Lady of Fortune, Jiao Niang

Qi Ming didn't expect that he would go home well, and he would be stopped at the door of his house.

He didn't get out of the car, but first raised the curtain and whispered: "Six thoughts, what happened? Who is that?"

After such a long period of exercise, Liusi's symptoms of stuttering have improved a lot, but his tongue is still easy to knot in an emergency. At this moment, he slowed down his voice as much as possible and replied: "Three young masters, listen, listen to that woman Said that she is a friend of the young master's...friend, who had nowhere to go, came, and then came to join the young master."

As soon as he said this, Qi Ming's sweat was frightened.

After being an official for one year, Qi Ming was no longer the stunned kid back then.

In the court, he was blessed by the emperor in front of him, and treated by the prime minister after him. Qi Ming's official career was much smoother than ordinary people, but he can still see many disturbances from the courts, which can always make people grow up quickly. .

Regarding the affairs of the court, Qi Jia Saburo is becoming more and more mature. As for the affairs of men and women, he is especially concerned about the love of jade flowers.

In ordinary gatherings, Qi Ming pays attention to keeping a distance from other women, and does not raise his eyes when he speaks.

Although Qi Ming still doesn't know that his emperor's righteous brother had ventilated with the Qi family a long time ago, and even settled the marriage with his parents during the Chinese New Year, but in Qi Ming's heart, he recognized Meng Zhilan, not the fifth girl. Don't marry.

Qi Jiaerlang has a temperament that just admits death when he sees a girl.

Even if some officials in the DPRK who didn't know their inside information wanted to tell Qi Ming, some even wanted to send a beauty to him as a concubine, Qi Ming refused, and he was very clean.

Nowadays, I have finally stabilized the relationship with the Mengwu girl, and the errands in the Privy Council have also stabilized. As a result, a big "little gift" came from the sky, and a woman was lying in front of the car. How could people not think too much?

Liu Si also saw that the man really frightened his master, and said: "San Young Master, I, I will go and see..."

"Wait." At this time, a slightly deserted voice came out.

As soon as Qi Ming turned his head, he saw Xiao Yuanbai, who was opposite him, looking at him indifferently.

About being fooled, Qi Ming lost his square inch. Only now did he remember why he was riding in a carriage instead of a sedan chair today, because he had thought to invite his colleague Xiao Yuanbai back home as a guest. Just ride in the same car.

Previously, Qi Ming was named Tanhua, and Xiao Yuanbai was the number one champion on the list with him.

If we talk about the relationship between the top three, Qi Ming and Guo Chengji are closer, not only because Guo Bangyan has a hearty temper, but also because the Guo family is the family of the uncle of the princess Huaning, and Qi Ming is also a relative relationship. Both of them stood firmly on the emperor's side, and it was normal for them to communicate more closely.

However, Xiao Yuanbai was different. He came from the Xiao family and was an extremely wealthy gateway. Xiao Yuanbai himself had always been deserted and arrogant, and rarely interacted with people, so Qi Ming did not have deep contacts with him.

But now Xiao Yuanbai is the clerk's secret decree, and Qi Ming is the clerk's deputy decree. They are closely related and have many contacts when doing official business in the yamen. Qi Ming wanted to get close to him, so that he could work together in the future.

Who knows that it was hard to take this step and mustered up the courage to invite someone home to be a guest, and in the end there was such a disturbance at the door.

Qi Ming was a little embarrassed, so he said: "Lord Xiao laughed, I will go down and deal with it." He said that he had to push the door.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yuanbai grabbed him and yanked him back with force.

Qi Ming was already thinner, and he fell off guard and sat back on the soft cushion, then looked at Xiao Yuanbai in a bit of amazement.

Then Qi Ming listened to Xiao Yuanbai's words: "This woman must be asking for you. Most of them have bad intentions. If you come forward, no matter whether you have a discord with her, you will inevitably end up making rumors, which is not good for your reputation. ."

Qi Ming hadn't thought about this, he was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "How can Master Xiao know so clearly?"

