Since this time, in the eyes of Zheng Qingchuan, the wife of Governor Xiao is no longer a noble lady who only likes to play cards, but a person who cannot be underestimated, can bend and stretch, at least a person who is very good at acting.In the evening, after listening to Zheng Qingchuan's explanation, Su Mu did not show any surprised expression, and the black in his eyes looked at the grape trellis in the courtyard with a deep thought.It was a gloomy day, and it was dark too early today, and the race had passed the original pace of time.From the corner door of the inner courtyard to the door of the small study, the distance on the eaves corridor Su Mu walked very slowly.Zheng Qingchuan's footsteps matched his footsteps.The maids are far away.So, the two of them were comfortable talking softly.Su Mu suddenly stopped and looked ahead with a smile, because Ah Qing and Ah Yun were walking hand in hand.The rapid change in his expression meant that Su Mu was less and less likely to bring the emotions in the yamen into the house.It's like a piece of steel that has been tempered for thousands of years, but it is getting newer and more shiny.Ah Qing raised his face and smiled: "Brother, you will rest tomorrow, right" Su Mu was relatively too tall, looked down at them, his eyelashes naturally drooped, like an inky waterfall, and said with a smile: "Yes, what are your plans" Ah Qing looked at Zheng Qingchuan, smiled wisely, and said: "We will play with Qiqi tomorrow, brother, can you be the referee Then, we want to go to the street" The morning is the busiest time on the street, and the afternoon happens to be the time when there are fewer people on the street.Su Mu thought about it and agreed.As for what the game is about, he doesn't have to ask.Ah Qing, Ah Yun and Zheng Qingchuan in the family are all lively and willing to take the initiative to tell him countless things, such as now.Ah Yun said: "Qiqi said that he wanted to find a powerful person to teach us how to make plum and green plum jam" Su Mu said: "This is very good, and it is one more thing to pass the time." ”Ah Qing retorted: "It's not to pass the time.It's because we like to eat this," Su Mu smiled happily.Zheng Qingchuan said: "Ah Yun said that she doesn't want to spend too much time embroidering, she only embroiders for a while every day, and she wants to learn to paint.Su Mu, do you agree" Su Mu was a little helpless, in fact, he felt that women's embroidery was a very traditional thing, but he still connived: "I will write to my uncle and ask him to recommend a Danqing master." ”Ah Qing, Ah Yun and Zheng Qingchuan high-fived happily.Ah Qing raised his head and said, "I'm also the same as Ah Yun" Su Mu nodded in approval.Ah Qing and Ah Yun have been favored by the aunts and uncles of the Zheng family since they were children, and children always like to imitate those close to them, so Ah Qing and Ah Yun were influenced by the Zheng family's love of painting, which did not surprise Su Mu.Half a month later, the nurse and Master Du successfully brought Mrs.
Su to Jingzhou.On that day, the letter from the capital also arrived, including Mrs.
Zheng's, Hong Yuejing's, Hefeng's, and Zheng You's.Zheng You didn't seem to like Jingzhou, so he only stayed for two days and left, perhaps because he missed the people in the capital.Zheng Qingchuan handed over the letter from Mrs.
Zheng directly to Ah Qing and Ah Yun to read first.As Ah Qing and Ah Yun gathered to read the letter their aunt had written to them, Zheng Qingchuan opened the letter signed by He Feng.As soon as she unfolded the letter, she smiled.The handwriting on the paper was crooked, as if she had been beaten apart by others, she guessed that it must have been written by Hefeng, and it was estimated that Hefeng's talented husband taught Hefeng to write."
Nurse has good news," Zheng Qingchuan suddenly shouted.The nurse hurriedly ran in from outside the door and said with a smile: "Fifth young lady, what's the good news" Zheng Qingchuan smiled: "Chi Yue will be a mother next year, and you are about to become a godmother" Let Chi Yue and He Feng live a normal and ordinary married life, which is precisely the reason why Zheng Qingchuan left them in the capital, in order to give them more time to get along with their respective husbands."
Great happy event" The nurse smiled, her hands were clasped together, and her feet were a little tendentious.Zheng Qingchuan said: "Nurse, you can prepare a congratulatory gift and send it together when you send the letter back."
By the way, is the old lady still sleeping" As soon as the old lady Su arrived here in the morning, she invited the doctor to check the pulse, and then rubbed some active oil on the joints of the bones, and then rested.People who are in a hurry are generally tired, not to mention that Mrs.
