suspected wife

At dawn, Yun Jin came out from Qiao Mingjin's house, and wanted to go to the stable to set up a carriage.

When he opened the courtyard door, he saw Yue Zhongyao sitting on the threshold with his knees bent and his head buried in a small bundle.

Yun Jin didn't speak, just stared at him, turned around and went to the stable after a while.

Yue Zhongyao got up, glanced into the door, then followed Yun Jin silently with his head down.

The two quickly set up the carriage.

Yue Zhongyao grabbed the whip and sat on the shaft of the carriage, Yun Jin glanced at him and then got into the carriage.

Yun Jin's trip this time was to go to the city to buy things for Qiao Mingjin's family.The family cleaned up for a long time last night before it was considered tidy.

Cups and tea sets, pots and pans, vases and flower pots, altars and pots... but all porcelain can not be used.

Fortunately, the quilt tent can still be used after washing and mending.There was not much damage to grains and miscellaneous grains, but the large vats and jars were smashed.To buy a new one.

If the table and chairs are broken, let the masters in the workshop repair them. If it can't be repaired, let a few masters reprint a few sheets.

But the money must be paid by the Yue family.

Qiao Mingjin wasn't that magnanimous, she made Wu's cheaper.

After getting up early, Qiao Mingjin pushed Mrs. He out of the house and asked her to go to the workshop.

She and Ming Qi should take their time to wash and dry the quilt.There are a dozen or twenty masters in the workshop who need to eat and drink, wash clothes and clean the workshop.At noon, I have to prepare a meal for the handyman and auxiliary workers in the village, and I have to go to the village to buy vegetables and meat in the morning...

She and Xia Shi need to be busy with many things.

Ming Qi and Wan'er were very sensible and got up early.Obediently accompanied Qiao Mingjin to eat the breakfast brought by Xia Shi, and then helped Qiao Mingjin tidy up her clothes and bedding.

Wan'er, a small person, also came forward to help with a little help...

In the middle of the day, Qiao Mingjin and Ming Qi were still washing dirty quilt covers on their well platform.

There was the grunt of a carriage at the gate of the courtyard.

come back so soon?

Wan'er got Qiao Mingjin's order, and casually moved a small bench in the courtyard and ran to open the courtyard door.

Now the gate of the courtyard has to be locked even if the three of them are at home.This morning she also told Yunjin not to forget to buy some big locks.

Zhou Yanqing strode in with Wan'er in his arms.

"Mother, Uncle Zhou is here!" The little thing said with joy.

Qiao Mingjin turned to look.

Sure enough, the servant was walking towards her step by step, holding Wan'er nestled on his shoulder with long arms and long legs.

Qiao Mingjin rolled up her sleeves, her long skirt was rolled up around her waist, and her trousers were rolled up to her knees. Bai Shengsheng's tender arms and calves were clearly displayed in front of Zhou Yanqing.

Zhou Yanqing looked away unnaturally, leaned over and put Wan'er down.

Qiao Mingjin was also a little embarrassed.Fortunately, this is the last time to throw water.After pouring water, just wring it dry and put it on the bamboo pole to dry.

After receiving the cotton towel handed over by Ming Qi, Qiao Mingjin turned her back to wipe off the water droplets on her legs, then put down her trousers and skirt, and put on her cloth shoes.

"Why are you here today? Didn't Manager Zhou come here yesterday?"

Qiao Mingjin turned around and asked him.

Zhou Yanqing glanced at her lap, although her sleeves were still rolled up high.But nothing seemed wrong.The heat on his face subsided a little.

Fang replied: "Well, there are some things."

Qiao Mingjin glanced at him and stopped talking.

Shi Shi and the coachman just came in with big bags and small bags, and replied loudly: "Our grandfather came out before dawn, and he was the first one to leave the city as soon as the city gate opened."

Zhou Yanqing turned her head and shouted: "Speak up!"

Shi Shi shrank his neck and asked Qiao Mingjin in a low voice, "Miss Qiao, where are these things going to be placed?"