Xiao Yuanbai glanced at him and said faintly: "In the capital, this kind of thing is not new. If you encounter more, you will get used to it."

This was frank, and Xiao Yuanbai was just telling the truth.

He was born in the Xiao family, and even in this golden capital, he is a rare high school. A talent like Xiao Yuanbai has to face all kinds of women since he was a child. After that, I'm familiar with it, so I'm naturally more alert.

He was just a reminder today, and didn't think much about it.

But in Qi Ming’s view, Xiao Yuanbai’s move made him very grateful, and it also made Qi Ming feel that this Xiao Zhuangyuan was not really as arrogant as he was said to be, but he was a little deserted. Still very good.

Therefore, Xiao Yuanbai saw Qi Ming grinning gratitude to him, and said sincerely, "Thank you."

It was just a trivial matter that caused this person to be so sincere, and Xiao Yuanbai was really surprised.

He stared at Qi Ming for a look, and then arched his hand at Qi Ming: "It's nothing, don't worry about it." Then he looked out through the car door and said lightly, "It is more important to solve the immediate matter first."

Qi Ming nodded and said a few words to Liusi, Liusi responded a few times, and then walked towards the woman in the white dress that month.

And Miss Zhu Si, who was lying on the ground, felt that her body was going to be stiff.

She could faintly hear the voice in the carriage, even though the dialogue between Xiao Yuanbai and Qi Ming could not be heard clearly, but only the scattered words were enough to make Miss Zhu Si think.

Obviously, Qi Ming didn't remember her long ago, which made Miss Zhu Si a little panic.

In fact, the fourth girl Zhu is not enamored with Qi Ming, but after weighing the pros and cons, she feels that Qi Ming is a good place to rely on.

Her father was on duty in the Privy Council, and he was even higher than Qi Ming’s official position, but anyone could tell that Qi Ming is now respected by the sacred, but he can be directly appointed to the Privy Council. Limited.

Miss Zhu Si had been in contact with him a few times, but most of them were in a hurry at a poem party or a tea party. Each time Qi Ming seemed to be a stranger who had just met her.

Fortunately, Miss Zhu Si was patient, thinking that she would be able to cling to it slowly, and she was also very confident. She felt that Qi Ming would have remembered it long ago because of her conditions, but she pretended not to know how to catch it.

Originally, Miss Zhu Si was thinking about making plans slowly, but she didn't know that something happened at home.

The collusion between the Zhu family and the two kings was stabbed out, and Master Zhu was dismissed from office, and his eyes would bring harm to his family.

The Heavenly Family did not immediately clean up them, but gave them some time to find their way. The Zhu family’s daughters stayed behind closed doors, and all those who did not leave the pavilion hurriedly set up marriage, hoping to get out early.

Miss Zhu Si heard that her family had appointed a small official for her to be released, and that she could stay away from the capital city as soon as possible by deciding on a marriage.

Although it is not as good as before, but I am kind and never too involved in his family. As long as he keeps a low profile, most women will not be ridiculed excessively. Moreover, this expatriate official has an old relationship with Zhu’s family. She is the daughter of a criminal minister and treats her badly, and she can be the mistress of the house, which is already an excellent condition.

But she was not reconciled.

She is a concubine in the house. She is exquisite in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she looks good. If she is released, when can she return to Beijing? How can she withstand the misery and hardship in remote places?

So Miss Zhu Si's eyes fell on Qi Ming again, taking advantage of the family's attention, she sneaked out and squatted at the door of Qi Ming's house to block Qi Ming's frame.

As she thought, Qi Ming was a little insightful, as long as she begged softly and talked about past friendships, she would be able to make it.

Even if Qi Ming can't make up his mind now, Miss Zhu Si is not afraid, as long as he can make some noise, he will marry if he doesn't want to marry.

But Qi Ming's indifference at the moment made Miss Zhu Si no idea, so she lay on the ground. Even in the spring, her posture still made her feel cold, but these were not enough to resist the coldness in her heart.

