liu's hand back and looked at her with his head raised, his voice was a little dumb: "Sanniang, I...am I in a dream?"

When Liu heard this, he immediately stretched out his hand and squeezed Father Qi's face, and said in a bad breath: "Come on, I don't know your courage? Forgive you for not having such a dream."

The pain was pinched, but Father Qi laughed and answered again and again: "The lady is right, I don't dare to have this kind of dream."

Liu Shi gave him a sideways look, but also laughed, and slapped him again. Then the old couple didn’t care about eating, so they went into the inner room and turned out the account at home, looking through and thinking about how to prepare something for Saburo. .

Obviously this time I am going to get married with Gao Men, so this betrothal gift must not be stingy, we must always plan carefully.

It's just that the matter of asking for a marriage is not done overnight. You have to plan slowly. The two elders of the Qi family did not make a big fuss. They just silently prepared things for their own Saburo, and because they were extremely convinced that their own Saburo and Mengwu girls were the kind of exhausted in the storybook. The love story is difficult and dangerous, so it is more and more unwilling to treat Qi Ming and Meng Wu girl.

Ye Jiao and Fang had to let Ye Jiao and Fang help to buy and look at the many items in it. Ye Jiao knew the inside story would not be curious, but Fang didn’t think about it at all. The two tacit understandings didn’t ask too much. Just buy it.

This year is still extremely lively, even more prosperous than previous years.

There are more and more shops in the Qi family, and the harvest on Zhuangzi is also excellent. This year, he paid nearly three hundred guans of money.

The twenty guards who had originally come to give the plaque also left. The place is unknown, and Qi Yun didn't ask, but after they left, they burned three piles of straw and specifically instructed the small kitchen to make some glutinous rice cakes to avoid bad luck.

Even if Qi Yun didn't believe in ghosts and gods, since he guessed that these people were going to kill two abandoned kings, Qi Yun had to think more about it even for his wife and children, it was better to be a little taboo.

People come to visit Qi Mansion in an endless stream, and there are also many posts inviting Fang's Ye Jiao to various tea parties.

The significance is self-explanatory. Because the three lords of the Qi family are all promising, it is rare for Ye Jiao to come back now, and the Fang family is also out of confinement. Naturally, I have to take advantage of this opportunity to get along with them a lot, and it is best to have some relationships. Good to help myself.

Look at Dong Shi, who has a good relationship with Ye Jiao, and this medicine shop is about to go to the capital.

Even if you can't catch up with Ye Jiao, it is very good to have a good relationship with the Fang family. The tenants in Qi Zhao Zhuangzi have spare money, and such an owner is also rare.

But the Fang family did not respond to every tea party. Because Ye Jiao had been in the capital for a long time and was not clear about the affairs of the family, Fang helped her decide which ones to go and which ones not to go. Quite a few, most of them were officials or acquaintances, and the Fang clan also followed Ye Jiao, and they took care of them.

After going back and forth, the relationship between the concubine and the concubine was quite strong, but it was closer than before Ye Jiao left home.

Soon, it was New Year's Eve.

At the 30th year of the new year, there were a lot fewer people coming home to pay a New Year's greetings. The Qi family simply closed the door and began to prepare to guard the New Year.

When I ate dumplings in the evening, compared with last year, there was less Qi Ming on the table, but a lot of milk dolls.

The Dragon and Phoenix fetus chased Xu Bao everywhere, the stone followed to protect, and Yue'er stayed quietly in Fang's arms, staring at her with sullen eyes.

When the dumplings were on the table, several children were hugged and sat in a small chair specially for them. Xu Shitou ate it by himself, while the dragon and phoenix fetus had to be fed.

Originally, Ye Jiao liked to feed the children very much. After feeding this one and the other with a small mouth open and waiting for you, it was very pleasing, but this time, Ye Jiao left the feeding thing to Mo Ma. .

Qi Yun couldn't help but grasped Ye Jiao's hand under the table, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Ye Jiao tilted her head, and whispered back in his ear: "I have always eaten dumplings... or let Mom Mo come, I'm afraid of choking them."

Qi Yun also remembered what would happen every New Year's Eve, so he stopped asking, but paid more attention to Ye Jiao.

When seeing Ye Jiao silently stuffing the copper plates into her purse again and again, Qi Yun couldn't help but think that the luck of her own lady is really rare in the world.

Wanting to go back and forth, Ye Jiao can make a tassel of copper again.

And this year when I was keeping the old age, the adults took the children together.

On the bed, Xu Bao bounced up and down, chuckling as he bounced, and it was rare for Ning Bao to not have a group of people around, but also stood and played with his brother and sister.

When the children were playing around, Qi Yun and Ye Jiao naturally lost the thoughts of love and affection, they just took care of them, and just passed the New Year.

When the fireworks went off outside and the firecrackers crackled, the children couldn't stand it after seeing the excitement and fell asleep. When they were sent back to their respective rooms, the husband and wife were exhausted.

Even if I lie in one place, the atmosphere is just right, but I want to do something but I am powerless.

