Lady of Fortune, Jiao Niang

When Tie Zi went to find Qi Yun, Guan Shi had already left.

At this moment, Qi Yun was opening the ledger and looking at it, his expression calm, only occasionally took a sip of the tea.

Seeing Tiezi coming in, Qi Yun pointed to the food box on the table, and said, "You can eat the fermented rice balls brought by Qin Guanshi."

Originally, Tiezi wanted to tell Qi Yun clearly about He Xiaosu, but when Qi Yun said that, he swallowed back what he was about to say, sat down at the table honestly, opened the food box and took it. Take out the fermented rice balls and eat them in one bite at a time.

The quicksand bag just now was still full, and now the fermented rice balls were eaten again, which made Tiezi feel a little panicked.

But if you can let go of your own affairs, you still have to talk about the master's affairs, so Tie Zi swallowed Yuanzi in his mouth and told Qi Yun about Ye Jiao's going out.

Qi Yun nodded, his expression was flat, and he was not surprised. He just said, "Whether you're going out for a walk, you can tell me in front of you. Bring a few more people. Don't work hard enough to be a lady."

If Ye Jiao wants to go out alone, Qi Yun will definitely follow him. It used to be a time when he was not fit to walk around. Now that Qi Yun is much healthier, he always picks up Ye Jiao.

However, if someone accompanies Ye Jiao, Qi Yun rarely goes out, even if he wants to follow, but Qi Erlang also knows that he should give his wife some time.

Tiezi replied, looked down at the bowl that he had eaten clean, hesitated and stood up.

Qi Yun saw that Tiezi had something to say, so he closed the account book in his hand and looked at Tiezi and said, "If you have something to say, don't hesitate."

Tie Zi naturally knew Qi Yun's temper, and said: "Master, I want to marry Xiaosu."

Qi Yun was taken aback when he heard the words. He obviously didn't expect that he was waiting for such a sentence. He couldn't help but raised his head and looked at Tiezi and asked, "Have you discussed this with Xiaosu?"

This made Tiezi couldn't help but think of everything that had just happened. He just fell to his knees on the ground, with a slight pain, but his face was full of smiles: "I said that, Madam also knows."

Even if Qi Erlang is not a master of love, he has never thought about love between men and women, but he knows Tiezi and Xiaosu, and after a little thought, he said: "Xiaosu is young and used to listen to you, you said She believes whatever she does. It doesn't matter if she nods her head, she has to nod her head."

In Qi Yun's view, Xiaosu is full of eyes and only her own sweetheart, even if Tiezi has liked her for so many years, Xiaosu can't see it.

As for what they said between the two, Qi Yun didn't ask too much, because he knew that they were a good match, Tiezi had a good character, Xiao Su was simple and simple, which was naturally a good thing, but Qi Yun would not nod for Ye Jiao.

He looked at Tiezi and said slowly: "Jiaoniang has always loved Xiaosu. When she is a younger sister, even the next thing can be let go. However, Jiaoniang will definitely show Xiaosu a close look at marriage events. If you are true If you have the heart, just treat her well. Whenever the girl nods, I will agree."

Hearing this, Tie Zi didn't feel disappointed, because he knew that Qi Yun and Ye Jiao were thinking about Xiaosu. After all, the woman was always passive when it came to marriage. Even if Qi Yun believed him, he would not be full of words. .

Since it is for the sake of Xiaosu, Tiezi is also happy.

And in his opinion, as long as Xiaosu doesn't marry another person, this is excellent, and it's okay to wait a little longer.

Tiezi agreed with a smile, then bowed, and ran out to prepare the carriage for Ye Jiao to go out.

On the second day, when Ye Jiao saw Tiezi, she didn't mention the matter. She just looked at Tiezi carefully, then turned to look at Xiaosu, and asked Tiezi to go back to serve Qi Yun. Just pulled Xiaosu's hand in the carriage.

On the carriage, the fellow rider is Mengshi.

Since Meng's marriage with Qi Ming, the two have had a good time mixing oil, but even if they are a bunch of married couples, they can’t do nothing. After a few days, Qi Ming will return to work in the Yamen, and Meng will also start to take charge of the family affairs.

Even though father Qi and Liu clan are still there, but the two elders have never intervened in their son’s housework, and completely regarded himself as a temporary residence, and just be happy every day. Even if Meng clan asks Liu clan’s housekeeping, Liu clan just smiles Speaking of a few words, I never interfere with specific matters.

