Chapter 126
This golden plaque made the Qi family a big hit, and unlike before, both Qi’s father and Liu family no longer hid them, but with great fanfare to wish everyone knew about it. .
In fact, they wanted to celebrate like this when Qi Saburo got the small three yuan.
It’s just that the first emperor had just passed away. Even though the emperor had pity for the people and left a legacy to tell the world that he would only let the people mourn for three days, but those with a little bit of insight would not be able to deal with it. That’s great, so I just closed the door and had a drink at that time, and it wasn’t very lively.
Later, Qi Jialian opened a shop and Qi’s father restrained his sons. He didn’t make too much publicity for fear that it would arouse the attention of others and stir up trouble in the shop.
After all, businessmen do business with smiley faces, and they are about personal fate. You can know how much money you have. There is no need to shout all over the world. It will inevitably make people hate and affect your reputation.
However, this time, it was really showing up.
A gift from the emperor, the emperor said that our family aspirations are high and clean, who else would dare to say nothing?
Take a look, take a look, this decent is naturally not afraid of others.
The running water table has been set for several days, no matter if you have a friendship with the Qi family or not, you will come to congratulate you on that day, and eating a meal is considered a good bond.
Although Ye Jiao didn’t go to the front yard, people often came in her yard.
Early that morning, I saw Dong and Zheng brought along.
Because Zheng was a magistrate, Ye Jiao still remembered what Liu had taught before and wanted to get up to see the courtesy. However, Zheng took a few steps to hold him back and only heard Zheng say: “Don’t, Jiao Niang, you are now The most important thing is to avoid these.”
Xu Bao straightened his back when he saw them, his round eyes were grunting, and he looked towards Dong’s back, “Where is Brother Huzi?”
Dongs are both new mothers, and they have always liked children, especially Xu Bao’s meaty, crisp and sweet speech, and those with good-looking eyes have softened hearts, which is naturally rare. , Walked two steps quickly and picked up Xu Bao in his arms, and smiled and said: “Brother Hu Zi didn’t come today, next time I must bring him to Xu Bao, OK?”
Xu Bao is no longer the one who was easy to talk about and fooled before. Hearing this, he looked at Dong and stretched out his fleshy hand: “Retractable.”
Dong’s stunned, Ye Jiao said next to him: “Last time Tiezi promised to bring snacks to Xiaosu, the two of them pulled the hook, and he learned it when he saw it.”
For adults, this kind of agreement is very naive, but for Xu Bao, it seems extremely solemn.
Ye Jiao also specifically exhorted: “If you get caught Chunlan, you must remember to bring Huzi next time. Xu Bao is very smart and will write it down.”
Xu Bao has always been someone who can only hear others boasting about himself. He raised his head and said crisply: “Xu Bao, smart!”
Dong Shi held back his smile and stretched his little finger to him.
Xu Baoren’s small hands were short and fingers were so short that he couldn’t catch it, so he grabbed it, then shook it lightly, and nodded, as if he was particularly satisfied.
The Zheng on the side looked at it and couldn’t help but cover his mouth with a veil and smiled: “Jiao Niang’s child is really clever, and it will definitely be a pillar of the country.”
When Xu Bao heard this, he immediately turned his head, a little at a loss: “It’s not cold.”
Zheng laughed again, but patiently explained: “That means Xu Bao will become a high official in the future.”
Xu Bao came to the spirit: “Yes, be the prime minister and take care of your father!”
As soon as these words came out, there was laughter in the room immediately, Xu Bao was still a little angry, his little buttocks twisted and twisted, seemingly unhappy with them.
This is Xu Bao’s big ambition, he is very serious.
But when Ye Jiao put Xu Bao next to him again and fed him with custard, Xu Bao immediately forgot the rhetoric just now and waited with his mouth open with a smile.
Zheng and Dong sat aside, looking at Xu Bao, Dong was a little envious: “This kid is so good-natured, very well-behaved, where is like the one in my house, behaved and honest outside, going home to be a mastermind.”
After changing to others, I was afraid to say a few words about the bad things of her own children, but Ye Jiao smiled and replied: “Tiger is lively, Xu Bao is obedient, everything is fine.”
Zheng heard the words and smiled.
People are often like this. If you like someone, then everything she says is right. If she gets bored, everything is wrong and she can’t find the right place.
Now Zheng keeps in mind Ye Jiao’s kindness to save her daughter. She also likes Ye Jiao’s temper to catch up with her. Naturally, it is pleasing to the eye. He said: “Yeah, it’s all good, all good kids, and hurry Since your baby is similar in age, you will study in the same place in the future.”
As soon as Ye Jiao heard this, she looked down at Xu Bao who was eating custard, thinking about what Qi Yun said before that he wanted to teach him to read.
