I steamed buns for the general

Chapter 26

"Qing Cui, our girl is not your girl's slave, please keep your mouth clean." Yue Ban frowned and looked at Qing Cui displeased.

Qing Cui gave her a blank look, and snorted coldly: "But you are just a slave just like us, and you are acting like a master. It is her blessing that our young lady let her do it. I don't know what is good or bad, but I really think of myself as a slave in the house." Miss, I don’t even look at my own virtue.”

Qing Cui is the most embarrassing girl in Qin Meng's room. Qin Meng's complexion was not good when she went back yesterday. Qing Cui didn't want her master to be wronged, so she came here in person early in the morning, just to embarrass the little nun who doesn't know what to do. Come in and have a look at the little nun Being weak is easy to be bullied, and even more presumptuous not to take Zhijin in his eyes.

Zhijin curled her lips, thinking that the general's mansion and the nunnery were full of these things.The Jiang family seemed to be a kind person, but the only young lady in the mansion couldn't understand her so much, she just came here yesterday and looked everywhere for her fault.

She shook her head, sighed and said nothing, and continued with her work.

But Yue Ban didn't intend to bear it. When she was sent to serve the girl, the old lady told the two sisters that they must treat the girl as their master and not be bullied by others. Now, it is obvious that the young lady is looking for their bad luck. She You can't let your girl be bullied.

"You are really shameless for what you said. Could it be that the nanny was beaten too lightly yesterday, so you don't know the severity if you don't have eyes?" Yue Ban angrily glared at Qing Cui, and reminded dissatisfied.

What happened yesterday can be big or small, but as the girl next to the young lady, she naturally knows that the nanny Li was beaten, and those around them naturally know about it, but she can't understand how this nun robbed her house as soon as she came to the house It's just the girl's limelight.

Being poked at the point by Yue Ban, Qing Cui's face inevitably turns green and white.She stomped her feet angrily, and wanted to curse again.

Zhijin glanced at her lightly, and said: "Winter is coming soon, where did you get the bamboo shoots? If the girl can buy bamboo shoots at this time, Zhijin will definitely share her worries."

Yue Ban also suddenly laughed, took the rolling pin from Qing Cui and handed it to Zhijin, and said to Qing Cui: "If Sister Qing Cui wants bamboo shoots, then Yue Ban can only go to Madam, Madam will definitely be able to buy fresh bamboo shoots piece."

"Well, you nun, if you don't know what to do, I will definitely tell the girl." Qing Cui's face was flushed, she was caught as a bully, she said harsh words, and ran away in a hurry.

Yueban sneered, thinking that this Qingcui is really idle. She didn't serve her master and came here to find bad luck in the early morning. She really didn't know what to do. It’s broken, and it’s not uncommon to give others a hard time on weekdays.”

"Go to work." Zhijin reluctantly smiled. She had to bow her head under the eaves. It's just a man of steamed buns.

I was mentally weak all day, and Zhijin had no idea of ​​doing other things. I was sleepy during the day, so I fell asleep, but I couldn't fall asleep at night. I fell asleep in a daze until midnight, and then dreamed of Master again. I dreamed about the fire, and this time I also dreamed about Jinghai's tragic death.

Tonight is Yuehui's night duty, and she was startled when she heard the movement. After waking her up, she was given some water and kicked out.The next morning she told Yue Ban about the matter, and Yue Ban was also surprised when she heard it.

And as the past few days passed, Zhijin's condition not only did not ease, but even worsened.

Although the general and his wife also asked in the daytime, but every time Zhijin fooled it, but Yue Ban was a little panicked, seeing that her master's spirit was getting worse and worse, she was also very worried in her heart.

After hesitating for a few days, she still decided to tell Jiang Shi, maybe Jiang Shi could give her some advice.

Before the Jiang family said anything, a servant in the palace suddenly sent an order to clean up the dust for the triumphant return of the Qin and Jin Dynasties. Officials of the fourth rank and above can bring their families to the palace to attend the banquet.

As soon as this imperial decree came out, there was a wave of waves in the mansions of officials all over the capital.Jiang had no choice but to prepare for entering the palace, shelved Zhijin's matter for the time being, and only asked Yue Ban to visit the doctor for consultation.

Anyone who has seen Qin Jin knows that his status is high, his appearance is handsome, his tall body is so powerful, and his imposing manner, even if the princes are noble nowadays, he will not be inferior in front of them .

Although Qin Jin came back from the battlefield, his prestige in the army is unmatched. In addition, the battle between the first prince and the second prince is now in full swing, which is an excellent opportunity for the generals who have come down from the battlefield. It is said that soft and hard don't eat, but I don't know which faction it is.Now the First Prince and the Second Prince's factions are interested in wooing her.Many officials tried their best to squeeze into the Qin family.

On the other hand, Qin Jin was 21 years old this year, went to war at the age of 13, fought countless victories, captured the leader of Rouran alive at the age of 19, and beheaded Tuyuhun Khan in one fell swoop before returning this time, forcing him to sign a covenant and dare not invade.The name Qin Jin was frightening in Rouran, Tuyuhun tribes and even Dawan. People in Fanbang trembled when they heard Qin Jin's name.