Miss Zhu Si's head is messed up, no matter what thoughts or determinations she made when she came, after all, she is just a teenage girl and came here alone. How could she have so many ideas?

So before Liu Si came over, Miss Zhu Si had broken her silver teeth and made up her mind--

Even if you can't be the main room, you can be a concubine, as long as she can not leave the capital, she will be happy.

Thinking of this, Miss Zhu Si felt extremely wronged. She didn't even think how embarrassing Qi Ming would be when she stopped her. She only felt that she had surrendered her status as a concubine and was extremely wronged.

Without waiting for Six Thoughts to speak, she propped up and shouted at the carriage like weeping blood: "San Lang, I am the fourth girl from the Zhu family. We have met several times before and looked across the curtain at the poem meeting. , Sit and enjoy tea by the west pond, have you forgotten?"

Qi Ming was a little at a loss, he really didn't remember, but when Xiao Yuanbai looked over with suspicion, Qi Ming waved his hand vigorously to show his innocence.

Liu Si did not stutter at all at this moment, and at the critical moment, he forgot about the stuttering problem. For fear that Miss Zhu Si was blindly yelling and tarnishing his master’s reputation, Liu Si’s voice was also raised for a while, saying: "This girl, I See you are full of anger when you speak, and you don't have a serious problem when you want to come. Please give in and don't block the road."

Miss Zhu Si hid her tears with her veil, she didn't even look at Six Thoughts, and said to herself: "Now my family is going to be defeated. My parents abandon me and my future is uncertain." She raised her head and said in her voice. They were all crying, "I just ask you to take me in. Whether you are a wife or a concubine, I am also happy to be a maid."

As soon as he said this, Liu Si frowned. Obviously, the little book boy hadn't seen someone who couldn't understand people like this.

Qi Ming in the carriage was stunned. Obviously he had never seen such a battle. There were not many women he had contact with. Whether it was his mother or sister-in-law, they were all very reasonable and faceless. People, not to mention the fifth girl Meng, in his heart the fifth girl is made of jade, the most precious.

Today, Miss Zhu's behavior is really eye-opening for Qi Ming.

And Xiao Yuanbai, who had been silent on the side, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "I don't know how to behave."

Qi Ming hurriedly looked over and asked generally for help, "Brother Xiao, I...what should I do?"

Xiao Yuanbai didn't notice that this person had changed his name to himself. He just said, "Don't show up, find someone to gag her and drag her away, as far as she can go."

Qi Ming hurriedly responded, and sent someone to spread the word.

When Miss Zhu Si saw someone coming to catch her, she immediately stepped back.

The tears just flowed out to make people love and affection, but now that Qi Ming is not eating, the fourth girl Zhu is really red, angry and anxious.

It was because of Qi Ming’s attitude that she was unsettled, and she also knew that what she had just said fell out of her identity. She was afraid of being laughed at when she spread it out. She was also afraid of losing her square inch, and her voice rose a little: "Qi Ming, You are really ruthless!"

Qi Ming finally couldn't hold it back, and whispered: "Let her say good and bad things, she is really capable."

Xiao Yuanbai glanced at Qi Ming, and felt that Qi Ming was unlucky. However, Qi Saburo’s aggrieved appearance was completely different from his usual dignified appearance in Yamen. Xiao Yuanbai cocked his mouth, but immediately He chuckled and sat down tightly without squinting.

Liu Si was afraid that she would be noisy and yelling to attract people, and immediately said to the young men on both sides: "Go over, cover her mouth, drag... drag away."

Miss Zhu Si got up from the ground, ignoring the dust on her body, she just stared and said: "I see who dares to touch me."

After all, Xiao Si is a man, not very good at starting, hesitated while looking at each other.

At this moment, Ye Jiao walked over with Xiaosu.

What happened just now was a long story, but because Miss Zhu Si had always been talking to herself, it didn’t take much effort before and after. Ye Jiao could hear a sentence or two when she walked over, and she probably understood what this person was thinking. .

