Value peace

Chapter 264

That day, Fang Shaoqin was wearing a lake-colored undercoat, a sky-blue underskirt, and a jade pendant with a red phoenix and a rising sun hanging from her waist. As she walked, she swayed slightly, appearing and disappearing between the folds of the skirt.

This time, the people who came were all young people. Although separated by generations, there were not so many taboos about laughing and joking.

Qi Man's daughter-in-law smiled and said, "My eldest nephew is indeed a noble daughter from Xizhao. Look at her beauty, none of us in Yandi can match her."

Fang Shaoqin pursed her lips and smiled: "Look at what my aunt said. Marry a chicken as a chicken, and marry a dog as a dog. When I arrive at the Qi family, I will be the daughter-in-law of the Qi family. It was just yesterday that Xizhao your daughter."

Gu Xiyan, who was leaning on the pillow, looked at Fang Shaoqin with a smile that was not a smile: "That's right!"

Fang Shaoqin avoided her gaze, and walked to the cradle to look at the child with his head down.

Duan Yingluo took a few steps forward, and put her hand on the cradle lightly, as if shaking the child.

The outline of the child is strikingly similar to Qi Hao...not like Fei'er, but more like the Fang family, delicate and graceful, like a girl...

The thought flashed, and tears welled up in his eyelashes.

She blinked hurriedly.

At this time, if a drop of tears really falls, I don't know what gossip will spread among relatives.

Fortunately, Qi Man's daughter-in-law asked about Gu Xiyan's "three-day ceremony" tomorrow: "Wei's family is far away, and my brother is a bit early, I'm afraid people from grandma's family will not be able to catch up!"

"Yeah!" Gu Xiyan nodded and smiled, "Things have been prepared a long time ago, people must not be able to catch up, so we have to wait for the full moon ceremony."

Qi Qu's daughter-in-law said with a smile: "Or, we helped, it's the same!"

Everyone was startled, and then they all agreed.

Fang Shaoqin also talked and laughed with everyone, and then got up to leave: "Auntie, I heard that Madam Yi is not feeling well, I want to go and see!"

"That's what it should be!" Gu Xiyan said with a smile, "She has served grandma her whole life, it is also the grace of the masters that you go and have a look. If there is any medicine missing, just come to me to get it."

Fang Shaoqin bowed his knees with a smile and thanked him.

Gu Xiyan smiled at Yunshang who was at the side: "You help me send off the youngest mistress."

Yun Shang went away in response.

* * * * * *
"Fang Shaoqin went to see Nanny Yi?" Mrs. Wei was standing at the glass window watching the craftsmen building the roof.

Yun Chang answered "Yes" and said, "Young Madam's place is full of guests, I have to rush over to serve...Madam, do you have any other orders!"

Madam Wei turned around and said, "Young Madam is still breastfeeding the child herself?"

This matter cannot be concealed.

Yun Chang nodded.

Mrs. Wei hummed softly, and said coldly, "You go!"

Yun Shang hurriedly bent her knees and left.

Bao Niang smiled from the side: "Ma'am, Aunt Gao also said that it is good for the young lady to feed herself, both for children and adults."

Mrs. Wei sighed, and said: "But in this way, I'm afraid it will be difficult to conceive for a while."

"Ma'am!" Qin Niang laughed, "Look at our brother Tun, how good-looking he is. If it weren't for the young lady's good mending, how could it be like this. She just gave birth, take advantage of this opportunity to raise her for two years, and she will be born again soon." Not too late!"

Mrs. Wei didn't respond, and said, "Go and see, what did Fang Shaoqin do with Mother Yi?"

* * * * * *
Juzhengshang was divided into East Kua Yuan and West Kua Yuan.The East Kua Courtyard is designed to accommodate those who have errands around the masters, while the West Kua Court House is home to some low-status servants or servants who have simply been driven here because they made a mistake, which is quite mixed.

Because it was morning when they came, the people in the Xikuan courtyard either hid in the house and did not come out in order to avoid it, or they went to various courtyards to work as errands.So when Fang Shaoqin entered, the yard was empty, only four or five young children were squatting in the middle of the yard, playing with fish around a broken barrel.

Seeing someone coming in, the children raised their heads.

A slightly older man stood up and ran over courteously: "Ma'am, who are you looking for?"

The child's clothes were patched, but clean.

Nanny Shi laughed and said, "We're looking for Nanny Yi!"

The child pointed to the low wing door not far away: "Hey, it's right there!"

The two pushed the door in.

It is talking about a house, but it is actually just a corner built by a long and narrow alley. A bed with a door panel leans against the wall.

Hearing the sound, Nanny Yi, who was lying on the bed, raised her head covered with silver hair with difficulty.

Seeing that it was Fang Shaoqin, she couldn't help but burst into tears, and struggled to sit up: "Eldest young mistress, why is it you?"

Fang Shaoqin smiled and said, "Grandmother is worried about you, let me take a look."

It was Nanny Shi who walked to the bed and helped Nanny Yi up.

Since Mrs. Xu fell ill that day, Mrs. Wei said that Nanny Yi didn't take good care of her, so she was dragged to the corridor between Xianji Courtyard and Gongshun Courtyard, where she was beaten severely, and her legs were broken. It was broken, and the waist was also discounted... I am afraid that I will have to lie in bed for the rest of my life.

Nanny Yi leaned weakly on Nanny Shi's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Young Madam, how is Madam's illness?"

Fang Shaoqin's face was serious and he didn't say anything.Nanny Shi, on the other hand, said in a low voice: "...don't worry, the young master and the young mistress will personally wait on the bedside..."