This made Meng's heart relaxed, but he also had to work a little bit.

Fortunately, when he was in the Meng family, the Meng clan used to take charge of the house. At the moment, he was just reusing what he had learned before. In addition, the population of Qi Ming’s rear house was simple and the servants were all taken care of. Soon you will be familiar with it.

After getting a little familiar, the first thing she did was to see Ye Jiao.

With a smile on his face, Meng's Wen, who has already turned the woman's hair into a bun, said: "I haven't seen the Dong family's wife yet. My sister-in-law knows her well, so I can get along well if I want to."

Ye Jiao nodded and said with a smile: "She is Lan, she is very refreshing and transparent. She is in the medicinal material business. Not long after she came, it is rare to make good tea."

Meng clan smiled and nodded, then slightly got up, sat next to Ye Jiao, and took Ye Jiao's hand to talk to her.

Although the two had known each other before, at that time, they hadn't been close, and the relationship was not considered close, but now it is different. They are wives and naturally they have to get closer.

Ye Jiao also smiled and squeezed towards her. When she got off the carriage, Ye Jiao said: "Wait for us to throw pots together. You are making a lot of progress now. I don't know who will win and who will win."

Meng's smile was soft: "Naturally it is my sister-in-law, I am still very early."

"You know how to coax me."

"Zhilan is all sincere."

Ye Jiao smiled and pulled her off the carriage, and the two of them walked towards the pavilion together.

The scenery here is very good. At first glance, a maple leaf is fiery red, as if it has burned to the sky, and the pavilion is located in the maple forest, and the layout is particularly elegant.

Because this was the backyard of Zhuangzi bought by Qi Yun, no outsiders came, and it was very clean.

Shi Shi and Dong Shi were already sitting inside. Seeing Ye Jiao and Meng Shi coming, they got up, smiled and greeted them to go in and sit.

At this time, the tea made by Dong's was already placed on the table. After seeing the ceremony, Meng took a sip, and felt that his mouth was full of fragrance. In addition to the fragrance of tea, there was also a floral fragrance, which was particularly good for the mouth.

Among the few people, the Meng Shi Shi has always been smart, and the Dong is a business lady, who is used to observing words and colors. Although Ye Jiao treats people with sincerity and never hides her, the other three like her very much, and they speak everything. Be kind and warm up soon.

Ye Jiao brought a box of dim sum, which matched the flowery tea.

Naturally, someone came over and arranged things for throwing pots, and in the pavilion, Shi mentioned: "There has been no war in the court for a while, I think I can relax for a while."

Liu Rong is in the Ministry of War and Qi Ming is in the Privy Council. If the court is stable and there is no war, it will be good for them.

The business of Qi Yun and Fang Li also needs peace in the world, the more stable the better.

Meng Shi smiled and nodded, and said warmly: "This is excellent. We can relax when they are free. It is a good thing not to worry about it. Ordinary people can gather together."

As soon as the words came out, the ladies nodded.

For them, mate and family are important, but people need some time to relax, and always have time for themselves.

Ye Jiao remembered something and looked at Shi Shi: "I went to your orchard to look for you last time, but I didn't see it. I said you left in a hurry, but what's the trouble?"

Shi Shi smiled and shook Ye Jiao's hand and said, "I have new eyes on a Zhuangzi, and I am going to buy it. Now there are so many goods coming and going, so I wanted to buy a new Zhuangzi and fight hard. The fruits that are sold are now just eaten and given as gifts."

Ye Jiao is not a woman who doesn't understand anything. Having been with Qi Yun for a long time, she can understand a little bit about business matters. Hearing this, he guessed: "You are looking for Zhuangzi in Linhe?"

Shi nodded and said, "Well, I should find Linhe."

Although Shi's current orchard is also by the river, it is still some distance away and difficult to carry. Even with the help of boats on the Qi Yun river, the land still depends on carts and horses.

In the past, Shi only wanted to set up the orchard to support herself, but now she is going to get married, even if Liu Rong’s salary is enough, but it is probably because people want to start a family, they have to run. This is true for men and women. The same is true. Originally, Shi's only wanted to do something without a single pair, but now the Shi clan has to manage it well.

