Ajiu

Chapter 26
Knowing that he was going to the South Garden, Lin Youhui frowned slightly, "There is water everywhere, and Ajiu likes to run around." The South Garden is a typical Jiangnan garden, with small bridges and flowing water everywhere.It's really unnerving for children to come to the water's edge.

Second Master Pei was also worried, "Yes, Ajiu ran too fast. My lady, let Ajiu follow me, I can catch up to her no matter how fast she runs."

Lin Youhui smiled, "It doesn't make sense. We just took the children to play because we didn't want to save face. Mr. Gong, don't stay too long, just leave early."

What does it look like when you hold a little girl at a men's party.

Second Master Pei nodded helplessly.

Although he nodded, he continued to chatter and explain in a long-winded manner, "Lady, when the nanny and maid are careless, it's better for you to watch Ah Jiu yourself."

Lin Youhui coquettishly said, "Do you still need to tell me? Mr. Xianggong, I am her mother, and I love her more than anyone else!"

Second Master Pei smiled and was speechless.

Ma'am, it's me who loves Ah Jiu the most.

On a bright summer day, Second Master Pei and Third Master Pei, with their wives and children, were invited to visit South Garden.Marquis Linjiang came out with his eldest son Chen Lingyun. He entertained Second Master Pei and Third Master Pei in the living room, Chen Lingyun and a nurse in charge named Zhen, and let Lin Youhui, Mrs. Xu and the children go to the small flower hall in Linshui. Waiting for tea, "The two aunts will rest for a while. Later, please go to the garden to have a look at the scenery." Chen Lingyun seemed to be the little master.

Madam Zhen is capable and concise, and the seats, tea, and maids are arranged in an orderly manner, and everything is in place.Although there are no housewives in the South Garden, they are still very hospitable.

Chen Lingyun called Lin Youhui and Xu's "aunt". He was older than the children of the Pei family, so Pei Qi and Pei Yu called him "cousin" politely. Smiling, called "table".

Ajiu combed a cute double bun, and was wearing a light autumn-colored shirt and skirt, with a few purple flowers swaying in the wind embroidered on the corners, which was playful and playful.The light autumn fragrance color is a very delicate color, reflecting her shiny and white skin, it is particularly refreshing and pleasant.

This is a happy little girl, and a pampered little girl.Her mother hugged her, her aunt smiled at her kindly, and her brothers surrounded her, accommodating her.

"It's about the same age as Awei." Chen Lingyun felt sad for no reason when he saw Ajiu with a sweet smile on his face.Awei is far away in the capital, so she doesn't know what's going on right now.

The small flower hall is facing the water, and outside is the lotus pond. The floating lotus leaves cover the entire lake surface, and the blossoming lotus flowers are pink or white, graceful and graceful, in various poses.A breeze blows, bringing bursts of fragrance, refreshing.

Ah Jiu saw such a beautiful scenery, how could she stay in the living room? "Huahua, Huahua!" She stretched out her small arms and pointed out the window, looked at Lin Youhui attentively, expressing that she wanted to go out to play.

Chen Lingyun winked and invited everyone to enjoy the scenery in the garden. Lin Youhui and Mrs. Xu looked at the very interested little Ajiu and readily agreed.

After leaving the small flower hall, the winding paths lead to secluded places, and the scenery is fresh and elegant. Ajiu smiled happily, and smiled flatteringly at Lin Youhui, "Let's go on my own." Lin Youhui knew her temperament, so he didn't force her, and let her go to the ground.

Pei Qi and Pei Yu pulled Ajiu one by one, not allowing her to run around, "Sister, there is water everywhere, follow brother." Ajiu smiled and nodded, very obedient.

The South Garden is very large, with winding paths leading to seclusion, lakes and mountains, small bridges and flowing water appearing from time to time, or Taihu Lake stones of various shapes, which are exquisite and elegant.Ajiu is used to Pei Erye and Lin Youhui, so she has a bit of appreciation. When she saw the tall and thin Taihu Stone, her eyes shone with excitement, "Thin, thin!" , Cang Yuan is simple and simple, the artistic conception is far-reaching, and the rhythm is clever, how valuable it is.

