The red building is so arrogant

Chapter 424 Birthday Prelude [Part [-]]

This evening.

It was rare for Mrs. Xu to dress up once, and she waited outside the gate early, and welcomed her husband and son in beamingly.

When she was in the room, she realized that Lai Wang and Jiao Shun didn't have any smiles on their faces, instead they had sad faces.

Xu's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly grabbed her husband's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter? Is it possible that Brother Shun's promotion is getting dirty again?!"

"Yellow is not yellow."

Laiwang smiled bitterly and said, "But this time being promoted may not be a good thing."

"How do you say that?"

Mrs. Xu just felt baffled: "It's okay to say that the transfer is idle, and now the errands of the Secretary's Office are also part-time. Why is it not a good thing for my son to be promoted?"

Laiwang and Jiao Shun looked at each other, and both father and son shook their heads and sighed in unison.

Mrs. Xu became anxious, and grabbed her husband's ear and asked, "What's going on, you should have explained it clearly to my old lady!"

"Don't, don't, I said, can't I say it!"

Laiwang hurriedly begged for mercy, and didn't dare to continue to play tricks: "You should have heard about it? This time, Brother Shun was able to be a sacrificial wine for engineering school, all because of the emperor's insistence. I heard that the civil servants in the Manchu Dynasty almost They all knelt down and begged the emperor to take it back, even if they insisted on establishing an engineering school, the post of sacrificial wine should be held by someone who has read poetry and books and is highly respected, but the emperor insisted on not agreeing!"

"Isn't this a good thing?!"

Mrs. Xu smiled when she heard this, and clapped her hands: "Anyway, Brother Shun has never been favored by scholars. Now that the Long Live Lord is so hard at promoting him, we must treat this official well in the future, and we must not embarrass the Long Live Lord. Let's not let those scholars see our jokes!"

"Ah~"

Laiwang shook his head again and sighed: "It's good that the matter ends here. The problem is that in the afternoon, Mr. Sui Ge once again handed over a sign to the palace to persuade him, but in the end..."

"What happened?!"

Xu raised her heart to her throat again: "Could it be that the emperor has withdrawn his order?"

"That's not it."

Laiwang shook his head, just as Mrs. Xu let go, he heard him say again: "But Sui Ge's remonstrance was fruitless, so he resigned in a fit of anger!"

"what?!"

Mrs. Xu was also dumbfounded for a moment, this old Sui Ge was the chief assistant of the court, and he resigned from office because of his son's job as an engineering student? !

Now she finally understood why Jiao Shun was promoted to an official, but both father and son looked dejected - the trivial matter of being promoted from the sixth rank to the fifth rank forced the chief assistant away. Sui Ge's old asylum's henchmen, why don't they hate their own son to death?

In the past, it was just public outrage, but now it's personal enmity!
"This……"

Mrs. Xu was puzzled and said, "What is he trying to do? The dignified Chief Assistant wants to resign because he is a fifth-rank official?"

"It probably violated Sui Ge's taboo."

At this time, Jiao Shun said lazily: "Before Lord Sui entered the cabinet, he had been serving as a sacrificial wine for the Imperial Academy for seven or eight years. It is rumored that he often told people that the most proud thing in his life was not being a court official. Shoufu, but when he served as a sacrificial wine in the Imperial College, he cultivated a group of pillars of the country."

To put it bluntly, it is the set of 'ashamed to be with the other generation' and 'you deserve the surname Zhao'.

After a pause, Jiao Shun said again: "Mother, what shall we have for dinner tonight? I was so surprised in the yamen that I didn't even finish my lunch. I'm so hungry right now."

After finishing speaking, seeing Laiwang turned his head to look at him, he said helplessly, "The old man wants to resign, so what can we do, I can't go and resign too?"

"do not!"

"no!"

Although Xu and Laiwang knew that he was joking, they still vetoed it with one voice.

"It's not over."

Jiao Shun spread his hands together: "Anyway, I'm settling down for the Gong Xue Jijiu, what kind of old Shangshu, who loves so and so! At worst, the soldiers will come to block, the water will come to cover, and besides, won't the emperor support it?"

Seeing her son regained his former vitality, Mrs. Xu also smiled again, and said repeatedly: "That's right! Qingwen, Qingwen, let the kitchen serve food quickly, our family is very happy today!"

Seeing that the mother and son are both in a generous posture, Laiwang shook his head and smiled wryly. He is usually shrewd and capable, but when he encounters major events, he tends to look forward and backward. There is no son who 'overthrows' when the chief assistant came.

That night.

Laiwang is using wine to drown his sorrows, Xu is talking about drinking, Jiao Shun... It should be regarded as a mixed bag.

Anyway, my father and I drank a lot of wine, and even Mrs. Xu was a little drunk in the end.

Siqi, Xiangling, Yuchuan, and Hongyu moved out together, and finally carried Jiao Shun back to the East Chamber.

Xiang Ling and Xiao Hong were taking off Jiao Shun's boots at the end of the bed. Yu Chuan saw Jiao Shun's mouth opening and closing, as if he was about to say something, so he rushed forward and asked, "Would you like sober soup, or a drink?" wash……"

"Wow~"

He never thought that Jiao Shun would turn sideways abruptly, lying in her arms and throwing up violently.

Yu Chuan screamed so loudly that even Xing Xiuyan in the south room was alarmed, and hurried over to check what happened, regardless of her confinement.

After asking the cause and effect clearly, Xing Xiuyan breathed a sigh of relief, stopped the chess player who wanted to scold Yu Chuan, and said softly: "Hongyu, quickly take your sister to the west chamber to wash, here are Xiangling and Chess is enough."

Yu Chuan apologized embarrassingly, and then ran back to the west wing with a bitter face.