"What is it?"

"My grandfather asked us to buy them yesterday. They are all things that can be used at home."

Qiao Mingjin looked over to Zhou Yanqing.Zhou Yanqing felt a little uncomfortable, cleared her throat, and said, "They are all bought for the house. If you buy too much, it will take up space in the warehouse."

Qiao Mingjin was grateful in her heart, smiled, and said to Ming Qi, "Take the stones and put things back."

Ming Qi responded.So she left with an excited Wan'er.

Zhou Yanqing went up to the well platform and saw Qiao Mingjin twisting the cotton cover alone and struggling.He reached out and took it in.

"Let me do it, so I don't have to wet your clothes."

"It's okay. There are spare clothes in the car. How did you twist it? Like this?"

Seeing his clumsy appearance, Qiao Mingjin's sleeves were already wet.

He said, "roll up your sleeves first."

Zhou Yanqing looked at her two sleeves, then put down the quilt cover and rolled up her sleeves.

After one side was rolled up, when the other side was rolled up, the sleeves that had just been rolled up slipped down again.

Qiao Mingjin laughed.

I'm afraid this guy is someone who opens his mouth and stretches out his clothes when he eats.It's okay to wear such fine silk and satin clothes, it's no better than cotton clothes.

Then she took two steps forward and helped him roll up his sleeves.

Zhou Yanqing watched her bow her head in front of her with a demure and indifferent expression.A head of thick black hair exudes a faint and pleasant smell of acacia.

Zhou Yanqing took two deep sniffs, and found the smell even more pleasant.

When the woman raised her head, she said softly: "Okay." Then Zhou Yanqing lifted up his sleeves slightly, took a look, the corners of his mouth curled up, and looked at her.

After what happened yesterday, the woman did not see bitterness or resentment on her face, she was still indifferent, like a bluegrass with water drops all over her body after the rain, she was beautiful and inconspicuous, but it was unforgettable.

With a few strands of messy hair on both sides of her cheeks, Zhou Yanqing couldn't help stretching out her hand...

Qiao Mingjin froze for a moment, and when he was about to approach, she shrank back, leaned over and stretched into the tub, grabbed one end of the cotton sleeve, and handed it to him.

"You can't hold it, I'll twist it."

Zhou Yanqing was slightly disappointed.

But he soon came back to his senses, and tightly held the quilt cover she handed over with both hands.

"so?"

"Yeah. You can't hold it, and I can twist it."

It was Zhou Yanqing's first time doing this kind of work, and she was really not used to it.The falling water droplets quickly splashed on his gold-embroidered and silver-embroidered shoes.

Zhou Yanqing followed Qiao Mingjin's gaze.A look of disapproval, not just a pair of shoes.

Sui said, "No problem."

Seeing Qiao Mingjin struggling to twist the thick quilt cover, the water slid down her Bai Shengsheng's arm to the depth of her elbow, and said: "Hold on well, I'll twist it."

Soon, he followed Qiao Mingjin's example and screwed up.

As expected, he was strong and had an advantage, and the water hidden in the quilt, as he twisted it like this, dripped straight down.The sound is very nice.

Qiao Mingjin laughed: "Very good. I'm afraid I'll have to work an hour or two earlier."

Zhou Yanqing was also in a good mood looking at it.

The two quickly unscrewed some quilt covers.

Zhou Yanqing looked at the empty hand and secretly hated: Why are you moving so fast?Wouldn't it be nice to save some effort and twist slowly?

I can't wait to slap myself.

Next time, next time it will be.Can't help comforting myself.

Qiao Mingjin carried the wooden barrel full of quilt covers and walked to the drying place in the backyard.

Seeing that she was struggling to carry, Zhou Yanqing snatched her over and walked in front with ease.Qiao Mingjin saw it and smiled.Follow closely.

Qiao Mingjin wiped off the floating dust on the bamboo pole, shook off the quilt cover, and spread the quilt cover on the bamboo pole to dry.

"Why don't you grow taller?" Zhou Yanqing watched her worry about her feet, and helped her spread the quilt cover on the bamboo pole while teasing her.

"If I want to be as tall as you, I'm afraid I won't be able to get married." Qiao Mingjin replied with a smile.

Zhou Yanqing glanced at her and said nothing.He turned his head to straighten out the folds of the quilt cover on the bamboo pole.The corners of the mouth curled up.

The two quickly cooperated and tacitly aired a few quilt covers.

Qiao Mingjin looked at the quilt covers of different colors hanging on several bamboo poles.He raised the corners of his mouth very comfortably.

He bent over to pick up the empty barrel and was about to turn around.

Zhou Yanqing took two steps and grabbed her other hand.Staring at her: "Let me take care of you?"

Qiao Mingjin loosened the wooden barrel in his other hand.

Zhou Yanqing quickly picked it up and put the wooden barrel gently on the ground.The other hand reached out to grab Qiao Mingjin's hand again, not letting go.

"Promise me, let me take care of you?"

Zhou Yanqing stared at her with firm eyes.

Qiao Mingjin felt turmoil in his heart.

Long Jiu: "Are you kidding me?"

"I didn't. I was serious."

After finishing speaking, the two stared at each other for a long time, both afraid of missing the slightest bit of emotion on the other's face.

"It's not realistic."

Qiao Mingjin picked up the wooden barrel on the ground and walked to the well platform.

Zhou Yanqing looked at Kong Luoluo's hand.Soon followed.

In the yard, Ming Qi took Wan'er, led Shi Shi and the coachman to move all the things into the wing room.

"Mother. Uncle Zhou sent a lot of things."

Wan'er was very happy, and ran over to pull Qiao Mingjin to the wing to see.

Qiao Mingjin smiled and let her go, letting her daughter's small body lean forward, and pulled her to the wing.

Qiao Mingjin looked at the big bags and small baskets in the wing room, which almost filled the whole room.

There were also several baskets stacked on the ground.

Qiao Mingjin rummaged through the pots and pans, dishes and tea sets, vases and boxes...it was very complete.There are even sewing baskets.They are really things that can be used in daily life.

"Thank you." Qiao Mingjin turned her head to thank Zhou Yanqing who followed.

Zhou Yanqing smiled, took out two packs from a pile of oil paper, handed them to Wan'er and Ming Qi, and said softly: "Take them to the workshop to eat. Didn't a child report to you yesterday? Remember to thank people."

Wan'er nodded happily, put the oil-paper bag in her bosom, turned around and went to grab Ming Qi's hand.

Ming Qi glanced at Qiao Mingjin, who nodded at her.The aunt and nephew went out happily.

Shi Shi looked back and forth between the two of them, and was shocked by Zhou Yanqing's look.

"Go with Zhuzi to unload the cart, and feed the horse along the way."

Stone bowed his head in response, and hurried out.

Qiao Mingjin turned around and closed the door of the wing room, then turned and went into the study next door, found a few hidden tents on the table that she made carefully and gave them to Zhou Yanqing.

"I've already made these few books, take a look."

Zhou Yanqing didn't look at it, took a few ledgers and put them aside, and pulled Qiao Mingjin to let her sit on the low couch.

When she sat down, she stretched out her hands to hold Qiao Mingjin's, wrapping them tightly with her big palms.Qiao Mingjin shrank her hands back.

But couldn't break free.

Zhou Yanqing pulled even tighter and squatted down in front of the low couch.

"I was serious just now, I'm not joking. I know you have suffered a lot this year, struggling alone, trying to live... My heart hurts watching it..."

Qiao Mingjin looked at him blankly.

He heard him say again: "Let me take care of you? Let's go together. I've never been so serious. Promise me, huh?"

The man's voice was extremely gentle, soft and seductive, and it tickled Qiao Mingjin's heart.

The person in front of him was clearly serious.

Qiao Mingjin's vision gradually blurred, and she nodded slowly: "Okay." (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
