Chapter 284 Panic

Zhao Ge's hometown has a big business, so it is not difficult to immediately clear out a yard to house Jin Xi.By the time Mr. Zhao Ge was talking to Qin Xiao, the Qiu family was already not far from Ningxiang Courtyard, and packed up another courtyard called Bixue Pavilion for Jin Xi to live in.

Jinxi didn't have much luggage, and there was nothing left after being burned by the fire.She was still worried about whether the ready-to-wear shops outside would be open as usual. If they were not open, then she would not even have a change of clothes today.

When she brought Qingxing and Haitang into the Bixue courtyard, all worries were instantly dispelled.Spring, summer, autumn and winter clothes, shoes and socks, matching sachets and purses, and jewelry are all neatly arranged. Dozens of boxes filled the entire main house without a place to stay.

"Madam is too polite! You are..." How did you do it?Jin Xi is so impressed with Qiu Shi now. Most people’s homes are in trouble, such as burglars and arson. Even if the housewife can concentrate on taking care of the big things, these small things will certainly not be taken care of. up.

Even if you can take care of it, how can you get it all in a hurry?This is not like the previous life she lived in, where everything could be delivered to her doorstep.All these clothes have to be sewn and made on the spot!
Seeing Jinxi's doubts, Qiu Shi smiled lightly, "These are the dowry of the Fourth Miss, and I won't be able to use it for the time being. The Fourth Miss is about the same size as the princess, so there is no need to change it. It is urgent, and the princess don't dislike it." That's good!"

What?The dowry of the fourth girl?It's no wonder that the colors and patterns are very happy, especially suitable for her status as a married woman now!
"This is so bad! The fourth girl's dowry was given to me, and the fourth girl's side..." Jin Xi suddenly didn't know what to say.

Qiu said with a smile: "The fourth girl is destined to be the eldest grandson of the He family in Luoyang, and she will marry at the end of the year. There are still four or five months to prepare. Don't worry, the princess, Mr. Ge will not lose the fourth girl. It can only get better than here!"

"Then I'll thank you first! Thank you, Miss Si!" Jin Xi gave Qiu Shi a deep salute, and couldn't help his nose sore.It feels good to have family members. Even if the dowry is used as a favor, at least the preparations are complete in advance, and someone will help you make arrangements, right?

It's not like her, like a lonely ghost, she finally prepared a few things, and even burned them all up!

This is the difference between people!

Sending Qiu away, Jin Xi touched the delicately embroidered clothes and sighed, "Categorize and memorize these clearly. When the fourth girl gets married, remember to make up twice for her!"

Haitang quickly nodded, but Qingxing looked at Jinxi puzzledly, "Twice the price to make up, isn't this gift too thick?"

The fourth girl's dowry is not light, just looking at the few boxes of jewelry, it costs tens of thousands of taels of silver, if you return double, how much silver will you get? !
Jin Xi gave a wry smile without explaining.Some things can be bought with silver, but some things cannot be exchanged for a mountain of gold!
These things are all exquisite, and it seems that a lot of thought has been spent on preparing them. When the four girls prepared these things, they were full of expectations and countless reveries.

Look at the bright red wedding dress with dragon, phoenix, auspiciousness and a hundred butterflies wearing flowers. It is said that Miss Zhao Si embroidered it by herself for several years. How many emotions have to be integrated into it? It suddenly became a wedding dress for her. Among them How can the loss be made up for by a few taels of silver?

I just hope that Miss Si is a transparent and open-minded person, so that she doesn't hold grudges against her!
When Qin Xiao entered the room, he saw Jin Xi fascinated by the bright red wedding dress hanging on the hanger, and he didn't even notice that he came in.

"What are you thinking about?" Qin Xiao walked over and stood behind her, resting his chin on her neck, and lightly pecked her earlobe.

Jin Xi turned around, ignoring his dirty and smelly body, hugged his waist tightly with both hands, pressed her face against his chest, and couldn't stop crying.After a while, he whimpered and said, "Is the day of our marriage going to be postponed?"

Qin Xiao frowned, "Who are you listening to nonsense? Tomorrow is a big day, and it's too late for you to regret it!"

"But..." Jin Xi choked up for a moment, and suddenly felt that she had already responded to the most popular word 'naked marriage' in her previous life. It was really a naked marriage. The clothes, jewelry and even the wedding dress were forcibly borrowed from Miss Zhao Si.As for the bridal chamber...

So far, there has been no movement in the Changping uncle's mansion, and they are talking about whether they have prepared a bridal chamber for them!

She and Qin Xiao are like two homeless ghosts, without even a decent place to live.

Is there such an unreliable and hasty wedding in this world?

Jin Xi lay in his arms and didn't speak, Qin Xiao suddenly understood her feeling at this moment, lifted her face, made her eyes meet his own, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, it's all me No, let you be wronged!"

For him, getting married means that two people can be together in a legitimate way.As long as the relationship is pleasing, the ritual rules are not important at all.But he ignored that for a woman, even if she is as free and easy as Jin Xi, she still hopes to have a perfect wedding.It doesn't need to be grand, full of red makeup, and half of the city's guests, but at least the feeling of home is a must.