Su is old.The nurse said, "The old lady is still asleep, and there are two maids guarding her." ”Zheng Qingchuan told the nurse about Hefeng's beliefs.The letter said that the business of the shop in the capital was very good, the house was very good, and Mama He was also very good.After hearing this, the smile in the nurse's eyes was like the spring water of the artesian spring, which was endless, and her hands and feet were light, and she happily went out to work.Ah Qing, Ah Yun and Zheng Qingchuan got together again to read the letter written by Hong Yuejing.The handwriting is also crooked, as if it has been beaten apart by others.This is definitely not Hong Yuejing's handwriting.Zheng Qingchuan said with a smile: "Xiao Wujiang has learned so many words so quickly" Ah Yun said: "I think those two little guys, if the big sister comes here to play, it would be good, although it is a little far" A Qing said: "If the eldest brother-in-law is willing to come, there will be no problem." ”Zheng Qingchuan said: "The eldest brother-in-law has tolerance, and it is difficult to go far away. ”Hong Yuejing said in the letter that Hong Mianchang has been in the limelight in the capital recently because of a collection of poems, and there is a sense of pride between the lines.reported the good news first, then the worries, and then wrote that Su Liang was jealous in public, and was snubbed by Hong Mianchang, with sorrow between the lines.Hong Yuejing also asked Zheng Qingchuan if he could write a letter to persuade Su Liang Zheng Qingchuan saw the place where the letter was signed with a helpless mood.It was Hong Yuejing's elegant handwriting, which Zheng Qingchuan recognized.It can be seen that this letter is not a forgery.Hong Yuejing is a very generous relative, easy to get along with, and at the same time more enthusiastic and caring for his brothers and sisters.Zheng Qingchuan liked Hong Yuejing's eldest cousin very much, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that she didn't have the motivation to write to Su Liang.Su Liang was originally prejudiced and estranged from her, not to mention that what she needs to persuade now is the private affairs between husband and wife.If she rashly wrote a letter to mention this, Su Liang might be even more annoyed, feeling that her hand was stretched too long.So, Zheng Qingchuan rejected Hong Yuejing's proposal in his heart.Ah Qing and Ah Yun didn't think about it so much, they were only happy for Hong Mianchang: "Big brother is really powerful, as powerful as his brother" Zheng Qingchuan picked up the other letters, read them through, and then reminded Ah Qing and Ah Yun: "After reading it, you can write a reply as soon as possible" Xiuqiao walked in with her newly made clothes: "Fifth young lady, the cherry blossom pink clothes are ready." ”Zheng Qingchuan looked at the embroidery for a while and said, "I'll try again later."
Xiuqiao, your face is not very good, is it uncomfortable" Xiuqiao shook his head, there were more spots on his face than before, and his expression was still a little dazed.In addition to being delicate in such things as needlework, she can be said to be careless and so-so in other places.Zheng Qingchuan said: "You go back to rest first, and I'll ask Mama Yun to invite a doctor."
Put the clothes on the dresser" "Okay" Xiuqiao put the clothes away, and went out in a daze.Embroidery is a person who has become a pro, only an embroiderer, no longer a maid.In addition to staying in the inner courtyard to do needlework, she would go to the outer courtyard when it got dark.A corner was cut into the outer courtyard, and a wall was built, and a small door was opened, forming a separate courtyard, with two neat rows of rooms, twenty small rooms in all, for the servants who had become relatives to live in.In the afternoon, Mama Yun hurriedly came to Zheng Qingchuan to reply, and said with a smile: "Today's magpies first heard that Chi Yue had good news, but I didn't expect Xiuqiao to have it" Hearing the news of the new life, Zheng Qingchuan was more happy, and said: "Tell the kitchen to stew a tonic soup for Xiuqiao every day."
Oh, what she wants to eat, she can directly say to the kitchen, "Xiuqiao, as an excellent embroiderer, has a relatively high status, and Zheng Qingchuan attaches great importance to her."
Mama Yun asked: "Do you still leave the matter of making clothes to Xiuqiao" In fact, Xiuqiao only helped Zheng Qingchuan, A Qing, A Yun and Su Mu make clothes in the Su family.Zheng Qingchuan said: "The clothes are enough to wear, don't send her a job to let her rest well, I see that her complexion is not very good."
What's more, she herself is usually a person who doesn't pay attention to maintaining her body, and I am a little helpless to take her.Mama Yun, you persuade her" "Okay." ”Mama Yun agreed.Zheng Qingchuan sent another basket of fruits and a plate of pastries to Mama Yun.The other maids saw that Zheng Qingchuan was better at the pregnant embroidery, and their mood was also good, smiling, turning their heads and ears, quietly spreading the good news, after all, the embroidery was the same kind of person as them.Looking at the embroidery at this time, they seemed to see their future.Mrs.
Su slept for a long time this night, and didn't wake up until after dinner.After listening to the maid's report, Zheng Qingchuan immediately went to Mrs.
Su's house.In order to welcome Mrs.
Su, Zheng Qingchuan and Su Mu moved out of the main house as early as five days ago, and gave the west room of the main house to Mrs.
Su to live in, and the east room was temporarily idle, and it was changed into a warehouse where she collected things in disguise.The east room was originally Zheng Qingchuan and Su Mu's bedroom, so she didn't want others to live in it, which can be regarded as a little psychological cleanliness.She and Su Mu moved into the east wing.And Ah Qing and Ah Yun live in the west wing opposite the east wing.She felt that it was quite spacious to live in this way.Mrs.
Su sat in the quilt, not wanting to go to the ground, obviously still tired."
Grandmother, are you hungry" Mrs.
Su shook her head: "The maid said it was dark" turned her head to look at the window: "It's quite bright outside" Tired people wake up, often can't tell the difference between morning and evening, and sometimes even take sunset as morning, once they are older, this problem is even more serious.Ah Yun smiled and said, "Grandmother, if you don't eat dinner with lanterns hanging outside, it will be late at night later" "Oh" Old Madam Su smiled happily, reached out and touched Ah Qing's little face, touched Ah Yun again, and touched Zheng Qingchuan, and then said to Su Mu: "It's so late, you go to sleep first, what's the matter, I'll tell the maid to do it" Su Mu said: "Don't worry."
Grandmother, are you still uncomfortable?"
Old Madam Su shook her head, her expression helpless: "The old bones are like the old chair, it is easy to shake the bones and have been loosened, and it is the same if it is not good." ”said, and smiled again: "I am happy to see that you are all good." ”:
