Scheme of the Official Descendant

The Lei family, which was prominent in Yanbei, now only has two brothers Lei Ting and Lei Zhen.

Twenty-six-year-old Lei Ting became the head of the Lei family.

Because there were no others around, Rong Shi saw that his granddaughter was curious about the Lei family's affairs and told her about the Lei family's period.

This Lei Family Patriarch is considered to be a young talent. He has been in charge of the Lei Family at the age of 18. He has accumulated a lot of wealth for the Lei Family in just a few years, so now it’s not like a dozen or so when he returns to Yunyang City. The Yun family was so shabby a year ago. Of course, the Yun family today is not what it used to be, but when the Yun family moved back from the south, they basically had no financial resources.

When the Lei family first returned to Yunyang City, it would take a lot of time to regain a foothold here. However, the young Patriarch of Lei Ting is superb and outstanding, coupled with the status of the Lei family’s veteran family, the Lei family is in a very short time. Nei re-entered the Yanbei family gate clan.

Rong's words are very optimistic about the prospects of the Lei family.

Ren Yaoqi listened to Rong's narration, but always felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help thinking.

The Rong family has already spoken directly about the Lei family’s inner courtyard: "... The Lei family’s head originally had a house and the original wife, Joe’s, had passed away a few years ago, leaving only one daughter who is only four years old this year, and is now raised by his great-grandmother. This old lady of the Lei family is not too young, and she rarely goes out to socialize. I heard that she is a layman who eats fast all the year round, but recently she has released a message to renew the string for the Lei family’s head."

When others talk about these gossips, they will always give people a sense of gossip, but Rong's babble is gentle and comfortable, not obtrusive.

The reason why Rong Shi said so much is that he wants his granddaughter to learn more about the situation in Yunyang City, so as not to suffer a loss when dealing with it. Not long after the Lei family arrived in Yanbei, most people still couldn't say that they knew the Lei family well, so Rong Shi returned to mention this Lei family in detail.

In addition, Rong Shi continued to talk to her about several other families in Yunyang City, and the tea was changed twice.

Ren Yaoqi understood the grandmother's good intentions, so he listened very seriously. In her memory, she had never had a close moment with Rong's grandmother, but Rong still loved her. Her love is not manifested in the meticulousness of Xi Han and Nuan, but in imparting as much of what she knows as possible.

Drums rang out again, and a lot of handsome maids came in with a basket in each hand, looking for the ladies and wives one by one to ask for prizes.

As in the last ice sports game, it is still betting on which team will win.

It's just that the dragon boats launched were all sent by various families in Yunyang City. For example, the Yanbei Palace, the Yun Family, the Su Family, the Lin Family, etc. all sent their own dragon boats to participate. Generally speaking, each family is a boat that not only supports the dragon boat sent by its own family but also rewards others.

On this occasion, the dragon boat race can actually be regarded as a sport with a fair outcome. The real focus is on participation, and no one is really rushing to win the championship. Because the annual champion is the Yanbei Palace.

So despite the excitement outside, there are not many that really lead the unexpected event, and everyone is busy contacting each other. Ren Yaoqi wasn't very interested in this, only when the maid who was begging for the prize came over, he took out the silver he had prepared and used it as the prize.

Ren Yaoqi sat with Rong Shi for a while, speaking softly in a harmonious atmosphere.

Until the maid, Mulberry, who was guarding outside, ran in and said, "Miss, the red wing girl next to the princess is here, saying that the princess has just boarded the big boat. If you go out, go to the big boat to find her."

The big ship Xiao Jinglin was talking about should be the one Yun Wenting mentioned when he met the Yun family brothers before.

Ren Yaoqi nodded and signaled Mulberry to go back and say that he knew. She didn't leave immediately. She would rather stay here for a while and listen to Rong's allusions from various families in Yunyang City.

Rong's asked: "You know the princess of Yanbei Palace very well?"

Ren Yaoqi thought about it. In fact, she and Xiao Jinglin only met three times in total. To say that they are very familiar with each other, it is not counted, but they get along very well. Having seen intrigue, Ren Yaoqi likes Xiao Jinglin's character.

"I have only seen opportunities with the princess, but they are more congenial." Ren Yaoqi said truthfully.

Rong Shi nodded and was not surprised: "No wonder. Since the princess has invited her, you can go. Don't you have to stay in Yunyang City for a few days? If you are free, go see me and your grandfather. "Rong Shi looked at Ren Yaoqi with a kind smile.

Ren Yaoqi was about to say something, the maid Mulberry, who hadn't been out long before, turned back again.

"Miss, the princess sends someone to invite you to the ship."

Ren Yaoqi couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard this. Didn't Hong Ying just come here before? Moreover, Hong Ying did not say that Xiao Jinglin asked her to find her immediately. Why did Hong Ying leave with his forefoot, and then sent another person?

"Who is here?" Ren Yaoqi asked.