Ye Jiao yawned, wearing only a tube top, her lotus arms stretched over to hug the man's waist, closed her eyes, first leaned sideways against his chest, and then she was afraid that her husband could not sleep well, so she rubbed. Moved to the man's neck, it was tightly attached.

Qi Yun couldn't help but grabbed the woman's soft waist and asked slowly, "Is the Jiao Niang cold?"

Ye Jiao was a little sleepy, and her voice was vague: "I'm not cold, but I'm afraid you are cold."

Recently, things have been busy, Ye Jiao has a lot of things, and Qi Yun is not touching the ground, and the two don't spend much time together.

The little ginseng can only hug him tightly while sleeping to make up for him, so as not to get sick.

Although Qi Yun didn't know that this was the only way to replenish his body, Wenxiang Nephrite was always good for him, so he hugged Ye Jiao closer, and said in a low voice, "Sleep well, in two days we will Go to see the lanterns in the city."

Ye Jiao replied and smiled, desperately wanting to go.

Actually speaking, I liked this lantern when I first saw it, but when I saw it a lot, it wasn't as fresh as it was at the beginning, but Ye Jiao liked to do something with Qi Yun very much.

She likes making dumplings and watching lanterns, even if she just stays in one place like this now.

After all, I like this person in my heart.

Two days later, Qi Er's family drove into the city in a carriage.

This time they took three children with them, and there were more people serving them. Instead of using the small carriage of the Qi family, they used the big one that Qi Yun made when he returned home. Some.

An ordinary carriage uses one horse, and this one needs two horses to be able to move. In addition, the carriage is stable and expensive, and it is very eye-catching after going out.

There are quite a few people who know this car, and when they see it, they know that it is Qier's family.

Now there is no need for the Qi family to deliberately keep a low profile. The big limelight of Jinbian has been out, and there is no need to hide and tuck in a carriage, so this trip is particularly comfortable.

When I entered the city, it was already night, and the frame of the car slowly stopped outside the Qijia Drugstore.

After Qi Yun got out of the car, he helped Ye Jiao down and said: "There are many people looking at the lanterns ahead. The carriage first stopped in the backyard of the pharmacy, and we walked in."

Ye Jiao replied, and when she stood firm, she stretched out her hand to hold Ruyi in her arms, while Qi Yun held Ning Bao.

Originally Xu Bao wanted to let his parents hug him, but he also knew that his younger siblings were young, and he could not rob them, so he didn't speak.

Ning Bao kissed him when he got out of the car, and asked Ruyi to hug Xu Bao, so he made Xu Bao smile.

When they walked into the crowd to see the lantern, the three dolls couldn't remember the things next to them. They only felt that their eyes were not enough. When they looked from the left to the right, their big eyes were wide.

Even if Xu Bao has seen it before, I still remember it clearly, but in the end it is the child's character, and he is willing to look at these shiny and bright, Xu Bao seems to be happier than anyone now.

He also guessed a few lantern riddles. Most of the lantern riddles tested were quick wit. Younger dolls didn’t know much, and it was normal if they couldn’t guess. Xu Bao was always happy, even if he didn’t guess it, he wouldn’t be angry. I was extremely happy, and I had to carry the lantern I won by myself and lift my chin. I was so happy.

Such a good temper made Ye Jiao smile, and said to Qi Yun: "Xu Bao is probably the least worrying child."

Smart, sensible, and the most important thing is to be open. Such a temperament can always find a way to make yourself happy.

Qi Yun also nodded, looking at Xu Bao, his eyes especially gentle.

If you don't be a parent, you don't know your parents' favor. Now as a father, Qi Yun knows what it means to be a father.

He doesn't ask the children to become dragons and phoenixes, he just hopes that they can have peace and joy.

As he was thinking, Qi Yun heard Ye Jiao's "Huh".

He couldn't help but stop, followed Ye Jiao's line of sight, and then saw a familiar stall.

There are a lot of people around, and there is a big shelf in the back, with many large and small objects on it. The biggest one is a lantern on the top. Because this year is the Year of the Goat, the lantern is a cute sheep shape. lovely.

As for the stall owner, Qi Yun also had the impression that it was the Guanpu stall owner they met when they first met Chu Chengyun a few years ago.

His off-pumping is different from others. It is not to determine whether you will win or lose after sprinkling copper coins, but to put a lot of small balls in a box, reach out and touch them, and see what gifts you will get by color.

The last time I saw this stall, it was four years ago. That time Chu Chengyun had very bad luck. He spent a lot of money but never touched it. On the contrary, Ye Jiao was very lucky. He gave a fan to Chu Chengyun for comfort.

Qi Yun didn't know whether Chu Chengyun left the fan, but this stall made Qi Yun feel very familiar.

But for the stall owner, the oncoming people made his back sweat.

It stands to reason that he has seen countless people in four years, and he never remembers the guests of Yimenzhiyuan so clearly.

However, someone like Ye Jiao who almost "ransacked his stall" is really rare in a hundred years. It is enough to be unforgettable once you encounter it. In addition, Ye Jiao is beautiful, and his eyebrows are especially crooked when he smiles. It's easy to remember, the stall owner recognized her at a glance.