She looked at a Zhuangzi in Linhe.

Seeing that Ye Jiao was about to speak, Shi Shi smiled and said warmly: "You don't need to bother Jiao Niang with this matter. I have found Zhuangzi, who belonged to the former Doctor Youwu. Now their whole family has another place to go. This place is empty. When it came out, I went to buy it."

The Dongs and Shis have met several times, and the Dongs are also going to come. The things in the capital are almost heard. Hearing that he has speculation in his heart, but his face is smiling: "This is a good thing, it deserves a good wine."

Ye Jiao said with a smile, "Good tea is fine."

Dong Shi laughed and poured another cup for Ye Jiao.

When they heard about Doctor Youwu, Meng clan felt a little emotional.

In fact, she has known Shi's family a long time ago, even though she was only a business lady before, but Shi's long-sleeved good dancer, who is a good person, can often see her at some tea parties.

But at that time, Meng thought that she was just a woman who had been harassed by the family, and she was decisive enough to get along, but didn't think much about it.

Even on the day of marriage, Meng did not expect any follow-ups even when she heard from her mother-in-law that Shi had counted the daughters of Doctor Youwu in person.

It wasn't until a few days ago that Dr. Youwu fell in his family, and the Meng clan knew that the Shi clan was good.

The woman looked light and calm, but she was determined to do what she said, which was really unusual.

Meng could not help but look at Ye Jiao, and felt that his sister-in-law seemed to be pure and kind, no different, but take a closer look, whether it is the empress Meng who has the city in heart, the wise and bright Princess Huaning, and the exquisite face. Ye Jiao's Dong family, or the determined and deep Shi family in front of him, or Meng family himself, Ye Jiao's friends gathered together, but Ye Jiao looked different.

They all have their own calculations, it seems that they have been carved into their bones, but Ye Jiao is different, she is comfortable, but very transparent, but attractive.

Meng clan couldn't help but smile, so he pulled Ye Jiao to throw the pot.

When playing around, Meng Shi put aside his thoughts as cost-effective, and even if he was joking with Ye Jiao, he was happier than ever before.

For a few days, the Meng clan would go to find Ye Jiao, sometimes to see the maple leaves and admire the chrysanthemums, sometimes just to sit at Qi Yun’s mansion, look at the three children, talk with Ye Jiao, and feel at ease. of.

But this made Qi Ming somewhat helpless.

The newlyweds of other people, Yaner, can’t get together, but her own wife is very stable. It’s not that Meng clan doesn’t like him. On the contrary, Meng clan is very pleased with him, but because of this joy, he wants to help. Qi Ming handles everything well.

This made Meng Clan often have to look at the account books when he was at home, or ask the housekeeper, and finally had time to spare, and then went out to talk to Ye Jiao.

Qi Ming took advantage of the fact that he had just finished eating, and before Meng Shi went to check the account, he reached out and gently grasped Meng Shi's wrist.

Meng's face blushed, even if he had done something closer, but Meng was still a little bit ashamed, and couldn't help earning lightly, and whispered: "What do you do?"

Qi Ming was also young and embarrassed in his heart, but he leaned forward and said to Meng's family: "Lady, I will rest tomorrow, why don't you leave it to me for one day, how about we go see the maple leaves together?"

Meng's had actually seen Maple Leaf a long time ago, and there is nothing new about it.

But what he did with Qi Ming was different, and Meng Shi nodded, and his smile brought out some joy.

At this time, Meng took out a purse from his sleeve, hesitated, first sent it to Qi Ming, but quickly took it back.

This made Qi Ming a little curious, so he reached out and took it, turned it over, and saw the red maple leaf embroidered on it.

It's just that Qi Ming has seen a lot of ordinary purses, but the embroidered ones are so rough that they can still be seen first time.

When you open it, you can see that the petals of various colors are stuffed inside, with a sweet fragrance, and the faint fragrance of Chinese medicine.

He couldn't help but looked at Meng Shi and asked, "Is this Zhilan doing this?"

Meng Shi hesitated and nodded.

In fact, she has been doing it for a long time. She embroidered the maple leaves above. It’s just that Meng Wu is good at everything. She is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is very familiar with poems and songs. , It rarely embroiders.