And the name of Miss Zhu Si finally evoked Ye Jiao's memory. She had met Miss Zhu Si in Shi's orchard before, and that was the woman who had asked herself to teach her to throw pots.

At that time, Ye Jiao felt that this person wanted something and didn't like it very much. Now, looking at this person, I am afraid that she would have targeted her Saburo early.

But Ye Jiao knew about the marriage between Qi Saburo and Meng Wu girl, so naturally they wouldn't let them grow up.

The ordinary small ginseng will certainly not interfere with others, but Qi Ming is from her own family. She wants to protect her family back and forth. She walks in and out and says: "Xiao Su, go and help."

Xiao Su responded, tugged his sleeve and walked over.

Xiao Su nowadays is no longer the little hairy girl like bean sprouts at the time. She is young, she has been squeezed recently, coupled with eating well, she has a lot of slim figure and a lot of strength.

At the beginning, she was able to take the vine to beat the maid who wanted to hook up with Qi Yun, and now she can roll up her sleeves and twist Miss Zhu Si.

Miss Zhu Si also recognized Ye Jiao, and she looked a little flustered, but when Xiao Su grabbed her hand, Miss Zhu Si burst into tears and couldn't break free. She could only say to Ye Jiao: "Let me go, let go. open……"

Ye Jiao didn't say a word. She didn't bother to say anything to people who didn't care, but Xiao Su stared at her and said, "If you were able to walk by yourself just now, why would you let me pull you?"

Miss Zhu Si did not expect a maid to come and scold herself, her throat tightened immediately, and the fact that what happened today was completely different from common sense, made Miss Zhu Si a little unprepared.

She has good looks and good knowledge, even willing to be a concubine. Who can not be tempted as long as it is a man?

In the end, Qi San was not only unmoved, but also joined his sister-in-law to twist himself away. What is the truth! Why is Qi family different from others!

Miss Zhu Si said loudly while struggling: "I will fight for my own future, what's wrong?"

Ye Jiao finally looked at her, little Ginseng’s forever clear eyes with some confusion, and asked, "Why are you struggling for your future, why are you blocking Saburo’s car? What’s wrong with Saburo? He has never done anything. Why must I be with you?"

Miss Zhu Si:...

This question came to the point, and Miss Zhu Si couldn't think of how to reply. She could only continue to push Xiaosu, crying constantly.

Ye Jiao regretted that she didn't bring a few more women today, but she didn't take too many people when she went to the palace to see Queen Meng. She seemed a little stretched right now.

At this moment, six or seven women suddenly rushed over, grabbed the hands and feet of Miss Zhu Si, and covered her mouth with a veil, and pressed them directly to the ground!

The sudden change made Ye Jiao startled and subconsciously wanted to call someone. She saw a woman smile and approached Ye Jiao and whispered to Ye Jiao: "Mrs. Qi, we are from Meng's residence." Then, the woman-in-law showed Ye Jiao the sign of Meng's Mansion.

Ye Jiao blinked and asked, "Who asked you to come?"

"In response to Mrs. Qi, the master of the old slave is the fifth girl." The woman's voice paused slightly, and her voice became softer. "It is not easy for the fifth girl to come forward today, and I hope that Mrs. Qi will not tell the third master Qi it is good."

As soon as he said this, Ye Jiao nodded and took a step back.

In her opinion, the marriage between Meng Wu girl and Qi Ming had already passed the emperor's front. Now that the fifth girl came out to defend Qi Ming, Ye Jiao would naturally not interfere.

And the smiling lady turned her head and no longer smiled, and said coldly, "Take it away."

Someone carried the sedan chair and quickly stepped into the alley. Several women took Miss Zhu Si and tied her with a rope, threw her into the sedan chair and drove away.

When everything was stable, Ye Jiao looked at the carriage and saw Qi Ming who was poking her head out.

Qi Saburo felt that those women were brought by Ye Jiao, so naturally he didn't ask much, just jumped out of the carriage and bowed to Ye Jiao: "Thank you for your help."