Nanny Yi knew about this, so before Nanny Shi could finish her sentence, Nanny Yi hurriedly said: "Eldest young mistress, we are all dying people, we are not worthy of you...You and the eldest young master Let's go back to Peanut Alley and ask Master Fang..."

Fang Shaoqin showed a helpless smile: "... Yuguan disagrees, what can I do!"

While talking, Nanny Shi heard the sound of people walking and greeting each other in the yard.

It seems that there is no waiting here.

Nanny Shi hurriedly said in a low voice: "It's not convenient for us to come to you... It's really that the young lady is too cruel. The lady is sick, and the monthly bill has not increased. Now all the allowances are paid, and now the daily expenses still rely on pawnbrokers." What about our girl’s dowry!”

Nanny Yi widened her eyes.

This is why I came to find myself!
With Wei Zhengrong's personality, it's impossible for him and Mrs. Xu to leave the yard. What's the use of keeping those private money... Maybe someday it will be cheaper for Wei Zhengrong.

She sighed: "Young Madam, the things are under Madam Xu's bed."

When Brother Tun celebrated the three-day ceremony, the chief steward of the Wei Mansion in Yongzhou brought food for confinement and daily necessities for the children, but they couldn't arrive on time.

It was supposed to be a matter of her natal family, but it was the female relatives of the Qi family who came. Among them, there were two outsiders, one was the Han family, and the other was Liang Zhangzhu.

The Han family was invited by Gu Xiyan, but Liang Zhangzhu took the initiative to invite her.She brought a child's cloak, silver-red satin, embroidered with the pattern of plum, bamboo, orchid and three gentlemen, unlike ordinary children's cloaks, which are embroidered with auspicious patterns such as bats, so it is quite There are a few new ideas.

Liang Zhangzhu laughed and said, "Our aunt made this with her own hands."

The room was bustling with people, and it was not a place to talk, Gu Xiyan smiled and nodded, excitedly said: "Say 'thank you' to her for me!"

Later, Gu Xiyan and Qi Maosheng talked about this matter: "...Thanks to her remembering me... Let me have a thought, I don't feel that I am alone."

Qi Maosheng hugged her and kissed her temples: "Nonsense again, isn't there still me and the tenth day!"

Gu Xiyan hugged Qi Maosheng back, and said with a smile: "Because of you, I feel perfect!"

Brother Tun, who was lying in the cradle by himself, pouted and began to cry.

Gu Xiyan hurriedly left Qi Maosheng to coax the child.

After a few days, something happened in Qi Mansion.

When Grandma Wang of Xianjiyuan went out to visit relatives, the nuns of the second sect found that she was carrying a small roll of bank notes, all of which were 1000 taels, and there were three of them in total.

By the time Gu Xiyan knew to ask Duanniang to rush over to see what happened, Nanny Wang had already been beaten to the point where she was beaten more and more.The nanny who guarded the gate gave Duanniang all the people and things to bring back.

Gu Xiyan asked her, "Is she a white and fat nanny?"

That should be the mother Wang who took them to Huaiyuan to meet Mrs. Wei when he entered the mansion for the first time.At that time, she was working in the Xianji Courtyard, and it seemed that she was also someone Mrs. Xu could trust.

Duanniang nodded, and then pushed the rolled banknote in front of Gu Xiyan.

Brother Tun opened his eyes rarely, Gu Xiyan kept talking to him, so he just glanced at the bank note.

Her heart is like a mirror.

It seems that the life of Xianjiyuan is not easy, and this is thinking of countermeasures.

"Put your things away!" Gu Xiyan said indifferently, "I'll leave it to the nanny of the second sect. Whatever you want, just do whatever you want!"

Duan Niang went away in response.

"Wait," Gu Xiyan called to stop Duan Niang who was about to lift the curtain, "Tell Fang Shaoqin about this, and tell them that the house is a bit messy these days, so they put away their things and don't wander around. Wait In a few days, everything in the house will be cleaned up."

* * * * * *
Nanny Shi said anxiously: "Girl, what should I do?"

Fang Shaoqin smiled bitterly and looked at Mrs. Xu who was lying on the hospital bed: "You heard it too, let us not wander around... If we act rashly again, I'm afraid we will find excuses to get rid of it and hurry up!"

Nanny Shi felt a sense of powerlessness, and suddenly thought of Nanny Yi's words.

"Why don't you write a letter to Master Fang!"

Fang Shaoqin opened the long window and stared at the bare yard, and said sadly: "Shengjing is thousands of miles away, even if he wants to help us, it's beyond our reach! What's more, who else can we find to deliver the letter now!"

Nanny Shi couldn't help turning her eyes to Mrs. Xu, but she was surprised to see something glittering and translucent in the corner of Mrs. Xu's eyes.

Fang Shaoqin didn't pay attention to these, and murmured: "It's a good thing I was more careful, so I took some bank notes and went out to try it... It's an unknown thing, and it can be pushed cleanly. If I wear jewelry like Yuguan said Going out, I’m afraid things won’t be so simple. I have to find a way to get the account book at home, and see what is in the book and what is not in this bag of jewelry... If we find our house Come here, when the time comes, even if you jump into the Yellow River, you won't be able to wash it off."

Over there, Gu Xiyan was also telling Duanniang: "Think of a way to get them to get the account books... If they can secretly return it, return it... Don't push people into a hurry, push them hard. Leave her the line for everything. I hope, she won't be desperate... Now is not the time, just procrastinate if you can..."