This time it was because Ye Jiao and Dong both knew medicinal materials. They said that they would raise their bodies in the autumn. They gave her some medicinal petals, saying that it’s good for me to carry them around. Meng made a purse. Put the petals on as a sachet to give to Qi Ming.

But just because the embroideries on it are not good-looking, Meng Shi has been afraid to take it out.

At this moment, I saw Qi Ming holding his purse in a daze. Meng thought he was disgusted, so he pursed his lips and stretched out his hand to grab it, but saw Qi Ming hide away, fearing Meng’s repentance, and neatly put his purse. Put it on.

After wearing it, he smiled at Meng and said, "It's great, I also have something that a lady made. I used to only look at my second brother and Brother Xiao, but now it's better, I also have lady pain."

As soon as he said this, Meng understood Qi Ming’s thoughts, his face was even redder, a woman with a calm mind and a sharp mouth, but now she can’t say a word, just stare at him, thinking about not watching tonight I’ve gotten an account. I helped Xianggong study ink when he was studying. It’s a pleasure to come.

But at this time, Ye Jiao was also using petals, but instead of stuffing them in a purse, she scattered them directly in the tub.

Behind the screen, there was still heat on the bath tub. Ye Jiao was pulling his sleeves and spreading while saying: "Msang Gong, you are weak, there are two kinds of medicinal flowers in it that are stronger. You will put them in later. In the tub, smoke it for a while to absorb it."

Qi Yun had always trusted Ye Jiao's medical skills, so he nodded, looked up at the faint figure behind the screen, and said warmly: "I've written it down, Jiao Niang, you wash first, I'll wait for you."

Ye Jiao responded, and then put the basket aside, took off her clothes, and stepped into the bathtub.

But Qi Yun immediately lowered his head, coughed lightly, and calmed down. Then he said, "How did you think about Xiaosu before?"

Ye Jiao took the cloth towel and teased the water, and heard the words: "Xiaosu's temperament is becoming more and more like me. She believes it in her heart, and she will say it out of her mouth. She is happy. I will naturally not object, but I still want to Wait a minute, Mom said Xiaosu is still young, and she will wait two more years to get married before she is stable."

Qi Yun felt that this was reasonable, so he should come down and talk about another thing: "The shipyard is almost ready. In a while, he can build ships and try to go to sea. The court will give a lot of money. Convenient and more secure."

Ye Jiao blinked in the screen, knowing that this was a major event.

Qi Yun has always wanted to expand his business, but the dynasty has developed commerce and ordinary industries, and it is not easy to take food from others, so he can only find another way out.

The vast sea is the place Qi Yun wants to explore.

What's rare is that he didn't know when he actually got Chu Chengyun's support. With the emperor's approval, this trade is a steady profit.

When Ye Jiao was about to speak, he heard Qi Yun continue: "This time I just tried to catch some seafood. I think I can have fresh things to eat after a while."

Little Ginseng couldn't help but laughed, his voice soft and waxy: "This is such a big event, Xianggong, you said it seems to be just for me to add dishes."

Unexpectedly, Qi Yun's voice soon came in from the other side of the screen: "The things that Jiao Niang likes are big things, and I will naturally do my best."

As soon as he said this, Ye Jiao was silent.

Qi Yun thought she was bathing intently and didn't want to disturb, but at this moment, he heard the sound of water, and then he saw Ye Jiao lying on the side of the bath tub, looking out of the screen, and then smiled with crooked eyebrows: "Msang Gong , Where are the children?"

Although Qi Erlang didn’t know what she was asking about what the children were doing, she immediately replied: “The stone fell asleep, and Ruyi stayed with his mother. Ning Bao and Xu Bao played with the little prince for a long time today. Fell asleep."

Ye Jiao gave an "um", but still looked at him, only a pair of clear eyes were revealed, and her voice was soft: "Miangong, come."

Qi Yun buckled the book he was looking at on the table, got up and walked behind the screen: "But you want to wipe your back?... Jiao Niang, what are you doing by pulling my clothes?"

"Isn't it good to wash together? You have to soak the left and right petals, I will help you."

"can……"

"Ok?"

"I mean, of course, of course good."

And this petal is useful, especially when the heat is steamed, and it is matched with the right amount of exercise to activate the body and mind, and it seems to be absorbed better.

It's just that this method is tiring, the little ginseng thinks that he should be more cautious in the future.

After a few more days, it was Ye Jiao's birthday.