Ye Jiao wasn't greedy for gong, she wanted to say it clearly, but thought of the woman's words just now, so she swallowed it back.

And Xiao Yuanbai on the carriage also walked down and bowed to Ye Jiao.

Seeing that there are guests here in Qi Ming, Ye Jiao didn't wait much, just smiled at Qi Ming: "After a while, you will be free and come back for a meal. Your brother and several children are thinking of you."

Qi Ming immediately responded with a bright smile.

Ye Jiao took Xiao Su back to her carriage and headed towards Qi Mansion.

When she got home, Ye Jiao sent her three sleeping children to the wing to take care of her, and she went back to the bedroom.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Qi Yun sitting at the table, as well as the copper pot on the table. There were a lot of dishes with vegetables and meat on the side. The plates were of different colors, and they looked very lively when placed together.

Ye Jiao was still a little worried, but when she saw the copper pot, she burst into laughter, her eyes were sparkling, and she ran to wash her hands with the pancreas before she could speak.

Qi Yun wrote down the book, walked over to hand Ye Jiao a cloth towel, and said in his mouth: "I just got a piece of fresh donkey meat. I remember you like it, so I let someone cut some to make a pot."

When the little ginseng heard it, he turned his head and kissed Qi Yun's face with a smile on his brows. Then he remembered and asked, "Can the children eat it?"

Qi Yun pulled her to the table with a gentle voice: "Donkey meat is hot and difficult to digest. They can't eat it like this. I ask them to chop up some finely and stew the porridge. They still drink some porridge. Yes."

Ye Jiao nodded when she heard the words, but kept her eyes on the copper pot. After sitting down, she took the chopsticks and waited excitedly for the soup in the copper stove to boil.

After eating a few chopsticks meat, Ye Jiao remembered and said to Qi Yun: "Just now Hui Niang told me that the emperor intends to give you ten shops."

Qi Yun was holding the mushrooms and putting them into the pot. Hearing the words, he turned to look at Ye Jiao, and asked, "The storefront in the capital?"

"Yes."

Qi Yun was quiet for a moment, and then whispered: "This is a thank you gift."

Ye Jiao was a little puzzled: "If it is a thank-you gift for saving Hui Niang, there is already a pill book that can save your life, why are you giving these shops again?"

Qi Yun put the mushrooms in Ye Jiao's bowl, and said lightly: "This is a thank you gift for helping him."

Previously, Chu Chengyun said that he would give the Qi family a golden plaque, so he sent 20 guards along the way to protect him. Soon after those guards left, the two kings and relatives all fell off the cliff and died, plus the ten shops that came out of thin air. It is hard to think that there is a connection.

However, Qi Yun never cared about royal family affairs, and would not say anything to cause Ye Jiao to worry, so he didn't mention a word, only the channel: "Taste this, the shrimp **** just mashed with fresh shrimp meat."

Ye Jiao clamped one in his mouth, only feeling the fresh fragrance, and smiling while eating.

This dinner was extremely enjoyable. Although shabu-shabu is not as delicate as an ordinary dish, it is extremely flavorful.

When the table was removed, Ye Jiao touched her stomach, exhaled contentedly, and muttered: "After the eldest brother comes back, we have to have a meat-shabu with him. By then Huaning will probably be able to have confinement. ."

Hearing her mention Ye Pingrong, Qi Yun knew that Ye Jiao still remembered, and said, "Don't worry, with your eldest brother's ability, you will be able to win a big victory."

Ye Jiao smiled and said, "Hui Niang also said that."

Qi Yun said again: "Before he left, I gave him a lot of pigeons. I think it will be useful."

As soon as he said this, Ye Jiao looked at her husband in surprise.

Those pigeons were specially trained by Qi Yun in order to contact the caravan. Each pigeon is extremely expensive, fast, and accurate. Training them doesn't know how much Qi Yun's mind was abolished.

Now that it can be taken out to Ye Pingrong, this is much more reliable than a word of comfort.

Ye Jiao couldn't help but stretched out her hand to take Qi Yun's arm, and went to kiss him on the face.