Qin Xiao has never blamed himself like this before, it was his negligence.He could have bought a yard first and tidied it up as a bridal chamber, so why did he insist on making such a fuss with Uncle Changping, betting on who would give in?
For his own woman, what does it matter if he loses face?
Qin Xiao didn't speak for a long while, but the expression of guilt on his face became more and more serious, Jin Xi reached out and touched his haggard cheek that hadn't slept all night, and said distressedly: "I'll just ask casually, don't worry too much. "

Qin Xiao stretched out his hand to cover Jinxi's hand in his palm, and said with a soft smile, "Don't worry, I've already asked Tang Tiancai to prepare everything for the ceremonies. I'll go back to the Changping uncle's mansion in a while, and see if there are any other things over there." If something is not arranged well, there is still time to remedy it. Just rest well and get on the sedan chair when the auspicious time comes. Don't think about anything else!"

It's been a while, I don't think it's useless!Jin Xi nodded obediently, but lowered her eyelashes to hide the anxiety in her eyes.For some reason, Qin Xiaoyue patted her chest to reassure her, the more uneasy she became.

Qiu Shi was also uneasy. As the head of the family, she knew best where the Zhao Ge old mansion was broken into last night and what was lost.

If the loss was huge, she probably would have no other thoughts other than distress, but there was almost no loss, which made her feel restless.

Last night, seeing a group of people rushing in fiercely, the usually fierce guards and servants were so vulnerable that they ran away without a trace.And those women who were watching the night in the inner courtyard were not opponents, except for trembling, they simply asked and said nothing.

As long as you don't kill them, you can't wait to lead the way for the thieves.

It stands to reason that in such a situation, the thieves should first rush to Mr. Zhao Ge's study, where any calligraphy and painting would be enough for these people to live happily for half a lifetime.Even if they don't understand this, they must break into the bedrooms of each room in the inner house.Which master's jewelry is not worth thousands of taels of silver?

No matter how bad it is, the fourth girl is preparing to marry, and everything is of the highest quality. They are stacked in the box, and they don't even need to be searched. It is easier to carry the whole box with the lid on.

However, these thieves didn't even go to these places, and a group of people went directly to the Ningxiangyuan where Princess Leyi temporarily stayed.

It's also preparing for marriage, Princess Leyi's things are nothing compared to the fourth girl.If they went there to make money, these thieves are too stupid, right?

Those who ran away, Princess Leyi was hiding in the cave at that time, and when he went in to catch him, the group of people shouted in the courtyard and blocked the entrance of the cave.

What are they going to do?

The more Qiu Shi sat there, the more she thought about it, the more she couldn't understand it. She had never encountered such a complicated thing in her life.While thinking about it, Zhao Tingxuan suddenly rushed in with red eyes, crying, "Second Aunt!"

"You all go out!" Seeing Zhao Tingxuan like this, Qiu Shi was also taken aback, her first reaction was to kick out all the servants in the house.

She helped Zhao Tingxuan to sit down, seeing him crying silently with red eyes but not saying a word, she couldn't help shaking her head, and sighed, "I know Brother Xuan still can't let Princess Leyi go, but things are coming to an end This step, if you don’t let it go, you have to let it go, or you will be the one who makes it difficult.”

Zhao Tingxuan knew that Qiu's misunderstood, but his viscera seemed to be fried, he couldn't speak, he just kept shaking his head, "No! No!"

"That's not it?" Qiu Shi wondered inwardly, besides this, what else could make this heavenly nephew so disturbed?
"No!" Zhao Tingxuan couldn't say anything other than the word "no".With trembling hands, he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Qiu Shi.

Qiu made him so anxious that his mouth was about to bubble, he stretched out the letter and read it three times, his eyes darkened and he slid down the chair.

"Second Aunt!" Zhao Tingxuan was terrified, and he didn't care about the rules, he picked up Qiu Shi from the ground, screamed repeatedly and asked his servants to fetch the doctor.

Just as he put Qiu Shi on the bed and told her to lie flat, Qiu Shi took a long breath, woke up, grabbed the corner of the quilt to cover her mouth, and let out a low howl.

"Second aunt!" Zhao Tingxuan's eyes were red, and he grabbed Qiu's arm before he could speak.Qiu grabbed his sleeve with his backhand and cried, "Brother Xuan, it's such a big deal, come up with an idea, what should we do?"

"I..." Zhao Tingxuan was at a loss for words for a moment, he just felt that the sky was falling, so he rushed to Qiu's place in a daze, wanting to ask Second Aunt for advice, but he didn't expect Second Aunt to be more panicked than him.

Qiu said in a panic, "Your second uncle didn't come back from the palace, and your third and fourth uncles are in office. Such a big matter... I can't decide! Brother Xuan, what do you think should I do? Write to your third uncle first, he is close to the capital, tell him to come back quickly? No, you have to call your second uncle back quickly, and order people to enter the palace quickly..."

"Second aunt, the gate of the palace is closed, and the streets are under martial law." Zhao Tingxuan took a deep breath, clutched the letter in his hand fiercely, and said through gritted teeth, "Don't tell anyone about this. I'll go back as soon as I go. , you wait for my news!"

"Be careful!" Qiu Shi nodded vigorously, and now she didn't know what else to do besides nodding.

Such a big event is more terrifying than the sky falling!