Back in the dormitory, she sighed as she took off her clothes. It was supposed to be her turn to serve the bed today, but it just happened to catch up with Uncle Gao Sheng again. For this reason, she took a special shower in the afternoon and changed her clothes from the inside out.

Who would have thought...

The outer ones are fine, but there is no new one for the inner clothes for a while. After thinking about it, Yu Chuan suddenly realized that he still has two special-purpose war robes. Don't care about this much.

The next day, it was the second day of August.

Yu Chuan washed all the little clothes she had accumulated early in the morning, and just dried them in the southwest corner of the yard, when she saw Si Qi coming out of the east chamber with a pair of shoes in her hands, and saw that she was wiping her hands with a towel, so she ordered: "Yu Chuan, you send the shape of these shoes to Miss Lin—the garden is full of people now, come back quickly after delivering the things, don't run around!"

Seeing Siqi bossing her around, Yu Chuan couldn't help curling her lips secretly, thinking that she hasn't become an aunt yet, but she speaks harder than her aunt. If she really becomes an aunt, there will be no way for others to survive in the future.

But Yuchuan didn't dare to provoke Siqi after all.

I can only take the shoes and rush to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion with a stomach full of emotions.

However, after arriving at the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, she was unable to see Lin Daiyu. I heard that she was dragged by her sisters to rehearse the birthday program at the Ouxiangxie.

Yuchuan had no choice but to give the shoes to the maid who stayed behind.

After leaving the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Yuchuan originally planned to return to Jiao's house the same way, but thinking of Siqi's domineering attitude, he became rebellious, and secretly thought that she wouldn't let me wander around, so I decided to go for a stroll!
So he walked aimlessly along the stream.

Who would have thought that while walking, the situation would suddenly change suddenly. Seeing the dark clouds engulfed by the strong wind, covering the sky and the sun, Yu Chuan knew something was wrong, and hurriedly ran towards the nearest Quicui nunnery.

As a result, as soon as she ran halfway, the pouring rain poured down, and it took her a hundred steps to pour her heart out.

Arriving at Changcui Nunnery, Yuchuan squeezed into the door opening and couldn't help scolding Siqi, but unexpectedly, a man with a parasol came out from the left and right of the temple gate, and was very surprised when he saw Yuchuan: "Jade bracelet?"

Yu Chuan was also taken aback: "Sister Caixia, why are you here?"

The person who came was Caixia, the eldest maid beside Mrs. Wang, and Caixia explained: "The old lady passed by here yesterday, and said that it is not good if the incense is cut off in the temple, so today the wife specially brought us here to offer incense. , planning to invite a few more nuns to live in after the old lady’s birthday is over.”

"Is your wife here?"

Yu Chuan subconsciously tightened his collar, with a look of anxiety on his face.

"Just as I was about to leave, it was stopped by the rain."

Caixia pointed to the parasol in her hand: "There is only such an umbrella by my side, my wife told me to go back and call for someone to bring the rain gear. Who would have thought that I would run into you as soon as I went out."

As she spoke, she looked at the soaked jade bracelet, and said, "Come in with me first, and I'll bring you some clothes later, or you'll catch a cold."

"No, no, don't bother my sister, it's the same when I go back and change it!"

Hearing that she needed to change clothes, she still had to change clothes under Mrs. Wang's eyes. Yu Chuan jumped three feet high as if she had been bitten by a snake, and wanted to rush into the rain like this.

Caixia hurriedly pulled her back, and said anxiously: "Are you crazy?! You really want to sit down and get sick..."

"Caixia, Caixia!"

At this time, Caiyun in the temple raised his voice and asked, "Madam, let me ask who is outside?"

"It was Yuchuan who happened to come here to take shelter from the rain."

Caixia also raised her voice and replied.

After a while, I heard Caiyun say again: "Madam, please bring her in to talk."

Yu Chuan's face was ashen for a moment, but she didn't dare to ignore Mrs. Wang's call - after all, even though she had arrived at Jiao's house, my mother was still under the name of Rong Guo Mansion.

So he had no choice but to bite the bullet and followed Caixia into the main hall.

But she said Mrs. Wang saw her timid look, and thought she had prejudice against her because of her sister's death, so she couldn't help sighing: "Oh, it's so pitiful, Caixia, you can bring her a suit of clothes by the way... ..."

"No no no!"

Yu Chuan hastily refused, saying repeatedly: "Your maidservant has something important to do, you must go back and report it quickly, so I won't bother Sister Caixia!"

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang became more and more convinced that she was bearing a grudge against herself.

But Yuchuan is Jiao Shuntong's maid after all, she can't say anything more, so she waved her hand helplessly and said: "Forget it, Caixia, give her the umbrella and let her go back."

"But we..."

"If we don't see us going back at home, it's probably time to find us."

Seeing Mrs. Wang's firm attitude, Caixia had no choice but to hand over the parasol to Yuchuan.

"Thank you ma'am, thank you ma'am!"

As if being pardoned, Yu Chuan hurriedly saluted Mrs. Wang deeply, took the parasol and fled through the door.

But he didn't want to make a mistake in his busy schedule, so he stumbled as soon as he rushed out of the corridor, and his whole body was flattened in the mud, and he slid three or four feet away.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang hurriedly ordered Caixia and others to help her, and she also chased to the corridor to inquire about how the jade bracelet fell and whether she was injured.

Yu Chuan was lifted up, rubbing her chest wanting to cry without tears, and was about to say something, but found Mrs. Wang's gaze was fixed on her chest, she subconsciously lowered her head, only to find that the buttons on the front were gone , half of the collar hangs loosely, revealing...

The sexy little dress Mrs. Wang once wore!