"Ajiu really has eyesight!" "Ajiu knew that Taihu Stone is skinny at such a young age!" The brothers praised Ahjiu one after another.

Seeing Chen Lingyun's curious gaze, Pei Qi smiled and explained, "My sister is not good at talking, but she is very smart and understands everything. Like this Taihu stone, she knows that 'thin, wrinkled, leaky, and transparent' are the top grades. , she is very appreciative."

Pei Qi's words were full of love and appreciation for her younger sister.

Also full of preference.Regardless of whether Ajiu can actually understand that much, anyway, in the eyes of the brothers, Ajiu is a psychic who understands everything.

Chen Lingyun was envious, "My younger sister is about the same age, and she is also very smart. It would be great if I could play with my younger sister like you."

Pei Qi said gently: "It's fine when you return to the capital."

Chen Lingyun smiled, the smile was very forced.

Back to the capital?how to return.The mother was sold once and her reputation was ruined. She said that she would never go back to the Linjiang Hou's Mansion, never in this life.As for myself, I got angry and slashed Mrs. Hou twice. If I go back to Beijing, I will be humiliated by her and can't be insulted by her. I can't say anything.

If Ah Wei can be picked up and the family of four can be reunited, why go back to the capital in disgrace?Living in the South Garden, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the scenery is excellent, there is no grandmother, no Mrs. Hou, how clean it is.

But, how can I get Awei out?Chen Lingyun was at a loss.

There is a small hill in the South Garden, on which there is a grand and spacious pavilion, with white walls and black tiles, clear and elegant.Sitting in the pavilion, you can have a panoramic view of the lake and mountains, and the breeze blows slowly, sending bursts of fragrance, which is comfortable and refreshing.

At the northwest corner of the lake is a stone boat, which is in the water on all sides, and there is a stone bridge at the head of the boat that communicates with the bank of the pool.This stone boat is exquisitely made, gorgeous and beautiful. Several actors in the boat wave their sleeves and dance, with melodious and elegant tunes.

With the sound of water, it becomes clearer and more pleasant to hear.

The Marquis of Linjiang sat in the pavilion with Pei Erye and Pei Sanye, listening to music and drinking, enjoying himself at ease.Marquis Linjiang is hospitable, Third Master Pei is good at talking, Second Master Pei is good at drinking, the three of them get together and each finds his place.

There was a burst of laughter like silver bells along with the wind, Mr. Pei became more energetic, what was little Ajiu looking at, smiling so happily? "You guys are naughty, I'll go down and have a look." Mr. Pei smiled and stood up.

Marquis Linjiang smiled, "Sister-in-law, please." Second Master Pei played with the wine glass in his hand, and smiled, "Children are not allowed to play in water." Third Master Pei agreed, "Yes, Second Brother, no water is allowed."

After Third Master Pei left, Marquis Linjiang pulled the chair closer to Second Master Pei and whispered something.There was shame on his face from time to time, but he had to bite the bullet and continue to ask.

Second Master Pei smiled slightly, "Brother is too worried. If Ling Zheng hasn't had an attack for a long time, he shouldn't have any intention of pursuing it." Mrs. Linjiang Hou has been silent for so long, it doesn't seem like she wants to mobilize the crowd and will not let her go.

"Brother is worried about whether she will let Ling Ge'er go, and she may be worried about whether brother will investigate and sell Ling Ge'er's biological mother." Second Master Pei reminded.

Mrs. Linjiang Hou suddenly became angry and sold Chen Lingyun's biological mother. Maybe she was also worried at this moment, worried that Linjiang Hou would scold her for being "specialist", "jealous" and "ignorant".

Lin Jianghou looked thoughtful, hesitating.