Dong was happy to play with the child. Xu Bao stood up after eating the custard and wanted to ride the pony, but the child could not move around after eating, so Dong volunteered to hug Xu Bao and go for a walk. Bao also didn’t recognize the birth, so he obediently let her hold him, and the two of them went out.
Ye Jiao looked at Zheng, “Madam, do you want to read together?”
“The Jiao Niang doesn’t need to be so distracted, just call me Wanying from now on.” Zheng said with a smile on his face, said in a gentle voice, “Ordinary people who study are sent to private schools, and those with a little money will invite their husbands. Teach at home.”
Please sir.
Ye Jiao remembered that Fang had invited a gentleman to teach Shishi before, and Shishi now reads with her husband every day.
But his own Xu Bao is young, so I’m afraid I can’t get together with Shishi.
Little Ginseng had never thought about this before, but when she suddenly raised it, she couldn’t figure out a way, and a little entanglement appeared on her face.
Upon seeing this, Zheng said hurriedly: “Well, if you want to enlighten the children, I know a lot of good gentlemen, don’t say that you can also get the ones in the county and the capital. Naturally, I can help you.”
Ye Jiao feels Zheng’s sincerity. People who are clear-hearted tend to see people the most transparent. Little Ginseng has always been intuitive in making friends.
If Zheng had been polite and perfunctory to her before, but after coming this time, he was full of sincerity. Ye Jiao naturally took the sentiment and smiled and said, “Thank you Wanying, come and eat red bean cake. .”
Zheng squeezed a piece with a smile and put it in his mouth.
After eating one piece, Dong came back holding Xu Bao.
As soon as he walked in, Xu Bao twisted his body and got off the ground. The little guy ran to Ye Jiao’s feet with his short legs, hugged Ye Jiao’s calves, and asked for credit with a high face: “Mother, I have a gift. give you!”
Because of her big belly, Ye Jiao couldn’t bend to hug him, so she just reached out and touched the top of the little guy’s hair, and asked, “What is it?”
Xu Bao gave a big smile: “Xiao Hei, fluffy, make a kite!”
As soon as he said this, the corner of Xiaosu’s mouth shook slightly.
She figured it out, her young master is really the second young master’s son, and he hasn’t seen it yet. The grudges are exactly the same, but they have a very good memory, and they can remember everything in their heads.
His own little black is afraid that he will be bald for a while for the milk cake.
Ye Jiao didn’t see Xiao Su’s expression, just smiled and praised Xu Bao.
As for Xiao Hei, his hair grows fast and it doesn’t get in the way.
At this moment, Zheng’s smiling eyes lifted slightly, and he saw a jade ruyi on the window sill.
Na Yu Ruyi looked at the whole body and white, not big, but only by looking at the appearance, he knew it was a treasure.
Zheng glanced briefly, without moving his expression, lowered his eyes, and coaxed Xu Bao to play with them.
Even if the child is full of energy, it is easy to get tired. Just after turning so big, Xu Bao’s head became sleepy before long, and Ye Jiao’s eyelids began to fight.
When Dong and Zheng saw this, they got up in time to leave, and the two went to the front hall together to find their mates.
As a county magistrate, Shi Tianrui had to come up with flattery even if he came in plain clothes. He was an upright person, but he was not good at socializing. He had a moderate amount of alcohol. He only had a few drinks before he got on the face.
When he went back with Zheng, his cheeks were slightly red, and he looked as if he was drunk, but his consciousness was still clear.
As soon as he got on the carriage, Shi Tianrui asked Zheng in a soft voice, “Can you inquire?”
Zheng shook his head, and his voice was flat: “I know Xiang Gong, you think the Qi family is related to the Heavenly family, but I’m not easy to ask this. Jiao Niang is a pure-hearted mind, and I may not refuse to say it, but because Jiao My mother is kind, so I can’t ask directly, so as not to worry about these messy things.”
In fact, Shi Tianrui discussed the current situation with Zheng before coming, and the more he talked about it, the more he felt that this Qi family was different.
Others only knew that they would be unlucky if they didn’t get along with them, but Shi Tianrui felt that the Qi family might be more expensive, or else the two counties and one magistrate would not even fall.
However, he obviously couldn’t inquire about it, so he wanted to let the Zheng family explore his mouth from the back house.
For another person, the Zheng clan had already circulated the truth, it was not difficult for her, but looking at Ye Jiao’s pure and clear eyes just now, even if his mind was as deep as the Zheng clan, he couldn’t ask.
That was a good girl, and Zheng couldn’t bear to confuse her.
Shi Tianrui also heard Zheng’s meaning, but with a smile on his face, he reached out and patted the back of Zheng’s hand: “I didn’t expect the lady to be so fearless and fearless, and now she can meet someone who is submissive.”