Mulberry said, "It's another girl named Hong Gang next to the princess."

Rong Shi smiled and said, "Go, the scenery on the boat is good. It's your first time to see the dragon boat race, so you can go out and take a look."

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while, but obediently got up and left.

"By the way, Xia Sheng will be back soon. Uncle ** received his letter yesterday." Rong Shi told her before Ren Yaoqi went out.

Ren Yaoqi was overjoyed when he heard the words. Xia Sheng went south this time to check Father Han for her. I don't know if there is any news. Originally according to the schedule, Xia Sheng should have returned, but he temporarily sent a letter back saying that it would be delayed for a while, so he postponed the date of returning to Yunyang City.

After Ren Yaoqi said goodbye to the Rong family, he saw the red silk waiting outside. Seeing Ren Yaoqi, Hongwang bowed, and then took Ren Yaoqi to the riverside without saying a word.

On the bank of the river not far from where the boat was parked before, I heard a colored boat full of colored silk, which looked like those official boats in Kyoto. It was not small and had two floors. Ren Yaoqi used this kind of boat in his last life.

When he reached the ship's side, someone set up a ship ladder to come over, and Hong Ling helped Ren Yaoqi to board the ship. Xiao Jinglin's maidservant should have also studied martial arts. This red silk maid had a very stable bottom. Because the boat ladder was not wide, she turned her back when she got on the boat with Ren Yaoqi.

As soon as Ren Yaoqi got on the deck of the ship, he heard a familiar voice

"Miss Five."

In a blink of an eye, Ren Yaoqi saw that the person who set the ladder for them was Dongsheng.

Ren Yaoqi nodded and smiled at him: "Where is the princess?"

Since Dongsheng is here, the second son of Xiao should also be here.

"Miss Ren Wu, please come with your child." Dongsheng quickly led Ren Yaoqi.

The cabin in the middle of this ship was originally a room by room, but now the blocks in the middle have been removed, so the entire cabin has become a big flower hall.

When Ren Yaoqi walked all the way, he heard the laughter and the sound of silk and bamboo from inside, which was very lively.

However, Dongsheng did not take Ren Yaoqi to the big flower hall, but took Ren Yaoqi to the upper floor after a half circle.

"Miss Fifth, I have turned over the local chronicles in the palace these days." Dongsheng said softly suddenly.

Ren Yaoqi paused, then moved on: "Have you found any clues?"

Dongsheng shook his head, with doubts on his face: "The small county records for nearly a hundred years have been turned over, but the family of Yanbei surnamed Qu found a few households, but they didn't look like the one you mentioned."

Ren Yaoqi was disappointed when he heard this, but nodded and said, "Fortunately, you have suffered."

Dongsheng caught a glimpse of Ren Yaoqi's expression, but he felt a little guilty and felt that he had not helped.

But at this time he is not good to say more, because the place has arrived.

The upper layer is not as big as the first layer, and the bulkheads are all carved hollow, very airy. But compared to the floor below, it's quieter here.

Dongsheng stepped forward and opened the bead curtain for Ren Yaoqi. The sound of colliding water drops was very pleasant.

As soon as Ren Yaoqi entered, he saw Xiao Jingxi and Yun Wenting sitting opposite each other by the opposite window, and they were playing chess.

Xiao Jinglin sat at the corner of the corner, drinking tea while looking out the window, indifferent to the match between the two.

Compared with the bustle below, this place is very quiet, it seems to be isolated from all the noise outside, and it is a world of its own.

As if feeling something, Xiao Jingxi, who was holding a chess piece in his hand, first looked up, because half of his face was against the light, Ren Yaoqi could not see his expression, only felt that he nodded here. . Leading the Young Master Yun also tilted his head.

"Yaoqi." Xiao Jinglin whispered at Ren Yaoqi, motioning for Ren Yaoqi to go over and sit with her.

Ren Yaoqi bowed his knees to the side of Xiao Jingxi and Yun Wenting, and then walked to the short group where Xiao Jinglin was sitting.

Seeing Ren Yaoqi sitting down and looking around, Xiao Jinglin said: "We came early, and I'm afraid there will be more people here, so we will get off the boat when that happens."

Before Xiao Jinglin's voice fell, she heard Young Master Yun's gentle voice: "If the princess doesn't like it, I will tell others not to come up."

"No need." Xiao Jinglin still spoke concisely and concisely.

Young Master Yun over there didn't say anything, he still focused on the game.

Ren Yaoqi only sat down. Someone came in outside and said a few words in the ear of Master Yun. Because there are few people here, you can hear a few words even if you lower your voice, so Ren Yaoqi vaguely heard "Wu "Miss" these words.

Master Yun looked normal over there and waved to make people retreat, and then calmly struck Xiao Jingxi a few hands before saying: "Some guests are here, I'll go down and make arrangements."

Yun Wenting got up and went out.

After a while, Ren Yaoqi heard the sound of getting up again, and then Xiao Jingxi walked over.