Qin Jin not only has proud achievements, but also his own handsomeness and momentum are sought after by the daughters of the boudoir.Returning triumphantly three years ago, the 19-year-old boy Lang is handsome and extraordinary. He rode a tall horse and passed the main street of the capital. His posture, appearance, and aura have already entered the hearts of the noble ladies in the capital.Which noble lady does not desire to marry such a person, which daughter does not desire to be loved and cared for by General Qin.

As soon as the imperial decree came out, officials with daughters went home one after another to deliver the news, and those without daughters also searched for them from side branches. No one would miss this rare opportunity.

The left servant of the household department, Xie Yuanzhou, hurried out of the palace with a few words of politeness with his colleagues. The servant had already been waiting at the gate of the palace, and when he saw him coming, he hurried forward to greet him.Xie Yuanzhou is only 40 years old. He is tall and burly. Just looking at his face, he is only about 30 years old. He is well maintained. When he saw the servant coming, he frowned and said, "Go home quickly."

After returning to the mansion, there was a housekeeper and others to meet him, and he didn't have time to go to Ci'an Hall to greet the old lady, but hurried to Aunt Zhao's place.

At this time, Aunt Zhao's room was full of joy and laughter, and a delicate voice came out: "Mother, my daughter is still young."

Aunt Zhao said with a smile: "It's not too young, my Zhimian is 13 years old, and I should see each other in the past two years, and then we can make a good marriage for Zhimian."

"Mother~" Xie Zhimian is 13 years old this year. She is pretty, with bright and white teeth. Her eyes follow Aunt Zhao's slightly raised eyes, with a hint of style. She looks even more charming with her emerald green long-sleeved double-breasted trousers. Lively and pretty.She was coquettish with her mother, when she suddenly saw the curtain lift and saw Xie Yuanzhou walking in.

"Daddy is back, and mother will tease me. Daddy has to make decisions for me." Xie Zhimian stood up with a delicate smile, and pulled Xie Yuanzhou's sleeve to act coquettishly.

"Hehe, I heard you two laughing from afar." Xie Yuanzhou sat down next to Aunt Zhao before changing his official uniform.Aunt Zhao held his hand, with a gentle smile on her coquettish face: "It's cold outside, Liu Zhi, hurry up and serve tea to the master."

Xie Zhimian looked at the affectionate appearance of his parents, covered his mouth and stood up with a smile, "Father and mother will talk first, and the daughter will go back first so it won't be an eyesore." He said he wanted to say hello to Aunt Zhao and go out.

"There's no rush to go."

Before he could move, Xie Yuanzhou stopped him and looked around. Aunt Zhao knew that he had something to say and waved her hand to let the servant girls go down. When no one was there, she smiled and said solemnly: "What's the big deal, master?" ?”

"It's not a major event, but it's about the daughter's marriage." Xie Yuanzhou kept a secret, seeing his wife and daughter's appetite, and then continued: "The emperor will hold a triumphant banquet for General Qin later tomorrow, and he can bring his family with him. "

Aunt Zhao is a perceptive person. When she thought about the general's age, she quickly smiled and said, "Master, you want to give Zhimian to General Qin? I heard that General Qin is not an ordinary person. Needless to say, he looks like That aura is enviable, if we had married Zhimian, we might have a higher position in the future."

Xie Yuanzhou nodded, and looked at Aunt Zhao lovingly, thinking the same thing in his heart. Although Qin Jin returned to the court and temporarily lost military power, his prestige was there, and besides, all the countries around Daqi were restless. was sent to quell the chaos.Moreover, the Holy Majesty obviously attaches great importance to her, and the two princes are even more active in wooing her. If her daughter can marry over, it will definitely make him even more powerful, and he can hold his head high in front of the second prince.

He was thinking about it, but Xie Zhimian realized his face shyly, "Daddy, my daughter is still young, and she wants to spend more time with her parents."

"You are not ashamed, your father didn't say that he will let you marry tomorrow." Aunt Zhao scolded.

Xie Yuanzhou laughed loudly, "Oh, my family knows that Mian is worthy of that character."

"Hmph, I don't know how scary that reckless man looks. If his eyes are like copper bells and his looks are scary, his daughter will not marry." Xie Zhimian was pampered by his parents since he was a child, and he can speak whatever he wants.

"Go and have a look tomorrow." Xie Yuanzhou chuckled, thinking of the in-laws he and Qin Yang made many years ago, maybe it can be used this time.

At the end of the second day, Qin Jin went to the palace together with his mother Jiang Shi and Qin Yang. Qin didn't like the banquet in the palace, but Qin Meng wanted to go, but was rejected by Jiang Shi, and Qin Yu was even more unwilling to mess with it. The aunt was not happy, and she refused to go even if she directly said that she had an appointment with someone.

All the way to the palace, many officials and their families have already arrived outside the gate of the palace.Just as Jiang was getting off the carriage, he suddenly heard a charming voice from behind: "Father, isn't the Qin family's aunt in front?"

Jiang looked back, and saw a girl of twelve or thirteen, wearing a light green embroidered embroidered gown, walking gracefully. The boy in her teens beside her was not as bright as the girl, but he was also very handsome. It's so familiar that I can't remember where I've seen it before.

Here Qin Yang has already handed over his hands to greet Xie Yuanzhou, but Qin Jin looked impatient and stood quietly by his side looking at the majestic palace in front of him.