Zheng’s face blushed, and he pushed him, but his mouth said: “You are the first one to be softened, otherwise I won’t run with you to this place far away from the emperor.”
Shi Tianrui knew that Zheng was telling the truth, she was the daughter of the lord, she was delicate and noble, and it was not easy to be willing to follow her, and she could even make Shi Tianrui even more moved for her own planning.
But Zheng lowered his voice and whispered, “It’s just that I saw something.”
“what?”
“I had a lot of friends when I was in my boudoir. Empress Meng had a good relationship with me at the time. She had a favorite Jade Ruyi ornament, and I saw it in her house.”
As soon as he said this, Shi Tianrui straightened up and looked at Zheng in surprise.
Zheng looked at him calmly, and gently held Shi Tianrui’s hand: “Shang Gong, I don’t understand official affairs, but I only understand one thing. If you don’t advance, you will retreat. If you want to go higher Go, besides ability, there are opportunities, now…you should have a plan.”
Shi Tianrui took a light breath, then shook Zheng’s hand back, and whispered: “Don’t worry, lady, I have my own plan.”
A few days later, a copy of Zhezi who participated in Shao Zhizhou’s power for personal gain and Qi Yun’s letter to Ye Pingrong entered the capital.
When summer passed and autumn came, when the ginkgo was yellowing, Ye Jiao heard that the prefectural government had changed people.
For Shao Zhizhou, Ye Jiao only remembered that he was a lean person who gave a golden plaque to her family. The demotion of him did not touch Ye Jiao.
The person on the left and right doesn’t like his ears, and the little ginseng doesn’t bother to care about him. He just thinks it’s really not easy to be an official. Today I change this one tomorrow.
She couldn’t help thinking about whether she should change her goal for Xu Bao in the future. It seemed dangerous to be an official.
After the heat, the baby in Ye Jiao’s belly was nearly eight months old. Fortunately, the weather was cooler. Even Liu said that the child came at the right time, and it would not be difficult to sit in a cooler month.
It’s just that Ye Jiao’s belly is a bit bigger, even Xu Bao is cautious, only occasionally daring to gently touch her mother’s belly with her hand, and even lie on it, muttering to another Xu Bao inside. Let him be good, don’t always arguing that A-niang can’t sleep at night.
And when Qi Yun said that when he let him sleep for a while, Xu Bao rarely made noise, instead he nodded obediently and hooked up with Ye Jiao: “After Xu Bao came out, my mother would sleep with Xu Bao.”
He always insisted that Ye Jiao was also pregnant with Xu Bao, and Ye Jiao didn’t correct it, just pulled his finger to coax the child away.
But Xu Bao was not there at night, and Ye Jiao didn’t sleep peacefully.
From time to time, I would groan twice, either with backache or leg pain.
It’s just that it’s not Ye Jiao that is tired, but Qi Yun. Qi Erlang is now used to sitting up quickly when his wife is making a sound, rubbing her waist and pinching her feet, often rubbing against Ye Jiao’s belly. Whispered: “Don’t bother your mother, behave, let you endorse every day after the trouble.”
Even Qi Yun didn’t know that this threat would work, but it was better to say it than not to say it.
That night, Ye Jiao frowned slightly again, and before Qi Yun got up to help her, she saw Ye Jiao open her eyes.
When his eyes were facing each other, Qi Yun leaned forward and gently kissed her on the forehead: “What’s the matter?”
The little ginseng rubbed his eyes, then hugged him in a daze, muttering: “I’m dreaming.”
“Nightmare?”
“It’s not a nightmare, it’s just weird.” Ye Jiao buried her face in his arms and whispered, “I dreamed that you took Xu Bao to dig ginseng, dug two back, and brought a bunch of fruits. ”
People are always dreaming strange, nothing, Qi Yun gently touched her back, and asked, “Isn’t this good?”
Ye Jiao was a little aggrieved: “You have eaten all the fruits, not one for me.”
Qi Yun couldn’t help but smile, hugged her tighter, kissed her face and kissed, and said slowly: “Don’t worry, I will give you whatever good things I have. I used to be, now is, and will be in the future.”
Ye Jiao was very coaxing, smiled and kissed him when she heard this, then closed her eyes again and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, when Qi Yun woke up, Ye Jiao hadn’t gotten up, so he put on his clothes and washed them out before going to the study to find some books.
As soon as I was discharged from the hospital, I saw Tiezi waiting at the door.
Before he asked, Tiezi walked a few steps and said to Qi Yun: “Second Young Master, the newly appointed Master Zhizhou invited the wealthy squires nearby and also posted a post to our mansion.”