Qi Yun tilted his head and whispered softly: "Here too."

So Ye Jiao obediently leaned over and kissed the other cheek, and then laughed, holding the man's neck and not letting go.

The two got together for a while, and someone came to report that the children were awake, and Ye Jiao asked them to take them to feed the porridge, and play with the children. When they were put to sleep, it was already Yue Shangliu. Shoot.

Both Qi Er and his wife were a little tired when they lay on the bed. Ye Jiao yawned and said, "I don't know when Saburo will come over for dinner, the fifth girl from the Meng family is watching him closely."

Qi Yun heard that something was wrong, so he took Ye Jiao's shoulder and asked softly, "What happened?"

Then Ye Jiao explained the farce in front of Qi Ming's door to Qi Yun in detail.

When Qi Yun finished listening, his brows frowned first, then loosened, and then frowned soon.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ye Jiao said: "What's wrong?"

Qi Yun shook his head and said slowly, "No, there is nothing wrong with it. Girl Meng Wu is quick-witted. It's best to gag people early and take them away. The Fourth Girl Zhu who wanted to come was thrown back to Zhu's house."

Ye Jiao was puzzled: "To the Zhu family? They will definitely go back to protect their daughter. Will they still have to find someone to send the person back to Saburo?"

"No." Qi Yun said categorically, "The Zhu family is now in a state of failure, and relying on the emperor to have time to find a way out for his family, the daughter to be married is not only the girl of Zhu Si, if they dare to climb Saburo, then The fourth girl of Zhu’s clamor today that she would be a concubine will inevitably spread. By then, the other Zhu’s daughters are afraid it will be difficult to marry, and they dare not."

Ye Jiao didn't expect this level, but now it was suddenly realized by Qi Yun that she nodded, thinking that being a human being is not easy, and that she has new knowledge every day.

But she looked at Qi Yun with a pensive expression, so she raised her upper body slightly, pressed her finger between the man’s eyebrows, and flattened his slightly frowning eyebrows. Then she smiled and said: "Since there is nothing wrong, Xiang Gong pays. worry about what?"

Qi Yun brought Ye Jiao into his arms and covered the quilt. Then he said: "I was thinking, Saburo is still young, and next time he comes back, I will talk to him about being a human being. I can't count on others every time. "

Ye Jiao leaned her head on the man’s heart, and yawned, her voice soft: "It’s also a coincidence this time. The fifth girl suddenly came out and scared me...Speaking of how the Meng family came here. So fast?"

Coming soon? I'm afraid it was Meng Wu's girl who kept people staring at Qi Ming's house without relaxing for a moment.

For another person, I’m afraid I might feel that Ms. Wu is so thoughtful and jealous at her young age, but Qi Yun feels that this marriage has been decided well. In the future, my siblings will not only have scheming, but also have the means. My stupid brother can have such a The lady is really a blessing from her previous life.

But just when Qi Yun wanted to talk to Ye Jiao, as soon as he lowered his head, he saw that Ye Jiao had fallen asleep. He didn't say much, put his arms around Ye Jiao and closed his eyes, and soon fell into the black sweet dreamland.

The following days were smooth, with peach blossoms in full bloom, apricot blossoms in full bloom, and Qi's courtyard was especially lively.

Ye Jiao asked Ye Jiao to leave a lot of peach petals, not only for food, but also mashed and mixed into the hair oil. The taste was sweet and fragrant, which Ye Jiao liked.

When the peach blossoms and apricot blossoms are gone, it is already early May.

That night, as soon as Qi Yun and Ye Jiao rested, Xiao Su hurried over through the window and said, "Second young lady, someone has come to report that your Royal Highness Princess has started."

The author has something to say: Ye Jiao: Look, is Huahua pretty?

Ruyi: good-looking!

Ning Bao: Can you eat it?

Ruyi: Eat Ruyi too!

Xu Bao: I know how to eat, see brother you are fat

Ning Bao: [Pinch Xu Bao Meat]

Xu Bao:...