"Between husband and wife, it's best to have a discussion. After Xiongtai returns to Beijing, he can calmly discuss with Mrs. Zun. Maybe it will be bright." Second Master Pei said gently.

Linjiang Hou's eyes flickered, and he sighed, "Mr. Qiu, your wings are stiff."

Qiu's natal family Xingguo Gongfu, although the ancestors were the founding fathers of the country with the emperor Taizu, they are not very powerful now.None of the descendants of the Qiu family is outstanding, and they cannot support the family.

It was precisely because the Qiu family had no power that the Qiu family was still willing to marry even though the Marquis of Linjiang already had the eldest son.However, now the Qiu family has produced a powerful figure.

Qiu's younger sister entered the palace and gave birth to two princes one after another. She was favored day by day, first she was conferred the title of Xian Concubine, and in the spring of this year she was promoted to the title of Noble Concubine.With Concubine Qiu, the Qiu family is very different from before, and the Qiu family is also very different from before.

"Without the support of Concubine Qiu, how would the Qiu family dare to do such a thing?" Marquis Linjiang resented.

Knowing that she has a backer, and knowing that her husband's family dare not offend Concubine Qiu Gui behind her, they are so unscrupulous.The birth mother of the eldest son of the concubine, she sold it as soon as she said it, and acted vigorously.

Second Master Pei felt that he had nothing to say, so he just smiled and said, "Where is this between husband and wife? After returning to Beijing, brother will have a heart-to-heart talk with Mrs. Madam. There will be good news."

No matter how the Qiu family produces a concubine or nobleman, they still have to live day by day, right?She will not ignore you, and you should not underestimate her.You let her, she let you, is it difficult?

Marquis Linjiang shook his head, "I have nothing to say to her. Brother Pei, she has done such a thing, and I have broken my friendship with her."

Second Master Pei smiled slightly, "Why is this so?" He sat peacefully, leisurely playing with the clear porcelain wine glass in his hand, with a calm expression, as if he hadn't heard any unbearable privacy at all.

Linjiang Hou looked at the graceful and calm man in front of him, feeling ashamed of himself.He is two years younger than himself, but he has roughness in his chest, he is calm and calm, and he is not in a hurry when things happen.

"Brother Pei, I plan to send the dog son to accompany the tenth prince." Linjiang Hou said with confidence: "The tenth prince is the son of Empress Zhang, who has a noble status. The ten princes are not worthy of carrying shoes."

The Qiu family has a noble concubine, isn't it amazing?I'm going to curry favor with the queen!

Second Master Pei was speechless for a long while.

...Your family's bastard is accompanying the ten princes?Why?There are so many relatives and noble children in the court, but if there is no one else, what will happen.

The Marquis of Linjiang seemed to know what Second Master Pei was thinking, and he smiled triumphantly, "With Ling'er's current status, I can't do it. But what if Ling'er becomes the heir of my Marquis of Linjiang's mansion? Brother Pei, I only have Ling This son is the only seedling, and in the future, there will be no more sons."

The Marquis of Linjiang and his wife Qiu Shi didn't have much affection in the first place, and after this incident, they couldn't even get close.Therefore, Mrs. Linjiang Hou will not have a son in the future, and Chen Lingyun will be the only son.Although it is not easy for a concubine to inherit the title, it is not impossible to think about it. If you follow the way of the queen, nothing is impossible.The queen is His Majesty's original spouse, the prince's biological mother, and the most powerful woman in the harem.

It was very cool on the mountain, a gust of breeze blew by, Second Master Pei breathed the fragrance of lotus in the wind, feeling lonely in his heart.

Linjiang Hou looked at him with a smile on his face, waiting to hear his praise and appreciation.

Second Master Pei silently reminded himself, "This is the cousin of the third sibling, and this is the nephew of the father's savior." After reminding him several times, he pulled himself together.

"Brother, I'm afraid there will be a son-in-law soon." Second Master Pei said concisely.

The smile on Lin Jianghou's face froze, and he asked in astonishment, "Where did Brother Pei start talking about this?"