Before Ye Jiao could speak, the stall owner cried and said, "This lady, can you let it go this year?"

Ye Jiao blinked and hugged Xiao Ruyi's hand tightly, with a smile on her face: "Just for fun, I'll just give the money."

The stall owner still looked bitter, and looked at Ye Jiao eagerly.

Little Ginseng didn't want to embarrass him. He also knew that he scared others last time, and thought that he would eat dumplings casually. The fun of playing with such luck is actually much less.

She didn't want to be difficult, so she thought about it.

But at this time, Ruyi stretched out her hand and pointed directly at the lantern in the shape of a lamb hanging on it. She said with a voice, "Mother, I want it."

Ye Jiao looked up, then looked down at Ruyi, and said with a smile: "I have to win this by myself, I can't buy it."

Ruyi looked at Ye Jiao and then at the stall owner, with a soft voice: "Ruyi wants it."

The child was wearing a fur-collared cloak today, the satin was red, and a circle of white fur was around the collar, and the little face was more cute and pretty.

Although the stall owner was afraid of Ye Jiao, he still liked such a cute milk doll.

The guy on the side also said to the stall owner: "This lady is lucky, she can't be a child and she's lucky. It was a coincidence last time."

After thinking about it, the stall owner also felt that he would not be so back, so he said to Ye Jiao: "Since the girl likes it, why don't the madam let the girl try to play?"

Ye Jiao was happy when she played by herself, but she would inevitably think more about playing with the doll she is holding now.

This level is said to be a game, but it is actually a gambling on luck.

Ruyi is still small, you can do whatever you want, but it is enough. You can't touch it like Chu Chengyun before, and it's yourself that suffers in the end.

So Ye Jiao looked at Ruyi's eyes and gestured a finger to her: "Mother let Ruyi go to play, but Ruyi promised to touch one. If you can't touch it, okay?"

Although Ruyi is a little girl, she has always been decisive, and immediately nodded and said softly: "I know, just one."

Ye Jiao also felt that she couldn't just let Ruyi play. Liu told her that treating her child would be a good bowl of water, so Ye Jiao looked at Xu Bao Ningbao again: "You also come and try with your sister. "

Xu Bao immediately responded, smiling at Ruyi and said, "If your brother gets the lantern, give it to Ruyi."

Although Ning Bao was not in high spirits, since Ruyi liked it, he also nodded.

Ruyi's eyes were staring straight at the lantern, and she put her little hand in front of her, and huffed, rubbing her little hand, looking very decent.

Qi Yun didn’t know who she learned this from, but looking so cute, he couldn’t help but reach out and touched Ruyi’s little head, and the stall owner found out that the man next to him who was dressed in black and could not even see his face was actually with him. This lady is a family.

It's just that the stall owner didn't have the mind to distinguish who they were, so he shook the box in his hand and handed it over.

Xu Bao was the first one to pass by. Mrs. Mo picked him up, Xu Bao reached in and touched one.

Black ball.

Xu Bao immediately raised his head to look at the stall owner. The stall owner who was originally worried was relieved, thinking that the lady's luck might not have been passed on to the child, and he smiled and said: "It's a pity, young master, this A black ball has no color."

This made Xu Bao a little disappointed, but not too disappointed, but looked at Ning Bao excitedly.

Xiao Ningbao disappointed Xu Bao. The little meaty hand still felt a black ball. He didn't even look at it. He threw it back into the box, turned his head and buried his face in Qi Yun's arms.

It is rare for Qi Erlang to see his younger son angry, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to pat his back and coaxed him with a burst of laughter.

At this moment, Ye Jiao held Ruyi firmly with both hands and stretched forward to let her touch the ball.

And in her heart, Ye Jiao has already begun to figure out how to comfort her little daughter. Although Ruyi has a lively and decisive temperament, as long as she has just promised not to touch it, she will definitely recognize it, but the child is young. It must be comforted.

Ruyi clasped his hand again, clenched his fist to encourage himself, and then put his little hand into the box.

She was extra cautious. She only had one chance. Xiao Ruyi took it very seriously. After mixing her hands twice, she took it out.

Because children have small hands, even a small ball cannot be fully grasped, and the color can already be seen when the hand is pulled out.

Because Qi Yun happened to be blocked by Ruyi's fur collar, he couldn't see what she touched.

Ye Jiao looked down, a little surprised in her eyes.

However, Ruyi held the ball tightly and looked at the stall owner with big eyes.

Then, I heard the sound of the stall owner taking a breath of air-conditioning, and then I saw his eight-character Hu Du drooping down, with some self-defeating voice in his voice: "Red ball...one red ball, one golden sheep lantern."

The young man was shocked, and then he was stared at by the stall owner.

Who says good luck is not inherited?con man!

The author has something to say: Liu, who is brainstorming a big show: Mengwu girl is really a good woman

Father Qi, who also had a big show of brain supplement: Yes, yeah, not easy, not easy

Qi Ming: ...???

Ruyi: I want a lantern, I have a lantern

Ye Jiao: Ruyi is awesome

Chu Chengyun: ...all watching what I do!
